Participation Rights No HIG Stockholder may make a Transfer of Series C Preferred Stock pursuant to clause (a)(iv) of Section 2.1 unless such HIG Stockholder complies with the provisions of this Section 2.3. The transferring HIG Stockholder (the “Transferring Stockholder”) shall deliver a written notice (the “Offer Notice”) to the Company and to each Sankaty Stockholder that holds Series C Preferred Stock. The Offer Notice will disclose in reasonable detail the proposed number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock to be transferred, the proposed price, terms and conditions of the Transfer and the identity of the transferee. Each of the Sankaty Stockholders holding Series C Preferred Stock may elect to participate in the contemplated sale by delivering written notice to the Transferring Stockholder within 10 days after receipt of the Offer Notice. If any of such Sankaty Stockholders elects to participate in such sale (the “Participating Stockholders”), each of the Transferring Stockholder and the Participating Stockholders will be entitled to sell in the contemplated sale a number of shares of Preferred Stock equal to the product of (i) the fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock held by such Person, and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of Series C Preferred Stock owned by the Transferring Stockholder and the Participating Stockholders, multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock to be sold by the Transferring Stockholder and the Participating Stockholders in the contemplated sale. As a condition to any Transfer by the Transferring Stockholder, the Transferring Stockholder must obtain the agreement of the prospective transferee(s) to the participation of all Participating Stockholders in any contemplated sale and will not transfer any of its Securities to the prospective transferee(s) if the prospective transferee(s) declines to allow the participation of the Participating Stockholders on the terms specified herein.
Right of Participation At any time within the 12 months subsequent to the Closing, upon any issuance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of debt or Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents for cash consideration, indebtedness or a combination of units thereof (a “Subsequent Financing”), the Purchaser shall have the right to participate in up to its investment amount but not more than 25% of the Subsequent Financing (the “Participation Maximum”) on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the Subsequent Financing. At least five (5) Business Days prior to the closing of the Subsequent Financing, the Company shall deliver to each Purchaser a written notice of its intention to effect a Subsequent Financing (“Pre-Notice”), which Pre-Notice shall ask the Purchaser if it wants to review the details of such financing (such additional notice, a “Subsequent Financing Notice”). Upon the request of a Purchaser, and only upon a request by such Purchaser, for a Subsequent Financing Notice, the Company shall promptly, but no later than one (1) Business Day after such request, deliver a Subsequent Financing Notice to such Purchaser. The Subsequent Financing Notice shall describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Subsequent Financing, the amount of proceeds intended to be raised thereunder and the Person or Persons through or with whom such Subsequent Financing is proposed to be effected and shall include a term sheet or similar document relating thereto as an attachment. A Subsequent Financing shall exclude any equipment financing secured by a purchase money security interest If the Purchaser desires to participate in such Subsequent Financing must provide written notice to the Company by not later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Purchaser has received the Pre-Notice that such Purchaser is willing to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the amount of such Purchaser’s participation, and representing and warranting that such Purchaser has such funds ready, willing, and available for investment on the from the Purchaser as of such fifth (5th) Business Day, the Purchaser shall be deemed to have notified the Company that it does not elect to participate. If by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Purchaser have received the Pre-Notice, notifications by the Purchaser of their willingness to participate in the Subsequent Financing (or to cause their designees to participate) is, in the aggregate, less than the total amount of the Subsequent Financing, then the Company may effect the remaining portion of such Subsequent Financing on the terms and with the Persons set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice. If by 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Purchaser has received the Pre-Notice, the Company receives responses to a Subsequent Financing Notice from Purchaser seeking to purchase more than the aggregate amount of the Participation Maximum, the Purchaser shall have the right to purchase its pro rata portion of the Participation Maximum. The Company must provide the Purchaser with a second Subsequent Financing Notice, and the Purchaser will again have the right of participation set forth above in this Section 4.15, if the Subsequent Financing subject to the initial Subsequent Financing Notice is not consummated for any reason on the terms set forth in such Subsequent Financing Notice within thirty (30) Business Days after the date of the initial Subsequent Financing Notice. The Company and the Purchaser agree that if the Purchaser elects to participate in the Subsequent Financing, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the transaction documents related to the Subsequent Financing shall not include any term or provision whereby such Purchaser shall be required to agree to any restrictions on trading as to any of the Securities purchased hereunder or be required to consent to any amendment to or termination of, or grant any waiver, release or the like under or in terms set forth in the Subsequent Financing Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.15and unless otherwise agreed to by the Purchaser, the Company shall either confirm in writing to the Purchaser that the transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been abandoned or shall publicly disclose its intention to issue the securities in the Subsequent Financing, in either case in such a manner such that the Purchaser will not be in possession of any material, non-public information, by the tenth (10th) Business Day following delivery of the Subsequent Financing Notice. If by such tenth (10th) Business Day, no public disclosure regarding a transaction with respect to the Subsequent Financing has been made, and no notice regarding the abandonment of such transaction has been received by the Purchaser, such transaction shall be deemed to have been abandoned and the Purchaser shall not be deemed to be in possession of any material, non-public information with respect to the Company or any Subsequent Financing.
