PIPE Investment (a) Following the Original Agreement Date and until the date of the mailing of the Proxy Statement to the stockholders of Acquiror may enter into subscription agreements (each, a “Subscription Agreement”) with investors (a “PIPE Investor”) relating to an investment in convertible preferred stock of Acquiror (“PIPE Securities”) pursuant to a private placement to be consummated immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination (the “PIPE”), in either case, on terms mutually agreeable to Acquiror and the Company acting reasonably and in good faith (a “PIPE Investment”), provided that, unless otherwise agreed by Acquiror and the Company, the aggregate gross proceeds under the Subscription Agreements shall not exceed $100,000,000 (the “PIPE Investment Amount”), provided further that, such PIPE Investment Amount shall be increased to account for any fees paid by the Company in connection with the negotiation, execution and/or consummation of the PIPE Investment Amount. In connection with Acquiror seeking a PIPE Investment, Acquiror and the Company shall, and shall cause their respective Representatives to, cooperate with each other and their respective Representatives in connection with such PIPE Investment and use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause such PIPE Investment to occur (including having the Company’s senior management participate in any investor meetings and roadshows as reasonably requested by Acquiror). In connection with a PIPE Investment, to the extent necessary to address the treatment of the PIPE Securities underlying such PIPE Investment hereunder, Acquiror and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to reflect such PIPE Securities.
(b) Acquiror shall not reduce the PIPE Investment Amount or the subscription amount under any Subscription Agreement or reduce or impair the rights of Acquiror under any Subscription Agreement, permit any amendment or modification to be made to, any waiver (in whole or in part) of, or provide consent to modify (including consent to terminate), any provision or remedy under, or any replacements of, any of the Subscription Agreements, in each case, other than any assignment or transfer contemplated therein or expressly permitted thereby (without any further amendment, modification or waiver to such assignment or transfer provision); provided, that, in the case of any such assignment or transfer, the initial party to such Subscription Agreement remains bound by its obligations with respect thereto in the event that the transferee or assignee, as applicable, does not comply with its obligations to consummate the purchase of the PIPE Securities contemplated thereby, unless otherwise approved in writing by the other Party (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and except for any of the foregoing actions that would not increase conditionality or impose any new obligation on Acquiror.
(c) Acquiror shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by any Subscription Agreement to which it is a party on the terms and conditions described therein, including maintaining in effect such Subscription Agreement and to use its reasonable best efforts to: (i) satisfy in all material respects on a timely basis all conditions and covenants applicable to Acquiror in such Subscription Agreement and otherwise comply with its obligations thereunder, (ii) confer with the Company regarding timing for delivery of any closing notice pursuant to such Subscription Agreement, and (iii) enforce its rights under such Subscription Agreement in the event that all conditions in such Subscription Agreement (other than conditions that Acquiror, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates control the satisfaction of and other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied, to cause the applicable PIPE Investor to pay to (or as directed by) Acquiror the consideration set forth in such Subscription Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by such Subscription Agreement at or prior to Closing, in accordance with its terms.
(d) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Acquiror shall give the Company prompt written notice: (i) of any breach or default (or any event or circumstance that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, could give rise to any breach or default) by any party to any Subscription Agreement known to Acquiror; (ii) of the receipt of any written notice or other written communication from any party to any Subscription Agreement with respect to any actual, potential, threatened or claimed expiration, lapse, withdrawal, breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to any Subscription Agreement or any provisions of any Subscription Agreement; (iii) of any amendment, waiver or modification to any Subscription Agreement entered into by Acquiror that such Party was permitted to make without the prior written consent of the Company in accordance with this Section 8.04(d), it being understood that such amendment, waiver or modification is not conditioned on delivery of such notice and (iv) if Acquiror does not expect to receive all or any portion of financing proceeds on the terms, in the manner or from the applicable PIPE Investors as contemplated by the Subscription Agreements.
Investment Management If and to the extent requested by the Advisor, the Sub-Advisor shall, subject to the supervision of the Advisor, manage all or a portion of the investments of the Portfolio in accordance with the investment objective, policies and limitations provided in the Portfolio's Prospectus or other governing instruments, as amended from time to time, the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act") and rules thereunder, as amended from time to time, and such other limitations as the Trust or Advisor may impose with respect to the Portfolio by notice to the Sub-Advisor. With respect to the portion of the investments of the Portfolio under its management, the Sub-Advisor is authorized to make investment decisions on behalf of the Portfolio with regard to any stock, bond, other security or investment instrument, and to place orders for the purchase and sale of such securities through such broker-dealers as the Sub-Advisor may select. The Sub-Advisor may also be authorized, but only to the extent such duties are delegated in writing by the Advisor, to provide additional investment management services to the Portfolio, including but not limited to services such as managing foreign currency investments, purchasing and selling or writing futures and options contracts, borrowing money or lending securities on behalf of the Portfolio. All investment management and any other activities of the Sub-Advisor shall at all times be subject to the control and direction of the Advisor and the Trust's Board of Trustees.
