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.
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.
Conversion of Company Shares As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any Company Share or Acquiror Share, each Company Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (a) shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 3.2 and (b) Dissenting Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive in cash from Acquiror, without interest, an amount equal to $16.00 (the "Merger Consideration").
Repurchase of Shares If any share is repurchased by any of the Funds or is tendered thereto for redemption within seven business days after confirmation by us of the original purchase order from you for such security, you shall forthwith refund to us the full compensation paid to you on the original sale.
Company Shares If the managing underwriter has not limited the number of Registrable Securities to be underwritten, the Company may include securities for its own account or for the account of others in such registration if the managing underwriter so agrees and if the number of Registrable Securities which would otherwise have been included in such registration and underwriting will not thereby be limited.
Register of Shares and Share Certificates A register shall be kept at the principal office of the Trust or an office of one or more transfer agents which shall contain the names and addresses of the Shareholders of each Series and Class, the number of Shares of that Series and Class thereof held by them respectively and a record of all transfers thereof. As to Shares for which no certificate has been issued, such register shall be conclusive as to who are the holders of the Shares and who shall be entitled to receive dividends or other distributions or otherwise to exercise or enjoy the rights of Shareholders. No Shareholder shall be entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution, nor to have notice given to him as herein or in the By-laws provided, until he has given his address to the transfer agent or such other officer or agent of the Trust as shall keep the said register for entry thereon. The Trustees shall have no obligation to, but in their discretion may, authorize the issuance of share certificates and promulgate appropriate rules and regulations as to their use. If one or more share certificates are issued, whether in the name of a Shareholder or a nominee, such certificate or certificates shall constitute evidence of ownership of the Shares evidenced thereby for all purposes, including transfer, assignment or sale of such Shares, subject to such limitations as the Trustees may, in their discretion, prescribe.
New Shares Stockholder agrees that any shares of Company Capital Stock that Stockholder purchases or with respect to which Stockholder otherwise acquires beneficial ownership after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Expiration Date (“New Shares”) shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement to the same extent as if they constituted Shares.
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.

(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).
