MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS 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 Common Stock of the Company), or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all 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 Common Stock of the Company, then Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, 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 a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant 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 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.
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).
Consolidation, Merger or Sale of Assets Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude the Company from consolidating or merging into or with, or transferring all or substantially all of its assets to, another corporation which assumes this Agreement, and all obligations of the Company hereunder, in writing. Upon such consolidation, merger, or transfer of assets and assumption, the term "the Company" as used herein, shall mean such other corporation and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect, subject to the provisions of Paragraph 6 hereof.
Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets Except as provided in Section 11.7, the Trust may merge or consolidate with any other corporation, association, trust or other organization or may sell, lease or exchange all or substantially all of the Trust Property or the property, including its good will, upon such terms and conditions and for such consideration when and as authorized by two- thirds of the Trustees and approved by a Majority Shareholder Vote and any such merger, consolidation, sale, lease or exchange shall be determined for all purposes to have been accomplished under and pursuant to the statutes of the State of Delaware.

(b) Sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets, except (i) dispositions of Inventory and Equipment to the extent expressly permitted by Section 4.3 and (ii) any other sales or dispositions expressly permitted by this Agreement.
Merger or Sale of Assets In the event that the Company shall effect (i) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other person in which those holding more than 50% of the voting power of the Company prior to the consolidation or merger no longer hold more than 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity, or (ii) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to any other person, in such a way that the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive cash, securities, evidences of indebtedness or other property with respect to or in exchange for their shares of Common Stock, then, in each such event and as a condition precedent to the consummation thereof, the Company or such other person as is formed by or survives such consolidation or merger or acquires such assets, as the case may be, shall execute and deliver to the Holder, without payment of any additional consideration therefor, a new Warrant (in form and substance approved by the Holder, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) providing that the Holder shall have the right thereafter, during the period such Warrant shall remain outstanding, to exercise such Warrant into the kind and amount of cash, securities, evidences of indebtedness and other property as the Holder would have received had the Holder been the record owner, at the time of such consolidation, merger, sale or disposition, of that number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in full immediately prior to the consummation of such consolidation, merger, sale or disposition. If the holders of the Common Stock may elect from choices the kind and/or amount of cash, securities, evidences of indebtedness and other property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale or disposition, then, for purposes of this Section 3(d), the kind and amount of cash, securities, evidences of indebtedness and other property receivable by the Holder upon exercise of such new Warrant shall be specified by the Holder, which specification shall be made by the Holder by the later of (I) ten (10) business days after the Holder is provided with a final version of all material information concerning such choice as is provided to the holders of Common Stock, or (II) the last time at which the holders of Common Stock are permitted to make their specifications known to the Company; provided, however, that if the Holder fails to make any specification within such time period, the Holder's choice shall be deemed to be whatever choice is made by a plurality of the holders of Common Stock not affiliated with the Company or, in the case of a consolidation, merger, sale or disposition, the other parties thereto. Such new Warrant shall provide for adjustments that, for events subsequent to the effective date of such new Warrant, shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 3. The foregoing provisions shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers or asset acquisitions.
Sale of Assets The Company or the Bank sells to a third party all or substantially all of its assets.
