Participation Rights (a) At least 30 days prior to any Transfer of Stockholder Shares which are shares of Preferred Stock by the GTCR Investors, the GTCR Investors shall deliver a written notice (the "PREFERRED SALE NOTICE") to the Company and the other Stockholders (the "NON-GTCR STOCKHOLDERS") specifying in reasonable detail the identity of the prospective transferee(s) and the terms and conditions of the Transfer. The Non-GTCR Stockholders may elect to participate in the contemplated Transfer by delivering written notice to the GTCR Investors within 30 days after delivery of the Preferred Sale Notice. If any Non-GTCR Stockholders have elected to participate in such Transfer, the GTCR Investors and such Non-GTCR Stockholders will be entitled to sell in the contemplated Transfer, at the same price and on the same terms, a number of shares of Preferred Stock equal to the product of (A) the quotient determined by dividing the number of shares of Preferred Stock owned by such Person by the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock owned by the GTCR Investors and the Non-GTCR Stockholders participating in such sale and (B) the number of shares of Preferred Stock to be sold in the contemplated Transfer.
(b) At least 30 days prior to any Transfer of Stockholder Shares which are shares of Common Stock by the GTCR Investors, the Bajaj Group or the Xxxxxxxxxx Group (collectively, the "SUBJECT STOCKHOLDERS"), the Subject Stockholder proposing to make such Transfer shall deliver a written notice (the "COMMON SALE NOTICE") to the Company and the other Stockholders (collectively, the "NON-SUBJECT STOCKHOLDERS") specifying in reasonable detail the identity of the prospective transferee(s) and the terms and conditions of the Transfer. The Non-Subject Stockholders may elect to participate in the contemplated Transfer by delivering written notice to the Subject Stockholders within 30 days after delivery of the Common Sale Notice. If any Non-Subject Stockholders have elected to participate in such Transfer, the Subject Stockholders and such Non-Subject Stockholders will be entitled to sell in the contemplated Transfer, at the same price and on the same terms, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the quotient determined by dividing the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Person by the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Common Stock owned by the Subject Stockholders and the Non-Subject Stockholders participating in such sale, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock to be sold in the contemplated Transfer. For purposes of this SECTION 4(b), if a holder of shares of Class B Preferred elects to participate in the contemplated Transfer, (x) the "number of shares of Common Stock owned" by such holder shall equal the quotient determined by dividing (1) the aggregate liquidation value of the shares of Class B Preferred then owned by such holder (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon), by (2) 81.667% of the consideration per share of Common Stock to be paid to the Subject Stockholders by the prospective transferee(s) in the contemplated Transfer, and (y) "the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Common Stock" shall include the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such holder as calculated pursuant to clause (x) above.
(i) The GTCR Investors will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the agreement of the prospective transferee(s) to the participation of the Non-GTCR Stockholders in any Transfer contemplated by Section 4(a), and the GTCR Investors will not transfer any of their Stockholder Shares to the prospective transferee(s) unless (A) the prospective transferee(s) agrees to allow the participation of the Non-GTCR Stockholders at the same price and on the same terms, or (B) the GTCR Investors agree to purchase the number of such class of Stockholder Shares from the Non-GTCR Stockholders which the Non-GTCR Stockholders would have been entitled to sell pursuant to SECTION 4(a) for the consideration per share to be paid to the GTCR Investors by the prospective transferee(s).
(ii) The Subject Stockholders will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the agreement of the prospective transferee(s) to the participation of the Non-Subject Stockholders in any Transfer contemplated by Section 4(b), and the Subject Stockholders will not transfer any of their Stockholder Shares to the prospective transferee(s) unless (A) the prospective transferee(s) agrees to allow the participation of the Non-Subject Stockholders at the same price and on the same terms, or (B) the Subject Stockholders agree to purchase the number of such class of Stockholder Shares from the Non-Subject Stockholders which the Non-Subject Stockholders would have been entitled to sell pursuant to SECTION 4(b) for the consideration per share to be paid to the Subject Stockholders by the prospective transferee(s).
