Business to Be Conducted at Annual Meeting Sample Clauses

Business to Be Conducted at Annual Meeting. At an annual meeting of stockholders, only such business may be conducted as has been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, business (other than the nomination of a person for election as a director, which is governed by Section ‎10, and, to the extent applicable, Section ‎11), must be (i) brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board or (ii) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by a stockholder who (A) has complied with all applicable requirements of this Section ‎9 and Section ‎11 in relation to such business, (B) was a stockholder of record of the Company at the time of giving the notice required by Section ‎11(a) and is a stockholder of record of the Company at the time of the annual meeting, and (C) is entitled to vote at the annual meeting. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing clause (ii) will be the exclusive means for a stockholder to submit business before an annual meeting of stockholders (other than proposals properly made in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (such act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Exchange Act”) and included in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the Board).

Meetings of the Partners may be called by the General Partner, by the affirmative vote of a majority of Directors then in office, or by Partners holding at least a majority of the total number of votes eligible to be cast by all Partners, and may be held at any time, date and place determined by the General Partner in the case of meetings called by the General Partner or the Partners and at any time, date and place determined by the Directors in the case of meetings called by the Directors. In each case, the General Partner will provide notice of the meeting, stating the date, time and place of the meeting and the record date for the meeting, to each Partner entitled to vote at the meeting within a reasonable time prior to the meeting. Failure to receive notice of a meeting on the part of any Partner will not affect the validity of any act or proceeding of the meeting, so long as a quorum is present at the meeting. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, only matters set out in the notice of a meeting may be voted on by the Partners at the meeting. The presence in person or by proxy of Partners holding a majority of the total number of votes eligible to be cast by all Partners as of the record date will constitute a quorum at any meeting of Partners. In the absence of a quorum, a meeting may be adjourned to the time or times as determined by the General Partner and communicated to the Directors in the manner described above in this Section 3.4(a). Except as otherwise required by any provision of this Agreement or of the 1940 Act, (1) those candidates receiving a plurality of the votes cast at any meeting of Partners called pursuant to Section 2.11(c) of this Agreement or elected pursuant to the requirement of Section 2.11(b) will be elected as Directors and (2) all other actions of the Partners taken at a meeting will require the affirmative vote of Partners holding a majority of the total number of votes eligible to be cast by those Partners who are present in person or by proxy at the meeting. (b) Each Partner will be entitled to cast at any meeting of Partners or pursuant to written consent a number of votes equivalent to the Partner’s Investment Percentage as of the record date for the meeting or the date of the written consent. The General Partner will establish a record date not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the date of any meeting of Partners or mailing (including by electronic transmission) to the Partners of any written consent, to determine eligibility to vote at the meeting and the number of votes that each Partner will be entitled to cast at the meeting, and will maintain for each record date a list setting out the name of each Partner and the number of votes that each Partner will be entitled to cast at the meeting. (c) A Partner may vote at any meeting of Partners by a properly executed proxy transmitted to the Partnership at any time at or before the time of the meeting by telegram, telecopier or other means of electronic communication or other readable reproduction as contemplated by the provisions relating to proxies applicable to corporations incorporated under the laws of Delaware now or in the future in effect. A proxy may be suspended or revoked, as the case may be, by the Partner executing the proxy by a later writing delivered to the Partnership at any time prior to exercise of the proxy or if the Partner executing the proxy is present at the meeting and votes in person. Any action of the Partners that is permitted to be taken at a meeting of the Partners may be taken without a meeting if consents in writing, setting out the action to be taken, are signed by Partners holding a majority of the total number of votes eligible to be cast or any greater percentage as may be required under this Agreement to approve the action.
