  (1) In accordance with the Plan of Arrangement, at the Effective Time, Tundra shall accelerate the vesting of each outstanding, unvested In-The-Money Tundra Option in accordance with the terms of the applicable Tundra Stock Option Plan immediately following which each unexercised In-The-Money Tundra Option, without any further action on behalf of any holder of such In-The-Money Tundra Option and without any payment except as provided in the Plan of Arrangement, and subject to (for greater certainty) applicable withholdings in accordance with Section 2.9, shall be transferred by the holder thereof to Tundra in consideration for a cash payment by Tundra equal to the product obtained by multiplying the number of Tundra Shares underlying such In-The-Money Tundra Option by the amount by which the Consideration per Tundra Share exceeds the exercise price of such In The-Money Tundra Option. Each unexercised In-The-Money Tundra Option issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall thereafter be immediately cancelled.

 

18


  (2) In accordance with the Plan of Arrangement, at the time specified therein, each Out-Of The-Money Tundra Option, without any further action on behalf of any holder of such Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option, shall be exchanged into an option (a “Replacement Option”) to purchase from Parent the number of Parent Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole number of such shares) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the Exchange Ratio by (ii) the number of Tundra Shares subject to such Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, and each holder of such exchanged Out-Of-The Money Tundra Option shall immediately become a holder of the number of Replacement Options to which such holder is entitled as a result of the exchange, and each such exchanged Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option shall be immediately cancelled. For each Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option, such Replacement Option shall provide for an exercise price per Parent Share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) in United States dollars equal to (i) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the exercise price per Tundra Share of such Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option immediately prior to the Effective Time by (y) the Exchange Ratio, divided by (ii) the Currency Exchange Rate and, except as otherwise set out in the Plan of Arrangement, each Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option shall continue to be governed by the terms and conditions of the applicable Tundra Stock Option Plan and any stock option agreement pursuant to which such Tundra Option was granted (including, but not limited to, the term to expiry, conditions to and manner of exercising and vesting schedule), with any adjustments deemed to be made thereto as are necessary to ensure consistency with the provisions of the Plan of Arrangement.

Notwithstanding the above provisions of this Section 2.7(2),

 

  (a) with respect to any Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option, if the Parent Board of Directors determine in good faith that the excess of the aggregate fair market value of the Parent Shares subject to the Replacement Option immediately after the issuance of the Replacement Option over the aggregate option exercise price for such shares pursuant to the Replacement Option (such excess, referred to as the “Post-Exchange Option Value”) would otherwise exceed the excess of the aggregate fair market value of the Tundra Shares subject to such Tundra Option immediately before the issuance of the Replacement Option over the aggregate option exercise price for such shares pursuant to such Tundra Option (such excess, referred to as the “Pre-Exchange Option Value”), the previous provisions in this Section 2.7(2) shall be modified, but only to the extent necessary and in a manner that does not otherwise adversely affect the holder of the Replacement Option, so that the Post-Exchange Option Value does not exceed the Pre-Exchange Option Value; and

 

  (b) with respect only to an Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option that is held by a resident of the United States, the exercise price and the number of Parent Shares subject to a Replacement Option shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the IRC; provided, further, that in the case of any such Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option which was an incentive stock option (as defined in Section 422 of the IRC) immediately prior to the Effective Time, the exercise price, the number of Parent Shares and the terms and conditions of the Replacement Option shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 424(a) of the IRC.

 

19


  (3) In accordance with the Plan of Arrangement, notwithstanding any contingent vesting provisions to which a Tundra RSU might otherwise have been subject, and without any further action on behalf of any holder of such Tundra RSU and without any payment except as provided in the Plan of Arrangement, at the time specified in the Plan of Arrangement, Tundra shall accelerate the vesting of each outstanding, unvested Tundra RSU in accordance with the terms of the Tundra Restricted Share Unit Plan and Tundra shall, subject to (for greater certainty) applicable withholdings in accordance with Section 2.9, deliver to each holder of a Tundra RSU outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time an amount equal to the Consideration in settlement of each such Tundra RSU.

 

  (4) Tundra shall take all necessary actions to provide the holders of Tundra Options and Tundra RSUs with any applicable notice required by the Tundra Stock Option Plans and/or the Tundra Restricted Share Unit Plan. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the holders of Replacement Options appropriate notice setting forth such holders’ rights pursuant to such Replacement Options.

 

  (5) Prior to the Effective Time, the Tundra Board of Directors shall take all necessary action required by, and in accordance with, the Tundra Stock Option Plans and the Tundra Restricted Share Unit Plan in order to give effect to Sections 2.7(1), 2.7(2), 2.7(3) and 2.7(4).

 

  (6) Other than in accordance with Section 2.7(1), Tundra shall not accelerate the vesting of any Tundra Stock Options.

To the extent that amounts are so withheld or deducted and paid over to the applicable Governmental Entity, such withheld or deducted amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement as having been paid to such person in respect of which such deduction and withholding were made.

