Issuance, Sale and Delivery of the Shares The Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued, delivered and paid for in the manner set forth in this Agreement, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and will conform in all material respects to the description thereof set forth in the Private Placement Memorandum. No preemptive rights or other rights to subscribe for or purchase exist with respect to the issuance and sale of the Shares by the Company pursuant to this Agreement. No stockholder of the Company has any right (which has not been waived or has not expired by reason of lapse of time following notification of the Company's intent to file the Registration Statement) to require the Company to register the sale of any shares owned by such stockholder under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), in the Registration Statement. No further approval or authority of the stockholders or the Board of Directors of the Company will be required for the issuance and sale of the Shares to be sold by the Company as contemplated herein.
Sale and Delivery of Shares (a) Subject to the terms and conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Company agrees to issue and sell Shares from time to time through the Agent, acting as sales agent, and the Agent agrees to use its reasonable efforts to sell, as sales agent for the Company, the Shares on the following terms.
i. The Shares are to be sold on a daily basis or otherwise as shall be agreed to by the Company and the Agent on any day that (A) is a trading day for the NYSE (other than a day on which the NYSE is scheduled to close prior to its regular weekday closing time), (B) the Company has instructed the Agent by telephone (confirmed promptly by electronic mail) to make such sales and (C) the Company has satisfied its obligations under Section 6 of this Agreement. The Company will designate the maximum amount of the Shares to be sold by the Agent daily as previously agreed to in writing or electronic transmission by the Agent (in any event not in excess of (i) the amount available for issuance under the Prospectus and the currently effective Registration Statement less (ii) any amounts already issued and sold pursuant to this Agreement and the Alternative Equity Distribution Agreements) and the minimum price per Share at which such Shares may be sold. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Agent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell on a particular day, consistent with its normal trading practices, all of the Shares designated for the sale by the Company on such day. The gross sales price of the Shares sold under this Section 3(a) shall be the market price for shares of the Company’s Common Stock sold by the Agent under this Section 3(a) at the time of sale of such Shares (but in no event shall such gross sales price be less than the minimum price per Share designated by the Company at which such Shares may be sold).
ii. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (A) there can be no assurance that the Agent will be successful in selling the Shares, (B) the Agent will incur no liability or obligation to the Company or any other person or entity if it does not sell Shares for any reason other than a failure by the Agent to use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices and applicable law and regulations to sell such Shares as required under this Agreement, and (C) the Agent shall be under no obligation to purchase Shares on a principal basis pursuant to this Agreement, except as otherwise specifically agreed by the Agent and the Company.
iii. The Company shall not authorize the issuance and sale of, and the Agent shall not be obligated to use its reasonable efforts to sell, any Share at a price lower than the minimum price therefor designated from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), or a duly authorized committee thereof, and notified to the Agent in writing. The Company or the Agent may, upon notice to the other party hereto by telephone (confirmed promptly by electronic mail), suspend the offering of the Shares for any reason and at any time; provided, however, that such suspension or termination shall not affect or impair the parties’ respective obligations with respect to the Shares sold hereunder prior to the giving of such notice.
iv. The Agent hereby covenants and agrees not to make any sales of the Shares on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Section 3(a), other than (A) (1) by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions between members of the NYSE that qualify for delivery of a Prospectus in accordance with Rule 153 under the Act (such transactions are hereinafter referred to as “Continuous Offerings”), (2) to or through a market maker, or (3) directly on or through any other national securities exchange or facility thereof, a trading facility of a national securities association, an alternative trading system, an electronic communication network or any similar market venue and (B) such other sales of the Shares on behalf of the Company in its capacity as agent of the Company as shall be agreed by the Company and the Agent pursuant to a Terms Agreement.
