Underwriting Practices. The decision to accept an indemnity or undertaking must frequently be made on a case-by-case basis. It is important to bear in mind that, all too often, an indemnity which is unsupported by a deposit merely gives the title insurer a right to sue the indemnitor, who may or may not be 20 See §§10.06 et seq. regarding affirmative insurance. financially responsible.21 If the indemnity is accompanied by a deposit of funds, one should be concerned about the possibility of a subsequent bankruptcy filing by the indemnitor. If this occurs, the trustee may demand the turnover of the funds as property of the estate. However, if the agreement makes it clear that the funds be- long to the title company, it may be possible to resist successfully.22 When an indemnity is accepted, it is preferable to except and insure over the matter which is the subject thereof, rather than omit or waive the objection, in order to avoid questions of marketability.23 However, as noted above, the ac- ceptance of an indemnity issued by another title insurer generally obligates the re- cipient to omit the item in question.24

  • Underwriting Procedures If the Initiating Holders so elect, the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration shall be in the form of a firm commitment underwritten offering and the managing underwriter or underwriters selected for such offering shall be the Approved Underwriter (as hereinafter defined) selected in accordance with Section 3(f). In connection with any Demand Registration under this Section 3 involving an underwriting, none of the Registrable Securities held by any of the Insurance Partners Stockholders (other than the Initiating Holders) or shares of Common Stock held by any Other Rightholders making a request for inclusion thereof pursuant to Section 3(a) shall be included in such underwriting unless such Insurance Partners Stockholders or Other Rightholders, as the case may be, accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon by the Company, the Initiating Holders and the Approved Underwriter, and then only in such quantity as will not, in the opinion of the Approved Underwriter, jeopardize the success of such offering. If the Approved Underwriter advises the Company in writing that in its opinion the aggregate amount of Common Stock requested to be included in such offering is sufficiently large to have a material adverse effect on the success of such offering, then the Company shall include in such registration only the aggregate amount of Common Stock that in the opinion of the Approved Underwriter may be sold without any such material adverse effect and shall reduce, as to the Initiating Holders, the Insurance Partners Stockholders (other than the Initiating Holders) and the Other Rightholders as a group, the amount of Common Stock to be included in such registration, pro rata within such group based on the number of Registrable Securities and other shares of Common Stock included in the request for registration pursuant to Section 3(a).

  • Underwriting Requirements (a) If, pursuant to Subsection 2.1, the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to Subsection 2.1, and the Company shall include such information in the Demand Notice. The underwriter(s) will be selected by the Company and shall be reasonably acceptable to a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders. In such event, the right of any Holder to include such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company as provided in Subsection 2.4(e)) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter(s) selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Subsection 2.3, if the managing underwriter(s) advise(s) the Initiating Holders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Initiating Holders shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities that otherwise would be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated among such Holders of Registrable Securities, including the Initiating Holders, in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the number of Registrable Securities owned by each Holder or in such other proportion as shall mutually be agreed to by all such selling Holders; provided, however, that the number of Registrable Securities held by the Holders to be included in such underwriting shall not be reduced unless all other securities are first entirely excluded from the underwriting. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to any Holder to the nearest one hundred (100) shares.
