Initial Purchase Price (a) Prior to Closing, the Company shall prepare (and, if requested by Purchaser, in consultation with Purchaser), and at least four Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Purchaser, a written statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth: (i) the Company’s good faith estimate and supporting calculations of (I) the Cash Amount (the “Estimated Cash Amount”), (II) the Net Working Capital (the “Estimated Net Working Capital”), (III) the Indebtedness Amount (the “Estimated Indebtedness Amount”) and (IV) the Transaction Expenses Amount (the “Estimated Transaction Expenses Amount”); (ii) payment instructions for the payment of the Closing Consideration; (iii) a list of and, as applicable, payment instructions for the payment of, each of the Transaction Expenses included in the Estimated Transaction Expenses Amount; and (iv) the calculation of the Initial Purchase Price and Closing Consideration derived therefrom. (b) During the preparation of the Closing Statement (if requested by Purchaser) and after the delivery of the Closing Statement, Purchaser and its Representatives shall have a reasonable opportunity to review and to discuss with the Company and its Representatives (a) the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ working papers and the working papers of the Company’s independent accountants, if any, relating to the preparation of the Closing Statement and the calculation of the Estimated Cash Amount, Estimated Net Working Capital, Estimated Indebtedness Amount and Estimated Transaction Expenses Amount and (b) the relevant books and records of the Company and its Subsidiaries relating to the Cash Amount, the Net Working Capital, the Indebtedness Amount or the Transaction Expenses Amount; and the Company and its Representatives shall reasonably assist Purchaser and its representatives in their review of the Closing Statement and the preparation thereof and reasonably cooperate with respect thereto. In the event Purchaser notifies the Company in writing prior to the Closing that it disputes any amount set forth in the Closing Statement, Purchaser and the Company shall cooperate in good faith to resolve any such dispute as promptly as practicable prior to the Closing Date. If, prior to the Closing, Purchaser and the Company agree in writing to any component on the Closing Statement, then such components of the Closing Statement shall be modified as so agreed. The Closing shall not be delayed if Purchaser and the Company are unable, after any such cooperation, to agree on all of the components of the Closing Statement and, except as otherwise agreed to by Purchaser and the Company in writing, the parties shall use the Closing Statement as delivered by the Company for purposes of determining the Closing Consideration (without limiting any of the provisions of this Agreement, including Article II). (c) From 12:00 a.m. on the Closing Date and until the Closing, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, make any dividend or distributions of Cash or incur any Indebtedness or Transaction Expenses (other than as a result of the Financing or as already fully reflected in the Closing Statement) or use any Cash to pay any Transaction Expenses or to repay any Indebtedness. If, as a result of a breach by the Company of any of its covenants contained in this Section 1.02(c), Cash, Transaction Expenses or Indebtedness shall have changed between 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date and the time immediately preceding the Closing, then any such changes shall be included in the calculation of Cash Amount, Transaction Expenses Amount and/or Indebtedness Amount (as the case may be) for purposes of the Closing Statement. (d) For purposes of this Agreement,
Offering by Initial Purchasers Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to and agrees with the Issuer that: (a) It is a qualified institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A under the Act (a “QIB”), and an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of the Act and acknowledges that it is purchasing the Securities pursuant to a private sale exemption from registration under the Act. (b) It has not offered or sold, and will not offer or sell, any Securities except (i) to those it reasonably believes to be qualified institutional buyers (as defined in Rule 144A under the Act) and that, in connection with each such sale, it has taken or will take reasonable steps to ensure that the purchaser of such Securities is aware that such sale is being made in reliance on Rule 144A or (ii) in accordance with the restrictions set forth in Exhibit A hereto. Each of the Initial Purchasers will comply with all applicable laws and regulations in each jurisdiction in which it acquires, offers, sells or delivers Securities or has in its possession or distributes the Pricing Disclosure Package, the Final Memorandum, any Issuer Written Communication or any such other material, in all cases at its own expense, except as provided in Section 5(m). (c) Neither it nor any person acting on its behalf has made or will make offers or sales of the Securities in the United States by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act) in the United States or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a) of the Act. (d) Each Initial Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Issuer and, for the purposes of the opinions to be delivered to the Initial Purchasers pursuant to Section 6(a) through 6(d), (i) counsel for the Companies and counsel for Holdings and (ii) counsel for the Initial Purchasers, respectively, may rely upon the accuracy of the representations and warranties of such Initial Purchaser, and compliance of such Initial Purchaser with its agreements, contained in paragraphs 4(a) through (c), above, and such Initial Purchaser hereby consents to such reliance.
Initial Purchasers See the introductory paragraph to this Agreement.
Forward Purchase Securities (i) The Company shall issue and sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall purchase from the Company, 2,500,000 Forward Purchase Units for a purchase price of $10.00 per Forward Purchase Unit, or $25,000,000 in the aggregate (the “Forward Purchase Price”). (ii) Each Forward Purchase Warrant will have the same terms as each Private Placement Warrant, and will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Warrant Agreement to be entered into between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as Warrant Agent, in connection with the IPO (the “Warrant Agreement”). Each Forward Purchase Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described in the Warrant Agreement, and only whole Forward Purchase Warrants will be exercisable. The Forward Purchase Warrants will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the Business Combination Closing and 12 months from the IPO Closing, and will expire five years after the Business Combination Closing or earlier upon the liquidation of the Company, as described in the Warrant Agreement. The Forward Purchase Warrants will be non-redeemable and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Purchaser or its Permitted Transferees (as defined below). For so long as the Forward Purchase Warrants are held by the Purchaser or its Permitted Transferees, the Forward Purchase Warrants will not be exercisable more than five years from the effective date of the Registration Statement in accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(f)(2)(G)(i). If the Forward Purchase Warrants are held by Persons (as defined below) other than the Purchaser or its Permitted Transferees, the Forward Purchase Warrants will have the same terms as the Public Warrants, as set forth in the Warrant Agreement. (iii) The Company shall require the Purchaser to purchase the Forward Purchase Units by delivering notice to the Purchaser, at least five (5) Business Days before the Business Combination Closing, specifying the date of the Business Combination Closing and instructions for wiring the Forward Purchase Price. The closing of the sale of Forward Purchase Units (the “Forward Closing”) shall be held on the same date and immediately prior to the Business Combination Closing (such date being referred to as the “Forward Closing Date”). At least one (1) Business Day prior to the Forward Closing Date, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Company, to be held in escrow until the Forward Closing, the Forward Purchase Price for the Forward Purchase Securities by wire transfer of U.S. dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by the Company in such notice. Immediately prior to the Forward Closing on the Forward Closing Date, (A) the Forward Purchase Price shall be released from escrow automatically and without further action by the Company or the Purchaser, and (B) upon such release, the Company shall issue the Forward Purchase Units to the Purchaser in book-entry form, free and clear of any liens or other restrictions whatsoever (other than those arising under state or federal securities laws), registered in the name of the Purchaser (or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions), or to a custodian designated by the Purchaser, as applicable. In the event the Business Combination Closing does not occur on the date scheduled for closing, the Forward Closing shall not occur and the Company shall promptly (but not later than one (1) Business Day thereafter) return the Forward Purchase Price to the Purchaser. For purposes of this Agreement, “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or a Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are generally authorized or required by law or regulation to close in the City of New York, New York.
Initial Public Offering (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein but subject to Section 4.01(d), in connection with any Initial Public Offering approved in accordance with this Agreement, the Members hereby agree to discuss in good faith whether any of the rights and obligations of the parties hereto and the Company under this Agreement should be amended, restructured or terminated, including, without limitation, whether any of the rights set forth in Section 4.01(d) or 8.04 hereof should be terminated or made subject to any time limitations (or time and volume limitations in the case of Section 5.04 hereof), in order to permit the Initial Public Offering to be effected in a manner consistent with applicable Law, market custom and the recommendations of the Global Coordinators in light of market conditions at such time and the listing requirements of the exchange or market on which the Initial Public Offering is to be effected, taking into account, among other things, the rights of the Preferred Members hereunder and their goal and expectation that the Preferred Payment be effected as promptly as practicable after the date hereof; provided, however, that this sentence shall not in any way either (x) obligate any of the Members or the Company to agree to any amendment, restructuring or termination of any such rights or (y) affect or nullify any rights or obligations of the Members or the Company under this Agreement. (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein but subject to Section 4.01(d), in connection with any Initial Public Offering of the Company (or its successor corporation) or any newly formed corporation as described below, approved in accordance with this Agreement, and upon the request of the Board of Managers, each of the Members hereby agrees that it will, at the expense of the Entity subject