Demand Registration Clause Samples
The Demand Registration clause outlines the process by which shareholders can require a company to register their shares for public sale. Typically, this clause specifies the minimum number of shares needed to trigger the registration, the procedures for making a demand, and any limitations on the frequency or timing of such requests. Its core function is to provide shareholders with a mechanism to achieve liquidity by facilitating the public resale of their shares, thereby addressing the problem of restricted transferability in private companies.

Demand Registration. (a) Subject to the conditions of this Section 2.2, if the Company shall receive a written request from the Holders of at least 20% of the Registrable Securities (the “Initiating Holders”) that the Company file a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the registration of at least 20% of the Registrable Securities then outstanding (or a lesser percent if the anticipated aggregate offering price, net of underwriting discounts and commissions, is at least $5,000,000), then the Company shall, within 30 days of the receipt thereof, give written notice of such request to all Holders, and subject to the limitations of this Section 2.2, effect, as expeditiously as reasonably possible, the registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities that all Holders request to be registered.
(b) If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to this Section 2.2 or any request pursuant to Section 2.4 and the Company shall include such information in the written notice referred to in Section 2.2(a) or Section 2.4(a), as applicable. In such event, the right of any Holder to include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities held by all Initiating Holders (which underwriter or underwriters shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.2 or Section 2.4, if the underwriter advises the Company that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of securities to be underwritten (including Registrable Securities) then the Company shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities that would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of shares that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated to the Holders of such Registrable Securities on a pro rata basis based on the number of Registrable Securities held by all such Holders (including the Initiating Holders); p...
Demand Registration. (a) If at any time the Company is eligible to use a Form S-3 registration statement, the Company receives a request in writing from one or more Restricted Stockholders (“Requesting Restricted Stockholders”) that the Company file a Form S-3 registration statement with respect to outstanding Registrable Securities held by the Requesting Restricted Stockholders having an anticipated aggregate offering price, net of Selling Expenses, of at least five million dollars ($5,000,000.00) (a “Demand Registration Request”), then the Company shall as soon as practicable, and in any event within ninety (90) days after the date the Demand Registration Request is received by the Company, file a Form S-3 registration statement under the Securities Act covering all Restricted Securities requested to be included in such registration by the Requesting Restricted Stockholders, subject to the limitations of Section 4.1(b), 4.1(c), and Section 4.3. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause such Form S-3 registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable after filing. Any registration requested by any Restricted Stockholder pursuant to this Section 4.1 is referred to in this Agreement as a “Demand Registration.”
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing obligations, if the Company furnishes to the applicable Requesting Restricted Stockholders a certificate signed by the Company’s chief executive officer stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such registration statement to either become effective or remain effective for as long as such registration statement otherwise would be required to remain effective, because such action would: (i) materially interfere with a significant acquisition, corporate reorganization, or other similar transaction involving the Company; (ii) require premature disclosure of material information that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential; or (iii) render the Company unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act or Exchange Act, then the Company shall have the right to defer taking action with respect to such filing, and any time periods with respect to filing or effectiveness thereof shall be tolled correspondingly, for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after the Demand Registration Request; provided, however, that the Company may not invoke this right more than once with...

(ii) all other Registrable Securities the holders of which shall have made a written request to the Company for registration thereof within 30 days after the giving of such written notice by the Company (which request shall specify the intended method of disposition of such Registrable Securities); and
(iii) all shares of Common Stock which the Company or Persons entitled to exercise “piggy-back” registration rights pursuant to contractual commitments of the Company may elect to register in connection with the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2.3; all to the extent requisite to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended methods thereof as aforesaid) of the Registrable Securities and the additional shares of Common Stock, if any, so to be registered; provided, that, the provisions of this Section 2.3 shall not require the Company to effect more than two registrations of Registrable Securities.

Upon receipt of a Demand Notice from the Investor pursuant to this Section 3.12(a)(ii), the Company shall promptly (and in any event within thirty (30) days of the date on which the Company receives such Demand Notice) file with the SEC, and the Company shall thereafter use its best efforts to cause to be declared effective as promptly as practicable, a registration statement on the appropriate form for the registration and sale as shall be selected by the Company and as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Investor registering Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution (which may be by an underwritten offering), of the total number of Registrable Securities specified by the Holders in such Demand Notice (a “Demand Registration Statement”). If the Investor registering Registrable Securities intends to distribute any Registrable Securities by means of an underwritten offering, it shall promptly so advise the Company and the Company shall take all reasonable steps to facilitate such distribution, including the actions required pursuant to Section 3.12(c). The managing underwriters in any such distribution shall be acceptable to the Investor registering Registrable Securities in such underwritten offering.

A Demand, which has not culminated in the registration of the requested Registrable Securities, shall not be counted as a Demand for the purposes of this section, unless the reason for such lack of culmination was due to an action of the Initiating Holders.
1.2.2. As soon as practicable after receipt of the Demand, the Company shall promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, qualification or compliance to all other Holders, and shall file a registration statement covering such shares and shall take all actions under its power and control to include in such registration, qualification or compliance all Registrable Securities held by Holders who explicitly expressed their wish to participate in such registration within twenty (20) days after receipt of the Company’s notice.
