Delivery of Placement Shares On or before each Settlement Date, the Company will, or will cause its transfer agent to, electronically transfer the Placement Shares being sold by crediting the Agent’s or its designee’s account (provided the Agent shall have given the Company written notice of such designee at least one Trading Day prior to the Settlement Date) at The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit and Withdrawal at Custodian System or by such other means of delivery as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto which in all cases shall be freely tradable, transferable, registered shares in good deliverable form. On each Settlement Date, the Agent will deliver the related Net Proceeds in same day funds to an account designated by the Company on, or prior to, the Settlement Date. The Company agrees that if the Company, or its transfer agent (if applicable), defaults in its obligation to deliver Placement Shares on a Settlement Date, the Company agrees that in addition to and in no way limiting the rights and obligations set forth in Section 10(a) hereto, it will (i) hold the Agent harmless against any loss, claim, damage, or expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses), as incurred, arising out of or in connection with such default by the Company or its transfer agent (if applicable) and (ii) pay to the Agent any commission, discount, or other compensation to which it would otherwise have been entitled absent such default.
DATE OF DELIVERY OF PUT NOTICE A Put Notice shall be deemed delivered on (i) the Trading Day it is received by facsimile or otherwise by Investor if such notice is received on or prior to 12:00 noon New York time, or (ii) the immediately succeeding Trading Day if it is received by facsimile or otherwise after 12:00 noon New York time on a Trading Day or at anytime on a day which is not a Trading Day.
Delivery of Share Certificates Within a reasonable time after the exercise of the Option the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Optionee, his or her legal representative or his or her beneficiary, a certificate for the Shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Option.
Delivery of Shares Delivery of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Option will comply with all applicable laws (including the requirements of the Securities Act) and the applicable requirements of any securities exchange or similar entity.
Delivery of Option Shares The Company shall deliver a certificate for the Option Shares to the Employee as soon as practicable after payment therefor.
Delivery of Common Stock Subject to the terms of the Plan and Section 6 below, if the Performance RSUs awarded by this Agreement become vested, the Company shall promptly distribute to Employee the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of the Performance RSUs that so vested; provided that to the extent required by Code Section 409A, delivery of shares of Common Stock upon a Participant’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A shall be deferred until the six month anniversary of such separation from service. In connection with the delivery of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement, the Participant agrees to execute any documents reasonably requested by the Company and provide therein customary representations and warranties related to the receipt of such shares of Common Stock.
Delivery of Unlegended Shares (a) Within seven business days (such seventh business day being the “Unlegended Shares Delivery Date”) after the business day on which the Company has received (i) a notice that Shares or Warrant Shares, or any other Common Stock held by a Subscriber have been sold pursuant to a registration statement, if any, or Rule 144, (ii) a representation that the prospectus delivery requirements, or the requirements of Rule 144, as applicable and if required, have been satisfied, (iii) the original share certificates representing the shares of Common Stock that have been sold, and (iv) in the case of sales under Rule 144, customary representation letters of the Subscriber and/or a Subscriber’s broker regarding compliance with the requirements of Rule 144, the Company at its expense, (y) shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel selected by the Company to deliver to its transfer agent (with copies to Subscriber) an appropriate instruction and opinion of such counsel, directing the delivery of shares of Common Stock without any legends including the legend set forth in Section 4(i) above (the “Unlegended Shares”); and (z) cause the transmission of the certificates representing the Unlegended Shares together with a legended certificate representing the balance of the submitted certificate, if any, to the Subscriber at the address specified in the notice of sale, via express courier, by electronic transfer or otherwise on or before the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date. In the event that the Shares are sold in a manner that complies with an exemption from registration, the Company will promptly instruct its counsel to issue to the Company’s transfer agent an opinion permitting removal of the legend indefinitely if pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1).
(b) In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Unlegended Shares, upon request of a Subscriber, so long as the certificates therefor do not bear a legend and the Subscriber is not obligated to return such certificate for the placement of a legend thereon, the Company will cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Unlegended Shares by crediting the account of Subscriber’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system, if such transfer agent participates in such DWAC system. Such delivery must be made on or before the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date.
