PAYMENT OF DIVIDENDS OR DISTRIBUTIONS 1. Whenever the Fund shall determine to pay a dividend or distribution on Shares it shall furnish to Custodian Instructions or a Certificate setting forth with respect to the Series specified therein the date of the declaration of such dividend or distribution, the total amount payable, and the payment date.
Dividends; Capital Stock Declare or pay, directly or indirectly, any dividends or make any other distribution, or payment, whether in cash, property, securities or a combination thereof, with respect to (whether by reduction of capital or otherwise) any shares of capital stock (or any options, warrants, rights or other equity securities or agreements relating to any capital stock) of the Borrower, or set apart any sum for the aforesaid purposes (collectively, “Restricted Payments”), except that:
Payment of Dividends From and after the date of the issuance (the “Issuance Date”) of any shares of Series C Preferred Stock, the holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall receive with respect to each share of Series C Preferred Stock, out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends, a cumulative dividend (the “Dividend Payment”) in an amount equal to the greater of (x) dividends at a rate of thirteen percent (13%) per annum based on the Liquidation Preference Amount (as defined in Section 4 hereof), and (y) dividends that would have accrued with respect to such share of Series C Preferred Stock during the applicable Dividend Period (as defined below) if the holder of such share had converted such share into Common Stock immediately prior to the record date of any dividend declared on the Common Stock in such Dividend Period. Any Dividend Payment referred to in clause (y) above shall be deemed to have accrued with respect to a share of Series C Preferred Stock as of the last day of the applicable Dividend Period. Dividend Payments on a share of Series C Preferred Stock shall accrue and shall be cumulative whether or not declared from the date of issue of such share of Series C Preferred Stock and shall be paid by the Company quarterly in arrears (to the extent funds are legally available therefor) on the first of July, October, January and April (each such quarterly period, a “Dividend Period”) in cash or, at the option of a holder of the Series C Preferred Stock, in shares of Common Stock, in an amount equal to the quotient of (i) the Dividend Payment divided by (ii) the Conversion Price (as defined in Section 5(c) hereof). The Dividend Payment shall accrue from day to day, whether or not earned or declared, and shall be cumulative. In the case of shares of Series C Preferred Stock outstanding for less than a full year, dividends shall be pro rated based on the portion of each year during which such shares are outstanding. The Company shall be under no obligation to pay any such dividends to the extent that funds are not legally available therefor. Dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock are prior and in preference to any declaration or payment of any dividend or distribution (as defined below) on any shares of Junior Stock.
Stock Dividends and Distributions In case the Company shall pay a dividend in, or make a distribution of, shares of Common Stock or of the Company's capital stock convertible into Common Stock, the Exercise Price shall forthwith be proportionately decreased. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 8.2 shall be made as of the record date for the subject stock dividend or distribution.
Dividends and Distribution (A) Subject to the prior and superior rights of the holders of any shares of any class or series of stock of the Corporation ranking prior and superior to the shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock with respect to dividends, the holders of shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, in preference to the holders of shares of any class or series of stock of the Corporation ranking junior to the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock in respect thereof, shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available for the purpose, quarterly dividends payable in cash on the last day of March, June, September and December, in each year (each such date being referred to herein as a "Quarterly Dividend Payment Date"), commencing on the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date after the first issuance of a share or fraction of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, in an amount per share (rounded to the nearest cent) equal to the greater of (a) $10 or (b) the Adjustment Number (as defined below) times the aggregate per share amount of all cash dividends, and the Adjustment Number times the aggregate per share amount (payable in kind) of all non-cash dividends or other distributions other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise), declared on the Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Corporation (the "Common Stock") since the immediately preceding Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, or, with respect to the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, since the first issuance of any share or fraction of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock. The "
Dividends and Voting Participant is entitled to (i) receive all dividends, payable in stock, in cash or in kind, or other distributions, declared on or with respect to any Restricted Shares as of a record date that occurs on or after the Date of Grant hereunder and before any transfer or forfeiture of the Restricted Shares by Participant, provided that any such dividends paid in cash are to be held in escrow by the Company and, such cash dividends and distributions are to be subject to the same rights, restrictions on transfer and conditions regarding vesting and forfeiture as the Restricted Shares with respect to which such dividends or distributions are paid at the time of payment, and (ii) exercise all voting rights with respect to the Restricted Shares, if the record date for the exercise of such voting rights occurs on or after the Date of Grant hereunder and prior to any transfer or forfeiture of such Restricted Shares. In the event of forfeiture by Participant of any or all of the Restricted Shares or any of the equity securities distributed to Participant with respect thereto, Participant shall forfeit all cash dividends held in escrow and relating to the underlying forfeited Restricted Shares and must return to the Company any distributions previously paid to Participant with respect to such Restricted Shares.
