The agreement among the GS Reporting Persons and the TPG Persons relating to the joint filing of this Schedule 13D is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
 
Item 3.           Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
 
On July 15, 2010, concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement (as defined in Item 4 below), Parent and Merger Sub entered into Shareholders Agreements (as defined in Item 4 below) with respect to 3,878,736 shares of Common Stock owned by the Shareholders (as defined in Item 4 below) pursuant to which the Shareholders agreed to vote their shares of Common Stock in favor of approving and adopting the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger (as defined in Item 4 below).  No shares of Common Stock were purchased by the Reporting Persons pursuant to the Shareholders Agreements and thus no funds were used by the Reporting Persons for such purpose.
 
Funds for shares of Common Stock acquired in ordinary course trading activities by Goldman Sachs or another wholly-owned broker or dealer subsidiary of GS Group and reported as beneficially owned came from the working capital of Goldman Sachs or other such subsidiary.  Funds for shares of Common Stock which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons held in client accounts with respect to which Goldman Sachs or another wholly-owned subsidiary of GS Group or their employees have investment discretion ("Managed Accounts") came from client funds.  The Reporting Persons disclaim beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock held in Managed Accounts.
 
The information set forth in response to this Item 3 is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Shareholders Agreements, copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibits 99.3 – 99.12.
 
Item 4.            Purpose of Transaction
 
The Company and two of the Reporting Persons, Parent and Merger Sub, have entered into an  Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 15, 2010 (the “Merger Agreement”), providing for the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”). At the effective time of the Merger, the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than shares owned by the Company, Parent or Merger Sub, which will be cancelled for no consideration, and shares owned by the Company’s subsidiaries, which will remain outstanding and be adjusted as appropriate to maintain each subsidiary’s relative ownership percentage in the Company) will be cancelled and con verted into the right to receive $25.75 in cash, without interest.  If the Merger is consummated as planned, the Reporting Persons anticipate that the Company will become controlled by the Reporting Persons and Parent and that the Reporting Persons will seek to cause the Common Stock to be de-registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and to cease to be traded or quoted on any over-the-counter network.
 
Upon consummation of the Merger, the directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Merger and the officers of the Company immediately prior to the Merger shall in each case be the directors and officers of the surviving corporation until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified or their death, resignation or removal in accordance with the articles of incorporation and by-laws of the surviving corporation.
 
The consummation of the Merger is subject to various conditions, including, but not limited to, (i) obtaining the approval of Company shareholders, (ii) expiration or termination of the applicable Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act waiting period, (iii) receipt of insurance regulatory approvals and (iv) the Company having a minimum tangible book value of at least $205,000,000. The Merger Agreement may be terminated by the Company or the Parent under certain circumstances.  For additional details on these rights of termination, reference is made to the Merger Agreement.
 
As an inducement for Parent and Merger Sub to enter into the Merger Agreement with the Company, Mark W. Blackman, Paul J. Hart, Thomas J. Iacopelli, A. George Kallop and Elizabeth B. Kallop, George R. Trumbull, III, Conning Capital Partners VI, L.P. (“Conning Capital Partners”), Lionshead Investments, LLC, Estate of Louise B. Tollefson, Louise B. Tollefson 2000 Florida Intangible Tax Trust and Louise B. Tollefson Family Foundation, shareholders of the Company (together, the “Shareholders”) holding 3,878,736 shares of the Common Stock, or approximately 44.1% of the total issued and outstanding Common Stock in the aggregate as of July 15, 2010, e ach entered into a separate shareholders agreement (together, the “Shareholders Agreements”) with Parent and Merger Sub.

The Shareholders have agreed to vote (i) in favor of (A) the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and (B) approval of any proposal to adjourn or postpone any meeting of the shareholders of the Company to a later date if there are not sufficient votes for adoption and approval of the foregoing on the date on which such meeting is held, (ii) against any action or agreement (or amendment to any agreement) that would result in a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or other obligation of the Company in the Merger Agreement, (iii) against any inquiry, proposal or offer from any third party relating to, in a single transaction or series of related transactions, any (A) acquisition of assets of the Company and its subsidiaries (includ ing securities of subsidiaries) equal to 20% or more of the Company’s consolidated assets or to which 20% or more of the Company’s revenues or earnings on a consolidated basis are attributable, (B) acquisition of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Section 13 under the Exchange Act) of 20% or more of any class of equity securities of the Company, (C) tender offer or exchange offer that if consummated would result in any person (or “group,” as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act) beneficially owning 20% or more of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company or (D) merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or similar transaction involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries; in each case, other than the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, and (iv) against any agreement (or amendment to any agreement), amendment of the articles of incorporation or by-laws of the Company or other action that i s intended or could reasonably be expected to prevent, impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or discourage the consummation of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. Pursuant to the Shareholders Agreement, the Shareholders granted Parent a proxy to vote the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Shareholders in the matter described in the immediately preceding sentence.
 
