Certain Rules Relating to the Payment of Additional Amounts (a) Upon the request, and at the expense of the Borrower, each Lender and Agent to which the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to Subsection 4.10 or 4.11, and any Participant in respect of whose participation such payment is required, shall reasonably afford the Borrower the opportunity to contest, and reasonably cooperate with the Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any Non-Excluded Tax giving rise to such payment; provided that (i) such Lender or Agent shall not be required to afford the Borrower the opportunity to so contest unless the Borrower shall have confirmed in writing to such Lender or Agent its obligation to pay such amounts pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) the Borrower shall reimburse such Lender or Agent for its reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and disbursements incurred in so cooperating with the Borrower in contesting the imposition of such Non-Excluded Tax; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing no Lender or Agent shall be required to afford the Borrower the opportunity to contest, or cooperate with the Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any Non-Excluded Taxes, if such Lender or Agent in its sole discretion in good faith determines that to do so would have an adverse effect on it.
Transfers Generally Tenant shall not assign, transfer, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise transfer this Lease or any interest therein, nor sublease the whole or any part of the Leased Premises, nor shall this Lease or any interest hereunder be assignable or transferable by any process or proceeding of any court, or otherwise (each of the foregoing being a "Transfer"), without in each case first obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Any such Transfer or transaction undertaken without Landlord's prior written consent shall be null and void. In determining whether to grant consent to a proposed Transfer, Landlord may reasonably consider any relevant factor, including but not limited to the experience and business reputation of the proposed assignee, sublessee, or transferee in operating its business; whether the use of the Leased Premises following the Transfer is similar to that of Tenant, or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and appropriate for a first-class high rise office building in the Bellevue Central Business District; whether the other party to the proposed Transfer is a person with whom Landlord is presently negotiating for a lease of space in the Building or in any other building owned by an Affiliate of Landlord; whether the other party to the proposed Transfer is a governmental agency or any party by whom any suit or action could be defended on the ground of sovereign immunity; notwithstanding that Tenant and/or others remain liable under the Lease, whether the proposed assignee, sublessee, or transferee has a net worth, and financial strength and credit record, satisfactory to Landlord (provided that if the financial condition of the proposed assignee, sublessee, or transferee is at least equal to the net worth of Tenant or Guarantor (whichever is greater) at the time of this Lease it shall be satisfactory to Landlord); whether use of the Leased Premises by the proposed assignee, sublessee, or transferee will not violate or create any potential violation of any laws; whether the type and quality of the business to be operated or likely to be operated by the proposed assignee, sublessee, or transferee is consistent with the image of a first-class office building and whether it would be considered inappropriate for such an office building (provided that Tenant's use is deemed to be an appropriate use and business); and whether Landlord's consent might result in a breach of any other lease or agreement to which Landlord is a party. No Transfer shall relieve Tenant or Guarantor of any liability under this Lease or Guarantee of Lease. A Transfer includes, without limitation (and the following shall be deemed to be deemed a "Transfer"): (i) a consolidation or merger of Tenant; (ii) a change in the ownership or voting rights of more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the issued and outstanding stock of any corporate tenant; (iii) any sublease, assignment or transfer which would otherwise occur by operation of law, merger, consolidation, reorganization, transfer or other significant change in corporate or proprietary structure; (iv) the sale, assignment or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, with or without the specific assignment of this Lease; and (v) a change in control in any partnership tenant; provided, however, the foregoing shall not be considered Transfers requiring Landlord's consent so long as Tenant or Guarantor is an entity whose outstanding stock is listed on a recognized security exchange, or if at least 80% of the voting stock of Tenant or Guarantor is owned by another entity, the voting stock of which is so listed. The acceptance by Landlord of any amounts following any transaction prohibited hereunder shall not be deemed to be a consent