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.
Purchase of Shares from the Fund (a) The Underwriter shall have the right to buy from the Fund the shares needed to fill unconditional orders for shares of the Fund placed with the Underwriter by investors or securities dealers, depository institutions or other financial intermediaries acting as agent for their customers. The price which the Underwriter shall pay for the shares so purchased from the Fund shall be the net asset value, determined as set forth in Section 3(d) hereof, used in determining the public offering price on which such orders are based. (b) The shares are to be resold by the Underwriter to investors at a public offering price, as set forth in Section 3(c) hereof, or to securities dealers, depository institutions or other financial intermediaries acting as agent for their customers having agreements with the Underwriter upon the terms and conditions set forth in Section 8 hereof. (c) The public offering price of the shares, i.e., the price per share at which the Underwriter or selected dealers or selected agents (each as defined in Section 8(a) below) may sell shares to the public, shall be the public offering price determined in accordance with the then current Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information of the Fund (the "Prospectus" and "Statement of Additional Information," respectively) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), relating to such shares, but not to exceed the net asset value at which the Underwriter is to purchase such shares, plus, in the case of Class A shares, a front-end sales charge equal to a specified percentage or percentages of the public offering price of the Class A shares as set forth in the Prospectus. Class A shares may be sold without such a sales charge to certain classes of persons as from time to time set forth in the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information. All payments to the Fund hereunder shall be made in the manner set forth in Section 3(f) hereof. (d) The net asset value of shares of the Fund shall be determined by the Fund, or any agent of the Fund, as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on each Fund business day in accordance with the method set forth in the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information and guidelines established by the Directors of the Fund. (e) The Fund reserves the right to suspend the offering of its shares at any time in the absolute discretion of its Directors. (f) The Fund, or any agent of the Fund designated in writing to the Underwriter by the Fund, shall be promptly advised by the Underwriter of all purchase orders for shares received by the Underwriter. Any order may be rejected by the Fund; provided, however, that the Fund will not arbitrarily or without reasonable cause refuse to accept or confirm orders for the purchase of shares. The Fund (or its agent) will confirm orders upon their receipt, will make appropriate book entries and upon receipt by the Fund (or its agent) of payment thereof, will deliver deposit receipts or certificates for such shares pursuant to the instructions of the Underwriter. Payment shall be made to the Fund in New York Clearing House funds. The Underwriter agrees to cause such payment and such instructions to be delivered promptly to the Fund (or its agent).
Purchase of Shares For the sum of $25,000 (the “Purchase Price”), which the Company acknowledges receiving in cash, the Company hereby issues the Shares to the Subscriber, and the Subscriber hereby purchases the Shares from the Company, subject to forfeiture, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Concurrently with the Subscriber’s execution of this Agreement, the Company shall, at its option, deliver to the Subscriber a certificate registered in the Subscriber’s name representing the shares (the “Original Certificate”), or effect such delivery in book-entry form.
Acknowledgment Regarding Investor’s Purchase of Shares The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Investor is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length purchaser with respect to the Registered Offering Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The Company further acknowledges that the Investor is not acting as a financial advisor or fiduciary of the Company (or in any similar capacity) with respect to the Registered Offering Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and any advice given by the Investor or any of its respective representatives or agents in connection with the Registered Offering Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby is merely incidental to the Investor’s purchase of the Securities, and is not being relied on by the Company. The Company further represents to the Investor that the Company’s decision to enter into the Registered Offering Transaction Documents has been based solely on the independent evaluation by the Company and its representatives.
Conditions to Purchase of Option Securities In the event that the Underwriters exercise their option provided in Section 2(b) hereof to purchase all or any portion of the Option Securities, the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein and the statements in any certificates furnished by the Company and any of its subsidiaries hereunder shall be true and correct as of each Date of Delivery and, at the relevant Date of Delivery, the Representatives shall have received:
Sale and Purchase of Shares Upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, on the Closing Date the Seller shall sell, assign, transfer, convey and deliver to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall purchase from the Seller, all of the Shares.
Agreement to Purchase and Sell Stock Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company agrees to sell to each of the Investors at the Closing (as defined below), and each of the Investors agrees to purchase from the Company at the Closing, the number of shares of the Company's Common Stock set forth opposite such Investor's name on the Schedule of Investors (collectively, the "Shares") at a price of $39.00 per share.
Purchase of Shares of Common Stock (a) Each Purchase Contract shall, unless an Early Settlement has occurred in accordance with Section 5.9, or a Merger Early Settlement has occurred in accordance with Section 5.10, obligate the Holder of the related Unit to purchase, and the Company to sell, on the Stock Purchase Date at a price equal to $50 (the "Purchase Price"), a number of newly issued shares of Common Stock equal to the Settlement Rate unless, on or prior to the Stock Purchase Date, there shall have occurred a Termination Event with respect to the Unit of which such Purchase Contract is a part. The "Settlement Rate" is equal to, (i) if the Applicable Market Value (as defined below) is greater than or equal to $21.08 (the "Threshold Appreciation Price"), 2.3719 shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contract, (ii) if the Applicable Market Value is less than the Threshold Appreciation Price, but is greater than $17.28, the number of shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contract equal to the Stated Amount of the related Unit divided by the Applicable Market Value, and (iii) if the Applicable Market Value is equal to or less than $17.28, 2.8935 shares of Common Stock per Purchase Contract, in each case subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5.6 (and in each case rounded upward or downward to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share). As provided in Section 5.12, no fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued upon settlement of Purchase Contracts. (b) No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued by the Company with respect to the payment of Contract Adjustment Payments on the Stock Purchase Date. In lieu of fractional shares otherwise issuable with respect to such payment of Contract Adjustment Payments, the Holder will be entitled to receive an amount in cash as provided in Section 5.12.
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
