Underwriting Requirements (a) If, pursuant to Subsection 2.1, the Initiating Holders intend to distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, they shall so advise the Company as a part of their request made pursuant to Subsection 2.1, and the Company shall include such information in the Demand Notice. The underwriter(s) will be selected by the Company and shall be reasonably acceptable to a majority in interest of the Initiating Holders. In such event, the right of any Holder to include such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company as provided in Subsection 2.4(e)) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter(s) selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Subsection 2.3, if the managing underwriter(s) advise(s) the Initiating Holders in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, then the Initiating Holders shall so advise all Holders of Registrable Securities that otherwise would be underwritten pursuant hereto, and the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be allocated among such Holders of Registrable Securities, including the Initiating Holders, in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the number of Registrable Securities owned by each Holder or in such other proportion as shall mutually be agreed to by all such selling Holders; provided, however, that the number of Registrable Securities held by the Holders to be included in such underwriting shall not be reduced unless all other securities are first entirely excluded from the underwriting. To facilitate the allocation of shares in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to any Holder to the nearest one hundred (100) shares.
Underwriting Agreements If requested by the Underwriters for any Underwritten Offering requested by holders pursuant to Sections 2.1 or 2.3, the Company and the holders of Registrable Securities to be included therein shall enter into an underwriting agreement with such Underwriters, such agreement to be reasonably satisfactory in substance and form to the Company, the holders of a majority-in-interest of each class of the Registrable Securities to be included in such Underwritten Offering and the Underwriters, and to contain such terms and conditions as are generally prevailing in agreements of that type, including, without limitation, indemnities no less favorable to the recipient thereof than those provided in Section 2.4. The holders of any Registrable Securities to be included in any Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section 2.2 shall enter into such an underwriting agreement at the request of the Company. All of the representations and warranties and the other agreements by and on the part of the Company to and for the benefit of the Underwriters included in any such underwriting agreement shall also be made to and for the benefit of such holders, and any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of the Underwriters under such underwriting agreement shall be conditions precedent to the obligations of such holders. No holder shall be required in any such underwriting agreement to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the Underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such holder, such holder’s Registrable Securities, such holder’s intended method of distribution and any other representations required by law.
Underwriting If a registration statement under which the Company gives notice under this Section 3.4 is for an underwritten offering, then the Company shall so advise the Holders of Registrable Securities. In such event, the right of any such Holder’s Registrable Securities to be included in a registration pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter or underwriters selected by the Company for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the managing underwriter(s) determine(s) in good faith that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, then the managing underwriter(s) may exclude shares from the registration and the underwriting, and the number of shares that may be included in the registration and the underwriting shall be allocated, first to the Company, and second, to each of the Holders requesting inclusion of their Registrable Securities in such registration statement on a pro-rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities then held by each such Holder; provided, however, that the right of the underwriter(s) to exclude shares (including Registrable Securities) from the registration and underwriting as described above shall be restricted so that (i) the number of Registrable Securities included in any such registration is not reduced below twenty-five percent (25%) of the aggregate number of Registrable Securities for which inclusion has been requested, even if this will cause the Company to reduce the number of shares it wishes to offer; and (ii) all shares that are not Registrable Securities and are held by any other Person, including any Person who is an employee, officer or director of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company shall first be excluded from such registration and underwriting before any Registrable Securities are so excluded. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom by delivering a written notice to the Company and the underwriter(s) at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the effective date of the registration statement. Any Registrable Securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be excluded and withdrawn from the registration. For any Holder that is a partnership, the Holder and the partners and retired partners of such Holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing Persons, and for any Holder that is a corporation, the Holder and all corporations that are affiliates of such Holder, shall be deemed to be a single “Holder,” and any pro-rata reduction with respect to such “Holder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such “Holder,” as defined in this sentence.
Other Underwriting Agreements The Company is not a party to any agreement with an agent or underwriter for any other “at the market” or continuous equity transaction.
