Eighth Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
Effective January 13, 2017, Bacterin International, Inc. (“Bacterin”), a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Xtant Medical Holdings, Inc.

The Facility generally provided for the refinancing of approximately $24,000,000 in previously existing term loans and the borrowing of an additional $18,000,000 by Bacterin.
The seventh amendment to the Facility deferred Bacterin’s accrued interest payment date for the fiscal quarter ended on December 31, 2016 until January 14, 2017. The Amendment further defers Bacterin’s accrued interest payment date for the fiscal quarter ended until January 31, 2017. The interest due on January 31, 2017 will be $1,107,244.19, plus interest accrued on such interest from January 2, 2017 until paid at a rate equal to 14% plus the higher of the LIBO Rate (as defined in the Facility) for the fiscal quarter ended on December 31, 2016, or 1%.

Pursuant to the Indenture Common Stock SPAs, Bruce Fund, PWPI, PWIMF and Telemetry agreed to purchase from the Company a total of 843,289 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.000001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) at a price of $0.5692 per share.

Indenture Notes
On the Closing Date, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Indenture Notes SPA”) and certain related documents (collectively, the “Indenture Notes Transaction Documents”) with ROS and OrbiMed, to satisfy interest obligations that the Company owed to ROS and OrbiMed pursuant to $52,000,000 of convertible promissory notes issued to them under the Indenture. The Indenture Notes SPA and the Indenture Notes Transaction Documents as more fully described below.
Indenture Notes SPA
Pursuant to the Indenture Notes SPA, ROS and OrbiMed agreed to purchase from the Company a new series of 6% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2021 in the aggregate original principal amount of up to $1,560,000 (each, an “Indenture Note” and, collectively, the “Indenture Notes”). The Indenture Notes are convertible into Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.7589 per share, and mature on July 15, 2021 (the “Maturity Date”) in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Indenture Notes, as more fully described below.
The Company issued the following Indenture Notes on the Closing Date:
· | An Indenture Note in the aggregate original principal amount of $995,700 to ROS (the “ROS Indenture Convertible Note”); and |
· | An Indenture Note in the aggregate original principal amount of $564,300 to OrbiMed (the “OrbiMed Indenture Convertible Note”). |

The Indenture Notes
As set forth above, on the Closing Date, the Company issued to ROS and OrbiMed, the ROS Indenture Convertible Note and the OrbiMed Indenture Convertible Note, respectively.
Interest under the Indenture Notes accrues at a rate of 6% per year and will be paid semi-annually in arrears through the addition of the amount of such interest to the then outstanding principal amount. Upon a default for failure to pay any amount due under the Indenture Notes, interest will accrue at a rate equal to 6.00% per annum plus 100 basis points.
Pursuant to the Indenture Notes, if a fundamental change occurs at any time prior to the Maturity Date, ROS or OrbiMed may require the Company to repurchase the Indenture Note at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Indenture Note, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Fundamental changes under the Indenture Notes include, among others: a change in control of more than 50% of the voting power of the Company’s common equity; a sale of substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company; any transaction where all of the Common Stock is exchanged for the right to receive other securities; and if the Company’s stockholders approve any plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of the Company.
ROS and OrbiMed may cause the redemption and acceleration of an Indenture Note upon any event of default by the Company. Events of default under the Indenture Notes include, among others, a failure by the Company to pay principal and interest on an Indenture Note when due; a failure by the Company to give a fundamental change notice when due; failure by the Company to convert an Indenture Note upon proper notice by ROS or OrbiMed; an acceleration of any other indebtedness of the Company in excess of $1 million; a bankruptcy of the Company; a judgment against the Company in excess of $1 million; and a material breach by the Company of a covenant or other term or condition in an Indenture Note.
The Indenture Notes are convertible at ROS’s or OrbiMed’s election into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.7589 per share at any time prior to the close of business on the second business day immediately preceding the Maturity Date.

Section 6.02 Acceleration.
(a) Automatic Acceleration in Certain Circumstances. If an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(a)(ix) or 6.01(a)(x) occurs with respect to the Company, the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on this Note will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any party.

No such rescission will affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Holder may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, or payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for, this Note or to enforce the performance of any provision of this Note regarding any other matter.
- 20 - |
A delay or omission by the Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default will not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative.
Section 6.04 Sole Remedy for Failure to Report.
(a) General. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, the Company may elect that the sole remedy for any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(vi) relating to the Company’s failure to comply with Section 4.03 (a “Reporting Event of Default”) will, for the period beginning on the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurred and ending on the earlier of (A) the date on which such Reporting Event of Default (i) is cured; or (ii) is validly waived in accordance with Section 6.05; and (B) the sixtieth (60th) calendar day immediately following the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurred, consist exclusively of the right to receive additional interest (the “Special Interest”) on this Note at a rate equal to 0.50% per annum on the principal amount of this Note. Any Special Interest will be payable in the same manner and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on this Note and will accrue in addition to any Additional Interest that the Company is obligated to pay.
(b) Limitation on Remedy. If (i) a Reporting Event of Default occurs and the Company elects that the sole remedy with respect to such Reporting Event of Default will be the Special Interest; and (ii) on the sixty first (61st) day immediately following, and including, the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurred, such Reporting Event of Default has not been cured or validly waived in accordance with Section 6.05, then this Note will become subject to acceleration under Section 6.02(a) on account of such Reporting Event of Default. For the avoidance of doubt, Special Interest will cease to accrue from such sixty first (61st) day, without limiting the generality of this Section 6.04 as it may apply to any subsequent Reporting Event of Default.
(c) Company Election Notice. To elect to pay the Special Interest as the sole remedy for a Reporting Event of Default, the Company must deliver written notice of such election to the Holder prior to the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurs. Any such notice must include a brief description of the report that the Company failed, or will fail, to file, a statement that the Company is electing to pay the Special Interest and the date on which such Reporting Event of Default will occur. If a Reporting Event of Default occurs and the Company fails to timely deliver such notice for such Reporting Event of Default or fails to pay the Special Interest, this Note will be subject to acceleration under Section 6.02(a) on account of such Reporting Event of Default.
(d) Other Events of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Company elects to pay Special Interest with respect to any Reporting Event of Default, the Company’s election will not affect the rights of the Holder with respect to any other Event of Default, including with respect to any other Reporting Event of Default; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, in no event will the Company be obligated to pay Special Interest at a rate greater than 0.50% per annum on the principal amount of this Note.
- 21 - |
Section 6.05 Waiver of Past Defaults. If an Event of Default described in Sections 6.01(a)(i), 6.01(a)(ii), 6.01(a)(iv) or 6.01(a)(vi) (which, in the case of Section 6.01(a)(vi) only, relates to a covenant that cannot be amended without the consent of each affected holder of a note in the Series) or a Default that would lead to such an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, such Event of Default or Default may be waived only with the consent of each affected holder of a note in the Series. Every other Event of Default or Default may be waived by the holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Series (including consents obtained in connection with a repurchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, notes in the Series). Whenever any Event of Default is so waived, it will cease to exist, and whenever any Default is so waived, it will be deemed cured and any Event of Default arising therefrom will be deemed not to occur. However, no such waiver will extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any consequent right

If the Holder converts this Note after the Close of Business on a Regular Record Date, but prior to the Open of Business on the Interest Payment Date corresponding to such Regular Record Date, then (x) the Holder at the Close of Business on such Regular Record Date shall be entitled, notwithstanding such conversion, to receive, on the date the Company delivers (or is required to deliver) the Conversion Consideration due in respect of such conversion, the unpaid interest that would have accrued on such Note to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date (assuming, solely for these purposes, that such Note remained outstanding through such Interest Payment Date); and (y) the Holder must, upon surrender of this Note for conversion, accompany this Note with an amount of cash equal to the amount of such interest referred to in clause (x) above; provided, however, that the Holder need not make such payment (A) for conversions following the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date; (B) if the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after such Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Business Day immediately following such Interest Payment Date; or (C) to the extent of any overdue interest, if any overdue interest exists at the time of conversion with respect to this Note. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder at the Close of Business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date will be entitled to receive interest that accrues (or would have accrued) on this Note to, but excluding, the Maturity Date notwithstanding any conversion of this Note.
(e) Taxes and Duties. If the Holder converts this Note, the Company will pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of any shares of the Common Stock upon the conversion; provided, however, that if any tax is due because the Holder requested that shares of Common Stock be issued in a name other than its own, the Holder will pay such tax and the Company, until having received a sum sufficient to pay such tax, may refuse to deliver any certificates representing the shares of Common Stock being issued in a name other than that of the Holder.
- 23 - |
(f) Restrictions on Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, this Note will not be convertible by the Holder, and the Company will not effect any conversion of this Note, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such convertibility or conversion would result in the Holder or any of its Affiliates beneficially owning in excess of 9.99% of the then-outstanding shares of Common Stock. For these purposes, beneficial ownership and all determinations and calculations (including with respect to calculations of percentage ownership) will be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, if the convertibility of this Note is restricted pursuant to this Section 8.02(f), this Note will continue to be outstanding, and its convertibility will be reinstated if and when the convertibility and conversion will not violate the limitations set forth in this Section 8.02(f).
Section 8.03 Settlement Upon Conversion.
(a) Conversion Obligation.
(i) Conversion Consideration. Subject to the terms hereof, upon conversion of this Note, the consideration (the “Conversion Consideration”) due in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of this Note to be converted will consist of (I) a whole number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date for such conversion (which, if not a whole number, will be rounded down to the nearest whole number); (II) in the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, an equivalent pro rata number of shares and (III) if such Conversion Rate is not a whole number, cash in lieu of the related fractional share in an amount equal to the product of (x) the Last Reported Sale Price per share of Common Stock on such Conversion Date (or, if such Conversion Date is not a Trading Day, the immediately preceding Trading Day) and (y) the fractional portion of such Conversion Rate.
(ii) Delivery of Conversion Consideration. Except as set forth in Section 8.05, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, the Conversion Consideration due upon the conversion of this Note to the Holder on the third (3rd) Business Day immediately following the Conversion Date for such conversion.
(b) Settlement of Accrued Interest and Deemed Payment of Principal. If the Holder converts this Note, the Company will not adjust the Conversion Rate to account for any accrued and unpaid interest on this Note, and, except as provided in Section 8.02(d), the Company’s delivery of the Conversion Consideration due upon such conversion will be deemed to satisfy and discharge in full the Company’s obligation to pay the principal of this Note and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, this Note to, but excluding the Conversion Date. As a result, except as provided in Section 8.02(d), any accrued and unpaid interest with respect to this Note, in the event that it is converted, will be deemed to be paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited.
- 24 - |
Section 8.04 Common Stock Issued Upon Conversion.
(a) The Company will reserve out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, and keep available to satisfy conversion of this Note, a number of shares of Common Stock sufficient to permit the conversion this Note, after giving effect to the largest number of Additional Shares that may from time to time be added to the Conversion Rate as provided in Section 8.07.
(b) Any shares of Common Stock delivered upon the conversion of this Note will be newly issued shares or treasury shares, duly and validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable, free from preemptive rights and free of any lien or adverse claim (except to the extent of any lien or adverse claim created by the action or inaction of the Holder or other Person to whom such shares of Common Stock will be delivered). In addition, the Company will endeavor to comply promptly with all federal and state securities laws regulating the offer and delivery of any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note. The Company will also use its best efforts to cause any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note to be listed on whatever stock exchange(s) the Common Stock is listed on the date the Holder becomes a record holder of such Common Stock.
Section 8.05 Adjustment of Conversion Rate. The Company will adjust the Conversion Rate from time to time as described in this Section 8.05, except that the Company will not make an adjustment to the Conversion Rate if the Holder participates (other than in a share split or share combination), at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, and solely as a result of holding this Note, in the relevant transaction described in this Section 8.05 without having to convert its Note and as if it held a number of shares of the Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the Conversion Rate in effect on the applicable record date, Effective Date or expiration date; and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of this Note (expressed in thousands) on such date.
(a) Stock Dividends and Share Splits. If the Company exclusively issues to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on shares of the outstanding Common Stock, or if the Company effects a share split of the Common Stock or a share combination of the Common Stock (excluding an issuance solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event, as to which the provisions set forth in Section 8.08(a) will apply), the Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Effective Date of such share split or share combination, as applicable; |
- 25 - |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date, as applicable; |
OS0 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date, as applicable; and |
OS1 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination, as applicable. |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date, as applicable. If any dividend, distribution, share split or share combination of the type described in this Section 8.05(a) is declared, but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate will be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution or to effect such share split or share combination, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination had not been declared or announced.
(b) Rights, Options and Warrants. If the Company issues, to all or substantially all holders of its outstanding Common Stock, rights, options or warrants entitling such holders, for a period of not more than sixty (60) calendar days after the record date of such issuance, to subscribe for, or purchase, shares of Common Stock, at a price per share less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, then, subject to the provisions described below with respect to rights issued pursuant to a stockholder rights plan, the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance; |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
OS | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
X | = | the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and |
Y | = | the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (i) the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, over (ii) the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants. |
- 26 - |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, including because the issued rights, options or warrants were not exercised, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance had not occurred.
For purposes of this Section 8.05(b), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle holders of the Common Stock to subscribe for, or purchase, shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for an issuance, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, there will be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors.
(c) Spin-Offs and Other Distributed Property.
(i) If the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness or other assets or property of the Company, or rights, options or warrants to acquire Capital Stock of the Company or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding:
(A) dividends, distributions, rights, options or warrants for which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 8.05(a) or 8.05(b), as applicable;
(B) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash for which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 8.05(d);
(C) Spin-Offs for which the provisions described in Section 8.05(c)(ii) will apply; and
(D) an issuance solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event, as to which the provisions set forth in Section 8.08(a) will apply,
- 27 - |
then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
SP0 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and |
FMV | = | the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) of the shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets, property, rights, options or warrants distributed with respect to each outstanding share of Common Stock on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than the “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, the Holder will receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of this Note outstanding on the record date for the distribution, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, the amount and kind of shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets or property, rights, options or warrants or other securities that the Holder would have received if the Holder had owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the record date for such distribution (or in the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, an equivalent pro rata amount).
If any distribution of the type described in this Section 8.05(c)(i) is not so paid or made, or if any rights, options or warrants are not exercised before their expiration date, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared.
(ii) With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 8.05(c) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to an Affiliate, a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company, and such Capital Stock or similar equity interest is listed or quoted (or will be listed or quoted upon the consummation of the transaction) on a national securities exchange or a reasonably comparable non-U.S. equivalent (a “Spin-Off”), but excluding an issuance solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event as to which the provisions described in Section 8.08(a) apply, the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
- 28 - |
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off; |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
FMV0 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Common Stock applicable to one share of Common Stock (determined for purposes of the definition of Last Reported Sale Price as if such Capital Stock or similar equity interest were the Common Stock) over the first ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period after, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off (the “Valuation Period”); and |
MP0 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock over the Valuation Period. |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date. The adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 8.05(c)(ii) will be calculated as of the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period but will be given effect as of immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in this Note, if necessary, the Company shall delay the settlement of any conversion of this Note where the Conversion Date occurs during the Valuation Period until the third (3rd) Business Day after the last day of the Valuation Period. If any distribution of the type described in this Section 8.05(c)(ii) is declared but not so made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to make such distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared.
(d) Cash Dividends or Distributions. If any cash dividend or distribution (other than a distribution as to which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate was effected pursuant to Section 8.05(e)) is made to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
- 29 - |
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; |
SP0 | = | the Last Reported Sale Price per share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; and |
C | = | the amount in cash per share the Company distributes to holders of Common Stock. |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, the Holder will receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of this Note outstanding on the record date for such cash dividend or distribution, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, the amount of cash that the Holder would have received if the Holder had owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on such record date (or in the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, an equivalent pro rata number of shares). If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 10.05(d) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.
(e) Tender Offers or Exchange Offers. If the Company or any Subsidiary makes a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for the Common Stock, to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of Common Stock exceeds the Last Reported Sale Price per share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the last date (the “Expiration Date”) on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender offer or exchange offer (as it may be amended), the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Expiration Time (as defined below); |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Expiration Time; |
- 30 - |
AC | = | the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board of Directors) paid or payable for shares purchased in such tender or exchange offer; |
OS0 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the time (the “Expiration Time”) on the date such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); |
OS1 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Expiration Time (after giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and |
SP1 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period (the “Averaging Period”) commencing on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date. |
The adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.05(e) will be calculated as of the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Averaging Period but will be given effect as of immediately after the Expiration Time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if necessary, the Company shall delay the settlement of any conversion of this Note where the Conversion Date occurs during the Averaging Period until the third (3rd) Business Day after the last day of the Averaging Period.
(f) Successive Adjustments. After an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Article 8, any subsequent event requiring an adjustment under this Article 8 will cause an adjustment to the Conversion Rate as so adjusted, without duplication.
(g) Limitations Imposed by Stock Market Listing Standards. The Company will not enter into any transaction, or take any other voluntary action, that would result in an adjustment to the Conversion Rate that would violate the listing standards of any securities exchange on which any securities of the Company may be then listed, without complying, if applicable, with the requirements of such listing standards.
(h) Special Settlement Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if:
(i) this Note is to be converted and, as of the Conversion Date for such conversion, any transaction or other event that requires an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Sections 8.05(a) through (e) has occurred but has not yet resulted in an adjustment to the Conversion Rate;
(ii) the consideration due upon such conversion consists of any shares of Common Stock; and
(iii) such shares of Common Stock are not entitled to participate in such transaction or event because they were not held on the related record date or otherwise, then, solely for purpose of such conversion, the Company shall, without duplication, give effect to such adjustment on such Conversion Date.
- 31 - |
In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if:
(i) a Conversion Rate adjustment for any transaction or other event becomes effective on any Ex-Dividend Date pursuant to Sections 8.05(a) through (e);
(ii) this Note is to be converted;
(iii) the Conversion Date for such conversion occurs on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or before the related record date;
(iv) the consideration due upon such conversion includes any whole shares of Common Stock; and
(v) the Holder would be treated, on such record date, as the record holder of such shares of Common Stock based on a Conversion Rate that is adjusted for such event,
then such Conversion Rate adjustment shall not be given effect for such conversion. Instead, the Holder will be treated as if the Holder were, as of such record date, the record holder of such shares of Common Stock on an unadjusted basis and will participate in such transaction or event.
(i) Shareholder Rights Plans. If the Company has a rights plan in effect when the Holder converts this Note, the Company will deliver to the Holder, to the extent the Holder receives any shares of Common Stock upon such conversion of this Note, any rights that, under the rights plan, would be applicable to a share of Common Stock, unless prior to the Conversion Date for this Note, the rights have separated from the Common Stock, in which case, and only in such case, the Conversion Rate will be adjusted pursuant to Section 8.05(c)(i) as if, at the time of such separation, the Company had distributed to all holders of the Common Stock shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness, other assets or property of the Company or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.
(j) Other Adjustments. Whenever any provision of this Note requires the calculation of the Last Reported Sale Price or a function thereof over a period of multiple days (including the Stock Price for purposes of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change), the Company will make appropriate adjustments to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date, Effective Date or expiration date of the event occurs, at any time during such period.
(k) Restrictions on Adjustments. Except as a result of a reverse share split or a share combination subject to Section 8.05(a), and except for readjustments pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 8.05(a), readjustments pursuant to the penultimate paragraph of Section 8.05(b), readjustments pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 8.05(c)(i), readjustments pursuant to the penultimate paragraph of Section 8.05(c)(ii) and readjustments pursuant to Section 8.05(d), in no event will the Conversion Rate be adjusted downward pursuant to Section 8.05(a), (b), (c), (d) or (e). In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Note, the Conversion Rate will not be adjusted:
- 32 - |
(i) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Company’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan;
(ii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or options or rights to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of, or assumed by, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;
(iii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in the preceding clause and outstanding as of the date of the Issue Date;
(iv) upon the repurchase of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to an open-market share repurchase program or other buy-back transaction that is not a tender offer or exchange offer subject to Section 10.05(e);
(v) for a change in the par value of the Common Stock; or
(vi) for accrued and unpaid interest.
(l) Miscellaneous.
(i) Certain Definitions.
(II) For purposes of this Section 8.05, the number of shares outstanding at any time will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock; but, so long as the Company does not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company, will not include shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company.
(III) For purposes of this Section 8.05, the term “Effective Date” will mean the first date on which the Common Stock trades on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, reflecting the relevant share split or share combination, as applicable.
(IV) For purposes of this Article 8, the term “Ex-Dividend Date” will mean the first date on which the shares of the Common Stock trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive the issuance, dividend or distribution in question.
(ii) Notices. Whenever the Company adjusts (or is required to adjust) the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.05, the Company will promptly deliver to the Holder a written notice, which notice will include (i) a brief description of the event requiring adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.05; (ii) the effective time of such adjustment; (iii) the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such adjustment is made; and (iv) a schedule explaining, in reasonable detail, how the Company calculated such adjustment.
- 33 - |
(iii) All calculations and other determinations in respect of the Conversion Rate will be made by the Company to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share, with 5/100,000ths rounded upward.
Section 8.06 Voluntary Adjustments.
(a) Best Interest Increases. The Company may, from time to time, to the extent permitted by law and the applicable rules of any exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, increase the Conversion Rate by any amount if (i) the Board of Directors determines that such increase is in the best interest of the Company; (ii) such increase is in effect for a period of at least twenty (20) Business Days; and (iii) during such period, such increase is irrevocable.
(b) Tax-Related Increases. To the extent permitted by law and the applicable rules of any exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, the Company may (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate if the Board of Directors determines that such increase is advisable to avoid, or diminish, any income tax imposed on holders of the Common Stock or rights to purchase the Common Stock as a result of any dividend or distribution of shares (or rights to acquire shares) or similar event treated as such for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
(c) Notices. Whenever the Board of Directors determines that the Company will increase the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.06, the Company will deliver to the Holder notice of such increase at least fifteen (15) Business Days before such increase will take effect, which notice will state the increase to be made and the period during which such increase will be in effect.
Section 8.07 Adjustments Upon Certain Fundamental Changes.
(a) General. If a Fundamental Change (determined after giving effect to the penultimate paragraph of the definition thereof, but without regard to the exclusion in clause (b)(ii) of the definition thereof) occurs (a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change”), and the Holder converts this Note “in connection with” such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company will, in the circumstances described in this Section 8.07, increase the Conversion Rate for this Note by the number of additional shares of Common Stock (the “Additional Shares”) set forth in this Section 8.07. For purposes of this Section 8.07, a conversion of this Note will be deemed to be “in connection with” a Make-Whole Fundamental Change if the applicable Conversion Date occurs during the period from, and including, the effective date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change up to, and including, the Business Day immediately prior to the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (or, in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that would have been a Fundamental Change but for the exclusion in clause (b)(ii) of the definition thereof, the thirty fifth (35th) Trading Day immediately following the effective date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change). As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than the Business Day after the effective date of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company will notify the Holder of such effective date.
- 34 - |
(b) Determination of Additional Shares. The number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Conversion Rate will be increased if the Holder converts this Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change will be determined by reference to the table below, and will be based on the Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date and the Stock Price for such Make-Whole Fundamental Change. For any Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the “Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date” will mean the date on which such Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective.
(c) Adjustment of Stock Prices and Additional Shares. The Stock Prices set forth in the first row (i.e., the column headers) of the table below will be adjusted on each date on which the Conversion Rate must be adjusted pursuant to Section 8.05. The adjusted Stock Prices will equal the Stock Prices in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the adjustment giving rise to the share price adjustment; and (ii) the denominator of which is the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the adjustment. The numbers of Additional Shares set forth in the table below will be adjusted in the same manner, at the same time and for the same events for which the Conversion Rate is adjusted pursuant to Section 8.05.
(d) Additional Shares Table. The following table sets forth hypothetical Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Dates, Stock Prices and the number of Additional Shares by which the Conversion Rate will be increased per $1,000 principal amount of this Note for the Holder that converts this Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change having such Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date and Stock Price. In the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, the Conversion Rate will be increased by an equivalent pro rata number of shares.

