Valid Issuance All shares of Common Stock issued upon the proper exercise of a Warrant in conformity with this Agreement shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
Qualified IPO (a) As soon as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days after the Closing, the Company shall cause the Board to create a special committee which shall include an equal number of MCK Directors and Echo Directors (the “IPO Committee”) which shall oversee the conduct and consummation of a Qualified IPO. As promptly as practicable after its formation, but in no event later than six (6) months after Closing, the IPO Committee shall appoint one or more nationally recognized investment banks to act as underwriters of the Qualified IPO. The engagement of the underwriters shall be on financial and other terms customary in the industry, and all fees and expenses shall be borne by the Company (other than underwriting discounts and commissions which shall be payable by Echo). The Company agrees and acknowledges that it will be the indemnitor of first resort with respect to the Qualified IPO.
(b) In connection with the conduct and consummation of a Qualified IPO, the Company and each of the Initial Members shall cooperate in good faith and use their reasonable best efforts to consummate the Qualified IPO as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than eighteen (18) months from the Closing (“QIPO Deadline”), provided, that the QIPO Deadline may be extended by the IPO Committee based on the advice of the underwriters that prevailing market and/or industry conditions do not support the conduct and consummation of a Qualified IPO and the Company and the Members shall use reasonable best efforts to consummate a Qualified IPO once such conditions are no longer in effect, but not longer than the Initial Period. In furtherance of the QIPO Deadline (and unless extended pursuant to the preceding sentence), Echo shall make an initial filing of a registration statement on Form S-1 relating to the Qualified IPO (the “Registration Statement”) on or prior to twelve (12) months from Closing and thereafter use its reasonable best efforts to prepare and file amendments to the Registration Statement that are reasonably required to (i) appropriately respond to comments received from the SEC relating to such Registration Statement and (ii) otherwise keep the Registration Statement current (including with respect to the financial statements and other financial and other information required by the rules and regulations of the SEC to be included therein). Echo and each of the parties agree they will reasonably consult, and keep each other reasonably informed, and that each party will have the right to participate in the drafting and preparation of any Registration Statement and any amendments thereto, including responses to any comments received from the SEC. Subject to Section 10.01(c), each of the MCK Members and Echo shall have the right to participate equally in the preparation of the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto and otherwise to participate equally in the Qualified IPO process.
(c) If a Qualified IPO has not been consummated within twenty four (24) months following the Closing (such 24-month period, the “Initial Period”), then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary set forth herein, each of the MCK Members and Echo shall have the right to cause Echo, the Company and the other Members to conduct and consummate a Qualified IPO within the IPO Preference Period, and thereafter the MCK Members shall have the right to conduct a Qualified MCK Exit within the MCK Exit Window following such Qualified IPO. Following the IPO Preference Period, each of the MCK Members and Echo shall have the right to cause the Company and the other Members to conduct and consummate a Qualified IPO; provided, that if a Member has delivered an Initial Offer Notice for a ROFO Sale that constitutes a Drag-Along Sale, then neither the Company nor Echo shall conduct a Qualified IPO from the date of delivery of the Initial Offer Notice through the Marketing Period relating to such Drag-Along Sale without the consent of the Drag-Along Sellers. In order to exercise the right to cause or conduct a Qualified IPO pursuant to this Section 10.01(c), the MCK Member or Echo, as the case may be (in either case, the “IPO Demanding Party”), shall be entitled, in its sole discretion, to deliver a written notice to the Company and to the other Initial Members (an “IPO Demand”) notifying the Company and the other Initial Members of the IPO Demanding Party’s exercise of an IPO Demand. Upon receipt of such IPO Demand (which, in the case of a Qualified IPO to be consummated during the IPO Preference Period, shall be delivered no later than on the date that is ten (10) Business Days following the expiration of the Initial Period), the Company and Echo shall effect a Qualified IPO as soon as practicable, but in any event within six (6) months after receipt of such IPO Demand (and in the case of a Qualified IPO to be consummated during the IPO Preference Period, prior to the expiration of such period). Upon receipt of an IPO Demand, the IPO Committee and each of the Initial Members and the Company shall cooperate with each other in the conduct and consummation of such Qualified IPO, including providing access to the documents, records and senior management of the Company, procuring the participation of senior management in investor road-shows and similar marketing efforts, and executing and delivering any documents reasonably requested by the IPO Committee or any underwriter to the Qualified IPO. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event of an IPO Demand, the Company shall cause the Board to appoint to the IPO Committee one additional Director designated by the IPO Demanding Party.
Financing Issues From the incurrence of the Working Capital Facility Obligations until the Discharge of Working Capital Facility Obligations, if any Obligor shall be subject to any Insolvency Proceeding and the Working Capital Facility Collateral Agent or any Working Capital Facility Lender shall desire (i) to permit the use of “Cash Collateral” (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code) constituting Shared Collateral or (ii) to permit any Obligor to obtain financing under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code (“DIP Financing”), then the Notes Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Noteholders, and the Pari Passu Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Pari Passu Lenders, will raise no objection to such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing (provided that such DIP Financing is on terms and conditions no less favorable to the Company and its subsidiaries than any other debtor in possession financing available to the Company in the market) and to the extent the Liens securing the Working Capital Facility Obligations (subject to the principal amount thereof not exceeding the Working Capital Facility Debt Cap) are subordinated to or pari passu with such DIP Financing, the Notes Collateral Agent and the Pari Passu Collateral Agent will subordinate their respective Liens on the Shared Collateral to the Liens securing such DIP Financing (and all obligations relating thereto) in the same priorities and to the same extent as provided herein with respect to the Working Capital Facility and will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except, as expressly agreed by the Working Capital Facility Collateral Agent or to the extent permitted by this Section 6.2 or by Section 6.4(b)); provided, that (i) the aggregate principal amount of the DIP Financing plus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Working Capital Facility Indebtedness plus the aggregate face amount of any letters of credit issued and not reimbursed under the Working Capital Facility Agreement does not exceed the Working Capital Facility Debt Cap and (ii) the Notes Collateral Agent and the Noteholders, and the Pari Passu Collateral Agent and the Pari Passu Lenders, retain the right to object to any ancillary agreements or arrangements regarding Cash Collateral use or the DIP Financing that are materially prejudicial to their interests.
Adjustments for Diluting Issuances Without duplication of any adjustment otherwise provided for in this Section 2, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Shares shall be subject to anti-dilution adjustment from time to time in the manner set forth in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation as if the Shares were issued and outstanding on and as of the date of any such required adjustment.
Issuance Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and of the LOC Documents, if any, and any other terms and conditions which the Issuing Lenders may reasonably require, during the Commitment Period each Issuing Lender shall issue, and the Revolving Lenders shall participate in, Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower from time to time upon request in a form acceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender; provided, however, that (i) the aggregate principal amount of LOC Obligations shall not at any time exceed THIRTY-SEVEN MILLION, FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($37,500,000) (the “LOC Committed Amount”), (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Revolving Loans plus the aggregate principal amount of outstanding LOC Obligations shall not at any time exceed the Revolving Committed Amount then in effect, (iii) no Issuing Lender will be required to issue Letters of Credit in an aggregate amount in excess of such Issuing Lender’s Issuing Lender Sublimit, (iv) all Letters of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars and (v) Letters of Credit shall be issued for any lawful corporate purposes and may be issued as standby letters of credit, including in connection with workers’ compensation and other insurance programs and commercial letters of credit. Except as otherwise expressly agreed upon by all the Revolving Lenders, no Letter of Credit shall have an original expiry date more than twelve (12) months from the date of issuance; provided, however, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and subject to the other terms and conditions to the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder, the expiry dates of Letters of Credit may be extended annually or periodically from time to time on the request of the Borrower or by operation of the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit to a date not more than twelve (12) months from the date of extension; provided, further, that no Letter of Credit, as originally issued or as extended, shall have an expiry date extending beyond the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date. Each Letter of Credit shall comply with the related LOC Documents. The issuance and expiry date of each Letter of Credit shall be a Business Day. Each Letter of Credit issued hereunder shall be in a minimum original face amount of $100,000 or such lesser amount as approved by the applicable Issuing Lender. The Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations in respect of each Existing Letter of Credit, and each Revolving Lender’s participation obligations in connection therewith, shall be governed by the terms of this Credit Agreement. The Existing Letters of Credit shall, as of the Closing Date, be deemed to have been issued as Letters of Credit hereunder and subject to and governed by the terms of this Agreement.
