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.
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.
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 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).
Suspension of Registration Statement (a) The Company shall immediately notify counsel of the Holders of, and confirm in writing, the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement with respect to such Holder's Registrable Shares or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose. The Company shall use its best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement as soon as practicable.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Company's obligation under this Agreement to cause a Registration Statement and any filings with any state securities commission to become effective or to amend or supplement a Registration Statement or Prospectus included therein shall be suspended (i) in the event and during such period as unforeseen circumstances exist that would require additional disclosure of material information that would make it impractical or unadvisable, in the determination of the Board of Directors of the Company, to cause the Registration Statement or such filings to become effective or to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus included therein, or (ii) the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or such filings or an amendment of or supplement to the Registration Statement or Prospectus included therein could, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors of the Company, interfere with a proposed financing, acquisition or reorganization, the conduct or outcome of any litigation or would require the disclosure of information that the Company has a bona fide purpose for preserving as confidential (each, a "Suspension Event"); provided, however, that, unless otherwise required by applicable law, there shall not be more than three (3) Suspension Events in any 12-month period; and provided further that no Suspension Event shall exceed sixty (60) days. The Company shall notify counsel to the Holders in writing of the existence and, to the extent possible under applicable law, nature of any Suspension Event.
(c) Each Holder agrees that, following the effectiveness of any Registration Statement relating to the Registrable Shares of such Holder, such Holder will not effect any sales of the Registrable Shares pursuant to such Registration Statement or any filings with any state securities commissions at any time after such Holder has received written notice from the Company to suspend sales as a result of the occurrence or existence of any Suspension Event or so that the Company may correct or update such Registration Statement or filing in accordance with Section 2(f). Such Holder may recommence effecting sales of the Registrable Shares pursuant to such Registration Statement or filing upon further notice to such effect from the Company which notice shall be given by the Company promptly after the conclusion of any such Suspension Event.
Resale Registration Statement (a) Within 45 days after the Effective Time, Parent shall file with the SEC, and thereafter use its commercially reasonable best efforts to have declared effective as soon as practicable, a “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 (or if Parent is not eligible to use Form S-3, any other form that Parent is eligible to use) (a “Shelf Registration Statement”) pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act covering the resale (i) by former affiliates of the Company as set forth in Section 5.7(d) of the Company Disclosure Letter including any former affiliates of the Company who may following the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby will be current affiliates of Parent (the “Affiliate Stockholders”) of shares of Parent Common Stock issued pursuant to this Agreement as consideration and (ii) by holders of Company Warrants (“Company Warrant Holders”) of shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Company Warrants or warrants issued by Parent in exchange therefor (collectively, the “Registrable Shares”). In its discretion, Parent will be permitted to register any other shares for resale by other eligible selling stockholders using the Shelf Registration Statement. Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective and usable for the resale of the Registrable Shares covered thereby for a period commencing on the date on which the SEC declares such Shelf Registration Statement effective and ending on the earlier of (x) the date upon which all of the Registrable Shares first become eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 145 under the Securities Act without restriction or (y) the first date upon which all of the Registrable Shares covered by such Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement.
(b) Parent may, by written notice to the Affiliate Stockholders and Company Warrant Holders, (i) delay the filing or effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement for up to thirty (30) days, or for such longer period, as a result of restraints or restrictions under applicable Law or (ii) suspend the Shelf Registration Statement after effectiveness and require that the Affiliate Stockholders and Company Warrant Holders immediately cease sales of shares pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement (A) for a period of not more than thirty (30) consecutive days or seventy-five (75) days in the aggregate during any twelve (12) consecutive calendar months, in the event that Parent files a registration statement (other than a registration statement on Form S-8 or its successor form) with the SEC for a then pending public offering of its securities or (B) following the effectiveness of the Resale Registration Statement, for no longer than twenty (20) consecutive trading days if an event has occurred or Parent has entered into a transaction which Parent determines in good faith must be disclosed in order for Parent to comply with the public disclosure requirements imposed on Parent under the Securities Act in connection with the Resale Registration Statement, provided, that in respect of all such events or occurrences Parent shall not suspend the effectiveness of the Resale Registration Statement for more than forty (40) trading days in the aggregate in any twelve (12) consecutive calendar months.
Registration Statement The Registration Statement shall have become effective under the Securities Act and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall have been issued and no proceedings for that purpose shall have been initiated or threatened by the SEC.
