Effect of Exercise of Warrants (1) Upon compliance by the Warrantholder with the provisions of Section 3.1, the Warrant Shares subscribed for shall be deemed to have been issued and the person to whom such Warrant Shares are to be issued shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Warrant Shares on the Exercise Date unless the transfer registers of the Company for the Common Shares shall be closed on such date, in which case the Warrant Shares subscribed for shall be deemed to have been issued and such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Warrant Shares on the date on which such transfer registers are reopened.
(2) The Warrant Agent shall as soon as practicable account to the Company with respect to Warrants exercised, and shall as soon as practicable forward to the Company (or into an account or accounts of the Company with the bank or trust company designated by the Company for that purpose), all monies received by the Warrant Agent on the subscription of Warrant Shares through the exercise of Warrants. All such monies and any securities or other instruments, from time to time received by the Warrant Agent, shall be received in trust for the Warrantholders and the Company as their interests may appear and shall be segregated and kept apart by the Warrant Agent.
(3) Within five Business Days following the due exercise of a Warrant pursuant to Section 3.1, the Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to issue and the Warrant Agent to deliver, within such five Business Day period, to CDS through the Book-Entry Only System the Warrant Shares to which the exercising Warrantholder is entitled pursuant to the exercise or mail to the person in whose name the Warrant Shares so subscribed for are to be issued, as specified in the exercise form completed on the Warrant Certificate, at the address specified in such exercise form, a certificate or certificates for the Warrant Shares to which the Warrantholder is entitled or, if so specified in writing by the holder, cause to be delivered to such person or persons at the office of the Warrant Agent where the Warrant Certificate was surrendered, a certificate or certificates for the appropriate number of Warrant Shares subscribed for, or any other appropriate evidence of the issuance of Warrant Shares to such person or persons in respect of Warrant Shares issued under the Book-Entry Only System and, if applicable, shall cause the Warrant Agent to mail a Warrant Certificate representing any Warrants not then exercised.
Effect of Exercise Exercise by Landlord of any remedies hereunder or otherwise available shall not be deemed to be an acceptance of surrender of the Premises and/or a termination of this Lease by Landlord, it being understood that such surrender and/or termination can be effected only by the express written agreement of Landlord and Tenant. Any law, usage, or custom to the contrary notwithstanding, Landlord shall have the right at all times to enforce the provisions of this Lease in strict accordance with the terms hereof; and the failure of Landlord at any time to enforce its rights under this Lease strictly in accordance with same shall not be construed as having created a custom in any way or manner contrary to the specific terms, provisions, and covenants of this Lease or as having modified the same and shall not be deemed a waiver of Landlord’s right to enforce one or more of its rights in connection with any subsequent default. A receipt by Landlord of Rent or other payment with knowledge of the breach of any covenant hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such breach, and no waiver by Landlord of any provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been made unless expressed in writing and signed by Landlord. To the greatest extent permitted by law, Tenant waives the service of notice of Landlord’s intention to re-enter, re-take or otherwise obtain possession of the Premises as provided in any statute, or to institute legal proceedings to that end, and also waives all right of redemption in case Tenant shall be dispossessed by a judgment or by warrant of any court or judge. Any reletting of the Premises or any portion thereof shall be on such terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may determine. Landlord shall not be liable for, nor shall Tenant’s obligations hereunder be diminished because of, Landlord’s failure to relet the Premises or collect rent due in respect of such reletting or otherwise to mitigate any damages arising by reason of Tenant’s Default.
Manner of Exercise of Option (a) To the extent that the right to exercise the Option has accrued and is in effect, the Option may be exercised in full or in part by giving written notice to the Company stating the number of Shares as to which the Option is being exercised and accompanied by payment in full for such Shares. No partial exercise may be made for less than one hundred (100) full Shares of Common Stock. Payment shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Upon such exercise, delivery of a certificate for paid-up, non- assessable Shares shall be made at the principal office of the Company to the person exercising the Option, not less than thirty (30) and not more than ninety (90) days from the date of receipt of the notice by the Company.
(b) The Company shall at all times during the term of the Option reserve and keep available such number of Shares of its Common Stock as will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Option.
Reservation of Stock, Etc., Issuable on Exercise of Warrant The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of this Warrant, shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of this Warrant.
