The Initial Purchaser represents and warrants that it is a QIB, with such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as are necessary in order to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the Notes. The Initial Purchaser agrees to comply with the applicable provisions of Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Act. The Initial Purchaser hereby acknowledges that the Company and, for purposes of the opinions to be delivered to the Initial Purchaser pursuant to Section 7(a) hereof, counsel to the Company will rely upon the accuracy and truth of the representations contained in this Section 8 and the Initial Purchaser hereby consents to such reliance.
Registrations on Form S-3 The Holders of Registrable Securities may at any time, and from time to time, request in writing that the Company, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission), register the resale of any or all of their Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or any similar short form registration statement that may be available at such time (“Form S-3”); provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect such request through an Underwritten Offering. Within five (5) days of the Company’s receipt of a written request from a Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities for a Registration on Form S-3, the Company shall promptly give written notice of the proposed Registration on Form S-3 to all other Holders of Registrable Securities, and each Holder of Registrable Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Registration on Form S-3 shall so notify the Company, in writing, within ten (10) days after the receipt by the Holder of the notice from the Company. As soon as practicable thereafter, but not more than twelve (12) days after the Company’s initial receipt of such written request for a Registration on Form S-3, the Company shall register all or such portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities as are specified in such written request, together with all or such portion of Registrable Securities of any other Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in the written notification given by such Holder or Holders; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such Registration pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof if (i) a Form S-3 is not available for such offering; or (ii) the Holders of Registrable Securities, together with the Holders of any other equity securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such Registration, propose to sell the Registrable Securities and such other equity securities (if any) at any aggregate price to the public of less than $10,000,000.
Registration on Request (i) At any time (x) after the third anniversary of the date of the Closing, upon the written request of Shareholders holding in the aggregate 40% of all Registrable Securities then held by Shareholders (assuming for this purpose exercise of all outstanding Warrants) or (y) after an initial public offering, upon the written request of Shareholders holding in the aggregate 10% of all Registrable Securities then held by Shareholders (assuming for this purpose the exercise of all outstanding Warrants) (such Shareholders being referred to as the “Requesting Holders”), the Requesting Holders may request that the Company either (i) effect the registration under the Securities Act for an underwritten public offering of all or part of the Registrable Securities held by them (the “Single Registration Option”), (ii) effect the registration of all or any of their Registrable Securities by filing a registration statement under the Securities Act (the “Shelf Registration Statement”) which provides for the sale by the Requesting Holders of their Registrable Securities from time to time in underwritten public offerings pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (the “Shelf Option”), or (iii) permit the sale of Registrable Securities that are already included in an effective Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to an underwritten public offering (the “Takedown Option”); provided, however, that the Requesting Holders may not elect the Shelf Option or the Takedown Option if the request thereunder is in connection with or would constitute an initial public offering. Upon receipt of such request, the Company will promptly give written notice to all other holders of Registrable Securities (the “Other Holders”) that a request for registration or for a takedown has been received. For a period of 10 days (or two Business Days in the case of a Takedown Option request) following receipt of such notice, the Other Holders may request that the Company also register their Registrable Securities (or include Registrable Securities in such takedown) and the Company may determine to include its authorized and unissued securities in such registration or takedown. The failure of any Other Holder to affirmatively indicate its intent to include its Registrable Securities in such registration or takedown shall be deemed a waiver of any right to so include such Registrable Securities in such registration statement or takedown. After the expiration of such 10-day period or two-Business Day period, as the case may be, the Company shall notify all holders of the number of Registrable Securities to be registered or included. Subject to the provisions of this Section 3, in the case of either the Single Registration Option or the Shelf Option, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the prompt registration under the Securities Act of (A) the Registrable Securities that the Requesting Holders and the Other Holders have requested the Company to register, and (B) all other securities that the Company has determined to register, and in connection therewith will prepare and file a registration statement under the Securities Act to effect such registration. Such registration statement shall be on such appropriate registration form of the Commission as shall be selected by the Company, and such selection shall be reasonably acceptable to the holders of a majority of the aggregate Registrable Securities to be sold by the Requesting Holders. Subject to the provisions of this Section 3, in the case of a Takedown Option, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities so requested to be included in such underwritten public offering and shall prepare and file any prospectus supplement reasonably necessary to effectuate a takedown. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not be required to file a registration statement or proceed with a takedown in any of the following situations:
