Here “now that” is used as a conjunction, meaning “since”, showing effect of an event or change or a consequence of the fact. e.g. Now (that) John has arrived, we can begin.

This is common when the relative clause is modifying a time expression. e.g. the day I arrived was Thursday. 16)Unable to engage in many activities,.

(opposite to the future time) e.g. If anyone should call, please let me know. If it should be necessary, I should come at six. C.
