Proposal of Corrective Action Plan In addition to the processes set forth in the Contract (e.g., service level agreements), if the Department or Customer determines that there is a performance deficiency that requires correction by the Contractor, then the Department or Customer will notify the Contractor. The correction must be made within a time-frame specified by the Department or Customer. The Contractor must provide the Department or Customer with a corrective action plan describing how the Contractor will address all performance deficiencies identified by the Department or Customer.
Proposal Proposal means any information supplied by or on behalf of the insured, deemed to be a completed proposal form and medical questionnaire and other relevant information that the insurer may require.
Acquisition Proposals Except as contemplated hereby, the Company shall not (and shall use reasonable efforts to cause its officers, directors and employees and any investment banker, attorney, accountant, or other agent retained by it not to) initiate, solicit or encourage, directly or indirectly, or knowingly take any action to facilitate, the making of, or engage in any negotiations or discussions concerning, any proposal or offer to acquire all or any significant part of the business and properties or capital stock of the Company, whether by merger, purchase of assets, tender offer or otherwise (an "Acquisition Proposal"), or provide any non-public information concerning the Company to any third party in connection with an Acquisition Proposal. The Company shall immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any parties conducted heretofore with respect to any of the foregoing. In the event the Company receives an Acquisition Proposal, it shall, subject to any confidentiality obligations imposed upon the Company in connection with such Acquisition Proposal, promptly (and in any event within 24 hours) inform Parent as to the receipt thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing shall prohibit the Company from (a) furnishing information to, participating in discussions and negotiations directly or through its representatives or entering into an agreement relating to an Acquisition Proposal with, any third party (including parties with whom the Company or its representatives have had discussions on any basis on or prior to the date hereof) who makes an unsolicited proposal or offer to the Company or makes an unsolicited request for non-public information about the Company (pursuant to appropriate confidentiality agreements), which proposal, offer or request did not result from a breach of the first sentence of this Section 5.7, if the Company Board determines in good faith, after receiving advice from its financial advisors and independent legal counsel at a meeting of the Company Board, that such action is required for the Company Board to comply with its fiduciary duties under applicable law, (b) taking and disclosing to its stockholders any position, and making related filings with the SEC, as required by Rules l4e-2 and 14d-9 under the Exchange Act with respect to any tender offer or (c) taking any action and making any disclosure which the Company Board determines, after receiving advice from its financial advisors and independent legal counsel at a meeting of the Company Board, is required to be taken or made under applicable law (including, without limitation, laws relating to the fiduciary duties of directors), provided that at least 48 hours prior to the entry into or announcement of an intention to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal, the Company shall have provided written notice to Parent advising Parent of its intention to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal and specifying the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal.
Superior Proposals Notwithstanding anything to contrary set forth in this Section 5.3, from the No-Shop Period Start Date (or, with respect to an Excluded Party, from the date hereof) until the Company’s receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approval, the Company and the Special Committee may, directly or indirectly through one or more of their Representatives (including the Advisors), participate or engage in discussions or negotiations with, furnish any non-public information relating to the Company Group to, or afford access to the business, properties, assets, books, records or other non-public information, or to any personnel, of the Company Group pursuant to an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement to any Person or its Representatives that has made or delivered to the Company an Acquisition Proposal after the No-Shop Period Start Date (or, with respect to an Excluded Party, after the date hereof), and otherwise facilitate such Acquisition Proposal or assist such Person (and its Representatives and financing sources) with such Acquisition Proposal (in each case, if requested by such Person), in each case with respect to an Acquisition Proposal that did not result from any material breach of Section 5.3(b); provided, however, that the Special Committee has determined in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that such Acquisition Proposal either constitutes a Superior Proposal or is reasonably likely to lead to a Superior Proposal, and the Special Committee has determined in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that the failure to take the actions contemplated by this Section 5.3(c) would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties pursuant to applicable law; and provided further, however, that the Company will promptly (and in any event within 24 hours) make available to Parent any non-public information concerning the Company Group that is provided to any such Person or its Representatives that was not previously made available to Parent.
Commercialization Plan At such times as the JGC will deem appropriate, the JGC will direct the Parties to mutually prepare a Worldwide Commercialization Plan, and the JGC will review and approve such initial Worldwide Commercialization Plan. Thereafter, the JGC will have one or the other Party (or both) update the Worldwide Commercialization Plan each calendar year, and the JGC will review and approve any such update or any other amendment to the Worldwide Commercialization Plan. Notwithstanding anything in this CCPS Agreement to the contrary, the Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) Bluebird may decline to perform any Commercialization activity proposed to be conducted by Bluebird in the Worldwide Commercialization Plan (other than Manufacturing of Vectors and associated Payloads), and (ii) the Worldwide Commercialization Plan will not include, and Bluebird will have no obligation to perform, any such Commercialization activity that Bluebird has declined to perform, provided that once Bluebird has agreed to perform a Commercialization activity, it will be obligated to perform, and cannot decline to perform, such activity. In addition, either Party may request at any time that the JGC consider and approve other updates to the Worldwide Commercialization Plan. Further:
(a) The JGC will set the required form and contents of the Worldwide Commercialization Plan. The Worldwide Commercialization Plan will reflect a singular marketing and sales approach worldwide, and will specify, among other things, the number of sales reps in the U.S. for each Party, allocation of regions in the U.S. for each Parties’ sales force, creation of marketing materials, planning for conferences, and other marketing activities. CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL PORTIONS OF THIS EXHIBIT WERE OMITTED AND REPLACED WITH “[***]”. A COMPLETE VERSION OF THIS EXHIBIT HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO AN APPLICATION REQUESTING CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT PURSUANT TO RULE 406 PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED.
