Piggy-Back Rights If at any time on or after the date the Company consummates a Business Combination the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into, equity securities, by the Company for its own account or for shareholders of the Company for their account (or by the Company and by shareholders of the Company including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.1), other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing shareholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company or (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, then the Company shall (x) give written notice of such proposed filing to the holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but in no event less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date, which notice shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, of the offering, and (y) offer to the holders of Registrable Securities in such notice the opportunity to register the sale of such number of shares of Registrable Securities as such holders may request in writing within five (5) days following receipt of such notice (a “Piggy-Back Registration”). The Company shall cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such registration and shall use its best efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Piggy-Back Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All holders of Registrable Securities proposing to distribute their securities through a Piggy-Back Registration that involves an Underwriter or Underwriters shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such Piggy-Back Registration.
Clawback Rights The Annual Bonus, and any and all stock based compensation (such as options and equity awards) (collectively, the “Clawback Benefits”) shall be subject to “Clawback Rights” as follows: during the period that the Executive is employed by the Parent and upon the termination of the Executive’s employment and for a period of three (3) years thereafter, if there is a restatement of any financial results from which any Clawback Benefits to the Executive shall have been determined, the Executive agrees to repay any amounts which were determined by reference to any Parent financial results which were later restated (as defined below), to the extent the Clawback Benefits amounts paid exceed the Clawback Benefits amounts that would have been paid, based on the restatement of the Parent’s financial information. All Clawback Benefits amounts resulting from such restated financial results shall be retroactively adjusted by the Compensation Committee to take into account the restated results, and any excess portion of the Clawback Benefits resulting from such restated results shall be immediately surrendered to the Parent and if not so surrendered within ninety (90) days of the revised calculation being provided to the Executive by the Compensation Committee following a publicly announced restatement, the Parent shall have the right to take any and all action to effectuate such adjustment. The calculation of the revised Clawback Benefits amount shall be determined by the Compensation Committee in good faith and in accordance with applicable law, rules and regulations. All determinations by the Compensation Committee with respect to the Clawback Rights shall be final and binding on the Parent and the Executive. The Clawback Rights shall terminate following a Change of Control as defined in Section 12(f), subject to applicable law, rules and regulations. For purposes of this Section 7, a restatement of financial results that requires a repayment of a portion of the Clawback Benefits amounts shall mean a restatement resulting from material non-compliance of the Parent with any financial reporting requirement under the federal securities laws and shall not include a restatement of financial results resulting from subsequent changes in accounting pronouncements or requirements which were not in effect on the date the financial statements were originally prepared (“Restatements”). The parties acknowledge it is their intention that the foregoing Clawback Rights as relates to Restatements conform in all respects to the provisions of the Dxxx-Fxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (“Dxxx-Xxxxx Act”) and require recovery of all “incentive-based” compensation, pursuant to the provisions of the Dxxx-Xxxxx Act and any and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder from time to time in effect. Accordingly, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed automatically amended from time to time to assure compliance with the Dxxx-Xxxxx Act and such rules and regulations as hereafter may be adopted and in effect.
Piggyback Rights If, at any time on or after the date the Company consummates a Business Combination, the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into equity securities, for its own account or for the account of stockholders of the Company (or by the Company and by the stockholders of the Company including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof), other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing stockholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company or (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, then the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but not less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement, which notice shall (A) describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, in such offering, and (B) offer to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities the opportunity to register the sale of such number of Registrable Securities as such Holders may request in writing within five (5) days after receipt of such written notice (such Registration a “Piggyback Registration”). The Company shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggyback Registration and shall use its best efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested by the Holders pursuant to this subsection 2.2.1 to be included in a Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company included in such Registration and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an Underwritten Offering under this subsection 2.2.1 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the Company.
Piggy-Back Registration Rights (a) The Company shall give the Holder at least 30 days’ prior written notice of each filing by the Company of a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). If requested by the Holder in writing within 20 days after receipt of any such notice, the Company shall, at the Company’s sole expense (other than the underwriting discounts, if any, payable in respect of the shares sold by an Holder), register all or, at Holder’s option, any portion of the Holder’s shares of common stock received upon conversion of the Shares (the “Common Stock Shares”) concurrently with the registration of such other securities, all to the extent requisite to permit the public offering and sale of the Common Stock Shares through the securities exchange, if any, on which the Company’s common stock is being sold or on the over-the-counter market, and will use its reasonable best efforts through its officers, directors, auditors, and counsel to cause such registration statement to become effective as promptly as practicable. If the managing underwriter of any such offering shall determine and advise the Company that, in its opinion, the distribution of all or a portion of the Common Stock Shares requested to be included in the registration concurrently with the securities being registered by the Company would materially adversely affect the distribution of such securities by the Company, then the Company will include in such registration first, the securities that the Company proposes to sell and second, the Common Stock Shares requested to be included in such registration, to the extent permitted by the managing underwriter.
