Redemption Procedures (i) Notice of any redemption of Partnership Preferred Securities (a "Redemption Notice") will be given by the Partnership by mail to each Holder of Partnership Preferred Securities to be redeemed not fewer than 30 nor more than 60 days before the date fixed for redemption. For purposes of the calculation of the date of redemption and the dates on which notices are given pursuant to this Section 6.2(e)(i), a Redemption Notice shall be deemed to be given on the day such notice is first mailed, by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to Holders of Partnership Preferred Securities. Each Redemption Notice shall be addressed to the Holders of Partnership Preferred Securities at the address of each such Holder appearing in the books and records of the Partnership. No defect in the Redemption Notice or in the mailing thereof with respect to any Holder shall affect the validity of the redemption proceedings with respect to any other Holder.
(ii) In the event that fewer than all the outstanding Partnership Preferred Securities are to be redeemed, the Partnership Preferred Securities to be redeemed shall be redeemed pro rata provided, that, in the event Partnership Preferred Securities are held in book-entry only form by DTC or its nominee (or any successor Clearing Agency or its nominee), DTC will reduce, in accordance with DTC's customary procedures, the amount of the interest of each Clearing Agency Participant in the Partnership Preferred Securities to be redeemed; provided, that if, as a result of such pro rata redemption, Holders would hold fractional interests in the Partnership Preferred Securities, the General Partner may adjust the amount of the interest of each Holder to be redeemed to avoid such fractional interests.
(iii) If the Partnership gives a Redemption Notice (which notice will be irrevocable), then by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the redemption date, the Partnership (A) if the Partnership Preferred Securities are in book-entry only form with DTC, will deposit irrevocably with DTC funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price and will give DTC irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price in respect of the Partnership Preferred Securities held through DTC in global form or (B) if the Partnership Preferred Securities are held in certificated form, will deposit with the Paying Agent, funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price of the amount of any such Partnership Preferred Securities and will give to the Paying Agent irrevocable instructions and authority to pay such amounts to the Holders of Partnership Preferred Securities, upon surrender of their certificates, by check, mailed to the address of the relevant Holder appearing on the books and records of the Partnership on the redemption date; provided, however, that for so long as the Trust or the Property Trustee of the Trust shall hold the Partnership Preferred Securities, payment of cash shall be made by wire in same day funds to the Holder by 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the redemption date. For these purposes, the applicable Redemption Price shall not include Distributions which are being paid to Holders who were Holders on a relevant record date. Upon satisfaction of the foregoing conditions, then immediately prior to the close of business on the date of such deposit or payment, all rights of Holders of such Partnership Preferred Securities so called for redemption will cease, except the right of the Holders to receive the Redemption Price, but without interest on such Redemption Price, and from and after the date fixed for redemption, such Partnership Preferred Securities will not accumulate Distributions or bear interest. In the event that any date fixed for redemption of Partnership Preferred Securities is not a Business Day, then payment of the Redemption Price payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding Business Day (and without any interest in respect of any such delay), except that, if such Business Day falls in the next calendar year, such payment will be made on the immediately preceding Business Day in each case, with the same force and effect as if made on such date fixed for redemption. In the event that payment of the Redemption Price is improperly withheld or refused and not paid by either the Partnership or the Company pursuant to the Partnership Guarantee, Distributions on the Partnership Preferred Securities called for Redemption will continue to accumulate, to the extent that payment of such interest is legally available, from the original redemption date until the Redemption Price is actually paid. The Partnership shall not be required to register or cause to be registered the transfer of any Partnership Preferred Securities which have been called for redemption.