Investment Management Fee For services provided under subparagraph (b) of paragraph 1 of this Agreement, the Advisor agrees to pay the Sub-Advisor a monthly Investment Management Fee. The Investment Management Fee shall be equal to: (i) 50% of the monthly management fee rate (including performance adjustments, if any) that the Portfolio is obligated to pay the Advisor under its Management Contract with the Advisor, multiplied by: (ii) the fraction equal to the net assets of the Portfolio as to which the Sub-Advisor shall have provided investment management services divided by the net assets of the Portfolio for that month. If in any fiscal year the aggregate expenses of the Portfolio exceed any applicable expense limitation imposed by any state or federal securities laws or regulations, and the Advisor waives all or a portion of its management fee or reimburses the Portfolio for expenses to the extent required to satisfy such limitation, the Investment Management Fee paid to the Sub-Advisor will be reduced by 50% of the amount of such waivers or reimbursements multiplied by the fraction determined in (ii). If the Sub-Advisor reduces its fees to reflect such waivers or reimbursements and the Advisor subsequently recovers all or any portion of such waivers and reimbursements, then the Sub-Advisor shall be entitled to receive from the Advisor a proportionate share of the amount recovered. To the extent that waivers and reimbursements by the Advisor required by such limitations are in excess of the Advisor's management fee, the Investment Management Fee paid to the Sub-Advisor will be reduced to zero for that month, but in no event shall the Sub-Advisor be required to reimburse the Advisor for all or a portion of such excess reimbursements.
Status and Investment Intent (a) Status of the Purchaser. The Purchaser is either (i) an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act or (ii) not a “U.S. person” within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act.
Minimum Investment Prior to the Rent Commencement Date, Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, shall refurbish, redecorate and modernize the interiors and exteriors of the Premises, and otherwise complete the initial improvements necessary and appropriate to commence operations in the Premises (the “Initial Improvements”), at a minimum cost of the Minimum Investment Amount or less than said amount provided Tenant complies with the Concessions Design Guidelines and receives Design Review Committee approval. As-Built drawings of fire sprinkler and fire alarm systems must be submitted to Building Inspection and Code Enforcement (“XXXX”) in AUTOCAD “.DWG” format within 30 days of issuance of a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy (TCO). Within ninety (90) days after substantial completion of the Initial Improvements, Tenant must provide to City an AUTOCAD file and an electronic PDF file in accordance with the requirements as specified in the Tenant Improvement Guide and an affidavit, signed under penalty of perjury by both Tenant and Tenant’s general contractor, architect or construction manager, stating the hard construction costs paid by Tenant to complete the Initial Improvements, together with copies of paid invoices and lien waivers substantiating the costs stated in the affidavit. Such “hard construction costs,” which must equal or exceed the Minimum Investment Amount, may include architectural and engineering fees, provided the credit for such costs against the Minimum Investment Amount shall not exceed fifteen percent (15%) of the Minimum Investment Amount. The minimum investment may not include financial costs, interest, inventory, pre-opening expenses, inter-company charges related to construction, business interruption, overhead, or debt service on any construction loan, or any charges paid by Tenant to an affiliate. If Director disputes the amount of investment claimed by Tenant, Director may, at City’s expense, hire an independent appraiser to determine the cost of the investment. If the independent appraiser determines that the investment is less than the Minimum Investment Amount, the deficiency, as well as City’s costs of hiring such independent appraiser, will be paid to City by Tenant within sixty (60) days of City’s written notice of the appraiser’s determination. At any time, upon three (3) business days’ notice, City or its representatives may audit all of Tenant’s books, records and source documents related to the hard construction costs paid by Tenant to complete the Initial Improvements. If the audit reveals that the hard construction costs paid by Tenant were less than those stated in Tenant’s affidavit, then Tenant must pay City for the costs incurred by City in connection with the audit plus any additional deficiency discovered between the hard construction costs paid by Tenant and the Minimum Investment Amount. City, at City’s sole discretion, may require that Tenant comply with the terms of a Tenant Work Letter setting forth additional terms relating to Tenant’s construction of the Initial Improvements, and Tenant hereby agrees to comply with any such Tenant Work Letter.
