Purchase and Sale Clause Example from Business Contracts

Purchase and Sale. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Company agrees to sell to each Underwriter, and each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company, at a purchase price of $9.800 per Unit, the amount of the Firm Securities set forth opposite such Underwriter's name in Schedule I hereto. (b) Subject to the terms and conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties herein set forth,... the Company hereby grants an option to the several Underwriters to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to 4,500,000 Optional Securities at the same purchase price per Unit as the Underwriters shall pay for the Firm Securities (the "Option"). The Option may be exercised only to cover over-allotments in the sale of the Firm Securities by the Underwriters. The Option may be exercised in whole or in part at any time on or before the 45th day after the date of the Prospectus upon written notice by the Representatives to the Company setting forth the number of Optional Securities as to which the several Underwriters are exercising the Option and the settlement date. The number of Optional Securities to be purchased by each Underwriter shall be based upon the same percentage of the total number of the Optional Securities to be purchased by the several Underwriters as such Underwriter is purchasing of the Firm Securities, subject to such adjustments as the Representatives in their absolute discretion shall make to eliminate any fractional shares. (c) In addition to the discount from the public offering price represented by the Purchase Price set forth in the first sentence of Section 3(a) hereof, the Company hereby agrees to pay to the Underwriters a deferred discount of $0.350 per Unit (including both Firm Securities and Optional Securities) purchased hereunder (the "Deferred Discount"); provided, however, that no Deferred Discount will be paid for the Units sold to the Sponsor or an affiliate thereof. The Deferred Discount will be paid directly to the Representatives, on behalf of the Underwriters, by the trustee from amounts on deposit in the Trust Account by wire transfer payable in same-day funds if and when the Company consummates its initial Business Combination. The Underwriters hereby agree that if no Business Combination is consummated within the time period provided in the Trust Agreement and the funds held under the Trust Agreement are distributed to the holders of the Ordinary Shares included in the Offered Securities sold pursuant to this Agreement (the "Public Shareholders"), (i) the Underwriters will forfeit any rights or claims to the Deferred Discount and (ii) the trustee under the Trust Agreement is authorized to distribute the Deferred Discount to the Public Shareholders on a pro rata basis.
