Authorization of Securities The Securities to be sold by the Company under this Agreement have been duly authorized for issuance and sale to the Underwriters pursuant to this Agreement and, when issued and delivered by the Company pursuant to this Agreement against payment of the consideration set forth herein, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable; no holder of the Securities is or will be subject to personal liability by reason of being such a holder; and the issuance and sale of the Securities to be sold by the Company under this Agreement are not subject to any preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or other similar rights of any securityholder of the Company or any other person.
Valuation of Securities Securities shall be valued in accordance with (a) the Fund's Registration Statement, as amended or supplemented from time to time (hereinafter referred to as the "Registration Statement"); (b) the resolutions of the Board of Trustees of the Fund at the time in force and applicable, as they may from time to time be delivered to FUND ACCOUNTING, and (c) Proper Instructions from such officers of the Fund or other persons as are from time to time authorized by the Board of Trustees of the Fund to give instructions with respect to computation and determination of the net asset value. FUND ACCOUNTING may use one or more external pricing services, including broker-dealers, provided that an appropriate officer of the Fund shall have approved such use in advance.
Reservation of Securities The Company shall maintain a reserve from its duly authorized shares of Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the Transaction Documents in such amount as may be required to fulfill its obligations in full under the Transaction Documents. In the event that at any time the then authorized shares of Common Stock are insufficient for the Company to satisfy its obligations in full under the Transaction Documents, the Company shall promptly take such actions as may be required to increase the number of authorized shares.
Evaluation of Securities The Trustee shall determine separately and promptly furnish to the Depositor upon request the value of each issue of the Securities in the Trust as of the Evaluation Time on each of the days on which the Trustee shall make the Trust Evaluation required by Section 5.1. The value of each issue of Securities shall be determined in good faith by the Trustee in accordance with the following procedures: If the Securities are listed on a national or foreign securities exchange, such valuation shall be based on the closing sale price on such exchange which is the principal market thereof, deemed to be the New York Stock Exchange if the Securities are listed thereon (unless the Trustee deems such price inappropriate as a basis for valuation). If the Securities are not so listed, or, if so listed and the principal market therefor is other than such exchange or there is no closing sale price on such exchange, such valuation shall be based on the closing sale price in the over-the-counter market (unless the Trustee deems such price inappropriate as a basis for valuation) or if there is no such closing sale price, then the Trustee may utilize, at the Trust’s expense, an independent evaluation service or services approved by the Depositor to ascertain the values of the Securities. The independent evaluation service shall use any of the following methods, or a combination thereof, which it deems appropriate: (a) on the basis of current bid prices of such Securities as obtained from investment dealers or brokers (including the Depositor) who customarily deal in securities comparable to those held by the Trust, or (b) if bid prices are not available for any of such Securities, on the basis of bid prices for comparable securities, or (c) by appraisal of the value of the Securities on the bid side of the market or by such other appraisal as is deemed appropriate, or (d) by any combination of the above. As used herein, the closing sale price is deemed to mean the most recent closing sale price on the relevant securities exchange prior to the Evaluation Time. The Trustee shall be permitted to rely on these evaluations when determining the Unit Value. The Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability for the valuations supplied to it by the independent evaluation service. The Trustee shall also make an evaluation of the Securities deposited in the Trust as of the time said Securities are deposited under this Indenture pursuant to Section 2.1. Such evaluation shall be made on the same basis as set forth above and shall be included in the Schedules attached to the Reference Trust Agreement. If the Trust holds Securities denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the evaluation of such Security shall be converted to U.S. dollars based on current offering side exchange rates (unless the Trustee deems such prices inappropriate as a basis for valuation).”
Pledge of Securities Etc (a) To secure the Obligations of the Pledgor and for the purposes set forth in Section 1 hereof, the Pledgor hereby (i) grants to the Pledgee a security interest in all of the Collateral owned by the Pledgor, (ii) pledges and deposits as security with the Pledgee, the Pledged Stock owned by the Pledgor on the date hereof, and delivers to the Pledgee certificates or instruments therefor, which bear an endorsement in favor of the Pledgee substantially in the form and substance of Annex B (and accompanied by any transfer tax stamps required in connection with the pledge of such Pledged Stock), or such other instruments of transfer as are reasonably acceptable to the Pledgee, (iii) assigns, transfers, hypothecates, mortgages, charges and sets over to the Pledgee all of the Pledgor's right, title and interest in and to such Pledged Stock (and in and to the certificates or instruments evidencing such Pledged Stock), to be held by the Pledgee upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Pledge Agreement. (b) Promptly following the endorsement of the certificates representing the Pledged Stock described in paragraph (a) above, the Pledgor shall (i) cause the pledge granted hereby to be registered in the Shareholders' Book of the Company, substantially in the form and substance of Annex C hereto, and (ii) deliver to the Pledgee a copy of the page evidencing such registration.
Treatment of Securities as Debt It is intended that the Securities will be treated as indebtedness and not as equity for federal income tax purposes. The provisions of this Indenture shall be interpreted to further this intention.
Disposition of Securities The Securities may only be disposed of in compliance with state and federal securities laws. In connection with any transfer of Securities other than pursuant to an effective registration statement or Rule 144, to the Company or to an Affiliate of a Purchaser or in connection with a pledge as contemplated in Section 4.1(b), the Company may require the transferor thereof to provide to the Company at the Company’s expense, an opinion of counsel selected by the transferor and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer does not require registration of such transferred Securities under the Securities Act. As a condition of transfer, any such transferee shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and shall have the rights and obligations of a Purchaser under the Transaction Documents and registration statement, if any.
Delivery of Securities Sold Notwithstanding Section 4.03 above or any other provision of this Agreement, the Custodian, when instructed to deliver Securities against payment, shall be entitled, if in accordance with generally accepted market practice, to deliver such Securities prior to actual receipt of final payment therefor. In any such case, the Fund shall bear the risk that final payment for such Securities may not be made or that such Securities may be returned or otherwise held or disposed of by or through the person to whom they were delivered, and the Custodian shall have no liability for any for the foregoing.
Segregation of Securities The Bank shall identify on its books as belonging to the Fund the Foreign Portfolio Securities held by each foreign sub-custodian (each an "Eligible Foreign Custodian") selected by the Foreign Custody Manager, subject to receipt by the Bank of the necessary information from such Eligible Foreign Custodian if the Foreign Custody Manager is not the Bank.
