Restrictive Legends and Stop Transfer Orders (a) The book entry or certificate representing the Restricted Shares may, at the Committee’s discretion, contain a notation or bear the following legend (as well as any notations or legends required by applicable state and federal corporate and securities laws) noting the existence of the restrictions and the Company’s rights to reacquire the Restricted Shares set forth in this Agreement: “THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS [BOOK ENTRY] [CERTIFICATE] MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF A RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE SHAREHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.” (b) The Employee agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records. (c) The Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any Restricted Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or (ii) to treat as owner of the Restricted Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom the Restricted Shares shall have been so transferred.
General Transfer Restrictions The right of any Unitholder to Transfer any Shares held by it is subject to the restrictions set forth below. (a) Each Unitholder acknowledges that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be Transferred except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Each Unitholder covenants that the Shares will only be disposed of pursuant to an effective registration statement under, and in compliance with the requirements of, the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in compliance with any applicable state and foreign securities laws. In connection with any Transfer of the Shares other than a Transfer (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement, (ii) to the Company or (iii) pursuant to Rule 144, the Company may require the Unitholder to provide to the Company an opinion of counsel selected by the Unitholder and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the form and substance of which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such Transfer does not require registration under the Securities Act. (b) Each Unitholder agrees to the affixing, so long as is required by this Section 2.1, of the following legend on any certificate or book-entry position evidencing any of the Shares: Certificates or book-entry positions evidencing the Shares shall not be required to contain such legend or any other legend (i) following any sale of such Shares pursuant to an effective registration statement (including the Registration Statement described in Section 3.1) covering the resale of the Shares, (ii) following any sale of such Shares pursuant to Rule 144 or if the Shares are transferrable by a person who is not an Affiliate of the Company or the applicable Unitholder pursuant to Rule 144 without any volume or manner of sale restrictions thereunder, (iii) if Holder is not an Affiliate of the Company, six (6) months following the Closing, provided, however, that in the case of (i), (ii) and (iii), above, the Unitholder provides the Company with customary legal representation letters reasonably acceptable to the Company or (iv) if the Unitholder provides the Company with a legal opinion reasonably acceptable to the Company to the effect that the legend is not required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act. Whenever such restrictions shall cease and terminate as to any Shares, the Holder of such securities shall be entitled to receive from the Company upon a written request in writing, without expense, new securities of like tenor not bearing the legend set forth herein. (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, following registration of the Shares, each Unitholder agrees not to sell any Shares issued to such Unitholder if the sales of such shares would, when combined with the sale of any other Shares by such Unitholder in any one (1) day period, exceed five percent (5%) of the average daily trading volume of the Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange over the five (5) trading days immediately preceding such date of sale; provided, however, that if the aggregate number of Shares represents less than fifty percent (50%) of the average daily trading volume of the Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange over the five (5) trading days preceding the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (the “Average Volume”), such resale volume limitations shall not apply. If the aggregate number of Shares issued to a Unitholder represents more than the Average Volume, the Company may place such legends or stock transfer restrictions on the Shares as shall be appropriate for enforcing the provisions of this Section 2(c).
Conditions to Permitted Transfers A Transfer shall not be treated as a Permitted Transfer under Section 9.2 hereof unless and until the following conditions are satisfied: (a) The transferor and transferee shall execute and deliver to the Company such documents and instruments of conveyance as may be necessary or appropriate in the opinion of counsel to the Company to effect such Transfer. The Company shall be reimbursed by the transferor and/or transferee for all costs and expenses that it reasonably incurs in connection with such Transfer. (b) The transferor and transferee shall furnish the Company with the transferee's taxpayer identification number, sufficient information to determine the transferee's initial tax basis in the Interest transferred, and any other information reasonably necessary to permit the Company to file all required federal and state tax returns and other legally required information statements or returns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to make any distribution otherwise provided for in this Agreement with respect to any transferred Interest until it has received such information. (c) The transferee of Interests (other than, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) below, a transferee that was a Member prior to the Transfer) shall, by written instrument in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the nontransferring Member (and, in the case of clause (iii) below, the transferor Member), (i) make representations and warranties to the nontransferring Member equivalent to those set forth in Section 6, (ii) accept and adopt the terms and provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, this Section 9 and Section 11, and (iii) assume the obligations of the transferor Member under this Agreement with respect to the transferred Interest. (d) The transferor shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder.
General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon the Company's order or at the Registrar's request.
No Other Legend or Stock Transfer Restrictions No legend other than the one specified in Section 9.1 has been or shall be placed on the share certificates representing the Registrable Securities and no instructions or "stop transfer orders," "stock transfer restrictions," or other restrictions have been or shall be given to the Company's transfer agent with respect thereto other than as expressly set forth in this Article IX.
