Reorganization, etc To consent to or participate in any plan for the reorganization, consolidation or merger of any corporation or issuer, any security or debt instrument of which is or was held in the Trust; to consent to any contract, lease, mortgage, purchase or sale of property by such corporation or issuer, and to pay calls or subscriptions with respect to any security or debt instrument held in the Trust;
Reorganization Events (a) In the event of:
(i) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person (other than a merger or consolidation in which the Company is the continuing or surviving corporation and in which the Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger or consolidation is not exchanged for cash, securities or other property of the Company or another Person);
(ii) any direct or indirect sale, lease, assignment, transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all of the Company’s consolidated property or assets;
(iii) any reclassification of Common Stock into securities, including securities other than Common Stock (other than changes in par value or resulting from a subdivision or combination); or
(iv) any statutory exchange of securities of the Company with another Person (other than in connection with a merger or acquisition); in each case, as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, securities, cash or other property (each, a “Reorganization Event”), each Purchase Contract outstanding immediately prior to such Reorganization Event shall, without the consent of Holders of the Purchase Contracts, become a contract to purchase the kind of securities, cash and/or other property that a holder of Common Stock would have been entitled to receive in connection with such Reorganization Event (such securities, cash and other property, the “Exchange Property” with each unit of Exchange Property being the kind and amount of Exchange Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock would have received in such Reorganization Event) and, prior to or at the effective time of such Reorganization Event, the Company or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute with the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee a supplemental agreement permitted under Section 9.01(iv) amending this Agreement and the Purchase Contracts to provide for such change in the right to settle the Purchase Contracts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall a Qualified McKesson Exit and related transactions, including the Merger, constitute a Reorganization Event. For purposes of the foregoing, the type and amount of Exchange Property in the case of any Reorganization Event that causes the Common Stock to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of shareholder election) will be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration actually received by the holders of Common Stock. The Company shall notify the Purchase Contract Agent in writing of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made. The number of units of Exchange Property the Company shall deliver for each Purchase Contract settled following the effective date of such Reorganization Event shall be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company would otherwise be required to deliver as determined based on the Fixed Settlement Rates then in effect on the applicable Determination Date, or such other settlement rates as provided herein (without interest thereon and without any right to dividends or distributions thereon which have a record date prior to the close of business on the Determination Date). Each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be determined based upon the Applicable Market Value of a unit of Exchange Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock would have received in such Reorganization Event.
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.
Tax-Free Reorganization The Merger is intended to be a tax-free plan or reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Corporate Reorganization In the event that the Company changes ownership, merges with another company or in any way changes its corporate identity, this Agreement will remain in full force and effect and the Union recognition now in effect and/or the certificate issued by the Canada Labour Relations Board then in existence shall not be affected in any way except as otherwise governed or directed by the Board. The Company further agrees to enter into negotiations with the Union relative to protection of employees' seniority and other conditions of this Agreement. Failing settlement, the provisions of the Canada Labour Code will apply.
Tax-Free Reorganization Treatment The Company and Parent shall not, and shall not permit any of their respective Subsidiaries to, intentionally take or cause to be taken any action not otherwise consistent with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement which could reasonably be expected to prevent the Merger from qualifying as a "reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.
Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, etc In case at any time or from time to time, the Company shall (a) effect a reorganization, (b) consolidate with or merge into any other person or (c) transfer all or substantially all of its properties or assets to any other person under any plan or arrangement contemplating the dissolution of the Company, then, in each such case, as a condition to the consummation of such a transaction, proper and adequate provision shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder of this Warrant, on the exercise hereof as provided in Section 1, at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation or merger or the effective date of such dissolution, as the case may be, shall receive, in lieu of the Common Stock (or Other Securities) issuable on such exercise prior to such consummation or such effective date, the stock and other securities and property (including cash) to which such Holder would have been entitled upon such consummation or in connection with such dissolution, as the case may be, if such Holder had so exercised this Warrant, immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment thereafter as provided in Section 4.
Recapitalization, Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale In case the Company shall reorganize its capital, reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there is a change in or distribution with respect to the Shares of the Company), or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its property, assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever (including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation (“Other Property”), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of the Company, then the Participant shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Option, the number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company’s Shares, if it is the surviving corporation, and Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by the Participant of the number of Shares of for which this Option is exercisable immediately prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume the due and punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Option to be performed and observed by the Company and all the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modifications as may be deemed appropriate (as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of Shares for which this Option is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 7 of this Option. For purposes of this Section 7(b), “common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation” shall include stock of such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to dividends or assets over any other class of stock of such corporation and which is not subject to redemption and shall also include any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock or other securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for any such stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a specified date or the happening of a specified event and any warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of this Section 7 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets.