by Landlord nor shall the same be deemed to be a waiver of any right or remedy of Landlord hereunder. Consent to any such Transfer shall not operate as a waiver of the necessity for consent to any subsequent Transfer. If Landlord's consent is requested for a Transfer, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease with respect to that portion of the Leased Premises for which such consent is requested, at the proposed effective date of such assignment, sublease or transfer, and enter into the relationship of Landlord and Tenant with the proposed assignee, subtenant, or transferee based on the rent (and/or other compensation) and term agreed to by such assignee, subtenant or transferee and otherwise upon the terms and conditions of this Lease. In connection with any proposed Transfer, Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with fully executed copies of all documents and instruments related to the proposed Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord's prior consent to a Transfer to an Affiliate of Xxxxx Xxxxx, Inc. shall not be required provided: (i) the Transfer shall only be effective as long as the Affiliate receiving the Transfer is and at all times during the Lease Term remains an Affiliate of Xxxxx Xxxxx, Inc.; (ii) neither Tenant nor Guarantor is released or relieved of any liability or obligations under this Lease or the Guarantee of Lease, or both, and each expressly reaffirms the foregoing to Landlord in writing; (iii) Tenant is not in default under or in breach of this Lease; and (iv) Tenant notified Landlord in writing of the Transfer to an Affiliate at least ten (10) days prior to the Transfer.
Special Rules Relating to the Preparation of Tax Returns All Tax Returns that include any members of the Newco Group or Vornado Group shall be prepared in a manner that is consistent with the Tax Opinion Representation Letter and the Tax Opinion. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, all Tax Returns for which Vornado is responsible under Section 3.1(a) shall be prepared (x) in accordance with elections, Tax accounting methods and other practices used with respect to such Tax Returns filed prior to the Distribution Date (unless such past practices are not permissible under applicable law), or (y) to the extent any items are not covered by past practices (or in the event such past practices are not permissible under applicable Tax Law), in accordance with reasonable practices selected by Vornado, provided such practices would not adversely affect the qualification of Newco as a REIT for any Post-Distribution Period.
Application of Other Payments Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.15, prepayments of the Revolving Facility made pursuant to this Section 2.05(b), first, shall be applied ratably to the L/C Borrowings and the Swingline Loans, second, shall be applied to the outstanding Revolving Loans, and, third, shall be used to Cash Collateralize the remaining L/C Obligations; and, in the case of prepayments of the Revolving Facility required pursuant to clause (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) of this Section 2.05(b), the amount remaining, if any, after the prepayment in full of all L/C Borrowings, Swingline Loans and Revolving Loans outstanding at such time and the Cash Collateralization of the remaining L/C Obligations in full (the sum of such prepayment amounts, cash collateralization amounts and remaining amount being, collectively, the “Reduction Amount”) may be retained by the Borrower for use in the ordinary course of its business, and the Revolving Facility shall be automatically and permanently reduced by the Reduction Amount as set forth in Section 2.06(b)(ii). Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit that has been Cash Collateralized, the funds held as Cash Collateral shall be applied (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any Defaulting Lender that has provided Cash Collateral) to reimburse the L/C Issuer or the Revolving Lenders, as applicable. Within the parameters of the applications set forth above, prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans and then to Eurodollar Rate Loans in direct order of Interest Period maturities. All prepayments under this Section 2.05(b) shall be subject to Section 3.06, but otherwise without premium or penalty, and shall be accompanied by interest on the principal amount prepaid through the date of prepayment.
Remittances Generally All payments by any Lender to Agent shall be made by the time and on the day set forth in this Agreement, in immediately available funds. If no time for payment is specified or if payment is due on demand by Agent and request for payment is made by Agent by 11:00 a.m. on a Business Day, payment shall be made by Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. on such day, and if request is made after 11:00 a.m., then payment shall be made by 11:00 a.m. on the next Business Day. Payment by Agent to any Lender shall be made by wire transfer, in the type of funds received by Agent. Any such payment shall be subject to Agent’s right of offset for any amounts due from such Lender under the Loan Documents.
