Public Offering The Company is advised by you that the Underwriters propose to make a public offering of their respective portions of the Securities as soon after the Registration Statement and this Agreement have become effective as in your judgment is advisable. The Company is further advised by you that the Securities are to be offered to the public upon the terms set forth in the Prospectus.
Offering If the staff of the SEC (the “Staff”) or the SEC seeks to characterize any offering pursuant to a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement as constituting an offering of securities that does not permit such Registration Statement to become effective and be used for resales by the Investor under Rule 415 at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices), or if after the filing of the initial Registration Statement with the SEC pursuant to Section 2(a), the Company is otherwise required by the Staff or the SEC to reduce the number of Registrable Securities included in such initial Registration Statement, then the Company shall reduce the number of Registrable Securities to be included in such initial Registration Statement (with the prior consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, of the Investor and its legal counsel as to the specific Registrable Securities to be removed therefrom) until such time as the Staff and the SEC shall so permit such Registration Statement to become effective and be used as aforesaid. In the event of any reduction in Registrable Securities pursuant to this paragraph, the Company shall file one or more New Registration Statements in accordance with Section 2(c) until such time as all Registrable Securities have been included in Registration Statements that have been declared effective and the prospectus contained therein is available for use by the Investor. Notwithstanding any provision herein or in the Purchase Agreement to the contrary, the Company’s obligations to register Registrable Securities (and any related conditions to the Investor’s obligations) shall be qualified as necessary to comport with any requirement of the SEC or the Staff as addressed in this Section 2(d).
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.
Piggyback Registration Subject to Section 4.8, if at any time the Registrant determines that it shall file a registration statement under the Securities Act (other than a registration statement on a Form S-4 or S-8 or filed in connection with an exchange offer or an offering of securities solely to the Registrant’s existing stockholders) on any form that would also permit the registration of the Registrable Securities and such filing is to be on its behalf and/or on behalf of selling holders of its securities for the general registration of its Common Stock to be sold for cash, the Registrant shall each such time promptly give each Holder written notice of such determination setting forth the date on which the Registrant proposes to file such registration statement, which date shall be no earlier than thirty (30) days from the date of such notice, and advising each Holder of its right to have Registrable Shares included in such registration. Upon the written request of any Holder received by the Registrant no later than ten (10) days after the date of the Registrant’s notice, the Registrant shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be registered under the Securities Act all of the Registrable Shares that each such Holder has so requested to be registered (a “Piggyback Registration”); provided, that if at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any equity securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such Piggyback Registration, the Registrant shall determine for any reason not to register or to delay registration of the equity securities covered by such Piggyback Registration, the Registrant shall give written notice of such determination to each Holder that had requested to register its Registrable Shares in such registration statement and thereupon, (x) in the case of a determination not to register, shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Shares in connection with such registration and (y) in the case of a determination to delay registration, in the absence of a request by the Holders to request that such registration be effected as a demand registration under Sections 4.1 or 4.2, shall be permitted to delay registering any Registrable Shares, for the same period as the delay in registering the other equity securities covered by such Piggyback Registration. If, in the written opinion of the managing underwriter (or, in the case of a non-underwritten offering, in the written opinion of the Registrant), the total amount of such securities to be so registered, including such Registrable Shares, will exceed the maximum amount of the Registrant’s securities which can be marketed (a) at a price reasonably related to the then current market value of such securities, or (b) without otherwise materially and adversely affecting the price, timing or distribution of the securities offered or the market for the securities offered, then the Registrant shall be entitled to reduce the number of Registrable Shares that each such Holder has so requested to be registered to that number which in the written opinion of the managing underwriter would permit all such Registrant securities to be so marketed. Such reduction shall be allocated among all such Holders in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the amount of Registrable Shares owned by each Holder at the time of filing the registration statement.
Demand Registration (a) (i) Provided that the Company does not have the Registration Statement filed pursuant to Section 2 effective and usable to such Holder or group of Holders requesting a Demand Registration under this Section, at any time after the date that the Company becomes a registrant under the Exchange Act, any Holder or group of Holders holding, in the aggregate, ten percent (10%) or more of the Registrable Securities issued and outstanding immediately following the effective date of the Plan (the “Initial Outstanding Amount”), shall have the right, by written notice given to the Company (a “Demand Notice”), to request the Company to register under and in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act all or any portion of the Registrable Securities designated by such Holder(s); provided, however, that (x) the estimated fair market value of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered is equal to at least $10 million (or the entire amount of Registrable Securities then owned by the Holders if the estimated fair market value of the remaining Registrable Securities is less than $10 million), and (y) prior to the time the Company is eligible to use Form S-3 for the registration of Registrable Securities for resale, such Holder(s), in the aggregate, shall only be entitled to one Demand Registration per calendar year pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3(a)(i) unless any Demand Registration does not become effective or is not maintained in effect for the respective periods set forth in Section 3(c), in which case the relevant Holder(s) will be entitled to an additional Demand Registration pursuant hereto. Following the time that the Company becomes eligible for use of Form S-3 (or any successor form), any Holder or group of Holders holding, in the aggregate, ten percent (10%) or more of the Initial Outstanding Amount, shall have the right to request the Company to register under and in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act all or any portion of the Registrable Securities designated by such Holder(s); provided, however, that the estimated fair market value of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered is at least $10 million (or the entire amount of Registrable Securities then owned by the Holders if the estimated fair market value of the remaining Registrable Securities is less than $10 million), provided, however, that there shall be no more than five (5) Demand Registrations pursuant to this Agreement.
Piggyback Registrations (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, whenever the Company proposes to register any of its equity securities under the Securities Act (other than a registration by the Company on a registration statement on Form S-4 or a registration statement on Form S-8 or any successor forms thereto) (each, a “Piggyback Registration”), whether for its own account or for the account of others, the Company shall give the Stockholders prompt written notice thereof (but not less than 5 days prior to the filing by the Company with the Commission of any registration statement with respect thereto). Such notice (a “Piggyback Notice”) shall specify, at a minimum, the number of equity securities proposed to be registered, the proposed date of filing of such registration statement with the Commission, the proposed means of distribution and the proposed managing underwriter or underwriters (if any and if known). Upon the written request (i) if a Piggyback Notice is required by this paragraph, of any Person that on the date of such Piggyback Notice is a Stockholder, given within 5 days after such Piggyback Notice is received by such Person, or (ii) if no Piggyback Notice is required by this paragraph, of any Person that on the date of approval by the Board of the filing of such Piggyback Registration is a Stockholder, within 5 days of such Board approval (any such Persons as described in (i) and (ii) above, each, a “Piggyback Seller”) (which written request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities then presently intended to be disposed of by such Piggyback Seller), the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities held by Piggyback Sellers with respect to which the Company has received such written requests for inclusion to be included in such Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as the Company’s equity securities being sold in such Piggyback Registration.
