(a) the good does not qualify as an originating good; or
(b) the importer, exporter or producer fails to comply with any of the relevant requirements of this Chapter.
No Preferential Rights (i) No person, as such term is defined in Rule 1-02 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act (each, a “Person”), has the right, contractual or otherwise, to cause the Company to issue or sell to such Person any Common Stock or shares of any other capital stock or other securities of the Company (other than upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase Common Stock or upon the exercise of options that may be granted from time to time under the Company’s stock option plan), (ii) no Person has any preemptive rights, rights of first refusal, or any other rights (whether pursuant to a “poison pill” provision or otherwise) to purchase any Common Stock or shares of any other capital stock or other securities of the Company from the Company which have not been duly waived with respect to the offering contemplated hereby, (iii) no Person has the right to act as an underwriter or as a financial advisor to the Company in connection with the offer and sale of the Common Stock, and (iv) no Person has the right, contractual or otherwise, to require the Company to register under the Securities Act any Common Stock or shares of any other capital stock or other securities of the Company, or to include any such shares or other securities in the Registration Statement or the offering contemplated thereby, whether as a result of the filing or effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the sale of the Placement Shares as contemplated thereby or otherwise, except in each case for such rights as have been waived on or prior to the date hereof.
Preferential Rights SM Energy shall, within 10 days after the Execution Date, send to each holder of a Preferential Right a notice requesting the election or waiver by each such holder of its applicable Preferential Right, in each case in compliance with the contractual provisions applicable to such Preferential Right, requesting a waiver of such right. Any Preferential Right must be exercised subject to all terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, including the successful closing of this Agreement pursuant to Article XI. The consideration payable under this Agreement for any particular Asset for purposes of Preferential Right notices shall be the Allocated Value of such Asset.
(i) All Assets burdened by Preferential Rights for which (A) the applicable Preferential Right has been waived, or (B) the period to exercise such Preferential Right has expired prior to the Closing without the applicable holder of such Preferential Right electing to enforce its Preferential Right, shall, in each case, be assigned to Buyer at the Closing pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.
(ii) If, prior to the Closing (A) any holder of a Preferential Right notifies SM Energy that it intends to consummate the purchase of the portion of the Assets to which its Preferential Right applies or (B) the time for exercising a Preferential Right has not expired and the holder of such Preferential Right has not waived such Preferential Right, then, in each case, such portion of the Assets affected by such Preferential Right shall be excluded from the Assets to be conveyed to Buyer at Closing and the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Allocated Value of such excluded portion of the Assets. SM Energy shall be entitled to all proceeds paid by a Person exercising a Preferential Right prior to the Closing. If, after Closing (1) such holder of such Preferential Right thereafter fails to consummate the purchase of the portion of the Assets covered by such Preferential Right or (2) the time for exercising such Preferential Right expires without exercise by the holder thereof, then SM Energy shall (x) so notify Buyer and (y) on or before 10 days following delivery of such notice, assign such portion of the Assets to Buyer pursuant to an assignment in substantially the form of the Assignment and the Purchase Price shall be increased by an amount equal to the Allocated Value of the such portion of the Assets.
Treatment of Warrant at Acquisition A) Upon the written request of the Company, Holder agrees that, in the event of an Acquisition in which the sole consideration is cash, either (a) Holder shall exercise its conversion or purchase right under this Warrant and such exercise will be deemed effective immediately prior to the consummation of such Acquisition or (b) if Holder elects not to exercise the Warrant, this Warrant will expire upon the consummation of such Acquisition. The Company shall provide the Holder with written notice of its request relating to the foregoing (together with such reasonable information as the Holder may request in connection with such contemplated Acquisition giving rise to such notice), which is to be delivered to Holder not less than ten (10) days prior to the closing of the proposed Acquisition.
B) Upon the written request of the Company, Holder agrees that, in the event of an Acquisition that is an “arms length” sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets (and only its assets) to a third party that is not an Affiliate (as defined below) of the Company (a “True Asset Sale”), either (a) Holder shall exercise its conversion or purchase right under this Warrant and such exercise will be deemed effective immediately prior to the consummation of such Acquisition or (b) if Holder elects not to exercise the Warrant, this Warrant will continue until the Expiration Date if the Company continues as a going concern following the closing of any such True Asset Sale. The Company shall provide the Holder with written notice of its request relating to the foregoing (together with such reasonable information as the Holder may request in connection with such contemplated Acquisition giving rise to such notice), which is to be delivered to Holder not less than ten (10) days prior to the closing of the proposed Acquisition.
C) Upon the closing of any Acquisition other than those particularly described in subsections (A) and (B) above, the successor entity shall assume the obligations of this Warrant, and this Warrant shall be exercisable for the same securities, cash, and property as would be payable for the Shares issuable upon exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant as if such Shares were outstanding on the record date for the Acquisition and subsequent closing. The Warrant Price and/or number of Shares shall be adjusted accordingly.

CFR PART 200 Domestic Preferences for Procurements As appropriate and to the extent consistent with law, the non-Federal entity should, to the greatest extent practicable under a Federal award, provide a preference for the purchase, acquisition, or use of goods, products, or materials produced in the United States (including but not limited to iron, aluminum, steel, cement, and other manufactured products). The requirements of this section must be included in all subawards including all contracts and purchase orders for work or products under this award. For purposes of 2 CFR Part 200.322, “Produced in the United States” means, for iron and steel products, that all manufacturing processes, from the initial melting stag through the application of coatings, occurred in the United States. Moreover, for purposes of 2 CFR Part 200.322, “Manufactured products” means items and construction materials composed in whole or in part of non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, plastics and polymer-based products such as polyvinyl chloride pipe, aggregates such as concrete, class, including optical fiber, and lumber. Pursuant to the above, when federal funds are expended by ESC Region 8 and TIPS Members, Vendor certifies that to the greatest extent practicable Vendor will provide a preference for the purchase, acquisition, or use of goods, products, or materials produced in the United States (including but not limited to iron, aluminum, steel, cement, and other manufactured products).
