Effect of the Merger on Capital Stock At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, or any holder of any securities of Parent, Merger Sub or the Company:
Effect of Consent (a) After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it will bind every Holder unless it is of the type requiring the consent of each Holder affected. If the amendment, supplement or waiver is of the type requiring the consent of each Holder affected, the amendment, supplement or waiver will bind each Holder that has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Note that evidences the same debt as the Note of the consenting Holder.
(b) If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder to deliver it to the Trustee so that the Trustee may place an appropriate notation of the changed terms on the Note and return it to the Holder, or exchange it for a new Note that reflects the changed terms. The Trustee may also place an appropriate notation on any Note thereafter authenticated. However, the effectiveness of the amendment, supplement or waiver is not affected by any failure to annotate or exchange Notes in this fashion.
Effect of a Change in Control In the event of a Change in Control, Sections 6 through 13 of this Agreement shall become applicable to Executive. These Sections shall continue to remain applicable until the third anniversary of the date upon which the Change in Control occurs. On such third anniversary date, and provided that the employment of Executive has not been terminated on account of a Qualifying Termination (as defined in Section 5 below), this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.
Revocation and Effect of Consent Until an amendment or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the Note of the consenting Holder, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its Note or portion of its Note. Such revocation shall be effective only if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver shall become effective on receipt by the Trustee of written consents from the Holders of the requisite percentage in principal amount of the outstanding Notes. The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver. If a record date is fixed, then, notwithstanding the last two sentences of the immediately preceding paragraph, those persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies) and only those persons shall be entitled to consent to such amendment, supplement or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record date.
Revocation and Effect of Consents, Waivers and Actions Until an amendment, waiver or other action by Holders becomes effective, a consent thereto by a Holder of a Security hereunder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Security or portion of the Security that evidences the same obligation as the consenting Holder's Security, even if notation of the consent, waiver or action is not made on the Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent, waiver or action as to such Holder's Security or portion of the Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment, waiver or action becomes effective. After an amendment, waiver or action becomes effective, it shall bind every Securityholder.

For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Payments Administrator shall not be responsible for processing any payments to be made at Closing, including without limitation the Closing Amount, but shall only be responsible for processing the post-closing payments expressly ascribed to it hereunder (which in no event shall include any amounts subject to wage or payroll tax withholding).
(b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the holder of any shares of Company Stock or Merger Sub Common Stock, each share of Company Stock (excluding any Restricted Shares to be exchanged pursuant to Section 1.9(c)) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically cease to be outstanding and shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist and will be converted automatically following the surrender of the certificate representing such shares of Company Stock in the manner provided in Section 1.14, into the right to receive, that portion, if any, of the Merger Consideration, without interest, as set forth below:
(i) each share of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding any shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be canceled pursuant to Section 1.6(b)(iii) and any Dissenting Shares as defined in and to the extent provided in Section 1.15) shall be canceled and converted automatically into the right to receive (A) an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Series A Per Share Closing Amount, plus (B) the contingent right to receive, in accordance with Section 1.7 hereof, an amount equal to the Pro Rata Initial Order Cash Consideration (if any), plus (C) the contingent right to receive, in accordance with Section 1.8 hereof, an amount equal to the Pro Rata Performance Amount (if any), plus (D) an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (x) the Pro Rata Share multiplied by (y) any proceeds or distributions of the Escrow Amount (if, when and to the extent distributed to the Participating Holders pursuant to the terms herein), plus (E) an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (x) the Pro Rata Share multiplied by (y) the Post-Closing Adjustment (if, when and to the extent distributed to the Participating Holders pursuant to the terms herein); provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, upon allocation of Merger Consideration (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Pro Rata Share of the Escrow Amount and Post-Closing Adjustment, as applicable, initially allocable to each share of Series A Preferred Stock, whether or not actually distributed to the Participating Holders) in the aggregate equal to $21.00 per share of Series A Preferred Stock, no holder of shares of Series A Preferred Stock may receive any further distributions of Merger Consideration in respect of such shares; provided, further, that any funds that remain undistributed following application of the immediately preceding proviso (the “Series A Overflow Funds” and together with the Warrant Overflow Funds, the “Overflow Funds”) shall be distributed in accordance with Section 1.6(b)(ii) below.
(ii) each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding any shares of Company Common Stock to be canceled pursuant to Section 1.6(b)(iii) and any Dissenting Shares as defined in and to the extent provided in Section 1.16) shall be canceled and converted automatically into the right to receive: (A) an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Common Per Share Closing Amount, plus (B) the contingent right to receive, in accordance with Section 1.7 hereof, an amount equal to the Pro Rata Initial Order Cash Consideration (if any), plus (C) the contingent right to receive, in accordance with Section 1.8 hereof, an amount equal to the Pro Rata Performance Amount (if any), plus (D) an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (x) the Pro Rata Share multiplied by (y) any proceeds or distributions of the Escrow Amount (if, when and to the extent distributed to the Stockholders pursuant to the terms herein), plus (E) an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (x) the Pro Rata Share multiplied by (y) the Post-Closing Adjustment (if, when and to the extent distributed to the Participating Holders pursuant to the terms herein), plus (F) an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (x) the Capped Pro Rata Share multiplied by (y) the amount of the Overflow Funds;
(iii) each share of Company Stock, if any, held by the Company as treasury stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof, and no payment or distribution shall be made with respect thereto;
(iv) each share of Merger Sub Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically converted into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Surviving Corporation, and all of such shares, as converted, shall thereafter constitute all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Surviving Corporation; and
(v) each share certificate of Merger Sub evidencing ownership of any shares of Merger Sub Common Stock shall continue to evidence ownership of such shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation; and
(vi) each share of Company Stock converted pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 1.6(b) shall automatically cease to be outstanding and shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist and each holder of a certificate representing any such share of Company Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive such holder’s respective portion of the Merger Consideration and all payments pursuant to this Section 1.6 shall be made in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation.
Revocation and Effect of Consents Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder.
Presumptions and Effect of Certain Proceedings (a) In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person, persons or entity making such determination shall presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if Indemnitee has submitted a request for indemnification in accordance with Section 11(b) of this Agreement, and the Company shall have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption in connection with the making by any person, persons or entity of any determination contrary to that presumption. Neither the failure of the Company (including by the Disinterested Directors or Independent Counsel) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any action pursuant to this Agreement that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Company (including by the Disinterested Directors or Independent Counsel) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct.
(b) If the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 12 of this Agreement to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification shall not have made a determination within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Company of the request therefor, the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such indemnification, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a final judicial determination that any or all such indemnification is expressly prohibited under applicable law; provided, however, that such 30-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional fifteen (15) days, if the person, persons or entity making the determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith requires such additional time for the obtaining or evaluating of documentation and/or information relating thereto.
(c) The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.
(d) For purposes of any determination of good faith, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if Indemnitee’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Enterprise, including financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the directors, manager, or officers of the Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise, its Board, any committee of the Board or any director, trustee, general partner, manager or managing member, or on information or records given or reports made to the Enterprise, its Board, any committee of the Board or any director, trustee, general partner, manager or managing member, by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected by the Enterprise, its Board, any committee of the Board or any director, trustee, general partner, manager or managing member. The provisions of this Section 13(d) shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the other circumstances in which Indemnitee may be deemed or found to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Agreement.
(e) The knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any other director, officer, trustee, partner, manager, managing member, fiduciary, agent or employee of the Enterprise shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under this Agreement.
