====Commentary====
In summary, this breaks down into:
*'''Transfer''': an irrevocable commitment to transfer all the {{eqderivprov|Shares}} to another entity;
*'''Merger''': merger or binding share exchange of the Issuer with or into another entity where the other entity survives;
*'''100% Takeover offer''': takeover or tender offer for 100% of outstanding {{eqderivprov|Shares}} by any entity;
*'''Reverse Merger''': merger binding share exchange of the Issuer with or into another entity where the Issuer survives but represents less than 50% of the resulting entity;
Where the {{eqderivprov|Merger Date}} is before the final settlement date.
 
Note that, by contrast, the "{{eqderivprov|Tender Offer}}" {{eqderivprov|Extraordinary Event}} is triggered by greater than 10% but less than 100% of the outstanding voting shares of the {{eqderivprov|Issuer}}. So the two do not in fact overlap.
 
See with respect to {{eqderivprov|Merger Events}}:
*{{eqderivprov|Calculation Agent Adjustment}};
*{{eqderivprov|Modified Calculation Agent Adjustment}}.
