Further Action; Efforts Clause Samples
The "Further Action; Efforts" clause requires parties to take additional steps or use reasonable efforts to fulfill the agreement’s objectives, even if those steps are not explicitly detailed elsewhere in the contract. In practice, this may involve signing extra documents, providing necessary information, or cooperating to resolve unforeseen issues that arise during the execution of the agreement. The core function of this clause is to ensure that both parties remain committed to achieving the contract’s intent and can address gaps or ambiguities without renegotiating the entire agreement.

In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each party hereto agrees (i) to make an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act and any other applicable Antitrust Law with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby as promptly as practicable after the date hereof, (ii) to supply as promptly as reasonably practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act or any other applicable Antitrust Law and (iii) use its reasonable best efforts to take or cause to be taken all other actions necessary, proper or advisable to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods with respect to the approval of the Offer, the Merger under the HSR Act and any other applicable Antitrust Laws.