Dividends and Distributions (A) Subject to the rights of the holders of any shares of any series of Preferred Stock (or any similar stock) ranking prior and superior to the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to dividends, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, in preference to the holders of Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of the Corporation, and of any other junior stock, shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available for the purpose, quarterly dividends payable in cash on the first day of March, June, September and December in each year (each such date being referred to herein as a "Quarterly Dividend Payment Date"), commencing on the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date after the first issuance of a share or fraction of a share of Series A Preferred Stock, in an amount per share (rounded to the nearest cent) equal to the greater of (a) $1 or (b) subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, 100 times the aggregate per share amount of all cash dividends, and 100 times the aggregate per share amount (payable in kind) of all non-cash dividends or other distributions, other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise), declared on the Common Stock since the immediately preceding Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or, with respect to the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, since the first issuance of any share or fraction of a share of Series A Preferred Stock. In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the amount to which holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.
Other Dividends and Distributions Subject to the provisions of this Section 7(c), if Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date, make or declare, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or any other distribution payable in securities of Company (other than a dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock, Options or Convertible Securities in respect of outstanding shares of Common Stock), cash or other property, then, and in each such event, provision shall be made so that the Holder shall receive upon exercise of the Warrant, in addition to the number of Warrant Shares receivable thereupon, the kind and amount of securities of Company, cash or other property which the Holder would have been entitled to receive had the Warrant been exercised in full into Warrant Shares on the date of such event and had the Holder thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the Exercise Date (as hereinafter defined), retained such securities, cash or other property receivable by them as aforesaid during such period, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this Section 7 with respect to the rights of the Holder; provided, that no such provision shall be made if the Holder receives, simultaneously with the distribution to the holders of Common Stock, a dividend or other distribution of such securities, cash or other property in an amount equal to the amount of such securities, cash or other property as the Holder would have received if the Warrant had been exercised in full into Warrant Shares on the date of such event.
