Underwriter’s Review of Proposed Amendments and Supplements During the period beginning at the Applicable Time and ending on the later of the Closing Date or such date as, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, the Prospectus is no longer required by law to be delivered in connection with sales by the Underwriters or selected dealers, including under circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 under the Securities Act (the “Prospectus Delivery Period”), prior to amending or supplementing the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, including any amendment or supplement through incorporation by reference of any report filed under the Exchange Act, the Company shall furnish to the Underwriters for review a copy of each such proposed amendment or supplement, and the Company shall not file any such proposed amendment or supplement to which the Underwriters reasonably objects.
Requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns Following the expiration of the applicable Lock-Up Period, at any time and from time to time when an effective Shelf is on file with the Commission, any Holder or the Sponsor (any of the Holders or the Sponsor, a “Demanding Holder”) may request to sell all or any portion of its Registrable Securities in an Underwritten Offering or other coordinated offering that is registered pursuant to the Shelf (each, an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”); provided that the Company shall only be obligated to effect an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if such offering shall include Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by the Demanding Holder, either individually or together with other Demanding Holders, with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $25 million (the “Minimum Takedown Threshold”). All requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns shall be made by giving written notice to the Company, which shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown. The Company shall have the right to select the Underwriters for such offering (which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks), subject to the initial Demanding Holder’s prior approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The Holders, collectively, on the one hand, and the Sponsor, on the other hand, may each demand Underwritten Shelf Takedowns pursuant to this Section 2.1.5 (i) not more than two times in any 12-month period (the “Yearly Limit”) and (ii) not more than five times in the aggregate (the “Total Limit”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company may effect any Underwritten Offering pursuant to any then-effective Registration Statement, including a Form S-3, that is then available for such offering.
Sale and Delivery to Underwriters Closing (a) The several commitments of the Underwriters to purchase the Underwritten Securities pursuant to the applicable Terms Agreement shall be deemed to have been made on the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained and shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein or in the applicable Terms Agreement.
(b) In addition, on the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained and subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, may grant, if so provided in the applicable Terms Agreement relating to the Initial Underwritten Securities, an option to the Underwriters named in such Terms Agreement, severally and not jointly, to purchase up to the number of Option Securities set forth therein at the same price per Option Security as is applicable to the Initial Underwritten Securities, less an amount equal to any dividends or distributions declared by the Company and paid or payable on the Initial Underwritten Securities but not payable on the Option Securities. Such option, if granted, will expire 30 days (or such lesser number of days as may be specified in the applicable Terms Agreement) after the Representation Date relating to the Initial Underwritten Securities, and may be exercised in whole or in part from time to time upon notice by the Representatives to the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, setting forth the number of Option Securities as to which the several Underwriters are then exercising the option and the time, date and place of payment and delivery for such Option Securities. Any such time, date and place of delivery (a “Date of Delivery”) shall be determined by the Representatives, but shall not be later than seven full business days nor earlier than two full business days after the exercise of said option, nor in any event prior to the Closing Time, unless otherwise agreed upon by the Representatives and the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be. If the option is exercised as to all or any portion of the Option Securities, each of the Underwriters, acting severally and not jointly, will purchase that proportion of the total number of Option Securities then being purchased which the number of Initial Underwritten Securities each such Underwriter has severally agreed to purchase as set forth in the applicable Terms Agreement bears to the total number of Initial Underwritten Securities (except as otherwise provided in the applicable Terms Agreement), subject to such adjustments as the Representatives in their discretion shall make to eliminate any sales or purchases of fractional Underwritten Securities.
