Repurchase Right (i) (A) At any time prior to the fifth anniversary of the execution of the Partner Agent Agreement, if the Partner Agent Agreement is terminated by either the Company or the Purchaser, for any reason, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase the Shares currently held by the Purchaser for a price per Share equal to the lesser of (1) the purchase price per Share as provided herein or (2) the Current Market Price (as defined herein) of the Common Stock; and (B) at any time on or after the fifth anniversary of the execution of the Partner Agent Agreement, if the Partner Agent Agreement is terminated by either the Company or the Purchaser, for any reason, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase the Shares currently held by the Purchaser for a price per Share equal to the Current Market Price of the Common Stock. Such right of the Company may be exercised by providing a notice of repurchase (the “Repurchase Notice”) to the Purchaser not less than five business days prior to the date repurchase is to be made pursuant to this Section 4(e), specifying the date of such repurchase (the “Repurchase Date”) and the number of shares of Class B Stock to be repurchased. The Repurchase Notice having been so given by the Company, the aggregate repurchase price for the shares of Class B Stock to be so repurchased shall become due and payable on the Repurchase Date.
(ii) For purposes of this Agreement:
(A) “Current Market Price” per share of a security at any date herein shall mean the average daily Closing Price (as defined herein) of such security for the 20 consecutive Trading Days (as defined herein) preceding such date (subject to equitable adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other similar event involving a change in such security); provided, however, that in the case of the Common Stock, where no public market exists for the Common Stock at the time of exchange, the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock shall be as determined by an independent investment banking firm experienced in the valuation of securities of property and casualty insurance companies and selected by the Company (at the Company’s expense); provided that, after receipt of the determination by such firm, the Purchaser shall have the right to select (at the expense of the Purchaser) a second such investment banking firm to make such determination, in which case the Current Market Price shall be the average of the two determinations; and provided further that such determination need not be made more frequently than once every six months and any determination shall be superceded by a good faith determination by the Company’s board of directors that shall be required if a material event reasonably likely to affect the value of the Common Stock (such as a placement of equity securities) should occur after the next preceding determination, whether by an investment banking firm or firms, or by the Company’s board of directors.
Repurchase Events The Seller hereby covenants and agrees that if the Seller discovers or is notified by a Requesting Party with a Repurchase Request regarding a breach of any of the Seller’s representations and warranties contained in Section 3.02(b) at the time such representations and warranties were made, the Seller will investigate the Receivable to confirm the breach and determine if the breach materially and adversely affects the interests of the Issuer or the Noteholders and triggers a repurchase event (“Repurchase Event”). Upon discovery by any party hereto of a Repurchase Event, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice thereof to the other parties hereto; provided, that delivery of a Servicer’s Certificate shall be deemed to constitute prompt written notice thereof to the other party; provided, further, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect any obligation of the Seller under this Section 7.02. Following a Repurchase Event, the Seller shall either (a) correct or cure such breach or (b) purchase any Receivable materially and adversely affected by such breach from the Issuer, in either case on or before the Payment Date following the end of the Collection Period which includes the 60th day (or, if the Seller elects, an earlier Payment Date) after the date that the Seller became aware of or was notified and confirmed such breach. Any such breach or failure will be deemed not to materially and adversely affect the Noteholders or the Issuer if such breach or failure does not affect the ability of the Issuer or the Noteholders to receive and retain timely payment in full on such Receivable. Any such purchase by the Seller shall be at a price equal to the Purchased Amount. In consideration for such repurchase, the Seller shall make (or shall cause to be made) a payment to the Issuer equal to the Purchased Amount by depositing such amount into the Collection Account on the Business Day preceding the Payment Date of repurchase (or, if the Seller elects, an earlier Payment Date). Upon payment of such Purchased Amount by the Seller, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall release and shall execute and deliver such instruments of release, transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse or representation, as shall be reasonably necessary to vest in the Seller or its designee any Receivable repurchased pursuant hereto. It is understood and agreed that the right to cause the Seller to purchase any Receivable as described above shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach available to the Issuer, the Noteholders, the Owner Trustee, the Certificateholders and the Indenture Trustee. Neither the Owner Trustee nor the Indenture Trustee will have any duty to conduct an affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the repurchase of any Receivable pursuant to this Section 7.02.
Payment of Repurchase Price The Repurchase Price shall be payable, at the option of the Company or its assignee(s), by check or by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding purchase money indebtedness owed by Participant to the Company, or such assignee, or by any combination thereof. The Repurchase Price shall be paid without interest within sixty (60) days after exercise of the Repurchase Option.
