Top-Up Option (a) Subject to Sections 1.04(b) and 1.04(c), the Company grants to Merger Subsidiary an option, for so long as this Agreement has not been terminated pursuant to the provisions hereof (the “Top-Up Option”), to purchase from the Company, up to the number of authorized and unissued Shares, the number of Shares that, when added to the number of Shares owned by Merger Subsidiary at the time of exercise of the Top-Up Option, constitutes one Share more than 90% of the Shares that would be outstanding immediately after the issuance of all Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Top-Up Option, calculated on a fully-diluted basis (the Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Top-Up Option, the “Top-Up Shares”).
(b) The Top-Up Option may be exercised by Merger Subsidiary in accordance with Section 1.04(c), in whole or in part, only once, at any time during the 10 Business Day period following the Acceptance Date, or if any Subsequent Offering Period is provided, during the 10 Business Day period following the expiration date of such Subsequent Offering Period, and only if Merger Subsidiary shall own as of such time less than 90% of the outstanding Shares; provided that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Top-Up Option shall not be exercisable (i) to the extent the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the Top-Up Option would exceed the number of authorized but unissued and unreserved Shares, (ii) unless immediately following the exercise of the Top-Up Option, the number of shares of the Company Common Stock owned in the aggregate by Parent and Merger Subsidiary constitutes at least one share more than 90% of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that would be outstanding immediately after the issuance of all shares of Company Common Stock subject to such exercise of the Top-Up Option, or (iii) unless the Minimum Condition shall have been satisfied. The aggregate purchase price payable for the Top-Up Shares being purchased by Merger Subsidiary pursuant to the Top-Up Option shall be determined by multiplying the number of such Shares by an amount equal to the price paid for each Share in the Offer, without interest. Such purchase price shall be payable by Merger Subsidiary (A) in cash, (B) by executing and delivering to the Company a promissory note having a principal amount equal to the purchase price, or (C) any combination of the foregoing. Any such promissory note shall bear interest at the rate of 6% per annum, shall mature on the first anniversary of the date of execution and delivery of such promissory note and may be prepaid without premium or penalty; provided, however, that upon any Event of Default, all principal and accrued interest thereunder shall immediately become due and payable.
(c) In the event Merger Subsidiary wishes to exercise the Top-Up Option, Merger Subsidiary shall deliver to the Company a notice (the “Top-Up Notice”) setting forth (i) the number of Top-Up Shares that Merger Subsidiary intends to purchase pursuant to the Top-Up Option and (ii) the place and time at which the closing of the purchase of such Top-Up Shares by Merger Subsidiary is to take place. The Top-Up Notice shall also include an undertaking signed by Parent and Merger Subsidiary that, as promptly as practicable following such exercise of the Top-Up Option, Merger Subsidiary intends to (and Merger Subsidiary shall, and Parent shall cause Merger Subsidiary to, as promptly as practicable after such exercise) consummate the Merger in accordance with Section 253 of Delaware Law as contemplated by Section 9.05. At the closing of the purchase of the Top-Up Shares, Parent and Merger Subsidiary shall cause to be delivered to the Company the consideration required to be delivered in exchange for the Top-Up Shares, and the Company shall cause to be issued to Merger Subsidiary a certificate representing the Top-Up Shares or, at Parent’s or Merger Subsidiary’s request or otherwise if the Company does not then have certificated shares of Company Common Stock, the applicable number of non-certificated shares of Company Common Stock represented by book-entry. The parties hereto agree to use their reasonable best efforts to cause the closing of the purchase of the Top-Up Shares to occur on the same day that the Top-Up Notice is deemed received by the Company pursuant to Section 12.01, and if not so consummated on such day, as promptly thereafter as possible. The parties further agree to use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Merger to be consummated in accordance with Section 253 of Delaware Law as contemplated by Section 9.05 as close in time as possible to (including, to the extent possible, on the same day as) the issuance of the Top-Up Shares.
(d) Parent and Merger Subsidiary understand that the Top-Up Shares will not be registered under the 1933 Act and will be issued in reliance upon an exemption thereunder for transactions not involving a public offering. Each of Parent and Merger Subsidiary represents, warrants and agrees that the Top-Up Option is being, and the Top-Up Shares will be, acquired by Merger Subsidiary for the purpose of investment and not with a view to or for resale in connection with any distribution thereof within the meaning of the 1933 Act. Any certificates evidencing Top-Up Shares may include any legends required by applicable securities laws.
Manner of Exercising Option (a) In order to exercise this option with respect to all or any part of the Option Shares for which this option is at the time exercisable, Optionee (or any other person or persons exercising the option) must take the following actions:
(i) To the extent the option is exercised for vested Option Shares, execute and deliver to the Corporation a Notice of Exercise for the Option Shares for which the option is exercised. To the extent this option is exercised for unvested Option Shares, execute and deliver to the Corporation a Purchase Agreement for those unvested Option Shares.
