Directors, Trustees and Shareholders and Massachusetts Business Trust It is understood and is expressly stipulated that neither the holders of shares in the Fund nor any Directors or Trustees of the Fund shall be personally liable hereunder. With respect to any Fund which is a party to this Agreement and which is organized as a Massachusetts business trust (“Trust”), the term “Fund” means and refers to the trust established by its applicable trust agreement (Declaration of Trust) as the same may be amended from time to time. It is expressly agreed that the obligations of any such Trust hereunder shall not be binding upon any of the trustees, shareholders, nominees, officers, agents or employees of the Trust, personally, but bind only the trust property of the Trust, as provided in the Declaration of Trust of the Trust. The execution and delivery of this Agreement has been authorized by the trustees and signed by an authorized officer of the Trust, acting as such, and neither such authorization by such Trustees nor such execution and delivery by such officer shall be deemed to have been made by any of them, but shall bind only the trust property of the Trust as provided in its Declaration of Trust.
Substitute Members No transferee of all or part of a Member's Membership Interest shall become a substitute Member in place of the transferor unless and until:
No Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees, Incorporators, Members and Stockholders No director, officer, employee, incorporator, member or stockholder of the Company, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations. Each Holder of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.
Step-In Rights If Agios, as the Initial Enforcement Party, fails to initiate a suit or take such other appropriate action under Section 10.3(b) above within [**] days after becoming aware of the Competitive Infringement, then Celgene may, in its discretion, provide Agios with written notice of Celgene’s intent to initiate a suit or take other appropriate action to combat such Competitive Infringement. If Celgene, as the Initial Enforcement Party for the Agios Patent Rights and Agios Collaboration Patent Rights after the Agios Opt-Out Notice, fails to initiate a suit or take such other appropriate action under Section 10.3(b) above within [**] days after becoming aware of the Competitive Infringement, then Agios may, in its discretion, provide Celgene with written notice of Agios’ intent to initiate a suit or take other appropriate action to combat such Competitive Infringement. If the Party with such step-in rights under either of the two preceding sentences (“Step-In Enforcement Party”) provides such notice and the Initial Enforcement Party fails to initiate a suit or take such other appropriate action within [**] days after receipt of such notice from the Step-In Enforcement Party, then Step-In Enforcement Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to initiate a suit or take other appropriate action that it believes is reasonably required to protect the applicable Agios Intellectual Property or Agios Collaboration Intellectual Property from Competitive Infringement. The Step-In Enforcement Party shall give the Initial Enforcement Party advance notice of the Step-In Enforcement Party’s intent to file any such suit or take any such action and the reasons therefor and shall provide the Initial Enforcement Party with an opportunity to make suggestions and comments regarding such suit or action. Thereafter, the Step-In Enforcement Party shall keep the Initial Enforcement Party promptly informed and shall from time to time consult with the Initial Enforcement Party regarding the status of any such suit or action and shall provide the Initial Enforcement Party with copies of all material documents (e.g., complaints, answers, counterclaims, material motions, orders of the court, memoranda of law and legal briefs, interrogatory responses, depositions, material pre-trial filings, expert reports, affidavits filed in court, transcripts of hearings and trial testimony, trial exhibits and notices of appeal) filed in, or otherwise relating to, such suit or action. For the avoidance of any doubt, this Section 10.3(d) shall not be applicable to any of the Celgene Collaboration Patent Rights, so Agios shall not have any right to be the Step-In Enforcement Party for Celgene Collaboration Patent Rights without the written agreement of Celgene.
Elective Distributions in Cash or Shares Whenever the Company intends to distribute a dividend payable at the election of the holders of Shares in cash or in additional Shares, the Company shall give notice thereof to the Depositary at least 30 days prior to the proposed distribution stating whether or not it wishes such elective distribution to be made available to Holders of ADSs. Upon receipt of notice indicating that the Company wishes such elective distribution to be made available to Holders of ADSs, the Depositary shall consult with the Company to determine, and the Company shall assist the Depositary in its determination, whether it is lawful and reasonably practicable to make such elective distribution available to the Holders of ADSs. The Depositary shall make such elective distribution available to Holders only if (i) the Company shall have timely requested that the elective distribution is available to Holders of ADRs, (ii) the Depositary shall have received satisfactory documentation within the terms of Section 5.7 hereof (including, without limitation, any legal opinions of counsel in any applicable jurisdiction that the Depositary in its reasonable discretion may request, at the expense of the Company) and (iii) the Depositary shall have determined that such distribution is lawful and reasonably practicable. If the above conditions are not satisfied, the Depositary shall, to the extent permitted by law, distribute to the Holders, on the basis of the same determination as is made in the local market in respect of the Shares for which no election is made, either cash upon the terms described in Section 4.1 hereof or additional ADSs representing such additional Shares upon the terms described in Section 4.2 hereof. If the above conditions are satisfied, the Depositary shall establish an ADS Record Date (on the terms described in Section 4.7 hereof) and establish procedures to enable Holders to elect the receipt of the proposed dividend in cash or in additional ADSs. The Company shall assist the Depositary in establishing such procedures to the extent necessary. Subject to Section 5.9 hereof, if a Holder elects to receive the proposed dividend in cash, the dividend shall be distributed upon the terms described in Section 4.1 hereof or in ADSs, the dividend shall be distributed upon the terms described in Section 4.2 hereof. Nothing herein shall obligate the Depositary to make available to Holders a method to receive the elective dividend in Shares (rather than ADSs). There can be no assurance that Holders generally, or any Holder in particular, will be given the opportunity to receive elective distributions on the same terms and conditions as the holders of Shares.
Members (a) A Person shall be admitted as a Member and shall become bound by, and shall be deemed to have agreed to be bound by, the terms of this Agreement if such Person purchases or otherwise lawfully acquires any Share, and such Person shall become the Record Holder of such Share, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. A Member may be a Class A Member, a Class B Member and or Class C Member, and, in such case, shall have the rights and obligation accorded to the Class A Ordinary Shares with respect to such Class A Ordinary Shares or the rights and obligation accorded to the Class A Preferred Shares with respect to such Class A Preferred Shares, as applicable, the rights and obligations accorded to the Class B Ordinary Shares with respect to such Class B Ordinary Shares and the rights and obligations accorded to the Class C Ordinary Share with respect to such Class C Ordinary Share. A Person may become a Record Holder without the consent or approval of any of the Members and without physical execution of this Agreement. A Person may not become a Member without acquiring a Share.
Members Capital Contributions (a) Initial Capital Contribution. The initial Capital Contribution described on Schedule 1 (the “Property”) was made by the previous Member.
