Section 368 Reorganization For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Share Exchange is intended to constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Code. The parties to this Agreement hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) of the United States Treasury Regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that no party is making any representation or warranty as to the qualification of the Share Exchange as a reorganization under Section 368 of the Code or as to the effect, if any, that any transaction consummated prior to the Closing Date has or may have on any such reorganization status. The parties acknowledge and agree that each (i) has had the opportunity to obtain independent legal and tax advice with respect to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) is responsible for paying its own Taxes, including without limitation, any adverse Tax consequences that may result if the transaction contemplated by this Agreement is not determined to qualify as a reorganization under Section 368 of the Code.
Tax Treatment of Merger The Parties intend that, for United States federal income tax purposes (and, where applicable, state and local income tax purposes) the Merger shall qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and that this Agreement shall be, and is hereby adopted as, a plan of reorganization for purposes of Section 354 and 361 of the Code. Unless otherwise required by a final determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or a similar determination under applicable state of local Law), all Parties shall file all United States federal, state and local Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the intended tax treatment of the Merger described in this Section 2.5, and no Party shall take a position inconsistent with such treatment.

Upon approval by the OTS, and endorsement of such certificates, the Merger and other transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall become effective. The Effective Date for all purposes hereunder shall be the date of such endorsement.
Merger of Merger Sub into the Company Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time (as defined in Section 1.3), Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company, and the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease. The Company will continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the "Surviving Corporation").
Pre-Closing Reorganization Buyer agrees that any or all of the Sellers may, at any time before Closing, implement a reorganization (“Pre-Closing Reorganization”) in the manner described at SCHEDULE T, provided that any new shareholders arising as a result of such reorganization will be bound by the terms of this Agreement, deemed to be “Sellers” for the purpose of this Agreement, obliged to sell their shares in the Relevant Holdco to the Buyer on the terms and conditions contained herein, and required to provide all of the representations, warranties and covenants that are provided by the Sellers herein, shall assume all liabilities and duties of any shareholder or Seller for whom such shareholder is the successor in interest, and provided further that the Pre-Closing Reorganization: (a) will not have the effect of imposing any incremental obligations for Taxes for the Buyer, the Holdcos, the Corporation or the Subsidiaries; and (b) will not have an adverse effect on Holdcos, the Corporation or the Subsidiaries or their respective businesses or Assets or impose any cost, liability or expense on any of them that is not reimbursed by Sellers. No Pre-Closing Reorganization will be considered in determining whether a representation, warranty or covenant of the Sellers hereunder has been breached, other than pursuant to the terms of this Section 5.9 but excluding the consideration of the Competition Act Approval. The Sellers will provide written notice to the Buyer upon completion of any Pre-Closing Reorganization together with an updated SCHEDULE A reflecting any changes to Sellers, Shares and Purchase Price allocation resulting from the Pre-Closing Reorganization (which updated SCHEDULE A will be deemed to be incorporated into and form part of this Agreement), and access to all relevant documentation relating to such Pre-Closing Reorganization.
Reorganization Transactions The applicable Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence hereafter of certain transactions by the issuer of the Warrant Shares, including dividends of stock or other securities or property, stock splits, reverse stock splits, subdivisions, combinations, recapitalizations, reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations and any liquidation or dissolution of such issuer (each a "Reorganization"). In the event that the outstanding Common Stock issued by the Corporation is at any time increased or decreased solely by reason of a Reorganization, appropriate adjustments in the number and kind of such securities then subject to this Warrant shall be made effective as of the date of such occurrence so that the interest of the Holder upon exercise will be the same as it would have been had such Holder owned the underlying securities immediately prior to the occurrence of such event. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any Reorganization shall occur.
