If the Franchise Fees are equal to or less than $12,500,000, the aggregate cash consideration payable to the holders of Seller Common Shares in the Merger and Seller Partnership Units in the Partnership Merger shall not be adjusted pursuant to this Section 5.3(d). If the Franchise Fees exceed $12,500,000 but are less than $25,000,000 the aggregate cash consideration payable to holders of Seller Common Shares in the Merger and Seller Partnership Units in the Partnership Merger shall be reduced by one-half of the amount by which the Franchise Fees exceed $12,500,000, and the Merger Consideration and Partnership Merger Consideration per share or unit, as the case may be, shall be reduced accordingly. If the Franchise Fees exceed $25,000,000, at the option of Seller, Seller may or any Seller Subsidiary may pay or commit to pay or Seller may consent to Lessee paying or committing to pay such excess, and the aggregate cash consideration payable to holders of Seller Common Shares in the Merger and Seller Partnership Units in the Partnership Merger shall be reduced by the sum of (x) $6,250,000 as required by the preceding sentence and (y) the amount by which the Franchise Fees exceed $25,000,000, and the Merger Consideration and Partnership Merger Consideration per share or unit, as the case may be, shall be reduced accordingly.
