    A statutory merger is a ___________ of two ___________ in which one of them ceases to exist. If rendered as an equation, a statutory merger might be expressed like this: Company X+ Company Y+=__________.
    A subsidiary merger occurs when the target company ( the company that _____________) becomes a ___________ of the acquiring company. If Company X purchases Company Y, then we will have: Company X+ Company Y= (Company X+ Company Y).
