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.
Additional Partnership Interests If the Partnership issues Partnership Interests in accordance with Section 4.2 or 4.3, the distribution priorities set forth in Section 5.1 shall be amended, as necessary, to reflect the distribution priority of such Partnership Interests and corresponding amendments shall be made to the provisions of Exhibit B.
Membership Units The Company is initially organized with One (1) class of Membership Interests, designated in Units, which Units are initially the only class of equity in the Company. The Units shall have no par value and shall be of a single class with identical rights. The Company shall have a first lien on the Units of any Member for any debt or liability owed by such Member to the Company. Additional and different classes of Membership Interests represented by different Units may be created and issued to new or existing Members on such terms and conditions as the Governors may determine. Such additional and different classes may have different rights, powers and preferences (including, without limitation, voting rights and distribution preferences), which may be superior to those of existing Members. Members shall have no preemptive rights to acquire additional or newly created Units.
Partnership Interest Except as provided in this Agreement and the Transferor Partnership Agreement, no right (contingent or otherwise) to purchase or acquire the Transferor Partnership Interests held by such Transferor Partner is authorized or outstanding. Except as disclosed on Schedule 5.34, such Transferor Partner owns and holds the Transferor Partnership Interests set forth opposite its name on Schedule I beneficially and of record free and clear of any liens, pledges and encumbrances of any kind whatsoever and free of any rights of assignment of any third party. Prior to the Closing, all liens disclosed on Schedule 5.34 will be paid in full. Upon the Closing, good, valid, marketable, and indefeasible title to such Transferor Partnership Interests shall be vested in the BRI Partnership free and clear of any lien, claim, charge, pledge, encumbrance, limitation, agreement or instrument whatsoever. The provisions of this Section 5.34 shall survive the Closing indefinitely.
Transfer of General Partner’s Partnership Interest A. Except in connection with a Termination Transaction permitted under Section 11.2.B, the General Partner shall not withdraw from the Partnership and shall not transfer all or any portion of its interest in the Partnership (whether by sale, statutory merger or consolidation, liquidation or otherwise), other than to an Affiliate, without the Consent of the Limited Partners, which may be given or withheld by each Limited Partner in its sole and absolute discretion, and only upon the admission of a successor General Partner pursuant to Section 12.1. Upon any transfer of a Partnership Interest in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.2, the transferee shall become a substitute General Partner for all purposes herein, and shall be vested with the powers and rights of the transferor General Partner, and shall be liable for all obligations and responsible for all duties of the General Partner, once such transferee has executed such instruments as may be necessary to effectuate such admission and to confirm the agreement of such transferee to be bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement with respect to the Partnership Interest so acquired. It is a condition to any transfer otherwise permitted hereunder that the transferee assumes, by operation of law or express agreement, all of the obligations of the transferor General Partner under this Agreement with respect to such transferred Partnership Interest, and no such transfer (other than pursuant to a statutory merger or consolidation wherein all obligations and liabilities of the transferor General Partner are assumed by a successor corporation by operation of law) shall relieve the transferor General Partner of its obligations under this Agreement without the Consent of the Limited Partners, in their reasonable discretion. In the event the General Partner withdraws from the Partnership, in violation of this Agreement or otherwise, or otherwise dissolves or terminates, or upon the Incapacity of the General Partner, all of the remaining Partners may elect to continue the Partnership business by selecting a substitute General Partner in accordance with the Act.
Issuances of Additional Partnership Interests (a) The Partnership may issue additional Partnership Interests (other than General Partner Interests) and Derivative Partnership Interests for any Partnership purpose at any time and from time to time to such Persons for such consideration and on such terms and conditions as the General Partner shall determine, all without the approval of any Limited Partners.
Certificates Describing Partnership Units At the request of a Limited Partner, the General Partner, at its option, may issue a certificate summarizing the terms of such Limited Partner’s interest in the Partnership, including the number of Partnership Units owned and the Percentage Interest represented by such Partnership Units as of the date of such certificate. Any such certificate (i) shall be in form and substance as approved by the General Partner, (ii) shall not be negotiable and (iii) shall bear a legend to the following effect: This certificate is not negotiable. The Partnership Units represented by this certificate are governed by and transferable only in accordance with the provisions of the Second Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement of Strategic Storage Operating Partnership VI, L.P., as amended from time to time.
OP Units Any portion of the Consideration payable hereunder in the form of common units of limited partnership interests of the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) shall be registered in the name of Contributor. OP Units will not be delivered to Contributor unless Section 2.2(j) hereof is true and correct as of the Closing Date. No fractional OP Units will be issued and OP Units will be rounded to the nearest whole number. The Consideration payable to Contributor, whether in cash, in OP Units or a combination thereof, may be reduced by the amount the Operating Partnership reasonably determines must be withheld for tax purposes. The rights and obligations of holders of OP Units as of the Closing will be as set forth in the First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Operating Partnership (the “Partnership Agreement”), the form of which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to Amendment No. 1 to the REIT’s Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-231677), which the REIT filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 31, 2019 (the “IPO Registration Statement”). Although initially the OP Units will not be certificated and the Operating Partnership does not currently expect the OP Units will ever be certificated, any certificates, subsequently issued evidencing the OP Units will bear appropriate legends (i) indicating that the issuance of the OP Units has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”) and that the OP Units may not be transferred absent registration under the Securities Act or an exemption from the registration requirements, (ii) indicating that the Partnership Agreement will restrict the transfer of the OP Units and (iii) describing the ownership limitations and transfer restrictions imposed by the charter of the REIT with respect to shares of the REIT’s capital stock.
Transfers of Partnership Interests Except as the Partners may otherwise agree from time to time, a Partner may not Transfer all or any part of its Partnership Interest without the Consent of each other Partner, which Consent may be withheld in the sole discretion of each such other Partner.
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).
