Shareholders Meetings The Company, acting through the Company Special Committee, shall take all actions in accordance with applicable Law, the Company Memorandum and the rules and regulations of the New York Stock Exchange to establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold, as promptly as practicable after the Registration Statement shall have become effective, the Company Shareholders Meeting for the purpose of considering and voting upon the approval of this Agreement, the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby. Subject to Section 6.07, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Company Special Committee shall recommend approval of this Agreement, the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby by the Company Shareholders (the “Company Recommendation”) and include the Company Recommendation in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. Unless this Agreement has been duly terminated in accordance with the terms herein, the Company shall, subject to the right of the Company Special Committee to modify its recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent under circumstances as specified in Section 6.07, take all lawful action to solicit from the Company Shareholders proxies in favor of the proposal to approve this Agreement, the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated hereby and shall take all other action reasonably necessary or advisable to secure the vote or consent of the Company Shareholders that is required by the rules and regulations of the New York Stock Exchange and the CICL. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company, after consultation with Parent, may adjourn or postpone the Company Shareholders Meeting to the extent necessary to ensure that any legally required supplement or amendment to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus or the Registration Statement is provided to the Company Shareholders or, if as of the time for which the Company Shareholders Meeting is originally scheduled (as set forth in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus), there are insufficient Company Ordinary Shares represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of the Company Shareholders Meeting.
Special Meetings of Stockholders Only such business shall be conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting.

In the event the Corporation calls a special meeting of stockholders for the purpose of electing one or more individuals to the Board of Directors, any stockholder may nominate an individual or individuals (as the case may be) for election as a director as specified in the Corporation’s notice of meeting, if the stockholder’s notice, containing the information required by paragraphs (a)(3) and (4) of this Section 2.11, is delivered to the secretary at the principal executive office of the Corporation not earlier than the 120th day prior to such special meeting and not later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the later of the 90th day prior to such special meeting or the tenth day following the day on which public announcement, if any, is first made of the date of the special meeting and of the nominees proposed by the Board of Directors to be elected at such meeting.

Meetings of Stockholders (a) Promptly after the date hereof, the Company will take all action necessary in accordance with Delaware Law and its Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws to convene the Company Stockholders' Meeting to be held as promptly as practicable, for the purpose of voting upon this Agreement. The Company will consult with Parent and use its commercially reasonable efforts to hold the Company Stockholders' Meeting on the same day as the Parent Stockholders' Meeting. Promptly after the date hereof, Parent will take all action necessary in accordance with Delaware Law and its Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws to convene the Parent Stockholders' Meeting to be held as promptly as practicable for the purpose of voting upon the issuance of shares of Parent Common Stock by virtue of the Merger.

Subject to Sections 5.2(c) and 5.2(d), Parent and the Company will each use its commercially reasonable efforts to solicit from its stockholders proxies in favor of the adoption and approval of this Agreement and the approval of the Merger and will take all other action necessary or advisable to secure the vote or consent of their respective stockholders or stockholders required by the rules of Nasdaq or Delaware Law and all other applicable legal requirements to obtain such approvals.

(c) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Board of Directors of the Company from withholding, withdrawing, amending or modifying its recommendation in favor of the Merger if (i) a Company Superior Offer (as defined below) is made to the Company and is not withdrawn, (ii) neither the Company nor any of its representatives shall have violated any of the restrictions set forth in Section 5.4(a), and (iii) the Board of Directors of the Company concludes in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel, that, in light of such Company Superior Offer, the withholding, withdrawal, amendment or modification of such recommendation is required in order for the Board of Directors of the Company to comply with its fiduciary obligations to the Company's stockholders under applicable law. Nothing contained in this Section 5.2 shall limit the Company's obligation to hold and convene the Company Stockholders' Meeting (regardless of whether the recommendation of the Board of Directors of the Company shall have been withdrawn, amended or modified). For purposes of this Agreement, "COMPANY SUPERIOR OFFER" shall mean an unsolicited, bona fide written offer made by a third party to consummate any of the following transactions: (i) a merger, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization or similar transaction involving the Company, pursuant to which the stockholders of the Company immediately preceding such transaction hold less than 50% of the equity interest in the surviving or resulting entity of such transaction; (ii) a sale or other disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of its assets, or (iii) the acquisition by any person or group (including by way of a tender offer or an exchange offer or issuance by the Company), directly or indirectly, of beneficial ownership or a right to acquire beneficial ownership of shares representing in excess of 50% of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company, in each case on terms that the Board of Directors of the Company determines, in its reasonable judgment (after consultation with its financial advisor) to be more favorable to the Company stockholders from a financial point of view than the terms of the Merger; provided, however, that any such offer shall not be deemed to be a "COMPANY SUPERIOR OFFER" if any financing required to consummate the transaction contemplated by such offer is not committed and is not likely in the judgment of the Company's Board of Directors to be obtained by such third party on a timely basis.

The Company will, through its Board of Directors, recommend to its stockholders that the Company Stockholder Approval be given. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) if Merger Sub or any other Subsidiary of Parent shall acquire at least a majority of the outstanding Shares, the parties shall, at the request of Parent, take all necessary and appropriate action to cause the Merger to be approved by a written consent of stockholders pursuant to Section 228 of the DGCL, the Company Charter and the Company Bylaws (the "Written Consent") and for the Merger to become effective as soon as practicable as permitted by applicable law after purchase of such Shares in the Offer without a Stockholders Meeting in accordance with Sections 228 and 251 of the DGCL, and (2) if Merger Sub or any other subsidiary of Parent shall acquire at least 90% of the outstanding Shares, the parties shall, at the request of Parent, take all necessary and appropriate action to cause the Merger to become effective as soon as practicable after the expiration of the Offer without a Stockholders Meeting in accordance with Section 253 of the DGCL.

If at any time prior to the Stockholders Meeting there shall occur any event that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement, the Company will promptly prepare and mail to its stockholders such an amendment or supplement.
