Timely Performance Time is of the essence as to the performance of the obligations required of the respective parties under this Agreement.
Non-Performance No failure or delay in performance, whether in whole or in part, by either Gatherer or Shipper shall be deemed to be a breach hereof (other than the obligation to pay amounts when due under this Agreement) when such failure or delay is occasioned by or due to a Force Majeure Event.
Assist Performance Seller shall exercise its reasonable best efforts to cause to be fulfilled those conditions precedent to Buyer’s obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby which are dependent upon the actions of Seller and to work with Buyer to make and/or obtain any necessary filings and consents. Seller shall cause Split-Off Subsidiary to comply with its obligations under this Agreement.
Seller’s Performance (a) All of the covenants and obligations that Sellers are required to perform or to comply with pursuant to this Agreement at or prior to the Closing (considered collectively), and each of these covenants and obligations (considered individually), must have been duly performed and complied with in all material respects.
Buyer’s Performance (a) All of the covenants and obligations that Buyer is required to perform or to comply with pursuant to this Agreement at or prior to the Closing (considered collectively), and each of these covenants and obligations (considered individually), must have been performed and complied with in all material respects.
Due Performance The Shareholder shall have performed and complied with all the terms and conditions required by this Agreement to be performed or complied with by it before the Closing.
Excused Performance If either Party is rendered wholly or partially unable to perform its obligations (other than payment obligations) under this Agreement due to the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, such Party will be excused from the affected performance obligation (other than payment obligations), provided that:
KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS (a) The Custodian and the Funds may from time to time agree to document the manner in which they expect to deliver and receive the services contemplated by this Agreement. The parties agree that any such key performance indicators (hereinafter referred to as “KPIs” or, individually as a “KPI”) shall be agreed upon in writing by the parties and shall be reflected in one or more schedules to this Agreement. The Custodian and the Funds acknowledge that any failure to perform in accordance with KPIs shall not in and of itself be considered a breach of contract that gives rise to contractual or other remedies provided that such failure may be a breach giving rise to contractual or other remedies if it is persistent and not remedied after consultation. Nothing in this Section 11 shall modify any party’s applicable standard of care under this Agreement; nor shall any meeting or discussion among the parties regarding KPIs be construed to prevent a party from pursuing any remedy otherwise available to it pursuant to this Agreement.
Events Excusing Performance Neither party shall be liable to the other party for failure to perform any of the services required herein in the event of strikes, lock-outs, calamities, acts of God, unavailability of supplies or other events over which that party has no control for so long as such events continue, and for a reasonable period of time thereafter.
Not Impair Performance Buyer shall not take any intentional action that would cause the conditions upon the obligations of the parties hereto to effect the transactions contemplated hereby not to be fulfilled, including, without limitation, taking or causing to be taken any action that would cause the representations and warranties made by any party herein not to be true, correct and accurate as of the Closing, or in any way impairing the ability of Seller to satisfy its obligations as provided in Article VII.
