CIG shall be obligated to accept for payment and pay for shares of Class A Common Stock validly tendered pursuant to the Tender Offer, subject only to the satisfaction or waiver of each of the conditions set forth in Annex A (the “Tender Offer Conditions”). CIG shall have the right to amend or make changes to the terms of the Tender Offer; provided, however, that, without the prior written consent of the Company, the NBCU Entities and the Xxxxxx Stockholders, CIG shall not do any of the following: (A) decrease the Offer Price or change the form of consideration to be paid in the Tender Offer, (B) impose any conditions to the Tender Offer other than the Tender Offer Conditions or (C) otherwise amend the Tender Offer in a manner that would materially and adversely affect the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, CIG shall have the right to extend the Tender Offer beyond the Tender Offer Initial Expiration Date for: (1) any period required by any rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the SEC or the staff thereof applicable to the Tender Offer or (2) any period required by applicable Law, and upon the Company’s request, CIG shall extend the Tender Offer beyond the Tender Offer Initial Expiration Date for one period of up to 30 days for the purpose of satisfying (x) the requirements under any rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the SEC or the staff thereof applicable to the Tender Offer or (y) the waiting period requirements applicable to the Tender Offer under the HSR Act. CIG may extend the Tender Offer beyond the date on which shares of Class A Common Stock are first accepted for payment as a “subsequent offering period” (as such term is defined in Rule 14d-1(g)(8) under the Exchange Act in accordance with Rule 14d-11 of the Exchange Act (a “Subsequent Period”); provided, that upon the request of the Company, CIG shall extend the Tender Offer for one such Subsequent Period; provided, further, that no Subsequent Period shall be less than three Business Days nor more than 20 Business Days and that the total number of Subsequent Periods shall not exceed one. To the extent CIG amends or makes changes to the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer pursuant to this Section 3.01(a), the Company and the NBCU Entities shall cooperate with CIG in making any filings or amendments required by the DGCL, the Exchange Act, the Securities Act or any other applicable Law, or as otherwise may be necessary to effect such amendment or change. (b) As promptly as reasonably practicable on the date the Tender Offer is commenced, (A) CIG shall file with the SEC a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (together with all amendments thereto, the “Tender Offer Schedule TO”) and (B) the Company shall file a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 (the “Schedule 14D-9”) with respect to the Tender Offer, each of which will comply in all material respects with the provisions of all applicable federal and state securities laws, and will contain (including as an exhibit) or incorporate by reference an offer to purchase relating to the Tender Offer and forms of the related letter of transmittal (which documents, together with the Tender Offer Schedule TO and any supplements or amendments thereto, are referred to collectively as the “Tender Offer Documents”). The related letter of transmittal shall provide that, among other matters, in order for shares of Class A Common Stock to be validly tendered, each holder of shares of Class A Common Stock who tenders in the Tender Offer shall represent and warrant to CIG that (x) such holder has full power and authority to tender, sell, assign and transfer shares of Class A Common Stock in the Tender Offer, (y) such holder is not prohibited or restricted from tendering shares of Class A Common Stock in the Tender Offer by the terms of such shares or any Contract and (z) when such shares are accepted for payment by CIG, CIG shall acquire good, marketable and unencumbered title thereto, free and clear of all Liens. (c) The Schedule 14D-9 shall contain the recommendation of the Board described in Section 3.02(a) which recommendation shall not be withdrawn or amended without the prior written consent of CIG and NBCU; provided, however, that the Company’s recommendation may be withdrawn or modified by the Board without the prior written consent of CIG and NBCU to the extent that the Board determines in the good faith exercise of its reasonable business judgment, after receiving the advice of outside counsel, that such recommendation would no longer be consistent with its fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law. On the date filed with the SEC and on the date first disseminated to the Company’s stockholders, the Schedule 14D-9 shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except that no representation is made by the Company with respect to written information supplied by CIG or the NBCU Entities specifically for inclusion in the Schedule 14D-9. On the date filed with the SEC and on the date first disseminated to the Company’s stockholders, the Tender Offer Documents shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except that no representation shall be made by CIG with respect to written information supplied by the Company or the NBCU Entities specifically for inclusion in the Tender Offer Documents, and no representation shall be made by the Company with respect to written information supplied by CIG or the NBCU Entities specifically for inclusion in the Tender Offer Documents. CIG and the Company shall take all steps necessary to cause the Tender Offer Documents to be filed with the SEC and to be disseminated to the Company’s stockholders, in each case as and to the extent required by applicable federal securities laws. Each of CIG, the NBCU Entities and the Company shall promptly correct or supplement any information provided by it for use in