v. The compensation to the Agent for sales of the Shares with respect to which the Agent acts as sales agent under this Agreement shall be at a mutually agreed rate, not to exceed 2.0% of the gross sales price of the Shares sold pursuant to this Section 3(a) and payable as described in the succeeding subsection (vi) below. The foregoing rate of compensation shall not apply when the Agent acts as principal, in which case the Company may sell Shares to the Agent as principal at a price agreed upon at the relevant Applicable Time pursuant to a Terms Agreement. The remaining proceeds, after further deduction for any transaction fees imposed on the Agent by any governmental or self-regulatory organization in respect of such sales, shall constitute the net proceeds to the Company for such Shares (the “Net Proceeds”).
vi. The Agent shall provide written confirmation (which may be by facsimile or electronic mail) to the Company promptly following the close of trading on the NYSE each day in which the Shares are sold under this Section 3(a) setting forth the number of the Shares sold on such day, the aggregate gross sales proceeds and the Net Proceeds to the Company, and the compensation payable by the Company to the Agent with respect to such sales. Such compensation shall be set forth and invoiced in periodic statements from the Agent to the Company, with payment to be made by the Company promptly after its receipt thereof.
vii. Settlement for sales of the Shares pursuant to this Section 3(a) will occur on the third Business Day following the date on which such sales are made (each such day, a “Settlement Date”). On each Settlement Date, the Shares sold through the Agent for settlement on such date shall be issued and delivered by the Company to the Agent against payment of the Net Proceeds for the sale of such Shares. Settlement for all such Shares shall be effected by free delivery of the Shares to the Agent’s account at The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) in return for payments in same day funds delivered to the account designated by the Company. If the Company or its transfer agent (if applicable) shall default on its obligation to deliver the Shares on any Settlement Date, the Company shall (A) indemnify and hold the Agent harmless against any loss, claim or damage arising from or as a result of such default by the Company and (B) pay the Agent any commission to which it would otherwise be entitled absent such default. If the Agent breaches this Agreement by failing to deliver the Net Proceeds to the Company on any Settlement Date for the Shares delivered by the Company, the Agent will pay the Company interest based on the effective overnight federal funds rate on such unpaid amount less any compensation due to the Agent.
viii. At each Applicable Time, Settlement Date, Representation Date (as defined in Section 4(k)) and Filing Date (as defined in Section 4(a)), the Company shall be deemed to have affirmed each representation and warranty contained in this Agreement as if such representation and warranty were made as of such date, modified as necessary to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended as of such date. Any obligation of the Agent to use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell the Shares on behalf of the Company shall be subject to the continuing accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company herein, to the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder and to the continuing satisfaction of the additional conditions specified in Section 6 of this Agreement.
(b) If the Company wishes to issue and sell the Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the Alternative Equity Distribution Agreements but other than as set forth in Section 3(a) of this Agreement (each, a “Placement”), it will notify the Agent of the proposed terms of such Placement. If the Agent, acting as principal, wishes to accept such proposed terms (which it may decline to do for any reason in its sole discretion) or, following discussions with the Company wishes to accept amended terms, the Agent and the Company will enter into a Terms Agreement, in substantially the form of Annex I hereto, setting forth the terms of such Placement. The terms set forth in a Terms Agreement will not be binding on the Company or the Agent unless and until the Company and the Agent have each executed such Terms Agreement accepting all of the terms of such Terms Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of a Terms Agreement, the terms of such Terms Agreement will control.
(c) Each sale of the Shares to the Agent shall be made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and, if applicable, a Terms Agreement, which will provide for the sale of such Shares to, and the purchase thereof by, the Agent. A Terms Agreement may also specify certain provisions relating to the reoffering of such Shares by the Agent. The commitment of the Agent to purchase the Shares pursuant to any Terms Agreement shall be deemed to have been made on the basis of the representations and warranties of the Company herein contained and shall be subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth. Each Terms Agreement shall specify the number of the Shares to be purchased by the Agent pursuant thereto, the price to be paid to the Company for such Shares, any provisions relating to rights of, and default by, underwriters acting together with the Agent in the reoffering of the Shares, and the time and date (each such time and date being referred to herein as a “Time of Delivery”) and place of delivery of and payment for such Shares. Such Terms Agreement shall also specify any requirements for opinions of counsel, accountants’ letters and officers’ certificates pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement and any other information or documents required by the Agent.