 

2.10 Adjustments to Consideration

If, on or after the date hereof, Tundra declares, sets aside or pays any dividend or other distribution payable in cash, securities, property or otherwise with respect to the Tundra Shares, or sets a record date therefor that is prior to the Effective Date, then the Consideration shall be adjusted to reflect such dividend or other distribution by way of a reduction to the Consideration by an amount equal to the value of such dividend or other distribution.

  (a) cause any of the representations or warranties of such Party (including, in the case of Parent SubCo, Parent) contained herein to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect on the date hereof or at the Effective Time; or

 

38


  (b) result in the failure to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by such Party (including, in the case of Parent SubCo, Parent) hereunder prior to the Effective Time.

 

  (2) Parent SubCo may not exercise its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(1)(c)(B) and Tundra may not exercise its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(1)(d)(B) unless the Party seeking to terminate this Agreement shall have delivered a written notice to the other Party specifying in reasonable detail all breaches of covenants, representations and warranties or other matters which the Party delivering such notice is asserting as the basis for the termination right. If any such notice is delivered, provided that a Party is proceeding diligently to cure such matter and such matter is reasonably capable of being cured (except matters arising out of the failure to make appropriate disclosure in Tundra Disclosure Letter), no Party may exercise such termination right until the earlier of (a) the Outside Date and (b) the date that is 30 days following receipt of such notice by the Party to whom the notice was delivered, if such matter has not been cured by such date. If such notice has been delivered prior to the date of the Meeting, such meeting shall, unless the Parties agree otherwise, be postponed or adjourned until the earlier of (i) five business days prior to the Outside Date and (ii) the date that is 30 days following receipt of such notice by the Party to whom the notice was delivered (without causing any breach of any other provision contained herein).

 

  (3) Each Party shall promptly notify the other Parties of (a) any communication from any person alleging that the consent of such person (or another person) is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (and the response thereto from such Party, its subsidiaries or its representatives), and (b) any material legal actions threatened or commenced against or otherwise affecting such Party or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates that are related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

7.2 Non-Solicitation

 

  (1) Except as expressly provided in this Section 7.2, Tundra shall not, directly or indirectly, through any officer, director, employee, representative (including any financial or other advisor) or agent of Tundra or any of its subsidiaries (collectively, “Representatives”): (a) solicit, facilitate, encourage or initiate any inquiries or proposals regarding, or that may reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal; (b) encourage or participate in any discussions or negotiations, including by furnishing any information relating to Tundra or any of its subsidiaries or affording access to the business, properties, assets, books or records of Tundra or its subsidiaries, with any person (other than Parent or Parent SubCo) regarding an Acquisition Proposal; (c) make a Change in Recommendation; (d) accept, approve, endorse or recommend, or propose publicly to accept, approve, endorse or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal; or (e) accept, approve, endorse, recommend or enter into, or publicly propose to accept, approve, endorse, recommend or enter into, any Contract in respect of an Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality and standstill agreement permitted by Section 7.2(3)).

 

39


  (2) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7.2, Tundra shall, and shall cause its subsidiaries and Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any solicitation, encouragement, discussion or negotiation with any persons conducted heretofore by Tundra, its subsidiaries or any Representatives with respect to, or that may reasonably be expected to lead to, any actual or potential Acquisition Proposal, and, in connection therewith, Tundra shall discontinue access to any such person to the Data Room (and not establish or allow access to any other data rooms, virtual or otherwise or otherwise furnish information) and shall as soon as possible request, to the extent that it is entitled to do so (and exercise all rights it has to require) the return or destruction of all confidential information regarding Tundra and its subsidiaries previously provided to any such person or any other person and shall request (and exercise all rights it has to require) the destruction of all material including or incorporating or otherwise reflecting any material confidential information regarding Tundra and its subsidiaries. Tundra agrees that neither it, nor any of its subsidiaries, shall terminate, waive, amend or modify, and agrees to actively prosecute and enforce, its rights under any agreement containing standstill provisions and any provision of any existing confidentiality agreement or any standstill agreement to which it or any of its subsidiaries is a party, it being acknowledged and agreed that the automatic termination of any standstill provisions of any such agreement as a result of entering into and announcement of this Agreement by Tundra, pursuant to the express terms of any such agreement, shall not be a violation of this Section 7.2(2) and that Tundra shall not be prohibited from considering a Superior Proposal from a party whose standstill obligations terminated automatically upon the entering into and announcement of this Agreement.

 

  (3) Notwithstanding Section 7.2(1), Section 7.2(2) and any other provision of this Agreement, if at any time following the date of this Agreement and prior to obtaining the approval of the Arrangement Resolution by the Tundra Shareholders at the Meeting, Tundra receives a written Acquisition Proposal not resulting from a breach of this Section 7.2 that the Tundra Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal advisors, constitutes or is reasonably likely to constitute (assuming completion of a due diligence review not exceeding 12 calendar days from the date of Tundra’s receipt of the first Acquisition Proposal directly or indirectly from a particular person or any affiliate thereof or joint actor thereof (as defined in the Securities Act) directly or indirectly making the Acquisition Proposal (the “Restricted Period”)) if consummated in accordance with its terms (but not assuming away any risk of non-completion) a Superior Proposal, then Tundra may, following compliance with Section 7.2(4):

 

  (a) furnish information with respect to Tundra and its subsidiaries to the person making such Acquisition Proposal for a period of review not to exceed the Restricted Period; and/or

 

40


  (b) enter into, participate, facilitate and maintain discussions or negotiations with, and otherwise cooperate with or assist, the person making such Acquisition Proposal for a period of review not to exceed the Restricted Period;

provided that Tundra shall not, and shall not allow its Representatives to, disclose any non-public information to such person without having entered into a confidentiality and standstill agreement (a correct and complete copy of which confidentiality and standstill agreement shall be provided to Parent SubCo before any such non-public information is provided) with such person that contains provisions that are no less favourable to Tundra than those contained in the Confidentiality Agreements (with the terms of the agreement dated April 15, 2009 governing to the extent of discrepancy with the agreement dated January 23, 2009), provided that such confidentiality and standstill agreement may not include any provision calling for an exclusive right to negotiate with Tundra and may not restrict Tundra or its subsidiaries from complying with this Section 7.2, and Tundra shall promptly provide to Parent SubCo any material non-public information concerning Tundra or its subsidiaries provided to such other person which was not previously provided to Parent SubCo.

 

  (4) Tundra shall promptly (and in any event within 24 hours following receipt) notify Parent SubCo (at first orally and thereafter in writing) in the event it receives after the date hereof any Acquisition Proposal (including any request for non-public information relating to Tundra or any of its subsidiaries or for access to the properties, books or records of Tundra or its subsidiaries, in each case, in connection with, or that may reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal) or any inquiry or proposal that may reasonably be expected to lead to an Acquisition Proposal together with a copy of all documents relating to such Acquisition Proposal or inquiry, and including the material terms and conditions thereof (including the identity of the person making the Acquisition Proposal), and shall regularly and promptly inform Parent SubCo in writing as to the status of developments and communications with respect to such Acquisition Proposal or inquiry, including any changes to the material terms or conditions, of such Acquisition Proposal or inquiry.

 

  (5) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if at any time following the date of this Agreement and prior to obtaining the approval of the Arrangement Resolution by Tundra Shareholders at the Meeting, Tundra receives an Acquisition Proposal not resulting from a breach of this Section 7.2 that the Board of Directors concludes in good faith, after consultation with its financial and outside legal advisors, constitutes a Superior Proposal, the Tundra Board of Directors may, subject to compliance with the procedures set forth in Section 8.1(1)(d)(A), authorize Tundra to terminate this Agreement in order to accept, approve, endorse and recommend such Superior Proposal and, contemporaneously, enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal if the Tundra Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal advisors, that failure to take such action would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties under applicable Law, if and only if:

 

  (a) it has provided Parent SubCo with a copy of the Superior Proposal document, together with any financing documents supplied to Tundra in connection therewith, and written confirmation from Tundra that the Tundra Board of Directors has determined that the proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal; and

 

41


  (b) five business days (the “Matching Period”) shall have elapsed from the date that is the later of (i) the date Parent SubCo received written notice advising Parent SubCo that the Tundra Board of Directors has resolved, subject only to compliance with this Section 7.2 (including complying with the procedures set forth in Section 8.l(1)(d)(A)), to terminate this Agreement in order to accept, approve, endorse and recommend such Superior Proposal and, contemporaneously, enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal and (ii) the date Parent SubCo has received all of the materials set forth in Section 7.2(5)(a) (it being understood that Tundra shall promptly inform Parent SubCo of any amendment to the financial or other material terms of such Superior Proposal during such period).

 

  (6) During the Matching Period, Tundra agrees that Parent SubCo (on behalf of Parent and Parent SubCo) shall have the right, but not the obligation, to offer to amend the terms of this Agreement. The Tundra Board of Directors shall review any offer by Parent SubCo to amend the terms of this Agreement in good faith in order to determine, in its discretion in the exercise of its fiduciary duties and in consultation with its financial and outside legal advisors, whether Parent SubCo’s amended offer, upon acceptance by Tundra, would cause the Superior Proposal giving rise to the Matching Period to cease to be a Superior Proposal. If the Tundra Board of Directors so determines, Tundra shall enter into an amended agreement with Parent SubCo reflecting Parent SubCo’s amended offer. If, after the expiry of the Matching Period, the Tundra Board of Directors continues to believe, in good faith, after consultation with its financial and outside legal advisors, that such Superior Proposal remains a Superior Proposal and therefore rejects Parent SubCo’s amended offer, if any, or Parent SubCo fails to enter into an agreement with Tundra reflecting such amended offer, Tundra and the Tundra Board of Directors may, subject to compliance with the other provisions hereof, effect a Change in Recommendation (other than of the type referred to in clause (iv) of the definition thereof) and, subject to payment of the Termination Fee as set forth in Section 8.l(1)(d)(A), terminate this Agreement in order to accept, approve, endorse and recommend such Superior Proposal and, contemporaneously, enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal.

