Put Option The Company hereby grants to Lender an option (the “Put Option”) to sell all or any portion of the Issued Shares (the “Put Shares”) to the Company for a total purchase price of $195,000, pro-rated for any portion thereof (the “Put Price”). The Put Option may be exercised with respect to any amount that is equal to or less than the entire balance of the outstanding Put Shares, at any time during the earlier to occur of the following Put Option exercise periods (the “Put Period”): (a) the ten (10) Business Day period commencing on the first anniversary hereof, or (b) the ten (10) Business Day period commencing on the date which is nine (9) months after the date that the registration statement for the registration of the Issued Shares is declared effective by the SEC . If not exercised during the Put Period, the Put Option shall terminate and shall be of no further force or effect. The Put Option shall be exercisable by Lender’s delivery of written notice to the Company (the “Put Notice”). The Put Notice shall specify the date on which the closing of the purchase of the Put Shares shall take place (the “Put Closing Date”), which such date shall be no earlier than ten (10) days but no later than thirty (30) days from the date of the Put Notice. On or before the Put Closing Date, Lender will deliver to the Company the certificate(s) representing the Put Shares (duly endorsed for transfer by Lender or accompanied by duly executed stock powers in blank) and the Company shall tender to Lender the Put Price in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account at a bank designated by Lender. The Company and Lender acknowledge and agree that the Company’s obligation to purchase the Issued Shares from Lender pursuant to the Put Option is an Obligation secured by the Collateral and any related guarantees under the Loan Documents, and for so long as the Put Option is outstanding and, if exercised, the Put Price is not yet tendered, the Lender’s right to receive the Put Price shall be secured by the Collateral and any related guarantees under the Loan Documents. Lender’s right to exercise the Put Option shall not be transferred or assigned to any third party.
6.1 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to accelerate the exercise of the Put Option upon a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Loan Agreement), as follows: The Company shall send written notice of the proposed Fundamental Transaction (“Fundamental Transaction Notice”) no later than thirty (30) days prior to the date of the proposed consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, together with all relevant information relating thereto, in form sufficient to enable Lender to make an informed decision as to whether it should accelerate the Put Option. Within fifteen (15) days of Lender’s receipt of the Fundamental Transaction Notice, Lender shall advise the Company whether the Lender has elected to accelerate the exercise of the Put Option. Lender’s failure to timely notify the Company of Lender’s intention to accelerate the Put Option shall be deemed an intention to decline to accelerate the Put Option.
6.2 In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to accelerate the exercise of the Put Option following an Event of Default under the Loan Documents (which acceleration right shall not be waived if not exercised following a prior Event of Default), in which event the Put Price shall be added to the Obligations under the Loan Agreement and secured by the Collateral thereunder, and shall be immediately due and payable to Lender.
6.3 If any portion of the Note is converted into Common Stock pursuant to the Loan Documents, the Put Option set forth hereinabove, if not terminated by its terms herein, shall terminate.
Early Termination Option (a) Tenant shall have the one time right to terminate this Lease effective as of the twelve (12) year and six (6) month anniversary of the Commencement Date (the “Early Termination Date”) by delivering notice thereof to Landlord (the “Early Termination Notice”) no later than the eleven (11) year anniversary of the Commencement Date (time being of the essence with respect to the giving of such notice). Tenant’s right to terminate this Lease is contingent upon (a) timely delivery of the Early Termination Notice, (b) Tenant not being in default of any monetary obligation or any material non-monetary obligation under this Lease as of the date of the giving of the Early Termination Notice or as of the Early Termination Date for which notice of such default has been given to Tenant, and (c) Tenant delivering to Landlord, at the same time Tenant delivers to Landlord the Early Termination Notice, a payment in an amount equal to $3,600,000.00 (the “Early Termination Payment”). The failure of Tenant to timely give Landlord the Early Termination Notice and/or the Early Termination Payment shall render any Early Termination Notice delivered to Landlord null and void and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect pursuant to the terms hereof. If Tenant properly terminates the Lease pursuant to the provisions of this Article 33, the Lease shall expire at midnight on the Early Termination Date as if such date was the date set forth in the Lease as the Expiration Date.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant’s right to terminate this Lease pursuant to this Article 33 shall be waived and this Article 33 shall be null and void and of no further force or effect following the earlier to occur of (i) Tenant shall have, through one or more exercises of its Right of First Refusal Expansion Option set forth in Article 32, expanded the Premises leased hereunder by more than 7,500 square feet, in the aggregate, or (ii) Tenant shall have exercised its rights under Article 35.
