5.1. Company Board Recommendation. <omitted> (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to the receipt of the Company Required Vote: (i) if the Company has received a written Qualifying Acquisition Proposal (which Acquisition Proposal did not arise out of a breach of Section 4.3 (other than an unintentional and immaterial breach)) from any Person that has not been withdrawn and after consultation with outside legal counsel, the Company Board shall have determined, in good faith, that such Acquisition Proposal is a Superior Offer, prior to receipt of the Company Required Vote (A) the Company Board may make a Company Adverse Change Recommendation or (B) the Company may terminate this Agreement to enter into a Specified Agreement with respect to such Superior Offer in accordance with Section 7.1(h), if and only if: (1) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that the failure to do so would be reasonably likely to result in a violation of the fiduciary duties of the Company Board to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Legal Requirements; (2) the Company shall have given Parent prior written notice of its intention to consider making a Company Adverse Change Recommendation or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(h) at least four business days prior to making any such Company Adverse Change Recommendation or termination (a “Determination Notice”) (which notice shall not, in and of itself, constitute a Company Adverse Change Recommendation if the Company Board publicly reaffirms the Company Board Recommendation and Company Board Determination no later than the day immediately following the expiration of the negotiation period described in this clause (i)); and (3) (x) the Company shall have provided to Parent a summary of the material terms and conditions of the Acquisition Proposal and provided to Parent the latest drafts of the definitive agreement to effect such Superior Offer, any financing commitments or other agreements to be entered into in connection with such Superior Offer, (y) the Company shall have given Parent four business days after the Determination Notice to propose revisions to the terms of this Agreement or make another proposal and shall have made its Representatives reasonably available to negotiate in good faith with Parent (to the extent Parent requests to negotiate) with respect to such proposed revisions or other proposal, if any, and (z) after considering the results of any such negotiations and giving effect to the proposals made by Parent, if any, after consultation with outside legal counsel and financial advisors, the Company Board shall have determined, in good faith, that such Acquisition   40


Proposal is a Superior Offer and that the failure to make the Company Adverse Change Recommendation or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.1(h) would be reasonably likely to result in a violation of the fiduciary duties of the Company Board to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Legal Requirements. Issuance of any “stop, look and listen” communication by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) shall not, in and of itself, be considered a Company Adverse Change Recommendation and shall not require the giving of a Determination Notice or compliance with the procedures set forth in this Section 5.1 to the extent that any such communication expressly reaffirms the Company Board Recommendation. The provisions of this Section 5.1(b)(i) shall also apply to any amendment to any of the economic terms of the Acquisition Proposal or any other material amendments to the terms of any Acquisition Proposal and require a new Determination Notice, except that the references to four business days shall be deemed to be three business days, during which time the Company and its Representatives shall continue to comply with clause (3) above; and (ii) other than in connection with an Acquisition Proposal, the Company Board may make a Company Adverse Change Recommendation in response to a Change in Circumstance, if and only if: (A) the Company Board determines in good faith, after consultation with the Company’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors, that the failure to do so would be reasonably likely to result in a violation of the fiduciary duties of the Company Board to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Legal Requirements; (B) the Company shall have given Parent a Determination Notice at least four business days prior to making any such Company Adverse Change Recommendation; and (C) (1) the Company shall have specified the Change in Circumstance in reasonable detail, (2) the Company shall have given Parent the four business days after the Determination Notice to propose revisions to the terms of this Agreement or make another proposal so that such Change in Circumstances would no longer necessitate a Company Adverse Change Recommendation, and shall have made its Representatives reasonably available to negotiate in good faith with Parent (to the extent Parent requests to do so) with respect to such proposed revisions or other proposal, if any, and (3) after considering the results of any such negotiations and giving effect to the proposals made by Parent, if any, after consultation with outside legal counsel and financial advisors, the Company Board shall have determined, in good faith, that the failure to make the Company Adverse Change Recommendation in response to such Change in Circumstance would be reasonably likely to result in a violation of the fiduciary duties of the Company Board to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Legal Requirements. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 5.1(b)(ii) shall also apply to any material change to the facts and circumstances relating to such Change in Circumstance shall require a new Determination Notice, except that the references to four business days shall be deemed to be three business days, during which time the Company and its Representatives shall continue to comply with clause (3) above mutatis mutandis.
