Spin-Off Agreements Clause Samples
A Spin-Off Agreements clause defines the terms and conditions under which a company may separate a portion of its business into a new, independent entity. This clause typically outlines the procedures for transferring assets, liabilities, and employees to the new entity, and may address the allocation of intellectual property, ongoing service arrangements, or transitional support between the original and spun-off companies. Its core practical function is to provide a clear framework for executing a spin-off, thereby minimizing disputes and ensuring a smooth transition for all parties involved.
Spin-Off Agreements. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Spin-Off Agreements and subject to compliance with applicable Law and to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1(a) and 7.1(c), immediately prior to the Closing, the Company will consummate the Spin-Off and the other transactions contemplated by the Spin-Off Agreements, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Spin-Off Agreements. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company will cause each condition set forth in Section 7.1 of the Separation and Distribution Agreement and the conditions in Section 7.1(d) and Section 7.1(e) of this Agreement to be satisfied as promptly as practicable following the date hereof, including by preparing and filing, or confidentially submitting, a registration statement on Form 10 (or Form S-1 if the Company so determines after consultation with Parent) (together with any amendments, supplements, prospectuses or information statements in connection therewith, the “Spin-Off Registration Statement”) to register the common shares of SpinCo as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within sixty (60) calendar days after the date of this Agreement. The Company will timely provide drafts of the Spin-Off Registration Statement (and any amendments or supplement thereto) to Parent for review and comment (which comments will be considered by the Company in good faith). Following such initial filing or confidential submission of the Spin-Off Registration Statement, the Company will respond to all comments from the staff of the SEC and file all necessary amendments to the Spin-Off Registration Statement as promptly as possible following receipt of such comments. The Company will seek effectiveness of the Spin-Off Registration Statement as promptly as possible following resolution of the SEC Staff’s comments, and thereafter will use reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the Spin-Off Registration Statement. Each of the Company and Parent will cooperate reasonably with each other, and will cause their respective Affiliates to so cooperate, to effectuate the Spin-Off. Neither the Company nor any Company Subsidiary will amend, modify or supplement, or agree to amend, modify or supplement, any Spin-Off Agreement without the prior written consent of the Parent.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent any Spin-off Agreement contains any indemnification obligation relating to any Greatbatch Liability, Greatbatch Asset, Nuvectra Liability or Nuvectra Asset contributed, assumed, retained, licensed, transferred, delivered or conveyed pursuant to such Spin-off Agreement, the indemnification obligations contained herein shall not apply to such Greatbatch Liability, Greatbatch Asset, Nuvectra Liability or Nuvectra Asset and, in lieu thereof, the indemnification obligations set forth in such Spin-off Agreement shall govern instead with respect to such Greatbatch Liability, Greatbatch Asset, Nuvectra Liability or Nuvectra Asset.