(b) Neither Party (itself or by or through any others, including any Affiliates or Sublicensees) will take any material action regarding the Commercialization of Licensed Product unless described in the Worldwide Commercialization Plan or approved by the JGC.
(c) All Commercialization of Licensed Product for U.S. Administration will be conducted under the supervision of the JGC and as part of the U.S. Development & Commercialization Program.
(d) Celgene will have final decision making authority for all Commercialization activities worldwide, including timing of launch and pricing and the Worldwide Development Plan.
Proposal Format To facilitate efficiency and consistency in proposal evaluation, the following guidance is mandatory. Proposals which do not follow this guidance may be rejected as non-responsive and thus ineligible for award.
New Jobs Any new job or jobs created by technological or mechanization changes shall be offered to present employees capable of being trained to perform the new or changed job and the Employer will provide such training. During training, the employee will maintain his/her rate. It is understood that the training herein referred to is on the job and not to exceed sixty (60) days. Certain specialized technical jobs may require additional and off-site training. An employee whose job is eliminated, if any, and who cannot be placed in a job of equal grade shall receive saved grade until such time as that employee fails to bid or apply for a position in the employee’s former wage level. The obligation hereinabove set forth shall not be construed to, in any way, abridge the right of the Employer to make such changes.
Superior Proposal (a) Each party agrees and acknowledges that from and after the date hereof until the close of business on April 28, 1997, if Assignor receives a Superior Proposal, Assignor may (i) furnish any information requested by the Offering Party with respect to such Superior Proposal (other than the contents of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement), (ii) participate in negotiations with such Offering Party regarding such Superior Proposal or (iii) enter into one or more letters of intent, term sheets or agreements with respect to any Superior Proposals; provided, however, that if Assignor proposes to take any of the actions specified in clause (iii) hereof, Assignor shall give Assignee prior written notice setting forth Assignor's proposed actions.
(b) Not later than the close of business on May 12, 1997, Assignor shall require each Offering Party with whom it is still engaged in discussions to submit a final binding offer, subject only to acceptance by Assignor. Not later than the close of business on May 16, 1997, Assignor shall (i) determine whether any such offer constitutes a Superior Proposal, (ii) if there is more than one Superior Proposal, select which Superior Proposal Assignor intends to accept and (iii) provide written notice to Assignee setting forth all the material terms and conditions of such selected Superior Proposal ("SP Notice").
(c) After receipt of the SP Notice, Assignee shall have five (5) days to notify Assignor of its agreement to modify this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement as necessary to acquire the Transferred Interests at the same price and under the same terms and conditions as set forth in the SP Notice ("Assignee Acceptance Notice"); provided further, however, if under the terms set forth in the SP Notice Assignor is proposing to accept property (other than cash or promissory notes), Assignee shall have the right to substitute cash in an amount equal to the value of such other property.
(d) If Assignor does not give an SP Notice to Assignee on or before May 16, 1997, or if Assignee gives an Assignee Acceptance Notice to Assignor in accordance with subsection (c) hereof, neither Assignor nor Assignee shall thereafter have any right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 15(c).
Cost Proposal After the Approved Working Drawings are approved by Landlord and Tenant, Landlord shall provide Tenant with a cost proposal in accordance with the Approved Working Drawings, which cost proposal shall include, as nearly as possible, the cost of all TI Allowance Items to be incurred by Tenant in connection with the construction of the Tenant Improvements (the "Cost Proposal"). Landlord does not guaranty the accuracy of the Cost Proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, portions of the cost of the Tenant Improvements may be delivered to Tenant as such portions of the Tenant Improvements are priced by Contractor (on an individual item-by-item or trade-by-trade basis), even before the Approved Working Drawings are completed (the "Partial Cost Proposal"). Tenant shall either (i) approve and deliver the Cost Proposal to Landlord within five (5) business days of the receipt of the same (or, as to a Partial Cost Proposal, within two (2) business days of receipt of the same), or (ii) notify Landlord within five (5) business days after Tenant's receipt of the Cost Proposal (or Partial Cost Proposal, as the case may be) that Tenant desires to revise the Approved Working Drawings to reduce the amount of the Cost Proposal (or Partial Cost Proposal, as the case may be), in which case such changes shall be made to the Approved Working Drawings only in accordance with Section 2.7 above and the revised Working Drawings shall be provided to the Contractor for repricing whereupon Landlord shall revise the Cost Proposal (or Partial Cost Proposal, as the case may be) for Tenant's approval. This procedure shall be repeated until the Cost Proposal (or Partial Cost Proposal, as the case may be) is approved by Tenant. The date by which Tenant has approved the Cost Proposal, or the last Partial Cost Proposal, as the case may be, shall be known hereafter as the "Cost Proposal Delivery Date." The total of all Partial Cost Proposals, if any, shall be known as the Cost Proposal.
Acquisition Proposal “Acquisition Proposal” shall mean any offer or proposal (other than an offer or proposal made or submitted by Parent) contemplating or otherwise relating to any Acquisition Transaction.
