Change In Control. Change in Control means the occurrence of one or more of the following events: (a) Any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires ownership of stock of H&R Block that, together with stock held by such person or group, constitutes more than 50 percent of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of H&R Block. If any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, is considered to own more than 50 percent of the total fair market value or total... voting power of the stock of H&R Block, the acquisition of additional stock by the same person or persons shall not be considered to cause a Change in Control. An increase in the percentage of stock owned by any one person, or persons acting as a group, as a result of a transaction in which H&R Block acquires its stock in exchange for property will be treated as an acquisition of stock for purposes of this Section 5.4(a). (b) Any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires (when combined with all other acquisitions of H&R Block stock acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) ownership of stock of H&R Block possessing 35 percent or more of the total voting power of the stock of H&R Block. If any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, is considered to effectively control a corporation within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.409A-3(i)(5)(vi), the acquisition of additional control of the corporation by the same person or persons is not considered to cause a change in the effective control of the corporation. An increase in the percentage of stock owned by any one person, or persons acting as a group, as a result of a transaction in which H&R Block acquires its stock in exchange for property will not be treated as an acquisition of stock for purposes of this Section 5.4(b), but will be treated as an acquisition of stock for purposes of Section 5.4(a). (c) A majority of members of the Board is replaced during any 12-month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by two-thirds (2/3) of the members of the Board before the date of such appointment or election. (d) Any one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires (when combined with all other acquisitions of H&R Block assets acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) assets from H&R Block that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than 50 percent of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of H&R Block immediately before such acquisition or acquisitions. For this purpose, gross fair market value means the value of the assets of H&R Block, or the value of the assets being disposed of, determined without regard to any liabilities associated with such assets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there is no Change in Control event under this Section 5.4(d) when there is a transfer to an entity that is controlled by the shareholders of H&R Block immediately after the transfer. A transfer of assets by H&R Block is not treated as a change in the ownership of such assets if the assets are transferred to: (i) a shareholder of H&R Block (immediately before the asset transfer) solely in exchange for or with respect to its stock; (ii) an entity, 50 percent or more of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by H&R Block; (iii) a person, or more than one person acting as a group, that owns, directly or indirectly, 50 percent or more of the total value or voting power of all the outstanding stock of H&R Block; or (iv) an entity, at least 50 percent of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by a person described in (iii) above. For purposes of this section, persons will be considered to be acting as a group in accordance with Sections 13(d)(3) and 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Code Section 409A.View More

Change In Control. Shall be deemed to have occurred if (a) the Company determines that any "person" (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act), other than a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or a corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of the Company, has become the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the... Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of twenty (20%) percent or more of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company (provided, however, that a Change in Control shall not be deemed to have occurred if such person has become the beneficial owner of twenty (20%) percent or more of the outstanding Common Stock as the result of a sale of Common Stock by the Company that has been approved by the Board of Directors); (b) individuals who are "Continuing Directors" (as defined below) cease to constitute a majority of the Board of Directors; (c) there occurs a reorganization, merger, consolidation or other corporate transaction involving the Company (a "Corporate Transaction"), in each case, with respect to which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction do not, immediately after the Corporate Transaction, own fifty (50%) percent or more of the combined voting power of the corporation resulting from such Corporate Transaction; or (d) the stockholders of the Company approve a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company. "Continuing Director" for purposes of the above means (i) any member of the Board of Directors who was such a member on the date on which this Plan was approved by the Committee and any successor to such a Continuing Director who is approved as a nominee or elected to succeed a Continuing Director by a majority of Continuing Directors who are then members of the Board of Directors and (ii) any new member who is nominated or elected to become a director of the Board of Directors by a majority of Continuing Directors