General Partner Loans The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, may obtain any Additional Funds by causing the Partnership to incur Debt to the General Partner if (i) such Debt is, to the extent permitted by law, on substantially the same terms and conditions (including interest rate, repayment schedule, and conversion, redemption, repurchase and exchange rights) as Funding Debt incurred by the General Partner, the net proceeds of which are loaned to the Partnership to provide such Additional Funds, or (ii) such Debt is on terms and conditions no less favorable to the Partnership than would be available to the Partnership from any third party; provided, however, that the Partnership shall not incur any such Debt if any Partner would be personally liable for the repayment of such Debt (unless such Partner otherwise agrees).
Member Loans The Member may make loans (“Member Loans”) to the Company, which shall bear interest and be repaid on such reasonable terms and conditions as may be approved by the Member.
No Partnership This Agreement shall not be interpreted or construed to create an association, joint venture, agency relationship, or partnership among the Parties or to impose any partnership obligation or partnership liability upon any Party. No Party shall have any right, power or authority to enter into any agreement or undertaking for, or act on behalf of, or to act as or be an agent or representative of, or to otherwise bind, any other Party.
No Partnership, Etc The Lenders and Borrower intend that the relationship between them shall be solely that of creditor and debtor. Nothing contained in this Agreement, the Notes or in any of the other Credit Facility Documents shall be deemed or construed to create a partnership, tenancy-in-common, joint tenancy, joint venture or co-ownership by or between the Lenders and Borrower or any other Person.
Loans from the General Partner; Loans or Contributions from the Partnership or Group Members (a) The General Partner or any of its Affiliates may lend to any Group Member, and any Group Member may borrow from the General Partner or any of its Affiliates, funds needed or desired by the Group Member for such periods of time and in such amounts as the General Partner may determine; provided, however, that in any such case the lending party may not charge the borrowing party interest at a rate greater than the rate that would be charged the borrowing party or impose terms less favorable to the borrowing party than would be charged or imposed on the borrowing party by unrelated lenders on comparable loans made on an arm’s-length basis (without reference to the lending party’s financial abilities or guarantees), all as determined by the General Partner. The borrowing party shall reimburse the lending party for any costs (other than any additional interest costs) incurred by the lending party in connection with the borrowing of such funds. For purposes of this Section 7.6(a) and Section 7.6(b), the term “Group Member” shall include any Affiliate of a Group Member that is controlled by the Group Member. (b) The Partnership may lend or contribute to any Group Member, and any Group Member may borrow from the Partnership, funds on terms and conditions determined by the General Partner. No Group Member may lend funds to the General Partner or any of its Affiliates (other than another Group Member). (c) No borrowing by any Group Member or the approval thereof by the General Partner shall be deemed to constitute a breach of any duty, expressed or implied, of the General Partner or its Affiliates to the Partnership or the Limited Partners by reason of the fact that the purpose or effect of such borrowing is directly or indirectly to (i) enable distributions to the General Partner or its Affiliates (including in their capacities as Limited Partners) to exceed the General Partner’s Percentage Interest of the total amount distributed to all partners or (ii) hasten the expiration of the Subordination Period or the conversion of any Subordinated Units into Common Units.
Shareholder Loans (a) Each Obligor will procure that prior to any Restricted Person making any Financial Indebtedness (other than Permitted Payments) available to any member of the Borrower Group, such Restricted Person shall enter into a Pledge of Subordinated Shareholder Loans on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Facility Agent and a Security Provider’s Deed of Accession and provides (i) the Facility Agent with such documents and evidence as it may reasonably require as to the power and authority of the Restricted Person to enter into such Pledge of Subordinated Shareholder Loans and Security Provider’s Deed of Accession and that the same constitute valid and legally binding obligations of such Restricted Person enforceable in accordance with their terms subject (to the extent applicable) to substantially similar qualifications to those made in the legal opinions referred to in Schedule 2 (Conditions Precedent Documents); and (ii) notification of such pledge to the relevant member of the Borrower Group. (b) Each Obligor shall ensure that each Subordinated Shareholder Loan and each shareholder loan entered into between an Obligor which is a party to an Obligor Pledge of Shareholder Loans as a creditor and a member of the Borrower Group is governed by the law of The Netherlands.
