Offer Preparation of this Lease by either Lessor or Lessee or Lessor's agent or Lessee's agent and submission of same to Lessee or Lessor shall not be deemed an offer to lease. This Lease is not intended to be binding until executed and delivered by all Parties hereto.
Offer Notice (i) The Company shall give written notice (the “Offering Notice”) to the Purchaser and the other Forward Contract Parties stating its bona fide intention to offer the New Equity Securities and specifying the number of New Equity Securities and the material terms and conditions, including the price, pursuant to which the Company proposes to offer the New Equity Securities and the applicable pro rata share of such New Equity Securities offered to the Purchaser pursuant to such Offering Notice.
Second Participation Notice; Oversubscription If any Participation Rights Holder fails or declines to fully exercise its Right of Participation in accordance with Section 3.02 above, the Company shall promptly (but no later than three (3) Business Days after the expiration of the First Participation Period) give notice (the “Second Participation Notice”) to other Participation Rights Holders who have fully exercised their Right of Participation (the “Fully Participating Investors”) in accordance with Section 3.02 above, which notice shall set forth the number of the New Securities not purchased by the other Participation Rights Holders pursuant to Section 3.02 above (such shares, the “Overallotment New Securities”). Each Fully Participating Investor shall have fifteen (15) days from the date of receipt of the Second Participation Notice (the “Second Participation Period”) to notify the Company of its desire to purchase more than its Pro Rata Share of the New Securities, stating the number of the additional New Securities it proposes to buy (the “Additional Number”). Such notice may be made by telephone if confirmed in writing within two (2) Business Days thereafter. If, as a result thereof, the total number of additional New Securities the Fully Participating Investors (the “Oversubscribing Fully Participating Investors”) propose to buy exceeds the total number of the Overallotment New Securities, the number each such Oversubscribing Fully Participating Investor is entitled to subscribe will equal to the lesser of (x) its Additional Number and (y) the product obtained by multiplying (i) the number of the Overallotment New Securities available for subscription by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of the Ordinary Shares into which the then outstanding Senior Preferred Shares held by such Oversubscribing Fully Participating Investor are convertible (calculated on an as-converted basis) and the denominator of which is the total number of the Ordinary Shares into which the then outstanding Senior Preferred Shares held by all the Oversubscribing Fully Participating Investors are convertible (calculated on an as-converted basis).
Offering Notice Except for (a) options to purchase Common Stock or restricted stock which may be issued pursuant to a Stock Option Plan, (b) a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares of Common Stock, (c) Equity Securities of the Company issued upon exercise, conversion or exchange of any Common Stock Equivalent either (x) previously issued or (y) issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (d) Equity Securities of the Company issued in consideration of an acquisition (whether pursuant to a stock purchase, asset purchase, merger or otherwise), approved by the Board of Directors in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, by the Company of another Person, (e) issuances to commercial banks, lessors and licensors in non-equity financing transactions (provided that the foregoing will not include any issuances to private equity or venture capital firms or any private equity division of any investment bank or commercial bank) not exceeding more than five percent (5%) in the aggregate of the outstanding Shares on a fully diluted basis in transactions approved by the Board of Directors, (f) issuances to the public pursuant to an effective Registration Statement and (g) issuances in connection with any dividend or distribution on shares of preferred stock of the Company, if any ((a)-(g) being referred to collectively as “Exempt Issuances”), if, following compliance with Section 6.9 (if applicable), the Company wishes to issue any Equity Securities or Debt Securities of the Company (collectively, “New Securities”) to any Person (the “Subject Purchaser”), then the Company shall offer such New Securities to each of the Initial Stockholders holding greater than one percent (1%) of the then-issued and outstanding Shares (each, a “Preemptive Rightholder”, and collectively, the “Preemptive Rightholders”) by sending written notice (the “New Issuance Notice”) to the Preemptive Rightholders, which New Issuance Notice shall state (x) the number of New Securities proposed to be issued and (y) the proposed purchase price per security of the New Securities (the “Proposed Price”). Upon delivery of the New Issuance Notice, such offer shall be irrevocable unless and until the rights provided for in Section 4.2 shall have been waived or shall have expired.
Participation of Broker-Dealers in Exchange Offer (a) The Staff has taken the position that any broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account in the Exchange Offer in exchange for Securities that were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making or other trading activities (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”) may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and must deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. The Company and the Guarantors understand that it is the Staff’s position that if the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement includes a plan of distribution containing a statement to the above effect and the means by which Participating Broker-Dealers may resell the Exchange Securities, without naming the Participating Broker-Dealers or specifying the amount of Exchange Securities owned by them, such Prospectus may be delivered by Participating Broker-Dealers (or, to the extent permitted by law, made available to purchasers) to satisfy their prospectus delivery obligation under the Securities Act in connection with resales of Exchange Securities for their own accounts, so long as the Prospectus otherwise meets the requirements of the Securities Act.
Acquisition for Own Account Purchaser is acquiring the Shares and the Conversion Shares for Purchaser's own account for investment only, and not with a view towards their distribution.
First Participation Notice In the event that the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New Securities (in a single transaction or a series of related transactions), it shall give to each Participation Rights Holder written notice of its intention to issue New Securities (the “First Participation Notice”), describing the amount and type of New Securities, the price and the general terms upon which the Company proposes to issue such New Securities. Each Participation Rights Holder shall have fifteen (15) days from the date of receipt of any such First Participation Notice to agree in writing to purchase such Participation Rights Holder’s Pro Rata Share of such New Securities for the price and upon the terms and conditions specified in the First Participation Notice by giving written notice to the Company and stating therein the quantity of New Securities to be purchased (not to exceed such Participation Rights Holder’s Pro Rata Share). If any Participation Rights Holder fails to so agree in writing within such fifteen (15) day period to purchase such Participation Rights Holder’s full Pro Rata Share of an offering of New Securities, then such Participation Rights Holder shall forfeit the right hereunder to purchase that part of its Pro Rata Share of such New Securities that it did not agree to purchase.
