No Inconsistent Actions. The parties hereto shall not voluntarily undertake or fail to undertake any action or course of action inconsistent with the provisions or essential intent of this Agreement. Furthermore, it is the intent of the parties hereto to act in a fair and reasonable manner with respect to the interpretation and application of the provisions of this Agreement.
No Inconsistent Actions. 19.1 Each Party hereto agrees that it will not voluntarily undertake any action or course of action inconsistent with the provisions or intent of this Agreement and, subject to the provisions of Articles 5.7 and 9 hereof, will promptly perform all acts and take all measures as may be appropriate to comply with the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement.
No Inconsistent Actions. Each of the Companies covenants and agrees that it will not take any action, and it will cause its Affiliates to refrain from taking any action, which is inconsistent with the Tax treatment of the Transactions as contemplated in the Ruling Request (any such action is referred to in this Section 11 as a "Prohibited Action"), unless such Prohibited Action is required by law, or the person acting has obtained the prior written consent of each of the other parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). With respect to any Prohibited Action proposed by a Company (the "Requesting Party"), the other party (the "Requested Party") shall grant its consent to such Prohibited Action if the Requesting Party obtains a ruling with respect to the Prohibited Action from the Internal Revenue Service or other applicable Tax Authority that is reasonably satisfactory to each of the Requested Party (except that the Requesting Party shall not submit any such ruling request if a Requested Party deter mines in good faith that filing such request might have a materially adverse effect upon such Requested Party). Without limiting the foregoing:
No Inconsistent Actions. (a) Each of the Companies covenants and agrees that it will use its best efforts to cause the Distributions to qualify under Section 355 of the Code. Each of the Companies covenants and agrees that it will not take or permit any action, and it will cause its Affiliates to refrain from taking or permitting any action, which may be inconsistent with the Tax treatment of the Transactions as contemplated in the Ruling Request or any Tax ruling received with respect to Tax consequences related to the Transaction in a foreign jurisdiction (any such action is referred to in this Section 10 as a "Tainting Act"), unless (i) the Company or Affiliate thereof proposing such Tainting Act (the "Requesting Party") either (A) obtains a ruling with respect to the Tainting Act from the IRS or other applicable Tax Authority that is reasonably satisfactory to each other Company (the "Requested Parties") (except that the Requesting Party shall not submit any such ruling request if a Requested Party determines in good faith that filing such request might have a materially adverse effect upon such Requested Party), or (B) obtains an unqualified opinion of independent nationally recognized tax counsel acceptable to each Requested Party, on a basis of assumed facts and representations consistent with the facts at the time of such action, that such Tainting Act will not affect the Tax treatment of the Transactions as contemplated in the Ruling Request, or (ii) each Requested Party consents in writing to such Tainting Act, which consent shall be granted or withheld in the sole and absolute discretion of each such Requested Party. A Tainting Act of a Company shall include a transaction involving that Company to which Section 355(e) of the Code is applicable, regardless of whether the Company could have prevented such transaction. Without limiting the foregoing:
No Inconsistent Actions. During the period from the date of this Agreement and continuing until the Closing Date, Seller will not (i) take or agree or commit to take any action that would make any representation and warranty of Seller inaccurate in any respect at, or as of any time prior to, the Closing Date, or (ii) omit or agree or commit to omit to take any action necessary to prevent any such representation or warranty from being inaccurate in any respect at any such time.
No Inconsistent Actions. Prior to the Effective Time, except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement, no party will enter into any transaction or make any agreement or commitment and will use reasonable efforts not to permit any event to occur, which could reasonably be anticipated to result in (x) a denial of the regulatory approvals referred to in Section 7.01(b) or (y) the imposition of any condition or requirement that would materially adversely affect the economic or business benefits to the Surviving Corporation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
No Inconsistent Actions. During the period from the date of this Agreement and continuing until the Closing Date, Parent and Buyer will not (i) take or agree or commit to take any action that would make any representation and warranty of Parent or Buyer inaccurate in any respect at, or as of any time prior to, the Closing Date or (ii) omit or agree or commit to omit to take any action necessary to prevent any such representation or warranty from being inaccurate in any respect at any such time.
No Inconsistent Actions. Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.
No Inconsistent Actions. It is the intent of the Parties hereto to act in a fair and reasonable manner with respect to the interpretation and application of the provisions of this Agreement.
No Inconsistent Actions. Except as contemplated by this Agreement and the Merger Agreement, the Stockholder shall not, during the term of this Agreement (a) transfer (which term shall include, without limitation, any sale, assignment, gift, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition), or consent to any transfer of, any or all of the Owned Shares owned by him or any interest therein, or create or permit to exist any Lien on the Owned Shares owned by him, (b) enter into any contract, option or other agreement or understanding with respect to any transfer of any or all of the Owned Shares owned by him or any interest therein, (c) grant any proxy, power-of- attorney or other authorization in or with respect to the Owned Shares owned by him, (d) deposit the Owned Shares owned by him into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to the Owned Shares owned by him, (e) take any other action that would in any way restrict, limit or interfere with the performance of his obligations hereunder or the transactions contemplated hereby or by the Merger Agreement or (f) object to, or otherwise commence or support any proceeding or material action to oppose, the Offer or take any action that is materially inconsistent with the covenants of the Stockholder included herein or would unreasonably delay the consummation of the Offer.
