Anti-Dilution If prior to the exercise of any option granted hereunder Optionor shall have effected one or more stock split-ups, stock dividends, or other increases or reductions of the number of Shares of its common stock outstanding without receiving compensation therefor in money, services or property, the number of Shares of common stock subject to the options hereby granted shall (a) if a net increase shall have been effected in the number of outstanding shares of Optionor's common stock, be proportionately increased and the cash consideration payable per Share shall be proportionately reduced; and (b) if a net reduction shall have been effected in the number of outstanding Shares of Optionor's common stock, be proportionately reduced and the cash consideration payable per Share be proportionately increased.
Anti-Dilution Rights (a) If at any time after the date hereof the Company declares or authorizes any dividend (other than a cash dividend), stock split, reverse stock split, combination, exchange of Shares, or there occurs any recapitalization, reclassification (including any consolidation or merger), sale or acquisition of property or stock, reorganization or liquidation, or if the outstanding Shares are changed into the same or a different number of Shares of the same or another class or classes of stock of the Company, then the Company shall cause effective provision to be made so that the Holder shall, upon exercise of this Warrant following such event, be entitled to receive the number of shares of stock or other securities or the cash or property of the Company (or of the successor corporation or other entity resulting from any consolidation or merger) to which the Warrant Shares (and any other securities) deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled if this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to the earlier of (i) such event and (ii) the record date, if any, set for determining the stockholders entitled to participate in such event, and the Exercise Price shall be adjusted appropriately so that the aggregate amount payable by the Holder upon the full exercise of this Warrant remains the same. The Company shall not effect any recapitalization, reclassification (including any consolidation or merger) unless, upon the consummation thereof, the successor corporation or entity shall assume by written instrument the obligation to deliver to the Holder the shares of stock, securities, cash or property that the Holder shall be entitled to acquire in accordance with the foregoing provisions, which instrument shall contain provisions calculated to ensure for the Holder, to the greatest extent practicable, the benefits provided for in this Warrant.
(b) If, pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph 7, the Holder would be entitled to receive shares of stock or other securities upon the exercise of this Warrant in addition to the Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, then the Company shall at all times reserve and keep available sufficient shares of other securities to permit the Company to issue such additional shares or other securities upon the exercise of this Warrant.
(c) The Company shall at any time if so requested by the Holder furnish a written summary of all adjustments made pursuant to this paragraph 7 promptly following any such request.
Dilutive Issuances For so long as any Notes or Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall not, in any manner, enter into or affect any Dilutive Issuance (as defined in the Notes) if the effect of such Dilutive Issuance is to cause the Company to be required to issue upon conversion of any Notes or exercise of any Warrant any shares of Common Stock in excess of that number of shares of Common Stock which the Company may issue upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants without breaching the Company’s obligations under the rules or regulations of the Principal Market.
Dilution The Company is aware and acknowledges that issuance of shares of the Company's Common Stock could cause dilution to existing shareholders and could significantly increase the outstanding number of shares of Common Stock.
Adjustments for Diluting Issuances Without duplication of any adjustment otherwise provided for in this Section 2, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares shall be subject to anti-dilution adjustment from time to time in the manner set forth in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation as if the Shares were issued and outstanding on and as of the date of any such required adjustment.
Exchange in Lieu of Conversion (a) When a Holder surrenders its Notes for conversion, the Company may, at its election (an “Exchange Election”), direct the Conversion Agent to deliver, on or prior to the Trading Day immediately following the Conversion Date, such Notes to one or more financial institutions designated by the Company (each, a “Designated Financial Institution”) for exchange in lieu of conversion. In order to accept any Notes surrendered for conversion, the Designated Financial Institution(s) must agree to timely pay and/or deliver, as the case may be, in exchange for such Notes, the cash, shares of Common Stock or combination thereof that would otherwise be due upon conversion pursuant to Section 14.02 or such other amount agreed to by the Holder and the Designated Financial Institution(s) (the “Conversion Consideration”). If the Company makes an Exchange Election, the Company shall, by the close of business on the Trading Day following the relevant Conversion Date, notify in writing the Trustee, the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) and the Holder surrendering Notes for conversion that the Company has made the Exchange Election, and the Company shall promptly notify the Designated Financial Institution(s) of the relevant deadline for delivery of the Conversion Consideration and the type of Conversion Consideration to be paid and/or delivered, as the case may be.
(b) Any Notes delivered to the Designated Financial Institution(s) shall remain outstanding, subject to the applicable procedures of the Depositary. If the Designated Financial Institution(s) agree(s) to accept any Notes for exchange but does not timely pay and/or deliver, as the case may be, the related Conversion Consideration, or if such Designated Financial Institution(s) does not accept the Notes for exchange, the Company shall pay and/or deliver, as the case may be, the relevant Conversion Consideration, as, and at the time, required pursuant to this Indenture as if the Company had not made the Exchange Election.
(c) The Company’s designation of any Designated Financial Institution(s) to which the Notes may be submitted for exchange does not require such Designated Financial Institution(s) to accept any Notes.
Dilutive Effect The Company understands and acknowledges that the number of Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares will increase in certain circumstances. The Company further acknowledges that its obligation to issue the Conversion Shares pursuant to the terms of the Notes in accordance with this Agreement and the Notes and the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance with this Agreement, the Notes and the Warrants is, in each case, absolute and unconditional regardless of the dilutive effect that such issuance may have on the ownership interests of other stockholders of the Company.
Anti-Dilution Provisions The Exercise Price and the number and kind of securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as hereinafter provided:
(a) In case the Company shall issue shares of Common Stock as a dividend upon shares of Common Stock or in payment of a dividend thereon, or shall subdivide the number of outstanding shares of its Common Stock into a greater number of shares or shall contract the number of outstanding shares of its Common Stock into a lesser number of shares, the Exercise Price then in effect shall be adjusted, effective at the close of business on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive the same, to the price (computed to the nearest cent) determined by dividing (i) the product obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the close of business on such record date by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding prior to such dividend, subdivision or contraction, by (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend, subdivision, or contraction.
(b) If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, or consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation shall be effected, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in this Warrant and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of such Common Stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end that the provisions of this Warrant (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustment of the Exercise Price and of the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall thereafter be applicable as nearly as may be practicable in relation to any shares of stock, securities, or assets thereafter deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger or sale unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof, the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger or the corporation purchasing such assets shall assume, by written instrument, the obligation to deliver to the Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Holder may be entitled to purchase; and such successor corporation agrees to be bound by the provisions of Section 8 hereof with respect to any securities issued pursuant to such consolidation, merger or purchase of assets.
(c) Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant hereto, the number of shares of Common Stock specified in this Warrant shall thereupon evidence the right to purchase that number of shares of Common Stock (calculated to the nearest hundredth of a share of Common Stock) obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable immediately prior to such adjustment upon exercise of this Warrant and dividing the product so obtained by the Exercise Price in effect after such adjustment.
(d) Irrespective of any adjustments of the number or kind of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant or the Exercise Price, any warrants theretofore or thereafter issued may continue to express the same number of shares of Common Stock and Exercise Price as are stated in similar warrants previously issued.
(e) The Company may, at its sole option, retain the independent public accounting firm regularly retained by the Company, or another firm of independent public accountants of recognized standing selected by the Company's board of directors (the "Board of Directors"), to make any computation required under this section and a certificate signed by such firm shall be conclusive evidence of any computation made under this section.
(f) Whenever there is an adjustment in the Exercise Price and/or in the number or kind of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, as provided herein, the Company shall: (i) promptly file in the custody of its Secretary or Assistant Secretary a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors or the President of the Company and by the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer or the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company, showing in detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the number and kind of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant after such adjustment; and (ii) cause a notice to be sent to the Holder stating that such adjustment has been effected and stating the Exercise Price then in effect and the number and kind of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
(g) The Exercise Price and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall only be adjusted in the manner and upon the conditions heretofore specifically referred to in Subsections 7(a) through 7(f) above.
(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Section 7 from: (i) options and warrants, and Common Stock issued upon exercise of options and warrants, granted to employees, officers, directors, consultants and other services providers, or pursuant to the Company's stock incentive or stock option plans and employee benefit or compensation plans heretofore or hereafter adopted, (ii) the conversion of convertible securities or derivative securities outstanding on the Issue Date and approved by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, (iii) Common Stock, warrants and options granted to vendors, banks, lenders, and equipment lessors, and other third parties the primary purpose of which is other than capital raising, (iv) in an offering registered under the Securities Act, (v) upon conversion of any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, Series B Convertible Preferred Stock or Series C Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, (vi) acquisitions by the Company or its subsidiaries of assets or equity securities of third parties, or (vii) mergers, consolidations, joint ventures, or other business combinations by the Company or any subsidiary with a third party.
Cash in Lieu of Fractional Rights The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Rights or to distribute Right Certificates which evidence fractional Rights (except prior to the Distribution Date in accordance with Section 11.15). In lieu of such fractional Rights, there shall be paid to the registered holders of the Right Certificates with regard to which such fractional Rights would otherwise be issuable an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market value of a whole Right. For the purposes of this Section 14.1, the current market value of a whole Right shall be the closing price of the Rights for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date on which such fractional Rights would have been otherwise issuable. The closing price for any day shall be the last sale price, regular way, or, in case no such sale takes place on such day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, regular way, in either case as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange or, if the Rights are not listed or admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange, as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities listed on the principal national securities exchange on which the Rights are listed or admitted to trading or, if the Rights are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the last quoted price or, if not so quoted, the average of the high bid and low asked prices in the over-the-counter market, as reported by Nasdaq or such other system then in use or, if on any such date the Rights are not quoted by any such organization, the average of the closing bid and asked prices as furnished by a professional market maker making a market in the Rights selected by the Board of Directors of the Company. If on any such date no such market maker is making a market in the Rights, the current market value of the Rights on such date shall be the fair value of the Rights as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, or, if at the time of such determination there is an Acquiring Person, by a nationally recognized investment banking firm selected by the Board of Directors of the Company, which shall have the duty to make such determination in a reasonable and objective manner, which determination shall be described in a statement filed with the Rights Agent and shall be conclusive for all purposes.
Anti-Dilution Protection (a) In the event, prior to the payment of this Note, Aspen shall issue any of its shares of Aspen Common Stock as a stock dividend or shall subdivide the number of outstanding shares of Aspen Common Stock into a greater number of shares, then, in either of such events, the shares obtainable pursuant to conversion of this Note shall be increased proportionately; and, conversely, in the event that Aspen shall reduce the number of outstanding shares of Aspen Common Stock by combining such shares into a smaller number of shares, then, in such event, the number of shares of Aspen Common Stock obtainable pursuant to the conversion of this Note shall be decreased proportionately. Any dividend paid or distributed upon Aspen Common Stock in shares of any other class of capital stock of Aspen or securities convertible into shares of Aspen Common Stock shall be treated as a dividend paid in Aspen Common Stock to the extent that the shares of Aspen Common Stock are issuable upon the conversion of the Note. In the event that Aspen shall pay a dividend consisting of the securities of any other entity or in cash or other property, upon conversion of this Note, the Holder shall receive the securities, cash, or property which the Holder would have been entitled to if the Holder had converted this Note immediately prior to the record date of such dividend.
(b) In the event, prior to the payment of this Note, Aspen shall be recapitalized by reclassifying its outstanding Aspen Common Stock (other than into shares of common stock with a different par value, or by changing its outstanding shares of common stock to shares without par value), or in the event Aspen or a successor corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity (any of which is defined as a “Corporation”) shall consolidate or merge with or convey all or substantially all of its, or of any successor Corporation’s property and assets to any other Corporation or Corporations (any such other Corporation being included within the meaning of the term “successor Corporation” used in the context of any consolidation or merger of any other Corporation with, or the sale of all or substantially all of the property of any such other Corporation to, another Corporation or Corporations), or in the event of any other material change in the capital structure of Aspen or of any successor Corporation by reason of any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, merger, conveyance or otherwise, then, as a condition of any such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, merger or conveyance, a prompt, proportionate, equitable, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holder of this Note shall thereafter have the right to receive, upon the basis and the terms and conditions specified in this Note, in lieu of the securities of Aspen theretofore issuable upon the conversion of this Note, such shares, securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of securities of Aspen theretofore obtainable upon conversion of this Note as provided above had such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, merger or conveyance not taken place; and in any such event, the rights of the Holder of this Note to any adjustment in the number of shares of Aspen Common Stock obtainable upon conversion of this Note, as provided, shall continue and be preserved in respect of any shares, securities or assets which the Holder becomes entitled to obtain. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section 3(b) shall not apply to a merger with a subsidiary provided Aspen is the continuing Corporation and provided further such merger does not result in any reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of the securities issuable under this Note. The foregoing provisions of this Section 3(b) shall apply to successive reclassification, capital reorganizations and changes of securities and to successive consolidation, mergers, sales or conveyances.
(c) In the event Aspen, at any time while this Note shall remain outstanding, shall sell all or substantially all of its assets, or dissolve, liquidate, or wind up its affairs, prompt, proportionate, equitable, lawful and adequate provision shall be made as part of the terms of any such sale, dissolution, liquidation, or winding up such that the Holder of this Note may thereafter receive, upon exercise hereof, in lieu of the securities of Aspen which it would have been entitled to receive, the same kind and amount of any shares, securities or assets as may be issuable, distributable or payable upon any such sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up with respect to each share of Aspen Common Stock; provided, however, that in the event of any such sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, the right to convert this Note shall terminate on a date fixed by Aspen, such date so fixed to be not earlier than 6:00 p.m., New York time, on the 30th day after the date on which notice of such termination of the right to convert this Note has been given by mail to the Holder of this Note at such Holder’s address as it appears on the books of Aspen.
