1.9                               The Company must use its best efforts to satisfy the Conditions Precedent by the earlier of the Subscription Date and 30 November 2014 (or such later date as is agreed by the Majority of Noteholders and the Company) (Sunset Date).

 

1.10                        Each party must promptly notify the other parties in writing if it becomes aware that a Condition Precedent is:

 

1.10.1                                      satisfied; or

 

1.10.2                                      incapable of being satisfied by the earlier of the Subscription Date and the Sunset Date.

The Conditions Precedent in clauses 1.8.1, 1.8.2 and 1.8.7 are for the benefit of the Company and the Noteholders (and can only be waived by the Company and all Noteholders). Where a Condition Precedent is to be waived by the Noteholders it may only be waived with the consent of the majority of the Noteholders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld).

 

1.12                        If:

 

1.12.1                                      a party has given a notice that a Condition Precedent is incapable of being satisfied by the earlier of the Subscription Date and the Sunset Date; or

 

1.12.2                                      the Conditions Precedent are not satisfied by 5.00pm (Sydney time) on the earlier of the Subscription Date and the Sunset Date,

 

any party may terminate this Deed (other than clauses 15, 16, 17, 24, 26, 28 and 29) by providing five Business Days prior notice in writing to the other parties.

 

1.13                        Upon satisfaction or waiver of all of the Conditions Precedent, each Noteholder must promptly, and in any event within two Business Days, send the Company a notice stating that:

 

1.13.1                                      all of the Conditions Precedent have been satisfied or waived; and

1.14.1                                      a completed Note and Option Application Form, applying for its Note Allocation and Option Allocation under the Prospectus; and

1.15.2                                      register the Noteholders as the holders of the Notes and the Options in the Registers described in clause 4; and

 

1.15.3                                      give to each Noteholder the Certificates required by clause 3.

 

Interdependence

 

1.16                        The respective obligations of the Noteholders and the Company under clauses 1.14 and 1.15 are interdependent and all actions required to be performed on the Subscription Date will be taken to have occurred simultaneously on the Subscription Date.

Mandatory redemption

 

6.1                               The Company must notify the Noteholder of the occurrence of an Event of Default as soon as reasonably practicable (and in any event within five Business Days of such occurrence).

 

6.2                               On the earlier of:

 

6.2.1                                             one Business Day after an Acceleration Event; and

 

6.2.2                                             the Maturity Date,

 

and provided that a Note has not otherwise been Converted in accordance with clauses 6.9 to 6.13 (inclusive) or redeemed in accordance with clause 6.3 or clause 6.4 the Company must, in respect of all of the Notes then on issue, redeem such Notes for the Redemption Amount, which will become immediately due and payable, and pay the relevant Redemption Amount to the relevant Noteholder on the date of that redemption and the Notes so redeemed will be cancelled and incapable of being Converted.

 

Noteholders’ optional redemption

 

6.3                               At any time on or prior to the date that is 30 calendar days prior to the date which is 26 months from the Subscription Date, a Noteholder may give the Company an irrevocable notice in writing electing to redeem all or some of the Notes held by the Noteholder for the Redemption Amount (Optional Redemption Notice). Upon receipt by the Company of such Optional Redemption Notice, and provided that a Note has not otherwise been Converted in accordance with clauses 6.9 to 6.13 (inclusive) or been redeemed or cancelled, the Company must, in respect of such Notes, redeem such Notes for the Redemption Amount, which will become immediately due and payable on the date 26 months from the Subscription Date (Optional Redemption Date), and pay the relevant Redemption Amount to the Noteholder on the date 26 months from the Subscription Date and the Notes so redeemed will be cancelled and incapable of being Converted.

 

Change of Control Event

 

6.4                               Following the occurrence of a Change of Control Event, each Noteholder may (within the period of 5 Business Days following a Change of Control Event) give the Company an irrevocable notice in writing electing that the Company redeem all or any part of their Notes (Change of Control Redemption Notice) for the greater of the Redemption Amount and the Cash Settlement Amount (Change of Control Redemption Amount).  Upon receipt by the Company of such Change of Control Redemption Notice, and provided that a Note has not otherwise been Converted in accordance with clauses 6.9 to 6.13 (inclusive) or been redeemed or cancelled, the Company must, in respect of such Notes, redeem such Notes for and pay the Change of Control Redemption Amount on the day falling 8 Business Days after the Change of Control Event and the Notes so redeemed will be cancelled and incapable of being Converted.

 

Right to require dissemination of information

 

6.5                               During the Conversion Period, the Company must give to ASX (or such other Alternative Stock Exchange as applicable) all non-public information regarding the results of the Group’s clinical trials that has been made known to any Noteholder, and that a reasonable person

 

8











 

would expect to have a material effect on the price or value of Shares or CDIs (so as to enable Noteholders to freely Convert Notes or trade in Shares or CDIs):

 

6.5.1                                             within 5 Business Days of a request from a Noteholder at any time between the announcement or public proposal of a potential or proposed Change of Control Event and the completion of that Change of Control Event (unless there is an announcement that the Change of Control Event will not proceed); or

 

6.5.2                                             otherwise no less than twice a year at or within 2 Business Days of each of the EuroPCR cardiology conference and the Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics conference or such other conferences or events as agreed by the Company with the Majority of Noteholders.

 

6.6                               During the Conversion Period, within 5 Business Days of a request from a Noteholder, the Company must give to ASX (or such other Alternative Stock Exchange as applicable) all non-public information regarding the Company that has been made known to any Noteholder (other than any information regarding the results of the Group’s clinical trials), and that a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or value of Shares or CDIs (so as to enable Noteholders to freely Convert Notes or trade in Shares or CDIs).

 

6.7                               At any time while any division or department of any Noteholder is in possession of any non-public information provided by the Company (in accordance with clause 14.1.9 or otherwise) and prior to the market update to ASX (or such other Alternative Stock Exchange as applicable) under clause 6.5 or 6.6 (as applicable), such division or department may not transfer, sell, purchase or otherwise trade in any Notes or Options or any Shares or CDIs issued on conversion or exercise of the Notes and Options.

 

6.8                               For the avoidance of doubt, the restriction in clause 6.7 will apply to a Noteholder only so long as that Noteholder hold Notes.

 

Conversion by a Noteholder

 

6.9                               At any time during the Conversion Period, a Noteholder may give the Company an irrevocable notice in the form of a Conversion Notice electing to Convert all or some of the Notes held by the Noteholder and specifying the number of Notes the Noteholder is electing to Convert.

 

6.10                        Within one Business Day after receipt by the Company of a Conversion Notice under clause 6.9 and provided that an Event of Default is not then continuing, the Company may give the Noteholder a notice electing to redeem the Notes the subject of the Conversion Notice for the Cash Settlement Amount.  If the Company gives such a notice, it must, in respect of the Notes the subject of a Conversion Notice, redeem the Notes for the Cash Settlement Amount, which will become due and payable 21 Trading Days following such notice, and pay that Cash Settlement Amount to the Noteholder following which the Notes will be cancelled and incapable of being Converted.  This clause 6.10 shall not apply in respect of a deemed Conversion Notice under clause 6.14.

 

6.11                        Subject to clause 24, no later than two Business Days after receipt by the Company of a Conversion Notice (the Conversion Date), the Company must, provided the Company has not given a notice in accordance with clause 6.10:

 

6.11.1                                      Convert each Note held by the Noteholder and specified in the Conversion Notice and:

 

9











 

6.11.1.1                            allot and issue to CDN the number of Shares calculated in accordance with clause 6.13; and

 

6.11.1.2                            procure that CDN allots and issues to the Noteholder the number of CDIs representing the Shares issued to CDN under clause 6.11.1.1 (which, at the date of this Deed, is 10 CDIs per Share);

 

6.11.2                                      enter CDN into the Company’s register of members as the holder of the relevant number of Shares and procure that CDN enters the Noteholder into the register of CDI holders as the holder of the relevant number of CDIs;

 

6.11.3                                      deliver to the Noteholder (or procure the delivery of) a holding statement showing the Noteholder as the holder of the relevant number of CDIs;

 

6.11.4                                      apply for and use its reasonable efforts to obtain Official Quotation of the relevant number of CDIs (and the underlying Shares) on ASX as soon as practicable on such terms and conditions as are usual for quotation of securities on ASX; and

 

6.11.5                                      notwithstanding the issue of the Prospectus, to the extent that any action is required to be taken in order to facilitate the on-sale of Shares or CDIs by the Noteholder, to take such action (including, where required, issuing a further prospectus, cleansing notice or disclosure document in respect of the Shares or CDIs) to ensure that such Shares or CDIs will at all times thereafter be freely tradable on ASX.

 

6.12                        The Shares and CDIs issued under clause 6.11.1 will rank pari passu with the Shares and CDIs on issue at Conversion and will be issued free from all encumbrances.

 

6.13                        The number of Shares (represented by CDIs) issuable upon Conversion of any Note shall be determined by dividing the Face Value of the Note Converted (translated into Australian dollars at the Prevailing Rate on the Subscription Date) by the Conversion Price in effect on the Conversion Date.

 

6.14                        The Noteholder shall automatically be deemed to have given the Company an irrevocable Conversion Notice electing to Convert all of the Notes held by the Noteholder in accordance with clauses 6.9 to 6.13 (inclusive) in the event that both of:

 

6.14.1                                      the average daily VWAP of the Company’s CDIs as traded on the ASX equals or exceeds A$0.60 for a period of 20 consecutive Trading Days (or where CDIs are no longer quoted on ASX, the VWAP of the Company’s Shares as traded on any Relevant Stock Exchange for a period of 20 consecutive Trading Days equal or exceeds the equivalent of A$6.00 at the Prevailing Rate as at the end of the 20 consecutive Trading Day Period); and

 

6.14.2                                      the CE Mark Approval Event has occurred.

 

Certificates

 

6.15                        On redemption or Conversion of the Notes (as the case may be), the relevant Noteholder must deliver the Certificate(s) for the relevant Note(s) to the Company for cancellation. Cancellation of any Note following its redemption or Conversion will be effected by a reduction in the principal amount of the Notes in the Note Register.

7.                                      ADJUSTMENTS TO CONVERSION PRICE

 

Undertaking Regarding Conversion

 

7.1                               The Company agrees that it will not take any action (directly or indirectly), and will use its best efforts to ensure that no action is taken, that would otherwise result in the inability to issue CDIs or Shares on Conversion. The Company further agrees that it will not take any action that would result in a reclassification of its capital stock.

 

Adjustment for reorganisation of issued capital

 

7.2                               If the Company at any time after the Subscription Date and before the Maturity Date:

 

7.2.1                                             effects a subdivision of its Shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before that subdivision will be proportionately decreased so that the number of Shares to be issued on Conversion of a Note is increased in proportion to such increase in the aggregate number of Shares which are on issue after the subdivision; or

 

7.2.2                                             combines its issued Shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before the combination will be proportionately increased so that the number of Shares to be issued on Conversion of a Note is decreased in proportion to such decrease in the aggregate number of Shares on issue following the combination.

 

Any adjustment under this clause 7.2 will become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective.

 

Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions

 

7.3                               If the Company at any time after the Subscription Date and before the Maturity Date makes or issues, or fixes a record date for the determination of Securityholders entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable on the Shares in additional Shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately before such event will be decreased as of the time of such issue or, in the event that a record date has been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Conversion Price then in effect by a fraction:

 

7.3.1                                             the numerator of which will be the total number of Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issue or the close of business on such record date; and

 

7.3.2                                             the denominator of which will be the total number of Shares on issue immediately prior to the time of such issue or the close of business on such record date plus the number of Shares issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution.

