Subject to the requirement in Section 4.1(b) that Callco shall only be entitled to exercise the Liquidation Call Right with respect to those Exchangeable Shares, if any, in respect of which Parent has not exercised the Liquidation Call Right, Parent and Callco shall each have the overriding right (the “Liquidation Call Right”), in the event of and notwithstanding the proposed liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company or any other distribution of the assets of the Company among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, pursuant to the Exchangeable Share Provisions, to purchase from all but not less than all of the holders of the Exchangeable Shares (other than any holder of Exchangeable Shares which is Parent or any of its Subsidiaries) on the Liquidation Date all but not less than all of the Exchangeable Shares held by each such holder upon payment by Parent or Callco, as the case may be, to each such holder of the Exchangeable Share Price (payable in the form of the Exchangeable Share Consideration) applicable on the last Business Day prior to the Liquidation Date (the “Liquidation Call Purchase Price”) in accordance with Section 4.1(c). In the event of the exercise of the Liquidation Call Right by Parent or Callco, as the case may be, each such holder of Exchangeable Shares (other than Parent and its Subsidiaries) shall be obligated to sell all of the Exchangeable Shares held by the holder to Parent or Callco, as the case may be, on the Liquidation Date upon payment by Parent or Callco, as the case may be, to such holder of the Liquidation Call Purchase Price (payable in the form of Exchangeable Share Consideration) for each such share, and the Company shall have no obligation to pay any Liquidation Amount to the holders of such shares so purchased.
Callco shall only be entitled to exercise the Liquidation Call Right with respect to those Exchangeable Shares, if any, in respect of which Parent has not exercised the Liquidation Call Right. To exercise the Liquidation Call Right, Parent or Callco, as the case may be, must notify the Transfer Agent, as agent for the holders of the Exchangeable Shares, and the Company of its intention to exercise such right (i) in the case of a voluntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company or any other voluntary distribution of the assets of the Company among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, at ten (10) Business Days before the Liquidation Date, or (ii) in the case of an involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company or any other involuntary distribution of the assets of the Company among its shareholders for the purpose of winding up its affairs, at least five (5) Business Days before the Liquidation Date. The Transfer Agent will notify the holders of the Exchangeable Shares as to whether or not Parent and/or Callco has exercised the Liquidation Call Right forthwith after the expiry of the period during which Parent or Callco may exercise the Liquidation Call Right. If Parent and/or Callco exercises the Liquidation Call Right, then on the Liquidation Date, Parent and/or Callco, as the case may be, will purchase and the holders of the Exchangeable Shares (other than any holder of Exchangeable Shares which is Parent or any of its Subsidiaries) will sell, all of the Exchangeable Shares held by such holders on such date for a price per share equal to the Liquidation Call Purchase Price (payable in the form of Exchangeable Share Consideration).
Redemption Call Right. Upon the occurrence of a Redemption Call Event, Parent shall have the overriding right (the “Redemption Call Right”), notwithstanding the proposed redemption of the Class B Shares by Exchangeco pursuant to Article 8 of the Class B Share Provisions, to purchase from all but not less than all of the Class B Shareholders (other than any Class B Shareholder which is an Affiliate of Parent) on the Redemption Date or, if the Class B Shares have not otherwise been redeemed or retracted by such date, any date following the Redemption Date (the “Later Redemption Date”), all but not less than all of the Class B Shares held by each such holder on payment by Parent to each Class B Shareholder an amount per Class B Share (the “Redemption Call Purchase Price”) equal to the Class B Share Consideration on the last Business Day prior to the Redemption Date or the Later Redemption Date, as applicable. In the event of the exercise of the Redemption Call Right by Parent, each Class B Shareholder shall be obligated to sell all the Class B Shares held by the Class B Shareholder to Parent on the Redemption Date or the Later Redemption Date, as applicable, on payment by Parent to the Class B Shareholder of the Redemption Call Purchase Price for each such Class B Share, and Exchangeco shall have no obligation to redeem such Class B Shares so purchased by Parent.
(d)If neither Parent nor Callco notifies the Transfer Agent and the Company in accordance with Section 5.1(b) of its intention to exercise the Liquidation Call Right in the manner and timing described above, each holder of Exchangeable Shares will, at the holder’s discretion, be entitled to demand (by way of notice given to the Company or Parent) that Parent exercise (or cause Callco to exercise) the Liquidation Call Right in respect of the shares covered by the notice.

A call right is a contractual provision that gives the holder the ability to purchase an asset, security, or property at a specified price within a certain time frame. This option is typically outlined in an agreement and allows the holder to exercise control over the purchase decision. Call rights are often used in various financial transactions, including options trading and partnership agreements.
When should I use a Call Right?
Call rights should be used when you want to secure the future option to purchase an asset without an immediate obligation to do so. They are effective in scenarios where you anticipate future value increases of the asset or when you want to mitigate potential financial risks. In business partnerships, call rights can protect minority shareholders or partners by allowing them to buy control in case of business disputes.
How do I write a Call Right?
Writing a call right involves specifying the terms under which the right can be exercised. Here’s a general format:
Define the Asset: Clearly describe the asset to which the call right pertains.
Set the Exercise Price: Specify the price at which the right can be exercised.
Determine the Exercise Period: Include start and end dates during which the call right can be exercised.
Include Conditions and Procedures: Outline any conditions that must be met to exercise the right and the procedure for notifying the other party.
Example:
“The Option Holder has the right, but not the obligation, to purchase 10,000 shares of XYZ Corporation at a price of $50 per share. This Call Right can be exercised within the period commencing on January 1, 2024, and terminating on December 31, 2024, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.”
Which contracts typically contain a Call Right?
Call rights are commonly found in the following types of contracts:
Stock Option Agreements: Particularly those related to employee stock options, where employees can purchase company shares at a pre-determined price.
Real Estate Contracts: In agreements where partners or developers have options to buy properties.
Joint Venture Agreements: Where parties have rights to increase their stakes under certain conditions.
Buy-Sell Agreements: Among business owners to manage ownership interests.
