The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and, if the Registration Statement is then effective under the Securities Act, shall be registered for public sale in accordance with such Registration Statement.

To the extent that the Trustees authorize and issue preferred shares of any class or series, they are hereby authorized and empowered to amend or supplement this Declaration as they deem necessary or appropriate, including to comply with the requirements of the 1940 Act or requirements imposed by the rating agencies or other Persons, all without the approval of Shareholders. Any such supplement or amendment shall be filed as is necessary. The Trustees are also authorized to take such actions and retain such persons as they see fit to offer and sell such securities.

Capitalization and Other Share Capital Matters The authorized, issued, and outstanding shares of the Company is as set forth in each of the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (other than for subsequent issuances, if any, pursuant to employee benefit plans described in each of the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus or upon exercise of outstanding options or warrants described in the Disclosure Package and Prospectus, as the case may be). The shares of Common Stock conform, and, when issued and delivered as provided in this Agreement, the Offered Securities will conform, in all material respects to the description thereof contained in each of the Disclosure Package and Prospectus. All the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and non-assessable and have been issued in compliance with applicable laws. None of the outstanding shares of Common Stock were issued in violation of any preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or other similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities of the Company. There are no authorized or outstanding options, warrants, preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or other rights to purchase, or equity or debt securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for, any shares of the Company other than those described in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. The description of the Company’s stock option and other stock plans or arrangements, and the options or other rights granted thereunder, set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus accurately and fairly presents the information required to be shown with respect to such plans, arrangements, options, and rights. No further approval from Nasdaq or authorization of any shareholder, the Board of Directors or others is required for the issuance and sale of the Offered Securities. Except as set forth in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, there are no shareholders agreements, voting agreements or other similar agreements with respect to the Company’s shares of Common Stock to which the Company is a party or, to the knowledge of the Company, between or among any of the Company’s shareholders.
Dividend, Voting and Other Rights Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Grantee will have all of the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Shares, including the right to vote the Shares and receive any dividends that may be paid thereon; provided, however, that any additional Shares or other securities that the Grantee may become entitled to receive pursuant to a stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, separation or reorganization or any other change in the capital structure of the Company will be subject to the same restrictions as the Shares.
Conversion of Shares (a) At the Effective Time, each share of Company Common Stock (individually a “Share” and collectively the “Shares”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Shares held in the Company’s treasury or by any of the Company’s subsidiaries) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of AREP Oil & Gas, IPO Co., the Company or the holder thereof, be converted into the right to receive that fraction of a fully-paid and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of IPO Co. (“IPO Co. Common Stock”) equal to the Exchange Ratio (as defined below) (the “Merger Consideration”).
(b) The “Exchange Ratio” shall be determined by multiplying 0.00000008936 [i.e., 1 / 11,190,650 (the number of outstanding Shares)] by the Share Amount (as hereafter defined). The “Share Amount” shall mean that number of shares of IPO Co. Common Stock which results in the holders of the Shares receiving, in the aggregate, a 7.990% (the “Percentage”) economic interest in the entire equity of the Enterprise (as hereafter defined) immediately prior to consummation of the IPO Transaction; provided, however, that the parties acknowledge and agree that: (i) the Percentage is based upon the assumption that the Enterprise will be subject to $500 million of net indebtedness (i.e., total indebtedness minus cash) immediately prior to or simultaneously with consummation of the IPO Transaction (after all incurrences and repayments of debt contemplated in Exhibit B hereto and excluding intercompany notes of the members of the Enterprise and their subsidiaries); (ii) to the extent that the Enterprise is subject to less than $500 million of net indebtedness at such time (after all incurrences and repayments of debt contemplated in Exhibit B hereto and excluding intercompany notes of the members of the Enterprise and their subsidiaries), the Percentage will be reduced by subtracting the Adjustment Amount (as hereafter defined) from the Percentage; and (iii) to the extent that the Enterprise is subject to in excess of $500 million of net indebtedness at such time (after all incurrences and repayments of debt contemplated in Exhibit B hereto and excluding intercompany notes of the members of the Enterprise and their subsidiaries), the Percentage will be increased by adding the Adjustment Amount to the Percentage. The “Adjustment Amount” shall mean the product of (x) 0.6322% and (y) that fraction obtained by dividing the positive difference between $500 million and the actual net indebtedness of the Enterprise immediately prior to or simultaneously with consummation of the IPO Transaction (after all incurrences and repayments of debt contemplated in Exhibit B hereto and excluding intercompany notes of the members of the Enterprise and their subsidiaries) by $100 million. Set forth on Schedule 1.7 hereto is an example of how the Percentage shall be calculated. At Closing, the remaining economic interest in the Enterprise will be held, directly or indirectly, by AREH. The term “Enterprise” shall mean a combination or consolidation of entities which includes 100% of the equity interests in each of AREP Oil & Gas, National Onshore, National Offshore and the Company.
Registration of Other Securities Whenever the Company shall effect a registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 in connection with an underwritten offering by one or more holders of Registrable Securities, no securities other than Registrable Securities shall be included among the securities covered by such registration unless (i) the managing underwriter of such offering shall have advised each holder of Registrable Securities to be covered by such registration in writing that the inclusion of such other securities would not adversely affect such offering or (ii) the holders of all Registrable Securities to be covered by such registration shall have consented in writing to the inclusion of such other securities.
Availability of Shares of Preferred Stock (a) The Company covenants and agrees that it will cause to be reserved and kept available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Preferred Stock or any shares of Preferred Stock held in its treasury, the number of shares of Preferred Stock that will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Rights.
(b) So long as the shares of Preferred Stock issuable upon the exercise of Rights may be listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, or quoted on NASDAQ, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause, from and after such time as the Rights become exercisable, all shares reserved for such issuance to be listed or admitted to trading on such exchange, or quoted on NASDAQ, upon official notice of issuance upon such exercise.
(c) From and after such time as the Rights become exercisable, the Company shall use its best efforts, if then necessary to permit the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock upon the exercise of Rights, to register and qualify such shares of Preferred Stock under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities or "Blue Sky" laws (to the extent exemptions therefrom are not available), cause such registration statement and qualifications to become effective as soon as possible after such filing and keep such registration and qualifications effective (with a prospectus at all times meeting the requirements of the Securities Act) until the earlier of the date as of which the Rights are no longer exercisable for such securities and the Expiration Date. The Company may temporarily suspend, for a period of time not to exceed 90 days, the exercisability of the Rights in order to prepare and file a registration statement under the Securities Act and permit it to become effective. Upon any such suspension, the Company shall issue a public announcement stating that the exercisability of the Rights has been temporarily suspended, as well as a public announcement at such time as the suspension is no longer in effect. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Rights shall not be exercisable in any jurisdiction unless the requisite qualification in such jurisdiction shall have been obtained and until a registration statement under the Securities Act shall have been declared effective, unless an exemption therefrom is available.
(d) The Company covenants and agrees that it will take all such action as may be necessary to ensure that all shares of Preferred Stock delivered upon exercise of Rights shall, at the time of delivery of the certificates therefor (subject to payment of the Purchase Price), be duly and validly authorized and issued and fully paid and nonassessable shares.
(e) The Company further covenants and agrees that it will pay when due and payable any and all federal and state transfer taxes and charges which may be payable in respect of the issuance or delivery of the Right Certificates or of any shares of Preferred Stock upon the exercise of Rights. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any transfer tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer or delivery of Right Certificates to a Person other than, or the issuance or delivery of certificates or depositary receipts for the Preferred Stock in a name other than that of, the registered holder of the Right Certificate evidencing Rights surrendered for exercise or to issue or deliver any certificates or depositary receipts for Preferred Stock upon the exercise of any Rights until any such tax shall have been paid (any such tax being payable by that holder of such Right Certificate at the time of surrender) or until it has been established to the Company's reasonable satisfaction that no such tax is due.