Purchase and Redemption Procedures (a) The Fund hereby appoints the Company as an agent of the Fund for the limited purpose of receiving purchase and redemption requests on behalf of the Account (but not with respect to any Fund Shares that may be held in the general account of the Company) for Shares of those Designated Portfolios made available hereunder, based on allocations of amounts to the Account or subaccounts thereof under the Contracts and other transactions relating to the Contracts or the Account. Receipt of any such request (or relevant transactional information therefore) on any day the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and on which the Fund calculates its net asset value pursuant to the rules of the SEC (a "Business Day") by the Company as such limited agent of the Fund prior to the time that the Fund calculates its net asset value as described from time to time in the Fund Prospectus (which as of the date of execution of this Agreement is 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) shall constitute receipt by the Fund on that same Business Day, provided that the Fund receives notice of such request by 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time on the next following Business Day.
(b) The Company shall pay for Shares of each Designated Portfolio on the same day that it notifies the Fund of a purchase request for such Shares. Payment for Designated Portfolio Shares shall be made in federal funds transmitted to the Fund by wire to be received by the Fund by 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the same Business Day the Fund is notified of the purchase request for Designated Portfolio Shares pursuant to Section 1.3(a) (unless the Fund determines and so advises the Company that sufficient proceeds are available from redemption of Shares of other Designated Portfolios effected pursuant to redemption requests tendered by the Company on behalf of the Account). If federal funds are not received on time, such funds will be invested, and Designated Portfolio Shares purchased thereby will be issued, as soon as practicable and the Company shall promptly, upon the Fund's request, reimburse the Fund for any charges, costs, fees, interest or other expenses incurred by the Fund in connection with any advances to, or borrowing or overdrafts by, the Fund, or any similar expenses incurred by the Fund, as a result of portfolio transactions effected by the Fund based upon such purchase request. Upon receipt of federal funds so wired, such funds shall cease to be the responsibility of the Company and shall become the responsibility of the Fund.
(c) The Fund will redeem Designated Portfolio Shares requested on behalf of the Account, and make payment therefore, in accordance with the provisions of the then current registration statement of the Fund. Payment for Designated Portfolio Shares redeemed by the Account or the Company normally shall be made in federal funds transmitted by wire to the Company or any other designated person on the same Business Day that the Fund is properly notified of the redemption order for such Shares pursuant to Section 1.3(a) (unless redemption proceeds are to be applied to the purchase of Shares of other Designated Portfolios in accordance with Section 1.3(b) of this Agreement). The Fund shall not bear any responsibility whatsoever for the proper disbursement or crediting of redemption proceeds by the Company, the Company alone shall be responsible for such action.
(d) Any purchase or redemption request for Designated Portfolio Shares held or to be held in the Company's general account shall be effected at the net asset value per share next determined after the Fund's receipt of such request, provided that, in the case of a purchase request, payment for Fund Shares so requested is received by the Fund in federal funds prior to close of business for determination of such value, as defined from time to time in the Fund Prospectus.
Redemption Procedure The payment of cash or issuance of Common Stock, as applicable, pursuant to an Optional Redemption or a Periodic Redemption shall be payable on the Optional Redemption Date or Periodic Redemption Date, as applicable. If any portion of the payment pursuant to an Optional Redemption or Periodic Redemption shall not be paid by the Company by the applicable due date, interest shall accrue thereon at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law until such amount is paid in full. Notwithstanding anything herein contained to the contrary, if any portion of the Optional Redemption Amount or Periodic Redemption Amount remains unpaid after such date, the Holder may elect, by written notice to the Company given at any time thereafter, to invalidate such Optional Redemption or Periodic Redemption, ab initio, and, with respect to the Company’s failure to honor the Optional Redemption, the Company shall have no further right to exercise such Optional Redemption. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, the Company’s determination to redeem in cash or its elections under Section 6(b) shall be applied ratably among the Holders of Debentures. The Holder may elect to convert the outstanding principal amount of the Debenture pursuant to Section 4 prior to actual payment in cash for any redemption under this Section 6 by the delivery of a Notice of Conversion to the Company.