Certification of Adjustments Whenever an adjustment is made as provided in Sections 11 and 13 hereof, the Company shall (a) promptly prepare a certificate signed by its Chief Executive Officer, its President or any Vice President and by the Treasurer or any Assistant Treasurer or the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Company setting forth such adjustment and a brief statement of the facts giving rise to such adjustment, (b) promptly file with the Rights Agent and with each transfer agent for the Preferred Stock and the Common Stock a copy of such certificate and (c) mail a brief summary thereof to each holder of a Right Certificate (or, if prior to the Distribution Date, to each holder of a certificate representing shares of Common Stock) in accordance with Section 26 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the failure of the Company to give such notice shall not affect the validity of or the force or effect of or the requirement for such adjustment. The Rights Agent shall be fully protected in relying on any certificate prepared by the Company pursuant to Sections 11 and 13 and on any adjustment therein contained and shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any such adjustment unless and until it shall have received such certificate. Any adjustment to be made pursuant to Sections 11 and 13 of this Rights Agreement shall be effective as of the date of the event giving rise to such adjustment.
Certain Reduction of Payments by the Company (a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any payment or distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (a "Payment"), would be nondeductible by the Company for Federal income tax purposes because of Section 280G of the Code, then the aggregate present value of amounts payable or distributable to or for the benefit of the Executive pursuant to this Agreement (such payments or distributions pursuant to this Agreement are hereinafter referred to as "Agreement Payments") shall be reduced to the Reduced Amount. The "Reduced Amount" shall be an amount expressed in present value which maximizes the aggregate present value of Agreement Payments without causing any Payment to be nondeductible by the Company because of Section 280G of the Code. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, if the Reduced Amount is zero and it is determined further that any Payment which is not an Agreement Payment would nevertheless be nondeductible by the Company for Federal income tax purposes because of Section 280G of the Code, then the aggregate present value of Payments which are not Agreement Payments shall also be reduced (but not below zero) to an amount expressed in present value which maximizes the aggregate present value of Payments without causing any Payment to be nondeductible by the Company because of Section 280G of the Code. For purposes of this Section 16, present value shall be determined in accordance with Section 280G(d)(4) of the Code. Any amount which is not paid in the taxable year in which it was originally scheduled to be paid as a result of the postponement thereof pursuant hereto shall be payable in the next succeeding taxable year in which such payment will not result in the disallowance of a deduction pursuant to either Section 162(m) or 280G of the Code; provided, however, that all postponed payments shall be placed in a Rabbi trust or similar vehicle for the benefit of the Executive in such a way that the amounts so transferred are not taxable to such person or deductible by the Company until payment from such vehicle to the Executive is made. In the event a payment has been made to the Executive, but then disallowed as a deduction by the Internal Revenue Service and return of the payment is required into the trust, said payment to the Executive shall be treated as a loan and said payment to the trust shall be treated as repayment of said loan. The Company shall not pledge, hypothecate or otherwise encumber any amounts held in the trust or other similar vehicle for the benefit of the Executive hereunder.
Certification of amounts A notice which is signed by 2 officers of a Creditor Party, which states that a specified amount, or aggregate amount, is due to that Creditor Party under this Clause 21 and which indicates (without necessarily specifying a detailed breakdown) the matters in respect of which the amount, or aggregate amount, is due shall be prima facie evidence that the amount, or aggregate amount, is due.
Rights of Holders to Receive Payment and to Convert Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Security to receive payment of the principal of and interest on the Security, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Security and this Indenture, to convert such Security in accordance with Article 4 and to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates or the right to convert, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the Holder.
Application to all Forms of Relief This Waiver and Release of Claims applies to any relief no matter how called, including, without limitation, wages, back pay, front pay, compensatory damages, liquidated damages, punitive damages for pain or suffering, costs and attorney’s fees and expenses.