Repurchase upon Change of Control (a) If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right, if any, to redeem the Senior Notes in full, the Company shall offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to repurchase any and all of each Holder’s Senior Notes (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 above that amount) at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Company shall be required to mail a notice to each Holder of the Senior Notes to the address of such Holder appearing in the Registrar, with a copy to the Trustee or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase such Senior Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no less than 30 days and no more than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), with the following information:
(i) a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 2.9 and that all Senior Notes properly tendered pursuant to such Change of Control Offer will be accepted for payment;
(ii) the repurchase price and the Change of Control Payment Date;
(iii) any Senior Note not properly tendered will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest;
(iv) unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Senior Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on, but not including, the Change of Control Payment Date;
(v) Holders electing to have any Senior Notes repurchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender such Senior Notes, in the form set forth in Exhibit A entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase”, on the reverse of such Senior Notes completed, to the Paying Agent specified in the notice at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third business day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date;
(vi) Holders will be entitled to withdraw their tendered Senior Notes and their election to require the Company to repurchase such Senior Notes, provided that the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the last day of the Change of Control Offer period, a facsimile transmission, an email or a letter setting forth the name of the Holder of Senior Notes, the principal amount of Senior Notes tendered for repurchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his tendered Senior Notes and his election to have such Senior Notes repurchased;
(vii) if such notice is mailed prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control, stating that the Change of Control Offer is conditional on the occurrence of such Change of Control; and
(viii) that Holders whose Senior Notes are being repurchased only in part will be issued new Senior Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Senior Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $2,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.
(b) While the Senior Notes are in global form and the Company makes an offer to repurchase all of the Senior Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, a Holder may exercise its option to elect for the repurchase of the Senior Notes through the facilities of DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream, subject to their rules and regulations.
(c) The Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Supplemental Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and the third party repurchases on the applicable date all Senior Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer, provided that a failure by such third party to comply with the requirements of such Change of Control Offer and to complete such Change of Control Offer shall be treated as a failure by the Company to comply with its obligations to offer to repurchase the Senior Notes unless the Company promptly makes an offer to repurchase the Senior Notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including the date of repurchase, which shall be no later than 30 days after the third party’s scheduled Change of Control Payment Date, or (2) a notice of redemption has been given pursuant to the Indenture as described under Section 4.03 of the Base Indenture, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable redemption price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control.
(d) The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Senior Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control repurchase provisions of this Supplemental Indenture, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under Section 2.9 of this Supplemental Indenture by virtue thereof.
(e) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law,
(i) accept or cause a third party to accept for payment all Senior Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;
(ii) deposit or cause a third party to deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Senior Notes properly tendered; and
(iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Senior Notes properly accepted, together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the principal amount of Senior Notes being repurchased.
(f) The Paying Agent shall promptly deliver to each Holder of Senior Notes the Change of Control Payment for such Senior Notes. The Company shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.
Transfer to Avoid Termination Event If either an Illegality under Section 5(b)(i)(1) or a Tax Event occurs and there is only one Affected Party, or if a Tax Event Upon Merger occurs and the Burdened Party is the Affected Party, the Affected Party will, as a condition to its right to designate an Early Termination Date under Section 6(b)(iv), use all reasonable efforts (which will not require such party to incur a loss, excluding immaterial, incidental expenses) to transfer within 20 days after it gives notice under Section 6(b)(i) all its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of the Affected Transactions to another of its Offices or Affiliates so that such Termination Event ceases to exist. If the Affected Party is not able to make such a transfer it will give notice to the other party to that effect within such 20 day period, whereupon the other party may effect such a transfer within 30 days after the notice is given under Section 6(b)(i). Any such transfer by a party under this Section 6(b)(ii) will be subject to and conditional upon the prior written consent of the other party, which consent will not be withheld if such other party's policies in effect at such time would permit it to enter into transactions with the transferee on the terms proposed.
Payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price Without limiting the Company’s obligation to deposit the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price within the time proscribed by Section 3.01(B), the Company will cause the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for a Note (or portion thereof) to be repurchased pursuant to a Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change to be paid to the Holder thereof on or before the later of (i) the applicable Fundamental Change Repurchase Date; and (ii) the date (x) such Note is delivered to the Paying Agent (in the case of a Physical Note) or (y) the Depositary Procedures relating to the repurchase, and the delivery to the Paying Agent, of such Holder’s beneficial interest in such Note to be repurchased are complied with (in the case of a Global Note). For the avoidance of doubt, interest payable pursuant to the proviso to Section 4.02(D) on any Note to be repurchased pursuant to a Repurchase Upon Fundamental Change must be paid pursuant to such proviso regardless of whether such Note is delivered or such Depositary Procedures are complied with pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 4.02(G).
