Filing and Effectiveness The Company shall file a Registration Statement relating to any Demand Registration as promptly as practicable, but in any event no later than sixty (60) days after receipt of a Demand Notice, with the SEC and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective as soon as practicable thereafter and to remain effective for a period of time reasonably required for the disposition of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement. If any Demand Registration is requested to be effected as a shelf registration pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act by the Holders demanding such Demand Registration, the Company shall keep the Registration Statement filed in respect thereof effective for a period of six (6) months from the date on which the SEC declares such Registration Statement effective or such shorter period that will terminate when all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Company shall promptly, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of a Demand Notice, notify all other Holders in writing of the receipt of such Demand Notice and each such other Holder shall have the right to have all or a part of such Holder’s Registrable Securities included in such registration thereof by delivering a written notice (a “Participating Notice”) to the Company within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of the aforementioned notice from the Company (each Holder that delivers a Participating Notice to the Company pursuant to this Section 3(b), a “Participating Demand Holder”). Each Participating Demand Holder shall specify in the Participating Notice the number of Registrable Securities that such Participating Demand Holder elects to include in such registration and the Company shall include in such registration all Registrable Securities requested by the Participating Demand Holders for inclusion as specified in the Participation Notices.
Term and Effectiveness This Agreement shall become effective as of the first date written above. Once effective, this Agreement shall remain in effect for two years, and thereafter shall continue automatically for successive one-year periods; provided that such continuance is specifically approved at least annually by: (i) the vote of the Board of Directors, or by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Company and (ii) the vote of a majority of the Independent Directors, in accordance with the requirements of the 1940 Act.
Counterparts and Effectiveness This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, which shall be treated as originals for all purposes, and all so executed shall constitute one agreement, binding on all of the parties hereto, notwithstanding that all the parties are not signatory to the original or the same counterpart. Any such counterpart shall be admissible into evidence as an original hereof against each Person who executed it. The execution of this Agreement and delivery thereof by facsimile shall be sufficient for all purposes, and shall be binding upon any party who so executes.
Continued Effectiveness The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act in order to permit the Prospectus forming part of the Shelf Registration Statement to be usable by Holders until the earlier of: (i) the date as of which all Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement or another Registration Statement filed under the Securities Act (but in no event prior to the applicable period referred to in Section 4(a)(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 thereunder); and (ii) the date as of which no Holder holds Registrable Securities (such period of effectiveness, the “Shelf Period”). Subject to Section 3.2.4, the Company shall be deemed not to have used its reasonable best efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective during the Shelf Period if the Company voluntarily takes any action or omits to take any action that would result in Holders of the Registrable Securities covered thereby not being able to offer and sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement during the Shelf Period, unless such action or omission is required by applicable law.
Notice of Effectiveness Within two (2) Business Days after the Registration Statement which includes the Registrable Securities is ordered effective by the Commission, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities (with copies to the Holders whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration Statement) confirmation that the Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.
