Limitation on Exercise Notwithstanding the provisions of this Warrant, the Agreement or of the other Transaction Agreements, in no event (except (i) as specifically provided in this Warrant as an exception to this provision, (ii) during the forty-five (45) day period prior to the Expiration Date, or (iii) while there is outstanding a tender offer for any or all of the shares of the Company's Common Stock) shall the Holder be entitled to exercise this Warrant, or shall the Company have the obligation to issue shares upon such exercise of all or any portion of this Warrant to the extent that, after such exercise the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unexercised portion of the Warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or through the ownership of the unconverted portion of convertible securities), and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (after taking into account the shares to be issued to the Holder upon such exercise). For purposes of the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), except as otherwise provided in clause (1) of such sentence. The Holder, by its acceptance of this Warrant, further agrees that if the Holder transfers or assigns any of the Warrants to a party who or which would not be considered such an affiliate, such assignment shall be made subject to the transferee's or assignee's specific agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Section 2.2 as if such transferee or assignee were the original Holder hereof.
Limitations on Exercise of Option Notwithstanding the foregoing Subsections, in no event may the Option be exercised, in whole or in part, after ten years following the Original Date of Grant, or after the occurrence of an event which results in termination of the Option under the Plan.
Restriction on Exercise This Option may not be exercised unless such exercise is in compliance with the Securities Act, and all applicable state securities laws, as they are in effect on the date of exercise, and the requirements of any stock exchange or national market system on which the Company's Common Stock may be listed at the time of exercise. Optionee understands that the Company is under no obligation to register, qualify or list the Shares with the SEC, any state securities commission or any stock exchange or national market system to effect such compliance.
Period of Option and Limitations on Right to Exercise The Option will, to the extent not previously exercised, lapse under the earliest of the following circumstances; provided, however, that the Committee may, prior to the lapse of the Option under the circumstances described in paragraph (b) below, provide in writing that the Option will extend until a later date:
Manner of Exercise of Option (a) To the extent that the right to exercise the Option has accrued and is in effect, the Option may be exercised in full or in part by giving written notice to the Company stating the number of Shares as to which the Option is being exercised and accompanied by payment in full for such Shares. No partial exercise may be made for less than one hundred (100) full Shares of Common Stock. Payment shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Upon such exercise, delivery of a certificate for paid-up, non- assessable Shares shall be made at the principal office of the Company to the person exercising the Option, not less than thirty (30) and not more than ninety (90) days from the date of receipt of the notice by the Company.
Term and Exercise of Option (a) The term of this Option shall commence on the Grant Date set forth above and shall continue until the Expiration Date set forth above, unless earlier terminated as provided herein.
Number of Shares Issuable upon Exercise From and after the Issue Date through and including the Expiration Date, the Holder hereof shall be entitled to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant in whole in accordance with the terms of subsection 1.2 or upon exercise of this Warrant in part in accordance with subsection 1.3, shares of Common Stock of the Company, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4.
Initial Exercise Price; Exercise of Rights; Detachment of Rights (a) Subject to adjustment as herein set forth, each Right will entitle the holder thereof, after the Separation Time, to purchase, for the Exercise Price, or its U.S. Dollar Equivalent as at the Business Day immediately preceding the day of exercise of the Right, one Common Share. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any Rights held by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries shall be void.
Limitations on Exercise Neither the Warrant Agent nor the Company shall effect any exercise of any Warrant, and no Holder shall have the right to exercise any portion of a Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock after exercise as set forth on the applicable Election to Purchase, such Holder (together with such Holder’s Affiliates (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act), and any other persons acting as a group together with such Holder or any of such Holder’s Affiliates), would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the Company’s Common Stock. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by a Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of any Warrant beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 6, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by each Holder that neither the Warrant Agent nor the Company is representing to such Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and such Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 6 applies, the determination of whether a Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by a Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of a Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of a Holder, and the submission of an Election to Purchase shall be deemed to be such Holder’s determination of whether such Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by such Holder together with any Affiliates) and of which portion of a Warrant is exercisable, and neither the Warrant Agent nor the Company shall have any obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination and neither of them shall have any liability for any error made by such Holder. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 6, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. The provisions of this Section 6 shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 6 to correct this subsection (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor Holder.
Manner of Option Exercise This Option may be exercised by Xxxxx in whole or in part from time to time, subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, by delivery, in person, by facsimile or electronic transmission or through the mail, to Xxxxxx at his principal executive office, of a written Notice of Exercise, with a copy to RDO at its principal executive office. Such notice will identify this Option, will specify the number of Option Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised, and will be signed by the person so exercising the Option. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the total purchase price of the Option Shares purchased. In the event that the Option is being exercised by any person or persons other than Xxxxx, the Notice will be accompanied by appropriate proof of right of such person or persons to exercise the Option. As soon as practicable after the effective exercise of the Option, Xxxxxx will deliver to the person exercising this Option one or more duly issued stock certificates evidencing such ownership, together with an assignment separate from the certificate duly endorsed by him evidencing the transfer of the Option Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised. Upon receipt of the foregoing, RDO will deliver to the transferee one or more duly issued stock certificates bearing such transfer restrictions as may then be appropriate based upon advice of RDO's legal counsel.
