The Company (or its nominee) shall pay for such Employee Units to be purchased by delivery, at the sole option of the Company, of either (i) a check or wire transfer of immediately available funds or (ii) an unsecured promissory note in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Board and Employee; provided that such promissory note shall (A) accrue interest at the then Applicable Federal Rate as published by the Internal Revenue Service, (B) have a stated maturity of five years, (C) provide that the principal and all accrued interest thereon shall be due and payable in arrears at maturity, (D) allow for voluntary prepayments of principal and interest without penalty or premium and (E) be subordinated to any indebtedness for borrowed money of the Company and its Subsidiaries. In connection with the purchase of Employee Units hereunder, the Company shall be entitled to receive customary representations and warranties from the sellers regarding such sale of units (including representations and warranties regarding good title to such units, free and clear of any liens or encumbrances).

The Optional Securities; Option Closing Date In addition, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, and upon the terms but subject to the conditions herein set forth, the Company hereby grants an option to the several Underwriters to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to an aggregate of 3,000,000 Units from the Company at the purchase price per Unit to be paid by the Underwriters for the Firm Securities. The option granted hereunder may be exercised at any time and from time to time in whole or in part upon notice by the Representative to the Company, which notice may be given at any time within 45 days from the date of this Agreement. Such notice shall set forth (i) the aggregate number of Optional Securities as to which the Underwriters are exercising the option and (ii) the time, date and place at which the Optional Securities will be delivered (which time and date may be simultaneous with, but not earlier than, the First Closing Date; and in the event that such time and date are simultaneous with the First Closing Date, the term “First Closing Date” shall refer to the time and date of delivery of the Firm Securities and such Optional Securities). Any such time and date of delivery, if subsequent to the First Closing Date, is called an “Option Closing Date,” and shall be determined by the Representative and shall not be earlier than two or later than five full business days after delivery of such notice of exercise. If any Optional Securities are to be purchased, each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase the number of Optional Securities (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as the Representative may determine) that bears the same proportion to the total number of Optional Securities to be purchased as the number of Firm Securities set forth on Schedule A opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Firm Securities. The Representative may cancel the option at any time prior to its expiration by giving written notice of such cancellation to the Company.
The Optional Shares; Option Closing Date In addition, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements herein contained, and upon the terms but subject to the conditions herein set forth, the Company hereby grants an option to the several Underwriters to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to an aggregate of [•] Optional Shares from the Company at the purchase price per share to be paid by the Underwriters for the Firm Shares. The option granted hereunder may be exercised at any time and from time to time in whole or in part upon notice by the Representatives to the Company, which notice may be given at any time within 30 days from the date of this Agreement. Such notice shall set forth (i) the aggregate number of Optional Shares as to which the Underwriters are exercising the option and (ii) the time, date and place at which the Optional Shares will be delivered (which time and date may be simultaneous with, but not earlier than, the First Closing Date; and in the event that such time and date are simultaneous with the First Closing Date, the term “First Closing Date” shall refer to the time and date of delivery of the Firm Shares and such Optional Shares). Any such time and date of delivery, if subsequent to the First Closing Date, is called an “Option Closing Date,” and shall be determined by the Representatives and shall not be earlier than two or later than five full business days after delivery of such notice of exercise. If any Optional Shares are to be purchased, each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase the number of Optional Shares (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as the Representatives may determine) that bears the same proportion to the total number of Optional Shares to be purchased as the number of Firm Shares set forth on Schedule A opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Firm Shares. The Representatives may cancel the option at any time prior to its expiration by giving written notice of such cancellation to the Company.
Closing of Company Transfer Books At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of Company shall be closed, and no transfer of Shares shall thereafter be made.

For purposes of this Agreement, “business day” means any day except Saturday, Sunday and any day which is a federal legal holiday or a day on which banking institutions in the State of New York are authorized or required by law or other governmental action to close.
Amendment of Option This Agreement and the terms of the Option may be amended by the Board or the Committee at any time (i) if the Board or the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that amendment is necessary or advisable due to any addition to or change in the Code or in the regulations issued thereunder, or any federal or state securities law or other law or regulation, which change occurs after the Date of Grant and by its terms applies to the Option; or (ii) other than in the circumstances described in clause (i), with the consent of WGNB and the Grantee.

As soon as practicable after the effective exercise of the Option, Xxxxxx will deliver to the person exercising this Option one or more duly issued stock certificates evidencing such ownership, together with an assignment separate from the certificate duly endorsed by him evidencing the transfer of the Option Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised. Upon receipt of the foregoing, RDO will deliver to the transferee one or more duly issued stock certificates bearing such transfer restrictions as may then be appropriate based upon advice of RDO's legal counsel.