 

Notwithstanding the above if the record date has been fixed and a dividend is not fully paid or if a distribution is not fully made on the date fixed for the payment of the distribution, the Conversion Price will be recalculated accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter the Conversion Price will be adjusted pursuant to this clause 7.3 as at the time of actual payment of the dividend or distribution.

 

Adjustments for Other Dividends and Distributions

 

7.4                               If the Company at any time after the Subscription Date and before the Maturity Date makes or issues, or fixes a record date for the determination of Securityholders entitled to receive, a

 

11











 

dividend or other distribution payable in Securities of the Company (other than a distribution of Shares in respect of outstanding Shares), each Noteholder will receive, simultaneously with the distribution to Securityholders, a dividend or other distribution of such Securities in an amount equal to the amount of Securities that a Noteholder would have received if they had converted all of their Notes into Shares immediately before the date of such event.

 

Sale of Shares below market price

 

7.5                               As at the date of this Deed, each Share issued to CDN is represented by 10 CDIs.  In the event that the ratio of CDIs to Shares is adjusted (whether pursuant to an adjustment similar to those provided in clauses 7.2. 7.3 or 7.4 or otherwise) then the number of CDIs issued in respect of Shares issued on Conversion or deemed to be issued under this clause 7 will be adjusted to equal the then effective ratio of CDIs to Shares.  The adjustments to the Conversion Price set out in clauses 7.2 to 7.4 (inclusive) are all made on a Shares basis (based on the overall capitalization of the Company).

 

7.6                               If the Company at any time after the Subscription Date and before the Maturity Date issues or sells, or is deemed by the express provisions of this clause 7 to have issued or sold, Additional Shares (as defined below), other than as provided in clauses 7.2, 7.3 or 7.4 above, for an Effective Price (as defined below) less than the Current Market Price per Share on the date of the first public announcement of the terms of such issue or sale (a Qualifying Dilutive Issue), then the Conversion Price will be reduced, as of the opening of business on the date of such issue or sale, to a price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issue or sale by a fraction:

 

7.6.1                                                         the numerator of which will be:

 

7.6.1.1                                                     the number of Shares outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale; plus

 

7.6.1.2                                                     the number of Shares which the Aggregate Consideration (as defined below) received or deemed to be received by the Company for the total number of Additional Shares issued would purchase at the Current Market Price per Share on the date of the first public announcement of the terms of such issue or sale.

 

7.6.2                                             the denominator of which will be the number of Shares outstanding immediately prior to such issue or sale plus the total number of Additional Shares issued.

 

7.7                                                       No adjustment will be made to the Conversion Price in an amount less than A$0.01 per Share.  Any adjustment required by clauses 7.5 and 7.6 will be rounded to the nearest A$0.01 per Share. Any adjustment otherwise required by clauses 7.5 or 7.6 that is not required to be made due to the preceding two sentences will be included in any subsequent adjustment to the Conversion Price.

 

7.8                                                       For the purpose of making any adjustment required under clauses 7.5 and 7.6, the aggregate consideration received by the Company for any issue or sale of securities (the Aggregate Consideration) will:

 

7.8.1                                             to the extent it consists of cash, be computed at the gross amount of cash received by the Company before deduction of any underwriting or similar commissions, compensation or concessions paid or

 

12











 

allowed by the Company in connection with such issue or sale and without deduction of any expenses payable by the Company;

 

7.8.2                                             to the extent it consists of property other than cash, be computed at the fair value of that property as determined in good faith by the Board;

 

7.8.3                                             if Additional Shares, Convertible Securities (as defined below) or rights or options to purchase either Additional Shares or Convertible Securities are issued or sold together with other stock or securities or other assets of the Company for a consideration which covers both cash or property other than cash, be computed as the portion of the consideration so received that may be reasonably determined in good faith by the Board to be allocable to such Additional Shares, Convertible Securities or rights or options; and

 

7.8.4                                             if the consideration or price determined pursuant to clauses 7.8.1 and 7.8.2 above (or any component thereof) is in a currency other than the Relevant Currency it will be converted into the Relevant Currency at the Prevailing Rate on the date of the first public announcement of the event giving rise to the adjustment.

 

7.9                                                       For the purpose of an adjustment required under clauses 7.5 or 7.6, if the Company issues or sells:

 

7.9.1                                             stock, options, warrants, purchase rights or other securities convertible into Shares (such convertible stock or securities being referred to as Convertible Securities); or

 

7.9.2                                             rights or options for the purchase of Shares or Convertible Securities,

 

and if the Effective Price of such Additional Shares is less than the Current Market Price per Share on the date of the first public announcement of the terms of such issue or sale of Convertible Securities or rights or options, or alternatively in the case of rights or options, at the date of exercise of those rights or options (Exercise Date), in each case the Company will be deemed to have issued (at the time of issue of such rights or options or Convertible Securities or, where applicable, the Exercise Date) the maximum number of Additional Shares which are issuable upon exercise or conversion thereof and to have received as consideration for the issue of such Shares an amount equal to the total amount of the consideration, if any, received by the Company for the issue of such rights or options or Convertible Securities plus:

 

7.9.3                                                   in the case of such rights or options, the minimum amounts of consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise of such rights or options; and

 

7.9.4                                                   in the case of Convertible Securities, the minimum amounts of consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion thereof (other than by cancellation of liabilities or obligations evidenced by such Convertible Securities) provided that if the minimum amounts of such consideration cannot be ascertained, but are a function of antidilution or similar protective clauses, the

 

13











 

Company shall be deemed to have received the minimum amounts of consideration without reference to clauses 7.5 or 7.6.

 

7.10                                                If the minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of rights, options or Convertible Securities that constitute Additional Shares is reduced over time or on the occurrence or non-occurrence of specified events other than by reason of antidilution adjustments, the Effective Price will be recalculated using the figure to which such minimum amount of consideration is reduced; provided that if the minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of such rights, options or Convertible Securities that constitute Additional Shares is subsequently increased, the Effective Price will be again recalculated using the increased minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of such rights, options or Convertible Securities.

 

7.11                                                No further adjustment of the Conversion Price, as previously adjusted pursuant to clauses 7.5 to 7.11 (inclusive) upon the issue of such rights, options or Convertible Securities, will be made as a result of the actual issue of Additional Shares or the exercise of any such rights or options or the conversion of any such Convertible Securities.  If any such rights or options or the conversion privilege represented by any such Convertible Securities expires without having been exercised, such Conversion Price as previously adjusted pursuant to clauses 7.5 to 7.11 (inclusive) upon the issue of such rights, options or Convertible Securities, will be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would have been in effect had an adjustment been made on the basis that the only Additional Shares so issued were the Additional Shares, if any, actually issued or sold on the exercise of such rights or options or rights of conversion of such Convertible Securities, and such Additional Shares, if any, were issued or sold for the consideration actually received by the Company upon such exercise, plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the Company for the granting of all such rights or options, whether or not exercised, plus the consideration received for issuing or selling the Convertible Securities actually converted, plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the Company (other than by cancellation of liabilities or obligations evidenced by such Convertible Securities) on the conversion of such Convertible Securities, provided that such readjustment will not apply to prior conversions of the Notes.

 

7.12                                                For the purpose of making any adjustment to the Conversion Price required under clauses 7.5 to 7.11 (inclusive), “Additional Shares” will mean all Shares issued by the Company or deemed to be issued pursuant to clauses 7.5 to 7.11 (inclusive) (including Shares subsequently reacquired or retired by the Company), other than:

 

7.12.1                                       Notes or Options issued under this Deed;

 

7.12.2                                      Shares issued upon conversion of the Notes or upon exercise of the Options issued under this Deed;

 

7.12.3                                      Shares or Convertible Securities issued after the Subscription Date pursuant to an Employee Incentive Scheme of the Company (including all Shares that may be issued on conversion or exercise of such Convertible Securities);

 

14











 

7.12.4                                      Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of Convertible Securities on issue as at the Subscription Date;

 

7.12.5                                      Shares issued under any Share Purchase Plan which is undertaken within six months of the date of the issue of Notes and Options to Noteholders under this Deed;

 

7.12.6                                      up to US$5 million worth of new Shares (calculated based on the VWAP of Shares or (where applicable) CDIs over the 20 Trading Days prior to the private placement, at the Prevailing Rate as at the end of that 20 Trading Day period) under a private placement to sophisticated and institutional investors within six months of the date of the issue of the Notes and Options to Noteholders under this Deed at a price that is at least 95% of the VWAP of Shares or (where applicable) CDIs over the 20 Trading Days prior to the offer to such investors;

 

7.12.7                                      Shares with respect to which the Noteholders by Unanimous Resolution have waived the anti-dilution rights provided for in clauses 7.5 to 7.11 (inclusive); and

 

7.12.8                                      an adjustment which would contravene the Delaware General Corporate Law or the ASX Listing Rules,

 

PROVIDED THAT the maximum aggregate number of Shares (including Shares issued upon conversion or exercise of any Convertible Securities issued pursuant to clause 7.12.3) to which the exceptions in clauses 7.12.3, 7.12.5 and 7.12.6 apply is 8,700,000 Shares.

 

References to Shares in clause 7.12 above will mean all Shares issued by the Company or deemed to be issued pursuant to clauses 7.5 to 7.11 (inclusive).

 

The “Effective Price” of Additional Shares will mean the quotient determined by dividing the total number of Additional Shares issued or sold, or deemed to have been issued or sold by the Company under clauses 7.5 to 7.11 (inclusive), into the Aggregate Consideration received, or deemed to have been received by the Company for such issue under clauses 7.5 to 7.11 (inclusive) for such Additional Shares.  In the event that the number of Additional Shares or the Effective Price cannot be ascertained at the time of issue, such Additional Shares will be deemed issued immediately upon the occurrence of the first event that makes such number of Shares or the Effective Price, as applicable, ascertainable.

 

Certificate as to Adjustments

 

7.13                                                                        Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this clause 7, the Company at its expense will, as promptly as reasonably practicable but in any event not later than 10 Business Days thereafter, compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms of this Deed and provide to each Noteholder a certificate setting out such adjustment or readjustment (including the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property into which a Note is convertible) and showing in detail the facts and computations upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.  The Company will, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the written request at any time of any Noteholder (but in any event

 

15











 

not later than 10 days thereafter), furnish or cause to be furnished to such Noteholder a certificate setting out:

 

7.13.1                                             the Conversion Price then in effect; and

 

7.13.2                                            the number of Shares (and consequent number of CDIs) and the amount, if any, of other securities, cash or property which then would be received upon the conversion of a Note.

 

8.                                      ISSUE OF SHARES ON CONVERSION OF NOTES

 

8.1                               The Shares and CDIs issued upon Conversion of the Notes will be fully paid and will in all respects rank pari passu with the fully paid Shares and CDIs on issue on the relevant Conversion Date, except in any such case for any right excluded by mandatory provisions of applicable law and except that such Shares and CDIs will not rank for (or, as the case may be, the Noteholder will not be entitled to receive) any rights, distributions or payments on any record date or other due date for the establishment of entitlement in respect of the Shares or CDIs on issue on the relevant Conversion Date which falls prior to the relevant Conversion Date.

 

9.                                      DISCHARGE AND RELEASE

 

9.1                               The Company will immediately be discharged and released from its liabilities and obligations under this Deed (other than liabilities for any breach of, or claim in relation to, this Deed prior to the date of such discharge and release) in respect of any particular Note on the first to occur of the date on which:

 

9.1.1                                             if Conversion has not occurred, the Redemption Amount for that Note has been satisfied in full; or

 

9.1.2                                             if Conversion has occurred, the Conversion of that Note has been completed in accordance with clauses 6.9 to 6.13 (inclusive).

