Right to Exchange (A) Series D Preferred Units will be exchangeable in whole or in part at anytime on or after the tenth anniversary of the date of issuance, at the option of the holders thereof, for authorized but previously unissued shares of 9.125% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock of the General Partner (the "Series D Preferred Stock") at an exchange rate of one share of Series D Preferred Stock for one Series D Preferred Unit, subject to adjustment as described below (the "Series D Exchange Price"), provided that the Series D Preferred Units will become exchangeable at any time, in whole or in part, at the option of the holders of Series D Preferred Units for Series D Preferred Stock if (y) at any time full distributions shall not have been made on the applicable Series D Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date on any Series D Preferred Unit with respect to six (6) prior quarterly distribution periods, whether or not consecutive, provided, however, that a distribution in respect of Series D Preferred Units shall be considered timely made if made within two (2) Business Days after the applicable Series D Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date if at the time of such late payment there shall not be any prior quarterly distribution periods in respect of which full distributions were made more than two (2) Business Days after the applicable Series D Preferred Unit Distribution Payment Date or (z) upon receipt by a holder or holders of Series D Preferred Units of (A) notice from the General Partner that the General Partner or a Subsidiary of the General Partner has taken the position that the Partnership is, or upon the occurrence of a defined event in the immediate future will be, a PTP and (B) an opinion rendered by an outside nationally recognized independent counsel familiar with such matters addressed to a holder or holders of Series D Preferred Units, that the Partnership is or likely is, or upon the occurrence of a defined event in the immediate future will be or likely will be, a PTP. In addition, the Series D Preferred Units may be exchanged for Series D Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at the option of any holder prior to the tenth anniversary of the issuance date and after the third anniversary thereof if such holder of a Series D Preferred Units shall deliver to the General Partner either (i) a private ruling letter addressed to such holder of Series D Preferred Units or (ii) an opinion of independent counsel reasonably acceptable to the General Partner based on the enactment of temporary or final Treasury Regulations or the publication of a Revenue Ruling, in either case to the effect that an exchange of the Series D Preferred Units at such earlier time would not cause the Series D Preferred Units to be considered "stock and securities" within the meaning of section 351(e) of the Code for purposes of determining whether the holder of such Series D Preferred Units is an "investment company" under section 721(b) of the Code if an exchange is permitted at such earlier date. Furthermore, the Series D Preferred Units may be exchanged in whole but not in part by any holder thereof which is a real estate investment trust within the meaning of Sections 856 through 859 of the Code for Series D Preferred Stock (but only if the exchange in whole may be accomplished consistently with the ownership limitations set forth under Article 5 of the Articles of Incorporation (taking into account exceptions thereto) if at any time (i) the Partnership reasonably determines that the assets and income of the Partnership for a taxable year after 1999 would not satisfy the income and assets tests of Section 856 of the Code for such taxable year if the Partnership were a real estate investment trust within the meaning of the Code or (ii) any such holder of Series D Preferred Units shall deliver to the Partnership and the General Partner an opinion of independent counsel reasonably acceptable to the General Partner to the effect that, based on the assets and income of the Partnership for a taxable year after 1999, the Partnership would not satisfy the income and assets tests of Section 856 of the Code for such taxable year if the Partnership were a real estate investment trust within the meaning of the Code and that such failure would create a meaningful risk that a holder of the Series D Preferred Units would fail to maintain qualification as a real estate investment trust. (B) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 4.8(G)(i)(A), if an Series D Exchange Notice (as defined herein) has been delivered to the General Partner, then the General Partner may, at its option, elect to redeem or cause the Partnership to redeem all or a portion of the outstanding Series D Preferred Units for cash in an amount equal to the original Capital Contribution per Series D Preferred Unit and all accrued and unpaid distributions thereon to the date of redemption. The General Partner may exercise its option to redeem the Series D Preferred Units for cash pursuant to this Section 4.8(g)(i)(B) by giving each holder of record of Series D Preferred Units notice of its election to redeem for cash, within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the Series D Exchange Notice, by (i) fax, and (ii) registered mail, postage paid, at the address of each holder as it may appear on the records of the Partnership stating (i) the redemption date, which shall be no later than sixty (60) days following the receipt of the Series D Exchange Notice, (ii) the redemption price, (iii) the place or places where the Series D Preferred Units are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price, (iv) that distributions on the Series D Preferred Units will cease to accrue on such redemption date; (v) that payment of the redemption price will be made upon presentation and surrender of the Series D Preferred Units and (vi) the aggregate number of Series D Preferred Units to be redeemed, and if fewer than all of the outstanding Series D Preferred Units are to be redeemed, the number of Series D 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 D Preferred Units the total number of Series D Preferred Units held by such holder represents) of the aggregate number of Series D Preferred Units being redeemed. (C) Upon the occurrence of an event giving rise to exchange rights pursuant to Section 4.8(g)(i)(A), in the event an exchange of all or a portion of Series D Preferred Units pursuant to Section 4.8(g)(i)(A) would violate the provisions on ownership limitation of the General Partner set forth in Article 5 of the Articles of Incorporation, the General Partner shall give written notice thereof to each holder of record of Series D Preferred Units, within five (5) Business Days following receipt of the Series D Exchange Notice, by (i) fax, and (ii) registered mail, postage prepaid, at the address of each such holder set forth in the records of the Partnership. In such event, each holder of Series D Preferred Units shall be entitled to exchange, pursuant to the provision of Section 4.8(g)(ii) a number of Series D Preferred Units which would comply with the provisions on the ownership limitation of the General Partner set forth in such Article 5 of the Articles of Incorporation and any Series D Preferred Units not so exchanged (the "Series D Excess Units") shall be redeemed by the Partnership for cash in an amount equal to the original Capital Contribution per Series D Excess Unit, plus any accrued and unpaid distributions thereon, whether or not declared, to the date of redemption. The written notice of the General Partner shall state (i) the number of Series D Excess Units held by such holder, (ii) the redemption price of the Series D Excess Units, (iii) the date on which such Series D Excess Units shall be redeemed, which date shall be no later than sixty (60) days following the receipt of the Series D Exchange Notice, (iv) the place or places where such Series D Excess Units are to be surrendered for payment of the Series D Redemption Price, (iv) that distributions on the Series D Excess Units will cease to accrue on such redemption date, and (v) that payment of the redemption price will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Series D Excess Units. In the event an exchange would result in Series D Excess Units, as a condition to such exchange, each holder of such units agrees to provide representations and covenants reasonably requested by the General Partner relating to (i) the widely held nature of the interests in such holder, sufficient to assure the General Partner that the holder's ownership of stock of the General Partner (without regard to the limits described above) will not cause any individual to own in excess of 9.8% of the stock of the General Partner; and (ii) to the extent such holder can so represent and covenant without obtaining information from its owners, the holder's ownership of tenants of the Partnership and its affiliates. (D) The redemption of Series D Preferred Units described in Section 4.8(g)(i)(B) and (C) shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4.8(e)(ii)(A) and Section 4.8(e)(iii)(B); provided, however, that for purposes hereof the term "Redemption Price" in Sections 4.8(e)(ii)(A) and 4.8(e)(iii)(B) shall be read to mean the original Capital Contribution per Series D Preferred Unit being redeemed plus all accrued and unpaid distributions to the redemption date.
Restrictions on Registration Rights If (A) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on a date one hundred and twenty (120) days after the effective date of, a Company initiated Registration and provided that the Company has delivered written notice to the Holders prior to receipt of a Demand Registration pursuant to subsection 2.1.1 and it continues to actively employ, in good faith, all reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Registration Statement to become effective; (B) the Holders have requested an Underwritten Registration and the Company and the Holders are unable to obtain the commitment of underwriters to firmly underwrite the offer; or (C) in the good faith judgment of the Board such Registration would be seriously detrimental to the Company and the Board concludes as a result that it is essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement at such time, then in each case the Company shall furnish to such Holders a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be seriously detrimental to the Company for such Registration Statement to be filed in the near future and that it is therefore essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement. In such event, the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than thirty (30) days; provided, however, that the Company shall not defer its obligation in this manner more than once in any 12-month period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Registration shall be effected or permitted and no Registration Statement shall become effective, with respect to any Registrable Securities held by any Holder, until after the expiration of the Founder Shares Lock-Up Period or the Private Placement Lock-Up Period, as the case may be.
Restrictions on Public Sale by Holders of Registrable Securities Each Holder of Registrable Securities agrees, if requested by the underwriters of an Underwritten Offering, to enter into a customary letter agreement with such underwriters providing such Holder will not effect any public sale or distribution of Registrable Securities during the 60 calendar day period beginning on the date of a prospectus or prospectus supplement filed with the Commission with respect to the pricing of any Underwritten Offering, provided that (i) the duration of the foregoing restrictions shall be no longer than the duration of the shortest restriction generally imposed by the underwriters on the Partnership or the officers, directors or any other Affiliate of the Partnership on whom a restriction is imposed and (ii) the restrictions set forth in this Section 2.07 shall not apply to any Registrable Securities that are included in such Underwritten Offering by such Holder. In addition, this Section 2.07 shall not apply to any Holder that is not entitled to participate in such Underwritten Offering, whether because such Holder delivered an Opt-Out Notice prior to receiving notice of the Underwritten Offering or because such Holder holds less than $15 million of the then-outstanding Registrable Securities.
