Opinion of Counsel for the Initial Purchasers On the Closing Date the Initial Purchasers shall have received the favorable opinion of Xxxxxx Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP, counsel for the Initial Purchasers, dated as of such Closing Date, with respect to such matters as may be reasonably requested by the Initial Purchasers.
Initial Purchase Price (a) Prior to Closing, the Company shall prepare (and, if requested by Purchaser, in consultation with Purchaser), and at least four Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Purchaser, a written statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth:
(i) the Company’s good faith estimate and supporting calculations of (I) the Cash Amount (the “Estimated Cash Amount”), (II) the Net Working Capital (the “Estimated Net Working Capital”), (III) the Indebtedness Amount (the “Estimated Indebtedness Amount”) and (IV) the Transaction Expenses Amount (the “Estimated Transaction Expenses Amount”);
(ii) payment instructions for the payment of the Closing Consideration;
(iii) a list of and, as applicable, payment instructions for the payment of, each of the Transaction Expenses included in the Estimated Transaction Expenses Amount; and
(iv) the calculation of the Initial Purchase Price and Closing Consideration derived therefrom.
(b) During the preparation of the Closing Statement (if requested by Purchaser) and after the delivery of the Closing Statement, Purchaser and its Representatives shall have a reasonable opportunity to review and to discuss with the Company and its Representatives (a) the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ working papers and the working papers of the Company’s independent accountants, if any, relating to the preparation of the Closing Statement and the calculation of the Estimated Cash Amount, Estimated Net Working Capital, Estimated Indebtedness Amount and Estimated Transaction Expenses Amount and (b) the relevant books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries relating to the Cash Amount, the Net Working Capital, the Indebtedness Amount or the Transaction Expenses Amount; and the Company and its Representatives shall reasonably assist Purchaser and its representatives in their review of the Closing Statement and the preparation thereof and reasonably cooperate with respect thereto. In the event Purchaser notifies the Company in writing prior to the Closing that it disputes any amount set forth in the Closing Statement, Purchaser and the Company shall cooperate in good faith to resolve any such dispute as promptly as practicable prior to the Closing Date. If, prior to the Closing, Purchaser and the Company agree in writing to any component on the Closing Statement, then such components of the Closing Statement shall be modified as so agreed. The Closing shall not be delayed if Purchaser and the Company are unable, after any such cooperation, to agree on all of the components of the Closing Statement and, except as otherwise agreed to by Purchaser and the Company in writing, the parties shall use the Closing Statement as delivered by the Company for purposes of determining the Closing Consideration (without limiting any of the provisions of this Agreement, including Article II).
(c) From 12:00 a.m. on the Closing Date and until the Closing, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, make any dividend or distributions of Cash or incur any Indebtedness or Transaction Expenses (other than as a result of the Financing or as already fully reflected in the Closing Statement) or use any Cash to pay any Transaction Expenses or to repay any Indebtedness. If, as a result of a breach by the Company of any of its covenants contained in this Section 1.02(c), Cash, Transaction Expenses or Indebtedness shall have changed between 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date and the time immediately preceding the Closing, then any such changes shall be included in the calculation of Cash Amount, Transaction Expenses Amount and/or Indebtedness Amount (as the case may be) for purposes of the Closing Statement.
(d) For purposes of this Agreement,
Indemnification of the Initial Purchasers The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its affiliates, directors, officers and employees, and each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense, as incurred, to which such Initial Purchaser, affiliate, director, officer, employee or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company), insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Final Term Sheet, any Company Additional Written Communication or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and to reimburse each Initial Purchaser and each such affiliate, director, officer, employee or controlling person for any and all expenses (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Representatives) as such expenses are reasonably incurred by such Initial Purchaser or such affiliate, director, officer, employee or controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement shall not apply, with respect to an Initial Purchaser, to any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense to the extent, but only to the extent, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Initial Purchaser through the Representatives expressly for use in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Final Term Sheet, any Company Additional Written Communication or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto). The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 8(a) shall be in addition to any liabilities that the Company may otherwise have.
Certain Agreements of the Initial Purchasers Each Initial Purchaser hereby represents and agrees that it has not and will not use, authorize use of, refer to, or participate in the planning for use of, any written communication that constitutes an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Securities other than (i) the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Offering Memorandum, (ii) a written communication that contains no “issuer information” (as defined in Rule 433(h)(2) under the Securities Act) that was not included (including through incorporation by reference) in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Offering Memorandum, (iii) any written communication listed on Annex A or prepared pursuant to Section 4(c) above (including any electronic road show), (iv) any written communication prepared by such Initial Purchaser and approved by the Company in advance in writing or (v) any written communication relating to or that contains the terms of the Securities and/or other information that was included (including through incorporation by reference) in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum or the Offering Memorandum.
Defaulting Initial Purchasers If, on the Closing Date, any Initial Purchaser defaults in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers shall be obligated to purchase the Notes that such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase on the Closing Date (the “Remaining Notes”) in the respective proportions that the principal amount of the Notes set opposite the name of each non-defaulting Initial Purchaser in Schedule I hereto bears to the total number of the Notes set opposite the names of all the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers in Schedule I hereto; provided, however, that the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers shall not be obligated to purchase any of the Notes on the Closing Date if the total amount of Notes which the defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase on such date exceeds 10% of the total amount of Notes to be purchased on the Closing Date, and no non-defaulting Initial Purchaser shall be obligated to purchase more than 110% of the amount of Notes that it agreed to purchase on the Closing Date pursuant to this Agreement. If the foregoing maximums are exceeded, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers, or those other purchasers satisfactory to the Initial Purchasers and the Company who so agree, shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase, in such proportion as may be agreed upon among them, all the Remaining Notes. If the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers or other Initial Purchasers satisfactory to the Initial Purchasers do not elect to purchase the Remaining Notes, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or the Company, except that the Company will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses to the extent set forth herein. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve a defaulting Initial Purchaser of any liability it may have to the Company for damages caused by its default. If other purchasers are obligated or agree to purchase the Notes of a defaulting or withdrawing Initial Purchaser, the Company or the Representative may postpone the Closing Date for up to five full business days in order to effect any changes in the Transaction Documents or in any other document or arrangement that, in the opinion of counsel for the Company or Counsel for the Initial Purchasers, may be necessary.
