Definitions of. “Cause” and “Good Reason” - For purposes of this Agreement, the terms “Cause” and “Good Reason” shall have the following meanings:
Definitions of. ‘agreement’ and ‘collective noun’ The word 'agreement' (or concord) can be defined as “a formal relationship between elements, whereby a form of one word requires a corresponding form of another” (Crystal 1997: 14), or, according to Xxxxx et al (1985: 755) concord can be defined as the relationship between two grammatical units such that one of them displays a feature (e.g. plurality) that accords with a displayed (or semantically implicit) feature in the other. Quirk et al’s definition makes one important thing explicit, namely, that a form can sometimes agree with a feature of another that is only implicitly present, but is not visible in the latter’s form. In our case, this feature is the formally unexpressed idea of plurality, which underlies collective noun subjects. Most linguists say that when it comes to collective nouns, singular agreement is used when the referent of the noun is thought of as a unit and plural agreement when the referent of the noun is thought of as a number of individuals (Xxxxx 2001:11). Xxxxxxxxx (1909–1949 II: 93) adds to this general statement that the issue of animacy should also be considered when one discusses collective nouns. Xxxxxxxxx accepts the definition of a collective as “a substantive which denotes a collection or number of individuals”, but, he says that plural agreement is only used when the noun denotes living beings. Although this goes a long way toward explaining patterns of agreement with collective nouns, more factors need to be taken into account before any conclusions can be drawn about singular/plural agreement with collective nouns. In this study we will address some of these additional factors (see Sections 4 and 5).
Definitions of. “subsidiary” and “Affiliate”. (a) When a reference is made in this Agreement to a subsidiary of a person, the term “subsidiary” means those entities of which such person owns or controls more than 50% of the outstanding equity securities either directly or through an unbroken chain of entities as to each of which more than 50% of the outstanding equity securities is owned directly or indirectly by its parent.
Definitions of. Transfer of the Property" and "Purchaser". As used herein, the term "Transfer of the Property" means any transfer of Borrower's interest in the Property by foreclosure, trustee's sale or other action or proceeding for the enforcement of the Deed of Trust or by deed in lieu thereof. The term "Purchaser", as used herein, means any transferee, including Bank, of the interest of Borrower as a result of any such Transfer of the Property and also includes any and all successors and assigns, including Bank, of such transferee.
Definitions of. “Person” and “Acting as a Group.” For purposes of this Appendix, “Person” shall have the meaning set forth in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). For purposes of this Appendix, Persons shall be considered to be “Acting as a Group” if they are owners of a corporation that enter into a merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of stock, or similar business transaction with OfficeMax or Subsidiary. If a Person, including an entity, owns stock in both corporations that enter into a merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of stock, or similar transaction, such shareholder is considered to be Acting as a Group with the other shareholders only with respect to the ownership in that corporation before the transaction giving rise to the change and not with respect to the ownership interest in the other corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Persons shall not be considered to be Acting as a Group solely because they purchase or own stock of the same corporation at the same time, or as a result of the same public offering.