(b) In the event of a registration pursuant to these provisions, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Common Stock Shares so registered to be registered or qualified for sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Holder may reasonably request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify to do business in any state by reason of this section in which it is not otherwise required to qualify to do business.
(c) The Company shall keep effective any registration or qualification contemplated by this section and shall from time to time amend or supplement each applicable registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, application, document and communication for such period of time as shall be required to permit the Holder to complete the offer and sale of the Common Stock Shares covered thereby.
(d) In the event of a registration pursuant to the provisions of this section, the Company shall furnish to the Holder such reasonable number of copies of the registration statement and of each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case, including all exhibits), of each prospectus contained in such registration statement and each supplement or amendment thereto (including each preliminary prospectus), all of which shall conform to the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, and such other documents, as the Holder may reasonably request to facilitate the disposition of the Common Stock Shares included in such registration.
(e) The Company shall notify the Holder promptly when such registration statement has become effective or a supplement to any prospectus forming a part of such registration statement has been filed.
(f) The Company shall advise the Holder promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge of the issuance of any stop order by the Commission suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement, or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose and promptly use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal if such stop order should be issued.
(g) The Company shall promptly notify the Holder at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, and at the reasonable request of the Holder prepare and furnish to it such number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Common Stock Shares or securities, such prospectus shall not include 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 in the light of the circumstances under which they were made. The Holder shall suspend all sales of the Common Stock Shares upon receipt of such notice from the Company and shall not re-commence sales until they receive copies of any necessary amendment or supplement to such prospectus, which shall be delivered to the Holder within 30 days of the date of such notice from the Company.
(h) If requested by the underwriter for any underwritten offering of Common Stock Shares, the Company and the Holder will enter into an underwriting agreement with such underwriter for such offering, which shall be reasonably satisfactory in substance and form to the Company, the Company’s counsel and the Holder’ counsel, and the underwriter, and such agreement shall contain such representations and warranties by the Company and the Holder and such other terms and provisions as are customarily contained in an underwriting agreement with respect to secondary distributions solely by selling stockholders, including, without limitation, indemnities substantially to the effect and to the extent provided below.
Discretionary Rights The Advance Rates may be increased or decreased by Agent at any time and from time to time in the exercise of its reasonable discretion. Each Borrower consents to any such increases or decreases and acknowledges that decreasing the Advance Rates or increasing or imposing reserves may limit or restrict Advances requested by Borrowing Agent. The rights of Agent under this subsection are subject to the provisions of Section 16.2(b).
Participation Rights (a) At least 30 days prior to any Transfer of Stockholder Shares which are shares of Preferred Stock by the GTCR Investors, the GTCR Investors shall deliver a written notice (the "PREFERRED SALE NOTICE") to the Company and the other Stockholders (the "NON-GTCR STOCKHOLDERS") specifying in reasonable detail the identity of the prospective transferee(s) and the terms and conditions of the Transfer. The Non-GTCR Stockholders may elect to participate in the contemplated Transfer by delivering written notice to the GTCR Investors within 30 days after delivery of the Preferred Sale Notice. If any Non-GTCR Stockholders have elected to participate in such Transfer, the GTCR Investors and such Non-GTCR Stockholders will be entitled to sell in the contemplated Transfer, at the same price and on the same terms, a number of shares of Preferred Stock equal to the product of (A) the quotient determined by dividing the number of shares of Preferred Stock owned by such Person by the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock owned by the GTCR Investors and the Non-GTCR Stockholders participating in such sale and (B) the number of shares of Preferred Stock to be sold in the contemplated Transfer.
