Initial Registration The Company shall file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act promptly, but in any event within thirty (30) days following the Closing, to permit the public resale of all the Registrable Securities held by the Holders from time to time as permitted by Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar provision adopted by the Commission then in effect) (“Rule 415”) on the terms and conditions specified in this subsection 2.1.1 and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but in no event later than sixty (60) days following the filing deadline (the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, that the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to ninety (90) days after the filing deadline if the Registration Statement is reviewed by, and receives comments from, the Commission. The Registration Statement filed with the Commission pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 shall be a shelf registration statement on Form S-1 (a “Form S-1”) or such other form of registration statement as is then available to effect a registration for resale of such Registrable Securities, covering such Registrable Securities, and shall contain a Prospectus in such form as to permit any Holder to sell such Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415 at any time beginning on the effective date for such Registration Statement. A Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 shall provide for the resale pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, the Holders. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 to remain effective, and to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available or, if not available, that another Registration Statement is available, for the resale of all the Registrable Securities held by the Holders until all such Registrable Securities have ceased to be Registrable Securities. As soon as practicable following the effective date of a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1, but in any event within two (2) business days of such date, the Company shall notify the Holders of the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. When effective, a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 (including the documents incorporated therein by reference) will comply as to form in all material respects with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and will not contain a Misstatement.
NERC Registration The NTO shall register or enter into agreement with a NERC registered entity for all required NERC functions applicable to the NTO, that may include, without limitation, those functions designated by NERC to be: “Transmission Owner” and “Transmission Planner” and “Transmission Operator.” The Parties agree to negotiate in good faith the compliance obligations for the NERC functions applicable to, and to be performed by, each Party with respect to the NTO’s facilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the ISO shall register for the “Transmission Operator” function for all NTO Transmission Facilities under ISO Operational Control identified in Appendix A-1 of this Agreement.
SEC Registration The Parties mutually agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain effective registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the long-term incentive awards to the extent any such registration statement is required by applicable Law.
Additional Registration Statement To the extent that the Registration Statement is not available for the sales of the Shares as contemplated by this Agreement, the Company shall file a new registration statement with respect to any additional shares of Common Stock necessary to complete such sales of the Shares and shall cause such registration statement to become effective as promptly as practicable. After the effectiveness of any such registration statement, all references to “Registration Statement” included in this Agreement shall be deemed to include such new registration statement, including all documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3, and all references to “Base Prospectus” included in this Agreement shall be deemed to include the final form of prospectus, including all documents incorporated therein by reference, included in any such registration statement at the time such registration statement became effective.
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.
Form S-3 Registration In case the Company shall receive from Preferred Stock Holders a written request that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3, subject to the limitations and qualifications set forth in Section 3.4(b), and any related qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable Securities owned by such Preferred Stock Holder or Preferred Stock Holders, the Company agrees:
(a) to promptly give written notice of the proposed registration, and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders; and
(b) as soon as practicable after receiving such a request, to effect such registration and all such qualifications and compliances as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Preferred Stock Holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holders joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration, qualification, or compliance pursuant to this Section 3.4 if (i) Form S-3 is not available for such offering by the Holders; (ii) the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public of less than $2,000,000; (iii) the Company furnishes to the Holders a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such Form S-3 registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3 registration statement for a period of not more than sixty (60) days after receipt of the request of the Preferred Stock Holders under this Section 3.4, provided, however, that the Company shall not utilize this right more than once in any eighteen (18) month period; or (iv) the Company has effected two (2) registrations on Form S-3 (or its then equivalent) pursuant to this Section 3.4 during such calendar year and such registrations have been declared or ordered effective and the sales of Registrable Securities under such registration statement have closed.
(c) Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall not be counted as demands for registration or registrations effected pursuant to Sections 3.2 or 3.3.
Additional Registration Statements Until the Applicable Date (as defined below) and at any time thereafter while any Registration Statement is not effective or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use or any Current Public Information Failure (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) exists, the Company shall not file a registration statement or an offering statement under the 1933 Act relating to securities that are not the Registrable Securities (other than a registration statement on Form S-8 or such supplements or amendments to registration statements that are outstanding and have been declared effective by the SEC as of the date hereof (solely to the extent necessary to keep such registration statements effective and available and not with respect to any Subsequent Placement)). “Applicable Date” means the earlier of (x) the first date on which the resale by the Buyers of all the Registrable Securities required to be filed on the initial Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement is declared effective by the SEC (and each prospectus contained therein is available for use on such date) or (y) the first date on which all of the Registrable Securities are eligible to be resold by the Buyers pursuant to Rule 144 (or, if a Current Public Information Failure has occurred and is continuing, such later date after which the Company has cured such Current Public Information Failure).
Initial Registration Periods Initial registrations of registered names may be made in the registry in one (1) year increments for up to a maximum of ten (10) years. For the avoidance of doubt, initial registrations of registered names may not exceed ten (10) years.
Effectiveness of Registration No Shares shall be offered by either you or the Fund under any of the provisions of this Agreement and no orders for the purchase or sale of such Shares under this Agreement shall be accepted by the Fund if and so long as the effectiveness of the registration statement then in effect or any necessary amendments thereto shall be suspended under any of the provisions of the 1933 Act, or if and so long as a current prospectus as required by Section 5(b) (2) of the 1933 Act is not on file with the SEC; provided, however, that nothing contained in this paragraph 5 shall in any way restrict or have any application to or bearing upon the Fund's obligation to repurchase its Shares from any shareholder in accordance with the provisions of the Fund's prospectus, statement of additional information or charter documents, as amended from time to time.
Incidental Registration (i) Whenever the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement (other than a registration relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a Company stock or equity compensation plan, a registration relating to a corporate reorganization or other transaction under Rule 145 of the Securities Act, a registration on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable Shares, or a registration in which the only Common Stock being registered is Common Stock issuable upon conversion of debt securities that are also being registered, at any time and from time to time, it will, prior to such filing, give written notice to all Holders of its intention to do so and, upon the written request of a Holder or Holders given within twenty (20) days after the Company provides such notice, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to cause all Registrable Shares which the Company has been requested by such Holder or Holders to register to be registered under the Securities Act; provided that the Company shall have the right to postpone or withdraw any registration effected pursuant to this Section C without obligation to any Holder other than pursuant to Section E.
(ii) In connection with any offering under this Section C involving an underwriting, the Company shall not be required to include any Registrable Shares in such underwriting unless the Holders thereof accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it, and then only in such quantity, subject to the restrictions set forth below, as will not, in the written opinion of the underwriters, jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. If in the written opinion of the managing underwriter the registration of all, or part of, the Registrable Shares that the Holders have requested to be included would adversely affect such public offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the underwriting only that number of Registrable Shares that the managing underwriter believes may be sold without causing such adverse effect. If the number of Registrable Shares to be included in the underwriting in accordance with the foregoing is less than the total number of shares which the Holders of Registrable Shares have requested to be included, then the Company may include all securities proposed to be registered by the Company to be sold for its own account; provided, however, that the number of Registrable Shares shall not be reduced unless all other securities of the Company are first excluded from the underwriting (including securities held by employees, officers and directors) and the Holders of Registrable Shares who have requested registration shall participate in the underwriting pro rata based upon their total ownership of shares of Common Stock of the Company. If any Holder would thus be entitled to include more shares than such Holder requested to be registered, the excess shall be allocated among other requesting Holders pro rata based upon their total ownership of Registrable Shares.
(iii) All Holders of Registrable Shares proposing to distribute their securities in an offering under this Section C involving an underwriting shall (together with the Company and other shareholders, if any, of securities distributing their shares through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for the underwriting.
