Fundamental Change (a) In the event that the Company is a party to any transaction (including, without limitation, a merger other than a merger that does not result in a reclassification, conversion, exchange or cancellation of Company Common Stock), consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, recapitalization or reclassification of Company Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value or as a result of a subdivision or combination of Company Common Stock) or any compulsory share exchange (each of the foregoing being referred to as a "Transaction"), in each case, as a result of which shares of Company Common Stock shall be converted into the right to receive, or shall be exchanged for, (i) in the case of any Transaction other than a Transaction involving a Common Stock Fundamental Change (and subject to funds being legally available for such purpose under applicable law and the time of such conversion), securities, cash or other property, each Debenture shall thereafter be convertible into the kind and, in the case of a Transaction which does not involve a Fundamental Change, amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon the consummation of such Transaction by a holder of that number of shares of Company Common Stock into which a Debenture was convertible immediately prior to such Transaction, or (ii) in the case of a Transaction involving a Common Stock Fundamental Change, common stock, each Debenture shall thereafter be convertible (in the manner described herein) into common stock of the kind received by holders of Company Common Stock (but in each case after giving effect to any adjustment discussed in paragraphs (b) and (c) relating to a Fundamental Change if such Transaction constitutes a Fundamental Change). The holders of Debentures or Preferred Securities will have no voting rights with respect to any Transaction.
(b) If any Fundamental Change occurs, then the Conversion Price in effect will be adjusted immediately after such Fundamental Change as described in paragraph (c) below. In addition, in the event of a Common Stock Fundamental Change, each Debenture shall be convertible solely into common stock of the kind received by holders of Company Common Stock as a result of such Common Stock Fundamental Change.
(c) The Conversion Price in the case of any Transaction involving a Fundamental Change will be adjusted immediately after such Fundamental Change:
(i) in the case of a Non-Stock Fundamental Change, the Conversion Price of the Debentures will thereupon become the lower of (A) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such Non-Stock Fundamental Change, but after giving effect to any other prior adjustments effected pursuant to the preceding paragraphs, and (B) the result obtained by multiplying the greater of the Applicable Price or the then applicable Reference Market Price by a fraction of which the numerator will be $___ and the denominator will be (x) the amount of the Redemption Price for one Debenture if the Redemption Date were the date of such Non-Stock Fundamental Change (or, for the period commencing on the first date of original issuance of the Debentures and through December 1, 2000, and the twelve-month periods commencing December 1, 2001, December 1, 2002 and December 1, 2003, the product of 10_.___%, 10_.___%, 10_.___% and 10_.___%, respectively, multiplied by $__) plus (y) any then-accrued and unpaid interest on one Debenture; and
(ii) in the case of a Common Stock Fundamental Change, the Conversion Price of the Debentures in effect immediately prior to such Common Stock Fundamental Change, but after giving effect to any other prior adjustments effected pursuant to the preceding paragraphs, will thereupon be adjusted by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction of which the numerator will be the Purchaser Stock Price and the denominator will be the Applicable Price; provided, however, that in the event of a Common Stock Fundamental Change in which (A) 100% of the value of the consideration received by a holder of common stock is common stock of the successor, acquiror, or other third party (and cash, if any, is paid only with respect to any fractional interests in such common stock resulting from such Common Stock Fundamental Change) and (B) all of common stock will have been exchanged for, converted into, or acquired for common stock (and cash with respect to fractional interests) of the successor, acquiror, or other third party, the Conversion Price of the Debentures in effect immediately prior to such Common Stock Fundamental Change will thereupon be adjusted by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction of which the numerator will be one and the denominator will be the number of shares of common stock of the successor, acquiror, or other third party received by a holder of one share of common stock as a result of such Common Stock Fundamental Change.
Termination Apart from a Change of Control If the Employee's employment with the Company terminates other than as a result of an Involuntary Termination within the twelve (12) months following a Change of Control, then the Employee shall not be entitled to receive severance or other benefits hereunder, but may be eligible for those benefits (if any) as may then be established under the Company's then existing severance and benefits plans and policies at the time of such termination.
