Related to Assignment and Transferability Limitations
Assignment and Transfers Except as the Committee may otherwise permit pursuant to the Plan, the rights and interests of the Participant under this Agreement may not be sold, assigned, encumbered or otherwise transferred except, in the event of the death of the Participant, by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. In the event of any attempt by the Participant to alienate, assign, pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise dispose of the Stock Units or any right hereunder, except as provided for in this Agreement, or in the event of the levy or any attachment, execution or similar process upon the rights or interests hereby conferred, the Company may terminate the Stock Units by notice to the Participant, and the Stock Units and all rights hereunder shall thereupon become null and void. The rights and protections of the Company hereunder shall extend to any successors or assigns of the Company and to the Company’s parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates. This Agreement may be assigned by the Company without the Participant’s consent.
Form and Transferability of Receipts Definitive Receipts shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A annexed to this Deposit Agreement, with appropriate insertions, modifications and omissions, as hereinafter provided. No Receipt shall be entitled to any benefits under this Deposit Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless such Receipt shall have been executed by the Depositary by the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Depositary and, if a Registrar for the Receipts shall have been appointed, countersigned by the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized officer of the Registrar. The Depositary shall maintain books on which each Receipt so executed and delivered as hereinafter provided and the transfer of each such Receipt shall be registered. Receipts bearing the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Depositary who was at any time a proper signatory of the Depositary shall bind the Depositary, notwithstanding that such signatory has ceased to hold such office prior to the execution and delivery of such Receipts by the Registrar or did not hold such office on the date of issuance of such Receipts. The Receipts may be endorsed with or have incorporated in the text thereof such legends or recitals or modifications not inconsistent with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement as may be required by the Depositary or required to comply with any applicable law or regulations thereunder or with the rules and regulations of any securities exchange upon which American Depositary Shares may be listed or to conform with any usage with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Receipts are subject by reason of the date of issuance of the underlying Deposited Securities or otherwise. Title to a Receipt (and to the American Depositary Shares evidenced thereby), when properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer, shall be transferable by delivery with the same effect as in the case of a negotiable instrument; provided, however, that the Depositary, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, may treat the Owner thereof as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of determining the person entitled to distribution of dividends or other distributions or to any notice provided for in this Deposit Agreement and for all other purposes.
Form and Transferability of Adss (a) Form. Certificated ADSs shall be evidenced by definitive ADRs which shall be engraved, printed, lithographed or produced in such other manner as may be agreed upon by the Company and the Depositary. ADRs may be issued under the Deposit Agreement in denominations of any whole number of ADSs. The ADRs shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A to the Deposit Agreement, with any appropriate insertions, modifications and omissions, in each case as otherwise contemplated in the Deposit Agreement or required by law. ADRs shall be (i) dated, (ii) signed by the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Depositary, (iii) countersigned by the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Registrar, and (iv) registered in the books maintained by the Registrar for the registration of issuances and transfers of ADSs. No ADR and no Certificated ADS evidenced thereby shall be entitled to any benefits under the Deposit Agreement or be valid or enforceable for any purpose against the Depositary or the Company, unless such ADR shall have been so dated, signed, countersigned and registered. ADRs bearing the facsimile signature of a duly-authorized signatory of the Depositary or the Registrar, who at the time of signature was a duly-authorized signatory of the Depositary or the Registrar, as the case may be, shall bind the Depositary, notwithstanding the fact that such signatory has ceased to be so authorized prior to the delivery of such ADR by the Depositary. The ADRs shall bear a CUSIP number that is different from any CUSIP number that was, is or may be assigned to any depositary receipts previously or subsequently issued pursuant to any other arrangement between the Depositary (or any other depositary) and the Company and which are not ADRs outstanding hereunder.
Restrictions and Limitations (a) The Trust shall not lend assets of the Trust to any officer or Trustee of the Trust or to any officer, director, or stockholder (or partner of a stockholder) of, or person financially interested in, the investment adviser or any underwriter of the Trust, or to the investment adviser of the Trust or to any underwriter of the Trust. (b) The Trust shall not restrict the transferability or negotiability of the shares of the Trust, except in conformity with the statements with respect thereto contained in the Trust's Registration Statement, and not in contravention of such rules and regulations as the SEC may prescribe. (c) The Trust shall not permit any officer or Trustee of the Trust, or any officer, director, or stockholder (or partner of a stockholder) of the investment adviser or any underwriter of the Trust to deal for or on behalf of the Trust with himself as principal or agent, or with any partnership, association or trust in which he has a financial interest; provided that the foregoing provisions shall not prevent, to the extent consistent with applicable securities laws: (1) officers and Trustees of the Trust from buying, holding, redeeming, or selling shares in the Trust, or from being officers, directors, or stockholders (or partners of a stockholder) of or otherwise financially interested in the investment adviser or any underwriter of the Trust; (2) purchases or sales of securities or other property by the Trust from or to an affiliated person or to the investment adviser or any underwriter of the Trust, if such transactions are not prohibited by the 1940 Act or have been exempted by SEC order from the prohibitions of the 1940 Act; (3) purchases of investments for the portfolio of the Trust through a securities dealer who is, or one or more of whose partners, stockholders, officers, or directors is, an officer or Trustee of the Trust, if such transactions are handled in the capacity of broker only and commissions charged do not exceed customary brokerage charges for such services; (4) employment of legal counsel, registrar, transfer agent, dividend disbursing agent, or custodian who is, or has a partner, stockholder, officer, or director who is, an officer or Trustee of the Trust, if only customary fees are charged for services to the Trust; (5) sharing statistical research, legal and management expenses and office hire and expenses with any other investment company in which an officer or Trustee of the Trust is an officer, trustee, or director or otherwise financially interested.
Limitations on Rights of Participants A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.12 or 2.13 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.14(e) as though it were a Lender.
