Rights to Future Stock Issuances Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 10 and applicable securities Laws, if at any time prior to the first anniversary of the first Closing hereunder, the Company proposes to offer or sell any New Securities, the Company shall first offer the Investors the opportunity to purchase up to one hundred percent (100%) of such New Securities. The Investors shall be entitled to apportion the right of first offer hereby granted to them in proportion to their respective percentages of the total Subscription Amount including every Closing that has occurred under this Agreement as of such time stated in the preceding sentence.
10.1 The Company shall give notice (the “Offer Notice”) to the Investors, stating (a) its bona fide intention to offer such New Securities, (b) the number of such New Securities to be offered, and (c) the price and terms, if any, upon which it proposes to offer such New Securities.
10.2 By notification to the Company within ten (10) days after the Offer Notice is given, the Investors may elect to purchase or otherwise acquire, at the price and on the terms specified in the Offer Notice, up to one hundred percent (100%) of such New Securities. The closing of any sale pursuant to this Section 10 shall occur within the later of ninety (90) days of the date that the Offer Notice is given and the date of initial sale of the New Securities pursuant to Section 10.3.
10.3 The Company may, during the ninety (90) day period following the expiration of the period provided in Section 10.2, offer and sell the remaining portion of such New Securities to any Person or Persons at a price not less than, and upon terms no more favorable to the offeree than, those specified in the Offer Notice. If the Company does not enter into an agreement for the sale of the New Securities within such period, or if such agreement is not consummated within thirty (30) days of the execution thereof, the right provided hereunder shall be deemed to be revived and such New Securities shall not be offered unless first reoffered to the Investors in accordance with this Section 10.
10.4 The right of first offer in this Section 10 shall not be applicable to an Exempt Issuance (as defined in the Note), or any New Securities registered for sale under the Securities Act.
Stock Issuance (a) The Company shall issue the Award Shares in book entry form, registered in your name with notations regarding the applicable restrictions on transfer imposed under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company may, in its discretion, elect to issue such shares in certificate form as provided below.
(b) Any certificates representing the Award Shares that may be delivered to you by the Company prior to vesting shall be redelivered to the Company to be held by the Company until the restrictions on such Award Shares have lapsed and the Award Shares shall thereby have become vested or the shares represented thereby have been forfeited hereunder. Such certificates shall bear a legend as contemplated by this Section 5.
(c) Promptly after the vesting of the Award Shares pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall, as applicable, either remove the notations on any shares issued in book entry form which have vested or deliver to you a certificate or certificates evidencing the number of Award Shares which have vested.
(d) If the Company elects to issue you certificates, you shall be required to execute a stock power, in the form attached as Exhibit A, with respect to the Award Shares. The Company shall not deliver any certificates in accordance with this Agreement unless and until the Company shall have received such stock power executed by you. You, by acceptance of this award, shall be deemed to appoint, and you do so appoint by execution of this Agreement, the Company and each of its authorized representatives as your attorney(s)-in-fact to effect any transfer of unvested forfeited Award Shares (or Award Shares otherwise reacquired by the Company hereunder) to the Company as may be required pursuant to the Plan or this Agreement and to execute such documents as the Company or such representatives deem necessary or advisable in connection with any such transfer.
(e) Until the Award Shares become vested, any share certificates or book entry positions representing such shares will include a legend to the effect that you may sell, pledge, assign or otherwise directly or indirectly dispose of or transfer the Award Shares and the Award Shares are subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan.
OVERALL LIMIT ON COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if during the Open Period the Company becomes listed on an exchange that limits the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued without shareholder approval, then the number of Shares issuable by the Company and purchasable by the Investor, shall not exceed that number of the shares of Common Stock that may be issuable without shareholder approval (the "Maximum Common Stock Issuance"). If such issuance of shares of Common Stock could cause a delisting on the Principal Market, then the Maximum Common Stock Issuance shall first be approved by the Company's shareholders in accordance with applicable law and the By-laws and Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, if such issuance of shares of Common Stock could cause a delisting on the Principal Market. The parties understand and agree that the Company's failure to seek or obtain such shareholder approval shall in no way adversely affect the validity and due authorization of the issuance and sale of Securities or the Investor's obligation in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof to purchase a number of Shares in the aggregate up to the Maximum Common Stock Issuance limitation, and that such approval pertains only to the applicability of the Maximum Common Stock Issuance limitation provided in this Section 2(H).
