Conversion of Notes (a) Upon the conversion of a Note or part thereof, the Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take all necessary action, including obtaining and delivering an opinion of counsel to assure that the Company’s transfer agent shall issue stock certificates in the name of a Subscriber (or its permitted nominee) or such other persons as designated by Subscriber and in such denominations to be specified at conversion representing the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion. The Company warrants that no instructions other than these instructions have been or will be given to the transfer agent of the Company’s Common Stock and that the certificates representing such shares shall contain no legend other than the legend set forth in Section 4(h). If and when a Subscriber sells the Conversion Shares, assuming (i) a registration statement including such Conversion Shares for registration has been filed with the Commission, is effective and the prospectus, as supplemented or amended, contained therein is current and (ii) Subscriber or its agent confirms in writing to the transfer agent that Subscriber has complied with the prospectus delivery requirements, the Company will reissue the Conversion Shares without restrictive legend and the Conversion Shares will be free-trading, and freely transferable. In the event that the Conversion Shares are sold in a manner that complies with an exemption from registration, the Company will promptly instruct its counsel to issue to the transfer agent an opinion permitting removal of the legend indefinitely if such sale is intended to be made in conformity with Rule 144(b)(1)(i) of the 1933 Act, or for 90 days if pursuant to the other provisions of Rule 144 of the 1933 Act, provided that Subscriber delivers reasonably requested representations in support of such opinion.
(b) Each Subscriber will give notice of its decision to exercise its right to convert its Note, interest, or part thereof by telecopying, or otherwise delivering a completed Notice of Conversion (a form of which is annexed as Exhibit A to the Note) to the Company via confirmed telecopier transmission or otherwise pursuant to Section 13(a) of this Agreement. Subscriber will not be required to surrender the Note until the Note has been fully converted or satisfied. Each date on which a Notice of Conversion is telecopied to the Company in accordance with the provisions hereof by 6 PM Eastern Time (“ET”) (or if received by the Company after 6 PM ET, then the next business day) shall be deemed a “Conversion Date.” The Company will itself or cause the Company’s transfer agent to transmit the Company’s Common Stock certificates representing the Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of the Note to Subscriber via express courier for receipt by Subscriber within three days after the Conversion Date (such third day being the “Delivery Date”). In the event the Conversion Shares are electronically transferable, then delivery of the Shares must be made by electronic transfer provided request for such electronic transfer has been made by the Subscriber. A Note representing the balance of the Note not so converted will be provided by the Company to Subscriber if requested by Subscriber, provided Subscriber delivers the original Note to the Company.
(c) The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Conversion Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof later than the Delivery Date could result in economic loss to the Subscribers. As compensation to Subscribers for such loss, the Company agrees to pay (as liquidated damages and not as a penalty) to each applicable Subscriber for late issuance of Conversion Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof upon Conversion of the Note, the amount of $100 per business day after the Delivery Date for each $10,000 of Note principal amount and interest (and proportionately for other amounts) being converted of the corresponding Conversion Shares which are not timely delivered. The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section upon demand. Furthermore, in addition to any other remedies which may be available to the Subscribers, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Conversion Shares on or before the Delivery Date, the Subscriber will be entitled to revoke all or part of the relevant Notice of Conversion by delivery of a notice to such effect to the Company whereupon the Company and Subscriber shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to the delivery of such notice, except that the damages payable in connection with the Company’s default shall be payable through the date notice of revocation or rescission is given to the Company.
Conversion of Debentures Section 16.01.
Conversion of Note (a) Upon the conversion of the Note or part thereof, the Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take all necessary action (including the issuance of an opinion of counsel) to assure that the Company's transfer agent shall issue stock certificates in the name of Subscriber (or its nominee) or such other persons as designated by Subscriber and in such denominations to be specified at conversion representing the number of shares of common stock issuable upon such conversion. The Company warrants that no instructions other than these instructions have been or will be given to the transfer agent of the Company's Common Stock and that the Shares will be unlegended, free-trading, and freely transferable, and will not contain a legend restricting the resale or transferability of the Company Shares provided the Shares are being sold pursuant to an effective registration statement covering the Shares to be sold or are otherwise exempt from registration when sold.
