Notice of Inability to Use Automatic Shelf Registration Statement Form If at any time when Securities remain unsold by the Underwriters the Company receives from the Commission a notice pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) or otherwise ceases to be eligible to use the automatic shelf registration statement form, the Company will (i) promptly notify the Representatives, (ii) promptly file a new registration statement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement on the proper form relating to the Securities, in a form satisfactory to the Representatives, (iii) use its best efforts to cause such new registration statement or post-effective amendment to be declared effective and (iv) promptly notify the Representatives of such effectiveness. The Company will take all other action necessary or appropriate to permit the public offering and sale of the Securities to continue as contemplated in the registration statement that was the subject of the Rule 401(g)(2) notice or for which the Company has otherwise become ineligible. References herein to the Registration Statement shall include such new registration statement or post-effective amendment, as the case may be.
Withdrawal of Stop Orders; Subsequent Shelf Registrations If the Initial Shelf Registration or any Subsequent Shelf Registration ceases to be effective for any reason at any time during the Effectiveness Period (other than because of the sale of all of the Securities registered thereunder), the Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness thereof, and in any event shall file an additional Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415 covering all of the Registrable Securities covered by and not sold under the Initial Shelf Registration or an earlier Subsequent Shelf Registration (each, a “Subsequent Shelf Registration”). If a Subsequent Shelf Registration is filed, the Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Subsequent Shelf Registration to be declared effective under the Securities Act as soon as practicable after such filing and to keep such subsequent Shelf Registration continuously effective for a period equal to the number of days in the Effectiveness Period less the aggregate number of days during which the Initial Shelf Registration or any Subsequent Shelf Registration was previously continuously effective. As used herein the term “Shelf Registration” means the Initial Shelf Registration and any Subsequent Shelf Registration.
Resale Shelf Registration Subject to Section 2.9, Ashford Prime shall prepare and file not later than 54 weeks after the consummation date of the Transaction, a “shelf” registration statement with respect to the resale of the Registrable Securities (“Resale Shelf Registration”) by the Holders thereof on an appropriate form for an offering to be made on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (the “Resale Shelf Registration Statement”) and permitting registration of such Registrable Securities for resale by such Holders in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by the Holders and set forth in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement. Ashford Prime shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as promptly as reasonably practicable after the filing thereof, and, subject to Sections 2.1(e) and 2.9, to keep such Resale Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective for a period ending when all shares of Common Stock covered by the Resale Shelf Registration Statement are no longer Registrable Securities. In addition, if the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is not on Form S-3 (or any similar or successor form) and during the period that the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is effective Ashford Prime becomes eligible to use Form S-3 (or any similar or successor form), Ashford Prime shall be entitled to amend the Resale Shelf Registration Statement so that it becomes a registration statement on Form S-3 (or any similar or successor form); provided, however, that Ashford Prime shall use its best efforts to have such amendment declared effective as soon as practicable after filing. In the event that Ashford Prime fails to so file, or if filed fails to so maintain the effectiveness of, a Resale Shelf Registration Statement, Ashford Trust OP may participate in a Piggyback Registration pursuant to Section 2.1(b) herein; provided, further, that if and so long as a Resale Shelf Registration Statement is on file and effective (subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement), then Ashford Prime shall have no obligation to allow participation in a Piggyback Registration. At the time the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, Ashford Trust OP and each other Holder that has delivered a duly completed and executed Notice and Questionnaire to Ashford Prime on or prior to the date ten (10) Business Days prior to such time of effectiveness shall be named as a selling securityholder in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus in such a manner as to permit Ashford Trust OP to deliver such prospectus to purchasers of Registrable Securities in accordance with applicable law. If required by applicable law, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, after effectiveness of the Resale Shelf Registration Statement, Ashford Prime shall file a supplement to such prospectus or amendment to the Resale Shelf Registration Statement not less than once a quarter as necessary to name as selling securityholders therein any Holders that provide to Ashford Prime a duly completed and executed Notice and Questionnaire and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any post-effective amendment to such Resale Shelf Registration Statement filed for such purpose to be declared effective by the Commission as promptly as reasonably practicable after the filing thereof.
