the transfer of rights and obligations of the merging companies to their legal successor


Explanation:
the transfer of rights and obligations of the merging companies <company 1> and <company 2> to their legal successor <company 2>.

I am not sure I know which company diese is referring to..


entered into their rights an obligations -
Agreement and Plan of Conversion and Termination to effect conversion of each portfolio of a Massachusetts Business Trust (Portfolio) into a series of a Delaware Business Trust (Successor Portfolio) of same name Each such conversion will involve transfer by a Portfolio to a corresponding Successor Portfolio of all assets of such Portfolio in exchange for assumption by such Successor Portfolio of all liabilities of such Portfolio and issuance of shares of beneficial interest in such Successor Portfolio, followed by constructive distribution of such Successor Portfolio Shares to holders of shares of beneficial interest in such Portfolio.

Conversion - while not specifically relevant, so well worded that I am adding it here.
Agreement of Merger for (a) merger of (i) unrelated company ("Acquiring Company") into corporation (in which event corporation would survive merger and Acquiring Company would cease to exist), or (ii) corporation into Acquiring Company (in which event Acquiring Company would survive merger and corporation would cease to exist), or (iii) corporation into subsidiary of Acquiring Company that was organized for purpose of merger (in which event subsidiary would survive merger and corporation would cease to exist)...

The determination of form of merger will be made by corporation and Acquiring Company ("Constituent Companies") based upon (x) corporation's ability to obtain from Securities and Exchange Commission an exemption from certain provisions of Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 and (y) determination by Constituent Companies as to whether it is desirable to effect merger in manner to assure that it qualifies as reorganization under Section 368 of Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (See Page 12-1384JF)

Agreement of Merger for conversion of two corporations into wholly owned subsidiaries of new corporation ("Holding Company") by merger of one of such corporations with subsidiary of Holding Company and merger of other corporation with different subsidiary of Holding Company .

Agreement of Merger for merger of corporation ("Disappearing Company") with wholly-owned subsidiary of unrelated company ("Acquiring Company") and conversion of common stock held by Disappearing Company stockholders into right to receive payment for their shares in three phases as follows: (a) on effective date, Disappearing Company stockholders will receive cash, Acquiring Company stock or combination of cash and Acquiring Company stock (as they elect) in amount equal to $13.8167 per share of Disappearing Company stock, (b) on Payment date they will receive supplemental payment of cash and/or Acquiring Company stock equal to $8.374 per share of Disappearing Company stock plus accrued interest on such amount for period from effective date through Payment date, plus (or minus) amount by which Disappearing Company's book value per share increases (or decreases) from stated date through effective date...
