Effect of Failure to File and Obtain and Maintain Effectiveness of Registration Statement The parties hereto agree that the Investors will suffer damages if the Company fails to fulfill its obligations under this Section 2 and that, in such case, it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision. Subject to Section 2.b, if (i) a Registration Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities required to be covered thereby and required to be filed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement is (A) not filed with the SEC on or before the Filing Deadline (a “Filing Failure”) or (B) not declared effective by the SEC on or before the Effectiveness Deadline (an “Effectiveness Failure”); or (ii) on any day after the Effective Date, sales of all of the Registrable Securities required to be included on such Registration Statement cannot be made (other than (x) during an Allowable Grace Period (as defined in Section 3.p) or (y) if the Registration Statement is on Form S-1, for a period of fifteen (15) days following the date on which the Company files a post-effective amendment to incorporate the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K) pursuant to such Registration Statement (including, without limitation, because of a failure to keep such Registration Statement effective, failure to disclose such information as is necessary for sales to be made pursuant to such Registration Statement or failure to register a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock) (a “Maintenance Failure” and, any Maintenance Failure, Filing Failure or Effectiveness Failure, a “Registration Default”) then, as partial relief for the damages to any holder of Registrable Securities by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the underlying shares of Common Stock (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available at law or in equity) and not as a penalty, the Company shall pay to each holder of Registrable Securities, aggregate additional interest on the principal amount of the outstanding Convertible Note in the amounts described below (the “Additional Interest”) (and all outstanding shares of Common Stock to the extent the Convertible Note has been converted prior to the occurrence of the Registration Default and such shares of Common Stock remain Registrable Securities); provided that any payment on shares of Common Stock will be calculated based on, as applicable (A) the principal amount of the Convertible Note as a result of conversion of which such shares of Common Stock have been issued or (B) the value of the Warrant as a result of exercise of which such shares of Common Stock have been issued; provided further that any such Additional Interest will cease to accrue to holders hereunder and under the Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents when any such Registration Default will cease, be remedied or be cured. The Company will pay any Additional Interest as set forth in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. In the event of a Filing Failure, the Company shall pay Additional Interest in the amount of (i) 5.0% of the principal amount outstanding on the Convertible Note during the period between the Filing Deadline and the 75th day thereafter, for as long as the Filing Failure continues, (ii) 10.0% of the principal amount outstanding on the Convertible Note during the period beginning on the 76th day after the Filing Deadline and the 120th day thereafter, for as long as the Filing Failure continues, and (iii) 12.0% thereafter for as long as the Filing Failure continues. In the event of an Effectiveness Failure, the Company shall pay Additional Interest in the amount of (i) 5.0% of the principal amount outstanding on the Convertible Note during the period between the Effectiveness Deadline and the 45th day thereafter, for as long as the Effectiveness Failure continues, (ii) 10.0% of the principal amount outstanding on the Convertible Note during the period beginning on the 46th day after the Effectiveness Deadline and 75th day thereafter, for as long as the Effectiveness Failure continues, and (iii) 12.0% thereafter for as long as the Effectiveness Failure continues.
