Common use of Significant Transaction Clause in Contracts

Significant Transaction. If, at any time after the issuance of this Warrant but prior to the exercise hereof, any Significant Transaction occurs, then the Warrantholders shall have the right to acquire and receive, upon exercise of such Warrants, such cash, stock, securities or other assets or property as would have been issued or payable in such Significant Transaction (if the Warrantholder had exercised such Warrant immediately prior to such Significant Transaction) with respect to or in exchange, as applicable, for the number of Shares that would have been issued upon exercise of such Warrants, if such Warrants had been exercised immediately prior to the occurrence of such Significant Transaction. The Company shall be required to make provision for the foregoing in the definitive agreement, if any, relating to such Significant Transaction; and shall not effect any Significant Transaction unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the surviving Person (if other than the Company) resulting from such Significant Transaction, shall assume, by written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant in all material respects (including with respect to the provisions of this Section 12 and, if the issuer of any securities into which this Warrant is exercisable is subject to the U.S. Maritime Laws, the provisions of this Warrant related thereto with respect to such issuer), the obligation to deliver to the Warrantholders such cash, stock, securities or other assets or property which, in accordance with Section 12(B), the Warrantholders are entitled to receive upon exercise of the Warrants. Notwithstanding the two foregoing sentences, if stock or securities of any Person not subject to U.S. Maritime Laws shall be issued or payable in such Significant Transaction, then in connection with such Significant Transaction, the Board of Directors shall consider in good faith whether it is possible to issue to the Warrantholder any such stock, securities or other ownership interests directly in the name of such Warrantholder, and if the Board of Directors determines in its sole discretion that it would be possible to do so without creating a material adverse effect on such Warrantholders, then it will use reasonable efforts to provide for such direct issuance; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be required to take any such action if, as so determined by the Board of Directors, it could interfere with, delay, or otherwise adversely affect the expected benefits of such Significant Transaction to the Company or its stockholders. The provisions of this Section 12(G)(b) (and any equivalent thereof in any such new warrant) shall apply to successive transactions.
