Protective Holdback Sample Clauses
A Protective Holdback clause allows a portion of funds or assets to be temporarily withheld during a transaction to safeguard against potential future claims or liabilities. In practice, this means that a buyer may retain a set amount from the purchase price until certain conditions are met, such as the resolution of outstanding obligations or the expiration of a claims period. The core function of this clause is to protect the party holding the funds from unforeseen issues that may arise after closing, ensuring that there are resources available to address any post-transaction problems.
Protective Holdback. (i) If at any time one or more Trust Professional’s fees and expenses (other than Residual Wind-Down Expenses) are in excess of its Budget and (except for the Holdback) such Trust Professional(s) are not paid such amounts pursuant to Section 2.6, then, with the approval of the GUC Trust Monitor, the GUC Trust Administrator may reserve an amount, or increase the amount previously reserved, of GUC Trust Distributable Assets whose proceeds upon liquidation would be sufficient to satisfy the aggregate reasonable fees and expenses of such Trust Professional(s) that have been approved by the GUC Trust Administrator and GUC Trust Monitor but have not been paid (the “Protective Holdback”).
(ii) If at any time, the GUC Trust Administrator determines (which such determination shall be made no more frequently than once per calendar quarter) that the value of the expected proceeds, upon liquidation, of the assets which make up the Protective Holdback is materially greater than the amount of the unpaid fees and expenses of the Trust Professionals on account of which the assets of the Protective Holdback have been reserved pursuant to Section 6.1(d)(i), the GUC Trust Administrator shall, with the approval of the GUC Trust Monitor, but without the need to seek or obtain approval of the Bankruptcy Court, release from the Protective Holdback an amount of GUC Trust Distributable Assets whose proceeds upon liquidation would be equal to the size of such excess.
(iii) To the extent necessary to satisfy in full the fees and expenses of the Trust Professionals, the GUC Trust Administrator may, in consultation with the GUC Trust Monitor and upon approval by the Bankruptcy Court, liquidate (or request that the Debtors liquidate, in accordance with Section 2.3(f) hereof) all or a portion of the Protective Holdback and apply the proceeds thereof to satisfy the applicable unpaid fees and expenses of the GUC Trust. The GUC Trust Administrator shall not liquidate the Protective Holdback, in whole or in part, except in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.1(b)(iv); provided that the GUC Trust Administrator shall not seek Bankruptcy Court approval for such liquidation more frequently than on a semi-annual basis.
Protective Holdback. As of the end of (i) the relevant fiscal quarter or fiscal year; (ii) the next preceding fiscal quarter (or, in the case of a report for the first fiscal quarter, the Effective Date) and (iii) the comparable period of the next preceding fiscal year. Additional Holdback
