Transfer of the Shares Prior to the termination of this ---------------------- Agreement, except as otherwise provided herein, the Shareholder shall not: (i) transfer (which term shall include, without limitation, for the purposes of this Agreement, any sale, gift, pledge or other disposition), or consent to any transfer of, any or all of the Shares; (ii) enter into any contract, option or other agreement or understanding with respect to any transfer of any or all of the Shares or any interest therein; (iii) grant any proxy, power-of-attorney or other authorization or consent in or with respect to the Shares; (iv) deposit the Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to the Shares, or (v) take any other action that would in any way restrict, limit or interfere with the performance of such Shareholder's obligations hereunder or the transactions contemplated hereby.
Transfer of the Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be restricted in the same manner and to the same extent as the Warrant, and the certificates representing such Warrant Shares shall bear substantially the following legend, until such Warrant Shares have been registered under the Act or may be removed as otherwise permitted under the Act: "THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAW AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED UNTIL (i) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR SUCH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS SHALL HAVE BECOME EFFECTIVE WITH REGARD THERETO, OR (ii) IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT OR SUCH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH PROPOSED TRANSFER."
Transfer of the Certificates (a) A Certificateholder may assign, convey or otherwise transfer all or any of its right, title and interest in the related Certificate, subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 3.5 and this Section 3.7. By accepting and holding a Certificate (or any interest therein), the holder thereof (and, if the holder is a Plan, its fiduciary) shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that it is not acquiring the Certificates (or any interest therein) on behalf of or with any assets of, a Benefit Plan or Plan that is subject to Similar Law. Subject to the transfer restrictions contained herein and in the Certificate, each Certificateholder may transfer all or any portion of the Percentage Interest evidenced by such Certificate upon delivery to the Certificate Registrar of the documents required by Section 3.5 and this Section 3.7 and, in the case of a Definitive Certificate, surrender of such Definitive Certificate to the Certificate Registrar. Such transfer may be made by a registered Certificateholder in person or by his attorney duly authorized in writing upon (i) in the case of a Definitive Certificate, surrender of such Certificate to the Certificate Registrar accompanied by (x) a written instrument of transfer in the form of the “Assignment” attached to the Form of Certificate attached hereto as Exhibit A and with such signature guarantees and evidence of authority of the Persons signing the instrument of transfer as the Certificate Registrar may reasonably require and (y) an executed direction letter regarding registration of such transfer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, and (ii) delivery of the documents required by clause (c) hereof and such other documentation as may be required by the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee to comply with Applicable Law (as defined in Section 7.8). No transfer will be effectuated hereunder by the Certificate Registrar or the Owner Trustee unless each of the Certificate Registrar and the Owner Trustee has received the transfer documentation required by it hereunder. Promptly upon the receipt of such documents and, in the case of a Definitive Certificate, receipt by the Certificate Registrar of the transferor’s Certificate, the Certificate Registrar shall record the name of such transferee as a Certificateholder and its Percentage Interest in the Certificate Register and, in the case of a Definitive Certificate, the Owner Trustee shall execute, and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, to such Certificateholder a Certificate evidencing such Percentage Interest. As a condition precedent to any registration of transfer under this Section 3.7, the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover the payment of any tax or taxes or other governmental charges required to be paid in connection with such transfer. In the event a transferor transfers only a portion of its Percentage Interest, the Owner Trustee shall execute, and the Certificate Registrar shall register, authenticate and deliver to such transferor, a new Certificate evidencing such transferor’s new Percentage Interest. Subsequent to a transfer and upon the issuance of a new Definitive Certificate or Definitive Certificates, the Certificate Registrar shall cancel and destroy the Definitive Certificate surrendered to it in connection with such transfer. Unless otherwise provided under applicable law, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Indenture Trustee shall treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the sole owner of the beneficial interest in the Issuer evidenced by such Certificate, without regard to any notice to the contrary.
Tender of the Shares (a) Stockholder hereby agrees that, unless the Offer is earlier terminated or withdrawn by Merger Sub, it shall duly tender (and deliver any certificates evidencing) the Shares beneficially held by it, or cause its Shares to be duly tendered, into the Offer promptly following, and in any event no later than the tenth (10th) business day following Stockholder’s receipt of the Offer Documents, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Offer Documents, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than Permitted Encumbrances); provided that Parent and Merger Sub agree that Stockholder may withdraw its Shares from the Offer at any time following (x) the date that the Offer is terminated, withdrawn or expired without the Shares having been accepted for purchase in the Offer or (y) the Termination Date.