Subsequent Shelf Registration If any Shelf ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time while Registrable Securities are still outstanding, the Company shall, subject to Section 3.4, use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable cause such Shelf to again become effective under the Securities Act (including using its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable amend such Shelf in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf or file an additional registration statement as a Shelf Registration (a “Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement”) registering the resale of all Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) business days prior to such filing), and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, any Holder named therein. If a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is filed, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the filing thereof (it being agreed that the Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) if the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) at the most recent applicable eligibility determination date) and (ii) keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, available for use to permit the Holders named therein to sell their Registrable Securities included therein and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on another appropriate form. The Company’s obligation under this Section 2.1.2, shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section 3.4.
Resale Shelf Registration Statement Subject to the other applicable provisions of this Agreement, the Company shall file within ninety (90) days of the date hereof and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause to go effective as promptly as practicable a registration statement covering the sale or distribution from time to time by the Holders, on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act of all of the Registrable Securities on Form S-3 (except if the Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, then such registration shall be on another appropriate form (including Form S-1) and shall provide for the registration of such Registrable Securities for resale by such Holders in accordance with any reasonable method of distribution elected by the Holders) (the “Resale Shelf Registration Statement” and such registration, the “Resale Shelf Registration”), and if the Company is a WKSI as of the filing date, the Resale Shelf Registration Statement shall be an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement. If the Resale Shelf Registration Statement is not an Automatic Shelf Registration Statement, then the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Resale Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Commission prevents the Company from including any or all of the Registrable Securities on the Resale Shelf Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the Registrable Securities by the Holders, the Resale Shelf Registration Statement shall register the resale of a number of shares of the Registrable Securities which is equal to the maximum number of shares as is permitted by the Commission, and, subject to the provisions of this Section 1.1, the Company shall continue to its use commercially reasonable efforts to register all remaining Registrable Securities as set forth in this Section 1.1. In such event, the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be registered for each Holder in the Resale Shelf Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all Holders, provided, however, that, prior to reducing the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be registered for any Holder in such Resale Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall first remove any shares of Registrable Securities to be registered for any Person other than a Holder that was proposed to be included in such Resale Shelf Registration Statement. The Company shall continue to use its commercially reasonable efforts to register all remaining Registrable Securities as promptly as practicable in accordance with the applicable rules, regulations and guidance of the Commission. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Commission, by written comment, limits the Company’s ability to file, or prohibits or delays the filing of, a Resale Shelf Registration Statement or a Subsequent Shelf Registration with respect to any or all the Registrable Securities, the Company’s compliance with such limitation, prohibition or delay solely to the extent of such limitation, prohibition or delay shall not be a breach or default by the Company under this Agreement and shall not be deemed a failure by the Company to use “commercially reasonable efforts” or “reasonable efforts” as set forth above or elsewhere in this Agreement.
Shelf Takedowns In the event that the Company files a Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.1.1 and such registration statement becomes effective, the Holders shall have the right at any time or from time to time to elect to sell their Registrable Shares in any manner described under “Plan of Distribution” in such registration statement, including pursuant to an underwritten offering of Registrable Shares available for sale pursuant to such registration statement (“Shelf Registrable Shares”). A Holder shall make such election with respect to an underwritten offering by delivering to the Company a written request (a “Shelf Underwriting Request”) for such underwritten offering to the Company specifying the number of Shelf Registrable Shares that the Holder(s) desire(s) to sell pursuant to such underwritten offering (the “Shelf Underwriting”); provided that the Shelf Underwriting Request shall provide for the sale of no less than $10 million of Registrable Shares. As promptly as practicable, but no later than two (2) Business Days after receipt of a Shelf Underwriting Request, the Company shall give written notice (the “Shelf Underwriting Notice”) of such Shelf Underwriting Request to all other Holders. The Company shall include in such Shelf Underwriting (x) the Registrable Shares of the Holder(s) making such Shelf Underwriting Request and (y) the Shelf Registrable Shares of any other Holder of Shelf Registrable Shares which shall have made a written request to the Company for inclusion in such Shelf Underwriting (which request shall specify the maximum number of Shelf Registrable Shares intended to be disposed of by such Holder) within five (5) days after the receipt of the Shelf Underwriting Notice. The Company shall, as expeditiously as possible (and in any event within 20 days after the receipt of a Shelf Underwriting Request) use its reasonable best efforts to facilitate such Shelf Underwriting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Holder wishes to engage in an underwritten block trade off of a Shelf Registration Statement, then notwithstanding the foregoing time periods, the Holder only needs to notify the Company of the block trade Shelf Underwriting on the day such offering is to commence and the Company shall notify other Holders on the same day and other Holders must elect whether or not to participate on the day such offering is to commence, and the Company shall as expeditiously as possible use its reasonable best efforts to facilitate such Shelf Underwriting, provided that the Holder requesting such underwritten block trade shall use reasonable best efforts to work with the Company and the underwriters prior to making such request in order to facilitate preparation of the registration statement, prospectus supplement and other offering documentation related to the underwritten block trade. The Company shall, at the request of any Holder of Registrable Shares registered on such Shelf Registration Statement, file any prospectus supplement, any post-effective amendments and otherwise take any action necessary to include therein all disclosure and language deemed necessary or advisable by any Holder of Registrable Shares registered on such Shelf Registration Statement to effect such Shelf Underwriting. Once a Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective, the Holders of Registrable Shares may request, and the Company shall facilitate, an unlimited number of Shelf Underwritings with respect to such Shelf Registration Statement. In connection with any Shelf Underwriting, the Company shall follow the applicable procedures set forth in Section 2.3.