The Shareholders Agreements will terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) the effective time of the Merger, (ii) April 15, 2011, (iii) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms and (iv) the effectiveness of any amendment, modification, supplement to, or waiver under, the Merger Agreement which would reduce the amount or change the form or composition of the Merger Consideration payable.

The Reporting Persons are not paying any additional compensation to the Shareholders in connection with the execution and delivery of the Shareholders Agreements.
 
The information set forth in response to this Item 4, including the foregoing summary of certain provisions of the Merger Agreement and the Shareholders Agreement, is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement and the Shareholders Agreements, copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibit 99.2 and Exhibits 99.3 – 99.12 hereto, respectively, and are hereby incorporated herein by reference.
 
Item 5.            Interest in Securities of the Issuer
 
The information set forth or incorporated in Items 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
 
 
(a) and (b): The following disclosure assumes that there are 8,799,513 shares of Common Stock outstanding, which includes 8,499,513 shares of Common Stock that the Company represented in the Merger Agreement was the number of outstanding shares as of July 14, 2010, in addition to 300,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of options held by Conning Capital Partners.  The following disclosure further assumes that the Shareholders beneficially own 3,878,736 shares, which is the total number of shares of Common Stock that the Shareholders represented in the Shareholders Agreements they beneficially owned in total as of July 15, 2010, including the options held by Conning Capital Partners, which may be exercised prior to the closing of the Merger.  As a result of the Shareholders Agreements, the Reporting Persons may be deemed for the purposes of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exch ange Act to beneficially own 3,878,736 shares of Common Stock, representing, for the purposes of Rule 13d-3, approximately 44.1% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.  Except to the extent the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have beneficial ownership as a result of such Shareholders Agreements, the Reporting Persons disclaim any beneficial ownership of such shares, and nothing herein shall be deemed to be an admission by the Reporting Persons as to the beneficial ownership of such shares.
 
As of July 15, 2010, each of GS Group and Goldman Sachs may be deemed to have beneficially owned an aggregate of 18,565 shares of Common Stock, including (i) 17,565 shares of Common Stock acquired by Goldman Sachs or another wholly-owned broker or dealer subsidiary of GS Group in ordinary course trading activities and (ii) 1,000 shares of Common Stock held in Managed Accounts, representing in the aggregate approximately 0.02% of the shares of Common Stock reported to be outstanding as represented in the Merger Agreement.  GS Group and Goldman Sachs each disclaim beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock held in Managed Accounts.
 
 
Page 24 of 58

 

Except for the 18,565 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned directly by Goldman Sachs and which may be deemed beneficially owned indirectly by GS Group, and to the extent that they may be deemed to have any such power by virtue of the Shareholders Agreements, the Reporting Persons do not have sole power to vote or direct the vote, shared power to vote or direct the vote, or the sole or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition of any of the shares of Common Stock.  The Reporting Persons may be deemed in certain circumstances, as more fully described in Item 4, to have the shared power of the Shareholders to vote 3,878,736 shares of Common Stock.  However, the Reporting Persons are not entitled to any rights as a shareholder of the Company as to the shares of Common Stock that are the subject of the S hareholders Agreements. Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that (i) the TPG Reporting Persons or any of their respective affiliates are the beneficial owners of any shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the GS Reporting Persons or (ii) the GS Reporting Persons or any of their respective affiliates are the beneficial owners of any shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the TPG Reporting Persons, in each case for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or for any other purpose.
 
Except as set forth in this Item 5, none of the Reporting Persons beneficially owns any shares of Common Stock.
 