(e) Use of Additional Shares Table. If the Stock Price and/or Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date for a Make-Whole Fundamental Change are not set forth in the table above, then:
(A) if the Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the table or the Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date is between two Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Dates in the table, the number of Additional Shares by which the Conversion Rate will be increased for the Holder that converts this Note in connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the numbers of Additional Shares set forth for the higher and lower Stock Prices listed in the table and the earlier and later Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Dates listed in the table, as applicable, based on a 365- or 366-day year, as applicable;
- 35 - |
(B) if the Stock Price is greater than $8.00, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table, no Additional Shares will be added to the Conversion Rate; and
(C) if the Stock Price is less than $0.60 per share, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table, no Additional Shares will be added to the Conversion Rate.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the Conversion Rate be increased as a result of this Section 8.07 to exceed 1,673.1918 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of this Note, subject to adjustment in the same manner, at the same time and for the same events for which the Conversion Rate must be adjusted as set forth in Section 8.05.
(f) Settlement or Conversion. If the Holder converts this Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company will settle such conversion by delivering Conversion Consideration in accordance with Section 8.03; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.03, if the Holder converts this Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b)(ii) of the definition of Fundamental Change in which the holders of the Common Stock receive only cash in consideration for their shares of Common Stock, the Company will settle such conversion by delivering to the Holder, on the third (3rd) Business Day immediately following the Conversion Date for this Note, an amount of cash, for each $1,000 principal amount of this Note so converted, equal to the product of (i) the Conversion Rate on the Conversion Date applicable to this Note (including any Additional Shares added to such Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.07) and (ii) the Stock Price for such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, or in the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, an equivalent pro rata amount.
Section 8.08 Effect of Recapitalization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.
(a) General. If any of the following events occur:
(1) | any recapitalization, reclassification or change of Common Stock (other than (x) a change only in par value, from par value to no par value or no par value to par value; or (y) changes resulting from a stock split or combination not involving the issuance of any other class or series of securities); |
(2) | any consolidation, merger, combination or similar transaction involving the Company; |
(3) | any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety; or |
- 36 - |
(4) | any statutory share exchange, |
and, in each case, as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, or represent solely the right to receive, stock (including one or more series of the Common Stock), other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Common Stock Change Event” and such stock, other securities, other property or assets, the “Reference Property”, and the amount and kind of Reference Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock would be entitled to receive on account of such Common Stock Change Event, a “Reference Property Unit”), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, at the effective time of such transaction, the consideration due upon a conversion of this Note will be determined in the same manner as if each reference to any number of shares of Common Stock in this Article 8 were instead a reference to the same number of Reference Property Units. For these purposes, the Last Reported Sale Price of any Reference Property Unit or portion thereof that does not consist of a class of securities will be the fair value of such Reference Property Unit or portion thereof, as applicable, determined in good faith by the Company (or, in the case of cash denominated in U.S. dollars, the face amount thereof).
If the Reference Property consists of more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election), then the composition of the Reference Property Unit shall be deemed to be (a) the weighted average, per share of Common Stock, of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock that affirmatively make such an election; or (b) if no holders of the Common Stock affirmatively make such an election, the types and amounts of consideration actually received, per share of Common Stock, by the holders of the Common Stock. The Company shall notify the Holder of such weighted average (if applicable) as soon as practicable after such determination is made.
None of the foregoing provisions will affect the right of the Holder to convert this Note as set forth in Section 8.01 and 8.02 prior to the effective date of such Common Stock Change Event.
(b) Notices.
(i) As soon as practicable upon learning of the anticipated or actual effective date of any Common Stock Change Event, the Company will deliver written notice of such Common Stock Change Event to the Holder. Such Notice will include:
(A) a brief description of such Common Stock Change Event;
(B) the Conversion Rate in effect on the date the Company delivers such notice;
(C) the anticipated effective date for the Common Stock Change Event;
(D) that, on and after the effective date for the Common Stock Change Event, this Note will be convertible into Reference Property Units and cash in lieu of fractional Reference Property Units; and
- 37 - |
(E) the composition of the Reference Property Unit for such Common Stock Change Event.
(c) Successive Common Stock Change Events. If more than one Common Stock Change Event occurs, this Section 8.08 will apply successively to each Common Stock Change Event.
(d) Compliance Covenant. The Company will not become a party to any Common Stock Change Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 8.08.

If an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(a)(ix) or 6.01(a)(x) occurs with respect to the Company, the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on this Note will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any party.
(b) Optional Acceleration. If any Event of Default other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(ix) or 6.01(a)(x) occurs and is continuing, the holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Series then outstanding, by delivering a written notice to the Company, may declare the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all then outstanding notes in the Series immediately due and payable, and upon such declaration, the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all then outstanding notes in the Series will immediately become due and payable.
(c) Rescission of Acceleration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Series then outstanding may, on behalf of the holders of all then outstanding notes in the Series, rescind any acceleration of such notes and its consequences hereunder by delivering written notice to the Company if (i) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and (ii) all existing Events of Default (other than the nonpayment of the principal of, interest, if any, on, or the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for, the notes in the Series that have become due solely as a result of acceleration) have been cured or waived. No such rescission will affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.
- 20 - |
Section 6.03 Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Holder may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, or payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for, this Note or to enforce the performance of any provision of this Note regarding any other matter.
A delay or omission by the Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default will not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative.
Section 6.04 Sole Remedy for Failure to Report.
(a) General. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, the Company may elect that the sole remedy for any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(vi) relating to the Company’s failure to comply with Section 4.03 (a “Reporting Event of Default”) will, for the period beginning on the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurred and ending on the earlier of (A) the date on which such Reporting Event of Default (i) is cured; or (ii) is validly waived in accordance with Section 6.05; and (B) the sixtieth (60th) calendar day immediately following the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurred, consist exclusively of the right to receive additional interest (the “Special Interest”) on this Note at a rate equal to 0.50% per annum on the principal amount of this Note. Any Special Interest will be payable in the same manner and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on this Note and will accrue in addition to any Additional Interest that the Company is obligated to pay.
(b) Limitation on Remedy. If (i) a Reporting Event of Default occurs and the Company elects that the sole remedy with respect to such Reporting Event of Default will be the Special Interest; and (ii) on the sixty first (61st) day immediately following, and including, the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurred, such Reporting Event of Default has not been cured or validly waived in accordance with Section 6.05, then this Note will become subject to acceleration under Section 6.02(a) on account of such Reporting Event of Default. For the avoidance of doubt, Special Interest will cease to accrue from such sixty first (61st) day, without limiting the generality of this Section 6.04 as it may apply to any subsequent Reporting Event of Default.
(c) Company Election Notice. To elect to pay the Special Interest as the sole remedy for a Reporting Event of Default, the Company must deliver written notice of such election to the Holder prior to the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurs. Any such notice must include a brief description of the report that the Company failed, or will fail, to file, a statement that the Company is electing to pay the Special Interest and the date on which such Reporting Event of Default will occur. If a Reporting Event of Default occurs and the Company fails to timely deliver such notice for such Reporting Event of Default or fails to pay the Special Interest, this Note will be subject to acceleration under Section 6.02(a) on account of such Reporting Event of Default.
(d) Other Events of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Company elects to pay Special Interest with respect to any Reporting Event of Default, the Company’s election will not affect the rights of the Holder with respect to any other Event of Default, including with respect to any other Reporting Event of Default; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, in no event will the Company be obligated to pay Special Interest at a rate greater than 0.50% per annum on the principal amount of this Note.
- 21 - |
Section 6.05 Waiver of Past Defaults. If an Event of Default described in Sections 6.01(a)(i), 6.01(a)(ii), 6.01(a)(iv) or 6.01(a)(vi) (which, in the case of Section 6.01(a)(vi) only, relates to a covenant that cannot be amended without the consent of each affected holder of a note in the Series) or a Default that would lead to such an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, such Event of Default or Default may be waived only with the consent of each affected holder of a note in the Series. Every other Event of Default or Default may be waived by the holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Series (including consents obtained in connection with a repurchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, notes in the Series). Whenever any Event of Default is so waived, it will cease to exist, and whenever any Default is so waived, it will be deemed cured and any Event of Default arising therefrom will be deemed not to occur. However, no such waiver will extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any consequent right

(a) In General. Subject to, and upon compliance with, the provisions of this Article 8, at any time prior to the Close of Business on the second (2nd) Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, the Holder may, at its option, convert this Note (or any portion thereof) into Conversion Consideration, as provided in this Article 8. This Note may not be converted after the Close of Business on the second (2nd) Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date.
(b) Closed Periods. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, if the Holder tenders a Repurchase Notice with respect to this Note in accordance with Article 3, this Note may not be converted except to the extent (i) this Note is not subject to such Repurchase Notice, (ii) such Repurchase Notice is withdrawn in accordance with Article 3 or (iii) the Company fails to pay the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for this Note in accordance with Section 3.05(b).
- 22 - |
Section 8.02 Conversion Procedures.
(a) General. To exercise its conversion right with respect to this Note, the Holder must (i) complete and manually sign a conversion notice in the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto, or a facsimile of such conversion notice (such notice, or such facsimile, the “Conversion Notice”); (ii) deliver such signed and completed Conversion Notice, which shall be irrevocable, and this Note to the Company; (iii) furnish any endorsements and transfer documents that the Company may require; and (iv) pay any amounts due pursuant to Section 8.02(d) or 8.02(e). The first Business Day on which the Holder satisfies the foregoing requirements with respect to this Note and on which conversion of this Note is not otherwise prohibited hereunder will be the “Conversion Date” for this Note. If the Holder has delivered a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice with respect to this Note, the Holder may not surrender this Note for conversion until the Holder has withdrawn such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in accordance with Section 3.04. The conversion of this Note will be deemed to occur at the Close of Business on the Conversion Date for this Note, and this converted Note or portion thereof will cease to be outstanding upon conversion.
(b) Holder of Record. If the Holder surrenders the entire principal amount of this Note for conversion, the Holder will no longer be the Holder of this Note as of the Close of Business on the Conversion Date for this Note. The person in whose name any shares of Common Stock are issuable upon conversion of this Note will become the holder of record of such shares as of the Close of Business on the Conversion Date for such conversion.
(c) Conversions in Part. If the Holder surrenders only a portion of the principal amount of this Note for conversion, promptly after the Conversion Date for such portion, the Company will deliver to the Holder a new Note, having a principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the unconverted portion of the Note surrendered for conversion.
(d) Reimbursement of Interest upon Conversion. If the Holder converts this Note after the Close of Business on a Regular Record Date, but prior to the Open of Business on the Interest Payment Date corresponding to such Regular Record Date, then (x) the Holder at the Close of Business on such Regular Record Date shall be entitled, notwithstanding such conversion, to receive, on the date the Company delivers (or is required to deliver) the Conversion Consideration due in respect of such conversion, the unpaid interest that would have accrued on such Note to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date (assuming, solely for these purposes, that such Note remained outstanding through such Interest Payment Date); and (y) the Holder must, upon surrender of this Note for conversion, accompany this Note with an amount of cash equal to the amount of such interest referred to in clause (x) above; provided, however, that the Holder need not make such payment (A) for conversions following the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date; (B) if the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after such Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Business Day immediately following such Interest Payment Date; or (C) to the extent of any overdue interest, if any overdue interest exists at the time of conversion with respect to this Note. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder at the Close of Business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date will be entitled to receive interest that accrues (or would have accrued) on this Note to, but excluding, the Maturity Date notwithstanding any conversion of this Note.
- 23 - |
(e) Taxes and Duties. If the Holder converts this Note, the Company will pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of any shares of the Common Stock upon the conversion; provided, however, that if any tax is due because the Holder requested that shares of Common Stock be issued in a name other than its own, the Holder will pay such tax and the Company, until having received a sum sufficient to pay such tax, may refuse to deliver any certificates representing the shares of Common Stock being issued in a name other than that of the Holder.
(f) Restrictions on Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, this Note will not be convertible by the Holder, and the Company will not effect any conversion of this Note, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such convertibility or conversion would result in the Holder or any of its Affiliates beneficially owning in excess of 9.99% of the then-outstanding shares of Common Stock. For these purposes, beneficial ownership and all determinations and calculations (including with respect to calculations of percentage ownership) will be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, if the convertibility of this Note is restricted pursuant to this Section 8.02(f), this Note will continue to be outstanding, and its convertibility will be reinstated if and when the convertibility and conversion will not violate the limitations set forth in this Section 8.02(f).
Section 8.03 Settlement Upon Conversion.
(a) Conversion Obligation.
(i) Conversion Consideration. Subject to the terms hereof, upon conversion of this Note, the consideration (the “Conversion Consideration”) due in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of this Note to be converted will consist of (I) a whole number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date for such conversion (which, if not a whole number, will be rounded down to the nearest whole number); (II) in the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, an equivalent pro rata number of shares and (III) if such Conversion Rate is not a whole number, cash in lieu of the related fractional share in an amount equal to the product of (x) the Last Reported Sale Price per share of Common Stock on such Conversion Date (or, if such Conversion Date is not a Trading Day, the immediately preceding Trading Day) and (y) the fractional portion of such Conversion Rate.
(ii) Delivery of Conversion Consideration. Except as set forth in Section 8.05, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, the Conversion Consideration due upon the conversion of this Note to the Holder on the third (3rd) Business Day immediately following the Conversion Date for such conversion.
(b) Settlement of Accrued Interest and Deemed Payment of Principal. If the Holder converts this Note, the Company will not adjust the Conversion Rate to account for any accrued and unpaid interest on this Note, and, except as provided in Section 8.02(d), the Company’s delivery of the Conversion Consideration due upon such conversion will be deemed to satisfy and discharge in full the Company’s obligation to pay the principal of this Note and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, this Note to, but excluding the Conversion Date. As a result, except as provided in Section 8.02(d), any accrued and unpaid interest with respect to this Note, in the event that it is converted, will be deemed to be paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited.
- 24 - |
Section 8.04 Common Stock Issued Upon Conversion.
(a) The Company will reserve out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, and keep available to satisfy conversion of this Note, a number of shares of Common Stock sufficient to permit the conversion this Note, after giving effect to the largest number of Additional Shares that may from time to time be added to the Conversion Rate as provided in Section 8.07.
(b) Any shares of Common Stock delivered upon the conversion of this Note will be newly issued shares or treasury shares, duly and validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable, free from preemptive rights and free of any lien or adverse claim (except to the extent of any lien or adverse claim created by the action or inaction of the Holder or other Person to whom such shares of Common Stock will be delivered). In addition, the Company will endeavor to comply promptly with all federal and state securities laws regulating the offer and delivery of any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note. The Company will also use its best efforts to cause any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note to be listed on whatever stock exchange(s) the Common Stock is listed on the date the Holder becomes a record holder of such Common Stock.
Section 8.05 Adjustment of Conversion Rate. The Company will adjust the Conversion Rate from time to time as described in this Section 8.05, except that the Company will not make an adjustment to the Conversion Rate if the Holder participates (other than in a share split or share combination), at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, and solely as a result of holding this Note, in the relevant transaction described in this Section 8.05 without having to convert its Note and as if it held a number of shares of the Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the Conversion Rate in effect on the applicable record date, Effective Date or expiration date; and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of this Note (expressed in thousands) on such date.
(a) Stock Dividends and Share Splits. If the Company exclusively issues to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on shares of the outstanding Common Stock, or if the Company effects a share split of the Common Stock or a share combination of the Common Stock (excluding an issuance solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event, as to which the provisions set forth in Section 8.08(a) will apply), the Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:
where: | ||
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Effective Date of such share split or share combination, as applicable; |
- 25 - |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date, as applicable; |
OS0 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date, as applicable; and |
OS1 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination, as applicable. |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date, as applicable. If any dividend, distribution, share split or share combination of the type described in this Section 8.05(a) is declared, but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate will be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution or to effect such share split or share combination, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination had not been declared or announced.
(b) Rights, Options and Warrants. If the Company issues, to all or substantially all holders of its outstanding Common Stock, rights, options or warrants entitling such holders, for a period of not more than sixty (60) calendar days after the record date of such issuance, to subscribe for, or purchase, shares of Common Stock, at a price per share less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, then, subject to the provisions described below with respect to rights issued pursuant to a stockholder rights plan, the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
where: | ||
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance; |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
OS | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
X | = | the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and |
Y | = | the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (i) the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, over (ii) the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants. |
- 26 - |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, including because the issued rights, options or warrants were not exercised, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance had not occurred.
For purposes of this Section 8.05(b), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle holders of the Common Stock to subscribe for, or purchase, shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for an issuance, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, there will be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors.
(c) Spin-Offs and Other Distributed Property.
(i) If the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness or other assets or property of the Company, or rights, options or warrants to acquire Capital Stock of the Company or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding:
(A) dividends, distributions, rights, options or warrants for which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 8.05(a) or Section 8.05(b), as applicable;
(B) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash for which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 8.05(d);
(C) Spin-Offs for which the provisions described in Section 8.05(c)(ii) will apply; and
(D) an issuance solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event, as to which the provisions set forth in Section 8.08(a) will apply,
- 27 - |
then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
where: | ||
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
SP0 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and |
FMV | = | the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) of the shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets, property, rights, options or warrants distributed with respect to each outstanding share of Common Stock on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than the “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, the Holder will receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of this Note outstanding on the record date for the distribution, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, the amount and kind of shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets or property, rights, options or warrants or other securities that the Holder would have received if the Holder had owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the record date for such distribution (or in the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, an equivalent pro rata amount).
If any distribution of the type described in this Section 8.05(c)(i) is not so paid or made, or if any rights, options or warrants are not exercised before their expiration date, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared.
- 28 - |
(ii) With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 8.05(c) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to an Affiliate, a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company, and such Capital Stock or similar equity interest is listed or quoted (or will be listed or quoted upon the consummation of the transaction) on a national securities exchange or a reasonably comparable non-U.S. equivalent (a “Spin-Off”), but excluding an issuance solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event as to which the provisions described in Section 8.08(a) apply, the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
where: | ||
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off; |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
FMV0 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Common Stock applicable to one share of Common Stock (determined for purposes of the definition of Last Reported Sale Price as if such Capital Stock or similar equity interest were the Common Stock) over the first ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period after, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off (the “Valuation Period”); and |
MP0 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock over the Valuation Period. |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date. The adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 8.05(c)(ii) will be calculated as of the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period but will be given effect as of immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in this Note, if necessary, the Company shall delay the settlement of any conversion of this Note where the Conversion Date occurs during the Valuation Period until the third (3rd) Business Day after the last day of the Valuation Period. If any distribution of the type described in this Section 8.05(c)(ii) is declared but not so made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to make such distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared.
(d) Cash Dividends or Distributions. If any cash dividend or distribution (other than a distribution as to which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate was effected pursuant to Section 8.05(e)) is made to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
- 29 - |
where: | ||
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; |
SP0 | = | the Last Reported Sale Price per share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; and |
C | = | the amount in cash per share the Company distributes to holders of Common Stock. |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, the Holder will receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of this Note outstanding on the record date for such cash dividend or distribution, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, the amount of cash that the Holder would have received if the Holder had owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on such record date (or in the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, an equivalent pro rata number of shares). If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 10.05(d) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.
(e) Tender Offers or Exchange Offers. If the Company or any Subsidiary makes a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for the Common Stock, to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of Common Stock exceeds the Last Reported Sale Price per share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the last date (the “Expiration Date”) on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender offer or exchange offer (as it may be amended), the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
where: | ||
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Expiration Time (as defined below); |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Expiration Time; |
- 30 - |
AC | = | the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board of Directors) paid or payable for shares purchased in such tender or exchange offer; |
OS0 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the time (the “Expiration Time”) on the date such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); |
OS1 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Expiration Time (after giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and |
SP1 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period (the “Averaging Period”) commencing on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date. |
The adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.05(e) will be calculated as of the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Averaging Period but will be given effect as of immediately after the Expiration Time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if necessary, the Company shall delay the settlement of any conversion of this Note where the Conversion Date occurs during the Averaging Period until the third (3rd) Business Day after the last day of the Averaging Period.
(f) Successive Adjustments. After an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Article 8, any subsequent event requiring an adjustment under this Article 8 will cause an adjustment to the Conversion Rate as so adjusted, without duplication.
(g) Limitations Imposed by Stock Market Listing Standards. The Company will not enter into any transaction, or take any other voluntary action, that would result in an adjustment to the Conversion Rate that would violate the listing standards of any securities exchange on which any securities of the Company may be then listed, without complying, if applicable, with the requirements of such listing standards.
(h) Special Settlement Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if:
(i) this Note is to be converted and, as of the Conversion Date for such conversion, any transaction or other event that requires an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Sections 8.05(a) through (e) has occurred but has not yet resulted in an adjustment to the Conversion Rate;
(ii) the consideration due upon such conversion consists of any shares of Common Stock; and
(iii) such shares of Common Stock are not entitled to participate in such transaction or event because they were not held on the related record date or otherwise, then, solely for purpose of such conversion, the Company shall, without duplication, give effect to such adjustment on such Conversion Date.
- 31 - |
In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if:
(i) a Conversion Rate adjustment for any transaction or other event becomes effective on any Ex-Dividend Date pursuant to Sections 8.05(a) through (e);
(ii) this Note is to be converted;
(iii) the Conversion Date for such conversion occurs on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or before the related record date;
(iv) the consideration due upon such conversion includes any whole shares of Common Stock; and
(v) the Holder would be treated, on such record date, as the record holder of such shares of Common Stock based on a Conversion Rate that is adjusted for such event,
then such Conversion Rate adjustment shall not be given effect for such conversion. Instead, the Holder will be treated as if the Holder were, as of such record date, the record holder of such shares of Common Stock on an unadjusted basis and will participate in such transaction or event.
(i) Shareholder Rights Plans. If the Company has a rights plan in effect when the Holder converts this Note, the Company will deliver to the Holder, to the extent the Holder receives any shares of Common Stock upon such conversion of this Note, any rights that, under the rights plan, would be applicable to a share of Common Stock, unless prior to the Conversion Date for this Note, the rights have separated from the Common Stock, in which case, and only in such case, the Conversion Rate will be adjusted pursuant to Section 8.05(c)(i) as if, at the time of such separation, the Company had distributed to all holders of the Common Stock shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness, other assets or property of the Company or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.
(j) Other Adjustments. Whenever any provision of this Note requires the calculation of the Last Reported Sale Price or a function thereof over a period of multiple days (including the Stock Price for purposes of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change), the Company will make appropriate adjustments to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date, Effective Date or expiration date of the event occurs, at any time during such period.
(k) Restrictions on Adjustments. Except as a result of a reverse share split or a share combination subject to Section 8.05(a), and except for readjustments pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 8.05(a), readjustments pursuant to the penultimate paragraph of Section 8.05(b), readjustments pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 8.05(c)(i), readjustments pursuant to the penultimate paragraph of Section 8.05(c)(ii) and readjustments pursuant to Section 8.05(d), in no event will the Conversion Rate be adjusted downward pursuant to Section 8.05(a), (b), (c), (d) or (e). In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Note, the Conversion Rate will not be adjusted:

(i) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Company’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan;
(ii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or options or rights to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of, or assumed by, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;

(iv) upon the repurchase of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to an open-market share repurchase program or other buy-back transaction that is not a tender offer or exchange offer subject to Section 10.05(e);
(v) for a change in the par value of the Common Stock; or
(vi) for accrued and unpaid interest.
(l) Miscellaneous.
(i) Certain Definitions.
(II) For purposes of this Section 8.05, the number of shares outstanding at any time will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock; but, so long as the Company does not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company, will not include shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company.
(III) For purposes of this Section 8.05, the term “Effective Date” will mean the first date on which the Common Stock trades on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, reflecting the relevant share split or share combination, as applicable.
(IV) For purposes of this Article 8, the term “Ex-Dividend Date” will mean the first date on which the shares of the Common Stock trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive the issuance, dividend or distribution in question.
- 33 - |
(ii) Notices. Whenever the Company adjusts (or is required to adjust) the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.05, the Company will promptly deliver to the Holder a written notice, which notice will include (i) a brief description of the event requiring adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.05; (ii) the effective time of such adjustment; (iii) the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such adjustment is made; and (iv) a schedule explaining, in reasonable detail, how the Company calculated such adjustment.
(iii) All calculations and other determinations in respect of the Conversion Rate will be made by the Company to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share, with 5/100,000ths rounded upward.
Section 8.06 Voluntary Adjustments.
(a) Best Interest Increases. The Company may, from time to time, to the extent permitted by law and the applicable rules of any exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, increase the Conversion Rate by any amount if (i) the Board of Directors determines that such increase is in the best interest of the Company; (ii) such increase is in effect for a period of at least twenty (20) Business Days; and (iii) during such period, such increase is irrevocable.
(b) Tax-Related Increases. To the extent permitted by law and the applicable rules of any exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, the Company may (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate if the Board of Directors determines that such increase is advisable to avoid, or diminish, any income tax imposed on holders of the Common Stock or rights to purchase the Common Stock as a result of any dividend or distribution of shares (or rights to acquire shares) or similar event treated as such for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
(c) Notices. Whenever the Board of Directors determines that the Company will increase the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.06, the Company will deliver to the Holder notice of such increase at least fifteen (15) Business Days before such increase will take effect, which notice will state the increase to be made and the period during which such increase will be in effect.
Section 8.07 Adjustments Upon Certain Fundamental Changes.
(a) General. If a Fundamental Change (determined after giving effect to the penultimate paragraph of the definition thereof, but without regard to the exclusion in clause (b)(ii) of the definition thereof) occurs (a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change”), and the Holder converts this Note “in connection with” such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company will, in the circumstances described in this Section 8.07, increase the Conversion Rate for this Note by the number of additional shares of Common Stock (the “Additional Shares”) set forth in this Section 8.07. For purposes of this Section 8.07, a conversion of this Note will be deemed to be “in connection with” a Make-Whole Fundamental Change if the applicable Conversion Date occurs during the period from, and including, the effective date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change up to, and including, the Business Day immediately prior to the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (or, in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that would have been a Fundamental Change but for the exclusion in clause (b)(ii) of the definition thereof, the thirty fifth (35th) Trading Day immediately following the effective date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change). As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than the Business Day after the effective date of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company will notify the Holder of such effective date.
- 34 - |
(b) Determination of Additional Shares. The number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Conversion Rate will be increased if the Holder converts this Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change will be determined by reference to the table below, and will be based on the Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date and the Stock Price for such Make-Whole Fundamental Change. For any Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the “Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date” will mean the date on which such Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective.
(c) Adjustment of Stock Prices and Additional Shares. The Stock Prices set forth in the first row (i.e., the column headers) of the table below will be adjusted on each date on which the Conversion Rate must be adjusted pursuant to Section 8.05. The adjusted Stock Prices will equal the Stock Prices in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the adjustment giving rise to the share price adjustment; and (ii) the denominator of which is the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the adjustment. The numbers of Additional Shares set forth in the table below will be adjusted in the same manner, at the same time and for the same events for which the Conversion Rate is adjusted pursuant to Section 8.05.
(d) Additional Shares Table. The following table sets forth hypothetical Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Dates, Stock Prices and the number of Additional Shares by which the Conversion Rate will be increased per $1,000 principal amount of this Note for the Holder that converts this Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change having such Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date and Stock Price. In the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, the Conversion Rate will be increased by an equivalent pro rata number of shares.

(e) Use of Additional Shares Table. If the Stock Price and/or Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date for a Make-Whole Fundamental Change are not set forth in the table above, then:
(A) if the Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the table or the Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date is between two Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Dates in the table, the number of Additional Shares by which the Conversion Rate will be increased for the Holder that converts this Note in connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the numbers of Additional Shares set forth for the higher and lower Stock Prices listed in the table and the earlier and later Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Dates listed in the table, as applicable, based on a 365- or 366-day year, as applicable;
- 35 - |
(B) if the Stock Price is greater than $8.00, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table, no Additional Shares will be added to the Conversion Rate; and
(C) if the Stock Price is less than $0.60 per share, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table, no Additional Shares will be added to the Conversion Rate.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the Conversion Rate be increased as a result of this Section 8.07 to exceed 1,673.1918 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of this Note, subject to adjustment in the same manner, at the same time and for the same events for which the Conversion Rate must be adjusted as set forth in Section 8.05.
(f) Settlement or Conversion. If the Holder converts this Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company will settle such conversion by delivering Conversion Consideration in accordance with Section 8.03; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.03, if the Holder converts this Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b)(ii) of the definition of Fundamental Change in which the holders of the Common Stock receive only cash in consideration for their shares of Common Stock, the Company will settle such conversion by delivering to the Holder, on the third (3rd) Business Day immediately following the Conversion Date for this Note, an amount of cash, for each $1,000 principal amount of this Note so converted, equal to the product of (i) the Conversion Rate on the Conversion Date applicable to this Note (including any Additional Shares added to such Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.07) and (ii) the Stock Price for such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, or in the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, an equivalent pro rata amount.
Section 8.08 Effect of Recapitalization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.
(a) General. If any of the following events occur:
(1) | any recapitalization, reclassification or change of Common Stock (other than (x) a change only in par value, from par value to no par value or no par value to par value; or (y) changes resulting from a stock split or combination not involving the issuance of any other class or series of securities); |
(2) | any consolidation, merger, combination or similar transaction involving the Company; |
(3) | any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety; or |
- 36 - |
(4) | any statutory share exchange, |
and, in each case, as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, or represent solely the right to receive, stock (including one or more series of the Common Stock), other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Common Stock Change Event” and such stock, other securities, other property or assets, the “Reference Property”, and the amount and kind of Reference Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock would be entitled to receive on account of such Common Stock Change Event, a “Reference Property Unit”), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, at the effective time of such transaction, the consideration due upon a conversion of this Note will be determined in the same manner as if each reference to any number of shares of Common Stock in this Article 8 were instead a reference to the same number of Reference Property Units. For these purposes, the Last Reported Sale Price of any Reference Property Unit or portion thereof that does not consist of a class of securities will be the fair value of such Reference Property Unit or portion thereof, as applicable, determined in good faith by the Company (or, in the case of cash denominated in U.S. dollars, the face amount thereof).
If the Reference Property consists of more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election), then the composition of the Reference Property Unit shall be deemed to be (a) the weighted average, per share of Common Stock, of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock that affirmatively make such an election; or (b) if no holders of the Common Stock affirmatively make such an election, the types and amounts of consideration actually received, per share of Common Stock, by the holders of the Common Stock. The Company shall notify the Holder of such weighted average (if applicable) as soon as practicable after such determination is made.
None of the foregoing provisions will affect the right of the Holder to convert this Note as set forth in Section 8.01 and Section 8.02 prior to the effective date of such Common Stock Change Event.
(b) Notices.
(i) As soon as practicable upon learning of the anticipated or actual effective date of any Common Stock Change Event, the Company will deliver written notice of such Common Stock Change Event to the Holder. Such Notice will include:
(A) a brief description of such Common Stock Change Event;
(B) the Conversion Rate in effect on the date the Company delivers such notice;
(C) the anticipated effective date for the Common Stock Change Event;
(D) that, on and after the effective date for the Common Stock Change Event, this Note will be convertible into Reference Property Units and cash in lieu of fractional Reference Property Units; and
- 37 - |
(E) the composition of the Reference Property Unit for such Common Stock Change Event.
(c) Successive Common Stock Change Events. If more than one Common Stock Change Event occurs, this Section 8.08 will apply successively to each Common Stock Change Event.
(d) Compliance Covenant. The Company will not become a party to any Common Stock Change Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 8.08.

Subject to Section 3(i), from and after the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company will, as promptly as is practicable after the date a Holder’s Notice and Questionnaire is delivered, but in no event after the tenth (10th) day after such date, (i) file with the Commission an amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or prepare and, if permitted or required by applicable law, file a supplement to the Prospectus or an amendment or supplement to any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that such Holder delivering such Notice and Questionnaire is named as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus, and so that such Holder is permitted to deliver such Prospectus to purchasers of Registrable Securities in accordance with applicable law (except that the Company will not be required to file more than one supplement or post-effective amendment in any thirty (30) day period in accordance with this Section 2(d)(i)) and, in the case of a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company will use its best efforts to cause such post-effective amendment to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is practicable; (ii) provide such Holder, upon request, copies of any documents filed pursuant to Section 2(d)(i); and (iii) notify such Holder as promptly as practicable after the effectiveness under the Securities Act of any post-effective amendment filed pursuant to Section 2(d)(i); provided, however, that if such Notice and Questionnaire is delivered during a Deferral Period, then the Company will so inform the Holder delivering such Notice and Questionnaire and will take the actions set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above upon expiration of the Deferral Period in accordance with Section 3(i). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company need not name any Holder that is not a Notice Holder as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus; provided, however, that any Holder that becomes a Notice Holder pursuant to this Section 2(d) (whether or not such Holder was a Notice Holder at the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement) will be named as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus in accordance with this Section 2(d).

3. Registration Procedures. The following provisions will apply in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement.
(a) The Company will:
(i) furnish to the Purchasers and to counsel for the Notice Holders, not less than five (5) Business Days before the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of the Shelf Registration Statement and each amendment thereto and each amendment or supplement, if any, to the Prospectus (other than amendments and supplements that do nothing more than name Notice Holders and provide information with respect thereto and other than filings by the Company under the Exchange Act) and will use its best efforts to reflect in each such document, when so filed with the Commission, such comments as the Purchasers reasonably propose within three (3) Business Days of the delivery of such copies to the Purchasers; and
(ii) include information regarding the Notice Holders and the methods of distribution they have elected for their Registrable Securities provided to the Company in Notices and Questionnaires as necessary to permit such distribution by the methods specified therein.
(b) The Company will ensure that:
(i) the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto, and any Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, comply in all material respects with the Securities Act; and
(ii) the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto do not, when each becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.
(c) The Company will advise the Purchasers, the Notice Holders and any Underwriter that has provided in writing to the Company a telephone or email or other address for notices, and confirm such advice in writing, if requested (which notice pursuant to clauses (ii) to (v), inclusive, below will be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the Company has remedied the basis for such suspension):
(i) when the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto have been filed with the Commission and when the Shelf Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;
(ii) of any request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement or the Prospectus or for additional information;
(iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose;
(iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Common Stock included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and
- 5 - |
(v) of the happening of any event that requires any change in the Shelf Registration Statement or the Prospectus so that they do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.
(d) The Company will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement or the qualification of the securities therein for sale in any jurisdiction and, if issued, to obtain as soon as practicable the withdrawal thereof.
(e) Upon request, the Company will furnish, in electronic or physical form, to each Notice Holder, without charge, one copy of the Shelf Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including all material incorporated therein by reference, and, if a Notice Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits thereto (including exhibits incorporated by reference therein).
(f) During the Shelf Registration Period, the Company will promptly deliver to each Purchaser, each Notice Holder, and any sales or placement agents or underwriters acting on their behalf, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus (including the preliminary Prospectus, if any) relating to the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such person may reasonably request. Subject to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement, the Company consents to the use of the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the foregoing in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities.
(g) Before any offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company will arrange for the qualification of the Registrable Securities for sale under the laws of such U.S. jurisdictions as any Notice reasonably requests and will maintain such qualification in effect so long as required; provided, however, that in no event will the Company be obligated by this Agreement to qualify to do business or as a dealer of securities in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to taxation or service of process in suits in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. If, at any time during the Shelf Registration Period, the Registrable Securities are not “covered securities” within the meaning of Section 18 of the Securities Act, then the Company will arrange for such qualification (subject to the proviso of the immediately preceding paragraph) in each U.S. jurisdiction of residence of each Notice Holder.
(h) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by subsections (c)(ii) to (v), inclusive, above, the Company will promptly (or within the time period provided for by Section 3(i), if applicable) prepare a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or an amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or file any other required document so that the Shelf Registration Statement and the Prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.
- 6 - |
(i) Upon the occurrence or existence of any pending corporate development, public filings with the Commission or any other material event that, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, makes it appropriate to suspend the availability of the Shelf Registration Statement and the Prospectus, the Company will give notice (without notice of the nature or details of such events) to the Notice Holders that the availability of the Shelf Registration Statement is suspended and, upon receipt of any such notice, each Notice Holder agrees: (i) not to sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement until such Notice Holder receives copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus provided for in Section 3(i), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the Prospectus may be used; and (ii) to hold such notice in confidence. Except in the case of a suspension of the availability of the Shelf Registration Statement and the Prospectus solely as the result of filing a post-effective amendment or supplement to the Prospectus to add additional selling securityholders therein, the period during which the availability of the Shelf Registration Statement and any Prospectus is suspended (the “Deferral Period”) will not exceed an aggregate of (A) thirty (30) days (or, if the Shelf Registration Statement is on Form S-1 (or any successor thereto), sixty (60) days) in any calendar quarter; or (B) sixty (60) days (or, if the shelf registration statement is on Form S-1 (or any successor thereto), ninety (90) days) in any calendar year.
(j) The Company will comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and will make generally available to its securityholders an earnings statement (which need not be audited) satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act as soon as practicable after the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement and in any event no later than forty five (45) days after the end of the twelve (12) month period (or ninety (90) days, if such period is a fiscal year) beginning with the first month of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement.
(k) The Company may require each Holder of Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to the Company such information regarding the Holder and the distribution of such Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably require for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement in order to comply with the Securities Act. The Company may exclude from the Shelf Registration Statement the Registrable Securities of any Holder that unreasonably fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving a request from the Company for such information.
(l) Subject to Section 6, the Company will enter into customary agreements (including, if requested by the Majority Holders, an underwriting agreement in customary form that, for the avoidance of doubt, will provide for customary representations and warranties, legal opinions, comfort letters and other documents and certifications) and take all other necessary actions in order to expedite or facilitate the registration or the disposition of the Registrable Securities, and in connection therewith, if an underwriting agreement is entered into, cause the same to contain customary indemnification provisions and procedures.
(m) Subject to Section 6, for persons who are or may be “underwriters” with respect to the Registrable Securities within the meaning of the Securities Act and who make appropriate requests for information to be used solely for the purpose of taking reasonable steps to establish a due diligence or similar defense in connection with the proposed sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration, the Company will:
- 7 - |
(i) make reasonably available during business hours for inspection by the Holders, any Underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Holders or any such Underwriter all relevant financial and other records and pertinent corporate documents of the Company and its subsidiaries; and
(ii) cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees, accountants and auditors to supply all relevant information reasonably requested by the Holders or any such Underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement as is customary for similar due diligence examinations.
(n) In the event that any Broker-Dealer underwrites any Registrable Securities or participates as a member of an underwriting syndicate or selling group or “participates in an offering” (within the meaning of the FINRA Rules) thereof, whether as a Holder or as an underwriter, placement, sales agent or broker or dealer in respect thereof, or otherwise, the Company will, upon the reasonable request of such Broker-Dealer, comply with any reasonable request of such Broker-Dealer in complying with the FINRA Rules.
(o) The Company will use its best efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the offer and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement.
4. Registration Expenses. The Company will bear all expenses incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations under Sections 2 and 3. The Company will reimburse the Purchasers and the Holders for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm or counsel (which may be a nationally recognized law firm experienced in securities matters designated by the Majority Holders) to act as counsel for the Holders in connection therewith.
5. Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the directors, officers, employees, Affiliates and agents of each Holder and each person who Controls any Holder against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Shelf Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in any preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or caused by the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the party claiming indemnification specifically for inclusion therein.
- 8 - |
The Company also agrees to provide customary indemnities to, and to contribute as provided in Section 5(d) to Losses of, any underwriters of the Registrable Securities, their officers, directors and employees and each Person who Controls such underwriters to the same extent as provided herein with respect to the Holders.
(b) Each Holder of securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement (including each Purchaser that is a Holder, in such capacity) severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of the Company’s directors, each of the Company’s officers who sign the Shelf Registration Statement and each person who Controls the Company, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each such Holder, but only with reference to written information relating to such Holder furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be acknowledged by each Notice Holder that is not a Purchaser in such Notice Holder’s Notice and Questionnaire and will be in addition to any liability that any such Notice Holder may otherwise have.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 5 or notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 5, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b), as applicable, above unless and to the extent it has been materially prejudiced through the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses; and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b), as applicable, above. If any action is brought against an indemnified party and it has notified the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to appoint counsel (including local counsel) of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case, the indemnifying party will not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel, other than local counsel if not appointed by the indemnifying party, retained by the indemnified party or parties, except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel will be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel (including local counsel) to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party will have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party will bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party has reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party; (iii) the indemnifying party has not employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the indemnifying party has authorized the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party will not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one (1) separate law firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified persons. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and does not include an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any such indemnified party.
- 9 - |
(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 5 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, then each applicable indemnifying party will have a several, and not joint, obligation to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions) (collectively “Losses”) to which such indemnified party may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by such indemnifying party, on the one hand, and such indemnified party, on the other hand, from the offering of the Registrable Securities and the Shelf Registration Statement that resulted in such Losses; provided, however, that in no case will any underwriter be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or commission applicable to the securities purchased by such underwriter under the Shelf Registration Statement that resulted in such Losses. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, then the indemnifying party and the indemnified party will contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of such indemnifying party, on the one hand, and such indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions, or alleged statements or omissions, that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company will be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering of the Notes (before deducting expenses). Benefits received by any Holder will be deemed to be equal to the value of having the offer and sale of such Holder’s Registrable Securities registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement and hereunder. Benefits received by any underwriter will be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions, as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus relating to the Shelf Registration Statement that resulted in such Losses. Relative fault will be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the indemnifying party, on the one hand, or by the indemnified party, on the other hand, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission. The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5(d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 5, each person who Controls a Holder and each director, officer, employee, Affiliate and agent of such Holder will have the same rights to contribution as such Holder, and each person who Controls the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Shelf Registration Statement and each director of the Company will have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this Section 5(d).
- 10 - |
(e) The provisions of this Section 5 will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Purchaser or Holder or the Company or any of the indemnified persons referred to in this Section 5, and will survive the sale by a Holder of securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement.
6. Underwritten Registrations.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will the method of distribution of Registrable Securities take the form of an underwritten offering without the prior written consent of the Company. Consent may be conditioned on waivers of any of the obligations in Section 3, 4 or 5.
(b) If any Registrable Securities are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the Managing Underwriters will be selected by the Company, subject to the prior written consent of the Majority Holders, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.
(c) No person may participate in any underwritten offering pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement unless such person: (i) agrees to sell such person’s Registrable Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements; and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.
7. Registration Defaults. If any of the following events shall occur (each, a “Registration Default”), then the Company will pay additional interest on the Notes (“Additional Interest”) as follows:
(a) if the Shelf Registration Statement has not been filed with the Commission and has not become effective on or before the one hundred and eightieth (180th) day after the Closing Date, then, commencing on the one hundred and eighty first (181st) day after the Closing Date, Additional Interest will accrue on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes at a rate of 0.25% per annum for the first 90 days beginning on, and including, such one hundred and eighty first (181st) day and 0.50% per annum thereafter;
- 11 - |
(b) if the Shelf Registration Statement has become effective but ceases to be effective or usable for the offer and sale of the Registrable Securities (other than in connection with (i) a Deferral Period; or (ii) as a result filing a post-effective amendment solely to add additional selling securityholders) at any time during the Shelf Registration Period and the Company does not cure the lapse of effectiveness or usability within ten (10) Business Days (or, if a Deferral Period is then in effect, within ten (10) Business Days after the expiration of such Deferral Period) (or, in the case of filing a post-effective amendment solely to add additional selling securityholders, within ten (10) Business Days after the expiration of the ten (10) day period referred to in Section 2(d), subject to the proviso therein), then Additional Interest will accrue on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes at a rate of 0.25% per annum for the first ninety (90) days beginning on, and including, the day following such tenth (10th) Business Day and 0.50% per annum thereafter;
(c) if the Company, through its omission, fails to name as a selling securityholder any Holder that had complied timely with its obligations hereunder in a manner to entitle such Holder to be so named in (i) the Shelf Registration Statement at the time it first became effective; or (ii) any Prospectus at the time it is filed with the Commission (or, if later, the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement), then Additional Interest will accrue on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes held by such Holder at a rate of 0.25% per annum for the first ninety (90) days beginning on, and including, the day following the effective date of such Shelf Registration Statement or the filing of such Prospectus, as applicable, and 0.50% per annum thereafter; and
(d) if the aggregate duration of Deferral Periods in any period exceeds the number of days permitted in respect of such period pursuant to Section 3(i), then, commencing on the day the aggregate duration of Deferral Periods in such period exceeds the number of days permitted in respect of such period, Additional Interest will accrue on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes at a rate of 0.25% per annum for the first ninety (90) days beginning on, and including, and including such date, and 0.50% per annum thereafter; provided, however, that (1) upon the filing and effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement (in the case of paragraph (a) above), (2) upon such time as the applicable Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective and usable for resales (in the case of paragraph (b) above), (3) upon such time as such Holder is permitted to sell its Registrable Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus in accordance with applicable law (in the case of paragraph (c) above), (4) upon the termination of the applicable Deferral Period (in the case of paragraph (d) above), or (5) in any case, upon the expiration of the Shelf Registration Period, Additional Interest will cease to accrue on account of the applicable Registration Default (it being understood that nothing in this sentence will prevent Additional Interest from accruing as a result of any other Registration Default during the Shelf Registration Period).
Any Additional Interest due pursuant to this Section 7 will be payable in cash in the same manner and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on the Notes. If any Note ceases to be outstanding during any period for which Additional Interest is accruing, the Company will prorate the Additional Interest payable with respect to such Note.
Additional Interest will not accrue on the Notes at a rate that exceeds 0.50% per annum in the aggregate and will not be payable under more than one clause above for any given period of time, except that if Additional Interest would be payable because of more than one Registration Default, but at a rate of 0.25% per annum under one Registration Default and at a rate of 0.50% per annum under the other, then the Additional Interest rate will be the higher rate of 0.50% per annum.
- 12 - |
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event will Additional Interest accrue on the shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Notes. However, if there exists a Registration Default with respect to the Registrable Securities on the Maturity Date, then, in addition to any Additional Interest otherwise payable, the Company will make a cash payment to each Holder of any outstanding Note as of the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately before the Maturity Date in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the principal amount of such Note. For purposes of the preceding sentence, Notes that have been converted with a Conversion Date that is on or after January 15, 2021, and on or before the second (2nd) Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date will be considered to be outstanding. Accordingly, and for the avoidance of doubt, if a Registration Default exists on the Maturity Date, the payment described in the preceding two sentences will be payable on all Notes outstanding as of the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date and on all Notes converted with a conversion date that is on or after January 15, 2021, and on or before the second (2nd) Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date.
8. No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company has not entered into, and agrees not to enter into, any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the registration rights granted to the Holders herein.
9. Rule 144A and Rule 144. So long as any Registrable Securities remain outstanding, the Company will file the reports required to be filed by it under Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act and the reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the written request of any Holder of Registrable Securities, make publicly available other information so long as necessary to permit sales of such Holder’s Registrable Securities pursuant to Rules 144 and 144A of the Securities Act. The Company covenants that it will take such further action as any Holder of Registrable Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A (including, without limitation, satisfying the requirements of Rule 144A(d)(4)). Upon the written request of any Holder of Registrable Securities, the Company will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9, nothing in this Section 9 will be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities pursuant to the Exchange Act.
10. Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, qualified, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Company has obtained the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities (determined on an as-converted basis); provided, however, that no amendment, qualification, modification, supplement, waiver or consent with respect to Section 7 will be effective as against any Holder unless consented to in writing by such Holder; provided, further, that this Section 10 may not be amended, qualified, modified or supplemented, and waivers of or consents to departures from this Section 10 may not be given, unless the Company has obtained the written consent of each Purchaser and each Holder.
- 13 - |
11. Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder will be made in writing by hand-delivery, first-class mail, telex, telecopier, email or air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery:
(a) if to a Holder, at the most current address given by such holder to the Company in accordance with the provisions of the Notice and Questionnaire.
(b) if to any Purchaser, initially at the address thereof set forth above; and
(c) if to the Company, initially at its address set forth in the Purchase Agreements.
All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when received.
12. Remedies. Each Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided to it herein or in the Purchase Agreement or granted by law, including recovery of liquidated or other damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
13. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns, including, without the need for an express assignment or any consent by the Company thereto, subsequent Holders, and the indemnified persons referred to in Section 5. The Company hereby agrees to extend the benefits of this Agreement to any Holder, and any such Holder may specifically enforce the provisions of this Agreement as if an original party hereto.
14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
15. Headings. The section headings used herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation hereof.
16. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
17. Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstances, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions hereof will not be in any way impaired or affected thereby, it being intended that all of the rights and privileges of the parties will be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
- 14 - |
18. Common Stock Held by the Company, Etc. Whenever the consent or approval of Holders of a specified percentage of securities is required hereunder, securities held by the Company or its Affiliates (other than subsequent Holders thereof if such subsequent Holders are deemed to be Affiliates solely by reason of their holdings of such securities) will not be counted in determining whether such consent or approval was given by the Holders of such required percentage.

SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT
Dated as of January 17, 2017
Xtant Medical Holdings, Inc.
600 Cruiser Lane
Belgrade, Montana 59714

5.6 | Each Investor understands that nothing in this Agreement, information the Company has filed with and furnished to the Commission or any other materials presented to such Investor in connection with the purchase and sale of the Securities constitutes legal, tax or investment advice.

