Investor Rights Agreement The Investor Rights Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B shall have been executed and delivered by the parties thereto.
Registration Rights Agreement The Company and the Initial Shareholders have entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) substantially in the form annexed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, whereby the parties will be entitled to certain registration rights with respect to their securities, as set forth in such Registration Rights Agreement and described more fully in the Registration Statement.
Registration Agreement The holder of this Exchangeable Note is entitled to the benefits of a Registration Agreement, dated as of March 25, 2002, by and among the Company, Navistar and the Initial Purchasers (the "Registration Agreement"). Pursuant to the Registration Agreement, the Company and Navistar have agreed for the benefit of the holders of the Exchangeable Notes and the Common Stock issued and issuable upon exchange of the Exchangeable Notes, that (i) they will, at their cost, within 90 days after the Issue Date, file a shelf registration statement (the "Shelf Registration Statement") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") with respect to resales of the Exchangeable Notes and the Common Stock issuable upon exchange thereof, (ii) the Company and Navistar will use their reasonable best efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission under the Securities Act within 210 days after the Issue Date and (iii) the Company and Navistar will use their reasonable best efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the earliest of (1) the latest of the second anniversary of (a) the Issue Date, (b) the last date on which any Exchangeable Notes are issued upon exercise of the Initial Purchasers' over-allotment option or (c) the last date on which any unregistered Navistar Common Stock is issued or issuable in exchange for Exchangeable Notes; (2) the date on which the Exchangeable Notes and the unregistered Common Stock issuable upon their exchange may be sold by non-affiliates of Navistar and Navistar Financial pursuant to paragraph (k) of Rule 144 (or any successor provision) promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act; (3) the date as of which all the Exchangeable Notes and the Common Stock issuable upon their exchange have been sold under Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any similar provision then in force) or (4) the date as of which all the Exchangeable Notes or the Common Stock issuable upon their exchange have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration. If the Shelf Registration Statement (i) is not filed with the Commission on or prior to 90 days, or has not been declared effective by the Commission within 210 days, after the Issue Date or (ii) is filed and declared effective but shall thereafter cease to be effective (without being succeeded immediately by a replacement shelf registration statement filed and declared effective) or cease to be usable (including, without limitation, as a result of a Suspension Period as defined below) for the offer and sale of Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined below) for a period of time (including any Suspension Period) which shall exceed 60 days in the aggregate in any 12-month period during the period beginning on the Issue Date and ending on the second anniversary of the latest of (a) the Issue Date, (b) the second anniversary of the last date on which any Exchangeable Notes are issued upon exercise of the Initial Purchasers' over-allotment option and (c) the last date on which any unregistered Navistar Common Stock is issued or issuable in exchange for the Exchange Notes (each such event referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) being referred to herein as a "Registration Default"), the Company will pay liquidated damages to each holder of Transfer Restricted Securities that are Exchangeable Notes and Navistar will pay liquidated damages to each holder of Transfer Restricted Securities that are Common Stock (together, "Liquidated Damages") which has complied with its obligations under the Registration Agreement. The amount of Liquidated Damages payable during any period in which a Registration Default shall have occurred and be continuing is that amount which is equal to one-quarter of one percent (25 basis points) per annum per $1,000 principal amount of Exchangeable Notes and $2.50 per annum per 17.944 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment from time to time in the event of a stock split, stock recombination, stock dividend and the like) constituting Transfer Restricted Securities for the first 90 days during which a Registration Default has occurred and is continuing and one-half of one percent (50 basis points) per annum per $1,000 principal amount of Exchangeable Notes and $5.00 per annum per 17.944 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment as set forth above) constituting Transfer Restricted Securities for any additional days during which such Registration Default has occurred and is continuing. All accrued Liquidated Damages will be paid by check on each Damages Payment Date (as defined in the Registration Agreement), and Liquidated Damages will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Following the cure of a Registration Default, Liquidated Damages will cease to accrue with respect to such Registration Default.
Registration Rights Agreements As a further inducement for the Purchaser to purchase the Private Placement Shares, at the time of the completion of the IPO, the Company and the Purchaser shall enter into a registration rights agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, pursuant to which the Company will grant certain registration rights to the Purchaser relating to the Private Placement Shares.
Issue Description Execution Registration and Exchange of Notes SECTION 2.1. DESIGNATION, AMOUNT AND ISSUE OF NOTES. The Notes shall be designated as "6 3/4% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2009." Notes not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of $37,285,000 upon the execution of this Indenture, or (except pursuant to Sections 2.5, 2.6, 3.3, 15.2 and 16.2) from time to time thereafter, may be executed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee for authentication, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver said Notes upon the written order of the Company, signed by the Company's (a) President, Executive Vice President or any Vice President (whether or not designated by a word or words added after the title "Vice President") and (b) Treasurer or Assistant Treasurer or its Secretary or any Assistant Secretary, without any further action by the Company hereunder other than the provision to the Trustee of an Officer's Certificate and Opinion of Counsel.
Warrant Agreement and Registration and Shareholder Rights Agreement The Company shall have entered into the Warrant Agreement, in the form of Exhibit A hereto, and the Registration and Shareholder Rights Agreement, in the form of Exhibit B hereto, in each case on terms satisfactory to the Purchaser.
Registration, Transfer and Exchange (a) The Notes will be issued in registered form only, without coupons, and the Company shall cause the Trustee to maintain a register (the “Register”) of the Notes, for registering the record ownership of the Notes by the Holders and transfers and exchanges of the Notes.
(1) Each Global Note will be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee and, so long as DTC is serving as the Depositary thereof, will bear the DTC Legend.
(2) Each Global Note will be delivered to the Trustee as custodian for the Depositary. Transfers of a Global Note (but not a beneficial interest therein) will be limited to transfers thereof in whole, but not in part, to the Depositary, its successors or their respective nominees, except (1) as set forth in Section 2.09(b)(4) and (2) transfers of portions thereof in the form of Certificated Notes may be made upon request of an Agent Member (for itself or on behalf of a beneficial owner) by written notice given to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Depositary in accordance with customary procedures of the Depositary and in compliance with this Section and Section 2.10 or Section 2.01(b)(5) and only under the circumstances provided for in Sections 2.01(b)(5) or 2.09(b)(4) unless otherwise agreed to by the Company.
(3) Agent Members will have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the Depositary, and the Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner and Holder of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Depositary or its nominee may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person (including any Agent Member and any Person that holds a beneficial interest in a Global Note through an Agent Member) to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under the Indenture or the Notes, and nothing herein will impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any security.
(4) If (x) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for a Global Note and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of the notice or (y) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Trustee has received a request from the Depositary, the Trustee will promptly exchange each beneficial interest in the Global Note for one or more Certificated Notes in authorized denominations having an equal aggregate principal amount registered in the name of the owner of such beneficial interest, as identified to the Trustee by the Depositary, and thereupon the Global Note will be deemed canceled. If such Note does not bear the Restricted Legend, then the Certificated Notes issued in exchange therefor will not bear the Restricted Legend. If such Note bears the Restricted Legend, then the Certificated Notes issued in exchange therefor will bear the Restricted Legend, provided that any Holder of any such Certificated Note issued in exchange for a beneficial interest in a Temporary Offshore Global Note will have the right upon presentation to the Trustee of a duly completed Certificate of Beneficial Ownership after the Restricted Period to exchange such Certificated Note for a Certificated Note of like tenor and amount that does not bear the Restricted Legend, registered in the name of such Holder.
(c) Each Certificated Note will be registered in the name of the holder thereof or its nominee.