to such Public Offering, take such action and execute such documents as may reasonably be necessary to effect such Public Offering as expeditiously as possible, including, without limitation, taking all such actions and executing such documents as may reasonably be necessary to convert the Company into a corporation or to contribute its respective Securities to a newly formed corporation, in each case substantially concurrently with the closing of such Public Offering; provided, however, that in connection with any such conversion or contribution (i) each Preferred Member shall be entitled to receive preferred stock of the corporation whose shares of common stock are being sold in connection with such Public Offering with the same economic rights as such Preferred Member was entitled to prior to such conversion or contribution, including with an aggregate liquidation preference equal to the amount such Preferred Member would be entitled to receive, in respect of the Preferred Units which such Preferred Member held in the Company immediately prior to such conversion or contribution, under Section 5.02 hereof if a liquidation of the Company had occurred immediately prior to the consummation of such Public Offering with the proceeds in such liquidation equal in amount to the implied aggregate equity valuation of the Company (as reasonably determined by the Board of Managers in good faith with the reasonable agreement of a Majority in Interest of the Preferred Members) immediately prior to the consummation of such
Preferential Purchase Rights (a) Seller shall transmit all required notices with respect to preferential right to purchase provisions relative to any Property (“PPRs”) set forth in Schedule 4.1(n), promptly after the execution of this Agreement but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after execution of this Agreement by the Parties. Prior to the Closing, Seller shall notify Buyer if any PPRs are exercised or if the requisite period has elapsed without said rights having been exercised. (b) If a Person to whom a notice of a PPR has been given elects to purchase the Properties covered by such PPR in accordance with the Applicable Contract, then such Properties may be sold to such holder of the PPR subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and such Properties will not be sold to the Party originally executing this Agreement as “Buyer” (subject to the remaining provisions in this Section) and the Purchase Price will be reduced by the Allocated Value of such Property in accordance with Section 3.2(b)(iv). Upon the consummation of the sale of any Properties to the holder of such PPR, such Properties shall be deemed excluded from the transactions contemplated hereby for all purposes. (c) If by Closing, the time frame for the exercise of a PPR applicable to a Property has not expired and Seller has not received notice of an intent not to exercise or a waiver of the PPR, such Property shall be excluded from the sale under this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and the Purchase Price will be reduced by the Allocated Value of such Property in accordance with Section 3.2(b)(iv). (d) If, after the Closing, the holder of a PPR with respect to any Property excluded pursuant to this Section 6.9 fails to consummate the purchase of such Property in accordance with the terms and conditions of such PPR or if the time frame in which to exercise PPR expires without exercise, then, within ten (10) Business Days of Seller’s providing Buyer with notice thereof, Buyer shall purchase (at a purchase price equal to the Allocated Value thereof, as adjusted pursuant to Section 3.2 through the date of such assignment), and Seller shall assign to Buyer pursuant to an assignment in substantially the same form as the Assignment, such Property.
Dealer Manager Agreement By Dealer’s acceptance of this Agreement, Dealer will become one of the “Participating Dealers” referred to in the Dealer Manager Agreement and will be entitled and subject to the terms and conditions of the Dealer Manager Agreement, including, but not limited to, Section 8.4 of the Dealer Manager Agreement (or, in the event of a Follow-On Offering, the equivalent section of the applicable Follow-On Dealer Manager Agreement) wherein the Dealers severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Dealer Manager and each of their respective Indemnified Parties. Dealer hereby agrees to solicit, as an independent contractor and not as the agent of the Dealer Manager or of the Company (or their affiliates), persons acceptable to the Company to purchase the Shares pursuant to the subscription agreement in the form attached to the Prospectus and in accordance with the terms of the Prospectus or, in the event of a Follow-On Offering, the prospectus (a “Follow-On Prospectus”) and the subscription agreement applicable to such Follow-On Offering. Dealer hereby agrees to use its best efforts to sell the Shares for cash on the terms and conditions stated in the Prospectus (and, in the event of a Follow-On Offering, the applicable Follow-On Prospectus). Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to make Dealer an employee, agent, representative or partner of the Dealer Manager, or the Company, and Dealer is not authorized to act for the Dealer Manager or the Company or to make any representations on their behalf except as set forth in the Prospectus (or the applicable Follow-On Prospectus) and such other printed sales literature or other materials furnished to Dealer by the Dealer Manager, provided that the use of such sales literature and other materials has been approved for use in advance by the Company and all appropriate regulatory agencies (“Supplemental Information”).
