Notice to Stockholders Whenever under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws notice is required to be given to any stockholder, such notice may be given (i) in writing and sent either by hand delivery, through the United States mail, or by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service for next day delivery, or (ii) by means of a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder, to the extent permitted by, and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 232 of the DGCL. A notice to a stockholder shall be deemed given as follows: (i) if given by hand delivery, when actually received by the stockholder, (ii) if sent through the United States mail, when deposited in the United States mail, with postage and fees thereon prepaid, addressed to the stockholder at the stockholder’s address appearing on the stock ledger of the Corporation, (iii) if sent for next day delivery by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, when deposited with such service, with fees thereon prepaid, addressed to the stockholder at the stockholder’s address appearing on the stock ledger of the Corporation, and (iv) if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder to whom the notice is given and otherwise meeting the requirements set forth above, (A) if by facsimile transmission, when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice, (B) if by electronic mail, when directed to an electronic mail address at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice, (C) if by a posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specified posting, upon the later of (1) such posting and (2) the giving of such separate notice, and (D) if by any other form of electronic transmission, when directed to the stockholder. A stockholder may revoke such stockholder’s consent to receiving notice by means of electronic communication by giving written notice of such revocation to the Corporation. Any such consent shall be deemed revoked if (1) the Corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two consecutive notices given by the Corporation in accordance with such consent and (2) such inability becomes known to the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary or to the Corporation’s transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice; provided, however, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action.
Stockholder Consent (a) So long as the Board of Directors of the Company shall not have withdrawn, modified or changed its recommendation in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.8(b) hereof, the Company, acting through its Board of Directors, shall, in accordance with Delaware law and its certificate of incorporation and by-laws, take all actions reasonably necessary to establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene, and hold a stockholders meeting for the purpose of obtaining the requisite approval and adoption of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby by the Stockholders. The Company shall notify each Stockholder, whether or not entitled to vote, of the proposed Company stockholders’ meeting. Such meeting notice shall state that the purpose, or one of the purposes, of the meeting is to consider the Merger and shall contain or be accompanied by a copy or summary of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Directors of the Company shall not be required to take all actions reasonably necessary to establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a stockholders meeting for the purpose of obtaining the requisite approval and adoption of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby by the Stockholders if the Company’s Board of Directors and the requisite Stockholders otherwise take all actions reasonably necessary to approve this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby by written consent in lieu of a meeting of the stockholders of the Company to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Notice to Holders; Waiver Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.
Notice to Holders Where this Agreement provides for notice to Holders, such notice will be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at the Holder’s address as it appears in the CVR Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, if any, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder will affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders.
Shareholder Consent The execution, delivery and performance of the Articles Amendment shall have received the Shareholder Approval.
Shares of Dissenting Stockholders Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and held by a holder of record who did not vote in favor of the adoption of this Agreement (or consent thereto in writing) and is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, Section 262 of the DGCL (“DGCL 262” and any such shares meeting the requirement of this sentence, “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, but instead at the Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive payment of such amounts as are payable in accordance with DGCL 262 (it being understood and acknowledged that at the Effective Time, such Dissenting Shares shall no longer be outstanding, shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and such holder shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto other than the right to receive the fair value of such Dissenting Shares to the extent afforded by DGCL 262); provided that if any such holder shall fail to perfect or otherwise shall waive, withdraw or lose the right to payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares under DGCL 262, then the right of such holder to be paid the fair value of such holder’s Dissenting Shares shall cease and such Dissenting Shares shall be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into, and to have become exchangeable solely for the right to receive, without interest or duplication, the Merger Consideration. The Company shall give prompt written notice to Parent of any demands received by the Company for fair value of any shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to DGCL 262 and of any withdrawals of such demands, and Parent shall have the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, or settle or compromise or offer to settle or compromise, any such demand, or agree to do any of the foregoing.

The Trustee may employ an agent to cause the Securities to be voted as provided in the preceding sentence and the cost of such agent shall be an expense reimbursable to the Trustee from the Income or Capital Accounts as provided in Section 6.04. With respect to any Trust which is a widely held fixed investment trust as defined in Treas. Reg. Section 1.671 5(b)(22), in the event that an offer by the issuer of any of the Securities or any other party shall be made to issue new securities, or to exchange securities, for Trust Securities, the Trustee shall reject such offer. However, should any issuance, exchange or substitution be effected notwithstanding such rejection or without an initial offer, any securities, cash and/or property received shall be deposited hereunder and shall be promptly sold, if securities or property, by the Trustee pursuant to the Depositor’s direction, unless the Depositor advises the Trustee to keep such securities or property. With respect to any Trust which intends to qualify as a regulated investment company, as set forth in the Prospectus for such Trust, in the event that an offer by the issuer of any of the Securities or any other party shall be made to issue new securities, or to exchange securities, for Trust Securities, the Trustee will, at the direction of the Depositor, vote for or against any offer for new or exchanged securities or property in exchange for a Trust Security. Should any issuance, exchange or substitution be effected, any securities, cash and/or property received shall be deposited hereunder and shall be promptly sold, if securities or property, by the Trustee pursuant to the Depositor’s direction, unless the Depositor advises the Trustee to keep such securities or property. The Depositor may rely on the Portfolio Supervisor in so advising the Trustee. The cash received in such exchange and cash proceeds of any such sales shall be distributed to Unit holders on the next distribution date in the manner set forth in Section 3.05 regarding distributions from the Capital Account. The Trustee shall not be liable or responsible in any way for depreciation or loss incurred by reason of any such sale. Subject to the preceding paragraph, with respect to any Trust which intends to qualify as a regulated investment company, as set forth in the Prospectus for such Trust, and holds shares of a closed-end fund, exchange traded fund or other investment fund (a “Deposited Fund”), the Trustee will provide the Depositor access to the information provided to the Trustee regarding matters on which voting or other action is solicited or required with respect to shares of a Deposited Fund. If the Depositor determines that the voting or response to such matters should not be done in accordance with the first paragraph of this Section, the Depositor will direct the Trustee in writing as to the manner in which the voting or response should be made not later than ten Business Days prior to due date for the vote or response. Unless prohibited by law or statute, the Trustee will vote or respond as directed by the Depositor. In providing such direction, the Depositor will take into account any applicable agreement and all restrictions or limitations imposed by applicable law or statute and will cause the shares to be voted, or other response made, in the best interests of the Unit holders. The Depositor is authorized to enter into an agreement with a Deposited Fund with respect to the manner in which the shares of such fund will be voted or otherwise regarding a Trust’s investment in such Deposited Fund. The Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability for any loss or liability resulting from any vote or other response made pursuant to the Depositor’s direction or otherwise pursuant to this Section in the absence of the Depositor’s direction."

Prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of stockholders to take the action were delivered to the Corporation as provided in this Section 1.10.
