Put Right (a) Upon the occurrence of a Put Event, the KO Shareholders shall have the right (a “Put Right”) to require the Majority Shareholders to purchase all, but not less than all, of the shares of Andina stock owned by them (except as provided in the next sentence) at the Put Price (calculated on a per share basis) as determined in Section 5.1(b). For purposes of this Section 5.1, the Shareholders agree that the shares of Andina stock subject to the Put Right shall include only the Shares currently owned by the KO Shareholders and any additional shares of Andina capital stock acquired by the KO Shareholders through the exercise of their preemptive rights. The KO Shareholders shall give written notice to the Majority Shareholders of their intention to exercise their Put Right within 15 days after the date of the first meeting of the KO Board of Directors which is held at least 30 days after the date upon which the KO Shareholders receive written notice of the determination of the Put Price pursuant to Section 5.1(b).
(b) Upon the occurrence of a Put Event, at the request of the KO Shareholders, the parties shall cause the Put Price to be determined as follows:
(i) If the shares to be purchased by the Majority Shareholders pursuant to the Put Right are shares of Series A Stock, the Put Price for such shares shall be mutually agreed upon by the KO Shareholders and the Majority Shareholders or, if the KO Shareholders and the Majority Shareholders are unable to agree within thirty days after the request by the KO Shareholders for the determination of the Put Price, the Majority Shareholders, on the one hand, and the KO Shareholders, on the other hand, shall each choose an internationally recognized investment banking firm with experience in the analysis of soft drink businesses, and each of those two firms within 60 days from the date of their engagement shall prepare an appraisal setting forth its determination of the Put Price. If such two firms do not agree on the Put Price and following such determination the KO Shareholders and the Majority Shareholders continue to be unable to agree upon the Put Price within ten days from the expiration of such 60-day term, the two firms shall, in good faith, select a third investment banking firm, which third firm shall be an internationally recognized firm with experience in the analysis of soft drink businesses. The third investment banking firm so selected shall within forty-five days from the date of its engagement prepare an appraisal setting forth its determination of the Put Price, which determination shall be final and binding to the parties. The cost of such investment banking firm(s) shall be borne equally by the KO Shareholders, on the one hand, and the Majority Shareholders, on the other. The KO Shareholders and the Majority Shareholders shall cooperate fully in selecting investment bankers and shall cooperate fully in their determination of the Put Price. If a party fails to select an investment banker or fails to cooperate with such banker as described herein, in either case, within ten days of receipt of a notice specifying such failure to cooperate from the other party or parties, the other party or parties shall, in good faith, cooperate with the investment banker already retained under the terms of this provision or, if not yet retained, select an investment banking firm of its sole discretion, to make a determination of the Put Price, which determination shall be final and binding on the parties. The parties shall instruct the investment banking firm so retained to deliver its written opinion as to the Put Price to the parties within thirty days following the selection of such banker. The Put Price of the shares of Series A Stock shall be the price that a holder of shares of Series A Stock would receive upon the sale of such shares in a transaction under market conditions between a willing seller and a willing buyer as of the date of the request by the KO Shareholders that the Put Price be determined.
(ii) If the Shares to be purchase by the Majority Shareholders pursuant to the Put Right are shares of Series B Stock, the Put Price shall be the Market Value of such shares of Series B Stock.
(c) If the KO Shareholders shall for purposes of this Agreement consent in writing to a Put Event, such prior written consent shall be deemed to be a waiver of their Put Right for purposes of the transaction as to which written consent has been given; provided, however, that such written consent shall not be deemed to be a waiver of their Put Right for purposes of any other transaction which might be deemed to constitute a Put Event.
Call Right (a) The holder of a Call Right may purchase Certificates of a given Series or Class from the Holders thereof prior to maturity if the applicable Supplement designates such Series or Class as a Callable Series, or upon the occurrence of a Tax Event or an Optional Redemption. The Call Terms shall be set forth in the applicable Supplement and shall include, without limitation, the following:
(i) the initial holder of the Call Right;
(ii) whether the Certificate Principal Balance or Notional Amount of each Certificate being purchased pursuant to the Call Right must be an Authorized Denomination;
(iii) the Call Date or Dates; and
(iv) the Call Price.
(b) A Call Right may be exercised at the option of the holder thereof, in accordance with the Call Terms, upon not less than 35 days' (or such shorter period acceptable to the Trustee or specified in the applicable Supplement) nor more than 60 days' prior notice sent via facsimile with transmission confirmed to the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office. Such notice to the Trustee shall include the Certificate Principal Balance (or Notional Amount) of the Certificates to be purchased and shall reference the Call Price and the Call Date. On or prior to the second Business Day following receipt of such notice from the holder of the Call Right, the Trustee shall notify the Holders of the Certificates by first class mail; such notices shall state:
(i) the Certificate Principal Balance (or Notional Amount) of Certificates to be purchased;
(ii) the Call Price;
(iii) the name and address of the Paying Agent;
(iv) that Certificates called for purchase must be surrendered to the Paying Agent in order to collect the Call Price;
(v) that interest on Certificates called for purchase pursuant to the Call Right ceases to accrue on and after the Call Date, and the only remaining right of Holders of such Certificates is to receive payment of the Call Price upon surrender of the Certificates to the Paying Agent; and
(vi) that, if any Certificate contains a CUSIP, CINS or ISIN number, no representation is being made as to the correctness of the CUSIP, CINS or ISIN number either as printed on the Certificates or as contained in such notice and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Certificates.
(c) If less than all of the Certificates are to be purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Call Right, the Trustee shall select the Certificates to be purchased in accordance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Certificates are listed or, if the Certificates are not listed on a national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as such Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem to be fair and appropriate. The Trustee shall notify the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar promptly in writing of the Certificates or portions of the Certificates to be purchased by the holder of the Call Right, provided, however, that this Section 4.08(c) shall not apply to Certificates subject to a Call Right due to a Tax Event or an Optional Redemption.
(d) Once such notice is mailed to the Holders, the Certificates called for purchase become due and payable on the Call Date and at the Call Price. Upon surrender of any Certificates to the Paying Agent, the Holders of such Certificates shall be paid the Call Price. Notice of purchase shall be deemed to be given when mailed, whether or not the Holder receives the notice. In any event, failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the purchase of Certificates held by Holders to whom such notice was properly given.
(e) At or prior to 12:00 noon on the Call Date, the holder of the Call Right to be exercised shall deposit with the Paying Agent by wire transfer in same-day funds money sufficient to pay the Call Price of the Certificates to be redeemed on that date.
(f) If a notice has been given in the manner provided above, the Certificates or portion of Certificates specified in such notice to be purchased shall become due and payable on the Call Date at the Call Price stated therein, together with accrued interest (if applicable) on and after such dates. Upon surrender of any Certificate in connection with the Call Right, such Certificate shall be paid and redeemed by the holder of the Call Right at the Call Price.
(g) Upon surrender of any Certificate that is purchased in part, the Depositor shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder a new Certificate equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of such surrendered Certificate.
Company Reacquisition Right In the event that (a) the Awardee’s employment terminates for any reason or no reason, with or without cause, or (b) the Awardee, the Awardee’s legal representative, or other holder of the shares of Common Stock subject to this Award, attempts to sell, exchange, transfer, pledge, or otherwise dispose of any portion of this Award prior to its distribution from the escrow established in accordance with Section 8 of this Agreement, the Company shall automatically reacquire such shares underlying the applicable portion of this Award, and the Awardee shall not be entitled to any payment therefore (the “Company Reacquisition Right”).
RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER, DIRECTOR, EMPLOYEE OR CONSULTANT The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by the Option until the date of the issuance of the shares for which the Option has been exercised (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date the shares are issued, except as provided in Section 9. If the Participant is an Employee, the Participant understands and acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in a separate, written employment agreement between a Participating Company and the Participant, the Participant’s employment is “at will” and is for no specified term. Nothing in this Option Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Service of a Participating Company or interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to terminate the Participant’s Service as a Director, an Employee or Consultant, as the case may be, at any time.
The Optional Shares; Option Closing Date In addition, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, and upon the terms but subject to the conditions herein set forth, the Company hereby grants an option to the several Underwriters to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to an aggregate of [•] Optional Shares from the Company at the purchase price per share to be paid by the Underwriters for the Firm Shares. The option granted hereunder may be exercised at any time and from time to time in whole or in part upon notice by the Representatives to the Company, which notice may be given at any time within 30 days from the date of this Agreement. Such notice shall set forth (i) the aggregate number of Optional Shares as to which the Underwriters are exercising the option and (ii) the time, date and place at which the Optional Shares will be delivered (which time and date may be simultaneous with, but not earlier than, the First Closing Date; and in the event that such time and date are simultaneous with the First Closing Date, the term “First Closing Date” shall refer to the time and date of delivery of the Firm Shares and such Optional Shares). Any such time and date of delivery, if subsequent to the First Closing Date, is called an “Option Closing Date,” and shall be determined by the Representatives and shall not be earlier than two or later than five full business days after delivery of such notice of exercise. If any Optional Shares are to be purchased, each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase the number of Optional Shares (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as the Representatives may determine) that bears the same proportion to the total number of Optional Shares to be purchased as the number of Firm Shares set forth on Schedule A opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Firm Shares. The Representatives may cancel the option at any time prior to its expiration by giving written notice of such cancellation to the Company.