Resale Shelf Registration Rights (a) Subject to any contractual lock-up applicable to any Holder, promptly following delivery by a Holder of an Exchange Notice pursuant to the Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, together with a written certification from such Holder, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company’s legal counsel, certifying to such Holder’s compliance with the factual requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) cause the Company’s legal counsel to deliver to the transfer agent for the Common Stock an opinion of counsel in such form as the transfer agent deems sufficient to cause any shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such Exchange Notice to be issued without legends restricting the transfer of such shares of Common Stock without the registration of such shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act prior to such transfer and (ii) deliver to such Holder shares of Common Stock in book-entry form free of any legend restricting the transfer of such shares of Common Stock without the registration of such shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act prior to such transfer. (b) If the Company is unable to deliver shares of Common Stock to the applicable Holder free of restrictive legends as contemplated by Section 2.1(a), the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file within 30 days following delivery by such Holder of an Exchange Notice, and cause to be declared effective as promptly as possible thereafter, a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form thereto providing for “short-form” registration) in accordance with Rule 415 under the Securities Act (such registration statement, a “Shelf Registration Statement”) or one or more prospectus supplements or post-effective amendments to an already effective Shelf Registration Statement to register the offer and sale of all Registrable Securities covered by such Exchange Notice through ordinary course brokerage or dealer transactions not involving an underwritten public offering; provided that if the Company has already filed a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.1(c) or 2.1(d) that is effective, the Company shall file any prospectus supplement with respect to all Registrable Securities covered by such Exchange Notice within five (5) days of receipt of the information reasonably required from the applicable Holder to be included in such prospectus supplement. (c) No later than 30 days following the one year anniversary of this Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file a new, or amend an existing, Shelf Registration Statement to permit the registration of all Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement, and to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective as promptly as possible thereafter. Any Shelf Registration Statement or amendment to an existing Shelf Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 2.1(c) shall include, and may be limited to, such disclosures as are required by Rule 430B under the Securities Act (referring to the unnamed selling security holders in a generic manner by identifying the initial offering of the securities to the Holders) in order to ensure that all of the Holders may be added to such Shelf Registration Statement at a later time through the filing of a prospectus supplement rather than a post-effective amendment. (d) If the Company files any Shelf Registration Statement for the benefit of one or more Holders, the Company shall include in such Shelf Registration Statement such disclosures as may be required by Rule 430B under the Securities Act (referring to the unnamed selling security holders in a generic manner by identifying the initial offering of the securities to the Holders) in order to ensure that all of the Holders may be added to such Shelf Registration Statement at a later time through the filing of a prospectus supplement rather than a post-effective amendment. (e) To the extent the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) (a “WKSI”) at the time any Shelf Registration Statement is filed by the Company pursuant to Section 2.1(b), the Company shall cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) on Form S-3. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to remain a WKSI (and to not become, and to seek relief from any determination by the SEC that it is, an ineligible issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act)) during the period during which the Registrable Securities remain Registrable Securities. If the Company does not pay the filing fee covering the Registrable Securities at the time the automatic shelf registration statement is filed, the Company agrees to pay such fee at such time or times as the Registrable Securities are to be sold in compliance with the SEC rules. If any automatic shelf registration statement has been outstanding for at least three years, at the end of the third year the Company shall refile a new automatic shelf registration statement covering the Registrable Securities that remain unsold. If at any time when the Company is required to re-evaluate its WKSI status the Company determines that it is not a WKSI, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to refile, and cause to be declared effective, the applicable Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or any successor form thereto providing for “short-form” registration). (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, in consultation with the Company’s lead independent director, in good faith determines that filing a Shelf Registration Statement or prospectus supplement, or causing a Shelf Registration Statement or post-effective amendment to any effective Shelf Registration Statement to become effective, pursuant to this Agreement would (i) materially impede, delay or interfere with any material financing, offer and sale of securities, acquisition, merger, tender offer, business combination, corporate reorganization or other similar significant transaction involving the Company, or (ii) require the Company to disclose material, non-public information that would otherwise not be required to be disclosed under applicable law and that the Company has a bona fide business purpose for preserving as confidential, then the Company may defer its obligation to pursue such filing and effectiveness pursuant to this Agreement for not more than 60 consecutive days following (i) delivery by a Holder of an Exchange Notice pursuant to the Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement or (ii) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement to be filed pursuant to Section 2.1(c), the end of such 30-day period.
Registration Rights Agreement The Company and the Initial Shareholders have entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) substantially in the form annexed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, whereby the parties will be entitled to certain registration rights with respect to their securities, as set forth in such Registration Rights Agreement and described more fully in the Registration Statement.
