Change in Company Stock Sample Clauses

The "Change in Company Stock" clause defines how certain contractual rights or obligations are affected if there is a change in the company's stock structure, such as stock splits, mergers, or acquisitions. Typically, this clause outlines adjustments to stock options, warrants, or other equity-based compensation to ensure that the value and terms remain consistent despite changes in the underlying stock. Its core function is to protect both parties from unintended consequences or inequities that could arise from corporate actions affecting the company's stock, thereby maintaining fairness and predictability in the agreement.

  • Adjustment for Change in Capital Stock If the Company: (1) pays a dividend or makes a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of its Common Stock; (2) subdivides its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares; (3) combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares; (4) makes a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of its capital stock other than Common Stock; or (5) issues by reclassification of its Common Stock any shares of its capital stock; then the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such action and the number and kind of shares into which a Warrant is exercisable shall all be adjusted appropriately so that the holder of any Warrant thereafter exercised may receive the aggregate number and kind of shares of capital stock of the Company which he would have owned immediately following such action if such Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such action. The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification. If after an adjustment a holder of a Warrant upon exercise of it may receive shares of two or more classes of capital stock of the Company, the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine the allocation of the adjusted Exercise Price between the classes of capital stock. After such allocation, the exercise privilege and the Exercise Price of each class of capital stock shall thereafter be subject to adjustment on terms comparable to those applicable to Common Stock in this Section. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur.
