Right to Maintain. If the percentage interest of the Purchaser in the Total Voting Power (as defined below) of the Company is reduced as a result of an issuance by the Company of Common Stock or of any other voting security of the Company (including any issuance following conversion of any security convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or any other voting security of the Company or upon exercise of any option, warrant or other right to acquire any Common Stock or any other voting security of the Company), the Company shall so notify the Purchaser by written dated notice within 10 calendar days after such issuance and shall offer to sell to the Purchaser, and if such offer is accepted within 10 calendar days of receipt of such offer, shall sell to the Purchaser, at a purchase price per share equal to the Average Market Price per share on the date of the Company's notice given pursuant to this Section 5, that number of shares of Common Stock which, if purchased by the Purchaser, would result in the Purchaser's retaining the percentage interest in the Total Voting Power of the Company in effect prior to such reduction of its interest, up to a percentage interest of Twenty-Five Percent (25%). For purposes of this Agreement, the Average Market Price of any security at any date shall be the average of the closing prices for a share of such security on the 10 consecutive trading days ending on the trading date last preceding the date of determination of such price, as reported on the Nasdaq National Market System ("NMS") or, if such closing prices shall not be reported on the NMS, the average of the mean between the closing bid and asked prices of a share of such security on such 10 consecutive trading days as so reported or, if such prices shall not be so reported, as the same shall be reported by the Nasdaq Over-the-Counter Market or, in all other cases, the value set in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors. The purchase and sale of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any offer made under this Section 5 that is accepted by the Purchaser shall take place at 10:00 a.m. on the business day following the expiration or early termination of all waiting periods imposed on such purchase and sale by the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇ Antitrust Improvements Act ("HSR Act") or, if no waiting period is imposed on such purchase and sale by the HSR Act, on the business day following the Purchaser's acceptance of such offer at the offices of the Company, or at such other time and place as the Company and the Purchaser may agree. The Company and the Purchaser will use their best efforts to comply with all federal and state laws and regulations and stock exchange listing requirements applicable to any purchase and sale of shares of Common Stock under this Section 5. The issuance of such shares shall be subject to compliance with applicable stock exchange or Nasdaq requirements and there shall not then be in effect any order enjoining or restraining such exercise on issuance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any issuance of securities or rights to acquire securities requiring the Company to make an offer under this Section 5 shall be for a number of securities representing less than 3% of the Total Voting Power of this Company in effect immediately following such issuance, the Company shall have the right to delay giving the notice otherwise required by this Section 5 until the earlier of (i) the next issuance which, together with all issuances after which notice was delayed pursuant to this sentence, shall represent an aggregate of 3% or more of the Total Voting Power of the Company then in effect or (ii) the 45th calendar day next preceding the last day of the Company's then fiscal year for accounting purpose and, thereupon, the Company shall give such notice with respect to all shares of Common Stock which it shall be obligated to offer to sell to the Purchaser and which shall not have been the subject of a previous notice pursuant to this Section 5. The right of delay set forth in this paragraph shall not apply to any insurance by the Company that results in the percentage of the Total Voting Power of the Company held by ADLT declining below twenty-two percent (22%).
