Exchangeable Notes. As promptly as practicable following the public announcement of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, ARP OP shall provide the notice required to be delivered to the Notes Trustee and the holders of Exchangeable Notes pursuant to Section 13.01(b)(iv) of the Notes Indenture. AMH shall use its reasonable best efforts to take all action necessary (i) to execute with the Notes Trustee (as defined below) the supplemental indenture required by Section 13.05 of the Notes Indenture (as defined below) in respect of the Mergers and (ii) to deliver to the Notes Trustee the officer’s certificate and the opinion of counsel required by Section 10.01 of the Notes Indenture in respect of the Mergers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Notes Indenture, in no event will AMH issue more than 19.99% of the outstanding shares of AMH Common Shares as of immediately prior to the Closing (which equates to approximately 52,448,199 shares as of the date hereof, subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits or combinations) in connection with the Mergers as contemplated by Article III hereunder together with any exchange of the Exchangeable Notes pursuant to the Notes Indenture (whether occurring at or after the Closing), unless or until such time as AMH shall have obtained shareholder approval to issue shares in excess of such amount in accordance with the NYSE Listed Company Manual. For the avoidance of doubt, AMH shall have no duty, obligation or commitment to seek shareholder approval to issue shares in excess of such amount. If any such exchange of the Exchangeable Notes would result in the issuance of more than such number of shares of AMH Common Stock and no shareholder approval has been obtained, such exchanges shall be settled in cash (along with any other exchanges required to be settled in a similar fashion pursuant to the Notes Indenture).