Repurchase Procedures The Company may elect to exercise the right to purchase all or any portion of the Executive Units pursuant to the Repurchase Option by delivering written notice (the "Repurchase Notice") to the holder or holders of Executive Units within 180 days after Executive's Termination Date. The Repurchase Notice will set forth the number of Executive Units to be acquired from such holder(s), the aggregate consideration to be paid for such Units and the time and place for the closing of the transaction. The Company may elect to purchase all or any portion of the Unvested Units without or before purchasing any Vested Units. If any of the Executive Units are held by Permitted Transferees of Executive, the Company shall purchase the units elected to be purchased from such holder(s) of Executive Units pro rata according to the number of Executive Units held by such holder(s) at the time of delivery of such Repurchase Notice (determined as nearly as practicable to the nearest unit). If both Unvested Units and Vested Units are to be purchased by the Company and Executive Units are held by Permitted Transferees of Executive, the number of Unvested Units and Vested Units to be purchased will be allocated among such holders pro rata according to the total number of Executive Units to be purchased from such person.
Notice of Optional Redemption; Selection of Notes (a) In case the Company exercises its Optional Redemption right to redeem all or, as the case may be, any part of the Notes pursuant to Section 16.01, it shall fix a date for redemption (each, a “Redemption Date”) and it or, at its written request received by the Trustee not less than five Business Days prior to the Redemption Notice Date (or such shorter period of time as may be acceptable to the Trustee), the Trustee, in the name of and at the expense of the Company, shall deliver or cause to be delivered a written notice of such Optional Redemption (a “Notice of Redemption”) (in all cases, the text of such Notice of Redemption shall be prepared by the Company) not less than 55 nor more than 70 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes so to be redeemed in whole or in part; provided, however, that, if the Company shall give such notice, it shall also give written notice of the Redemption Date to the Trustee, the Conversion Agent and the Paying Agent. In the case of any Optional Redemption in part, Holders of Notes not called for Optional Redemption will not be entitled to an increased Conversion Rate for such Notes in accordance with Section 14.03 and Section 16.02(c). The Redemption Date must be a Business Day.
(b) The Notice of Redemption, if delivered in the manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such Notice of Redemption or any defect in the Notice of Redemption to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note.
(c) Each Notice of Redemption shall specify:
(i) the Redemption Date (which must be a Business Day);
(ii) the Redemption Price;
(iii) that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Note to be redeemed, and that interest thereon, if any, shall cease to accrue on and after the Redemption Date;
(iv) the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price;
(v) that Holders may surrender their Notes for conversion at any time prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date;
(vi) the procedures a converting Holder must follow to convert its Notes and the forms and amounts of consideration payable by the Company upon conversion;
(vii) the Conversion Rate and, if applicable, the number of Additional Shares added to the Conversion Rate in accordance with Section 14.03;
(viii) the CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers, if any, assigned to such Notes; and
(ix) in case any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed and on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Note, a new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof shall be issued, which principal amount must be $1,000 or a multiple thereof. A Notice of Redemption shall be irrevocable.
(d) If fewer than all of the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed and the Notes to be redeemed are Global Notes, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Depositary in accordance with the applicable rules and procedures of the Depositary. If fewer than all of the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed and the Notes to be redeemed are not Global Notes, the Trustee shall select the Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed (in principal amounts of $1,000 or multiples thereof) by lot, on a pro rata basis or by another method the Trustee considers to be fair and appropriate. If any Note selected for partial redemption is submitted for conversion in part after such selection, the portion of the Note submitted for conversion shall be deemed (so far as may be possible) to be the portion selected for redemption, subject, in the case of Notes represented by a Global Note, to the Depositary’s applicable procedures. If fewer than all of the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed and the Holder of any Note (or any owner of a beneficial interest in any Global Note) is reasonably not able to determine, before the close of business on the 55th scheduled Trading Day immediately before the relevant Redemption Date, whether such Note or beneficial interest, as applicable, is to be redeemed pursuant to such redemption, then such Holder or owner, as applicable, will be entitled to convert such Note or beneficial interest, as applicable, at any time before the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day prior to such Redemption Date, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price pursuant to Section 14.01(b)(v), in which case such Holder or owner, as applicable, will be entitled to convert such Note or beneficial interest, as applicable, until the Redemption Price has been paid or duly provided for, and each such conversion will be deemed to be of a Note called for redemption. The Trustee shall not be obligated to make any determination in connection with the foregoing.
