Performance Adjustment One-twelfth of the annual Performance Adjustment Rate will be applied to the average of the net assets of the Portfolio (computed in the manner set forth in the Fund's Declaration of Trust or other organizational document) determined as of the close of business on each business day throughout the month and the performance period.
Payment and Year-End Adjustment Amounts accrued pursuant to this Agreement shall be payable to the Adviser as of the last day of each month. If necessary, on or before the last day of the first month of each fiscal year, an adjustment payment shall be made by the appropriate party in order that the actual Fund Operating Expenses of a Fund for the prior fiscal year (including any reimbursement payments hereunder with respect to such fiscal year) do not exceed the Maximum Annual Operating Expense Limit.
Annual Adjustment At the end of each Fiscal Year and following receipt by Manager of the annual accounting referred to in Article 10, an adjustment will be made to such annual account, if necessary and if available, so that the appropriate amount shall have been deposited in the Reserve.
Deferred Sales Charge If the prospectus related to the Trust specifies a deferred sales charge, the Trustee shall, on the dates specified in and as permitted by such Prospectus (the "Deferred Sales Charge Payment Dates"), withdraw from the Capital Account, an amount per Unit specified in such Prospectus and credit such amount to a special non-Trust account designated by the Depositor out of which the deferred sales charge will be distributed to or on the order of the Depositor on such Deferred Sales Charge Payment Dates (the "Deferred Sales Charge Account"). If the balance in the Capital Account is insufficient to make such withdrawal, the Trustee shall, as directed by the Depositor, advance funds in an amount required to fund the proposed withdrawal and be entitled to reimbursement of such advance upon the deposit of additional monies in the Capital Account, and/or sell Securities and credit the proceeds thereof to the Deferred Sales Charge Account, provided, however, that the aggregate amount advanced by the Trustee at any time for payment of the deferred sales charge shall not exceed $15,000. Such direction shall, if the Trustee is directed to sell a Security, identify the Security to be sold and include instructions as to the execution of such sale. In the absence of such direction by the Depositor, the Trustee shall sell Securities sufficient to pay the deferred sales charge (and any unreimbursed advance then outstanding) in full, and shall select Securities to be sold in such manner as will maintain (to the extent practicable) the relative proportion of number of shares of each Security then held. The proceeds of such sales, less any amounts paid to the Trustee in reimbursement of its advances, shall be credited to the Deferred Sales Charge Account. If a Unit holder redeems Units prior to full payment of the deferred sales charge, the Trustee shall, if so provided in the related Prospectus and, except for situations in which the Trust Fund Evaluation determined as provided in Section 5.01 hereof has been reduced by the amount of any unpaid accrued deferred sales charge, on the Redemption Date, withhold from the Redemption Price payable to such Unit holder an amount equal to the unpaid portion of the deferred sales charge and distribute such amount to the Deferred Sales Charge Account. If the Trust is terminated for reasons other than that set forth in Section 6.01(g), the Trustee shall, if so provided in the related Prospectus on the termination of the Trust, withhold from the proceeds payable to Unit holders an amount equal to the unpaid portion of the deferred sales charge and distribute such amount to the Deferred Sales Charge Account. If the Trust is terminated pursuant to Section 6.01(g), the Trustee shall not withhold from the proceeds payable to Unit holders any amounts of unpaid deferred sales charges. If pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof, the Depositor shall purchase a Unit tendered for redemption prior to the payment in full of the deferred sales charge due on the tendered Unit, the Depositor shall pay to the Unit holder the amount specified under Section 5.02, which amount, except for situations in which the Trust Fund Evaluation determined as provided in Section 5.01 hereof has been reduced by the amount of any unpaid accrued deferred sales charge, shall be reduced by the unpaid portion of the deferred sales charge. All advances made by the Trustee pursuant to this Section shall be secured by a lien on the Trust prior to the interest of the Unit holders. If the related Prospectus provides that the deferred sales charge shall accrue on a daily basis, the "unpaid portion of the deferred sales charge" as used in this paragraph shall mean the accrued and unpaid deferred sales charge as of the date of redemption or termination, as appropriate. The Depositor represents that the price paid by any Unit holder for Units acquired through reinvestment of Trust distributions will be reduced by the aggregate amount of unpaid deferred sales charge at the time of the purchase to off set any subsequent collection by the Depositor of deferred sales charge in respect of the Units so acquired."
