Certificates and Payments 4.1 On the Effective Date Starcore will deposit the Starcore Shares with the Exchange Agent to satisfy the consideration issuable and/or payable to the Cxxxxx Shareholders pursuant to this Plan of Arrangement (other than registered Cxxxxx Shareholders validly exercising Dissent Rights and who have not withdrawn their notice of objection).
4.2 On the Effective Date Starcore will deposit cash in the aggregate amount equal to the Option Consideration per Cxxxxx Option with Cxxxxx to satisfy the consideration payable to the Cxxxxx Optionholders pursuant to this Plan of Arrangement.
4.3 After the Effective Date, certificates formerly representing Cxxxxx Shares which are held by a Cxxxxx Shareholder will, except for Cxxxxx Shares held by Dissenters, represent only the right to receive the consideration issuable and/or payable therefor pursuant to Section 3.1 in accordance with the terms of this Plan of Arrangement.
4.4 No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the Effective Date with respect to the Starcore Shares with a record date after the Effective Date will be payable or paid to the holder of any unsurrendered certificate or certificates for Cxxxxx Shares which, immediately prior to the Effective Date, represented outstanding Cxxxxx Shares and will not be payable or paid until the surrender of certificates for Cxxxxx Shares for exchange for the consideration issuable and/or payable therefor pursuant to Section 3.1 in accordance with the terms of this Plan of Arrangement.
4.5 As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date (subject to Section 6.2), the Exchange Agent will send a Transmittal Letter to each registered Cxxxxx Shareholder. Each registered Cxxxxx Shareholder that submits a duly completed Transmittal Letter to the Exchange Agent, together with the certificate (if any) representing the Cxxxxx Shares held by such Cxxxxx Shareholder, will receive from the Exchange Agent the certificates representing the Starcore Shares to which such Cxxxxx Shareholder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.1(b), which shares will be registered in such name or names and either (i) delivered to the address or addresses as such Cxxxxx Shareholder directed in their Transmittal Letter or (ii) made available for pick up at the offices of the Exchange Agent in accordance with the instructions of the Cxxxxx Shareholder in the Transmittal Letter.
4.6 As soon as practicable following the Effective Date, Cxxxxx will deliver to each holder of Cxxxxx Options, as reflected on the register maintained by or on behalf of Cxxxxx in respect of the Cxxxxx Option Plan, a cheque representing the cash payment which such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 3.1(c), less any amounts required to be withheld pursuant to Section 6.2.
4.7 Any certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Date represented outstanding Cxxxxx Shares and which has not been surrendered, with all other instruments required by this Article 4, on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date, will cease to represent any claim against or interest of any kind or nature in Cxxxxx, Starcore or the Exchange Agent.
4.8 In the event any certificate, which immediately before the Effective Time represented one or more outstanding Cxxxxx Shares that was exchanged pursuant to Section 3.1, is lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the consideration to which such Person is entitled in respect of the Cxxxxx Shares represented by such lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate pursuant to Section 3.1 deliverable in accordance with such Person’s Transmittal Letter. When authorizing such issuances or payment in exchange for any lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the Person to whom consideration is to be issued and/or paid will, as a condition precedent to the issuance and/or payment thereof, give a bond satisfactory to Starcore and its transfer agent in such sum as Starcore may direct or otherwise indemnify Starcore in a manner satisfactory to it, against any Claim that may be made against one or both of them with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.
Delivery of Share Certificates for Escrow Securities The Escrow Agent will send to each Securityholder any share certificates or other evidence of that Securityholder’s escrow securities in the possession of the Escrow Agent released from escrow as soon as reasonably practicable after the release.
Legended Share Certificates Exchangeco will cause each certificate representing Exchangeable Shares to bear an appropriate legend notifying the Beneficiaries of their right to instruct the Trustee with respect to the exercise of the Voting Rights in respect of the Exchangeable Shares of the Beneficiaries.
Share Certificates In lieu of issuing certificates for shares, the Trustees or the transfer agent either may issue receipts therefor or may keep accounts upon the books of the Trust for the record holders of such shares, who shall in either case, for all purposes hereunder, be deemed to be the holders of certificates for such shares as if they had accepted such certificates and shall be held to have expressly assented and agreed to the terms hereof. The Trustees at any time may authorize the issuance of share certificates. In that event, each shareholder shall be entitled to a certificate stating the number of shares owned by him or her, in such form as shall be prescribed from time to time by the Trustees. Such certificate shall be signed by the President or Vice President and by the Treasurer or Assistant Treasurer. Such signatures may be facsimile if the certificate is signed by a transfer agent, or by a registrar, other than a Trustee, officer or employee of the Trust. In case any officer who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed on such certificate shall cease to be such officer before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Trust with the same effect as if he or she were such officer at the time of its issue.
