Initiation; Confirmation; Termination (a) An agreement to enter into a Transaction may be made orally or in writing at the initiation of either Buyer or Seller. On the Purchase Date for the Transaction, the Purchased Securities shall be transferred to Buyer or its agent against the transfer of the Purchase Price to an account of Seller. (b) Upon agreeing to enter into a Transaction hereunder, Buyer or Seller (or both), as shall be agreed, shall promptly deliver to the other party a written confirmation of each Transaction (a “Confirmation”). The Confirmation shall describe the Purchased Securities (including CUSIP number, if any), identify Buyer and Seller and set forth (i) the Purchase Date, (ii) the Purchase Price, (iii) the Repurchase Date, unless the Transaction is to be terminable on demand, (iv) the Pricing Rate or Repurchase Price applicable to the Transaction, and (v) any additional terms or conditions of the Transaction not inconsistent with this Agreement. The Confirmation, together with this Agreement, shall constitute conclusive evidence of the terms agreed between Buyer and Seller with respect to the Transaction to which the Confirmation relates, unless with respect to the Confirmation specific objection is made promptly after receipt thereof. In the event of any conflict between the terms of such Confirmation and this Agreement, this Agreement shall prevail. (c) In the case of Transactions terminable upon demand, such demand shall be made by Buyer or Seller, no later than such time as is customary in accordance with market practice, by telephone or otherwise on or prior to the business day on which such termination will be effective. On the date specified in such demand, or on the date fixed for termination in the case of Transactions having a fixed term, termination of the Transaction will be effected by transfer to Seller or its agent of the Purchased Securities and any Income in respect thereof received by Buyer (and not previously credited or transferred to, or applied to the obligations of, Seller pursuant to Paragraph 5 hereof) against the transfer of the Repurchase Price to an account of Buyer.
Duration; Termination; Notices; Amendment This Agreement will become effective on the date hereof and will continue in effect for a period of two years thereafter, and shall continue in effect for successive twelve-month periods thereafter, only so long as this Agreement is approved at least annually by votes of the Trust's Board of Trustees who are not parties to such Agreement or interested persons of any such party, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In addition, the question of continuance of the Agreement may be presented to the shareholders of the Fund; in such event, such continuance will be effected only if approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, (i) this Agreement may at any time be terminated without payment of any penalty either by vote of the Board of Trustees of the Trust or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, on thirty days' written notice to the Advisor, (ii) this Agreement will automatically terminate in the event of its assignment, and (iii) this Agreement may be terminated by the Advisor on ninety days' written notice to the Fund.

As used in this Section 10, the terms "assignment," "interested persons," and "vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities" will have the respective meanings set forth in Section 2(a)(4), Section 2(a)(19) and Section 2(a)(42) of the 1940 Act.
Expenses; Termination Fee (a) Except as set forth in this Section 8.3 and Section 6.12, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated herein shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses, whether or not the Offer and Merger are consummated. For the avoidance of doubt, Parent shall pay all filing fees payable pursuant to the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Laws, and the Company shall not be required to pay any fees or other payments to any Governmental Entity in connection with any filings under the HSR Act or such other filings as may be required under applicable Antitrust Laws in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement. (b) If: (i) (A) this Agreement is validly terminated by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(d) or by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(g), (B) following the date hereof and prior to the time of the termination of this Agreement, an Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly announced and (C) the Company consummates an Acquisition Proposal (with all references to 15% in the definition of Acquisition Proposal being treated as 50% for purposes of this clause “(i)”) within twelve (12) months after such termination or the Company enters into a definitive agreement within twelve (12) months after such termination to effect an Acquisition Proposal, which Acquisition Proposal is subsequently consummated; (ii) this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 8.1(e); or (iii) this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(f), then in the case of each of clauses “(i)” through “(iii),” the Company shall pay or cause