Common Units The capital structure of the Company shall consist of one class of common interests (the "Common Units"). The Company shall have authority to issue one thousand (1,000) Common Units. Each Common Unit shall have one vote and shall otherwise be identical with each other Common Unit in every respect.
Class B Units The term “Class B Units” means the Units having the privileges, preferences, and rights specified with respect to “Class B Units” in this Agreement, including those described in Section 7.1(c)(3).
Partnership Units Each Partner shall own Partnership Units in the amounts set forth for such Partner in Exhibit A and shall have a Percentage Interest in the Partnership as set forth in Exhibit A, which Percentage Interest shall be adjusted in Exhibit A from time to time by the General Partner to the extent necessary to reflect accurately redemptions, additional Capital Contributions, the issuance of additional Partnership Units or similar events having an effect on the number of Partnership Units held by, and the Percentage Interest of, any Partner. Each Partnership Unit shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote on all matters on which the Partners (or any portion of the Partners) are entitled to vote under this Agreement.
Partnership Interests Except as may otherwise be provided herein, each Partner’s percentage interest in the assets, profits, and distributions of the Partnership (“Partnership Interest”) shall be as set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
Additional Units The General Partner may from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion admit any Person as an additional Limited Partner of the Partnership (each such Person, if so admitted, an “Additional Limited Partner” and, collectively, the “Additional Limited Partners”). A Person shall be deemed admitted as a Limited Partner at the time such Person (i) executes this Agreement or a counterpart of this Agreement and (ii) is named as a Limited Partner in the books of the Partnership. Each Substitute Limited Partner shall be deemed an Additional Limited Partner whose admission as an Additional Limited Partner has been approved in writing by the General Partner for all purposes hereunder. Subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing requirements and Section 4.1(c), the General Partner is hereby expressly authorized to cause the Partnership to issue additional Units for such consideration and on such terms and conditions, and to such Persons, including the General Partner, any Limited Partner or any of their Affiliates, as shall be established by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion, in each case without the approval of any other Partner or any other Person. Without limiting the foregoing, but subject to Section 4.1(c), the General Partner is expressly authorized to cause the Partnership to issue Units (A) upon the conversion, redemption or exchange of any debt or other securities issued by the Partnership, (B) for less than fair market value or no consideration, so long as the General Partner concludes that such issuance is in the best interests of the Partnership and its Partners, and (C) in connection with the merger of any other Person into the Partnership if the applicable merger agreement provides that Persons are to receive Units in exchange for their interests in the Person merging into the Partnership. The General Partner is hereby expressly authorized to take any action, including without limitation amending this Agreement without the approval of any other Partner, to reflect any issuance of additional Units. Subject to Section 4.1(c), additional Units may be Class A Common Units, Class B Common Units or other Units.
Fractional Units Class A Shareholders holding a number of Subject Class A Shares which would entitle such holders to receive less than one whole BPY Unit pursuant to this Agreement shall receive cash in lieu of fractional units. Fractional BPY Units shall not be distributed to Class A Shareholders or credited to book-entry accounts. With respect to any delivery of BPY Units to a Class A Shareholder under this Agreement, BAM shall promptly instruct the transfer agent for the BPY Units to, as soon as practicable, (a) determine the number of whole BPY Units and fractional BPY Units allocable to each holder of record or beneficial owner of Class A Shares entitled to receive BPY Units at such time, (b) aggregate all such fractional units into whole BPY Units and sell the whole BPY Units obtained thereby in open market transactions, in each case, at then-prevailing trading prices on behalf of holders who would otherwise be entitled to fractional BPY Units, and (c) distribute to each such holder, or for the benefit of each such beneficial owner, such holder or owner’s ratable share of the net proceeds of such sale, based upon the average gross selling price per BPY Unit after making appropriate deductions for any amount required to be withheld for tax purposes and any brokerage fees incurred in connection with these sales of fractional BPY Units. Neither BAM nor the Rights Agent will guarantee any minimum sale price for the fractional BPY Units. Neither BAM nor the Rights Agent will pay any interest on the proceeds from the sale of fractional BPY Units. The transfer agent of the BPY Units acting on behalf of the applicable party will have the sole discretion to select the broker-dealers through which to sell the aggregated fractional BPY Units and to determine when, how and at what price to sell such units, provided that neither the transfer agent nor the broker-dealers through which the aggregated fractional BPY Units are sold shall be Affiliates of BAM.
Units Interests in the Partnership shall be represented by Units. The Units initially are comprised of one Class: Class A Units. The General Partner may establish, from time to time in accordance with such procedures as the General Partner shall determine from time to time, other Classes, one or more series of any such Classes, or other Partnership securities with such designations, preferences, rights, powers and duties (which may be senior to existing Classes and series of Units or other Partnership securities), as shall be determined by the General Partner, including (i) the right to share in Profits and Losses or items thereof; (ii) the right to share in Partnership distributions; (iii) the rights upon dissolution and liquidation of the Partnership; (iv) whether, and the terms and conditions upon which, the Partnership may or shall be required to redeem the Units or other Partnership securities (including sinking fund provisions); (v) whether such Unit or other Partnership security is issued with the privilege of conversion or exchange and, if so, the terms and conditions of such conversion or exchange; (vi) the terms and conditions upon which each Unit or other Partnership security will be issued, evidenced by certificates and assigned or transferred; (vii) the method for determining the Total Percentage Interest as to such Units or other Partnership securities; and (viii) the right, if any, of the holder of each such Unit or other Partnership security to vote on Partnership matters, including matters relating to the relative designations, preferences, rights, powers and duties of such Units or other Partnership securities. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement to the contrary, any reference to “Units” shall include the Class A Units and any other Classes that may be established in accordance with this Agreement. All Units of a particular Class shall have identical rights in all respects as all other Units of such Class, except in each case as otherwise specified in this Agreement.