 

  (7) In the event that Tundra provides the notice contemplated by Section 7.2(5)(b) on a date which is less than five business days prior to the Meeting, Parent SubCo shall be entitled to require Tundra to adjourn or postpone the Meeting to a date that is not more than seven business days after the date of such notice.

 

42


  (8) Tundra acknowledges that each successive modification to any Acquisition Proposal shall constitute a new Acquisition Proposal for purposes of the requirement under Section 7.2(5)(b) and shall initiate a new five business day period. For greater certainty, each such successive modification shall not constitute a new Acquisition Proposal for purposes of Section 7.2(3) and, in any event, shall not give rise to an additional 12 calendar day period or extend a 12 calendar day period that has previously commenced pursuant to Section 7.2(3).

 

  (9) Nothing contained in this Article VII shall prohibit the Tundra Board of Directors from making a Change in Recommendation (other than of the type identified in clause (iv) of the definition thereof) or from making any disclosure to any securityholders of Tundra prior to the Effective Time, including for greater certainty disclosure of a Change in Recommendation, if, in the good faith judgment of the Tundra Board of Directors, after consultation with outside legal counsel, failure to take such action or make such disclosure would be or would reasonably be expected to be a breach of the Tundra Board of Directors’ exercise of its fiduciary duties or such action or disclosure is otherwise required under applicable Law, provided that for greater certainty in the event of a Change of Recommendation and a termination by Parent SubCo of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(1)(c)(A), Tundra shall pay the Termination Fee as required by Section 7.3(2). The Tundra Board of Directors may not make a Change in Recommendation pursuant to the preceding sentence unless Tundra gives Parent SubCo at least two business days prior written notice of its intention to make such Change in Recommendation. In addition, nothing contained in this Agreement shall prevent Tundra or the Tundra Board of Directors from calling and holding a meeting of the Tundra Shareholders, or any of them, requisitioned by the Tundra Shareholders, or any of them, in accordance with the CBCA or ordered to be held by a court in accordance with applicable Laws.

 

7.3 Termination Fee

 

  (1) Subject to Section 7.4, each Party shall pay all fees, costs and expenses incurred by such Party in connection with this Agreement and the Arrangement.

 

  (2) If a Termination Fee Event occurs, Tundra shall pay as directed by Parent SubCo in writing (by wire transfer of immediately available funds) the Termination Fee in accordance with Section 7.3(3). For the purposes of this Agreement, “Termination Fee” means $5,400,000 and “Termination Fee Event” means:

 

  (a) the termination of this Agreement pursuant to (i) Section 8.1(1)(c)(A), (ii) Section 8.1(1)(d)(A) or (iii) any subsection of Section 8.1 if at such time Parent SubCo is entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(1)(c)(A); or

 

43


  (b) except where a Termination Fee has been paid, (i) the making or announcement or other public disclosure of an Acquisition Proposal, or an Acquisition Proposal otherwise is discussed with or becomes known to Tundra or the Tundra Board of Directors or an inquiry concerning an Acquisition Proposal is made to Tundra or the Tundra Board of Directors, after the announcement of the transactions contemplated herein and prior to the termination of this Agreement, (ii) the exercise by Tundra or Parent SubCo of their respective termination rights pursuant to Section 8.1(1)(b)(A), or the exercise by Parent SubCo of its termination rights pursuant to Section 8.1(1)(c)(B) or Section 8.1(1)(c)(D), or the exercise by Tundra of its termination rights pursuant to Section 8.1(1)(d)(C) and (iii) an Acquisition Proposal is consummated within a period of one year from the exercise of such termination rights, or an agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal is entered into by Tundra and/or any of its subsidiaries within such one year period and such Acquisition Proposal is subsequently consummated within 6 months of the expiry of such one year period; provided that for the purpose of this Section 7.3(2)(b), all references to “20%” in the definition of Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be references to “34%.”

 

  (3) If a Termination Fee Event occurs in circumstances described in Section 7.3(2)(a)(ii) or due to a termination of this Agreement by Tundra in circumstances described in Section 7.3(2)(a)(iii), the Termination Fee shall be paid simultaneously with the occurrence of such Termination Fee Event. If a Termination Fee Event occurs due to a termination of this Agreement by Parent SubCo in circumstances described in Section 7.3(2)(a)(i) or (iii), the Termination Fee shall be paid within two business days following such Termination Fee Event. If a Termination Fee Event occurs in the circumstances described in Section 7.3(2)(b), the Termination Fee shall be paid immediately upon the earlier of entry by Tundra and/or any of its subsidiaries into an agreement with respect to an Acquisition Proposal or consummation of an Acquisition Proposal.