 

9.2                               Notwithstanding clause 9.1, the Company will not be released from any obligations under clause 13.3 or any other provision of this Deed expressed to apply for the benefit of Optionholders and obligations which it has with respect to the issue or exercise of the Options (or any Shares and CDIs which are required to be issued on exercise of the Options by an Optionholder) as a result of the Conversion of the Notes or the satisfaction of the Redemption Amount in full in respect of a Note.

 

9.3                               If for any reason (including under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, fiduciary obligations or the protection of creditors):

 

9.3.1                                             all or part of any transaction of any nature (including any payment or transfer) made during the term of this Deed which affects or relates in any way to obligations owed or discharged to a Noteholder or Optionholder is void, set aside or voidable;

 

9.3.2                                             any claim that anything contemplated by paragraph 9.3.1 is upheld, conceded or compromised; or

 

9.3.3                                             any Noteholder or Optionholder is required to return or repay any money or asset received by it under any such transaction or the equivalent in value of that money or asset,

 

16











 

that Noteholder or Optionholder will, notwithstanding clause 9.1 or any release or discharge under it, immediately become entitled to all rights which it would have had if all or the relevant part of the transaction or receipt had not taken place.  The Company shall indemnify on demand that Noteholder or Optionholder against any resulting loss, cost or expense.  This clause 9 continues to apply after this Deed is terminated or discharged.

 

10.                               EVENTS OF DEFAULT

 

Events of Default

 

10.1                        It is an event of default (Event of Default) if, at any time:

 

10.1.1                                      the Company fails to pay or repay an amount due under and in the manner required by this Deed unless the Noteholders by Resolution are satisfied that the failure to pay is due to technical or administrative delays in the transmission of funds and the relevant amount is paid within five Business Days of the date due for payment;

 

10.1.2                                      any:

 

10.1.2.1                            Finance Debt of the Group is not paid when due nor within any originally applicable grace period;

 

10.1.2.2                            Finance Debt of the Group is declared to be or otherwise becomes due and payable prior to its specified maturity as a result of an event of default (however described);

 

10.1.2.3                            any commitment for any Finance Debt of the Group is cancelled or suspended by a creditor as a result of an event of default (however described); or

 

10.1.2.4                            any creditor of the Group becomes entitled to declare any Finance Debt due and payable prior to its specified maturity as a result of an event of default (however described),

 

provided that no Event of Default will occur under this clause 10.1 if the aggregate amount of all Finance Debt or commitment for Finance Debt falling within clause 10.1.2.1 to 10.1.2.4 above is less than US$1,000,000 (or its equivalent);

 

10.1.3                                      an Authorisation, approval or consent which is material to the Group or its business is cancelled, repealed, revoked or terminated or has expired, or is modified or amended or conditions are attached to it in a manner which is likely to have a Material Adverse Effect;

 

10.1.4                                      the Company or Key Management fails to perform any material obligation under or otherwise materially breaches a Transaction Document (other than as set out in clause 10.1.1) unless in the reasonable opinion of Noteholders by Resolution such failure is capable of remedy and is so remedied within 10 Business Days of such failure;

 

10.1.5                                      any warranty or representation made by the Company or Key Management in a Transaction Document or the Prospectus is or becomes false, misleading or incorrect in any material respect when made or regarded as made by the

 

17












 

Company  or Key Management under the Transaction Documents unless in the reasonable opinion of the Noteholders by Resolution such failure is capable of remedy and is so remedied within 10 Business Days of such failure;

 

10.1.6                                      an Insolvency Event occurs in relation to any member of the Group;

 

10.1.7                                      if the Group is in breach of an applicable law, regulation, Authorisation, listing rule, or court order, official directive or ruling of any Government Agency binding on it which is likely to have a Material Adverse Effect;

 

10.1.8                                      any person becomes entitled to repudiate, terminate, rescind or avoid any material provision of a Transaction Document;

 

10.1.9                                      the CDIs of the Company cease to be quoted on the ASX or are suspended from trading for more than 5 consecutive Trading Days unless the Noteholders by Resolution agree to a longer period of suspension; or

 

10.1.10                               where Shares in the Company have been quoted on any Relevant Stock Exchange, the Shares of the Company cease to be quoted on the Relevant Stock Exchange or are suspended from trading for more than 5 consecutive Trading Days unless the Noteholders by Resolution agree to a longer period of suspension.

 

Acceleration

 

10.2                        Subject to clause 10.3, at any time after the occurrence of any Event of Default, and while such Event of Default is continuing, the Majority of Noteholders may declare the Notes to be immediately due and payable in accordance with clause 10.4 (subject to clause 10.5, without prejudice to the Noteholders to Convert their Notes in accordance with the provisions of this Deed) (a Declaration of Acceleration).

 

10.3                        At any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default under clause 10.1.6 as a result of an Insolvency Event described in paragraphs (b), (d), (e) and/or (f) of that definition, all Notes then outstanding shall automatically become and be immediately due and payable in accordance with clause 10.4 without any declaration or other act on the part of any Noteholder (subject to clause 10.5, without prejudice to the Noteholders’ rights to Convert their Notes in accordance with the provisions of this Deed) (an Automatic Acceleration and, together with a Declaration of Acceleration, an Acceleration Event).

 

10.4                        Following an Acceleration Event (and whether or not an Event of Default is thereafter continuing), the Redemption Amount will become immediately due and payable in respect of all Notes without any further action by the Noteholders.

 

10.5                        For the avoidance of doubt, if any Acceleration Event occurs and the Redemption Amount in respect of a Note has been paid in full, no Noteholder may thereafter elect to Convert that Note.

11.3.8                                      this clause 11, clause 26, clause 27.1.1 or clause 29.17.

 

Resolutions binding

 

11.4                        Each Noteholder is bound by the terms of each Resolution or Unanimous Resolution which is passed by the Noteholders.

 

Payments

 

11.5                        The Company will ensure that all payments or repayments of amounts due and payable under or in connection with this Deed are made in the following order of payment:

 

11.5.1                                      First: rateably among the Noteholders in proportion to the outstanding principal amount of each Noteholder’s Notes relative to the total outstanding principal amount of all outstanding Notes (Noteholder’s Proportional Share) in respect of any Redemption Amount then due and payable; and

 

19











 

11.5.2                                      Secondly: rateably among the Noteholders in proportion to each of their Noteholder’s Proportional Share in respect of any payment or repayment (excluding in respect of any Redemption Amount).

 

11.6                        Clause 11.5 applies despite any rule of law or equity to the contrary or the respective dates on which anything is done.

 

Proportionate Sharing

 

11.7                        If the Noteholders determine by Resolution that the Company is unable to satisfy all outstanding obligations to all of the Noteholders and Optionholders in full on the due date or within any agreed grace period, then on and from that day (Determinate Date):

 

11.7.1                                      each Noteholder and Optionholder will notify each other Noteholder and Optionholder of all amounts received by it under or in connection with this Deed and applied in satisfaction of any payment due from the Company whether before or after the Determinate Date;

 

11.7.2                                      if any Noteholder or Optionholder (Sharing Party) has received or recovered any money in satisfaction of any obligation of the Company under or in connection with this Deed in any way (including by set-off) other than in accordance with the order required by clause 11.5 (Incorrect Recovery), and the Company is or otherwise becomes unable to satisfy all outstanding obligations to each other Noteholder and Optionholder in full:

 

11.7.2.1                            the Sharing Party agrees to make such payments as are necessary to each other Noteholder or Optionholder so that the order of payment in clause 11.5 is preserved as between the parties in respect of all outstanding obligations (each a Sharing Payment);

 

11.7.2.2                            the liability of the Company to each Sharing Party will be increased by the total amount of all Sharing Payments made by that Sharing Party as though those payments had been made directly to the parties receiving the Sharing Payments;

 

11.7.2.3                            the liability of the Company to each person receiving a Sharing Payment will be reduced by the amount of those Sharing Payments; and

 

11.7.2.4                            without limiting clause 11.7.2.2, the Company will indemnify each Sharing Party to the extent that (despite clause 11.7.2.2) its liability to that Sharing Party was discharged by the initial recovery or payment to it by the Company or otherwise for any loss, cost or expense as a result of making a Sharing Payment;

 

11.7.3                                     where:

 

11.7.3.1                            any Incorrect Recovery and Sharing Payment leaves any party with a claim against the Company that is less than all outstanding obligations owing to it under or in connection with this Deed (Shortfall), the Noteholders and Optionholders agree that each person receiving a Sharing Payment will assign to the Sharing Party any corresponding debt owed by the Company to that person under

Right of First Offer

 

13.4                        For so long as any Notes remain outstanding, the Company shall notify each Noteholder in writing (a Debt ROFO Notice) if it or any member of the Group proposes to or is considering a proposal to issue, incur or raise any Finance Debt (other than Finance Debt of the kind referred to in paragraphs (a) or (d) of that definition arising in the ordinary course of trading) (New Debt Raising) and shall include in such notice any outline terms of the New Debt Raising.

 

13.5                        Each Noteholder who expresses an interest in participating in the New Debt Raising within 5 Business Days of receipt of the Debt ROFO Notice (the ROFO Noteholders) has a separate and independent right, but not the obligation, to enter into negotiations with the Company to agree terms for the New Debt Raising.

 

13.6                        If there are no ROFO Noteholders, or the Company is unable to reach agreement with any ROFO Noteholders in relation to the terms of the New Debt Raising, the Company may, subject to this Deed, enter into discussions and negotiations with persons who are not Noteholders in relation to the New Debt Raising.

 

13.7                        If the Company agrees terms for the proposed New Debt Raising with any person (including a Noteholder), it must provide each other Noteholder with written notice of the proposed New Debt Raising and the terms of such New Debt Raising (Debt ROFR Notice).

 

13.8                        The Company shall also promptly provide any additional information regarding the New Debt Raising as may be requested by any Noteholder.

 

13.9                        Each Noteholder shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in up to fifty percent (50%) of any such New Debt Raising on the terms and at the price specified in the Debt ROFR Notice, or on such other terms as are agreed by the parties, by giving notice in writing to the Company before the later of 5 Business Days after the Debt ROFR Notice and 15 Business Days after the Debt ROFO Notice.

 

13.10                 If multiple Noteholders elect to participate in any New Debt Raising, those Noteholders will, to the extent required, participate in the New Debt Raising pro rata in accordance with their respective Noteholder’s Proportional Share on the date of the Debt ROFR Notice.

 

13.11                 If each of the Noteholders elects not to participate in the New Debt Raising that is the subject of a Debt ROFR Notice, then the Company may execute such New Debt Raising with any other party (if otherwise permitted by the terms of this Deed), provided that the proposed terms of such New Debt Raising are no more favorable than those offered to the Noteholders in the Debt ROFR Notice.

 

13.12                 No person may at any time be allowed to participate in any New Debt Raising on terms more favourable than those offered to the Noteholders.

 

Alternative Stock Exchanges

 

13.13                 The Company agrees to use reasonable efforts to effect an SEC-registered initial public offering of its shares and an associated listing on NASDAQ or any other securities exchange approved by a Majority of Noteholders as soon as practicable after September 2015.  In the event of such initial public offering, each Noteholder shall have the right to require the Company to register the Shares held the by Noteholder (or Shares which would be held upon Conversion of its Notes or exercise of its Options) for sale in such initial public offering in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.

 

28











 

13.14                 If the Company lists on any Alternative Stock Exchange, and as a result of such listing any provision of the Transaction Documents becomes ineffective or unenforceable, or a right of a Noteholder is materially and adversely affected, then the Company agrees to use best efforts to agree and implement such alternative or additional rights as are necessary in the reasonable opinion of the Noteholders to give them equivalent rights as they enjoyed prior to such listing, or if such equivalent rights cannot be granted to the Noteholders within 30 days after such listing, to indemnify the Noteholders against any loss (including material diminution of the value of the rights enjoyed by Noteholders) the Noteholders suffer as a result of such listing.

