Public Offering of the Offered Shares The Representatives hereby advise the Company that the Underwriters intend to offer for sale to the public, initially on the terms set forth in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus, their respective portions of the Offered Shares as soon after this Agreement has been executed as the Representatives, in their sole judgment, have determined is advisable and practicable.
Increase in Authorized Shares At such time as the Company would be, if a notice of conversion or exercise (as the case may be) were to be delivered on such date, precluded from (a) converting the full outstanding principal amount of Debentures (and paying any accrued but unpaid interest in respect thereof in shares of Common Stock) that remain unconverted at such date or (b) honoring the exercise in full of the Warrants due to the unavailability of a sufficient number of shares of authorized but unissued or re-acquired Common Stock, the Board of Directors of the Company shall promptly (and in any case within 30 Business Days from such date) prepare and mail to the shareholders of the Company proxy materials requesting authorization to amend the Company's restated certificate of incorporation to increase the number of shares of Common Stock which the Company is authorized to issue to at least a number of shares equal to the sum of (i) all shares of Common Stock then outstanding, (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on account of all outstanding warrants, options and convertible securities (other than the Debentures and the Warrants) and on account of all shares reserved under any stock option, stock purchase, warrant or similar plan, (iii) 200% of the number of Underlying Shares as would then be issuable upon a conversion in full of the then outstanding Debentures and as payment of all future interest thereon in shares of common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Debentures and (iv) such number of Underlying Shares as would then be issuable upon the exercise in full of the warrants. In connection therewith, the Board of Directors shall (x) adopt proper resolutions authorizing such increase, (y) recommend to and otherwise use its best efforts to promptly and duly obtain stockholder approval to carry out such resolutions (and hold a special meeting of the shareholders no later than the 60th day after delivery of the proxy materials relating to such meeting) and (z) within 5 Business Days of obtaining such shareholder authorization, file an appropriate amendment to the Company's certificate of incorporation to evidence such increase.
Optional Increase in Commitments The Borrower may, from time to time, by means of a letter delivered to the Administrative Agent substantially in the form of Exhibit C, request that the Aggregate Commitment Amount be increased by an aggregate amount (for all such increases) not exceeding $250,000,000 by (a) increasing the Commitment Amount of one or more Lenders that have agreed to such increase (in their sole discretion) and/or (b) adding one or more commercial banks or other Persons as a party hereto (each an “Additional Lender”) with a Commitment Amount in an amount agreed to by any such Additional Lender; provided that (i) any increase in the Aggregate Commitment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount of $25,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000; (ii) no Additional Lender shall be added as a party hereto without the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the LC Issuers (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld) or if an Event of Default or an Unmatured Event of Default exists; (iii) subject to Section 8.07(h), no such increase shall be effective without the written consent of the LC Issuers (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); and (iv) the Borrower may not request an increase in the Aggregate Commitment Amount unless the Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent (with a copy for each Lender) a certificate (A) stating that any applicable governmental authority has approved such increase, (B) attaching evidence, reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, of each such approval and (C) stating that the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01 are correct on and as of the date of such certificate as though made on and as of such date and that no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default exists on such date. Any increase in the Aggregate Commitment Amount pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall be effective three Business Days after the date on which the Administrative Agent has received and accepted the applicable increase letter in the form of Annex 1 to Exhibit C (in the case of an increase in the Commitment Amount of an existing Lender) or assumption letter in the form of Annex 2 to Exhibit C (in the case of the addition of a commercial bank or other Person as a new Lender). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any increase in the Aggregate Commitment Amount pursuant to this Section 2.18 and of the Commitment Amount and Pro Rata Share of each Lender after giving effect thereto. The Borrower shall prepay any Advances outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 8.04(b)) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Advances ratable among the Lenders in accordance with any revised Pro Rata Shares arising from any non-ratable increase in the Commitment Amounts under this Section 2.18; provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and each increasing Lender and Additional Lender, as applicable, may make arrangements satisfactory to such parties to cause an increasing Lender or an Additional Lender to temporarily hold risk participations in the outstanding Advances of the other Lenders (rather than fund its Pro Rata Share of all outstanding Advances concurrently with the applicable increase) with a view toward minimizing breakage costs and transfers of funds in connection with any increase in the Aggregate Commitment Amount. To the extent that any increase pursuant to this Section 2.18 is not expressly authorized pursuant to resolutions or consents delivered pursuant to Section 3.01(b)(i), the Borrower shall, prior to the effectiveness of such increase, deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate signed by an authorized officer of the Borrower certifying and attaching the resolutions or consents that have been adopted to approve or consent to such increase.
