Following the Effective Time, each certificate (a “ Certificate ”) representing any of the Shares and non-certificated Shares deposited at the CIK (the “ CIK Shares ”) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Conversion Shares and any dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 4.02(b).

 

(b)

[Intentionally Omitted] .

(c)        Merger Sub . At the Effective Time, all of the ordinary shares, par value NIS 0.1 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable ordinary share, par value NIS 0.1 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(d)        MediVision . At the Effective Time, all Shares shall be owned by OIS and will be registered in its name in the shareholders registry of MediVision after presentation of the Shares to a credit institution which is empowered to exchange such Shares for the Merger Consideration.

 

Section 4.02

Prior to the Effective Time, OIS shall, after consultation with MediVision, appoint a bank or trust company that maintains offices in Israel and the United States and Belgium to act as conversion agent (the “ Conversion Agent ”) for providing the Conversion Shares following the Effective Time upon surrender of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 4.02(g)) or CIK Shares. Prior to or as soon as practicable after the Effective Time, OIS shall deposit or shall cause to be deposited, with the Conversion Agent, for the benefit of the holders of Shares, (i) certificates representing

 

5

 


 

the aggregate number of shares of OIS Common Stock to be issued in the Merger; and (ii) such cash in an amount sufficient for payment of any dividends and distributions to which holders of Shares may be entitled (such cash and certificates for shares of OIS Common Stock being hereinafter referred to as the “ Conversion Fund ”). Following the Effective Time, subject to surrender of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 4.02(g)) or the CIK Shares, the Conversion Agent shall deliver the Conversion Shares and cash in an amount sufficient for payment of any dividends or distributions contemplated to be paid in respect of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement, out of the Conversion Fund. Conversion of any CIK Shares shall be effected in accordance with OIS’s customary procedures with respect to securities represented by book entry. Except as contemplated in this Agreement, the Conversion Fund shall not be used for any other purpose.

(B)      The holder of each Certificate, upon the surrender of such Certificate by such holder to the Conversion Agent (or the delivery of the affidavit and bond, if any, specified in Section 4.02(g)), together with a Letter of Transmittal duly completed and validly executed by such holder in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Conversion Agent, shall, subject to Section 4.02(e) be entitled to receive in exchange for such Certificate a certificate representing the number of shares of OIS Common Stock for which the Shares theretofore represented by such Certificate may be converted pursuant to Section 4.01, and such surrendered Certificate shall forthwith thereafter be cancelled and retired.

(C)      Each Certificate shall be deemed at all times from and after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive, upon conversion as contemplated in this Section 4.02, the Conversion Shares to which the holder of the Shares formerly represented by such Certificate is entitled to receive in the Merger.

(c)        Distributions with Respect to Unconverted Shares . All shares of OIS Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Merger shall be deemed issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time and, whenever a dividend or other distribution is declared by OIS in respect of the OIS Common Stock, the record date for which is at or after the Effective Time, that declaration shall include dividends or other distributions in respect of all shares of OIS Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Agreement. No dividends or other distributions in respect of the OIS Common Stock shall be paid to any holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or CIK Share until such Certificate (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 4.02(g)) or CIK Share is surrendered for conversion in accordance with this Article IV. Subject to the effect of applicable Laws, following surrender of any such Certificate (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof

MediVision shall provide, as requested by OIS or the Conversion Agent, copies (or originals) of all withholding documentation and related information that may be necessary to determine whether any payment is subject to withholding and to calculate the proper amount (if any) required to be withheld with respect to any payment to any Holder contemplated under this Agreement. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by OIS or any party on OIS’s behalf, such withheld amounts (i) shall be remitted by the party who withheld such amounts to the applicable Governmental Entity when and as lawfully required and (ii) shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of Shares in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by OIS.

