Preemptive Rights Sample Clauses
Preemptive rights are provisions that grant existing shareholders the first opportunity to purchase additional shares in a company before those shares are offered to external investors. In practice, when a company issues new stock, shareholders with preemptive rights can buy a proportional amount to maintain their ownership percentage. This clause is designed to protect shareholders from dilution of their ownership and voting power, ensuring they can retain their influence in the company as it raises new capital.

Preemptive Rights. If at any time during the Cheminor ----------------- Representation Period Schein proposes to issue (whether for cash, property or services) any Equity Securities (as defined below) to any person or entity (other than pro rata issuances of Equity Securities to all holders of Schein's issued and outstanding Schein Common, and other than the issuance of shares upon exercise of employee stock options granted in the ordinary course of Schein's business) Cheminor shall have the right (which it may exercise in whole or in part) to purchase, upon the same terms, a proportionate quantity of those Equity Securities (or Equity Securities as similar as practicable to those Equity Securities) in the proportion that the aggregate number of Schein Common then beneficially owned by Cheminor bears to the total number of Schein Common outstanding immediately prior to such proposed issuance. Schein shall give notice to Cheminor setting forth the identity of the purchaser and the time, which shall not be fewer than 60 days, within which, and the terms upon which, Cheminor may purchase the Equity Securities, which terms shall be the same as the terms upon which the purchaser may purchase the Equity Securities.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event a proposed issuance is to be made pursuant to an underwritten public offering, the notice required in this Section 4.6 shall be given not less than 30 days prior to such issuance; the price at which Cheminor may purchase shares pursuant to this Section 4.6 shall be the average of the closing price therefor for the 10-day period ending on the day preceding the date such notice is given; Cheminor's rights to purchase shares shall terminate on the date which is 15 days after the date such notice is given; and Cheminor shall have no further rights with respect to such issuance, notwithstanding any change in the number of shares issued or other terms thereof, including the price, occurring subsequent to the date such notice was given.