(d) Under no circumstances shall the aggregate value of the Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement, the Alternative Equity Distribution Agreements and any Terms Agreement exceed (i) the Maximum Amount, (ii) the number of shares of the Common Stock available for issuance under the currently effective Registration Statement or (iii) the number and aggregate amount of the Shares authorized from time to time to be issued and sold under this Agreement by the Board, or a duly authorized committee thereof, and notified to the Agent in writing.
(e) Except pursuant to a reoffer of Shares as described in Section 3(c) hereof, the Company agrees that any offer to sell Shares, any solicitation of an offer to buy Shares, or any sales of Shares shall only be effected by or through only one of the Agent or an Alternative Agent on any single given day, but in no event by more than one, and the Company shall in no event request that the Agent and any of the Alternative Agents sell Shares on the same day; provided, however, that (a) the foregoing limitation shall not apply to (i) the exercise of any option, warrant, right or any conversion privilege set forth in the instrument governing such security or (ii) sales solely to employees or security holders of the Company or its subsidiaries, or to a trustee or other person acquiring such securities for the accounts of such persons, and (b) such limitation shall not apply on any day during which no sales are made pursuant to this Agreement or an Alternative Equity Distribution Agreement.
(f) If either the Company or the Agent has reason to believe that the exemptive provisions set forth in Rule 101(c)(1) of Regulation M under the Exchange Act are not satisfied with respect to the Shares, it shall promptly notify the other party and sales of the Shares under this Agreement and any Terms Agreement shall be suspended until that or other exemptive provisions have been satisfied in the judgment of each party.
(g) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not offer, sell or deliver, or request the offer or sale of, any Shares and, by notice to the Agent given by telephone (confirmed promptly by telecopy or email), shall cancel any instructions for the offer or sale of any Shares, and the Agent shall not be obligated to offer or sell any Shares, (i) during any period in which the Company is, or could be deemed to be, in possession of material non-public information, or (ii) except as provided in Section 3(h) below, at any time during the period commencing on the seventh Business Day prior to the date (each, an “Announcement Date”) on which the Company shall issue a press release containing, or shall otherwise publicly announce, its earnings, revenues or other results of operations (each, an “Earnings Announcement”) through and including the time that is 24 hours after the time that the Company files (a “Filing Time”) a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or an Annual Report on Form 10-K that includes consolidated financial statements as of and for the same period or periods, as the case may be, covered by such Earnings Announcement.
(h) If the Company wishes to offer, sell or deliver Shares at any time during the period from and including an Announcement Date through and including the time that is 24 hours after the corresponding Filing Time, the Company shall (i) prepare and deliver to the Agent (with a copy to counsel to the Agent) a Current Report on Form 8-K which shall include substantially the same financial and related information as was set forth in the relevant Earnings Announcement (other than any earnings projections, similar forward-looking data and officers’ quotations) (each, an “Earnings 8-K”), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, and obtain the consent of the Agent to the filing thereof (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), (ii) provide the Agent with the officers’ certificate, accountants’ letter and opinions and letters of counsel called for by Sections 4(k), (l), (m) and (n) hereof; respectively, (iii) afford the Agent the opportunity to conduct a due diligence review in accordance with Section 4(o) hereof and (iv) file such Earnings 8-K with the Commission, then the provisions of clause (iii) of Section 3(g) shall not be applicable for the period from and after the time at which the foregoing conditions shall have been satisfied (or, if later, the time that is 24 hours after the time that the relevant Earnings Announcement was first publicly released) through and including the time that is 24 hours after the Filing Time of the relevant Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or Annual Report on Form 10-K, as the case may be. For purposes of clarity, the parties hereto agree that (A) the delivery of any officers’ certificate, accountants’ letter and opinions and letters of counsel pursuant to this Section 3(h) shall not relieve the Company from any of its obligations under this Agreement with respect to any Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or Annual Report on Form 10-K, as the case may be, including, without limitation, the obligation to deliver officers’ certificates, accountants’ letters and legal opinions and letters as provided in Section 4 hereof and (B) this Section 3(h) shall in no way affect or limit the operation of the provisions of clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 3(g), which shall have independent application.
