Transfers of Units (a) Except as otherwise agreed to in writing between the Managing Member and the applicable Member and reflected in the books and records of the Company or as otherwise provided in this Article IX, no holder of Units may sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber, distribute, contribute or otherwise dispose of (whether directly or indirectly (including, for the avoidance of doubt, by Transfer or issuance of any Capital Stock of any Member that is not a natural person), whether with or without consideration and whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law) any interest (legal or beneficial) in any Units (a “Transfer”), except Exchanges pursuant to and in accordance with Article XII or Transfers pursuant to and in accordance with Section 9.1(b).
Transfers of Limited Partnership Interests 9.1 Restrictions on Transfer of Limited Partnership Interests.
Transfers Generally Tenant shall not assign, transfer, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise transfer this Lease or any interest therein, nor sublease the whole or any part of the Leased Premises, nor shall this Lease or any interest hereunder be assignable or transferable by any process or proceeding of any court, or otherwise (each of the foregoing being a "Transfer"), without in each case first obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Any such Transfer or transaction undertaken without Landlord's prior written consent shall be null and void. In determining whether to grant consent to a proposed Transfer, Landlord may reasonably consider any relevant factor, including but not limited to the experience and business reputation of the proposed assignee, sublessee, or transferee in operating its business; whether the use of the Leased Premises following the Transfer is similar to that of Tenant, or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Landlord and appropriate for a first-class high rise office building in the Bellevue Central Business District; whether the other party to the proposed Transfer is a person with whom Landlord is presently negotiating for a lease of space in the Building or in any other building owned by an Affiliate of Landlord; whether the other party to the proposed Transfer is a governmental agency or any party by whom any suit or action could be defended on the ground of sovereign immunity; notwithstanding that Tenant and/or others remain liable under the Lease, whether the proposed assignee, sublessee, or transferee has a net worth, and financial strength and credit record, satisfactory to Landlord (provided that if the financial condition of the proposed assignee, sublessee, or transferee is at least equal to the net worth of Tenant or Guarantor (whichever is greater) at the time of this Lease it shall be satisfactory to Landlord); whether use of the Leased Premises by the proposed assignee, sublessee, or transferee will not violate or create any potential violation of any laws; whether the type and quality of the business to be operated or likely to be operated by the proposed assignee, sublessee, or transferee is consistent with the image of a first-class office building and whether it would be considered inappropriate for such an office building (provided that Tenant's use is deemed to be an appropriate use and business); and whether Landlord's consent might result in a breach of any other lease or agreement to which Landlord is a party. No Transfer shall relieve Tenant or Guarantor of any liability under this Lease or Guarantee of Lease. A Transfer includes, without limitation (and the following shall be deemed to be deemed a "Transfer"): (i) a consolidation or merger of Tenant; (ii) a change in the ownership or voting rights of more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the issued and outstanding stock of any corporate tenant; (iii) any sublease, assignment or transfer which would otherwise occur by operation of law, merger, consolidation, reorganization, transfer or other significant change in corporate or proprietary structure; (iv) the sale, assignment or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Tenant, with or without the specific assignment of this Lease; and (v) a change in control in any partnership tenant; provided, however, the foregoing shall not be considered Transfers requiring Landlord's consent so long as Tenant or Guarantor is an entity whose outstanding stock is listed on a recognized security exchange, or if at least 80% of the voting stock of Tenant or Guarantor is owned by another entity, the voting stock of which is so listed. The acceptance by Landlord of any amounts following any transaction prohibited hereunder shall not be deemed to be a consent by Landlord nor shall the same be deemed to be a waiver of any right or remedy of Landlord hereunder. Consent to any such Transfer shall not operate as a waiver of the necessity for consent to any subsequent Transfer. If Landlord's consent is requested for a Transfer, Landlord shall have the right to terminate this Lease with respect to that portion of the Leased Premises for which such consent is requested, at the proposed effective date of such assignment, sublease or transfer, and enter into the relationship of Landlord and Tenant with the proposed assignee, subtenant, or transferee based on the rent (and/or other compensation) and term agreed to by such assignee, subtenant or transferee and otherwise upon the terms and conditions of this Lease. In connection with any proposed Transfer, Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with fully executed copies of all documents and instruments related to the proposed Transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord's prior consent to a Transfer to an Affiliate of Xxxxx Xxxxx, Inc. shall not be required provided: (i) the Transfer shall only be effective as long as the Affiliate receiving the Transfer is and at all times during the Lease Term remains an Affiliate of Xxxxx Xxxxx, Inc.; (ii) neither Tenant nor Guarantor is released or relieved of any liability or obligations under this Lease or the Guarantee of Lease, or both, and each expressly reaffirms the foregoing to Landlord in writing; (iii) Tenant is not in default under or in breach of this Lease; and (iv) Tenant notified Landlord in writing of the Transfer to an Affiliate at least ten (10) days prior to the Transfer.
