Adjustment Upon Issuance of Shares of Common Stock If and whenever on or after the date hereof, the Company issues or sells, or in accordance with this Section 3 is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock (including the issuance or sale of shares of Common Stock owned or held by or for the account of the Company, but excluding any Exempt Issuance issued or sold or deemed to have been issued or sold) for a consideration per share (the “New Issuance Price”) less than a price equal to the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale or deemed issuance or sale (such Exercise Price then in effect is referred to as the “Applicable Price”) (the foregoing a “Dilutive Issuance”), then immediately after such Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be reduced to the New Issuance Price. For all purposes of the foregoing (including, without limitation, determining the adjusted Exercise Price and consideration per share under this Section 3(e)), the following shall be applicable:
Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares upon Issuance of Common Stock Except as otherwise provided in Paragraphs 4(c) and 4(e) hereof, if and whenever on or after the date of issuance of this Warrant, the Company issues or sells, or in accordance with Paragraph 4(b) hereof is deemed to have issued or sold, any shares of Common Stock for no consideration or for a consideration per share (before deduction of reasonable expenses or commissions or underwriting discounts or allowances in connection therewith) less than the Market Price on the date of issuance (a "Dilutive Issuance"), then immediately upon the Dilutive Issuance, the Exercise Price will be reduced to a price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is an amount equal to the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock actually outstanding immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance, plus (y) the quotient of the aggregate consideration, calculated as set forth in Paragraph 4(b) hereof, received by the Company upon such Dilutive Issuance divided by the Market Price in effect immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance, and (ii) the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock Deemed Outstanding (as defined below) immediately after the Dilutive Issuance.
Issuance of Shares of Common Stock Unless a Termination Event, an Early Settlement or a Fundamental Change Early Settlement shall have occurred, subject to Section 5.05(b), on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date upon receipt of the aggregate Purchase Price payable on all Outstanding Units in accordance with Section 5.03 above, the Company shall issue and deposit with the Purchase Contract Agent, for the benefit of the Holders of the Outstanding Units, one or more certificates representing newly issued shares of Common Stock registered in the name of the Purchase Contract Agent (or its nominee) as custodian for the Holders (such certificates for shares of Common Stock, together with any dividends or distributions for which a record date and payment date for such dividend or distribution has occurred after the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, being hereinafter referred to as the “Purchase Contract Settlement Fund”) to which the Holders are entitled hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, upon surrender of a Certificate to the Purchase Contract Agent on or after the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, Early Settlement Date or Fundamental Change Early Settlement Date, as the case may be, together with settlement instructions thereon duly completed and executed, the Holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive forthwith in exchange therefor a certificate representing that number of newly issued whole shares of Common Stock which such Holder is entitled to receive pursuant to the provisions of this Article 5 (after taking into account all Units then held by such Holder), together with cash in lieu of fractional shares as provided in Section 5.09 and any dividends or distributions with respect to such shares constituting part of the Purchase Contract Settlement Fund, but without any interest thereon, and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. Such shares shall be registered in the name of the Holder or the Holder’s designee as specified in the settlement instructions provided by the Holder to the Purchase Contract Agent. If any shares of Common Stock issued in respect of a Purchase Contract are to be registered in the name of a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate evidencing such Purchase Contract is registered (but excluding any Depositary or nominee thereof), no such registration shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such registration has paid any transfer and other taxes (including any applicable stamp taxes) required by reason of such registration in a name other than that of the registered Holder of the Certificate evidencing such Purchase Contract or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax either has been paid or is not payable.
Issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock (i) In the event the Issuer shall at any time following the Original Issue Date issue any Additional Shares of Common Stock (otherwise than as provided in the foregoing subsections (a) through (c) of this Section 4), at a price per share less than the Warrant Price then in effect or without consideration, then the Warrant Price upon each such issuance shall be adjusted to that price determined by multiplying the Warrant Price then in effect by a fraction:
(A) the numerator of which shall be equal to the sum of (x) the number of shares of Outstanding Common Stock immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock plus (y) the number of shares of Common Stock (rounded to the nearest whole share) which the aggregate consideration for the total number of such Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued would purchase at a price per share equal to the Warrant Price then in effect, and
(B) the denominator of which shall be equal to the number of shares of Outstanding Common Stock immediately after the issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock.
