the Registrable Securities, then the Company shall as soon as practicable, and
in any event within sixty (60) days after the date of receipt of such request,
file a Form S-1 registration Statement (or such other applicable form) under the
Securities Act covering all Registrable Securities that the Purchaser requested
to be registered as specified in such notice, and including any other securities
of the Company that the Company deems proper to include in such registration, in
each case subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 6.2 and
6.4.
(b) The
Company shall be permitted to register other Common Stock in any registration
contemplated by 6.2(a) provided, however, that subject to the last sentence of
Section 8.4 below, if the managing underwriter advises the Company in writing
that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be
underwritten, the Purchaser's Registrable Securities shall be subject to
customary underwriter cutbacks applicable to all holders of securities subject
to registration in such offering; provided further that such cutbacks shall
apply to the Purchaser and other participants in such offering on a pro rata
basis. The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to
effect, any registration pursuant to this Section 6.2(i) during the period that
is sixty (60) days before the Company's good faith estimate of the date of
filing of, and ending on date that is one hundred eighty (180) days after the
effective date of, a Company-initiated registration, provided, that the Company is actively
employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such registration
statement to become effective. The Company shall not be required to effect more
than two (2) registrations pursuant to this Section 6.2. The
Company shall not be required to effect any registration statement demanded by
Purchaser under this Section 6.2 if any registration statement demanded by
Purchaser was effective within the twelve (12) months prior to the Company's
receipt of the demand for registration under this Section 6.2, unless the
Purchaser shall bear all cost and expenses of such registration
statement.
6.3
S-3
Registration; Piggyback
Registration. The Purchaser shall have the right to request the Company
to register Registrable Securities on a registration statement Form S-3 at any
time that the Company is eligible to use a Form S-3 under applicable United
State securities law. If the Company at any time proposes to register any of its
securities (other than (i) in a demand registration under Section 6.2, (ii) in a
registration relating solely to employee benefit plans; (iii) in a registration
relating solely to a Rule 145 transaction (such as a registered stock merger
transaction); or (iv) in a registration relating to a corporate reorganization
or other transaction on Form S-4, or in each case a foreign equivalent thereof)
under the Securities Act, it shall give notice to the Purchaser of such intention.
Upon the written request of the Purchaser given to the Company within
twenty (20) days after receipt of any such notice, the Company shall include in
such registration all of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered
in such request. The Company will cause the managing underwriter or
underwriters, if any, of any proposed registration of securities of the Company
through underwriters in such offering to permit the Purchaser, if holding
Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration in the
Shareholder's notice, to include in the registration for such offering all such
requested Registrable Securities on the same terms and conditions as any
securities of the Company included therein: provided, that the Purchaser shall
have given customary representations and warranties and indemnifications in
connection therewith. Subject to the last sentence of Section 8.4 below, if the
managing underwriter advises the Company in writing that marketing factors
require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the Purchaser's
Registrable Securities shall be subject to customary underwriter cutbacks
applicable to all holders of securities subject to registration in such
offering; provided, that such cutbacks shall
apply to the Purchaser and other participants in such offering on a pro rata
basis.
6.4
Blackout Periods. Notwithstanding the foregoing
obligations in Section 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3, if the Company furnishes to the
Purchaser a certificate signed by the Company's chief executive officer stating
that in the good faith judgment of the Company's Board of Directors it would be
materially detrimental to the Company to maintain the effectiveness of such
Registration Statement (or, if no Registration Statement has yet been filed or
become effective, to file such a Registration Statement or cause it to become
effective) because such action would (i) require the public disclosure of
material non-public information concerning any transaction or negotiations
involving the Company or any of its affiliates that would interfere with such
transaction or negotiations, (ii) otherwise require premature disclosure of
information, in either case that would be significantly disadvantageous or (iii)
render the Company unable to comply with requirements under the Securities Act,
the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 and/or the securities laws of Israel or
the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (a “Disadvantageous
Condition”), then the Company shall have the right to defer taking action
with respect to any filing or cause such Registration Statement or other filing
to become unavailable for use, in each case for such period as a Disadvantageous
Condition shall exist; provided, that the Company shall not
exercise such rights for a period of more than sixty (60) consecutive days from
the date of delivery of such notice to the Purchaser, and in any event when
aggregated with any other Disadvantageous Condition not more than an aggregate
of one hundred (100) days in any 365-day period. If the Company exercises such
right, it will provide written notice thereof to the Purchaser, and upon the
receipt of any such notice, the Purchaser shall forthwith discontinue use of the
prospectus contained in such registration statement as provided in this Section
6 and otherwise act as instructed in such notice. If any Disadvantageous
Condition shall cease to exist, the Company shall promptly notify the Purchaser
to such effect.
