UNDERTAKINGS OF THE PLEDGOR Unless otherwise permitted by the Principal Finance Documents, during the term of this Agreement, the Pledgor undertakes to the Pledgee:
8.1 subject to Clause 4.3 to use all reasonable efforts to procure that each Account Bank releases any existing lien, including without limitation any pledge existing by operation of its general business conditions (Allgemeine Geschäftsbedingungen), and waives any right of set-off and right of retention in respect of the Accounts by countersigning and returning an acknowledgement of notice of pledge substantially in the form set out in Schedule 3 (Form of Notice of Pledge) to the Pledgor and the Pledgee.
8.2 to instruct each Account Bank to provide the Pledgee following receipt by the relevant Account Bank of a notice pursuant to Clause 5 with all information requested by it in respect of the Accounts and to that extent to release each Account Bank from its obligation to maintain confidentiality (Bankgeheimnis) by delivering a notice of pledge to the respective Account Bank in accordance with the requirements set out in Clause 4.1 or, in the case of any future Account, Clause 8.
Default of One or More of the Several Underwriters If, on the First Closing Date or any Option Closing Date any one or more of the several Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Offered Shares that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate number of Offered Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase does not exceed 10% of the aggregate number of the Offered Shares to be purchased on such date, the Representatives may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the purchase of such Offered Shares by other persons, including any of the Underwriters, but if no such arrangements are made by such date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, in the proportions that the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite their respective names on Schedule A bears to the aggregate number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as may be specified by the Representatives with the consent of the non-defaulting Underwriters, to purchase the Offered Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date. If, on the First Closing Date or any Option Closing Date any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Offered Shares and the aggregate number of Offered Shares with respect to which such default occurs exceeds 10% of the aggregate number of Offered Shares to be purchased on such date, and arrangements satisfactory to the Representatives and the Company for the purchase of such Offered Shares are not made within 48 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability of any party to any other party except that the provisions of Section 4, Section 7, Section 9 and Section 10 shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination. In any such case either the Representatives or the Company shall have the right to postpone the First Closing Date or the applicable Option Closing Date, as the case may be, but in no event for longer than seven days in order that the required changes, if any, to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or any other documents or arrangements may be effected. As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” shall be deemed to include any person substituted for a defaulting Underwriter under this Section 11. Any action taken under this Section 11 shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.
Limitations of Liability of the Board and Shareholders of the Investment Company The execution and delivery of this Agreement have been authorized by the Board of the Investment Company and signed by an authorized officer of the Investment Company, acting as such, and neither such authorization by the Board nor such execution and delivery by such officer shall be deemed to have been made by any of them individually or to impose any liability on any of them personally, and the obligations of this Agreement are not binding upon any member of the Board or Shareholders of the Investment Company, but bind only the property of the Fund, or Class, as provided in the Declaration of Trust.
Termination of the Obligations of the Underwriters The obligations of the Underwriters to purchase the Notes on the Closing Date shall be terminable by the Representatives by written notice delivered to the Issuer and the Company if at any time on or before the Closing Date (a) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or materially limited, or there shall have been any setting of minimum prices for trading on such exchange, (b) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York or Virginia shall have been declared by any of Federal, New York state or Virginia state authorities, (c) there shall have occurred any material outbreak or escalation of hostilities or other calamity or crisis, the effect of which on the financial markets of the United States is such as to make it, in the Representatives’ reasonable judgment, impracticable to market the Notes on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus or (d) any change or any development involving a prospective change, materially and adversely affecting (i) the Trust Assets taken as a whole or (ii) the business or properties of the Issuer, the Company or the Seller occurs, which, in the Representatives’ reasonable judgment, in the case of either clause (i) or (ii), makes it impracticable or inadvisable to market the Notes on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus. Upon such notice being given, the parties to this Agreement shall (except for the liability of the Issuer, the Company and the Seller under Section 9 and Section 10 of this Agreement and the liability of each Underwriter under Section 17 of this Agreement) be released and discharged from their respective obligations under this Agreement.
Obligations of the Academy Trust The Academy Trust must keep the Land clean and tidy and make good any damage or deterioration to the Land. The Academy Trust must not do anything to lessen the value or marketability of the Land without the Secretary of State’s consent.
Conditions of the Obligations of the Underwriter The obligations of the Underwriter hereunder shall be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties on the part of the Company set forth in Section 2 hereof, in each case as of the date hereof and as of each Closing Date as though then made, to the timely performance by each of the Company of its covenants and other obligations hereunder on and as of such dates, and to each of the following additional conditions:
Conditions to the Obligations of the Underwriter The several obligations of each Underwriter named in any Terms Agreement to purchase and pay for the Certificates will be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties on the part of the Depositor as of the date hereof, the date of the applicable Terms Agreement and the applicable Closing Date, to the accuracy of the statements made in any officers’ certificates (each an “Officer’s Certificate”) pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance by the Depositor of its obligations hereunder and to the following additional conditions precedent:
