Regulatory Approvals and Saving Clause Sample Clauses

The Regulatory Approvals and Saving Clause ensures that the agreement is subject to obtaining all necessary regulatory consents and approvals required by law. In practice, this means that the parties are not obligated to proceed with the transaction or fulfill certain obligations until all relevant governmental or regulatory bodies have granted their approval. For example, if a merger requires antitrust clearance, the agreement will not be enforceable until such clearance is received. This clause protects the parties from legal or regulatory penalties and prevents the agreement from being invalidated due to non-compliance with mandatory regulations.
Regulatory Approvals and Saving Clause. The Parties recognize that the sale and delivery of capacity and energy under this Agreement may be subject to regulation by federal and state agencies having jurisdiction over the Agreement, Buyer, Seller and various aspects of the transmission and delivery of capacity and energy to Buyer. Any provision declared or rendered unlawful by any applicable court of law or such regulatory agency or deemed unlawful because of a statutory or regulatory change shall not otherwise affect the remaining lawful obligations that arise under the Agreement. In the event that any order of a court or regulatory agency with competent jurisdiction, including the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, results in substantive modification of the Agreement or otherwise affects the Parties’ economic benefits intended under the Agreement, the Parties shall use good faith efforts to reform the Agreement in order to give effect to the original intention and economic bargain of the Parties.