6.5
Definitions. As
used in this Agreement,
(a)
“Registrable
Securities” shall mean the Issued Shares and any Common Stock
issued or issuable with respect to any Issued Shares, including by way of
conversion, exercise, stock split or stock dividend, in connection with a
recapitalization or merger, consolidation or other reorganization, or pursuant
to a distribution; provided that any such Registrable
Securities shall cease to be considered Registrable Securities if and when (i) a
registration statement with respect to the disposition of such securities shall
have become effective under the Securities Act and such securities shall have
been disposed of pursuant to such effective registration statement, (ii) such
securities shall have been sold under circumstances in which all of the
applicable conditions of Rule 144 (or any similar provisions then in force) are
met, (iii) such securities may be sold pursuant to Rule I44(k) or otherwise in
the public market without being registered pursuant to the Securities Act, or
(iv) such securities shall have ceased to be outstanding, provided, further, that any such
securities that have ceased to be Registrable Securities pursuant any of the
foregoing clauses cannot thereafter become Registrable Securities and securities
that are issued or distributed following the date of such disposition or sale by
way of dividends or otherwise in respect of such securities that has ceased to
be Registrable Securities shall not be Registrable Securities.
(b)
“Damages” shall
mean any losses, damages, claims, liabilities, joint or several, costs and
expenses (including any amounts paid in any settlement effected with the
Company's consent) to which a party hereto or its underwriter or controlling
person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, the Israeli Securities Law, 1968, as amended, or other United States
federal or state law or foreign securities laws, insofar as such losses,
damages, claims, liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof),
costs or expenses arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration
statement or included in the prospectus, as amended or supplemented, or (ii) the
omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances in which they are made, not misleading.
6.6 Purchaser to
Furnish Information. The
Company may require the Purchaser to furnish to the Company a certified
statement as to the number of shares of Common Stock that it beneficially owns
and, if required by the SEC, the person thereof that has voting and dispositive
control over such Common Stock. It shall be a condition precedent of the Company
to take any action pursuant to this Section 6 with respect to the Registrable
Securities of the Purchaser, that the Purchaser shall furnish to the Company
such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it, and
the intended method of disposition of such securities as is reasonably required
to effect the registration of the Purchaser's Registrable
Securities.
6.7 Registration Procedures.
In connection with the
Company's registration obligations hereunder, the Company shall:
(a)
Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such
Registrable Securities and use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such
registration statement to become effective, and keep such registration statement
(or in the case of Section 6.1, the Registration Statement) effective for up to
forty eight (48) months after the applicable effective date or, if earlier,
until the Purchaser has completed the distribution related
thereto.
(b) Not
less than five (5) business days prior to the filing of the Registration
Statement or any related prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, the
Company shall furnish to the Purchaser copies of all such documents proposed to
be filed. The Company shall not file in the Registration Statement or any such
prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto information to which the
Purchaser shall reasonably object in good faith, provided that
such objection by the Purchaser is based solely on information provided in
writing to the Company by the Purchaser relating to information contained
therein regarding the Purchaser, and provided, the Company is notified of
such objection in writing no later than three (3) business days after the
Purchaser has been so furnished copies of such documents. The Purchaser shall
within five (5) business days after receipt of the request therefor by the
Company provide revised information which the Company reasonably requests for
purposes of compliance with the rules and regulations governing the Registration
Statement and the exhibits and documents in connection therewith.
(c) Prepare
and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such Registration
Statement, and the prospectus used in connection with such registration
statement, as may be necessary to comply with the Securities Act in order to
enable the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration
Statement.
(d) Furnish
to the Purchaser such number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary
prospectus, as required by the Securities Act, and such other documents as the
Purchaser may reasonably request in order to facility its disposition of the
Registrable Securities.