Default Exceeding 10% of Firm Shares or Option Shares In the event that the default addressed in Section 6.1 relates to more than 10% of the Firm Shares or Option Shares, you may in your discretion arrange for yourself or for another party or parties to purchase such Firm Shares or Option Shares to which such default relates on the terms contained herein. If, within one (1) Business Day after such default relating to more than 10% of the Firm Shares or Option Shares, you do not arrange for the purchase of such Firm Shares or Option Shares, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of one (1) Business Day within which to procure another party or parties satisfactory to you to purchase said Firm Shares or Option Shares on such terms. In the event that neither you nor the Company arrange for the purchase of the Firm Shares or Option Shares to which a default relates as provided in this Section 6, this Agreement will automatically be terminated by you or the Company without liability on the part of the Company (except as provided in Sections 3.9 and 5 hereof) or the several Underwriters (except as provided in Section 5 hereof); provided, however, that if such default occurs with respect to the Option Shares, this Agreement will not terminate as to the Firm Shares; and provided, further, that nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the other Underwriters and to the Company for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.
Increase in Total Commitment (a) The Company may from time to time, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall deliver a copy thereof to each Lender), request that the Total Commitment be increased by an amount not to exceed the Incremental Facility Amount at such time. Such notice shall set forth the amount of the requested increase in the Total Commitment (which shall be an integral multiple of $10,000,000) and the date on which such increase is requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days or more than 60 days after the date of such notice), and shall offer to each Lender the opportunity to increase its Commitment by its Pro Rata Percentage of the proposed increased amount. Each Lender shall, by notice to the Company and the Administrative Agent given not more than 10 days after the date on which the Administrative Agent shall have delivered the Company's notice, either agree to increase its Commitment by all or a portion of the offered amount (each Lender so agreeing being an "Increasing Lender") or decline to increase its Commitment (and any Lender that does not deliver such notice within such period of 10 days shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment) (each Lender so declining or being deemed to have declined being a "Non-Increasing Lender"). In the event that, on the 10th day after the Administrative Agent shall have delivered the Company's notice, the Lenders shall have agreed pursuant to the preceding sentence to increase their Commitments by an aggregate amount less than the increase in the Total Commitment requested by the Company, the Company may arrange for one or more banks or other financial institutions (any such bank or other financial institution referred to in this clause (a) being called an "Augmenting Lender"), which may include any Lender, to extend Commitments or increase their existing Commitments in an aggregate amount equal to the unsubscribed amount; provided that each Augmenting Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the Company and each Augmenting Lender shall execute all such documentation as the Administrative Agent shall specify to evidence its Commitment and/or its status as a Lender hereunder. Any increase in the Total Commitment may be made in an amount which is less than the increase requested by the Company if the Company is unable to arrange for, or chooses not to arrange for, Augmenting Lenders.
Purchase of Shares in Offer Parent, the Purchaser or their affiliates shall have purchased Shares pursuant to the Offer; and
Increase in Commitment At any time during the Commitment Increase Period, Borrower may request that Agent increase the Total Commitment Amount from the Closing Commitment Amount up to an amount that shall not exceed the Maximum Commitment Amount. Each such increase shall be in an amount of at least Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), increased by increments of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), and may be made by either (i) proportionally increasing, for one or more Lenders, with their prior written consent, their respective Revolving Credit Commitments, or (ii) including one or more Additional Lenders, each with a new Revolving Credit Commitment, as a party to this Agreement (collectively, the “Additional Commitment”). During the Commitment Increase Period, the Lenders agree that Agent, in its sole discretion, may permit one or more Additional Commitments upon satisfaction of the following requirements: (A) each Additional Lender, if any, shall be an Eligible Transferee and shall execute an Additional Lender Assumption Agreement, (B) Agent shall provide to Borrower and each Lender a revised Schedule 1 to this Agreement, including revised Commitment Percentages for each of the Lenders, if appropriate, at least three Business Days prior to the effectiveness of such Additional Commitments (each an “Additional Lender Assumption Effective Date”), and (C) Borrower shall execute and deliver to Agent and the Lenders such replacement or additional Revolving Credit Notes as shall be required by Agent (and requested by the Lenders). The Lenders hereby authorize Agent to execute each Additional Lender Assumption Agreement on behalf of the Lenders. On each Additional Lender Assumption Effective Date, the Lenders shall make adjustments among themselves with respect to the Revolving Loans then outstanding and amounts of principal, interest, facility fees, utilization fees and other amounts paid or payable with respect thereto as shall be necessary, in the opinion of Agent, in order to reallocate among such Lenders such outstanding amounts, based on the revised Commitment Percentages and to otherwise carry out fully the intent and terms of this Section 2.9(b). Borrower shall not request any increase in the Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.9(b) if a Default or an Event of Default shall then exist, or immediately after giving effect to any such increase would exist.
Increase in Underwriters’ Commitments Subject to Sections 6 and 7 hereof, if any Underwriter shall default in its obligation to take up and pay for the Firm Shares to be purchased by it hereunder (otherwise than for a failure of a condition set forth in Section 6 hereof or a reason sufficient to justify the termination of this Agreement under the provisions of Section 7 hereof) and if the number of Firm Shares which all Underwriters so defaulting shall have agreed but failed to take up and pay for does not exceed 10% of the total number of Firm Shares, the non-defaulting Underwriters (including the Underwriters, if any, substituted in the manner set forth below) shall take up and pay for (in addition to the aggregate number of Firm Shares they are obligated to purchase pursuant to Section 1 hereof) the number of Firm Shares agreed to be purchased by all such defaulting Underwriters, as hereinafter provided. Such Shares shall be taken up and paid for by such non-defaulting Underwriters in such amount or amounts as you may designate with the consent of each Underwriter so designated or, in the event no such designation is made, such Shares shall be taken up and paid for by all non-defaulting Underwriters pro rata in proportion to the aggregate number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the names of such non-defaulting Underwriters in Schedule A. Without relieving any defaulting Underwriter from its obligations hereunder, the Company agrees with the non-defaulting Underwriters that it will not sell any Firm Shares hereunder unless all of the Firm Shares are purchased by the Underwriters (or by substituted Underwriters selected by you with the approval of the Company or selected by the Company with your approval). If a new Underwriter or Underwriters are substituted by the Underwriters or by the Company for a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters in accordance with the foregoing provision, the Company or you shall have the right to postpone the time of purchase for a period not exceeding five business days in order that any necessary changes in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and other documents may be effected. The term “Underwriter” as used in this Agreement shall refer to and include any Underwriter substituted under this Section 8 with like effect as if such substituted Underwriter had originally been named in Schedule A hereto. If the aggregate number of Firm Shares which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed to purchase exceeds 10% of the total number of Firm Shares which all Underwriters agreed to purchase hereunder, and if neither the non-defaulting Underwriters nor the Company shall make arrangements within the five business day period stated above for the purchase of all the Firm Shares which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed to purchase hereunder, this Agreement shall terminate without further act or deed and without any liability on the part of the Company to any Underwriter and without any liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter to the Company. Nothing in this paragraph, and no action taken hereunder, shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.
Issuance Notice Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, on any Trading Day during the Agency Period on which the conditions set forth in Section 5(a) and Section 5(b) shall have been satisfied, the Company may exercise its right to request an issuance of Shares by delivering to the Agent an Issuance Notice; provided, however, that (A) in no event may the Company deliver an Issuance Notice to the extent that (I) the sum of (x) the aggregate Sales Price of the requested Issuance Amount, plus (y) the aggregate Sales Price of all Shares issued under all previous Issuance Notices effected pursuant to this Agreement, would exceed the Maximum Program Amount; and (B) prior to delivery of any Issuance Notice, the period set forth for any previous Issuance Notice shall have expired or been terminated. An Issuance Notice shall be considered delivered on the Trading Day that it is received by e-mail to the persons set forth in Schedule A hereto and confirmed by the Company by telephone (including a voicemail message to the persons so identified), with the understanding that, with adequate prior written notice, the Agent may modify the list of such persons from time to time.
Offer Notice (i) The Company shall give written notice (the “Offering Notice”) to the Purchaser and the other Forward Contract Parties stating its bona fide intention to offer the New Equity Securities and specifying the number of New Equity Securities and the material terms and conditions, including the price, pursuant to which the Company proposes to offer the New Equity Securities and the applicable pro rata share of such New Equity Securities offered to the Purchaser pursuant to such Offering Notice.
