The Private Placement Warrants have been duly authorized and, when delivered upon the consummation of the Offering, will be duly issued and delivered, and will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally from time to time in effect and by equitable principles of general applicability.

Other Investors As part of the Offering, the Company proposes to enter into Securities Purchase Agreements in the same form as this Agreement with certain other investors (the “Other Investors”), and the Company expects to complete sales of Shares to them. The Investor and the Other Investors are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Investors,” and this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Securities Purchase Agreements executed by the Other Investors are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Agreements.” The Company may accept executed Agreements from Investors for the purchase of Shares commencing upon the date on which the Company provides the Investors with the proposed purchase price per Share and concluding upon the date (the “Subscription Date”) on which the Company has notified Canaccord Xxxxx, Inc. (in its capacity as placement agent for the Shares, the “Placement Agent”) in writing that it will no longer accept Agreements for the purchase of Shares in the Offering, but in no event shall the Subscription Date be later than July 7, 2006. Each Investor must execute and deliver a Securities Purchase Agreement and a Registration Rights Agreement and must complete a Stock Certificate Questionnaire (in the form attached as Exhibit “A” hereto) and an Investor Questionnaire (in the form attached as Exhibit “B” hereto) in order to purchase Shares in the Offering.
Management Investors The term "Management Investors" shall have the meaning set forth in the preface.
Exculpation Among Investors Each Investor acknowledges that it is not relying upon any person, firm or corporation, other than the Company and its officers and directors, in making its investment or decision to invest in the Company. Each Investor agrees that no Investor nor the respective controlling persons, officers, directors, partners, agents, or employees of any Investor shall be liable to any other Investor for any action heretofore or hereafter taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in connection with the purchase of the Securities.
Voting Rights; Distributions; etc (a) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:
Classes of Partnership Units The General Partner is hereby authorized to cause the Partnership to issue Partnership Units designated as Class T Units, Class S Units, Class D Units, Class I Units and Class E Units. Each such Class shall have the rights and obligations attributed to that Class under this Agreement.
Additional Stockholders In connection with the issuance of any additional equity securities of the Company to any Person, the Company may permit such Person to become a party to this Agreement and succeed to all of the rights and obligations of a "Stockholder" under this Agreement by obtaining the consent of the holders of a majority of the Common Stockholder Shares and an executed counterpart signature page to this Agreement, and, upon such execution, such Person shall for all purposes be a "Stockholder" party to this Agreement.
Outside Activities of the Limited Partners Subject to the provisions of Section 7.5, which shall continue to be applicable to the Persons referred to therein, regardless of whether such Persons shall also be Limited Partners, any Limited Partner shall be entitled to and may have business interests and engage in business activities in addition to those relating to the Partnership, including business interests and activities in direct competition with the Partnership Group. Neither the Partnership nor any of the other Partners shall have any rights by virtue of this Agreement in any business ventures of any Limited Partner.
Directors, Trustees and Shareholders and Massachusetts Business Trust It is understood and is expressly stipulated that neither the holders of shares in the Fund nor any Directors or Trustees of the Fund shall be personally liable hereunder. With respect to any Fund which is a party to this Agreement and which is organized as a Massachusetts business trust (“Trust”), the term “Fund” means and refers to the trust established by its applicable trust agreement (Declaration of Trust) as the same may be amended from time to time. It is expressly agreed that the obligations of any such Trust hereunder shall not be binding upon any of the trustees, shareholders, nominees, officers, agents or employees of the Trust, personally, but bind only the trust property of the Trust, as provided in the Declaration of Trust of the Trust. The execution and delivery of this Agreement has been authorized by the trustees and signed by an authorized officer of the Trust, acting as such, and neither such authorization by such Trustees nor such execution and delivery by such officer shall be deemed to have been made by any of them, but shall bind only the trust property of the Trust as provided in its Declaration of Trust.
Investors Investors will be instructed by a Dealer Manager or any soliciting dealers retained by RCS on behalf of the Dealer Managers (the “Soliciting Dealers”) to remit the purchase price in the form of checks (hereinafter “instruments of payment”) payable to the order of, or funds wired in favor of, “UMB BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, ESCROW AGENT FOR AMERICAN REALTY CAPITAL PROPERTIES, INC.” Any checks made payable to a party other than the Escrow Agent shall be returned to the Dealer Manager or Soliciting Dealer that submitted the check. By 12:00 p.m. (EST) the next business day after receipt of instruments of payment from the Offering, the Company or a Dealer Manager shall furnish the Escrow Agent with a list of the Investors who have paid for the Securities showing the name, address, tax identification number, the amount of Securities subscribed for purchase and the amount paid. The information comprising the identity of Investors shall be provided to the Escrow Agent in substantially the format set forth in the “List of Investors” attached hereto as Exhibit B. When a Soliciting Dealer’s internal supervisory procedures are conducted at the site at which the subscription agreement and check were initially received by Soliciting Dealer from the subscriber, such Soliciting Dealer shall transmit the subscription agreement and check for the purchase of Securities to the Escrow Agent by the end of the next business day following receipt of the check and subscription agreement for the purchase of Securities. When, pursuant to such Soliciting Dealer’s internal supervisory procedures, such Soliciting Dealer’s final internal supervisory procedures are conducted at a different location (the “Final Review Office”), such Soliciting Dealer shall transmit the check and subscription agreement to the Final Review Office by the end of the next business day following Soliciting Dealer’s receipt of the subscription agreement and check for the purchase of Securities. The Final Review Office will, by the end of the next business day following its receipt of the subscription agreement and check for the purchase of Securities, forward both the subscription agreement and check to the Escrow Agent. If any subscription agreement for the purchase of Securities solicited by a Soliciting Dealer is rejected by a Dealer Manager or the Company, then the subscription agreement and check for the purchase of Securities will be returned to the rejected subscriber within ten (10) business days from the date of rejection. All Investor Funds deposited in the Escrow Account shall not be subject to any liens or charges by the Company or the Escrow Agent, or judgments or creditors’ claims against the Company, until and unless released to the Company as hereinafter provided. The Company understands and agrees that the Company shall not be entitled to any Investor Funds on deposit in the Escrow Account and no such funds shall become the property of the Company, or any other entity except as released to the Company pursuant to Section 3, hereto. The Escrow Agent will not use the information provided to it by the Company for any purpose other than to fulfill its obligations as Escrow Agent hereunder. The Company and the Escrow Agent will treat all Investor information as confidential. The Escrow Agent shall not be required to accept any Investor Funds which are not accompanied by the information on the List of Investors.