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other provision of this Agreement, this SECTION 4 shall not apply with respect to (i) any Transfer of Stockholder Shares by any GTCR Investor to or among its Affiliates, (ii) an Exempt Bajaj Transfer, (iii) an Exempt Xxxxxxxxxx Transfer, or (iv) a Public Sale; provided that the restrictions contained in this Agreement will continue to be applicable to the Stockholder Shares after any Transfer pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) and, as a condition to such Transfer, the transferee of such Stockholder Shares shall agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement. Upon the Transfer of Stockholder Shares pursuant to clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the previous sentence, the transferees will deliver a written notice to the Company, which notice will disclose in reasonable detail the identity of such transferee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party hereto shall avoid the provisions of this Agreement by making one or more Transfers to one or more Affiliates and then disposing of all or any portion of such party's interest in any such Affiliate.
(e) This Section 4 will terminate upon the first to occur of (i) the consummation of an Approved Sale and (ii) the consummation of a Qualified Public Offering.
Registration Rights; Rights of Participation Except as set forth on Schedule 6(b) to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company has not granted or agreed to grant to any Person any rights (including "piggy-back" registration rights) to have any securities of the Company registered with the Commission or any other governmental authority which has not been satisfied. Except as set forth on Schedule 6(b) to the Registration Rights Agreement, no Person has any right of first refusal, preemptive right, right of participation, or any similar right to participate in the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.
Participation Right At any time on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, no BC Entity shall, directly or indirectly, effect any Subsequent Placement unless the Company shall have first complied with this Section 4(o). The Company acknowledges and agrees that the right set forth in this Section 4(o) is a right granted by the Company, separately, to each Buyer.
(i) At least five (5) Trading Days prior to any proposed or intended Subsequent Placement, the Company shall deliver to each Buyer a written notice (each such notice, a “Pre-Notice”), which Pre-Notice shall not contain any information (including, without limitation, material, non-public information) other than: (A) if the proposed Offer Notice (as defined below) constitutes or contains material, non-public information, a statement asking whether the Investor is willing to accept material non-public information or (B) if the proposed Offer Notice does not constitute or contain material, non-public information, (x) a statement that the Company proposes or intends to effect a Subsequent Placement, (y) a statement that the statement in clause (x) above does not constitute material, non-public information and (z) a statement informing such Buyer that it is entitled to receive an Offer Notice (as defined below) with respect to such Subsequent Placement upon its written request. Upon the written request of a Buyer within three (3) Trading Days after the Company’s delivery to such Buyer of such Pre-Notice, and only upon a written request by such Buyer, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one (1) Trading Day after such request, deliver to such Buyer an irrevocable written notice (the “Offer Notice”) of any proposed or intended issuance or sale or exchange (the “Offer”) of the securities being offered (the “Offered Securities”) in a Subsequent Placement, which Offer Notice shall (A) identify and describe the Offered Securities, (B) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the Offered Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (C) identify the Persons (if known) to which or with which the Offered Securities are to be offered, issued, sold or exchanged and (D) offer to issue and sell to or exchange with such Buyer in accordance with the terms of the Offer such Buyer’s pro rata portion of 5% of the Offered Securities, provided that the number of Offered Securities which such Buyer shall have the right to subscribe for under this Section 4(o) shall be (x) based on such Buyer’s pro rata portion of the aggregate original principal amount of the Notes purchased hereunder by all Buyers (the “Basic Amount”), and (y) with respect to each Buyer that elects to purchase its Basic Amount, any additional portion of the Offered Securities attributable to the Basic Amounts of other Buyers as such Buyer shall indicate it will purchase or acquire should the other Buyers subscribe for less than their Basic Amounts (the “Undersubscription Amount”), which process shall be repeated until each Buyer shall have an opportunity to subscribe for any remaining Undersubscription Amount.
