Survival; Limitations (a) Except to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement or any other Separation Agreement, all covenants and agreements of the Parties contained in the Separation Agreements shall survive each of the Offering and a Spin-Off. The limitation period applicable to any proceeding in respect of such covenants and agreements shall be as prescribed by applicable Law. To the extent the limitation period applicable to any proceeding in respect of such covenants and agreements is governed by the Laws of the Province of Ontario, the limitation period shall be solely as prescribed in sections 15-17 of the Limitations Act, 2002 and any other limitation period in respect of such proceeding (including that provided for in section 4 of the Limitations Act, 2002) is extended accordingly. The rights and obligations of ATS, Photowatt and each of their respective Indemnified Persons under this Agreement shall survive the direct or indirect sale, assignment or other transfer by any Party of any Assets or Liabilities.
(b) The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Agreement shall be net of any Tax Benefit and any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party from any third Person (including amounts actually recovered under insurance policies) with respect to such Losses. Any Indemnifying Party hereunder shall be subrogated to the rights of the Indemnified Party upon payment in full of the amount of the relevant indemnifiable Losses. An insurer who would otherwise be obligated to pay any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of the indemnification provision hereof, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto. If any Indemnified Party recovers an amount from a third Person in respect of Losses for which indemnification is provided in this Agreement after the full amount of such indemnifiable Losses has been paid by an Indemnifying Party or after an Indemnifying Party has made a partial payment of such indemnifiable Losses and the amount received from the third Person exceeds the remaining unpaid balance of such indemnifiable Losses, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly remit to the Indemnifying Party the excess, if any, of (X) the sum of the amount theretofore paid by such Indemnifying Party in respect of such indemnifiable Losses plus the amount received from the third Person in respect thereof, over (Y) the full amount of such indemnifiable Losses.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 8, the initial presumption shall be that there is no insurance coverage for any such Losses, and the Indemnifying Party shall, upon request by the Indemnified Party, fully indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Party from and against any and all such Losses. Once the Indemnifying Party has discharged this obligation to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party may request that the Indemnified Party pursue insurance coverage from one or more insurers in connection with such Losses. If so requested, the Indemnified Party shall pursue insurance coverage, including, if necessary, the filing of coverage litigation, all of which shall be at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense. The Indemnifying Party shall pay directly or promptly reimburse the Indemnified Party for all such costs and expenses, as directed by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall retain full and exclusive control of all such matters (including the settlement of underlying covered claims and/or coverage claims against insurers), and the Indemnified Party shall have the right to select counsel with the concurrence of Indemnifying Party, which concurrence shall not be withheld unreasonably. The net proceeds of any insurance recovery (after deducting any costs and expenses that have not yet been paid or reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party) shall be paid to the Indemnifying Party. At all times, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party’s insurers and/or with the Indemnified Party in the pursuit of insurance coverage, as and when reasonably requested to do so by the Indemnified Party. It is not the intent of this Section 8.5(c) to absolve the Indemnifying Party of any responsibility to the Indemnified Party for those Losses in connection with which the Indemnified Party actually secures insurance coverage, but to allocate the costs of pursuing such coverage to the Indemnifying Party and to provide the Indemnified Party with a full, interim indemnity from the Indemnifying Party until such time as the extent of insurance coverage is determined and is obtained. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.5(c), if the Indemnified Party (in its absolute and sole discretion) determines that it is necessary to do so, the Indemnified Party may pursue insurance coverage for the benefit of the Indemnified Party before the Indemnifying Party has fully discharged its obligations to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement. In such event, the Indemnified Party may unilaterally take any steps it determines are necessary to preserve such insurance coverage, including tendering the defense of any claim or suit to an insurer or insurers of the Indemnified Party if the Indemnified Party concludes that such action may be required by the relevant insurance policy or policies. Any such actions by the Indemnified Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any of its obligations to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement, including the Indemnifying Party’s obligation to pay directly or reimburse the Indemnified Party for costs and expenses.
(d) Any indemnification payment made under this Agreement shall be characterized for Tax purposes as a contribution or distribution or payment of an assumed or retained liability, as applicable.
(e) ATS’ and Photowatt’s indemnity obligations under Sections 8.2 and 8.3 shall be reduced to reflect any Tax Benefit realized, in the year in which the indemnity payment is required to be made or in any prior year, by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates. To the extent that the claim with respect to which an indemnity obligation arises has not given rise to a Tax Benefit in prior year or in the year in which the indemnity payment is to be made, but gives rise to a Tax Benefit in a later year, the Indemnified Party shall pay to the Indemnifying Party the amount of such Tax Benefit. For purposes of determining the amount of any payment due to an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 8.5(e), ATS and Photowatt and their respective Affiliates shall be deemed to use all other deductions, amortizations, exclusions from income or other allowances (to the extent that such deductions, amortizations, exclusions from income or other allowances are entitled to be used under applicable tax law) prior to the use of any Tax Benefits in respect of which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to pay the Indemnified Party hereunder.