Transfer of Optioned Interests For each exercise of the Equity Interest Purchase Option:
Transfer of the Shares; Other Actions Prior to the termination of this Agreement, except as otherwise provided herein (including pursuant to Section 4 hereof), the Stockholder shall not: (i) tender into any tender or exchange offer or otherwise directly or indirectly transfer, assign, sell, gift-over, pledge or otherwise dispose (whether by sale, distribution or otherwise) of, or consent to any of the foregoing (“Transfer”), any Shares or any right or interest therein; (ii) enter into any Contract, option or other arrangement or undertaking with respect to any Transfer of Shares or any other securities of the Company (other than an agreement with the Company whereby all Company Stock Options shall be terminated at the Effective Time or other agreements pursuant to Section 3.07 of the Merger Agreement), or offer to do or consent to any of the foregoing; (iii) grant any proxy or power-of-attorney with respect to any of the Shares in contravention of the obligations of the Stockholder hereunder or the transactions contemplated hereby; (iv) deposit any of the Shares into a voting trust, or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to any of the Shares in contravention of the obligations of the Stockholder hereunder or the transactions contemplated hereby; or (v) take any other action that would restrict, limit or interfere in any material respect with the performance of the Stockholder’s obligations hereunder or the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the preceding sentence shall not prohibit a Transfer of Shares by the Stockholder: (1) to any member of Stockholder’s immediate family, (2) to a trust established for the benefit of Stockholder and/or for the benefit of one or more members of Stockholder’s immediate family, or (3) upon the death of the Stockholder, provided that any Transfer permitted pursuant to (1) to (3) above shall be permitted only if, as a precondition to such transfer, the transferee of such Shares agrees in writing with Parent to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement (a “Permitted Transfer”). Any attempted Transfer of any Shares or any interest therein in violation of this Section 5 shall be null and void ab initio.
Transfer of Shares Shares shall be transferable on the records of the Trust only by the record holder thereof or by its agent thereto duly authorized in writing, upon delivery to the Trustees or a transfer agent of the Trust of a duly executed instrument of transfer, together with such evidence of the genuineness of each such execution and authorization and of other matters as may reasonably be required. Upon such delivery the transfer shall be recorded on the applicable register of the Trust. Until such record is made, the Shareholder of record shall be deemed to be the holder of such Shares for all purposes hereof and neither the Trustees nor any transfer agent or registrar nor any officer, employee or agent of the Trust shall be affected by any notice of the proposed transfer. Any person becoming entitled to any Shares in consequence of the death, bankruptcy, or incompetence of any Shareholder, or otherwise by operation of law, shall be recorded on the applicable register of Shares as the holder of such Shares upon production of the proper evidence thereof to the Trustees or a transfer agent of the Trust, but until such record is made, the Shareholder of record shall be deemed to be the holder of such for all purposes hereof, and neither the Trustees nor any transfer agent or registrar nor any officer or agent of the Trust shall be affected by any notice of such death, bankruptcy or incompetence, or other operation of law.
Restriction on Transfer of Option Shares Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the Optionee hereby agrees that it shall not sell, transfer by any means or otherwise dispose of the Option Shares acquired by it without registration under the 1933 Act, or in the event that they are not so registered, unless (i) an exemption from the 1933 Act registration requirements is available thereunder, and (ii) the Optionee has furnished the Company with notice of such proposed transfer and the Company’s legal counsel, in its reasonable opinion, shall deem such proposed transfer to be so exempt.
Transferred Shares A Co-Sale Holder shall effect its participation in the co-sale by promptly delivering to the Selling Shareholder for transfer to the prospective purchaser instrument(s) of transfer executed by such Co-Sale Holder and one or more certificates, properly endorsed for transfer, which represent:
Transfer of Preferred Shares Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, Treasury shall be permitted to transfer, sell, assign or otherwise dispose of (“Transfer”) all or a portion of the Preferred Shares at any time, and the Company shall take all steps as may be reasonably requested by Treasury to facilitate the Transfer of the Preferred Shares, including without limitation, as set forth in Section 4.4, provided that Treasury shall not Transfer any Preferred Shares if such transfer would require the Company to be subject to the periodic reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and the Company was not already subject to such requirements. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company shall provide reasonable cooperation to facilitate any Transfers of the Preferred Shares, including, as is reasonable under the circumstances, by furnishing such information concerning the Company and its business as a proposed transferee may reasonably request and making management of the Company reasonably available to respond to questions of a proposed transferee in accordance with customary practice, subject in all cases to the proposed transferee agreeing to a customary confidentiality agreement.
