Investment and Holding Company Status Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is (a) an "investment company" as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940 or (b) a "holding company" as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935.
No set-off by the Borrower All payments to be made by the Borrower under the Finance Documents shall be calculated and be made without (and free and clear of any deduction for) set-off or counterclaim.
Receipt and Holding of Assets The Fund will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Custodian and any Sub-Custodians all Securities and moneys of any Portfolio at any time during the period of this Agreement and shall specify the Portfolio to which the Securities and moneys are to be specifically allocated. The Custodian will not be responsible for such Securities and moneys until actually received by it or by a Sub-Custodian. The Fund may, from time to time in its sole discretion, provide the Custodian with Instructions as to the manner in which and in what amounts Securities, and moneys of a Portfolio are to be held on behalf of such Portfolio in the Book-Entry System or a Depository. Securities and moneys of a Portfolio held in the Book-Entry System or a Depository will be held in accounts which include only assets of Custodian that are held for its customers.
Contractual Settlement and Income The Custodian may, as a matter of bookkeeping convenience, credit the Account with the proceeds from the sale, redemption or other disposition of Securities or interest, dividends or other distributions payable on Securities prior to its actual receipt of final payment therefor. All such credits shall be conditional until the Custodian’s actual receipt of final payment and may be reversed by the Custodian to the extent that final payment is not received. Payment with respect to a transaction will not be “final” until the Custodian shall have received immediately available funds that under applicable local law, rule or practice are irreversible and not subject to any security interest, levy or other encumbrance, and that are specifically applicable to such transaction.