Final Redemption Unless previously redeemed, or purchased and cancelled, the Bonds will be redeemed at their principal amount on the Interest Payment Date falling on, or nearest to, June 26, 2017. The Bonds may not be redeemed at the option of the Issuer other than in accordance with this Condition.
Procedures for Redemption (i) Notice of redemption will be (i) faxed, and (ii) mailed by the Partnership, by certified mail, postage prepaid, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date, addressed to the respective holders of record of the Series K Preferred Units at their respective addresses as they appear on the records of the Partnership. No failure to give or defect in such notice shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Series K Preferred Units except as to the holder to whom such notice was defective or not given. In addition to any information required by law, each such notice shall state: (a) the redemption date, (b) the Redemption Price, (c) the aggregate number of Series K Preferred Units to be redeemed and if fewer than all of the outstanding Series K Preferred Units are to be redeemed, the number of Series K Preferred Units to be redeemed held by such holder, which number shall equal such holder's pro rata share (based on the percentage of the aggregate number of outstanding Series K Preferred Units that the total number of Series K Preferred Units held by such holder represents) of the aggregate number of Series K Preferred Units to be redeemed, (d) the place or places where such Series K Preferred Units are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, (e) that distributions on the Series K Preferred Units to be redeemed will cease to accumulate on such redemption date and (f) that payment of the Redemption Price will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Series K Preferred Units.
(ii) If the Partnership gives a notice of redemption in respect of Series K Preferred Units (which notice will be irrevocable) then, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the redemption date, the Partnership will deposit irrevocably in trust for the benefit of the Series K Preferred Units being redeemed funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price and will give irrevocable instructions and authority to pay such Redemption Price to the holders of the Series K Preferred Units upon surrender of the Series K Preferred Units by such holders at the place designated in the notice of redemption. On and after the date of redemption, distributions will cease to accumulate on the Series K Preferred Units or portions thereof called for redemption, unless the Partnership defaults in the payment thereof. If any date fixed for redemption of Series K Preferred Units is not a Business Day, then payment of the Redemption Price payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) except that, if such Business Day falls in the next calendar year, such payment will be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date fixed for redemption. If payment of the Redemption Price is improperly withheld or refused and not paid by the Partnership, distributions on such Series K Preferred Units will continue to accumulate from the original redemption date to the date of payment, in which case the actual payment date will be considered the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the applicable Redemption Price.
Processing Redemption Requests You shall not purchase any share of any of the Funds from a record holder at a price lower than the net asset value next determined by or for the Funds’ shares. You shall, however, be permitted to sell any shares for the account of a shareholder of the Funds at the net asset value currently quoted by or for the Funds’ shares, and may charge a fair service fee for handling the transaction provided you disclose the fee to the record owner.
Payment Upon Redemption (a) If the giving of notice of redemption shall have been completed as above provided, the Securities or portions of Securities of the series to be redeemed specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the date and at the place stated in such notice at the applicable redemption price, together with interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption and interest on such Securities or portions of Securities shall cease to accrue on and after the date fixed for redemption, unless the Company shall default in the payment of such redemption price and accrued interest with respect to any such Security or portion thereof. On presentation and surrender of such Securities on or after the date fixed for redemption at the place of payment specified in the notice, said Securities shall be paid and redeemed at the applicable redemption price for such series, together with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption (but if the date fixed for redemption is an interest payment date, the interest installment payable on such date shall be payable to the registered holder at the close of business on the applicable record date pursuant to Section 2.03).
(b) Upon presentation of any Security of such series that is to be redeemed in part only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and the office or agency where the Security is presented shall deliver to the holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Security of the same series of authorized denominations in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Security so presented.