 

  (4)

Each of the Parties acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 7.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement and that, without those agreements, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement. Tundra acknowledges that the payment amounts set out in Section 7.3(2) are payments of liquidated damages which are a genuine pre-estimate of the damages which Parent and Parent SubCo will suffer or incur as a result of the event giving rise to such payment and the resultant termination of this Agreement and are not penalties. Tundra irrevocably waives any right that it may have to raise as a defense that any such liquidated damages are excessive or punitive. For greater certainty, each Party agrees that, upon any termination of this Agreement under circumstances where Parent SubCo is entitled to, and directs payment of, the Termination Fee, provided the Termination Fee is paid in full, Parent and Parent SubCo shall be precluded from any other remedy against Tundra at law or in equity or otherwise (including, without limitation, an order for specific performance), and shall not seek to obtain any recovery, judgment, or damages of

 

44


 

any kind, including consequential, indirect, or punitive damages, against Tundra or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, managers, members, shareholders or affiliates in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions contemplated hereby.

 

  (5) Nothing in this Section 7.3 shall preclude a Party from seeking injunctive relief to restrain any breach or threatened breach of the covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, the Confidentiality Agreements or the Plan of Arrangement or to obtain specific performance of any such covenants or agreements, without the necessity of posting bond or security in connection therewith.

 

7.4 Expense Fees

 

  (1) In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to the exercise (i) by Parent SubCo of its rights pursuant to Sections 8.1(l)(c)(B), 8.1(l)(c)(C) or 8.1(1)(c)(D), or (ii) by Tundra of its rights pursuant to Section 8.1(1)(d)(C), in addition to the rights of Parent SubCo under Section 7.3(2) (including to any payment thereunder), Tundra shall pay as directed by Parent SubCo, within two business days following such termination, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated by Parent SubCo an amount equal to all of the charges and expenses incurred by Parent SubCo in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions and the financing thereof, up to a maximum amount of $750,000.

 

  (2) In the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to the exercise by Tundra of its rights pursuant to Section 8.1(1)(d)(B), Parent SubCo shall pay to Tundra, within two business days following such termination, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated by Tundra, an amount equal to all of the charges and expenses incurred by Tundra in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions, up to a maximum amount of $750,000.

 

  (3) In no event shall Tundra be obligated to pay to Parent SubCo under Sections 7.3 and 7.4 an amount in respect of the termination of this Agreement that is, in aggregate, in excess of the Termination Fee.

 

  (4) For greater certainty, each Party further agrees that any payment of amounts under this Section 7.4 shall not be exclusive of any other remedies to which the Parties may be entitled as a result of the termination of this Agreement.

 

7.5 Access to Information; Confidentiality Agreements

 

  (1) From the date hereof until the earlier of the Effective Time and the termination of this Agreement, subject to compliance with applicable Law and the terms of any Contract of Tundra or its subsidiaries, Tundra shall:

 

  (a) give to Parent SubCo and its representatives reasonable access to the officers, employees, agents, offices, properties (including for the purpose of conducting environmental assessments and investigations), books and records, including correspondence with regulators and work papers, of Tundra and its subsidiaries; and

 

45


  (b) furnish to Parent SubCo and its representatives such financial and operating data and other information as such persons may reasonably request.

 

  (2) Any investigation pursuant to this Section 7.5 shall be conducted during normal business hours and in such manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of the business of Tundra and its subsidiaries.

 

  (3) For greater certainty, the Parties shall treat, and shall cause their respective representatives to treat, all information furnished to them or any of such representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or pursuant to the terms of this Agreement in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the Tundra Disclosure Letter and all information contained in it is confidential and shall be treated in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreements. However, nothing subject to the Confidentiality Agreements nor anything contained herein shall limit the ability of any person to disclose such information as is required by Law.

 

7.6 Interim Period Consents

 

  (1) Parent SubCo shall, promptly following the date hereof, designate two individuals from either of whom Tundra may seek approval to undertake any actions not otherwise permitted to be taken under Section 5.1, and shall ensure that such persons shall respond, on behalf of Parent SubCo, to Tundra’s requests in an expeditious manner.

 

  (2) Tundra shall, promptly following the date hereof, designate two individuals from either of whom Parent SubCo may seek approval to undertake any actions not otherwise permitted to be taken under Section 5.3(2), and shall ensure that such persons shall respond, on behalf of Tundra, to Parent SubCo’s requests in an expeditious manner.

 

7.7 Insurance and Indemnification

 

  (1)

From and after the Effective Time, Parent or Parent SubCo will, at Parent’s or Parent SubCo’s option, either (a) purchase (to a maximum purchase price per year of coverage equal to 200% of the average purchase price paid by Tundra per year of coverage over the three years preceding the date hereof) prepaid non cancellable run-off directors’ and officers’ liability insurance to be in effect without any reduction in scope or coverage for not less than six years from the Effective Date providing protection no less favourable to the protection provided by the policies maintained by Tundra in favour of the directors and officers of Tundra and each of its subsidiaries which are in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date (and true and complete copies of which Tundra has provided to

 

46


 

Parent SubCo prior to the date hereof) and providing protection in respect of claims arising from facts or events which occurred prior to the Effective Time or (b) purchase (to a maximum purchase price per year of coverage equal to 200% of the average purchase price paid by Tundra per year of coverage over the three years preceding the date hereof) as an extension of Tundra’s current insurance policies (and true and complete copies of which Tundra has provided to Parent SubCo prior to the date hereof), prepaid non cancellable run-off directors’ and officers’ liability insurance providing coverage comparable to that contained in Tundra’s existing policies for six years from the Effective Time with respect to claims arising from or related to facts or events that occurred at or prior to the Effective Time, in each case provided that if comparable coverage may not be obtained at the maximum purchase price per year specified above, then the coverage shall be as comparable as possible at such price, to be determined by Parent or Parent SubCo in its sole discretion.

