Section 6.02     Company No Solicitation.  <omitted> (d)    Company Superior Proposal or Company Acquisition Agreement.  Except as expressly permitted by this Section 6.02, the Company Board shall not effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change or enter into (or permit any of its Subsidiaries to enter into) a Company Acquisition Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to the receipt of the Requisite Company Vote, the Company Board may effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change or enter into (or permit any Subsidiary to enter into) a Company Acquisition Agreement only if (i) the Company Board determines in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisor of national reputation that a given Company Takeover Proposal constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal and that failure to effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in response to such actual or potential Company Superior Proposal would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties owed by the Company Board to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law, (ii) the Company promptly notifies Parent, in writing, at least three (3) Business Days (the “Company Superior Proposal Notice Period”) before making a Company Adverse Recommendation Change with respect to a Company Superior Proposal or entering into (or causing one of its Subsidiaries to enter into) a Company Acquisition Agreement, of its intention to take such action with respect to a Company Superior Proposal, which notice shall state expressly that the Company has received a Company Takeover Proposal that the Company Board (or a committee thereof) intends to declare a Company Superior Proposal and that it intends to effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change and/or the Company intends to enter into a Company Acquisition Agreement in connection with such Company Superior Proposal (it being understood that the delivery and receipt of any such notice shall not, in and of itself, be a Company Adverse Recommendation Change), (iii) the Company specifies the identity of the party making the Company Superior Proposal and the material terms and conditions thereof in such notice and includes an unredacted copy of the Company Takeover Proposal and attaches to such notice the most current version of any proposed agreement (which version shall be updated on a prompt basis) and any related documents, including financing documents, to the extent provided by the relevant party in connection with, and containing material terms of, the Company Superior Proposal, (iv) the Company shall, and shall cause its Representatives to, during the Company Superior Proposal Notice Period, negotiate with Parent in good faith to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Company Takeover Proposal ceases to constitute a Company Superior Proposal, if Parent, in its discretion, proposes to make such adjustments (it being understood and agreed that in the event that, after commencement of the Company Superior Proposal Notice Period, there is any material revision to the terms of a Company Superior Proposal, including, any revision in price or financing, the Company Superior Proposal Notice Period shall be extended, if applicable, to ensure that at least two (2) Business Days remains in the Company Superior Proposal Notice Period subsequent to the time the Company notifies Parent of any such material revision (it being understood that there may be multiple extensions)), and (v) at the conclusion of the Company Superior Proposal Notice Period, the Company Board (or a committee thereof) determines in good faith, after consulting with outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that such Company Takeover Proposal continues to constitute a Company Superior Proposal after taking into account any adjustments made by Parent during the Company Superior Proposal Notice Period in the terms and conditions of this Agreement or otherwise and that the failure to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with the Company directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, at any time prior to the receipt of the Requisite Company Vote, upon the occurrence of a Company Intervening Event, the Company Board may effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change only if all of the following conditions are satisfied: 

(i)      the Company Board determines in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisor of national reputation that a Company Intervening Event has occurred and that failure to effect a Company Adverse Recommendation Change in response to such Company Intervening Event would be inconsistent with the fiduciary duties owed by the Company Board to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law;

(ii)      the Company (A) promptly notifies Parent, in writing, at least three (3) Business Days (the “Company Intervening Event Notice Period”) before making a Company Adverse Recommendation Change with respect to a Company Intervening Event of its intention to take such action, which notice shall describe in reasonable detail the Company Intervening Event (it being understood that the delivery and receipt of any such notice shall not, in and of itself, be deemed to be a Company Adverse Recommendation Change) and (B) prior to making such a Company Adverse Recommendation Change, to the extent requested in writing by Parent, engages in good faith negotiations with Parent during such three (3) Business Day period to amend this Agreement in such a manner that the failure of the Company Board to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change with respect to such Company Intervening Event would no longer be, in the good faith determination of the Company Board in consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisor of national reputation, inconsistent with the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law (it being understood that, if after commencement of the Company Intervening Event Notice Period, there is any material change to the circumstances giving rise to the Company Intervening Event that was previously the subject of a notice hereunder, a new notice to Parent shall be required as provided above; provided, that with respect to each such material change, each reference in this clause (ii) to a “three (3) Business Day” period shall be changed to refer to a “two (2) Business day” period); and 

(iii)      at the conclusion of the Company Intervening Event Notice Period, the Company Board (or a committee thereof) shall have determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel and financial advisor of national reputation, that in light of such Company Intervening Event and taking into account any revised terms proposed by Parent, the failure to make a Company Adverse Recommendation Change would be inconsistent with the Company directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law.
