Stock Options and Warrants At the Effective Time of the Merger, each outstanding option to purchase Company Common Stock (each, a "Company Stock Option"), whether or not granted under the Company Option Plan, and all outstanding warrants to purchase Company Common Stock the outstanding whether or not vested, shall by virtue of the Merger be assumed by Parent. Each Company Stock Option and Warrant so assumed by Parent under this Agreement will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions of such options immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger (including, without limitation, any repurchase rights or vesting provisions and provisions regarding the acceleration of vesting on certain transactions), except that (i) each Company Stock Option and Warrant will be exercisable (or will become exercisable in accordance with its terms) for that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the number of Company Shares that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Stock Option or Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock if the said product is equal to or less than the fraction of one-half (.5) of one Parent Common Stock or rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock if the said product is greater than the fraction of one-half (.5) of one Parent Common Stock, and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed Company Stock Option and Warrant will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per Company Share at which such Company Stock Option and Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Parent shall comply with the terms of all such Company Stock Options and Warrants and use its best efforts to ensure, to the extent required by, and subject to the provisions of, the Company Option Plan and permitted under the Code or other relevant laws and regulations that any Company Stock Option that qualified for tax treatment under Section 424(b) of the Code prior to the Effective Time of the Merger continue to so qualify after the Effective Time of the Merger. Parent shall take all corporate actions necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock for delivery upon exercise of all Company Stock Options and Warrants on the terms set forth in this Section 2.03(b).
Option Shares In addition, upon the basis of the warranties and representations and other terms and conditions herein set forth, at the purchase price per share set forth in Section 1(a), the Company hereby grants an option to the Underwriters, acting severally and not jointly, to purchase the Option Shares in proportion to the number of Initial Shares set forth opposite the names of the Underwriters in Schedule I hereto, plus any additional number of Option Shares which such Underwriter may become obligated to purchase pursuant to the provisions of Section 10. The option hereby granted will expire 30 days after the date hereof and may be exercised in whole or in part from time to time (but not more than twice) only for the purpose of covering over-allotments which may be made in connection with the offering and distribution of the Initial Shares upon notice by the Representatives to the Company setting forth the number of Option Shares as to which the several Underwriters are then exercising the option and the time and date of payment and delivery for such Option Shares. Any such time and date of delivery (a “Date of Delivery”) shall be determined by the Representatives, but shall not be later than three full business days (or earlier, without the consent of the Company, than two full business days) after the exercise of said option, nor in any event prior to the Closing Date, as hereinafter defined. If the option is exercised as to all or any portion of the Option Shares, the Company will sell to each Underwriter the proportion of the total number of Option Shares then being purchased which the number of Initial Shares set forth in Schedule I hereto opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Initial Shares, and each of the Underwriters, acting severally and not jointly, will purchase that proportion of the total number of Option Shares then being purchased which the number of Initial Shares set forth in Schedule I hereto opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Initial Shares, subject in each case to such adjustments among the Underwriters as the Representatives in their sole discretion shall make to eliminate any sales or purchases of fractional shares. The Underwriters may from time to time increase or decrease the public offering price of the Option Shares after the initial public offering to such extent as the Underwriters may determine.
Warrants and Options In the event that, during the term of this Agreement, subscription, spin-off, warrants, dividends, or any other rights or option shall be issued in connection with the Collateral, such warrants, dividends, rights and options shall be immediately delivered to Secured Party to be held under the terms hereof in the same manner as the Collateral.
Purchase of Option Shares Subject to all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company grants to the Representative on behalf of the Underwriters the Option to purchase, severally and not jointly, all or less than all of the Option Shares. The purchase price (net of discount and commissions) to be paid for each Option Share will be the same Purchase Price (net of discount and commissions) allocated to each Firm Share. The Option may be exercised in whole or in part at any time and from time to time on or before the 45th day after the date of this Agreement, upon written notice (the “Option Notice”) by the Representative to the Company no later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, at least one and no more than five business days before the date specified for closing in the Option Notice (the “Option Closing Date”) setting forth the aggregate number of Firm Shares to be purchased and the time and date for such purchase. Upon exercise of the 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 Firm Shares specified in the Option Notice. If any Option Shares are to be purchased, each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase the number of Option Shares that, together with the number of Firm Shares, is set forth on Schedule A opposite such Underwriter’s name. For purposes of this Agreement, “business day” means any day except Saturday, Sunday and any day which is a federal legal holiday or a day on which banking institutions in the State of New York are authorized or required by law or other governmental action to close.
