Classes of Units As of the date of this Agreement, the Company has three classes of Units: Common Units, Class A Units, and Class B Units.
Classes of Partnership Units The General Partner is hereby authorized to cause the Partnership to issue Partnership Units designated as Class T Units, Class S Units, Class D Units, Class I Units and Class E Units. Each such Class shall have the rights and obligations attributed to that Class under this Agreement.
Classes of Shares The Trustees are authorized, without shareholder approval, to create new series and classes of shares. The Trustees may reclassify unissued shares of the Fund into additional series or classes of shares. The Trustees also may divide or combine the shares of a class into a greater or lesser number of shares without changing the proportionate beneficial interest of a shareholder in the Fund. Shares do not have cumulative voting rights or preemptive or subscription rights. Shares may be voted in person or by proxy at shareholder meetings. The Fund currently has five classes of shares: Class A, Class B, Class C, Class N and Class Y. All classes invest in the same investment portfolio. Only retirement plans may purchase Class N shares. Only certain institutional investors may elect to purchase Class Y shares. Each class of shares: o has its own dividends and distributions, o pays certain expenses which may be different for the different classes, o may have a different net asset value, o may have separate voting rights on matters in which interests of one class are different from interests of another class, and o votes as a class on matters that affect that class alone. Shares are freely transferable, and each share of each class has one vote at shareholder meetings, with fractional shares voting proportionally on matters submitted to the vote of shareholders. Each share of the Fund represents an interest in the Fund proportionately equal to the interest of each other share of the same class.
Classes of Stock The Corporation is authorized to issue two classes of stock to be designated, respectively, “Common Stock” and “Preferred Stock.” The total number of shares which the Corporation is authorized to issue is 22,131,485 shares, each with a par value of $0.01 per share. 17,000,000 shares shall be Common Stock and 5,131,485 shares shall be Preferred Stock.
VOTES OF MEMBERS 57. Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares, on a show of hands every Member of record present in person or by telephone or by proxy or corporate representative at a general meeting shall have one vote and on a poll every Member of record present in person or by telephone or by proxy or corporate representative shall have one vote for each share registered in his name in the register of Members.
Transfers of Membership Interests Except as set forth in this Article 9 or elsewhere in this Agreement, no Investor may Transfer all or any part of such Investor’s Shares; provided, however, that an Investor may, with the prior written consent of the Manager, which consent may be withheld or denied for any reason, and upon compliance with this Article 9, Transfer all or a portion of such Investor’s Shares. In the case of any attempted or purported Transfer of a Share not in compliance with this Agreement, the transferring Investor may be designated as a “Defaulting Member”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless agreed to by the Manager in writing, no Investor may enter into, create, sell or Transfer any financial instrument or contract the value of which is determined in whole or in part by reference to the Fund (including the amount of Fund distributions, the value of the Fund Assets, or the results of Fund operations), within the meaning of Section 1.7704-1(a)(2)(i)(B) of the Regulations.
Membership Interests; Additional Members Holdings is the sole initial Member of the Company as reflected in Exhibit A attached hereto. Additional Persons may be admitted to the Company as Members, and Membership Interests may be issued, on such terms and conditions as the existing Members, voting as a single class, may determine at the time of admission. The terms of admission or issuance must specify the Sharing Ratios applicable thereto and may provide for the creation of different classes or groups of Members or Membership Interests having different (including senior) rights, powers and duties. The Members may reflect the creation of any new class or group in an amendment to this Agreement, indicating the different rights, powers and duties, and such an amendment shall be approved and executed by the Members in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Any such admission shall be effective only after such new Member has executed and delivered to the Members and the Company an instrument containing the notice address of the new Member, the new Member’s ratification of this Agreement and agreement to be bound by it.
Shares; Membership Interests (a) The total of the membership interests in the Company shall be divided into (i) Class A Ordinary Shares having the rights and preferences as set forth herein (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”), (ii) Class A Preferred Shares having the rights and preferences as set forth herein (the “Class A Preferred Shares” and, together with the Class A Ordinary Shares, the “Class A Shares”), (iii) Class B Ordinary Shares having the rights and preferences as set forth herein (the “Class B Ordinary Shares”), and (iv) Class C Ordinary Share having the rights and preferences as set forth herein (the “Class C Ordinary Share” and, together with the Class A Ordinary Shares, the Class A Preferred Shares and the Class B Ordinary Shares, the “Shares” and each a “Share”). Class A Ordinary Shares, Class A Preferred Shares and Class B Ordinary Shares shall have the same rights, powers and duties, except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement. The number of Class A Ordinary Shares shall be limited to the maximum number of Class A Ordinary shares offered in the Offering, plus (i) the number of Class A Ordinary Shares which may be issued upon conversion of the Class A Preferred Shares, plus (ii) the number of Class A Ordinary Shares which may be issued upon conversion of the Class B Ordinary Shares. The number of Class A Preferred Shares shall be limited to the number of Class A Preferred Shares which may be issued pursuant to the Management Services Agreement. The number of Class B Ordinary Shares shall be limited to up to 1,000. The number of Class C Ordinary Shares shall be limited to one. Class A Preferred Shares issued pursuant to the Management Services Agreement (“ASA Shares”) may be subject to vesting provisions as set forth in the Management Services Agreement. The Shares of the Members shall be as set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto, which may be updated as set forth herein. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that all of the Class A Ordinary Shares are not sold pursuant to the Offering, the Board shall, upon the final closing of the Offering, issue a number of Class A Ordinary Shares to the Initial Member equal to the aggregate number of Class A Ordinary Shares that remain unsold in the Offering, as repayment in full of any and all obligations owing to the Initial Member in respect of advances made to acquire the Artwork and true-up fees payable to the Initial Member. The name and mailing address of each Member or such Member’s representative shall be listed on the books and records of the Company maintained for such purpose by the Company or the Transfer Agent.
Role of Members (a) The Members shall not have any right or power to take part in the management or control of the Company or its business and affairs or to act for or bind the Company in any way. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Members shall have all of the rights and powers specifically set forth in this Agreement and, to the extent not inconsistent with this Agreement, the Act.
Rights of Members Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, (a) each Member shall look solely to the assets of the Company for the return of its Capital Contribution, (b) no Member shall have the right or power to demand or receive property other than cash from the Company and (c) except as provided in this Agreement, no Member shall have priority over any other Member as to the return of its Capital Contributions, distributions or allocations.