Certain Dividends and Distributions If the Issuer, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall:
Dividends So long as any shares of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock will be outstanding, the holders of the Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive cumulative preferential dividends accruing at the LIBOR Rate on the value of $100.00 per share, payable quarterly on the 1st day of March, June, September and December of each year, beginning December 1, 1997 (each date being called a "Dividend Payment Date"), the dividends to be cumulative and payable as allowed by the Nevada Business Corporation Act, Chapter 78, Nevada Revised Statutes, with respect to the quarterly dividend period (or portion of it) ending on the day preceding the respective Dividend Payment Date, fixed for that purpose by the Board in advance of payment of each particular dividend. The LIBOR Rate shall mean the rate (rounded, if necessary, to the next higher 1/100 of 1%) for deposits in United States Dollars for a maturity of three months which appears on the Telerate Page 3750 at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time representing the offered side of dollar deposits in the London market two (2) London business days prior to the effective date of the applicable LIBOR Rate. The LIBOR Rate shall be presumed to be the three months London Interbank Offered Rates as shown in the Wall Street Journal under "Money Rates" as long as such rates are published. The LIBOR Rate will be fixed on the Original Issue Date and thereafter be changed at every Dividend Payment Date to be effective until the next Dividend Payment Date. The "Original Issue Date" means the first date on which the Corporation will issue any shares of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock. Dividends on the Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock shall be cumulative from the Original Issue Date (whether or not declared and whether or not in any dividend period or dividend periods there will be net profits or net assets of the Corporation legally available for the payment of those dividends). So long as any shares of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock shall remain outstanding, the Corporation may not declare or pay any dividend, make a distribution, or purchase, acquire, redeem, or set aside or make monies available for a sinking fund for the purchase or redemption of, any shares of stock of the Corporation ranking junior to the Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock with respect to the payment of dividends or the distribution of assets on liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation including Common Stock, par value $.01, of the Corporation ("junior stock") (other than as a result of a reclassification of junior stock into another class of junior stock, or the exchange or conversion of one junior stock for or into another junior stock) unless (i) all dividends in respect of the Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock for all past dividend periods have been paid and such dividends for the current dividend period have been paid or declared and duly provided for, and (ii) all amounts in respect of the mandatory redemption of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock pursuant to the terms of paragraph 5 below have been paid for all prior applicable periods and all amounts in respect of such mandatory redemption for the current applicable period have been paid or duly provided for. Subject to the foregoing, and not otherwise, the dividends (payable in cash, stock or otherwise) as may be determined by the Board may be declared and paid on any junior stock from time to time out of any funds legally available, and the Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock will not be entitled to participate in any such dividends, whether payable in cash, stock or otherwise. Liquidation Rights. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock then outstanding are entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its shareholders, whether such assets are capital, surplus or earnings, before any payment or declaration and setting apart for payment of any amount will be made in respect of any shares of any junior stock with respect to the payment of dividends or distribution of assets on liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, an amount equal to $100 per share plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends (including a prorated quarterly dividend from the last Dividend Payment Date to the date of such payment) in respect of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up consummated. If upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the assets to be distributed among the holders of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit the payment to the shareholders of the full preferential amounts aforesaid, then the entire assets of the Corporation to be distributed shall be distributed ratably among the holders of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock based on the full preferential amounts for the number of shares of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock. A consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or corporations in which the stockholders of the Corporation receive solely capital stock of the acquiring or surviving corporation (or of the direct or indirect parent corporation of the acquiring corporation), except for cash in lieu of fractional shares, will not be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Corporation as those terms are used in this Certificate. Mandatory Redemption. The Corporation will, at the redemption price equal to $100 per share plus an amount, payable in cash, equal to the sum of all accumulated and unpaid dividends per share (including a prorated quarterly dividend from the last Dividend Payment Date to the applicable Redemption Date) (the "Redemption Price"), redeem from any source of funds legally available therefor, the amount of shares of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock outstanding on the date set forth on the Redemption Schedule attached to this Certificate. Redemption Date shall be the date on which any shares of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock are redeemed by the Corporation. This Certificate shall be notice of this mandatory redemption on the dates specified on the Redemption Schedule, and any further notice is waived by acceptance of this Certificate. If the Corporation's records show there is more than one holder of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock, the Corporation will effect the redemption pro rata according to the number of shares held by each holder of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock shown on the books of the Corporation. On or before the date fixed for redemption, each holder of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock will surrender the certificate or certificates representing the shares of Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock to the Corporation and the Redemption Price for the shares will be paid in cash on the Redemption Date to the person whose name appears on the certificate or certificates as the owner, and each surrendered certificate will be canceled and retired. In the event that less than all of the shares represented by any certificate are redeemed, a new certificate will be issued representing the unredeemed shares. Unless the Corporation defaults in the payment in full of the Redemption Price, dividends on the Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock called for redemption will cease to accumulate on the Redemption Date, and all rights of the holders of the shares redeemed will cease to have any further rights with respect to the shares on the Redemption Date, other than to receive the Redemption Price.