(b) At least 30 days prior to any Transfer of Stockholder Shares which are shares of Common Stock by the GTCR Investors, the Bajaj Group or the Xxxxxxxxxx Group (collectively, the "SUBJECT STOCKHOLDERS"), the Subject Stockholder proposing to make such Transfer shall deliver a written notice (the "COMMON SALE NOTICE") to the Company and the other Stockholders (collectively, the "NON-SUBJECT STOCKHOLDERS") specifying in reasonable detail the identity of the prospective transferee(s) and the terms and conditions of the Transfer. The Non-Subject Stockholders may elect to participate in the contemplated Transfer by delivering written notice to the Subject Stockholders within 30 days after delivery of the Common Sale Notice. If any Non-Subject Stockholders have elected to participate in such Transfer, the Subject Stockholders and such Non-Subject Stockholders will be entitled to sell in the contemplated Transfer, at the same price and on the same terms, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the quotient determined by dividing the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Person by the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Common Stock owned by the Subject Stockholders and the Non-Subject Stockholders participating in such sale, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock to be sold in the contemplated Transfer. For purposes of this SECTION 4(b), if a holder of shares of Class B Preferred elects to participate in the contemplated Transfer, (x) the "number of shares of Common Stock owned" by such holder shall equal the quotient determined by dividing (1) the aggregate liquidation value of the shares of Class B Preferred then owned by such holder (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon), by (2) 81.667% of the consideration per share of Common Stock to be paid to the Subject Stockholders by the prospective transferee(s) in the contemplated Transfer, and (y) "the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Common Stock" shall include the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such holder as calculated pursuant to clause (x) above.
(i) The GTCR Investors will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the agreement of the prospective transferee(s) to the participation of the Non-GTCR Stockholders in any Transfer contemplated by Section 4(a), and the GTCR Investors will not transfer any of their Stockholder Shares to the prospective transferee(s) unless (A) the prospective transferee(s) agrees to allow the participation of the Non-GTCR Stockholders at the same price and on the same terms, or (B) the GTCR Investors agree to purchase the number of such class of Stockholder Shares from the Non-GTCR Stockholders which the Non-GTCR Stockholders would have been entitled to sell pursuant to SECTION 4(a) for the consideration per share to be paid to the GTCR Investors by the prospective transferee(s).
(ii) The Subject Stockholders will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the agreement of the prospective transferee(s) to the participation of the Non-Subject Stockholders in any Transfer contemplated by Section 4(b), and the Subject Stockholders will not transfer any of their Stockholder Shares to the prospective transferee(s) unless (A) the prospective transferee(s) agrees to allow the participation of the Non-Subject Stockholders at the same price and on the same terms, or (B) the Subject Stockholders agree to purchase the number of such class of Stockholder Shares from the Non-Subject Stockholders which the Non-Subject Stockholders would have been entitled to sell pursuant to SECTION 4(b) for the consideration per share to be paid to the Subject Stockholders by the prospective transferee(s).
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other provision of this Agreement, this SECTION 4 shall not apply with respect to (i) any Transfer of Stockholder Shares by any GTCR Investor to or among its Affiliates, (ii) an Exempt Bajaj Transfer, (iii) an Exempt Xxxxxxxxxx Transfer, or (iv) a Public Sale; provided that the restrictions contained in this Agreement will continue to be applicable to the Stockholder Shares after any Transfer pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) and, as a condition to such Transfer, the transferee of such Stockholder Shares shall agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement. Upon the Transfer of Stockholder Shares pursuant to clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the previous sentence, the transferees will deliver a written notice to the Company, which notice will disclose in reasonable detail the identity of such transferee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party hereto shall avoid the provisions of this Agreement by making one or more Transfers to one or more Affiliates and then disposing of all or any portion of such party's interest in any such Affiliate.
(e) This Section 4 will terminate upon the first to occur of (i) the consummation of an Approved Sale and (ii) the consummation of a Qualified Public Offering.
Participation Right For so long as this Warrant is outstanding by a Qualified Holder, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, directly or indirectly, issue, offer, sell, grant any option or right to purchase, or otherwise dispose of (or announce any issuance, offer, sale, grant of any option or right to purchase or other disposition of) any equity security or any equity-linked or related security (including, without limitation, any “equity security” (as that term is defined under Rule 405 promulgated under the 1933 Act)), any Convertible Securities (as defined below), any debt, any preferred shares or any purchase rights (any such issuance, offer, sale, grant, disposition or announcement is referred to as a “Subsequent Placement”) unless the Company shall have first complied with this Section 5. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the right set forth in this Section 5 is a right granted by the Company, separately, to each Qualified Holder.
