Payment of Distributions Subject to the preferential rights of Holders of any class or series of Partnership Interests of the Partnership now or hereafter issued and outstanding, ranking senior to the Series B Preferred Units with respect to the payment of distributions, pursuant to Section 5.1, the General Partner, as holder of the Series B Preferred Units, shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if authorized by the General Partner, out of Available Cash, cumulative cash distributions in an amount equal to the aggregate Series B Priority Return attributable to such Series B Preferred Units in accordance with this Article 19. Such distributions shall accrue and be cumulative from and including the first date on which any Series B Preferred Units are issued or, if later, the most recent Series B Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date (as defined below) to which distributions have been paid in full (or declared and the corresponding Series B Distribution Record Date has passed), and shall be payable (i) quarterly in arrears, on the last calendar day of March, June, September and December, of each year commencing on or about March 30, 2018, and, (ii), in the event of a redemption of Series B Preferred Units, on the redemption date (each a “Series B Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date”); provided, however, if any Series B Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date is not a Business Day, then the distribution which would otherwise have been payable on such Series B Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date may be paid, at the General Partner’s option, on either the immediately preceding Business Day or the next succeeding Business Day, except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if paid on such Series B Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date, and no interest or additional dividends or other sums shall accrue on the amount so payable from such Series B Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date to such next succeeding Business Day.
Return of Distributions In accordance with the Act and the laws of the State of Delaware, a Member may, under certain circumstances, be required to return amounts previously distributed to such Member. It is the intent of the Members that no distribution to any Member pursuant to ARTICLE IV shall be deemed a return of money or other property paid or distributed in violation of the Act. The payment of any such money or distribution of any such property to a Member shall be deemed to be a compromise within the meaning of Section 18-502(b) of the Act, and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any Member receiving any such money or property shall not be required to return any such money or property to the Company or any other Person. However, if any court of competent jurisdiction holds that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, any Member is obligated to make any such payment, such obligation shall be the obligation of such Member and not of any other Member.
Taxation of Distributions The taxation of Xxxx XXX distributions depends on whether the distribution is a qualified distribution or a nonqualified distribution.
Requirement and Characterization of Distributions; Distributions to Record Holders (a) Within 45 days following the end of each Quarter commencing with the Quarter ending on September 30, 2005, an amount equal to 100% of Available Cash with respect to such Quarter shall, subject to Section 17-607 of the Delaware Act, be distributed in accordance with this Article VI by the Partnership to the Partners as of the Record Date selected by the General Partner. All amounts of Available Cash distributed by the Partnership on any date from any source shall be deemed to be Operating Surplus until the sum of all amounts of Available Cash theretofore distributed by the Partnership to the Partners pursuant to Section 6.4 equals the Operating Surplus from the Closing Date through the close of the immediately preceding Quarter. Any remaining amounts of Available Cash distributed by the Partnership on such date shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 6.5, be deemed to be “Capital Surplus.” All distributions required to be made under this Agreement shall be made subject to Section 17-607 of the Delaware Act.
(b) Notwithstanding Section 6.3(a), in the event of the dissolution and liquidation of the Partnership, all receipts received during or after the Quarter in which the Liquidation Date occurs, other than from borrowings described in (a)(ii) of the definition of Available Cash, shall be applied and distributed solely in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, Section 12.4.
(c) The General Partner may treat taxes paid by the Partnership on behalf of, or amounts withheld with respect to, all or less than all of the Partners, as a distribution of Available Cash to such Partners.
(d) Each distribution in respect of a Partnership Interest shall be paid by the Partnership, directly or through the Transfer Agent or through any other Person or agent, only to the Record Holder of such Partnership Interest as of the Record Date set for such distribution. Such payment shall constitute full payment and satisfaction of the Partnership’s liability in respect of such payment, regardless of any claim of any Person who may have an interest in such payment by reason of an assignment or otherwise.
Interim Distributions At such times as may be determined by it in its sole discretion, the Trustee shall distribute, or cause to be distributed, to the Beneficiaries, in proportion to the number of Trust Units held by each Beneficiary relating to the Trust, such cash or other property comprising a portion of the Trust Assets as the Trustee may in its sole discretion determine may be distributed without detriment to the conservation and protection of the Trust Assets in the Trust.
