Right to Sell Assignor may not Transfer any interest in the Xxxxx, the Subject Interests or any part thereof or any undivided interest therein in violation of Section 11.03. Subject to Section 11.02 and 11.03, Assignor may from time to time Transfer, mortgage or pledge its interest in the Xxxxx, the Subject Interests, or any part thereof or undivided interest therein, if and only if (i) such Transfer, mortgage or pledge is made expressly subject to and burdened with the Royalty Interest and this Conveyance; (ii) solely in connection with a Transfer other than a Transfer pursuant to a foreclosure on any mortgage or security interest, Assignor has caused the assignee, purchaser, transferee or grantee of any such transaction to (A) acknowledge that the affected Subject Interests are taken subject to and burdened with the Royalty Interest and this Conveyance, and (B) assume and agree to discharge Assignor’s obligations under this Conveyance with respect to such Subject Interests from and after the actual date of any such Transfer; and (iii) in connection with any Transfer pursuant to a foreclosure on any mortgage or security interest, Assignor has used commercially reasonable efforts to cause the assignee, purchaser, transferee or grantee of any such transaction to (A) acknowledge that the affected Subject Interests are taken subject to and burdened with the Royalty Interest and this Conveyance, and (B) assume and agree to discharge Assignor’s obligations under this Conveyance with respect to such Subject Interests from and after the actual date of any such Transfer. Any assumption and agreement to discharge shall be by appropriate written instrument for the express benefit of and enforceable by Assignee. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 11.01(a) is intended to permit any assignee, purchaser, transferee or grantee to acquire any interest in the Xxxxx, the Subject Interests or any part thereof or undivided interest therein without being subject to and burdened with the Royalty Interest and this Conveyance. Assignee shall not be required to recognize any purported Transfer, mortgage or pledge not made in conformance with this Section 11.01(a) and, notwithstanding any such purported Transfer, mortgage or pledge, Assignor shall remain obligated under this Conveyance just as if such Transfer, mortgage or pledge attempt had not been made and Assignee shall continue to deal with Assignor to the exclusion of the purported transferee. Further, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, any purported Transfer not made in conformance with this Section 11.01(a) shall be void and of no effect.
Right to Convert Warrant Into Stock Net Issuance (i) In addition to and without limiting the rights of the holder under the terms of this Warrant, the holder may elect to convert this Warrant or any portion thereof (the "Conversion Right") into shares of Common Stock, the aggregate value of which shares shall be equal to the value of this Warrant or the portion thereof being converted. The Conversion Right may be exercised by the holder by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with notice of the holder's intention to exercise the Conversion Right, in which event the Company shall issue to the holder a number of shares of the Company's Common Stock computed using the following formula: X= Y(A-B) ------ A Where: X The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the holder. Y The number of shares of Common Stock representing the portion of this Warrant that is being converted. A The fair market value of one share of the Company's Common Stock. B The Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculations).
(ii) For purposes of this Section 2(b), the "fair market value" per share of the Company's Common Stock shall mean, the average daily Market Price (as defined below) during the period of the most recent 20 days, ending on the last business day before the effective date of exercise of the Conversion Right, on which the national securities exchanges were open for trading, except that if no class of the Common Stock is then listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or quoted in the over-counter market, the fair market value shall be the Market Price on the last business day before the effective date of exercise of the Conversion Right. If the Common Stock is traded on a national securities exchange or admitted to unlisted trading privileges on such an exchange, or is listed on the National Market System (the "National Market System") of the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations System (the "NASDAQ"), the Market Price as of a specified day shall be the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on such exchange or on the National Market System on such date or if no such sale is made on such day, the mean of the closing bid and asked prices for such day on such exchange or on the National Market System. If the Common Stock is not so listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges, the Market Price as of a specified day shall be the mean of the last bid and asked prices reported on such date (x) by the NASDAQ or (y) if reports are unavailable under clause (x) above by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated. If the Common Stock is not so listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges and bid and ask prices are not reported, the Market Price as of a specified day shall be determined in good faith by written resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company.
