Appointment and Acceptance The Trust hereby appoints JNLD as distributor of the Shares of the Funds set forth on Schedule A on the terms and for the period set forth in this Agreement, and JNLD hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to render the services and undertake the duties set forth herein.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND ACCEPTANCE (a) In accepting the RSUs, the Participant acknowledges and agrees: (i) that the Plan is discretionary in nature and may be amended, cancelled, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time; (ii) that the grant of the RSUs does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of RSUs or any right to continue an employment or other relationship with the Company (for the vesting period or otherwise); (iii) that the Participant remains subject to discharge from such relationship to the same extent as if the RSUs had not been granted; (iv) that all determinations with respect to any such future grants, including, but not limited to, when and on what terms they shall be made, will be at the sole discretion of the Committee; (v) that participation in the Plan is voluntary; (vi) that the value of the RSUs is an extraordinary item of compensation that is outside the scope of the Participant’s employment contract if any; and (vii) that the grant of RSUs is not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar benefits.
(b) If the Participant does not want to accept the RSUs on the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement, the Plan and/or any related documents, the Participant may choose the “Decline” button. The RSUs will then be cancelled and no other benefit will be due to the Participant in lieu thereof. If Participant does not “Decline” the RSUs within thirty (30) days from the Grant Date, the Participant shall be deemed to have accepted the RSUs and shall be deemed to have agreed to the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement, the Plan and/or any related documents.
(c) The grant of the RSUs is not intended to be a public offering of securities in the Participant’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different). The Company has not submitted any registration statement, prospectus or other filings with the local securities authorities (unless otherwise required under local law), and the grant of the RSUs is not subject to the supervision of the local securities authorities. No employee of the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries is permitted to advise the Participant on whether the Participant should acquire Shares as a result of settlement of the RSUs under the Plan. Investment in Shares involves a degree of risk. Before deciding to acquire Shares as a result of settlement of the RSUs, the Participant should carefully consider all risk factors relevant to the acquisition of Shares under the Plan and the Participant should carefully review all of the materials related to the RSUs and the Plan. In addition, the Participant should consult with the Participant’s personal advisor for professional investment advice.
(d) The Participant acknowledges and agrees that it is the Participant’s express intent that this Agreement, the Addendum (if applicable) and the Plan and all other documents, notices and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant to the award, be drawn up in English. If the Participant has received this Agreement, the Addendum and the Plan or any other documents related to the award translated into a language other than English, and if the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version shall control.
(e) As a condition to the grant of the RSUs, the Participant agrees to repatriate all payments attributable to the Shares and/or cash acquired under the Plan in accordance with local foreign exchange rules and regulations in the Participant’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different). In addition, the Participant also agrees to take any and all actions, and consents to any and all actions taken by the Company and its affiliates and subsidiaries and/or the Employer, as may be required to allow the Company and its affiliates and subsidiaries or the Employer to comply with local laws, rules and regulations in the Participant’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different). Finally, the Participant agrees to take any and all actions as may be required to comply with the Participant’s personal obligations under local laws, rules and regulations in the Participant’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different).
Effective Date; Duration This Agreement shall become effective when signed by both parties and approved by the City’s legal counsel. Unless sooner terminated, this Agreement shall expire on June 30, 2019. Termination or expiration shall not extinguish or prejudice the City’s right to enforce this Agreement with respect to any default or defect in performance that has not been cured.
Effective Date; Term This Agreement shall become effective on the date first written above and shall remain in force for a period of time of two years from such date, and from year to year thereafter but only so long as such continuance is specifically approved at least annually by the vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Fund, the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval, and by a vote of the Board of Trustees or of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Series. The aforesaid requirement that this Agreement may be continued "annually" shall be construed in a manner consistent with the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

Offer and Acceptance These terms shall constitute a binding contract upon execution by all parties (the “Contract”).
Amendments in Writing; Waiver; Integration No purported amendment or modification of any Loan Document, or waiver, discharge or termination of any obligation under any Loan Document, shall be enforceable or admissible unless, and only to the extent, expressly set forth in a writing signed by the party against which enforcement or admission is sought. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no oral promise or statement, nor any action, inaction, delay, failure to require performance or course of conduct shall operate as, or evidence, an amendment, supplement or waiver or have any other effect on any Loan Document. Any waiver granted shall be limited to the specific circumstance expressly described in it, and shall not apply to any subsequent or other circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar, or give rise to, or evidence, any obligation or commitment to grant any further waiver. The Loan Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements. All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of the Loan Documents merge into the Loan Documents.
