Pre-emptive Rights (a) Before the Company may issue and sell Additional Units to any Person, including an existing Member, the Company must first offer (the “Offer”) to sell such Additional Units to all of the existing Members in accordance with this Section. The Offer must be bona fide, be in writing and be an offer with respect to all of the Additional Units offered by the Company. The Offer must identify and set forth the number of Additional Units subject to the Offer, the purchase price thereof, which must be stated in United States dollars (the “Offer Price”), the terms of payment of the Offer Price and the closing date, which shall not be earlier than thirty (30) days or later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the date notice of the Offer is given to the Members (collectively, the “Offer Terms”).
(b) Effective upon the date the notice of the Offer is given by the Company to the Members (the “Notice Date”), each of the Members shall have the option to purchase, upon the Offer Terms, the number of Additional Units subject to the Offer multiplied by a fraction in which the numerator is the number of Units such Member owns and the denominator is the aggregate number of Units owned by all the Members. In order to exercise such option, a Member must give notice of such exercise to the Company within fifteen (15) days after the Notice Date.
(c) The closing of all purchases under this Section shall take place thirty (30) days after the Notice Date or such other time as the parties to such closing agree. If any Member (or such Members’ representative) fails to appear at the closing or appears and fails to purchase the Additional Units which such Member is obligated to purchase, the closing shall be adjourned two business days and at such adjourned closing such Member may purchase such Additional Units.
(d) If any Member does not exercise such Member’s option to purchase such Member’s proportionate share of the Additional Units, or if any Member exercises such option but fails to purchase such Member’s proportionate share of the Additional Units in accordance with Paragraph (c) above, the Company may sell the Additional Units not purchased by such Member pursuant to this Section to any Person, including any other Member, provided such sales shall occur not later than one hundred eighty (180) days after the Notice Date and only in accordance with the Offer Terms, except that the sales price may exceed the Offer Price.
Distribution of Additional Shares, Rights, etc If the Company or any affiliate of the Company determines to make any issuance or distribution of (1) additional Shares, (2) rights to subscribe for Shares, (3) securities convertible into Shares, or (4) rights to subscribe for such securities (each a “Distribution”), the Company shall notify the Depositary in writing in English as promptly as practicable and in any event before the Distribution starts and, if requested in writing by the Depositary, the Company shall promptly furnish to the Depositary a written opinion from U.S. counsel for the Company that is reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary, stating whether or not the Distribution requires, or, if made in the United States, would require, registration under the Securities Act of 1933. If, in the opinion of that counsel, the Distribution requires, or, if made in the United States, would require, registration under the Securities Act of 1933, that counsel shall furnish to the Depositary a written opinion as to whether or not there is a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 in effect that will cover that Distribution. The Company agrees with the Depositary that neither the Company nor any company controlled by, controlling or under common control with the Company will at any time deposit any Shares, either originally issued or previously issued and reacquired by the Company or any such affiliate, unless a Registration Statement is in effect as to such Shares under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Company delivers to the Depositary an opinion of United States counsel, satisfactory to the Depositary, to the effect that, upon deposit, those Shares will be eligible for public resale in the United States without further registration under the Securities Act of 1933.
Preservation of Purchase Rights Upon Merger, Consolidation, etc In case of any consolidation of the Company with or merger of the Company into another corporation or in case of any sale, transfer or lease to another corporation of all or substantially all of the property of the Company, the Company or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall execute with the Warrantholders an agreement that the Warrantholders shall have the right thereafter upon payment of the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action to purchase upon exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of shares and other securities and property which such holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or lease had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such action; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no adjustment in respect of cash dividends, interest or other income on or from such shares or other securities and property shall be made during the term of this Warrant or upon the exercise of this Warrant. Such agreement shall provide for adjustments, which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 5. The provisions of this Section 5 shall apply similarly to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or leases.
Pre-Emptive Right (a) The Company hereby grants to each Initial Shareholder (each, a “Pre-emptive Shareholder”) the right to purchase its pro rata portion of any new Common Shares (other than any Excluded Securities) (the “New Securities”) that the Company may from time to time propose to issue or sell to any Person.