Lock-up; Transfer Restrictions (a) The Sponsor and the Insiders agree that they shall not Transfer any Founder Shares (the “Founder Shares Lock-up”) until the earliest of (A) one year after the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination and (B) the date following the completion of an initial Business Combination on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property (the “Founder Shares Lock-up Period”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, subsequent to a Business Combination, the closing price of the Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30- trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Company’s initial Business Combination, the Founder Shares shall be released from the Founder Shares Lock-up. (b) Subject to the provisions set forth in paragraph 5(c), the Sponsor and Insiders agree that they shall not effectuate any Transfer of Private Placement Warrants or the Ordinary Shares underlying such Private Placement Warrants until 30 days after the completion of an initial Business Combination. (c) Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in paragraphs 5(a) and (b), Transfers of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants or Ordinary Shares underlying the Private Placement Warrants are permitted (a) to the Company’s officers or directors, any affiliates or family member of any of the Company’s officers or directors, any members or partners of the Sponsor or their affiliates, any affiliates of the Sponsor, or any employees of such affiliates; (b) in the case of an individual, by gift to a member of one of the individual’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of the individual’s immediate family, an affiliate of such person or to a charitable organization; (c) in the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the individual; (d) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (e) by private sales or transfers made in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination at prices no greater than the price at which the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants or Ordinary Shares, as applicable, were originally purchased; (f) by virtue of the Sponsor’s organizational documents upon liquidation or dissolution of the Sponsor; (g) to the Company for no value for cancellation in connection with the consummation of its initial Business Combination, (h) in the event of the Company’s liquidation prior to the completion of its initial Business Combination; or (i) in the event of completion of a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property subsequent to the completion of an initial Business Combination; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (a) through (f) these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement agreeing to be bound by these transfer restrictions. (d) During the period commencing on the effective date of the Underwriting Agreement and ending 180 days after such date, the Sponsor and each Insider shall not, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, Transfer any Units, Ordinary Shares, Warrants or any other securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, Ordinary Shares held by it, her or him, as applicable, subject to certain exceptions enumerated in Section [6(h)] of the Underwriting Agreement.
Additional Transfer Restrictions (a) No transfer of the Residual Certificates shall be made unless the Servicer has consented in writing to such transfer. No Residual Certificate may be transferred to a Disqualified Organization. The Servicer will not consent to any proposed transfer (i) to any investor that it knows is a Disqualified Organization or (ii) if the transfer involves less than an entire interest in a Residual Certificate unless (A) the interest transferred is an undivided interest or (B) the transferor or the transferee provides the Servicer with an Opinion of Counsel obtained at its own expense to the effect that the transfer will not jeopardize the REMIC status of any related REMIC. The Servicer's consent to any transfer is further conditioned the Servicer's receipt from the proposed transferee of (x) a Residual Transferee Agreement, (y) a Benefit Plan Affidavit, and (z) either (A) if the transferee is a Non-U.S. Person, an affidavit of the proposed transferee in substantially the form attached as Exhibit 8-A to Exhibit 8 to the Standard Terms and a certificate of the transferor stating whether the Class R Certificate has "tax avoidance potential" as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-3(a)(2), or (B) if the transferee is a U.S. Person, an affidavit in substantially the form attached as Exhibit 8-B to Exhibit 8 to the Standard Terms. In addition, if a proposed transfer involves a Private Certificate, (1) the Servicer or the Trustee shall require that the transferor and transferee certify as to the factual basis for the registration or qualification exemption(s) relied upon to exempt the transfer from registration under the Act and all applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws, and (2) if the transfer is to be made within three years after the acquisition thereof by a non-Affiliate of the Company from the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, the Servicer or the Trustee also may require an Opinion of Counsel that such transfer may be made without registration or qualification under the Act and applicable state securities laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be obtained at the expense of the Company, the Trustee or the Servicer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel shall be required in connection with the initial transfer of the Residual Certificates or their transfer by a broker or dealer, if such broker or dealer was the initial transferee. Notwithstanding the fulfillment of the prerequisites described above, the Servicer may withhold its consent to, or the Trustee may refuse to recognize, a transfer of a Residual Certificate, but only to the extent necessary to avoid a risk of disqualification of a related REMIC as a REMIC or the imposition of a tax upon any such REMIC. Any attempted transfer in violation of the foregoing restrictions shall be null and void and shall not be recognized by the Trustee. (b) If a tax or a reporting cost is borne by a related REMIC as a result of the transfer of the Residual Certificates or any beneficial interest therein, in violation of the restrictions referenced herein, the Transferor shall pay such tax or cost and, if such tax or costs are not so paid, the Trustee, upon notification from the Servicer, shall pay such tax or reporting cost with amounts that otherwise would have been paid to the transferee of such Residual Certificates. In that event, neither the Transferee nor the transferor shall have any right to seek repayment of such amounts from the Company, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust, the REMIC or the holders of any other Certificates, and none of such parties shall have any liability for payment of any such tax or reporting cost. In the event that a Residual Certificate is transferred to a Disqualified Organization, the Servicer shall make, or cause to be made, available the information necessary for the computation of the excise tax imposed under section 860E(e) of the Code.
No Transfer Restrictions The Depositor has not created, incurred or suffered to exist any restriction on transferability of the Receivables except for the restrictions on transferability imposed by this Agreement. The transfer of the Receivables and the Receivable Files by the Depositor to the Issuer pursuant to this Agreement is not subject to the bulk transfer laws or any similar statutory provisions in effect in any applicable jurisdiction.
