Registration Rights. | |
2.1 |
Piggyback Registrations. The Corporation shall notify all Holders of Registrable Securities in writing at least twenty (20) days prior to filing any registration statement under the U.S. Securities Act for purposes of effecting a public offering of securities of the Corporation (including, but not limited to, registration statements relating to the Corporation’s initial public offering and secondary offerings of securities of the Corporation, but excluding registration statements relating to any employee benefit plan or a corporate reorganization) and will afford each such Holder an opportunity to include in such registration statement all or any part of the Registrable Securities then held by such Holder. Each Holder desiring to include in any such registration statement all or any part of the Registrable Securities held by such Holder shall, within twenty (20) days after receipt of the above-described notice from the Corporation, notify the Corporation in writing, and in such notice shall inform the Corporation of the number of Registrable Securities such Holder wishes to include in such registration statement. If a Holder decides not to include all of its Registrable Securities in any registration statement thereafter filed by the Corporation, such Holder shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Corporation with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. | |
2.2 |
Underwriting. If a registration statement under which the Corporation gives notice under this Section 2 is for an underwritten offering, then the Corporation shall so advise the Holders of Registrable Securities. In such event, the right of any such Holder’s Registrable Securities to be included in a registration pursuant to this Section 2 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or underwriter(s) selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the managing underwriter(s) determine(s) in good faith that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of securities to be underwritten, then the managing underwriter(s) may exclude securities (including Registrable Securities) from the registration and the underwriting, and the number of securities that may be included in the registration and the underwriting shall be allocated, first, to the Corporation, and second, to each of the Holders requesting inclusion of their Registrable Securities in such registration statement on a pro rata basis according to the ratio of the number of Registrable Securities requested by each Holder to be included in the registration to the total number of securities to be included in the registration. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Corporation and the underwriter, delivered at least ten (10) business days prior to the effective date of the registration statement. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration and the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be included in such registration by each Holder shall be readjusted accordingly. For any Holder which is a partnership or corporation, the partners, retired partners and shareholders of such Holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons shall be deemed to be a single “Holder,” and any pro rata reduction with respect to |
2
such “Holder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of securities carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such “Holder,” as defined in this sentence. | ||
2.3 |
Expenses. All expenses incurred in connection with a registration pursuant to this Section 2, including without limitation registration and qualification fees, printers’ and accounting fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Corporation and the reasonable fees and disbursements of one (1) counsel for the selling Holder or Holders (but excluding underwriters’ discounts and commission and transfer taxes), shall be borne by the Corporation. Each Holder participating in a registration pursuant to this Section 2 shall bear such Holder’s proportionate share (based on the total number of securities sold in such registration other than for the account of the Corporation) of all discounts, commissions, transfer taxes or other amounts payable to underwriters or brokers in connection with such offering. | |
2.4 |
Obligations of the Corporation. The Corporation hereby covenants and agrees that it shall: | |
(a) |
prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective, and, upon the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder, keep such registration statement effective for up to twelve (12) months; | |
(b) |
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 provisions of the U.S. Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement; | |
(c) |
furnish to the Holders such number of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the requirements of the U.S. Securities Act, and such other documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by them that are included in such registration; | |
(d) |
use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders, provided that the Corporation shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions; | |
(e) |
in the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter(s) of such offering (it being understood and agreed that, as a condition to the Corporation’s obligations under this clause (e), each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement); and | |
(f) |
notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the U.S. Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits 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 then existing. | |
2.5 |
Furnish Information. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Corporation to take any action pursuant to this Section 2 that the selling Holders shall furnish to the Corporation such information regarding themselves, the Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required to timely effect the registration of their Registrable Securities. |
3
2.6 |
Delay of Registration. No Holder shall have any right to obtain or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Section 2. | ||
2.7 |
Black-Out Period. Without limiting the other provisions of this Section 2, each Holder agrees that, if so requested by the Corporation upon a good faith determination by the Corporation’s board of directors (the “Board”) that the imposition of a “Suspension Period” is necessary to enable the Corporation to pursue the objectives described in this Section 2.7, not to effect any offer or sale of securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, or otherwise, or engage in any hedging or other transaction intended to reduce or transfer the risk of ownership for any period (not to exceed forty-five (45) days) reasonably deemed necessary (i) by the Corporation or any underwriter in connection with the offering of securities by the Corporation for its own account or (ii) by the Corporation in connection with any proposal or plan by the Corporation to engage in any material financing or material acquisition or disposition by the Corporation or any subsidiary thereof of the securities or substantially all of the assets of any other person (other than in the ordinary course of business), any tender offer or any merger, consolidation, corporate reorganization, strategic partnership arrangement or restructuring or other similar transaction (each, a “Business Combination”) material to the Corporation and its subsidiaries taken as a whole. Any period during which the Corporation fails to keep the Registration Statement effective and usable for resales of securities, or requires pursuant to this Section 2.7 that the Holders not effect sales of securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, is hereafter referred to as a “Suspension Period”. A Suspension Period shall commence on the date set forth in a written notice by the Corporation to the Holders that the Registration Statement is no longer effective or that the prospectus included in the Registration Statement is no longer usable for resales of securities or, in the case of a suspension pursuant to this Section 2.7, and shall end on the date when each Holder of securities covered by the Registration Statement either receives copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 2.4 or is advised in writing by the Corporation that use the prospectus or sales may be resumed. The Corporation may only impose a Suspension Period on the Holders two (2) times during any twelve (12) month period. | ||
2.8 |
Indemnification. | ||
(a) |
By the Corporation. To the extent permitted by law, the Corporation will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the partners, officers and directors of each Holder, and each person, if any, who controls such Holder within the meaning of the U.S. Securities Act or U.S. Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may become subject under the U.S. Securities Act, the U.S. Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively, a “Violation”): | ||
(i) |
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto; | ||
(ii) |
the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; or | ||
(iii) |
any violation or alleged violation by the Corporation of the U.S. Securities Act, the U.S. Exchange Act, any federal or state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the U.S. Securities Act, the U.S. Exchange Act or any federal or state securities law in connection with the offering covered by the Registration Statement. | ||
The Corporation will reimburse each such Holder, partner, officer or director, or controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them, as incurred, in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, |
4
however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 2.8(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Corporation (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Corporation be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such registration by such Holder, partner, officer, director or controlling person of such Holder. | |
(b) |
By Selling Holders. To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Corporation, each of its directors, each of its officers who have signed the Registration Statement, each person, if any, who controls the Corporation within the meaning of the U.S. Securities Act, or any of such other Holder’s partners, directors or officers or any person who controls such Holder within the meaning of the U.S. Securities Act or the U.S. Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which the Corporation or any such director, officer, controlling person or other such Holder, partner or director, officer or controlling person of such other Holder may become subject under the U.S. Securities Act, the U.S. Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Corporation or any such director, officer, controlling person or other Holder, partner, officer, director or controlling person of such other Holder in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection 2.8(b) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided further, that the total amounts payable in indemnity by a Holder under this Section 2.8(b) in respect of any Violation shall not exceed the net proceeds received by such Holder in the registered offering out of which such Violation arises. |
(c) |
Notice. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 2.8 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 2.8, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the parties. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 2.8, but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 2.8. |
(d) |
Defect Eliminated in Final Prospectus. The foregoing indemnity agreements of the Corporation and Holders are subject to the condition that, insofar as they relate to any Violation made in a preliminary prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the amended prospectus on file with the SEC at the time the Registration Statement becomes effective or the amended prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to SEC Rule 424(b) (the “Final Prospectus”), such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any person if a copy of the Final Prospectus (i) was furnished to the indemnified party and (ii) was not furnished to the person asserting the loss, liability, claim or damage at or prior to the time such action is required by the U.S. Securities Act. |
