Shareholders’ Fees The Transfer Agent shall be entitled to charge the Fund’s shareholders directly, and may redeem shares of the Fund held in a shareholder’s Account to satisfy such charges, in accordance with the following provisions:
Dissenting Shareholders Any holder of shares of Target Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time with respect to which dissenters’ rights, if any, are available by reason of the Merger pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the California Corporations Code (the “CCC”) who has not voted in favor of the Merger or consented thereto in writing and who complies with Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the CCC (the “Target Dissenting Shares”) shall not be entitled to receive any Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to this ARTICLE II, unless such holder fails to perfect, effectively withdraws or loses its dissenters’ rights under the DGCL or the CCC. Such holder shall be entitled to receive only such rights as are granted under Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the CCC, as applicable. If any such holder fails to perfect, effectively withdraws or loses such dissenters’ rights under the DGCL or the CCC, as applicable, such Target Dissenting Shares shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive that number of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock to which such shares of Target securities are entitled pursuant to this ARTICLE II, in each case without interest. Prior to the Effective Time, the Target shall give Orion prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the CCC, as applicable, received by the Target, withdrawals of any such written demands and any other documents or instruments received by the Target in connection therewith. Orion shall have the right to participate in and direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any such demands. Prior to the Effective Time, the Target shall not, except with the prior written consent of Orion, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands, or agree to do any of the foregoing. Any payments made with respect to Target Dissenting Shares shall be made solely by the Surviving Corporation, and no funds or other property shall be provided by Target, Orion or Merger Sub for such payment.
Dissenting Stockholders Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by a Stockholder who did not vote in favor of the Merger (or consent thereto in writing) and who is entitled to demand and properly demands appraisal of such shares (the “Dissenting Shares”) pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL (the “Dissenting Stockholders”) shall not be converted into or be exchangeable for the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration, but instead such holder shall be entitled to receive such consideration as may be determined to be due to such Dissenting Stockholder pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL, unless and until such holder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost its right to appraisal under the DGCL. If any Dissenting Stockholder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such right, such holder’s shares of Common Stock shall thereupon be treated as if they had been converted into and become exchangeable for the right to receive, as of the Effective Time, the Per Share Merger Consideration for each such share, in accordance with Section 3.1, without interest. The Company shall give Parent prompt notice and a copy of any written demands for appraisal, attempted withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to applicable Law that are received by the Company relating to Stockholders’ rights of appraisal, and, at Parent’s expense, Parent shall have the opportunity and right to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal by Stockholders under the DGCL, so long as Parent does not create any pre-Closing obligations of the Company. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal, offer to settle or settle any such demands or approve any withdrawal of any such demands.
Shareholder Liability Notice is hereby given that this Agreement is entered into on the Fund’s behalf by an officer of the Fund in his capacity as an officer and not individually and that the obligations of or arising out of this Agreement are not binding upon any of the Fund’s Trustees, officers, employees, agents or shareholders individually, but are binding only upon the assets and property of the Series.
