As long as Partnership Interests are held by any Group Member, such Partnership Interests shall not be considered Outstanding for any purpose, except as otherwise provided herein. The General Partner or any Affiliate of the General Partner may also purchase or otherwise acquire and sell or otherwise dispose of Partnership Interests for its own account, subject to the provisions of Articles IV and X.
CDSCs Related to the Redemption of Non-Omnibus Commission Shares CDSCs in respect of the redemption of Non-Omnibus Commission Shares shall be allocated to the Distributor or a Successor Distributor depending upon whether the related redeemed Commission Share is attributable to the Distributor or such Successor Distributor, as the case may be, in accordance with Part I above.
Offering of Units by the Underwriters Upon authorization by the Representatives of the release of the Firm Units, the several Underwriters propose to offer the Firm Units for sale upon the terms and conditions to be set forth in the Prospectus.
Sale of Shares by the Fund Unless you are otherwise notified by the Fund, any right granted to you to accept orders for Shares or to make sales on behalf of the Fund or to purchase Shares for resale will not apply to (i) Shares issued in connection with the merger or consolidation of any other investment company with the Fund or its acquisition, by purchase or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the assets of any investment company or substantially all the outstanding shares of any such company, and (ii) to Shares that may be offered by the Fund to shareholders of the Fund by virtue of their being such shareholders.
Purchase of the Units by the Underwriters On the basis of the representations, warranties and covenants contained in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, this Agreement, the Company agrees to sell 30,000,000 Firm Units to the several Underwriters, and each of the Underwriters, severally and not jointly, agrees to purchase the number of Firm Units set forth opposite that Underwriter’s name in Schedule I hereto. The respective purchase obligations of the Underwriters with respect to the Firm Units shall be rounded among the Underwriters to avoid fractional Units, as the Representatives may determine. In addition, the Company grants to the Underwriters the option (the “Over-Allotment Option”) to purchase up to 4,500,000 Additional Units. Such Over-Allotment Option is exercisable in the event that the Underwriters sell more units than the number of Firm Units in the Offering and as set forth in Section 4 hereof. Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase the number of Additional Units (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional Units as the Representatives may determine) that bears the same proportion to the total number of Additional Units to be sold on such Delivery Date as the number of Firm Units set forth in Schedule I hereto opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Firm Units. The purchase price payable by the Underwriters for both the Firm Units and any Additional Units is $9.80 per Unit (the “Purchase Price”). The Company is not obligated to deliver any of the Firm Units or Additional Units to be delivered on the applicable Delivery Date, except upon payment for all such Units to be purchased on such Delivery Date as provided herein. In addition to the discount from the public offering price of the Units represented by the Purchase Price set forth above, the Company hereby agrees to pay to the Underwriters a deferred commission of $0.35 per Unit (including both Firm Units and Additional Units) purchased hereunder (the “Deferred Fee”), subject to Section 5(kk) herein. The Underwriters hereby agree that if no Business Combination is consummated within the time period provided in the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the funds held under the Trust Agreement are distributed to the holders of the Public Shares (the “Public Stockholders”), (a) the Underwriters will forfeit any rights or claims to the Deferred Fee, and (b) the trustee under the Trust Agreement is authorized to distribute the Deferred Fee to the Public Stockholders on a pro rata basis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, at the sole and absolute discretion of the Company, a portion of the Deferred Fee up to $0.10 per Unit in the aggregate, or up to $3,000,000 (or $3,450,000 if the Underwriters’ Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full) in the aggregate, may be paid to third parties not participating in the Offering (but who are members of FINRA or regulated broker-dealers) that assist the Company in consummating its initial Business Combination.
Authorization of the Offered Securities The Offered Securities to be sold by the Company through the Underwriters have been duly and validly authorized by all required corporate action and have been reserved for issuance and sale pursuant to this Agreement and, when so issued and delivered by the Company, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, free and clear of all Liens (as defined in sub-section (r)) imposed by the Company. The Company has sufficient Ordinary Shares for the issuance of the maximum number of Offered Securities issuable pursuant to the Offering as described in the Prospectus.
Purchase and Sale of Investments of the Fund (a) Promptly after each purchase of Securities for the Fund, the Fund shall deliver to the Custodian (i) with respect to each purchase of Securities which are not Money Market Securities, a Certificate; and (ii) with respect to each purchase of Money Market Securities, either a Written Instruction or Oral Instruction, in either case specifying with respect to each purchase:
(1) the name of the issuer and the title of the Securities; (2) the number of shares or the principal amount purchased and accrued interest, if any; (3) the date of purchase and settlement; (4) the purchase price per unit; (5) the total amount payable upon such purchase; (6) the name of the person from whom or the broker through whom the purchase was made, if any; and (7) whether or not such purchase is to be settled through the Book-Entry System or the Depository. The Custodian shall receive the Securities purchased by or for the Fund and upon receipt of Securities shall pay out of the monies held for the account of the Fund the total amount payable upon such purchase, provided that the same conforms to the total amount payable as set forth in such Certificate, Written or Oral Instruction.