23.2                        During the Conversion Period, if any Noteholder (a Selling Noteholder) proposes to sell any Notes and/or Options (the Sale Instruments) they must, prior to entering into discussions or negotiations with any person in relation to such proposed sale, give each other Noteholder a written notice stating the number of Notes and/or Options that they propose to sell (a ROFO Notice).

 

23.3                        Following receipt of a written notice, any Noteholder (a ROFO Responder) may express an interest in acquiring all or any part of the Sale Instruments set out in the ROFO Notice by notice in writing to the Selling Noteholder within 5 Business Days of the ROFO Notice (ROFO Response).

 

23.4                        Each ROFO Responder has the right, but not the obligation, to enter into negotiations with the Selling Noteholder to agree terms for the sale of the Sale Instruments.

23.6                        If the Selling Noteholder agrees terms for the proposed sale of any Sale Instruments with any person (including any Noteholder), it must notify each Noteholder in writing of the proposed sale and the proposed price and terms of such sale (Selling Noteholder Notice).

 

23.7                        The selling Noteholder shall also promptly provide any additional information regarding proposed sale as may be requested by any Noteholder.

 

23.8                        Each Noteholder shall then have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase all or any part of the Sale Instruments that are the subject of the Selling Noteholder Notice on the terms and at the price specified in the Selling Noteholder Notice by providing written notice of the intent to purchase to the Selling Noteholder before the later of 5 Business Days after the Selling Noteholder Notice or 15 Business Days after the ROFO Notice.

 

23.9                        If multiple Noteholders elect to purchase the Sale Instruments in accordance with this clause, such Sale Instruments will be sold to such non-selling Noteholders pro rata in accordance with their respective Noteholder’s Proportional Share at the time the Selling Noteholder Notice is given.

 

23.10                 If each of the ROFO Responders elects not to purchase any of the Sale Instruments that are the subject of the Selling Noteholder Notice, then the selling Noteholder may sell such Sale Instrument to any other party (provided such sale is made in accordance with clause 23.1), provided that the proposed price and terms of such sale are no more favourable than those offered to the Noteholders in the Selling Noteholder Notice.

24.1                        Noteholders and Optionholders are entitled to convert any CDIs held by them at any time (whether such CDIs are obtained by such Noteholders or Optionholders as result of Conversion of any Notes or exercise of any Options, respectively, or otherwise) into the equivalent number of Shares that such CDIs represent (where one CDI is equal to one-tenth of a Share) within five Business Days of written notice to the Company under this clause.

 

24.2                        If, at the time of Conversion of any Note or exercise of any Option or after conversion of CDIs into Shares under clause 24.1:

 

24.2.1                                      CDIs are no longer quoted on ASX; or

 

24.2.2                                      the Company’s Shares are or become quoted on any Alternative Stock Exchange,

 

then the Company must:

 

24.2.3                                      in the case of a Conversion of the Notes or exercise of the Options where the CDIs are no longer quoted on ASX, issue to the Noteholder or Optionholder, as applicable, the number of Shares calculated in accordance with clause 6.13;

 

24.2.4                                      enter the relevant Noteholder or Optionholder, as the case may be, into the Company’s register of members as the holder of the relevant number of Shares;

 

24.2.5                                      deliver to the Noteholder or Optionholder (or procure the delivery of) a holding statement showing the Noteholder or Optionholder, as the case may be, as the holder of the relevant Shares;

 

24.2.6                                      apply for and use its reasonable efforts to obtain quotation of the Shares (or any equivalent amount of securities whose value is referable to the Shares) on any Alternative Stock Exchange (and, if there is more than one Alternative Stock Exchange, on the exchange that is nominated in writing by the holder of those Shares) as soon as practicable on such terms and conditions as are usual for quotation of securities on that Alternative Stock Exchange;

 

24.2.7                                      notwithstanding the issue of the Prospectus, to the extent that any action is required to be taken in order to facilitate the on-sale of Shares or securities, to take such action (including, where required, issuing a further prospectus, cleansing notice or disclosure document in respect of the Shares or securities) to ensure that such Shares or securities will, on and from the Subscription Date, at all times thereafter be freely tradable, including on the Relevant Stock Exchange; and

 

24.2.8                                      in the event that the Company’s Shares become quoted on NASDAQ or any other Alternative Stock Exchange approved in writing by the Majority of Noteholders and the Company remains in compliance with this clause 24.2, then notwithstanding any other clause of this Deed, the failure to issue CDIs under this Deed or to continue to list or quote CDIs on ASX or a suspension of the trading of CDIs shall not be deemed to be a breach of this Deed.

26.2                        The obligations of each Noteholder under the Transaction Documents are several. Failure by a Noteholder to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents does not affect the obligations of any other party. No Noteholder is responsible for the obligations of any other party under the Transaction Documents.

 

26.3                        The rights of each Noteholder under or in connection with the Transaction Documents are separate and independent rights and any debt arising under the Transaction Documents to a Noteholder from the Company will be a separate and independent debt.

 

27.                               STATUS AS CREDITORS AND SUBORDINATION

 

27.1                        Prior to Conversion, each Note:

 

27.1.1                                      ranks equally with each other Note;

 

27.1.2                                      confers rights on each Noteholder as an unsecured creditor of the Company; and

 

27.1.3                                      does not confer on a Noteholder any right to attend or vote at general meetings of the Company (other than by reason of pre-existing rights to do so).

 

27.2                        By accepting the issue of a Note each Noteholder:

 

27.2.1                                      agrees to be bound by this Deed; and

 

27.2.2                                      acknowledges that it is an unsecured creditor of the Company and that the Note does not confer rights as a member of the Company until Conversion.

 

28.                               PAYMENTS

 

Payment

 

28.1                        All payments to be made in relation to a Note will be made:

 

28.1.1                                      without deduction of all withholdings and deductions required by law except as required in clause 28.2 below; and

 

39











 

28.1.2                                      in Immediately Available Funds to a bank account to be nominated by the relevant party in US Dollars.

 

Withholdings, deductions and gross-up

 

28.2                        Whenever the Company is obliged to make a deduction in respect of Tax from any payment to a person (Payee) in connection with this Deed:

 

28.2.1                                      it will promptly pay the amount deducted to the appropriate Government Agency;

 

28.2.2                                      it will promptly and in any event within 30 days of the end of the month in which the deduction is made, deliver to the Payee official receipts or other evidence of payment acceptable to the relevant Payee (acting reasonably); and

 

28.2.3                                      unless the Tax is an Excluded Tax, it will pay the Payee on the due date of the payment any additional amounts necessary (as determined by the relevant Payee) to ensure that the relevant Payee receives when due a net amount (after payment of any Taxes in respect of those additional amounts) in the relevant currency equal to the full amount which it would have received had a deduction not been made, and it will indemnify the relevant Payee against such Tax and any amounts recoverable from the relevant Payee in respect of such Tax.

 

28.3                        The Company waives any statutory right to recover from any Payee any amount paid under clause 28.2.

 

28.4                        The obligations of the Company under clause 28.2 survive the redemption or Conversion of all Notes and the termination of this Deed.

 

Calculations

 

28.5                        The resolution of a dispute over any calculations which are required to be made for the purposes of the Deed will be made by the auditors of the Company for the time being and will, in the absence of manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding on the Noteholders and Optionholders.

 

29.                               MISCELLANEOUS

 

Entire agreement

 

29.1                        the Transaction Documents comprise the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter of the Transaction Documents and supersedes all prior understandings, agreements, representations and correspondence with respect to the same.

29.3.1                                      the Noteholder or Optionholder, as the case may be, has validly transferred Notes or Options, as the case may be, to the Assignee in accordance with clause 23;

 

40

29.3.3                                      the Assignee agrees to be bound by the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, as further specified therein.

 

29.4                        The Company may not assign any of its rights or obligations under this Deed to any person without the consent of the Majority of Noteholders, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld in connection with a Permitted Transaction where the acquirer agrees to be bound by the obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Notes and the Options on terms satisfactory to the Noteholders and Optionholders.

 

Consent must be in writing

 

29.5                        Any consent given or a right, power or remedy waived by a party in connection with this Deed is only effective if given or waived in writing.

29.7                        A Noteholder may, but need not, set off any obligation from the Company to that Noteholder against any obligation owed by that Noteholder to the Company (whether or not matured), regardless of the place of payment or currency of either obligation. If the obligations are in different currencies, the Noteholder may convert either obligation at a market rate of exchange in its usual course of business for the purpose of the set-off.

 

Severability

 

29.8                        If a clause or part of a clause of this Deed can be read in a way that makes it illegal, unenforceable or invalid, but can also be read in a way that makes it legal, enforceable and valid, it must be read in the latter way.  If any clause or part of a clause is illegal, unenforceable or invalid, that clause or part is to be treated as removed from this Deed, but the rest of this Deed is not affected.

 

Certificates

 

29.9                        Any certification or determination by a Noteholder or Optionholder of an amount due under this Deed is sufficient evidence of the matters to which it relates unless the contrary is proved.

 

Amendments and waivers

 

29.10                At any time and from time to time the Company may, by resolution of its Board, modify, alter, cancel, amend or add to all or any of this Deed, provided that such modification, alteration, cancellation, amendment or addition has previously been approved by the Majority of Noteholders or by Unanimous Resolution (as applicable) in accordance with clause 11.

Each Noteholder agrees that neither it nor its respective controlling persons, officers, directors, partners, agents, or employees of any Noteholder shall be liable to any other Noteholder for any action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the purchase of the Notes or Options.

1.6                               If there is a bonus issue to the holders of CDIs, the number of CDIs representing Shares over which an Option is exercisable will be increased by the number of CDIs which the Optionholder would have received if they had exercised their Options before the record date for the bonus issue.

 

1.7                               In the event the Company proceeds with a pro rata issue (except a bonus issue) of securities to Securityholders after the date of issue of the Options, the Exercise Price for the Option will be reduced in accordance with the formula set out in ASX Listing Rule 6.22.2.

 

1.8                               The Options will not be quoted on ASX or on any other securities exchange.

 

1.9                               Shares and CDIs issued pursuant to an exercise of the Options will rank, from the date of issue, equally with the existing Shares and CDIs of the Company in all respects.

 

1.10                        The Company will make an application to have those CDIs issued pursuant to an exercise of the Options listed for official quotation by ASX.

 

1.11                        The Options will be exercisable by the delivery to the registered office of the Company of a notice in writing stating the intention of the Optionholder to exercise all or a specified number of the Options held by them (Exercise Notice) accompanied by the Option Certificate and payment to the Company of the relevant Exercise Price. An exercise of only some of the Options will not affect the rights of the Optionholder to the balance of the Options held by them.

 

1.12                        Immediately after receipt by the Company of a valid Exercise Notice and payment of the Exercise Price in Immediately Available Funds (and in any event no later than two Business Days thereafter), the Company must:

1.12.1                                      allot and issue to CDN the number of fully paid Shares equal to the number of the Options which have been exercised;

 

1.12.2                                      procure that CDN allots and issues to the Optionholder the number of CDIs representing the Shares issued to CDN under paragraph 1.12.1 (which, at the date of this Deed, is 10 CDIs per Share);

 

1.12.3                                      enter CDN into the Company’s register of members as the holder of the relevant number of Shares and procure that CDN enters the Optionholder into the register of CDI holders as the holder of the relevant number of CDIs;

 

1.12.4                                      deliver to the Optionholder (or procure the delivery of) a holding statement showing the Optionholder as the holder of the relevant number of CDIs;

 

1.12.5                                      apply for and use its reasonable efforts to obtain Official Quotation of the relevant number of CDIs on ASX as soon as practicable on such terms and conditions as are usual for quotation of securities on ASX; and

 

1.12.6                                      notwithstanding the issue of the Prospectus, to the extent that any action is required to be taken in order to facilitate the on-sale of Shares or CDIs by the Optionholder, to take such action (including, where required, issuing a further prospectus, cleansing notice or disclosure document in respect of the Shares or CDIs) to ensure that such Shares or CDIs will at all times be freely tradeable on the ASX.