In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Release No. 34-395538 (January 12, 1998) (the “Release”), this filing reflects the securities beneficially owned by certain operating units (collectively, the “Goldman Sachs Reporting Units”) of GS Group and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “GSG”).  This filing does not reflect securities, if any, beneficially owned by any operating units of GSG whose ownership of securities is disaggregated from that of the Goldman Sachs Reporting Units in accordance with the Release.  The Goldman Sachs Reporting Units disclaim beneficial ownership of the securities beneficially owned by (i) any client accounts with respect to which the Goldman Sachs Reporting Units or their employees have voting or investment discretion, or bot h, and (ii) certain investment entities of which the Goldman Sachs Reporting Units acts as the general partner, managing general partner or other manager, to the extent interests in such entities are held by persons other than the Goldman Sachs Reporting Units.
 
 
(c):  Except for the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement and the Shareholders Agreements, or, in the case of the GS Reporting Persons only, as set forth on Schedule V hereto, (i) none of the GS Reporting Persons nor, to the best knowledge of each of the GS Reporting Persons, without independent verification, any of the persons listed on Schedule I – II hereto, has effected any transaction in the shares of Common Stock during the past 60 days and (ii) none of the TPG Reporting Persons nor, to the best knowledge of each of the TPG Reporting Persons, without independent verification, any of the persons listed on Schedule III hereto, has effected any transaction in the shares of Common Stock during the past 60 days.
 
 
(d):  The TPG Reporting Persons do not know of any other person who has the power to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, any shares of Common Stock. Except for clients of Goldman Sachs who may have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of any shares of Common Stock held in Managed Accounts, no other person is known by the GS Reporting Persons to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, any shares of Common Stock.
 
 
(e):  Not applicable.
 
Item 6.            Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
 
Except for the Merger Agreement and Shareholders Agreements described above, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise), including, but not limited to, transfer or voting of any securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees or profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies among the persons named in Item 2 or between such persons and any other person, with respect to any securities of the Company, including any securities pledged or otherwise subject to a contingency the occurrence of which would give another person voting power or investment power over such securities other than standard default and similar pr ovisions contained in loan agreements.  In addition, Goldman Sachs has a short position equivalent to 60,866 shares of Common Stock.

SCHEDULE IV

In May 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) alleged that fourteen investment banking firms, including Goldman, Sachs & Co. (“Goldman Sachs”), violated Section 17(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, by engaging in one or more practices relating to auctions of auction rate securities during the period from January 1, 2003 through June 30, 2004 as described in the cease-and-desist order entered by the SEC. Goldman Sachs has agreed to provide certain disclosures about its material auction practices and procedures to auction participants and to certify to the SEC that it has implemented certain procedures relating to the auction process. As part of a multi-firm settlement, Goldman Sachs submitted an Offer of Settlement which was accepted by the SEC on May 31, 2006. Without admitting or denying the a llegations, Goldman Sachs consented to a censure and cease-and-desist order and payment of $1,500,000
civil money penalty.

On July 15, 2010, Goldman Sachs agreed with the SEC to settle the SEC’s pending case against Goldman Sachs relating to disclosures in the ABACUS 2007-AC1 CDO offering. Goldman Sachs consented to the entry of a final judgment by the court, which has approved the settlement, providing for the payment of penalties and disgorgement totaling $550 million, Goldman Sachs’s implementation of certain remedial measures focused on offerings of mortgage-related securities and an injunction against violating Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 in the offer or sale of any security. The conduct of Goldman Sachs alleged in the SEC’s complaint involved an offering of a synthetic collateralized debt obligation, which referenced a portfolio of synthetic residential mortgage-backed securities, by Goldman Sachs or its affiliates to q ualified institutional buyers in reliance on the exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 provided by Rule 144A and to non-U.S. persons in reliance on the safe harbor from registration provided by Regulation S. Specifically, the complaint alleged that the offering materials, in describing the Portfolio Selection Agent for the portfolio of synthetic residential mortgage-backed securities, should have disclosed that the hedge fund assuming the short side of the transaction had played a role in the selection process. In its consent to the judgment, Goldman Sachs acknowledged that it was a mistake not to disclose the role of the hedge fund.

EXECUTION COPY

SHAREHOLDERS AGREEMENT

SHAREHOLDERS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of July 15, 2010, by and among ProSight Specialty Insurance Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), PSI Merger Sub Inc., a New York corporation (“Merger Sub”) and the Shareholders set forth on Schedule A (collectively, the “Shareholders”).  Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Merger Agreement (as defined below).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, NYMAGIC, Inc., a New York corporation (the “Company”), Parent and Merger Sub are entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger of even date herewith (a copy of which is attached hereto the “Merger Agreement”);

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, each Shareholder is the record and beneficial owner of, and has the right to vote and dispose of, the number of Company Shares (such shares, together with any other Company Shares acquired by the Shareholders after the date hereof, whether acquired directly or indirectly, upon the exercise of options, conversion of convertible securities or otherwise, collectively, the “Shareholder Shares”) set forth next to such Shareholder’s name on Schedule A; and

WHEREAS, as a condition to their willingness to enter into the Merger Agreement, Parent and Merger Sub have required that the Shareholders enter into this Agreement and, in order to induce Parent and Merger Sub to enter into the Merger Agreement, the Shareholders are willing to enter into this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

Section 1.1             Agreements of the Shareholders.