to be paid to Parent, in cash at the time specified in the next sentence, a termination fee in the amount of $7,712,711 (the “Termination Fee”). Any Termination Fee shall be paid: (x) in the case of clause “(i)” of the preceding sentence of this (b), within two (2) Business Days after the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such Acquisition Proposal, (y) in the case of clause “(ii)” of the preceding sentence of this (b), within two (2) Business Days following termination of this Agreement and (z) in the case of clause “(iii)” of the preceding sentence of this (b), concurrently with a termination of this Agreement under Section 8.1(f). Any Termination Fee due under this Section 8.3(b) shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Parent. For the avoidance of doubt, the Termination Fee shall be payable only once and not in duplication even though the Termination Fee may be payable under one or more provisions hereof. Subject to Section 8.2(b), in the event that Parent shall receive full payment of the Termination Fee, the receipt of the Termination Fee shall be deemed to be liquidated damages for any and all losses or damages suffered or incurred by Parent, Acquisition Sub, any of their respective Affiliates or any other Person in connection with this Agreement (and the termination hereof), the Offer and the Merger (and the abandonment thereof) or any matter forming the basis for such termination, and none of Parent, Acquisition Sub, any of their respective Affiliates or any other Person shall be entitled to bring or maintain any claim, action or proceeding against the Company or any of its Affiliates for damages or any equitable relief arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, any of the transactions or any matters forming the basis for such termination. (c) The Company and Parent acknowledge and agree that the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the Company and Parent would not enter into this Agreement. In the event that the Company shall fail to pay the Termination Fee when due, Parent shall be entitled to receive interest on such unpaid Termination Fee and Expenses, commencing on the date that the Termination Fee or such Expenses became due, at a rate equal to the “prime rate” as published in The Wall Street Journal, Eastern Edition, in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date of payment (calculated daily on the basis of a year of 365 days and the actual number of days elapsed, without compounding) and in the event the Parent or Acquisition Sub commences a suit that results in a judgment against the Company for the Termination Fee (or portion thereof), the Company shall pay Parent its reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such suit.
Company Termination Fee (i) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 9.1(c)(i), or in the event that this Agreement is terminated by the Company pursuant to Section 9.1(d)(ii), then, in each case, the Company shall pay to Parent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, a fee in the amount of $135,500,000 (the “Company Termination Fee”) at or prior to the termination of this Agreement in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 9.1(d)(ii) or as promptly as practicable (and, in any event, within two Business Days following such termination) in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 9.1(c)(i). (ii) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by the Company or Parent pursuant to Section 9.1(b)(i) or Section 9.1(b)(iii), or in the event that this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 9.1(c)(ii) in respect of a Willful Breach by the Company of a covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement, and in each case at any time after the date of this Agreement prior to such termination (i) a Company Acquisition Proposal has been made to the Company and publicly announced and has not been withdrawn prior to the termination of this Agreement (or prior to the Company Stockholders’ Meeting in the case of a termination pursuant to Section 9.1(b)(iii)) and (ii) within twelve months after such termination, the Company (A) enters into an agreement with respect to a Company Acquisition Proposal and such Company Acquisition Proposal is subsequently consummated or (B) consummates a Company Acquisition Proposal, then, in any such event, the Company shall pay to Parent, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the Company Termination Fee less the amount of any Parent Expenses previously paid by the Company concurrently with the consummation of such transaction arising from such Company Acquisition Proposal (and in any event, within two Business Days following such consummation); provided, however, that for purposes of the definition of “Company Acquisition Proposal” in this Section 9.3(a)(ii), references to “15%” and “85%” shall be replaced by “50%”).
Early Termination Fees The amount if an Early Termination Fee that we are entitled to charge is: (a) the amount specified in or calculated in accordance with the relevant Plan; or (b) otherwise, a reasonable estimate of our lost profit as a result of an early termination.
