PROXY
Section 2.1 Irrevocable Proxy and Power of Attorney.
(a) Subject to Section 2.1(b), Section 2.1(c), Section 2.3 and Section 3.12, and in each case subject to any limitations imposed by applicable Law, effective as of the Closing, each Other Shareholder hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints AMH with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful proxy and attorney-in-fact to vote all of such Other Shareholder’s Subject Shares at any meeting (and any adjournment or postponement thereof) of AHL’s shareholders and in connection with any written consent of AHL’s shareholders.
(b) The proxy and power of attorney granted herein (the “Proxy”) shall be irrevocable during the Term, shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable proxy, and shall revoke all prior proxies granted by such Other Shareholder (if any) with respect to such Other Shareholder’s Subject Shares. No Other Shareholder shall grant to any entity or other person any proxy which conflicts with the Proxy, and any attempt to do so shall be void.
(c) AMH may exercise the Proxy with respect to the Subject Shares only during the Term, and during the Term AMH shall have the right to vote the Subject Shares at any meeting of AHL’s shareholders and in any action by written consent of AHL’s shareholders in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.1(a). Unless expressly requested by AMH in writing, no Other Shareholder shall vote all or any portion of the Subject Shares at any such meeting or in connection with any such written consent of shareholders. During the Term, the vote, written consent or other action by AMH shall control in any conflict between a vote of or written consent or other action with respect to the Subject Shares by AMH, and a vote of or written consent or other action by any Other Shareholder with respect to the Subject Shares.
(d) The Other Shareholders shall execute and deliver all such further documents and take such other actions as may be required by the AHL Bye-Laws to effectuate the Proxy.
Section 2.2 Covenants of the Other Shareholders. Each Other Shareholder covenants and agrees that, while the Proxy is in effect with respect to any of such Other Shareholder’s Subject Shares, and except as contemplated by this Agreement, (i) not to enter into any voting agreements, whether by proxy, voting agreement or other voting arrangement with respect to such Other Shareholder’s Subject Shares, and (ii) not to take any action that would make any representation or warranty of such Other Shareholder contained herein untrue or incorrect, in each case, that would have the effect of preventing such Other Shareholder from performing its obligations under this Agreement.
Section 2.3 Term and Termination. The term of the Proxy and each Other Shareholder’s covenants and agreements contained herein shall commence as of the Closing and shall terminate (i) with respect to any Other Shareholder’s Subject Shares, automatically with respect to any Subject Share of such Other Shareholder (x) as and when, and to the extent, that such Subject Share ceases to constitute a Subject Share or (y) upon written notice by AMH to such Other Shareholder and (ii) with respect to all Subject Shares, upon the occurrence of the Fall-Away Date, in each case, without any requirement for any further act by any Other Shareholder or AMH or the delivery of any certificate to memorialize the same (the “Term”).
Section 2.4 No Liability. Neither AMH, nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable, responsible or accountable in damages or otherwise to any Other Shareholder or any Related Party of any Other Shareholder by reason of any act or omission related to the possession or exercise of the Proxy in accordance with this Agreement. Each Other Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that no duty is owed to such Other Shareholder by AMH or any of its Related Parties in connection with or as a result of the granting of the Proxy or by reason of any act or omission related to the possession or the exercise thereof, and, to the extent any duty shall nonetheless be deemed or found to exist, such Other Shareholder hereby expressly and knowingly irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all such duty or duties, regardless of type or source.
Section 2.5 Assignment. Subject to Section 2.9, neither this Agreement nor the Proxy shall not be assignable by an Other Shareholder or by AMH.
Section 2.6 No Ownership Interest. Except as expressly set forth in this ARTICLE II, nothing contained in this ARTICLE II shall be deemed to vest in AMH any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to the Subject Shares.
Section 2.7 Binding Effect; Reliance. All decisions, actions, consents and instructions of AMH in respect of the exercise of the Proxy in accordance with this Agreement shall be final and binding upon all of the Other Shareholders, and no such Person shall have any right to object, dissent, protest or otherwise contest the same. Other Shareholders shall be bound by all actions taken and documents executed by AMH in respect of the exercise of the Proxy in accordance with this Agreement, and AHL shall be entitled to rely on any action or decision of AMH in respect of the exercise of the Proxy in accordance with this Agreement. Notices or communications to or from AMH in respect of the exercise of the Proxy in accordance with this Agreement shall constitute notice to or from each of Other Shareholders.
Section 2.8 Regulatory Matters. Each Other Shareholder shall reasonably cooperate with AMH and its representatives in connection with any consents, approvals, authorizations, waivers, permits, filings and notifications of Governmental Entities (including the SEC and any insurance regulator located in the United States or other jurisdiction) that AMH makes or obtains for any matter that relates to, or arises from, the Proxy. Such cooperation shall be at AMH’s sole expense, and AMH shall indemnify and hold harmless each Other Shareholder for any and all liabilities incurred by such Other Shareholder in connection with any action taken pursuant to this Section 2.8.
Section 2.9 Transfers and Joinders. Subject to receipt of all required consents, approvals and authorizations, AMH shall be permitted to assign the Proxy to any Permitted Transferee that beneficially owns Class A Shares, provided that such Permitted Transferee shall, prior to or concurrently with such Transfer, cause such Permitted Transferee to execute a joinder to this Agreement, in which such Permitted Transferee agrees to be bound by and shall fully comply with the terms of this Agreement that are applicable to AMH. If, following a Transfer of any Subject Shares by an Other Shareholder, such Subject Shares continue to constitute Subject Shares, then such Other Shareholder shall cause the applicable transferee to execute a joinder to this Agreement, in which such transferee agrees to be bound by and shall fully comply with the terms of this Agreement that are applicable to such Other Shareholder to the extent relating to such Subject Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, a joinder to this Agreement executed in accordance with the foregoing shall not require the consent of any other party hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything herein to the contrary, AMH shall not be relieved of any obligation or liability hereunder arising prior to the consummation of any such assignment of the Proxy.