Standby Underwritings You authorize the Manager in its discretion, at any time on, or from time to time prior to, the expiration of the conversion right of convertible securities identified in the applicable AAU in the case of securities called for redemption, or the expiration of rights to acquire securities in the case of rights offerings, for which, in either case, standby underwriting arrangements have been made: (i) to purchase convertible securities or rights to acquire Securities for your account, in the open market or otherwise, on such terms as the Manager determines, and to convert convertible securities or exercise rights so purchased; and (ii) to offer and sell the underlying common stock or depositary shares for your account, in the open market or otherwise, for long or short account (for purposes of such commitment, such common stock or depositary shares being considered the equivalent of convertible securities or rights), on such terms consistent with the terms of the Offering set forth in the Prospectus or Offering Circular as the Manager determines. On demand, you will take up and pay for any securities so purchased for your account or you will deliver to the Manager against payment any securities so sold, as the case may be. During such period, you may offer and sell the underlying common stock or depositary shares, but only at prices set by the Manager from time to time, and any such sales will be subject to the Manager’s right to sell to you the underlying common stock or depositary shares as above provided and to the Manager’s right to reserve your securities purchased, received, or to be received upon conversion. You agree not to otherwise bid for, purchase, or attempt to induce others to purchase or sell, directly or indirectly, any convertible securities or rights or underlying common stock or depositary shares, provided, however, that no Underwriter will be prohibited from: (a) selling underlying common stock owned beneficially by such Underwriter on the day the convertible securities were first called for redemption, (b) converting convertible securities owned beneficially by such Underwriter on such date or selling underlying common stock issued upon conversion of convertible securities so owned, (c) exercising rights owned beneficially by such Underwriter on the record date for a rights offering, or selling the underlying common stock or depositary shares issued upon exercise of rights so owned, or (d) purchasing or selling convertible securities or rights or underlying common stock or depositary shares as a broker pursuant to unsolicited orders.
Underwriters The copies of the Registration Statement and each amendment thereto furnished to the U.S. Underwriters will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to XXXXX, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T.
Underwriting Fee The Underwriting Fee payable by BIP to the Underwriters pursuant to the Offering shall be calculated based on all of the Units purchased hereunder. The Underwriting Fee payable by BIP to the Underwriters pursuant to the Over-Allotment Option shall be calculated based on all of the Additional Units purchased hereunder.
Underwriting Agreement This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company.
Underwriting Procedures If the Initiating Holders so elect, the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration shall be in the form of a firm commitment underwritten offering and the managing underwriter or underwriters selected for such offering shall be the Approved Underwriter (as hereinafter defined) selected in accordance with Section 3(f). In connection with any Demand Registration under this Section 3 involving an underwriting, none of the Registrable Securities held by any of the Insurance Partners Stockholders (other than the Initiating Holders) or shares of Common Stock held by any Other Rightholders making a request for inclusion thereof pursuant to Section 3(a) shall be included in such underwriting unless such Insurance Partners Stockholders or Other Rightholders, as the case may be, accept the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon by the Company, the Initiating Holders and the Approved Underwriter, and then only in such quantity as will not, in the opinion of the Approved Underwriter, jeopardize the success of such offering. If the Approved Underwriter advises the Company in writing that in its opinion the aggregate amount of Common Stock requested to be included in such offering is sufficiently large to have a material adverse effect on the success of such offering, then the Company shall include in such registration only the aggregate amount of Common Stock that in the opinion of the Approved Underwriter may be sold without any such material adverse effect and shall reduce, as to the Initiating Holders, the Insurance Partners Stockholders (other than the Initiating Holders) and the Other Rightholders as a group, the amount of Common Stock to be included in such registration, pro rata within such group based on the number of Registrable Securities and other shares of Common Stock included in the request for registration pursuant to Section 3(a).
Underwriter Agreements The Company is not a party to any agreement with an agent or underwriter for any other “at-the-market” or continuous equity transaction.
