(c)         In the event that not all of the Major Investors elect to purchase their pro rata share of the Key Holder Stock available pursuant to their rights under Section 2.2(a) within the time period set forth therein, then the Key Holder shall promptly give written notice to each of the Participating Major Investors the (the “Overallotment Notice”), which shall set forth the number of shares of Key Holder Stock not purchased by the other Major Investors, and shall offer such Participating Major Investors the right to acquire such unsubscribed shares. The Participating Major Investors shall have five (5) days after receipt of the Overallotment Notice to deliver a written notice to the Key Holder of their respective election to purchase their respective pro rata share of the unsubscribed shares on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Notice. For purposes of this Section 2.2(c) the denominator described in clause (ii) of subsection 2.2(b) above shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock owned by all Participating Major Investors at the time of Transfer.

The Company shall then have the right, exercisable upon written notice to the Key Holder within ten (10) days after the receipt of the Second Notice, to purchase all or a portion of the Key Holder Stock subject to the Second Notice on the same terms and conditions as set forth therein. The Company shall effect the purchase of the Key Holder Stock, including payment of the purchase price, by the later of (i) the date specified in the Second Notice as the intended date of the Transfer or (ii) thirty (30) days after delivery of the Second Notice, and at such time the Key Holder shall deliver to the Company the certificate(s) representing the Key Holder Stock to be purchased by the Company, each certificate to be properly endorsed for transfer.

2.4          Right of Co-Sale.

 

(a)         In the event the Major Investors and the Company fail to exercise their respective rights to purchase all of the Key Holder Stock subject to Sections 2.2 and 2.3 hereof, following the exercise or expiration of the rights of purchase set forth in Section 2.3, then the Key Holder shall first deliver to the Company and each Major Investor written notice (the “Co-Sale Notice”) that each Major Investor shall have the right, exercisable upon written notice to such Key Holder with a copy to the Company within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Co-Sale Notice, to participate in such Transfer of Key Holder Stock on the same terms and conditions. Such notice shall indicate the number of shares of Investor Stock up to that number of shares determined under Section 2.4(b) such Major Investor wishes to sell under his or her right to participate. To the extent one or more of the Major Investors exercise such right of participation in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below, the number of shares of Key Holder Stock that such Key Holder may sell in the transaction shall be correspondingly reduced.

 

(b)         Each Major Investor shall have the right to sell all or any part of that number of shares equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the aggregate number of shares of Key Holder Stock covered by the Co-Sale Notice and not purchased by the Major Investors or the Company pursuant to Sections 2.2 or 2.3 by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock owned (or deemed to be owned upon conversion of the Preferred) by such Major Investor at the time of the Transfer and the denominator of which is the total number of shares of Common Stock owned (or deemed to be owned upon conversion of the Preferred) by such Key Holder (excluding shares purchased by the Major Investors or the Company pursuant to Sections 2.2 or 2.3) and the Major Investors at the time of the Transfer. If not all of the Major Investors elect to sell their shares of capital stock proposed to be transferred within said fifteen (15) day period, then the Key Holder shall promptly notify in writing the Major Investors who do so elect and shall offer such Major Investors the additional right to participate in the sale of such additional shares of Key Holder Stock proposed to be transferred on the same percentage basis as set forth above in this subsection 2.4(b). The Major Investors shall have five (5) days after receipt of such notice to notify the Key Holder in writing with a copy to the Company of their respective election to sell all or a portion thereof of the unsubscribed shares.

 

(c)         Each Major Investor who elects to participate in the Transfer pursuant to this Section 2.4 (a “Co-Sale Participant”) shall effect its participation in the Transfer by promptly delivering to such Key Holder, for transfer to the prospective purchaser, one or more certificates, properly endorsed for transfer, which represent:

 

(i)        the type and number of shares of Common Stock which such Co-Sale Participant elects to sell; or

 

(ii)       that number of shares of the Preferred which is at such time convertible into the number of shares of Common Stock which such Co-Sale Participant elects to sell; provided, however, that if the prospective purchaser objects to the delivery of the Preferred in lieu of Common Stock, such Co-Sale Participant shall convert such Preferred into Common Stock and deliver Common Stock as provided in Section 2.4(c)(i) above. The Company agrees to make any such conversion concurrent with the actual transfer of such shares to the purchaser.

 

 4 

 

 

(d)         The stock certificate or certificates that the Co-Sale Participant delivers to such Key Holder pursuant to Section 2.4(c) shall be transferred to the prospective purchaser in consummation of the sale of the Common Stock pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in the Co-Sale Notice, and the Key Holder shall concurrently therewith remit to such Co-Sale Participant that portion of the sale proceeds to which such Co-Sale Participant is entitled by reason of its participation in such sale. To the extent that any prospective purchaser or purchasers prohibits such assignment or otherwise refuses to purchase shares or other securities from a Co-Sale Participant exercising its rights of co-sale hereunder, such Key Holder shall not sell to such prospective purchaser or purchasers any Key Holder Stock unless and until, simultaneously with such sale, such Key Holder shall purchase such shares or other securities from such Co-Sale Participant on the same terms and conditions specified in the Co-Sale Notice.

 

(e)         The exercise or non-exercise of the rights of the Major Investors hereunder to participate in one or more Transfers of Key Holder Stock made by such Key Holder shall not adversely affect their rights to participate in subsequent Transfers of Key Holder Stock subject to Section 2.

 

(f)          To the extent that the Major Investors do not elect to participate in the sale of the Key Holder Stock subject to the Co-Sale Notice, such Key Holder may, not later than ninety (90) days following delivery to the Company of the Co-Sale Notice, enter into an agreement providing for the closing of the Transfer of such Key Holder Stock covered by the Co-Sale Notice within thirty (30) days of such agreement on terms and conditions not more materially favorable to the transferor than those described in the Co-Sale Notice. Any proposed Transfer on terms and conditions materially more favorable than those described in the Co-Sale Notice, as well as any subsequent proposed Transfer of any of the Key Holder Stock by a Key Holder, shall again be subject to the first refusal and co-sale rights of the Major Investors and/or the Company and shall require compliance by a Key Holder with the procedures described in this Section 2.
