Notice of Registration Required The Engineer’s use of the Flying ‘T’ under this article shall be followed by the capital letter R enclosed within a circle (®) that gives notice that the Flying ‘T’ is registered in the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).
Limitations on Requested Registration The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any such registration pursuant to this Section 2.1:
(i) Prior to the earlier of (A) the four (4) year anniversary of the date of this Agreement or (B) six (6) months following the effective date of the Company’s Initial Public Offering;
(ii) In any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification, or compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act;
(iii) After the Company has initiated two (2) such registrations pursuant to this Section 2.1 (counting for these purposes only (1) registrations where at least 75% of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered are in fact registered and which have been declared or ordered effective and pursuant to which securities have been sold, and (2) registrations that closed, or were withdrawn at the request of the Holders (other than as a result of a material adverse change to the Company)); or
(iv) During the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on a date ninety (90) days (or in the case of the Company’s Initial Public Offering, one hundred eighty (180) days) after the effective date of, a Company-initiated registration (other than a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans); provided that (A) the Company is actively employing in good faith best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective and, (B) with respect to any request for registration pursuant to Section 2.1(a) received prior the date of filing of such Company-initiated registration, the Company shall have delivered written notice to the holders of Registrable Securities of its intent to file such registration within thirty (30) days after its receipt of such request.
Registration on Request (a) Except as provided in subsection (b) of this Section 2.1, upon the written request of Holders (which request must be initiated by either Stonegate Securities, Inc. or any of its directors or officers who are Holders) owning at least 60,000 Registrable Securities (as appropriately adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and the like) (which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities to be registered), the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible, notify all other Holders of such request (and allowing them to participate therein), and use its best efforts to effect the registration under tie Securities Act of the Registrable Securities of all Holders which the Company has been so requested to register.
(b) The Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any registration requested by the Holders pursuant to subsection (a) above (i) after two years from the date of this Warrant, or (ii) after the Company has effected one (1) registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 and such registration has been declared or ordered effective.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, a registration requested pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall not be deemed to have been effected (i) unless it has become effective and remains effective for at least 180 days; provided, however, that a registration which does not become effective after the Company has filed a registration statement with respect thereto solely by reason of the refusal by a requesting Holder, in its sole discretion, to proceed with such registration shall be deemed to have been effected by the Company at the request of the Holders unless the requesting Holder shall have elected to pay all Company Registration Expenses (as defined in Section 4 below) in connection with such registration, (ii) if after it has become effective such registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or other governmental agency or court for any reason other than a misrepresentation or an omission by any participating Holder, or (iii) if the conditions to closing specified in the purchase agreement or underwriting agreement entered into in connection with such registration are not satisfied other than by reason of some wrongful act or omission, or act or omission in bad faith, by any participating Holder.
(d) The Company shall not be obligated to effect any registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 within 90 days after the effective date of any underwritten public offering by the Company (which period may be extended up to an additional 90 days if, and only to the extent that, all directors, executive officers and other persons with registration rights with respect to securities of the Company are required to execute standard lockup agreements with the underwriters in such public offering) or of any previous registration withdrawn at the request of the requesting Holders. The Company may postpone for up to 90 days the filing or the effectiveness of a registration statement for a registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 if the financial advisor and/or underwriter to the Company certifies to the holders of the Registrable Securities that such registration would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company; provided, however, that in such event the Holders of Registrable Securities requesting such Registration shall be entitled to withdraw such request and, if such request is withdrawn, such Registration shall not count as the one permitted registration under this Section 2.1 and the Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with such postponed or withdrawn registration. Notwithstanding the above, the Company may delay a demand registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 only once in any twelve month period. In addition, upon written notice from the Company to Holder of the effectiveness of an underwritten public offering, Holder agrees not to sell any Registrable Securities under any registration statement effected under this Section 2.1 for a period of thirty (30) days following such effective date.
Indemnification by Holder of Registrable Securities Each holder of Registrable Securities severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, employees and agents and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each other holder of Registrable Securities that participates in such offering to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to such holder, but only with respect to information relating to such holder furnished in writing by such holder expressly for use in any Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus. In case any action or proceeding shall be brought against the Company or its directors or officers or any such controlling person, in respect of which indemnity may be sought against a holder of Registrable Securities, such holder shall have the rights and duties given the Company and the Company or its directors or officers or such controlling person shall have the rights and duties given to each holder by the preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company is an indemnified party, the Company shall designate the one counsel, and in all other circumstances, the one counsel shall be designated by a majority in interest based upon the Registrable Securities of the Indemnified parties. In no event shall the liability of any selling holder of Registrable Securities hereunder be greater in amount than the proceeds received by such holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. The Company and each other holder of Registrable Securities that participates in such offering shall be entitled to receive indemnities from underwriters, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution, to the same extent as provided above with respect to information so furnished in writing by such Persons specifically for inclusion in any Prospectus or Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any preliminary prospectus.
