Option to Build If the dates designated by Developer are not acceptable to Connecting Transmission Owner, the Connecting Transmission Owner shall so notify the Developer and NYISO within thirty (30) Calendar Days, and unless the Developer and Connecting Transmission Owner agree otherwise, Developer shall have the option to assume responsibility for the design, procurement and construction of Connecting Transmission Owner’s Attachment Facilities and Stand Alone System Upgrade Facilities on the dates specified in Article 5.1.2; provided that if an Attachment Facility or Stand Alone System Upgrade Facility is needed for more than one Developer’s project, Developer’s option to build such Facility shall be contingent on the agreement of all other affected Developers. NYISO, Connecting Transmission Owner and Developer must agree as to what constitutes Stand Alone System Upgrade Facilities and identify such Stand Alone System Upgrade Facilities in Appendix A hereto. Except for Stand Alone System Upgrade Facilities, Developer shall have no right to construct System Upgrade Facilities under this option.
Option to Purchase Subject to Section 3.5, the Receiver hereby grants to the Assuming Institution an exclusive option for the period of ninety (90) days commencing the day after Bank Closing to purchase any or all owned Bank Premises, including all Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment located on the Bank Premises. The Assuming Institution shall give written notice to the Receiver within the option period of its election to purchase or not to purchase any of the owned Bank Premises. Any purchase of such premises shall be effective as of the date of Bank Closing and such purchase shall be consummated as soon as practicable thereafter, and in no event later than the Settlement Date. If the Assuming Institution gives notice of its election not to purchase one or more of the owned Bank Premises within seven (7) days of Bank Closing, then, not withstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Assuming Institution shall not be liable for any of the costs or fees associated with appraisals for such Bank Premises and associated Fixtures, Furniture and Equipment.
Option to Expand On or before expiration of the sixth (6th) month of the term, Tenant shall be required to lease the remainder 3,942 square feet of Rentable Space on the third (3rd) floor, at the same rental rate then being paid for the initial Premises. In addition, Tenant will have the right to expand during the first 6 months by leasing the approximately 15,165 square feet of Rental Space on the fourth (4th) floor (the “4th Floor Space”) as identified on Exhibit “B-1” attached to this Lease and incorporated herein by reference at the same rental rate then being paid in the initial Premises; provided, however, Landlord will continue to keep the 4th Floor Space available for lease to Tenant for one additional period of three (3) months (a total of nine months following the commencement date), but if Tenant elects to lease the 4th Floor Space between the expiration of the sixth (6) month and commencement of the ninth (9th) month following commencement of the Lease, the rental rate shall be increased by twenty-five cents (.25¢) per square foot, and Tenant improvements dollars will decline on a pro rata basis based on the remaining length of the term. If the Tenant does not elect to lease the fourth (4th) floor space during the initial nine (9) months following commencement of the Lease, Tenant shall have the right of first refusal to lease the 4th Floor Space in the event that Landlord receives an offer to lease the space, and any such right of first refusal shall be on the exact terms received and approved by Landlord from a third party offering to lease the 4th Floor Space. Tenant shall have the option to lease at then current market rental rates any additional space which is available in 5,000 rsf increments consisting of the area which is available on the second (2nd) and fifth (5th) floors designated and referred to as the “Expansion Space”, at any time during the lease term (the “Effective Date”) and ending on the expiration of the Lease Term (unless sooner terminated pursuant to the terms of this Lease, and subject to any rights of extension contained in this Lease) by delivering written notice to Landlord, provided that at the time of such notice and on the Effective Date, no event of default, as defined in Paragraph 25 of this Lease, shall have occurred and remain uncured beyond any applicable cure period. Once Tenant shall exercise an expansion option, Tenant may not thereafter revoke such exercise. Tenant’s failure to timely exercise an expansion option for any reason whatsoever shall conclusively be deemed a waiver of such expansion option. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Tenant’s option shall be subject to a determination by Landlord, in Landlord’s discretion, that Tenant’s financial condition at the time it makes such election is sufficient to meet its financial obligation associated with the Offered Space.
Option to Lease The Receiver hereby grants to the Assuming Institution an exclusive option for the period of ninety (90) days commencing the day after Bank Closing to cause the Receiver to assign to the Assuming Institution any or all leases for leased Bank Premises, if any, which have been continuously occupied by the Assuming Institution from Bank Closing to the date it elects to accept an assignment of the leases with respect thereto to the extent such leases can be assigned; provided, that the exercise of this option with respect to any lease must be as to all premises or other property subject to the lease. If an assignment cannot be made of any such leases, the Receiver may, in its discretion, enter into subleases with the Assuming Institution containing the same terms and conditions provided under such existing leases for such leased Bank Premises or other property. The Assuming Institution shall give notice to the Receiver within the option period of its election to accept or not to accept an assignment of any or all leases (or enter into subleases or new leases in lieu thereof). The Assuming Institution agrees to assume all leases assigned (or enter into subleases or new leases in lieu thereof) pursuant to this Section 4.6. If the Assuming Institution gives notice of its election not to accept an assignment of a lease for one or more of the leased Bank Premises within seven (7) days of Bank Closing, then, not withstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Assuming Institution shall not be liable for any of the costs or fees associated with appraisals for the Fixtures, Furniture and Equipment located on such leased Bank Premises.