Incremental Facility (a) So long as no Event of Default under subsection 8(a) or 8(f) exists or would arise therefrom, the Borrower shall have the right, at any time and from time to time after the Restatement Effective Date, (i) to request new term loan commitments under one or more new term loan credit facilities to be included in this Agreement (the “Incremental Term Loan Commitments”), (ii) to increase any then-existing Tranche of Term Loans by requesting new term loan commitments to be added to such existing Tranche of Term Loans (the “Supplemental Term Loan Commitments”), (iii) to request new commitments under one or more new revolving facilities to be included in this Agreement, which new revolving facilities may include one or more subfacilities for letters of credit or swing line loans (the “Incremental Revolving Commitments”), and (iv) to increase any then existing Tranche of revolving commitments by requesting new revolving loan commitments be added to such existing Tranche of revolving commitments (the “Supplemental Revolving Commitments,” and together with the Incremental Term Loan Commitments, Supplemental Term Loan Commitments and Incremental Revolving Commitments, the “Incremental Commitments”), provided that, (i) the aggregate amount of Incremental Commitments permitted pursuant to this subsection 2.5 shall not exceed, at the time the respective Incremental Commitment becomes effective (and after giving effect to the Incurrence of Indebtedness in connection therewith and the application of proceeds of any such Indebtedness, including to refinance other Indebtedness), an amount that could then be Incurred under this Agreement in compliance with subsection 7.1(b)(i)(II) or the definition of “Maximum Incremental Facilities Amount” and (ii) if any portion of an Incremental Commitment is to be incurred in reliance on clause (i) of the definition of “Maximum Incremental Facilities Amount”, the Borrower shall have delivered a certificate to the Administrative Agent, certifying compliance with the financial test set forth in such clause. Any loans made in respect of any such Incremental Commitment (other than Supplemental Term Loan Commitments and Supplemental Revolving Commitments) shall be made by creating a new Tranche.
(b) Each request from the Borrower pursuant to this subsection 2.5 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Commitments. The Incremental Commitments (or any portion thereof) may be made by any existing Lender or by any other bank or other financial institution (any such bank or other financial institution, an “Additional Incremental Lender”, and the Additional Incremental Lenders together with any existing Lender providing Incremental Commitments, the “Incremental Lenders”); provided that if such Additional Incremental Lender is not already a Lender hereunder or any affiliate of a Lender hereunder or an Approved Fund, the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required (it being understood that any such Additional Incremental Lender that is an Affiliated Lender shall be subject to the provisions of subsections 10.6(h) and 10.6(i), mutatis mutandis, to the same extent as if such Incremental Commitments and related Obligations had been obtained by such Lender by way of assignment).
(c) Supplemental Term Loan Commitments and Supplemental Revolving Commitments shall become commitments under this Agreement pursuant to a supplement specifying the Tranche of Term Loans or revolving commitments to be increased, executed by the Borrower and each increasing Lender substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G (the “Increase Supplement”) or by each Additional Incremental Lender substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H (the “Lender Joinder Agreement”), as the case may be, which shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent for recording in the Register. An Increase Supplement or Lender Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any other Lender, effect such amendments (including to subsection 2.2(b)) to the Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this subsection 2.5. Upon effectiveness of the Lender Joinder Agreement each Additional Incremental Lender shall be a Lender for all intents and purposes of this Agreement and the term loan made pursuant to such Supplemental Term Loan Commitment shall be a Term Loan or commitments made pursuant to such Supplemental Revolving Commitment shall be revolving commitments hereunder, as applicable.
