Shares; Membership Interests (a) The total of the membership interests in the Company shall be divided into (i) Class A Ordinary Shares having the rights and preferences as set forth herein (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), (ii) Class A Preferred Shares having the rights and preferences as set forth herein (the “Class A Preferred Shares” and, together with the Class A Ordinary Shares, the “Class A Shares”), (iii) Class B Ordinary Shares having the rights and preferences as set forth herein (the “Class B Ordinary Shares”), and (iv) Class C Ordinary Share having the rights and preferences as set forth herein (the “Class C Ordinary Share” and, together with the Class A Ordinary Shares, the Class A Preferred Shares and the Class B Ordinary Shares, the “Shares” and each a “Share”). Class A Ordinary Shares, Class A Preferred Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares shall have the same rights, powers and duties, except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement. The number of Class A Ordinary Shares shall be limited to the maximum number of Class A Ordinary shares offered in the Offering, plus (i) the number of Class A Ordinary Shares which may be issued upon conversion of the Class A Preferred Shares, plus (ii) the number of Class A Ordinary Shares which may be issued upon conversion of the Class B Ordinary Shares. The number of Class A Preferred Shares shall be limited to the number of Class A Preferred Shares which may be issued pursuant to the Management Services Agreement. The number of Class B Ordinary Shares shall be limited to up to 1,000. The number of Class C Ordinary Shares shall be limited to one. Class A Preferred Shares issued pursuant to the Management Services Agreement (“ASA Shares”) may be subject to vesting provisions as set forth in the Management Services Agreement. The Shares of the Members shall be as set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto, which may be updated as set forth herein. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that all of the Class A Ordinary Shares are not sold pursuant to the Offering, the Board shall, upon the final closing of the Offering, issue a number of Class A Ordinary Shares to the Initial Member equal to the aggregate number of Class A Ordinary Shares that remain unsold in the Offering, as repayment in full of any and all obligations owing to the Initial Member in respect of advances made to acquire the Artwork and true-up fees payable to the Initial Member. The name and mailing address of each Member or such Member’s representative shall be listed on the books and records of the Company maintained for such purpose by the Company or the Transfer Agent.
(b) Prior to the date hereof and as set forth in the Original Agreement, the Initial Member has been issued 100% of the membership interests in the Company in return for a capital contribution of $100 (the “Prior Interests”). Upon execution of this Agreement, the Prior Interests shall be automatically converted into 1,000 Class B Ordinary Shares. As of the date of such conversion, the Class B Ordinary Shares shall constitute all of the membership interests of the Company and, prior to the issuance of Class A Ordinary Shares, Class A Preferred Shares and Class C Ordinary Share, shall have all of the rights and privileges of 100% of the membership interests in the Company afforded pursuant to this Agreement and applicable law.
(c) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, the Board shall have full power and authority to schedule one or more closings to issue Class A Ordinary Shares and admit Members to the Company in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Any Person that acquires Class A Ordinary Shares and is admitted as a Member of the Company after the date hereof, shall, in connection with such Member’s acquisition of such Class A Ordinary Shares, be deemed to pay to the Company such Member’s pro rata share of any amounts used to acquire the Artwork, including any true-up fees and any other amounts paid to the Company by the previously admitted Members.
(d) The Class A Members may elect to convert their Class A Preferred Shares into Class A Ordinary Shares, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the consummation of the Sale of the Artwork, subject to the terms and conditions herein, for no additional consideration. Each Class A Preferred Shares will automatically convert to one Class A Ordinary Share upon any Transfer of such Class A Preferred Shares to an entity that is not an Affiliate of the Administrator.
(e) The Class B Members may elect to convert their Class B Ordinary Shares into Class A Ordinary Shares, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the consummation of the Sale of the Artwork, subject to the terms and conditions herein, for no additional consideration pursuant and to the following conversion formula: The number of Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of Class B Ordinary Shares shall equal (A) the Value Increase, multiplied by (B) the Conversion Percentage, multiplied by (C) 20%, divided by (D) the Class A Ordinary Share Value. For purposes herein:
Purchase or Sale of Partnership Interests The General Partner may cause the Partnership to purchase or otherwise acquire Partnership Interests or Derivative Partnership Interests. As long as Partnership Interests are held by any Group Member, such Partnership Interests shall not be considered Outstanding for any purpose, except as otherwise provided herein. The General Partner or any Affiliate of the General Partner may also purchase or otherwise acquire and sell or otherwise dispose of Partnership Interests for its own account, subject to the provisions of Articles IV and X.
