of the Company, and at any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof,
however called or convened, or pursuant to any consent in lieu of a meeting

adoption of the Merger Agreement and the Transactions contemplated
thereby, and any actions required in furtherance thereof; and

articles of association, against the following actions or proposals
(other than the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement):
(A) any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger,
consolidation or other business combination involving the Company or