(b) Promptly after each sale of Securities of the Fund, the Fund shall deliver to the Custodian (i) with respect to each sale of Securities which are not Money Market Securities, a Certificate, and (ii) with respect to each sale of Money Market Securities, either Written Instruction or Oral Instructions, in either case specifying with respect to such sale: (1) the name of the issuer and the title of the Securities; (2) the number of shares or principal amount sold, and accrued interest, if any; (3) the date of sale; (4) the sale price per unit; (5) the total amount payable to the Fund upon such sale; (6) the name of the broker through whom or the person to whom the sale was made; and (7) whether or not such sale is to be settled through the Book-Entry System or the Depository. The Custodian shall deliver or cause to be delivered the Securities to the broker or other person designated by the Fund upon receipt of the total amount payable to the Fund upon such sale, provided that the same conforms to the total amount payable to the Fund as set forth in such Certificate, Written or Oral Instruction. Subject to the foregoing, the Custodian may accept payment in such form as shall be satisfactory to it, and may deliver Securities and arrange for payment in accordance with the customs prevailing among dealers in Securities.
Sale of Units On the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, you agree to sell the Units on a “best efforts” basis, as agent for the Fund. You are authorized to enlist other members of FINRA (“Soliciting Dealers”), acceptable to the Fund, to sell the Units. As compensation for these services, the Fund agrees that it will pay you a selling commission in an amount equal to 9% of the offering price of the Units sold pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, from which you may reallow a dealer commission of up to 7.5% of such offering price. In addition to such selling commissions, the Fund or the Manager will pay or reimburse to you or participating broker dealers an amount up to 1% of the Gross Proceeds as additional selling compensation in the form of underwriters’ expenses borne by the Fund, the Manager or their affiliates, as described in the following paragraph. You will pay wholesaling compensation to your personnel out of the selling commissions you will receive hereunder. Aggregate selling compensation paid in connection with the offering, will not exceed a total equal to 10% of the Gross Proceeds. It is understood that the Fund may pay or reimburse you and participating dealers a portion of their “underwriters’ expenses” incurred in connection with the offering, and the Fund, the Manager or their Affiliates may bear certain other expenses directly that may be deemed “underwriters’ expenses.” These underwriters’ expenses include amounts paid by the Fund, the Manager or its Affiliates to you and participating broker dealers relating to sales seminar costs and expenses; advertising and promotion expenses; travel, food and lodging costs; telephone expenses; and an allocable portion of any of your salary expenses and legal fees borne by the Manager or its Affiliates. All of such amounts paid to you or participating broker dealers, all underwriters’ expenses borne on behalf of you or any participating broker dealer by the Fund or any other party on its behalf, and all selling commissions are together deemed “underwriting compensation” paid in connection with the offering. The total of all underwriting compensation, including sales commissions, wholesaling salaries and commissions, retail and wholesaling expense reimbursements, seminar expenses and any other underwriters’ expenses or other forms of compensation paid to or for you or participating broker-dealers, will not exceed 10% of the Gross Proceeds. In addition to such selling compensation, the Fund may reimburse the Soliciting Dealers for their bona fide and accountable expenses for due diligence purposes; provided, however, that any such payment or reimbursement will be made only upon presentation of detailed, itemized invoices for such bona fide due diligence expenses. Bona fide due diligence expenses will include actual costs incurred by broker-dealers to review the business, financial statements, transactions, and investments of ATEL and its prior programs to determine the accuracy and completeness of information provided in the Prospectus, the suitability of the investment for their clients and the integrity and management expertise of ATEL and its personnel. Costs may include telephone, postage and similar communication costs incurred in communicating with ATEL personnel, and ATEL’s outside accountants and counsel in this pursuit; travel and lodging costs incurred in visiting the ATEL offices, reviewing ATEL’s books and records and interviewing key ATEL personnel; the cost of outside counsel, accountants and other due diligence investigation specialists engaged by the broker-dealer; and the internal costs of time and materials expended by broker-dealer personnel in this due diligence effort. ATEL will require full itemized documentation of any claimed due diligence expenditure and will determine whether the expenditure can be fairly allocated to bona fide due diligence investigation before permitting reimbursement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, it is understood and agreed that the Manager has reserved the right to accept or reject any subscriptions for Units as set forth in the Prospectus and no selling commission will be payable to you or any of the Soliciting Dealers with respect to the tender of any Subscription Agreement which is rejected by you or the Manager as aforesaid. Furthermore, no subscription will be deemed binding until at least five days following delivery of a Prospectus. The Fund further agrees that it will pay the foregoing selling commission with respect to the purchase price of each of the Units upon the Manager’s acceptance of the order for such Units; provided, however, that none of such commissions will be payable or paid until release to the Fund from the escrow account in which they are to be deposited of proceeds from subscriptions for a minimum of 120,000 Units. It is understood and agreed that you may, in your discretion, permit you, the Manager, a Soliciting Dealer or any Affiliate or employee of any of the foregoing or certain clients of registered investment advisors to purchase Units net of the 7.5% retail selling commissions at a per Unit price of $9.25, as more specifically described in the Prospectus under “Plan of Distribution—Investments by Certain Persons.” Any such sale of Units net of retail commissions to you, the Manager, a Soliciting Dealer or any Affiliate or employee of such person will only be made if and to the extent that any Soliciting Dealer which would otherwise be entitled to a selling commission on any such transaction agrees to such rebate.
Sale of Shares by the Trust The Trust reserves the right to issue any Shares at any time directly to the holders of Shares ("Shareholders"), to sell Shares to its Shareholders or to other persons at not less than net asset value and to issue Shares in exchange for substantially all the assets of any corporation or trust or for the shares of any corporation or trust.
Purchase and Sale of Membership Interests Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, Sellers shall sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase and accept from Sellers, the Membership Interests, free and clear of all Liens (other than restrictions arising under applicable securities Laws or Gaming Laws).
