with the State of Delaware. The Merger shall have the effect
set forth in the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

holding the office with the Surviving Corporation that he or she
held with AMI immediately prior to the Effective Time.
(e)
Conversion of Securities . At and as
of the Effective Time, the AMI Shares shall be converted into the
right to receive ATC Shares (for each Shareholder a fractional
share resulting from conversion of its aggregate holdings will be
rounded up to the nearest whole share) which ATC Shares will be
issued to the Shareholders on a basis of 1.1 ATC Shares for each
AMI Share held (the “ Merger Consideration ”).
No AMI securities shall be deemed to be outstanding or to

Section 2 at and after the Effective Time.
(f)

powers, franchises and authority, of a public as well as of a
private nature, of AMI and ATC Sub; all property of every
description and every interest therein, and all debts and other

or in any way be impaired by reason of this merger; and all of the
rights of creditors of AMI and ATC Sub shall be preserved
unimpaired, and all liens upon the property of AMI and ATC Sub
shall be preserved unimpaired, and all debts, liabilities,
obligations and duties of the respective corporations shall

extent as if all of said debts, liabilities, obligations and duties
had been incurred or contracted by it.
2.3
Procedure for Exchange of Shares.

effecting the surrender of such AMI Shares in exchange for the
Merger Consideration; (iii) an accredited investor certificate in
the form attached as Schedule 7 to this Agreement; and (iv) a lock

hereto. The ATC Shares to be issued to the Shareholders shall be,
as of the Effective Time, fully paid and non-assessable and shall
be issued by the ATC upon ATC’s receipt of the respective
Shareholder’s duly executed Transmittal Documents pursuant to
a safe harbor from the prospectus and registration requirements of

endorsed with restrictive legends substantially in the same form as
the following legend pursuant to the 1933 Act, in order to reflect
the fact that these are restricted securities and will be issued to

an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the
registration requirements of the 1933 Act and in each case only in
accordance with all Applicable Securities Legislation.

AMI Shares shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the
making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such
certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by
ATC, the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable amount
as ATC may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made
against it with respect to such certificate, ATC will deliver in
exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate the
applicable Merger Consideration with respect to the shares of AMI
Common Stock formerly represented thereby.

Effective Time, the officers and directors of the Surviving
Corporation will be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name
and on behalf of ATC, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or
assurances and to take and do, in the name and on behalf of ATC,
any other actions and things to vest, perfect or confirm of record