Options and Warrants (a) As of the Effective Time, all options to purchase Common Shares issued by the Company pursuant to its stock option plans or otherwise ("Options"), whether vested or unvested, and the Company's stock option plan(s) under which Options have been granted shall be assumed by the Buyer. Immediately after the Effective Time, each Option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be deemed to constitute an option to acquire Buyer Common Stock on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Option at the Effective Time, subject to the adjustments contemplated by this Section 1.9(a). For all assumed Options, other than any Options issued as contemplated by Section 4.4(a) (referred to as the "Permitted Options"), each Option shall become an option to acquire a number of shares of Buyer Common Stock equal to the number of Common Shares subject to the unexercised portion of such Option multiplied by the Common Conversion Ratio (with any fraction resulting from such multiplication to be rounded down to the nearest whole number). The exercise price per share of each such assumed Option, other than Permitted Options, shall be equal to the exercise price of such Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, divided by the Common Conversion Ratio (with any fraction resulting from such division to be rounded up to the nearest whole cent). The number of shares purchasable under, and the exercise price of, each assumed Permitted Option shall not be adjusted in connection with the Merger and shall remain the same after the Effective Time. Following the Measurement Period, with respect to any Options assumed by Buyer pursuant to this Section 1.9(a) and still unexercised, other than Permitted Options, the holder of such assumed Option shall receive additional options, on the same terms and conditions and at the same exercise price per share in effect immediately prior to such issuance, to purchase a number of shares of Buyer Common Stock equal to the difference between (i) the number of shares of Buyer Common Stock subject to such assumed Option immediately prior thereto multiplied by a fraction, (A) the numerator of which is the Total Merger Consideration and (B) the denominator of which is 4,960,000 (with any fraction resulting from such multiplication to be rounded down to the nearest whole number), and (ii) the number of shares of Buyer Common Stock subject to such assumed Option immediately prior thereto. The exercise price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment shall not be adjusted. The term, exercisability, vesting schedule, status as an "incentive stock option" under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended, the "Code"), if applicable, and all of the other terms of the Options shall otherwise remain unchanged. In the event the Buyer receives a request to exercise any Option assumed by it following the Effective Time and prior to the expiration of the Measurement Period, Buyer shall notify the optionholder of the consequence of such exercise with respect to potential additional options contemplated by this Section 1.9(a).
Options and Convertible Securities The consideration per share received by the Company for Additional Shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to Section 3.3(2), relating to Options and Convertible Securities, shall be determined by dividing:
Share Options With respect to the share options (the “Share Options”) granted pursuant to the share-based compensation plans of the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Company Share Plans”), (i) each Share Option intended to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), so qualifies, (ii) each grant of a Share Option was duly authorized no later than the date on which the grant of such Share Option was by its terms to be effective (the “Grant Date”) by all necessary corporate action, including, as applicable, approval by the board of directors of the Company (or a duly constituted and authorized committee thereof) and any required shareholder approval by the necessary number of votes or written consents, and the award agreement governing such grant (if any) was duly executed and delivered by each party thereto, (iii) each such grant was made in accordance with the terms of the Company Share Plans, the Exchange Act, and all other applicable laws and regulatory rules or requirements, including the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), and (iv) each such grant was properly accounted for in accordance with IFRS in the financial statements (including the related notes) of the Company. The Company has not knowingly granted, and there is no and has been no policy or practice of the Company of granting, Share Options prior to, or otherwise coordinating the grant of Share Options with, the release or other public announcement of material information regarding the Company or its subsidiaries or their results of operations or prospects.
Additional Shares or Options The Company hereby agrees that until the consummation of a Business Combination, it shall not issue any shares of Common Stock or any options or other securities convertible into Common Stock, or any preferred shares or other securities of the Company which participate in any manner in the Trust Account or which vote as a class with the Common Stock on a Business Combination.
Stock Options; Warrants (a) At the Effective Time and without any action on the part of the parties hereto, (i) the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan, the 1993 Incentive Stock Option, Nonqualified Stock Option and Restricted Stock Purchase Plan (together, the “Company Stock Plans”) and (ii) each unexercised and unexpired stock option that is then outstanding under the Company Stock Plans or any other plan or arrangement under which the Company or its subsidiaries grants stock options, whether or not exercisable and whether or not vested (the “Company Options”), shall be assumed by Parent and such Company Options shall be converted into options to purchase Parent Common Stock (individually an “Assumed Option” and collectively the “Assumed Options”). Each Assumed Option shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions as set forth in the applicable Company Stock Plan and any agreement evidencing the grant of such Assumed Option, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that, as of the Effective Time, (i) the Assumed Options shall be exercisable for whole shares of Parent Common Stock, and the number of such shares shall be equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Assumed Option, whether or not exercisable, immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock, (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Assumed Option shall be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such Assumed Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent, (iii) all references in the Company Stock Plan and the agreement evidencing the Assumed Option to the Company shall be deemed to be references to Parent and (iv) all references in the Company Stock Plan and the agreement evidencing the Company Option to Company Common Stock shall be deemed to be references to Parent Common Stock. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.2, the conversion of any Assumed Options (regardless of whether such options qualify as “incentive stock options” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) into options to purchase Parent Common Stock shall be made in such a manner as would not constitute a “modification” of such Assumed Options within the meaning of Section 424 of the Code.
Rights, Options and Warrants If the Company distributes, to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, rights, options or warrants (other than rights issued or otherwise distributed pursuant to a stockholder rights plan, as to which Sections 5.05(A)(iii)(1) and 5.05(F) will apply) entitling such holders, for a period of not more than sixty (60) calendar days after the record date of such distribution, to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date such distribution is announced, then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula: where: CR0 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately before the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; CR1 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; OS = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; X = the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and Y = a number of shares of Common Stock obtained by dividing (x) the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants by (y) the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date such distribution is announced. To the extent such rights, options or warrants are not so distributed, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase to the Conversion Rate for such distribution been made on the basis of only the rights, options or warrants, if any, actually distributed. In addition, to the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants (including as a result of such rights, options or warrants not being exercised), the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase to the Conversion Rate for such distribution been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered upon exercise of such rights, option or warrants. For purposes of this Section 5.05(A)(ii) and Section 5.01(C)(i)(3)(a)(I), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle holders of Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date the distribution of such rights, options or warrants is announced, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, there will be taken into account any consideration the Company receives for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise thereof, with the value of such consideration, if not cash, to be determined by the Company in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner.