(i)         Uncertificated MediVision Shares . OIS shall cause the Conversion Agent to (i) issue in registered form, as of the Effective Time, to each holder of CIK Shares, that number of whole shares of OIS Common Stock that such holder is entitled to receive in respect of each such CIK Share pursuant to this Article IV and (ii) mail to each such holder the Letter of Transmittal and such other materials to be reasonably agreed by OIS and MediVision prior to the Effective Time advising such holder of the effectiveness of the Merger and the conversion of such holder’s Shares into the Conversion Shares pursuant to the Merger and a check (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings) for any cash in payment of any dividend or other distribution in respect of such CIK Shares, in each case without any action by such holders.

Section 4.04

Treatment of Stock Options and Warrants .

(a)        Stock Options . At the Effective Time, each outstanding option to purchase Shares (a “ MediVision Option ”) under the Option Plans (as defined in Section 5.01(b)(i)(A)), whether or not exercisable and whether or not vested, shall be assumed by OIS such that it is converted into an option (a “ Replacement Option ”) to purchase a number of shares of OIS Common Stock equal to the number of Shares underlying such MediVision Option multiplied by the Conversion Ratio, at an exercise price per share of Common Stock equal to the exercise price per Share of such MediVision Option as in effect immediately prior to the Closing divided by the Conversion Ratio and with such other terms and conditions as were applicable to such MediVision Option (including any repurchase rights or vesting provisions); provided, that OIS shall use its reasonable efforts to effect the conversion in such a manner that the Replacement Options shall have the same tax attributes as the MediVision Options; provided, however, that (i) the exercise price and the number of shares of OIS Common Stock purchasable pursuant to the Replacement Options shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Sections 409A, 422 and 424(a) of the Code, as applicable; (ii) for the purposes of converting option exercise prices, euros will be converted into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the close of business on the trading date prior to the date of this Agreement; and (iii) the Replacement Options will be issued pursuant to the terms of the OIS Option Plans. For purposes of this Section 4.04(a), OIS shall be considered to have used its "reasonable efforts" to effect the conversion of the MediVision Options so that the Replacement Options have the same tax attributes as the MediVision Options in the following circumstances: (i) if the Options Tax Ruling is not issued prior to the Effective Date, OIS issues “ Nonqualified Stock Options ,” meaning options which do not qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code (“ ISOs ”), for all of the Replacement Options; and (ii) if the Options Tax Ruling is issued prior to the Effective Date, (A) for the MediVision Options with favorable tax treatment under Israeli tax law as described in Section 6.12(c)(i) (“ Favorable MV Options ”), OIS coordinates the issuance of such Replacement Options with the Options Tax Ruling so that ISOs may be issued to the extent such conversion is permitted and consistent with Sections 422 and 424(a) of the Code, and (B) for the non-Favorable MV Options, OIS issues Nonqualified Stock Options for such Replacement Options.

(b)        Warrants . At the Effective Time, each outstanding warrant or other right (other than the MediVision Options) to purchase Shares (a “ MediVision Right ”) shall be assumed by OIS such that it is converted into a warrant or other right of corresponding nature (a “ Replacement Right ”) to purchase a number of shares of OIS Common Stock equal to the number of Shares underlying such MediVision Right multiplied by the Conversion Ratio, at an exercise price per share of common stock equal to the exercise price per Share of such MediVision Right as in effect immediately prior to the Closing divided by the Conversion Ratio and with such other terms and conditions as were applicable to such MediVision Right

(including any repurchase rights or vesting provisions); provided, however, that (i) the exercise price and the number of shares of OIS Common Stock purchasable pursuant to the Replacement Rights shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, as applicable; (ii) in the case of any MediVision Rightto which Section 422 of the Code applies, the exercise price and the number of shares of OIS Common Stock purchasable pursuant to the Replacement Rights shall be determined in accordance with the foregoing, subject to such adjustments as are necessary to satisfy the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code; (iii) for the purposes of converting warrant exercise prices, euros will be converted into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the close of business on the trading date prior to the date of this Agreement; and (iv) to the extent the provisions of any MediVision Right are inconsistent with this Section 4.04(b), the provisions of such MediVision Right shall be controlling; and (v) the Replacement Rights will be issued pursuant to the terms of the existing warrant.