(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Separation Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any Party or any of its Group members be liable to the other Party or any other Person under this Agreement or any other Separation Agreement for, and each Party (on behalf of itself, its Affiliates and other Indemnified Persons) hereby releases the other Party from all claims for, special, collateral, indirect, consequential, incidental or punitive damages (including lost profits or savings), however caused and on any theory of liability (including negligence), even if advised of their possible existence; provided, however, that the foregoing limitations shall not limit either Party’s indemnification obligations as set forth in Article 8 hereof in respect of any Third Party Claim.
ANNUAL LIMITATION Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, and with respect to each Tax Year of the Tax Limitation Period beginning after the first Tax Year of the Tax Limitation Period, in no event shall (i) the sum of the maintenance and operations ad valorem taxes paid by the Applicant to the District for such Tax Year, plus the sum of all payments otherwise due from the Applicant to the District under Articles IV, V, and VI of this Agreement with respect to such Tax Year, exceed (ii) the amount of the maintenance and operations ad valorem taxes that the Applicant would have paid to the District for such Tax Year (determined by using the District’s actual maintenance and operations tax rate for such Tax Year) if the Parties had not entered into this Agreement. The calculation and comparison of the amounts described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence shall be included in all calculations made pursuant to Article IV of this Agreement, and in the event the sum of the amounts described in said clause (i) exceeds the amount described in said clause (ii), then the payments otherwise due from the Applicant to the District under Articles IV, V, and VI shall be reduced until such excess is eliminated.
Additional Limitation (i) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that the amount of any compensation, payment or distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, calculated in a manner consistent with Section 280G of the Code, and the applicable regulations thereunder (the “Aggregate Payments”), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then the Aggregate Payments shall be reduced (but not below zero) so that the sum of all of the Aggregate Payments shall be $1.00 less than the amount at which the Executive becomes subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code; provided that such reduction shall only occur if it would result in the Executive receiving a higher After Tax Amount (as defined below) than the Executive would receive if the Aggregate Payments were not subject to such reduction. In such event, the Aggregate Payments shall be reduced in the following order, in each case, in reverse chronological order beginning with the Aggregate Payments that are to be paid the furthest in time from consummation of the transaction that is subject to Section 280G of the Code: (1) cash payments not subject to Section 409A of the Code; (2) cash payments subject to Section 409A of the Code; (3) equity-based payments and acceleration; and (4) non-cash forms of benefits; provided that in the case of all the foregoing Aggregate Payments all amounts or payments that are not subject to calculation under Treas. Reg. §1.280G-1, Q&A-24(b) or (c) shall be reduced before any amounts that are subject to calculation under Treas. Reg. §1.280G-1, Q&A-24(b) or (c).
(ii) For purposes of this Section 6(b), the “After Tax Amount” means the amount of the Aggregate Payments less all federal, state, and local income, excise and employment taxes imposed on the Executive as a result of the Executive’s receipt of the Aggregate Payments. For purposes of determining the After Tax Amount, the Executive shall be deemed to pay federal income taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal income taxation applicable to individuals for the calendar year in which the determination is to be made, and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rates of individual taxation in each applicable state and locality, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes.
Additional Limitation of Liability The parties hereto are expressly put on notice that a Certificate of Trust, referring to the Trust’s Agreement and Declaration of Trust (the “Certificate”), is on file with the Secretary of the State of Delaware. The Certificate was executed by a trustee of the Trust on behalf of the Trust as trustee, and not individually, and, as provided in the Trust’s Agreement and Declaration of Trust, the obligations of the Trust are not binding on the Trust’s trustees, officers or shareholders individually but are binding only upon the assets and property of the Trust, or the particular series in question, as the case may be. Further, the liabilities and obligations of any series of the Trust shall be enforceable only against the assets belonging to such series, and not against the assets of any other series.
Additional Limitations The issuance of ADSs against deposits of Shares generally or against deposits of particular Shares may be suspended, or the deposit of particular Shares may be refused, or the registration of transfer of ADSs in particular instances may be refused, or the registration of transfers of ADSs generally may be suspended, during any period when the transfer books of the Company, the Depositary, a Registrar or the Share Registrar are closed or if any such action is deemed necessary or advisable by the Depositary or the Company, in good faith, at any time or from time to time because of any requirement of law or regulation, any government or governmental body or commission or any securities exchange on which the ADSs or Shares are listed, or under any provision of the Deposit Agreement or the representative ADR(s), if applicable, or under any provision of, or governing, the Deposited Securities, or because of a meeting of shareholders of the Company or for any other reason, subject, in all cases, to Section 7.8.