 

1.13                        An Optionholder will be entitled to convert any CDIs received on exercise of an Option into Shares at any time pursuant to clause 24 of the Deed.

 

1.14                        If, at the time of exercise of any Option, CDIs are no longer quoted on ASX, then on exercise of the Option the Company must (except as otherwise agreed in writing with the relevant Optionholder) issue directly to the Optionholder the number of Shares over which the Option is exercisable and must procure that those Shares are listed for trading on any securities exchange on which any of the Company’s Shares are tradeable.

 

1.15                        The rights of the Optionholders and the obligations of the Company in relation to the Options are separate and independent of the Deed. They will survive the termination of the Deed and will be unaffected by any redemption, Conversion or other event in respect of the Notes.

 

1.16                        At any time while Company is listed on an Alternative Stock Exchange, an Optionholder may elect by notice in writing to the Company for the Options to be exercisable directly into the form of securities listed on that Alternative Stock Exchange, in which case, on exercise of the Option the Company must (except as otherwise agreed in writing with the relevant Optionholder) issue directly to the Optionholder the number of securities as are equivalent to the number of Shares over which the Option is exercisable and must procure that those securities are listed for trading on that Alternative Stock Exchange.

 

1.17                        The terms of this schedule (and any definitions that are used in this schedule) upon issue of any Option will apply separately in respect of that Option, and in respect of any Option may only be amended by agreement in writing signed by the Company and the Optionholder.

SCHEDULE 4:  AGREED ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

 

Goldman Sachs and Senrigan to Provide Financing

US$25 Million Funding Commitment

 

San Diego, California and Sydney, Australia (Thursday 25 September 2014, AEST) — REVA Medical, Inc. (“REVA” or the “Company”) announced today that it has entered into a convertible note deed with Goldman Sachs International (“Goldman Sachs”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., and Senrigan Master Fund (“Senrigan”), an investment vehicle managed by Senrigan Capital, which, if approved by stockholders, will provide funding for the Company’s ongoing operating, clinical, and capital needs including, specifically, the clinical testing and planned CE Mark application of its Fantom bioresorbable scaffold.

 

Under the convertible note deed, REVA will issue an aggregate principal amount of US$25 million in senior unsecured convertible notes and 8,750,000 options; each option allows the purchase of one share of REVA’s common stock. If the options are exercised in full at their maximum exercise price of A$3.00 per share, they would generate approximately US$23.6 million of additional capital, based on current exchange rates. The convertible notes and options will be offered to Goldman Sachs and Senrigan under a prospectus to be prepared in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 6D of the Australian Corporations Act 2001 (Cth).

 

“We are extremely pleased to have the support of global institutional investors Goldman Sachs and Senrigan,” commented REVA’s Chief Executive Officer, Bob Stockman. “Securing this commitment, together with our polymer and clinical trial expertise, allows REVA to move Fantom forward quickly into our clinical trial and ultimately to market.”

 

Fantom is a single-piece coronary stent made from REVA’s proprietary polymer, which allows for complete visibility of the stent when placed in the artery, an attribute unique to REVA. Additionally, Fantom’s polymer properties allow it to dissolve over time, leaving the artery free of a permanent implant and thereby allowing the artery to return to its natural movement, or “vasomotion.” Resorbable stents are commonly referred to as “scaffolds.”

 

The Fantom scaffold is currently in the latter stages of development and preclinical testing. The Company anticipates initiating a human clinical trial of Fantom before year-end. The clinical trial is designed to enroll up to 125 patients and provide the data needed to apply for CE Marking, the regulatory approval needed prior to commercially selling the device in Europe and other international markets under the CE Mark. REVA expects to apply for CE Mark by mid-2016 and anticipates that this financing will provide the capital needed to reach commercialization.

 

The convertible notes will have a five-year term, bear interest at 7.54% annually, and allow for cash redemption options by the holder at 26 months, at maturity, and upon a change of control or following an event of default under the convertible note deed. While interest compounds annually, it is payable only upon redemption.

 

The noteholders are allowed to convert some or all of the convertible notes into the trading securities of the Company at any time at an initial conversion price of A$0.25 per CHESS Depositary Interests (or “CDI”). The conversion price is subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the convertible note deed. Currently, REVA’s securities are traded in the form of CDIs on the Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”); 10 CDIs equal one share of the Company’s common stock.

 

The notes will automatically convert to CDIs in the event the Company has received CE Mark approval for Fantom and the market price of the Company’s CDIs exceeds A$0.60 for 20 consecutive trading days. Based on current exchange rates and the initial conversion price, the maximum number of CDIs that may be issued on conversion of all the convertible notes is approximately 111.1 million (or 11.1 million shares of common stock).

 

68











 

The exercise price of each option is set at A$2.50 (or the equivalent of A$0.25 per CDI) until such time as REVA has completed full patient enrollment in its CE Mark clinical trial of Fantom, at which time the exercise price will increase to A$3.00 (or A$0.30 per CDI).

 

Closing of the transaction is subject to, among other things, approval by REVA’s stockholders. Accordingly, a special meeting of stockholders will be held. The Proxy Statement for the special meeting will include additional details regarding the terms of the convertible notes and options and will be mailed to all stockholders.

 

A summary of the principal terms of the convertible notes and the options is attached to this announcement.

 

About REVA Medical, Inc.

 

REVA is a development stage medical device company located in San Diego, California, USA, that is focused on the development, testing, and eventual commercialization of its proprietary bioresorbable stents, which are called “scaffolds” because of their temporary nature. The Company’s scaffolds are being developed as an alternative to metal stents, which are small tube-like devices permanently implanted into an artery to treat coronary artery disease. Scaffolds provide restoration of blood flow, support the artery through the healing process, then disappear (or “resorb”) from the body over a period of time. This resorption allows the return of natural movement and function of the artery, a result not attainable with permanent metal stents. The Company has conducted clinical studies of its scaffold technologies; a total of 112 patients were enrolled in its most recent clinical trial in Australia, Brazil, Europe, and New Zealand, with enrollment completed during January 2014. The patients in this trial will be followed for a total of five years, with primary data to be obtained at nine and 12 months. The Company is now developing and testing its FantomTM scaffold, with initial human implants planned for late 2014 at multiple centers in Brazil and Europe. The Fantom scaffold has been designed to offer distinct ease-of-use features including complete scaffold visibility under x-ray, expansion with one continuous inflation, no procedural time limitations, and standard storage and handling. REVA will require successful clinical results and regulatory approval before it can commercialize Fantom or any of its other products.

Maturity:  the Notes mature and shall be repaid in an amount equal to Face Value plus accrued Interest on the earlier to occur of an event of default (as defined in the Deed) or the date 60 months from the date of issue of the Notes unless a Note has been previously converted, redeemed or cancelled.

 

Optional Redemption:  a Noteholder may elect to cause the Company to redeem all or some of its Notes which have not otherwise been converted, redeemed or cancelled on the date which is 26 months after the date of issue of the Notes, at an amount equal to Face Value plus accrued Interest, upon providing the Company with at least 30 calendar days prior written notice.

 

Redemption Following a Change of Control Event:  following the occurrence of certain change of control events, as further described in the Deed, each Noteholder may give the Company an irrevocable notice requiring the Company to redeem all or any part of their Notes for the greater of (a) the Face Value of the Notes plus accrued Interest and (b) the Cash Settlement Amount (as defined under “Option Conversion” below), provided such Noteholder gives written notice of its decision to redeem within five business days of the change of control event.

 

Stockholder Rights:  the Notes do not provide the holder voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company unless and until converted.

 

Interest:  interest will accrue in respect of the Notes at the rate of 7.54% per annum (increased to 9.54% per annum if any payments are past due); provided that interest is payable only upon redemption of the Notes for cash. No interest is payable on any Note that is converted into shares of common stock (represented by CDIs) in accordance with the terms of the Deed.

 

Optional Conversion:  at any time following the date of issue of the Notes but prior to the maturity date, a Noteholder may give the Company an irrevocable notice electing to convert (the “Conversion Notice”) all or some of the Notes held by the Noteholder and specifying the number of Notes the Noteholder is electing to convert into shares of the Company’s common stock (represented by CDIs).

 

The terms of the Notes contain provisions for the adjustment of the conversion price, which will initially be A$2.50 per share of our common stock (or A$0.25 per CDI), subject to adjustment as described under “Adjustment of Conversion Price” below.

 

The number of shares of the Company’s common stock (equivalent to 10 CDIs) to be issued upon conversion of the Notes is determined by dividing the face value of the Note converted (translated from U.S. dollars into Australian dollars at the exchange rate fixed on the subscription date for the Note) by the conversion price in effect on the conversion date.

 

Upon receipt of a Conversion Notice, the Company may, in lieu of issuing shares of common stock (represented by CDIs) to the Noteholder, give the Noteholder notice that the Company is electing to redeem the Notes subject to the Conversion Notice for an amount equal to the number of CDIs which would have been issued on conversion multiplied by the average daily volume-weighted average price on the ASX of the CDIs during the 20 trading days after receipt of the Conversion Notice (the “Cash Settlement Amount”).

 

Adjustment of Conversion Price:  the terms of the Notes contain provisions for the adjustment of the conversion price upon the occurrence of certain events, including reorganisation of issued capital, certain dividends, distributions and issuance by the Company of equity securities at a price below 

 

71











 

current market value. If such events occur, the conversion price will be adjusted in accordance with the terms of the Deed to ensure the economic value of the Notes is not adversely affected by the event.

 

Automatic Conversion:  Noteholders shall automatically be deemed to have given the Company an irrevocable Conversion Notice in respect of all of the Notes then held by the Noteholder in the event that both (a) the average daily volume weighted-average price of the Company’s CDIs as traded on the ASX equals or exceeds A$0.60 for a period of 20 consecutive trading days and (b) the Company has received CE Mark approval for its Fantom product.

 

Restrictions on Transfer:  subject to certain conditions, a Note or Option may be assigned or transferred to affiliates of the Noteholder, other Noteholders and to any party that is not a competitor (as defined in the Deed) of the Company, provided that the Notes may be transferred to any person, including a competitor of the Company, either upon the occurrence of a change of control event or while an event of default subsists.

 

Restrictions on Issuance of Equity Securities:  for so long as any Notes remain outstanding or Options remain unexercised, the Company may not raise additional capital through the sale or issuance of its equity securities (or securities convertible or exercisable for such securities) except (i) upon the exercise or conversion of securities currently outstanding, (ii) up to an aggregate of 8,700,000 shares of common stock upon equity issuances completed within 6 months of the issuance of the Note or upon the issuance of securities pursuant to the Company’s incentive equity plans, (iii) upon a stock split or stock dividend to all holders of the Company’s common stock, (iv) to the extent, acting in good faith and in accordance with their fiduciary duties to the Company under applicable law, the directors of the Company form the view that the failure to make such an offering would be a breach of their fiduciary duties, or (v) in certain other limited circumstances set forth in the Deed.

 

Right of First Refusal:  the Noteholders shall have a right of first offer and right of first refusal to acquire all or any portion of any finance debt (as defined in the Deed) that the Company determines to raise while the Notes remain outstanding, subject to certain limited exceptions.