Restricted Stock Legend (i) Each Conversion Share will bear the Restricted Stock Legend if the Note upon the conversion of which such Conversion Share was issued was (or would have been had it not been converted) a Transfer-Restricted Security at the time such Conversion Share was issued; provided, however, that such Conversion Share need not bear the Restricted Stock Legend if the Company determines, in its reasonable discretion, that such Conversion Share need not bear the Restricted Stock Legend. (ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.09(F), a Conversion Share need not bear a Restricted Stock Legend if such Conversion Share is issued in an uncertificated form that does not permit affixing legends thereto, provided the Company takes measures (including the assignment thereto of a “restricted” CUSIP number) that it reasonably deems appropriate to enforce the transfer restrictions referred to in the Restricted Stock Legend.
Transferability of Registration Rights The registration rights set forth in this Agreement are transferable to each transferee of Registrable Securities. Each subsequent holder of Registrable Securities must consent in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement in order to acquire the rights granted pursuant to this Agreement.
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.
Legend on Shares Each certificate for shares of Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant, unless at the time of exercise such shares are registered under the Act, shall bear substantially the following legend (and any additional legend required under the Act or otherwise): “THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, EXCHANGED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT (I) PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT EFFECTIVE UNDER THE ACT, OR (II) PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT. Any certificate issued at any time in exchange or substitution for any certificate bearing such legend (except a new certificate issued upon completion of a public distribution pursuant to a registration statement under the Act of the securities represented thereby) shall also bear such legend unless, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, the securities represented thereby need no longer be subject to the transfer restrictions contained in this Warrant. The exercise and transfer restriction provisions of this Warrant shall be binding upon all subsequent Holders of the Warrant.
Certain Limitations on Registration Rights In the case of any registration under Section 2.1 involving an underwritten offering, or, in the case of a registration under Section 2.2, if the Company has determined to enter into an underwriting agreement in connection therewith, all securities to be included in such underwritten offering shall be subject to such underwriting agreement and no Person may participate in such underwritten offering unless such Person (i) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided therein and completes and executes all reasonable questionnaires, and other documents (including custody agreements and powers of attorney) which must be executed in connection therewith; provided, however, that all such documents shall be consistent with the provisions hereof and (ii) provides such other information to the Company or the underwriter as may be necessary to register such Person’s securities.
Limitations on Registration Rights Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Representative may not exercise its rights under Section 2.1 and 2.2 hereunder after five (5) and seven (7) years after the effective date of the registration statement relating to the Company’s initial public offering, respectively, and (ii) the Representative may not exercise its rights under Section 2.1 more than one time.
Restrictions on Transfer; Restrictive Legends Except as otherwise permitted by this Section 2, each Warrant shall (and each Warrant issued upon direct or indirect transfer or in substitution for any Warrant pursuant to Section 1.6 or Section 4 herein shall) be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form: THIS WARRANT AND ANY SECURITIES ACQUIRED UPON THE EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND NEITHER THE SECURITIES NOR ANY INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT OR SUCH LAWS OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT AND SUCH LAWS. Except as otherwise permitted by this Section 2, each stock certificate for Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of any Warrant and each stock certificate issued upon the direct or indirect transfer of any such Warrant Shares shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form: THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE (THE "SHARES") HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE "ACT") OR THE APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION AND ARE "RESTRICTED SECURITIES" AS THAT TERM IS DEFINED IN RULE 144 UNDER THE ACT. THE SHARES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED OTHER THAN (I) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM UNDER THE ACT AND THE APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION, AND (II) UPON RECEIPT BY THE CORPORATION OF EVIDENCE SATISFACTORY TO IT OF COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACT AND THE APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Warrantholder may require the Company to issue a Warrant or a stock certificate for Warrant Shares, in each case without a legend, if either (i) such Warrant or such Warrant Shares, as the case may be, have been registered for resale under the Securities Act, or (ii) the Warrantholder has delivered to the Company an opinion of legal counsel, which opinion shall be addressed to the Company and be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company's counsel, to the effect that such registration is not required with respect to such Warrant or such Warrant Shares, as the case may be.
