Demand Registration Rights At any time after the date two years after the Closing Date, the holders of a majority of the shares of VPI Stock issued to the Founding Stockholders pursuant to this Agreement and the Other Agreements which have not been previously registered or sold and which are not entitled to be sold under Rule 144(k) (or any similar or successor provision) promulgated under the 1933 Act may request in writing (the "Demand Registration Request") that VPI file a registration statement under the 1933 Act covering the registration of up to all of the shares of VPI Stock issued to the STOCKHOLDERS pursuant to this Agreement and the Other Agreements then held by such Founding Stockholders (a "Demand Registration"). Within ten (10) days of the receipt of the Demand Registration Request, VPI shall give written notice of such request to all other Founding Stockholders and shall, as soon as practicable but in no event later than 45 days after the Demand Registration Request, file and use its best efforts to cause to become effective a registration statement covering all shares requested to be registered pursuant to this Section 17.2. VPI shall be obligated to effect only one Demand Registration for all Founding Stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, following the Demand Registration Request a majority of VPI's disinterested directors (i.e., directors who have not demanded or elected to sell shares in any such public offering) may defer the filing of the registration statement for a 60-day period if such deferral is deemed by such directors to be in the best interests of VPI. If immediately prior to the Demand Registration Request VPI has fixed plans to file within 60 days after receipt of the Demand Registration Request a registration statement covering the sale of any of its securities in a public offering under the 1933 Act, no registration of the Founding Stockholders' VPI Stock shall be initiated under this Section 17.2 until 90 days after the effective date of such registration unless VPI is no longer proceeding diligently to effect such registration (in which case the delay contemplated by this sentence would not be applicable); provided that VPI shall provide the Founding Stockholders the right to participate in such public offering pursuant to, and subject to, Section 17.1 hereof.
Piggy-Back Registration Rights If, at any time on or prior to the first anniversary of the Expiration Time, the Company (or any successor of the Company, by merger or otherwise) proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering by the Company or any other party of any class of equity security similar to any Registerable Securities (other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor form or a registration statement filed solely in connection with an exchange offer, a business combination transaction or an offering of securities solely to the existing shareholders or employees of the Company), then the Company, on each such occasion, shall give written notice (each, a “Company Piggy-Back Notice”) of such proposed filing to all of the Rightsholders owning Registerable Securities at least twenty days before the anticipated filing date of such registration statement, and such Company Piggy-Back Notice also shall be required to offer to such Rightsholders the opportunity to register such aggregate number of Registerable Securities as each such Rightsholder may request. Each such Rightsholder shall have the right, exercisable for the fifteen days immediately following the giving of a Company Piggy-Back Notice, to request, by written notice (each, a “Holder Notice”) to the Company, the inclusion of all or any portion of the Registerable Securities of such Rightsholders in such registration statement. The Company shall use commercially best efforts to cause the managing underwriter(s) of a proposed underwritten offering to permit the inclusion of the Registerable Securities which were the subject of all Holder Notices in such underwritten offering on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company included therein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subparagraph 10(b)(i), if the managing underwriter(s) of such underwritten offering or any proposed underwritten offering delivers a written opinion to the Rightsholders of Registerable Securities which were the subject of all Holder Notices that the total amount and kind of securities which they, the Company and any other person intend to include in such offering is such as to materially and adversely affect the success of such offering, then the amount of securities to be offered for the accounts of such Rightsholders and persons other than the Company shall be eliminated or reduced pro rata (based on the amount of securities owned by such Rightsholders and other persons which carry registration rights) to the extent necessary to reduce the total amount of securities to be included in such offering to the amount recommended by such managing underwriter(s) in the managing underwriter’s written opinion.
Registration of Registrable Securities The Company will file with the Commission, within 30 days following the date hereof, a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement") to register the resale of the Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants. The Company will use its best efforts to cause the Registration Statement to become effective within (i) 90 days of the Date hereof, (ii) ten (10) days following the receipt of a "No Review" or similar letter from the Commission or (iii) the first day following the day the Commission determines the Registration Statement eligible to be declared effective (the "Required Effectiveness Date"). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit the number of Registrable Securities to be registered by the Company hereunder. As a result, should the Registration Statement not relate to the maximum number of Registrable Securities acquired by (or potentially acquirable by) the holders thereof upon conversion of the Preferred Stock, or exercise of the Common Stock Purchase Warrants described in Section 1 above, the Company shall be required to promptly file a separate registration statement (utilizing Rule 462 promulgated under the Exchange Act, where applicable) relating to such Registrable Securities which then remain unregistered. The provisions of this Agreement shall relate to any such separate registration statement as if it were an amendment to the Registration Statement.
Demand Registration (a) At any time following the expiration of the Disposition Restriction Period, if the Company is unable to file, cause to be effective or maintain the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement as required under Section 5.1 hereof, the Investors’ Representative shall have the right, by delivering a written notice to the Company (a “Demand Notice”), to require the Company to register under and in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act the number of Registrable Securities Beneficially Owned by any Investors and requested by such Demand Notice to be so registered (a “Demand Registration”); provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to effect more than two (2) Demand Registrations for underwritten offerings pursuant to this Section 5.2(a); and, provided, further, that the Investors shall not be entitled to deliver to the Company more than one (1) Demand Registration in any twelve (12) month period and, in any event, a Demand Notice may only be made if the sale of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered by the Investors’ Representative is reasonably expected to result in aggregate gross cash proceeds in excess of $100,000,000 (without regard to any underwriting discount or commission); and provided, further that the Investors shall not be entitled to request more than two (2) Company Supported Distributions in the aggregate (including underwritten Demand Registrations). A Demand Notice shall also specify the expected method or methods of disposition of the applicable Registrable Securities. Following receipt of a Demand Notice, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to file, as promptly as reasonably practicable, but not later than 30 days after receipt by the Company of such Demand Notice, a Registration Statement relating to the offer and sale of the Registrable Securities requested to be included therein by the Investors thereof in accordance with the methods of distribution elected by such Investors (a “Demand Registration Statement”) and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof, it being agreed that if any Investor intends to distribute any Registrable Securities by means of an underwritten offering it shall promptly so advise the Company and the Company shall cooperate with such Investor to facilitate such distribution, including but not limited to the actions required pursuant to Section 5.5(a)(viii) and, if a Company Supported Distribution is requested, Section 5.5(a)(xiv).