(ii) No adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant shall be exercisable shall be made under paragraph (i) of Section 4(d) upon the issuance of any Additional Shares of Common Stock which are issued pursuant to the exercise of any Common Stock Equivalents, if any such adjustment shall previously have been made upon the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents (or upon the issuance of any warrant or other rights therefor) pursuant to Section 4(e).
Issuance of Shares of Common Stock on Exercise As soon as practicable after the exercise of any Warrant and the clearance of the funds in payment of the Warrant Price (if payment is pursuant to subsection 3.3.1(a)), the Company shall issue to the Registered Holder of such Warrant a book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, for the number of full shares of Common Stock to which he, she or it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by him, her or it, and if such Warrant shall not have been exercised in full, a new book-entry position or countersigned Warrant, as applicable, for the number of shares of Common Stock as to which such Warrant shall not have been exercised. If fewer than all the Warrants evidenced by a Book-Entry Warrant Certificate are exercised, a notation shall be made to the records maintained by the Depositary, its nominee for each Book-Entry Warrant Certificate, or a Participant, as appropriate, evidencing the balance of the Warrants remaining after such exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of a Warrant and shall have no obligation to settle such Warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the Public Warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company’s satisfying its obligations under Section 7.4. No Warrant shall be exercisable and the Company shall not be obligated to issue shares of Common Stock upon exercise of a Warrant unless the Common Stock issuable upon such Warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt from registration or qualification under the securities laws of the state of residence of the Registered Holder of the Warrants, except pursuant to Section 7.4. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a Warrant, the holder of such Warrant shall not be entitled to exercise such Warrant and such Warrant may have no value and expire worthless, in which case the purchaser of a Unit containing such Public Warrants shall have paid the full purchase price for the Unit solely for the shares of Common Stock underlying such Unit. In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Warrant exercise. The Company may require holders of Public Warrants to settle the Warrant on a “cashless basis” pursuant to subsection 3.3.1(b)
Adjustment of Conversion Price (1) The Conversion Price in effect at any date will be subject to adjustment from time to time in the events and in the manner provided in this Article 5.
(2) If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Maturity Date, the Corporation:
(a) issues Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares as a stock dividend or otherwise;
(b) makes a distribution on its outstanding Common Shares to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares payable in Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares (other than an issue of Common Shares to holders of Common Shares pursuant to a right granted to such holders to receive such Common Shares in lieu of Dividends Paid in the Ordinary Course);
(c) subdivides its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of Common Shares; or
(d) reduces, combines or consolidates its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of Common Shares, (any of such events in subsections (a), (b), (c) and (d) being called a “Common Share Reorganization”), then the Conversion Price then in effect will be adjusted effective immediately on the effective date or record date for the happening of a Common Share Reorganization, as the case may be, at which the holders of Common Shares are determined for the purpose of the Common Share Reorganization, so that it will equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such effective date or record date by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such effective date or record date before giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization and the denominator of which will be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such Common Share Reorganization (including, in the case where securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares are distributed, the number of Common Shares that would have been outstanding had all such securities been exchanged for or converted into Common Shares on such effective date or record date).
(3) If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Maturity Date, the Corporation fixes a record date for the issue of rights, options or warrants to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares under which such holders are entitled, during a period expiring not more than 45 days after the record date for such issue (the “Rights Period”), to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares or securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares at a price per share to the holder (or at an exchange price or conversion price per share during the Rights Period to the holder in the case of securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares) which is less than 95% of the Current Market Price for the Common Shares on such record date (any of such events being called a “Rights Offering”), then the Conversion Price will be adjusted effective immediately after the end of the Rights Period so that it will equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the end of the Rights Period by a fraction:
(a) the numerator of which will be the aggregate of:
(i) the total number of Common Shares outstanding as of the record date for the commencement of the Rights Offering, and
(ii) a number determined by dividing (I) either (x) the product of the number of Common Shares issued or subscribed for during the Rights Period upon the exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering and the price at which such Common Shares are offered for such issue or subscription, or, as the case may be, (y) the product of the exchange price or conversion price of such securities exchangeable for or convertible into Common Shares and the number of Common Shares for or into which the securities so offered pursuant to the Rights Offering could have been exchanged or converted during the Rights Period, by (II) the Current Market Price of the Common Shares as of the record date for the commencement of the Rights Offering, and
(b) the denominator of which will be the number of Common Shares outstanding, or the number of Common Shares which would be outstanding if all the exchangeable or convertible securities were exchanged for or converted into Common Shares during the Rights Period, after giving effect to the Rights Offering and including the number of Common Shares actually issued or subscribed for during the Rights Period upon exercise of the rights, warrants or options under the Rights Offering. Any Debentureholder who has exercised the right to convert to Common Shares in accordance with Article 4 during the period beginning immediately after the record date for a Rights Offering and ending on the last day of the Rights Period for the Rights Offering will, in addition to the Common Shares to which that holder would otherwise be entitled upon such conversion, be entitled to that number of additional Common Shares equal to the result obtained when the difference, if any, between the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the end of such Rights Offering and the Conversion Price as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this Section 5.01(3) is multiplied by the number of Common Shares received upon the conversion of the Debentures held by such Holder during such period, and the resulting product is divided by the Conversion Price as adjusted for such Rights Offering pursuant to this Section 5.01(3); provided that the provisions of Section 4.03 will be applicable to any fractional interest in a Common Share to which such Holder might otherwise be entitled under the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.01(3). Such additional Common Shares will be deemed to have been issued to the Debentureholder immediately following the end of the Rights Period and a certificate for such additional Common Shares will be delivered to such Holder within 15 Business Days following the end of the Rights Period. To the extent that any such rights, options or warrants are not so exercised on or before the expiry thereof, the Conversion Price will be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based on the number of Common Shares (or the securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) actually delivered on the exercise of such rights, options or warrants.
(4) If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Maturity Date, the Corporation fixes a record date for the issue or the distribution to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares of (i) securities of the Corporation, including rights, options or warrants to acquire securities of the Corporation or any of its property or assets and including cash and evidences of indebtedness; or (ii) any property or other assets, including cash and evidences of indebtedness, and if such issuance or distribution does not constitute a Dividend Paid in the Ordinary Course, a Common Share Reorganization, a Rights Offering or a distribution contemplated by Section 5.01(3) (any of such non-excluded events being called a “Special Distribution”), then the Conversion Price will be adjusted effective immediately after such record date so that it will equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect on such record date by a fraction:
(a) the numerator of which will be:
(i) the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date; less
(ii) the fair market value, as determined by action by the Board of Directors (whose determination, subject to the consent of a Recognized Stock Exchange, will be conclusive), to the holders of Common Shares of such securities or property or other assets so issued or distributed in the Special Distribution; and
(b) the denominator of which will be the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price of the Common Shares on such record date. To the extent that any Special Distribution is not so made, the Conversion Price will be readjusted effective immediately to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect based upon such securities or property or other assets as actually distributed.
(5) If and whenever at any time after the date hereof and prior to the Maturity Date, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares at any time outstanding or change of the Common Shares into other shares or into other securities or other capital reorganization (other than a Common Share Reorganization), or a consolidation, amalgamation or merger of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or other entity (other than a vertical short-form amalgamation with one or more of its Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries pursuant to the Canada Business Corporations Act), or a transfer of the undertaking or assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to another corporation or other entity in which the holders of Common Shares are entitled to receive shares, other securities or other property (any of such events being called a “Capital Reorganization”), any Holder of Debentures who exercises the right to convert Debentures into Common Shares pursuant to Debentures then held after the effective date of such Capital Reorganization will be entitled to receive, and will accept for the same aggregate consideration in lieu of the number of Common Shares to which such Holder was previously entitled upon such conversion, the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property that such holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of such Capital Reorganization if, on the effective date thereof, the holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares to which such holder was previously entitled upon conversion subject, however, to any requirements necessary to ensure that the interest payable on the Debentures will be and will remain exempt from Canadian withholding tax including the requirement in effect on the date hereof for so long as such requirement is in effect that a Holder of Debentures will not be entitled to receive shares, other securities or property other than securities that are “prescribed securities” as defined in Regulation 6208 to the Income Tax Act (Canada) on or prior to five years after the date of issue of the Debentures. Subject to the preceding sentence, the Corporation will take all steps necessary to ensure that, on a Capital Reorganization, the Holders of Debentures will receive the aggregate number of shares, other securities or other property to which they are entitled as a result of the Capital Reorganization. Appropriate adjustments will be made as a result of any such Capital Reorganization in the application of the provisions set forth in this Article 5 with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of Holders of Debentures to the end that the provisions set forth in this Article 5 will thereafter correspondingly be made applicable as nearly as may reasonably be in relation to any shares, other securities or other property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of any Debenture. Prior to or concurrent with effecting a Capital Reorganization, the Corporation will enter into an indenture supplemental hereto approved by action of the Board of Directors and by the Trustee, relying on advice of counsel, that will set forth an appropriate adjustment to give effect to this Section 5.01(5), in which event such adjustment will for all purposes be conclusively deemed to be an appropriate adjustment, subject to any required prior consent of a Recognized Stock Exchange.
(6) If the purchase price provided for in any rights, options or warrants (the “Rights Offering Price”) referred to in Sections 5.01(3) or (4) is decreased, the Conversion Price will forthwith be changed so as to decrease the Conversion Price to the Conversion Price that would have been obtained if the adjustment to the Conversion Price made under Section 5.01(3) or (4), as the case may be, with respect to such rights, options or warrants had been made on the basis of the Rights Offering Price as so decreased, provided that the terms of this Section 5.01(6) will not apply to any decrease in the Rights Offering Price resulting from terms in any such rights, options or warrants designed to prevent dilution except to the extent that the resulting decrease in the Conversion Price under this Section 5.01(6) would be greater than the decrease, if any, in the Conversion Price to be made under the terms of this Section 5.01(6) by virtue of the occurrence of the event giving rise to such decrease in the Rights Offering Price.
(7) In any case in which this Section 5.01 requires that an adjustment will become effective immediately after a record date for an event referred to herein, the Corporation may defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the Holder of any Debenture converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional Common Shares issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event, provided, however, that the Corporation will deliver to such Holder evidence of such Holder’s right to receive such additional Common Shares upon the occurrence of such event and the right to receive any distributions made on such additional Common Shares declared in favour of holders of record of Common Shares on and after the date of conversion or such later date on which such Holder would, but for the provisions of this Section 5.01(7), have become the holder of record of such additional Common Shares.
Adjustment of Exercise Price, Number of Shares of Common Stock or Number of the Company Warrants The Exercise Price, the number of shares covered by each Warrant and the number of Warrants outstanding are subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in Section 3 of the Warrant Certificate. In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to Section 3 of the Warrant Certificate, the Holder of any Warrant thereafter exercised shall become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than shares of Common Stock, thereafter the number of such other shares so receivable upon exercise of any Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the shares contained in Section 3 of the Warrant Certificate and the provisions of Sections 7, 11 and 12 of this Agreement with respect to the shares of Common Stock shall apply on like terms to any such other shares. All Warrants originally issued by the Company subsequent to any adjustment made to the Exercise Price pursuant to the Warrant Certificate shall evidence the right to purchase, at the adjusted Exercise Price, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable from time to time hereunder upon exercise of the Warrants, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.
No Adjustment of Conversion Price No adjustment in the Conversion Price of a particular series of Preferred Stock shall be made in respect of the issuance of Additional Shares of Common unless the consideration per share (as determined pursuant to paragraph 4(d)(v)) for an Additional Share of Common issued or deemed to be issued by the Corporation is less than the Conversion Price in effect on the date of, and immediately prior to such issue, for such series of Preferred Stock.
Notice of Adjustments of Conversion Price Whenever the conversion price is adjusted as herein provided:
(a) the Company shall compute the adjusted conversion price in accordance with Section 14.04 and shall prepare a certificate signed by the Treasurer or other appropriate officer of the Company setting forth the adjusted conversion price and showing in reasonable detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based, and such certificate shall promptly be filed with the Trustee and with the Conversion Agent at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of Securities pursuant to Section 10.02; and
(b) a notice stating that the conversion price has been adjusted and setting forth the adjusted conversion price shall be required, and as soon as practicable after it is required, such notice shall be delivered electronically or mailed by the Company to all Holders at their last addresses as they shall appear in the Security Register.
Conversion of Common Stock In case all or any portion of the authorized and outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company are redeemed or converted or reclassified into other securities or property pursuant to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation or otherwise, or the Common Stock otherwise ceases to exist, then, in such case, the Holder of this Warrant, upon exercise hereof at any time after the date on which the Common Stock is so redeemed or converted, reclassified or ceases to exist (the "TERMINATION DATE"), shall receive, in lieu of the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the Termination Date, the securities or property that would have been received if this Warrant had been exercised in full and the Common Stock received thereupon had been simultaneously converted immediately prior to the Termination Date, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Warrant. Additionally, the Purchase Price shall be immediately adjusted such that the aggregate Purchase Price of the maximum number of securities or other property for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately after the Termination Date is equal to the aggregate Purchase Price of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to the Termination Date, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.