 

  (2) Tundra and Parent SubCo agree that all rights to indemnification or exculpation existing in favour of the directors or officers of Tundra or any subsidiary of Tundra as at the date of this Agreement as provided in Tundra’s articles or bylaws shall survive the transactions contemplated hereby and shall continue in full force and effect for a period of not less than six years from the Effective Time.

 

  (3) If Tundra or, following the Effective Time, Parent or any of their successors or assigns shall (a) amalgamate, consolidate with or merge or wind-up into any other person and, if applicable, shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity; or (b) transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person or persons, then, and in each such case, proper provisions shall be made so that the successors, assigns and transferees of Tundra or Parent SubCo, as the case may be, shall assume all of the obligations set forth in this Section 7.7.

 

  (4) The provisions of this Section 7.7 shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and are intended for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, the directors and officers of Tundra, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators and personal representatives and shall be binding on Tundra and its successors and assigns, and, for this purpose only, Tundra hereby confirms that it is acting as trustee on their behalf.

 

7.8 Cooperation Regarding Reorganization

 

  (1)

Tundra will use commercially reasonable efforts to effect, at the request of Parent SubCo, the Pre-Closing Reorganization and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Parent SubCo and Parent in structuring, planning and implementing any reorganization (including for Tax purposes) of their respective capital, assets and corporate structure or such other planning as Parent SubCo may request, acting reasonably (an “Additional Reorganization”) prior to the Effective Date, and the Plan of Arrangement, if required, shall be modified accordingly; provided, however, that the obligations of Tundra pursuant to this Section 7.8 shall be conditional on the understanding that (i) the Pre-Closing

 

47


 

Reorganization and any Additional Reorganization shall not, in the opinion of Tundra, acting reasonably, materially impede or materially delay the consummation of the Arrangement, (ii) the Pre-Closing Reorganization and any Additional Reorganization shall not, in the opinion of Tundra, acting reasonably, materially interfere with the ongoing operations of Tundra or its subsidiaries, (iii) the Pre-Closing Reorganization and any Additional Reorganization shall not require Tundra or any subsidiary to contravene any applicable Laws or their respective organizational documents or any Tundra Material Contract in any material respect, (iv) Tundra and its subsidiaries shall not be obligated to take any action that would reasonably be expected to result in any taxes being imposed on, or any adverse tax or other consequences to, any holders of Tundra Shares incrementally greater than the taxes or other consequences to such holders in connection with the consummation of the Arrangement in the absence of the Pre-Closing Reorganization and any Additional Reorganization, and (v) Tundra, its subsidiaries and their respective officers, directors and employees (to the extent employees are assessed with statutory liability thereto), shall have received an indemnity, in form and substance satisfactory to Tundra, acting reasonably, from Parent and Parent SubCo from and against any and all implementation costs, liabilities, costs, damages, claims, expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties that may be incurred as a result of or to unwind any Pre-Closing Reorganization or Additional Reorganization suffered or incurred by any of them in connection with or as a result of the Pre-Closing Reorganization and any Additional Reorganization if this Agreement is terminated other than pursuant to Section 8.1(1)(c)(A), Section 8.1(1)(c)(B) or Section 8.1(1)(d)(A), which indemnity shall survive termination of this Agreement. Any step or action taken by Tundra or its subsidiaries at the written request of Parent SubCo in furtherance of the proposed Pre-Closing Reorganization and any Additional Reorganization shall not be considered to be a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of Tundra contained in this Agreement.

 

  (2) To the extent that the Pre-Closing Reorganization and any Additional Reorganization requires approval of the holders of Tundra Shares under the CBCA, Tundra shall (i) seek approval of the holders of Tundra Shares for such Pre-Closing Reorganization and any Additional Reorganization at the Meeting, (ii) include in the Tundra Circular a form of special resolution of holders of Tundra Shares (the “Reorganization Resolution”) approving such Pre-Closing Reorganization and any Additional Reorganization in form and substance acceptable to Parent SubCo, acting reasonably, either included within the Arrangement Resolution or separate from the Arrangement Resolution if so requested by Parent SubCo, and (iii) include in the Tundra Circular the unanimous recommendation (subject to the abstention of Mr. Shlapak on account of him also being a director of Gennum) of the Tundra Board of Directors that holders of Tundra Shares vote in favour of the Reorganization Resolution, provided that Parent SubCo agrees to amend the provisions of this Agreement requiring Tundra to take certain action by specified times, including such provisions contained in Article II, to the extent necessary to facilitate the foregoing. Subject to the provisions of this Section 7.8, the provisions in this Agreement regarding Tundra’s obligations respecting the approval of the Arrangement Resolution shall apply mutatis mutandis to the approval of the Reorganization Resolution.

