12.Registration Rights.

 

a.The Issuer shall prepare and, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than twenty (20) Business Days following the Closing Date (the “Filing Deadline”), file with the SEC (at its sole cost and expense) a resale registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) on Form F-1 covering the resale of all of the Required Registration Amount of Registrable Securities (as defined in the Investors’ Rights Agreement). The Registration Statement prepared pursuant hereto shall register for resale at least the number of Ordinary Shares and Warrants equal to the Required Registration Amount determined as of the date the Registration Statement is initially filed with the SEC, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 12(c). The Registration Statement shall contain (except if otherwise directed by the Investor) the “Plan of Distribution” and “Selling Shareholders” sections in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Investor. The Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to have such initial Registration Statement, and each other Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to the terms of this Section 12, declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable, but in no event later than the applicable Effectiveness Deadline for such Registration Statement (the “Effective Date”). By 5:30 p.m. New York time on the Business Day following the Effective Date, the Issuer shall file with the SEC in accordance with Rule 424 under the Securities Act the final prospectus to be used in connection with sale pursuant to the Registration Statement.

 

b.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subscription Agreement, if the SEC prevents the Issuer from including any or all of the Registrable Securities proposed to be registered under the Registration Statement for the resale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of Registrable Securities which is equal to the maximum number of Registrable Securities as if permitted by the SEC. In such event, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered for each selling stockholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such selling stockholders and, following the Effective Date, as promptly as practicable after being permitted to register additional Registrable Securities under Rule 415 of the Securities Act, the Issuer shall amend the Registration Statement or file a new Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as practicable. Unless required under applicable law, in no event shall any Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement; provided that if an Investor is required to be so identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, the Investor will have the opportunity to persuade the applicable regulator that said disclosure is not required and, if unable to eliminate the legal requirement, to either consent to such disclosure or to agree to withdraw its Registrable Securities from the Registration Statement.

 

c.In the event the number of Ordinary Shares available under a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Section 12 is insufficient to cover the Required Registration Amount of the Registrable Securities required to be covered by such Registration Statement or the Investor’s allocated portion of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 8(b), the Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to amend the applicable Registration Statement, or file a new Registration Statement (on the short form available therefor if applicable), or both, so as to cover at least the Required Registration Amount as of the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of filing of such amendment or new Registration Statement, in each case, as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than fifteen (15) calendar days after the necessity therefor arises. The Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such amendment and/or new Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable following the filing thereof.

 

d.The Issuer shall keep each Registration Statement effective pursuant to Rule 415 at all times until the earlier of (i) the date as of which the Investors (as defined in the Investors’ Rights Agreement) may sell all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144 and without the requirement to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) (or any successor thereto) promulgated under the Securities Act, (ii) the date on which the Investors shall have sold all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement or (iii) all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have ceased to be Registrable Securities.

 

e.Following the filing of the Registration Statement on Form F-1, the Issuer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to convert the F-1 Registration Statement to a Registration Statement on Form F-3, as soon as practicable after the Issuer is eligible to use Form F-3, provided that the Issuer shall maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement then in effect until such time as a Registration Statement on Form F-3 covering the Registrable Securities has been declared effective by the SEC or otherwise becomes effective automatically in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

16
 

 

f.The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Issuer may suspend, for a period of up to thirty (30) days the use of the Registration Statement if it reasonably determines, upon the advice of legal counsel, that the registration statement would fail to comply in any material respect with applicable U.S. securities laws, provided, that the Issuer shall promptly notify the Investor once such 30-day period ends; and, provided further, that such periods shall not exceed an aggregate of sixty (60) days during any three hundred sixty five (365) day period.

 

g.If applicable, the Issuer shall use its reasonable best efforts to register and qualify, unless an exemption from registration and qualification applies, the resale by the Investors of the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement under other such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the Investor shall reasonably request.

 

h.The Issuer’s obligations to include the Registrable Securities for resale in the Registration Statement are contingent upon the Investor furnishing to the Issuer, in writing, such information regarding the Investor, the Registrable Securities held by the Investor, the intended method of disposition of such Registrable Securities and such other information as shall be reasonably requested by the Issuer to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities, The Investor shall provide such information and execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Issuer may reasonably request to the extent the same are customary of a selling stockholder in a similar situation.

 

i.Without limiting the remedies available to the Investor, the Issuer acknowledges that any failure by the Issuer to comply with its obligations under this Section 2 may result in material irreparable injury to the Investor for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it would not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely and that, in the event of any such failure, the Investor may seek to obtain such relief as may be required to specifically enforce the Issuer’s obligation under this Section 12.