(ii) Pay the aggregate Exercise Price for the purchased shares in one or more of the following forms:
(A) cash or check made payable to the Corporation,
(B) shares of Common Stock held by Optionee (or any other person or persons exercising the option) for the requisite period necessary to avoid a charge to the Corporation's earnings for financial reporting purposes and valued at Fair Market Value on the Exercise Date, or
(C) to the extent the option is exercised for vested Option Shares, through a special sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which Optionee (or any other person or persons exercising the option) shall concurrently provide irrevocable instructions (I) to a Corporation-designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of the purchased shares and remit to the Corporation, out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the purchased shares plus all applicable Federal, state and local income and employment taxes required to be withheld by the Corporation by reason of such exercise and (II) to the Corporation to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale.
(iii) Furnish to the Corporation appropriate documentation that the person or persons exercising the option (if other than Optionee) have the right to exercise this option.
(b) Except to the extent the sale and remittance procedure is utilized in connection with the option exercise, payment of the Exercise Price must accompany the Notice of Exercise (or the Purchase Agreement) delivered to the Corporation in connection with the option exercise.
(c) As soon after the Exercise Date as practical, the Corporation shall issue to or on behalf of Optionee (or any other person or persons exercising this option) a certificate for the purchased Option Shares, with the appropriate legends affixed thereto. To the extent any such Option Shares are unvested, the certificates for those Option Shares shall be endorsed with an appropriate legend evidencing the Corporation's repurchase rights and may be held in escrow with the Corporation until such shares vest.
(d) In no event may this option be exercised for any fractional shares.
Optional Increase in Commitments (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.06(c)(ii), upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may increase the Commitments then in effect by increasing the Commitment of a Lender or by causing a Person approved as a Lender by the Administrative Agent to become a Lender (each an “Additional Lender”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.06(c) (such additional Commitments, the “Additional Commitments”).
(ii) If the Borrower elects to increase the total Commitments by increasing the Commitment of a Lender, the Borrower and such Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit H-1 (a “Commitment Increase Agreement”), and the Borrower shall deliver a new Note payable to such Lender in a principal amount equal to its Commitment after giving effect to such increase, and otherwise duly completed.
(iii) If the Borrower elects to increase the total Commitments by causing an Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement, the Borrower and such approved Additional Lender(s) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit H-2 (an “Additional Lender Agreement”), such Additional Lender(s) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire, and the Borrower shall, if requested by such Additional Lender, deliver a Note payable to such Additional Lender in a principal amount equal to its Commitment, and otherwise duly completed.
(iv) Any increase in the Commitments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:
(A) such increase shall not be less than $50,000,000 unless the Administrative Agent otherwise consents, and no such increase shall be permitted if after giving effect thereto the aggregate value of all increases to the Commitments during the Availability Period would exceed $200,000,000;
(B) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing immediately prior to the effective date of such increase or after giving effect to such increase;
(C) no Lender’s Commitment may be increased without the consent of such Lender;
(D) on the effective date of such increase, no Eurodollar Borrowings shall be outstanding or if any Eurodollar Borrowings are outstanding, then the effective date of such increase shall be the last day of the Interest Period in respect of such Eurodollar Borrowings unless the Borrower pays any compensation required by Section 5.02 (unless otherwise waived by all Lenders);
(E) the pro forma Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio as of the effective date of such increase (calculated in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) does not exceed the applicable maximum ratio for the last day of the fiscal quarter in which such increase occurs as set forth in Section 9.01(b) assuming that, for purposes of calculating the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio as of such date, the Lenders have made Loans to the Borrower in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of the aggregate Commitments (including the amount of the increase in the Commitments on such date); and
(F) any Additional Commitments shall be on terms and pursuant to the documentation applicable to the initial Commitments on the date hereof.
(v) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 2.06(c)(vi) from and after the effective date specified in the Commitment Increase Agreement or the Additional Lender Agreement (or if any Eurodollar Borrowings are outstanding, then the last day of the Interest Period in respect of such Eurodollar Borrowings, unless the Borrower has paid the compensation, if any, required by Section 5.02): (A) the amount of the Commitments shall be increased as set forth therein, and (B) in the case of an Additional Lender Agreement, any Additional Lender party thereto shall be a party to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In addition, (unless all Lenders have increased their respective Commitments proportionately and there is no Additional Lender) then Borrower shall borrow from each increasing Lender and Additional Lender and shall make prepayments to the other Lenders (all without restriction by any otherwise applicable restrictions on borrowing or prepaying hereunder), and each increasing Lender and/or the Additional Lender, as applicable, shall purchase (and the other Lenders shall sell) participation interests in Letters of Credit, such that each Lender (including any Additional Lender, if applicable) shall hold its Applicable Percentage of the outstanding Loans (and participation interests in Letters of Credit) after giving effect to the increase in the Commitments.