Termination of the Repurchase Right The Repurchase Right shall terminate with respect to any Unvested Shares for which it is not timely exercised under Paragraph C.
Repurchase Notices Counterparty shall, on or prior to the date that is one Scheduled Trading Day following any date on which Counterparty obtains actual knowledge that it has effected any repurchase of Shares, promptly give Dealer a written notice of such repurchase (a “Repurchase Notice”) on such day if following such repurchase, the number of outstanding Shares as determined on such day is (i) less than 81.9 million (in the case of the first such notice) or (ii) thereafter more than 4.2 million less than the number of Shares included in the immediately preceding Repurchase Notice. Counterparty agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Dealer and its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, advisors, agents and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses (including losses relating to Dealer’s hedging activities as a consequence of becoming, or of the risk of becoming, a Section 16 “insider”, including without limitation, any forbearance from hedging activities or cessation of hedging activities and any losses in connection therewith with respect to the Transaction), claims, damages, judgments, liabilities and reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), joint or several, which an Indemnified Person may become subject to, in each case, as a result of Counterparty’s failure to provide Dealer with a Repurchase Notice on the day and in the manner specified in this paragraph, and to reimburse, within 30 days, upon written request, each of such Indemnified Persons for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing for, providing testimony or other evidence in connection with or defending any of the foregoing. If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against the Indemnified Person as a result of Counterparty’s failure to provide Dealer with a Repurchase Notice in accordance with this paragraph, such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify Counterparty in writing, and Counterparty, upon request of the Indemnified Person, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person and any others Counterparty may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding. Counterparty shall not be liable for any settlement of any such proceeding contemplated by this paragraph that is effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, Counterparty agrees to indemnify any Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Counterparty shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any such proceeding that is pending or threatened in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding on terms reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person. If the indemnification provided for in this paragraph is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then Counterparty hereunder, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities. The remedies provided for in this paragraph (b) are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this paragraph shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the termination of the Transaction.
Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control Triggering Event (a) If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Issuer has previously or concurrently mailed a redemption notice with respect to all the outstanding Notes as described under Section 3.07 hereof, the Issuer shall make an offer to purchase all of the Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase, subject to the right of Holders of the Notes of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer shall send notice of such Change of Control Offer by first-class mail, with a copy to the Trustee and the Registrar, to each Holder of Notes to the address of such Holder appearing in the security register with a copy to the Trustee and the Registrar or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of DTC, with the following information:
(1) that a Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.10 and that all Notes properly tendered pursuant to such Change of Control Offer will be accepted for payment by the Issuer;
(2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which will be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”);
(3) that any Note not properly tendered will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest;
(4) that unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to accrue interest on the Change of Control Payment Date;
(5) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender such Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of such Notes completed, to the paying agent specified in the notice at the address specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date;
(6) that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Issuer to purchase such Notes, provided that the paying agent receives, not later than the close of business on the 30th day following the date of the Change of Control Offer notice, a telegram, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder of the Notes, the principal amount of Notes tendered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and its election to have such Notes purchased;
(7) Holders tendering less than all of their Notes will be issued new Notes and such new Notes will be equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered. The unpurchased portion of the Notes must be equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof; and
(8) the other instructions, as determined by the Issuer, consistent with this Section 4.10, that a Holder must follow.
(a) the notice is mailed in a manner herein provided and (b) any Holder fails to receive such notice or a Holder receives such notice but it is defective, such Holder’s failure to receive such notice or such defect shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the purchase of the Notes as to all other Holders that properly received such notice without defect. The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws or regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 4.10, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.10 by virtue thereof.
(b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent permitted by law,
(1) accept for payment all Notes issued by it or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;
(2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered; and
(3) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been tendered to and purchased by the Issuer.
(c) The Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 4.10 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditional upon such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer.
(d) Other than as specifically provided in this Section 4.10, any purchase pursuant to this Section 4.10 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.02, 3.05 and 3.06 hereof.
Withdrawal of Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice (a) A Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice may be withdrawn (in whole or in part) by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the Paying Agent in accordance with this Section 14.03 at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, specifying:
(i) the aggregate principal amount of the Notes with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, which must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof,
(ii) if Physical Notes have been issued, the certificate number of the Note in respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, and
(iii) the aggregate principal amount, if any, of such Note that remains subject to the original Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice, which portion must be in principal amounts of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000; provided, however, that if the Notes are Global Notes, the notice must comply with appropriate procedures of the Depositary.
