Mergers, Etc Borrower may merge into or be consolidated with any entity, provided that the entity acquiring or succeeding to Borrower shall expressly assume the obligations of Borrower to Bank in writing, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Bank, executed by such entity and delivered to Bank not later than the effective date of such acquisition, merger, or consolidation. In addition, nothing herein contained shall prevent Borrower from being a party to any merger and taking such actions, including, without limitation, borrowing money and issuing stock, as are deemed necessary or appropriate by the Board of Directors of Borrower in connection therewith, (A) where Borrower is the surviving corporation and (B) provided that after any such merger, no event shall have occurred and be continuing that constitutes a Default or an Event of Default as defined under this Agreement. Nothing herein contained shall be construed in any way as limiting the right or ability of any Subsidiary to be involved in a merger or consolidation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall give Bank reasonable advance notice of any proposed merger (other than a merger of Subsidiaries or between Borrower and any Subsidiary where Borrower is the survivor). Borrower shall not complete any proposed without the prior approval of Bank, which shall not be withheld or delayed unreasonably, it being acknowledged by Bank that time may be of the utmost importance with respect to certain proposed transactions. Except as provided in the proviso at the end of this sentence, any disapproval by Bank shall be based solely upon the financial condition of Borrower or the company into which it is merged immediately after the merger: neither the nature of the business of the other company nor any other non-financial factors may be utilized as a basis for disapproval, provided that the business of the other company is of a type not inconsistent with Bank's customary lending standards.