Transfers by Members No holder of Units shall Transfer any interest in any Units, except Transfers (a) pursuant to and in accordance with Sections 10.02 and 10.09 or (b) approved in advance and in writing by the Manager, in the case of Transfers by any Member other than the Manager, or (c) in the case of Transfers by the Manager, to any Person who succeeds to the Manager in accordance with Section 6.04. Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Transfer” shall not include (i) an event that terminates the existence of a Member for income tax purposes (including, without limitation, a change in entity classification of a Member under Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-3, a sale of assets by, or liquidation of, a Member pursuant to an election under Code Sections 336 or 338, or merger, severance, or allocation within a trust or among sub-trusts of a trust that is a Member), but that does not terminate the existence of such Member under applicable state Law (or, in the case of a trust that is a Member, does not terminate the trusteeship of the fiduciaries under such trust with respect to all the Units of such trust that is a Member) or (ii) any indirect Transfer of Units held by the Manager by virtue of any Transfer of Equity Securities in the Corporation.
Restrictions on Transfer of Limited Partnership Interests (a) Subject to the provisions of 9.2(b), (c) and (d), no Limited Partner may offer, sell, assign, hypothecate, pledge or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its Limited Partnership Interest, or any of such Limited Partner’s economic rights as a Limited Partner, whether voluntarily or by operation of law or at judicial sale or otherwise (collectively, a “Transfer”) without the consent of the General Partner, which consent may be granted or withheld in its sole and absolute discretion. Any such purported transfer undertaken without such consent shall be considered to be null and void ab initio and shall not be given effect. The General Partner may require, as a condition of any Transfer to which it consents, that the transferor assume all costs incurred by the Partnership in connection therewith.
Prohibition on Transfers, Other Actions Until the earlier of (a) the stockholder approval of the Merger and (b) termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 5.01, the Stockholder agrees that it shall not (i) Transfer any of such Stockholder’s Covered Shares, Beneficial Ownership thereof or any other interest therein (including any voting power with respect thereto) unless such Transfer is a Permitted Transfer; (ii) enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any Person, or take any other action, that violates or conflicts with or would reasonably be expected to violate or conflict with, or result in or give rise to a violation of or conflict with, such Stockholder’s representations, warranties, covenants and obligations under this Agreement; or (iii) take any action that could reasonably be expected to restrict or otherwise affect such Stockholder’s legal power, authority and right to comply with and perform its covenants and obligations under this Agreement. Any Transfer in violation of this provision shall be void ab initio. The Stockholder shall not request that the Company or its transfer agent register the transfer (book-entry or otherwise) of any Certificate representing any of such Stockholder’s Covered Shares save for any Permitted Transfer. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall require any action, or restrict the Stockholder, with respect to any Covered Shares subject to any pledge or security interest in effect as of the date hereof as set forth on Schedule 1.B hereto to the extent such action or restriction is inconsistent with the terms of such pledge or security interest; provided that, unless and until there is a bona fide foreclosure with respect to such pledge or security interest, such Stockholder agrees that there are no terms of any such pledge or security interest that will prevent or impair such Stockholder from complying with any obligation, agreement or covenant set forth herein.
Transfers and Pledges This Agreement shall not impose any restriction on the right of the Member to sell, transfer, assign, dispose of or pledge as collateral any membership interest of the Company.
Transfers, etc (a) The Company will maintain a register containing the name and address of the Registered Holder of this Warrant. The Registered Holder may change its or his address as shown on the warrant register by written notice to the Company requesting such change.
Limitation on Restrictions on Distributions from Restricted Subsidiaries (a) The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create or otherwise cause or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:
Exchange and Registration of Transfer of Notes; Restrictions on Transfer; Depositary (a) The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office a register (the register maintained in such office or in any other office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 4.02, the “Note Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers of Notes. Such register shall be in written form or in any form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable period of time. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed the “Note Registrar” for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. The Company may appoint one or more co-Note Registrars in accordance with Section 4.02. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note to the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar, and satisfaction of the requirements for such transfer set forth in this Section 2.05, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture. Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at any such office or agency maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 4.02. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive, bearing registration numbers not contemporaneously outstanding. All Notes presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange, repurchase or conversion shall (if so required by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and duly executed, by the Holder thereof or its attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing. No service charge shall be imposed by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar, any co-Note Registrar or the Paying Agent for any exchange or registration of transfer of Notes, but the Company may require a Holder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax required in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of new Notes issued upon such exchange or registration of transfer being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for exchange or registration of transfer. None of the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar shall be required to exchange or register a transfer of (i) any Notes surrendered for conversion or, if a portion of any Note is surrendered for conversion, such portion thereof surrendered for conversion or (ii) any Notes, or a portion of any Note, surrendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn) in accordance with Article 15. All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with this Indenture shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.
