As soon as reasonably practicable following receipt of the Company Shareholder Approval and in any case within one Business Day thereafter, the Board shall increase the size of the Board by two directors and cause such persons to be appointed to the Board as directors; provided, that if the Company Shareholder Approval is not obtained by the date that is 30 days prior to the Designation Date for the Next Annual Meeting, (i) the Company shall take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to cause the election of two Minority Shareholder Observers to the Board as directors at the Next Annual Meeting or (ii) if the Minority Shareholders no longer beneficially own, in the aggregate, 66% or more of the Minority Shares, the Company shall take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to cause the election of one Minority Shareholder Observer, designated by the Minority Shareholder Representative on behalf of the Minority Shareholders, to be elected to the Board as director at the Next Annual Meeting; in each case, the Company’s obligations to take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to cause the election of such Minority Shareholder Observers to the Board as directors shall include the obligation of the Company to take all actions to cause such Minority Shareholder Observers to be nominated by the Board, including the Governance Committee, for election at the Next Annual Meeting.

In each case, the Company shall take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to cause the appointment of such Minority Shareholder Designee(s) (x) to the Board (including taking all actions to cause such Minority Shareholder Designee(s) to be nominated by the Board, including the Governance Committee, for election at each annual meeting of the shareholders of Company (or at any special shareholder meeting of the Company at which the Board is to be elected)) and (y) to the applicable committee of the Board (including taking all actions to cause such Minority Shareholder Designee(s) to be elected by the Board to serve on such committee of the Board). (b) Each Minority Shareholder Designee shall comply in all respects with the Company’s corporate governance guidelines as in effect from time to time, in each case as determined by the Board’s Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee (the “Governance Committee”); provided, that the Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that the initial Minority Shareholder Designees comply with such corporate governance guidelines.
