6.3 Boston Private Shareholder Approval. (a) <omitted> However, subject to Section 8.1 and Section 8.2, if the Board of Directors of Boston Private, after receiving the advice of its outside counsel and, with respect to financial matters, its financial advisors, determines in good faith that it would more likely than not result in a violation of its fiduciary duties under applicable law to continue to recommend this Agreement, then in submitting this Agreement to its shareholders, the Board of Directors of Boston Private may submit this Agreement to its shareholders without recommendation (although the resolutions approving this Agreement as of the date hereof may not be rescinded or amended), in which event the Board of Directors of Boston Private may communicate the basis for its lack of a recommendation to its shareholders in the Proxy Statement or an appropriate amendment or supplement thereto to the extent required by law; provided, that the Board of Directors of Boston Private may not take any actions under this sentence unless (i) Boston Private shall have complied in all material respects with Section 6.9; (ii) if such actions are taken in response to an unsolicited bona fide Acquisition Proposal, the Boston Private Board of Directors shall have concluded in good faith, after giving effect to all the adjustments which may be offered by SVB Financial pursuant to clause (iv) below, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal; (iii) Boston Private shall notify SVB Financial, at least four (4) business days in advance, of the intention of the Boston Private Board of Directors to change its recommendation (including, in the event such change in recommendation is in response to an Acquisition Proposal, the identity of the party making such Acquisition Proposal and furnish to SVB Financial all the material terms and conditions of such proposal to the extent not previously provided pursuant to Section 6.9, or describe in reasonable detail such other event or circumstances if such change in recommendation is not in response to an Acquisition Proposal); and (iv) prior to effecting a change in the recommendation of the Boston Private Board of Directors, Boston Private shall, and shall cause its financial and legal advisors to, during the period following Boston Private’s delivery of the notice referred to in clause (iii) above, negotiate with SVB Financial in good faith for a period of up to four (4) business days (to the extent SVB Financial desires to negotiate) to allow SVB Financial to propose such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that an Acquisition Proposal referred to in clause (ii) above ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal or so that it would no longer more likely than not result in a violation of the Boston Private Board of Directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable law to continue to recommend this Agreement.  Any material amendment to any Acquisition Proposal will be deemed to be a new Acquisition Proposal for purposes of this Section 6.3 and will require a new notice period as referred to in this Section 6.3.