(b) The Company shall give written notice (an “Issuance Notice”) of any proposed issuance described in subsection (a) above to the Pre-emptive Shareholders within five Business Days following any meeting of the Board at which any such issuance or sale is approved. The Issuance Notice shall set forth the material terms and conditions of the proposed issuance, including:
(i) the number of New Securities proposed to be issued and the percentage of the Company’s outstanding Common Shares, on a fully diluted basis, that such issuance would represent;
(ii) the proposed issuance date, which shall be at least 20 Business Days from the date of the Issuance Notice; and
(iii) the proposed purchase price per share.
(c) Each Pre-emptive Shareholder shall for a period of 15 Business Days following the receipt of an Issuance Notice (the “Exercise Period”) have the right to elect irrevocably to purchase, at the purchase price set forth in the Issuance Notice, up to the amount of New Securities equal to the product of (x) the total number of New Securities to be issued by the Company on the issuance date and (y) a fraction determined by dividing (A) the number of Common Shares owned by such Pre-emptive Shareholder immediately prior to such issuance by (B) the total number of Common Shares owned by all Initial Shareholders on such date immediately prior to such issuance (the “Pre-emptive Pro Rata Portion”) by delivering a written notice to the Company. Such Pre-emptive Shareholder’s election to purchase New Securities shall be binding and irrevocable.
(d) No later than five Business Days following the expiration of the Exercise Period, the Company shall notify each Pre-emptive Shareholder in writing of the number of New Securities that each Pre-emptive Shareholder has agreed to purchase (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where such number is zero) (the “Over-allotment Notice”). Each Pre-emptive Shareholder exercising its right to purchase its Pre-emptive Pro Rata Portion of the New Securities in full (an “Exercising Shareholder”) shall have a right of over-allotment such that if any other Pre-emptive Shareholder fails to exercise its right under this Section 4.01 to purchase its Pre-emptive Pro Rata Portion of the New Securities (each, a “Non-Exercising Shareholder”), such Exercising Shareholder may purchase all or any portion of such Non-Exercising Shareholder’s allotment (the “Over-allotment New Securities”) by giving written notice to the Company (within five Business Days of receipt of the Over-allotment Notice) setting forth the number of Over-allotment New Securities that such Exercising Shareholder is willing to purchase (the “Over-allotment Exercise Period”). Such Exercising Shareholder’s election to purchase Over-allotment New Securities shall be binding and irrevocable. If more than one Exercising Shareholder elects to exercise its right of over-allotment, each Exercising Shareholder shall have the right to purchase the number of Over-allotment New Securities it elected to purchase in its written notice; provided, that if the over-allotment New Securities are over-subscribed, each Exercising Shareholder shall purchase its pro rata portion of the available Over-allotment New Securities based upon the relative Pre-emptive Pro Rata Portions of the Exercising Shareholders.
(e) The Company shall be free to complete the proposed issuance or sale of New Securities described in the Issuance Notice with respect to any New Securities not elected to be purchased pursuant to Section 4.01(c) and Section 4.01(d) above in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Issuance Notice (except that the amount of New Securities to be issued or sold by the Company may be reduced) so long as such issuance or sale is closed within 180 days after the expiration of the Over-allotment Exercise Period (subject to the extension of such 180-day period for a reasonable time not to exceed 270 days to the extent reasonably necessary to obtain any Government Approvals). In the event the Company has not sold such New Securities within such time period, the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any New Securities without first again offering such securities to the Shareholders in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 4.01.
