Such notice shall specify the identity of the proposed transferee, the cash price offered for the Offered Shares by the proposed transferee and the other terms and conditions of the proposed transfer. The date such notice is mailed shall be hereinafter referred to as the "notice date" and the record holder of the Offered Shares shall be hereinafter referred to as the "Offeror."

This option shall be exercisable by the Company by mailing (by registered or certified mail) written notice of exercise to the Offeror prior to the end of said thirty (30) days. (3) The price at which the Company may purchase the Offered Shares pursuant to the exercise of such option shall be the cash price offered for the Offered Shares by the proposed transferee (as set forth in the notice required under subsection (a)(1) of this Section 5.8). The Company's notice of exercise of such option shall be accompanied by full payment for the Offered Shares and, upon such payment by the Company, the Company shall acquire full right, title and interest to all of the Offered Shares. (4) If, and only if, the option given pursuant to subsection (a)(2) of this Section 5.8 is not exercised, the transfer proposed in the notice given pursuant to subsection (a)(1) of this Section 5.8 may take place; provided, however, that such transfer must, in all respects, be exactly as proposed in said notice except that such transfer may not take place either before the tenth (10th) calendar day after the expiration of said thirty-day option exercise period or after the ninetieth (90th) calendar day after the expiration of said thirty-day option exercise period, and if such transfer has not taken place prior to said ninetieth (90th) day, such transfer may not take place without once again complying with subsection (a) of this Section 5.8.