(c) The Company understands that a delay in the delivery of the Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 11 hereof later than the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date could result in economic loss to a Subscriber. As compensation to a Subscriber for such loss, the Company agrees to pay late payment fees (as liquidated damages and not as a penalty) to the Subscriber for late delivery of Unlegended Shares in the amount of $100 per business day after the Delivery Date for each $10,000 of purchase price of the Unlegended Shares subject to the delivery default. In the event damages are payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence, then the Subscriber may elect to receive liquidated damages under this Section 11.1(c) or Section 12(g) below. If during any 360 day period, the Company fails to deliver Unlegended Shares as required by this Section 11.1 for an aggregate of 30 days, then each Subscriber or assignee holding Securities subject to such default may, at its option, require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Shares and Warrant Shares subject to such default at a price per share equal to the greater of (i) 120%, or (ii) a fraction in which the numerator is the highest closing price of the Common Stock during the aforedescribed 30 day period and the denominator of which is the purchase price of the Shares or exercise price of such Warrant Shares during such 30 day period, multiplied by the purchase price of the Shares or exercise price of such Warrant Shares (“Unlegended Redemption Amount”). The Company shall pay any payments incurred under this Section in immediately available funds upon demand.
(d) In addition to any other rights available to a Subscriber, if the Company fails to deliver to a Subscriber Unlegended Shares as required pursuant to this Agreement, within three business days after the Unlegended Shares Delivery Date and the Subscriber or a broker on the Subscriber’s behalf, purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of common stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Subscriber of the shares of Common Stock which the Subscriber was entitled to receive from the Company (a "Buy-In"), then the Company shall pay in cash to the Subscriber (in addition to any remedies available to or elected by the Subscriber) the amount by which (A) the Subscriber's total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (B) the aggregate purchase price of the shares of Common Stock delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares together with interest thereon at a rate of 15% per annum accruing until such amount and any accrued interest thereon is paid in full (which amount shall be paid as liquidated damages and not as a penalty). For example, if a Subscriber purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to $10,000 of purchase price of shares of Common Stock delivered to the Company for reissuance as Unlegended Shares, the Company shall be required to pay the Subscriber $1,000, plus interest. The Subscriber shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Subscriber in respect of the Buy-In.
(e) In the event a Subscriber shall request delivery of Unlegended Shares as described in Section 11.1 or Warrant Shares upon exercise of Warrants and the Company is required to deliver such Unlegended Shares pursuant to Section 11.1 or the Warrant Shares pursuant to the Warrant, the Company may not refuse to deliver Unlegended Shares or Warrant Shares based on any claim that such Subscriber or any one associated or affiliated with such Subscriber has been engaged in any violation of law, or for any other reason, unless, an injunction or temporary restraining order from a court, on notice, restraining and or enjoining delivery of such Unlegended Shares or exercise of all or part of said Warrant shall have been sought and obtained by the Company or at the Company’s request or with the Company’s assistance, and the Company has posted a surety bond for the benefit of such Subscriber in the amount of 120% of the amount of the aggregate purchase price of the Shares and Warrant Shares which are subject to the injunction or temporary restraining order, which bond shall remain in effect until the final unappealable disposition of the litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Subscriber to the extent Subscriber obtains judgment in Subscriber’s favor.
Delivery of Merger Consideration (a) As soon as practicable, but in no event later than fifteen business days, after the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of record of one or more Certificates a letter of transmittal in customary form as reasonably agreed by the parties (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent) and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for certificates representing the shares of Fifth Third Common Stock and any cash in lieu of fractional shares into which the shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock represented by such Certificate or Certificates shall have been converted pursuant to this Agreement. Upon proper surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Certificate or Certificates for exchange and cancellation, together with such properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal, the holder of such Certificate or Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, as applicable, (i) a certificate representing that number of whole shares of Fifth Third Common Stock to which such holder of First National Bankshares Common Stock shall have become entitled pursuant to the provisions of Article I and (ii) a check representing the sum of the amount of any cash in lieu of fractional shares which such holder has the right to receive in respect of the Certificate or Certificates surrendered pursuant to the provisions of this Article II, and the Certificate or Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. No interest will be paid or accrued on any cash in lieu of fractional shares or on any unpaid dividends and distributions payable to holders of Certificates.
(b) No dividends or other distributions declared after the Effective Time with respect to Fifth Third Common Stock shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate until the holder thereof shall surrender such Certificate in accordance with this Article II. After the surrender of a Certificate in accordance with this Article II, the record holder thereof shall be entitled to receive any such dividends or other distributions, without any interest thereon, which theretofore had become payable with respect to shares of Fifth Third Common Stock represented by such Certificate.
(c) If any certificate representing shares of Fifth Third Common Stock is to be issued in a name other than that in which the Certificate or Certificates surrendered in exchange therefor is or are registered, it shall be a condition of the issuance thereof that the Certificate or Certificates so surrendered shall be properly endorsed (or accompanied by an appropriate instrument of transfer) and otherwise in proper form for transfer, and that the person requesting such exchange shall pay to the Exchange Agent in advance any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of a certificate representing shares of Fifth Third Common Stock in any name other than that of the registered holder of the Certificate or Certificates surrendered, or required for any other reason, or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not payable.