(e) Use
its commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities
covered by such Registration Statement under such blue-sky laws in the United
States as shall be necessary for compliance by the Purchaser with such laws;
provided, that the Company shall not
be required to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of
process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is already
subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the
Securities Act.
(f) Notify
the Purchaser, promptly after the Company receives notice thereof, of the time
when a Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC, when a
supplement to any prospectus forming a party of such Registration Statement has
been filed, and when there is any request by the SEC that the Company amend or
supplement such Registration Statement or prospectus.
(g) Provide
a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered
pursuant to this Agreement and provide a CUSIP number for all such Registrable
Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such
registration.
7. Indemnification
relating to Registration. In
the event of any registered offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to
Section 6 of this Agreement:
(a) The
Company will indemnity and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, the Purchaser, any underwriter for the Purchaser, and each person, if any,
who controls the Purchaser, from and against any and all Damages, and the
Company will reimburse the Purchaser, such underwriter and each such controlling
person of the Purchaser, promptly upon demand, for any reasonable legal or any
other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or
defending against such loss, claim, Damages, liability, action or proceeding;
provided, however, that the Company
will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, damage,
liability, cost or expense arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission so made in conformity
with information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Purchaser, such
underwriter or such controlling persons expressly for use in connection with
such registration; provided, that this indemnity shall
not be deemed to relieve any underwriter of any of its due diligence
obligations; and provided, further, that the indemnity agreement
contained in this subsection 7(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement
of any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action if such settlement is
effected without the consent of the Company, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld.
(b)
The Purchaser will indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, the Company, any underwriter for the Company, and each person, if any,
who controls the Company, from and against any and all Damages, and the
Purchaser will reimburse the Company, any underwriter and each such controlling
person of the Company, promptly upon demand, for any reasonable legal or other
expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating, preparing to defend
or defending against such loss, claim, Damages, liability, action or proceeding;
in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such loss, claim,
Damages, liability, action or proceeding arise out or are based upon actions or
omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
furnished by or on behalf of the Purchaser expressly for use in connection with
such registration; provided, that this indemnity shall
not be deemed to relieve any underwriter of any of its due diligence
obligations; and provided, further, that the indemnity
agreement contained in this subsection 7(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in
settlement of any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action if such
settlement is effected without the consent of the Purchaser, as the case may be,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In no event shall the
liability of a Purchaser exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by
such Purchaser, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by the
Purchaser.
(c)
The foregoing indemnity agreement in Section 7(a) and (b) is subject to the
condition that, insofar as it relates to any such untrue statement (or alleged
untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) made in the preliminary
prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the amended prospectus at the time the
registration statement becomes effective or in the final prospectus, such
indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of an indemnified party
hereunder if a copy of the final prospectus was not furnished to the person or
entity asserting the loss, liability, claim or damage at or prior to the time
such furnishing is required by the Securities Act.
(d)
Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party pursuant to the provisions of
Sections 7(a) or 7(b) of notice of the commencement of any action involving the
subject matter of the foregoing indemnity provisions, such indemnified party
will, if a claim thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party pursuant
to the provisions of said 7(a) or 7(b), promptly notify the indemnifying party
of the commencement thereof; but the omission to notify the indemnifying party
will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified
party otherwise than hereunder. In case such action is brought against any
indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof, the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to
the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly
notified, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to
such indemnified party; provided, however, that if the
defendants in any action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying
party and there is a conflict of interests which would prevent counsel for the
indemnifying party from also representing the indemnified party, the indemnified
party or parties shall have the right to select one separate counsel to
participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or
parties. After notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of
its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not
be liable to such indemnified party pursuant to the provisions of said Sections
7(a) or 7(b) for any legal or other expense subsequently incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof, unless (i) the
indemnified party shall have employed counsel in accordance with the provision
of the preceding sentence, (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the
indemnified party within a reasonable time after the notice of the commencement
of the action and within fifteen (15) days after written notice of the
indemnified party’s intention to employ separate counsel pursuant to the
previous sentence, or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized the employment
of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party.
No indemnifying party will consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any
settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by
the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all
liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
(e)
If recovery is not available under the foregoing indemnification provisions, for
any reason other than as specified therein, the parties entitled to
indemnification by the terms thereof shall be entitled to contribution to
liabilities and expenses as more fully set forth in an underwriting agreement to
be executed in connection with such registration. In determining the amount of
contribution to which the respective parties are entitled, there shall be
considered the parties’ relative knowledge and access to information concerning
the matter with respect to which the claim was asserted, the opportunity to
correct and prevent any statement or omission, and any other equitable
considerations appropriate under the circumstances.
8. Anti Dilution
and Most Favored Nation
Protection
8.1
Adjustment due to Future Issuance of Securities. Until such time in which an
aggregate amount of US$ 15,000,000 has been invested in the Company (excluding
the Excluded Capital (as defined below)), in any event that the Company issues
any additional securities to Purchaser or to any third party, save for Excluded
Issuances (as defined below), either at a purchase price, conversion price or
exercise price per share less than any of the purchase price, conversion price
or exercise price per share paid or payable for an Issued Share, the Purchaser
will benefit from a “full ratchet” anti-dilution protection, such that the price
paid or payable in consideration for such Issued Share shall be reduced
retroactively to the Closing Date to the lowest of the purchase price,
conversion price or exercise price per share at which such additional new
securities have been issued and if such price reduction applies for the purchase
price, the Company shall immediately upon issuance of such shares issue to the
Purchaser a number of additional shares of Common Stock that is equal to the
difference between the number of Common Stock issued to the Purchaser before the
relevant anti-dilution adjustment and the number of Common Stock that would have
been issued to the Purchaser at the reduced purchase price per
share.
“Excluded
Capital” means the Purchase Price, the Loan Amount, the aggregate exercise price
of the Warrant, any amounts invested in the Company up to US$ 5,000,000
(including the Share Purchase and the Loan Amount) within 3 months from the
Closing Date, any amount invested by the Purchaser, any amounts received by the
Company not for equity or securities convertible into equity, funds from the OCS
or other governmental funding (including BIRD) and all other types of funded
R&D either for royalties or for other non-equity consideration.
8.2
“Excluded Issuances” shall mean any of the following: (i) securities issued in
the ordinary course of business to directors, officers, employees, or
consultants of the Company pursuant to any stock option or stock incentive plan
reserved for Company officers, directors, employees or consultants and approved
by the Company's Board, and, if applicable, any securities issued upon the
exercise of such securities; (ii) securities issued pursuant to any stock split,
recapitalization, reclassification or payment of any dividend or distribution
with respect to the Company’s issued and outstanding share capital, including
any bonus shares; (iii) securities issued upon the conversion of any issued and
outstanding options or warrants granted as of the date of the Closing; or (iv)
securities issued in connection with an acquisition transaction of another
entity in the field of business of the Company as approved by the Company’s
Board of Directors, which issuances shall not exceed in the aggregate 15% of the
Company’s issued and outstanding share capital as of the date of this Agreement
and provided that the current assets of the acquired entity do not exceed its
current liabilities as reflected in the last audited financial statements of
such entity immediately preceding the acquisition.
8.3
Whenever the purchase price is adjusted pursuant hereto, the Company shall
promptly mail to the Purchaser a notice setting forth the conversion price after
such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such
adjustment.
8.4
Most Favored
Terms. Until such time as an aggregate amount of US$ 15,000,000 has been
invested in the Company (excluding the Excluded Capital), in the event that any
person or entity is issued any type of security including, but not limited to,
any type of debt, warrant or equity securities of the Company under terms more
favorable than those set forth in this Agreement, the Convertible Debenture or
the Warrant (collectively, the “Issued Securities”), then, at the option of the
Purchaser, the Issued Securities shall be construed as containing the more
favorable terms afforded to such third party, as though such terms were
previously provided herein retroactively from the Closing Date. In the event
that the Company issues convertible debentures which are publicly traded, the
Purchaser shall have the right to replace the Convertible Debenture with such
publicly traded convertible debentures in an amount equal to the outstanding
Loan Amount at such time, the Convertible Debenture shall be cancelled and the
provisions of the publicly traded debentures shall apply. For example, if the
Company issues shares of the Company with a higher purchase price per share but
with liquidation preferences rights and/or anti-dilution rights that are
superior to the rights of the Purchased Shares, the Purchased Shares shall be
deemed to include such superior liquidation preference and/or anti-dilution
rights while all other terms of the Purchased Shares will remain unchanged and
in effect. The Company shall immediately (subject to applicable law) notify the
Purchaser in writing on the terms of any issuance of equity of the Company. In
the event that any person or entity is granted by the Company registration
rights (including, but not limited to, preferences in underwriter's cutbacks)
under terms more favorable than Purchaser's rights then in effect, such
favorable rights shall be deemed to have been granted to Purchaser as of the
Closing Dates.