(b) Subscriber will give notice of its decision to exercise its right to convert the Note or part thereof by telecopying an executed and completed Notice of Conversion (as defined in the Note) to the Company via confirmed telecopier transmission. The Subscriber will not be required to surrender the Note until the Note has been fully converted or satisfied. Each date on which a Notice of Conversion is telecopied to the Company in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be deemed a Conversion Date. The Company will or cause the transfer agent to transmit the Company's Common Stock certificates representing the Shares issuable upon conversion of the Note to the Subscriber via express courier for receipt by such Subscriber within three (3) business days after receipt by the Company of the Notice of Conversion (the "Delivery Date"). A Note representing the balance of the Note not so converted will be provided to the Subscriber, if requested by Subscriber. To the extent that a Subscriber elects not to surrender a Note for reissuance upon partial payment or conversion, the Subscriber hereby indemnifies the Company against any and all loss or damage attributable to a third-party claim in an amount in excess of the actual amount then due under the Note.
(c) The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 9 hereof, or the Mandatory Redemption Amount described in Section 9.2 hereof, beyond the Delivery Date or Mandatory Redemption Payment Date (as hereinafter defined) could result in economic loss to the Subscriber. As compensation to the Subscriber for such loss, the Company agrees to pay late payments to the Subscriber for late issuance of Shares in the form required pursuant to Section 9 hereof upon Conversion of the Note or late payment of the Mandatory Redemption Amount, in the amount of $100 per business day after the Delivery Date or Mandatory Redemption Payment Date, as the case may be, for each $10,000 of Note principal amount being converted or redeemed. The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand. Furthermore, in addition to any other remedies which may be available to the Subscriber, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Shares by the Delivery Date or make payment by the Mandatory Redemption Payment Date, the Subscriber will be entitled to revoke all or part of the relevant Notice of Conversion or rescind all or part of the notice of Mandatory Redemption by delivery of a notice to such effect to the Company whereupon the Company and the Subscriber shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to the delivery of such notice, except that late payment charges described above shall be payable through the date notice of revocation or rescission is given to the Company.
(d) Nothing contained herein or in any document referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest or dividends required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum permitted by such law, any payments in excess of such maximum shall be credited against amounts owed by the Company to the Subscriber and thus refunded to the Company.
Conversion of Preferred Stock If the Class is a class and series of the Company’s convertible preferred stock, in the event that all outstanding shares of the Class are converted, automatically or by action of the holders thereof, into common stock pursuant to the provisions of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, including, without limitation, in connection with the Company’s initial, underwritten public offering and sale of its common stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act (the “IPO”), then from and after the date on which all outstanding shares of the Class have been so converted, this Warrant shall be exercisable for such number of shares of common stock into which the Shares would have been converted had the Shares been outstanding on the date of such conversion, and the Warrant Price shall equal the Warrant Price in effect as of immediately prior to such conversion divided by the number of shares of common stock into which one Share would have been converted, all subject to further adjustment thereafter from time to time in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant.
Conversion The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall have conversion rights as follows:
A. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be convertible at the direction of, and by notice to the Corporation from, the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, at any time, at the office of the Corporation or any transfer agent for such Series, into one thousand (1,000) fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock subject (x) to adjustment from time to time as provided below (as so adjusted, the "conversion ratio") and (y) (prior to the consummation of the Recapitalization) to limitations resulting from the available number of shares of Common Stock which may be reserved for issuance upon such conversion, provided ,that any conversion pursuant to this paragraph A of less than all of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be on a pro rata basis amongst all holders of Series B Preferred Stock. After consummation of the Recapitalization, the number "1,000" in this paragraph shall be "1", subject to adjustment as provided in paragraph VIII.G.
B. If the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock give notice of conversion under paragraph A above, the Corporation shall notify all other record holders of Series B Preferred Stock (a "Conversion Notice"). Following receipt of a Conversion Notice, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall surrender the certificate or certificates therefor duly endorsed, at the office of the Corporation or of any transfer agent for such Series, and shall state therein the name or names in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock are to be issued. The Corporation shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, issue and deliver at such office to such holder, or to the nominee or nominees of such holder, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled as aforesaid. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such Conversion Notice and the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the recordholder or holders of such shares of Common Stock as of such date. The issuance of certificates or shares of Common Stock upon conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be made without charge for any issue, stamp or other similar tax in respect of such issuance.
C. No fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock and the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share, and the holder of Series B Preferred Stock shall be paid in cash for any fractional share.
