AMERICAN LEISURE HOLDINGS, INC.
A NEVADA CORPORATION
REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT
THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT, dated as of January 29, 2003 (the
"AGREEMENT"), is entered into by and among American Leisure Holdings, Inc., a
Nevada corporation (the "COMPANY"), and ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, and his successors and
assigns (the "INVESTORS"). Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the
meanings ascribed to them in the Securities Purchase Agreement (as hereinafter
defined).
WHEREAS, simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, the Investors are agreeing to purchase from the Company, pursuant to
the Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of even date (the "SECURITIES
PURCHASE AGREEMENT") 956 shares of the 4% Series C Convertible Redeemable
Preferred Stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share (the "SERIES C
PREFERRED STOCK") and 4,000 shares of its Common Stock, par value $0.001 per
share (the "PURCHASED COMMON STOCK"); and
WHEREAS, the Company desires to grant to the Investors the registration
rights set forth herein with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock (the "CONVERSION SHARES"), and the
shares of Common Stock issued as a dividend or other distribution with respect
to the Conversion Shares and the Purchased Common Stock (the "DISTRIBUTION
SHARES") (all the shares of the Series C Preferred Stock, the Purchased Common
Stock, the Conversion Shares, and the Distribution Shares, collectively and
interchangeably, are referred to herein as the "SECURITIES").
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto mutually agree as follows:
1. CERTAIN DEFINITIONS
As used herein the term "REGISTRABLE SECURITY" means the Conversion
Shares, the Purchased Common Stock and the Distribution Shares, until (i) the
Registration Statement (as defined below) has been declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "COMMISSION"), and all Securities have
been disposed of pursuant to the Registration Statement, (ii) all Securities
have been sold under circumstances under which all of the applicable conditions
of Rule 144 ("RULE 144") (or any similar provision then in force) under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT") are met, or (iii) such
time as, in the opinion of counsel to the Company reasonably satisfactory to the
Investors and upon delivery to the Investors of such executed opinion, all
Securities may be sold without any time, volume or manner limitations pursuant
to Rule 144 (or any similar provision then in effect). In the event of any
merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization or other change in
corporate structure affecting the Common Stock, such adjustment shall be deemed
to be made in the definition of "Registrable Security" as is appropriate in
order to prevent any dilution or enlargement of the rights granted pursuant to
this Agreement. As used herein the term "HOLDER" means any Person owning or
1
having the right to acquire Registrable Securities or any assignee thereof in
accordance with Section 10 hereof. As used herein "TRADING DAY" shall mean any
business day on which the market on which the Common Stock trades is open for
business.
2. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER
Each of the Investors acknowledges and understands that prior to the
registration of the Securities as provided herein, the Securities are
"restricted securities" as defined in Rule 144. Each of the Investors
understands that no disposition or transfer of the Securities may be made by any
of the Investors in the absence of (i) an opinion of counsel to such Investor,
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such transfer
may be made without registration under the Securities Act or (ii) such
registration.
3. COMPLIANCE WITH REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
With a view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule
144 or any other similar rule or regulation of the Commission that may at any
time permit the holders of the Securities to sell securities of the Company to
the public pursuant to Rule 144, the Company agrees to:
(a) comply with the provisions of paragraph (c)(1) of Rule 144;
(b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and
other documents required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 13
or 15(d) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "EXCHANGE ACT") by
companies subject to either of such sections, irrespective of whether the
Company is then subject to such reporting requirements; and
(c) Upon request by any Holder or the Company's transfer agent, the
Company shall provide an opinion of counsel, which opinion shall be reasonably
acceptable to the Holder and/or the Company's transfer agent, that such Holder
has complied with the applicable conditions of Rule 144 (or any similar
provision then in force).
4. REGISTRATION RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO THE REGISTRABLE SECURITIES
(a) If, at any time the Company shall determine to register under the
Securities Act (including pursuant to a demand of any stockholder of the Company
exercising registration rights) any of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock,
of Series C Preferred Stock (other than in connection with a merger or other
business combination transaction that has been consented to in writing by
holders of the Securities, or pursuant to Form S-8 when such filing has been
consented to in writing by holders of the Securities), it shall send to each
Holder written notice of such determination and, if within 20 days after receipt
of such notice, such Holder shall so request in writing, the Company shall
include in such registration statement all or any part of the Registrable
Securities that such Holder requests to be registered. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if, in connection with any offering involving an underwriting of the
Common Stock to be issued by the Company, the managing underwriter shall impose
a limitation on the number of shares of the Common Stock included in any such
registration statement because, in such underwriter's judgment, such limitation
2
is necessary based on market conditions: (a) if the registration statement is
for a public offering of common stock on an underwritten "firm commitment" basis
with gross proceeds to the Company of at least $25,000,000 (a "QUALIFIED PUBLIC
OFFERING"), the Company may exclude, to the extent so advised by the
underwriters, the Registrable Securities from the underwriting; provided,
however, that if the underwriters do not entirely exclude all shares of persons
other than the Company from such Qualified Public Offering, the Company shall be
obligated to include in such registration statement, with respect to the
requesting Holder, only an amount of Registrable Securities equal to the product
of (i) the number of Registrable Securities that remain available for
registration after the underwriter's cutback and (ii) such Holder's percentage
of ownership of all the Registrable Securities then outstanding (on an
as-converted basis) (the "REGISTRABLE PERCENTAGE"); and (b) if the registration
statement is not for a Qualified Public Offering, the Company shall be obligated
to include in such registration statement, with respect to the requesting
Holder, only an amount of Registrable Securities equal to the product of (i) the
number of Registrable Securities that remain available for registration after
the underwriter's cutback and (ii) such Holder's Registrable Percentage;
provided, however, that the aggregate value of the Registrable Securities to be
included in such registration may not be so reduced to less than 30% of the
total value of all securities included in such registration. If any Holder
disapproves of the terms of any underwriting referred to in this paragraph, it
may elect to withdraw there from by written notice to the Company and the
underwriter. No incidental right under this paragraph shall be construed to
limit any registration required under the other provisions of this Agreement.
5. COOPERATION WITH COMPANY
Each Holder will cooperate with the Company in all respects in connection
with this Agreement, including timely supplying all information reasonably
requested by the Company (which shall include all information regarding such
Holder and proposed manner of sale of the Registrable Securities required to be
disclosed in any Registration Statement) and executing and returning all
documents reasonably requested in connection with the registration and sale of
the Registrable Securities and entering into and performing its obligations
under any underwriting agreement, if the offering is an underwritten offering,
in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter or underwriters of
such underwritten offering. Nothing in this Agreement shall obligate any Holder
to consent to be named as an underwriter in any Registration Statement. The
obligation of the Company to register the Registrable Securities shall be
absolute and unconditional as to those Registrable Securities which the
Commission will permit to be registered without naming any Holder as
underwriters. Any delay or delays caused by a Holder by failure to cooperate as
required hereunder shall not constitute a Registration Default as to such
Holder, unless such delay exceeds 45 days.
6. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES
If and whenever the Company is required by any of the provisions of this
Agreement to effect the registration of any of the Registrable Securities under
the Securities Act, the Company shall (except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement), as expeditiously as possible, subject to the Holders' assistance and
cooperation as reasonably required with respect to each Registration Statement:
3
(a) (i) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
supplements to the Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective and
to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the sale or
other disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration
Statement whenever any of the Holder shall desire to sell or otherwise dispose
of the same (including prospectus supplements with respect to the sales of
Registrable Securities from time to time in connection with a registration
statement pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act) and (ii)
take all lawful action such that each of (A) the Registration Statement and any
amendment thereto does not, when it 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, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and (B) the prospectus
forming part of the Registration Statement, and any amendment or supplement
thereto, does not at any time during the Registration Period include 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, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
(b) (i) prior to the filing with the Commission of any Registration
Statement (including any amendments thereto) and the distribution or delivery of
any prospectus (including any supplements thereto), provide draft copies thereof
to the Holders as required by Section 4(c) and reflect in such documents all
such comments as the Holders (and their counsel) reasonably may propose; (ii)
furnish to each of the Holders such numbers of copies of a prospectus including
a preliminary prospectus or any amendment or supplement to any prospectus, as
applicable, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and such
other documents, as any of the Holders may reasonably request in order to
facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Registrable Securities
owned by such Holder; and (iii) provide to the Holders copies of any comments
and communications from the Commission relating to the Registration Statement,
if lawful to do so;
(c) register and qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the
Registration Statement under such other securities or blue sky laws of such
jurisdictions as any of the Holders shall reasonably request (subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 4(c) above), and do any and all other acts and
things which may be necessary or advisable to enable such Holder to consummate
the public sale or other disposition in such jurisdiction of the Registrable
Securities owned by such Holder;
(d) list such Registrable Securities on the markets where the Common
Stock of the Company is listed as of the effective date of the Registration
Statement, if the listing of such Registrable Securities is then permitted under
the rules of such markets;
(e) notify the Holders at any time when a prospectus relating thereto
covered by the Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the
Securities Act, of the happening of any event of which it has knowledge as a
result of which the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, as then
in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing, and the
Company shall prepare and file a curative amendment under Section 6(a) as
4
quickly as reasonably possible and during such period, the Holders shall not
make any sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement;
(f) after becoming aware of such event, notify each of the Holders
who holds Registrable Securities being sold (or, in the event of an underwritten
offering, the managing underwriters) of the issuance by the Commission of any
stop order or other suspension of the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement at the earliest possible time and take all lawful action to effect the
withdrawal, rescission or removal of such stop order or other suspension;
(g) cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation
and delivery of certificates for the Registrable Securities to be offered
pursuant to the Registration Statement and enable such certificates for the
Registrable Securities to be in such denominations or amounts, as the case may
be, as any of the Holders reasonably may request and registered in such names as
any of the Holders may request; and, within three Trading Days after a
Registration Statement which includes Registrable Securities is declared
effective by the Commission, deliver and cause legal counsel selected by the
Company to deliver to the transfer agent for the Registrable Securities (with
copies to the Holders) an appropriate instruction and, to the extent necessary,
an opinion of such counsel;
(h) take all such other lawful actions reasonably necessary to
expedite and facilitate the disposition by the Holders of their Registrable
Securities in accordance with the intended methods therefor provided in the
prospectus which are customary for issuers to perform under the circumstances;
(i) in the event of an underwritten offering, promptly include or
incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to the
Registration Statement such information as the managers reasonably agree should
be included therein and to which the Company does not reasonably object and make
all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment
as soon as practicable after it is notified of the matters to be included or
incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and
(j) maintain a transfer agent and registrar for the Common Stock;
(k) pay all fees, disbursements and out-of-pocket expenses and costs
incurred by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of the
Registration Statement under this Section 6 and in complying with applicable
securities and blue sky laws (including, without limitation, all attorneys' fees
of the Company. The Holders shall bear the cost of underwriting and/or brokerage
discounts, counsel for the Holders, fees and commissions, if any, applicable to
the Registrable Securities being registered. The Holders and their counsel shall
have a reasonable period, not to exceed 15 Trading Days, to review the proposed
Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, prior to filing with the
Commission, and the Company shall provide the Holders with copies of any comment
letters received from the Commission with respect thereto within two Trading
Days of receipt thereof. The Company shall qualify any of the Registrable
Securities for sale in such states as the Holders reasonably designate and shall
furnish indemnification in the manner provided in Section 7 hereof. However, the
Company shall not be required to qualify in any state which will require an
escrow or other restriction relating to the Company and/or the Holders, or which
will require the Company to qualify to do business in such state or require the
5
Company to file therein any general consent to service of process. The Company
at its expense will supply each of the Investors with copies of the applicable
Registration Statement and the prospectus included therein and other related
documents in such quantities as may be reasonably requested by any of the
Investors.
7. INDEMNIFICATION
(a) To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless each of the Holders, each person, if any, who
controls any of the Holders within the meaning of the Securities Act, and each
director, officer, shareholder, employee, agent, representative, accountant or
attorney of the foregoing (each of such indemnified parties, a "DISTRIBUTING
INVESTOR") against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several
(which shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, include, but not be limited
to, all reasonable costs of defense and investigation and all reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses), to which the Distributing Investor may become
subject, under the Securities Act 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 any material fact
contained in any Registration Statement, or any related final prospectus or
amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission
or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided,
however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent, and
only to the extent, that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of
or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission made in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus,
final prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon, and in
conformity with, written information furnished to the Company by the
Distributing Investor, its counsel, or affiliates, specifically for use in the
preparation thereof or (ii) by such Distributing Investor's failure to deliver
to the purchaser a copy of the most recent prospectus (including any amendments
or supplements thereto). This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any
liability which the Company may otherwise have.
