Rollover of Units (a) If the Depositor shall offer a subsequent series of the Trusts, (the "New Series"), the Trustee shall, at the Depositor's sole cost and expense, include in the notice sent to Unit holders specified in Section 8.02 a form of election whereby Unit holders, whose redemption distribution would be in an amount sufficient to purchase at least one Unit of the New Series, may elect to have their Unit(s) redeemed in kind in the manner provided in Section 5.02, the Securities included in the redemption distribution sold, and the cash proceeds applied by the Distribution Agent to purchase Units of a New Series, all as hereinafter provided. The Trustee shall honor properly completed election forms returned to the Trustee, accompanied by any Certificate evidencing Units tendered for redemption or a properly completed redemption request with respect to uncertificated Units, by its close of business on the Rollover Notification Date. The notice and form of election to be sent to Unit holders in respect of any redemption and purchase of Units of a New Series as provided in this section shall be in such form and shall be sent at such time or times as the Depositor shall direct the Trustee in writing and the Trustee shall have no responsibility therefor. The Distributions Agent acts solely as disbursing agent in connection with purchases of Units pursuant to this Section and nothing herein shall be deemed to constitute the Distribution Agent a broker in such transactions All Units so tendered by a Unit holder (a "Rollover Unit holder") shall be redeemed and cancelled during the Special Redemption and Liquidation Period on such date or dates specified by Depositor. Subject to payment by such Rollover Unit holder of any tax or other governmental charges which may be imposed thereon, such redemption is to be made in kind pursuant to Section 5.02 by distribution of cash and/or Securities to the Distribution Agent on the redemption date equal to the net asset value (determined on the basis of the Trust Fund Evaluation as of the redemption date in accordance with Section 4.01) multiplied by the number of Units being redeemed (herein called the "Rollover Distribution"). Any Securities that are made part of the Rollover Distribution shall be valued for purposes of the redemption distribution as of the redemption date. All Securities included in a Unit holder's Rollover Distribution shall be sold by the Distribution Agent during the Special Redemption and Liquidation Period specified in the Prospectus pursuant to the Depositor's direction, and the Distribution Agent shall, unless directed otherwise by the Depositor, employ the Depositor as broker in connection with such sales. For such brokerage services, the Depositor shall be entitled to compensation at its customary rates, provided however, that its compensation shall not exceed the amount authorized by applicable securities laws and regulations. The Depositor shall direct that sales be made in accordance with the guidelines set forth in the Prospectus under the heading "Special Redemption, Liquidation and Investment in a New Trust." Should the Depositor fail to provide direction, the Distribution Agent shall sell the Securities in the manner provided in the prospectus. The Distribution Agent shall have no responsibility for any loss or depreciation incurred by reason of any sale made pursuant to this Section. Upon completion of all sales of Securities included in the Rollover Unit holder's Rollover Distribution, the Distribution Agent shall, as agent for such Rollover Unit holder, enter into a contract with the Depositor to purchase from the Depositor Units of a New Series (if any), at the Depositor's public offering price for such Units on such day, and at such reduced sales charge as shall be described in the prospectus for such Trust. Such contract shall provide for purchase of the maximum number of Units of a New Series whose purchase price is equal to or less than the cash proceeds held by the Distribution Agent for the Unit holder on such day (including therein the proceeds anticipated to be received in respect of Securities traded on such day net of all brokerage fees, governmental charges and any other expenses incurred in connection with such sale), to the extent Units are available for purchase from the Depositor. In the event a sale of Securities included in the Rollover Unit holder's redemption distribution shall not be consummated in accordance with its terms, the Distribution Agent shall apply the cash proceeds held for such Unit holder as of the settlement date for the purchase of Units of a New Series to purchase the maximum number of Units which such cash balance will permit, and the Depositor agrees that the settlement date for Units whose purchase was not consummated as a result of insufficient funds will be extended until cash proceeds from the Rollover Distribution are available in a sufficient amount to settle such purchase. If the Unit holder's Rollover Distribution will produce insufficient cash proceeds to purchase all of the Units of a New Series contracted for, the Depositor agrees that the contract shall be rescinded with respect to the Units as to which there was a cash shortfall without any liability to the Rollover Unit holder or the Distribution Agent. Any cash balance remaining after such purchase shall be distributed within a reasonable time to the Rollover Unit holder by check mailed to the address of such Unit holder on the registration books of the Trustee. Units of a New Series will be uncertificated unless and until the Rollover Unit holder requests a certificate. Any cash held by the Distribution Agent shall be held in a non-interest bearing account which will be of benefit to the Distribution Agent in accordance with normal banking procedures. Neither the Trustee nor the Distribution Agent shall have any responsibility or liability for loss or depreciation resulting from any reinvestment made in accordance with this paragraph, or for any failure to make such reinvestment in the event the Depositor does not make Units available for purchase. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Depositor may, in its discretion at any time, decide not to offer any new Trust Series in the future, and if so, this Section
Vesting of Units For purposes of this Agreement, “Vesting Date” means any date, including the Scheduled Vesting Dates specified in the Vesting Schedule on the cover page of this Agreement, on which Units subject to this Agreement vest as provided in this Section 4.
