IPO Registration Statement IPO Registration Statement" means the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-48038) of Resources filed with the Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, registering the shares of Resources Common Stock to be issued in the IPO, together with all amendments thereto.
Demand Registration At any time that the shelf registration statement required pursuant to Section 5.1 shall not be available for the resale of the Registrable Securities, including if for any reason the Company shall be ineligible to maintain or use a shelf registration statement, the Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable following the written request of a Requesting Stockholder for registration under the Securities Act of all or part of the Registrable Securities (a “Demand Request”), file a registration statement with the SEC (a “Demand Registration Statement”) with respect to resales of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the Requesting Stockholder’s intended method of distribution thereof, and shall, subject to the terms of this Article V, use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Demand Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act promptly after the filing thereof; provided that such Demand Registration Statement shall be filed on (a) Form S-3, if the Company is then S-3 Eligible, or (b) any other appropriate form under the Securities Act for the type of offering contemplated by the Requesting Stockholder, if the Company is not then S-3 Eligible. Each Demand Request shall specify the Registrable Securities to be registered, their aggregate amount, and the intended method or methods of distribution thereof. The Requesting Stockholder agrees to provide the Company with such information in connection with a Demand Request as may be reasonably requested by the Company to ensure that the Demand Registration Statement complies with the requirements of the Securities Act.
New Registration Statement Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this Section 2.1, in the event the Commission informs the Company that all of the Registrable Securities cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, the Company agrees to promptly (i) inform each of the holders thereof and use its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the Shelf Registration as required by the Commission and/or (ii) withdraw the Shelf Registration and file a new registration statement (a “New Registration Statement”), on Form S-3, or if Form S-3 is not then available to the Company for such registration statement, on such other form available to register for resale the Registrable Securities as a secondary offering; provided, however, that prior to filing such amendment or New Registration Statement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with any publicly-available written or oral guidance, comments, requirements or requests of the Commission staff (the “SEC Guidance”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation of the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that the Company used commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all or a greater number of Registrable Securities), unless otherwise directed in writing by a Holder as to its Registrable Securities to register a lesser amount of Registrable Securities, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities held by the Holders. In the event the Company amends the Shelf Registration or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by Commission or SEC Guidance provided to the Company or to registrants of securities in general, one or more registration statements on Form S-3 or such other form available to register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not registered for resale on the Shelf Registration, as amended, or the New Registration Statement.
Additional Registration Statements Until the Applicable Date (as defined below) and at any time thereafter while any Registration Statement is not effective or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use or any Current Public Information Failure (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) exists, the Company shall not file a registration statement or an offering statement under the 1933 Act relating to securities that are not the Registrable Securities (other than a registration statement on Form S-8 or such supplements or amendments to registration statements that are outstanding and have been declared effective by the SEC as of the date hereof (solely to the extent necessary to keep such registration statements effective and available and not with respect to any Subsequent Placement)). “Applicable Date” means the earlier of (x) the first date on which the resale by the Buyers of all the Registrable Securities required to be filed on the initial Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement is declared effective by the SEC (and each prospectus contained therein is available for use on such date) or (y) the first date on which all of the Registrable Securities are eligible to be resold by the Buyers pursuant to Rule 144 (or, if a Current Public Information Failure has occurred and is continuing, such later date after which the Company has cured such Current Public Information Failure).
Rule 462(b) Registration Statement In the event that a Rule 462(b) Registration Statement is filed in connection with the offering contemplated by this Agreement, such Rule 462(b) Registration Statement shall have been filed with the Commission on the date of this Agreement and shall have become effective automatically upon such filing.
Additional Registration Statement To the extent that the Registration Statement is not available for the sales of the Shares as contemplated by this Agreement, the Company shall file a new registration statement with respect to any additional shares of Common Stock necessary to complete such sales of the Shares and shall cause such registration statement to become effective as promptly as practicable. After the effectiveness of any such registration statement, all references to “Registration Statement” included in this Agreement shall be deemed to include such new registration statement, including all documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3, and all references to “Base Prospectus” included in this Agreement shall be deemed to include the final form of prospectus, including all documents incorporated therein by reference, included in any such registration statement at the time such registration statement became effective.
Shelf and Demand Registrations If requested by the underwriters for any Underwritten Public Offering, pursuant to a Registration or sale under Sections 3.1 or 3.2, the Company shall enter into an underwriting agreement with such underwriters, such agreement to be reasonably satisfactory in substance and form to each of the Company, the participating Requisite Investors and the underwriters, and to contain such representations and warranties by the Company and such other terms as are generally prevailing in agreements of that type, including indemnities no less favorable to the recipient thereof than those provided in Section 3.9. The Holders of the Registrable Securities proposed to be distributed by such underwriters shall cooperate with the Company in the negotiation of the underwriting agreement and shall give consideration to the reasonable suggestions of the Company regarding the form thereof, and such Holders shall complete and execute all questionnaires, powers of attorney and other documents reasonably requested by the underwriters and required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. Any such Holder shall not be required to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Holder, such Holder’s title to the Registrable Securities, such Holder’s intended method of distribution and any other representations to be made by the Holder as are generally prevailing in agreements of that type, and the aggregate amount of the liability of such Holder under such agreement shall not exceed such Holder’s proceeds from the sale of its Registrable Securities in the offering, net of underwriting discounts and commissions but before expenses.