(ii) To accept an Offer, in whole or in part, such Buyer must deliver a written notice to the Company prior to the end of the fifth (5th) Business Day after such Buyer’s receipt of the Offer Notice (the “Offer Period”), setting forth the portion of such Buyer’s Basic Amount that such Buyer elects to purchase and, if such Buyer shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, the Undersubscription Amount, if any, that such Buyer elects to purchase (in either case, the “Notice of Acceptance”). If the Basic Amounts subscribed for by all Buyers are less than the total of all of the Basic Amounts, then each Buyer who has set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of Acceptance shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts subscribed for, the Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed for; provided, however, if the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for exceed the difference between the total of all the Basic Amounts and the Basic Amounts subscribed for (the “Available Undersubscription Amount”), each Buyer who has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount shall be entitled to purchase only that portion of the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Basic Amount of such Buyer bears to the total Basic Amounts of all Buyers that have subscribed for Undersubscription Amounts, subject to rounding by the Company to the extent it deems reasonably necessary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company desires to modify or amend the terms and conditions of the Offer prior to the expiration of the Offer Period, the Company may deliver to each Buyer a new Offer Notice and the Offer Period shall expire on the fifth (5th) Business Day after such Xxxxx’s receipt of such new Offer Notice.
(iii) The Company shall have five (5) Business Days from the expiration of the Offer Period above (A) to offer, issue, sell or exchange all or any part of such Offered Securities as to which a Notice of Acceptance has not been given by a Buyer (the “Refused Securities”) pursuant to a definitive agreement(s) (the “Subsequent Placement Agreement”), but only to the offerees described in the Offer Notice (if so described therein) and only upon terms and conditions (including, without limitation, unit prices and interest rates) that are not more favorable to the acquiring Person or Persons or less favorable to the Company than those set forth in the Offer Notice and (B) to publicly announce (x) the execution of such Subsequent Placement Agreement, and (y) either (I) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such Subsequent Placement Agreement or (II) the termination of such Subsequent Placement Agreement, which shall be filed with the SEC on a Current Report on Form 8-K with such Subsequent Placement Agreement and any documents contemplated therein filed as exhibits thereto.
(iv) In the event the Company shall propose to sell less than all the Refused Securities (any such sale to be in the manner and on the terms specified in Section 4(o)(iii) above), then each Buyer may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, withdraw its Notice of Acceptance or reduce the number or amount of the Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance to an amount that shall be not less than the number or amount of the Offered Securities that such Buyer elected to purchase pursuant to Section 4(o)(ii) above multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of Offered Securities the Company actually proposes to issue, sell or exchange (including Offered Securities to be issued or sold to Buyers pursuant to this Section 4(o) prior to such reduction) and (ii) the denominator of which shall be the original amount of the Offered Securities. In the event that any Buyer so elects to reduce the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not issue, sell or exchange more than the reduced number or amount of the Offered Securities unless and until such securities have again been offered to the Buyers in accordance with Section 4(o)(i) above.
(v) Upon the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the Refused Securities, such Buyer shall acquire from the Company, and the Company shall issue to such Buyer, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to Section 4(o)(iv) above if such Buyer has so elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer. The purchase by such Buyer of any Offered Securities is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company and such Buyer of a separate purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to such Buyer and its counsel.
(vi) Any Offered Securities not acquired by a Buyer or other Persons in accordance with this Section 4(o) may not be issued, sold or exchanged until they are again offered to such Buyer under the procedures specified in this Agreement.
(vii) The Company and each Buyer agree that if any Buyer elects to participate in the Offer, (x) neither the Subsequent Placement Agreement with respect to such Offer nor any other transaction documents related thereto (collectively, the “Subsequent Placement Documents”) shall include any term or provision whereby such Buyer shall be required to agree to any restrictions on trading as to any securities of the Company or be required to consent to any amendment to or termination of, or grant any waiver, release or the like under or in connection with, any agreement previously entered into with the Company or any instrument received from the Company, and (y) any registration rights set forth in such Subsequent Placement Documents shall be similar in all material respects to the registration rights contained in the Registration Rights Agreement.