ALLOCATION OF DISTRIBUTION FEE Assuming that the Distribution Fee remains constant over time so that Part IV hereof does not become operative:
(1) The portion of the aggregate Distribution Fee accrued in respect of all Class C shares of a Fund during any calendar month allocable to the Distributor or a Successor Distributor is determined by multiplying the total of such Distribution Fee by the following fraction: where:
A= The aggregate Net Asset Value of all Class C shares of a Fund attributed to the Distributor or such Successor Distributor, as the case may be, and outstanding at the beginning of such calendar month
B= The aggregate Net Asset Value of all Class C shares of a Fund at the beginning of such calendar month
C= The aggregate Net Asset Value of all Class C shares of a Fund attributed to the Distributor or such Successor Distributor, as the case may be, and outstanding at the end of such calendar month
D= The aggregate Net Asset Value of all Class C shares of a Fund at the end of such calendar month
(2) If the Distributor reasonably determines that the transfer agent is able to produce automated monthly reports that allocate the average Net Asset Value of the Commission Shares (or all Class C shares if available) of a Fund among the Distributor and any Successor Distributor in a manner consistent with the methodology detailed in Part I and Part III(1) above, the portion of the Distribution Fee accrued in respect of all such Class C shares of a Fund during a particular calendar month will be allocated to the Distributor or a Successor Distributor by multiplying the total of such Distribution Fee by the following fraction:
(A) (B) where:
A= Average Net Asset Value of all such Class C shares of a Fund for such calendar month attributed to the Distributor or a Successor Distributor, as the case may be B= Total average Net Asset Value of all such Class C shares of a Fund for such calendar month
Priority of Distributions On each Distribution Date, the Indenture Trustee shall first make the payments in sub-clause (z) below and then shall make the following deposits and distributions in the amounts and in the order of priority set forth below:
(a) to the Servicer, the Primary Servicing Fee due on that Distribution Date;
(b) to the Administrator, the Administration Fee due on that Distribution Date and all prior unpaid Administration Fees;
(c) to the Class A Noteholders, the Class A Noteholders’ Interest Distribution Amount, pro rata based on amounts payable as Class A Noteholders’ Interest Distribution Amount;
(d) to the Class B Noteholders, the Class B Noteholders’ Interest Distribution Amount;
(e) to the Reserve Account, the amount, if any, necessary to reinstate the balance of the Reserve Account to the Specified Reserve Account Balance;
(f) to the Class A Noteholders, until the principal balance of such class is paid in full, the Class A Noteholders’ Principal Distribution Amount;
(g) to the Class B Noteholders, until the principal balance of such class is paid in full, the Class B Noteholders’ Principal Distribution Amount;
(h) to the Indenture Trustee, the Eligible Lender Trustee and the Delaware Trustee, pro rata, based on amounts due, any unpaid fees and expenses due under Section 6.7 of the Indenture or Sections 8.1 and 8.3 of the Trust Agreement, as applicable, including, without limitation, any indemnity amounts, to the extent such amounts have not been paid by the Administrator or paid pursuant to sub-clause (z) below;
(i) to the Servicer, the aggregate unpaid amount of the Carryover Servicing Fee, if any;
(j) in the event the Trust Student Loans are not sold pursuant to Section 6.1(a) below or Section 4.4 of the Indenture, on each subsequent Distribution Date, an accelerated payment of principal shall be paid, first, to the Class A Noteholders until the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes is paid in full and reduced to zero, and second, to the Class B Noteholders until the Outstanding Amount of the Class B Notes is paid in full and reduced to zero, as set forth in Section 2.8 above; provided that the amount of such distribution shall not exceed the Outstanding Amount of the Class A Notes or the Class B Notes, as applicable, after giving effect to all other payments in respect of principal of the Class A Notes and the Class B Notes to be made on such Distribution Date; and
(k) to the Excess Distribution Certificateholder (initially, Navient CFC), any remaining amounts after application of the preceding clauses. Notwithstanding the foregoing:
Timing of Distributions (a) Subject to the applicable provisions of the Delaware Act and except as otherwise provided herein, the Managing Member shall pay distributions to the Members associated with such Series pursuant to Section 7.1, at such times as the Managing Member shall reasonably determine, and pursuant to Section 7.2, as soon as reasonably practicable after the relevant amounts have been received by the Series; provided that, the Managing Member shall not be obliged to make any distribution pursuant to this Section (i) unless there are sufficient amounts available for such distribution or (ii) which, in the reasonable opinion of the Managing Member, would or might leave the Company or such Series with insufficient funds to meet any future contemplated obligations or contingencies including to meet any Operating Expenses and outstanding Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligations (and the Managing Member is hereby authorized to retain any amounts within the Company to create a reserve to meet any such obligations or contingencies), or which otherwise may result in the Company or such Series having unreasonably small capital for the Company or such Series to continue its business as a going concern. Subject to the terms of any Series Designation (including, without limitation, the preferential rights, if any, of holders of any other class of Interests of the applicable Series), distributions shall be paid to the holders of the Interests of a Series on an equal per Interest basis as of the Record Date selected by the Managing Member. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not be required to make a distribution to any Member on account of its interest in any Series if such distribution would violate the Delaware Act or other applicable law.