(d) A Holder may transfer a Note (or a beneficial interest therein) to another Person or exchange a Note (or a beneficial interest therein) for another Note or Notes of any authorized denomination by presenting to the Trustee a written request therefor stating the name of the proposed transferee or requesting such an exchange, accompanied by any certification, opinion or other document required by Section 2.10. The Trustee will promptly register any transfer or exchange that meets the requirements of this Section by noting the same in the register maintained by the Trustee for the purpose; provided that
Registration of the Notes and Each Note Holder The Agent shall keep or cause to be kept at the Agent Office books (the “Note Register”) for the registration and transfer of the Notes. The Agent shall serve as the initial note registrar and the Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The names and addresses of the holders of the Notes and the names and addresses of any transferee of any Note of which the Agent has received notice, in the form of a copy of the assignment and assumption agreement referred to in this Section 15, shall be registered in the Note Register. The Person in whose name a Note is so registered shall be deemed and treated as the sole owner and holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon request of a Note Holder, the Agent shall provide such party with the names and addresses of each other Note Holder. To the extent the Trustee or another party is appointed as Agent hereunder, each Note Holder hereby designates such person as its agent under this Section 15 solely for purposes of maintaining the Note Register. In connection with any Transfer of a Note (but excluding any Pledgee unless and until it realizes on its Pledge), a transferee shall execute an assignment and assumption agreement (unless the transferee is a Securitization Trust and the related pooling and servicing agreement requires the parties thereto to comply with this Agreement), whereby such transferee assumes all of the obligations of the applicable Note Holder hereunder with respect to such Note thereafter accruing and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, including the applicable restriction on Transfers set forth in Section 14, from and after the date of such assignment. No transfer of a Note may be made unless it is registered on the Note Register, and the Agent shall not recognize any attempted or purported transfer of any Note in violation of the provisions of Section 14 and this Section 15. Any such purported transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. Each Note Holder desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Agent and each other Note Holder against any liability that may result if the transfer is not made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
Indemnification by Holder of Registrable Securities Each holder of Registrable Securities severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, employees and agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each other holder of Registrable Securities that participates in such offering to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to such holder, but only with respect to information relating to such holder furnished in writing by such holder expressly for use in any Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus. In case any action or proceeding shall be brought against the Company or its directors or officers or any such controlling person, in respect of which indemnity may be sought against a holder of Registrable Securities, such holder shall have the rights and duties given the Company and the Company or its directors or officers or such controlling person shall have the rights and duties given to each holder by the preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company is an indemnified party, the Company shall designate the one counsel, and in all other circumstances, the one counsel shall be designated by a majority in interest based upon the Registrable Securities of the Indemnified parties. In no event shall the liability of any selling holder of Registrable Securities hereunder be greater in amount than the proceeds received by such holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. The Company and each other holder of Registrable Securities that participates in such offering shall be entitled to receive indemnities from underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, to the same extent as provided above with respect to information so furnished in writing by such Persons specifically for inclusion in any Prospectus or Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus.
Registration, Transfer and Exchange Generally (a) The Trustee shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office a register (the “Securities Register”) in which the registrar and transfer agent with respect to the Securities (the “Securities Registrar”), subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers and exchanges of Securities. The Trustee shall at all times also be the Securities Registrar. The provisions of Article VI shall apply to the Trustee in its role as Securities Registrar.
(b) Subject to compliance with Section 2.2(b), upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at the offices or agencies of the Company designated for that purpose the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of any authorized denominations of like tenor and aggregate principal amount.
(c) At the option of the Holder, Securities may be exchanged for other Securities of any authorized denominations, of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and upon receipt thereof the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.
(d) All Securities issued upon any transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.
(e) Every Security presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Securities Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing.
(f) No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Securities.
(g) Neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be required pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.5 to (i) issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security during a period beginning at the opening of business fifteen (15) days before the day of selection for redemption of Securities pursuant to Article XI and ending at the close of business on the day of mailing of the notice of redemption or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except, in the case of any such Security to be redeemed in part, any portion thereof not to be redeemed.
(h) The Company shall designate an office or offices or agency or agencies where Securities may be surrendered for registration or transfer or exchange. The Company initially designates the Corporate Trust Office as its office and agency for such purposes. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee and to the Holders of any change in the location of any such office or agency.
