Placement of Orders The Adviser shall arrange for the placing of all orders for the purchase and sale of securities for a Fund’s account with brokers or dealers selected by the Adviser. In the selection of such brokers or dealers and the placing of such orders, the Adviser is directed at all times to seek for each Fund the most favorable execution and net price available under the circumstances. It is also understood that it is desirable for the Funds that the Adviser have access to brokerage and research services provided by brokers who may execute brokerage transactions at a higher cost to the Funds than may result when allocating brokerage to other brokers, consistent with section 28(e) of the 1934 Act and any Commission staff interpretations thereof. Therefore, the Adviser is authorized to place orders for the purchase and sale of securities for a Fund with such brokers, subject to review by the Board from time to time with respect to the extent and continuation of this practice. It is understood that the services provided by such brokers may be useful to the Adviser in connection with its or its affiliates’ services to other clients.
Execution of Orders All orders for the creation or redemption of Creation Units shall be handled in accordance with the terms of the Prospectus, and the procedures described in Attachments A and A-1 to this Agreement. In the event the procedures include the use of recorded telephone lines, the Participant hereby consents to such use. The Trust reserves the right to issue additional or other procedures relating to the manner of creating or redeeming Creation Units, and the Participant, and the Distributor agree to comply with such procedures as may be issued from time to time, upon reasonable notice thereof. The Participant understands and acknowledges that the Transfer Agent will not effect a creation or redemption until it has received confirmation of receipt of the Participant’s incoming security transfer and/or cash through the Trust’s Clearing Process, Fed Book-Entry System, Euroclear and/or DTC in the case of a creation, and through the Trust’s Clearing Process, Euroclear and/or DTC in the case of a redemption. With respect to any order for the creation or redemption of Creation Units, the Participant acknowledges and agrees on behalf of itself and any party for which it is acting (regardless of its capacity) to return to the Trust any dividend, distribution or other corporate action paid to it or to the party for which it is acting in respect of any Deposit Security that is transferred to the Participant or any party for which it is acting that, based on the valuation of such Deposit Security at the time of transfer should have been paid to the Trust. With respect to any orders for the creation or redemption of Creation Units, the Participant also acknowledges and agrees on behalf of itself and any party for which it is acting (regardless of its capacity) that the Transfer Agent is entitled to reduce the amount of money or other proceeds due to the Participant or any party for which it is acting that, based on the valuation of such Deposit Security at the time of transfer, should be paid to the Fund. With respect to any order for the creation or redemption of Creation Units, the Trust acknowledges and agrees to return to the Participant or any party for which it is acting any dividend, distribution or other corporate action paid to the Trust in respect of any Deposit Security that is transferred to the Trust that, based on the valuation of such Deposit Security at the time of transfer, should have been paid to the Participant or any party for which it is acting.
Country of Origin 3.3.1 For purposes of this clause, “Origin” means the place where the Goods were mined, grown or produced.
Submission of Orders 14.1 The Dealer Manager may authorize certain Dealers that have “net capital,” as defined in the applicable federal securities regulations, of $250,000 or more, to instruct their customers to make their checks for Shares subscribed for payable directly to the Dealer. In such case, the Dealer will collect the proceeds of the subscribers’ checks and issue a check made payable to the order of the Company, as described above, for the aggregate amount of the subscription proceeds or wire such funds to the Company. The Dealer Manager and any Dealer receiving a check that does not conform to the foregoing instructions shall promptly return such check directly to such subscriber. Checks received by the Dealer Manager or Dealer that conform to the foregoing instructions shall be transmitted for deposit pursuant to one of the methods described in this Section 14 and in accordance with the requirements set forth in Rule 15c2-4 promulgated under the Exchange Act.
14.2 It is understood and agreed that the Company reserves the right in its sole discretion to refuse to sell any of the Shares to any person.
14.3 In connection with DRS Settlement (as defined below), those persons who purchase Shares will be instructed by the Dealer Manager or the Dealer to make their checks payable to “UMB Bank, National Association, as escrow agent for Gladstone Land Corporation” (the “Escrow Agent”). Each person desiring to purchase Shares through the Dealer Manager, or any other Dealer participating in the Offering, will be required to complete and execute the subscription documents described in the Prospectus, if any. In connection with DRS Settlement, when a Dealer’s internal supervisory procedures are conducted at the site at which the subscription agreement and check were initially received by such Dealer from the subscriber, the Dealer shall transmit the subscription agreement and check to the Escrow Agent by the end of the next business day following receipt of the check and subscription agreement. When, pursuant to a Dealer’s internal supervisory procedures, such Dealer’s final internal supervisory procedures are conducted at a different location (the “Final Review Office”), such Dealer shall transmit the check and subscription agreement to the Final Review Office by the end of the next business day following such Dealer’s receipt of the subscription agreement and check. The Final Review Office will, by the end of the next business day following its receipt of the subscription agreement and check, forward both the subscription agreement and check to the Escrow Agent. If any subscription agreement solicited by a Dealer participating in this Offering is rejected by the Dealer Manager or the Company, then the subscription agreement and check will be returned to the rejected subscriber within thirty (30) days from the date of rejection.
14.4 The Company will sell the Shares using two closing services provided by the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”). The first service is DTC closing (“DTC Settlement”), and the second service is Direct Registration Service (“DRS Settlement”). A sale of Shares shall be deemed by the Company to be completed if and only if (i) the Company has received payment of the full purchase price of purchased Shares, from an investor who satisfies the minimum purchase requirements set forth in the Prospectus as determined by the Dealer Manager or other Dealer participating in this Offering, as applicable, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (ii) the Company has accepted such subscription, and, if using DRS Settlement, a properly completed and executed subscription agreement, and (iii) such investor has been admitted as a stockholder of the Company. In addition, no sale of Shares shall be completed until after the date on which the subscriber receives a copy of the Prospectus. The Dealer Manager hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company, in its sole and absolute discretion, may accept or reject any subscription, in whole or in part, for any reason whatsoever or no reason, and no dealer manager fee in the amount of up to 3.0% (as described in Section 5.1) will be paid to the Dealer Manager with respect to that portion of any subscription which is rejected.
Acceptance of Orders Orders received by the Representative from the Selected Dealer will be accepted only at the price, in the amounts and on the terms which are set forth in the Company's current Prospectus, subject to allotment in the Representative's uncontrolled discretion. The Representative reserves the right to reject any orders, in whole or in part.
