Treatment of Warrant Upon Acquisition of Company (a) For the purpose of this Warrant, “Acquisition” means any transaction or series of related transactions involving: (i) the sale, lease, exclusive license, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (ii) any merger or consolidation of the Company into or with another person or entity (other than a merger or consolidation effected exclusively to change the Company’s domicile), or any other corporate reorganization, in which the stockholders of the Company in their capacity as such immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or reorganization, own less than a majority of the Company’s (or the surviving or successor entity’s) outstanding voting power immediately after such merger, consolidation or reorganization; or (iii) any sale or other transfer by the stockholders of the Company of shares representing at least a majority of the Company’s then-total outstanding combined voting power.
Rights to Negotiate Repurchase Price Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to restrict or prohibit the Company from purchasing, redeeming or otherwise acquiring for value shares of Stock or Options from the Management Stockholder, at any time, upon such terms and conditions, and for such price, as may be mutually agreed upon in writing between the Parties, whether or not at the time of such purchase, redemption or acquisition circumstances exist which specifically grant the Company the right to purchase, or the Management Stockholder the right to sell, shares of Stock or any Options under the terms of this Agreement; provided that no such purchase, redemption or acquisition shall be consummated, and no agreement with respect to any such purchase, redemption or acquisition shall be entered into, without the prior approval of the Board.
Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control (a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company will make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), subject to the rights of Holders of the Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company will mail a notice to each Holder describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and stating:
Offer to Repurchase Upon a Change of Control Following a Change of Control (the date of each such occurrence being the “Change of Control Date”), the Issuer shall notify the holders of Notes in writing of such occurrence and shall make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to repurchase all Notes then outstanding at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount thereof (the “Change of Control Payment”), plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, to, but not including, the Change of Control Payment Date (as defined below). Notice of a Change of Control (the “Issuer Notice”) shall be mailed by or at the direction and expense of the Issuer through the Trustee to the holders of Notes as shown on the Register of such holders maintained by the Registrar not more than 30 days after the applicable Change of Control Date at the addresses as shown on the Register of holders maintained by the Registrar, with a copy to the Trustee and the Paying Agent. The Change of Control Offer shall remain open until a specified date (the “Change of Control Offer Termination Date”) which is at least 20 Business Days from the date such Issuer Notice is mailed. During the period specified in such notice, holders of Notes of any series may elect to tender their Notes in whole or in part in integral multiples of $1,000. Payment shall be made by the Issuer in the manner elected by the Issuer pursuant to Section 4.06(b) in respect of Notes properly tendered pursuant to this Section on a specified Business Day (the “Change of Control Payment Date”) which shall be no earlier than 20 Business Days and no later than 35 Business Days after the date of the Issuer Notice. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer, shall include such disclosures as are required by law and shall state:
Preservation of Purchase Rights Upon Merger, Consolidation, etc In case of any consolidation of the Company with or merger of the Company into another corporation or in case of any sale, transfer or lease to another corporation of all or substantially all of the property of the Company, the Company or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall execute with the Warrantholders an agreement that the Warrantholders shall have the right thereafter upon payment of the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action to purchase upon exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property which such holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or lease had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such action; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no adjustment in respect of cash dividends, interest or other income on or from such shares or other securities and property shall be made during the term of this Warrant or upon the exercise of this Warrant. Such agreement shall provide for adjustments, which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 5. The provisions of this Section 5 shall apply similarly to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or leases.
Offer to Purchase upon Change of Control Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Issuers will make an Offer to Purchase (the “Change of Control Offer”) all of the outstanding Notes at a Purchase Price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount tendered, together with accrued interest, if any, to but not including the Purchase Date (the “Change of Control Payment”). For purposes of the foregoing, an Offer to Purchase shall be deemed to have been made if (i) within 30 days following the date of the consummation of a transaction or series of transactions that constitutes a Change of Control, the Issuers commence an Offer to Purchase all outstanding Notes at the Purchase Price (provided that the running of such 30-day period shall be suspended, for up to a maximum of 30 days, during any period when the commencement of such Offer to Purchase is delayed or suspended by reason of any court’s or governmental authority’s review of or ruling on any materials being employed by the Issuers to effect such Offer to Purchase, so long as the Issuers have used and continue to use their commercial best efforts to make and conclude such Offer to Purchase promptly) and (ii) all Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Offer to Purchase are purchased on the terms of such Offer to Purchase. The Issuers shall comply with the requirements of any applicable securities laws and any regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control. On the Purchase Date, the Issuers shall, to the extent lawful, (a) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (b) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered and (c) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof being purchased by the Issuers. The Paying Agent will promptly mail (or wire transfer) to each Holder of Notes so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each such new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Issuers will announce the results of the Change of Control Offer to all Holders on or as soon as practicable after the Purchase Date. The Change of Control provisions described above will be applicable whether or not any other provisions of this Indenture are applicable. Except as described above with respect to a Change of Control, this Indenture does not contain provisions that permit the Holders to require that the Issuers repurchase or redeem the Notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction. The Issuers shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if (i) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer contemporaneously with or upon a Change of Control in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth herein applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuers and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer or (ii) a notice of redemption has been given pursuant to Section 3.7. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control provisions of this Indenture, the Issuers will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached their obligations under the Change of Control provisions of this Indenture by virtue of such conflict. In addition, an Offer to Purchase may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of launching the Offer to Purchase.
Change of Control Repurchase Event If a Change of Control Repurchase Event (as defined below) occurs, unless the Issuer has exercised its right to redeem the Notes as described above or has defeased the Notes pursuant to Section 10.1 of the Original Indenture, the Issuer will be required to make an irrevocable offer to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to or in excess of $2,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but not including, the date of repurchase. Within 30 days following a Change of Control Repurchase Event or, at the Issuer’s option, prior to a Change of Control (as defined below), but in either case, after the public announcement of the Change of Control, the Issuer will give, or shall cause to be given, a notice to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event, offering to repurchase Notes on the payment date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is given, disclosing that any Note not tendered for repurchase will continue to accrue interest, and specifying the procedures for tendering Notes. The notice shall, if given prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice. The Issuer must comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Notes, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached the obligations of the Issuer under the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Notes by virtue of such conflict. On the repurchase date following a Change of Control Repurchase Event, the Issuer will be required, to the extent lawful, to: (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted, together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes being purchased. The Paying Agent will promptly distribute to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the purchase price for the Notes deposited by the Issuer. The Issuer will execute, and the Authenticating Agent will promptly authenticate and deliver (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes surrendered provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of an integral multiple of $1,000. The Issuer will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Issuer and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. As used in this Section 2.9, the terms set forth below shall have the following respective meanings:
Repurchase of Notes Upon a Change of Control Not later than 30 days following a Change of Control, the Company will make an Offer to Purchase all outstanding Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount plus accrued interest to the date of purchase.