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.
The Reorganization 1.1 The Acquired Fund will transfer to the Surviving Fund all of its assets (consisting of, without limitation, portfolio securities and instruments, dividend and interest receivables, claims and rights of action, cash and other assets) as set forth in a statement of assets and liabilities as of the Valuation Time (as defined in paragraph 2.1 hereof), certified by the Acquired Fund’s Treasurer, Deputy Treasurer, or Assistant Treasurer and delivered by the Acquired Fund to the Surviving Fund pursuant to paragraph 5.7 hereof (the “Statement of Assets and Liabilities”) (collectively, the “Assets”), free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, except as otherwise provided herein, in exchange solely for (a) the assumption by the Surviving Fund of all of the liabilities of the Acquired Fund including the Acquired Fund’s liabilities, debts, obligations, and duties of whatever kind or nature, whether absolute, accrued, contingent, or otherwise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business (collectively, the “Liabilities”) and (b) the issuance and delivery by the Surviving Fund to the Acquired Fund, for distribution in accordance with paragraph 1.3 hereof pro rata to the Acquired Fund shareholders of record determined as of the Valuation Time (the “Acquired Fund Shareholders”), of the number of full and fractional (rounded to the third decimal place) Reorganization Shares determined as provided in paragraph 2.2 hereof. Such transactions shall take place at the closing provided for in paragraph 3.1 hereof (the “Closing”).
1.2 The Acquired Fund has provided the Surviving Fund with a list of the current securities holdings and other assets of the Acquired Fund as of the date of execution of this Agreement. The Acquired Fund reserves the right to sell any of these securities or other assets prior to the Closing.
1.3 On or as soon after the closing date established in paragraph 3.1 hereof (the “Closing Date”) as is conveniently practicable (the “Liquidation Date”), the Acquired Fund will distribute the Reorganization Shares it received pursuant to paragraph 1.1 hereof pro rata to the Acquired Fund Shareholders in actual or constructive exchange for their Acquired Fund Shares in complete liquidation of the Acquired Fund. Such distribution will be accomplished by the transfer of the Initial Class and Service Class Reorganization Shares then credited to the account of the Acquired Fund on the books of the Surviving Fund to open accounts on the share records of the Surviving Fund in the names of the Acquired Fund Shareholders and representing the respective pro rata number of full and fractional (rounded to the third decimal place) Initial Class and Service Class Reorganization Shares due such shareholders, by class (i.e., the account for each Acquired Fund Shareholder of Initial Class and Service Class Acquired Fund Shares shall be credited with the respective pro rata number of Initial Class and Service Class (as applicable) Reorganization Shares due that shareholder). The Surviving Fund will not issue share certificates representing the Reorganization Shares in connection with such distribution, except in connection with pledges and assignments and in certain other limited circumstances.
1.4 The Acquired Fund shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that Acquired Fund Shareholders holding certificates representing their ownership of Acquired Fund Shares surrender such certificates or deliver an affidavit with respect to lost certificates, in such form and accompanied by such surety bonds as the Acquired Fund may require (collectively, an “Affidavit”), to the Acquired Fund prior to the Closing Date. Any Acquired Fund Share certificate that remains outstanding on the Closing Date shall be deemed to be cancelled, shall no longer show evidence of ownership of Acquired Fund Shares and shall not evidence ownership of any Reorganization Shares. Unless and until any such certificate shall be so surrendered or an Affidavit relating thereto shall be delivered, any dividends and other distributions payable by the Surviving Fund subsequent to the Closing Date with respect to the Reorganization Shares allocable to a holder of such certificate(s) shall be paid to such holder, but such holder may not redeem or transfer such Reorganization Shares.
1.5 Any transfer taxes payable upon issuance of the Reorganization Shares in a name other than the registered holder of the Acquired Fund Shares on the books of the Acquired Fund as of that time shall, as a condition of such issuance and transfer, be paid by the person to whom such Reorganization Shares are to be issued and transferred.
1.6 The legal existence of the Acquired Fund shall be terminated promptly following the Liquidation Date.
