Satisfaction of Conditions The conditions precedent set out in Section 6.1, Section 6.2 and Section 6.3 shall be conclusively deemed to have been satisfied, waived or released at the Effective Time.
Preservation of Certain Remedies Notwithstanding the preceding binding arbitration provisions, the parties hereto and the other Loan Documents preserve, without diminution, certain remedies that such Persons may employ or exercise freely, either alone, in conjunction with or during a Dispute. Each such Person shall have and hereby reserves the right to proceed in any court of proper jurisdiction or by self help to exercise or prosecute the following remedies, as applicable: (i) all rights to foreclose against any real or personal property or other security by exercising a power of sale granted in the Loan Documents or under Applicable Law or by judicial foreclosure and sale, including a proceeding to confirm the sale, (ii) all rights of self help including peaceful occupation of property and collection of rents, set off, and peaceful possession of property, (iii) obtaining provisional or ancillary remedies including injunctive relief, sequestration, garnishment, attachment, appointment of receiver and in filing an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding, and (iv) when applicable, a judgment by confession of judgment. Preservation of these remedies does not limit the power of an arbitrator to grant similar remedies that may be requested by a party in a Dispute.
Satisfaction of Closing Conditions (a) The parties shall use their commercially reasonable best efforts to take all action necessary or appropriate to bring about the satisfaction as soon as possible of all the conditions contained in Section 7. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties shall apply for and diligently prosecute all applications for, and shall use their commercially reasonable best efforts promptly to obtain, such consents, authorizations and approvals from such third parties and governmental authorities as shall be necessary to permit the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Merger Agreement, including, without limitation, making the requisite filings with the Federal Trade Commission and the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice pursuant to the HSR Act and each party will refrain from taking any action which would cause, and shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to take any action necessary to prevent, any of the representations and warranties made by it in this Merger Agreement not to be true and correct in all material respects at and as of the Closing Date with the same force and effect as then made (except with respect to representation and warranties which are made as of a specific date), subject only to exceptions permitted or expressly contemplated by this Merger Agreement. The Company further covenants and agrees, with respect to any threatened or pending judgment, order, injunction, decree or decision of any governmental authority that will adversely affect the ability of the parties hereto to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, to use all commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the entry or promulgation thereof and to defend and cooperate with each other in the defending of any legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative and whether brought derivatively or on behalf of third parties challenging the transaction contemplated hereby as the case may be, it being understood that such efforts shall not include any requirement of the Company to expend material sums of money or grant any material financial or other accommodation.
(b) The Buyer agrees to use commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain the financing necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby as soon as possible. The Buyer agrees that any 144A offerings contemplated by the Financing Letters must be consummated prior to October 31, 1998 and that if any such offering is not consummated prior to such date, then the Buyer will be obligated on October 31, 1998 to obtain the bridge loan financing contemplated by the Financing Letter in substitution therefor pursuant to the terms thereof, subject to the conditions for such bridge loan financing set forth in the Financing Letters. The Company agrees to provide, and will cause its subsidiaries and their respective personnel and advisers to provide, all cooperation reasonably requested in connection with the arrangement of such financing, including without limitation, participation in meetings, due diligence sessions, road shows, the preparation of offering memoranda, private placement memoranda, prospectuses and similar documents, the execution and delivery of any commitment letters, underwriting or placement agreements, pledge and security documents, other definitive financing documents, or other requested certificates or documents, including a certificate of the chief financial officer of the Company with respect to solvency matters, comfort letters of accountants as may be reasonably requested by Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer agrees that the payment of any expenses relating to providing such cooperation, including fees by the Company in connection with any commitment letters, shall be subject to the occurrence of the Closing.
Suspension of Certain Obligations The Company shall not be required to comply with the provisions of subsections (f), (g) or (h) of this Section 4 during any period from the time (i) the Agents shall have suspended solicitation of offers for the purchase of Notes in their capacity as agents pursuant to a request from the Company and (ii) no Agent shall then hold any Notes purchased from the Company as principal, as the case may be, until the time the Company shall determine that solicitation of offers for the purchase of Notes should be resumed or an Agent shall subsequently purchase Notes from the Company as principal.
Construction of Certain Provisions If any provision of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents refers to any action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person, whether or not expressly specified in such provision.
Restrictions on Payment of Certain Debt Make any payments (whether voluntary or mandatory, or a prepayment, redemption, retirement, defeasance or acquisition) with respect to any (a) Permitted Ratio Debt or Subordinated Debt, except (i) any scheduled payment, or other contractually required payment, as and when due and payable in accordance with the terms of the definitive documentation governing such Permitted Ratio Debt or Subordinated Debt (including any applicable subordination agreements), (ii) fees and expenses payable to holders of such Permitted Ratio Debt or Subordinated Debt required under the definitive documentation governing such Permitted Ratio Debt or Subordinated Debt (including any applicable subordination agreements), (iii) in connection with, and to the extent permitted hereby, any Refinancing Debt in connection with such Permitted Ratio Debt or Subordinated Debt and (iv) any other payments (whether voluntary or mandatory, or a prepayment, redemption, retirement, defeasance or acquisition) so long as the Permitted Payment Conditions have been satisfied; or (b) Term Debt, except (i) any scheduled payment, or other contractually required payment, as and when due and payable in accordance with the terms of the definitive documentation governing such Term Debt (including any applicable Intercreditor Agreement), (ii) fees and expenses payable to Term Agent and Term Lenders required under the Term Loan Debt Documents, (iii) in connection with, and to the extent permitted hereby, any Refinancing Debt in connection with such Term Debt and (iii) other payments to the extent expressly permitted in the Intercreditor Agreement and (iv) any other payments (whether voluntary or mandatory, or a prepayment, redemption, retirement, defeasance or acquisition) so long as the Permitted Payment Conditions have been satisfied.
Construction of Certain Phrases (a) For purposes of this Agreement, references to the “Company” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that if Indemnitee is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, Indemnitee shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Agreement with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as Indemnitee would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.
(b) For purposes of this Agreement, references to “other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on Indemnitee with respect to an employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the Company” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants, or beneficiaries; and if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the Company” as referred to in this Agreement.
