Sale of New Securities For so long as the Focus Investor, together with its Affiliates, owns 10% or more of all of the outstanding Common Shares (counting for such purposes all Common Shares into or for which the securities of the Company owned by the Investor and its Affiliates are directly or indirectly convertible or exercisable) (before giving effect to any issuances triggering provisions of this Section) if, at any time after the date hereof and on or before the fifth anniversary of the date hereof, the Company makes any nonpublic offering or sale of any equity security (including Common Shares, preferred shares or restricted shares), or any securities, options or debt that is convertible or exchangeable into equity or that includes an equity component (such as an “equity kicker”) (any such security, a “New Security”) (other than (i) any Common Shares or other securities issuable upon the exercise or conversion of any securities of the Company issued or agreed to be issued as of the date hereof; (ii) pursuant to the granting or exercise of employee share options or other share incentives pursuant to the Company’s share incentive plans approved by the Board of Directors or the issuance of shares pursuant to the Company’s employee share purchase plan approved by the Board of Directors or similar plan where shares are being issued or offered to a trust, other entity or otherwise, for the benefit of any employees, officers or directors of the Company, in each case in the ordinary course of providing incentive compensation; or (iii) issuances of shares or other securities as full or partial consideration for a merger, acquisition, joint venture, strategic alliance, license agreement or other similar nonfinancing transaction), then, to the extent not prohibited, not restricted, and not requiring any shareholders’ approval by any applicable law or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any securities exchange or any securities exchange regulation, the Focus Investor shall be afforded the opportunity to acquire from the Company for the same price (net of any underwriting discounts or sales commissions) and on the same terms (except that, to the extent permitted by law and the Articles of Association, the Investor may elect to receive such securities in nonvoting form, convertible into voting securities in a widely dispersed or public offering) as such securities are proposed to be offered to others, up to the amount of New Securities in the aggregate required to enable it to maintain its interest in the Purchased Shares proportionate to the total number of Common Shares of the Company either outstanding or issued pursuant to currently exercisable rights of Common Share-equivalent interest in the Company immediately prior to any such issuance of New Securities; provided, that, except in the case of any transfer of Common Shares to an Affiliate of the Focus Investor, who will from that date forward assume jointly with the Focus Investor all obligations under the Transaction Documents, such right to acquire such securities is not transferable. The amount of New Securities that the Focus Investor shall be entitled to purchase in the aggregate shall be determined by multiplying (x) the total number or principal amount of such offered New Securities by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Purchased Shares held by the Focus Investor, and the denominator of which is the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of such New Securities.
Suspension of Registration If the continued use of the Shelf Registration Statement at any time would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, suspend use of the Shelf Registration Statement (a “Shelf Suspension”); provided, however, that the Company shall not be permitted to exercise a Shelf Suspension (i) more than twice during any 12-month period; or (ii) for a period exceeding 60 days on any one occasion. In the case of a Shelf Suspension, the Holders agree to suspend use of the applicable Prospectus in connection with any sale or purchase of, or offer to sell or purchase, Registrable Securities, upon receipt of the notice referred to above. The Company shall immediately notify the Holders in writing upon the termination of any Shelf Suspension, amend or supplement the Prospectus, if necessary, so it does not contain any untrue statement or omission and furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented as the Holders may reasonably request. The Company shall, if necessary, supplement or amend the Shelf Registration Statement, if required by the registration form used by the Company for the Shelf Registration Statement or by the instructions applicable to such registration form or by the Securities Act or the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder or as may reasonably be requested by any Holder.
Limitations on Registration Rights Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Representative may not exercise its rights under Section 2.1 and 2.2 hereunder after five (5) and seven (7) years after the effective date of the registration statement relating to the Company’s initial public offering, respectively, and (ii) the Representative may not exercise its rights under Section 2.1 more than one time.
Registration on Request (a) Except as provided in subsection (b) of this Section 2.1, upon the written request of Holders (which request must be initiated by either Stonegate Securities, Inc. or any of its directors or officers who are Holders) owning at least 60,000 Registrable Securities (as appropriately adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and the like) (which request shall specify the number of Registrable Securities to be registered), the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible, notify all other Holders of such request (and allowing them to participate therein), and use its best efforts to effect the registration under tie Securities Act of the Registrable Securities of all Holders which the Company has been so requested to register.
(b) The Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any registration requested by the Holders pursuant to subsection (a) above (i) after two years from the date of this Warrant, or (ii) after the Company has effected one (1) registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 and such registration has been declared or ordered effective.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, a registration requested pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall not be deemed to have been effected (i) unless it has become effective and remains effective for at least 180 days; provided, however, that a registration which does not become effective after the Company has filed a registration statement with respect thereto solely by reason of the refusal by a requesting Holder, in its sole discretion, to proceed with such registration shall be deemed to have been effected by the Company at the request of the Holders unless the requesting Holder shall have elected to pay all Company Registration Expenses (as defined in Section 4 below) in connection with such registration, (ii) if after it has become effective such registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or other governmental agency or court for any reason other than a misrepresentation or an omission by any participating Holder, or (iii) if the conditions to closing specified in the purchase agreement or underwriting agreement entered into in connection with such registration are not satisfied other than by reason of some wrongful act or omission, or act or omission in bad faith, by any participating Holder.
(d) The Company shall not be obligated to effect any registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 within 90 days after the effective date of any underwritten public offering by the Company (which period may be extended up to an additional 90 days if, and only to the extent that, all directors, executive officers and other persons with registration rights with respect to securities of the Company are required to execute standard lockup agreements with the underwriters in such public offering) or of any previous registration withdrawn at the request of the requesting Holders. The Company may postpone for up to 90 days the filing or the effectiveness of a registration statement for a registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 if the financial advisor and/or underwriter to the Company certifies to the holders of the Registrable Securities that such registration would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company; provided, however, that in such event the Holders of Registrable Securities requesting such Registration shall be entitled to withdraw such request and, if such request is withdrawn, such Registration shall not count as the one permitted registration under this Section 2.1 and the Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with such postponed or withdrawn registration. Notwithstanding the above, the Company may delay a demand registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 only once in any twelve month period. In addition, upon written notice from the Company to Holder of the effectiveness of an underwritten public offering, Holder agrees not to sell any Registrable Securities under any registration statement effected under this Section 2.1 for a period of thirty (30) days following such effective date.