General Limitation of Liability No claim may be made by any Credit Party, any Lender, the Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer or any other Person against the Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer, or any other Lender or the Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents of any of them for any damages other than actual compensatory damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and the Borrower, each Lender, the Administrative Agent and each LC Issuer hereby, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, waive, release and agree not to xxx or counterclaim upon any such claim for any special, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in their favor.
General Limitation Xxxxxx Mae shall be liable under the terms of the Lower Tier Classes, the Certificates and this Trust Agreement only to the extent of faithful performance of the duties and responsibilities imposed by the terms of the Lower Tier Classes, the Certificates and this Trust Agreement.
Survival Period The representations and warranties of the parties contained herein shall not be extinguished by the Closing, but shall survive the Closing for, and all claims for indemnification in connection therewith shall be asserted not later than, three (3) years following the Closing Date; provided, however, that the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.01 (Power, Authority and Organization of the Shareholders), Section 3.03 (Ownership of the Company Shares), Section 4.01 (Organization and Authorization), Section 4.02 (Authorized and Outstanding Stock), Section 4.09 (Real Property), Section 4.10 (Personal Property), Section 4.15 (Employee Benefits), Section 4.16 (Collective Bargaining), Section 4.17 (Labor Disputes), Section 4.19 (Environmental Matters), Section 4.27 (Tax Matters), Section 4.28 (Brokerage) (collectively, the “Surviving Representations”) shall survive without limitation as to time, and the period during which a claim for indemnification may be asserted in connection therewith shall continue indefinitely. The covenants and agreements of the parties hereunder shall survive without limitation as to time, and the period during which a claim for indemnification may be asserted in connection therewith shall continue indefinitely. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, prior to the close of business on the last day a claim for indemnification may be asserted hereunder, an Indemnifying Party shall have been properly notified of a claim for indemnity hereunder and such claim shall not have been finally resolved or disposed of at such date, such claim shall continue to survive and shall remain a basis for indemnity hereunder until such claim is finally resolved or disposed of in accordance with the terms hereof.
Indemnification Limitations (a) In no event shall the Sellers be liable for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i) (other than in respect of the representations and warranties in Section 4.1 (Corporate Status), Section 4.2 (Authority), the first two sentences of each of Section 4.4(a) and 4.4(b) (Capitalization), Section 4.7 (Taxes), and Section 4.21 (Finder’s Fee) (collectively, the “Excluded Representations”) and Section 4.17 (Sufficiency of Assets)) unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses with respect to Section 10.2(a)(i) that are imposed on or incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties exceeds $1,400,000 (the “Threshold Amount”), in which case the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification for all Losses from the first dollar, including both the Threshold Amount and any amounts in excess thereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Sellers shall not (i) be required to make payments for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i) (other than in respect of the Excluded Representations) in an aggregate amount in excess of $18,000,000 (the “Indemnification Cap”), or (ii) be liable for indemnification with respect to any Loss by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 10.2(a)(i) (other than in respect of the Excluded Representations) to the extent such Loss and all Losses arising out of the same facts and circumstances are, in the aggregate, less than $15,000 (each, a “De Minimis Loss”) (and such Losses shall be disregarded and shall not be aggregated for purposes of the Threshold Amount unless and until such Losses arising out of the same facts or circumstances exceed the De Minimis Loss amount). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Sellers shall have ninety (90) days after the receipt of an indemnification claim for any Loss by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties in respect of Section 4.20(b) (Products Liability; Warranty) in which to propose a commercially reasonable alternative to satisfy such claim, including the repair, replacement or redelivery of any products that are the subject of such claim, which such commercially reasonable alternative is subject to the prior written approval of the Purchaser Indemnified Party, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (it being understood that any and all costs or other Losses imposed on or incurred by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties arising out of such alternative shall, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations contained herein, be considered indemnifable Losses). Purchaser shall not be required to make payments for indemnification pursuant to Section 10.2(b)(i) in an aggregate amount in excess of the Indemnification Cap.