Demand Registrations (a) At any time after the date hereof, (x) a Majority Interest or (y) VS Investors holding a majority of the Registrable Securities held by all VS Investors may notify the Company that they intend to offer or cause to be offered for public sale all or any portion of their Registrable Securities (representing offering proceeds aggregating not less than $10 million) in the manner specified in such request. Upon receipt of such request, the Company shall promptly deliver notice of such request to all Persons holding Registrable Securities who shall then have thirty (30) days to notify the Company in writing of their desire to be included in such registration. If the request for registration contemplates an underwritten public offering, the Company shall state such in the written notice and in such event the right of any Person to participate in such registration shall be conditioned upon their participation in such underwritten public offering and the inclusion of their Registrable Securities in the underwritten public offering to the extent provided herein. The Company shall expeditiously prepare and file, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause to become effective, the registration statement for all Registrable Securities whose holders request participation in such registration under the Securities Act and to qualify such Registrable Securities for sale under any state blue sky law; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to effect registration pursuant to a request under this Section 2 more than two (2) times pursuant to (x) above or one (1) time pursuant to (y) above for the holders of the Registrable Securities as a group. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Company receives a request for registration under this Section 2, then (i) the Company may advise the requesting Investors, within fifteen (15) days of its receipt of such request, that it intends to file a registration statement for the primary issuance of securities in an underwritten public offering, and (ii) assuming that the Company files such registration statement within seventy-five (75) days of its receipt of such request, the Company's registration obligations under this Section 2 shall not apply with respect to such request and no additional request may be made under this Section 2 within one hundred eighty (180) days after the effective date of such registration statement. In addition, the Company may postpone the filing or the effectiveness of any registration statement pursuant to this Section
Initial Registration Statement Promptly following the closing of the Merger Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of January ____, 2007, among the Corporation, Elite FX, Inc., and other parties named therein (the "Closing Date") (but no later than one hundred and eight (180) days after the Closing Date), the Corporation shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be filed and declared effective as soon as reasonably practicable (but in no event later than 30 days after the SEC issues a no review letter) a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 and the rules promulgated thereunder (the "1933 Act"), covering the resale of the Registrable Securities held by the Subscribers, Nugent, Baudanza, Horn and Investa, if any, plus the number of shares of Common Stock necessary to permit the exercise in full of the Penalty Warrants outstanding or issuable on the date of filing. At the time the Registration Statement is declared effective, the Registration Statement shall include all shares of Common Stock exercisable under all Penalty Warrants outstanding or issuable at such time, if any. Such Registration Statement also shall cover, to the extent allowable under the 1933 Act (including Rule 416), such indeterminate number of additional shares of Common Stock resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions with respect to the Registrable Securities. No securities held by a third party shall be included in such Registration Statement without the consent of the Subscribers. The Registration Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each request for acceleration of effectiveness thereof) shall be provided in accordance with Section 3(c) hereof to the Subscribers and their counsel prior to its filing or other submission. If a Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities is not filed with the SEC within one hundred and eighty (180) days of the Closing Date (the "Registration Date"), except as excused pursuant to Section 2(d) below, for each 30-day period (or pro rata for any portion thereof) following the Registration Date during which no Registration Statement is filed with respect to the Registrable Securities, the Corporation will issue Penalty Warrants as set forth in Section 8 below in respect of any Registrable Shares still held by any Subscriber, Nugent, Baudanza, Horn or Investa, if any; provided, however, that no Penalty Warrants shall be issuable to any Subscriber, Nugent, Baudanza, Horn or to Investa in the event such party does not hold or no longer holds Registrable Securities at the time any Penalty Warrants are to be issued.
Filing Registration Statement The Company shall use its best efforts to, as expeditiously as possible after receipt of a request for a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.1, prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement on any form for which the Company then qualifies or which counsel for the Company shall deem appropriate and which form shall be available for the sale of all Registrable Securities to be registered thereunder in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof, and shall use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and use its best efforts to keep it effective for the period required by Section 3.1.3; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to defer any Demand Registration for up to thirty (30) days, and any Piggy-Back Registration for such period as may be applicable to deferment of any demand registration to which such Piggy-Back Registration relates, in each case if the Company shall furnish to the holders a certificate signed by the President or Chairman of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for such Registration Statement to be effected at such time; provided further, however, that the Company shall not have the right to exercise the right set forth in the immediately preceding proviso more than once in any 365-day period in respect of a Demand Registration hereunder.