(d) After the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of First National Bankshares of the shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, certificates representing such shares are presented for transfer to the Exchange Agent, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for certificates representing shares of Fifth Third Common Stock and Cash Consideration as provided in this Article II.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Fifth Third Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates, no dividend or distribution with respect to Fifth Third Common Stock shall be payable on or with respect to any fractional share, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a shareholder of Fifth Third. In lieu of the issuance of any such fractional share, Fifth Third shall pay to each former shareholder of First National Bankshares who otherwise would be entitled to receive such fractional share an amount in cash determined by multiplying (i) the average of the closing-sale prices of Fifth Third Common Stock on the securities market or stock exchange in which the Fifth Third Common Stock principally trades, as reported by The Wall Street Journal for the ten consecutive trading days ending on the fifth trading day immediately preceding the date of the Effective Time by (ii) the fraction of a share (rounded to the nearest thousandth when expressed in decimal form) of Fifth Third Common Stock to which such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to Section 1.4.
(f) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the shareholders of First National Bankshares as of the first anniversary of the Effective Time shall be paid to Fifth Third. Any former shareholders of First National Bankshares who have not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to Fifth Third for payment of the shares of Fifth Third Common Stock and cash in lieu of any fractional shares and any unpaid dividends and distributions on the Fifth Third Common Stock deliverable in respect of each share of First National Bankshares Common Stock such shareholder holds as determined pursuant to this Agreement, in each case, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of First National Bankshares, Fifth Third, the Exchange Agent or any other person shall be liable to any former holder of shares of First National Bankshares Common Stock for any amount delivered in good faith to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws.
(g) In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if reasonably required by Fifth Third, the posting by such person of a bond in such amount as Fifth Third may determine is reasonably necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the shares of Fifth Third Common Stock and any cash in lieu of fractional shares deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement.
Delivery of Consideration (a) Promptly after the Exchange Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of record of Company Virginia Sub Certificate(s) which immediately prior to the Exchange Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Virginia Sub Common Stock whose shares were exchanged for the right to receive the Consideration pursuant to Section 2.4 and any cash in lieu of fractional Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form or receipts representing Parent ADSs to be issued or paid in consideration therefor who did not properly complete and submit an Election Form, (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to Certificate(s) shall pass, only upon delivery of Company Virginia Sub Certificate(s) (or affidavits of loss in lieu of such Certificate(s))) (the “Letter of Transmittal”) to the Exchange Agent and shall be substantially in such form and have such other provisions as shall be prescribed by the Exchange Agent Agreement and (ii) instructions for use in surrendering Certificate(s) in exchange for the Consideration and any cash in lieu of fractional Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form or receipts representing Parent ADSs to be issued or paid in consideration therefor in accordance with Section 2.3(f) upon surrender of such Company Virginia Sub Certificate. Subject to the proviso to the last sentence of Section 2.4(a)(iv), the Letter of Transmittal shall also contain instructions for electing to effect the surrender of Company Virginia Sub Certificates in exchange for or Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form in lieu of ADSs.
(b) Upon surrender to the Exchange Agent of its Company Virginia Sub Certificate(s), accompanied by a properly completed Form of Election or a properly completed Letter of Transmittal, a holder of Company Virginia Sub Common Stock will be entitled to receive, promptly after the Exchange Effective Time, the Consideration (elected or deemed elected by it, subject to, and in accordance with Sections 2.4 and 2.5) and any cash in lieu of fractional Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form or receipts representing Parent ADSs to be issued or paid in consideration therefor in respect of the shares of Company Virginia Sub Common Stock represented by Company Virginia Sub Certificate(s). Until so surrendered, each such Company Virginia Sub Certificate shall represent after the Exchange Effective Time, for all purposes, only the right to receive, without interest, the Consideration and any cash in lieu of fractional Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form and receipts representing Parent ADSs to be issued or paid in consideration therefor upon surrender of such Company Virginia Sub Certificate in accordance with, and any dividends or distributions to which such holder is entitled pursuant to, this Article III.
(c) No dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form or receipts representing Parent ADSs shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Company Virginia Sub Certificate with respect to the Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form or receipts representing Parent ADSs represented thereby, in each case unless and until the surrender of such Company Virginia Sub Certificate in accordance with this Article III. Subject to the effect of applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws, following surrender of any such Company Virginia Sub Certificate in accordance with this Article III, the record holder thereof shall be entitled to receive, without interest, (i) the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Exchange Effective Time theretofore payable with respect to the whole Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form or receipts representing Parent ADSs represented by such Company Virginia Sub Certificate and not paid and/or (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions payable with respect to Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form or receipts representing Parent ADSs represented by such Company Virginia Sub Certificate with a record date after the Exchange Effective Time (but before such surrender date) and with a payment date subsequent to the issuance of the Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form or receipts representing Parent ADSs issuable with respect to such Company Virginia Sub Certificate.