Filing of Registration Statement The Company has filed with the Commission a registration statement, and an amendment or amendments thereto, on Form F-1 (File No. 333-234654), including any related prospectus or prospectuses, for the registration of the Securities under the Securities Act, which registration statement and amendment or amendments have been prepared by the Company in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act. Except as the context may otherwise require, such registration statement, as amended, on file with the Commission at the time the registration statement became effective (including the Preliminary Prospectus included in the registration statement, financial statements, schedules, exhibits and all other documents filed as a part thereof or incorporated therein and all information deemed to be a part thereof as of the Effective Date pursuant to paragraph (b) of Rule 430A of the Securities Act (the “Rule 430A Information”), is referred to herein as the “Registration Statement.” If the Company files any registration statement pursuant to Rule 462(b) of the Securities Act, then after such filing, the term “Registration Statement” shall include such registration statement filed pursuant to Rule 462(b). The Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission on the date hereof. Each prospectus used prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, and each prospectus that omitted the Rule 430A Information that was used after such effectiveness and prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, is herein called a “Preliminary Prospectus.” The Preliminary Prospectus, subject to completion and filed with the Commission on [●], 2020, that was included in the Registration Statement immediately prior to the Applicable Time (as defined below) is hereinafter called the “Pricing Prospectus.” The final prospectus in the form first furnished to the Underwriters for use in the Offering is hereinafter called the “Prospectus.” Any reference to the “most recent Preliminary Prospectus” shall be deemed to refer to the latest Preliminary Prospectus included in the Registration Statement. For purposes of this Agreement:
Filing of Current Report and Registration Statement The Company agrees that it shall, within the time required under the Exchange Act, file with the SEC a report on Form 8-K relating to the transactions contemplated by, and describing the material terms and conditions of, the Transaction Documents (the “Current Report”). The Company shall also file with the SEC, within twenty (20) Business Days from the date hereof, a new registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) covering only the resale of the Purchase Shares and all of the Commitment Shares, in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement between the Company and the Investor, dated as of the date hereof (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The Company shall permit the Investor to review and comment upon the final pre-filing draft version of the Current Report at least two (2) Business Days prior to its filing with the SEC, and the Company shall give due consideration to all such comments. The Investor shall use its reasonable best efforts to comment upon the final pre-filing draft version of the Current Report within one (1) Business Day from the date the Investor receives it from the Company.
Required Registration (a) Any time after the earlier of (i) twelve (12) months following a Qualified Public Offering and (ii) the date that is four (4) years after the date of this Agreement, the holders of at least 66-2/3% of the shares of Preferred Stock then outstanding (or shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock or a combination thereof) may request the Company to register under the Securities Act all or any portion of the shares of Registrable Securities held by such requesting holder or holders for sale in the manner specified in such notice; provided, however, that the shares of Registrable Securities for which registration has been requested shall be at least 20% of the shares of Registrable Securities then held by such requesting holder or holders (or a lesser percentage if the anticipated gross receipts from the offering would exceed $40,000,000).
(b) Following receipt of any notice under this Section 4, the Company shall, within twenty (20) days of receipt thereof, notify all holders of Registrable Securities and Preferred Stock from whom notice has not been received and such holders shall then be entitled within thirty (30) days thereafter to request the Company to include in the requested registration all or any portion of their shares of Registrable Securities. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to register under the Securities Act, for public sale in accordance with the method of disposition described in paragraph (a) above, the number of shares of Registrable Securities specified in such notice (and in all notices received by the Company from other holders within thirty (30) days after the giving of such notice by the Company). The Company shall be obligated to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 4 on two (2) occasions only; provided, however, that such obligation shall be deemed satisfied only when (i) a registration statement covering all shares (or such lesser number as permitted by Section 4(d) below) of Registrable Securities specified in notices received as aforesaid (and not subsequently withdrawn) for sale in accordance with the method of disposition specified by the requesting holders shall have become effective and remain effective for the period of distribution contemplated thereby (unless such requesting holders request that such registration statement be withdrawn, in which case such obligation of the Company shall be deemed satisfied unless such requesting holders pay all Registration Expenses (as defined in Section 8) incurred in connection with the withdrawn registration statement), and (ii) where such registration statement has become effective, if such method of disposition is a firm commitment underwritten public offering, and all such shares shall have been sold to the underwriters pursuant thereto (not including shares eligible for sale pursuant to the underwriters’ over-allotment option). The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any registration pursuant to this Section 4: (i) during the period within ninety (90) days after the effective date of a registration pursuant to Section 4 or Section 6 hereof, or in which the holders of Registrable Securities shall have been entitled to join pursuant to Section 5; (ii) if the shares of Registrable Securities to be registered may be immediately registered on Form S-3; or (iii) during the period within twelve (12) months after the closing of an initial public offering of Common Stock by the Company.
(c) The Company shall be entitled to include in any registration statement referred to in this Section 4 shares of Common Stock to be sold by the Company for its own account, except as and to the extent that, in the opinion of the managing underwriter, such inclusion would adversely affect the marketing of the Registrable Securities to be sold. Subject to Section 14(h) and except for registration statements on Form X-0, X-0 or any successor thereto, the Company will not file with the Commission any other registration statement with respect to its Common Stock, whether for its own account or that of other stockholders, from the date of receipt of a notice from requesting holders requesting sale pursuant to an underwritten offering pursuant to this Section 4 until thirty (30) days after the date such registration statement is declared effective. The right of any holder to include such holder’s Registrable Securities in an underwritten 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 (together with the Company) enter into an underwriting agreement in reasonable and customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting.
(d) If in the opinion of the managing underwriter the inclusion of all of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered under this Section 4 would adversely affect the marketing of such shares, shares to be sold by the holders of Registrable Securities shall be excluded only after any shares to be sold by the Company and any other parties including shares for sale in such registration have been excluded, in such manner that the shares to be sold shall be allocated among the requesting holders pro rata based on their ownership of Registrable Securities. In the event the number of shares to be sold by requesting holders of Registrable Securities pursuant to an underwritten registration under this Section 4 is reduced pursuant to this Section 4(d), such registration shall still count towards satisfaction of the Company’s obligation to register shares under this Section provided that such registration includes at least 40% of the shares of Registrable Securities so requested to be included by the requesting holders.