Effectiveness of Covenants (a) Following the first day:
Effect of Failure to File and Obtain and Maintain Effectiveness of any Registration Statement If (i) a Registration Statement covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities required to be covered thereby (disregarding any reduction pursuant to Section 2(f)) and required to be filed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement is (A) not filed with the SEC on or before the Filing Deadline for such Registration Statement (a “Filing Failure”) (it being understood that if the Company files a Registration Statement without affording each Investor and Legal Counsel the opportunity to review and comment on the same as required by Section 3(c) hereof, the Company shall be deemed to not have satisfied this clause (i)(A) and such event shall be deemed to be a Filing Failure) or (B) not declared effective by the SEC on or before the Effectiveness Deadline for such Registration Statement (an “Effectiveness Failure”) (it being understood that if on the Business Day immediately following the Effective Date for such Registration Statement the Company shall not have filed a “final” prospectus for such Registration Statement with the SEC under Rule 424(b) in accordance with Section 3(b) (whether or not such a prospectus is technically required by such rule), the Company shall be deemed to not have satisfied this clause (i)(B) and such event shall be deemed to be an Effectiveness Failure), (ii) other than during an Allowable Grace Period (as defined below), on any day after the Effective Date of a Registration Statement sales of all of the Registrable Securities required to be included on such Registration Statement (disregarding any reduction pursuant to Section 2(f)) cannot be made pursuant to such Registration Statement (including, without limitation, because of a failure to keep such Registration Statement effective, a failure to disclose such information as is necessary for sales to be made pursuant to such Registration Statement, a suspension or delisting of (or a failure to timely list) the shares of Common Stock on the Principal Market (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) or any other limitations imposed by the Principal Market, or a failure to register a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock or by reason of a stop order) or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use for any reason (a “Maintenance Failure”), or (iii) if a Registration Statement is not effective for any reason or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use for any reason, and either (x) the Company fails for any reason to satisfy the requirements of Rule 144(c)(1), including, without limitation, the failure to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144(c) or (y) the Company has ever been an issuer described in Rule 144(i)(1)(i) or becomes such an issuer in the future, and the Company shall fail to satisfy any condition set forth in Rule 144(i)(2) (a “Current Public Information Failure”) as a result of which any of the Investors are unable to sell Registrable Securities without restriction under Rule 144 (including, without limitation, volume restrictions), then, as partial relief for the damages to any holder by reason of any such delay in, or reduction of, its ability to sell the underlying shares of Common Stock (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available at law or in equity, including, without limitation, specific performance), the Company shall pay to each holder of Registrable Securities relating to such Registration Statement an amount in cash equal to two percent (2%) of such Investor’s original principal amount stated in such Investor’s Note on the Closing Date (1) on the date of such Filing Failure, Effectiveness Failure, Maintenance Failure or Current Public Information Failure, as applicable, and (2) on every thirty (30) day anniversary of (I) a Filing Failure until such Filing Failure is cured; (II) an Effectiveness Failure until such Effectiveness Failure is cured; (III) a Maintenance Failure until such Maintenance Failure is cured; and (IV) a Current Public Information Failure until the earlier of (i) the date such Current Public Information Failure is cured and (ii) such time that such public information is no longer required pursuant to Rule 144 (in each case, pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty (30) days). The payments to which a holder of Registrable Securities shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 2(e) are referred to herein as “Registration Delay Payments.” Following the initial Registration Delay Payment for any particular event or failure (which shall be paid on the date of such event or failure, as set forth above), without limiting the foregoing, if an event or failure giving rise to the Registration Delay Payments is cured prior to any thirty (30) day anniversary of such event or failure, then such Registration Delay Payment shall be made on the third (3rd) Business Day after such cure. In the event the Company fails to make Registration Delay Payments in a timely manner in accordance with the foregoing, such Registration Delay Payments shall bear interest at the rate of two percent (2%) per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Registration Delay Payments shall be owed to an Investor (other than with respect to a Maintenance Failure resulting from a suspension or delisting of (or a failure to timely list) the shares of Common Stock on the Principal Market) with respect to any period during which all of such Investor’s Registrable Securities may be sold by such Investor without restriction under Rule 144 (including, without limitation, volume restrictions) and without the need for current public information required by Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable).
Effectiveness of Representations; Survival Each party is entitled to rely on the representations, warranties and agreements of each of the other parties and all such representation, warranties and agreement will be effective regardless of any investigation that any party has undertaken or failed to undertake. Unless otherwise stated in this Agreement, and except for instances of fraud, the representations, warranties and agreements will survive the Closing Date and continue in full force and effect until one (1) year after the Closing Date.
Conclusiveness of Statements; Survival of Provisions Determinations and statements of any Lender pursuant to Sections 8.1, 8.2, 8.3 or 8.4 shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error. Lenders may use reasonable averaging and attribution methods in determining compensation under Sections 8.1 and 8.4, and the provisions of such Sections shall survive repayment of the Obligations, cancellation of any Notes, expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and termination of this Agreement.
Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed originals and shall be binding on all Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. The Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.
Effectiveness of Agreement This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.
