• Termination and Abandonment This Agreement may be terminated and the Merger and the other Transactions may be abandoned at any time prior to the Effective Time, notwithstanding any requisite approval and adoption of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby by the stockholders of the Company: (a) By mutual written consent duly authorized by the Boards of Directors of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company prior to Merger Sub's Election Date; or (b) By Parent or the Company if (i) the Minimum Condition has not been satisfied during a ten (10) business day extension of the Offer following the Initial Expiration Date, but all other conditions have been satisfied or (ii) any court of competent jurisdiction in the United States or other governmental authority shall have issued an order, decree, ruling or taken any other action restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the acceptance for payment of, or payment for, shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to the Offer or the Merger and such order, decree, ruling or other action shall have become final and nonappealable; or (c) By Parent, if due to an occurrence or circumstance that results in a failure to satisfy any condition set forth in Annex A, Merger Sub shall have (A) failed to commence the Offer within 10 days following the date of this Agreement or (B) terminated the Offer without having accepted any Shares for payment thereunder, unless any such failure listed above shall have been caused by or resulted from the failure of Parent or Merger Sub to perform in any material respect any material covenant or agreement of either of them contained in this Agreement or the material breach by Parent or Merger Sub of any material representation or warranty of either of them contained in this Agreement; or (d) By the Company, upon approval of the Board, if (i) Merger Sub shall have (A) failed to commence the Offer within 10 days following the date of this Agreement or (B) terminated the Offer without having accepted any Shares for payment thereunder, unless such failure to pay for Shares shall have been caused by or resulted from the failure of the Company to satisfy the conditions set forth in paragraphs (f) or (g) of Annex A, (ii) prior to the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer, the Board shall have withdrawn or modified in a manner adverse to Merger Sub or Parent its approval or recommendation of the Offer, this Agreement or the Merger in order to approve a Superior Proposal; provided, however, that such termination under this clause (ii) shall not be effective until the Company has made payment to Parent of the Termination Fee (as hereinafter defined) required to be paid pursuant to Section 8.2(a) and has deposited with a mutually acceptable escrow agent $2 million for reimbursement to Parent and Merger Sub of Expenses (as hereinafter defined) or (iii) Parent or Merger Sub shall have breached in any material respect any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, which failure to perform is incapable of being cured or has not been cured within 20 days after the giving of written notice to Parent or Merger Sub, as applicable, except, in any case, such failures which are not reasonably likely to affect adversely Parent's or Merger Sub's ability to complete the Offer or the Merger. The party desiring to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1 (other than pursuant to Section 8.1(a)) shall give notice of such termination to the other party.

• Termination of Agreements (a) Except as set forth in Section 2.7(b), in furtherance of the releases and other provisions of Section 4.1, each of UTC, Carrier and Otis and each member of their respective Groups hereby terminate any and all agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings, whether or not in writing, between or among a Party and/or any member of such Party’s Group, on the one hand, and another Party and/or any member of such other Party’s Group, on the other hand, effective as of the applicable Effective Time. No such terminated agreement, arrangement, commitment or understanding (including any provision thereof that purports to survive termination) shall be of any further force or effect after the Effective Time. Each Party shall, at the reasonable request of the other Party, take, or cause to be taken, such other actions as may be necessary to effect the foregoing. (b) The provisions of Section 2.7(a) shall not apply to any of the following agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings (or to any of the provisions thereof): (i) this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (and each other agreement or instrument expressly contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement to be entered into by any of the Parties or any of the members of their respective Groups or to be continued from and after the Effective Time); (ii) any agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings listed or described on Schedule 2.7(b)(ii); (iii) any agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings to which any Third Party is a party thereto (including any Shared Contracts); (iv) any intercompany accounts payable or accounts receivable accrued as of the Effective Time that are reflected in the books and records of the Parties or otherwise documented in writing in accordance with past practices, which shall be settled in the manner contemplated by Section 2.7(c); (v) any agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings to which any non-wholly owned Subsidiary of UTC, Carrier or Xxxx, as the case may be, is a party (it being understood that directors’ qualifying shares or similar interests will be disregarded for purposes of determining whether a Subsidiary is wholly owned); and (vi) any agreements for the sale, lease, construction or receipt of goods, property or services purchased, obtained or used in the ordinary course of business by a member of any Group from a member of another Group prior to the Effective Time. (c) All of the intercompany accounts receivable and accounts payable between any member of a Party’s Group, on the one hand, and any member of another Party’s Group, on the other hand, outstanding as of the Effective Time shall, as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, be repaid, settled or otherwise eliminated in a manner as determined by UTC in its sole and absolute discretion (acting in good faith).

You agree to notify us promptly and to immediately suspend sales of Portfolio shares in the event of any such filing or violation, or in the event that you cease to be a member in good standing of the NASD. (c) Your or our failure to terminate this Agreement for a particular cause will not constitute a waiver of the right to terminate this Agreement at a later date for the same or another cause. The termination of this Agreement with respect to any one Portfolio will not cause its termination with respect to any other Portfolio. 11.

This Agreement may be terminated with respect to any Fund at any time, without the payment of any penalty, by the Board of Directors of the Company or by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of such Fund, or by Adviser, upon 60 days' written notice to the other party. d. This agreement shall terminate automatically in the event of its "assignment" (as defined in the 1940 Act). e. No amendment to this Agreement shall be effective with respect to any Fund until approved by the vote of: (i) a majority of the directors of the Company who are not parties to this Agreement or "interested persons" (as defined in the 0000 Xxx) of Adviser or of the Company cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval; and (ii) a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the applicable Fund. f.

• Transition of Registry upon Termination of Agreement Upon expiration of the Term pursuant to Section 4.1 or Section 4.2 or any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.3 or Section 4.4, Registry Operator shall provide ICANN or any successor registry operator that may be designated by ICANN for the TLD in accordance with this Section 4.5 with all data (including the data escrowed in accordance with Section 2.3) regarding operations of the registry for the TLD necessary to maintain operations and registry functions that may be reasonably requested by ICANN or such successor registry operator. After consultation with Registry Operator, ICANN shall determine whether or not to transition operation of the TLD to a successor registry operator in its sole discretion and in conformance with the Registry Transition Process; provided, however, that (i) ICANN will take into consideration any intellectual property rights of Registry Operator (as communicated to ICANN by Registry Operator) in determining whether to transition operation of the TLD to a successor registry operator and (ii) if Registry Operator demonstrates to ICANN’s reasonable satisfaction that (A) all domain name registrations in the TLD are registered to, and maintained by, Registry Operator or its Affiliates for their exclusive use, (B) Registry Operator does not sell, distribute or transfer control or use of any registrations in the TLD to any third party that is not an Affiliate of Registry Operator, and (C) transitioning operation of the TLD is not necessary to protect the public interest, then ICANN may not transition operation of the TLD to a successor registry operator upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement without the consent of Registry Operator (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing sentence shall not prohibit ICANN from delegating the TLD pursuant to a future application process for the delegation of top-­‐level domains, subject to any processes and objection procedures instituted by ICANN in connection with such application process intended to protect the rights of third parties. Registry Operator agrees that ICANN may make any changes it deems necessary to the IANA database for DNS and WHOIS records with respect to the TLD in the event of a transition of the TLD pursuant to this Section 4.5. In addition, ICANN or its designee shall retain and may enforce its rights under the Continued Operations Instrument for the maintenance and operation of the TLD, regardless of the reason for termination or expiration of this Agreement.
