Investigation by Buyer Buyer has conducted its own independent review and analysis of the business, operations, technology, assets, liabilities, results of operations, financial condition and prospects of the Companies and acknowledges that Sellers have provided Buyer with the access requested by Buyer to the personnel, properties, premises and records of the Companies for this purpose. In entering into this Agreement, Buyer has relied upon its own investigation and analysis as well as the representations and warranties of Sellers contained in this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, and Buyer (a) acknowledges that none of Sellers, the Companies or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling Persons, agents or representatives makes or has made any representation or warranty, either express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of any of the information provided or made available to Buyer or its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling Persons, agents or representatives, and (b) agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that neither Sellers, the Companies nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling Persons, agents or representatives shall have any liability or responsibility whatsoever to Buyer or its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling Persons, agents or representatives on any basis (including, without limitation, in contract or tort, under federal or state securities laws or otherwise) based upon any information provided or made available, or statements made, to Buyer or its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, controlling Persons, agents or representatives (or any omissions therefrom), except in the case of clauses (a) and (b) as and only to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement with respect to the representations and warranties of Sellers in Article III and subject to the limitations and restrictions contained in this Agreement.
Investigation by Purchaser Seller will (a) provide Purchaser and its officers, employees, counsel, accountants, financial advisors, potential lenders, Purchaser's and potential lenders' consultants and other representatives (collectively, "Representatives") with full access, upon reasonable prior notice and during normal business hours, to the Employees and such other officers, employees and agents of Seller who have any responsibility for the PSE Colstrip Interests, to Seller's accountants and, subject to the terms and conditions of the Colstrip Contracts, to the Assets (including, to the extent it is within Seller's power to do so, access to the Colstrip 1, 2, 3 and 4 site), but only to the extent that such access does not unreasonably interfere with Seller's business and the operation of the Assets, (b) make available to Purchaser and its Representatives, upon request, a copy of each report, schedule or other document filed or received by Seller between the Bid Date and the Closing with or from the SEC, FERC, EPA, WUTC or any other relevant Governmental or Regulatory Authority and relating to the ownership, operation and maintenance of the Assets or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and all such information and data (including copies of Business Contracts, Transferable Permits, Fuel Contracts, Colstrip Contracts, and other Books and Records) concerning the ownership, operation and maintenance of the PSE Colstrip Interests and the Assets and the Assumed Liabilities as Purchaser or its Representatives reasonably may request in connection with such investigation, except to the extent that furnishing any such report, schedule, other documents, information or data would violate any Law, Order (including any protective order or similar confidentiality obligation), Contract, License or Environmental Permit applicable to Seller or by which any of its Assets and Properties is bound. In furtherance of the foregoing, Seller agrees to cooperate with Purchaser in connection with Purchaser's efforts to obtain Purchaser Financing, as defined in Section 5.07. Seller's cooperation shall include the negotiation and execution of a consent with the lenders with respect to the Operative Agreements, which consent shall include providing such lenders with rights to cure a Purchaser default under the Operative Agreements; provided, however, that Seller shall not be obligated, in connection with such cooperation or consent, to take any action or enter into any agreement that would have any adverse effect on Seller or any of its rights or benefits under this Agreement or the Operative Agreements.
Indemnification by Shareholders Each Shareholder shall, severally and not jointly, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, indemnify and hold harmless REIT, its subsidiaries each of their respective trustees, directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents, in their capacity as such and each Person, if any, who controls REIT within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, and the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “REIT Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Covered Liabilities suffered, directly or indirectly, by any REIT Indemnified Party by reason of or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission contained or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement under which the sale of Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act (or any amendment thereto), or any Prospectus, preliminary Prospectus, or free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) related to such Registration Statement or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to REIT by such Shareholder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that (i) the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 5.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Covered Liability if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Shareholder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and (ii) in no event shall the total amounts payable in indemnity by a Shareholder under this Section 5.2 exceed the net proceeds received by such Shareholder in the registered offering out of which such Covered Liability arises. The indemnity in this Section 5.2 shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any REIT Indemnified Person. For the avoidance of doubt, a Shareholder is not a “REIT Indemnified Party.”
Indemnification by Shareholder Shareholder shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, indemnify and hold harmless INC, its subsidiaries, each of their respective directors, trustees, officers, employees, representatives and agents, in their capacity as such and each Person, if any, who controls INC within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, and the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “INC Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Covered Liabilities suffered, directly or indirectly, by any INC Indemnified Party by reason of or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission contained or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement under which the sale of Registrable Securities owned by Shareholder was registered under the Securities Act (or any amendment thereto), or any Prospectus, preliminary Prospectus, or free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) related to such Registration Statement or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to INC by Shareholder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that (i) the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 4.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Covered Liability if such settlement is effected without the consent of Shareholder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and (ii) in no event shall the total amounts payable in indemnity by Shareholder under this Section 4.2 exceed the net proceeds received by Shareholder in the registered offering out of which such Covered Liability arises. The indemnity in this Section 4.2 shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any INC Indemnified Person. For the avoidance of doubt, Shareholder is not an “INC Indemnified Party.”
Indemnification by Stockholders Each Stockholder, if Registrable Securities held by it are included in the securities as to which a registration is being effected, agrees to, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its directors and officers, each other Person who participates as an Underwriter in the offering or sale of such securities, each Person who controls the Company or any such Underwriter (within the meaning of the Securities Act) and any other Person selling Common Shares in such Registration Statement against any and all Claims, insofar as such Claims arise out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or Prospectus (including any preliminary, final or summary prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto) related to such registration, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Stockholder or its representative for use therein; provided, however, that the aggregate amount which any such Stockholder shall be required to pay pursuant to this Section 5.2 shall in no event be greater than the amount of the net proceeds received by such Stockholder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement giving rise to such Claims less all amounts previously paid by such Stockholder with respect to any such Claims. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of such securities by such Stockholder or Underwriter.
Cooperation by Holders The Partnership shall have no obligation to include Registrable Securities of a Holder in a Registration Statement or in an Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section 2.03(a) if such Holder has failed to timely furnish such information that the Partnership determines, after consultation with its counsel, is reasonably required in order for any registration statement or prospectus supplement, as applicable, to comply with the Securities Act.
Action by Holders Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the Holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action, the Holders of such specified percentage have joined therein may be evidenced (a) by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by Holders in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing, or (b) by the record of the Holders voting in favor thereof at any meeting of Holders duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article 9, or (c) by a combination of such instrument or instruments and any such record of such a meeting of Holders. Whenever the Company or the Trustee solicits the taking of any action by the Holders of the Notes, the Company or the Trustee may, but shall not be required to, fix in advance of such solicitation, a date as the record date for determining Holders entitled to take such action. The record date if one is selected shall be not more than fifteen days prior to the date of commencement of solicitation of such action.
Information by Holders The Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder or Holders, the Registrable Securities held by them and the distribution proposed by such Holder or Holders as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that the obligations of the Company under Article I or II are conditioned on the timely provisions of the foregoing information by such Holder or Holders and, without limitation of the foregoing, will be conditioned on compliance by such Holder or Holders with the following:
Action by Securityholders Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the holders of a specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action) the fact that at the time of taking any such action the holders of such specified percentage have joined therein may be evidenced (a) by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by such Securityholders in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing, or (b) by the record of such holders of Debentures voting in favor thereof at any meeting of such Securityholders duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article VIII, or (c) by a combination of such instrument or instruments and any such record of such a meeting of such Securityholders or (d) by any other method the Trustee deems satisfactory. If the Company shall solicit from the Securityholders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action or revocation of the same, the Company may, at its option, as evidenced by an Officers' Certificate, fix in advance a record date for such Debentures for the determination of Securityholders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action or revocation of the same, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action or revocation of the same may be given before or after the record date, but only the Securityholders of record at the close of business on the record date shall be deemed to be Securityholders for the purposes of determining whether Securityholders of the requisite proportion of outstanding Debentures have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action or revocation of the same, and for that purpose the outstanding Debentures shall be computed as of the record date; provided, however, that no such authorization, agreement or consent by such Securityholders on the record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than 6 months after the record date.
Approval by Shareholders The Trust will call a meeting of the shareholders of the Selling Fund to consider and act upon this Agreement and to take all other action necessary to obtain approval of the transactions contemplated herein.