(A) results in such indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable (prior to its express maturity); or
(B) constitutes a failure to pay the principal of, or interest on, such indebtedness when due and payable at its stated maturity, upon required repurchase, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise, and after the expiration of any applicable grace period,
and, such acceleration shall not have been rescinded or annulled or such failure to pay shall not have been cured, as the case may be, within thirty (30) days after written notice to the Company by the holders of at least 25% of the Series then outstanding;
(viii) a final judgment for the payment of in excess of one million dollars ($1,000,000) (excluding any amounts covered by insurance) is rendered against the Company or any Subsidiary, and such judgment is not discharged or stayed within sixty (60) days after (i) the date on which all rights to appeal such judgment have expired if no appeal has commenced; or (ii) the date on which all rights to appeal have been extinguished;
(ix) the Company or any Significant Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

(C) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary; or
(D) grants any similar relief under any foreign laws,
and, in each such case, the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for sixty (60) days.
(b) Cause Irrelevant. Each of the events enumerated in Section 6.01(a) will constitute an Event of Default whatever the cause and regardless of whether voluntary or involuntary or effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body.
Section 6.02 Acceleration.
(a) Automatic Acceleration in Certain Circumstances. If an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(a)(ix) or 6.01(a)(x) occurs with respect to the Company, the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on this Note will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any party.
(b) Optional Acceleration. If any Event of Default other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(ix) or 6.01(a)(x) occurs and is continuing, the holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Series then outstanding, by delivering a written notice to the Company, may declare the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all then outstanding notes in the Series immediately due and payable, and upon such declaration, the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all then outstanding notes in the Series will immediately become due and payable.
(c) Rescission of Acceleration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Series then outstanding may, on behalf of the holders of all then outstanding notes in the Series, rescind any acceleration of such notes and its consequences hereunder by delivering written notice to the Company if (i) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and (ii) all existing Events of Default (other than the nonpayment of the principal of, interest, if any, on, or the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for, the notes in the Series that have become due solely as a result of acceleration) have been cured or waived. No such rescission will affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.
Section 6.03 Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Holder may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, or payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for, this Note or to enforce the performance of any provision of this Note regarding any other matter.
- 20 - |
A delay or omission by the Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default will not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative.
Section 6.04 Sole Remedy for Failure to Report.
(a) General. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, the Company may elect that the sole remedy for any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(vi) relating to the Company’s failure to comply with Section 4.03 (a “Reporting Event of Default”) will, for the period beginning on the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurred and ending on the earlier of (A) the date on which such Reporting Event of Default (i) is cured; or (ii) is validly waived in accordance with Section 6.05; and (B) the sixtieth (60th) calendar day immediately following the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurred, consist exclusively of the right to receive additional interest (the “Special Interest”) on this Note at a rate equal to 0.50% per annum on the principal amount of this Note. Any Special Interest will be payable in the same manner and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on this Note and will accrue in addition to any Additional Interest that the Company is obligated to pay.
(b) Limitation on Remedy. If (i) a Reporting Event of Default occurs and the Company elects that the sole remedy with respect to such Reporting Event of Default will be the Special Interest; and (ii) on the sixty first (61st) day immediately following, and including, the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurred, such Reporting Event of Default has not been cured or validly waived in accordance with Section 6.05, then this Note will become subject to acceleration under Section 6.02(a) on account of such Reporting Event of Default. For the avoidance of doubt, Special Interest will cease to accrue from such sixty first (61st) day, without limiting the generality of this Section 6.04 as it may apply to any subsequent Reporting Event of Default.
(c) Company Election Notice. To elect to pay the Special Interest as the sole remedy for a Reporting Event of Default, the Company must deliver written notice of such election to the Holder prior to the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurs. Any such notice must include a brief description of the report that the Company failed, or will fail, to file, a statement that the Company is electing to pay the Special Interest and the date on which such Reporting Event of Default will occur. If a Reporting Event of Default occurs and the Company fails to timely deliver such notice for such Reporting Event of Default or fails to pay the Special Interest, this Note will be subject to acceleration under Section 6.02(a) on account of such Reporting Event of Default.
(d) Other Events of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Company elects to pay Special Interest with respect to any Reporting Event of Default, the Company’s election will not affect the rights of the Holder with respect to any other Event of Default, including with respect to any other Reporting Event of Default; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, in no event will the Company be obligated to pay Special Interest at a rate greater than 0.50% per annum on the principal amount of this Note.
- 21 - |
Section 6.05 Waiver of Past Defaults. If an Event of Default described in Sections 6.01(a)(i), 6.01(a)(ii), 6.01(a)(iv) or 6.01(a)(vi) (which, in the case of Section 6.01(a)(vi) only, relates to a covenant that cannot be amended without the consent of each affected holder of a note in the Series) or a Default that would lead to such an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, such Event of Default or Default may be waived only with the consent of each affected holder of a note in the Series. Every other Event of Default or Default may be waived by the holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Series (including consents obtained in connection with a repurchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, notes in the Series). Whenever any Event of Default is so waived, it will cease to exist, and whenever any Default is so waived, it will be deemed cured and any Event of Default arising therefrom will be deemed not to occur. However, no such waiver will extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any consequent right

CONVERSIONS
Section 8.01 Right To Convert.
(a) In General. Subject to, and upon compliance with, the provisions of this Article 8, at any time prior to the Close of Business on the second (2nd) Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, the Holder may, at its option, convert this Note (or any portion thereof) into Conversion Consideration, as provided in this Article 8. This Note may not be converted after the Close of Business on the second (2nd) Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date.
(b) Closed Periods. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, if the Holder tenders a Repurchase Notice with respect to this Note in accordance with Article 3, this Note may not be converted except to the extent (i) this Note is not subject to such Repurchase Notice, (ii) such Repurchase Notice is withdrawn in accordance with Article 3 or (iii) the Company fails to pay the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for this Note in accordance with Section 3.05(b).
- 22 - |
Section 8.02 Conversion Procedures.
(a) General. To exercise its conversion right with respect to this Note, the Holder must (i) complete and manually sign a conversion notice in the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto, or a facsimile of such conversion notice (such notice, or such facsimile, the “Conversion Notice”); (ii) deliver such signed and completed Conversion Notice, which shall be irrevocable, and this Note to the Company; (iii) furnish any endorsements and transfer documents that the Company may require; and (iv) pay any amounts due pursuant to Section 8.02(d) or 8.02(e). The first Business Day on which the Holder satisfies the foregoing requirements with respect to this Note and on which conversion of this Note is not otherwise prohibited hereunder will be the “Conversion Date” for this Note. If the Holder has delivered a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice with respect to this Note, the Holder may not surrender this Note for conversion until the Holder has withdrawn such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in accordance with Section 3.04. The conversion of this Note will be deemed to occur at the Close of Business on the Conversion Date for this Note, and this converted Note or portion thereof will cease to be outstanding upon conversion.
(b) Holder of Record. If the Holder surrenders the entire principal amount of this Note for conversion, the Holder will no longer be the Holder of this Note as of the Close of Business on the Conversion Date for this Note. The person in whose name any shares of Common Stock are issuable upon conversion of this Note will become the holder of record of such shares as of the Close of Business on the Conversion Date for such conversion.
(c) Conversions in Part. If the Holder surrenders only a portion of the principal amount of this Note for conversion, promptly after the Conversion Date for such portion, the Company will deliver to the Holder a new Note, having a principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the unconverted portion of the Note surrendered for conversion.
(d) Reimbursement of Interest upon Conversion. If the Holder converts this Note after the Close of Business on a Regular Record Date, but prior to the Open of Business on the Interest Payment Date corresponding to such Regular Record Date, then (x) the Holder at the Close of Business on such Regular Record Date shall be entitled, notwithstanding such conversion, to receive, on the date the Company delivers (or is required to deliver) the Conversion Consideration due in respect of such conversion, the unpaid interest that would have accrued on such Note to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date (assuming, solely for these purposes, that such Note remained outstanding through such Interest Payment Date); and (y) the Holder must, upon surrender of this Note for conversion, accompany this Note with an amount of cash equal to the amount of such interest referred to in clause (x) above; provided, however, that the Holder need not make such payment (A) for conversions following the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date; (B) if the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after such Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Business Day immediately following such Interest Payment Date; or (C) to the extent of any overdue interest, if any overdue interest exists at the time of conversion with respect to this Note. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder at the Close of Business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date will be entitled to receive interest that accrues (or would have accrued) on this Note to, but excluding, the Maturity Date notwithstanding any conversion of this Note.
- 23 - |
(e) Taxes and Duties. If the Holder converts this Note, the Company will pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of any shares of the Common Stock upon the conversion; provided, however, that if any tax is due because the Holder requested that shares of Common Stock be issued in a name other than its own, the Holder will pay such tax and the Company, until having received a sum sufficient to pay such tax, may refuse to deliver any certificates representing the shares of Common Stock being issued in a name other than that of the Holder.
(f) Restrictions on Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, this Note will not be convertible by the Holder, and the Company will not effect any conversion of this Note, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such convertibility or conversion would result in the Holder or any of its Affiliates beneficially owning in excess of 9.99% of the then-outstanding shares of Common Stock. For these purposes, beneficial ownership and all determinations and calculations (including with respect to calculations of percentage ownership) will be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, if the convertibility of this Note is restricted pursuant to this Section 8.02(f), this Note will continue to be outstanding, and its convertibility will be reinstated if and when the convertibility and conversion will not violate the limitations set forth in this Section 8.02(f).
Section 8.03 Settlement Upon Conversion.
(a) Conversion Obligation.
(i) Conversion Consideration. Subject to the terms hereof, upon conversion of this Note, the consideration (the “Conversion Consideration”) due in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of this Note to be converted will consist of (I) a whole number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date for such conversion (which, if not a whole number, will be rounded down to the nearest whole number); (II) in the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, an equivalent pro rata number of shares and (III) if such Conversion Rate is not a whole number, cash in lieu of the related fractional share in an amount equal to the product of (x) the Last Reported Sale Price per share of Common Stock on such Conversion Date (or, if such Conversion Date is not a Trading Day, the immediately preceding Trading Day) and (y) the fractional portion of such Conversion Rate.
(ii) Delivery of Conversion Consideration. Except as set forth in Section 8.05, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, the Conversion Consideration due upon the conversion of this Note to the Holder on the third (3rd) Business Day immediately following the Conversion Date for such conversion.
(b) Settlement of Accrued Interest and Deemed Payment of Principal. If the Holder converts this Note, the Company will not adjust the Conversion Rate to account for any accrued and unpaid interest on this Note, and, except as provided in Section 8.02(d), the Company’s delivery of the Conversion Consideration due upon such conversion will be deemed to satisfy and discharge in full the Company’s obligation to pay the principal of this Note and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, this Note to, but excluding the Conversion Date. As a result, except as provided in Section 8.02(d), any accrued and unpaid interest with respect to this Note, in the event that it is converted, will be deemed to be paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited.
- 24 - |
Section 8.04 Common Stock Issued Upon Conversion.
(a) The Company will reserve out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, and keep available to satisfy conversion of this Note, a number of shares of Common Stock sufficient to permit the conversion this Note, after giving effect to the largest number of Additional Shares that may from time to time be added to the Conversion Rate as provided in Section 8.07.
(b) Any shares of Common Stock delivered upon the conversion of this Note will be newly issued shares or treasury shares, duly and validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable, free from preemptive rights and free of any lien or adverse claim (except to the extent of any lien or adverse claim created by the action or inaction of the Holder or other Person to whom such shares of Common Stock will be delivered). In addition, the Company will endeavor to comply promptly with all federal and state securities laws regulating the offer and delivery of any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note. The Company will also use its best efforts to cause any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note to be listed on whatever stock exchange(s) the Common Stock is listed on the date the Holder becomes a record holder of such Common Stock.
Section 8.05 Adjustment of Conversion Rate. The Company will adjust the Conversion Rate from time to time as described in this Section 8.05, except that the Company will not make an adjustment to the Conversion Rate if the Holder participates (other than in a share split or share combination), at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, and solely as a result of holding this Note, in the relevant transaction described in this Section 8.05 without having to convert its Note and as if it held a number of shares of the Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the Conversion Rate in effect on the applicable record date, Effective Date or expiration date; and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of this Note (expressed in thousands) on such date.
(a) Stock Dividends and Share Splits. If the Company exclusively issues to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on shares of the outstanding Common Stock, or if the Company effects a share split of the Common Stock or a share combination of the Common Stock (excluding an issuance solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event, as to which the provisions set forth in Section 8.08(a) will apply), the Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Effective Date of such share split or share combination, as applicable; |
- 25 - |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date, as applicable; |
OS0 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date, as applicable; and |
OS1 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination, as applicable. |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date, as applicable. If any dividend, distribution, share split or share combination of the type described in this Section 8.05(a) is declared, but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate will be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution or to effect such share split or share combination, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination had not been declared or announced.
(b) Rights, Options and Warrants. If the Company issues, to all or substantially all holders of its outstanding Common Stock, rights, options or warrants entitling such holders, for a period of not more than sixty (60) calendar days after the record date of such issuance, to subscribe for, or purchase, shares of Common Stock, at a price per share less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, then, subject to the provisions described below with respect to rights issued pursuant to a stockholder rights plan, the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance; |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
OS | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
X | = | the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and |
Y | = | the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (i) the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, over (ii) the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants. |
- 26 - |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, including because the issued rights, options or warrants were not exercised, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance had not occurred.
For purposes of this Section 8.05(b), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle holders of the Common Stock to subscribe for, or purchase, shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for an issuance, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, there will be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors.
(c) Spin-Offs and Other Distributed Property.
(i) If the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness or other assets or property of the Company, or rights, options or warrants to acquire Capital Stock of the Company or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding:
(A) dividends, distributions, rights, options or warrants for which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 8.05(a) or 8.05(b), as applicable;
(B) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash for which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 8.05(d);
(C) Spin-Offs for which the provisions described in Section 8.05(c)(ii) will apply; and
(D) an issuance solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event, as to which the provisions set forth in Section 8.08(a) will apply,
- 27 - |
then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
SP0 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and |
FMV | = | the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) of the shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets, property, rights, options or warrants distributed with respect to each outstanding share of Common Stock on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than the “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, the Holder will receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of this Note outstanding on the record date for the distribution, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, the amount and kind of shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets or property, rights, options or warrants or other securities that the Holder would have received if the Holder had owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the record date for such distribution (or in the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, an equivalent pro rata amount).
If any distribution of the type described in this Section 8.05(c)(i) is not so paid or made, or if any rights, options or warrants are not exercised before their expiration date, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared.
(ii) With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 8.05(c) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to an Affiliate, a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company, and such Capital Stock or similar equity interest is listed or quoted (or will be listed or quoted upon the consummation of the transaction) on a national securities exchange or a reasonably comparable non-U.S. equivalent (a “Spin-Off”), but excluding an issuance solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event as to which the provisions described in Section 8.08(a) apply, the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
- 28 - |
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off; |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
FMV0 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Common Stock applicable to one share of Common Stock (determined for purposes of the definition of Last Reported Sale Price as if such Capital Stock or similar equity interest were the Common Stock) over the first ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period after, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off (the “Valuation Period”); and |
MP0 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock over the Valuation Period. |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date. The adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 8.05(c)(ii) will be calculated as of the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period but will be given effect as of immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in this Note, if necessary, the Company shall delay the settlement of any conversion of this Note where the Conversion Date occurs during the Valuation Period until the third (3rd) Business Day after the last day of the Valuation Period. If any distribution of the type described in this Section 8.05(c)(ii) is declared but not so made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to make such distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared.
(d) Cash Dividends or Distributions. If any cash dividend or distribution (other than a distribution as to which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate was effected pursuant to Section 8.05(e)) is made to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
- 29 - |
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; |
SP0 | = | the Last Reported Sale Price per share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; and |
C | = | the amount in cash per share the Company distributes to holders of Common Stock. |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, the Holder will receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of this Note outstanding on the record date for such cash dividend or distribution, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, the amount of cash that the Holder would have received if the Holder had owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on such record date (or in the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, an equivalent pro rata number of shares). If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 10.05(d) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.
(e) Tender Offers or Exchange Offers. If the Company or any Subsidiary makes a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for the Common Stock, to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of Common Stock exceeds the Last Reported Sale Price per share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the last date (the “Expiration Date”) on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender offer or exchange offer (as it may be amended), the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Expiration Time (as defined below); |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Expiration Time; |
- 30 - |
AC | = | the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board of Directors) paid or payable for shares purchased in such tender or exchange offer; |
OS0 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the time (the “Expiration Time”) on the date such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); |
OS1 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Expiration Time (after giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and |
SP1 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period (the “Averaging Period”) commencing on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date. |
The adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.05(e) will be calculated as of the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Averaging Period but will be given effect as of immediately after the Expiration Time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if necessary, the Company shall delay the settlement of any conversion of this Note where the Conversion Date occurs during the Averaging Period until the third (3rd) Business Day after the last day of the Averaging Period.
(f) Successive Adjustments. After an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Article 8, any subsequent event requiring an adjustment under this Article 8 will cause an adjustment to the Conversion Rate as so adjusted, without duplication.
(g) Limitations Imposed by Stock Market Listing Standards. The Company will not enter into any transaction, or take any other voluntary action, that would result in an adjustment to the Conversion Rate that would violate the listing standards of any securities exchange on which any securities of the Company may be then listed, without complying, if applicable, with the requirements of such listing standards.
(h) Special Settlement Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if:
(i) this Note is to be converted and, as of the Conversion Date for such conversion, any transaction or other event that requires an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Sections 8.05(a) through (e) has occurred but has not yet resulted in an adjustment to the Conversion Rate;
(ii) the consideration due upon such conversion consists of any shares of Common Stock; and
(iii) such shares of Common Stock are not entitled to participate in such transaction or event because they were not held on the related record date or otherwise, then, solely for purpose of such conversion, the Company shall, without duplication, give effect to such adjustment on such Conversion Date.
- 31 - |
In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if:
(i) a Conversion Rate adjustment for any transaction or other event becomes effective on any Ex-Dividend Date pursuant to Sections 8.05(a) through (e);
(ii) this Note is to be converted;
(iii) the Conversion Date for such conversion occurs on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or before the related record date;
(iv) the consideration due upon such conversion includes any whole shares of Common Stock; and
(v) the Holder would be treated, on such record date, as the record holder of such shares of Common Stock based on a Conversion Rate that is adjusted for such event,
then such Conversion Rate adjustment shall not be given effect for such conversion. Instead, the Holder will be treated as if the Holder were, as of such record date, the record holder of such shares of Common Stock on an unadjusted basis and will participate in such transaction or event.
(i) Shareholder Rights Plans. If the Company has a rights plan in effect when the Holder converts this Note, the Company will deliver to the Holder, to the extent the Holder receives any shares of Common Stock upon such conversion of this Note, any rights that, under the rights plan, would be applicable to a share of Common Stock, unless prior to the Conversion Date for this Note, the rights have separated from the Common Stock, in which case, and only in such case, the Conversion Rate will be adjusted pursuant to Section 8.05(c)(i) as if, at the time of such separation, the Company had distributed to all holders of the Common Stock shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness, other assets or property of the Company or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.
(j) Other Adjustments. Whenever any provision of this Note requires the calculation of the Last Reported Sale Price or a function thereof over a period of multiple days (including the Stock Price for purposes of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change), the Company will make appropriate adjustments to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date, Effective Date or expiration date of the event occurs, at any time during such period.
(k) Restrictions on Adjustments. Except as a result of a reverse share split or a share combination subject to Section 8.05(a), and except for readjustments pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 8.05(a), readjustments pursuant to the penultimate paragraph of Section 8.05(b), readjustments pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 8.05(c)(i), readjustments pursuant to the penultimate paragraph of Section 8.05(c)(ii) and readjustments pursuant to Section 8.05(d), in no event will the Conversion Rate be adjusted downward pursuant to Section 8.05(a), (b), (c), (d) or (e). In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Note, the Conversion Rate will not be adjusted:
- 32 - |
(i) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Company’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan;
(ii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or options or rights to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of, or assumed by, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;
(iii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in the preceding clause and outstanding as of the date of the Issue Date;
(iv) upon the repurchase of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to an open-market share repurchase program or other buy-back transaction that is not a tender offer or exchange offer subject to Section 10.05(e);
(v) for a change in the par value of the Common Stock; or
(vi) for accrued and unpaid interest.
(l) Miscellaneous.
(i) Certain Definitions.
(II) For purposes of this Section 8.05, the number of shares outstanding at any time will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock; but, so long as the Company does not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company, will not include shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company.
(III) For purposes of this Section 8.05, the term “Effective Date” will mean the first date on which the Common Stock trades on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, reflecting the relevant share split or share combination, as applicable.
(IV) For purposes of this Article 8, the term “Ex-Dividend Date” will mean the first date on which the shares of the Common Stock trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive the issuance, dividend or distribution in question.
- 33 - |
(ii) Notices. Whenever the Company adjusts (or is required to adjust) the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.05, the Company will promptly deliver to the Holder a written notice, which notice will include (i) a brief description of the event requiring adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.05; (ii) the effective time of such adjustment; (iii) the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such adjustment is made; and (iv) a schedule explaining, in reasonable detail, how the Company calculated such adjustment.
(iii) All calculations and other determinations in respect of the Conversion Rate will be made by the Company to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share, with 5/100,000ths rounded upward.
Section 8.06 Voluntary Adjustments.
(a) Best Interest Increases. The Company may, from time to time, to the extent permitted by law and the applicable rules of any exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, increase the Conversion Rate by any amount if (i) the Board of Directors determines that such increase is in the best interest of the Company; (ii) such increase is in effect for a period of at least twenty (20) Business Days; and (iii) during such period, such increase is irrevocable.
(b) Tax-Related Increases. To the extent permitted by law and the applicable rules of any exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, the Company may (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate if the Board of Directors determines that such increase is advisable to avoid, or diminish, any income tax imposed on holders of the Common Stock or rights to purchase the Common Stock as a result of any dividend or distribution of shares (or rights to acquire shares) or similar event treated as such for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
(c) Notices. Whenever the Board of Directors determines that the Company will increase the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.06, the Company will deliver to the Holder notice of such increase at least fifteen (15) Business Days before such increase will take effect, which notice will state the increase to be made and the period during which such increase will be in effect.
Section 8.07 Adjustments Upon Certain Fundamental Changes.
(a) General. If a Fundamental Change (determined after giving effect to the penultimate paragraph of the definition thereof, but without regard to the exclusion in clause (b)(ii) of the definition thereof) occurs (a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change”), and the Holder converts this Note “in connection with” such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company will, in the circumstances described in this Section 8.07, increase the Conversion Rate for this Note by the number of additional shares of Common Stock (the “Additional Shares”) set forth in this Section 8.07. For purposes of this Section 8.07, a conversion of this Note will be deemed to be “in connection with” a Make-Whole Fundamental Change if the applicable Conversion Date occurs during the period from, and including, the effective date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change up to, and including, the Business Day immediately prior to the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (or, in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that would have been a Fundamental Change but for the exclusion in clause (b)(ii) of the definition thereof, the thirty fifth (35th) Trading Day immediately following the effective date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change). As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than the Business Day after the effective date of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company will notify the Holder of such effective date.
- 34 - |
(b) Determination of Additional Shares. The number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Conversion Rate will be increased if the Holder converts this Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change will be determined by reference to the table below, and will be based on the Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date and the Stock Price for such Make-Whole Fundamental Change. For any Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the “Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date” will mean the date on which such Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective.
(c) Adjustment of Stock Prices and Additional Shares. The Stock Prices set forth in the first row (i.e., the column headers) of the table below will be adjusted on each date on which the Conversion Rate must be adjusted pursuant to Section 8.05. The adjusted Stock Prices will equal the Stock Prices in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the adjustment giving rise to the share price adjustment; and (ii) the denominator of which is the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the adjustment. The numbers of Additional Shares set forth in the table below will be adjusted in the same manner, at the same time and for the same events for which the Conversion Rate is adjusted pursuant to Section 8.05.
(d) Additional Shares Table. The following table sets forth hypothetical Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Dates, Stock Prices and the number of Additional Shares by which the Conversion Rate will be increased per $1,000 principal amount of this Note for the Holder that converts this Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change having such Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date and Stock Price. In the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, the Conversion Rate will be increased by an equivalent pro rata number of shares.

(e) Use of Additional Shares Table. If the Stock Price and/or Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date for a Make-Whole Fundamental Change are not set forth in the table above, then:
(A) if the Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the table or the Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date is between two Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Dates in the table, the number of Additional Shares by which the Conversion Rate will be increased for the Holder that converts this Note in connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the numbers of Additional Shares set forth for the higher and lower Stock Prices listed in the table and the earlier and later Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Dates listed in the table, as applicable, based on a 365- or 366-day year, as applicable;
- 35 - |
(B) if the Stock Price is greater than $8.00, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table, no Additional Shares will be added to the Conversion Rate; and
(C) if the Stock Price is less than $0.60 per share, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table, no Additional Shares will be added to the Conversion Rate.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the Conversion Rate be increased as a result of this Section 8.07 to exceed 1,673.1918 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of this Note, subject to adjustment in the same manner, at the same time and for the same events for which the Conversion Rate must be adjusted as set forth in Section 8.05.
(f) Settlement or Conversion. If the Holder converts this Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company will settle such conversion by delivering Conversion Consideration in accordance with Section 8.03; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.03, if the Holder converts this Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b)(ii) of the definition of Fundamental Change in which the holders of the Common Stock receive only cash in consideration for their shares of Common Stock, the Company will settle such conversion by delivering to the Holder, on the third (3rd) Business Day immediately following the Conversion Date for this Note, an amount of cash, for each $1,000 principal amount of this Note so converted, equal to the product of (i) the Conversion Rate on the Conversion Date applicable to this Note (including any Additional Shares added to such Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.07) and (ii) the Stock Price for such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, or in the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, an equivalent pro rata amount.
Section 8.08 Effect of Recapitalization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.
(a) General. If any of the following events occur:
(1) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of Common Stock (other than (x) a change only in par value, from par value to no par value or no par value to par value; or (y) changes resulting from a stock split or combination not involving the issuance of any other class or series of securities);
(2) any consolidation, merger, combination or similar transaction involving the Company;
(3) any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety; or
- 36 - |
(4) any statutory share exchange,
and, in each case, as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, or represent solely the right to receive, stock (including one or more series of the Common Stock), other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Common Stock Change Event” and such stock, other securities, other property or assets, the “Reference Property”, and the amount and kind of Reference Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock would be entitled to receive on account of such Common Stock Change Event, a “Reference Property Unit”), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, at the effective time of such transaction, the consideration due upon a conversion of this Note will be determined in the same manner as if each reference to any number of shares of Common Stock in this Article 8 were instead a reference to the same number of Reference Property Units. For these purposes, the Last Reported Sale Price of any Reference Property Unit or portion thereof that does not consist of a class of securities will be the fair value of such Reference Property Unit or portion thereof, as applicable, determined in good faith by the Company (or, in the case of cash denominated in U.S. dollars, the face amount thereof).
If the Reference Property consists of more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election), then the composition of the Reference Property Unit shall be deemed to be (a) the weighted average, per share of Common Stock, of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock that affirmatively make such an election; or (b) if no holders of the Common Stock affirmatively make such an election, the types and amounts of consideration actually received, per share of Common Stock, by the holders of the Common Stock. The Company shall notify the Holder of such weighted average (if applicable) as soon as practicable after such determination is made.
None of the foregoing provisions will affect the right of the Holder to convert this Note as set forth in Section 8.01 and 8.02 prior to the effective date of such Common Stock Change Event.
(b) Notices.
(i) As soon as practicable upon learning of the anticipated or actual effective date of any Common Stock Change Event, the Company will deliver written notice of such Common Stock Change Event to the Holder. Such Notice will include:
(A) a brief description of such Common Stock Change Event;
(B) the Conversion Rate in effect on the date the Company delivers such notice;
(C) the anticipated effective date for the Common Stock Change Event;
(D) that, on and after the effective date for the Common Stock Change Event, this Note will be convertible into Reference Property Units and cash in lieu of fractional Reference Property Units; and
- 37 - |
(E) the composition of the Reference Property Unit for such Common Stock Change Event.
(c) Successive Common Stock Change Events. If more than one Common Stock Change Event occurs, this Section 8.08 will apply successively to each Common Stock Change Event.
(d) Compliance Covenant. The Company will not become a party to any Common Stock Change Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 8.08.

(A) results in such indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable (prior to its express maturity); or
(B) constitutes a failure to pay the principal of, or interest on, such indebtedness when due and payable at its stated maturity, upon required repurchase, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise, and after the expiration of any applicable grace period,
and, such acceleration shall not have been rescinded or annulled or such failure to pay shall not have been cured, as the case may be, within thirty (30) days after written notice to the Company by the holders of at least 25% of the Series then outstanding;
(viii) a final judgment for the payment of in excess of one million dollars ($1,000,000) (excluding any amounts covered by insurance) is rendered against the Company or any Subsidiary, and such judgment is not discharged or stayed within sixty (60) days after (i) the date on which all rights to appeal such judgment have expired if no appeal has commenced; or (ii) the date on which all rights to appeal have been extinguished;

and, in each such case, the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for sixty (60) days.

Each of the events enumerated in Section 6.01(a) will constitute an Event of Default whatever the cause and regardless of whether voluntary or involuntary or effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body.
Section 6.02 Acceleration.
(a) Automatic Acceleration in Certain Circumstances. If an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(a)(ix) or 6.01(a)(x) occurs with respect to the Company, the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on this Note will immediately become due and payable without any further action or notice by any party.
(b) Optional Acceleration. If any Event of Default other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(ix) or 6.01(a)(x) occurs and is continuing, the holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Series then outstanding, by delivering a written notice to the Company, may declare the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all then outstanding notes in the Series immediately due and payable, and upon such declaration, the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all then outstanding notes in the Series will immediately become due and payable.
(c) Rescission of Acceleration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Series then outstanding may, on behalf of the holders of all then outstanding notes in the Series, rescind any acceleration of such notes and its consequences hereunder by delivering written notice to the Company if (i) such rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction; and (ii) all existing Events of Default (other than the nonpayment of the principal of, interest, if any, on, or the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for, the notes in the Series that have become due solely as a result of acceleration) have been cured or waived. No such rescission will affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.
Section 6.03 Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Holder may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, or payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for, this Note or to enforce the performance of any provision of this Note regarding any other matter.
- 20 - |
A delay or omission by the Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default will not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative.
Section 6.04 Sole Remedy for Failure to Report.
(a) General. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, the Company may elect that the sole remedy for any Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a)(vi) relating to the Company’s failure to comply with Section 4.03 (a “Reporting Event of Default”) will, for the period beginning on the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurred and ending on the earlier of (A) the date on which such Reporting Event of Default (i) is cured; or (ii) is validly waived in accordance with Section 6.05; and (B) the sixtieth (60th) calendar day immediately following the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurred, consist exclusively of the right to receive additional interest (the “Special Interest”) on this Note at a rate equal to 0.50% per annum on the principal amount of this Note. Any Special Interest will be payable in the same manner and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on this Note and will accrue in addition to any Additional Interest that the Company is obligated to pay.
(b) Limitation on Remedy. If (i) a Reporting Event of Default occurs and the Company elects that the sole remedy with respect to such Reporting Event of Default will be the Special Interest; and (ii) on the sixty first (61st) day immediately following, and including, the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurred, such Reporting Event of Default has not been cured or validly waived in accordance with Section 6.05, then this Note will become subject to acceleration under Section 6.02(a) on account of such Reporting Event of Default. For the avoidance of doubt, Special Interest will cease to accrue from such sixty first (61st) day, without limiting the generality of this Section 6.04 as it may apply to any subsequent Reporting Event of Default.
(c) Company Election Notice. To elect to pay the Special Interest as the sole remedy for a Reporting Event of Default, the Company must deliver written notice of such election to the Holder prior to the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurs. Any such notice must include a brief description of the report that the Company failed, or will fail, to file, a statement that the Company is electing to pay the Special Interest and the date on which such Reporting Event of Default will occur. If a Reporting Event of Default occurs and the Company fails to timely deliver such notice for such Reporting Event of Default or fails to pay the Special Interest, this Note will be subject to acceleration under Section 6.02(a) on account of such Reporting Event of Default.
(d) Other Events of Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Company elects to pay Special Interest with respect to any Reporting Event of Default, the Company’s election will not affect the rights of the Holder with respect to any other Event of Default, including with respect to any other Reporting Event of Default; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, in no event will the Company be obligated to pay Special Interest at a rate greater than 0.50% per annum on the principal amount of this Note.
- 21 - |
Section 6.05 Waiver of Past Defaults. If an Event of Default described in Sections 6.01(a)(i), 6.01(a)(ii), 6.01(a)(iv) or 6.01(a)(vi) (which, in the case of Section 6.01(a)(vi) only, relates to a covenant that cannot be amended without the consent of each affected holder of a note in the Series) or a Default that would lead to such an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, such Event of Default or Default may be waived only with the consent of each affected holder of a note in the Series. Every other Event of Default or Default may be waived by the holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Series (including consents obtained in connection with a repurchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, notes in the Series). Whenever any Event of Default is so waived, it will cease to exist, and whenever any Default is so waived, it will be deemed cured and any Event of Default arising therefrom will be deemed not to occur. However, no such waiver will extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any consequent right

- 22 - |
Section 8.02 Conversion Procedures.
(a) General. To exercise its conversion right with respect to this Note, the Holder must (i) complete and manually sign a conversion notice in the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto, or a facsimile of such conversion notice (such notice, or such facsimile, the “Conversion Notice”); (ii) deliver such signed and completed Conversion Notice, which shall be irrevocable, and this Note to the Company; (iii) furnish any endorsements and transfer documents that the Company may require; and (iv) pay any amounts due pursuant to Section 8.02(d) or 8.02(e). The first Business Day on which the Holder satisfies the foregoing requirements with respect to this Note and on which conversion of this Note is not otherwise prohibited hereunder will be the “Conversion Date” for this Note. If the Holder has delivered a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice with respect to this Note, the Holder may not surrender this Note for conversion until the Holder has withdrawn such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in accordance with Section 3.04. The conversion of this Note will be deemed to occur at the Close of Business on the Conversion Date for this Note, and this converted Note or portion thereof will cease to be outstanding upon conversion.
(b) Holder of Record. If the Holder surrenders the entire principal amount of this Note for conversion, the Holder will no longer be the Holder of this Note as of the Close of Business on the Conversion Date for this Note. The person in whose name any shares of Common Stock are issuable upon conversion of this Note will become the holder of record of such shares as of the Close of Business on the Conversion Date for such conversion.
(c) Conversions in Part. If the Holder surrenders only a portion of the principal amount of this Note for conversion, promptly after the Conversion Date for such portion, the Company will deliver to the Holder a new Note, having a principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the unconverted portion of the Note surrendered for conversion.
(d) Reimbursement of Interest upon Conversion. If the Holder converts this Note after the Close of Business on a Regular Record Date, but prior to the Open of Business on the Interest Payment Date corresponding to such Regular Record Date, then (x) the Holder at the Close of Business on such Regular Record Date shall be entitled, notwithstanding such conversion, to receive, on the date the Company delivers (or is required to deliver) the Conversion Consideration due in respect of such conversion, the unpaid interest that would have accrued on such Note to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date (assuming, solely for these purposes, that such Note remained outstanding through such Interest Payment Date); and (y) the Holder must, upon surrender of this Note for conversion, accompany this Note with an amount of cash equal to the amount of such interest referred to in clause (x) above; provided, however, that the Holder need not make such payment (A) for conversions following the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date; (B) if the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after such Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Business Day immediately following such Interest Payment Date; or (C) to the extent of any overdue interest, if any overdue interest exists at the time of conversion with respect to this Note. For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder at the Close of Business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date will be entitled to receive interest that accrues (or would have accrued) on this Note to, but excluding, the Maturity Date notwithstanding any conversion of this Note.
- 23 - |
(e) Taxes and Duties. If the Holder converts this Note, the Company will pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of any shares of the Common Stock upon the conversion; provided, however, that if any tax is due because the Holder requested that shares of Common Stock be issued in a name other than its own, the Holder will pay such tax and the Company, until having received a sum sufficient to pay such tax, may refuse to deliver any certificates representing the shares of Common Stock being issued in a name other than that of the Holder.
(f) Restrictions on Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, this Note will not be convertible by the Holder, and the Company will not effect any conversion of this Note, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such convertibility or conversion would result in the Holder or any of its Affiliates beneficially owning in excess of 9.99% of the then-outstanding shares of Common Stock. For these purposes, beneficial ownership and all determinations and calculations (including with respect to calculations of percentage ownership) will be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, if the convertibility of this Note is restricted pursuant to this Section 8.02(f), this Note will continue to be outstanding, and its convertibility will be reinstated if and when the convertibility and conversion will not violate the limitations set forth in this Section 8.02(f).
Section 8.03 Settlement Upon Conversion.
(a) Conversion Obligation.
(i) Conversion Consideration. Subject to the terms hereof, upon conversion of this Note, the consideration (the “Conversion Consideration”) due in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of this Note to be converted will consist of (I) a whole number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date for such conversion (which, if not a whole number, will be rounded down to the nearest whole number); (II) in the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, an equivalent pro rata number of shares and (III) if such Conversion Rate is not a whole number, cash in lieu of the related fractional share in an amount equal to the product of (x) the Last Reported Sale Price per share of Common Stock on such Conversion Date (or, if such Conversion Date is not a Trading Day, the immediately preceding Trading Day) and (y) the fractional portion of such Conversion Rate.
(ii) Delivery of Conversion Consideration. Except as set forth in Section 8.05, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, the Conversion Consideration due upon the conversion of this Note to the Holder on the third (3rd) Business Day immediately following the Conversion Date for such conversion.
(b) Settlement of Accrued Interest and Deemed Payment of Principal. If the Holder converts this Note, the Company will not adjust the Conversion Rate to account for any accrued and unpaid interest on this Note, and, except as provided in Section 8.02(d), the Company’s delivery of the Conversion Consideration due upon such conversion will be deemed to satisfy and discharge in full the Company’s obligation to pay the principal of this Note and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, this Note to, but excluding the Conversion Date. As a result, except as provided in Section 8.02(d), any accrued and unpaid interest with respect to this Note, in the event that it is converted, will be deemed to be paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited.
- 24 - |
Section 8.04 Common Stock Issued Upon Conversion.
(a) The Company will reserve out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, and keep available to satisfy conversion of this Note, a number of shares of Common Stock sufficient to permit the conversion this Note, after giving effect to the largest number of Additional Shares that may from time to time be added to the Conversion Rate as provided in Section 8.07.
(b) Any shares of Common Stock delivered upon the conversion of this Note will be newly issued shares or treasury shares, duly and validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable, free from preemptive rights and free of any lien or adverse claim (except to the extent of any lien or adverse claim created by the action or inaction of the Holder or other Person to whom such shares of Common Stock will be delivered). In addition, the Company will endeavor to comply promptly with all federal and state securities laws regulating the offer and delivery of any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note. The Company will also use its best efforts to cause any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note to be listed on whatever stock exchange(s) the Common Stock is listed on the date the Holder becomes a record holder of such Common Stock.
Section 8.05 Adjustment of Conversion Rate. The Company will adjust the Conversion Rate from time to time as described in this Section 8.05, except that the Company will not make an adjustment to the Conversion Rate if the Holder participates (other than in a share split or share combination), at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, and solely as a result of holding this Note, in the relevant transaction described in this Section 8.05 without having to convert its Note and as if it held a number of shares of the Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the Conversion Rate in effect on the applicable record date, Effective Date or expiration date; and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of this Note (expressed in thousands) on such date.
(a) Stock Dividends and Share Splits. If the Company exclusively issues to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on shares of the outstanding Common Stock, or if the Company effects a share split of the Common Stock or a share combination of the Common Stock (excluding an issuance solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event, as to which the provisions set forth in Section 8.08(a) will apply), the Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Effective Date of such share split or share combination, as applicable; |
- 25 - |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date, as applicable; |
OS0 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date, as applicable; and |
OS1 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination, as applicable. |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date, as applicable. If any dividend, distribution, share split or share combination of the type described in this Section 8.05(a) is declared, but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate will be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution or to effect such share split or share combination, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination had not been declared or announced.
(b) Rights, Options and Warrants. If the Company issues, to all or substantially all holders of its outstanding Common Stock, rights, options or warrants entitling such holders, for a period of not more than sixty (60) calendar days after the record date of such issuance, to subscribe for, or purchase, shares of Common Stock, at a price per share less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, then, subject to the provisions described below with respect to rights issued pursuant to a stockholder rights plan, the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance; |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
OS | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
X | = | the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and |
Y | = | the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (i) the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, over (ii) the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants. |
- 26 - |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, including because the issued rights, options or warrants were not exercised, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance had not occurred.
For purposes of this Section 8.05(b), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle holders of the Common Stock to subscribe for, or purchase, shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for an issuance, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, there will be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors.
(c) Spin-Offs and Other Distributed Property.
(i) If the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness or other assets or property of the Company, or rights, options or warrants to acquire Capital Stock of the Company or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding:
(A) dividends, distributions, rights, options or warrants for which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 8.05(a) or 8.05(b), as applicable;
(B) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash for which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 8.05(d);
(C) Spin-Offs for which the provisions described in Section 8.05(c)(ii) will apply; and
(D) an issuance solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event, as to which the provisions set forth in Section 8.08(a) will apply,
- 27 - |
then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
SP0 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and |
FMV | = | the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) of the shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets, property, rights, options or warrants distributed with respect to each outstanding share of Common Stock on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than the “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, the Holder will receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of this Note outstanding on the record date for the distribution, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, the amount and kind of shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets or property, rights, options or warrants or other securities that the Holder would have received if the Holder had owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the record date for such distribution (or in the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, an equivalent pro rata amount).
If any distribution of the type described in this Section 8.05(c)(i) is not so paid or made, or if any rights, options or warrants are not exercised before their expiration date, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared.
(ii) With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 8.05(c) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to an Affiliate, a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company, and such Capital Stock or similar equity interest is listed or quoted (or will be listed or quoted upon the consummation of the transaction) on a national securities exchange or a reasonably comparable non-U.S. equivalent (a “Spin-Off”), but excluding an issuance solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event as to which the provisions described in Section 8.08(a) apply, the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
- 28 - |
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off; |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date; |
FMV0 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Common Stock applicable to one share of Common Stock (determined for purposes of the definition of Last Reported Sale Price as if such Capital Stock or similar equity interest were the Common Stock) over the first ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period after, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off (the “Valuation Period”); and |
MP0 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock over the Valuation Period. |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date. The adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 8.05(c)(ii) will be calculated as of the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period but will be given effect as of immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in this Note, if necessary, the Company shall delay the settlement of any conversion of this Note where the Conversion Date occurs during the Valuation Period until the third (3rd) Business Day after the last day of the Valuation Period. If any distribution of the type described in this Section 8.05(c)(ii) is declared but not so made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to make such distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared.
(d) Cash Dividends or Distributions. If any cash dividend or distribution (other than a distribution as to which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate was effected pursuant to Section 8.05(e)) is made to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
- 29 - |
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; |
SP0 | = | the Last Reported Sale Price per share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; and |
C | = | the amount in cash per share the Company distributes to holders of Common Stock. |
Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, the Holder will receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of this Note outstanding on the record date for such cash dividend or distribution, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock, the amount of cash that the Holder would have received if the Holder had owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on such record date (or in the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, an equivalent pro rata number of shares). If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 10.05(d) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.
(e) Tender Offers or Exchange Offers. If the Company or any Subsidiary makes a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for the Common Stock, to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of Common Stock exceeds the Last Reported Sale Price per share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the last date (the “Expiration Date”) on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender offer or exchange offer (as it may be amended), the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
where:
CR0 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Expiration Time (as defined below); |
CR1 | = | the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Expiration Time; |
- 30 - |
AC | = | the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board of Directors) paid or payable for shares purchased in such tender or exchange offer; |
OS0 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the time (the “Expiration Time”) on the date such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); |
OS1 | = | the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Expiration Time (after giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and |
SP1 | = | the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of the Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period (the “Averaging Period”) commencing on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date. |
The adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.05(e) will be calculated as of the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Averaging Period but will be given effect as of immediately after the Expiration Time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if necessary, the Company shall delay the settlement of any conversion of this Note where the Conversion Date occurs during the Averaging Period until the third (3rd) Business Day after the last day of the Averaging Period.
(f) Successive Adjustments. After an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Article 8, any subsequent event requiring an adjustment under this Article 8 will cause an adjustment to the Conversion Rate as so adjusted, without duplication.
(g) Limitations Imposed by Stock Market Listing Standards. The Company will not enter into any transaction, or take any other voluntary action, that would result in an adjustment to the Conversion Rate that would violate the listing standards of any securities exchange on which any securities of the Company may be then listed, without complying, if applicable, with the requirements of such listing standards.
(h) Special Settlement Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if:
(i) this Note is to be converted and, as of the Conversion Date for such conversion, any transaction or other event that requires an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Sections 8.05(a) through (e) has occurred but has not yet resulted in an adjustment to the Conversion Rate;
(ii) the consideration due upon such conversion consists of any shares of Common Stock; and
(iii) such shares of Common Stock are not entitled to participate in such transaction or event because they were not held on the related record date or otherwise, then, solely for purpose of such conversion, the Company shall, without duplication, give effect to such adjustment on such Conversion Date.
- 31 - |
In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if:
(i) a Conversion Rate adjustment for any transaction or other event becomes effective on any Ex-Dividend Date pursuant to Sections 8.05(a) through (e);
(ii) this Note is to be converted;
(iii) the Conversion Date for such conversion occurs on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or before the related record date;
(iv) the consideration due upon such conversion includes any whole shares of Common Stock; and
(v) the Holder would be treated, on such record date, as the record holder of such shares of Common Stock based on a Conversion Rate that is adjusted for such event,
then such Conversion Rate adjustment shall not be given effect for such conversion. Instead, the Holder will be treated as if the Holder were, as of such record date, the record holder of such shares of Common Stock on an unadjusted basis and will participate in such transaction or event.
(i) Shareholder Rights Plans. If the Company has a rights plan in effect when the Holder converts this Note, the Company will deliver to the Holder, to the extent the Holder receives any shares of Common Stock upon such conversion of this Note, any rights that, under the rights plan, would be applicable to a share of Common Stock, unless prior to the Conversion Date for this Note, the rights have separated from the Common Stock, in which case, and only in such case, the Conversion Rate will be adjusted pursuant to Section 8.05(c)(i) as if, at the time of such separation, the Company had distributed to all holders of the Common Stock shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness, other assets or property of the Company or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.
(j) Other Adjustments. Whenever any provision of this Note requires the calculation of the Last Reported Sale Price or a function thereof over a period of multiple days (including the Stock Price for purposes of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change), the Company will make appropriate adjustments to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date, Effective Date or expiration date of the event occurs, at any time during such period.
(k) Restrictions on Adjustments. Except as a result of a reverse share split or a share combination subject to Section 8.05(a), and except for readjustments pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 8.05(a), readjustments pursuant to the penultimate paragraph of Section 8.05(b), readjustments pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 8.05(c)(i), readjustments pursuant to the penultimate paragraph of Section 8.05(c)(ii) and readjustments pursuant to Section 8.05(d), in no event will the Conversion Rate be adjusted downward pursuant to Section 8.05(a), (b), (c), (d) or (e). In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Note, the Conversion Rate will not be adjusted:
- 32 - |
(i) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Company’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan;
(ii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or options or rights to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of, or assumed by, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;
(iii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in the preceding clause and outstanding as of the date of the Issue Date;
(iv) upon the repurchase of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to an open-market share repurchase program or other buy-back transaction that is not a tender offer or exchange offer subject to Section 10.05(e);
(v) for a change in the par value of the Common Stock; or
(vi) for accrued and unpaid interest.
(l) Miscellaneous.
(i) Certain Definitions.
(II) For purposes of this Section 8.05, the number of shares outstanding at any time will include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock; but, so long as the Company does not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company, will not include shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company.
(III) For purposes of this Section 8.05, the term “Effective Date” will mean the first date on which the Common Stock trades on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, reflecting the relevant share split or share combination, as applicable.
(IV) For purposes of this Article 8, the term “Ex-Dividend Date” will mean the first date on which the shares of the Common Stock trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive the issuance, dividend or distribution in question.
- 33 - |
(ii) Notices. Whenever the Company adjusts (or is required to adjust) the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.05, the Company will promptly deliver to the Holder a written notice, which notice will include (i) a brief description of the event requiring adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.05; (ii) the effective time of such adjustment; (iii) the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after such adjustment is made; and (iv) a schedule explaining, in reasonable detail, how the Company calculated such adjustment.
(iii) All calculations and other determinations in respect of the Conversion Rate will be made by the Company to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share, with 5/100,000ths rounded upward.
Section 8.06 Voluntary Adjustments.
(a) Best Interest Increases. The Company may, from time to time, to the extent permitted by law and the applicable rules of any exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, increase the Conversion Rate by any amount if (i) the Board of Directors determines that such increase is in the best interest of the Company; (ii) such increase is in effect for a period of at least twenty (20) Business Days; and (iii) during such period, such increase is irrevocable.
(b) Tax-Related Increases. To the extent permitted by law and the applicable rules of any exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, the Company may (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate if the Board of Directors determines that such increase is advisable to avoid, or diminish, any income tax imposed on holders of the Common Stock or rights to purchase the Common Stock as a result of any dividend or distribution of shares (or rights to acquire shares) or similar event treated as such for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
(c) Notices. Whenever the Board of Directors determines that the Company will increase the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.06, the Company will deliver to the Holder notice of such increase at least fifteen (15) Business Days before such increase will take effect, which notice will state the increase to be made and the period during which such increase will be in effect.
Section 8.07 Adjustments Upon Certain Fundamental Changes.
(a) General. If a Fundamental Change (determined after giving effect to the penultimate paragraph of the definition thereof, but without regard to the exclusion in clause (b)(ii) of the definition thereof) occurs (a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change”), and the Holder converts this Note “in connection with” such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company will, in the circumstances described in this Section 8.07, increase the Conversion Rate for this Note by the number of additional shares of Common Stock (the “Additional Shares”) set forth in this Section 8.07. For purposes of this Section 8.07, a conversion of this Note will be deemed to be “in connection with” a Make-Whole Fundamental Change if the applicable Conversion Date occurs during the period from, and including, the effective date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change up to, and including, the Business Day immediately prior to the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (or, in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that would have been a Fundamental Change but for the exclusion in clause (b)(ii) of the definition thereof, the thirty fifth (35th) Trading Day immediately following the effective date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change). As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than the Business Day after the effective date of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company will notify the Holder of such effective date.
- 34 - |
(b) Determination of Additional Shares. The number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Conversion Rate will be increased if the Holder converts this Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change will be determined by reference to the table below, and will be based on the Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date and the Stock Price for such Make-Whole Fundamental Change. For any Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the “Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date” will mean the date on which such Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective.
(c) Adjustment of Stock Prices and Additional Shares. The Stock Prices set forth in the first row (i.e., the column headers) of the table below will be adjusted on each date on which the Conversion Rate must be adjusted pursuant to Section 8.05. The adjusted Stock Prices will equal the Stock Prices in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the adjustment giving rise to the share price adjustment; and (ii) the denominator of which is the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the adjustment. The numbers of Additional Shares set forth in the table below will be adjusted in the same manner, at the same time and for the same events for which the Conversion Rate is adjusted pursuant to Section 8.05.
(d) Additional Shares Table. The following table sets forth hypothetical Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Dates, Stock Prices and the number of Additional Shares by which the Conversion Rate will be increased per $1,000 principal amount of this Note for the Holder that converts this Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change having such Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date and Stock Price. In the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, the Conversion Rate will be increased by an equivalent pro rata number of shares.

(e) Use of Additional Shares Table. If the Stock Price and/or Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date for a Make-Whole Fundamental Change are not set forth in the table above, then:
(A) if the Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the table or the Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date is between two Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Dates in the table, the number of Additional Shares by which the Conversion Rate will be increased for the Holder that converts this Note in connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the numbers of Additional Shares set forth for the higher and lower Stock Prices listed in the table and the earlier and later Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Dates listed in the table, as applicable, based on a 365- or 366-day year, as applicable;
- 35 - |
(B) if the Stock Price is greater than $8.00, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table, no Additional Shares will be added to the Conversion Rate; and
(C) if the Stock Price is less than $0.60 per share, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table, no Additional Shares will be added to the Conversion Rate.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the Conversion Rate be increased as a result of this Section 8.07 to exceed 1,673.1918 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of this Note, subject to adjustment in the same manner, at the same time and for the same events for which the Conversion Rate must be adjusted as set forth in Section 8.05.
(f) Settlement or Conversion. If the Holder converts this Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company will settle such conversion by delivering Conversion Consideration in accordance with Section 8.03; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.03, if the Holder converts this Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b)(ii) of the definition of Fundamental Change in which the holders of the Common Stock receive only cash in consideration for their shares of Common Stock, the Company will settle such conversion by delivering to the Holder, on the third (3rd) Business Day immediately following the Conversion Date for this Note, an amount of cash, for each $1,000 principal amount of this Note so converted, equal to the product of (i) the Conversion Rate on the Conversion Date applicable to this Note (including any Additional Shares added to such Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 8.07) and (ii) the Stock Price for such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, or in the case of a principal amount or portion of a principal amount that is not a multiple of $1,000, an equivalent pro rata amount.
Section 8.08 Effect of Recapitalization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.
(a) General. If any of the following events occur:
(1) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of Common Stock (other than (x) a change only in par value, from par value to no par value or no par value to par value; or (y) changes resulting from a stock split or combination not involving the issuance of any other class or series of securities);
(2) any consolidation, merger, combination or similar transaction involving the Company;
(3) any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety; or
- 36 - |
(4) any statutory share exchange,
and, in each case, as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, or represent solely the right to receive, stock (including one or more series of the Common Stock), other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Common Stock Change Event” and such stock, other securities, other property or assets, the “Reference Property”, and the amount and kind of Reference Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock would be entitled to receive on account of such Common Stock Change Event, a “Reference Property Unit”), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, at the effective time of such transaction, the consideration due upon a conversion of this Note will be determined in the same manner as if each reference to any number of shares of Common Stock in this Article 8 were instead a reference to the same number of Reference Property Units. For these purposes, the Last Reported Sale Price of any Reference Property Unit or portion thereof that does not consist of a class of securities will be the fair value of such Reference Property Unit or portion thereof, as applicable, determined in good faith by the Company (or, in the case of cash denominated in U.S. dollars, the face amount thereof).
If the Reference Property consists of more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election), then the composition of the Reference Property Unit shall be deemed to be (a) the weighted average, per share of Common Stock, of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock that affirmatively make such an election; or (b) if no holders of the Common Stock affirmatively make such an election, the types and amounts of consideration actually received, per share of Common Stock, by the holders of the Common Stock. The Company shall notify the Holder of such weighted average (if applicable) as soon as practicable after such determination is made.
None of the foregoing provisions will affect the right of the Holder to convert this Note as set forth in Section 8.01 and 8.02 prior to the effective date of such Common Stock Change Event.
(b) Notices.
(i) As soon as practicable upon learning of the anticipated or actual effective date of any Common Stock Change Event, the Company will deliver written notice of such Common Stock Change Event to the Holder. Such Notice will include:
(A) a brief description of such Common Stock Change Event;
(B) the Conversion Rate in effect on the date the Company delivers such notice;
(C) the anticipated effective date for the Common Stock Change Event;
(D) that, on and after the effective date for the Common Stock Change Event, this Note will be convertible into Reference Property Units and cash in lieu of fractional Reference Property Units; and
- 37 - |
(E) the composition of the Reference Property Unit for such Common Stock Change Event.
(c) Successive Common Stock Change Events. If more than one Common Stock Change Event occurs, this Section 8.08 will apply successively to each Common Stock Change Event.
(d) Compliance Covenant. The Company will not become a party to any Common Stock Change Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 8.08.

Section 10.09 Legal Holidays. If the Maturity Date or any Interest Payment Date or Fundamental Change Repurchase Date is not a Business Day (which, solely for the purposes of any payment required to be made on this Note on any such date will be deemed not to include any day on which the office where the place of payment is authorized or required by law to close), then any action to be taken on such date need not be taken on such date, but may be taken on the immediately following Business Day, and no interest on such payment will accrue as a result of such delay.

Section 10.12 Withholding Taxes. The Holder agrees, and each beneficial owner of an interest in this Note, by its acquisition of such interest, is deemed to agree, that if the Company or other applicable withholding agent pays withholding taxes or backup withholding on behalf of the Holder or beneficial owner, as applicable, as a result of an adjustment to the Conversion Rate, then the Company or other applicable withholding agent, as applicable, may, at its option, set off such payments against payments of cash and shares of Common Stock on this Note.
Section 10.13 Amendment and Waiver. With the written consent of the holders of at least a majority of the Series then outstanding (including consents obtained in connection with a repurchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, notes of the Series), the Company, may amend the notes of the Series or waive compliance with any provision of the notes of the Series; provided, however, that, without the consent of each affected holder, no amendment to the notes of the Series, or waiver of any provision of the notes of the Series, may:
(a) reduce the principal amount of, or change the Maturity Date of, any note of the Series;
(b) reduce the rate of, or extend the stated time for payment of, interest on any note of the Series;
(c) reduce the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price of any note of the Series or change the time at which, or the circumstances under which, the notes of the Series may, or will be, repurchased;
(d) impair the right of any holder to institute suit for any payment on any note of the Series, including with respect to any consideration due upon conversion of a note of the Series;
(e) make any note of the Series payable in a currency other than that stated in such note;
- 40 - |
(f) make any change that impairs or adversely affects the conversion rights of any holder under Section 8 or otherwise reduces the number of shares of Common Stock, the amount of cash or any other property receivable by a holder upon conversion;
(g) change the ranking of the notes of the Series;
(h) make any change to any amendment, modification or waiver of a provision of a note of the Series that requires the consent of each affected holder of notes of the Series; or
(i) reduce the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of then outstanding notes of the Series whose holders must consent to an amendment or modification of any note of the Series or a waiver of a past Default.
It will not be necessary for the consent of the holders under this Section 10.13 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or modification, but it will be sufficient if such consent approves the substance of such proposed amendment or modification.

(d) Subject to applicable law, the Company will provide written notice to the Holders of the anticipated effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement at least ten (10) Business Days before such anticipated effective date.

Subject to Section 3(i), from and after the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company will, as promptly as is practicable after the date a Holder’s Notice and Questionnaire is delivered, but in no event after the tenth (10th) day after such date, (i) file with the Commission an amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or prepare and, if permitted or required by applicable law, file a supplement to the Prospectus or an amendment or supplement to any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that such Holder delivering such Notice and Questionnaire is named as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement and the related Prospectus, and so that such Holder is permitted to deliver such Prospectus to purchasers of Registrable Securities in accordance with applicable law (except that the Company will not be required to file more than one supplement or post-effective amendment in any thirty (30) day period in accordance with this Section 2(d)(i)) and, in the case of a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company will use its best efforts to cause such post-effective amendment to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is practicable; (ii) provide such Holder, upon request, copies of any documents filed pursuant to Section 2(d)(i); and (iii) notify such Holder as promptly as practicable after the effectiveness under the Securities Act of any post-effective amendment filed pursuant to Section 2(d)(i); provided, however, that if such Notice and Questionnaire is delivered during a Deferral Period, then the Company will so inform the Holder delivering such Notice and Questionnaire and will take the actions set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above upon expiration of the Deferral Period in accordance with Section 3(i). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company need not name any Holder that is not a Notice Holder as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus; provided, however, that any Holder that becomes a Notice Holder pursuant to this Section 2(d) (whether or not such Holder was a Notice Holder at the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement) will be named as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus in accordance with this Section 2(d).
- 4 - |
3. Registration Procedures. The following provisions will apply in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement.
(a) The Company will:
(i) furnish to the Purchasers and to counsel for the Notice Holders, not less than five (5) Business Days before the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of the Shelf Registration Statement and each amendment thereto and each amendment or supplement, if any, to the Prospectus (other than amendments and supplements that do nothing more than name Notice Holders and provide information with respect thereto and other than filings by the Company under the Exchange Act) and will use its best efforts to reflect in each such document, when so filed with the Commission, such comments as the Purchasers reasonably propose within three (3) Business Days of the delivery of such copies to the Purchasers; and
(ii) include information regarding the Notice Holders and the methods of distribution they have elected for their Registrable Securities provided to the Company in Notices and Questionnaires as necessary to permit such distribution by the methods specified therein.
(b) The Company will ensure that:
(i) the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto, and any Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, comply in all material respects with the Securities Act; and
(ii) the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto do not, when each becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.
(c) The Company will advise the Purchasers, the Notice Holders and any Underwriter that has provided in writing to the Company a telephone or email or other address for notices, and confirm such advice in writing, if requested (which notice pursuant to clauses (ii) to (v), inclusive, below will be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the Prospectus until the Company has remedied the basis for such suspension):
(i) when the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment thereto have been filed with the Commission and when the Shelf Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;
(ii) of any request by the Commission for any amendment or supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement or the Prospectus or for additional information;
(iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose;
(iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Common Stock included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and
- 5 - |
(v) of the happening of any event that requires any change in the Shelf Registration Statement or the Prospectus so that they do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.
(d) The Company will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement or the qualification of the securities therein for sale in any jurisdiction and, if issued, to obtain as soon as practicable the withdrawal thereof.
(e) Upon request, the Company will furnish, in electronic or physical form, to each Notice Holder, without charge, one copy of the Shelf Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including all material incorporated therein by reference, and, if a Notice Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits thereto (including exhibits incorporated by reference therein).
(f) During the Shelf Registration Period, the Company will promptly deliver to each Purchaser, each Notice Holder, and any sales or placement agents or underwriters acting on their behalf, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus (including the preliminary Prospectus, if any) relating to the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such person may reasonably request. Subject to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement, the Company consents to the use of the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the foregoing in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities.
(g) Before any offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company will arrange for the qualification of the Registrable Securities for sale under the laws of such U.S. jurisdictions as any Notice reasonably requests and will maintain such qualification in effect so long as required; provided, however, that in no event will the Company be obligated by this Agreement to qualify to do business or as a dealer of securities in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to taxation or service of process in suits in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. If, at any time during the Shelf Registration Period, the Registrable Securities are not “covered securities” within the meaning of Section 18 of the Securities Act, then the Company will arrange for such qualification (subject to the proviso of the immediately preceding paragraph) in each U.S. jurisdiction of residence of each Notice Holder.
(h) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by subsections (c)(ii) to (v), inclusive, above, the Company will promptly (or within the time period provided for by Section 3(i), if applicable) prepare a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or an amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or file any other required document so that the Shelf Registration Statement and the Prospectus will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.
- 6 - |
(i) Upon the occurrence or existence of any pending corporate development, public filings with the Commission or any other material event that, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, makes it appropriate to suspend the availability of the Shelf Registration Statement and the Prospectus, the Company will give notice (without notice of the nature or details of such events) to the Notice Holders that the availability of the Shelf Registration Statement is suspended and, upon receipt of any such notice, each Notice Holder agrees: (i) not to sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement until such Notice Holder receives copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus provided for in Section 3(i), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the Prospectus may be used; and (ii) to hold such notice in confidence. Except in the case of a suspension of the availability of the Shelf Registration Statement and the Prospectus solely as the result of filing a post-effective amendment or supplement to the Prospectus to add additional selling securityholders therein, the period during which the availability of the Shelf Registration Statement and any Prospectus is suspended (the “Deferral Period”) will not exceed an aggregate of (A) thirty (30) days (or, if the Shelf Registration Statement is on Form S-1 (or any successor thereto), sixty (60) days) in any calendar quarter; or (B) sixty (60) days (or, if the shelf registration statement is on Form S-1 (or any successor thereto), ninety (90) days) in any calendar year.
(j) The Company will comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and will make generally available to its securityholders an earnings statement (which need not be audited) satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act as soon as practicable after the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement and in any event no later than forty five (45) days after the end of the twelve (12) month period (or ninety (90) days, if such period is a fiscal year) beginning with the first month of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement.
(k) The Company may require each Holder of Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to the Company such information regarding the Holder and the distribution of such Registrable Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably require for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement in order to comply with the Securities Act. The Company may exclude from the Shelf Registration Statement the Registrable Securities of any Holder that unreasonably fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving a request from the Company for such information.
(l) Subject to Section 6, the Company will enter into customary agreements (including, if requested by the Majority Holders, an underwriting agreement in customary form that, for the avoidance of doubt, will provide for customary representations and warranties, legal opinions, comfort letters and other documents and certifications) and take all other necessary actions in order to expedite or facilitate the registration or the disposition of the Registrable Securities, and in connection therewith, if an underwriting agreement is entered into, cause the same to contain customary indemnification provisions and procedures.
(m) Subject to Section 6, for persons who are or may be “underwriters” with respect to the Registrable Securities within the meaning of the Securities Act and who make appropriate requests for information to be used solely for the purpose of taking reasonable steps to establish a due diligence or similar defense in connection with the proposed sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration, the Company will:
- 7 - |
(i) make reasonably available during business hours for inspection by the Holders, any Underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by the Holders or any such Underwriter all relevant financial and other records and pertinent corporate documents of the Company and its subsidiaries; and
(ii) cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees, accountants and auditors to supply all relevant information reasonably requested by the Holders or any such Underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement as is customary for similar due diligence examinations.
(n) In the event that any Broker-Dealer underwrites any Registrable Securities or participates as a member of an underwriting syndicate or selling group or “participates in an offering” (within the meaning of the FINRA Rules) thereof, whether as a Holder or as an underwriter, placement, sales agent or broker or dealer in respect thereof, or otherwise, the Company will, upon the reasonable request of such Broker-Dealer, comply with any reasonable request of such Broker-Dealer in complying with the FINRA Rules.
(o) The Company will use its best efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the offer and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement.
4. Registration Expenses. The Company will bear all expenses incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations under Sections 2 and 3. The Company will reimburse the Purchasers and the Holders for the reasonable fees and disbursements of one firm or counsel (which may be a nationally recognized law firm experienced in securities matters designated by the Majority Holders) to act as counsel for the Holders in connection therewith.
5. Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, the directors, officers, employees, Affiliates and agents of each Holder and each person who Controls any Holder against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Shelf Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or in any preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or caused by the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the party claiming indemnification specifically for inclusion therein.
- 8 - |
The Company also agrees to provide customary indemnities to, and to contribute as provided in Section 5(d) to Losses of, any underwriters of the Registrable Securities, their officers, directors and employees and each Person who Controls such underwriters to the same extent as provided herein with respect to the Holders.
(b) Each Holder of securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement (including each Purchaser that is a Holder, in such capacity) severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of the Company’s directors, each of the Company’s officers who sign the Shelf Registration Statement and each person who Controls the Company, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each such Holder, but only with reference to written information relating to such Holder furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be acknowledged by each Notice Holder that is not a Purchaser in such Notice Holder’s Notice and Questionnaire and will be in addition to any liability that any such Notice Holder may otherwise have.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 5 or notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 5, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b), as applicable, above unless and to the extent it has been materially prejudiced through the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses; and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b), as applicable, above. If any action is brought against an indemnified party and it has notified the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to appoint counsel (including local counsel) of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case, the indemnifying party will not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel, other than local counsel if not appointed by the indemnifying party, retained by the indemnified party or parties, except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel will be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel (including local counsel) to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party will have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party will bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party has reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party; (iii) the indemnifying party has not employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the indemnifying party has authorized the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party will not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one (1) separate law firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified persons. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and does not include an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any such indemnified party.
- 9 - |
(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 5 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, then each applicable indemnifying party will have a several, and not joint, obligation to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions) (collectively “Losses”) to which such indemnified party may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by such indemnifying party, on the one hand, and such indemnified party, on the other hand, from the offering of the Registrable Securities and the Shelf Registration Statement that resulted in such Losses; provided, however, that in no case will any underwriter be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or commission applicable to the securities purchased by such underwriter under the Shelf Registration Statement that resulted in such Losses. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, then the indemnifying party and the indemnified party will contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of such indemnifying party, on the one hand, and such indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions, or alleged statements or omissions, that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company will be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering of the Notes (before deducting expenses). Benefits received by any Holder will be deemed to be equal to the value of having the offer and sale of such Holder’s Registrable Securities registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement and hereunder. Benefits received by any underwriter will be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions, as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus relating to the Shelf Registration Statement that resulted in such Losses. Relative fault will be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the indemnifying party, on the one hand, or by the indemnified party, on the other hand, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission. The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5(d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 5, each person who Controls a Holder and each director, officer, employee, Affiliate and agent of such Holder will have the same rights to contribution as such Holder, and each person who Controls the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Shelf Registration Statement and each director of the Company will have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this Section 5(d).

(e) The provisions of this Section 5 will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Purchaser or Holder or the Company or any of the indemnified persons referred to in this Section 5, and will survive the sale by a Holder of securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement.
6. Underwritten Registrations.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will the method of distribution of Registrable Securities take the form of an underwritten offering without the prior written consent of the Company. Consent may be conditioned on waivers of any of the obligations in Section 3, 4 or 5.
(b) If any Registrable Securities are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the Managing Underwriters will be selected by the Company, subject to the prior written consent of the Majority Holders, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.
(c) No person may participate in any underwritten offering pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement unless such person: (i) agrees to sell such person’s Registrable Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements; and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.
7. Registration Defaults. If any of the following events shall occur (each, a “Registration Default”), then the Company will pay additional interest on the Notes (“Additional Interest”) as follows:
(a) if the Shelf Registration Statement has not been filed with the Commission and has not become effective on or before the one hundred and eightieth (180th) day after the Closing Date, then, commencing on the one hundred and eighty first (181st) day after the Closing Date, Additional Interest will accrue on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes at a rate of 0.25% per annum for the first 90 days beginning on, and including, such one hundred and eighty first (181st) day and 0.50% per annum thereafter;
- 11 - |
(b) if the Shelf Registration Statement has become effective but ceases to be effective or usable for the offer and sale of the Registrable Securities (other than in connection with (i) a Deferral Period; or (ii) as a result filing a post-effective amendment solely to add additional selling securityholders) at any time during the Shelf Registration Period and the Company does not cure the lapse of effectiveness or usability within ten (10) Business Days (or, if a Deferral Period is then in effect, within ten (10) Business Days after the expiration of such Deferral Period) (or, in the case of filing a post-effective amendment solely to add additional selling securityholders, within ten (10) Business Days after the expiration of the ten (10) day period referred to in Section 2(d), subject to the proviso therein), then Additional Interest will accrue on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes at a rate of 0.25% per annum for the first ninety (90) days beginning on, and including, the day following such tenth (10th) Business Day and 0.50% per annum thereafter;
(c) if the Company, through its omission, fails to name as a selling securityholder any Holder that had complied timely with its obligations hereunder in a manner to entitle such Holder to be so named in (i) the Shelf Registration Statement at the time it first became effective; or (ii) any Prospectus at the time it is filed with the Commission (or, if later, the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement), then Additional Interest will accrue on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes held by such Holder at a rate of 0.25% per annum for the first ninety (90) days beginning on, and including, the day following the effective date of such Shelf Registration Statement or the filing of such Prospectus, as applicable, and 0.50% per annum thereafter; and
(d) if the aggregate duration of Deferral Periods in any period exceeds the number of days permitted in respect of such period pursuant to Section 3(i), then, commencing on the day the aggregate duration of Deferral Periods in such period exceeds the number of days permitted in respect of such period, Additional Interest will accrue on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes at a rate of 0.25% per annum for the first ninety (90) days beginning on, and including, and including such date, and 0.50% per annum thereafter; provided, however, that (1) upon the filing and effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement (in the case of paragraph (a) above), (2) upon such time as the applicable Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective and usable for resales (in the case of paragraph (b) above), (3) upon such time as such Holder is permitted to sell its Registrable Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement and Prospectus in accordance with applicable law (in the case of paragraph (c) above), (4) upon the termination of the applicable Deferral Period (in the case of paragraph (d) above), or (5) in any case, upon the expiration of the Shelf Registration Period, Additional Interest will cease to accrue on account of the applicable Registration Default (it being understood that nothing in this sentence will prevent Additional Interest from accruing as a result of any other Registration Default during the Shelf Registration Period).
Any Additional Interest due pursuant to this Section 7 will be payable in cash in the same manner and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on the Notes. If any Note ceases to be outstanding during any period for which Additional Interest is accruing, the Company will prorate the Additional Interest payable with respect to such Note.
Additional Interest will not accrue on the Notes at a rate that exceeds 0.50% per annum in the aggregate and will not be payable under more than one clause above for any given period of time, except that if Additional Interest would be payable because of more than one Registration Default, but at a rate of 0.25% per annum under one Registration Default and at a rate of 0.50% per annum under the other, then the Additional Interest rate will be the higher rate of 0.50% per annum.
- 12 - |
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event will Additional Interest accrue on the shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Notes. However, if there exists a Registration Default with respect to the Registrable Securities on the Maturity Date, then, in addition to any Additional Interest otherwise payable, the Company will make a cash payment to each Holder of any outstanding Note as of the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately before the Maturity Date in an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the principal amount of such Note. For purposes of the preceding sentence, Notes that have been converted with a Conversion Date that is on or after January 15, 2021, and on or before the second (2nd) Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date will be considered to be outstanding. Accordingly, and for the avoidance of doubt, if a Registration Default exists on the Maturity Date, the payment described in the preceding two sentences will be payable on all Notes outstanding as of the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date and on all Notes converted with a conversion date that is on or after January 15, 2021, and on or before the second (2nd) Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date.
8. No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company has not entered into, and agrees not to enter into, any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the registration rights granted to the Holders herein.
9. Rule 144A and Rule 144. So long as any Registrable Securities remain outstanding, the Company will file the reports required to be filed by it under Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act and the reports required to be filed by it under the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the written request of any Holder of Registrable Securities, make publicly available other information so long as necessary to permit sales of such Holder’s Registrable Securities pursuant to Rules 144 and 144A of the Securities Act. The Company covenants that it will take such further action as any Holder of Registrable Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 144A (including, without limitation, satisfying the requirements of Rule 144A(d)(4)). Upon the written request of any Holder of Registrable Securities, the Company will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9, nothing in this Section 9 will be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities pursuant to the Exchange Act.
10. Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, qualified, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Company has obtained the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities (determined on an as-converted basis); provided, however, that no amendment, qualification, modification, supplement, waiver or consent with respect to Section 7 will be effective as against any Holder unless consented to in writing by such Holder; provided, further, that this Section 10 may not be amended, qualified, modified or supplemented, and waivers of or consents to departures from this Section 10 may not be given, unless the Company has obtained the written consent of each Purchaser and each Holder.
- 13 - |
11. Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder will be made in writing by hand-delivery, first-class mail, telex, telecopier, email or air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery:

(b) if to any Purchaser, initially at the address thereof set forth above; and
(c) if to the Company, initially at its address set forth in the Purchase Agreements.
All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when received.
12. Remedies. Each Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights provided to it herein or in the Purchase Agreement or granted by law, including recovery of liquidated or other damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby agrees to waive in any action for specific performance the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
13. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns, including, without the need for an express assignment or any consent by the Company thereto, subsequent Holders, and the indemnified persons referred to in Section 5. The Company hereby agrees to extend the benefits of this Agreement to any Holder, and any such Holder may specifically enforce the provisions of this Agreement as if an original party hereto.
14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
15. Headings. The section headings used herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation hereof.
16. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT THE TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
17. Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained herein, or the application thereof in any circumstances, is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of any such provision in every other respect and of the remaining provisions hereof will not be in any way impaired or affected thereby, it being intended that all of the rights and privileges of the parties will be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
- 14 - |
18. Common Stock Held by the Company, Etc. Whenever the consent or approval of Holders of a specified percentage of securities is required hereunder, securities held by the Company or its Affiliates (other than subsequent Holders thereof if such subsequent Holders are deemed to be Affiliates solely by reason of their holdings of such securities) will not be counted in determining whether such consent or approval was given by the Holders of such required percentage.