(a)            Voting.  From the date hereof until any termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, at any meeting of the Shareholders of the Company however called (or any action by written consent in lieu of a meeting) or any adjournment thereof, each Shareholder shall vote its Shareholder Shares (or cause them to be voted) or (as appropriate) execute written consents in respect thereof, (i) in favor of (A) the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the Transactions and (B) approval of any proposal to adjourn or postpone such meeting to a later date if there are not sufficient votes for adoption and approval of the foregoing on the date on whi ch such meeting is held, (ii) against any action or agreement (including any amendment of any agreement) that would result in a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or other obligation of the Company in the Merger Agreement, (iii) against any Takeover Proposal or any other proposal made, directly or indirectly, in opposition to adoption of the Merger Agreement or otherwise inconsistent with the Transactions and (iv) against any agreement (including any amendment of any agreement), amendment of the Company Charter Documents or other action that is intended or could reasonably be expected to prevent, impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or discourage the consummation of the Transactions.  Any such vote shall be cast (or consent shall be given) by the Shareholders in accordance with such procedures relating thereto so as to ensure that it is duly counted, including for purposes of determining that a quorum is present and for purposes of recording the results of such vote (or consent) (to the fullest extent that such Shareholder Shares may be counted for quorum purposes under applicable Law). Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Shareholders shall remain free to vote such Shareholder Shares with respect to any matter not covered by this Section 1(a).

 
 

 

(b)           Proxy.  In furtherance of the Shareholders’ agreement in Section 1(a), the Shareholders hereby appoint Parent and Parent’s designees, and each of them individually, as the Shareholders’ proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution), for and in the name, place and stead of the Shareholders, to vote all Shareholder Shares (at any meeting of Shareholders of the Company however called or any adjournment thereof), or to execute one or more written consents in respect of the Shareholder Shares, (i) in favor of (A) the adoption of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the Transactions and (B) approval of any proposal to adjourn or postpone such meeting to a later date if there are not sufficient votes for adoption and approval of the foregoing on the date on which such meeting is held, (ii) against any action or agreement (including any amendment of any agreement) that would result in a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or other obligation of the Company in the Merger Agreement, (iii) against any Takeover Proposal or any other proposal made in opposition to adoption of the Merger Agreement or otherwise inconsistent with the Transactions and (iv) against any agreement (including any amendment of any agreement), amendment of the Company Charter Documents or other action that is intended or could reasonably be expected to prevent, impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or discourage the consummation of the Merger.  Such proxy shall be valid and irrevocable until the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 4.  Each Shareholder represents that any and all other proxies heretofore given in respect of Shareholder Shares are revocable, and that such other proxies have been revoked.  Each Shareholder affirms that the foregoing proxy is: (i) given (A) in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement and (B) to secure the performance of such Shareholder’s duties under this Agreement, (ii) coupled with an interest and may not be revoked except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and (iii) intended to be irrevocable prior to termination of this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of the NYBCL.  All authority herein conferred shall survive the death or incapacity of each Shareholder and shall be binding upon the heirs, estate, administrators, personal representatives, successors and assigns of each Shareholder.

(c)           Appraisal Rights.  Each Shareholder hereby waives, and agrees not to exercise or assert, any appraisal or similar rights in connection with the Transactions.

(d)           Restriction on Transfer; Proxies; Non-Interference; etc.  From the date hereof until any termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Shareholders shall not, directly or indirectly (i) except as set forth on Schedule 1(d) hereto sell, transfer, give, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise dispose of, or enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or understanding with respect to the sale, transfer, gift, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or other disposition of, any Shareholder Shares (or any right, title or interest thereto or therein), (ii) deposit any Shareholder Share s into a voting trust or grant any proxies or enter into a voting agreement, power of attorney or voting trust with respect to any Shareholder Shares, (iii) take any action that would make any representation or warranty of the Shareholders set forth in this Agreement untrue or incorrect in any material respect or have the effect of preventing, disabling or delaying any Shareholder from performing any of its obligations under this Agreement or (iv) agree (whether or not in writing) to take any of the actions referred to in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of this Section 1(d).

