Reclassification, Consolidation or Merger At any time while this Option remains outstanding and unexpired, in case of (i) any reclassification or change of outstanding securities issuable upon exercise of this Option (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value per share, or from no par value per share to par value or as a result of a subdivision or combination of outstanding securities issuable upon the exercise of this Option), (ii) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a merger with another corporation in which the Company is a continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or change, other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value per share, or from no par value per share to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination of outstanding securities issuable upon the exercise of this Option), or (iii) any sale or transfer to another corporation of the property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, the Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall without payment of any additional consideration therefor, execute a new Option providing that the holder of this Option shall have the right to exercise such new Option (upon terms not less favorable to the holder than those then applicable to this Option) and to receive upon such exercise, in lieu of each share of Common Stock theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Option, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money or property receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer. Such new Option shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 1 of Schedule A. The provisions of this subsection 1(a) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, consolidations, mergers, sales and transfers.
Consolidation or Merger The Issuer may consolidate with, or sell, lease or convey all or substantially all of its assets as an entirety to, or merge with or into any other corporation provided that in any such case, (i) either the Issuer shall be the continuing corporation, or the successor corporation shall be a corporation organised and existing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Issuer is incorporated or any province, territory, state or other political subdivision thereof and such successor corporation shall expressly assume the due and punctual payment of the principal of and interest (including Additional Amounts as provided in Condition 7) on all the Notes and Coupons, according to their tenor, and the due and punctual performance and observance of all of the covenants and conditions of the Notes to be performed by the Issuer by an amendment to the Agency Agreement or, as the case may be, the TCCI Note Agency Agreement or the TMCC Note Agency Agreement, executed by such successor corporation, the Issuer and the Agent or the TCCI Registrar and the TCCI Transfer Agent or the TMCC Registrar and the TMCC Transfer Agent, as the case may be, and (ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Event of Default under Condition 9, and no event which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would become such an Event of Default shall have happened and be continuing. In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance and upon any such assumption by the successor corporation, such successor corporation shall succeed to and be substituted for the Issuer, with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the Issuer, and the predecessor corporation, except in the event of a conveyance by way of lease, shall be relieved of any further obligation under the Notes and the Agency Agreement or, as the case may be, the TCCI Note Agency Agreement or the TMCC Note Agency Agreement.

(b) sales of shares of capital stock or other equity interests by Borrower or Whitesone REIT, so long as no Change of Control results therefrom;

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 Warrant 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 Directors of the Company) in order to provide for adjustments of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 11. For purposes of this Section 11, "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 11 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or disposition of assets.
Adjustments for Reorganization, Merger, Consolidation or Sales of Assets If at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date there shall be (i) a capital reorganization of the Issuer (other than by way of a stock split or combination of shares or stock dividends or distributions provided for in Section 3(a), and Section 3(b), or a reclassification, exchange or substitution of shares provided for in Section 3(c)), or (ii) a merger or consolidation of the Issuer with or into another corporation, where the holders of the Issuer’s outstanding voting securities prior to such merger or consolidation do not own over 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the merged or consolidated entity, immediately after such merger or consolidation, or (iii) the sale of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s properties or assets to any other person (an “Organic Change”), then, as a part of such Organic Change an appropriate revision to the Warrant Price shall be made if necessary and provision shall be made if necessary (by adjustments of the Warrant Price or otherwise) so that, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, in lieu of Warrant Stock, the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities or property of the Issuer or any successor corporation resulting from the Organic Change. In any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Section 3(d) with respect to the rights of the Holder after the Organic Change to the end that the provisions of this Section 3(d) (including any adjustment in the Warrant Price then in effect and the number of shares of stock or other securities deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be applied after that event in as nearly an equivalent manner as may be practicable. In any such case, the resulting or surviving corporation (if not the Issuer) shall expressly assume the obligations to deliver, upon the exercise of this Warrant, such securities or property as the Holder shall be entitled to receive pursuant to the provisions hereof, and to make provisions for the protection of the rights of the Holder as provided above.
Sale of Assets; Merger and Consolidation Subject to right of Shareholders, if any, to vote pursuant to Section 6.1, the Trustees may cause (i) the Trust or one or more of its Portfolios to the extent consistent with applicable law to sell all or substantially all of its assets to, or be merged into or consolidated with, another Portfolio, statutory trust (or series thereof) or Company (or series thereof), (ii) the Shares of the Trust or any Portfolio (or Class) to be converted into beneficial interests in another statutory trust (or series thereof) created pursuant to this Section 9.4, (iii) the Shares of any Class to be converted into another Class of the same Portfolio, or (iv) the Shares to be exchanged under or pursuant to any state or federal statute to the extent permitted by law. In all respects not governed by statute or applicable law, the Trustees shall have power to prescribe the procedure necessary or appropriate to accomplish a sale of assets, merger or consolidation including the power to create one or more separate statutory trusts to which all or any part of the assets, liabilities, profits or losses of the Trust may be transferred and to provide for the conversion of Shares of the Trust or any Portfolio (or Class) into beneficial interests in such separate statutory trust or trusts (or series or class thereof).
