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.
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:
Distribution Fee The distribution fee payable to the Dealer Manager as additional compensation for serving as the dealer manager for the Offering and reallowable to Soliciting Dealers with respect to Shares sold by them, as described in the Corporation’s Prospectus.
Distribution Assistance Fees (Asset-Based Sales Charge) Within ten (10) days of the end of each month or at such other period as deemed appropriate by the Distributor, the Fund will make payments in the aggregate amount of up to 0.75% on an annual basis of the average during the month of the aggregate net asset value of Shares computed as of the close of each business day (the “Asset-Based Sales Charge”) outstanding 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 “Fund Maximum Holding Period”) from time to time for such payments. Such Asset-Based Sales Charge payments received from the Fund will compensate the Distributor for providing distribution assistance in connection with the sale of Shares. The distribution assistance to be rendered by the Distributor in connection with the Shares may include, but shall not be limited to, the following: (i) paying sales commissions to any broker, dealer, bank or other person or entity that sells Shares, and/or paying such persons “Advance Service Fee Payments” (as defined below) in advance of, and/or in amounts greater than, the amount provided for in Section 3(b) of this Agreement; (ii) paying compensation to and expenses of personnel of the Distributor who support distribution of Shares by Recipients; (iii) obtaining financing or providing such financing from its own resources, or from an affiliate, for the interest and other borrowing costs of the Distributor's unreimbursed expenses incurred in rendering distribution assistance and administrative support services to the Fund; and (iv) paying other direct distribution costs, including without limitation the costs of sales literature, advertising and prospectuses (other than those prospectuses furnished to current holders of the Fund's shares ("Shareholders")) and state "blue sky" registration expenses.
Distribution Expenses Each of the Funds expressly agrees to pay to Service Company, as requested, the Fund’s portion of the actual cost of distributing shares of the Funds, which shall mean its share of all of the direct and indirect expenses of a marketing and promotional nature including, but not limited to, advertising, sales literature, and sales personnel, as well as expenditures on behalf of any newly organized registered investment company which is to become a party of this Agreement pursuant to Section 5.4. The cost of distributing shares of the Funds shall not include distribution-related expenses of an administrative nature, which shall be allocated among the Funds pursuant to Section 3.2(A). Distribution expenses of a marketing and promotional nature shall be allocated among the Funds in the manner approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission in Investment Company Act Release No. 11645 (Feb. 25, 1981):
(1) 50% of these expenses will be allocated based upon each Fund’s average month-end assets during the preceding quarter relative to the average month-end assets during the preceding quarter of the Funds as a group.
(2) 50% of these expenses will be allocated initially among the Funds based upon each Fund’s sales for the 24 months ended with the last day of the preceding quarter relative to the sales of the Funds as a group for the same period. (Shares issued pursuant to a reorganization shall be excluded from the sales of a Fund and the Funds as a group.)
(3) Provided, however, that no Fund’s aggregate quarterly contribution for distribution expenses, expressed as a percentage of its assets, shall exceed 125% of the average expenses for the Funds as a Group, expressed as a percentage of the total assets of the Funds. Expenses not charged to a particular Fund(s) because of this 125% limitation shall be reallocated to other Funds on iterative basis; and that no Fund’s annual expenses for distribution shall exceed 0.2% of its average month-end net assets.
Distributions Payable in Cash; Redemption Payments In the event that the Board of the Investment Company shall declare a distribution payable in cash, the Investment Company shall deliver to FTIS written notice of such declaration signed on behalf of the Investment Company by an officer thereof, upon which FTIS shall be entitled to rely for all purposes, certifying (i) the amount per share to be distributed, (ii) the record and payment dates for the distribution, and (iii) that all appropriate action has been taken to effect such distribution. Once the amount and validity of any dividend or redemption payments to shareholders have been determined, the Investment Company shall transfer the payment amounts from the Investment Company's accounts to an account or accounts held in the name of FTIS, as paying agent for the shareholders, in accordance with any applicable laws or regulations, and FTIS shall promptly cause payments to be made to the shareholders.
Cash Distribution Fee by any Holder of ADSs, a fee not in excess of U.S. $5.00 per 100 ADSs (or fraction thereof) held for the distribution of cash dividends or other cash distributions (e.g., upon a sale of rights and other entitlements);
Monthly Fees ACS will xxxx Customer each month during the term of this Agreement based on number of "Actions" which occurred during the prior month. The definition of "Actions" and fees for each Action will be documented in each Task Order. Customer shall cause ACS to be paid the foregoing fees on a monthly basis within thirty (30) days of ACS' delivery of an invoice for the preceding month's Actions.
Payments; Fees Agent may, in its discretion, receive and retain any amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender under the Loan Documents, and a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have assigned to Agent such amounts until all Obligations owing to Agent, non-Defaulting Lenders and other Secured Parties have been paid in full. Agent may apply such amounts to the Defaulting Lender’s defaulted obligations, use the funds to Cash Collateralize such Lender’s Fronting Exposure, or readvance the amounts to Borrowers hereunder. A Lender shall not be entitled to receive any fees accruing hereunder during the period in which it is a Defaulting Lender, and the unfunded portion of its Commitment shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating the unused line fee under Section
3.2.1. If any LC Obligations owing to a Defaulted Lender are reallocated to other Lenders, fees attributable to such LC Obligations under Section 3.2.2 shall be paid to such Lenders. Agent shall be paid all fees attributable to LC Obligations that are not reallocated.
Returned Payment Fee If your account is subject to a Returned Payment Fee, the fee will be charged to your account when a payment is returned for any reason.
