(a) (i) In the event the Company shall at any time after the date of this Agreement (A) declare a dividend on the Exchangeable Common Shares payable in Exchangeable Common Shares, (B) subdivide the outstanding Exchangeable Common Shares, (C) combine the outstanding Exchangeable Common Shares into a smaller number of Exchangeable Common Shares or (D) issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Exchangeable Common Shares (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing or surviving corporation), except as otherwise provided in this Section 11(a), the Purchase Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or of the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification, and the number and kind of shares of capital stock issuable on such date, shall be proportionately adjusted so that the holder of any Right exercised after such time shall be entitled to receive the aggregate number and kind of shares of capital stock which, if such Right had been exercised immediately prior to such date and at a time when the Exchangeable Common Shares transfer books of the Company were open, he such holder would have owned upon such exercise and been entitled to receive by virtue of such dividend, subdivision, combination or reclassification; (ii) Subject provided, however, that in no event shall the consideration to Section 24 be paid upon the exercise of this Agreement, in one Right be less than the event any Person becomes an Acquiring Person, (A) the Company shall provide notice thereof to the Rights Agent, including the name aggregate par value of the Acquiring Person and any Associates and Affiliates shares of the Acquiring Person known to the Company, and (B) each holder of a Right (other than any Rights that are or were acquired or beneficially owned by any Acquiring Person or by any Associate or Affiliate of any Acquiring Person) shall thereafter have a right to receive, upon exercise thereof at a price equal to the then current Purchase Price multiplied by the number of Exchangeable Shares for which a Right is then exercisable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and in lieu of such number of Exchangeable Shares, such other number of Exchangeable Shares capital stock of the Company as issuable upon exercise of one Right. If an event occurs which would require an adjustment under both Section 11(a)(i) and Section 11(a)(ii), the adjustment provided for in this Section 11(a)(i) shall equal the result obtained by (x) multiplying the then current Purchase Price by the number of Exchangeable Shares for which a Right is then exercisable be in addition to, and dividing that product by (y) 50% of the then current per share market price of the Exchangeable Shares (determined shall be made prior to, any adjustment required pursuant to Section 11(d) hereof) on the date of the occurrence of such event. From and after the occurrence of such event, any Rights that are or were acquired or beneficially owned by an Acquiring Person (or any Associate or Affiliate of any Acquiring Person) shall be void and any holder of such Rights shall thereafter have no right to exercise such Rights under any provision of this Agreement. No Right Certificate shall be issued pursuant to Section 3 that represents Rights beneficially owned by an Acquiring Person whose Rights would be void pursuant to the preceding sentence or any Associate or Affiliate thereof; no Right Certificate shall be issued at any time upon the transfer of any Rights to an Acquiring Person whose Rights would be void pursuant to the preceding sentence or any Associate or Affiliate thereof or to any nominee of such Acquiring Person, Associate or Affiliate; and any Right Certificate delivered to the Rights Agent for transfer to an Acquiring Person whose Rights would be void pursuant to the preceding sentence or any Associate or Affiliate thereof shall be cancelled.