Initial Exercise Price; Exercise of Rights; Detachment of Rights (a) Subject to adjustment as herein set forth, each Right will entitle the holder thereof, from and after the Separation Time and prior to the Expiration Time, to purchase one Common Share for the Exercise Price (and the Exercise Price and number of Common Shares are subject to adjustment as set forth below). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any Rights held by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries shall be void.
(b) Until the Separation Time,
(i) the Rights shall not be exercisable and no Right may be exercised; and
(ii) each Right will be evidenced by the certificate for the associated Common Share of the Corporation registered in the name of the holder thereof (which certificate shall also be deemed to represent a Rights Certificate) or by Book Entry Form registration for the associated Common Share and will be transferable only together with, and will be transferred by a transfer of, such associated Common Share of the Corporation.
(c) From and after the Separation Time and prior to the Expiration Time:
(i) the Rights shall be exercisable; and
(ii) the registration and transfer of Rights shall be separate from and independent of Common Shares of the Corporation. Promptly following the Separation Time, the Corporation will determine whether it wishes to issue Rights Certificates or whether it will maintain the Rights in Book Entry Form. In the event that the Corporation determines to maintain Rights in Book Entry Form, it will put in place such alternative procedures (as are determined necessary in consultation with the Rights Agent) for the Rights to be maintained in Book Entry Form (the “Book Entry Rights Exercise Procedures”), it being hereby acknowledged that such procedures shall, to the greatest extent possible, replicate in all substantive respects the procedures set out in this Agreement with respect to the exercise of the Rights Certificates and that the procedures set out in this Agreement shall be modified only to the extent necessary, as reasonably determined by the Rights Agent, to permit the Corporation to maintain the Rights in Book Entry Form. In such event, the Book Entry Rights Exercise Procedures shall be deemed to replace the procedures set out in the Agreement with respect to the exercise of Rights and all provision of this Agreement referring to the Rights Certificates shall be applicable to Rights registered in Book Entry Form in like manner as the Rights in certificated form. In the event the Corporation determines to issue Rights Certificates, it will prepare and the Rights Agent will mail to each holder of record of Common Shares as of the Separation Time (other than an Acquiring Person, any other Person whose Rights are or become void pursuant to the provisions of Subsection 3.1(b) hereof and, in respect of any Rights Beneficially Owned by such Acquiring Person which are not held of record by such Acquiring Person, the holder of record of such Rights (a “Nominee”)) at such holder's address as shown by the records of the Corporation (the Corporation hereby agreeing to furnish copies of such records to the Rights Agent for this purpose):
Number of Shares Issuable upon Exercise From and after the Issue Date through and including the Expiration Date, the Holder hereof shall be entitled to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant in whole in accordance with the terms of subsection 1.2 or upon exercise of this Warrant in part in accordance with subsection 1.3, shares of Common Stock of the Company, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4.
Distribution of Additional Shares, Rights, etc If the Company or any affiliate of the Company determines to make any issuance or distribution of (1) additional Shares, (2) rights to subscribe for Shares, (3) securities convertible into Shares, or (4) rights to subscribe for such securities (each a “Distribution”), the Company shall notify the Depositary in writing in English as promptly as practicable and in any event before the Distribution starts and, if requested in writing by the Depositary, the Company shall promptly furnish to the Depositary a written opinion from U.S. counsel for the Company that is reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary, stating whether or not the Distribution requires, or, if made in the United States, would require, registration under the Securities Act of 1933. If, in the opinion of that counsel, the Distribution requires, or, if made in the United States, would require, registration under the Securities Act of 1933, that counsel shall furnish to the Depositary a written opinion as to whether or not there is a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 in effect that will cover that Distribution. The Company agrees with the Depositary that neither the Company nor any company controlled by, controlling or under common control with the Company will at any time deposit any Shares, either originally issued or previously issued and reacquired by the Company or any such affiliate, unless a Registration Statement is in effect as to such Shares under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Company delivers to the Depositary an opinion of United States counsel, satisfactory to the Depositary, to the effect that, upon deposit, those Shares will be eligible for public resale in the United States without further registration under the Securities Act of 1933.