a) At least five (5) Trading Days prior to any proposed or intended Subsequent Placement, the Company shall deliver to each Qualified Holder a written notice (each such notice, a “Pre-Notice”), which Pre-Notice shall not contain any information (including, without limitation, material, non-public information) other than: (A) if the proposed Offer Notice (as defined below) constitutes or contains material, non-public information, a statement asking whether the Investor is willing to accept material non-public information or (B) if the proposed Offer Notice does not constitute or contain material, non-public information, (x) a statement that the Company proposes or intends to effect a Subsequent Placement, (y) a statement that the statement in clause (x) above does not constitute material, non-public information and (z) a statement informing such Qualified Holder that it is entitled to receive an Offer Notice (as defined below) with respect to such Subsequent Placement upon its written request. Upon the written request of a Qualified Holder within three (3) Trading Days after the Company’s delivery to such Qualified Holder of such Pre-Notice, and only upon a written request by such Qualified Holder, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one (1) Trading Day after such request, deliver to such Qualified Holder an irrevocable written notice (the “Offer Notice”) of any proposed or intended issuance or sale or exchange (the “Offer”) of the securities being offered (the “Offered Securities”) in a Subsequent Placement, which Offer Notice shall (A) identify and describe the Offered Securities, (B) describe the price and other terms upon which they are to be issued, sold or exchanged, and the number or amount of the Offered Securities to be issued, sold or exchanged, (C) identify the Persons (if known) to which or with which the Offered Securities are to be offered, issued, sold or exchanged and (D) offer to issue and sell to or exchange with such Qualified Holder in accordance with the terms of the Offer such Qualified Holder’s pro rata portion of 30% of the Offered Securities, provided that the number of Offered Securities which such Qualified Holder shall have the right to subscribe for under this Section 5 shall be (x) based on such Qualified Holder’s pro rata portion of the aggregate number of Purchased Shares purchased hereunder by all Qualified Holders (the “Basic Amount”), and (y) with respect to each Qualified Holder that elects to purchase its Basic Amount, any additional portion of the Offered Securities attributable to the Basic Amounts of other Qualified Holders as such Qualified Holder shall indicate it will purchase or acquire should the other Qualified Holders subscribe for less than their Basic Amounts (the “Undersubscription Amount”), which process shall be repeated until each Qualified Holder shall have an opportunity to subscribe for any remaining Undersubscription Amount.
b) To accept an Offer, in whole or in part, such Qualified Holder must deliver a written notice to the Company prior to the end of the fifth (5th) Business Day after such Qualified Holder’s receipt of the Offer Notice (the “Offer Period”), setting forth the portion of such Qualified Holder’s Basic Amount that such Qualified Holder elects to purchase and, if such Qualified Holder shall elect to purchase all of its Basic Amount, the Undersubscription Amount, if any, that such Qualified Holder elects to purchase (in either case, the “Notice of Acceptance”). If the Basic Amounts subscribed for by all Qualified Holders are less than the total of all of the Basic Amounts, then each Qualified Holder who has set forth an Undersubscription Amount in its Notice of Acceptance shall be entitled to purchase, in addition to the Basic Amounts subscribed for, the Undersubscription Amount it has subscribed for; provided, however, if the Undersubscription Amounts subscribed for exceed the difference between the total of all the Basic Amounts and the Basic Amounts subscribed for (the “Available Undersubscription Amount”), each Qualified Holder who has subscribed for any Undersubscription Amount shall be entitled to purchase only that portion of the Available Undersubscription Amount as the Basic Amount of such Qualified Holder bears to the total Basic Amounts of all Qualified Holders that have subscribed for Undersubscription Amounts, subject to rounding by the Company to the extent it deems reasonably necessary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company desires to modify or amend the terms and conditions of the Offer prior to the expiration of the Offer Period, the Company may deliver to each Qualified Holder a new Offer Notice and the Offer Period shall expire on the fifth (5th) Business Day after such Qualified Holder’s receipt of such new Offer Notice.
c) The Company shall have five (5) Business Days from the expiration of the Offer Period above (A) to offer, issue, sell or exchange all or any part of such Offered Securities as to which a Notice of Acceptance has not been given by a Qualified Holder (the “Refused Securities”) pursuant to a definitive agreement(s) (the “Subsequent Placement Agreement”), but only to the offerees described in the Offer Notice (if so described therein) and only upon terms and conditions (including, without limitation, unit prices and interest rates) that are not more favorable to the acquiring Person or Persons or less favorable to the Company than those set forth in the Offer Notice and (B) to publicly announce (x) the execution of such Subsequent Placement Agreement, and (y) either (I) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such Subsequent Placement Agreement or (II) the termination of such Subsequent Placement Agreement, which shall be filed with the SEC on a Report on Form 6-K with such Subsequent Placement Agreement and any documents contemplated therein filed as exhibits thereto.