Expenses; Termination Fees (a) Except as set forth in this Section 9.2, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions shall be paid by the party incurring such fees and expenses, whether or not the Merger is consummated. (b) If this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 9.1(b), then the Company shall pay to Parent the Expense Payment; (i) provided, however, if the only if as of the End Date all of the conditions to the Closing in ARTICLE 7 have been satisfied or waived except those set forth in Sections 7.7 or 7.16, the Company shall not be required to pay to Parent the Expense Payment; (ii) provided, further, however, if (i) as of the End Date all of the conditions to the Closing in ARTICLE 7 have been satisfied or waived except there is a Legal Proceeding described in clause (b) of Section 7.8 pending or threatened (or any other conditions of ARTICLE 7 have not been satisfied solely as a result of such Legal Proceeding and would be immediately satisfied if such Legal Proceeding did not exist, was settled or otherwise dismissed), (ii) the claim(s) with respect to such Legal Proceeding has been timely and duly reported to the carrier for the Company’s directors and officers and/or errors and omissions insurance and (iii) Parent terminates this Agreement, the Company shall not pay to Parent the Expense Payment and Parent shall pay to the Company $400,000. (c) If (i) this Agreement is terminated by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 9.1(b) or Section 9.1(d), (ii) at or prior to the time of the termination of this Agreement an Acquisition Proposal shall have been disclosed, announced, commenced, submitted or made, and (iii) on or prior to 12 months after the date of such termination, either an Acquisition Transaction is consummated or a definitive agreement relating to an Acquisition Transaction is entered into, then the Company shall pay to Parent the Expense Payment and a non-refundable fee in the amount of $600,000 (the “Fee”) in cash on or prior to the earlier of the date of consummation of such Acquisition Transaction or the date of execution of such definitive agreement; provided, however, that, solely for purposes of this Section 9.3(b), all references to “15%” in the definition of “Acquisition Transaction” shall be deemed to refer instead to “50%.” (d) If this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 9.1(e), or if this Agreement is terminated by Parent or the Company pursuant to any other provision of Section 9.1 at any time after the occurrence of a Triggering Event, then the Company shall pay to Parent the Fee and the Expense Payment in cash. (e) If this Agreement is terminated by Parent pursuant to Section 9.1(f), then the Company shall pay to Parent the Expense Payment. (f) Unless otherwise provided in this Section 9.3, any fee required to be paid pursuant to this Section 9.3 shall be paid and made within two business days after such termination. (g) Each party acknowledges and agrees that the covenants and obligations contained in this Section 9.3 are an integral part of the Transactions, and that, without these covenants and obligations, such party would not have entered into this Agreement. (h) If either party fails to pay when due any amount payable under this Section 9.3, then: (i) such party shall reimburse the other party for all costs and expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred in connection with the collection of such overdue amount and the enforcement by the other party of its rights under this Section 9.3; and (ii) the first party shall pay to the other party interest on such overdue amount (for the period commencing as of the date such overdue amount was originally required to be paid and ending on the date such overdue amount is actually paid to the other party in full) at a rate per annum 500 basis points over the “prime rate” (as announced by Bank of America, N.A. or any successor thereto) in effect on the date such overdue amount was originally required to be paid.
Term; Termination; Amendment This Agreement shall become effective and shall run for an initial period as specified for each Fund in Schedule A hereto. This Agreement shall continue in force from year to year after the initial period with respect to each Fund, but only as long as such continuance is specifically approved for each Fund at least annually in the manner required by the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder; provided, however, that if the continuation of this Agreement is not approved for each Fund, the Sub-Adviser may continue to serve in such capacity for each Fund in the manner and to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of its assignment and may be terminated at any time without the payment of any penalty by either party on sixty (60) days’ written notice to the Sub-Adviser. This Agreement may also be terminated by the Trust with respect to each Fund by action of the Board of Trustees or by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of such Fund on sixty (60) days’ written notice to the Sub-Adviser by the Trust. This Agreement may be terminated with respect to each Fund at any time without the payment of any penalty by the Manager, the Board of Trustees or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund in the event that it shall have been established by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Sub-Adviser or any officer or director of the Sub-Adviser has taken any action which results in a breach of the covenants of the Sub-Adviser set forth herein. The terms “assignment” and “vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities” shall have the meanings set forth in the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. Termination of this Agreement shall not affect the right of the Sub-Adviser to receive payments on any unpaid balance of the compensation described in Section 4 earned prior to such termination. This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event the Investment Management Agreement between the Manager and the Trust is terminated, assigned or not renewed. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented only by a written instrument duly executed by an authorized representative of each of the parties.
Renewal, Termination and Amendment This Agreement shall continue in effect, unless sooner terminated as hereinafter provided, until December 31, 2007 and shall continue in full force and effect for successive periods of one year thereafter, but only so long as each such continuance as to the Portfolio is specifically approved at least annually by vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio or by vote of a majority of the Trust's Board of Trustees; and further provided that such continuance is also approved annually by the vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not parties to this Agreement or interested persons of any such party. This Agreement may be terminated as to the Portfolio at any time, without payment of any penalty, by the Trust's Board of Trustees, by the Manager, or by a vote of the majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio upon 60 days' prior written notice to the Adviser, or by the Adviser upon 90 days' prior written notice to the Manager, or upon such shorter notice as may be mutually agreed upon. This Agreement shall terminate automatically and immediately upon termination of the Management Agreement between the Manager and the Trust. This Agreement shall terminate automatically and immediately in the event of its assignment. The terms "assignment" and "vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities" shall have the meaning set forth for such terms in the 1940 Act. This Agreement may be amended at any time by the Adviser and the Manager, subject to approval by the Trust's Board of Trustees and, if required by applicable SEC rules, regulations, or orders, a vote of a majority of the Portfolio's outstanding voting securities.
