The board of directors of AB has adopted a resolution recommending approval of this Agreement and the Merger by AB’s shareholders, and it shall not withdraw, modify, or qualify its recommendation unless, subsequent to the Execution Date, AB receives a Superior Proposal and the board of directors of AB determines, in good faith and upon the written advice of independent legal counsel, that it would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law not to withdraw, modify, or qualify such recommendation.

Subject to applicable Law, AB shall adjourn or postpone the AB Meeting if, as of the time for which such meeting is originally scheduled, there are insufficient shares of AB Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of such meeting, or if, on the date of such AB Meeting, (a) AB has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares necessary to obtain the required approval by AB’s shareholders and such approval remains possible to obtain and (b) the shareholders of AB have authorized by the requisite vote under Utah Law the adjournment pursuant to the Prospectus/Proxy Statement; provided that AB shall only be required to adjourn the AB Meeting two times pursuant to this Section 4.3.2.
