No Dissenters’ Rights No dissenters’ or appraisal rights shall be available with respect to the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
Dissenters’ Rights Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, and held by holders who are entitled to appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL and have properly exercised and perfected their respective demands for appraisal of such Shares in the time and manner provided in Section 262 of the DGCL and, as of the Effective Time, have neither effectively withdrawn nor lost their rights to such appraisal and payment under the DGCL (the “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into the right to receive Merger Consideration, but shall, by virtue of the Merger, be automatically cancelled and no longer outstanding, shall cease to exist and shall be entitled to only such consideration as shall be determined pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL; provided that if any such holder shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such holder’s right to appraisal and payment under the DGCL, such holder’s Shares shall be deemed to have been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (less any amounts entitled to be deducted or withheld pursuant to Section 2.6(e)), and such Shares shall not be deemed to be Dissenting Shares. The Company shall give prompt notice to Parent and Purchaser of any demands received by the Company for appraisal of any Dissenting Shares, withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL, in each case prior to the Effective Time. Parent and Purchaser shall have the right to direct and participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands, and the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Parent and Purchaser, settle or offer to settle, or make any payment with respect to, any such demands, or agree or commit to do any of the foregoing.
Waiver of Dissenters’ Rights Shareholder hereby waives, and agrees not to assert or perfect (and agrees to cause not to be asserted and perfected), any appraisal or dissenters’ rights with respect to any of the Shareholder Shares in connection with the Merger.
Waiver of Appraisal and Dissenters’ Rights and Actions Stockholder hereby (i) waives and agrees not to exercise any rights (including under Section 262 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware) to demand appraisal of any Company Shares Beneficially Owned by Stockholder or rights to dissent from the Merger which may arise with respect to the Merger and (ii) agrees not to commence or participate in, and to take all actions necessary to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any claim, derivative or other Proceeding, against Parent, Acquisition Sub, the Company or any of their respective successors relating to the negotiation, execution or delivery of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement or the making or consummation of the Offer or consummation of the Merger, including any Proceeding (x) challenging the validity of, or seeking to enjoin the operation of, any provision of this Agreement or (y) alleging a breach of any fiduciary duty of the Board of Directors of the Company in connection with the Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby.
Waiver of Appraisal and Dissenters’ Rights Stockholder hereby waives, and agrees not to assert or perfect, any rights of appraisal or rights to dissent from the Merger that Stockholder may have by virtue of ownership of the Shares.
Absence of Appraisal or Dissenters’ Rights No Shareholder shall be entitled, as a matter of right, to relief as a dissenting Shareholder in respect of any proposal or action involving the Trust or any Series or any Class thereof.
Appraisal and Dissenters’ Rights No Company Stockholder who has validly exercised its appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL (a “Dissenting Stockholder”) with respect to its Company Stock (such shares, “Dissenting Shares”) shall be entitled to receive any portion of the Merger Consideration with respect to the Dissenting Shares owned by such Dissenting Stockholder unless and until such Dissenting Stockholder shall have effectively withdrawn or lost its appraisal rights under the DGCL. Each Dissenting Stockholder shall be entitled to receive only the payment resulting from the procedure set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL with respect to the Dissenting Shares owned by such Dissenting Stockholder. The Company shall give the Purchaser and the Purchaser Representative (i) prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal, attempted withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to applicable Laws that are received by the Company relating to any Dissenting Stockholder’s rights of appraisal and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demand for appraisal under the DGCL. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Purchaser and the Purchaser Representative, voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal, offer to settle or settle any such demands or approve any withdrawal of any such demands. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, for all purposes of this Agreement, the Merger Consideration shall be reduced by the Pro Rata Share of any Dissenting Stockholders attributable to any Dissenting Shares and the Dissenting Stockholders shall have no rights to any portion of the Merger Consideration with respect to any Dissenting Shares.
Step-In Rights If Agios, as the Initial Enforcement Party, fails to initiate a suit or take such other appropriate action under Section 10.3(b) above within [**] days after becoming aware of the Competitive Infringement, then Celgene may, in its discretion, provide Agios with written notice of Celgene’s intent to initiate a suit or take other appropriate action to combat such Competitive Infringement. If Celgene, as the Initial Enforcement Party for the Agios Patent Rights and Agios Collaboration Patent Rights after the Agios Opt-Out Notice, fails to initiate a suit or take such other appropriate action under Section 10.3(b) above within [**] days after becoming aware of the Competitive Infringement, then Agios may, in its discretion, provide Celgene with written notice of Agios’ intent to initiate a suit or take other appropriate action to combat such Competitive Infringement. If the Party with such step-in rights under either of the two preceding sentences (“Step-In Enforcement Party”) provides such notice and the Initial Enforcement Party fails to initiate a suit or take such other appropriate action within [**] days after receipt of such notice from the Step-In Enforcement Party, then Step-In Enforcement Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to initiate a suit or take other appropriate action that it believes is reasonably required to protect the applicable Agios Intellectual Property or Agios Collaboration Intellectual Property from Competitive Infringement. The Step-In Enforcement Party shall give the Initial Enforcement Party advance notice of the Step-In Enforcement Party’s intent to file any such suit or take any such action and the reasons therefor and shall provide the Initial Enforcement Party with an opportunity to make suggestions and comments regarding such suit or action. Thereafter, the Step-In Enforcement Party shall keep the Initial Enforcement Party promptly informed and shall from time to time consult with the Initial Enforcement Party regarding the status of any such suit or action and shall provide the Initial Enforcement Party with copies of all material documents (e.g., complaints, answers, counterclaims, material motions, orders of the court, memoranda of law and legal briefs, interrogatory responses, depositions, material pre-trial filings, expert reports, affidavits filed in court, transcripts of hearings and trial testimony, trial exhibits and notices of appeal) filed in, or otherwise relating to, such suit or action. For the avoidance of any doubt, this Section 10.3(d) shall not be applicable to any of the Celgene Collaboration Patent Rights, so Agios shall not have any right to be the Step-In Enforcement Party for Celgene Collaboration Patent Rights without the written agreement of Celgene.
Stockholder's Rights A Participant shall have no dividend rights, voting rights or other rights as a stockholder with respect to any Common Shares covered by his or her Award prior to the time when a stock certificate for such Common Shares is issued or, if applicable, the time when he or she becomes entitled to receive such Common Shares by filing any required notice of exercise and paying any required Exercise Price. No adjustment shall be made for cash dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to such time, except as expressly provided in the Plan.
Dissenters Each outstanding share of capital stock of the Company the holder of which has perfected his right to dissent under applicable law and has not effectively withdrawn or lost such right as of the Effective Time (the "Dissenting Shares") shall not be converted into the right to receive Basic Purchase Consideration, and the holder thereof shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by applicable law. The Company shall give Centerprise prompt notice upon receipt by the Company of any such written demands for payment of fair value of shares of capital stock of the Company and any other instruments provided pursuant to applicable law. Any payments made in respect of Dissenting Shares shall be made by the Surviving Corporation.