(viii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4(o) and unless otherwise agreed to by such Buyer, the Company shall either confirm in writing to such Buyer that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Placement has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the Offered Securities, in either case, in such a manner such that such Buyer will not be in possession of any material, non-public information, by the fifth (5th) Business Day following delivery of the Offer Notice. If by such fifth (5th) Business Day, no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Offered Securities has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by such Buyer, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and such Buyer shall not be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Should the Company decide to pursue such transaction with respect to the Offered Securities, the Company shall provide such Buyer with another Offer Notice and such Buyer will again have the right of participation set forth in this Section 4(o). The Company shall not be permitted to deliver more than one such Offer Notice to such Buyer in any sixty (60) day period, except as expressly contemplated by the last sentence of Section 4(o)(ii).
(ix) The restrictions contained in this Section 4(o) shall not apply in connection with the issuance of any Excluded Securities (as defined in the Notes). The Company shall not circumvent the provisions of this Section 4(o) by providing terms or conditions to one Buyer that are not provided to all.
Exercise of the Purchase Rights The purchase rights set forth in this Warrant Agreement are exercisable by the Warrantholder, in whole or in part, at any time, or from time to time, prior to the expiration of the term set forth in Section 2 above, by tendering to the Company at its principal office a notice of exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the "Notice of Exercise"), duly completed and executed. Promptly upon receipt of the Notice of Exercise and the payment of the purchase price in accordance with the terms set forth below, and in no event later than twenty-one (21) days thereafter, the Company shall issue to the Warrantholder a certificate for the number of shares of Preferred Stock purchased and shall execute the acknowledgment of exercise in the form attached hereto as Exhibit II (the "Acknowledgment of Exercise") indicating the number of shares which remain subject to future purchases, if any. The Exercise Price may be paid at the Warrantholder's election either (i) by cash or check, or (ii) by surrender of Warrants ("Net Issuance") as determined below. If the Warrantholder elects the Net Issuance method, the Company will issue Preferred Stock in accordance with the following formula: X = Y(A-B) ------ A Where: X = the number of shares of Preferred Stock to be issued to the Warrantholder. Y = the number of shares of Preferred Stock requested to be exercised under this Warrant Agreement. A = the fair market value of one (1) share of Preferred Stock.
Purchase of Participations Immediately upon issuance of any Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.3(d), each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the face amount of such Letter of Credit in connection with the issuance or acceptance of such Letter of Credit (including all obligations of the Borrower with respect thereto, and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto).
Right of Participation (a) In addition, for a period commencing on the Closing Date and terminating on the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company agrees not to participate in any offer or sale of equity or debt securities (a “Subsequent Financing”) without offering to the Purchasers the opportunity to purchase up to a minimum of 35% of the securities offered in such Subsequent Financing (the “Participation Maximum”) on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the Subsequent Financing.
(b) At least five (5) Trading Days prior to the closing of the Subsequent Financing, the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser a written notice of its intention to effect a Subsequent Financing (“Pre-Notice”), which Pre-Notice shall ask such Purchaser if it wants to review the details of such financing (such additional notice, a “Subsequent Financing Notice”). Upon the request of a Purchaser, and only upon a request by such Purchaser, for a Subsequent Financing Notice, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one (1) Trading Day after such request, deliver a Subsequent Financing Notice to such Purchaser. The Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Subsequent Financing, the amount of proceeds intended to be raised thereunder and the Person or Persons through or with whom such Subsequent Financing is proposed to be effected and shall include a term sheet or similar document relating thereto as an attachment.
(c) Any Purchaser desiring to participate in such Subsequent Financing must provide written notice to the Company by not later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Trading Day after such Purchaser’s receipt of the Pre-Notice, that such Purchaser is willing to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the amount of such Purchaser’s participation, and representing and warranting that such Purchaser has such funds ready, willing, and available for investment on the terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice. If the Company receives no such notice from a Purchaser as of such fifth (5th) Trading Day, such Purchaser shall be deemed to have notified the Company that it does not elect to participate.
(d) If by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Trading Day after all of the Purchasers have received the Pre-Notice, notifications by the Purchasers of their willingness to participate in the Subsequent Financing (or to cause their designees to participate) cover, in the aggregate, less than the total amount of the Subsequent Financing, then the Company may effect the remaining portion of such Subsequent Financing on the terms and with the Persons set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice.