Membership Units The Company is initially organized with One (1) class of Membership Interests, designated in Units, which Units are initially the only class of equity in the Company. The Units shall have no par value and shall be of a single class with identical rights. The Company shall have a first lien on the Units of any Member for any debt or liability owed by such Member to the Company. Additional and different classes of Membership Interests represented by different Units may be created and issued to new or existing Members on such terms and conditions as the Governors may determine. Such additional and different classes may have different rights, powers and preferences (including, without limitation, voting rights and distribution preferences), which may be superior to those of existing Members. Members shall have no preemptive rights to acquire additional or newly created Units.
Exercise of Repurchase Right Any Repurchase Right under Paragraphs 15(a) or 15(b) shall be exercised by giving notice of exercise as provided herein to Optionee or the estate of Optionee, as applicable. Such right shall be exercised, and the repurchase price thereunder shall be paid, by the Company within a ninety (90) day period beginning on the date of notice to the Company of the occurrence of such Repurchase Event (except in the case of termination or cessation of services as director, where such option period shall begin upon the occurrence of the Repurchase Event). Such repurchase price shall be payable only in the form of cash (including a check drafted on immediately available funds) or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness of the Optionee for the Shares. If the Company can not purchase all such Shares because it is unable to meet the financial tests set forth in the Nevada corporation law, the Company shall have the right to purchase as many Shares as it is permitted to purchase under such sections. Any Shares not purchased by the Company hereunder shall no longer be subject to the provisions of this Section 15.
Call Option The Company shall have the option to "call" the Warrants (the "Warrant Call"), in accordance with and governed by the following:
(a) The Company shall exercise the Warrant Call by giving to each Warrant Holder a written notice of call (the "Call Notice") during the period in which the Warrant Call may be exercised.
(b) The Company's right to exercise the Warrant Call shall commence with the actual effective date of the registration statement described in Section 10.1(iv) of the Subscription Agreement and thereafter, shall be coterminous with the exercise period of the Warrants for a maximum of 50% of the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant (the "Warrant Shares"), provided, that the registration statement is effective at the date the Call Notice is given and through the period ending 14 business days thereafter. In no event may the Company exercise the Warrant Call at any time unless the Warrant Shares to be delivered upon exercise of the Warrant, will be upon delivery, immediately resalable, without restrictive legend and upon such resale freely transferable on the transfer books of the Company.
(c) Unless otherwise agreed to by the Warrant Holder, the Call Notices must be given to all Warrant Holders who receive Warrants similar to this Warrant (in terms of exercise price and otherwise) on or about the same issue date as this Warrant in proportion to the amounts of Common Stock which can be purchased by the respective Warrant Holders in accordance with the respective Warrant held by each.
(d) The Company may give a Call Notice in connection with up to 50% of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant provided the closing bid price of the Common Stock as reported by the Principal Market as defined in the Subscription Agreement, for each trading day during the thirty days prior to the giving of the Call Notice ("Lookback Period") is 200% of the Purchase Price and the average daily trading volume of the Common Stock during the Lookback Period is not less than 100,000 Common Shares. Subject to the other limitations set forth herein, the maximum amount of Warrant Shares for which Call Notices may be given during any thirty day period shall be equal to 10% of the aggregate reported trading volume of the Common Stock during the Lookback Period.
(e) The respective Warrant Holders shall exercise their Warrant rights and purchase the appropriate Warrant Shares and pay for same within 14 business days of the date of the Call Notice. If the Warrant Holder fails to timely pay the funds required by the Warrant Call, the Company may elect to cancel a corresponding amount of this Warrant.
(f) The Company may not exercise the right to Call this Warrant or any part of it after the occurrence of a Non-Registration Event, as defined in the Subscription Agreement, unless same were subject to cure and cured during the stated cure period.
