Common use of Matching right Clause in Contracts

Matching right. (a) Prior to Company (or any Company Subsidiary) entering into any binding or definitive agreement or other arrangement with any third Person with respect to any Company Third Party Transaction following the negotiations described in Section 4.4(b), Company will send written notice to DWA (the “DWA Matching Right Notice”), which notice must contain the material terms and conditions (financial and otherwise) of any such proposed agreement or other arrangement. (b) For a period of thirty (30) days following DWA’s receipt of the DWA Matching Right Notice (the thirtieth (30th) day following the date of such receipt, the “DWA Matching Right Expiration Date”), DWA or an Affiliate of DWA may elect to enter into an agreement with Company (or the applicable Company Subsidiary) on the terms and conditions described in the Matching Right Notice. If DWA or such Affiliate so elects, then Company will (or will cause such Company Subsidiary to) enter into an agreement with DWA or such Affiliate on the terms and conditions set forth in the DWA Matching Right Notice, and the Parties will agree upon and enter into an agreement on the terms and conditions set forth in the DWA Matching Right Notice prior to the DWA Matching Right Expiration Date. If DWA or such Affiliate does not elect to enter into such an agreement with Company (or the applicable Company Subsidiary), or the Parties are unable to agree upon and enter into an agreement prior to the DWA Matching Right Expiration Date, then Company (or such Company Subsidiary) may enter into a definitive agreement with the relevant third Person on the terms and conditions set forth in the DWA Matching Right Notice; provided, however, that if Company (or such Company Subsidiary) and such third Person do not enter into a definitive agreement and consummate the applicable Company Third Party Transaction prior to the thirtieth (30th) day following the DWA Matching Right Expiration Date, the provisions of Sections 4.4 and 4.5 will again apply to any such Company Third Party Transaction.
