surrender USC will cause to be paid, to the Person in whose name the
certificates representing those whole shares of USC Common Stock will then be
issued, the amount of dividends or other distributions

payment date or as soon as practicable thereafter, USC will cause to be paid to

hereto will take all actions necessary to (A) effect the Acquisition (including,
as permitted by the CGCL and the DGCL, (i) the execution of a Certificate of
