Prior Approvals This Contract shall not be binding unless and until all requisite prior approvals have been obtained in accordance with current State law, bulletins, and interpretations.
Shareholder Approvals Each of South State and CenterState shall call, give notice of, establish a record date for, convene and hold a meeting of its shareholders (the “South State Meeting” and the “CenterState Meeting,” respectively) to be held as soon as reasonably practicable after the S-4 is declared effective, for the purpose of obtaining (a) in the case of CenterState, the Requisite CenterState Vote, and in the case of South State, the Requisite South State Vote, and (b) if so desired and mutually agreed, a vote upon other matters of the type customarily brought before a meeting of shareholders in connection with the approval of a merger agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, and each of CenterState and South State shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such meetings to occur as soon as reasonably practicable and on the same date. Each of South State and CenterState and their respective Boards of Directors shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain from the shareholders of South State and CenterState, as applicable, the Requisite South State Vote and the Requisite CenterState Vote, as applicable, including by communicating to the respective shareholders of South State and CenterState its recommendation (and including such recommendation in the Joint Proxy Statement) that, in the case of South State, the shareholders of South State adopt and approve this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and approve the South State Articles Amendment (the “South State Board Recommendation”), and, in the case of CenterState, the shareholders of CenterState adopt and approve this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (the “CenterState Board Recommendation”). Each of South State and CenterState and their respective Boards of Directors shall not (i) withhold, withdraw, modify or qualify in a manner adverse to the other party the South State Board Recommendation, in the case of South State, or the CenterState Board Recommendation, in the case of CenterState, (ii) fail to make the South State Board Recommendation, in the case of South State, or the CenterState Board Recommendation, in the case of CenterState, in the Joint Proxy Statement, (iii) adopt, approve, recommend or endorse an Acquisition Proposal or publicly announce an intention to adopt, approve, recommend or endorse an Acquisition Proposal, (iv) fail to publicly and without qualification (A) recommend against any Acquisition Proposal or (B) reaffirm the South State Board Recommendation, in the case of South State, or the CenterState Board Recommendation, in the case of CenterState, in each case within ten (10) business days (or such fewer number of days as remains prior to the South State Meeting or the CenterState Meeting, as applicable) after an Acquisition Proposal is made public or any request by the other party to do so, or (v) publicly propose to do any of the foregoing (any of the foregoing a “Recommendation Change”). However, subject to Section 8.1 and Section 8.2, if the Board of Directors of South State or CenterState, after receiving the advice of its outside counsel and, with respect to financial matters, its financial advisors, determines in good faith that it would more likely than not result in a violation of its fiduciary duties under applicable law to make or continue to make the South State Board Recommendation or the CenterState Board Recommendation, as applicable, such Board of Directors may, in the case of South State, prior to the receipt of the Requisite South State Vote, and in the case of CenterState, prior to the receipt of the Requisite CenterState Vote, submit this Agreement to its shareholders without recommendation (although the resolutions approving this Agreement as of the date hereof may not be rescinded or amended), in which event such Board of Directors may communicate the basis for its lack of a recommendation to its shareholders in the Joint Proxy Statement or an appropriate amendment or supplement thereto to the extent required by law; provided that such Board of Directors may not take any actions under this sentence unless it (A) gives the other party at least three (3) business days’ prior written notice of its intention to take such action and a reasonable description of the event or circumstances giving rise to its determination to take such action (including, in the event such action is taken in response to an Acquisition Proposal, the latest material terms and conditions and the identity of the third party in any such Acquisition Proposal, or any amendment or modification thereof, or describe in reasonable detail such other event or circumstances) and (B) at the end of such notice period, takes into account any amendment or modification to this Agreement proposed by the other party and, after receiving the advice of its outside counsel and, with respect to financial matters, its financial advisors, determines in good faith that it would nevertheless more likely than not result in a violation of its fiduciary duties under applicable law to make or continue to make the South State Board Recommendation or CenterState Board Recommendation, as the case may be. Any material amendment to any Acquisition Proposal will be deemed to be a new Acquisition Proposal for purposes of this Section 6.3 and will require a new notice period as referred to in this Section 6.3. Neither South State nor CenterState shall adjourn or postpone the South State Meeting or the CenterState Meeting, as the case may be, except that South State or CenterState (1) shall be permitted to adjourn or postpone the South State Meeting or the CenterState Meeting, as the case may be, to allow reasonable additional time for the filing and mailing of any supplemental or amended disclosure which the South State Board or the CenterState Board, as the case may be, has determined in good faith after consultation with outside counsel is necessary under applicable law and for such supplemental or amended disclosure to be disseminated and reviewed by such party’s shareholders prior to the South State Meeting or the CenterState Meeting, as the case may be and (2) shall adjourn or postpone the South State Meeting or the CenterState Meeting, as the case may be, if, as of the time for which such meeting is originally scheduled there are insufficient shares of South State Common Stock or CenterState Common Stock, as the case may be, represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of such meeting, or if on the date of such meeting CenterState or South State, as applicable, has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares necessary to obtain the Requisite CenterState Vote or the Requisite South State Vote; provided that, without the prior written consent of the other party, neither South State nor CenterState shall adjourn or postpone the South State Meeting or the CenterState Meeting, as the case may be, under this clause (2) for more than five (5) business days in the case of any individual adjournment or postponement or more than twenty (20) business days in the aggregate. If the CenterState Meeting or the South State Meeting is adjourned or postponed, South State and CenterState will use their reasonable best efforts to cause the South State Meeting or the CenterState Meeting, as the case may be, to also be adjourned or postponed such that the meetings occur on the same date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, unless this Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms, (x) the South State Meeting shall be convened and this Agreement shall be submitted to the shareholders of South State at the South State Meeting and (y) the CenterState Meeting shall be convened and this Agreement shall be submitted to the shareholders of CenterState at the CenterState Meeting, and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to relieve either South State or CenterState of such obligation.