D. In case at any time or from time to time the Corporation shall pay any dividend or make any other distribution to the holders of its Common Stock or other class of securities, or shall offer for subscription pro rata to the holders of its Common Stock or other class of securities any additional shares of stock of any class or any other right, or there shall be any capital reorganization or reclassification of the Common Stock of the Corporation or consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into another corporation, or any sale or conveyance to another corporation of the property of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, or there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Corporation, then, in any one or more of said cases the Corporation shall give at least 20 days' prior written notice (the time of mailing of such notice shall be deemed to be the time of giving thereof) to the registered holders of the Series B Preferred Stock at the addresses of each as shown on the books of the Corporation maintained by the Transfer Agent thereof of the date on which (i) the books of the Corporation shall close or a record shall be taken for such stock dividend, distribution or subscription rights or (ii) such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or winding up shall take place, as the case may be, provided that in the case of any Transaction to which paragraph H applies the Corporation shall give at least 30 days' prior written notice as aforesaid. Such notice shall also specify the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record shall participate in said dividend, distribution or subscription rights or shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance or participate in such dissolution, liquidation or winding up, as the case may be. Failure to give such notice shall not invalidate any action so taken.
E. From and after the Recapitalization, the Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock, such number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, then in addition to such other remedies as shall be availableto the holder of Series B Preferred Stock, the Corporation will take such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purposes.
F. Any notice required by the provisions of paragraph D to be given the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be deemed given if sent by facsimile transmission, by telex, or if deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, and addressed to each holder of record at his, her or its address appearing on the books of the Corporation.
G. The conversion ratio shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:
(i) In case the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date (A) pay a dividend or make a distribution, on the outstanding shares of Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (B) subdivide the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, (C) combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (D) issue by reclassification of the shares of Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Corporation, then, and in each such case, the conversion ratio in effect immediately prior to such event or the record date therefor, whichever is earlier, shall be adjusted so that the holder of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Corporation which such holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of the events described above, had such shares of Series B Preferred Stock been surrendered for conversion immediately prior to the happening of such event or the record date therefor, whichever is earlier. An adjustment made pursuant to this clause (i) shall become effective (x) in the case of any such dividend or distribution, immediately after the close of business on the record date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend or distribution, or (y) in the case of any such subdivision, reclassification or combination, at the close of business on the day upon which such corporate action becomes effective.
(ii) In the case the Corporation shall, after the Issue Date, issue shares of Common Stock at a price per share, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock ("Convertible Securities") having a "Conversion Price" (as defined below) less than the Current Market Price (for a period of 15 consecutive trading days prior to such date), then, and in each such case, the conversion ratio shall be adjusted so that the holder of each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, upon the conversion thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock determined by multiplying (A) the applicable conversion ratio on the day immediately prior to such date by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the date on which such shares or Convertible Securities are issued and (2) the number of additional shares of Common Stock issued, or into which the Convertible Securities may convert, and the denominator of which shall be the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date and (y) the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration receivable by the Corporation for the total number of shares of Common Stock so issued, or the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate of the Conversion Price of such Convertible Securities so issued, would purchase at such Current Market price on such date. An adjustment made pursuant to this clause (ii) shall be made on the next Business Day following the date on which any such issuance is made and shall be effective retroactively immediately after the close of business on such date. For purposes of this clause (ii), the aggregate consideration receivable by the Corporation in connection with the issuance of any securities shall be deemed to be the sum of the aggregate offering price to the public (before deduction of underwriting discounts or commissions and expenses payable to third parties), and the "Conversion Price" of any Convertible Securities is the total amount received or receivable by the Corporation as consideration for the issue or sale of such Convertible Securities (before deduction of underwriting discounts or commissions and expenses payable to third parties) plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Corporation upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of any such Convertible Securities. Neither (A) the issuance of any shares of Common Stock (whether treasury shares or newly issued shares) pursuant to a dividend or distribution on, or subdivision, combination or reclassification of, the outstanding shares of Common Stock requiring an adjustment in the conversion ratio pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph G, or pursuant to any employee benefit plan or program of the Corporation or pursuant to any option, warrant, right, or Convertible Security outstanding as of the date hereof (including, but not limited to, the Rights, the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series C Preferred Stock and the Warrants) nor (B) the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant thereto shall be deemed to constitute an issuance of Common Stock or Convertible Securities by the Corporation to which this clause (ii) applies. Upon expiration of any Convertible Securities which shall not have been exercised or converted and for which an adjustment shall have been made pursuant to this clause (ii), the Conversion Price computed upon the original issue thereof shall upon expiration be recomputed as if the only additional shares of Common Stock issued were such shares of Common Stock (if any) actually issued upon exercise or conversion of such Convertible Securities and the consideration received therefor was the consideration actually received by the Corporation for the issue of such Convertible Securities (whether or not exercised or converted) plus the consideration actually received by the Corporation upon such exercise of conversion.
