Equitable Division Sample Clauses
The Equitable Division clause establishes a framework for fairly distributing assets, property, or responsibilities between parties, typically in the context of dissolution of a partnership, marriage, or joint venture. In practice, this clause requires that the division be based on principles of fairness rather than strict equality, taking into account factors such as each party's contributions, needs, and circumstances. Its core function is to ensure that the outcome is just and reasonable for all involved, addressing potential disputes by providing a clear method for dividing shared interests.
Equitable Division. The Transaction Entities and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 6(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 6(d) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.
