soon as reasonably possible, and in any event no later than the Extended Termination Date (as defined in Section 7.01(b)) or, if applicable, the Final Termination Date (as defined in Section 7.01(b)), provided that the Company shall not be required to obtain any Consent from any person other than Governmental Entities unless Parent reimburses the Company for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in obtaining such Consent; provided, however, that the Company shall not pay or agree to pay any fee or other similar charge to any such person in order to obtain its Consent without the prior written approval of Parent not to be unreasonably withheld.

In furtherance of the foregoing, Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, take all such actions, including, without limitation, (x) proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order, or otherwise, the sale, divestiture or disposition of such assets or businesses of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or, after the Effective Time, of the Company or of any of its Subsidiaries and (y) otherwise taking or committing to take actions that limit or would limit Parent’s or its Subsidiaries’ (including, after the Effective Time, the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ as Subsidiaries of Parent) freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain, one or more of their respective businesses, product lines or assets, in each case as may be required in order to avoid the entry of any order, judgment, decree, injunction, temporary restraining order, or ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction or any Governmental Entity in any suit or proceeding, which would otherwise have the effect of preventing or materially delaying the Closing; provided further, however, that Parent shall not be required to take any such action, and the failure to do so shall not be deemed to be a failure to exercise its reasonable best efforts as required by this Section 5.04(a), if such actions, individually or in the aggregate, would require the sale, divestiture, licensing or other disposition in any form (collectively, a “Divestiture”) of any one or more businesses or assets, including without limitation, product lines, brands, or other particular types or groups of assets (collectively, the “Specified Assets”) and: (A) in the case of one or more required Divestitures of Specified Assets of Parent or one or more of its Subsidiaries, and/or the Company and or one or more of its Subsidiaries, that are sold at wholesale, such Specified Assets accounted for more than $85 million in the worldwide consolidated net sales of Parent or the Company, as the case may be, to all customers, including the amount of the intercompany sales of such Specified Assets by each party to its own retail division or retail segment, as the case may be; or (B) without limiting the applicability of clause (A) above, in the case of one or more required Divestitures of Specified Assets of Parent or one or more of its Subsidiaries, and/or the Company and one or more of its Subsidiaries, that are not sold at wholesale, including, without limitation, Specified Assets consisting of retail assets, such Specified Assets accounted for more than $100 million in the worldwide consolidated net sales of Parent or the Company, as the case may be; with, in each such case, consolidated net sales to be determined for the four most recently completed consecutive fiscal quarters of Parent and/or the Company, as the case may be.  Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall propose, negotiate, or commit to any such sale, divestiture or disposition of any of its assets, businesses or product lines without Parent’s prior written consent.