 
2

 

(e)           No Solicitation.  Each Shareholder agrees that, except as permitted by Section 5.2 of the Merger Agreement, such Shareholder shall not, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, knowingly facilitate or knowingly encourage (including by way of furnishing non-public information) the making of, or any inquiries regarding, a Takeover Proposal or (ii) engage in, continue or otherwise participate in any discussions or negotiations with any third party regarding a Takeover Proposal or any inquiry or proposal that would reasonably be expected to lead to a Takeover Proposal.  Each Shareholder shall a s promptly as reasonably practicable advise the Company in writing, and in no event later than twenty four (24) hours after receipt, if any proposal, offer or inquiry is received by, any information is requested from, or any discussions or negotiations are sought to be initiated or continued with, such Shareholder in respect of a Takeover Proposal or potential Takeover Proposal, and shall, in such notice to  the Company, indicate the identity of the Person or group of Persons making such proposal, offer, inquiry or request and the material terms and conditions of such proposal or offer and the nature of such inquiry or request (and shall include with such notice copies of any draft agreements and financing commitment letters).

(g)           Publication.  Each Shareholder (i) consents to Parent and Merger Sub publishing and disclosing each Shareholder’s identity and ownership of Company Common Stock and the nature of each Shareholder’s commitments, arrangements and understandings under this Agreement, in each case, that Parent reasonably determines is required to be disclosed under applicable Law in any press release, the Proxy Statement (including all schedules and documents filed with the SEC) or any other disclosure document in connection with the Merger and any other Transactions and (ii) agrees to give promptly to Parent any information Parent may reasonably require for the preparation of any such disclosure documents.  Each Sharehold er agrees to promptly notify the Company of any required corrections with respect to any information supplied by such Shareholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and to the extent that any such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect.  The Shareholders shall not issue any press release or make any other public statement with respect to this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or the Transactions without the prior written consent of Parent, except as may be required by applicable Law.

(g)            Publication.  Each Shareholder (i) consents to Parent and Merger Sub publishing and disclosing each Shareholder’s identity and ownership of Company Common Stock and the nature of each Shareholder’s commitments, arrangements and understandings under this Agreement, in each case, that Parent reasonably determines is required to be disclosed under applicable Law in any press release, the Proxy Statement (including all schedules and documents filed with the SEC) or any other disclosure document in connection with the Merger and any other Transactions and (ii) agrees to give promptly to Parent any information Parent may reasonably require for the preparation of any such disclosure documents.  Each Shareholder agrees to promptly notify the Com pany of any required corrections with respect to any information supplied by such Shareholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and to the extent that any such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect.  The Shareholders shall not issue any press release or make any other public statement with respect to this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or the Transactions without the prior written consent of Parent, except as may be required by applicable Law.

(g)            Publication.  Each Shareholder (i) consents to Parent and Merger Sub publishing and disclosing each Shareholder’s identity and ownership of Company Common Stock and the nature of each Shareholder’s commitments, arrangements and understandings under this Agreement, in each case, that Parent reasonably determines is required to be disclosed under applicable Law in any press release, the Proxy Statement (including all schedules and documents filed with the SEC) or any other disclosure document in connection with the Merger and any other Transactions and (ii) agrees to give promptly to Parent any information Parent may reasonably require for the preparation of any such disclosure documents.  Each Shareholder agrees to promptly notify the Com pany of any required corrections with respect to any information supplied by such Shareholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and to the extent that any such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect.  The Shareholders shall not issue any press release or make any other public statement with respect to this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or the Transactions without the prior written consent of Parent, except as may be required by applicable Law.

(g)            Publication.  Each Shareholder (i) consents to Parent and Merger Sub publishing and disclosing each Shareholder’s identity and ownership of Company Common Stock and the nature of each Shareholder’s commitments, arrangements and understandings under this Agreement, in each case, that Parent reasonably determines is required to be disclosed under applicable Law in any press release, the Proxy Statement (including all schedules and documents filed with the SEC) or any other disclosure document in connection with the Merger and any other Transactions and (ii) agrees to give promptly to Parent any information Parent may reasonably require for the preparation of any such disclosure documents.  Each Shareholder agrees to promptly notify the Com pany of any required corrections with respect to any information supplied by such Shareholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and to the extent that any such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect.  The Shareholders shall not issue any press release or make any other public statement with respect to this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or the Transactions without the prior written consent of Parent, except as may be required by applicable Law.