d) In the event the Company shall propose to sell less than all the Refused Securities (any such sale to be in the manner and on the terms specified in Section 5(c) above), then each Qualified Holder may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, reduce the number or amount of the Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance to an amount that shall be not less than the number or amount of the Offered Securities that such Qualified Holder elected to purchase pursuant to Section 5(b) above multiplied by a fraction, (A) the numerator of which shall be the number or amount of Offered Securities the Company actually proposes to issue, sell or exchange (including Offered Securities to be issued or sold to Qualified Holders pursuant to this Section 5 prior to such reduction) and (B) the denominator of which shall be the original amount of the Offered Securities. In the event that any Qualified Holder so elects to reduce the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, the Company may not issue, sell or exchange more than the reduced number or amount of the Offered Securities unless and until such securities have again been offered to the Qualified Holders in accordance with Section 5(a) above.
e) Upon the closing of the issuance, sale or exchange of all or less than all of the Refused Securities, such Qualified Holder shall acquire from the Company, and the Company shall issue to such Qualified Holder, the number or amount of Offered Securities specified in its Notice of Acceptance, as reduced pursuant to Section 5(d) above if such Qualified Holder has so elected, upon the terms and conditions specified in the Offer. The purchase by such Qualified Holder of any Offered Securities is subject in all cases to the preparation, execution and delivery by the Company and such Qualified Holder of a separate purchase agreement relating to such Offered Securities reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to such Qualified Holder and its counsel.
f) Any Offered Securities not acquired by a Qualified Holder or other Persons in accordance with this Section 5 may not be issued, sold or exchanged until they are again offered to such Qualified Holder under the procedures specified in this Agreement.
g) The Company and each Qualified Holder agree that if any Qualified Holder elects to participate in the Offer, neither the Subsequent Placement Agreement with respect to such Offer nor any other transaction documents related thereto (collectively, the “Subsequent Placement Documents”) shall include any term or provision whereby such Qualified Holder shall be required to agree to any restrictions on trading as to any securities of the Company or be required to consent to any amendment to or termination of, or grant any waiver, release or the like under or in connection with, any agreement previously entered into with the Company or any instrument received from the Company.
h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5 and unless otherwise agreed to by such Qualified Holder, the Company shall either confirm in writing to such Qualified Holder that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Placement has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the Offered Securities, in either case, in such a manner such that such Qualified Holder will not be in possession of any material, non-public information, by the fifth (5th) Business Day following delivery of the Offer Notice. If by such fifth (5th) Business Day, no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Offered Securities has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by such Qualified Holder, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and such Qualified Holder shall not be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Should the Company decide to pursue such transaction with respect to the Offered Securities, the Company shall provide such Qualified Holder with another Offer Notice and such Qualified Holder will again have the right of participation set forth in this Section 5. The Company shall not be permitted to deliver more than one such Offer Notice to such Qualified Holder in any sixty (60) day period, except as expressly contemplated by the last sentence of Section 5(b).
i) The restrictions contained in this Section 5 shall not apply in connection with the issuance of any Exempt Issuance. The Company shall not circumvent the provisions of this Section 5 by providing terms or conditions to one Qualified Holder that are not provided to all Qualified Holders.
Long-Term Incentive Awards The Executive shall participate in any long-term incentive awards offered to senior executives of the Company, as determined by the Compensation Committee.
Contribution Rights In order to provide for just and equitable contribution under the Act in any case in which: (i) any person entitled to indemnification under this Section 5 makes a claim for indemnification pursuant hereto but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact that this Section 5 provides for indemnification in such case; or (ii) contribution under the Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise may be required on the part of any such person in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 5, then, and in each such case, the Company and the Underwriters shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by said indemnity agreement incurred by the Company and the Underwriters, as incurred, in such proportions that the Underwriters are responsible for that portion represented by the percentage that the underwriting discount appearing on the cover page of the Prospectus bears to the initial offering price appearing thereon and the Company is responsible for the balance; provided, that, no person guilty of a fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.3.1, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Public Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay in respect of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses. For purposes of this Section, each director, officer and employee of an Underwriter or the Company, as applicable, and each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter or the Company, as applicable, within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Underwriters or the Company, as applicable.
Long-Term Incentive Award During the Term, Executive shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s long-term incentive plan, on terms and conditions as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion taking into account Company and individual performance objectives.