Future Stock Incentive Plans Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed or applied to preclude or restrain the Corporation from adopting, modifying or terminating stock incentive plans for the benefit of employees, directors or other business associates of the Corporation, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates. The Members acknowledge and agree that, in the event that any such plan is adopted, modified or terminated by the Corporation, amendments to this Section 3.10 may become necessary or advisable and that any approval or consent to any such amendments requested by the Corporation shall be deemed granted by the Manager and the Members, as applicable, without the requirement of any further consent or acknowledgement of any other Member.
Adjustment for Common Stock Issue If the Company issues shares of Common Stock for a consideration per share less than the Closing Price per share on the date the Company fixes the offering price of such additional shares, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Warrant shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula: N’ = N x A O + P/M where: N’ = the adjusted number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Warrant. N = the current number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each Warrant. O = the number of shares outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such additional shares. P = the aggregate consideration received for the issuance of such additional shares. M = the Closing Price per share on the date of issuance of such additional shares. A = the number of shares outstanding immediately after the issuance of such additional shares. The adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such issuance is made, and shall become effective immediately after such issuance. This subsection (d) does not apply to:
(1) any of the transactions described in subsections (b) and (c) of this Section 11,
(2) the exercise of Warrants, or the conversion or exchange of other securities convertible or exchangeable for Common Stock, or the issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of rights or warrants issued to the holders of Common Stock,
(3) Common Stock (and options exercisable therefor) issued to the Company’s employees, officers, directors, consultants or advisors (whether or not still in such capacity on the date of exercise) under bona fide employee benefit plans or stock option plans adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company and approved by the holders of Common Stock when required by law, if such Common Stock would otherwise be covered by this subsection (d),
(4) Common Stock issued in a bona fide public offering for cash,
(5) Common Stock issued in a bona fide private placement to non-affiliates of the Company, including without limitation the issuance of equity as consideration or partial consideration for acquisitions from persons that are not affiliates of the Company.
Reservation of Stock Issuable Upon Conversion The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the indebtedness represented by this Note, such number of its shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all indebtedness represented by this Note, and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all indebtedness represented by this Note, the Corporation will take such action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares as shall be sufficient for such purpose.
Reservation of Stock Issuable on Exercise of Warrant The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of the Warrant, shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant.
Distributions Other Than Cash, Shares or Rights to Purchase Shares (a) Whenever the Company intends to distribute to the holders of Deposited Securities property other than cash, Shares or rights to purchase additional Shares, the Company shall give notice thereof to the Depositary at least 30 days prior to the proposed distribution and shall indicate whether or not it wishes such distribution to be made to Holders of ADSs. Upon receipt of a notice indicating that the Company wishes such distribution be made to Holders of ADSs, the Depositary shall determine whether such distribution to Holders is lawful and practicable. The Depositary shall not make such distribution unless (i) the Company shall have timely requested the Depositary to make such distribution to Holders, (ii) the Depositary shall have received satisfactory documentation within the terms of Section 5.7 hereof and (iii) the Depositary shall have determined that such distribution is lawful and reasonably practicable.
(b) Upon receipt of satisfactory documentation and the request of the Company to distribute property to Holders of ADSs and after making the requisite determinations set forth in (a) above, the Depositary may distribute the property so received to the Holders of record as of the ADS Record Date, in proportion to the number of ADSs held by such Holders respectively and in such manner as the Depositary may deem practicable for accomplishing such distribution (i) upon receipt of payment or net of the applicable fees and charges of, and expenses incurred by, the Depositary and (ii) net of any taxes and/or other governmental charges. The Depositary may dispose of all or a portion of the property so distributed and deposited, in such amounts and in such manner (including public or private sale) as the Depositary may deem practicable or necessary to satisfy any taxes (including applicable interest and penalties) and other governmental charges applicable to the distribution.
(c) If (i) the Company does not request the Depositary to make such distribution to Holders or requests the Depositary not to make such distribution to Holders, (ii) the Depositary does not receive satisfactory documentation within the terms of Section 5.7 hereof or (iii) the Depositary determines that all or a portion of such distribution is not reasonably practicable or feasible, the Depositary shall endeavor to sell or cause such property to be sold in a public or private sale, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper and shall distribute the net proceeds, if any, of such sale received by the Depositary (net of applicable fees and charges of, and expenses incurred by, the Depositary and/or a division or Affiliate(s) of the Depositary and taxes and/or governmental charges) to the Holders as of the ADS Record Date upon the terms of Section 4.1 hereof. If the Depositary is unable to sell such property, the Depositary may dispose of such property in any way it deems reasonably practicable under the circumstances for nominal or no consideration and Holders and Beneficial Owners shall have no rights thereto or arising therefrom.
Issuance of Shares of Common Stock As soon as practicable upon the occurrence of an Exchange Event, the Company shall direct holders of the Rights to return their Rights Certificates to the Rights Agent. Upon receipt of a valid Rights Certificate, the Company shall issue to the registered holder of such Right(s) the number of full shares of Common Stock to which he, she or it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by him, her or it and issue to such registered holder(s) a certificate or book-entry position for the such shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, or any provision contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Rights. The Company shall not issue fractional shares upon exchange of Rights. In the event that any holder would otherwise be entitled to any fractional share upon exchange of Rights, at the time of an Exchange Event, the Company will instruct the Right Agent how any such entitlement will be addressed. To the fullest extent permitted by the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation the Company reserves the right to deal with any such fractional entitlement at the relevant time in any manner permitted by the Act and the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, which would include the rounding down of any entitlement to receive shares of Common Stock to the nearest whole share (and in effect extinguishing any fractional entitlement), or the holder being entitled to hold any remaining fractional entitlement (without any share being issued) and to aggregate the same with any future fractional entitlement to receive shares in the Company until the holder is entitled to receive a whole number. Any rounding down and extinguishment may be done with or without any in lieu cash payment or other compensation being made to the holder of the relevant Rights, such that value received on exchange of the Rights may be considered less than the value that the holder would otherwise expect to receive.
Issuance of Shares of Common Stock on Exercise As soon as practicable after the exercise of any Warrant and the clearance of the funds in payment of the Warrant Price (if payment is pursuant to subsection 3.3.1(a)), the Company shall issue to the Registered Holder of such Warrant a book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, for the number of full shares of Common Stock to which he, she or it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by him, her or it, and if such Warrant shall not have been exercised in full, a new book-entry position or countersigned Warrant, as applicable, for the number of shares of Common Stock as to which such Warrant shall not have been exercised. If fewer than all the Warrants evidenced by a Book-Entry Warrant Certificate are exercised, a notation shall be made to the records maintained by the Depositary, its nominee for each Book-Entry Warrant Certificate, or a Participant, as appropriate, evidencing the balance of the Warrants remaining after such exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of a Warrant and shall have no obligation to settle such Warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the Public Warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company’s satisfying its obligations under Section 7.4. No Warrant shall be exercisable and the Company shall not be obligated to issue shares of Common Stock upon exercise of a Warrant unless the Common Stock issuable upon such Warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt from registration or qualification under the securities laws of the state of residence of the Registered Holder of the Warrants, except pursuant to Section 7.4. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a Warrant, the holder of such Warrant shall not be entitled to exercise such Warrant and such Warrant may have no value and expire worthless, in which case the purchaser of a Unit containing such Public Warrants shall have paid the full purchase price for the Unit solely for the shares of Common Stock underlying such Unit. In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Warrant exercise. The Company may require holders of Public Warrants to settle the Warrant on a “cashless basis” pursuant to subsection 3.3.1(b)