Notice of Exercise of Option This Option may be exercised by the ---------------------------- Optionee, or by the Optionee's administrators, executors or personal representatives, by a written notice (in substantially the form of the Notice of Exercise attached hereto as Schedule B) signed by the Optionee, or by such administrators, executors or personal representatives, and delivered or mailed to the Company as specified in Section 14 hereof to the attention of the President or such other officer as the Company may designate. Any such notice shall (a) specify the number of shares of Stock which the Optionee or the Optionee's administrators, executors or personal representatives, as the case may be, then elects to purchase hereunder, (b) contain such information as may be reasonably required pursuant to Section 12 hereof, and (c) be accompanied by (i) a certified or cashier's check payable to the Company in payment of the total Exercise Price applicable to such shares as provided herein, (ii) shares of Stock owned by the Optionee and duly endorsed or accompanied by stock transfer powers having a Fair Market Value equal to the total Exercise Price applicable to such shares purchased hereunder, or (iii) a certified or cashier's check accompanied by the number of shares of Stock whose Fair Market Value when added to the amount of the check equals the total Exercise Price applicable to such shares purchased hereunder. Upon receipt of any such notice and accompanying payment, and subject to the terms hereof, the Company agrees to issue to the Optionee or the Optionee's administrators, executors or personal representatives, as the case may be, stock certificates for the number of shares specified in such notice registered in the name of the person exercising this Option.
Method of Exercise of Option The Option is exercisable by notice and payment to the Company in accordance with the procedure prescribed herein. Each such notice will: (a) State the election to exercise the Option and the number of shares in respect of which it is being exercised; (b) Contain a representation and agreement as to investment intent, if required by counsel to the Company with respect to such Shares, in form satisfactory to counsel for the Company; and (c) Be signed by the person entitled to exercise the Option and, if the option is being exercised by any person other than the Director, be accompanied by proof, satisfactory to counsel for the Company, of the right of that person to exercise the Option. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company will specify, by written notice to the person exercising the option, a date and time (the "Closing Date") and place for payment of the full purchase price of such Shares. The Closing Date will be not more than fifteen days from the date the notice of exercise is received by the Company unless another date is agreed upon by the Company and the person exercising the Option or is required upon advice of counsel for the Company in order to meet the requirements of Section 10 hereof. Payment of the purchase price will be made at the place specified by the Company on or before the Closing Date by delivering to the Company a certified or bank cashier's check payable to the order of the Company. The Option will be deemed to have been exercised with respect to any particular shares of Common Stock if, and only if, the preceding provisions of this Section 9 and the provisions of Section 10 hereof shall have been complied with, in which event the option will be deemed to have been exercised on the Closing Date. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, any notice of exercise given pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9 will be void and of no effect if all the preceding provisions of this Section 9 and the provisions of Section 10 have not been complied with. The certificates for shares of Common Stock as to which the option shall be exercised will be registered in the name of the person exercising the option (or, if the option is exercised by the Director and if the Director so requests in the notice exercising the Option, will be registered in the name of the Director and another person jointly, with right of survivorship) and will be delivered on the Closing Date to the person exercising the Option at the place specified for the closing, but only upon compliance with all of the provisions of this Agreement. If the Director fails to accept delivery of and pay for all or any part of the number of shares specified in the notice upon tender or delivery thereof on the Closing Date, his right to exercise the Option with respect to those undelivered shares may be terminated in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company. The Option may be exercised only with respect to full shares.
