Acquisition of Shares The Borrower will not acquire any equity, share capital, assets or obligations of any corporation or other entity or permit its Shares to be held by any party other than the Shareholder.
Treatment of Warrant Upon Acquisition of Company Upon the closing of any Acquisition, without limiting or prejudicing Holder’s right to convert this Warrant under Section 1.3 or exercise its “put” rights under Section 1.8 (in each case with respect to the Warrant Stock that may then be converted or put) the surviving entity shall, as a condition to the Acquisition, either (i) assume the obligations under this Warrant, then this Warrant shall be convertible into the same securities as would be payable for the shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon conversion of the unconverted portion of this Warrant as if such shares of Warrant Stock were outstanding on the record date for the Acquisition (and the Exchange Price and/or number of shares of Warrant Stock shall be adjusted accordingly); or (ii) the Company or other surviving entity in such Acquisition shall, upon initial closing of such Acquisition purchase this Warrant at its “Fair Value” (the “Purchase Price”). For purposes hereof, “Fair Value” means that value determined by the parties using a Black-Scholes Option-Pricing Model (the “Black-Scholes Calculation”) with the following assumptions: (A) a risk-free interest rate equal to the risk-free interest rate at the time of the closing of the Acquisition (or as close thereto as practicable), (B) a contractual life of the Warrant equal to the remaining term of this Warrant as of the date of the announcement of the Acquisition, (C) an annual dividend yield equal to dividends payable or declared on the underlying shares of Warrant Stock (including securities into which the shares of Warrant Stock may be convertible) during the term of this Warrant (calculated on an annual basis), and (D) a volatility factor of the expected market price of the Company’s Shares comprised of: (1) if the Company is publicly traded on a national securities exchange, its volatility over the one year period ending on the day prior to the announcement of the Acquisition, (2) if the Shares are traded over-the-counter, its volatility over the one year period ending on the day prior to the announcement of the Acquisition, or (3) if the Company is a non-public company, the volatility, over the one year period prior to the Acquisition, of an average of publicly-traded companies in the same or similar industry to the Company with such companies having similar revenues. The Purchase Price determined in accordance with the above shall be paid upon the initial closing of the Acquisition and shall not be subject to any post-Acquisition closing contingencies or adjustments; provided, however, the parties may take such post-Acquisition closing contingencies or adjustments into account in determining the Purchase Price, and if the parties take any post-Acquisition closing contingencies or adjustments into account, then upon the partial or complete removal of those post-Acquisition closing contingencies or adjustments, a new Black-Scholes Calculation would be made using all of the same inputs except for the value of the Company’s Shares (as determined under subclause (D)), and any increase in Fair Value (and, correspondingly, Purchase Price), including, without limitation, as a result of any earn-out or escrowed consideration, would be paid in full to Holder immediately after those post-Acquisition closing contingencies or adjustments can be determined or achieved.
Post-Closing Capitalization At, and immediately after, the Closing, the authorized capitalization, and the number of issued and outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Company and the Parent, on a fully-diluted basis, as indicated on a schedule to be delivered by the Parties at or prior to the Closing, shall be acceptable to the Parent in its sole and absolute discretion.
Pre-Closing Reorganization Buyer agrees that any or all of the Sellers may, at any time before Closing, implement a reorganization (“Pre-Closing Reorganization”) in the manner described at SCHEDULE T, provided that any new shareholders arising as a result of such reorganization will be bound by the terms of this Agreement, deemed to be “Sellers” for the purpose of this Agreement, obliged to sell their shares in the Relevant Holdco to the Buyer on the terms and conditions contained herein, and required to provide all of the representations, warranties and covenants that are provided by the Sellers herein, shall assume all liabilities and duties of any shareholder or Seller for whom such shareholder is the successor in interest, and provided further that the Pre-Closing Reorganization: (a) will not have the effect of imposing any incremental obligations for Taxes for the Buyer, the Holdcos, the Corporation or the Subsidiaries; and (b) will not have an adverse effect on Holdcos, the Corporation or the Subsidiaries or their respective businesses or Assets or impose any cost, liability or expense on any of them that is not reimbursed by Sellers. No Pre-Closing Reorganization will be considered in determining whether a representation, warranty or covenant of the Sellers hereunder has been breached, other than pursuant to the terms of this Section 5.9 but excluding the consideration of the Competition Act Approval. The Sellers will provide written notice to the Buyer upon completion of any Pre-Closing Reorganization together with an updated SCHEDULE A reflecting any changes to Sellers, Shares and Purchase Price allocation resulting from the Pre-Closing Reorganization (which updated SCHEDULE A will be deemed to be incorporated into and form part of this Agreement), and access to all relevant documentation relating to such Pre-Closing Reorganization.