Legend on Share Certificates Each certificate representing any Shares issued after the date hereof shall be endorsed by the Company with a legend reading substantially as follows: “THE SHARES EVIDENCED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO A AMENDED AND RESTATED VOTING AGREEMENT, AS MAY BE AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, (A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST FROM THE COMPANY), AND BY ACCEPTING ANY INTEREST IN SUCH SHARES THE PERSON ACCEPTING SUCH INTEREST SHALL BE DEEMED TO AGREE TO AND SHALL BECOME BOUND BY ALL THE PROVISIONS OF THAT VOTING AGREEMENT, INCLUDING CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND OWNERSHIP SET FORTH THEREIN.” The Company, by its execution of this Agreement, agrees that it will cause the certificates evidencing the Shares issued after the date hereof to bear the legend required by this Section 7.12, and it shall supply, free of charge, a copy of this Agreement to any holder of a certificate evidencing Shares upon written request from such holder to the Company at its principal office. The parties to this Agreement do hereby agree that the failure to cause the certificates evidencing the Shares to bear the legend required by this Section 7.12 and/or the failure of the Company to supply, free of charge, a copy of this Agreement as provided hereunder shall not affect the validity or enforcement of this Agreement.
Delivery of Share Certificates Within a reasonable time after the exercise of the Option the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Optionee, his or her legal representative or his or her beneficiary, a certificate for the Shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Option.
Register of Shares and Share Certificates A register shall be kept at the principal office of the Trust or an office of one or more transfer agents which shall contain the names and addresses of the Shareholders of each Series and Class, the number of Shares of that Series and Class thereof held by them respectively and a record of all transfers thereof. As to Shares for which no certificate has been issued, such register shall be conclusive as to who are the holders of the Shares and who shall be entitled to receive dividends or other distributions or otherwise to exercise or enjoy the rights of Shareholders. No Shareholder shall be entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution, nor to have notice given to him as herein or in the By-laws provided, until he has given his address to the transfer agent or such other officer or agent of the Trust as shall keep the said register for entry thereon. The Trustees shall have no obligation to, but in their discretion may, authorize the issuance of share certificates and promulgate appropriate rules and regulations as to their use. If one or more share certificates are issued, whether in the name of a Shareholder or a nominee, such certificate or certificates shall constitute evidence of ownership of the Shares evidenced thereby for all purposes, including transfer, assignment or sale of such Shares, subject to such limitations as the Trustees may, in their discretion, prescribe.
Issuance of Share Certificates Subject to the last sentence of this Section 8, upon receipt by the Company prior to expiration of the Option of a duly completed Notice of Exercise of Option accompanied by payment for the Shares being purchased pursuant to such Notice (and, with respect to any Option exercised pursuant to Section 9 hereof by someone other than the Optionee, accompanied in addition by proof satisfactory to the Committee of the right of such person to exercise the Option), the Company shall deliver to the Optionee, within thirty (30) days of such receipt, a certificate for the number of Shares so purchased. The Optionee shall not have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares which are subject to the Option unless and until a certificate representing such Shares is issued to the Optionee. The Company shall not be required to issue any certificates for Shares upon the exercise of the Option prior to (i) obtaining any Consents which the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable, or (ii) the determination by the Committee, in its sole discretion, that no Consents need be obtained.
Delivery and Payment of Additional Shares Payment for the Additional Shares shall be made on the Option Closing Date by wire transfer in Federal (same day) funds, upon delivery to the Underwriters of certificates (in form and substance satisfactory to the Underwriters) representing the Additional Shares (or through the facilities of DTC) for the account of the Underwriters. The Additional Shares shall be registered in such name or names and in such authorized denominations as the Underwriters may request in writing at least two (2) full Business Days prior to the Option Closing Date. The Company shall not be obligated to sell or deliver the Additional Shares except upon tender of payment by the Underwriters for applicable Additional Shares. The Option Closing Date may be simultaneous with, but not earlier than, the Closing Date; and in the event that such time and date are simultaneous with the Closing Date, the term “Closing Date” shall refer to the time and date of delivery of the Firm Shares and Additional Shares.
Distributions to Shareholders (a) The Trustees shall from time to time distribute ratably among the Shareholders of any class of Shares, or any series of any such class, in accordance with the number of outstanding full and fractional Shares of such class or any series of such class, such proportion of the net profits, surplus (including paid-in surplus), capital, or assets held by the Trustees as they may deem proper or as may otherwise be determined in accordance with this Declaration. Any such distribution may be made in cash or property (including without limitation any type of obligations of the Trust or any assets thereof) or Shares of any class or series or any combination thereof, and the Trustees may distribute ratably among the Shareholders of any class of shares or series of any such class, in accordance with the number of outstanding full and fractional Shares of such class or any series of such class, additional Shares of any class or series in such manner, at such times, and on such terms as the Trustees may deem proper or as may otherwise be determined in accordance with this Declaration.
(b) Distributions pursuant to this Section 9.2 may be among the Shareholders of record of the applicable class or series of Shares at the time of declaring a distribution or among the Shareholders of record at such later date as the Trustees shall determine and specify.
(c) The Trustees may always retain from the net profits such amount as they may deem necessary to pay the debts or expenses of the Trust or to meet obligations of the Trust, or as they otherwise may deem desirable to use in the conduct of its affairs or to retain for future requirements or extensions of the business.
(d) Inasmuch as the computation of net income and gains for Federal income tax purposes may vary from the computation thereof on the books, the above provisions shall be interpreted to give the Trustees the power in their discretion to distribute for any fiscal year as ordinary dividends and as capital gains distributions, respectively, additional amounts sufficient to enable the Trust to avoid or reduce liability for taxes.