Orders and Delivery 4.1 The Purchaser may from time to time place Purchase Orders on the Supplier for the Goods and/or Services. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Purchaser from purchasing the same or similar goods and services from a third party.
4.2 The Purchaser may at any time terminate a PO, or where applicable this Agreement, for convenience if the relevant contract in terms whereof Goods and/or Services are on-sold by the Purchaser to a Customer is terminated, by giving the Supplier 30 (thirty) days’ written notice to such effect, in which event the Purchaser shall be liable to pay only for Goods ordered under Purchase Orders placed prior to the delivery of such notice of termination.
4.3 The Goods to be supplied pursuant to this Agreement shall be delivered by the Supplier DDP Delivered Duty Paid (at the Purchaser’s or the Customer’s premises, Gauteng) on or before the delivery date/s stated in the relevant PO or delivery schedule. Time is of the essence in the performance of the Supplier’s obligations.
4.4 Subject to the Supplier’s strict compliance with this clause 4, the Purchaser shall grant to the Supplier an extension of time if and to the extent that delivery is or will be delayed by the following causes:
4.4.1 Additional Goods and/or Services are ordered under clause 5, or
4.4.2 Any delay, impediment or prevention caused by either force majeure or the Purchaser occurs.
4.5 If the Supplier considers itself entitled to an extension of time, the Supplier shall give notice to the Purchaser describing the event or circumstance giving rise to the requested extension of time (in this clause referred to as the “claim”). The notice shall be given as soon as practicable, and in any event not later than 2 (two) days after the Supplier became aware, or should have become aware, of the event or circumstance.
4.6 Within 7 (seven) days after the Supplier sent the notice referred to in clause 4.5 or within such other period as may be proposed by the Supplier and approved by the Purchaser, the Supplier shall send to the Purchaser a fully detailed claim and revised draft delivery schedule which includes full supporting particulars of the basis and duration of the claim. If the event or circumstance giving rise to the claim has a continuing effect:
4.6.1 this fully detailed claim shall be considered as interim;
4.6.2 the Supplier shall send further interim claims at weekly intervals, giving the accumulated delay, and such further particulars as the Purchaser may reasonably require; and
4.6.3 the Supplier shall send a final claim within 7 (seven) days after the end of the effects resulting from the event or circumstance, or within such other period as may be proposed by the Supplier and approved by the Purchaser.
4.7 Within 7 (seven) days after receiving a claim or any further particulars supporting a previous claim, or within such other period as may be proposed by the Purchaser and approved by the Supplier, the Purchaser shall respond with approval, or with disapproval and detailed comments. It may also request further clarification or additional particulars. Should the Purchaser fail to respond within the stated time, it shall be deemed to have rejected the claim.