Default Exceeding 10% of Firm Shares or Option Shares In the event that the default addressed in Section 6.1 relates to more than 10% of the Firm Shares or Option Shares, you may in your discretion arrange for yourself or for another party or parties to purchase such Firm Shares or Option Shares to which such default relates on the terms contained herein. If, within one (1) Business Day after such default relating to more than 10% of the Firm Shares or Option Shares, you do not arrange for the purchase of such Firm Shares or Option Shares, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of one (1) Business Day within which to procure another party or parties satisfactory to you to purchase said Firm Shares or Option Shares on such terms. In the event that neither you nor the Company arrange for the purchase of the Firm Shares or Option Shares to which a default relates as provided in this Section 6, this Agreement will automatically be terminated by you or the Company without liability on the part of the Company (except as provided in Sections 3.9 and 5 hereof) or the several Underwriters (except as provided in Section 5 hereof); provided, however, that if such default occurs with respect to the Option Shares, this Agreement will not terminate as to the Firm Shares; and provided, further, that nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the other Underwriters and to the Company for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.
Stockholder Rights The holder of this option shall not have any stockholder rights with respect to the Option Shares until such person shall have exercised the option, paid the Exercise Price and become a holder of record of the purchased shares.
Put Option The Company hereby grants to Lender an option (the “Put Option”) to sell all or any portion of the Issued Shares (the “Put Shares”) to the Company for a total purchase price of $195,000, pro-rated for any portion thereof (the “Put Price”). The Put Option may be exercised with respect to any amount that is equal to or less than the entire balance of the outstanding Put Shares, at any time during the earlier to occur of the following Put Option exercise periods (the “Put Period”): (a) the ten (10) Business Day period commencing on the first anniversary hereof, or (b) the ten (10) Business Day period commencing on the date which is nine (9) months after the date that the registration statement for the registration of the Issued Shares is declared effective by the SEC . If not exercised during the Put Period, the Put Option shall terminate and shall be of no further force or effect. The Put Option shall be exercisable by Lender’s delivery of written notice to the Company (the “Put Notice”). The Put Notice shall specify the date on which the closing of the purchase of the Put Shares shall take place (the “Put Closing Date”), which such date shall be no earlier than ten (10) days but no later than thirty (30) days from the date of the Put Notice. On or before the Put Closing Date, Lender will deliver to the Company the certificate(s) representing the Put Shares (duly endorsed for transfer by Lender or accompanied by duly executed stock powers in blank) and the Company shall tender to Lender the Put Price in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account at a bank designated by Lender. The Company and Lender acknowledge and agree that the Company’s obligation to purchase the Issued Shares from Lender pursuant to the Put Option is an Obligation secured by the Collateral and any related guarantees under the Loan Documents, and for so long as the Put Option is outstanding and, if exercised, the Put Price is not yet tendered, the Lender’s right to receive the Put Price shall be secured by the Collateral and any related guarantees under the Loan Documents. Lender’s right to exercise the Put Option shall not be transferred or assigned to any third party.
6.1 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to accelerate the exercise of the Put Option upon a Fundamental Transaction (as defined in the Loan Agreement), as follows: The Company shall send written notice of the proposed Fundamental Transaction (“Fundamental Transaction Notice”) no later than thirty (30) days prior to the date of the proposed consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, together with all relevant information relating thereto, in form sufficient to enable Lender to make an informed decision as to whether it should accelerate the Put Option. Within fifteen (15) days of Lender’s receipt of the Fundamental Transaction Notice, Lender shall advise the Company whether the Lender has elected to accelerate the exercise of the Put Option. Lender’s failure to timely notify the Company of Lender’s intention to accelerate the Put Option shall be deemed an intention to decline to accelerate the Put Option.
6.2 In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to accelerate the exercise of the Put Option following an Event of Default under the Loan Documents (which acceleration right shall not be waived if not exercised following a prior Event of Default), in which event the Put Price shall be added to the Obligations under the Loan Agreement and secured by the Collateral thereunder, and shall be immediately due and payable to Lender.
6.3 If any portion of the Note is converted into Common Stock pursuant to the Loan Documents, the Put Option set forth hereinabove, if not terminated by its terms herein, shall terminate.
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.
Voting Rights as a Stockholder Subject to the terms of the Insider Letter described in Section 4.4 hereof and except as herein provided, the Initial Stockholders shall retain all of their rights as stockholders of the Company during the Escrow Period, including, without limitation, the right to vote such shares.
