Approval of Certain Extraordinary Actions and Charter Amendments Clause Samples

The 'Approval of Certain Extraordinary Actions and Charter Amendments' clause establishes that specific significant decisions—such as major corporate actions or changes to the company's foundational documents—require a higher level of approval, often from a supermajority of shareholders or board members. This may include actions like mergers, acquisitions, dissolution, or amendments to the company's charter or bylaws. By requiring enhanced approval thresholds for these extraordinary actions, the clause protects stakeholders from unilateral or hasty decisions that could fundamentally alter the company's structure or operations.

  • Effect of Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale If any of the following events occur, namely (i) any reclassification or change of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than (x) a subdivision or combination to which Section 14.05(c) applies) as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock, (ii) any consolidation, merger or combination of the Company with another Person as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock, or (iii) any sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company to any other Person as a result of which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) with respect to or in exchange for such Common Stock, then the Company or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture (in form satisfactory to the Trustee) providing that each Note shall be convertible into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance by a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Notes (assuming, for such purposes, a sufficient number of authorized shares of Common Stock are available to convert all such Notes) immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance assuming such holder of Common Stock did not exercise such holder’s rights of election, if any, as to the kind or amount of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance (provided that, if the kind or amount of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance is not the same for each share of Common Stock in respect of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised (“Non-electing share”), then for the purposes of this Section the kind and amount of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance for each Non-electing share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of the Non-electing shares). Such supplemental indenture shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article. The Company shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be mailed to each holder of Notes, at its address appearing on the Security Register provided for in Section 4.02 of this Indenture, within twenty (20) days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture. The above provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, consolidations, mergers, combinations, sales and conveyances. If this Section applies to any event or occurrence, Section 14.05 shall not apply.

  • Limitation on Effecting Transactions Resulting in Certain Adjustments The Company will not engage in or be a party to any transaction or event that would require the Conversion Rate to be adjusted pursuant to Section 5.05(A) or Section 5.07 to an amount that would result in the Conversion Price per share of Common Stock being less than the par value per share of Common Stock.
