2. Exercise.
(a) Manner of Exercise. During the Term (or, in respect of a Cashless Major Exercise, the Cashless Major Exercise Period (as defined below)), this Warrant may be Exercised as to all or any lesser number of whole shares of Common Stock covered hereby (the “Warrant Shares” or the “Shares”) by sending to the Company the Exercise Form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1 (the “Exercise Form”) duly completed and executed, and, if applicable, the full Exercise Price (as defined below, which may be satisfied by a Cash Exercise, a Cashless Exercise or a Note Exchange Exercise, as each is defined below) for each share of Common Stock as to which this Warrant is Exercised, at the office of the Company, 2 Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, XX 00000, Attention: Chief Financial Officer; Phone: (000) 000-0000, Email: xxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx, or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate in writing, by overnight mail or electronic mail (any such exercise of the Warrant being hereinafter called an “Exercise” of this Warrant).
(b) Date of Exercise. The “Date of Exercise” of the Warrant shall, in each case, be the date that the Exercise Form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1, completed and executed, is sent by electronic mail to the Company, provided that the Exercise Price is satisfied as soon as practicable thereafter but in no event later than two (2) Business Days following the date of such electronic mail. Alternatively, the Date of Exercise shall be defined as the date the original Exercise Form is received by the Company, if Holder has not previously sent the Exercise Form by electronic mail. Upon delivery of the Exercise Form to the Company by electronic mail or otherwise, Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been Exercised, irrespective of the date such Warrant Shares are credited to Holder’s or its designee’s Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) account or the date of delivery of the certificates evidencing such Warrant Shares, as the case may be; provided, however, that in the event an Exercise Form in respect of a Cashless Major Exercise is delivered prior to the occurrence of the applicable Major Transaction, Holder shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of the shares issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the consummation of such Major Transaction and the Date of Exercise shall in such event be deemed to have occurred on the date of the occurrence of the Major Transaction. Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for
4
cancellation within three (3) Trading Days following the date the final Exercise Form is delivered to the Company. Execution and delivery of an Exercise Form with respect to a partial Exercise shall have the same effect as cancellation of the original Warrant and issuance of a New Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares.
(c) Delivery of Common Stock Upon Exercise. Within the earlier of (x) three (3) Trading Days and (y) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period after any Date of Exercise (but, in the case of a Cash Exercise, within two (2) Business Days following the Company’s receipt of the full Exercise Price, if later) or in the case of a Cashless Default Exercise (as defined in Section 5(b) below), within the period provided in Section 3(c), as applicable (the “Delivery Period”), the Company shall issue and deliver (or cause its transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to issue and deliver) in accordance with the terms hereof to or upon the order of Holder that number of shares of Common Stock (“Exercise Shares”) for the portion of this Warrant exercised as shall be determined in accordance herewith. Upon the Exercise of this Warrant or any part hereof, the Company shall, at its own cost and expense, take all necessary action, including obtaining and delivering an opinion of counsel, to assure that the Transfer Agent shall issue stock certificates in the name of Holder (or its nominee) or such other persons as designated by Holder and in such denominations as Holder shall specify at Exercise, representing the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Exercise. The Company warrants that no instructions other than these instructions have been or will be given to the Transfer Agent and that, unless waived by Holder, this Warrant and the Exercise Shares will be free-trading, and freely transferable, and will not contain or be subject to a legend (or be subject to any stop transfer instruction) restricting the resale or transferability of the Exercise Shares if the Unrestricted Conditions (as defined below) are met.
The Company shall be responsible for paying all present or future stamp, court or documentary, intangible, recording, filing or similar taxes that arise from any payment or issuance made under, from the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of, or otherwise with respect to, this Warrant.
(d) Delivery Failure. In addition to any other remedies which may be available to Holder, in the event that the Company fails for any reason to effect delivery of the Exercise Shares by the end of the Delivery Period (a “Delivery Failure”), Holder will be entitled to revoke all or part of the relevant Exercise by delivery of a notice to such effect to the Company whereupon the Company and Holder shall each be restored to their respective positions immediately prior to the delivery of such notice of revocation, except that the Failure Payments under Section 10(b) shall be payable through the date such notice of revocation is given to the Company.
(e) Legends.
(i) Restrictive Legend. Holder understands that until such time as this Warrant, the Exercise Shares and the Failure Payment Shares (as defined below) have been registered under the Securities Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, this Warrant, the Exercise Shares and the Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, may bear a restrictive legend in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order consistent therewith may be placed against transfer of the certificates for such securities):
5
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER SAID ACT, OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SAID ACT INCLUDING PURSUANT TO SECTION 4(A)(7) OF THE SECURITIES ACT OR RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT OR PURSUANT TO A PRIVATE SALE EFFECTED UNDER APPLICABLE FORMAL OR INFORMAL SEC INTERPRETATION OR GUIDANCE, SUCH AS A SO-CALLED “4[(a)](1) AND A HALF” SALE.” NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.
“THE SALE, TRANSFER OR ASSIGNMENT OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF A CERTAIN REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT DATED AS OF APRIL 3, 2017, AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, AMONG THE COMPANY AND CERTAIN HOLDERS OF ITS OUTSTANDING SECURITIES. COPIES OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED AT NO COST BY WRITTEN REQUEST MADE BY THE HOLDER OF RECORD OF THIS CERTIFICATE TO THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.”
(ii) Removal of Restrictive Legends. This Warrant and the certificates (or electronic book entries, if applicable) evidencing the Exercise Shares and the Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, shall not contain or be subject to any legend restricting the transfer thereof (including the legend set forth above in subsection 2(e)(i)) or be subject to any stop-transfer instructions: (A) while a registration statement (including a Registration Statement, as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) covering the sale or resale of such security is effective under the Securities Act, or (B) following any sale of such Warrant, Exercise Shares and/or Failure Payment Shares pursuant to Rule 144, or (C) if such Warrant, Exercise Shares and/or Failure Payment Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144(b)(1), or (D) if such legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act (including judicial interpretations and pronouncements issued by the staff of the SEC) (collectively, the “Unrestricted Conditions”). The Company shall cause its counsel to issue a legal opinion to the Transfer Agent promptly after the Effective Date, or at such other time as any of the Unrestricted Conditions have been met, if required by the Transfer Agent to effect the issuance of this Warrant, the Exercise Shares or the Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, without a restrictive legend or removal of the legend hereunder. If any of the Unrestricted Conditions are met at the time of issuance of this Warrant, the Exercise Shares or the Failure Payment Shares, then such Warrant, Exercise Shares or Failure Payment Shares, as
6
applicable, shall be issued free of all legends and stop-transfer instructions. The Company agrees that following the Effective Date, or at such time as the Unrestricted Conditions are met or such legend is otherwise no longer required under this Section 2(e), it will, no later than the earlier of (x) three (3) Trading Days and (y) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period following the delivery (the “Unlegended Shares Delivery Deadline”) by Holder to the Company or the Transfer Agent of this Warrant and a certificate representing Exercise Shares and/or Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, issued with a restrictive legend (such third Trading Day, the “Legend Removal Date”), deliver or cause to be delivered to Holder this Warrant and/or a certificate (or electronic transfer) representing such shares that is free from all restrictive and other legends (and stop transfer instructions). For purposes hereof, “Effective Date” shall mean the date that the first Registration Statement that the Company is required to file pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement has been declared effective by the SEC.
(iii) Sale of Unlegended Shares. Holder agrees that the removal of the restrictive legend from this Warrant and any certificates representing securities as set forth in Section 2(e) above is predicated upon the Company’s reliance that Holder will sell this Warrant or any Exercise Shares and/or any Failure Payment Shares, as applicable, pursuant to either the registration requirements of the Securities Act, including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements, or an exemption therefrom, and that if such securities are sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, they will be sold in compliance with the plan of distribution set forth therein.
(f) Cancellation of Warrant. This Warrant shall be canceled upon the full Exercise of this Warrant, and, as soon as practical after the Date of Exercise, Holder shall be entitled to receive Common Stock for the number of shares purchased upon such Exercise of this Warrant, and if this Warrant is not Exercised in full, Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant (containing terms identical to this Warrant) representing any unexercised portion of this Warrant in addition to such Common Stock; provided, however, as set forth in Section 2(b), Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this warrant if the Warrant is not Exercised in full.
(g) Holder of Record. Each person in whose name any Warrant for shares of Common Stock is issued shall, for all purposes, be deemed to be Holder of record of such shares on the Date of Exercise, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Common Stock purchased upon the Exercise of this Warrant. Prior to the exercise of this Warrant, nothing in this Warrant shall be construed as conferring upon Holder any rights as a stockholder of the Company.
(h) Delivery of Electronic Shares. In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon Exercise or legend removal, or representing Failure Payment Shares, upon written request of Holder, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Transfer Agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock issuable upon Exercise to Holder by crediting the account of Holder’s prime broker with DTC through its Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian (DWAC) system. The time periods for delivery and penalties described herein shall apply to the electronic transmittals described herein. Any delivery not effected by electronic transmission shall be effected by delivery of physical certificates.
7
(i) Buy-In. In addition to any other rights or remedies available to Holder hereunder or otherwise at law or in equity, if the Company fails to cause its Transfer Agent to deliver to Holder a certificate or certificates, or electronic shares through DWAC, representing the Exercise Shares pursuant to an Exercise on or before the last day of the Delivery Period (other than a failure caused by any incorrect or incomplete information provided by Holder to the Company hereunder), and if after such date Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or Holder or Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by Holder of the Exercise Shares which Holder was entitled to receive upon such Exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (1) pay in cash to Holder the amount by which (x) Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Exercise Shares that the Company was required to deliver to Holder in connection with the Exercise at issue by (B) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (2) at the option of Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Exercise Shares for which such Exercise was not honored (and refund the Exercise Price therefor, to the extent paid by Holder, and/or reinstate the principal amount of any indebtedness used to satisfy the applicable Exercise Price) or deliver to Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its Exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted Exercise to cover the sale of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay Holder $1,000. Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to Holder in respect of the Buy-In, together with applicable confirmations and other evidence reasonably requested by the Company. Nothing herein shall limit Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon Exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
(j) HSR Submissions. If Holder determines that, in connection with the exercise of this Warrant, it and the Company are required to file Premerger Notification Reports with the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) and the United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) and observe the Waiting Period under the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxxxx Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the related rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “HSR Act”), the Company agrees to (i) cooperate with Holder in Holder’s preparing and making such submission and any responses to inquiries of the FTC and DOJ; (ii) prepare and make any submission required to be filed by the Company under the HSR Act and respond to inquiries of the FTC and DOJ in connection therewith; and (iii) reimburse Holder for the cost of the required filing fee for Holder’s submission under the HSR Act. For the avoidance of doubt, Holder shall bear all of its other costs and expenses in connection with such submission, including any attorneys’ fees associated therewith.
3. Payment of Warrant Exercise Price for Cash Exercise or Cashless Exercise; Cashless Major Exercise and Cashless Default Exercise.
(a) Exercise Price. The exercise price shall initially equal $9.23 per share, subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms hereof (as so adjusted, the “Exercise Price”), including but not limited to Section 5 below.
8
Payment of the Exercise Price may be made by either of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of Holder:
(i) Cash Exercise: Holder may exercise this Warrant in cash, bank or cashier’s check or wire transfer (a “Cash Exercise”);
(ii) Cashless Exercise: In lieu of paying all or any portion of the Exercise Price in cash, Holder, at its option, may exercise this Warrant (in whole or in part) on a cashless basis by making appropriate notation on the applicable Exercise Form, in which event the Company shall issue Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula (a “Cashless Exercise”):
X = Y (A-B)/A
where: X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to Holder.
Y = the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is being Exercised.
A = the Market Price of one (1) share of Common Stock (for purposes of this Section 3(a)(ii), where “Market Price,” as of any date, means the Volume Weighted Average Price (as defined herein) of the Company’s Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period immediately preceding the Date of Exercise or other date in question, as applicable.
B = the Exercise Price.
As used herein, the “Volume Weighted Average Price” for any security as of any date means the volume weighted average sale price on the NasdaqGS as reported by, or based upon data reported by, Bloomberg Financial Markets or an equivalent, reliable reporting service mutually acceptable to and hereafter designated by holders of a majority in interest of the Warrants and the Company (“Bloomberg”) or, if the NasdaqGS is not the principal trading market for such security, the volume weighted average sale price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no volume weighted average sale price is reported for such security, then the last closing trade price of such security as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no last closing trade price is reported for such security by Bloomberg, the average of the bid prices of any market makers for such security that are listed or quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, the OTCQX Market, the OTCQB Market or on the “pink” market of OTC Markets Group Inc. If the Volume Weighted Average Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner provided above, the volume weighted average price shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Company and Holders of a majority in interest of the Warrants being Exercised for which the calculation of the volume weighted average price is required in order to determine the Exercise Price of such Warrants.
(iii) Note Exchange Exercise: In lieu of paying all or any portion of the Exercise Price in cash, Holder, at its option, may exercise this Warrant (in whole or in part) through a reduction of an amount of principal outstanding under any Notes in accordance with Section 2.3(b) of the Facility Agreement, then held by Holder (a “Note Exchange Exercise”)
9
For purposes of Rule 144 and subsection (d)(3)(ii) thereof, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the Common Stock issuable upon Exercise of this Warrant in a Cashless Exercise transaction or a Note Exchange Exercise transaction shall be deemed to have been acquired at the time this Warrant was issued (in the case of a Cashless Exercise) or at the time the applicable Note was issued (in the case of a Note Exchange Exercise). Moreover, it is intended, understood and acknowledged that the holding period for the Common Stock issuable upon Exercise of this Warrant in a Cashless Exercise transaction or a Note Exchange Exercise transaction shall be deemed to have commenced on the date this Warrant was issued (in the case of a Cashless Exercise) or on the date the applicable Note was issued (in the case of a Note Exchange Exercise). As provided in Section 2(b), Holder shall only be required to physically surrender this Warrant in the event that Holder is exercising this Warrant in full.
(b) Cashless Major Exercise. To the extent Holder shall exercise this Warrant as a Cashless Major Exercise pursuant to Section 5(b)(i) and 5(b)(iii) below, Holder shall send to the Company (in any manner permitted under Section 2(a)) the Exercise Form indicating that Holder is exercising this Warrant (or any portion thereof) pursuant to a Cashless Major Exercise, in which event the Company shall issue a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Black-Scholes Value of the Warrant (or such applicable portion being exercised) divided by the closing price of the Common Stock on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then traded on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the applicable Major Transaction is consummated, or, if in respect of a Cashless Major Exercise made after the date of consummation of the applicable Major Transaction, on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the exercise form in respect of such Cashless Major Exercise is delivered. As provided in Section 2(b), Holder shall only be required to physically surrender this Warrant in the event that Holder is exercising this Warrant in full. Holder shall be permitted to make successive Cashless Major Exercises and send successive Exercise Forms in respect of a Cashless Major Exercise from time to time at any time during the Cashless Major Exercise Period.
(c) Cashless Default Exercise. To the extent Holder exercises this Warrant as a Cashless Default Exercise pursuant to Section 11(b)(i) below, Holder shall send to the Company (in any manner permitted under Section 2(a)) the Exercise Form indicating that Holder is exercising this Warrant pursuant to a Cashless Default Exercise, in which event the Company shall issue to Holder, within five (5) Trading Days of the applicable Default Notice, a number of shares of Common Stock (which shares shall be valued at the closing price of the Common Stock on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then traded on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the Exercise Form in respect of such Cashless Default Exercise is delivered) equal to the Black-Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant (or such portion thereof subject to such exercise) as of the date of such Default Notice (or in the case of an Event of Default referred to in Section 11(a)(vi), on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date the dividend or distribution is declared or, if not first declared, is paid). As provided in Section 2(b), the Holder shall be permitted to make successive Cashless Default Exercises and send successive Exercise Forms in respect of a Cashless Default Exercise, from time to time at any time from and after the date of the applicable Default Notice through the Term of this Warrant.
10
(d) Dispute Resolution. In the case of a dispute as to the determination of the closing price or the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Company’s Common Stock or the arithmetic calculation of the Exercise Price, Market Price or the Successor Major Transaction Consideration, or the number of shares issuable upon a Cashless Major Exercise, the Company shall submit the disputed determinations or arithmetic calculations via electronic mail within two (2) Business Days of receipt, or deemed receipt, of the Exercise Form or Major Transaction Early Termination Notice, or other event giving rise to such dispute, as the case may be, to Holder. If Holder and the Company are unable to agree upon such determination or calculation within two (2) Business Days of such disputed determination or arithmetic calculation being submitted to Holder, then the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days submit via electronic mail (i) the disputed determination of the closing price or the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Company’s Common Stock to an independent, reputable investment bank selected by the Company and approved by Holder, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, or (ii) the disputed arithmetic calculation of the Exercise Price, Market Price, any Successor Major Transaction Consideration or number of shares issuable upon a Cashless Major Exercise to the Company’s independent, outside registered public accountants. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the investment bank or the accountants, as the case may be, to perform the determinations or calculations and notify the Company and Holder of the results no later than five (5) Trading Days from the time it receives the disputed determinations or calculations. Such investment bank’s or accountants’ determination or calculation, as the case may be, shall be binding upon all parties absent demonstrable error, and the Company and Holder shall each pay one half of the fees and costs of such investment banker or accountant. Notwithstanding the existence of a dispute contemplated by this paragraph, if requested by Holder, the Company shall issue to Holder the Exercise Shares not in dispute in accordance with the terms hereof.
4. Transfer and Registration.
(a) Transfer Rights. Subject to the provisions of Section 8 of this Warrant, this Warrant may be transferred on the books of the Company, in whole or in part, in person or by attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant properly completed and endorsed. This Warrant shall be canceled upon such surrender and, as soon as practicable thereafter, the person to whom such transfer is made shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant or Warrants as to the portion of this Warrant transferred, and Holder shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant as to the portion hereof retained.
(b) Registrable Securities. The Common Stock issuable upon the Exercise of this Warrant entitles Holder (and applicable assignees or transferees of such Common Stock) to registration and other rights pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement.
11
5. Adjustments Upon Certain Events.
(a) Recapitalization or Reclassification. If the Company shall at any time effect a stock split, payment of stock dividend, recapitalization, reclassification or other similar transaction of such character that the shares of Common Stock shall be changed into or become exchangeable for a larger or smaller number of shares, then upon the effective date thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock which Holder shall be entitled to purchase upon Exercise of this Warrant, shall be increased or decreased, as the case may be, in direct proportion to the increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock by reason of such stock split, payment of stock dividend, recapitalization, reclassification or similar transaction, and the Exercise Price shall be, in the case of an increase in the number of shares, proportionally decreased and, in the case of decrease in the number of shares, proportionally increased. The Company shall give Holder the same notice it provides to holders of Common Stock of any transaction described in this Section 5(a).
(b) Rights Upon Major Transaction.
(i) Major Transaction. In the event that a Major Transaction occurs, then (1) in the case of a Successor Major Transaction, Holder, at its option, may elect to cause the conversion of this Warrant (a “Successor Major Transaction Conversion”), in whole or in part, into the right to receive the Successor Major Transaction Consideration, upon consummation of the Major Transaction, and (2) in the case of all other Major Transactions, Holder shall have the right to exercise this Warrant (or any portion thereof), at any time and from time to time following the occurrence of such event, as a Cashless Major Exercise. In the event Holder shall not have exercised any of its rights under clauses (1) or (2) above within the applicable time periods set forth herein, then the Major Transaction shall be treated as an Assumption (as defined below) in accordance with Section 5(b)(ii) below unless Holder waives its rights under this Section 5(b) with respect to such Major Transaction. Each of the following events shall constitute a “Major Transaction”:
(A) a consolidation, merger, exchange of shares, recapitalization, reorganization, business combination or other similar event, (1) following which the holders of Common Stock immediately preceding such consolidation, merger, exchange, recapitalization, reorganization, combination or event either (a) no longer hold a majority of the shares of Common Stock or (b) no longer have the ability to elect a majority of the board of directors of the Company or (2) as a result of which shares of Common Stock shall be changed into (or the shares of Common Stock become entitled to receive) the same or a different number of shares of the same or another class or classes of stock or securities of the Company or another entity (collectively, a “Change of Control Transaction”);
(B) the sale or transfer, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of (I) all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole) to any Person other than a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company or (II) assets of the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole) for a purchase price equal to more than 50% of the Equity Value (as defined below) of the Company. For purposes of this clause
12
(B), “Equity Value” shall mean (I) the product of (x) the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock on the date the Company delivers the Major Transaction Notice (defined below) multiplied by (y) the per share closing price of the Common Stock on such date on the NasdaqGS as reported by, or based upon data reported by, Bloomberg or, if the NasdaqGS is not the principal trading market for such security, the closing sale price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg;
(C) a purchase, tender or exchange offer made to the holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock, such that following such purchase, tender or exchange offer a Change of Control Transaction shall have occurred;
(D) the liquidation, bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or winding-up (or the occurrence of any analogous proceeding) affecting the Company;
(E) the shares of Common Stock cease to be listed, traded or publicly quoted on the NasdaqGS and are not promptly re-listed or requoted on the New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE MKT, the NASDAQ Global Market or the NASDAQ Capital Market; or
(F) the Common Stock ceases to be registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act.
(ii) Assumption. Any assumption of Company obligations under this paragraph shall be referred to herein as an “Assumption.” Unless otherwise provided in writing by Holder, the Company shall not consummate a Major Transaction in which the Company is not the surviving entity or as a result of which the Company has a new Parent Entity, unless (A) each Person acquiring the Company’s assets or Common Stock (or Parent Entity thereof, as applicable), or any other successor entity resulting from such Major Transaction (in each case, a “Successor Entity”), assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant, the Facility Agreement (but, other than with respect to the Company’s obligations pursuant to Section 5.1(e) and 5.1(p) of the Facility Agreement and the other provisions of the Facility Agreement that expressly survive the repayment of the Loans (which shall be assumed in any Assumption), only if there are outstanding Loans under the Facility Agreement immediately following the consummation of the Major Transaction) and the Registration Rights Agreement in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5(b)(ii) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Holder and approved by Holder prior to the consummation of such Major Transaction (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), including agreements to deliver to Holder in exchange for its Warrants a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to the Warrants, that, among other things, (1) is exercisable for the appropriate number of shares of the Successor Entity’s capital stock (without regard to the 4.985% Cap or any other restriction or limitation on exercise, provided that such instrument shall contain a limitation on exercise comparable to that contained in the second paragraph of Section 1 of this Warrant), (2) has an exercise price similar
13
to the then-effective Exercise Price (taking into account any conversion or exchange ratio applicable to the Common Stock in the Major Transaction) and exercise price adjustment provisions similar to those in the Warrants; or (3) entitles Holder to such additional securities or other consideration as Holder would be entitled pursuant to Section 5(b)(i) in connection with the Major Transaction; and (4) provides for registration rights similar to those provided by the Registration Rights Agreement, in each case reasonably satisfactory to Holder, and (B) the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity) is a publicly traded corporation whose common stock is quoted on or listed for trading on an Eligible Market. For the avoidance of doubt, Holders’ reasonable satisfaction referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall be construed only to apply to confirmation that the warrant or other comparable security and registration rights agreement delivered to Holder upon an assumption hereunder shall conform to the requirements of this Section 5(b)(ii), and this Section 5(b)(ii) shall not be construed as granting consent or approval rights to Holder with respect to the terms of such Major Transaction or to permit Holder to demand any additional consideration in respect of this Warrant other than as provided herein. Upon the occurrence of any Major Transaction, any Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Major Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant and the Registration Rights Agreement referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein. Upon consummation of the Major Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon exercise of this Warrant at any time after the consummation of the Major Transaction, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants prior to such Major Transaction, such shares of publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity, as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Warrant. The provisions of this Section shall apply similarly and equally to successive Major Transactions and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant other than any applicable beneficial ownership limitations.
(iii) Major Transaction Notice; Major Transaction Early Termination Right; Notice of Cashless Major Exercise. At least thirty (30) days prior to the consummation of any Major Transaction, but, in any event, within five (5) Trading Days following the first to occur of (x) the date of the public announcement of such Major Transaction if such announcement is made before 4:00 p.m., New York City time, or (y) the day following the public announcement of such Major Transaction if such announcement is made on and after 4:00 p.m., New York City time, the Company shall deliver written notice thereof via electronic mail and overnight courier to Holder (a “Major Transaction Notice”). At any time during the period beginning after Holder’s receipt of a Major Transaction Notice in respect of a Successor Major Transaction and ending five (5) Trading Days prior to the consummation of such Major Transaction (the “Early Termination Period”), Holder may elect a Successor Major Transaction Conversion by delivering written notice thereof (“Major Transaction Early Termination Notice”) to the Company, which Major Transaction Early Termination Notice shall indicate the portion of the Warrant (with reference to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon a Cash Exercise of such portion, without regard to the 4.985% Cap) that Holder is electing to be treated as a Successor Major Transaction Conversion. The portion of this Warrant subject to early termination pursuant to this Section 5(b)(iii), shall be converted into the right to receive the Successor Major Transaction Consideration
14
To the extent Holder shall elect to effect a Cashless Major Exercise in respect of a Major Transaction, Holder shall deliver its Exercise Form in accordance with Section 3(b), at any time and from time to time following receipt by Holder of the Major Transaction Notice until the later of (x) the Term of this Warrant and (y) the one-year anniversary of the applicable Major Transaction (the “Cashless Major Exercise Period”). For the avoidance of doubt, Holder shall be permitted to make successive Cashless Major Exercises and send successive Exercise Forms in respect of a Cashless Major Exercise from time to time at any time during the Cashless Major Exercise Period.
(iv) Escrow; Payment of Successor Major Transaction Consideration. Following the receipt of a Major Transaction Early Termination Notice in respect of a Successor Major Transaction from Holder, the Company shall not effect a Successor Major Transaction with respect to which Holder has elected a Successor Major Transaction Conversion unless either (A) it obtains, as a condition precedent to such Major Transaction, the written agreement of the Successor Entity that payment of the Successor Major Transaction Consideration shall be made to Holder concurrently with consummation of such Successor Major Transaction, or (B) it shall place the Successor Major Transaction Consideration into an escrow account with an independent escrow agent, and shall instruct the escrow agent to deliver the Successor Major Transaction Consideration to Holder, concurrently with the consummation of the Major Transaction. Notwithstanding clauses (A) and (B) above, Holder shall be treated on a pari passu basis with, and shall not have priority to payments to, the holders of Common Stock in connection with a Major Transaction. For purposes of determining the amount required to be placed in escrow pursuant to the provisions of this subsection (iv) and without affecting the amount of the actual Successor Major Transaction Consideration, the calculation of the price referred to in clause (1) of the first column of Schedule 1 hereto with respect to Stock Price shall be determined based on the Closing Market Price (as defined on Schedule I) of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date that the Successor Major Transaction Consideration is deposited with the escrow agent.
(v) Injunction. Following the receipt of a Major Transaction Early Termination Notice from Holder, in the event that the Company attempts to consummate a Successor Major Transaction without either (1) placing the Successor Major Transaction Consideration in escrow in accordance with subsection (iv) above, or (2) obtaining the written agreement of the Successor Entity as described in subsection (iv) above, Holder shall have the right to apply for an injunction in any state or federal court sitting in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan to prevent the closing of such Major Transaction until the Successor Major Transaction Consideration is delivered to Holder.
An early termination required by this Section 5(b) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 12. To the extent an early termination required by this Section 5(b) is deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of the Warrant by the Company, such early termination shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5, until the Successor Major Transaction Consideration is paid in full, this Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part, by Holder into
15
shares of Common Stock, or in the event the Exercise Date is after the consummation of the Major Transaction, shares of publicly traded common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity pursuant to Section 5(b). The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company’s early termination of any portion of the Warrant under this Section 5(b), Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for Holder. Accordingly, any premium due under this Section 5(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a commercially reasonable estimate of Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.
(c) Exercise Price Adjusted. As used in this Warrant, the term “Exercise Price” shall mean the purchase price per share specified in Section 3(a) of this Warrant, until the occurrence of an event stated in this Section 5 or otherwise set forth in this Warrant, and thereafter shall mean said price as adjusted from time to time in accordance with the provisions of said subsection. No adjustment made pursuant to any provision of this Section 5 shall have the net effect of increasing the aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder or, except as expressly provided in Section 5(a), otherwise increasing the Exercise Price.
(d) Adjustments: Additional Shares, Securities or Assets. In the event that at any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to this Section 5 or otherwise, Holder shall, upon Exercise of this Warrant, become entitled to receive shares and/or other securities or assets (other than Common Stock) then, wherever appropriate, all references herein to shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to refer to and include such shares and/or other securities or assets; and thereafter the number of such shares and/or other securities or assets shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in a manner and upon terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions of this Section 5.
(e) Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Exercise Price and/or number or type of securities issuable upon Exercise is adjusted pursuant to the terms of this Warrant, the Company shall promptly mail to Holder a notice (an “Exercise Price Adjustment Notice”) setting forth the Exercise Price and/or number or type of securities issuable upon Exercise after such adjustment and setting forth a statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. The Company shall, upon the written request at any time of Holder, furnish to Holder a like Warrant setting forth (i) such adjustment or readjustment, (ii) the Exercise Price at the time in effect and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities or property which at the time would be received upon Exercise of the Warrant. For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Company provides an Exercise Price Adjustment Notice pursuant to this Section 5(e), upon the occurrence of any event that leads to an adjustment of the Exercise Price, Holder would be entitled to receive a number of Exercise Shares based upon the new Exercise Price, as adjusted, for exercises occurring on or after the date of such adjustment, regardless of whether Holder accurately refers to the adjusted Exercise Price in the Exercise Form.
6. Fractional Interests.
No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issuable upon the Exercise of this Warrant, but on Exercise of this Warrant, Holder may purchase only a whole number of shares of Common Stock. If, on Exercise of this Warrant, Holder would be entitled to a fractional share of Common Stock or a right to acquire a fractional share of Common Stock, such fractional share shall be disregarded and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon Exercise shall be the next higher whole number of shares.
16
7. Reservation of Shares.
From and after the date hereof, the Company shall at all times reserve for issuance such number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock (or other securities substituted therefor as herein above provided) as shall be sufficient for the Exercise of this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price. If at any time the number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance is below the number of shares sufficient for the Exercise of this Warrant (a “Share Authorization Failure”) (based on the Exercise Price in effect from time to time), the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares, including calling a special meeting of stockholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company’s obligations under this Section 7, in the case of an insufficient number of authorized shares, and using its best efforts to obtain stockholder approval of an increase in such authorized number of shares. The Company covenants and agrees that upon the Exercise of this Warrant, all shares of Common Stock issuable upon such Exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and not subject to preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or similar rights of any Person. The Company covenants and agrees that all shares of Common Stock issuable upon Exercise of this Warrant shall be approved for listing on the NasdaqGS, or, if the NasdaqGS is not the principal trading market for the Common Stock, such principal market on which the Common Stock is traded or listed.
8. Restrictions on Transfer.
(a) Registration or Exemption Required. This Warrant has been issued in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 thereunder and exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state securities (or “blue sky”) laws. None of the Warrant, the Exercise Shares or Failure Payment Shares may be pledged, transferred, sold or assigned except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption to the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws, including Section 4(a)(7) of the Securities Act or a so-called “4[(a)](1) and a half” transaction.
(b) Assignment. Subject to Section 8(a), Holder may sell, transfer, assign, pledge, or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, in whole or in part. Holder shall deliver a written notice to the Company, substantially in the form of the Assignment attached hereto as Exhibit B, indicating the Person or Persons to whom the Warrant shall be assigned and the respective number of warrants to be assigned to each assignee. The Company shall effect the assignment within three (3) Business Days of its receipt of a completed and executed form of Assignment (the “Transfer Delivery Period”), and shall deliver to the assignee(s) designated by Holder a Warrant or Warrants of like tenor and terms entitling Holder to purchase the appropriate number of shares. This Warrant and the rights evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of all Holders from time to time of this Warrant, and shall be enforceable by any such Holder. For avoidance of doubt, in the event Holder notifies the Company that such sale or
17
transfer is a so called “4[(a)](1) and half” transaction, the parties hereto agree that a legal opinion from outside counsel for Holder delivered to counsel for the Company substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C shall be the only requirement to satisfy an exemption from registration under the Securities Act to effectuate such “4[(a)](1) and half” transaction.
9. Noncircumvention.
The Company hereby covenants and agrees that the Company will not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, and will at all times in good faith carry out all the provisions of this Warrant and take all action as may be required to protect the rights of Holder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company (i) shall not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the Exercise Price then in effect, and (ii) shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.
10. Events of Failure; Definition of Black Scholes Value.
(a) Definition.
The occurrence of each of the following shall be considered to be an “Event of Failure.”
(i) A Delivery Failure occurs, where a “Delivery Failure” shall be deemed to have occurred if the Company fails to use its best efforts to deliver Exercise Shares to Holder within any applicable Delivery Period (other than due to the limitation contained in the second paragraph of Section 1);
(ii) A Legend Removal Failure occurs, where a “Legend Removal Failure” shall be deemed to have occurred if the Company fails to use its best efforts to issue this Warrant and/or Exercise Shares without a restrictive legend, or fails to use it best efforts to remove a restrictive legend, when and as required under Section 2(e) hereof;
(iii) a Transfer Delivery Failure occurs, where a “Transfer Delivery Failure” shall be deemed to have occurred if the Company fails to use its best efforts to deliver a Warrant within any applicable Transfer Delivery Period; and
(iv) a Registration Failure (as defined below).
For purpose hereof, “Registration Failure” means that (A) the Company fails to file with the SEC on or before the Filing Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) any Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to Section 2(a) of the Registration Rights Agreement, (B) the Company fails to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain effectiveness with the SEC, prior to the Registration Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), and if such Registration Statement does not become effective prior to the Registration Deadline, as soon as possible thereafter, of any Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) that is required to be filed pursuant to Section 2(a) of the Registration Rights Agreement, or fails to use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Registration Statement current
18
and effective as required in Section 3 of the Registration Rights Agreement, (C) the Company fails to file any additional Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to Section 2(a)(ii) of the Registration Rights Agreement on or before the Additional Filing Deadline or fails to use its reasonable best efforts to cause such new Registration Statement to become effective on or before the Additional Registration Deadline, and if such effectiveness does not occur within such period, as soon as possible thereafter, (D) the Company fails to file any amendment to any Registration Statement, or any additional Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to Section 3(b) of the Registration Rights Agreement within thirty (30) days of the applicable Registration Trigger Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), or fails to use its reasonable best efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective within ninety (90) days of the applicable Registration Trigger Date, and, if such effectiveness does not occur within such period, as soon as possible thereafter, (E) any Registration Statement required to be filed under the Registration Rights Agreement, after its initial effectiveness and during the Registration Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), lapses in effect or, other than on a day during an Allowable Grace Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), sales of all of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) cannot otherwise be made thereunder (whether by reason of the Company’s failure to amend or supplement the prospectus included therein in accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company’s failure to file and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain effectiveness with the SEC of an additional Registration Statement or amended Registration Statement required pursuant to Sections 2(a)(ii) or 3(b) of the Registration Rights Agreement, as applicable, or otherwise), or (F) the Company fails to provide a commercially reasonable written response to any comments to any Registration Statement submitted by the SEC within twenty-five (25) days of the date that such SEC comments are received by the Company.
(b) Failure Payments; Black-Scholes Determination. The Company understands that any Event of Failure (as defined above) could result in economic loss to Holder. In the event that any Event of Failure occurs, as compensation to Holder for such economic loss, the Company agrees to pay to Holder an amount payable, at the Company’s option, either (i) in cash or (ii) in shares of Common Stock that are valued for these purposes at the Volume Weighted Average Price on the date of such calculation (“Failure Payments” and such shares, “Failure Payment Shares”), in each case equal to the total economic loss of Holder determined on a commercially reasonable basis in connection with such Event of Failure for the relevant period (as recalculated on the first Business Day of each month thereafter for as long as Failure Payments shall continue to accrue) from the date of such Event of Failure until the Event of Failure is cured; provided, however, that in the event the Company elects to make Failure Payments in Failure Payment Shares, the Company shall issue, and Holder shall only receive, up to such number of shares of Common Stock in respect of Failure Payments such that Holder and any other persons or entities whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock would be aggregated with Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (including shares held by any “group” of which Holder is a member, but excluding shares beneficially owned by virtue of the ownership of securities or rights to acquire securities that have limitations on the right to convert, exercise or purchase similar to the limitation set forth herein) shall not collectively beneficially own greater than 4.985% of the total number of shares of Common Stock of the Company then issued and outstanding, and the balance of such Failure Payments shall be paid in cash. For purposes of clarification, it is agreed and understood that Failure Payments shall continue to accrue following any Event of Default until the applicable Default Amount is paid in full. The Company shall satisfy any Failure Payments under this Section pursuant to Section 10(c) below. Failure Payments are in addition to any Shares that Holder is entitled to receive upon Exercise of this Warrant.
19
(c) Payment of Accrued Failure Payments. The Failure Payments and Failure Payment Shares representing accrued Failure Payments for each Event of Failure shall be paid or issued and delivered, as the case may be, on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day of each month following a month in which Failure Payments accrued. Nothing herein shall limit Holder’s right to pursue actual damages (to the extent in excess of the Failure Payments) for the Company’s Event of Failure, and Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief). Notwithstanding the above, if a particular Event of Failure results in an Event of Default pursuant to Section 11 hereof, then the Failure Payment, for that Event of Failure only, shall be considered to have been satisfied upon payment to Holder of an amount equal to the greater of (i) the Failure Payment, or (ii) the Default Amount, payable in accordance with Section 11.
(d) Maximum Interest Rate. Nothing contained herein or in any document referred to herein or delivered in connection herewith shall be deemed to establish or require the payment of a rate of interest or other charges in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable law. In the event that the rate of interest or dividends required to be paid or other charges hereunder exceed the maximum permitted by such law, any payments in excess of such maximum shall be credited against amounts owed by the Company to Holder and thereby refunded to the Company.
11. Default.
(a) Events Of Default. Each of the following events shall be considered to be an “Event of Default,” unless waived by Holder:
(i) Failure To Effect Registration. With respect to all Registration Failures, a Registration Failure occurs and remains uncured for a period of more than forty-five (45) days (or sixty (60) days in the case where the Company (i) has, by the Filing Deadline (as defined the Registration Rights Agreement) filed a Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) covering this Warrant and the number of shares required by the Registration Rights Agreement, and (ii) has responded in writing to any comments to the Registration Statement that the Company has received from the SEC, within ten (10) Business Days of such receipt, and nevertheless the SEC has not declared effective a Registration Statement covering the this Warrant and the Shares by the Registration Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement)), and such Registration Failure relates solely to the Company’s failure to have the Registration Statement declared effective by the Registration Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) and with respect to a Registration Failure provided in clause (E) of the definition of “Registration Failure,” such Registration Failure occurs and remains uncured for a period of more than forty-five (45) days.
(ii) Failure To Deliver Common Stock. A Delivery Failure (as defined above) occurs and remains uncured for a period of more than twenty (20) days; or at any time, the Company announces or states in writing that it will not honor its obligations to issue shares of Common Stock to Holder upon Exercise by Holder of the Exercise rights of Holder in accordance with the terms of this Warrant.
20
(iii) Legend Removal Failure. A Legend Removal Failure (as defined above) occurs and remains uncured for a period of twenty (20) days;
(iv) Transfer Delivery Failure. A Transfer Delivery Failure (as defined above) occurs and remains uncured for a period of twenty (20) days;
(v) Corporate Existence; Major Transaction. (A) The Company has failed to (1) place the Successor Major Transaction Consideration into escrow and instruct the escrow agent to release the Successor Major Transaction Consideration to the Holder pursuant to Section 5(b)(iii), or (2) obtain the written agreement of the Successor Entity and cause the Successor Entity to make payment as described in Section 5(b)(iii), (B) the Successor Major Transaction Consideration is not paid contemporaneously with the consummation of the Successor Major Transaction, or (C) with respect to a Major Transaction that is to be treated as an Assumption under the terms hereof, the Company has failed to meet the Assumption requirements of Section 5(b)(i); or
(vi) Section 13 Breach. During the Dividend Restriction Period, the Company declares or pays any dividend or distribution of any kind to the holders of Common Stock of the Company.
(b) Mandatory Early Termination.
(i) Mandatory Early Termination Amount; Cashless Default Exercise. The Company shall notify Holder in writing within two (2) Business Days of the occurrence of an Event of Default. If any Events of Default shall occur then, at the option of Holder, such option exercisable through the delivery of written notice to the Company by such Holder (the “Default Notice”), the Company shall have the right to terminate the outstanding amount of this Warrant and pay to Holder (a “Mandatory Early Termination”), in full satisfaction of its obligations hereunder by delivery of a notice to such effect to Holder within two (2) Business Days following receipt of the Default Notice, an amount payable in cash (the “Mandatory Early Termination Amount” or the “Default Amount”) equal to the Black-Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of such Default Notice (or in the case of an Event of Default referred to in Section 11(a)(vi), on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date the dividend or distribution is declared or, if not first declared, is paid). In the event the Company does not exercise its right to consummate a Mandatory Early Termination, then Holder shall have the right to exercise this Warrant, at any time and from time to time, pursuant to a Cashless Default Exercise in accordance with Section 3(c) above.
The Mandatory Early Termination Amount shall be payable within five (5) Business Days following the date of the applicable Default Notice.
(ii) Liquidated Damages. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the sums payable as Failure Payments or pursuant to a Mandatory Early Termination shall constitute partial liquidated damages and not penalties. The parties further acknowledge that (i) the amount of loss or damages likely to be incurred by Holder is incapable or is difficult to precisely estimate, (ii) the amounts specified bear a reasonable proportion and are not plainly or grossly disproportionate to the probable loss likely to be incurred by Holder, and (iii) the parties are sophisticated business parties and have been represented by sophisticated and able legal and financial counsel and negotiated this Agreement at arm’s length.
21
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Default Amount, together with all other amounts payable hereunder, shall immediately become due and payable, all without demand, presentment or notice, all of which hereby are expressly waived, together with all costs, including legal fees and expenses, of collection, and Holder shall be entitled to exercise all other rights and remedies available at law or in equity.
(c) Posting Of Bond. In the event that any Event of Default occurs hereunder, the Company may not raise as a legal defense (in any Lawsuit, as defined below, or otherwise) or justification to such Event of Default any claim that such Holder or any one associated or affiliated with such Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, unless the Company has posted a surety bond (a “Surety Bond”) for the benefit of such Holder in the amount of 130% of the aggregate Surety Bond Value (as defined below) of all of Holder’s Warrants (the “Bond Amount”), which Surety Bond shall remain in effect until the completion of litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent Holder obtains judgment.
For purposes hereof, a “Lawsuit” shall mean any lawsuit, arbitration or other dispute resolution filed by either party herein pertaining to any of this Warrant, the Facility Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or any other Loan Document (as defined in the Facility Agreement).
“Surety Bond Value,” for the Warrants shall mean 130% of the of the Black-Scholes Value of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date that such bond goes into effect.
(d) Injunction And Posting Of Bond. In the event that the Event of Default referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 11 pertains to the Company’s failure to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to Holder pursuant to a Warrant Exercise, legend removal request, or otherwise, the Company may not refuse such unlegended share delivery based on any claim that such Holder or any one associated or affiliated with such Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, unless an injunction from a court, on prior notice to Holder, restraining and or enjoining Exercise of all or part of said Warrant shall have been sought and obtained by the Company and the Company has posted a Surety Bond for the benefit of such Holder in the amount of the Bond Amount, which Surety Bond shall remain in effect until the completion of litigation of the dispute and the proceeds of which shall be payable to such Holder to the extent Holder obtains judgment.
(e) Remedies, Other Obligations, Breaches And Injunctive Relief. The remedies provided in this Warrant shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Warrant, the Facility Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and any other Loan Document, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief), and nothing herein shall limit the right of Holder to pursue actual damages for any failure by the Company to comply with the terms of this Warrant. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to Holder and that the remedy at law for any such breach may be inadequate. The Company therefore agrees that, in the event of
22
any such breach or threatened breach (including a breach or threatened breach of Section 13), the holder of this Warrant shall be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to an injunction restraining any breach, without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.
12. Holder’s Early Terminations.
