Acquisition Proposal “Acquisition Proposal” shall mean any offer or proposal (other than an offer or proposal made or submitted by Parent) contemplating or otherwise relating to any Acquisition Transaction.
Acquisition Proposals In the case of the Company, it shall not, --------------------- and it shall cause the Company Subsidiaries not to, solicit or encourage inquiries or proposals with respect to, or furnish any nonpublic information relating to or participate in any negotiations or discussions concerning, any acquisition or purchase of all or a substantial portion of the assets of, or a substantial equity interest in, the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries or any merger or other business combination with the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries (an "Acquisition Proposal") other than as contemplated by this Plan; it shall instruct its and the Company Subsidiaries' officers, directors, agents, advisors and affiliates to refrain from taking any action that would violate or conflict with any of the foregoing; and it shall notify First Union immediately if any such inquiries or proposals are received by, or any such negotiations or discussions are sought to be initiated with, the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries. However, if the Company is not otherwise in breach or violation of this Section 5.07, until the stockholder ------------ approval contemplated by Section 6.01(A) shall have been obtained, the Company --------------- Board of Directors may, directly or indirectly through representatives: (a) provide information to and request information from a person (a "Bidder") that submits, after the date hereof, a bona fide Acquisition Proposal that the Company Board of Directors in good faith determines is reasonably likely to constitute a Superior Proposal (as hereinafter defined), and engage in discussions with the Bidder for the sole purpose of ascertaining whether such Acquisition Proposal is in fact a Superior Proposal; and (b) engage in negotiations or discussions concerning such Acquisition Proposal, if the Company Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with and based on the advice of outside counsel and a nationally recognized financial advisor that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal. For purposes of this Plan, a "Superior Proposal" means an Acquisition Proposal made by a third party which, in the good faith judgment of the Company Board of Directors, taking into account, to the extent deemed appropriate by the Company Board of Directors, the various legal, financial and regulatory aspects of the proposal and the person making such proposal, (x) if accepted, is reasonably likely to be consummated, and (y) if consummated, is reasonably likely to result in a more favorable transaction than the transaction contemplated hereunder considering, among other things, and to the extent deemed appropriate in good faith by the Company Board of Directors, the long-term prospects and interests of the Company and its stockholders and other relevant constituencies. The Company shall immediately notify First Union of the receipt of any Acquisition Proposal and shall promptly notify First Union of any significant actions taken or other developments related thereto. The Company also agrees immediately to cease and to cause to be terminated any activities, discussions or negotiations conducted on or prior to the date of this Plan with any parties other than First Union, with respect to any of the foregoing.
Conclusions and Recommendations The literature review (see Appendix C) indicates a range of buffer width recommendations for protecting the shade function. Based on the XXXXX curve reported in this section of the report, approximately 1 SPTH (estimated at 61 meters or 200 ft) will provide nearly 100 percent effectiveness of the buffer to protect the intertidal from desiccation, elevated temperatures, and other shade-related functions. Of course, in nonforested community types (e.g., prairie and grasslands) the shade function from overstory trees may be unattainable. To maximize the buffer’s effectiveness to provide the shade function, the following actions are recommended: • Avoid disturbance to native vegetation in riparian areas, especially nearer the water’s edge. • Retain, restore, and enhance mature trees and a multi-layered canopy and understory of native vegetation at sites that support these types of plant communities. • Ensure that riparian areas can be maintained in mature, native vegetation through time. • Prevent modifications to banks and bluffs (e.g., armoring) that could disrupt natural processes (such as soil creep, development of backshore and overhanging vegetation, recruitment of wood and other organic matter to riparian area including beaches and banks.) • Prohibit cutting and topping of trees and avoid “limbing” (selective branch cutting to enhance views) of trees for view corridors and other purposes within buffers.
Notice of Change of Control Each occasion that any Change of Control shall occur and such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the particulars of each such occasion.