Limitations on Rights Associated with Units The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Corporation, no dividend rights (except as expressly provided in Section 5(b) with respect to Dividend Equivalent Rights) and no voting rights, with respect to the Stock Units and any shares of Common Stock underlying or issuable in respect of such Stock Units until such shares of Common Stock are actually issued to and held of record by the Participant. No adjustments will be made for dividends or other rights of a holder for which the record date is prior to the date of issuance of the stock certificate.
Reservation and Availability of Shares of Preferred Stock (a) The Company covenants and agrees that it will cause to be reserved and kept available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Preferred Stock or out of authorized and issued shares of Preferred Stock held in its treasury, such number of shares of Preferred Stock as will from time to time be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Rights.
(b) The Company shall use its best efforts to cause, from and after such time as the Rights become exercisable, all shares of Preferred Stock issued or reserved for issuance in accordance with this Agreement to be listed, upon official notice of issuance, upon the principal national securities exchange, if any, upon which the Common Stock is listed or, if the principal market for the Common Stock is not on any national securities exchange, to be eligible for quotation in the National Association of Securities Dealers' Automated Quotation System or any successor thereto or other comparable quotation system.
(c) The Company covenants and agrees that it will take all such action as may be necessary to insure that all shares of Preferred Stock delivered upon exercise of Rights shall, at the time of delivery of the certificates for such shares (subject to payment of the Exercise Price in respect thereof), be duly and validly authorized and issued and fully paid and nonassessable shares.
(d) The Company shall use its best efforts to (i) file, as soon as practicable following the occurrence of the event described in Section 11(a)(ii), or as soon as is required by law following the Distribution Date, as the case may be, a registration statement under the Act, with respect to the shares of Preferred Stock purchasable upon exercise of the Rights on an appropriate form, (ii) cause such registration statement to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing, and (iii) cause such registration statement to remain effective (with a prospectus at all times meeting the requirements of the Act) until the earlier of (a) the date as of which the Rights are no longer exercisable for Preferred Stock, and (b) the earlier of the Expiration Date and the Final Expiration Date. The Company may temporarily suspend, for a period of time not to exceed ninety (90) days, the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock upon exercise of a Right in order to prepare and file a registration statement under the Act and permit it to become effective. The Company will also take such action as may be appropriate under, or to ensure compliance with, the securities or "blue sky" laws of the various states in connection with the exercisability of the Rights. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Rights shall not be exercisable in any jurisdiction unless the requisite qualification in such jurisdiction shall have been obtained and until a registration statement under the Act (if required) shall have been declared effective.
(e) The Company covenants and agrees that it will pay when due and payable any and all federal and state Transfer Taxes which may be payable in respect of the issuance or delivery of the Right Certificates or of any shares of Preferred Stock issued or delivered upon the exercise of Rights. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any Transfer Tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer or delivery of a Right Certificate to a Person other than, or the issuance or delivery of certificates for Preferred Stock upon exercise of Rights in a name other than that of, the registered holder of the Right Certificate, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver a Right Certificate or certificate for Preferred Stock to a Person other than such registered holder until any such Transfer Tax shall have been paid (any such Transfer Tax being payable by the holder of such Right Certificate at the time of surrender) or until it has been established to the Company's satisfaction that no such Transfer Tax is due.
Non-Transferability of RSUs Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in its discretion, RSUs may not be sold, assigned, alienated, transferred, pledged, attached or otherwise encumbered except as provided in Section 9(a) of the Plan. Any purported sale, assignment, alienation, transfer, pledge, attachment or other encumbrance of RSUs in violation of the provisions of this Section 6 and Section 9(a) of the Plan shall be void.