(iii) In case the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date declare, order, pay or make a dividend or other distribution (including, without limitation, any distribution of stock or other securities or property or rights or warrants to subscribe for securities of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries by way of dividend or spin-off), on its Common Stock, other than (A) regular quarterly dividends payable in cash in an aggregate amount not to exceed 15% of net income from continuing operations before extraordinary items of the Corporation, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, during the period (treated as one accounting period) commencing on July 1, 1998, and ending on the date such dividend is paid or (B) dividends or distributions of shares of Common Stock which are referred to in clause (i) of this paragraph G, then, and in each such case, the conversion ratio shall be adjusted so that the holder of each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, upon the conversion thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock determined by multiplying (1) the applicable conversion ratio on the day immediately prior to the record date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution by (2) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the then Current Market Price per share of Common Stock for the period of 20 Trading Days preceding such record date, and the denominator of which shall be such Current Market Price per share of Common Stock for the period of 20 Trading Days preceding such record date, less the Fair Market Value (as defined in Article IX) per share of Common Stock (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, a certified resolution with respect to which shall be mailed to each holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock) of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that in the event of a distribution of shares of capital stock of a Subsidiary of the Corporation (a "Spin-Off") made to holders of shares of Common Stock, the numerator of such fraction shall be the sum of the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock for the period of 20 Trading Days preceding the 35th Trading Day after the effective date of such Spin-Off and the Current Market Price of the number of shares (or the fraction of a share) of capital stock of the Subsidiary which is distributed in such Spin-Off in respect of one share of Common Stock for the period of 20 Trading Days preceding such 35th Trading Day and the denominator of which shall be the current market price per share of the Common Stock for the period of 20 Trading Days proceeding such 35th Trading Day. An adjustment made pursuant to this clause (iii) shall be made upon the opening of business on the next Business Day following the date on which any such dividend or distribution is made and shall be effective retroactively immediately after the close of business on the record date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution; provided, however, if the proviso to the preceding sentence applies, then such adjustment shall be made and be effective as of such 35th Trading Day after the effective date of such Spin-Off.
(iv) For purposes of this paragraph G, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include any shares of Common Stock then owned or held by or for the account of the Corporation.
Conversion of Preferred Shares If, at any time, any of the Preferred Shares are converted into REIT Shares, in whole or in part, then a number of Partnership Preferred Units equal to the number of Preferred Shares so converted shall automatically be converted into a number of Partnership Common Units equal to (i) the number of REIT Shares issued upon such conversion divided by (ii) the Adjustment Factor then in effect, and the Percentage Interests of the General Partner and the Limited Partners shall be adjusted to reflect such conversion.
Conversion of Loans Borrower may convert any Revolving Loan from one Type of Revolving Loan to another Type; provided, however, that (i) any conversion of LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans shall be made on, and only on, the first day after the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBOR Loans, and (ii) Loans shall be converted only in amounts of $5,000,000 and increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Borrower shall request such a conversion by a written notice to Administrative Agent in the form of Exhibit E-2, appropriately completed (a “Notice of Conversion of Loan Type”), which specifies:
(a) the Revolving Loans, or portion thereof, which are to be converted;
(b) the Type into which such Revolving Loans, or portion thereof, are to be converted;
(c) if such Revolving Loans are to be converted into LIBOR Loans, the initial Interest Period selected by Borrower for such Loans in accordance with Section 2.1.2.4(b); and
(d) the date of the requested conversion, which shall be a Banking Day. Borrower shall give each Notice of Conversion of Loan Type to Administrative Agent so as to provide at least the applicable Minimum Notice Period. Any Notice of Conversion of Loan Type may be modified or revoked by Borrower through the Banking Day prior to the Minimum Notice Period, and shall thereafter be irrevocable. Each Notice of Conversion of Loan Type shall be delivered by first-class mail or telecopy to Administrative Agent at the office or to the telecopy number and as otherwise specified in Section 8.1; provided, however, that Borrower shall promptly deliver to Administrative Agent the original of any Notice of Conversion of Loan Type initially delivered by telecopy. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the contents of each Notice of Conversion of Loan Type.
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.
Conversion Shares Issuable Upon Conversion of Principal Amount The number of Conversion Shares issuable upon a conversion hereunder shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture to be converted by (y) the Conversion Price.
Optional Conversion of Advances Each Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.10 and 2.14, Convert all or any part of Advances made to such Borrower of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Advances of the other Type or of the same Type but having a new Interest Period; provided, however, that any Conversion of Eurodollar Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Advances, any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section 2.02(b) and no Conversion of any Advances shall result in more separate Borrowings than permitted under Section 2.02(b). Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Advances to be Converted, and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurodollar Rate Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Advance. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the applicable Borrower. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, which may not be Converted.