(c) Payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of certificates for, the Initial Underwritten Securities to be purchased by the Underwriters shall be made at the offices of Xxxxxxxx Chance US LLP, 00 Xxxx 00xx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Representatives and the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, at 10:00 A.M. on the fourth business day (or the third business day if required under Rule 15c6-1 of the 1934 Act, or unless postponed in accordance with the provisions of Section 10) following the date of the applicable Terms Agreement or at such other time as shall be agreed upon by the Representatives and the Company (such time and date of payment and delivery being herein called the “Closing Time”). In addition, in the event that any or all of the Option Securities are purchased by the Underwriters, payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of certificates for, such Option Securities shall be made at the above-mentioned offices of Xxxxxxxx Chance US LLP, or at such other place as shall be agreed upon by the Representatives and the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, on each Date of Delivery as specified in the notice from the Representatives to the Company. Payment for the Underwritten Securities shall be made to the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated by the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, against delivery to the Representatives for the respective accounts of the Underwriters of the Underwritten Securities to be purchased by them. Certificates for the Underwritten Securities and the Option Securities, if any, shall be in such denominations and registered in such names as the Representatives may request in writing at least two business days before the Closing Time or the relevant Date of Delivery, as the case may be. It is understood that each Underwriter has authorized the Representatives, for its account, to accept delivery of, receipt for, and make payment of the purchase price for, the Underwritten Securities and the Option Securities, if any, which it has agreed to purchase. The Representatives, individually and not as representatives of the Underwriters, may (but shall not be obligated to) make payment of the purchase price for the Underwritten Securities or the Option Securities, if any, to be purchased by any Underwriter whose funds have not been received by the Closing Time or the relevant Date of Delivery, as the case may be, but any such payment shall not relieve such Underwriter from its obligations hereunder. The certificates for the Initial Securities and the Option Securities, if any, will be made available for examination and packaging by the Representatives not later than 10:00 A.M. on the last business day prior to the Closing Time or the relevant Date of Delivery, as the case may be, in New York, New York. If authorized by the applicable Terms Agreement, the Underwriters named therein may solicit offers to purchase Underwritten Securities from the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, pursuant to delayed delivery contracts (“Delayed Delivery Contracts”) substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto with such changes therein as the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, may approve. As compensation for arranging Delayed Delivery Contracts, the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, will pay to the Representatives at Closing Time, for the respective accounts of the Underwriters, a fee equal to that percentage of the amount of Underwritten Securities for which Delayed Delivery contracts are made at the applicable Closing Time as is specified in the applicable Terms Agreement. Any Delayed Delivery Contracts are to be with institutional investors of the types described in the Prospectus. At the applicable Closing Time, the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, will enter into Delayed Delivery Contracts (for not less than the minimum amount of Underwritten Securities per Delayed Delivery Contract specified in the applicable Terms Agreement) with all purchasers proposed by the Underwriters and previously approved by the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, as provided below, but not for an aggregate principal amount of Underwritten Securities in excess of that specified in the applicable Terms Agreement. The Underwriters will not have any responsibility for the validity or performance of Delayed Delivery Contracts. The Representatives shall submit to the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, at least three business days prior to the applicable Closing Time, the names of any institutional investors with which it is proposed that the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, will enter into Delayed Delivery Contracts and the amount of Underwritten Securities to be purchased by each of them, and the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, will advise the Representatives at least two business days prior to the applicable Closing Time, of the names of the institutions with which the making of Delayed Delivery Contracts is approved by the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be, and the amount of Underwritten Securities to be covered by each such Delayed Delivery Contract. The amount of Underwritten Securities agreed to be purchased by the several Underwriters pursuant to the applicable Terms Agreement shall be reduced by the amount of Underwritten Securities covered by Delayed Delivery Contracts, as to each Underwriter as set forth in a written notice delivered by the Representatives to the Company or the Operating Partnership, as the case may be; provided, however, that the total amount of Underwritten Securities to be purchased by all Underwriters shall be the total amount of Underwritten Securities covered by the applicable Terms Agreement, less the amount of Underwritten Securities covered by Delayed Delivery Contracts.

The Issuer shall in all cases receive the net asset value per share on all sales. If a sales charge is in effect, Distributors shall have the right subject to such rules or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission as may then be in effect pursuant to Section 22 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 to pay a portion of the sales charge to dealers who have sold shares of the Issuer. If a fee in connection with shareholder redemptions is in effect, the Issuer shall collect the fee and, unless otherwise agreed upon by the Issuer and Distributors, the Issuer shall be entitled to receive all of such fees.
