CALL RIGHT; RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL
4.1. ICF and IUBT Call
Right.
With
respect to each Option Holder, each of ICF and IUBT shall have the
right to purchase (the “Call”), and each such Option
Holder shall have the obligation to sell upon the exercise of such
Call, all or any portion of such Option Holder’s Common
Shares (a) at any time after the first anniversary of the date
on which such Option Holder acquires such Common Shares, by
delivery of an Exercise Notice to such Option Holder or his
personal representative (with the date of such Exercise Notice
constituting the “Effective Date” for purposes of
determining the Fair Market Value of the Common Shares in
accordance with Section 4.3) or (b) upon any proposed
transfer of Common Shares by such Option Holder to a third party
that is not an Affiliate of ICF or another Option Holder, in which
case the Call shall be exercisable pursuant to the procedures set
forth in Section 4.2.
4.2. Right of First
Refusal.
In the
event on or after the first anniversary of the date on which an
Option Holder acquires Common Shares, such Option Holder proposes
to transfer such Common Shares pursuant to a bona fide purchase
offer received from a third party that is not an Affiliate of ICF,
the Call right of each of ICF and IUBT shall be in the form of a
right of first refusal to purchase such Common Shares upon the
following terms:
(a) The Option Holder shall first
notify ICF and IUBT in writing at least 30 days in advance of
the proposed transfer. The notice shall contain all of the terms of
the proposed transfer, including, without limitation, the name and
address of the prospective transferee, the purchase price and other
terms and conditions of payment (or the minimum purchase price or
basis for determining the minimum purchase price and other minimum
acceptable terms and conditions), the date on or about which the
transfer is to be made, and the number of Common Shares to be
transferred (the “Transfer Notice”).
(b) Within 10 business days after
receipt of the Transfer Notice, either ICF or IUBT (the
“Exercising Party”) may notify the Option Holder that
it intends either:
(1) to
exercise its Call by purchasing all (but not less than all) of the
Common Shares proposed to be transferred pursuant to the terms and
conditions as set forth in the Transfer Notice (the “Right of
First Refusal Notice”), in which case the provisions of
Subsection 4.2(c) shall govern such purchase and sale, or
(2) to
exercise its Call by purchasing all (but not less than all) of the
Common Shares proposed to be transferred pursuant to the provisions
of Sections 4.3 and 4.4, in which case the Exercising Party
shall deliver an Exercise Notice, and the provisions of
Sections 4.3 and 4.4 shall govern such purchase and
sale.
If the
Exercising Party exercises its Call under this Subsection 4.2(b), a
binding contract of purchase and sale will be formed between it and
the Option Holder upon the delivery of the Right of First Refusal
Notice or the Exercise Notice, as the case may be.
- 5 -
(c) If the Exercising Party delivers
a Right of First Refusal Notice, the Exercising Party will buy, and
the Option Holder will sell, the Common Shares at the time, at the
price, and on the same terms and conditions as those contained in
the Transfer Notice, subject to the following:
(1)
If the Transfer Notice provides for payment over time, the
Exercising Party will have the option to make payment all in cash
for clear title at the closing of the purchase and sale;
(2)
If the Transfer Notice provides for the closing to take place more
than 30 days after the delivery of the Transfer Notice, the
Exercising Party will have the option to close its purchase on or
before the 30 th day after
delivery of the Transfer Notice.
(d) After compliance with the
provisions of this Section 4.2, if no Call has been exercised,
the Option Holder may transfer his Common Shares, but only to the
transferee designated in the Transfer Notice, at the time, at the
price, and on the same terms and conditions as those contained in
the Transfer Notice. If no Call is exercised and such proposed
transfer to a third party is not consummated within 30 days
after delivery of the Transfer Notice, any proposed sale of the
Common Shares will again become subject to the notice provisions
and the right of first refusal provided in this
Section 4.2.
4.3. Purchase Price.
If ICF
or IUBT exercises its Call pursuant to Section 4.1 or
Section 4.2(b)(2), the purchase price (“Purchase
Price”) for each Common Share to be purchased shall be equal
to the Fair Market Value of the Common Share, plus interest thereon
from the Effective Date at the national prime rate as reported in
The Wall Street Journal as of the Effective Date (the
“National Prime Rate”). The Fair Market Value of a
Common Share shall be determined as follows (with the date such
Fair Market Value is finally determined hereunder being referred to
as the “Valuation Date”):
(a) The Board shall determine the
Fair Market Value of each Common Share as of the Effective Date
(the “Initial Valuation”), which Initial Valuation may
be based on the opinion of an independent appraiser engaged by the
Board. All costs incurred in connection with the Initial Valuation
shall be borne by ICF. The Initial Valuation shall be set forth in
a written notice (the “Valuation Notice”) delivered by
ICF to the Option Holder as soon as practicable following the
Board’s receipt of the independent appraiser’s opinion
with respect to the value of the Common Shares, if any, but in any
event within 60 days after delivery of the Exercise
Notice.
(b) If the Option Holder does not
dispute the Initial Valuation by delivery of a written notice of
dispute to ICF within 20 days after ICF’s delivery of
the Valuation Notice, the Initial Valuation shall be binding upon
the Parties as the Fair Market Value. If the Option Holder does
dispute the Initial Valuation within the 20-day period, the Option
Holder shall, at his sole expense, retain a qualified appraiser
(“the Second Appraiser”) of his own choosing to make a
second appraisal (the “Second Appraisal”) of the Fair
Market Value of each Common Share. If the Second Appraisal is less
than the Initial Valuation,
- 6 -
the Initial
Valuation shall be binding upon the Parties. If the Second
Appraisal exceeds the Initial Valuation by an amount not greater
than 10 percent of the Initial Valuation, the Fair Market
Value of each Common Share shall be the average of the Initial
Valuation and the Second Appraisal.
(c) If the Second Appraisal exc