(b) To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Distributing
Investor agrees that it will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, and each
officer and director of the Company or person, if any, who controls the Company
within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (which shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, include, but not
be limited to, all reasonable costs of defense and investigation and all
reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) to which the Company or any such
officer, director or controlling person may become subject under the Securities
Act 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 any material fact contained in any Registration
Statement, or any related final prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto,
or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that such
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was
made in such Registration Statement, final prospectus or amendment or supplement
thereto in reliance upon, and in conformity with, written information furnished
to the Company by such Distributing Investor, its counsel or affiliates,
specifically for use in the preparation thereof. This indemnity agreement will
6
be in addition to any liability which the Distributing Investor may otherwise
have under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the
Distributing Investor shall be liable under this Section 7(b) for only that
amount as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Distributing Investor as a
result of the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration
Statement.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section
7 of notice of the commencement of any action against such indemnified party,
such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against
the indemnifying party under this Section 7, notify the indemnifying party in
writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the
indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability
which it may have to any indemnified party except to the extent the failure of
the indemnified party to provide such written notification actually prejudices
the ability of the indemnifying party to defend such action. In case any such
action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the
indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be
entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with
any other indemnifying party similarly notified, assume the defense thereof,
subject to the provisions herein stated and after notice from the indemnifying
party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense
thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party
under this Section 7 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by
such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than
reasonable costs of investigation, unless the indemnifying party shall not
pursue the action to its final conclusion. The indemnified parties shall have
the right to employ one or more separate counsel in any such action and to
participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel
shall not be at the expense of the indemnifying party if the indemnifying party
has assumed the defense of the action with counsel reasonably satisfactory to
the indemnified party unless (i) the employment of such counsel has been
specifically authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, or (ii) the named
parties to any such action (including any interpleaded parties) include both the
indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall
have been advised by its counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses
available to the indemnifying party different from or in conflict with any legal
defenses which may be available to the indemnified party or any other
indemnified party (in which case the indemnifying party shall not have the right
to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party, it
being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall, in connection with
any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in
the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or
circumstances, be liable only for the reasonable fees and expenses of one
separate firm of attorneys for the indemnified party, which firm shall be
designated in writing by the indemnified party). No settlement of any action
against an indemnified party shall be made without the prior written consent of
the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld so long
as such settlement includes a full release of claims against the indemnified
party.
All fees and expenses of the indemnified party (including reasonable
costs of defense and investigation in a manner not inconsistent with this
Section and all reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) shall be paid to the
indemnified party, as incurred, within 10 Trading Days of written notice thereof
to the indemnifying party; provided, that the indemnifying party may require
such indemnified party to undertake to reimburse all such fees and expenses to
the extent it is finally judicially determined that such indemnified party is
not entitled to indemnification hereunder.
7
8. CONTRIBUTION
In order to provide for just and equitable contribution under the
Securities Act in any case in which (i) the indemnified party makes a claim for
indemnification pursuant to Section 7 hereof but is judicially determined (by
the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and
the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that
such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact
that the express provisions of Section 7 hereof provide for indemnification in
such case, or (ii) contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the
part of any indemnified party, then the Company and the applicable Distributing
Investor shall contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or
liabilities to which they may be subject (which shall, for all purposes of this
Agreement, include, but not be limited to, all reasonable costs of defense and
investigation and all reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses), in either such
case (after contribution from others) on the basis of relative fault as well as
any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state
a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand
or the applicable Distributing Investor on the other hand, and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Distributing Investor
agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this
Section 8 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of
allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred
to in this Section 8. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a
result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) referred to above in this Section 8 shall be deemed to include any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in
connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. No person
guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of
the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was
not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 8, in no event
shall (i) any of the Distributing Investors be required to undertake liability
to any person under this Section 8 for any amounts in excess of the dollar
amount of the proceeds received by such Distributing Investor from the sale of
such Distributing Investor's Registrable Securities (after deducting any fees,
discounts and commissions applicable thereto) pursuant to any Registration
Statement under which such Registrable Securities are registered under the
Securities Act and (ii) any underwriter be required to undertake liability to
any person hereunder for any amounts in excess of the aggregate discount,
commission or other compensation payable to such underwriter with respect to the
Registrable Securities underwritten by it and distributed pursuant to such
Registration Statement.
9. NOTICES
Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing
(unless otherwise specified herein) and shall be effective upon personal
delivery, via facsimile (upon receipt of confirmation of error-free transmission
and mailing a copy of such confirmation, postage prepaid by certified mail,
return receipt requested) or two business days following deposit of such notice
8
with an internationally recognized courier service, with postage prepaid and
