Disclaimer of Shareholder Liability MassMutual and the Sub-Adviser understand that the obligations of the Trust under this Sub-Advisory Agreement are not binding upon any Trustee or shareholder of the Trust personally, but bind only the Trust and the Trust’s property. MassMutual and the Sub-Adviser represent that each has notice of the provisions of the Trust Documents disclaiming shareholder and Trustee liability for acts or obligations of the Trust.
TRUST AND SHAREHOLDER LIABILITY The Manager and Adviser are hereby expressly put on notice of the limitation of shareholder liability as set forth in the Agreement and Declaration of Trust of the Trust and agree that obligations assumed by the Trust pursuant to this Agreement shall be limited in all cases to the Trust and its assets, and if the liability relates to one or more series, the obligations hereunder shall be limited to the respective assets of the Fund. The Manager and Adviser further agree that they shall not seek satisfaction of any such obligation from the shareholders or any individual shareholder of the Fund, nor from the Trustees or any individual Trustee of the Trust.
LIMITATION OF SHAREHOLDER LIABILITY 9.01 Notice is hereby given that this Agreement is being executed by the Fund by a duly authorized officer thereof acting as such and not individually. The obligations of this Agreement are not binding upon any of the trustees, officers, shareholders or the investment advisor of the Fund individually but are binding only upon the assets and property belonging to the Fund, on its own behalf or on behalf of a Portfolio, for the benefit of which the trustees or directors have caused this Agreement to be executed.
Indemnification by Shareholder Shareholder shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, indemnify and hold harmless INC, its subsidiaries, each of their respective directors, trustees, officers, employees, representatives and agents, in their capacity as such and each Person, if any, who controls INC within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, and the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “INC Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Covered Liabilities suffered, directly or indirectly, by any INC Indemnified Party by reason of or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission contained or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement under which the sale of Registrable Securities owned by Shareholder was registered under the Securities Act (or any amendment thereto), or any Prospectus, preliminary Prospectus, or free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) related to such Registration Statement or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to INC by Shareholder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that (i) the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 4.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such Covered Liability if such settlement is effected without the consent of Shareholder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and (ii) in no event shall the total amounts payable in indemnity by Shareholder under this Section 4.2 exceed the net proceeds received by Shareholder in the registered offering out of which such Covered Liability arises. The indemnity in this Section 4.2 shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any INC Indemnified Person. For the avoidance of doubt, Shareholder is not an “INC Indemnified Party.”
Stockholder Rights The holder of this option shall not have any stockholder rights with respect to the Option Shares until such person shall have exercised the option, paid the Exercise Price and become a holder of record of the purchased shares.
Limitations on Rights Associated with Units The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Corporation, no dividend rights (except as expressly provided in Section 5(b) with respect to Dividend Equivalent Rights) and no voting rights, with respect to the Stock Units and any shares of Common Stock underlying or issuable in respect of such Stock Units until such shares of Common Stock are actually issued to and held of record by the Participant. No adjustments will be made for dividends or other rights of a holder for which the record date is prior to the date of issuance of the stock certificate.
No Rights as Stockholder; No Voting Rights The Employee shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to any shares covered by the Options until the exercise of the Options and delivery of the shares. No adjustment shall be made for dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to the delivery of the shares. Any shares delivered in respect of the Options shall be subject to any Subscription Agreement, which the Company may require the Employee to accept and agree to as a condition of the issuance and delivery of those shares.
Agreement to Vote the Subject Shares Stockholder, in his capacity as such, hereby agrees that, during the period commencing on the date hereof and continuing until the termination of this Agreement (such period, the "Voting Period"), at any meeting (or any adjournment or postponement thereof) of the holders of any class or classes of the capital stock of Cima, however called, or in connection with any written consent of the holders of any class or classes of the capital stock of Cima, Stockholder shall vote (or cause to be voted) the Subject Shares (x) in favor of adoption of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the Cima Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (and any actions required in furtherance thereof), (y) against any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that would result in a breach in any respect of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of Cima or any of its subsidiaries under the Merger Agreement or of Stockholder under this Agreement, and (z) except as otherwise agreed to in writing in advance by AAI, against (i) any Acquisition Proposal; (ii) any change in the Persons who constitute the board of directors of Cima that is not approved in advance by at least a majority of the Persons who were directors of Cima as of the date of this Agreement (or their successors who were so approved); and (iii) any other action or proposal involving Cima or any of its subsidiaries that is intended, or could reasonably be expected, to prevent, materially impede, or materially impair or delay consummation of the Cima Merger or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Any such vote shall be cast or consent shall be given in accordance with such procedures relating thereto as shall ensure that it is duly counted for purposes of determining that a quorum is present and for purposes of recording the results of such vote or consent. Stockholder agrees not to enter into any agreement, letter of intent, agreement in principle or understanding with any Person that violates or conflicts with or could reasonably be expected to violate or conflict with the provisions and agreements contained in this Agreement or the Merger Agreement.
Right to Acquire Limited Partner Interests (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if at any time the General Partner and its Affiliates hold more than 80% of the total Limited Partner Interests of any class then Outstanding, the General Partner shall then have the right, which right it may assign and transfer in whole or in part to the Partnership or any Affiliate of the General Partner, exercisable in its sole discretion, to purchase all, but not less than all, of such Limited Partner Interests of such class then Outstanding held by Persons other than the General Partner and its Affiliates, at the greater of (x) the Current Market Price as of the date three days prior to the date that the notice described in Section 15.1(b) is mailed and (y) the highest price paid by the General Partner or any of its Affiliates for any such Limited Partner Interest of such class purchased during the 90-day period preceding the date that the notice described in Section 15.1(b) is mailed.
Transfer Books; No Further Ownership Rights in Company Stock The Merger Consideration paid in respect of shares of Company Common Stock upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates in accordance with the terms of this Article II shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Common Stock previously represented by such Certificates, and at the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and thereafter there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates that evidenced ownership of shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares of Company Common Stock, except as otherwise provided for herein or by applicable Law. Subject to the last sentence of Section 2.2(e), if, at any time after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.