Grant and Exercise of Option Provided that (i) no Default has occurred and is then continuing (ii) the creditworthiness of Tenant is then reasonably acceptable to Landlord and (iii) Tenant originally named herein or a Permitted Transferee remains in possession of the Leased Premises throughout the term immediately preceding the Extension Term (as defined below), Tenant shall have the option to extend the Lease Term for two (2) additional periods of five (5) years each (the "Extension Term(s)"). Each Extension Term shall be upon the same terms and conditions contained in the Lease except (x) this provision giving two (2) extension options shall be amended to reflect the remaining options to extend, if any, and (y) any improvement allowances or other concessions applicable to the Leased Premises under the Lease shall not apply to the Extension Term, and (z) the Minimum Annual Rent shall be adjusted as set forth below (the "Rent Adjustment"). Tenant shall exercise each option by delivering to Landlord, no later than twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the preceding term, written notice of Tenant's desire to extend the Lease Term. Tenant's failure to timely exercise such option shall be deemed a waiver of such option and any succeeding option. Landlord shall notify Tenant of the amount of the Rent Adjustment no later than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the commencement of the Extension Term. Tenant shall be deemed to have accepted the Rent Adjustment if it fails to deliver to Landlord a written objection thereto within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof. If Tenant exercises its option to extend in accordance with the terms hereof, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to the Lease reflecting the terms and conditions of the Extension Term within thirty (30) days after Tenant's acceptance (or deemed acceptance) of the Rent Adjustment.
Notice of Exercise of Option This Option may be exercised by the ---------------------------- Optionee, or by the Optionee's administrators, executors or personal representatives, by a written notice (in substantially the form of the Notice of Exercise attached hereto as Schedule B) signed by the Optionee, or by such administrators, executors or personal representatives, and delivered or mailed to the Company as specified in Section 14 hereof to the attention of the President or such other officer as the Company may designate. Any such notice shall (a) specify the number of shares of Stock which the Optionee or the Optionee's administrators, executors or personal representatives, as the case may be, then elects to purchase hereunder, (b) contain such information as may be reasonably required pursuant to Section 12 hereof, and (c) be accompanied by (i) a certified or cashier's check payable to the Company in payment of the total Exercise Price applicable to such shares as provided herein, (ii) shares of Stock owned by the Optionee and duly endorsed or accompanied by stock transfer powers having a Fair Market Value equal to the total Exercise Price applicable to such shares purchased hereunder, or (iii) a certified or cashier's check accompanied by the number of shares of Stock whose Fair Market Value when added to the amount of the check equals the total Exercise Price applicable to such shares purchased hereunder. Upon receipt of any such notice and accompanying payment, and subject to the terms hereof, the Company agrees to issue to the Optionee or the Optionee's administrators, executors or personal representatives, as the case may be, stock certificates for the number of shares specified in such notice registered in the name of the person exercising this Option.
Method of Exercise of Option The Option is exercisable by notice and payment to the Company in accordance with the procedure prescribed herein. Each such notice will:
(a) State the election to exercise the Option and the number of shares in respect of which it is being exercised;
(b) Contain a representation and agreement as to investment intent, if required by counsel to the Company with respect to such Shares, in form satisfactory to counsel for the Company; and
(c) Be signed by the person entitled to exercise the Option and, if the option is being exercised by any person other than the Director, be accompanied by proof, satisfactory to counsel for the Company, of the right of that person to exercise the Option. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company will specify, by written notice to the person exercising the option, a date and time (the "Closing Date") and place for payment of the full purchase price of such Shares. The Closing Date will be not more than fifteen days from the date the notice of exercise is received by the Company unless another date is agreed upon by the Company and the person exercising the Option or is required upon advice of counsel for the Company in order to meet the requirements of Section 10 hereof. Payment of the purchase price will be made at the place specified by the Company on or before the Closing Date by delivering to the Company a certified or bank cashier's check payable to the order of the Company. The Option will be deemed to have been exercised with respect to any particular shares of Common Stock if, and only if, the preceding provisions of this Section 9 and the provisions of Section 10 hereof shall have been complied with, in which event the option will be deemed to have been exercised on the Closing Date. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, any notice of exercise given pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9 will be void and of no effect if all the preceding provisions of this Section 9 and the provisions of Section 10 have not been complied with. The certificates for shares of Common Stock as to which the option shall be exercised will be registered in the name of the person exercising the option (or, if the option is exercised by the Director and if the Director so requests in the notice exercising the Option, will be registered in the name of the Director and another person jointly, with right of survivorship) and will be delivered on the Closing Date to the person exercising the Option at the place specified for the closing, but only upon compliance with all of the provisions of this Agreement. If the Director fails to accept delivery of and pay for all or any part of the number of shares specified in the notice upon tender or delivery thereof on the Closing Date, his right to exercise the Option with respect to those undelivered shares may be terminated in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company. The Option may be exercised only with respect to full shares.

