Adjustment of Merger Consideration Sample Clauses

The Adjustment of Merger Consideration clause defines how the final price or payment terms in a merger transaction may be modified after the initial agreement. Typically, this clause outlines specific conditions or events—such as changes in working capital, outstanding debt, or other financial metrics at closing—that can trigger an increase or decrease in the amount paid to the sellers. By providing a mechanism to account for fluctuations in the target company's financial position between signing and closing, this clause ensures that the final consideration accurately reflects the company's value at the time of transfer, thereby protecting both parties from unforeseen financial discrepancies.

Adjustment of Merger Consideration. Parent and the Company agree that if the aggregate Stock Consideration excluding fractional shares for which cash is to be received pursuant to this Agreement (“Net Stock Consideration”) (based on the last closing price per share of Parent Common Stock as reported on the NYSE composite transactions reporting system prior to the Closing) is less than 40% of the aggregate Base Merger Consideration (as defined below), then the aggregate Net Stock Consideration shall be increased to equal 40% of the aggregate Base Merger Consideration and the aggregate Cash Consideration, when combined with any cash paid in respect of Dissenting Shares (computed as set forth below) and any cash deemed paid in lieu of fractional shares, shall be decreased to 60% of the aggregate Base Merger Consideration, in each case determined by reference to such closing price, and such adjustments to the aggregate Merger Consideration shall be applied pro rata to the Merger Consideration payable in respect of each Share. For purposes of this Agreement, (i) the aggregate “Base Merger Consideration” shall mean the aggregate Merger Consideration (including any cash paid in lieu of fractional shares) plus cash paid in respect of Dissenting Shares, and (ii) the cash paid in respect of Dissenting Shares shall be deemed to be the aggregate market value (based on the last closing price per share of Parent Common Stock as reported on the NYSE composite transactions reporting system prior to the Closing) of the Merger Consideration that would have been paid in respect of such Dissenting Shares if the holders thereof had not elected to exercise their appraisal rights in respect of such Dissenting Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the provisions of this Section 4.1(d) cause the value of the aggregate Merger Consideration (with the aggregate Stock Consideration to be valued based on the last closing price per share of Parent Common Stock as reported on the NYSE composite transactions reporting system prior to the Closing) after giving effect to this Section 4.1(d) to exceed the aggregate Merger Consideration that would be paid absent the provisions of this Section 4.1(d).
