Right of Repurchase To the extent provided in the Company's bylaws as amended from time to time, the Company shall have the right to repurchase all or any part of the shares of Common Stock you acquire pursuant to the exercise of your option.
Shares Subject to Award The Award consists of 25,000 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock of the Company (“Stock”). The undersigned’s rights to the Shares are subject to the restrictions described in this Agreement and the Plan (which is incorporated herein by reference with the same effect as if set forth herein in full) in addition to such other restrictions, if any, as may be imposed by law.
Shares Subject to Agreement The Shares shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in Section 5, no adjustment shall be made for dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to the issuance of the Shares. The Company shall not be required to deliver any Shares until the requirements of any federal or state securities or other laws, rules or regulations (including the rules of any securities exchange) as may be determined by the Committee to be applicable are satisfied.
Exercise of Repurchase Right Any Repurchase Right under Paragraphs 15(a) or 15(b) shall be exercised by giving notice of exercise as provided herein to Optionee or the estate of Optionee, as applicable. Such right shall be exercised, and the repurchase price thereunder shall be paid, by the Company within a ninety (90) day period beginning on the date of notice to the Company of the occurrence of such Repurchase Event (except in the case of termination or cessation of services as director, where such option period shall begin upon the occurrence of the Repurchase Event). Such repurchase price shall be payable only in the form of cash (including a check drafted on immediately available funds) or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness of the Optionee for the Shares. If the Company can not purchase all such Shares because it is unable to meet the financial tests set forth in the Nevada corporation law, the Company shall have the right to purchase as many Shares as it is permitted to purchase under such sections. Any Shares not purchased by the Company hereunder shall no longer be subject to the provisions of this Section 15.
Shares Subject to Exercise The Option shall be immediately exercisable and shall remain exercisable for the entire Term specified in Paragraph 2 of this Agreement.
Repurchase Right After (i) Termination of the Optionee by the Company with Cause or resignation by the Optionee without Good Reason, or (ii) the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Optionee’s Termination by the Company without Cause or resignation by the Optionee with Good Reason, regardless of whether such Termination or resignation is by virtue of the Optionee’s death, or otherwise, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to repurchase all or any number of the then Unvested Shares that are issued and outstanding and owned or held by the Optionee, subject to and in accordance with the terms of this Section 7. The Company may exercise such repurchase right by delivering to the Optionee, within thirty (30) days following the effective date of such Termination or resignation, a notice (the “Notice”) of the Company’s intention to exercise its repurchase right under this Section 7, specifying the number of such Unvested Shares that the Company desires to repurchase, whereupon, subject to the provisions of this Section 7, the Company shall become legally obligated to repurchase from the Optionee, and the Optionee shall become legally obligated to sell to the Company, at the Closing (as such term is defined below), the number of Unvested Shares referred to in the Notice, and the Company shall not be required after delivery of the Notice to treat the Optionee as owner of the Unvested Shares referred to in the Notice, to accord the right to vote to the Optionee with respect thereto or to pay dividends thereon. The purchase price per share for all of the Unvested Shares repurchased by the Company pursuant to this Section 7 shall be the purchase price originally paid by the Optionee to the Company for each of such Unvested Shares (subject to adjustment pursuant to Section II hereof), payable, at the election of the Company, in cash or through the cancellation of indebtedness. The closing (the “Closing”) of the repurchase by the Company of all or any number of Unvested Shares pursuant to this Section 7 shall take place at the offices of the Company at such time and on such date as the Company shall specify in the Notice, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the date of such Termination or resignation. At the Closing, the Optionee shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Company a certificate or certificates evidencing the number of Unvested Shares to be repurchased, duly endorsed for transfer or accompanied by duly executed stock powers, against payment by the Company of the purchase price therefor in accordance with the terms of this Section 7. In the event that the Company has a right to repurchase any Unvested Shares pursuant to this Section 7 and elects not to, or fails to, repurchase all or a portion of such Unvested Shares in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7, all of such Unvested Shares not so repurchased shall, thereafter, be treated as Vested Shares for all purposes of this Agreement.
Exercise of Repurchase Option The Repurchase Option shall be exercised by written notice signed by an officer of the Company or by any assignee or assignees of the Company and delivered or mailed as provided in Section 17(a). Such notice shall identify the number of shares of Stock to be purchased and shall notify Purchaser of the time, place and date for settlement of such purchase, which shall be scheduled by the Company within the term of the Repurchase Option set forth in Section 2(a) above. The Company shall be entitled to pay for any shares of Stock purchased pursuant to its Repurchase Option, at the Company's option, in cash or by offset against any indebtedness owing to the Company by Purchaser, or by a combination of both. Upon delivery of such notice and payment of the purchase price in any of the ways described above, the Company shall become the legal and beneficial owner of the Stock being repurchased and all rights and interest therein or related thereto, and the Company shall have the right to transfer to its own name the Stock being repurchased by the Company, without further action by Purchaser.
Restrictions on Grant of the Option and Issuance of Shares The grant of the Option and the issuance of shares of Stock upon exercise of the Option shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state or foreign law with respect to such securities. The Option may not be exercised if the issuance of shares of Stock upon exercise would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. In addition, the Option may not be exercised unless (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act shall at the time of exercise of the Option be in effect with respect to the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option or (ii) in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option may be issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. THE PARTICIPANT IS CAUTIONED THAT THE OPTION MAY NOT BE EXERCISED UNLESS THE FOREGOING CONDITIONS ARE SATISFIED. ACCORDINGLY, THE PARTICIPANT MAY NOT BE ABLE TO EXERCISE THE OPTION WHEN DESIRED EVEN THOUGH THE OPTION IS VESTED. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any shares subject to the Option shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the exercise of the Option, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
Shares Subject to the Plan Subject to the provisions of Section 13 of the Plan, the maximum number of Shares that the Company may issue for all Awards is 1,453,334 Shares, provided that the Company shall not make additional awards under the Commonwealth Energy Corporation 1999 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended and assumed by Commerce Energy Group, Inc. For all Awards, the Shares issued pursuant to the Plan may be authorized but unissued Shares, or Shares that the Company has reacquired or otherwise holds in treasury. Shares that are subject to an Award that for any reason expires, is forfeited, is cancelled, or becomes unexercisable, and Shares that are for any other reason not paid or delivered under the Plan shall again, except to the extent prohibited by Applicable Law, be available for subsequent Awards under the Plan. In addition, the Committee may make future Awards with respect to Shares that the Company retains from otherwise delivering pursuant to an Award either (i) as payment of the exercise price of an Award, or (ii) in order to satisfy the withholding or employment taxes due upon the grant, exercise, vesting or distribution of an Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to adjustments pursuant to Section 13 below, the number of Shares that are available for ISO Awards shall be determined, to the extent required under applicable tax laws, by reducing the number of Shares designated in the preceding paragraph by the number of Shares granted pursuant to Awards (whether or not Shares are issued pursuant to such Awards), provided that any Shares that are either issued or purchased under the Plan and forfeited back to the Plan, or surrendered in payment of the Exercise Price for an Award shall be available for issuance pursuant to future ISO Awards.
Release of Shares From Repurchase Option (a) 25% of the Shares shall be released from the Company’s repurchase option one year after the date of this Agreement, 25% of the Shares shall be released from the Company’s repurchase option two years after the date of this Agreement, 25% of the Shares shall be released from the Company’s repurchase option three years after the date of this Agreement, and the remaining 25% of the Shares shall be released from the repurchase option four years after such date, subject to Director continuing to be a Service Provider on such dates.