8.5
Any dispute on matters under this Section 8 shall be referred to a resolution by
Giza Singer Even and Kesselmam and Xxxxxxxxx (PWC Israel). In the event of
different determinations by Giza Singer Even and PWC, the dispute shall be
resolved by calculating the average between the values determined by each of
Giza Singer Even and PWC with respect to each parameter of their determination.
The determination of Giza Singer Even and PWC will be exclusive and final. The
non-prevailing party in such dispute shall bear the expenses of Giza Singer Even
and PWC. The Company hereby acknowledges that the Purchaser and its affiliates
retain the services of Giza Singer Even and PWC in the ordinary course of
business for various tasks (including, but not limited to accounting, tax,
financial and fairness opinion, advisory services and the like) and that they
will not be limited from retaining them also in the future. In that respect, the
Company waives any claim it may have against the Purchaser and its affiliates in
connection with a conflict of interest regarding the matters contemplated in
this Section 8.5.
9. Survival of
Representations, Warranties,
etc. The respective representations, warranties, and agreements
made herein by or on behalf of the parties hereto shall remain in full force and
effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the other party
to this Agreement or any officer, director or employee of, or person controlling
or under common control with, such party and will survive delivery of and
payment for the Purchased Shares issuable hereunder; provided that the representations and
warranties made herein shall survive until the third anniversary of the Closing
Date; and provided further, that any such representations,
warranties or agreements that survive for a time expressly provided herein shall
only survive for such period of time.
10. Notices. All notices,
consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted hereunder shall
be in writing and shall be mailed by registered or certified mail, return
receipt requested, postage prepaid or otherwise delivered by hand, messenger,
internationally recognized courier or facsimile transmission, addressed as set
forth below or at such other address as the party shall have furnished to the
other party in writing in accordance with this provision:

11. Miscellaneous
(a) Immediately
following the Closing, the board representative of Purchaser will be added to
the indemnification and insurance arrangements currently existing in the Company
with respect to all members of the Board of Directors.
(b)
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF
ISRAEL, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF.
(c)
This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto, and their respective successors and assigns, and no other person
will have any rights or obligation hereunder. Either Party may freely assign or
transfer the rights granted pursuant to this Agreement. If, as a result of such
assignment by the Purchaser, the Company is required under applicable law to
file any registration statement or prospectus with the US Securities and
Exchange Commission or any stock exchange or other similar institution in any
jurisdiction, that the Company would not be required to file under this
Agreement, the Party that seeks such assignment will cover the Company's
expenses for such filing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Anti Dilution and
Most Favored Nation rights set forth in Section 8 herein shall not be
transferable to any third party.
(d)
This Agreement and the Transaction Documents constitute the full and entire
understanding and agreement between the parties hereto with regard to the
subject matter hereof and supersede all prior oral or written (and all
contemporaneous oral) agreements or understandings with respect to the subject
matter hereof.
(e)
No delay or omission to exercise any right power or remedy accruing to any party
hereto upon any breach or default of the other party hereto under this Agreement
shall impair any such right, power or remedy or such party, nor shall it be
construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence
therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereunder occurring; nor
shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other
breach or default therefore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent
or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party hereto of any
breach or default under this agreement, or any waiver on the part of any party
hereto of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, must be in writing and
shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. AH
remedies, either under this Agreement, or by law or otherwise afforded to any
party, shall be cumulative and not alternative.
(f)
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which may
be executed by less than all of the parties hereto, each of which shall be
enforceable against the parties actually executing such counterparts, and all of
which together shall constitute one instrument.
(g)
If any provision of this Agreement, or its application to any party
hereto, shall be, or be found by an authority of competent jurisdiction to be,
invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, such provision shall be
constructed and applied so as to give effect, to the greatest extent possible,
the original intent of the parties hereto. The invalidity or unenforceability of
any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the other validity
herein, all of which shall remain in full force and effect.
(h) This
Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented only by a written instrument
signed by each of the Purchaser and the Company.