Availability of Preferred Shares The Company covenants and agrees that it will cause to be reserved and kept available out of its authorized and unissued Preferred Shares or any Preferred Shares held in its treasury, the number of Preferred Shares that will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Rights in accordance with Section 7. The Company covenants and agrees that it will take all such action as may be necessary to ensure that all Preferred Shares delivered upon exercise of Rights shall, at the time of delivery of the certificates for such Preferred Shares (subject to payment of the Purchase Price), be duly and validly authorized and issued and fully paid and nonassessable shares. The Company further covenants and agrees that it will pay when due and payable any and all federal and state transfer taxes and charges which may be payable in respect of the issuance or delivery of the Right Certificates or of any Preferred Shares upon the exercise of Rights. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any transfer tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer or delivery of Right Certificates to a person other than, or the issuance or delivery of certificates or depositary receipts for the Preferred Shares in a name other than that of, the registered holder of the Right Certificate evidencing Rights surrendered for exercise or to issue or to deliver any certificates or depositary receipts for Preferred Shares upon the exercise of any Rights until any such tax shall have been paid (any such tax being payable by the holder of such Right Certificate at the time of surrender) or until it has been established to the Company's reasonable satisfaction that no such tax is due.
Transfer of Shares After Registration; Suspension (a) The Subscriber agrees that it will not effect any disposition of the Securities or its right to purchase the Securities that would constitute a "sale" within the meaning of the 1933 Act, except as contemplated in the Registration Statement referred to in Section 9.1 and as described below or as otherwise permitted by law, and that it will promptly notify the Company of any material changes in the information set forth in the Registration Statement regarding the Subscriber or its plan of distribution.
(b) Except in the event that paragraph (c) below applies, the Company shall (i) if deemed necessary by the Company, prepare and file from time to time with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or a supplement or amendment to any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that such Registration Statement will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Shares and Warrant Shares being sold thereunder, such Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (ii) provide the Subscriber copies of any documents filed pursuant to Section 9.2(b)(i) as the Subscriber may reasonably request; and (iii) inform each Subscriber that the Company has complied with its obligations in Section 9.2(b)(i) (or that, if the Company has filed a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement which has not yet been declared effective, the Company will notify the Subscriber to that effect, will use its commercially reasonable efforts to secure the effectiveness of such post-effective amendment as promptly as possible and will promptly notify the Subscriber pursuant to Section 9.2(b)(i) hereof when the amendment has become effective).
(c) Subject to paragraph (d) below, in the event of: (i) any request by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority during the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related Prospectus or for additional information; (ii) the issuance by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; or (iv) any event or circumstance which, upon the advice of its counsel, necessitates the making of any changes in the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; then the Company shall deliver a certificate in writing to the Subscriber (the "Suspension Notice") to the effect of the foregoing and, upon receipt of such Suspension Notice, the Subscriber will refrain from selling any Shares and Warrant Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement (a "Suspension") until the Subscriber's receipt of copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus prepared and filed by the Company, or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the current Prospectus may be used, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in any such Prospectus. In the event of any Suspension, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the use of the Prospectus so suspended to be resumed as soon as reasonably practicable within 20 trading days after the delivery of a Suspension Notice to the Subscriber.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 9.2, the Subscriber shall not be prohibited from selling Shares under the Registration Statement as a result of Suspensions on more than two occasions of not more than 20 trading days each in any twelve month period.
(e) Provided that a Suspension is not then in effect, the Subscriber may sell the Shares and the Warrant Shares under the Registration Statement, provided that it arranges for delivery of a current Prospectus to the transferee of such Shares or Warrant Shares, as applicable. The Company shall provide such number of current Prospectuses to the Subscriber as the Subscriber may reasonably request, and shall supply copies to any other parties reasonably requiring such Prospectuses.
