An Offer may occur even where one or more Shareholders choose not to participate in the Offer (the “Withholding”); the Withholding must be approved in writing;
 
  
An Offer Statement containing the details of the proposed sale must be submitted to the other Shareholders in the same form as set out in Schedule B of the Shareholders Agreement; in the event of a Withholding, an amended Offer Statement must be submitted to the Shareholders;
 
  
There will be a 5 calendar day period to accept or reject the Offer Statement;

The Shareholders’ Agreement will cease and terminate if the Company is dissolved, liquidated or formerly wound up; all the Shareholders agree in writing to terminate; or all of the Shares are released pursuant to the provisions of the Shareholders’ Agreement;
 
  
No termination of the Agreement shall affect the right of any party to whom is owed money at the time of termination; and,