Purchase Right Without prejudice to the enforcement of the Senior Secured Parties’ remedies, the Senior Secured Parties agree that following (a) the acceleration of the Senior Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement Loan Documents or (b) the commencement of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (each, a “Purchase Event”), within thirty (30) days of the Purchase Event, one or more of the Second Priority Debt Parties may request, and the Senior Secured Parties hereby offer the Second Priority Debt Parties the option, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the aggregate amount of outstanding Senior Obligations outstanding at the time of purchase at par, plus any premium that would be applicable upon prepayment of the Senior Obligations and accrued and unpaid interest, fees, and expenses without warranty or representation or recourse (except for representations and warranties required to be made by assigning lenders pursuant to the Assignment and Assumption (as such term is defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement)). If such right is exercised, the parties shall endeavor to close promptly thereafter but in any event within ten (10) Business Days of the request. If one or more of the Second Priority Debt Parties exercise such purchase right, it shall be exercised pursuant to documentation mutually acceptable to each of the Senior Representative and the Second Priority Representative, subject to any consent rights of the Borrowers under the First Lien Credit Agreement or any applicable Senior Debt Document. If none of the Second Priority Debt Parties exercise such right, the Senior Secured Parties shall have no further obligations pursuant to this Section 5.07 for such Purchase Event and may take any further actions in their sole discretion in accordance with the Senior Debt Documents and this Agreement.
Repurchase Right (i) (A) At any time prior to the fifth anniversary of the execution of the Partner Agent Agreement, if the Partner Agent Agreement is terminated by either the Company or the Purchaser, for any reason, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase the Shares currently held by the Purchaser for a price per Share equal to the lesser of (1) the purchase price per Share as provided herein or (2) the Current Market Price (as defined herein) of the Common Stock; and (B) at any time on or after the fifth anniversary of the execution of the Partner Agent Agreement, if the Partner Agent Agreement is terminated by either the Company or the Purchaser, for any reason, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase the Shares currently held by the Purchaser for a price per Share equal to the Current Market Price of the Common Stock. Such right of the Company may be exercised by providing a notice of repurchase (the “Repurchase Notice”) to the Purchaser not less than five business days prior to the date repurchase is to be made pursuant to this Section 4(e), specifying the date of such repurchase (the “Repurchase Date”) and the number of shares of Class B Stock to be repurchased. The Repurchase Notice having been so given by the Company, the aggregate repurchase price for the shares of Class B Stock to be so repurchased shall become due and payable on the Repurchase Date.
(ii) For purposes of this Agreement:
(A) “Current Market Price” per share of a security at any date herein shall mean the average daily Closing Price (as defined herein) of such security for the 20 consecutive Trading Days (as defined herein) preceding such date (subject to equitable adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other similar event involving a change in such security); provided, however, that in the case of the Common Stock, where no public market exists for the Common Stock at the time of exchange, the Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock shall be as determined by an independent investment banking firm experienced in the valuation of securities of property and casualty insurance companies and selected by the Company (at the Company’s expense); provided that, after receipt of the determination by such firm, the Purchaser shall have the right to select (at the expense of the Purchaser) a second such investment banking firm to make such determination, in which case the Current Market Price shall be the average of the two determinations; and provided further that such determination need not be made more frequently than once every six months and any determination shall be superceded by a good faith determination by the Company’s board of directors that shall be required if a material event reasonably likely to affect the value of the Common Stock (such as a placement of equity securities) should occur after the next preceding determination, whether by an investment banking firm or firms, or by the Company’s board of directors.
Co-Sale Right 3.1 An Offeror may not sell any of the Offered Shares until each of the Investors shall have been given the right (a “Co-Sale Right”), exercisable by Notice delivered to the Company and the Offeror within twenty (20) days from the date of the Company Notice, to sell to the proposed purchaser or purchasers (including, as applicable, the Company and any Electing Investors), upon the same terms and conditions offered by the Offeror, a number of shares up to the Investor’s Co-Sale Pro Rata Share of the Offered Shares (the “Co-Sale Shares”).