(d) Incremental Commitments (other than Supplemental Term Loan Commitments and Supplemental Revolving Commitments) shall become commitments under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Commitment Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower and each applicable Incremental Lender. An Incremental Commitment Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lender, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, (x) to effect the provisions of this subsection 2.5 and/or (y) so long as such amendments are not materially adverse to the other Lenders, to maintain the fungibility of any such Incremental Term Loans with any tranche of then outstanding Term Loans, provided, however, that (i) (A) the Incremental Commitments will not be guaranteed by any Subsidiary of the Borrower other than the Subsidiary Guarantors, and will be secured by the same Collateral securing the Term Loan Facility Obligations or (at the Borrower’s option) will be unsecured, (B) the Incremental Commitments and any incremental loans drawn thereunder (the “Incremental Loans”) shall rank pari passu in right of payment with or (at the Borrower’s option) junior to the Term Loan Facility Obligations and (C) no Incremental Commitment Amendment may provide for (I) any Incremental Commitment or any Incremental Loans to be secured by any Collateral or other assets of any Loan Party that do not also secure the Loans and (II) so long as any Initial Term Loans, Incremental B-2019 Term Loans or Incremental B-2021 Term Loans are outstanding, any mandatory prepayment from the Net Cash Proceeds of Asset Dispositions (other than any Asset Disposition in respect of any assets, business or Person the acquisition of which was financed, all or in part, with Incremental Loans provided pursuant to such Incremental Commitment Amendment and the disposition of which was contemplated by any definitive agreement in respect of such acquisition) or Recovery Event, to the extent the Net Cash Proceeds of such Asset Disposition or Recovery Event are required to be applied to repay the Initial Term Loans, Incremental B-2019 Term Loans or Incremental B-2021 Term Loans pursuant to subsection 3.4(c), on more than a ratable basis with the Initial Term Loans, Incremental B-2019 Term Loans or Incremental B-2021 Term Loans (after giving effect to any amendment in accordance with subsection 10.1(d)(v)); (ii) no Lender will be required to provide any such Incremental Commitment unless it so agrees; (iii) the maturity date and the weighted average life to maturity of such Incremental Term Loan Commitments shall be no earlier than or shorter than, as the case may be, the Initial Term Loan Maturity Date or the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the Initial Term Loans, as applicable (other than an earlier maturity date and/or shorter weighted average life to maturity for customary bridge financings, which, subject to customary conditions (as determined by the Borrower in good faith), would either be automatically converted into or required to be exchanged for permanent financing which does not provide for an earlier maturity date or a shorter weighted average life to maturity than the Initial Term Loan Maturity Date or the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the Initial Term Loans, as applicable); (iv) the interest rate margins and (subject to clause (iii) above) amortization schedule applicable to the loans made pursuant to the Incremental Commitments shall be determined by the Borrower and the applicable Incremental Lenders; (v) such Incremental Commitment Amendment may provide for (1) the inclusion, as appropriate, of Additional Incremental Lenders in any required vote or action of the Required Lenders or of the Lenders of each Tranche hereunder, (2) class voting and other class protections for any additional credit facilities, (3) the amendment of the definitions of “Disqualified Stock”, “Junior Capital” and “Refinancing Indebtedness”, in each case only to extend the maturity date and the weighted average life to maturity requirements, from the Initial Term Loan Maturity Date and remaining weighted average life to maturity of the Initial Term Loans to the extended maturity date and the remaining weighted average life to maturity of such Incremental Term Loans, as applicable; and (vi) the other terms and documentation in respect thereof, to the extent not consistent with this Agreement as in effect prior to giving effect to the Incremental Commitment Amendment, shall otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower, provided that to the extent such terms and documentation are not consistent with, in the case of Incremental Term Loans, the terms and documentation governing the Initial Term Loans (except to the extent permitted by clause (iii), (iv), (v) or (vi) above), they shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
Extension Request The Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date on which Lenders under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, are requested to respond, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.16. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Term Loans of any Existing Term Loan Tranche amended into Extended Term Loans or any of its Revolving Credit Commitments amended into Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Lender holding a Loan under an Existing Term Loan Tranche (each, an “Extending Term Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to such Extension Request amended into Extended Term Loans and any Revolving Credit Lender (each, an “Extending Revolving Credit Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche subject to such Extension Request amended into Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, shall notify the Administrative Agent (each, an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Revolving Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, which it has elected to request be amended into Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable (subject to any minimum denomination requirements imposed by the Administrative Agent). In the event that the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Revolving Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, in respect of which applicable Term Lenders or Revolving Credit Lenders, as the case may be, shall have accepted the relevant Extension Request exceeds the amount of Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, requested to be extended pursuant to the Extension Request, Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, subject to Extension Elections shall be amended to Extended Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, on a pro rata basis (subject to rounding by the Administrative Agent, which shall be conclusive) based on the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, included in each such Extension Election.
EFFECTIVE DATE OF CONTRACT This contract shall not become effective until and unless approved by the City of Nashua.