Registration of Registrable Securities The Company will file with the Commission, within 30 days following the date hereof, a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement") to register the resale of the Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants. The Company will use its best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective within (i) 90 days of the Date hereof, (ii) ten (10) days following the receipt of a "No Review" or similar letter from the Commission or (iii) the first day following the day the Commission determines the Registration Statement eligible to be declared effective (the "Required Effectiveness Date"). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit the number of Registrable Securities to be registered by the Company hereunder. As a result, should the Registration Statement not relate to the maximum number of Registrable Securities acquired by (or potentially acquirable by) the holders thereof upon conversion of the Preferred Stock, or exercise of the Common Stock Purchase Warrants described in Section 1 above, the Company shall be required to promptly file a separate registration statement (utilizing Rule 462 promulgated under the Exchange Act, where applicable) relating to such Registrable Securities which then remain unregistered. The provisions of this Agreement shall relate to any such separate registration statement as if it were an amendment to the Registration Statement.
Allocation of Registrable Securities The initial number of Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement and any increase in the number of Registrable Securities included therein shall be allocated pro rata among the Investors based on the number of Registrable Securities held by each Investor at the time such Registration Statement covering such initial number of Registrable Securities or increase thereof is declared effective by the SEC. In the event that an Investor sells or otherwise transfers any of such Investor’s Registrable Securities, each transferee or assignee (as the case may be) that becomes an Investor shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the then-remaining number of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement for such transferor or assignee (as the case may be). Any shares of Common Stock included in a Registration Statement and which remain allocated to any Person which ceases to hold any Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement shall be allocated to the remaining Investors, pro rata based on the number of Registrable Securities then held by such Investors which are covered by such Registration Statement.
Aggregation of Registrable Securities All Registrable Securities held or acquired by Persons who are Affiliates of one another shall be aggregated together for the purpose of determining the availability of any rights under this Agreement.
Registration Statement Covering Resale of Registrable Securities The Company shall prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed with the Commission, no later than sixty (60) days following the Effective Date (the “Filing Deadline”), a Registration Statement for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act or any successor thereto registering the resale from time to time by holders of all of the Registrable Securities held by the Holders (the “Resale Shelf Registration Statement”). The Resale Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 (or, if Form S-3 is not available to be used by the Company at such time, on Form S-1 or another appropriate form permitting Registration of such Registrable Securities for resale). If the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is initially filed on Form S-1 and thereafter the Company becomes eligible to use Form S-3 for secondary sales, the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, cause such Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be amended, or shall file a new replacement Resale Shelf Registration Statement, such that the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is on Form S-3. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as possible after filing, but in no event later than thirty (30) days following the Filing Deadline (the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, however, that the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to sixty (60) days after the Filing Deadline if the Registration Statement is reviewed by, and receives comments from, the Commission; provided, however, that the Company’s obligations to include the Registrable Securities held by a holder in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement are contingent upon such holder furnishing in writing to the Company such information regarding the holder, the securities of the Company held by the holder and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities as shall be reasonably requested by the Company to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities, and the holder shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations. Once effective, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus included therein continuously effective and to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available or, if not available, to ensure that another Registration Statement is available, under the Securities Act at all times until the earliest of (i) the date on which all Registrable Securities and other securities covered by such Registration Statement have been disposed of in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement and (ii) the date on which all Registrable Securities and other securities covered by such Registration Statement have ceased to be Registrable Securities. The Registration Statement filed with the Commission pursuant to this subsection 2.3.1 shall contain a Prospectus in such form as to permit any holder to sell such Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar provision adopted by the Commission then in effect) at any time beginning on the effective date for such Registration Statement (subject to lock-up restrictions under the Lock-up Agreement and the Release Date under the IPO Escrow Agreement), and shall provide that such Registrable Securities may be sold pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, holders of the Registrable Securities.
Registration Requirement Notwithstanding anything else in this Section 6, no Warrants (including any Private Warrants) may be exercised unless at the time of exercise (i) a registration statement covering the Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise (other than Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise of any Private Warrant) is effective under the Act and (ii) a prospectus thereunder relating to the Warrant Shares (other than Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise of any Private Warrant) is current. The Company shall use its best efforts to have a registration statement in effect covering Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (other than Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise of any Private Warrant) from the date the Warrants become exercisable and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those Warrant Shares until the Warrants expire or are redeemed. In the event that, at the end of the Warrant Exercise Period, a registration statement covering the Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise (other than Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise of any Private Warrant) is not effective under the Act, all the rights of holders hereunder shall terminate and all of the Warrants shall expire unexercised and worthless, and as a result purchasers of the Units will have paid the full Unit price solely for the share of Common Stock included in each Unit. In no event shall the Warrants be settled on a net cash basis nor shall the Company be required to issue unregistered shares upon the exercise of any Warrant that is not a Private Warrant.
Notice of Registration If at any time or from time to time the Company shall determine to register any of its securities, either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders, other than (i) a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, or (ii) a registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction, the Company will:
(i) promptly give to each Holder written notice thereof; and
(ii) include in such registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting involved therein, all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests, made within twenty (20) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company, by any Holder.
