Non-Exercise of Rights 33.1. Either Party’s failure to seek redress for violations, or to insist upon strict performance, of any condition or provision of this Agreement, or its failure to exercise any or part of any of right or remedy to which that Party is entitled under this Agreement, shall not constitute an implied waiver thereof.
Limitations on Exercise of Option a. The exercise of this Option will be contingent upon receipt from the Optionee (or the purchaser acting under Section 7 below) of the full Exercise Price of such Option Shares. Payment may be made in cash or by a cashier’s or certified check. However, in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors or the Committee, and subject to such terms and conditions as the Board of Directors or Committee deems appropriate in its discretion, payment of the Exercise Price or a portion thereof may be made by surrender to the Company of previously acquired shares of Common Stock, such shares to be credited against the Exercise Price based upon the Fair Market Value thereof on the date of exercise, or by a combination of the above. No Option Shares will be issued until full payment therefor has been made and the Optionee has executed any and all agreements that the Company may require the Optionee to execute.
b. The issuance of Option Shares upon the exercise of this Option shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations. If, in the opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company or a Committee of the Board of Directors, (i) the listing, registration, or qualification of the Option Shares upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, (ii) the consent or approval of any regulatory body, or (iii) an agreement of the Optionee with respect to the disposition of the Option Shares, is necessary or desirable as a condition to the issuance or sale of the Option Shares, this Option shall not be exercised and/or the Option Shares shall not be sold unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, consent, approval or agreement is effected or obtained in form satisfactory to the Board of Directors or the Committee.
Exercise of SAR In order to exercise the SAR, the SAR Holder shall submit to the Company an instrument specifying the whole number of Shares in respect of which the SAR is being exercised. Shares will be issued accordingly by the Company within 30 days. The payment upon a SAR exercise shall be solely the number of whole Shares calculated in paragraph (a) above. Fractional Shares shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share with no cash consideration being paid upon exercise. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any Shares hereunder if the issuance of such Shares would violate the provision of any applicable law, in which event the Company shall, as soon as practicable, take whatever action it reasonably can so that such Shares may be issued without resulting in such violations of law.
Exercise of SARs Upon exercise of a SAR, the Participant (or any person having the right to exercise the SAR after his or her death) shall receive from the Company (a) Shares, (b) cash or (c) a combination of Shares and cash, as the Committee shall determine. The amount of cash and/or the Fair Market Value of Shares received upon exercise of SARs shall, in the aggregate, be equal to the amount by which the Fair Market Value (on the date of surrender) of the Shares subject to the SARs exceeds the Exercise Price.