Disposition of Shares In the case of an NSO, if Shares are held for at least one year, any gain realized on disposition of the Shares will be treated as long-term capital gain for federal income tax purposes. In the case of an ISO, if Shares transferred pursuant to the Option are held for at least one year after exercise and of at least two years after the Date of Grant, any gain realized on disposition of the Shares will also be treated as long-term capital gain for federal income tax purposes. If Shares purchased under an ISO are disposed of within one year after exercise or two years after the Date of Grant, any gain realized on such disposition will be treated as compensation income (taxable at ordinary income rates) to the extent of the difference between the Exercise Price and the lesser of (1) the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of exercise, or (2) the sale price of the Shares. Any additional gain will be taxed as capital gain, short-term or long-term depending on the period that the ISO Shares were held.
Equity Consideration (a) The Equity Consideration (collectively, the “Buyer Parent Securities”) are or shall be restricted securities and have not been registered for resale under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and may not be sold, transferred, hypothecated, or assigned by any of the Seller in the absence of a registration statement covering such Buyer Parent Securities that has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or the availability of an applicable exemption therefrom. For clarity, other than the Lock-up Agreement, there are no separate restrictions other than the stock having been issued in a private transaction, thereby making the shares restricted for Rule 144 purposes. If the Buyer Parent lists its shares on any public exchange, at Seller’s election, Buyer shall: (i) if registration occurs after the First Closing, ensure Seller’s Equity Consideration is registered, or (ii) if registration occurs before the First Closing, pay the Equity Consideration in registered shares.
(b) The Seller is a knowledgeable, sophisticated, and experienced investor and has sufficient knowledge and experience in evaluating and making, and is qualified to evaluate and make, decisions with respect to private investments in and dispositions of securities, including investments in and dispositions of securities issued by Buyer Parent and Persons engaged in similar activities, and is capable of evaluating the risks and merits associated with the Buyer Parent Securities.
(c) The Seller is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act.
(d) The Seller has had the opportunity to seek independent legal, investment, and tax advice in connection with such Seller’s decision to acquire its share of the Buyer Parent Securities.
(e) The Seller is acquiring the Buyer Parent Securities for investment purposes only and not with a view toward the immediate resale or distribution thereof. The Seller acknowledges that, as a result of the substantial restrictions on the transferability of its share of Buyer Parent Securities, such Seller will be required to bear the financial risks of an investment in such capital stock for an indefinite period of time.
(f) The Seller has reviewed the reports filed with the SEC by Bxxxx Xxxxxx and has received and reviewed a draft of Buyer Parent’s Form 1-K for fiscal year 2019, to be filed with the SEC pending completion of the Company’s audit procedures. The Seller understands the risks of its investment in Buyer Parent. The Seller acknowledges and agrees that it has had sufficient time and opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from Buyer Parent concerning the terms of the issuance of Buyer Parent Securities pursuant to this Agreement and to obtain any additional information required by or pursuant to the Securities Act.
Treatment of Warrant at Acquisition A) Upon the written request of the Company, Holder agrees that, in the event of an Acquisition in which the sole consideration is cash, either (a) Holder shall exercise its conversion or purchase right under this Warrant and such exercise will be deemed effective immediately prior to the consummation of such Acquisition or (b) if Holder elects not to exercise the Warrant, this Warrant will expire upon the consummation of such Acquisition. The Company shall provide the Holder with written notice of its request relating to the foregoing (together with such reasonable information as the Holder may request in connection with such contemplated Acquisition giving rise to such notice), which is to be delivered to Holder not less than ten (10) days prior to the closing of the proposed Acquisition.
B) Upon the written request of the Company, Holder agrees that, in the event of an Acquisition that is an “arms length” sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets (and only its assets) to a third party that is not an Affiliate (as defined below) of the Company (a “True Asset Sale”), either (a) Holder shall exercise its conversion or purchase right under this Warrant and such exercise will be deemed effective immediately prior to the consummation of such Acquisition or (b) if Holder elects not to exercise the Warrant, this Warrant will continue until the Expiration Date if the Company continues as a going concern following the closing of any such True Asset Sale. The Company shall provide the Holder with written notice of its request relating to the foregoing (together with such reasonable information as the Holder may request in connection with such contemplated Acquisition giving rise to such notice), which is to be delivered to Holder not less than ten (10) days prior to the closing of the proposed Acquisition.