who are then members of the Board of Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change in Control constitutes a payment event with respect to any Stock Incentive (or any portion of an Stock Incentive) that provides for the deferral of compensation that is subject to Section 409A, to the extent required to avoid the imposition of additional taxes under Section 409A, the transaction or event described in subsection (a), (b), (c) or (d) with respect to such Stock Incentive (or portion thereof) shall only constitute a Change in Control for purposes of the payment timing of such Stock Incentive if such transaction also constitutes a "change in control event," as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5). The Committee shall have full and final authority, which shall be exercised in its sole discretion, to determine conclusively whether a Change in Control has occurred pursuant to the above definition, the date of the occurrence of such Change in Control and any incidental matters relating thereto; provided that any exercise of authority in conjunction with a determination of whether a Change in Control is a "change in control event" as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) shall be consistent with such regulation.View More

Change In Control. The occurrence of any of the following events: (i) A change in the ownership of Elastic B.V. which occurs on the date that any one person, or more than one person acting as a group ("Person"), acquires ownership of the stock of Elastic B.V. that, together with the stock held by such Person, constitutes more than 50% of the total voting power of the stock of Elastic B.V.; provided, however, that for purposes of this subsection, (A) the acquisition of additional stock by any one Person, who is... considered to own more than 50% of the total voting power of the stock of Elastic B.V. will not be considered a Change in Control, and (B) if the stockholders of Elastic B.V. immediately before such change in ownership continue to retain immediately after the change in ownership, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of shares of Elastic B.V.'s voting stock immediately prior to the change in ownership, the direct or indirect beneficial ownership of 50% or more of the total voting power of the stock of Elastic B.V. or of the ultimate parent entity of Elastic B.V., such event will not be considered a Change in Control under this subsection (i). For this purpose, indirect beneficial ownership will include, without limitation, an interest resulting from ownership of the voting securities of one or more corporations or other business entities which own Elastic B.V., as the case may be, either directly or through one or more subsidiary corporations or other business entities; or (ii) A change in the effective control of Elastic B.V. which occurs on the date that a majority of members of the Board is replaced during any 12 month period by members of the Board whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of the Board prior to the date of the appointment or election. For purposes of this subsection (ii), if any Person is considered to be in effective control of Elastic B.V., the acquisition of additional control of Elastic B.V. by the same Person will not be considered a Change in Control; or (iii) A change in the ownership of a substantial portion of Elastic B.V.'s assets which occurs on the date that any Person acquires (or has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such person or persons) assets from Elastic B.V. that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than 50% of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of Elastic B.V. immediately prior to such acquisition or acquisitions; provided, however, that for purposes of this subsection (iii), the following will not constitute a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of Elastic B.V.'s assets: (A) a transfer to an entity that is controlled by Elastic B.V.'s stockholders immediately after the transfer, or (B) a transfer of assets by Elastic B.V. to: (1) a stockholder of Elastic B.V. (immediately before the asset transfer) in exchange for or with respect to Elastic B.V.'s stock, (2) an entity, 50% or more of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by Elastic B.V., (3) a Person, that owns, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the total value or voting power of all the outstanding stock of Elastic B.V., or (4) an entity, at least 50% of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by a Person described in this subsection (iii)(B)(3). For purposes of this subsection (iii), gross fair market value means the value of the assets of Elastic B.V., or the value of the assets being disposed of, determined without regard to any liabilities associated with such assets. For purposes of this definition, persons will be considered to be acting as a group if they are owners of a corporation that enters into a merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of stock, or similar capital reorganization or business combination transaction with Elastic B.V.. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed a Change in Control unless the transaction qualifies as a change in control event within the meaning of Section 409A. Further and for the avoidance of doubt, a transaction will not constitute a Change in Control if: (i) its sole purpose is to change the jurisdiction of Elastic B.V.'s incorporation, (ii) its sole purpose is to create a holding company that will be owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held Elastic B.V.'s securities immediately before such transaction, or (iii) its sole purpose is to effect a private financing of Elastic B.V. through a change in the ownership of the stock of Elastic B.V. that is approved by the Board.View More