3.2 Any Investor who fails to notify the Company and Offeror within twenty (20) days after the Sale Notice of the exercise of the Investor’s Co-Sale Right (or who has exercised purchase rights under Section 2), shall have thereby waived Co-Sale Rights with respect to the Offered Shares.
3.3 If any Investor has made a timely exercise of a Co-Sale Right, to the extent that any prospective purchaser or purchasers prohibits such assignment or otherwise refuses to purchase shares or other securities from an Investor exercising its rights of co-sale hereunder (a “Co-Selling Investor”), the Offeror shall not sell to such prospective purchaser or purchasers any Shares unless and until, simultaneously with such sale, the Offeror purchases such Co-Sale Shares from such Co-Selling Investor for the same consideration and on the same terms and conditions as the proposed transfer described in the Sale Notice.
3.4 Each Co-Selling Investor shall, promptly after exercising a Co-Sale Right, deliver to the Offeror for transfer to the prospective purchaser or purchasers one or more certificates, properly endorsed for transfer, evidencing the Co-Sale Shares, Series A-1 Shares convertible into Co-Sale Shares or any combination of the two (and, if the Offered Shares included Series A Shares, the number of Series A Shares comprising Co-Sale Shares). If a prospective purchaser objects to the delivery of preferred stock in lieu of Common Stock, any Co-Selling Investor shall convert the Series A-1 Shares into Common Stock and deliver Common Stock as provided above. The Company agrees to make any such conversion concurrent with the actual sale of such shares to the proposed purchaser. Series A Shares may not be delivered to exercise a Co-Sale Right with respect to offered Common Stock or offered Series A-1 Shares.
3.5 If the Investors have not elected to purchase all of the Available Shares pursuant to Section 2, the Offeror may, during the 60-day period following the Settlement Date, offer the remaining unsold portion of the Available Shares (as reduced by any exercised Co-Sale Rights, the “Salable Shares”), along with any Co-Sale Shares, on terms and conditions (other than the time permitted to close the purchase) no more favorable to the Offeree than those specified in the Sale Notice, to the purchaser or purchasers identified in the Sale Notice. If the Offeror does not enter into an agreement for the sale of any of the Salable Shares and Co-Sale Shares within such period, or if such agreement is not consummated within thirty (30) days of its execution, the right provided under Sections 2 and 3 shall be revived as to the unsold Offered Shares, which shall not be sold unless first reoffered to the Company and the Investors in accordance with Sections 2 and 3. Any partial sale of Shares made pursuant to this Section 3.5 shall be allocated on a pro rata basis among Salable Shares and Co-Sale Shares.
3.6 On consummation of the sale of the Offered Shares and Co-Sale Shares, the Offeror shall transfer to the purchaser the stock certificate or certificates that the Investor has delivered to the Offeror pursuant to Section 3.4. The Offeror shall, upon receipt, remit to the Co-Selling Investor that portion of the sale proceeds to which such Investor is entitled by reason of its participation in such sale. To the extent that any prospective purchaser or purchasers prohibit such assignment or otherwise refuse to purchase shares or other securities from a Co-Selling Investor, the Offeror shall not sell any Offered Shares to the prospective purchaser unless, simultaneously with such sale, the Offeror purchases the Co-Sale Shares from such Investor.
Purchase and Sale of Membership Interests Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, Purchaser shall purchase from Seller, and Seller shall sell, assign, transfer and deliver to Purchaser, the Membership Interests free and clear of any Encumbrances.
Limited Preemptive Right Except as provided in this Section 5.9 and in Section 5.2, no Person shall have any preemptive, preferential or other similar right with respect to the issuance of any Partnership Security, whether unissued, held in the treasury or hereafter created. The General Partner shall have the right, which it may from time to time assign in whole or in part to any of its Affiliates, to purchase Partnership Securities from the Partnership whenever, and on the same terms that, the Partnership issues Partnership Securities to Persons other than the General Partner and its Affiliates, to the extent necessary to maintain the Percentage Interests of the General Partner and its Affiliates equal to that which existed immediately prior to the issuance of such Partnership Securities.