Capital Contributions Persons seeking to become a Member shall be required to purchase or acquire Shares and make capital contributions in such forms and in such amounts and at such times as the Board may require, if any, in its sole discretion (any, a “Capital Contribution”) whereupon a capital account for a new Member will be established, and, if applicable, accreted, in the amount of such Member’s Capital Contribution or based upon the fair market value of property contributed, and the new Member shall be issued a number of Class A Ordinary Shares as determined by the Board, and the Board shall update Exhibit A attached hereto accordingly. The provisions of this Section 3.1 are solely intended for the benefit of the Members and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall not be construed as conferring any benefit upon any creditor of the Company (and no such creditor shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement). The Members shall have no duty or obligation to any creditor of the Company to make any contribution to the Company.
Partnership Funds Pending application or distribution, the funds of the Partnership shall be deposited in such bank account or accounts, or invested in such interest-bearing or non-interest bearing investment, including, without limitation, checking and savings accounts, certificates of deposit and time or demand deposits in commercial banks, U.S. government securities and securities guaranteed by U.S. government agencies as shall be designed by the General Partner. Such funds shall not be commingled with funds of any other Person. Withdrawals therefrom shall be made upon such signatures as the General Partner may designate.
Capital Commitments (a) The Partnership may from time to time, in the discretion of the Managing General Partner, issue additional Partnership Units and admit additional Limited Partners to the Partnership. Any Person that acquires Partnership Units for cash (an “Investor”) will acquire such Units pursuant to an agreement (a “Subscription Agreement”) between such Investor and the Partnership pursuant to which such Investor agrees to acquire, and the Partnership agrees to issue, Partnership Units in exchange for Capital Contributions in cash on such terms and conditions as are provided in this Agreement and as may be provided in such Subscription Agreement. A Subscription Agreement shall become effective as of the date it has been executed and delivered by the Investor party thereto and accepted by the Managing General Partner on behalf of the Partnership. Units issuable pursuant to a Subscription Agreement may be issuable in installments, with each installment being issuable, and the Capital Contribution therefor being payable, in accordance with calls for capital (“Capital Calls”) issued pursuant to written notice (the “Capital Call Notice”) to the Investor party to such Subscription Agreement. The total purchase price payable by any Investor under a Subscription Agreement for the Units issuable pursuant thereto is referred to as such Investor’s “Capital Commitment”. Each Investor which acquires any Units pursuant to a Subscription Agreement shall be deemed to be admitted to the Partnership as a Partner immediately upon the payment of the purchase price for the first Units so issued to such Investor. The aggregate amount of Capital Contributions made by a Partner (in cash or property) is referred to herein as such Partner’s “Funded Commitment”, and the portion of the Capital Commitment provided for in any Subscription Agreement that remains unpaid after any closing of a purchase and issuance of Units thereto shall be referred to as the “Unfunded Commitment” of the Partner party to such Subscription Agreement. Except as provided in Section 11.4(c), in no event will any Partner be required to contribute any capital to the Partnership in excess of such Partner’s Capital Commitment. (b) If at any time the Managing General Partner determines to raise capital by issuing Capital Calls to Partners having Unfunded Commitments, it shall generally issue such Capital Calls pro rata to each such Partner in proportion to the Unfunded Commitment of each such Partner. However, the Managing General Partner may, in its discretion, issue Capital Calls other than pro rata to the extent required by the terms of any Subscription Agreement or other agreement between the Partnership or the Managing General Partner and one or more Partners, or if the Managing General Partner otherwise deems it advisable to issue Capital Calls in some manner other than pro rata (for example, to assist in achieving or maintaining the status of any REIT in which the Partnership has a direct or indirect interest as a “domestically controlled” REIT). Each Capital Call Notice issued by the Managing General Partner shall specify the account to which Capital Contributions are to be delivered pursuant thereto and the date on which such Capital Contributions are due (“Payment Date”), which date shall be no sooner than ten Business Days after the date such Capital Call Notice is issued. All Capital Contributions made on or before the Payment Date specified in a Capital Call Notice shall be deemed to have been made on such Payment Date.
Additional Capital Contributions and Issuances of Additional Partnership Interests Except as provided in this Section 4.2 or in Section 4.3, the Partners shall have no right or obligation to make any additional Capital Contributions or loans to the Partnership. The General Partner may contribute additional capital to the Partnership, from time to time, and receive additional Partnership Interests in respect thereof, in the manner contemplated in this Section 4.2.
