Registration Rights No Person has any right to cause the Company or any Subsidiary to effect the registration under the Securities Act of any securities of the Company or any Subsidiary.
Additional Registration Rights If Issuer at any time after the exercise of the Option proposes to register any shares of Issuer Common Stock under the Securities Act in connection with an underwritten public offering of such Issuer Common Stock, Issuer will promptly give written notice to Grantee of its intention to do so and, upon the written request of any Selling Stockholder given within 30 days after receipt of any such notice (which request shall specify the number of shares of Issuer Common Stock intended to be included in such underwritten public offering by the Selling Stockholder), Issuer will cause all such shares for which a Selling Stockholder requests participation in such registration to be so registered and included in such underwritten public offering; provided, however, that Issuer may elect to not cause any such shares to be so registered (i) if in the reasonable good faith opinion of the underwriters for such offering, the inclusion of all such shares by the Selling Stockholder would materially interfere with the marketing of such offering (in which case Issuer shall register as many shares as possible without materially interfering with the marketing of the offering), or (ii) in the case of a registration solely to implement an employee benefit plan or a registration filed on Form S-4 of the Securities Act or any successor Form. If some but not all the shares of Issuer Common Stock with respect to which Issuer shall have received requests for registration pursuant to this Section 10(b) shall be excluded from such registration, Issuer shall make appropriate allocation of shares to be registered among the Selling Stockholders desiring to register their shares pro rata in the proportion that the number of shares requested to be registered by each such Selling Stockholder bears to the total number of shares requested to be registered by all such Selling Stockholders then desiring to have Issuer Common Stock registered for sale.
Demand Registration Rights (a) The Company, upon written demand (“Demand Notice”) of the Majority Holders, agrees to register on one occasion all of the Registrable Securities. On such occasion, the Company will file a registration statement or a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement covering the Registrable Securities within forty-five (45) days after receipt of a Demand Notice and use its Reasonable Best Efforts to have such registration statement or post-effective amendment declared effective as soon as possible thereafter; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to comply with a Demand Notice if the Company has filed a registration statement with respect to which the Holder is entitled to piggyback registration rights pursuant to Section 8.3 hereof and either: (i) the Holder has elected to participate in the offering covered by such registration statement or (ii) if such registration statement relates to an underwritten primary offering of securities of the Company, until the offering covered by such registration statement has been withdrawn or until thirty (30) days after such offering is consummated. The demand for registration may be made at any time during a period of four years beginning one (1) year from the Base Date. The Company covenants and agrees to give written notice of its receipt of any Demand Notice by any Holder(s) to all other registered Holders of the Warrants and/or the Registrable Securities within ten days from the date of the receipt of any such Demand Notice.
(b) The Company shall bear all fees and expenses attendant to registering the Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 8.2(a), but the Holders shall pay all any and all underwriting commissions and the expenses of any legal counsel selected by the Holders to represent them in connection with the sale of the Registrable Securities. The Company agrees to use its Reasonable Best Efforts to qualify or register the Registrable Securities in such states as are reasonably requested by the Majority Holder(s); provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be required to register the Registrable Securities in a state in which such registration would cause (i) the Company to be obligated to register, license or qualify to do business in such state, submit to general service of process in such state or would subject the Company to taxation as a foreign corporation doing business in such jurisdiction or (ii) the principal stockholders of the Company to be obligated to escrow their shares of capital stock of the Company. The Company shall cause any registration statement or post-effective amendment filed pursuant to the demand right granted under Section 8(a) to remain effective for a period of nine consecutive months from the effective date of such registration statement or post-effective amendment. The Holders shall only use the prospectuses provided by the Company to sell the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement, and will immediately cease to use any prospectus furnished by the Company if the Company advises the Holder that such prospectus may no longer be used due to a material misstatement or omission.
No Registration Rights No person has the right to require the Company or any of its subsidiaries to register any securities for sale under the Securities Act by reason of the filing of the Registration Statement with the Commission or the issuance and sale of the Securities.
Registration Rights Agreements As a further inducement for the Purchaser to purchase the Private Placement Shares, at the time of the completion of the IPO, the Company and the Purchaser shall enter into a registration rights agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, pursuant to which the Company will grant certain registration rights to the Purchaser relating to the Private Placement Shares.
Registration Rights; Private Sales (a) If the Administrative Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Collateral pursuant to PARAGRAPH 9 hereof, and if in the opinion of the Administrative Agent it is necessary or advisable to have such Collateral, or that portion thereof to be sold, registered under the provisions of the Security Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), the Pledgor will use its best efforts to cause the applicable Issuer or Partnership to (i) execute and deliver, and use its best efforts to cause the directors, officers and representatives of the applicable Issuer or Partnership to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, necessary or advisable to register such Collateral, or that portion thereof to be sold, under the provisions of the Securities Act, (ii) to use its best efforts to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for a period of one year from the date of the first public offering of such Collateral or that portion thereof to be sold, and (iii) to make all amendments thereto and/or to the related prospectus which, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable thereto. The Pledgor agrees to use its best efforts to cause the applicable Issuer or Partnership to comply with the provisions of the securities or "Blue Sky" laws of any and all jurisdictions which the Administrative Agent shall designate and to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act. For the purposes of this SECTION 10.(A), "applicable Issuer or Partnership" shall mean each Issuer or Partnership which is a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Pledgor.