4.8 A revised delivery schedule shall only become valid and binding once approved by the Purchaser, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
Guaranteed Delivery Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a shareholder desires to tender Shares pursuant to the Offer and the certificates for the Shares to be tendered are not immediately available, or time will not permit the Letter of Transmittal and all documents required by the Letter of Transmittal to reach the Depositary prior to 5:00 P.M. Eastern Time on the Expiration Date, or a shareholder cannot complete the procedures for delivery by book-entry transfer on a timely basis, then such shareholder's Shares may nevertheless be tendered, provided that all of the following conditions are satisfied:
(i) the tender is made by or through an Eligible Institution; and
(ii) a properly completed and duly executed Notice of Guaranteed Delivery in the form provided by the Fund is received by the Depositary prior to 5:00 P.M. Eastern Time on the Expiration Date; and
(iii) the certificates for all such tendered Shares, in proper form for transfer, or a Book-Entry Confirmation with respect to such Shares, as the case may be, together with a Letter of Transmittal properly completed and bearing original signature(s) and the original of any required signature guarantee(s) (or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent's Message) and any documents required by the Letter of Transmittal, are received by the Depositary prior to 5:00 P.M. Eastern Time on the third NYSE trading day after the date of execution of the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery. The Notice of Guaranteed Delivery may be delivered by hand or transmitted by facsimile transmission or mail to the Depositary and must include a guarantee by an Eligible Institution and a representation that the shareholder owns the Shares tendered within the meaning of, and that the tender of the Shares effected thereby complies with, Rule 14e-4 under the Exchange Act, each in the form set forth in the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery. THE METHOD OF DELIVERY OF ANY DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING SHARE CERTIFICATES, THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND ANY OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS, IS AT THE OPTION AND SOLE RISK OF THE TENDERING SHAREHOLDER. IF DOCUMENTS ARE SENT BY MAIL, REGISTERED MAIL WITH RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, PROPERLY INSURED, IS RECOMMENDED. Shareholders have the responsibility to cause their Shares tendered (in proper certificated or uncertificated form), the Letter of Transmittal properly completed and bearing original signature(s) and the original of any required signature guarantee(s) and any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal, to be timely delivered. Timely delivery is a condition precedent to acceptance of Shares for purchase pursuant to the Offer and to payment of the purchase amount. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, payment for Shares accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer will in all cases be made only after timely receipt by the Depositary of Share certificates evidencing such Shares or a Book-Entry Confirmation of the delivery of such Shares (if available), a Letter of Transmittal properly completed and bearing original signature(s) and the original of any required signature guarantee(s) or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent's Message and any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal.
Shipment and Delivery Seller grants the Company the right at any time to specify the carrier and/or method of transportation to be employed in conveying any part or all of the Goods covered herein. In the event that Seller uses an unauthorized carrier and/or method of transportation, then all shipping expenses shall be assumed by Seller. Unless otherwise stated in the Order, all Goods will be shipped FCA shipment point. FCA shall be interpreted in accordance with the version of Incoterms valid at the time of the Seller’s acceptance of the Order. The Seller shall be responsible for preparing and filing all export documentation for all shipments. The Company shall not be obligated to accept early deliveries, partial deliveries or excess deliveries. If Goods are incorrectly delivered, the Seller shall be responsible for any additional expense incurred in delivering the Goods to the correct destination. The delivery date set forth on the Order is of the essence of the Contract. If the Seller anticipates that it will not be able to deliver the Goods upon the agreed delivery date, then the Seller shall immediately notify the Company thereof in writing; provided, however, that such notice shall not relieve the Seller of its responsibilities and liabilities with respect to on-time delivery hereunder. In such event, the Company may request that the Seller expedite delivery to the maximum extent possible at the Seller’s sole expense. If the Seller does not deliver the Goods by the agreed delivery date, then the Company shall be entitled to liquidated damages as agreed between the parties, up to and including the total Order value. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company reserves the right to claim repayment for any and all costs, losses, expenses and damages incurred by the Company that are attributable to the Seller’s delay in delivery. Such liquidated damages shall be paid at the Company’s written demand. Partial deliveries shall not relieve the Seller from liability for any late delivery hereunder. If the Seller discovers that it has shipped any non-conforming Goods to the Company, it shall immediately (and not more than 24 hours after such discovery) notify the Company thereof in writing; provided, however, that such notice shall not relieve the Seller of its responsibilities and liabilities with respect to defective goods hereunder.