Issuance of Units By executing the Reference Trust Agreement and receipt for deposited Securities, the Trustee will thereby acknowledge receipt of the deposit of the Securities listed in the Schedules to the Reference Trust Agreement and referred to in Section 2.01 hereof, and simultaneously with the receipt of said deposit, has recorded on its books the ownership, by the Depositor or such other person or persons as may be indicated by the Depositor, of the aggregate number of Units specified in the Reference Trust Agreement and has delivered, or on the order of the Depositor will deliver, in exchange for such Securities, cash or a Letter of Credit, documentation evidencing the ownership of the number of Units specified or, if requested by the Depositor, the ownership by DTC of all such Units and will cause such Units to be credited at DTC to the account of the Depositor or, pursuant to the Depositor's direction and as hereafter provided, the account of the issuer of the Letter of Credit referred to in Section 2.01. The number of Units in a Trust may be increased through a split of the Units or decreased through a reverse split thereof, as directed by the Depositor, on any day on which the Depositor is the only Unitholder of such Trust, which revised number of Units shall be recorded by the Trustee on its books. Effective as of the Evaluation Time on October 1, 2014, in the event that the aggregate value of Securities in the Trust has increased since the evaluation on September 30, 2014, the Trustee shall issue such number of additional Units to the Unitholder of outstanding Units as of the close of business on October 1, 2014, that the price per Unit computed as of the Evaluation Time on October 1, 2014, plus the maximum applicable sales charge shall equal approximately $10 per Unit (based on the number of Units outstanding as of said Evaluation Time, including the additional Units issued pursuant to this sentence); in the event that the aggregate value of Securities in the Trust Fund has decreased since the evaluation on September 30, 2014, there will be a reverse split of the outstanding Units, and said Unitholder will surrender to the Trustee for cancellation such number of Units, that the price per Unit computed as of the Evaluation Time on October 1, 2014, plus the maximum applicable sales charge shall equal approximately $10 per Unit (based on the number of Units outstanding as of said Evaluation Time, reflecting cancellation of Units pursuant to this sentence). The Trustee hereby agrees that on the date of any deposit of additional Securities pursuant to Section 2.05 it shall acknowledge that the additional Securities identified therein have been deposited with it by recording on its books the ownership, by the Depositor or such other person or persons as may be indicated by the Depositor, of the aggregate number of Units to be issued in respect of such additional Securities so deposited. (24) Section 2.01 is hereby amended and replaced in its entirety with the following:
Sale of Units On the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, you agree to sell the Units on a “best efforts” basis, as agent for the Fund. You are authorized to enlist other members of FINRA (“Soliciting Dealers”), acceptable to the Fund, to sell the Units. As compensation for these services, the Fund agrees that it will pay you a selling commission in an amount equal to 9% of the offering price of the Units sold pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, from which you may reallow a dealer commission of up to 7.5% of such offering price. In addition to such selling commissions, the Fund or the Manager will pay or reimburse to you or participating broker dealers an amount up to 1% of the Gross Proceeds as additional selling compensation in the form of underwriters’ expenses borne by the Fund, the Manager or their affiliates, as described in the following paragraph. You will pay wholesaling compensation to your personnel out of the selling commissions you will receive hereunder. Aggregate selling compensation paid in connection with the offering, will not exceed a total equal to 10% of the Gross Proceeds. It is understood that the Fund may pay or reimburse you and participating dealers a portion of their “underwriters’ expenses” incurred in connection with the offering, and the Fund, the Manager or their Affiliates may bear certain other expenses directly that may be deemed “underwriters’ expenses.” These underwriters’ expenses include amounts paid by the Fund, the Manager or its Affiliates to you and participating broker dealers relating to sales seminar costs and expenses; advertising and promotion expenses; travel, food and lodging costs; telephone expenses; and an allocable portion of any of your salary expenses and legal fees borne by the Manager or its Affiliates. All of such amounts paid to you or participating broker dealers, all underwriters’ expenses borne on behalf of you or any participating broker dealer by the Fund or any other party on its behalf, and all selling commissions are together deemed “underwriting compensation” paid in connection with the offering. The total of all underwriting compensation, including sales commissions, wholesaling salaries and commissions, retail and wholesaling expense reimbursements, seminar expenses and any other underwriters’ expenses or other forms of compensation paid to or for you or participating broker-dealers, will not exceed 10% of the Gross Proceeds. In addition to such selling compensation, the Fund may reimburse the Soliciting Dealers for their bona fide and accountable expenses for due diligence