(b) In calculating amounts payable to an Indemnified Party hereunder, the amount of any indemnified Losses shall be determined without duplication of any other Loss for which an indemnification claim has been made or could be made under any other representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement and shall be computed net of (i) payments recovered by the Indemnified Party under indemnification agreements or arrangements with third parties or under any insurance policy with respect to such Losses (after deduction for any cost of collection, deductible, retroactive premium adjustment, reimbursement obligation or other cost or expense directly related thereto) (each, a “Collateral Source”), (ii) any prior recovery by the Indemnified Party from any Person with respect to such Losses, including by such Loss being included as a Liability in Final Net Working Capital and actually resulting in an adjustment to the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 3.4(f), or (iii) any Tax Benefit actually received by a Purchased Entity with respect to such Losses in the year of the indemnity payment or a prior year, but increased by the amount of any Tax detriment actually paid by any Indemnified Party as a result of such party’s receipt of the indemnification payment with respect to such Loss. In the event of any indemnification claim paid, Honeywell may, in its sole discretion, require the Indemnified Party to grant to Honeywell an assignment of the right of such Indemnified Party to assert a claim against any Collateral Source. If the amount to be netted hereunder from any payment required under this Article X or Article VIII is determined after payment of any amount otherwise required to be paid to an Indemnified Party under this Article X or Article VIII, the Indemnified Party shall repay to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after such determination, any amount that the Indemnifying Party would not have had to pay pursuant to this Article X or Article VIII had such determination been made at the time of such payment.
(c) Subject to the other provisions of this Article X, but notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (i) in no event shall the Sellers or Purchaser be liable for any punitive damages, except to the extent such damages are payable to an unaffiliated third party and (ii) in no event shall the Sellers be liable for any consequential damages (it being understood and agreed that the term “consequential damages” used herein shall not include damages related to lost profits, diminution in value (including multiple of earnings or similar metrics for measuring damages), nor damages payable to an unaffiliated third party) arising out of indemnification claims for Excluded Liabilities described in Sections 2.5(a)(iv), (v)(A), (vii)(B), (ix), (x), (xi), (xii), and (xiv) and Section 2.5(b)(vi) (each such indemnification claim, a “Business Related Excluded Liabilities Claim”) in excess of $28,000,000; provided that the foregoing limitation on consequential damages shall not apply to the extent any such Excluded Liability relates to the Excluded Assets, the Purchased Entities’ Excluded Assets, or operation or conduct by the Sellers or any of their Affiliates of any business (other than the Business). Purchaser and the Sellers shall, and Purchaser shall cause the Purchaser Indemnified Parties to, in good faith, (x) agree upon what portion of damages (if any) constitute consequential damages in connection with the settlement of a Business Related Excluded Liabilities Claim and (y) use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Governmental Authority to determine what portion of damages (if any) constitute consequential damages as part of any Governmental Order that is entered by such Governmental Authority in connection with a Business Related Excluded Liabilities Claim.
(d) Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement to the contrary, after the Closing, indemnification and specific performance pursuant to the provisions of this Article X, Section 6.14 and Article VIII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties with respect to any and all claims (whether in contract or in tort) arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (other than remedies set forth in the Ancillary Agreements with regard to the transactions contemplated thereby), including in respect of any misrepresentation or breach of any warranty, covenant or other provision contained in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto. Without limiting the generality or effect of the foregoing, as a material inducement to the Sellers entering into this Agreement, Purchaser hereby waives, from and after the Closing, any claim or cause of action, known and unknown, foreseen and unforeseen, which it or any of the other Purchaser Indemnified Parties may have against any Seller or any of its Affiliates, including without limitation under the common law or federal or state securities Laws, trade regulation Laws or other Laws (including any relating to Intellectual Property, products liability (including Products Liability Claims), Tax, environmental, real estate or employee matters), by reason of this Agreement and the transactions provided for herein, except for claims or causes of action brought under and subject to the terms and conditions of the provisions contained in this Article X and Article VIII. All payments made pursuant to this Article X and Article VIII shall be made by the Sellers to Purchaser or by Purchaser to the Sellers, as the case may be, and shall be deemed to be adjustments to the Purchase Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Article X shall limit any claim by a Purchaser Indemnified Party alleging that Sellers defrauded such Person by intentionally omitting or misstating any disclosure in the Disclosure Schedule where such omission or misstatement constitutes a breach in any material respect of any express representation or warranty, which claims shall, in any case, be subject to the provisions of Sections 4.23, 5.7(a)-(d), 11.7 and 11.8.
(e) The Sellers and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that the other parties would be damaged irreparably in the event any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or otherwise is breached, so that a party shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof. In particular, the parties acknowledge that the Business is unique and recognize and affirm that in the event that the Sellers breach this Agreement, money damages would be inadequate and Purchaser would have no adequate remedy at law, so that Purchaser shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor, to enforce its rights and the Sellers’ obligations hereunder not only by action for damages but also by action for specific performance, injunctive, and/or other equitable relief.
Applicability of ISP; Limitation of Liability Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible to the Borrower for, and the L/C Issuer’s rights and remedies against the Borrower shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of the L/C Issuer required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the Law or any order of a jurisdiction where the L/C Issuer or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice.