(e) If by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Trading Day after all of the Purchasers have received the Pre-Notice, the Company receives responses to a Subsequent Financing Notice from Purchasers seeking to purchase more than the aggregate amount of the Participation Maximum, each such Purchaser shall have the right to purchase its Pro Rata Portion (as defined below) of the Participation Maximum. “Pro Rata Portion” means the ratio of (x) the Subscription Amount of Securities purchased on the Closing Date by a Purchaser participating under this Section 4.10 and (y) the sum of the aggregate Subscription Amounts of Securities purchased on the Closing Date by all Purchasers participating under this Section 4.10 plus the aggregate subscription amounts of investors that acquire Preferred Shares for Exchange Securities that are participating in such Subsequent Financing pursuant to participation rights granted to such investors under such agreements that are substantially similar to this Section 4.10.
Exercise of Call Option 3.1 During the Call Option Period, PCCW may exercise the Call Option by delivering to PubCo a written notice (the “Call Notice”) specifying the principal amount of the Call Option Note it elects to subscribe for (such principal amount, the “Call Option Note Amount”).
3.2 On the fifth (5th) Business Day following the delivery of a Call Notice (or such other date as may be mutually agreed between PubCo and PCCW) (such date, the “Call Option Closing Date”),
(a) PCCW shall deliver or cause to be delivered to PubCo one or more payment references for US$ CHATS (or such other payment references mutually agreed between PubCo and PCCW) in connection with the payment of the Call Option Note Amount to PubCo’s designated bank account (details of which shall be provided by PubCo to PCCW in writing at least three (3) Business Days before the Call Option Closing Date).
(b) PubCo shall (i) issue and deliver to PCCW a Call Option Note in favour of PCCW payable in the principal amount of the Call Option Note Amount, together with a certified copy of the register of holders of the Call Option Notes as at such Call Option Closing Date, and (ii) issue and deliver to PCCW such number of Class A Ordinary Shares as determined in accordance with Section 2.1(b), and cause such Class A Ordinary Shares to be registered in book entry form and registered in PubCo’s share register or register of members (as applicable) in PCCW’s name.
3.3 The Class A Ordinary Shares issued to PCCW upon any exercise of the Call Option shall:
(a) be credited as fully paid,
(b) have the rights set out in the PubCo Charter relating to Class A Ordinary Shares; and
(c) rank pari passu in all respects with those Class A Ordinary Shares in issue on the Call Option Closing Date.
3.4 No fractions of a Class A Ordinary Share shall be issued on the exercise of the Call Option. If, by reason of any provisions in this Agreement, PCCW would otherwise be entitled, upon the exercise of the Call Option, to receive a fractional interest in a Class A Ordinary Share, PubCo shall, upon such exercise, round down the number of the Class A Ordinary Shares to be issued to PCCW to the nearest whole number.
3.5 Each of the Class A Ordinary Shares acquired by PCCW (or its permitted transferees) pursuant to this Agreement during the Lock-Up Period (as defined in the Company Shareholders Support Agreement) shall be subject to the lock-up restrictions and other provisions of the Company Shareholders Support Agreement.