purposes; provided, however, that any such payment or reimbursement will be made only upon presentation of detailed, itemized invoices for such bona fide due diligence expenses. Bona fide due diligence expenses will include actual costs incurred by broker-dealers to review the business, financial statements, transactions, and investments of ATEL and its prior programs to determine the accuracy and completeness of information provided in the Prospectus, the suitability of the investment for their clients and the integrity and management expertise of ATEL and its personnel. Costs may include telephone, postage and similar communication costs incurred in communicating with ATEL personnel, and ATEL’s outside accountants and counsel in this pursuit; travel and lodging costs incurred in visiting the ATEL offices, reviewing ATEL’s books and records and interviewing key ATEL personnel; the cost of outside counsel, accountants and other due diligence investigation specialists engaged by the broker-dealer; and the internal costs of time and materials expended by broker-dealer personnel in this due diligence effort. ATEL will require full itemized documentation of any claimed due diligence expenditure and will determine whether the expenditure can be fairly allocated to bona fide due diligence investigation before permitting reimbursement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, it is understood and agreed that the Manager has reserved the right to accept or reject any subscriptions for Units as set forth in the Prospectus and no selling commission will be payable to you or any of the Soliciting Dealers with respect to the tender of any Subscription Agreement which is rejected by you or the Manager as aforesaid. Furthermore, no subscription will be deemed binding until at least five days following delivery of a Prospectus. The Fund further agrees that it will pay the foregoing selling commission with respect to the purchase price of each of the Units upon the Manager’s acceptance of the order for such Units; provided, however, that none of such commissions will be payable or paid until release to the Fund from the escrow account in which they are to be deposited of proceeds from subscriptions for a minimum of 120,000 Units. It is understood and agreed that you may, in your discretion, permit you, the Manager, a Soliciting Dealer or any Affiliate or employee of any of the foregoing or certain clients of registered investment advisors to purchase Units net of the 7.5% retail selling commissions at a per Unit price of $9.25, as more specifically described in the Prospectus under “Plan of Distribution—Investments by Certain Persons.” Any such sale of Units net of retail commissions to you, the Manager, a Soliciting Dealer or any Affiliate or employee of such person will only be made if and to the extent that any Soliciting Dealer which would otherwise be entitled to a selling commission on any such transaction agrees to such rebate.
Transfer of Units (i) Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, a Member may not sell, exchange, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of any of such Member's Units or any interest therein (a "Transfer") (except for a Transfer by Internet World to any Person or by any Member to a Permitted Transferee) without the written consent of the Board, which consent may be withheld for any reason. The Company shall not register any Transfer of a Member's Units or any interest therein, and any such Transfer or registration of Transfer shall be null and void, without the written consent of the Board. An assignee who has not been admitted as a Member shall be entitled only to allocations and distributions with respect to such interest in accordance with this Agreement, and shall have no right to any information or, to the fullest extent permitted by law, accounting of the affairs of the Company, shall not be entitled to inspect the books or records of the Company and shall not have any of the rights of a Member under the Act or this Agreement, but shall otherwise assume in writing prior to such Transfer, other than a pledge (in respect of which such compliance shall be required after sale or foreclosure), all obligations of the assignor hereunder as if such assignee were the assignor; no such assignment shall be valid unless the assumption of obligations described in this sentence has been executed. Neither a Transfer of Units nor the admission of the Transferee thereof as a Member shall discharge the transferor from any obligation hereunder. (ii) The restrictions contained in this SECTION 2.6(a) shall not apply with respect to any Transfer of Units or any part thereof by any Member (a) among its Affiliates, (b) to any lender to whom a Member's Units or any part thereof are assigned or pledged pursuant to a loan agreement, (c) to any Member's spouse or children or to a trust or the trustee or 8 68 trustees of a trust directly or indirectly for the benefit of the Member's spouse, children or a charitable organization, (d) to the Member's executors, administrator, testamentary trustee, legatees or beneficiaries upon the Member's death, or (e) by gift (all such transferees shall be collectively referred to as the "Permitted Transferees"); PROVIDED, that the Permitted Transferee shall execute a counterpart of this Agreement; and PROVIDED, FURTHER that the restrictions contained in this Agreement shall continue to apply to the Units after such Transfer by reference to the original Member; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the transferor shall remain liable for all of its obligations under this Agreement that survive.