Z. Article III of the Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust is hereby amended by adding the following new Section 3.14:
Annual Adjustments Base Rent shall be increased on each annual anniversary of the first day of the first full month during the Term of this Lease (each an “Adjustment Date”) by multiplying the Base Rent payable immediately before such Adjustment Date by the Rent Adjustment Percentage and adding the resulting amount to the Base Rent payable immediately before such Adjustment Date. Base Rent, as so adjusted, shall thereafter be due as provided herein. Base Rent adjustments for any fractional calendar month shall be prorated.
Salary Adjustment The salary of an employee returning from uncompensated leave shall be adjusted to reflect all non-discretionary increases distributed during the period of leave. While on such leave, an employee shall be eligible to participate in any special salary incentive programs.
Call Back Compensation (a) Call back is an occasion where an employee has been released from duty and is called back to work prior to his/her normal starting time. On such occasions, the employee’s scheduled or recognized shift shall be made available for work, except that the Agency shall not be obligated to work the employee more than twelve (12) consecutive hours and the employee may choose not to work more than twelve (12) consecutive hours, excluding meal periods, of combined call back time and regular shift time.
(b) An employee who is called back to work outside his/her scheduled workshift shall be paid a minimum of the equivalent of two (2) hours pay at the overtime rate of pay computed from when the employee actually begins work. After two (2) hours work, in each call back situation, the employee shall be compensated at the appropriate rate of pay for time worked.
(c) This provision does not apply to telephone calls at home or overtime work which is essentially a continuation of the scheduled workshift.
Annual Bonus Compensation Executive shall be eligible to receive a bonus each Contract Year (“Annual Bonus”) as the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors shall determine. Executive’s Annual Bonus shall be determined in accordance with the Company’s executive compensation policies as in effect from time to time during the Term and shall be based, in part, on his achieving his individual performance goals for the year and, in part, on the Company’s achieving its performance goals for the year.
Distribution Assistance Fees (Asset-Based Sales Charge) Payments In its sole discretion and irrespective of whichever alternative method of making service fee payments to Recipients is selected by the Distributor, in addition the Distributor may make distribution assistance fee payments to a Recipient quarterly, or at such other interval as deemed appropriate by the Distributor, within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter or other period, at a rate not to exceed 0.1875% (0.75% on an annual basis) of the average during the period of the aggregate net asset value of Shares computed as of the close of each business day constituting Qualified Holdings owned beneficially or of record by the Recipient or its Customers until such Shares are redeemed or converted to another class of shares of the Fund, provided, however, that a majority of the Independent Trustees may, but are not obligated to, set a time period (the "Recipient Maximum Holding Period") for making such payments. Distribution assistance fee payments shall be made only to Recipients that are registered with the SEC as a broker-dealer or are exempt from registration. The distribution assistance to be rendered by the Recipients in connection with the sale of Shares may include, but shall not be limited to, the following: distributing sales literature and prospectuses other than those furnished to current Shareholders, providing compensation to and paying expenses of personnel of the Recipient who support the distribution of Shares by the Recipient, and providing such other information and services in connection with the distribution of Shares as the Distributor or the Fund may reasonably request.
Gross Income Allocation If any Partner has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Fiscal Year which is in excess of the sum of (i) the amount such Partner is obligated to restore, if any, pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, and (ii) the amount such Partner is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), each such Partner shall be specially allocated items of Partnership income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible; provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.05(c) shall be made only if and to the extent that a Partner would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this Article V have been tentatively made as if Section 5.05(b) and this Section 5.05(c) were not in this Agreement.
