All Common Shares so issuable shall, when issued, be duly and validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable and free from all Taxes, liens, security interests, and other charges and encumbrances, other than restrictions under applicable state and federal securities laws. The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to assure that all such Common Shares may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or governmental regulation.
5.7 Additional Issuance. If, at any time either Warrant is outstanding (before or during the period it is exercisable), the exercise price of either Warrant shall have been reduced pursuant to section 9 of either Warrant (but excluding sections 9(c) and 9(d)), the Company shall, immediately after such adjustment to the exercise price, issue to the Purchaser, for no additional consideration, a number of additional Common Shares calculated so that:
(a) |
the sum of the number of Common Shares issued upon conversion of the Note and that are then beneficially owned by the Purchaser, its members, and their affiliates and associates, plus |
(b) |
the number of Common Shares required to be issued pursuant to this section 5.7, equals |
(c) |
the product of: |
(i) |
the number of Common Shares issued upon conversion of the Note and that are then beneficially owned by the Purchaser, its members, and their affiliates and associates, and |
(ii) |
a fraction determined by dividing (A) the exercise price of the respective Warrant on the date of the Closing, by (B) the exercise price immediately prior to the issuance pursuant to this section 5.7. |
For purposes of determining the number of Common Shares issued upon conversion of the Note and that are beneficially owned at a particular time by the Purchaser, its members, or their affiliates or associates, if, from time to time, the Purchaser, its members, or their affiliates or associates sell or otherwise dispose of any Common Shares (whether or not issued upon conversion of the Note), they shall be deemed to have sold the Common Shares in the order in which they acquired them.
5.8 Information Rights and Annual Audit.
(a) As long as the Note is outstanding or the Purchaser, its members, and their affiliates and associates own beneficially 5% or more of the outstanding Common Shares, the Purchaser shall be entitled to (i) receive, within 90 days of the Company’s financial year end, audited annual financial statements (audited by a regionally recognized accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser, or by a nationally recognized accounting firm), and receive within 45 days of the end of each fiscal quarter, unaudited quarterly financial statements, (ii) receive all information made available to shareholders of the Company at the same time such materials are distributed to the shareholders, (iii) meet on a quarterly basis with members of senior management, (iv) receive copies of management reports, and (v) have reasonable access to the Company’s outside auditors.

The Company shall notify the Purchaser at least 10 business days prior to making any expenditure not contemplated by the applicable annual budget (including the budget included in schedule 5.3(b)).

5.9 Preemptive Rights. The Company shall not issue any securities in any one offering or a series of related offerings, except in accordance with the following procedures:
(a) The Company shall deliver to the Purchaser a written notice (an “Offer Notice”), which shall (i) state the Company’s intention to issue securities to one or more persons or entities, the amount and type of securities to be issued (the “Issuance Stock”), the purchase price therefor, and a summary of the other material terms of the proposed issuance, and (ii) offer the Purchaser the option to acquire all or any part of its Preemptive Percentage (as defined in section 9.1) of the Issuance Stock (the “Offer”). The Offer shall remain open and irrevocable for the periods set forth below (and, to the extent the Offer is accepted during such periods, until the consummation of the issuance contemplated by the Offer). The Purchaser shall have the right and option, for a period of 20 business days after delivery of the Offer Notice (the “Acceptance Period”), to accept all or any part of its Preemptive Percentage of the Issuance Stock at the purchase price and on the terms stated in the Offer Notice. Such acceptance shall be made by delivering a written notice (the “Acceptance Notice”) to the Company by the Purchaser within the Acceptance Period specifying the number of shares of the Issuance Stock the Purchaser will purchase (the “Accepted Shares”).
(b) If effective acceptance shall not be received pursuant to section 5.9(a) with respect to the Issuance Stock offered for sale pursuant to the Offer Notice, the Company may issue all or any portion of such Issuance Stock so offered for sale and not so accepted, at the same price, and on terms not more favorable to the purchaser thereof than the terms stated in the Offer Notice, at any time within 120 days after the expiration of the Acceptance Period (the “Issuance Period”). In the event all the Issuance Stock is not so issued by the Company during the Issuance Period, the right of the Company to issue such unsold Issuance Stock shall expire and the obligations of the Company under this section 5.9 shall be reinstated and such securities shall not be offered unless first re-offered to the Purchaser in accordance with sections 5.9(a) and 5.9(b).
(c) All issuances of Issuance Stock to the Purchaser subject to any Offer Notice shall be consummated on a business day specified by notice given by the Purchaser to the Company during the Acceptance Period, which shall be prior to the expiration of the Issuance Period, or at such other time and place as the Company and the Purchaser may agree. The delivery of certificates or other instruments evidencing such Issuance Stock shall be made by the Company on such date against payment of the purchase price for such Issuance Stock.
(d) The requirements of section 5.9(a) shall not apply to any grant, issue or sale by the Company of securities issued in connection with any stock split or stock dividend, any employee stock option plan (other than one in which Xxx Xxxxxxxxx is entitled to participate), or pursuant to the Transaction Agreements.