Exercise of Put Option Each Paying Agent shall make available to Noteholders during the period specified in Condition 9(e) (Redemption at the option of Noteholders) for the deposit of Put Option Notices forms of Put Option Notice upon request during usual business hours at its Specified Office. Upon receipt by a Paying Agent of a duly completed Put Option Notice and, in the case of a Put Option Notice relating to Definitive Notes or Individual Note Certificates, such Definitive Notes and Individual Note Certificates in accordance with Condition 9(e) (Redemption at the option of Noteholders), such Paying Agent shall notify the Relevant Issuer and (in the case of a Paying Agent other than the Fiscal Agent) the Fiscal Agent thereof indicating the certificate or serial numbers (if any) and principal amount of the Notes in respect of which the Put Option is exercised. Any such Paying Agent with which a Definitive Note or Individual Note Certificate is deposited shall deliver a duly completed Put Option Receipt to the depositing Noteholder and shall hold such Definitive Note or Individual Note Certificate on behalf of the depositing Noteholder (but shall not, save as provided below or in the Conditions, release it) until the Optional Redemption Date (Put), when it shall present such Definitive Note or Individual Note Certificate to itself for payment of the redemption moneys therefor and interest (if any) accrued to such date in accordance with the Conditions and Clause 8 (Payments to Noteholders) and pay such amounts in accordance with the directions of the Noteholder contained in the Put Option Notice; provided, however, that if, prior to the Optional Redemption Date (Put), such Definitive Note or Notes evidenced by such Individual Note Certificate become immediately due and payable or upon due presentation of such Definitive Note or Individual Note Certificate payment of such redemption moneys is improperly withheld or refused, the relevant Paying Agent shall mail notification thereof to the depositing Noteholder at such address as may have been given by such Noteholder in the relevant Put Option Notice and shall, in the case of a Definitive Note, hold such Note at its Specified Office for collection by the depositing Noteholder against surrender of the relevant Put Option Receipt and, in the case of an Individual Note Certificate, mail such Note Certificate by uninsured post to, and at the risk of, the Noteholder at such address as may have been given by such Noteholder in the relevant Put Option Notice. For so long as any outstanding Definitive Note is held by a Paying Agent in accordance with the preceding sentence, the depositor of the relevant Definitive Note, and not the relevant Paying Agent, shall be deemed to be the bearer of such Definitive Note for all purposes. Any Paying Agent which receives a Put Option Notice or an instruction in relation to such notice, by authenticated SWIFT message in respect of Notes represented by a Permanent Global Note or a Global Registered Note shall make payment of the relevant redemption moneys and interest accrued to the Optional Redemption Date (Put) in accordance with the Conditions, Clause 8 (Payments to Noteholders) and the terms of the Permanent Global Note or Global Registered Note, as the case may be.
Exercise of Repurchase Right Any Repurchase Right under Paragraphs 15(a) or 15(b) shall be exercised by giving notice of exercise as provided herein to Optionee or the estate of Optionee, as applicable. Such right shall be exercised, and the repurchase price thereunder shall be paid, by the Company within a ninety (90) day period beginning on the date of notice to the Company of the occurrence of such Repurchase Event (except in the case of termination or cessation of services as director, where such option period shall begin upon the occurrence of the Repurchase Event). Such repurchase price shall be payable only in the form of cash (including a check drafted on immediately available funds) or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness of the Optionee for the Shares. If the Company can not purchase all such Shares because it is unable to meet the financial tests set forth in the Nevada corporation law, the Company shall have the right to purchase as many Shares as it is permitted to purchase under such sections. Any Shares not purchased by the Company hereunder shall no longer be subject to the provisions of this Section 15.
Grant and Exercise of Option Provided that (i) no Default has occurred and is then continuing (ii) the creditworthiness of Tenant is then reasonably acceptable to Landlord and (iii) Tenant originally named herein or a Permitted Transferee remains in possession of the Leased Premises throughout the term immediately preceding the Extension Term (as defined below), Tenant shall have the option to extend the Lease Term for two (2) additional periods of five (5) years each (the "Extension Term(s)"). Each Extension Term shall be upon the same terms and conditions contained in the Lease except (x) this provision giving two (2) extension options shall be amended to reflect the remaining options to extend, if any, and (y) any improvement allowances or other concessions applicable to the Leased Premises under the Lease shall not apply to the Extension Term, and (z) the Minimum Annual Rent shall be adjusted as set forth below (the "Rent Adjustment"). Tenant shall exercise each option by delivering to Landlord, no later than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the preceding term, written notice of Tenant's desire to extend the Lease Term. Tenant's failure to timely exercise such option shall be deemed a waiver of such option and any succeeding option. Landlord shall notify Tenant of the amount of the Rent Adjustment no later than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the commencement of the Extension Term. Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted the Rent Adjustment if it fails to deliver to Landlord a written objection thereto within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof. If Tenant exercises its option to extend in accordance with the terms hereof, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to the Lease reflecting the terms and conditions of the Extension Term within thirty (30) days after Tenant's acceptance (or deemed acceptance) of the Rent Adjustment.