(f) Upon the consummation of the issuance of any New Securities in accordance with this Section 4.01, the Company shall deliver to each Exercising Shareholder certificates (if any) evidencing the New Securities, which New Securities shall be issued free and clear of any Liens (other than those arising hereunder or under Applicable Law and those attributable to the actions of the purchasers thereof), and the Company shall so represent and warrant to the purchasers thereof, and further represent and warrant to such purchasers that such New Securities shall be, upon issuance thereof to the Exercising Shareholders and after payment therefor, duly authorized and validly issued. Each Exercising Shareholder shall deliver to the Company the purchase price for the New Securities purchased by it by wire transfer of immediately available funds. Each party to the purchase and sale of New Securities shall take all such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the purchase and sale including entering into such additional agreements as may be necessary or appropriate.
Default Not Exceeding 10% of Firm Shares or Option Shares If any Underwriter or Underwriters shall default in its or their obligations to purchase the Firm Shares or the Option Shares, if the Over-allotment Option is exercised hereunder, and if the number of the Firm Shares or Option Shares with respect to which such default relates does not exceed in the aggregate 10% of the number of Firm Shares or Option Shares that all Underwriters have agreed to purchase hereunder, then such Firm Shares or Option Shares to which the default relates shall be purchased by the non-defaulting Underwriters in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder.
Registration Rights; Rights of Participation Except as set forth on Schedule 6(b) to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company has not granted or agreed to grant to any Person any rights (including "piggy-back" registration rights) to have any securities of the Company registered with the Commission or any other governmental authority which has not been satisfied. Except as set forth on Schedule 6(b) to the Registration Rights Agreement, no Person has any right of first refusal, preemptive right, right of participation, or any similar right to participate in the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.
No Rights as Shareholder Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a shareholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i), except as expressly set forth in Section 3. Without limiting any rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise” pursuant to Section 2(c) or to receive cash payments pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) and Section 2(d)(iv) herein, in no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.
Adjustments; Additional Shares, Securities or Assets In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5 or otherwise, Holder shall, upon Exercise of this Warrant, become entitled to receive shares and/or other securities or assets (other than Common Stock) then, wherever appropriate, all references herein to shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to refer to and include such shares and/or other securities or assets; and thereafter the number of such shares and/or other securities or assets shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and upon terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions of this Section 5.
Repurchase Rights If the Optionee for any reason whatsoever ----------------- (including without limitation death, disability, or voluntary or involuntary termination) ceases to be employed by the Company or Banyan Worldwide, or providing services on behalf of the Company or Banyan Worldwide, prior to the date specified in Section 8(d) below for the expiration of these restrictions, then during the 90-day period following such termination the Company may elect, by written notice delivered to the Optionee, to repurchase all or any portion of the Shares, at a price per share equal to the fair market value of such Shares as of the close of business on the date of termination of the Optionee's employment. Such fair market value shall be determined by mutual agreement of the Company and the Optionee. Failing such agreement between the Optionee and the Company within 30 days of the date of the Company's notice electing to repurchase such Shares, the fair market value of such Shares shall be determined by three appraisers, one designated within five days after the termination of said 30-day period by the Optionee or his or her legal representatives (which appraiser shall not be the Optionee or his or her legal representative), one within said period of five days by the Company (which appraiser shall not be an officer, director or employee of the Company) and the third within five days after said appointment last occurring by the two appraisers so chosen. Successor appraisers, if any shall be required, shall be appointed, within a reasonable time, as nearly as may be in the manner provided as to the related original appointment. No appointment shall be deemed as having been accomplished unless such appraiser shall have accepted in writing his appointment as such within the time limited for his appointment. Notice of each appointment of an appraiser shall be given promptly to the other parties in interest. Any expenses relating to the appointment and service of an appraiser shall be paid by the party appointing such appraiser or, in the case of the appraiser appointed by the appraisers chosen by the Company and the Optionee, shall be paid by the Company. Said appraisers shall proceed promptly to determine the fair market value of said Share or Shares by agreement of any two of the appraisers, which shall be conclusive upon all parties in interest in such Shares. Promptly following such determination, the appraisers shall mail or deliver such notice of such determination to the Optionee and the Company.
No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i), except as expressly set forth in Section 3. Without limiting any rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise” pursuant to Section 2(c) or to receive cash payments pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) and Section 2(d)(iv) herein, in no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.