Subsequent Shelf Registrations If the Initial Shelf Registration or any Subsequent Shelf Registration ceases to be effective for any reason at any time during the Effectiveness Period (other than because of the sale of all of the securities registered thereunder), the Issuers shall use their reasonable best efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness thereof, and in any event shall within 45 days of such cessation of effectiveness amend the Shelf Registration in a manner reasonably expected to obtain the withdrawal of the order suspending the effectiveness thereof, or file an additional "shelf" Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415 covering all of the Registrable Securities (a "Subsequent Shelf Registration"). If a Subsequent Shelf Registration is filed, the Issuers shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Subsequent Shelf Registration to be declared effective as soon as practicable after such filing and to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective for a period equal to the number of days in the Effectiveness Period less the aggregate number of days during which the Initial Shelf Registration or any Subsequent Shelf Registration was previously continuously effective. As used herein the term "Shelf Registration" means the Initial Shelf Registration and any Subsequent Shelf Registration.
Priority on Demand Registrations and Shelf Offerings The Corporation shall not include in any Demand Registration or Shelf Offering any securities that are not Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of Holders representing a majority of the Registrable Securities included in such registration or offering. If a Demand Registration or a Shelf Offering is an underwritten offering and the managing underwriters advise the Corporation in writing that in their opinion the number of Registrable Securities and, if permitted hereunder, other securities requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number of Registrable Securities and other securities, if any, that can be sold therein without adversely affecting the marketability, proposed offering price, timing or method of distribution of the offering, the Corporation shall include in such registration or offering, as applicable, prior to the inclusion of any securities which are not Registrable Securities the number of Registrable Securities requested by Holders to be included that, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold, without any such adverse effect, pro rata among the respective Holders thereof on the basis of the amount of Registrable Securities owned by each such Holder that such Holder of Registrable Securities shall have requested to be included therein. Alternatively, if the number of Registrable Securities which can be included on a Shelf Registration Statement is otherwise limited by Instruction I.B.6 to Form S-3 (or any successor provision thereto), the Corporation shall include in such registration or offering prior to the inclusion of any securities which are not Registrable Securities the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included which can be included on such Shelf Registration Statement in accordance with the requirements of Form S-3, pro rata among the respective Holders thereof on the basis of the amount of Registrable Securities owned by each such Holder that such Holder of Registrable Securities shall have requested to be included therein.
Eligibility to Use Automatic Shelf Registration Form The Company has not received from the Commission any notice pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) objecting to use of the automatic shelf registration statement form. If at any time when Offered Securities remain unsold by the Underwriters the Company receives from the Commission a notice pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) or otherwise ceases to be eligible to use the automatic shelf registration statement form, the Company will (i) promptly notify the Representatives, (ii) promptly file a new registration statement or post-effective amendment on the proper form relating to the Offered Securities, in a form satisfactory to the Representatives, (iii) use its best efforts to cause such registration statement or post-effective amendment to be declared effective as soon as practicable, and (iv) promptly notify the Representatives of such effectiveness. The Company will take all other action necessary or appropriate to permit the public offering and sale of the Offered Securities to continue as contemplated in the registration statement that was the subject of the Rule 401(g)(2) notice or for which the Company has otherwise become ineligible. References herein to the Registration Statement shall include such new registration statement or post-effective amendment, as the case may be.