(iii) Up to sixty percent (60%) of such Option Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share and less any shares previously purchased pursuant to this Option that vest pursuant to this Section 3.b) may be purchased at any time after three (3) years from the Grant Date and prior to the termination of this Option;

Neither the Optionee nor the Optionee’s legal representatives, legatees or distributees, as the case may be, will be, or will be deemed to be, a holder of any Option Shares for any purpose unless and until certificates for such Option Shares are issued (or are reflected upon the official records of the Company) to the Optionee or the Optionee’s legal representatives, legatees or distributees, under the terms of the Option Plan.
Reservation of Stock Issuable on Exercise of Warrant The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery on the exercise of the Warrant, shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities) from time to time issuable on the exercise of the Warrant.
Duration and Exercise of Warrant (a) Subject to Section 1.2, this Warrant may be exercised to purchase (i) 50% of the underlying shares from and after 9:00 A.M. New York City time on January 24, 2002 (the "First Exercise Date") and (ii) 50% of the underlying shares on January 24, 2003 (the "Second Exercise Date"). Each of the First Exercise Date and the Second Exercise Date are hereinafter referred to from time to time, as applicable, as the "Exercise Date" and collectively from time to time as the "Exercise Dates"). The Company shall give prompt notice to the Warrantholder of the Exercise Date in accordance with Section 7.6.

(b) The rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the Warrantholder of record, in whole, or from time to time in part, by (a) surrender of this Warrant, accompanied by either the Exercise Form annexed hereto, or if the Warrantholder decides to exercise the Warrant pursuant to the broker-assisted cashless exercise program instituted by the Company, an applicable exercise form provided by the Company (the "Exercise Form") duly executed by the Warrantholder of record and specifying the number of Warrant Shares to be purchased, to the Company at the office of the Company located at 0000 XxXxxxxx Xxxxxx, Suite 1000, Dallas, Texas 75204 (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the Warrantholder at the address of such Warrantholder appearing on the books of the Company) during normal business hours on any day (a "Business Day") other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which the New York Stock Exchange is authorized to close or on which the Company is otherwise closed for business (a "Nonbusiness Day") on or after 9:00 A.M. New York City time on the applicable Exercise Date but not later than 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Expiration Date (or 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the next succeeding Business Day, if the Expiration Date is a Nonbusiness Day), (b) delivery of payment to the Company in cash or by certified or official bank check in New York Clearing House Funds, of the Exercise Price for the number of Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Form (such payment may be made by the Warrantholder directly or by a designated broker pursuant to the broker-assisted cashless exercise program instituted by the Company) and (c) such documentation as to the identity and authority of the Warrantholder as the Company may reasonably request. Such Warrant Shares shall be deemed by the Company to be issued to the Warrantholder as the record holder of such Warrant Shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for the Warrant Shares as aforesaid. Certificates for the Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Form shall be delivered to the Warrantholder (or designated broker, as the case may be) as promptly as practicable, and in any event within 10 business days, thereafter. The stock certificates so delivered shall be in denominations of at least 1,000 shares each or such other denomination as may be specified by the Warrantholder and agreed upon by the Company, and shall be issued in the name of the Warrantholder or such other name as shall be designated in the Exercise Form. If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificates for the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Warrantholder (or designated broker, as the case may be) a new Warrant evidencing the rights to purchase the remaining Warrant Shares, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant. No adjustments or payments shall be made on or in respect of Warrant Shares issuable on the exercise of this Warrant for any cash dividends paid or payable to holders of record of Common Stock prior to the date as of which the Warrantholder shall be deemed to be the record holder of such Warrant Shares.

The interest on such loan shall be the Company's cost of money plus an additional 0.5% at the time the loan is made and such loan shall be made with recourse against the Warrantholder. The Compensation Committee shall have the full authority to determine any other terms and provisions of such a loan.
