Common use of No Fractional Units Clause in Contracts

No Fractional Units. No certificates or scrip representing fractional Parent Units or Parent Preferred Units shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates, Book-Entry Units or other evidence of Unit Options (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder of Common Units, Class F Units or Unit Options converted pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a Parent Unit (after taking into account all Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof), Book-Entry Units or other evidence of Unit Options (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) delivered by such holder) shall be entitled to receive, from the Exchange Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.2(h), a cash payment, without interest, in lieu of such fractional units representing such holder’s proportionate interest, if any, in the proceeds from the sale by the Exchange Agent (reduced by reasonable and customary fees of the Exchange Agent attributable to such sale) (as so reduced, the “unit proceeds”) in one or more transactions of a number of Parent Units, such number equal to the excess of (i) the aggregate number of Parent Units to be delivered to the Exchange Agent by Parent pursuant to Section 2.2(b) over (ii) the aggregate number of whole Parent Units to be distributed to the holders of Certificates pursuant to Section 2.2(c) (such excess, the “Excess Units”). The parties acknowledge that payment of the cash unit proceeds in lieu of issuing certificates or scrip for fractional units was not separately bargained-for consideration but merely represents a mechanical rounding off for purposes of avoiding the expense and inconvenience to Parent that would otherwise be caused by the issuance of fractional units. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent, as agent for the holders of Common Units, Class F Units or Unit Options that would otherwise receive fractional Parent Units, shall sell the Excess Units at then-prevailing prices on the NYSE in the manner provided in this Section 2.2(h) and such sales shall be executed in round lots to the extent practicable. Until the unit proceeds of such sale or sales have been distributed to the holders of such Common Units, Class F Units or Unit Options, or the Exchange Fund is terminated, the Exchange Agent shall hold such unit proceeds in trust for the benefit of the holders of such Common Units, Class F Units and Unit Options (the “Fractional Unit Proceeds”). The Exchange Agent shall determine the portion of the Fractional Unit Proceeds to which each holder of such Common Units, Class F Units or Unit Options shall be entitled, if any, by multiplying the amount of the aggregate unit proceeds comprising the Fractional Unit Proceeds by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the fractional unit interest to which such holder of such Common Units, Class F Units or Unit Options would otherwise be entitled and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of fractional unit interests to which all holders of such Common Units, Class F Units or Unit Options would otherwise be entitled.