Option (a) In order to induce Parent and Purchaser to enter into the Merger Agreement, Stockholder hereby grants to Purchaser an irrevocable option (a "SECURITIES OPTION") to purchase the Securities (the "OPTION SECURITIES") at the Offer Price, subject to increase as set forth below (the "PURCHASE PRICE"). The Securities Option may be exercised, in whole but not in part, by written notice to Stockholder (as set forth below), for a period of ten (10) business days (the "10 DAY PERIOD") following termination of the Merger Agreement or termination of the Offer, whichever shall first occur; PROVIDED that, prior to such termination, either (i) a Trigger Event shall have occurred or (ii) (A) the Company shall have received a written proposal from any person other than Parent, Purchaser or any affiliate of Parent or Purchaser for an Acquisition Transaction, which proposal shall not have expired or been withdrawn, (B) the Merger Agreement shall have been terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 8.01(b), 8.01(d)(ii), 8.01(f) or 8.01(g) and (C) at the time of such termination the Minimum Condition shall not have been satisfied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Securities Option may not be exercised until: (i) all waiting periods under the Xxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR ACT"), required for the purchase of the Securities upon such exercise shall have expired or been waived and any other conditions under the other Antitrust Laws shall have been satisfied and (ii) there shall not be in effect any preliminary injunction or other order issued by any Governmental Entity prohibiting the exercise of the Securities Option pursuant to this Agreement; provided that if (i) all HSR Act waiting periods shall not have expired or been terminated or (ii) there shall be in effect any such injunction or order, in each case on the expiration of the 10 Day Period, the 10 Day Period shall be extended until five (5) business days after the later of (A) the date of expiration or termination of all HSR Act waiting periods, and (B) the date of removal or lifting of such injunction or order. (b) In the event that Purchaser wishes to exercise the Securities Option, Purchaser shall send a written notice (the "NOTICE") to Stockholder identifying the date (not less than two (2) nor more than five (5) business days from the date of the Notice) for the closing of such purchase, which closing shall be held at the executive offices of the Company (or such other place as the parties may agree). At the closing, Stockholder shall deliver to Purchaser appropriate and effective instruments of transfer of the Option Securities, against payment to Stockholder of the Purchase Price, in same day funds, by wire transfer to such account as Stockholder shall designate. (c) In the event the Option Securities are acquired by Purchaser pursuant to the exercise of the Securities Option (the "ACQUIRED SECURITIES") and, either before or at any time within the one-year period following such acquisition, Parent, Purchaser or any affiliate of Parent or Purchaser shall acquire Common Stock (other than from the Company) at a price in excess of the Purchase Price, then the Purchase Price hereunder shall be increased to such higher price. If the purchase of the Acquired Securities has been completed at the time of such increase, Stockholder shall be entitled to receive, and Purchaser shall promptly (and in no event more than 48 hours following such increase) pay to Stockholder, by wire transfer of same day funds to such account as Stockholder shall designate, the amount of the increase. (d) In the event the Option Securities are acquired by Purchaser pursuant to the exercise of the Securities Option, Stockholder shall be entitled to receive, and Purchaser shall promptly (and in no event more than 48 hours following such Sale) pay to Stockholder, upon any subsequent disposition, transfer or sale to an unaffiliated third party ("SALE") of all or any portion of the Acquired Securities within the one-year period following such acquisition, an amount per share in cash equal to the excess, if any, of the net proceeds received per share in the Sale over the Purchase Price. Any such payment shall be made by wire transfer of same day funds to such account as Stockholder shall designate.
Exercise of Option The Over-allotment Option granted pursuant to Section 1.2.1 hereof may be exercised by the Representative as to all (at any time) or any part (from time to time) of the Option Units within 45 days after the Effective Date. The Underwriters will not be under any obligation to purchase any Option Units prior to the exercise of the Over-allotment Option. The Over-allotment Option granted hereby may be exercised by the giving of oral notice to the Company by the Representative, which must be confirmed in writing by overnight mail or facsimile transmission setting forth the number of Option Units to be purchased and the date and time for delivery of and payment for the Option Units (the "Option Closing Date"), which will not be later than five full business days after the date of the notice or such other time as shall be agreed upon by the Company and the Representative, at the offices of the Representative or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Company and the Representative. Upon exercise of the Over-allotment Option, the Company will become obligated to convey to the Underwriters, and, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Underwriters will become obligated to purchase, the number of Option Units specified in such notice.
Taxation upon Exercise of Option Optionee understands that, upon exercise of this Option, Optionee will recognize income, for Federal and state income tax purposes, in an amount equal to the amount by which the fair market value of the Shares, determined as of the date of exercise, exceeds the Exercise Price. The acceptance of the Shares by Optionee shall constitute an agreement by Optionee to report such income in accordance with then applicable law and to cooperate with Company in establishing the amount of such income and corresponding deduction to the Company for its income tax purposes. Withholding for federal or state income and employment tax purposes will be made, if and as required by law, from Optionee’s then current compensation, or, if such current compensation is insufficient to satisfy withholding tax liability, the Company may require Optionee to make a cash payment to cover such liability as a condition of the exercise of this Option.
Rights Prior to Exercise of Option The Option hereby granted is non-transferable by Employee except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 5 hereof. During the lifetime of Employee, the Options hereby granted shall be exercisable only by the Employee. Employee shall have no rights as a shareholder in the shares of Stock purchasable pursuant to Options hereunder until payment of the purchase price and delivery.
