If Seller provides Transaction Support to a Customer for multiple components when ordering a competitor\u2019s vehicle, and Buyer does not wish to include all of Seller\u2019s components in a proposal to the Customer, then Seller will offer the same or dollar-value adjusted Transaction Support to the Customer when ordering vehicles supplied by the Buyer with less than all of the multiple components in question. For example, if Seller offers a Customer a $500 rebate for ordering a vehicle from Brand A that includes Seller\u2019s Product A, B, and C, and Buyer does not offer Seller\u2019s Product C to this Customer, then the Seller will offer such Customer a $500 rebate for ordering a vehicle from Buyer or will adjust the rebate to reflect the reduction in dollar value for the exclusion of Product C.", "snippet_links": [{"key": "seller-and-buyer", "type": "definition", "offset": [3, 19]}, {"key": "commercial-vehicle", "type": "definition", "offset": [43, 61]}, {"key": "to-provide", "type": "clause", "offset": [111, 121]}, {"key": "extended-warranties", "type": "clause", "offset": [134, 153]}, {"key": "the-customer", "type": "definition", "offset": [216, 228]}, {"key": "the-supplier", "type": "definition", "offset": [254, 266]}, {"key": "in-lieu-of", "type": "clause", "offset": [280, 290]}, {"key": "supplier-products", "type": "definition", "offset": [303, 320]}, {"key": "by-the-seller", "type": "clause", "offset": [402, 415]}, {"key": "a-commitment", "type": "definition", "offset": [640, 652]}, {"key": "product-supplier", "type": "clause", "offset": [665, 681]}, {"key": "product-offering", "type": "definition", "offset": [892, 908]}, {"key": "customer-for", "type": "clause", "offset": [957, 969]}, {"key": "all-of-seller", "type": "definition", "offset": [1063, 1076]}, {"key": "a-proposal", "type": "clause", "offset": [1093, 1103]}, {"key": "seller-will", "type": "clause", "offset": [1126, 1137]}, {"key": "by-the-buyer", "type": "clause", "offset": [1246, 1258]}, {"key": "for-example", "type": "definition", "offset": [1318, 1329]}, {"key": "customer-a", "type": "definition", "offset": [1350, 1360]}, {"key": "product-a", "type": "definition", "offset": [1432, 1441]}, {"key": "not-offer", "type": "clause", "offset": [1468, 1477]}, {"key": "product-c", "type": "definition", "offset": [1487, 1496]}, {"key": "reduction-in", "type": "definition", "offset": [1645, 1657]}, {"key": "dollar-value", "type": "definition", "offset": [1658, 1670]}, {"key": "exclusion-of", "type": "clause", "offset": [1679, 1691]}], "hash": "ce043b81ab32d0566eaa46b877d53753", "id": 9}, {"size": 1, "samples": [{"hash": "eKJBK1AlR4Z", "uri": "/contracts/eKJBK1AlR4Z#transaction-support", "label": "Transaction Support Agreement (Ingevity Corp)", "score": 31.5831623077, "published": true}], "snippet": "As a material inducement to Buyer to enter into the Purchase Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby and the other Transaction Documents (collectively, the \u201cTransactions\u201d), each Equityholder hereby acknowledges and agrees that he (a) has executed and delivered contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement, the written consent attached hereto as Exhibit B approving the Transactions on behalf of Seller and on behalf of each Company (in Seller\u2019s capacity as the sole member of each Company), (b) will not withdraw or rescind such written consent and (c) will take all reasonable actions to continue to approve and support the Transactions.
