Meeting of Stockholders (a) If required to effect the Merger, the Company shall, consistent with applicable Law and its Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws, call and hold a special meeting of Stockholders, as promptly as practicable following acceptance of the shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to the Offer, for the purpose of voting upon the adoption or approval of this Agreement (the "Special Meeting"), and shall use all reasonable efforts to hold its Special Meeting as soon as practicable thereafter. At the Special Meeting all of the shares of Company Common Stock then owned by Parent, Merger Sub or any other subsidiary of Parent shall be voted to approve the Merger and this Agreement. The Company shall, subject to the applicable fiduciary duties of its directors, as determined by such directors in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel (who may be its regularly engaged outside legal counsel), (1) use all reasonable efforts to solicit from Stockholders proxies in favor of the adoption or approval, as the case may be, of the Merger, (2) take all other action necessary or advisable to secure the vote or consent of Stockholders, as required by the DGCL to obtain such adoption or approvals, and (3) include in the Proxy Statement the recommendation of its Board of Directors in favor of the Merger.
(b) Parent and Merger Sub shall not, and they shall cause their Subsidiaries not to, sell, transfer, assign, encumber or otherwise dispose of the shares of Company Common Stock acquired pursuant to the Offer or otherwise prior to the Special Meeting; provided, however, that this Section 7.3(b) shall not apply to the sale, transfer, assignment, encumbrance or other disposition of any or all of such shares in transactions involving solely Parent, Merger Sub and/or one or more of their wholly-owned Subsidiaries.
(c) Parent shall vote (or consent with respect to) any shares of common stock of Merger Sub beneficially owned by it, or with respect to which it has the power (by agreement, proxy, or otherwise) to cause to be voted (or to provide a consent), in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and the Merger at any meeting of the stockholders of Merger Sub at which this Agreement and the Merger shall be submitted for adoption and at all adjournments or postponements thereof (or, if applicable, by any action of the stockholders of Merger Sub by consent in lieu of a meeting).

Regular meetings of the members may be held without notice at a time and place as may be determined by the members. Any member may call a special meeting of the members by giving thirty (30) days prior written notice of the time, place and purpose of the meeting to the other members.