(b) Notwithstanding Section 7.2 and Section 7.3(a), in the event of the termination and liquidation of a Series, all distributions shall be made in accordance with, and subject to the terms and conditions of, ARTICLE XI.
(c) Each distribution in respect of any Interests of a Series shall be paid by the Company, directly or through any other Person or agent, only to the Record Holder of such Interests as of the Record Date set for such distribution. Such payment shall constitute full payment and satisfaction of the Company and such Series liability in respect of such payment, regardless of any claim of any Person who may have an interest in such payment by reason of an assignment or otherwise.
Priorities of Distributions Section 5.03
Certain Distributions If the Company elects to:
(I) distribute, to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, any rights, options or warrants (other than rights issued pursuant to a stockholder rights plan prior to separation of such rights from the Common Stock) entitling them, for a period of not more than 60 calendar days after the date such distribution is announced, to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date such distribution is announced (determined in the manner set forth in the third paragraph of Section 5.05(A)(ii)); or
(II) distribute, to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock, assets or securities of the Company or rights to purchase the Company’s securities (other than rights issued pursuant to a stockholder rights plan prior to separation of such rights from the Common Stock), which distribution per share of Common Stock has a value, as reasonably determined by the Company in good faith, exceeding 10% of the Last Reported Sale Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately before the date such distribution is announced, then, in either case, (x) the Company will send written notice of such distribution, and of the related right to convert Notes, to Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent at least 50 Scheduled Trading Days before the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and (y) once the Company has sent such notice, Holders may convert their Notes at any time until the earlier of the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately before such Ex-Dividend Date and the Company’s announcement that such distribution will not take place; provided, however, that the Notes will not become convertible pursuant to clause (y) above (but the Company will be required to send notice of such distribution pursuant to clause (x) above) on account of such distribution if each Holder participates, at the same time and on the same terms as holders of Common Stock, and solely by virtue of being a Holder, in such distribution without having to convert such Holder’s Notes and as if such Holder held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the Conversion Rate in effect on the record date for such distribution; and (ii) the aggregate principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder on such date; provided, further, that if the Company is then otherwise permitted to settle conversions of Notes by Physical Settlement (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company has not elected another Settlement Method to apply, including pursuant to Section 5.03(A)(i)), then the Company may instead elect to provide such notice at least ten Scheduled Trading Days before such Ex-Dividend Date, in which case (x) the Company must settle all conversions of Notes with a Conversion Date occurring on or after the date the Company provides such notice and on or before the Business Day immediately before the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution (or any earlier announcement by the Company that such distribution will not take place) by Physical Settlement; and (y) such notice must state that all such conversions will be settled by Physical Settlement; provided, further, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.01(C)(i)(3)(a), in the case of any separation, from the Common Stock, of rights issued pursuant to a stockholder rights plan as set forth in clauses (I) and (II) above, in no event will the Company be required to provide such notice before the Business Day after the date the Company becomes aware of the event causing such separation.
