(“Merger Sub”), dated as of October 9, 2015 (the “Merger Agreement”), whereby, at the effective time of the transactions contemplated therein (the “Effective Time”), Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company, and each ordinary share of the Company, no par value, will be converted into the right to receive $7.10 in cash, without interest, (the “Ordinary Share Merger Consideration”) with the Company surviving the merger as an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of DSV (collectively referred to herein as the “Merger”) with the Merger constituting a Merger Event under the Original Indenture;
WHEREAS, the Company has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture;
WHEREAS, Section 14.07 of the Original Indenture provides that in the event of a Merger Event, then prior to or at the effective time of such Merger Event the Company shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture permitted under Section 10.01(h) of the Original Indenture;
WHEREAS, the Company has furnished the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel complying with the requirements of Article 10 of the Original Indenture, stating that the execution of this Supplemental Indenture is permitted or authorized by the Original Indenture, and that this Supplemental Indenture is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms;