 

48


  (3) Tundra agrees that it shall, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries to, co-operate with Parent SubCo and Parent in good faith to plan, prepare and implement the Pre-Closing Reorganization and any Additional Reorganization as desirable and requested by Parent SubCo.

proposes or publicly states its intention to do so (it being understood that taking no position or a neutral position with respect to an Acquisition Proposal which has been publicly announced, disclosed or known beyond a period that is the lesser of three business days and four calendar days from the date of the Acquisition Proposal shall be considered a modification adverse to the consummation of the Arrangement and a Change in Recommendation), (ii) the Board of Directors fails to publicly reconfirm such recommendation upon the request of Parent SubCo within two business days following such request, (iii) the Tundra Board of Directors approves or recommends an Acquisition Proposal, (iv) Tundra enters into a written agreement in respect of an Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality and standstill agreement permitted by Section 7.2(3)), or (v) Tundra shall have publicly announced the intention to do any of the foregoing (each of clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) above, a “Change in Recommendation”) or Tundra breaches its obligations under Section 7.2; or

The Parties agree that any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provisions of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought in any court of the Province of Ontario, and each of the Parties irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent, any argument that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any Party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court.

 

9.3 Injunctive Relief and Specific Performance

The Parties agree that irreparable harm would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy at law. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement, any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief hereby being waived.

9.6 Entire Agreement, Binding Effect and Assignment

This Agreement shall be binding on and shall enure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder may be assigned by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties.

 

9.7 Severability

If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule or Law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible.

Parent and Parent SubCo appoints Tundra as the trustee for the applicable directors, officers and employees of Tundra with respect to such individuals specified in Section 7.7 and Tundra accepts such appointment. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each of Parent and Parent SubCo and Tundra agrees that the stipulations for the benefit of third persons set out in Section 7.7 shall not be revoked, and that acceptance by such third persons of such stipulations shall be deemed to have occurred, without prejudice to their right to accept in any other manner, through the fulfilment of their respective duties and functions with Tundra or its subsidiaries until the end of the business day following the execution of this Agreement, it being an essential condition of this Agreement that the persons intended to be beneficiaries of such stipulations shall be entitled to all the rights and remedies available to them thereunder and under applicable Law.

ARTICLE III

ARRANGEMENT

 

3.1 The Arrangement

Commencing at the Effective Time on the Effective Date, each of the events set out below shall occur and shall be deemed to occur in the following order and be effective at the times stated, without any further authorization, act or formality:

 

  (1) At the Effective Time, Tundra shall accelerate the vesting of each outstanding, unvested In-The-Money Tundra Option in accordance with the terms of the applicable Tundra Stock Option Plan immediately following which each In-The-Money Tundra Option that is outstanding and has not been duly exercised prior to the Effective Time, without any further action on behalf of any holder of such In-The-Money Tundra Option and without any payment except as provided in this Plan of Arrangement, and subject to (for greater certainty) applicable withholdings in accordance with Section 5.3, shall be transferred by the holder thereof to Tundra in consideration for a cash payment by Tundra equal to the product obtained by multiplying the amount by which the Consideration per Tundra Share exceeds the exercise price of such In-The-Money Tundra Option by the number of Tundra Shares underlying each such In-The-Money Tundra Option. Each In-The-Money Tundra Option issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall thereafter be immediately cancelled and the holder thereof shall thereafter have only the right to receive the consideration to which such holder is entitled pursuant to this Section 3.1(1).

 

  (2)

Five minutes following the step contemplated in Section 3.1(1), notwithstanding any contingent vesting provisions to which a Tundra RSU might otherwise have been subject, and without any further action on behalf of any holder of such Tundra RSU and without any payment except as provided in this Plan of Arrangement, Tundra shall accelerate the vesting of each outstanding, unvested

 

B-6


 

Tundra RSU in accordance with the terms of the Tundra Restricted Share Unit Plan and Tundra shall, subject to (for greater certainty) applicable withholdings in accordance with Section 5.3, deliver to each holder of a Tundra RSU outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time an amount equal to the Consideration in cash in settlement of each such Tundra RSU. Each Tundra RSU issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall thereafter be immediately cancelled and all Tundra RSU agreements related thereto shall be immediately terminated and the holder thereof shall thereafter have only the right to receive the consideration to which such holder is entitled pursuant to this Section 3.1(2). The Tundra Restricted Share Unit Plan shall be terminated and none of Tundra, Parent, Parent SubCo or any of their affiliates shall have any liabilities or obligations with respect to such plan except pursuant to this
Section 3.1(2).

