(ii)A sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets is consummated, other than such a sale or disposition that would not have constituted a Change of Control under clause (iv) below had it been structured as a merger or consolidation. (iii)The shareholders of the Company approve a definitive agreement or plan to liquidate the Company. (iv)A merger or consolidation of the Company with and into another entity is consummated, unless immediately following such transaction (1) more than 50% of the members of the governing body of the surviving entity were Incumbent Directors (as defined in clause (v) below) at the time of execution of the initial agreement providing for such transaction, (2) no "Person" (as defined in clause (i) above), together with its "affiliates" and "associates" (as defined in clause(i) above), is the "Beneficial Owner" (as defined in clause (i) above), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the then-outstanding equity interests of the surviving entity or the combined voting power of the then-outstanding equity interests of the surviving entity entitled to vote generally in the election of members of its governing body, and (3) more than 50% of the then-outstanding equity 11 interests of the surviving entity and the combined voting power of the then-outstanding equity interests of the surviving entity entitled to vote generally in the election of members of its governing body is "Beneficially Owned", directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the "Beneficial Owners" of the shares of common stock of the Company immediately prior to such transaction in substantially the same proportions as their ownership immediately prior to such transaction. (v)During any period of 24 consecutive months during the Employment Term, the individuals who, at the beginning of such period, constitute the Board (the "Incumbent Directors") cease for any reason other than death to constitute at least a majority thereof; provided, however, that a director who was not a director at the beginning of such 24 month period shall be deemed to have satisfied such 24 month requirement, and be an Incumbent Director, if such director was elected by, or on the recommendation of or with the approval of, at least two-thirds of the directors who then qualified as Incumbent Directors either actually, because they were directors at the beginning of such 24 month period, or by prior operation of this clause (v), but excluding for this purpose any such individual whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election context subject to Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Act or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a "Person" (as defined in clause(i) above) other than the Board. (vi)The sale, transfer or other disposition of a substantial portion of the stock or assets of the Company, or of a Business Unit or a similar transaction as the Board, in each case, in its sole discretion, may determine to be a Change in Control; provided, however, that the term "Change in Control" shall not include (i) a transaction the sole purpose of which is to change the state of the Company's incorporation; or (ii) the initial public offering of the stock of a Business Unit of the Company, and any subsequent sell down of the stock of the Business Unit by the Company.
