Securities To Be Sold 2.8.2.1. The Public Securities have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance and when issued and paid for in accordance with this Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable; the holders thereof are not and will not be subject to personal liability by reason of being such holders; the Public Securities are not and will not be subject to the preemptive rights of any holders of any security of the Company or similar contractual rights granted by the Company; and all corporate action required to be taken for the authorization, issuance and sale of the Public Securities has been duly and validly taken. The Public Securities conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof contained in the Registration Statement, the Statutory Prospectus and the Prospectus, as the case may be.
ASSETS TO BE ACQUIRED The assets of the Selling Fund to be acquired by the Acquiring Fund shall consist of all property, including, without limitation, all cash, securities, commodities, interests in futures and dividends or interest receivables, that is owned by the Selling Fund and any deferred or prepaid expenses shown as an asset on the books of the Selling Fund on the Closing Date. The Selling Fund has provided the Acquiring Fund with its most recent unaudited financial statements, which contain a list of all of the Selling Fund’s assets as of the date thereof. The Selling Fund hereby represents that as of the date of the execution of this Agreement there have been no changes in its financial position as reflected in said financial statements other than those occurring in the ordinary course of its business in connection with the purchase and sale of securities and the payment of its normal operating expenses. The Selling Fund reserves the right to sell any of such securities, but will not, without the prior written approval of the Acquiring Fund, acquire any additional securities other than securities of the type in which the Acquiring Fund is permitted to invest. The Acquiring Fund will, within a reasonable time prior to the Closing Date, furnish the Selling Fund with a list of the securities, if any, on the Selling Fund’s list referred to in the second sentence of this paragraph that do not conform to the Acquiring Fund’s investment objectives, policies, and restrictions. The Selling Fund will, within a reasonable period of time (not less than 30 days) prior to the Closing Date, furnish the Acquiring Fund with a list of its portfolio securities and other investments. In the event that the Selling Fund holds any investments that the Acquiring Fund may not hold, the Selling Fund, if requested by the Acquiring Fund, will dispose of such securities prior to the Closing Date. In addition, if it is determined that the Selling Fund and the Acquiring Fund portfolios, when aggregated, would contain investments exceeding certain percentage limitations imposed upon the Acquiring Fund with respect to such investments, the Selling Fund if requested by the Acquiring Fund will dispose of a sufficient amount of such investments as may be necessary to avoid violating such limitations as of the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein will require the Selling Fund to dispose of any investments or securities if, in the reasonable judgment of the Selling Fund, such disposition would violate the Selling Fund’s fiduciary duty to its shareholders.
Securities to be Secured in Certain Events If, as a result of any amalgamation or consolidation of the Company with or merger of the Company with any other Person, or upon any conveyance, lease or transfer of the property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other Person, any properties or assets of the Company would become subject to a mortgage, pledge, charge, security interest or other encumbrance securing Debt, then unless such mortgage, pledge, charge, security interest or other encumbrance could be created without equally and ratably securing the Securities under Section 1006, the Company or such successor Person, as the case may be, prior to or simultaneously with such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, conveyance, lease or transfer, will, with respect to such properties or assets, secure the Securities Outstanding hereunder (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other Debt of the Company now existing or hereafter created which is not subordinate to the Securities) equally and ratably with (or prior to) all such Debt which upon such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, conveyance, lease or transfer is to become secured as to such properties or assets, or will cause such Securities to be so secured; provided that for the purpose of providing such equal and rateable or prior security, the principal amount of Original Issue Discount Securities shall mean that amount which would at the time of making such effective provision be due and payable pursuant to Section 502 and the terms of such Original Issue Discount Securities upon a declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof, and the extent of such equal and ratable security shall be adjusted, to the extent permitted by law, as and when said amount changes over time pursuant to the terms of such Original Issue Discount Securities. ARTICLE NINE
SHARES TO BE ISSUED The number of full and fractional Acquiring Fund Shares to be issued in exchange for the Selling Fund’s assets shall be determined by multiplying the outstanding shares of the Selling Fund by the ratio computed by dividing the net asset value per share of the Selling Fund by the net asset value per share of the Acquiring Fund on the Valuation Date, determined in accordance with in paragraph 2.2.