(d) In the event of a transfer of ownership of a Company Virginia Sub Certificate representing Company Virginia Sub Common Stock that is not registered in the stock transfer records of Company Virginia Sub, the proper amount of cash and/or Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form or receipts representing Parent ADSs shall be paid or issued in exchange therefor to a person other than the person in whose name the Company Virginia Sub Certificate so surrendered is registered if the Company Virginia Sub Certificate formerly representing such Company Virginia Sub Common Stock shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such payment or issuance shall pay any transfer or other similar Taxes required by reason of the payment or issuance to a person other than the registered holder of the Company Virginia Sub Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of Parent that the Tax has been paid or is not applicable. The Exchange Agent (or, subsequent to the earlier of (x) the one-year anniversary of the Exchange Effective Time and (y) the expiration or termination of the Exchange Agent Agreement, Parent) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any cash portion of the Consideration, any cash in lieu of fractional Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form or receipts representing Parent ADSs, cash dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.3(c) hereof and any other cash amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Company Virginia Sub Common Stock such amounts as the Exchange Agent or Parent, as the case may be, is required to deduct and withhold under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax law, with respect to the making of such payment. To the extent the amounts are so withheld by the Exchange Agent or Parent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of shares of Company Virginia Sub Common Stock in respect of whom such deduction and withholding was made by the Exchange Agent or Parent, as the case may be.
(e) After the Exchange Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of Company Virginia Sub of any shares of Company Virginia Sub Common Stock that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Exchange Effective Time other than to settle transfers of Company Virginia Sub Common Stock that occurred prior to the Exchange Effective Time. If, after the Exchange Effective Time, Company Virginia Sub Certificates representing such shares are presented for transfer to the Exchange Agent, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Consideration and any cash in lieu of fractional Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form or receipts representing Parent ADSs to be issued or paid in consideration therefor in accordance with Section 2.5 and the procedures set forth in this Article III.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no certificates or scrip representing fractional Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form or receipts representing Parent ADSs shall be issued upon the surrender of Company Virginia Sub Certificates for exchange, no dividend or distribution with respect to Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form or receipts representing Parent ADSs shall be payable on or with respect to any fractional share, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a holder of Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form or receipts representing Parent ADSs. In lieu of the issuance of any such fractional share, Parent shall pay to each former stockholder of Company Virginia Sub who otherwise would be entitled to receive such fractional share, an amount in cash (rounded to the nearest whole cent) determined by multiplying (i) the Parent Closing Price by (ii) the fraction of a share (after taking into account all shares of Company Virginia Sub Common Stock held by such holder at the Exchange Effective Time and rounded to the nearest one thousandth when expressed in decimal form) of Parent Ordinary Shares to which such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.4.
(g) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the stockholders of Company Virginia Sub as of the one-year anniversary of the Exchange Effective Time shall be paid to Parent. Any former stockholders of Company Virginia Sub who have not theretofore complied with this Article III shall thereafter look only to Parent with respect to the Consideration, any cash in lieu of any fractional shares and any unpaid dividends and distributions on the Parent Ordinary Shares in account entry form or receipts representing Parent ADSs deliverable in respect of each share of Company Virginia Sub Common Stock such stockholder holds as determined pursuant to this Agreement, in each case, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Parent, Company Virginia Sub, the Exchange Agent or any other person shall be liable to any former holder of shares of Company Virginia Sub Common Stock for any amount delivered in good faith to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws.
(h) In the event any Company Virginia Sub Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Company Virginia Sub Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if reasonably required by Parent or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such person of a bond in such amount as Parent may determine is reasonably necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Company Virginia Sub Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Virginia Sub Certificate the Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement.
(i) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if Parent so elects prior to the Exchange Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall aggregate all fractional interests in Parent Ordinary Shares and sell all such shares, in one or more transactions executed on the NYSE through one or more brokers nominated by Parent with the proceeds of such sale being remitted to the Exchange Agent as soon as practicable thereafter. The Exchange Agent shall deliver the cash proceeds of any such sales to former holders of shares of Company Virginia Sub Common Stock in lieu of their fractional interest in Parent Ordinary Shares or Parent ADSs. The proceeds to any holder of shares of Company Virginia Common Stock sold by the Exchange Agent pursuant to this Section 3.3(i) shall be the proceeds before any costs associated with any such sale, and any costs incurred in connection with any such sale (including any commissions, transfer taxes and other transaction costs) shall be borne by Parent.
Delivery of Share Certificates for Escrow Securities The Escrow Agent will send to each Securityholder any share certificates or other evidence of that Securityholder’s escrow securities in the possession of the Escrow Agent released from escrow as soon as reasonably practicable after the release.
