Section 368 Reorganization For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Share Exchange is intended to constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Code. The parties to this Agreement hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) of the United States Treasury Regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that no party is making any representation or warranty as to the qualification of the Share Exchange as a reorganization under Section 368 of the Code or as to the effect, if any, that any transaction consummated prior to the Closing Date has or may have on any such reorganization status. The parties acknowledge and agree that each (i) has had the opportunity to obtain independent legal and tax advice with respect to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) is responsible for paying its own Taxes, including without limitation, any adverse Tax consequences that may result if the transaction contemplated by this Agreement is not determined to qualify as a reorganization under Section 368 of the Code.
Merger or Reorganization If at any time there shall be any reorganization, recapitalization, merger or consolidation (a “Reorganization”) involving the Company (other than as otherwise provided for herein or as would cause the expiration of this Warrant under Section 8) in which shares of the Company’s stock are converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property, then, as a part of such Reorganization, lawful provision shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property of the successor corporation resulting from such Reorganization, equivalent in value to that which a holder of the Shares deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled in such Reorganization if the right to purchase the Shares hereunder had been exercised immediately prior to such Reorganization. In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the successor corporation) shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder after such Reorganization to the end that the provisions of this Warrant shall be applicable after the event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares or other securities deliverable after that event upon the exercise of this Warrant.
Reorganization, etc To consent to or participate in any plan for the reorganization, consolidation or merger of any corporation or issuer, any security or debt instrument of which is or was held in the Trust; to consent to any contract, lease, mortgage, purchase or sale of property by such corporation or issuer, and to pay calls or subscriptions with respect to any security or debt instrument held in the Trust;
Tax-Free Reorganization The Merger is intended to be a tax-free plan or reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Adjustment for Merger or Reorganization, etc Subject to the provisions of Subsection 3.3, if there shall occur any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation or merger involving the Corporation in which the Common Stock (but not the Preferred Stock) is converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property (other than a transaction covered by Subsections 5.4, 5.6 or 5.7), then, following any such reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation or merger, each share of Preferred Stock not so converted shall thereafter be convertible in lieu of the Common Stock into which it was convertible prior to such event into the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property which a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation issuable upon conversion of one share of such Preferred Stock immediately prior to such reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, consolidation or merger would have been entitled to receive pursuant to such transaction; and, in such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Board) shall be made in the application of the provisions in this Section 5 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the holders of Preferred Stock, to the end that the provisions set forth in this Section 5 (including provisions with respect to changes in and other adjustments of the applicable Conversion Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of such Preferred Stock.
Merger or Consolidation Conversion Reorganization (a) Merger or Consolidation. (1) Pursuant to an agreement of merger or consolidation, the Board of Trustees may cause the Trust or any of its subsidiaries to merge or consolidate with or into one or more statutory trusts or “other business entities” (as defined in Section 3801 of the Delaware Act) formed or organized or existing under the laws of the State of Delaware or any other state of the United States or any foreign country or other foreign jurisdiction. Any such merger or consolidation shall require approval by vote of the Board of Trustees followed by approval of the Shareholders as set forth in Section 9.1. (2) By reference to Section 3815(f) of the Delaware Act, any agreement of merger or consolidation approved in accordance with this Section 9.3(a) may, without a separate Shareholder vote, unless required by the 1940 Act or the requirements of any stock exchange on which Shares are listed for trading, effect any amendment to the Governing Instrument or effect the adoption of a new governing instrument if the Trust is the surviving or resulting statutory trust in the merger or consolidation, which amendment or new governing instrument shall be effective at the effective time or date of the merger or consolidation. (3) If the Trust is to be the surviving or resulting statutory trust, any one (1) Trustee shall execute, and cause to be filed, a certificate of merger or consolidation in accordance with Section 3815 of the Delaware Act.
Recapitalization, Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale In case the Company shall reorganize its capital, reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there is a change in or distribution with respect to the Shares of the Company), or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its property, assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation (“Other Property”), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of the Company, then the Participant shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Option, the number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company’s Shares, if it is the surviving corporation, and Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by the Participant of the number of Shares of for which this Option is exercisable immediately prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Option to be performed and observed by the Company and all the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may be deemed appropriate (as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of Shares for which this Option is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 7 of this Option. For purposes of this Section 7(b), “common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation” shall include stock of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and which is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a specified date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of this Section 7 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets.
Reclassification, Reorganization and Consolidation In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or change in the capital stock of the Company (other than as a result of a subdivision, combination or stock dividend provided for in Section 7(a) above), then, as a condition of such reclassification, reorganization or change, lawful provision shall be made, and duly executed documents evidencing the same from the Company or its successor shall be delivered to the Holder, so that the Holder shall have the right at any time prior to the expiration of this Warrant to purchase, at a total price equal to that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities or property receivable in connection with such reclassification, reorganization or change by a holder of the same number and type of securities as were purchasable as Shares by the Holder immediately prior to such reclassification, reorganization or change. In any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interest of the Holder so that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect to any shares of stock or other securities or property deliverable upon exercise hereof, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the Exercise Price per Share payable hereunder, provided the aggregate Exercise Price shall remain the same.