(vi) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Commitment Increase Agreement or an Additional Lender Agreement, executed by the Borrower and the Lender or the Borrower and the Additional Lender party thereto, as applicable, and the Administrative Questionnaire referred to in Section 2.06(c)(iii), if applicable, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Commitment Increase Agreement or Additional Lender Agreement and record the information contained therein in the Register required to be maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 12.04(c). No increase in the Commitments shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 2.06(c)(vi).
Certificate of Adjusted Exercise Price or Number of Shares Whenever an adjustment is made as provided in Sections 11 and 13 hereof, the Company shall promptly (a) prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment and a brief statement of the facts accounting for such adjustment, (b) file with the Rights Agent and with each transfer agent for the Preferred Shares a copy of such certificate and (c) mail a brief summary thereof to each holder of a Rights Certificate in accordance with Section 26 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the failure of the Company to make such certification or give such notice shall not affect the validity of such adjustment or the force or effect of the requirement for such adjustment. The Rights Agent shall be fully protected in relying on any such certificate and on any adjustment contained therein and shall not be deemed to have knowledge of such adjustment unless and until it shall have received such certificate.
Pre-Closing Option Provided that the Recipient satisfies the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Recipient may elect to have Funds delivered by the OPWC to the Title Agent prior to Closing, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. Recipient shall make such election, if at all, by delivering to the OPWC a Disbursement Request Form and Certification in the form of Appendix E to this Agreement (the "Disbursement Request"), which shall identify the Title Agent as payee and shall be delivered after the Recipient's receipt of a Notice to Proceed and not more than sixty (60) days prior to Closing. The OPWC shall then deliver to the Title Agent Funds to be disbursed under this Agreement for the land acquisition, which Funds may be held, together with the Matching Funds, in an account subject to the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement. Any interest that accrues thereon shall be used by the Recipient for settlement costs. If the interest paid on such escrow account exceeds the settlement costs to be paid by the Recipient, then such funds shall be applied to the Cost of Project. If all of the conditions to the release of Funds set forth in the Escrow Agreement have been satisfied, the Title Agent shall release the escrowed Funds at Closing and apply the same to the land acquisition costs in accordance herewith and the settlement statement executed and delivered at the Closing. After Closing, the Recipient may request additional disbursements of Funds available under this Agreement relating to the land acquisition, including costs incurred in connection with appraisal of the Land, closing costs, title search, environmental assessments and other eligible costs. Within sixty (60) days of Closing, the Recipient shall deliver to the OPWC, or shall cause the Title Agent to deliver to the OPWC, a copy of the recorded Deed Restrictions and deed, or other instrument appropriate for the interest in the Land, and the executed settlement statement. If the Recipient does not close within thirty (30) days of disbursement, the Recipient must contact the OPWC immediately.
Certification of Adjusted Exercise Price or Number of Shares of Common Stock Whenever the Exercise Price or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant is adjusted as provided in Section 11 or 13, the Company shall (a) promptly prepare a certificate setting forth the Exercise Price of each Warrant as so adjusted, and a brief statement of the facts accounting for such adjustment, (b) promptly file with the Warrant Agent and with each transfer agent for the Common Stock a copy of such certificate and (c) instruct the Warrant Agent to send a brief summary thereof to each Holder of a Warrant Certificate.
Change in Option Price or Conversion Rate If there is a change at any time in (i) the amount of additional consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise of any Options; (ii) the amount of additional consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion or exchange of any Convertible Securities; or (iii) the rate at which any Convertible Securities are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock (other than under or by reason of provisions designed to protect against dilution), the Exercise Price in effect at the time of such change will be readjusted to the Exercise Price which would have been in effect at such time had such Options or Convertible Securities still outstanding provided for such changed additional consideration or changed conversion rate, as the case may be, at the time initially granted, issued or sold.
Exercise Price Adjustment Whenever the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant is adjusted, as herein provided, the Exercise Price payable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying such Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, and of which the denominator shall be the number of Warrant Shares purchasable immediately thereafter.
Exercisability of Option Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Plan, this Option shall entitle the Participant to purchase, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, to the extent the Option is vested in accordance with the vesting schedule herein, the Shares subject to this Option, and each such right of purchase shall be cumulative and shall continue, unless sooner exercised or terminated as herein provided, during the remaining Option Period.
Exercise Price Adjusted As used in this Warrant, the term "Exercise Price" shall mean the purchase price per share specified in Section 3 of this Warrant, until the occurrence of an event stated in subsection (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 5, and thereafter shall mean said price as adjusted from time to time in accordance with the provisions of said subsection. No such adjustment under this Section 5 shall be made unless such adjustment would change the Exercise Price at the time by $.01 or more; provided, however, that all adjustments not so made shall be deferred and made when the aggregate thereof would change the Exercise Price at the time by $.01 or more. No adjustment made pursuant to any provision of this Section 5 shall have the net effect of increasing the Exercise Price in relation to the split adjusted and distribution adjusted price of the Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock subject hereto shall increase proportionately with each decrease in the Exercise Price.