(b) The Pledgor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Collateral, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the applicable Issuer or Partnership to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if the applicable Issuer or Partnership would agree to do so.
(c) The Pledgor further agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Collateral pursuant to this PARAGRAPH 10 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Laws and applicable requirements of the Insurance Regulators. The Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this PARAGRAPH 10 will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders not compensable in damages, that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this PARAGRAPH 10 shall be specifically enforceable against the Pledgor, and the Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred under the Credit Agreement.
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.
Transfer of Registration Rights (a) A Holder may transfer all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to any transferee of Registrable Securities that represent (assuming the conversion, exchange or exercise of all Registrable Securities so transferred that are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for the Company's Voting Stock) at least 20% of the then issued and outstanding Voting Stock of the Company (each, a "Permitted Transferee"); provided, however, that (i) with respect to any transferee of less than a majority but more than 30% of the then issued and outstanding Voting Stock, the Company shall not be obligated to file a registration statement pursuant to a registration request made by such transferee pursuant to Section 2 hereof on more than two occasions, and (ii) with respect to any transferee of 30% or less of the then issued and outstanding Voting Stock, the Company shall not be obligated to file a registration statement pursuant to a registration request made by such transferee pursuant to Section 2 hereof on more than one occasion. No transfer of registration rights pursuant to this Section shall be effective unless the Company has received written notice from the Holder of an intention to transfer at least 20 days prior to the Holder's entering into a binding agreement to transfer Registrable Securities (10 days in the event of an unsolicited offer). Such notice need not contain proposed terms or name a proposed Permitted Transferee. On or before the time of the transfer, the Company shall receive a written notice stating the name and address of any Permitted Transferee and identifying the number and/or aggregate principal amount of Registrable Securities with respect to which the rights under this Agreement are being transferred and the scope of the rights so transferred. In connection with any such transfer, the term Zapaxx xx used in this Agreement (other than in Section 2(a)(iv)) shall, where appropriate to assign the rights and obligations hereunder to such Permitted Transferee, be deemed to refer to the Permitted Transferee of such Registrable Securities. Zapaxx xxx any Permitted Transferees may exercise the registration rights hereunder in such priority, as among themselves, as they shall agree among themselves, and the Company shall observe any such agreements of which it shall have notice as provided above.
(b) After any such transfer, the transferring Holder shall retain its rights under this Agreement with respect to all other Registrable Securities owned by such transferring Holder.
(c) Upon the request of the transferring Holder, the Company shall execute an agreement with a Permitted Transferee substantially similar to this Agreement.
Registration Rights Granted The Company hereby grants registration rights to the Purchaser pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement dated as of even date herewith between the Company and the Purchaser.
Incidental Registration Rights (a) If the Company, for a period of six (6) years commencing one (1) year after the Base Date, proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act (other than in connection with a transaction contemplated by Rule 145(a) promulgated under the Securities Act or pursuant to registration on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor forms) whether for its own account or for the account of any holder or holders of its shares other than Registrable Securities (any shares of such holder or holders (but not those of the Company and not Registrable Securities) with respect to any registration are referred to herein as, “Other Shares”), the Company shall at each such time give prompt (but not less than thirty (30) days prior to the anticipated effectiveness thereof) written notice to the holders of Registrable Securities of its intention to do so. The holders of Registrable Securities shall exercise the “piggy-back” rights provided herein by giving written notice within ten (10) days after the receipt of any such notice (which request shall specify the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by such holder). Except as set forth in Section 8.3(b), the Company will use its Reasonable Commercial Efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act of all of the Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by such holder, to the extent required to permit the disposition of the Registrable Securities so to be registered, by inclusion of such Registrable Securities in the registration statement which covers the securities which the Company proposes to register. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with each registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 8.3.
(b) If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act as contemplated by this Section 8.3 and such securities are to be distributed by or through one or more underwriters, the Company will, if requested by a holder of Registrable Securities, use its Reasonable Commercial Efforts to arrange for such underwriters to include all the Registrable Securities to be offered and sold by such holder among the securities to be distributed by such underwriters, provided that if the managing underwriter of such underwritten offering shall inform the Company by letter of its belief that inclusion in such registration statement and/or distribution of all or a specified number of such securities proposed to be distributed by such underwriters would interfere with the successful marketing of the securities being distributed by such underwriters (such letter to state the basis of such belief and the approximate number of such Registrable Securities, such Other Shares and shares held by the Company proposed so to be registered which may be distributed without such effect), then the Company may, upon written notice to such holder, the other holders of Registrable Securities, and holders of such Other Shares, reduce pro rata in accordance with the number of shares of Common Stock desired to be included in such registration statement and/or distribution (if and to the extent stated by such managing underwriter to be necessary to eliminate such effect) the number of such Registrable Securities and Other Shares the registration and/or distribution of which shall have been requested by each holder thereof so that the resulting aggregate number of such Registrable Securities and Other Shares so included in such registration and/or distribution, together with the number of securities to be included in such registration and/or distribution for the account of the Company, shall be equal to the number of shares stated in such managing underwriter’s letter.