(g)            Publication.  Each Shareholder (i) consents to Parent and Merger Sub publishing and disclosing each Shareholder’s identity and ownership of Company Common Stock and the nature of each Shareholder’s commitments, arrangements and understandings under this Agreement, in each case, that Parent reasonably determines is required to be disclosed under applicable Law in any press release, the Proxy Statement (including all schedules and documents filed with the SEC) or any other disclosure document in connection with the Merger and any other Transactions and (ii) agrees to give promptly to Parent any information Parent may reasonably require for the preparation of any such disclosure documents.  Each Shareholder agrees to promptly notify the Com pany of any required corrections with respect to any information supplied by such Shareholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and to the extent that any such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect.  The Shareholders shall not issue any press release or make any other public statement with respect to this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or the Transactions without the prior written consent of Parent, except as may be required by applicable Law.

(g)            Publication.  Each Shareholder (i) consents to Parent and Merger Sub publishing and disclosing each Shareholder’s identity and ownership of Company Common Stock and the nature of each Shareholder’s commitments, arrangements and understandings under this Agreement, in each case, that Parent reasonably determines is required to be disclosed under applicable Law in any press release, the Proxy Statement (including all schedules and documents filed with the SEC) or any other disclosure document in connection with the Merger and any other Transactions and (ii) agrees to give promptly to Parent any information Parent may reasonably require for the preparation of any such disclosure documents.  Each Shareholder agrees to promptly notify the Com pany of any required corrections with respect to any information supplied by such Shareholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and to the extent that any such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect.  The Shareholders shall not issue any press release or make any other public statement with respect to this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or the Transactions without the prior written consent of Parent, except as may be required by applicable Law.

(ii)            The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as jointly drafted by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

(g)            Publication.  Each Shareholder (i) consents to Parent and Merger Sub publishing and disclosing each Shareholder’s identity and ownership of Company Common Stock and the nature of each Shareholder’s commitments, arrangements and understandings under this Agreement, in each case, that Parent reasonably determines is required to be disclosed under applicable Law in any press release, the Proxy Statement (including all schedules and documents filed with the SEC) or any other disclosure document in connection with the Merger and any other Transactions and (ii) agrees to give promptly to Parent any information Parent may reasonably require for the preparation of any such disclosure documents.  Each Shareholder agrees to promptly notify the Com pany of any required corrections with respect to any information supplied by such Shareholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and to the extent that any such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect.  The Shareholders shall not issue any press release or make any other public statement with respect to this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or the Transactions without the prior written consent of Parent, except as may be required by applicable Law.

(g)            Publication.  Each Shareholder (i) consents to Parent and Merger Sub publishing and disclosing each Shareholder’s identity and ownership of Company Common Stock and the nature of each Shareholder’s commitments, arrangements and understandings under this Agreement, in each case, that Parent reasonably determines is required to be disclosed under applicable Law in any press release, the Proxy Statement (including all schedules and documents filed with the SEC) or any other disclosure document in connection with the Merger and any other Transactions and (ii) agrees to give promptly to Parent any information Parent may reasonably require for the preparation of any such disclosure documents.  Each Shareholder agrees to promptly notify the Com pany of any required corrections with respect to any information supplied by such Shareholder specifically for use in any such disclosure document, if and to the extent that any such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect.  The Shareholders shall not issue any press release or make any other public statement with respect to this Agreement, the Merger Agreement or the Transactions without the prior written consent of Parent, except as may be required by applicable Law.

(m)           Severability.  If any term or other provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect.  Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

(n)            Interpretation.

(i)             Any reference to any national, state, local or foreign Law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context otherwise required.  When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section or Schedule, such reference shall be to a Section of or Schedule to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.  The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.  Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”  The words “hereof ,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement.  The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if.”  The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term.  Any agreement, instrument or statute defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such agreement, instrument or statute as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of agreements or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes and refere nces to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein.  References to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns.  In this Agreement, the Shareholder of any Company Shares held in trust shall be deemed to be the relevant trust and/or the trustees thereof acting in their capacities as such trustees, in each case as the context may require to be most protective of Parent, including for purposes of such trustees’ representations and warranties as to the proper organization of the trust, their power and authority as trustees and the non-contravention of the trust’s governing instruments.
