issued and outstanding on the Merger Date shall, by virtue of the
merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, be

the holders of outstanding certificates of TAC Common Stock;
provided, however, that upon surrender and exchange of such
outstanding certificates (other than certificates representing

interest thereon, of dividends and other distributions that would
have been payable subsequent to the Merger Date with respect to the

board of directors of the Surviving Corporation shall be the members

Corporation. All the property, real, personal, and mixed, of each
of the Constituent Corporations, and all debts due to either of
them, shall be transferred to and vested in the Surviving
Corporation, without further act or deed. The Surviving Corporation
shall thenceforth be responsible and liable for all the liabilities
