Put Right (a) Upon the occurrence of a Put Event, the KO Shareholders shall have the right (a “Put Right”) to require the Majority Shareholders to purchase all, but not less than all, of the shares of Andina stock owned by them (except as provided in the next sentence) at the Put Price (calculated on a per share basis) as determined in Section 5.1(b). For purposes of this Section 5.1, the Shareholders agree that the shares of Andina stock subject to the Put Right shall include only the Shares currently owned by the KO Shareholders and any additional shares of Andina capital stock acquired by the KO Shareholders through the exercise of their preemptive rights. The KO Shareholders shall give written notice to the Majority Shareholders of their intention to exercise their Put Right within 15 days after the date of the first meeting of the KO Board of Directors which is held at least 30 days after the date upon which the KO Shareholders receive written notice of the determination of the Put Price pursuant to Section 5.1(b).
(b) Upon the occurrence of a Put Event, at the request of the KO Shareholders, the parties shall cause the Put Price to be determined as follows:
(i) If the shares to be purchased by the Majority Shareholders pursuant to the Put Right are shares of Series A Stock, the Put Price for such shares shall be mutually agreed upon by the KO Shareholders and the Majority Shareholders or, if the KO Shareholders and the Majority Shareholders are unable to agree within thirty days after the request by the KO Shareholders for the determination of the Put Price, the Majority Shareholders, on the one hand, and the KO Shareholders, on the other hand, shall each choose an internationally recognized investment banking firm with experience in the analysis of soft drink businesses, and each of those two firms within 60 days from the date of their engagement shall prepare an appraisal setting forth its determination of the Put Price. If such two firms do not agree on the Put Price and following such determination the KO Shareholders and the Majority Shareholders continue to be unable to agree upon the Put Price within ten days from the expiration of such 60-day term, the two firms shall, in good faith, select a third investment banking firm, which third firm shall be an internationally recognized firm with experience in the analysis of soft drink businesses. The third investment banking firm so selected shall within forty-five days from the date of its engagement prepare an appraisal setting forth its determination of the Put Price, which determination shall be final and binding to the parties. The cost of such investment banking firm(s) shall be borne equally by the KO Shareholders, on the one hand, and the Majority Shareholders, on the other. The KO Shareholders and the Majority Shareholders shall cooperate fully in selecting investment bankers and shall cooperate fully in their determination of the Put Price. If a party fails to select an investment banker or fails to cooperate with such banker as described herein, in either case, within ten days of receipt of a notice specifying such failure to cooperate from the other party or parties, the other party or parties shall, in good faith, cooperate with the investment banker already retained under the terms of this provision or, if not yet retained, select an investment banking firm of its sole discretion, to make a determination of the Put Price, which determination shall be final and binding on the parties. The parties shall instruct the investment banking firm so retained to deliver its written opinion as to the Put Price to the parties within thirty days following the selection of such banker. The Put Price of the shares of Series A Stock shall be the price that a holder of shares of Series A Stock would receive upon the sale of such shares in a transaction under market conditions between a willing seller and a willing buyer as of the date of the request by the KO Shareholders that the Put Price be determined.
(ii) If the Shares to be purchase by the Majority Shareholders pursuant to the Put Right are shares of Series B Stock, the Put Price shall be the Market Value of such shares of Series B Stock.
(c) If the KO Shareholders shall for purposes of this Agreement consent in writing to a Put Event, such prior written consent shall be deemed to be a waiver of their Put Right for purposes of the transaction as to which written consent has been given; provided, however, that such written consent shall not be deemed to be a waiver of their Put Right for purposes of any other transaction which might be deemed to constitute a Put Event.
Company Reacquisition Right In the event that (a) the Awardee’s employment terminates for any reason or no reason, with or without cause, or (b) the Awardee, the Awardee’s legal representative, or other holder of the shares of Common Stock subject to this Award, attempts to sell, exchange, transfer, pledge, or otherwise dispose of any portion of this Award prior to its distribution from the escrow established in accordance with Section 8 of this Agreement, the Company shall automatically reacquire such shares underlying the applicable portion of this Award, and the Awardee shall not be entitled to any payment therefore (the “Company Reacquisition Right”).
Option Closing To the extent the Option is exercised, delivery of the Option Securities against payment by the Underwriters (in the manner and at the location specified above) shall take place at the time and date (which may be the Closing Date, but not earlier than the Closing Date) specified in the Option Notice.
The Optional Shares; Option Closing Date In addition, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, and upon the terms but subject to the conditions herein set forth, the Company hereby grants an option to the several Underwriters to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to an aggregate of [•] Optional Shares from the Company at the purchase price per share to be paid by the Underwriters for the Firm Shares. The option granted hereunder may be exercised at any time and from time to time in whole or in part upon notice by the Representatives to the Company, which notice may be given at any time within 30 days from the date of this Agreement. Such notice shall set forth (i) the aggregate number of Optional Shares as to which the Underwriters are exercising the option and (ii) the time, date and place at which the Optional Shares will be delivered (which time and date may be simultaneous with, but not earlier than, the First Closing Date; and in the event that such time and date are simultaneous with the First Closing Date, the term “First Closing Date” shall refer to the time and date of delivery of the Firm Shares and such Optional Shares). Any such time and date of delivery, if subsequent to the First Closing Date, is called an “Option Closing Date,” and shall be determined by the Representatives and shall not be earlier than two or later than five full business days after delivery of such notice of exercise. If any Optional Shares are to be purchased, each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase the number of Optional Shares (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as the Representatives may determine) that bears the same proportion to the total number of Optional Shares to be purchased as the number of Firm Shares set forth on Schedule A opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Firm Shares. The Representatives may cancel the option at any time prior to its expiration by giving written notice of such cancellation to the Company.