Reorganization Events (a) In the event that, prior to the Mandatory Conversion Date there occurs: (i) any consolidation, merger or other similar business combination of the Corporation with or into another Person, in each case pursuant to which the Common Stock will be converted into cash, securities or other property of the Corporation or another Person; (ii) any sale, transfer, lease or conveyance to another Person of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Corporation, in each case pursuant to which the Common Stock will be converted into cash, securities or other property of the Corporation or another Person; or (iii) any reclassification of the Common Stock into securities including securities other than the Common Stock; (any such event specified in this Section 11(a), a “Reorganization Event”), then each share of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Reorganization Event shall remain outstanding but shall automatically convert, effective as of the close of business on the Mandatory Conversion Date, into the type and amount of securities, cash and other property receivable in such Reorganization Event by the holder (excluding the counterparty to the Reorganization Event or an Affiliate of such counterparty) of that number of shares of Common Stock into which the share of Series B Preferred Stock would then be convertible (and for the purpose of such calculation, shares of Common Stock sufficient for the full conversion of all shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be deemed to be authorized for issuance under the Certificate of Incorporation on such date) (such securities, cash and other property, the “Exchange Property”). (b) In the event that holders of the shares of Common Stock have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in such transaction, the consideration that the Holders are entitled to receive shall be deemed to be the types and amounts of consideration received by the majority of the holders of the shares of Common Stock that affirmatively make an election. The amount of Exchange Property receivable upon conversion of any Series B Preferred Stock in accordance with Section 8 shall be determined based upon the Conversion Price in effect on the date of consummation of the Reorganization Event. (c) The above provisions of this Section 11 shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events and the provisions of Section 10 shall apply to any shares of capital stock of the Corporation (or any successor) received by the holders of the Common Stock in any such Reorganization Event. (d) The Corporation (or any successor) shall, within twenty (20) days of the occurrence of any Reorganization Event, provide written notice to the Holders of such occurrence of such event and of the kind and amount of the cash, securities or other property that constitutes the Exchange Property. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the operation of this Section 11. (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11 or otherwise in this Certificate of Amendment, the Corporation shall not enter into any agreement for a transaction constituting a Fundamental Change unless such agreement (i) entitles Holders to receive, on an as-converted basis, the securities, cash and other property receivable in such transaction by a holder of shares of Common Stock that was not the counterparty to such transaction or an Affiliate of such other party as described in Section 11(a), (ii) provides that each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be converted into the number of shares of Common Stock as provided in Section 8 or (iii) provides that (1) the Series B Preferred Stock remains outstanding or, in the case of any such merger or consolidation with respect to which the Corporation is not the surviving or resulting entity, is converted into or exchanged for preferred securities of the surviving or resulting entity or its ultimate parent, that is an entity organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and (2) such Series B Preferred Stock remaining outstanding or such preferred securities, as the case may be, have such rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, taken as a whole, as are not materially less favorable to the Holders thereof than the rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers of the Series B Preferred Stock, taken as a whole. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall prohibit the Corporation from entering into or consummating a transaction constituting a Fundamental Change provided that the Series B Preferred Stock is treated as set forth in the preceding sentence.
Pre-Closing Reorganization Buyer agrees that any or all of the Sellers may, at any time before Closing, implement a reorganization (“Pre-Closing Reorganization”) in the manner described at SCHEDULE T, provided that any new shareholders arising as a result of such reorganization will be bound by the terms of this Agreement, deemed to be “Sellers” for the purpose of this Agreement, obliged to sell their shares in the Relevant Holdco to the Buyer on the terms and conditions contained herein, and required to provide all of the representations, warranties and covenants that are provided by the Sellers herein, shall assume all liabilities and duties of any shareholder or Seller for whom such shareholder is the successor in interest, and provided further that the Pre-Closing Reorganization: (a) will not have the effect of imposing any incremental obligations for Taxes for the Buyer, the Holdcos, the Corporation or the Subsidiaries; and (b) will not have an adverse effect on Holdcos, the Corporation or the Subsidiaries or their respective businesses or Assets or impose any cost, liability or expense on any of them that is not reimbursed by Sellers. No Pre-Closing Reorganization will be considered in determining whether a representation, warranty or covenant of the Sellers hereunder has been breached, other than pursuant to the terms of this Section 5.9 but excluding the consideration of the Competition Act Approval. The Sellers will provide written notice to the Buyer upon completion of any Pre-Closing Reorganization together with an updated SCHEDULE A reflecting any changes to Sellers, Shares and Purchase Price allocation resulting from the Pre-Closing Reorganization (which updated SCHEDULE A will be deemed to be incorporated into and form part of this Agreement), and access to all relevant documentation relating to such Pre-Closing Reorganization.