5
(e) |
Contribution. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the U.S. Securities Act in any case in which either (i) any Holder exercising rights under this Agreement, or any controlling person of any such Holder, makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 2.8 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 2.8 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii) contribution under the U.S. Securities Act may be required on the part of any such selling Holder or any such controlling person in circumstances for which indemnification is provided under this Section 2.8; then, and in each such case, the Corporation and such Holder will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion so that such Holder is responsible for the portion represented by the percentage that the public offering price of its Registrable Securities offered by and sold under the Registration Statement bears to the public offering price of all securities offered by and sold under the Registration Statement, and the Corporation and other selling Holders are responsible for the remaining portion; provided, however, that, in any such case, (A) no such Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the public offering price of all such Registrable Securities offered and sold by such Holder pursuant to the Registration Statement and (B) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the U.S. Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. | |
(f) |
Survival. The obligations of the Corporation and Holders under this Section 2.8 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement, and otherwise. | |
2.9 |
“Market Stand-Off” Agreement. | |
(a) |
Each Holder hereby agrees that he, she or it shall not, to the extent requested by the managing underwriter of a Qualified Public Offering in which Securities (as defined below) are sold, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, pledge, contract to sell, transfer the economic risk of ownership in, make any short sale, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of any Securities of the Corporation or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for or any other rights to purchase or acquire Securities, including, without limitation, Securities which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by each Holder in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and Securities which may be issued upon exercise of an option or warrant, or enter into any Hedging Transaction (as defined below) relating to Securities (each of the foregoing referred to as a “Disposition”) for a period of one-hundred-eighty (180) days after the effective date of the registration statement relating to such Qualified Public Offering (the “Lock-Up Period”) unless the managing underwriter otherwise agrees; provided, however, such restrictions shall apply only if all of the Corporation’s executive officers, directors and holders of five percent (5%) or more of the Corporation’s voting Securities (collectively, “Other Restricted Sellers”) enter into similar agreements; provided, further, however, that the undersigned shall be permitted to participate on a pro rata basis in any early release from the Lock-Up Period of any Other Restricted Seller by the managing underwriter. The foregoing restriction is expressly intended to preclude the undersigned from engaging in any Hedging Transaction or other transaction which is designed to or reasonably expected to lead to or result in a Disposition during the Lock- Up Period even if the Securities would be disposed of by someone other than the undersigned. “Hedging Transaction” means any short sale (whether or not against the box) or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to any security (other than a broad-based market basket or index) that includes, relates to or derives any significant part of its value from the Securities. For purposes of this paragraph 2.9(a), “Securities” shall means any equity securities of the Corporation that are, or that are convertible or exercisable directly or indirectly into, voting common shares or non-voting common shares of the Corporation. |
6
(b) |
Each Holder hereby agrees to execute and deliver in a timely manner an agreement in customary form proposed by such managing underwriter confirming the foregoing covenants. | |
(c) |
In order to enforce the foregoing covenants, the Corporation may impose stop transfer instructions with respect to the Securities of the Holder (and the securities of every other person subject to the foregoing restriction) until the end of such period. | |
2.10 |
Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may at any time permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Corporation agrees to: | |
(a) |
make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act, at all times when the Corporation is subject to the reporting requirements of the U.S. Exchange Act; | |
(b) |
use its best efforts to file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Corporation under the U.S. Securities Act and the U.S. Exchange Act when the Corporation is subject to the U.S. Exchange Act; and | |
(c) |
as long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, to furnish to the Holder forthwith upon request a written statement by the Corporation as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Corporation and such other reports and documents of the Corporation as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing a Holder to sell any such securities without registration when the Corporation is subject to the U.S. Exchange Act. | |
2.11 |
Termination of Registration Rights. The registration rights granted pursuant to this Agreement shall terminate as to a Holder on the date on which all of such Holder’s Registrable Securities can be sold under Rule 144 promulgated under the U.S. Securities Act. |