Piggyback Registration Rights To the extent the Company does not maintain an effective registration statement for the Warrant Shares and in the further event that the Company files a registration statement with the Commission covering the sale of its shares of Common Stock (other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or S-8, or on another form, or in another context, in which such “piggyback” registration would be inappropriate), then, for a period commencing on the Initial Exercise Date and terminating on the second (2nd) anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date, the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to the holders of Warrant Shares as soon as practicable but in no event less than ten (10) business days before the anticipated filing date, which notice shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing underwriter or underwriters, if any, of the offering, and offer to the holders of Warrant Shares in such notice the opportunity to register the sale of such number of shares of Warrant Shares as such holders may request in writing within five (5) business days after receipt of such notice (a “Piggyback Registration”). The Company shall cause such Warrant Shares to be included in such registration and shall use its best efforts to cause the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering to permit the Warrant Shares requested to be included in a Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Warrant Shares in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All holders of Warrant Shares proposing to distribute their securities through a Piggyback Registration that involves an underwriter or underwriters shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such Piggyback Registration.
Effective Demand Registration The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such Demand Registration to become and remain effective not later than sixty (60) days after it receives a request under Section 3(a) hereof. A registration shall not constitute a Demand Registration until it has become effective and remains continuously effective for the lesser of (i) the period during which all Registrable Securities registered in the Demand Registration are sold and (ii) 120 days; provided, however, that a registration shall not constitute a Demand Registration if (x) after such Demand Registration has become effective, such registration or the related offer, sale or distribution of Registrable Securities thereunder is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the Commission or other governmental agency or court for any reason not attributable to the Initiating Holders and such interference is not thereafter eliminated or (y) the conditions specified in the underwriting agreement, if any, entered into in connection with such Demand Registration are not satisfied or waived, other than by reason of a failure by the Initiating Holder.
Additional Registration Rights If Issuer at any time after the exercise of the Option proposes to register any shares of Issuer Common Stock under the Securities Act in connection with an underwritten public offering of such Issuer Common Stock, Issuer will promptly give written notice to Grantee of its intention to do so and, upon the written request of any Selling Stockholder given within 30 days after receipt of any such notice (which request shall specify the number of shares of Issuer Common Stock intended to be included in such underwritten public offering by the Selling Stockholder), Issuer will cause all such shares for which a Selling Stockholder requests participation in such registration to be so registered and included in such underwritten public offering; provided, however, that Issuer may elect to not cause any such shares to be so registered (i) if in the reasonable good faith opinion of the underwriters for such offering, the inclusion of all such shares by the Selling Stockholder would materially interfere with the marketing of such offering (in which case Issuer shall register as many shares as possible without materially interfering with the marketing of the offering), or (ii) in the case of a registration solely to implement an employee benefit plan or a registration filed on Form S-4 of the Securities Act or any successor Form. If some but not all the shares of Issuer Common Stock with respect to which Issuer shall have received requests for registration pursuant to this Section 10(b) shall be excluded from such registration, Issuer shall make appropriate allocation of shares to be registered among the Selling Stockholders desiring to register their shares pro rata in the proportion that the number of shares requested to be registered by each such Selling Stockholder bears to the total number of shares requested to be registered by all such Selling Stockholders then desiring to have Issuer Common Stock registered for sale.
Unlimited Piggy-Back Registration Rights For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof shall not be counted as a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration effected under Section 2.1 hereof.
Unlimited Piggyback Registration Rights For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof shall not be counted as a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration effected under Section 2.1 hereof.
Demand Registrations Subject to the provisions of Section 2.1, this Section 3.1 and Section 3.5, any Demand Holder (the “Initiating Holders”) may from time to time make a written request (a “Demand Request”) for (i) registration under the Securities Act on Form S-1 or any similar long-form registration statement of all or any portion of Registrable Securities or (ii) if the Issuer is then eligible to use Form S-3, a Shelf Registration of all or any portion of Registrable Securities under the Securities Act (a “Demand Registration”). No Demand Registration will be consummated (and no registration statement with respect thereto will be filed) if the number of Registrable Securities requested to be registered is fewer than such number of shares of Class A Common Stock that have a value (based on the closing price on the trading day immediately prior to the filing of the registration statement or prospectus supplement, as applicable) of $50,000,000. Demand Requests shall specify the amount of Registrable Securities to be registered and the intended method or methods of disposition. The Issuer shall, subject to the provisions of this Article III and to the other Parties’ compliance with their obligations under the provisions of this Agreement, use its reasonable best efforts to file a registration statement registering all Registrable Securities included in such Demand Request for disposition in accordance with the intended method or methods set forth therein as promptly as possible following receipt of a Demand Request. The Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement, including in the case of a Shelf Registration, a subsequent Registration Statement, to be declared effective as soon as practicable after filing and to remain effective until the earlier of (a) ninety (90) days following the date on which it was declared effective, in the case of an underwritten offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 and (b) the date on which all of the Registrable Securities covered thereby are disposed of in accordance with the method or methods of disposition stated therein. Subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 3.1, the Demand Holders shall be entitled to request an unlimited number of Demand Registrations.