 

Covenants:  for so long as any Notes remain outstanding, the Company shall not take certain actions, including, among other things, (i) declaring or paying any dividend, (ii) issuing any finance debt (as defined in the Deed) in excess of $10,000,000, (iii) granting any security interest in respect of or dispose of the Company’s intellectual property, or (iv) substantially changing the general nature or scope of its business, subject to such exceptions as specified in the Deed.

 

NASDAQ Listing and Registration Rights:  provisions of the Deed require the Company to use reasonable efforts to seek to list its common stock on NASDAQ as soon as practicable after September 2015. Additionally, as a condition precedent to issue of the Notes and Options, the Company must enter into an Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement with each Noteholder and each investor that is a party to the existing Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement with the Company dated December 16, 2010.  The Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement will be substantially in the form set forth in Schedule 8.to the Deed and will provide each Noteholder, subject to the terms and conditions therein, with the right to require the Company to file a registration statement with the SEC in respect of any securities in the Company held by each such Noteholder to facilitate the sale of such securities on the same basis, and in the same circumstances, as each of the investors that are a party to the existing Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement.

 

Lock-Up Agreements:  each of Robert B. Stockman (REVA’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer) and Robert K. Schulz (REVA’s President and Chief Operating Officer) have agreed to enter into Lock-Up Agreements with the Noteholders whereby each will agree not to offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale, file a registration statement with respect to, or otherwise dispose of (including entering into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequence of ownership interests) any shares or CDIs of the Company or any securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right receive any shares or CDIs of the Company, subject to certain exceptions as further described in the form of Lock-Up Agreement in Schedule 7 of the Deed.

 

Modifications to Notes:  provisions of the Notes may generally be modified, amended or waived by Noteholders that represent at least two-thirds of the outstanding principal face value amount of all outstanding Notes acting at a meeting or by written consent; provided, however, that unanimous 

 

72











 

consent of the Noteholders holding all of the outstanding notes is required to, amongst other items, (i) extend the term of the notes or their maturity date, (ii) reduce the amount of any payment of principal, interest, fees or any other payment obligation of the Company or (iii) change when and on what terms the Notes will convert or be redeemed, cancelled or otherwise repaid or prepaid.

 

An “Event of Default” includes, in summary:

 

Failure to pay:  a failure by the Company to pay an amount due under and in the manner required by the Deed;

 

(b)         Cross default:  finance debt of the Group that, in aggregate, exceeds US$1,000,000, is not paid when due or becomes due and payable prior to its maturity date;

 

(c)          Revocation:  an authorisation, approval or consent material to the Company or its business is cancelled, repealed, revoked or terminated or has expired, amended or modified in a manner which is likely to have a material adverse effect (as defined in the Deed);

 

(d)         Failure to perform:  the Company or key management fails to perform any material obligation under the Deed, the Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement or the Lock-up Agreement;

 

(e)          Misrepresentation:  any warranty or representation made by the Company under the Deed becomes false or misleading or incorrect in any material respect when made;

 

(f)           Insolvency event: an insolvency event (as defined in the Deed) occurs in relation the Company;

 

(g)         Breach of law:  the Company or any of its subsidiaries is in material breach of an applicable law, regulation, authorisation, listing rule, or court order, official directive or ruling of any Government Agency binding on it which is likely to have a material adverse effect (as defined in the Deed);

 

(h)         Termination:  any person becomes entitled to repudiate, terminate, rescind or avoid any material provision of the Deed, the Amended and Restated Investors’ Rights Agreement or the Lock-up Agreement; or

 

(i)            Listing:  CDIs cease to trade on ASX or are suspended from trading for more than 5 consecutive trading days or, where the Company’s common stock is quoted on an alternative exchange, the shares of the Company’s common stock cease to trade or are suspended from trading on such exchange for more than 5 consecutive trading days.

Summary of Certain Key Terms of the Options:

 

(a)               The Options may be exercised at any time after issuance until they expire.

 

(c)                The Options will automatically expire at 5.00pm Delaware, United States of America time on the date 60 months following the date of issue.

 

(d)               The Options confer the right to subscribe for one share of the Company’s common stock (equivalent to 10 CDIs) per Option upon the payment of the exercise price of:

 

(i)                  A$2.50 (translated into US dollars at the prevailing rate on the date of issue of the Options) where the Option is exercised before a defined Company milestone of full patient enrollment in the Company’s CE Mark clinical trial of the Fantom product has occurred, or

 

(ii)               A$3.00 (translated into US dollars at the prevailing rate on the date of issue of the Options) where the Option is exercised after full CE Mark clinical trial enrollment.

 

(e)                There are no participating rights or entitlements inherent in the Options and holders of the Options will not be entitled to participate in new issues of capital that may be offered to securityholders (except where the holder has first exercised any of their Options before the record date to participate in the new issue).

 

(f)                 In the event of any re-organisation (including reconstruction, consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return of capital) of the issued capital of the Company, the Options will be re-organised as required by the ASX Listing Rules.

 

(g)                If there is a bonus issue to the holders of CDIs, the number of CDIs over which an Option is exercisable will be increased by the number of CDIs which the Optionholder would have received if they had exercised their Options before the record date for the bonus issue.

 

(h)               In the event the Company proceeds with a pro rata issue (except a bonus issue) of securities to any holder of shares or CDIs of the Company after the date of issue of the Options, the exercise price for the Option will be reduced in accordance with the formula set out in ASX Listing Rule 6.22.2.

 

(i)                   The Options will not be quoted on ASX or any other securities exchange.

 

(j)                  CDIs allotted pursuant to an exercise of the Options will rank, from the date of allotment, equally with the existing CDIs of the Company in all respects.

 

(k)               The Company will make an application to have those CDIs allotted pursuant to an exercise of the Options listed for official quotation by ASX.

 

(l)                   The Options will be exercisable by the delivery to the registered office of the Company of a notice in writing stating the intention of the Optionholder to exercise all or a specified number of the Options held by them (an “Exercise Notice”) accompanied by the relevant option certificate and payment to the Company of the relevant exercise price. An exercise of only some of the Options will not affect the rights of the Optionholder to the balance of the Options held by them.

 

(m)           Immediately after receipt by the Company of a valid Exercise Notice and payment of the exercise price by the Optionholder in immediately available funds (and in any event no later than two Business Days thereafter), the Company must:

(ii)               enter the Optionholder into the Company’s register of members as the holder of the relevant number of CDIs;

 

(iii)            deliver to the Optionholder a holding statement showing the Optionholder as the holder of the relevant number of CDIs; and

 

74











 

(iv)           apply for and use its reasonable efforts to obtain Official Quotation of the relevant number of CDIs by ASX as soon as practicable on such terms and conditions as are usual for quotation of securities on ASX.

Re: REVA Medical, Inc. - Lock-Up Agreement

 

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

This Lock-Up Agreement is being delivered to you in connection with the Convertible Note Deed (the “Deed”), dated as of September 24, 2014 by and among REVA Medical, Inc. (the “Company”) and the investors party thereto (the “Noteholders”), with respect to the issuance of convertible notes (the “Notes”) which will be convertible into shares of common stock in the capital of the Company (the “Shares”), which will be represented by CHESS Depositary Interests (the “CDIs”) issued in accordance with the terms of the Deed. As used herein, “Undersigned’s Shares” means: (i) all common shares and all CDIs owned directly or indirectly by the undersigned (including holding as a custodian) or with respect to which the undersigned has beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and (ii) all options to purchase Shares or CDIs owned directly or indirectly by the undersigned (including holding as a custodian) or with respect to which the undersigned has beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Other capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Deed.

 

In order to induce the Noteholders to enter into the Deed and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned agrees that, commencing on the date hereof and ending on the earlier of (a) the date on which the CE Mark Approval Event occurs, (b) the date on which the Company has effected an SEC-registered public offering of its Shares on NASDAQ or such other securities exchange as approved by a Majority of Noteholders in accordance with the terms of the Deed, or (c) the date on which each of the initial Noteholders named in Schedule 1 to the Deed has Converted at least 60% of the Notes issued to it on the Subscription Date (the “Lock-Up Period”), the undersigned will not (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale, file a registration statement with respect to, or otherwise dispose of or agree to

 

79











 

dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the Undersigned’s Shares, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder with respect to any of the Undersigned Shares (collectively, a “Disposition”), or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any of the Undersigned’s Shares, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities or otherwise, including, without limitation, any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to any of the Undersigned’s Shares or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from the Undersigned’s Shares. The foregoing sentence shall not apply to the exercise of options or warrants or the conversion of a security outstanding as of the date hereof, provided, however, that the undersigned agrees that the foregoing sentence shall apply to any securities issued by the Company to the undersigned upon such an exercise or conversion.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions set forth in this Lock-Up Agreement will not apply to transfers by the undersigned of the Undersigned’s Shares:

 

(i)                                   as a bona fide gift to an immediate family member of the undersigned;

 

(ii)                                to any beneficiary of the undersigned pursuant to a will, trust instrument or other testamentary document or applicable laws of descent;

 

(iii)                             if expressly required pursuant to a order of any court or governmental authority having jurisdiction over the undersigned; and

 

(iv)                            in connection with a purchase, tender or exchange offer accepted by holders of more than 50% of the Shares of the Company, provided that each of the initial Noteholders named in Schedule 1 to the Deed has also agreed to accept such offer.

 

No transfer by the undersigned pursuant to items (i) and (ii) in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be permitted unless (a) prior to such transfer, the intended transferee (including the trustee or any trust) has signed and delivered to each of the initial Noteholders named in Schedule 1 to the Deed a lock-up agreement substantially in the form of this Lock-Up Agreement and (b) such transfer does not involve a disposition for value. For purposes of this Lock-Up Agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin.

 

The undersigned understands and agrees that this Lock-Up Agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns and agrees that it now has, and, except for transfers of the Undersigned’s Shares in accordance with the terms of this Lock-up Agreement, for the duration of the Lock-Up Period will have, good and marketable title to the Undersigned’s Shares, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, and claims whatsoever. The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the Undersigned’s Shares except in compliance with this Lock-Up Agreement.

 

This Lock-Up Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts. Each counterpart when so executed shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

 

This Lock-Up Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflicting provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware, or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware to be applied. In furtherance of the foregoing, the internal laws of the State of Delaware will control

 

80











 

the interpretation and construction of this Lock-Up Agreement, even if under such jurisdiction’s choice of law or conflict of law analysis, the substantive law of some other jurisdiction would ordinarily apply.

2.                                      REGISTRATION RIGHTS; RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER.

 

2.1                               Demand Registration.

 

2.1.1                     At any time after the Effective Date, the Holders of at least twenty percent (20%) of the Registrable Securities may require that the Company register for sale under the Securities Act all or any portion of the Registrable Securities held by such Investors (the “Initiating Holders”) for sale in the manner specified in such notice; provided, that such offering is expected to exceed $10,000,000 in the aggregate, counting all other securities of the Company being included in such offering (a “Demand Registration”).

 

2.1.2                     Following receipt of any notice under Section 2.1, the Company shall (i) within ten (10) days of the receipt thereof, give written notice to all Holders (the “Registration Notice”) and (ii) use its best efforts to effect the registration under the Securities Act as soon as practicable, and in any event within one hundred eighty (180) days after receipt of such notice, for public sale in accordance with the method of disposition specified in such notice of the number of Registrable Securities which the Holders request to be registered, subject to the limitations of Section 2.1(d), within twenty (20) days following delivery of the Registration Notice by the Company in accordance with Section 3.6.

 

2.1.3                     If the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their notice by means of an underwriting, the Initiating Holders shall so advise the Company as a part of their demand made pursuant to this Section 2.1.  If the method of disposition is an underwritten public offering, the Initiating Holders may designate the managing underwriter of such offering, whose designation shall be subject to the Company’s approval, not to be unreasonably withheld.  Each Holder may elect to include in such underwriting all or any part of the Registrable Securities it holds, subject to the limitations provided for in Section 2.1(d).

 

2.1.4                     A Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 2.1 may, subject to the following provisions and in addition to the Registrable Securities held by Holders, include shares of Common Stock for sale by the Company for its own account for sale in accordance with the method of disposition specified by the Initiating Holders.  If such registration shall be underwritten, the Company and all Holders proposing to distribute their shares through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the representative of the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting.  If and to the extent that the managing underwriter determines that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be included in such registration, then the shares of Common Stock sought to be registered by Holders

 

87











 

who are not Investors (collectively, the “Other Stockholders”) and shares of Common Stock to be sold by the Company for its own account shall be excluded from such registration to the extent so required by such managing underwriter, and unless the Other Stockholders and the Company have otherwise agreed in writing, such exclusion shall be applied first to the shares of Common Stock of the Company to be included for its own account to the extent required by the managing underwriter and then to the shares sought to be registered by the Other Stockholders to the extent required by the managing underwriter.  If, after exclusion of all shares sought to be registered by the Company and the Other Stockholders, the managing underwriter further determines that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of Registrable Securities to be registered under this Section 2.1, then Registrable Securities held by Investors shall be excluded in accordance with Section 2.5 to the extent so required by the managing underwriter.  In any event, all securities to be sold other than Registrable Securities shall be excluded prior to any exclusion of Registrable Securities.  No Registrable Securities or other securities, in either case, excluded from the underwriting by reason of the underwriter’s marketing limitation shall be included in such registration.  If any of the Holders who have requested inclusion in such registration as provided above, disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, then such Holders may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter.  The securities so withdrawn shall also be withdrawn from registration.  The Company shall not include, and shall not permit other holders of its securities to include, any securities in such Demand Registration other than securities of the same class or series as the Registrable Securities to which the demand has been made pursuant to Section 2.1.

 

2.1.5                     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to the Holders requesting a Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 2.1, a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such Registration Statement to be filed and it is therefore essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement, the Company shall have the right to defer taking action with respect to such filing for a period of not more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request of the Initiating Holders; provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than once in any twelve-month period.

 

2.1.6                     In addition, the Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any registration pursuant to this Section 2.1:

 

2.1.6.1           After the Company has effected two registrations pursuant to this Section 2.1 which covers all the Registrable Securities sought to be included in such registrations and such registrations have been declared or ordered effective; or

 

2.1.6.2           During the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on a date one hundred eighty (180) days after the effective date of, a registration subject to Section 2.2 hereof; provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective; or

 

2.1.6.3           If the Initiating Holders propose to dispose of shares of Registrable Securities that may be immediately registered on Form S-3 pursuant to a request made pursuant to Section 2.3 below.

 

2.2                               Piggy-Back Registration.

 

2.2.1                     If the Company at any time (other than pursuant to Section 2.1 or Section 2.3) proposes to register any of its securities under the Securities Act for sale to the public, whether for its own account or for the account of other stockholders of the Company or both (except with respect to (i) Registration Statements on Forms S-4, S-8 or any successor to such forms, or (ii) any Registration Statement including only securities issued pursuant to a dividend reinvestment plan), each such time the Company shall promptly give written notice to the holders of Registrable

 

88











 

Securities of its intention to do so (the “Piggy-Back Notice”).  Upon the written request of Holders of at least twenty percent (20%) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding, received by the Company within twenty (20) days after the delivery of such Piggy-Back Notice by the Company in accordance with Section 3.6, to register any or all of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities as to which registration shall have been so requested to be included in such Registration Statement.  If the Registration Statement relates to an underwritten public offering, the Company shall so advise the holders of Registrable Securities as a part of a Piggy-Back Notice.  In such event, each Holder’s right to include Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon its participation in such underwriting to the extent provided herein.  The Holders, if participating in such distribution, shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for underwriting by the Company.

 

2.2.2                     Any request by a Holder for inclusion in any registration may be withdrawn, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement for such offering.

 

2.2.3                     The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration contemplated under this Section 2.2 prior to the effectiveness of such registration, whether or not the Holders have elected to include securities in such registration.  The expenses of such registration shall be borne by the Company, in accordance with Section 2.7 hereof.

 

2.2.4                     There shall be no limitation on the number of registrations a Holder may participate in under this Section 2.2.

 

2.3                               Registration on Form S-3.

 

2.3.1                     If at any time (i) Holders of at least twenty percent (20%) of the Registrable Securities then outstanding request that the Company file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 or any comparable or successor form thereto for a public offering of all or any portion of the Registrable Securities and (ii) the Company is a registrant entitled to use Form S-3 or any successor form thereto to effect the distribution of such Registrable Securities for public sale or resale (as the case may be), then the Company shall promptly give written notice of the proposed registration to all other Holders and shall use its best efforts to register under the Securities Act on Form S-3 or any comparable or successor form thereto, for public sale or resale (as the case may be) in accordance with the method of disposition specified in such notice, the number of Registrable Securities specified in such notice, together with the number of Registrable Securities requested by any other Holder or Holders for inclusion in such registration, received by the Company within fifteen (15) days after delivery of such notice by the Company.  Whenever the Company is required by this Section 2.3 to use its best efforts to effect the registration of Registrable Securities, each of the procedures and requirements of Section 2.1 shall apply to such registration.

 

2.3.2                     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration pursuant to this Section 2.3:

 

2.3.2.1           if Form S-3 is not available for such offering by the Holders;

 

2.3.2.2           if the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at an aggregate price to the public (net of any underwriters’ discounts or commissions) of less than $2,500,000;

 

2.3.2.3           if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board, it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such Form S-3 registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form

 

89











 

S-3 registration statement for a period of not more than sixty (60) days after receipt of the request of the Holder or Holders under this Section 2.3; provided, however, that the Company shall not utilize this right more than once in any twelve month period;

 

2.3.2.4           if the Company has already effected two registrations on Form S-3 for the Holders pursuant to this Section 2.3 within the immediately preceding 12 month period; or

 

2.3.2.5           in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to do business or to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification or compliance.

 

2.3.3                     Subject to Section 2.3(b), there shall be no limitation on the number of registrations on Form S-3 which may be requested and obtained under this Section 2.3.

 

2.4                               Registration Procedures.  If and whenever the Company is required by the provisions of Sections 2.1, 2.2 or 2.3 to use its best efforts to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act, the Company shall, as expeditiously as possible:

 

2.4.1                     Prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement on the applicable form with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become and remain effective until the earlier of (i) the sale of all of the Registrable Securities covered thereby and (ii) two years following the commencement of the offering thereunder; provided, however, that in the case of any registration of Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or on a comparable or successor form which are intended to be offered on a continuous or delayed basis, such two year period shall be extended, if necessary, until all such Registrable Securities are sold, provided that Rule 415 or any successor rule under the Securities Act permits an offering on a continuous or delayed basis; and provided, further, that, as soon as practicable but in no event later than five (5) Business Days before filing such Registration Statement, any related prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto (other than any amendment or supplement made solely as a result of incorporation by reference of documents filed with the Commission subsequent to the filing of such Registration Statement), the Company shall furnish to the underwriters, if any, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents shall be subject to review by any such underwriters;

 

2.4.2                     Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective for the period specified herein and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement in accordance with the sellers’ intended method of disposition set forth in such Registration Statement for such period; provided, that the Company shall comply with the provisions of Section 2.4.1 above;

2.4.4                     Use its best efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement under the securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions as the sellers of the Registrable Securities or, in the case of an underwritten public offering, the managing underwriter reasonably shall request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify to transact business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is not so qualified, (ii) consent to general service of process or (iii) submit to taxation in any such jurisdiction, unless the Company is already subject to service or subject to taxation in such jurisdiction;

 

90

2.4.8                     If the offering is underwritten, and at each Holder’s request, use its best efforts to furnish on the date that Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale pursuant to such registration (i) an opinion, dated such date, of counsel to the Company, addressed to the underwriters and the Holders, to such effect as reasonably may be requested by the underwriters, and (ii) a letter, dated such date, from the independent public accountants retained by the Company, addressed to the underwriters and, if applicable, the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, and deliver copies of such letter to such Holders;

2.4.12              Use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness and, if such order is issued, obtain the withdrawal of any such order as soon as reasonably possible; and

 

2.4.13              Otherwise use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act

 

91











 

and take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to facilitate the registration of the Registrable Securities hereunder; and make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, but not later than the Availability Date (as defined below), an earnings statement covering a period of at least twelve (12) months, beginning after the effective date of each Registration Statement, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act (for the purpose of this Section 2.4(m), “Availability Date” means the forty-fifth (45th) day following the end of the fourth fiscal quarter that includes the effective date of such Registration Statement, except that, if such fourth fiscal quarter is the last quarter of the Company’s fiscal year, “Availability Date” means the ninetieth (90th) day after the end of such fourth fiscal quarter).

 

2.5                               Underwriting Requirements.  In connection with any offering involving an underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock, the Company shall not be required to include any of the Registrable Securities in such underwriting unless the Holders accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and its underwriters, and then only in such quantity as the underwriters, in their sole discretion, determine will not jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company.  If the total number of securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by stockholders to be included in such offering exceeds the number of securities to be sold (other than by the Company), that the underwriters in their reasonable discretion determine is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such securities, including Registrable Securities, which the underwriters and the Company in their sole discretion determine will not jeopardize the success of the offering.  If the underwriters determine that less than all of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered can be included in such offering, then the Registrable Securities that are included in such offering shall be allocated among the selling Holders in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the number of Registrable Securities owned by each selling Holder or in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by all such selling Holders.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall (i) the number of Registrable Securities, held by Investors included in the offering, be reduced unless all other securities (including Registrable Securities held by Other Stockholders) are first entirely excluded from the offering, and (ii), subject to the immediately preceding clause (i), the number of Registrable Securities, held by Other Stockholders included in the offering, be reduced unless all other securities (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, the Registrable Securities held by the Investors and any securities held by the Company) are first entirely reduced to zero.

 

2.6                               Deemed Underwriter.  The Company agrees that, if an Investor or any of its Affiliates (each an “Investor Entity”) could reasonably be deemed to be an “underwriter,” as defined in Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act, in connection with any registration of the Company’s securities pursuant to this Agreement, and any amendment or supplement thereof (any such registration statement or amendment or supplement a “Investor Underwriter Registration Statement”), then the Company will cooperate with such Investor Entity in allowing such Investor Entity to conduct customary “underwriter’s due diligence” with respect to the Company and satisfy its obligations in respect thereof.  In addition, at such Investor’s request, the Company will furnish to such Investor, on the date of the effectiveness of any Investor Underwriter Registration Statement and thereafter from time to time on such dates as such Investor may reasonably request (a) a letter, dated such date, from the Company’s independent certified public accountants in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to such Investor, and (b) an opinion, dated as of such date, of counsel representing the Company for purposes of such Investor Underwriter Registration Statement, in form, scope and substance as is customarily given in an underwritten public offering, including, without limitation, a standard “10b-5” statement for such offering, addressed to such Investor.  The Company will also permit legal counsel to such Investor to review and comment upon any such Investor Underwriter Registration Statement at least five business days prior to its filing with the Commission and all amendments and supplements to any such Investor Underwriter Registration Statement within a reasonable number of days prior to their filing with the Commission and not file any Investor Underwriter Registration Statement or amendment or supplement thereto in a form to which such Investor’s legal counsel reasonably objects.

2.7                               Expenses.  The Company shall bear all reasonable expenses incurred in complying with Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees (exclusive of underwriting discounts and commissions attributable to the Registrable Securities being registered pursuant to the exercise of demand rights in accordance with Section 2.1 and fees of legal counsel other than one counsel for all selling Holders to be selected by the majority of the selling Holders), printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel and independent public accountants for the Company, fees and expenses (including counsel fees) incurred in connection with complying with state securities or “blue sky” laws, reasonable fees and disbursements of transfer agents and registrars and costs of any insurance which might be obtained by the Company with respect to the offering by the Company.

 

2.8                               Indemnification and Contribution.

 

2.8.1                     The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless, each Holder and its Affiliates and the directors, officers, employees, investors, partners and agents of each Holder and its Affiliates, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney fees and disbursements and other expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim or proceeding, pending or threatened and the costs of enforcement hereof) (collectively, “Losses”) to which any such Person may become subject, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement covering any Registrable Securities, any related prospectus or preliminary prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission to state, in any thereof, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus or prospectus supplement, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, except in each case insofar, but only insofar, as the same arises out of, or is based upon, an untrue statement, or alleged untrue statement, of a material fact or an omission, or alleged omission, to state a material fact in such Registration Statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, amendment or supplement, as the case may be, made or omitted, as the case may be, in express reliance upon and in strict conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Holder expressly for use therein.  This indemnity is in addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have.  The Company shall also indemnify any underwriters of the Registrable Securities, selling brokers, dealer managers and similar securities industry professionals participating in the distribution and their officers and directors and each Person who controls such underwriters or other Persons (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holder and its Affiliates as described above.

 

2.8.2                     In connection with any Registration Statement covering Registrable Securities, each Holder shall furnish to the Company, in writing, such information with respect to the Holder as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with such Registration Statement, any related Prospectus or preliminary prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, and shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, the Company’s directors, officers, employees and agents, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act), against all Losses arising out of, or based upon, any untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement covering any Registrable Securities, any related Prospectus or preliminary prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission to state in any such prospectus, amendment or supplement, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus or prospectus supplement, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, in each case to the extent, and only to the extent, that the same arises out of, or is based upon, an untrue statement of a material fact or an omission to state a material fact in such Registration Statement or in such related Prospectus, preliminary prospectus, amendment or supplement, as the case may be, made or omitted, as the case may be, in express reliance upon and in strict conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Holder expressly for use therein.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in no event shall the Holder’s indemnification obligation exceed the dollar amount of the proceeds received by the Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such

 

93












 

obligation.

 

2.8.3                     Promptly after receipt by any Person (the “Indemnified Person”) of notice of any demand, claim or circumstances which would or might give rise to a claim or the commencement of any action, proceeding or investigation in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 2.8, such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the party obligated to provide indemnification under this Section 2.8 in respect thereof (an “Indemnifying Party”) and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, and shall assume the payment of all fees and expenses in connection with such defense and such counsel; provided, however, that the failure of any Indemnified Person to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced by such failure to notify.  In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless: (i) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel; or (ii) in the reasonable judgment of counsel to such Indemnified Person (x) representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them or (y) if there are one or more defenses available to such Indemnified Person that is/are not available to the Indemnifying Party.  The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, but if settled with such consent, or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff therein, the Indemnifying Party shall indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Person from and against any Losses by reason of such settlement or judgment.  Without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, the Indemnifying Party shall not effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such proceeding.

 

2.8.4                     (i) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.8 from the Indemnifying Party is unavailable to an Indemnified Person hereunder or is inadequate in respect of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Section 2.8, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Person(s) in connection with the actions that resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Person shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Persons, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the Losses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.8(c), any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding.

 

(ii)                                The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph.  Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, in no event shall the Holder’s contribution obligation exceed the excess of (A) the dollar amount of the proceeds received by the Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such contribution obligation over or (B) the dollar amount of any damages that the Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of the untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission giving rise to such obligation. 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

 

94











 

fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

(iii)                               If any provision of an indemnification or contribution clause in an underwriting agreement or agency agreement executed by or on behalf of the Holder differs from a provision in this Section 2.8, such provision in the underwriting agreement shall determine the Holder’s rights in respect thereof.

 

2.8.5                     Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the indemnities and obligations provided in this Section 2.8 shall survive the transfer of any Registrable Securities by the Holder.

 

2.9                               Reporting.  With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may at any time permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, so long as the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Company shall:

 

2.9.1                     make and keep public information available, as contemplated in Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule); and

 

2.9.2                     use its best efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

 

2.10                        Furnishing Information.  It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Article II that each Holder furnish to the Company in writing such information regarding such Holder, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect the registration thereof.

 

2.11                        Additional Registration Rights.  The Company shall not, after the date hereof, enter into any agreement providing any registration rights to any of its security holders or potential security holders, without the prior written consent of the Requisite Investors.

 

2.12                        Restrictions on Transfer.

 

2.12.1              Each Holder agrees not to make any disposition of all or any portion of the Registrable Securities unless and until:

 

2.12.1.1    there is then in effect a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and such disposition is made in accordance with the “Plan of Distribution” contained in such registration statement;

 

2.12.1.2    (A) the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, (B) such Holder shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed statement of the circumstances surrounding the proposed disposition, and (C) if reasonably requested by the Company, such Holder shall have furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such disposition will not require registration of such shares under the Securities Act; or

 

2.12.1.3    the Registrable Securities are then eligible for transfer pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. Furthermore, it is agreed that the Company will not require opinions of counsel for transactions made pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

 

2.12.2              Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) above, no such restriction shall apply to a transfer by a Holder that is (A) a partnership transferring to its partners or former partners in accordance with partnership interests, (B) a corporation transferring to a parent corporation that owns a majority of the capital stock of the Holder, to a majority-owned subsidiary, or

 

95











 

to an affiliate under common control with the Holder, (C) a limited liability company transferring to its members or former members in accordance with their interest in the limited liability company, (D) a Holder transferring to its affiliated venture capital fund or affiliated trust, (E) an individual transferring to the Holder’s family member or trust for the benefit of an individual Holder, (F) a trust transferring to a trust beneficiary or affiliated trust or (G) a Holder transferring to any transferee that is a Major Investor, provided that the Company is given written notice thereof; provided that in each case the transferee will agree in writing to be subject to the terms of this Agreement to the same extent as if he were an original Holder hereunder.

 

2.12.3              So long as the Registrable Securities are not (i) covered by an effective registration statement; and/or (ii) eligible for transfer pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, each certificate representing Registrable Securities shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with legends substantially similar to the following (in addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws):

 

THE SALE, PLEDGE, HYPOTHECATION OR TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF A CERTAIN INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT BY AND BETWEEN THE STOCKHOLDERS AND THE COMPANY.  ANY INDIVIDUAL AND/OR ENTITY ACCEPTING ANY INTEREST IN SUCH SECURITIES SHALL BE DEEMED TO AGREE TO AND SHALL BECOME BOUND BY ALL RESTRICTIONS AND OBLIGATIONS UNDER SUCH AGREEMENT.  COPIES OF SUCH AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.

 

2.12.4              For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.12 shall not apply to any transfer by a Holder of any Notes or Options held by it in accordance with the terms of the Deed.

 

2.13                        Lock-Up Agreement.

 

2.13.1              Lock-Up Period; Agreement.

 

2.13.1.1    In connection with the Initial U.S. Public Offering of the Company’s securities and upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing such offering of the Company’s securities, each Holder agrees not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company, however or whenever acquired (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed 180 days but subject to such extension or extensions as may be required by the underwriters in order to publish research reports while complying with the Rule 2711 of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.) from the effective date of such registration statement as may be requested by the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the Company’s Initial U.S. Public Offering.

 

2.13.1.2    In connection with the Initial U.S. Public Offering of the Company’s shares of Common Stock and upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing such offering of the Company’s shares of Common Stock, each holder of Registrable Securities agrees to execute a lockup agreement as may be reasonably requested by any such underwriters.

 

2.13.2              Limitations.  The obligations described in Section 2.13(a) shall not apply to shares of the Company’s Common Stock acquired in the Company’s Initial U.S. Public Offering or to shares of the Company’s Common Stock acquired in the public market following such Initial U.S. Public Offering.  In addition, the obligations described in Section 2.13(a) shall apply only

 

96











 

if all officers and directors of the Company and all greater than 1% stockholders enter into similar agreements.

 

2.13.3              Stop-Transfer Instructions.  In order to enforce the foregoing covenants the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the shares of Common Stock of each Holder (and the shares of Common Stock of every other person subject to the restrictions in Section 2.13(a).

 

2.13.4              Transferees Bound.  Each Holder agrees that prior to the Company’s Initial U.S. Public Offering it will not transfer Registrable Securities of the Company unless each transferee agrees in writing to be bound by all relevant provisions of this Section 2.13.

 

2.13.5              Each Holder agrees that, until the expiration of the lock-up period in connection with the Initial U.S. Public Offering in accordance with Section 2.13(a), a legend reading substantially as follows shall be placed on all certificates representing all Registrable Securities of each Holder (and the shares of Common Stock or securities of every other person subject to the relevant restrictions contained in this Section 2.13):

 

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO A LOCK-UP PERIOD OF UP TO 180 DAYS AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE ISSUER’S REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILED UNDER THE ACT, AS AMENDED, AS SET FORTH IN AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SECURITIES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE ISSUER’S PRINCIPAL OFFICE.  SUCH LOCK-UP PERIOD IS BINDING ON TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES.

 

3.                                      MISCELLANEOUS.

For purposes of this Section 3.2, a “Sale of the Company” shall include a sale, lease, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or business or the Company’s merger into or consolidation with any other corporation or other entity, or any other corporate reorganization, in which the holders of the Company’s outstanding voting stock immediately prior to such transaction own, immediately after such transaction, securities representing less than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the corporation or other entity surviving such transaction, provided that a Sale of the Company shall not include a merger effected exclusively for the purpose of changing the domicile of the Company or a sale of shares by the Company for primarily equity financing purposes.

 

3.3                               Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement may not be assigned by a party hereto without the prior written consent of the Company or the Requisite Investors; provided, however, that an Investor may assign its rights and delegate its duties hereunder in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the Company or the Requisite Investors, to an Affiliate and to any Person to whom such investor transfers (a) any of the Registrable Securities or (b) any Notes or Options transferred in accordance with the terms of the Deed; provided, that, no such assignment shall be effective or confer any right on any such assignee unless, prior to such assignment, the assignee agrees in writing that such assignee will be bound by all provisions binding on such Investor.  The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective permitted successors and assigns of the parties.  Except for any other provisions of this Agreement expressly to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other

 

97











 

than the parties hereto or their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations, or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.

3.9                               Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof but shall be interpreted as if it were written so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereby waive any provision of law which renders any provision hereof prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.

 

3.10                        Entire Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, including but not limited to the Prior Agreement.

3.11                        Further Assurances.

Each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York located in New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for the purpose of any suit, action, proceeding or judgment relating to or arising out of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.  Service of process in connection with any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on each party hereto anywhere in the world by the same methods as are specified for the giving of notices under this Agreement.

3.13                        Independent Nature of Investors’ Obligations and Rights.  Except as expressly provided herein and therein, the obligations of each Investor under this Agreement, are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Investor under this Agreement.  Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  Each Investor acknowledges that no other Investor has acted as agent for such Investor in connection with making its investment in the Registrable Securities and that no Investor will be acting as agent of such Investor in connection with monitoring its investment in the Registrable Securities or enforcing its rights under this Agreement.  Each Investor shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.