C) Upon the closing of any Acquisition other than those particularly described in subsections (A) and (B) above, the successor entity shall assume the obligations of this Warrant, and this Warrant shall be exercisable for the same securities, cash, and property as would be payable for the Shares issuable upon exercise of the unexercised portion of this Warrant as if such Shares were outstanding on the record date for the Acquisition and subsequent closing. The Warrant Price and/or number of Shares shall be adjusted accordingly.
Pre-Closing Transactions Prior to the purchase of the Initial Securities on the Closing Date, the Pre-Closing Transactions shall have been duly consummated at the respective times and on the terms contemplated by this Agreement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and the Representatives shall have received such evidence that the Pre-Closing Transactions have been consummated as the Representatives may reasonably request.
Pre-Closing Restructuring (a) Subject to Section 2.05(b), prior to the consummation of the Closing Seller shall, and shall cause its applicable Subsidiaries to, engage in restructuring activities necessary to effect a reorganization of certain assets, liabilities and legal entities to separate the Business from Seller’s other businesses (collectively, the “Pre-Closing Restructuring”), which such Pre-Closing Restructuring shall be undertaken in a manner consistent with Section 6.14 of the Seller Disclosure Letter (as the same may be modified in accordance with this Section 6.14) and otherwise in a manner, and pursuant to documentation, reasonably acceptable to Purchaser (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and in accordance with applicable Law. Following the Pre-Closing Restructuring, at the Closing, Purchaser shall (directly or indirectly) own and assume all the assets, properties, claims, rights and Liabilities of Seller and its Subsidiaries constituting Transferred Assets or Assumed Liabilities and neither Purchaser nor any of its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Entities) shall (directly or indirectly) own any Excluded Assets or be liable for or have any responsibility with respect to any Retained Liabilities.
(b) Seller may propose changes to Section 6.14 of the Seller Disclosure Letter and Exhibit A (including in order to designate any additional Subsidiaries as a Transferred Entity (whether as an Auto Care Company or as an Auto Care Company Subsidiary) or to remove any Subsidiary from the universe of Auto Care Companies or Transferred Entities) at any time prior to the Closing and Purchaser shall consider any such proposal in good faith and shall not unreasonably object to, delay or condition its consent to such proposed changes. Any such agreed changes shall be incorporated into a revised, amended and restated Section 6.14 of the Seller Disclosure Letter or Exhibit A, as applicable.
(c) In connection with the Pre-Closing Restructuring, Seller shall, and shall cause its applicable Subsidiaries to (i) deliver all agreements, instruments, certificates and all other documents to effect the Pre-Closing Restructuring to Purchaser (with appropriate redaction for confidential information relating to Seller’s other businesses or third-parties) and (ii) keep Purchaser reasonably informed with respect to all material activity concerning the status of the Pre-Closing Restructuring and consult with Purchaser on a regular basis and cooperate in good faith in connection with all of Purchaser’s reasonable requests for information related to the Pre-Closing Restructuring. In the event that, at any time between the date of this Agreement and the Closing, Exhibit A is amended to designate any additional Subsidiaries as a Transferred Entity (whether as an Auto Care Company or as an Auto Care Company Subsidiary) or to remove any Subsidiary from the universe of Auto Care Companies or Transferred Entities, Seller shall be permitted to revise the Seller Disclosure Letter at such time to include any additional necessary disclosures related thereto.
(d) For the avoidance of doubt but subject to Section 2.05(a), the Pre-Closing Restructuring shall be completed by Seller or its applicable Subsidiaries prior to the Closing.
(e) At or prior to the Closing, Seller will deliver to Purchaser all agreements, instruments, certificates and other documents necessary to evidence the release or satisfaction of all Indebtedness of the Transferred Entities (other than Transferred Indebtedness) and the release of all Liens, guarantees or other encumbrances against the Transferred Entities and Transferred Assets, including without limitation, any guarantees of or Liens securing the (i) Credit Agreement, dated June 23, 2015, as amended, with Spectrum Brands Inc. as the Borrower and Royal Bank of Canada as administrative agent and collateral agent, (ii) Indenture dated December 4, 2014, as amended, with Spectrum Brands Inc. as the Issuer and US Bank National Association as Trustee, (iii) Indenture dated May 20, 2015, as amended, with Spectrum Brands Inc. as the Issuer and US Bank National Association as Trustee, and (iv) Indenture dated September 20, 2016, as amended, with Spectrum Brands Inc. as the Issuer and US Bank National Association as Trustee.