the Tender Offer Documents if and to the extent that it shall have become false and misleading in any material respect, and CIG and the Company shall take all steps necessary to cause the Tender Offer Documents as so corrected to be filed with the SEC and to be disseminated to the Company’s stockholders, in each case as and to the extent required by applicable federal securities laws. The Company, the NBCU Entities and their respective counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review the initial Tender Offer Documents before they are filed with the SEC. CIG, the NBCU Entities and their respective counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review the initial Schedule 14D-9 before it is filed with the SEC. In addition, CIG, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, agree to provide the other, the NBCU Entities and their respective counsel with any comments or other communications that either party or their counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Schedule 14D-9 or the Tender Offer Documents promptly after the receipt of such comments or other communications. The Company, the NBCU Entities and their respective counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any response of CIG to comments or other communications from the SEC or any amended or revised Tender Offer Documents before it is filed with the SEC. CIG, the NBCU Entities and their respective counsel shall be given a reasonable opportunity to review any response of the Company to comments or other communications from the SEC or any amended or revised Schedule 14D-9 before it is filed with the SEC. (d) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, promptly after the expiration of the “initial offering period” (as such term is defined in Rule 14d-1(g)(4) under the Exchange Act) and, if applicable, promptly in accordance with Rule 14d-11 under the Exchange Act, during the Subsequent Period, CIG shall accept for payment and pay for, in accordance with the terms of the Tender Offer, all of the shares of Class A Common Stock validly tendered pursuant to the Tender Offer and not validly withdrawn. (e) If the payment of the Offer Price is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered certificate formerly evidencing shares of Class A Common Stock is registered on the stock transfer books of the Company, it shall be a condition of payment that the certificate so surrendered shall be endorsed properly or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such payment shall have paid all transfer and other taxes required by reason of the payment of the Offer Price to a Person other than the registered holder of the certificate surrendered, or shall have established to the satisfaction of CIG that such taxes either have been paid or are not applicable.

  • Change of Control Offer If a Change of Control Triggering Event (defined below) occurs, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem the Securities as provided for herein, the Company shall be required to make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each holder of the Securities to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that holder’s Securities on the terms set forth herein. In a Change of Control Offer, the Company shall be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Securities repurchased to the date of repurchase (a “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event or, at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control (defined below), but after public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed to holders of the Securities a notice describing the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase such Securities on the date specified in the notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (a “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice shall, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. In order to accept any Change of Control Offer, a holder shall be required to comply with instructions for tendering contained in the Company’s notice of such Change of Control Offer as well as the applicable procedures of the Depositary. On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful: (i) accept for payment all Securities or portions of such Securities properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Securities or portions of such Securities properly tendered; and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Securities properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Securities or portions of such Securities being repurchased. On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Paying Agent shall pay, from funds deposited by the Company for such purpose, to each holder of Securities properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Securities, and the Trustee will authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each holder a new Security equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of such holder’s Securities surrendered. The Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company and the third party purchases all Securities properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In addition, the Company shall not repurchase any Securities if there has occurred and is continuing on the Change of Control Payment Date an Event of Default under the Indenture, other than a default in the payment of the Change of Control Payment upon a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act or any other securities laws or regulations thereunder that are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Securities conflict with the Change of Control Offer provisions hereof, the Company shall comply with those securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Securities by virtue of any such conflict. For purposes of the Change of Control Offer, the following have the meanings ascribed to them as set forth below:
