Covenants of Optionee Clause Samples

The "Covenants of Optionee" clause sets out the specific promises and obligations that the party granted an option (the optionee) must fulfill under the agreement. Typically, these covenants may require the optionee to maintain the property in good condition, comply with applicable laws, or refrain from transferring their rights without consent. By clearly outlining the optionee's responsibilities, this clause helps ensure that the property or subject matter of the option is preserved and that the interests of the option grantor are protected during the option period.

Any attempted transfer or other disposition in violation of this Section 4.01(a)(i) shall be null and void; or (ii) until the Expiration Date, take any other action that would in any way restrict, limit or interfere with the performance of Optionee's obligations hereunder or the transactions contemplated to be performed by Optionee hereunder.
Covenants of Optionee. 11.1 At the signing of this Agreement or as soon as possible thereafter, the Optionee will provide the Optionors a Quitclaim Deed and a Declaration of Value, in forms reasonably acceptable to the Optionors, which are to be held in trust by the lawyers for the Optionors, on commercially reasonable terms reasonably acceptable to the Optionee and released as follows: (a) to the Optionors in the event that the Option expires without exercise or is terminated by either party to this Agreement, in which case the Optionors may record the documents against the title to the Property; and (b) to the Optionee upon the exercise of the Option. 11.2 Further, this Agreement provides for the possibility of additional mining claims becoming subject to the Option in this Agreement and also the right of the Optionee to abandon some mining claims subject to the Option, in certain circumstances. As a result, the list of mining claims, at any time in the future, may be different from the list of mining claims as of the date of this Agreement. Therefore, the Optionee agrees that should the list of mining claims vary from the list of mining claims presently set out in this Agreement (which is also the same list in the current Quitclaim Deed), then as soon as the list of mining claims changes, the Optionee will complete and have duly executed a further Quitclaim Deed and a further Declaration of Value and will immediately deliver that Quitclaim Deed and Declaration of Value to the lawyers for the Optionors to be held in trust pursuant to Section 11.1 and the Optionors will cause the previous unused Quitclaim Deed and Declaration of Value to be marked as void and then will deliver the voided Quitclaim Deed and Declaration of Value to the lawyers for the Optionee. 11.3 Following the signing of this Agreement, the Optionee will: (a) in addition to and not in substitution for the obligations to keep the Property in good standing as set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, keep the Property in good standing for a period of one year following the date of the termination, expiration or exercise of the Option; (b) keep the Property free and clear of all liens, charges and encumbrances arising from its operations hereunder during the term of the Option and then for a period of six years following the date of the termination, expiration or exercise of the Option; (c) in the event that the laws in the State of Nevada or the federal laws of the United States of America allow or require the fili...
Covenants of Optionee. Optionee covenants as follows: (a) If Optionee has acquired the Securities for Twelve Million Dollars ($12,000,000) pursuant to the Option set forth in Section 2 (but not pursuant to the Right of First Refusal set forth in Section 9(b) above), and if during the two-year period following the closing of the Purchase Agreement governing the purchase of such Securities, Optionee sells all of the Securities for a purchase price per security that exceeds Twelve Million Dollars ($12,000,000), then Optionee hereby agrees to pay to Vicis, at the closing of such sale, an amount equal to Twenty Percent (20%) of the difference between [A] the purchase price of such securities, and [B] Twelve Million Dollars ($12,000,000). If the purchase price is payable partially in cash and partially in securities, a promissory note or other deferred purchase price, then Vicis’s participation payment under this Section 10(a) shall be pro-rated accordingly. By way of example, if Optionee decides to sell all of the Securities for a cash purchase price of $13,000,000, then Optionee shall pay Vicis $200,000, payable in cash at the closing. By way of further example, if Optionee decides to sell all of the Securities for a purchase price of $13,000,000, payable at the closing by (i) $7,000,000 in cash, (ii) the issuance of securities valued at $5,000,000, and (iii) the issuance of a note for $1,000,000, then Optionee shall pay Vicis $200,0000, payable at the closing (i) $107,692.31 in cash, (ii) the transfer of the securities issued at the closing having a value of $76,923.08, and (iii) an assignment of the principal of the promissory note equal to $15,384.61. (b) Without the written consent of Vicis, which Vicis may grant or withhold at Vicis's sole discretion, Optionee shall not effect any sale of some, but not all, of the Securities during the two-year period following the closing of the Purchase Agreement governing the purchase of such Securities. For the avoidance of doubt, Optionee shall be deemed to have sold Securities in the event that Optionee sells any security of the Company of the same class as any of the Securities during such two-year period. By way of example, any sale of shares of Common Stock by Optionee shall be deemed a sale of the shares of the Common Stock included among the Securities, regardless of whether such shares of Common Stock were actually acquired in conjunction with an acquisition of the Securities or otherwise.
