Speculative Transactions Engage, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to engage, in any transaction involving commodity options or futures contracts or any similar speculative transactions.
Speculative Investment Purchaser’s investment in the Company represented by the Plan Shares is highly speculative in nature and is subject to a high degree of risk of loss in whole or in part. The amount of such investment is within Purchaser’s risk capital means and is not so great in relation to Purchaser’s total financial resources as would jeopardize the personal financial needs of Purchaser or Purchaser’s family in the event such investment were lost in whole or in part.
Hedging (a) The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, enter into any Interest Hedge Agreements (subject in each case to (i) satisfaction of the Rating Condition and (ii) unless the cost of such Interest Hedge Agreement is paid in full at the time it is executed, the prior written consent of the Majority Lenders). The Borrower will not amend or replace any Interest Hedge Agreement unless the Rating Condition shall have been satisfied in connection with such amendment or replacement and the Majority Lenders have provided their prior written consent thereto. The Borrower (or the Services Provider on behalf of the Borrower) shall promptly provide written notice of entry into, and the amendment or replacement of, any Interest Hedge Agreement to the Agents and the Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Borrower (or the Services Provider on behalf of the Borrower) shall not enter into any Interest Hedge Agreement (A) unless it obtains written advice of counsel that (1) the written terms of the derivative directly relate to the Collateral Loans and (2) such derivative reduces the interest rate and/or foreign exchange risks related to the Collateral Loans and the Loans and (B) that would cause the Borrower to be considered a “commodity pool” as defined in Section 1a(10) of the Commodity Exchange Act unless (i) the Services Provider, and no other party, including but not limited to the Collateral Agent, the Custodian and the Administrative Agent, is registered as a “commodity pool operator” as defined in Section 1(a)(11) of the Commodity Exchange Act and “commodity trading advisor” as defined in Section 1(a)(12) of the Commodity Exchange Act with the CFTC or (ii) with respect to the Borrower as the commodity pool, the Services Provider would be eligible for an exemption from registration as a commodity pool operator and commodity trading advisor and all conditions for obtaining the exemption have been satisfied. The Services Provider agrees that for so long as the Borrower is a commodity pool, the Services Provider will take all actions necessary to ensure ongoing compliance with, as the case may be, either (x) the applicable exemption from registration as a commodity pool operator and/or a commodity trading advisor with respect to the Borrower or (y) the applicable registration requirements as a commodity pool operator and/or a commodity trading advisor with respect to the Borrower, and will in each case take any other actions required as a commodity pool operator and/or a commodity trading advisor with respect to the Borrower.
No Speculative Transactions No Credit Party shall engage in any transaction involving commodity options, futures contracts or similar transactions, except solely to hedge against fluctuations in the prices of commodities owned or purchased by it and the values of foreign currencies receivable or payable by it and interest swaps, caps or collars.
No Hedging Subscriber hereby agrees that neither it, nor any person or entity acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it, shall execute any short sales or engage in other hedging transactions of any kind with respect to the Acquired Shares during the period from the date of this Subscription Agreement through the Closing (or such earlier termination of this Subscription Agreement). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, nothing in this Section 7(b) shall prohibit such persons from engaging in hedging transactions with respect to other securities of the Issuer, including Class A Ordinary Shares or Class A Common Stock acquired in open market purchases, so long as such person does not create any “put equivalent position,” as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act, or short sale positions, with respect to the Acquired Shares, nor shall this Section 7(b) prohibit any other investment adviser with the Subscriber that has no knowledge of this Subscription Agreement or of Subscriber’s participation in this transaction (including Subscriber’s controlled affiliates and/or affiliates) from entering into any short sales or engaging in other hedging transactions; and in the case of a Subscriber that is a multi-managed investment bank or vehicle whereby separate portfolio managers or desks manage separate portions of such Subscriber’s assets and the portfolio managers or desks have no knowledge of the investment decisions made by the portfolio managers or desks managing other portions of such Subscriber’s assets, this Section 7(b) shall only apply with respect to the portion of assets managed by the portfolio manager or desk that made the investment decision to purchase the Acquired Shares covered by this Subscription Agreement.
Interest Rate Hedging (a) Enter into within ninety (90) days of the Closing Date (or such longer period as may be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), and maintain for a period of not less than two (2) years thereafter, interest rate Swap Contracts with Persons reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, covering a notional amount of not less than 50% of the aggregate outstanding amount of the Closing Date Term Facility.
Swap Agreements The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into any Swap Agreement, except (a) Swap Agreements entered into to hedge or mitigate risks to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary has actual exposure (other than those in respect of Equity Interests of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries), and (b) Swap Agreements entered into in order to effectively cap, collar or exchange interest rates (from fixed to floating rates, from one floating rate to another floating rate or otherwise) with respect to any interest-bearing liability or investment of the Borrower or any Subsidiary.
Limitation on Short Sales and Hedging Transactions The Buyer agrees that beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the date of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 11(k), the Buyer and its agents, representatives and affiliates shall not in any manner whatsoever enter into or effect, directly or indirectly, any (i) “short sale” (as such term is defined in Section 242.200 of Regulation SHO of the 0000 Xxx) of the Common Stock or (ii) hedging transaction, which establishes a net short position with respect to the Common Stock.
Hedging Arrangements To the extent any Affiliate of a Lender is a party to a Secured Hedging Agreement with the Borrower, such Affiliate of a Lender shall be deemed to appoint the Administrative Agent its nominee and agent, and to act for and on behalf of such Affiliate in connection with the Security Documents and to be bound by this Article IX.
Hedging Agreements The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into any Hedging Agreement, other than Hedging Agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business to hedge or mitigate risks to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary is exposed in the conduct of its business or the management of its liabilities.