 

  (3) Five minutes following the step contemplated in Section 3.1(2), each Tundra Share held by a Dissenting Shareholder immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be deemed to be transferred by the holder thereof, without any act or formality on its part, free and clear of all Liens, to Parent SubCo and Parent SubCo shall thereupon be obliged to pay the amount therefor determined and payable in accordance with Article IV hereof, and the name of such holder shall be removed from the register of holders of Tundra Shares and Parent SubCo shall be recorded as the registered holder of the Tundra Shares so transferred and shall be deemed to be the legal and beneficial owner of such Tundra Shares.

 

  (4) Five minutes following the step contemplated in Section 3.1(2), each Tundra Share (other than those held by a Dissenting Shareholder or Parent SubCo) outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be transferred by the holder thereof to Parent SubCo and each holder thereof shall be entitled to receive, in exchange therefor and subject to the provisions of Section 3.3 hereof, a cash amount equal to the Consideration, and the names of the holders of such Tundra Shares transferred to Parent SubCo shall be removed from the register of holders of Tundra Shares, and Parent SubCo shall be recorded as the registered holder of the Tundra Shares so transferred and shall be the legal and beneficial owner thereof.

 

  (5)

Five minutes following the steps contemplated in Sections 3.1(3) and (4), each Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option that is outstanding and that has not been duly exercised prior to the Effective Time, whether or not vested, without any further action on behalf of any holder of such Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option, shall be exchanged for an option (a “Replacement Option”) to purchase from Parent the number of Parent Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole number of such shares) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the Exchange Ratio by (ii) the number of Tundra Shares subject to such Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, and each holder of such exchanged Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option shall immediately become a holder of the number of Replacement Options to which such holder is entitled as a result of the exchange, and each such exchanged Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option

 

B-7


 

shall be immediately cancelled. For each Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option, such Replacement Option shall provide for an exercise price per Parent Share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) in United States dollars equal to (i) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the exercise price per Tundra Share of such Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option immediately prior to the Effective Time by (y) the Exchange Ratio, divided by (ii) the Currency Exchange Rate.

Except as otherwise set out in this section 3.1(5), each Replacement Option shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the Tundra Stock Option Plan and any stock option agreement pursuant to which such Tundra Option was granted (including, but not limited to, the term to expiry, conditions to and manner of exercising and vesting schedule), with any adjustments deemed to be made thereto as are necessary to ensure consistency with the provisions of this Section 3.1(5).

Notwithstanding the above provisions of this Section 3.1(5),

(i) with respect to any Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option, if the directors of Parent determine in good faith that the excess of the aggregate fair market value of the Parent Shares subject to the Replacement Option immediately after the issuance of the Replacement Option over the aggregate option exercise price for such shares pursuant to the Replacement Option (such excess, referred to as the “Post-Exchange Option Value”) would otherwise exceed the excess of the aggregate fair market value of the Tundra Shares subject to such Tundra Option immediately before the issuance of the Replacement Option over the aggregate option exercise price for such shares pursuant to such Tundra Option (such excess, referred to as the “Pre-Exchange Option Value”), the previous provisions in this Section 3.1(5) shall be modified, but only to the extent necessary and in a manner that does not otherwise adversely affect the holder of the Replacement Option, so that the Post-Exchange Option Value does not exceed the Pre-Exchange Option Value; and

(ii) with respect only to an Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option that is held by a resident of the United States, the exercise price and the number of Parent Shares subject to a Replacement Option shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the IRC; provided, further, that in the case of any such Out-Of-The-Money Tundra Option which was an incentive stock option (as defined in Section 422 of the IRC) immediately prior to the Effective Time, the exercise price, the number of Parent Shares and the terms and conditions of the Replacement Option shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 424(a) of the IRC.

 

3.2 Transfers Free and Clear

Any transfer of any securities pursuant to the Arrangement shall be free and clear of all Liens.

 

B-8


3.3 Adjustment to Consideration

 

  (1) Any cash consideration owing to a Tundra Shareholder, a holder of In-The-Money Tundra Options or a holder of Tundra RSUs shall be rounded up to the next whole cent.

 

  (2) If, on or after April 30, 2009, Tundra declares, sets aside or pays any dividend or other distribution payable in cash, securities, property or otherwise with respect to the Tundra Shares, or sets a record date therefor that is prior to the Effective Date, then the Consideration shall be adjusted to reflect such dividend or other distribution by way of a reduction to the Consideration by an amount equal to the value of such dividend or other distribution.

B-11


(acting reasonably) in such sum as Parent and Parent SubCo may direct, or otherwise indemnify Parent, Parent SubCo and Tundra in a manner satisfactory to Parent, Parent SubCo and Tundra, acting reasonably, against any claim that may be made against Parent, Parent SubCo or Tundra with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

  (e) Severability - If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, Parent, Parent SubCo and such applicable Stakeholder shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of Parent, Parent SubCo and such Stakeholder as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the terms of this Agreement remain as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