Capital Contributions and Issuance of Partnership Interests Section 5.1
Number of Units The Participant is granted the number of RSUs as specified in the Participant’s account under the 0000 XXX grant, administered by Fidelity Investments or any successor thereto (“Fidelity”). A RSU is a hypothetical share of Verizon’s common stock. The value of a RSU on any given date shall be equal to the closing price of Verizon’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) as of such date. A Dividend Equivalent Unit (“DEU”) or fraction thereof shall be added to each RSU each time that a dividend is paid on Verizon’s common stock. The amount of each DEU shall be equal to the corresponding dividend paid on a share of Verizon’s common stock. The DEU shall be converted into RSUs or fractions thereof based upon the closing price of Verizon’s common stock traded on the NYSE on the dividend payment date of each declared dividend on Verizon’s common stock, and such RSUs or fractions thereof shall be added to the Participant’s RSU balance. To the extent that Fidelity or the Company makes an error, including but not limited to an administrative error with respect to the number or value of the RSUs granted to the Participant under this Agreement, the DEUs credited to the Participant’s account or the amount of the final award payment, the Company or Fidelity specifically reserves the right to correct such error at any time and the Participant agrees that he or she shall be legally bound by any corrective action taken by the Company or Fidelity.
Right to Acquire Limited Partner Interests (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if at any time the General Partner and its Affiliates hold more than 80% of the total Limited Partner Interests of any class then Outstanding, the General Partner shall then have the right, which right it may assign and transfer in whole or in part to the Partnership or any Affiliate of the General Partner, exercisable at its option, to purchase all, but not less than all, of such Limited Partner Interests of such class then Outstanding held by Persons other than the General Partner and its Affiliates, at the greater of (x) the Current Market Price as of the date three days prior to the date that the notice described in Section 15.1(b) is mailed and (y) the highest price paid by the General Partner or any of its Affiliates for any such Limited Partner Interest of such class purchased during the 90-day period preceding the date that the notice described in Section 15.1(b) is mailed.

Settlement of Units Subject to Section 8 below, as soon as practicable after any date on which Units vest (but no later than the 15th day of the third calendar month following the applicable vesting date), the Company shall cause to be issued and delivered to you (or to your personal representative or your designated beneficiary or estate in the event of your death, as applicable) one Share in payment and settlement of each vested Unit. Delivery of the Shares shall be effected by the issuance of a stock certificate to you, by an appropriate entry in the stock register maintained by the Company’s transfer agent with a notice of issuance provided to you, or by the electronic delivery of the Shares to a brokerage account, and shall be subject to the tax withholding provisions of Section 7 and compliance with all applicable legal requirements as provided in Section 17(c) of the Plan, and shall be in complete satisfaction and settlement of such vested Units. The Company will pay any original issue or transfer taxes with respect to the issue and transfer of Shares to you pursuant to this Agreement, and all fees and expenses incurred by it in connection therewith. If the Units that vest include a fractional Unit, the Company shall round the number of vested Units to the nearest whole Unit prior to issuance of Shares as provided herein.
Class B Units Class B Unitholders shall not be entitled to vote in any matters relating to the Company, unless otherwise reserved to the Members by the Act. In addition to the other rights and obligations of Class B Unitholders hereunder, Class B Units shall entitle the holder of such Class B Units to (i) Tax Distributions pursuant to Section 4.01(b), and (ii) a preferred return equal to the Class B Preferred Return Amount. The Class B Preferred Return Amount shall not be required to be paid annually but shall accrue and become payable at the earlier of (x) the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Effective Time, or (y) a liquidation of, or a taxable sale of substantially all of the assets of, the Company.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Class B Preferred Return Amount shall be due and payable with respect to such Class B Units pursuant this Section 3.02(b) at such time or times specified in this Section 3.02(b) unless such Class B Units remain issued and outstanding at such time or times and no Redemption or Direct Exchange of such Class B Units described in Article XI hereof has occurred.
