Registration on Request (i) At any time (x) after the third anniversary of the date of the Closing, upon the written request of Shareholders holding in the aggregate 40% of all Registrable Securities then held by Shareholders (assuming for this purpose exercise of all outstanding Warrants) or (y) after an initial public offering, upon the written request of Shareholders holding in the aggregate 10% of all Registrable Securities then held by Shareholders (assuming for this purpose the exercise of all outstanding Warrants) (such Shareholders being referred to as the “Requesting Holders”), the Requesting Holders may request that the Company either (i) effect the registration under the Securities Act for an underwritten public offering of all or part of the Registrable Securities held by them (the “Single Registration Option”), (ii) effect the registration of all or any of their Registrable Securities by filing a registration statement under the Securities Act (the “Shelf Registration Statement”) which provides for the sale by the Requesting Holders of their Registrable Securities from time to time in underwritten public offerings pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (the “Shelf Option”), or (iii) permit the sale of Registrable Securities that are already included in an effective Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to an underwritten public offering (the “Takedown Option”); provided, however, that the Requesting Holders may not elect the Shelf Option or the Takedown Option if the request thereunder is in connection with or would constitute an initial public offering. Upon receipt of such request, the Company will promptly give written notice to all other holders of Registrable Securities (the “Other Holders”) that a request for registration or for a takedown has been received. For a period of 10 days (or two Business Days in the case of a Takedown Option request) following receipt of such notice, the Other Holders may request that the Company also register their Registrable Securities (or include Registrable Securities in such takedown) and the Company may determine to include its authorized and unissued securities in such registration or takedown. The failure of any Other Holder to affirmatively indicate its intent to include its Registrable Securities in such registration or takedown shall be deemed a waiver of any right to so include such Registrable Securities in such registration statement or takedown. After the expiration of such 10-day period or two-Business Day period, as the case may be, the Company shall notify all holders of the number of Registrable Securities to be registered or included. Subject to the provisions of this Section 3, in the case of either the Single Registration Option or the Shelf Option, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the prompt registration under the Securities Act of (A) the Registrable Securities that the Requesting Holders and the Other Holders have requested the Company to register, and (B) all other securities that the Company has determined to register, and in connection therewith will prepare and file a registration statement under the Securities Act to effect such registration. Such registration statement shall be on such appropriate registration form of the Commission as shall be selected by the Company, and such selection shall be reasonably acceptable to the holders of a majority of the aggregate Registrable Securities to be sold by the Requesting Holders. Subject to the provisions of this Section 3, in the case of a Takedown Option, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities so requested to be included in such underwritten public offering and shall prepare and file any prospectus supplement reasonably necessary to effectuate a takedown. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not be required to file a registration statement or proceed with a takedown in any of the following situations:
(1) the Registrable Securities of Requesting Holders to be offered pursuant to such request do not have an aggregate offering price of at least U.S. $50 million in the case of an initial public offering or U.S. $25 million with respect to any subsequent offering (based on the then current market price or, in the case of an initial public offering, the aggregate offering price proposed to be set forth on the cover page of the registration statement);
(2) during any period (not to exceed 60 days with respect to each request) when the Company has determined to proceed with a public offering and, in the judgment of the managing underwriter thereof, the requested filing would have an adverse effect on the public offering; provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such public offering to be consummated;
(3) during any period (not to exceed 60 days with respect to each request) when the Company is in possession of material non-public information that the Board determines is in the best interest of the Company not to disclose publicly; or
(4) to the extent required by the managing underwriter in an underwritten public offering, during a period, not to exceed 180 days in the case of the initial public offering or 90 days in the case of all other offerings, following the effectiveness of any previous registration statement filed by the Company. The right of the Company not to file a registration statement or proceed with a takedown pursuant to paragraphs (2) and (4) above may not be exercised more than once in any twelve-month period, and pursuant to paragraph (3) above may not be exercised more than twice in any twelve-month period. Requesting Holders holding a majority of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered or included in a takedown may, at any time prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating to such registration or the execution of an underwriting agreement relating to such takedown, revoke such request, without liability to any of the other Requesting Holders or the Other Holders, by providing a written notice to the Company revoking such request.
Limitations on Requested Registration The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any such registration pursuant to this Section 2.1:
(i) prior to one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective date of the first registration statement filed by the Company covering an underwritten offering of any of its securities to the general public, and the shares so sold are listed on the NYSE or the NASDAQ Stock Market (the “Initial Public Offering”);
(ii) in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualifty to do business or to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification, or compliance, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act;
(iii) after the Company has effected two (2) such registrations pursuant to this Section 2.1, such registrations have been declared or ordered effective and the securities offered pursuant to such registrations have been sold; provided, however, that if the Initiating Holders withdraw from such registration following their initiation but prior to such registration’s effectuation, then such registration shall count as having been “effected” for purposes of this subsection;
(iv) during the period starting with the date thirty (30) days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on a date ninety (90) days after the effective date of, a Company-initiated registration; provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; or
(v) if the Initiating Holders propose to dispose of shares of Registrable Securities which may be immediately registered on Form S-3 pursuant to a request made under Section 2.3 hereof.
Notice of Registration Required The Engineer’s use of the Flying ‘T’ under this article shall be followed by the capital letter R enclosed within a circle (®) that gives notice that the Flying ‘T’ is registered in the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).
Notice of Certain Events Affecting Registration; Suspension of Right to Make an Advance The Company will immediately notify the Investor upon its becoming aware of the occurrence of any of the following events in respect of a registration statement or related prospectus relating to an offering of Registrable Securities: (i) receipt of any request for additional information by the SEC or any other Federal or state governmental authority during the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement for amendments or supplements to the registration statement or related prospectus; (ii) the issuance by the SEC or any other Federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) receipt of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; (iv) the happening of any event that makes any statement made in the Registration Statement or related prospectus of any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in the Registration Statement, related prospectus or documents so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any 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 not misleading, and that in the case of the related prospectus, it will not contain any 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 light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and (v) the Company's reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement would be appropriate; and the Company will promptly make available to the Investor any such supplement or amendment to the related prospectus. The Company shall not deliver to the Investor any Advance Notice during the continuation of any of the foregoing events.
Registration Requirement Notwithstanding anything else in this Section 6, no Warrants (including any Private Warrants) may be exercised unless at the time of exercise (i) a registration statement covering the Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise (other than Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise of any Private Warrant) is effective under the Act and (ii) a prospectus thereunder relating to the Warrant Shares (other than Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise of any Private Warrant) is current. The Company shall use its best efforts to have a registration statement in effect covering Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (other than Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise of any Private Warrant) from the date the Warrants become exercisable and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those Warrant Shares until the Warrants expire or are redeemed. In the event that, at the end of the Warrant Exercise Period, a registration statement covering the Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise (other than Warrant Shares to be issued upon exercise of any Private Warrant) is not effective under the Act, all the rights of holders hereunder shall terminate and all of the Warrants shall expire unexercised and worthless, and as a result purchasers of the Units will have paid the full Unit price solely for the share of Common Stock included in each Unit. In no event shall the Warrants be settled on a net cash basis nor shall the Company be required to issue unregistered shares upon the exercise of any Warrant that is not a Private Warrant.
