Restrictions on Transfer of Shares No shares acquired upon exercise of the Option may be sold, exchanged, transferred (including, without limitation, any transfer to a nominee or agent of the Optionee), assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of, including by operation of law, in any manner which violates any of the provisions of this Option Agreement and, except pursuant to an Ownership Change Event, until the date on which such shares become Vested Shares, and any such attempted disposition shall be void. The Company shall not be required (a) to transfer on its books any shares which will have been transferred in violation of any of the provisions set forth in this Option Agreement or (b) to treat as owner of such shares or to accord the right to vote as such owner or to pay dividends to any transferee to whom such shares will have been so transferred.
Rights of First Offer (a) At any time or from time to time prior to a Qualifying Public Equity Offering, in the event that (x) at any time following the first anniversary of the date hereof (provided, however, that, prior to the second anniversary of the date hereof, such Rollover Investor does not in the good faith judgment of the Company jeopardize the "recapitalization" accounting treatment afforded the Company in the Recapitalization Merger), a Rollover Investor desires to Transfer, or (y) at any time following the date hereof, a HIP Co-Investor desires to Transfer, all or part of its Common Stock ("Offered Shares"), other than pursuant to Section 3.02(a), 3.02(d), 4.02 or 4.03 of this Agreement, such Rollover Investor or HIP Co-Investor (individually, an "Investor") shall give prompt written notice (an "Investor's Notice") of its desire to sell the Offered Shares to the Company and Sponsor. The Investor's Notice shall identify (i) the number of Offered Shares and (ii) all other material terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer including the purchase price and the form of the consideration. (b) The Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase all, but not less than all, the Offered Shares (the "First Option") on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Investor's Notice, which option shall be exercised by delivering to such Investor irrevocable written notice of its commitment to purchase the Offered Shares within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the Investor's Notice (the "Company Option Period"). Failure by the Company to give such notice within such fifteen (15) business day period shall be deemed an election by the Company not to purchase the Offered Shares. (c) In the event that the Company decides not to purchase the Offered Shares pursuant to Section 4.01(b), then Sponsor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase all, but not less than all, the Offered Shares (the "Second Option") on the same terms and conditions as set forth in the Investor's Notice, which option shall be exercised by delivering to such Investor irrevocable written notice of its commitment to purchase the Offered Shares within ten (10) business days after the termination of the Company Option Period (the "Sponsor Option Period"); provided that Sponsor may, at its sole option, assign its rights to purchase an Investor's Offered Shares pursuant to this Section 4.01 to another Shareholder or a Permitted Transferee of Sponsor (such person an "Assignee"); provided that if the Assignee is a HIP Co-Investor, each HIP Co-Investor will be able to participate in such assignment on a pro rata basis. Failure by Sponsor or its Assignee to give such notice within such ten (10) business day period shall be deemed an election by Sponsor or its Assignee not to purchase the Offered Shares. (d) Delivery of written notice by the Company, Sponsor or its Assignee accepting the First Option or the Second Option, as the case may be, shall constitute a contract between the Company, Sponsor or its Assignee, on the one hand, and such Investor on the other hand, for the purchase and sale of the Offered Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in the Investor's Notice. The purchase of any shares pursuant to the exercise of the First Option or the Second Option, as the case may be, shall be completed not later than forty-five (45) days following receipt of the Investor's Notice with respect to the Offered Shares, subject to receipt of any required material third-party or governmental approvals, compliance with applicable laws and the absence of any injunction or similar legal order preventing such transaction (collectively, the "Conditions") in which case the purchase of the Offered Shares shall be delayed pending the satisfaction of the Conditions up to an additional thirty (30) days. As a condition to entering into the contract referred to above, the Company, Sponsor and its Assignee will agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy the Conditions as soon as possible. In the event that neither the First Option nor the Second Option is exercised, the Investor shall have the right for a period of seventy-five (75) days after the termination of the Sponsor Option Period to Transfer (the "Investor Sale") the Offered Shares at a price not less than ninety percent (90%) of the price contained in, and otherwise on terms and conditions no less favorable to such Investor than those set forth in, the Investor's Notice, except that the purchase of the Offered Shares may be delayed up to an additional thirty (30) days pending satisfaction of the Conditions; provided that the Transferee agrees to execute a Joinder Agreement. If the Investor Sale is not consummated pursuant to the terms of the immediately preceding sentence, the Investor will not effect Transfer of any of the Offered Shares without commencing de novo the procedures set forth in this Section 4.01.

(e) No Transfer by a Limited Partner of its Partnership Units, in whole or in part, may be made to any Person if (i) in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, the transfer would result in the Partnership’s being treated as an association taxable as a corporation (other than a qualified REIT subsidiary within the meaning of Section 856(i) of the Code), (ii) in the opinion of legal counsel for the Partnership, it would adversely affect the ability of the General Partner to continue to qualify as a REIT or subject the General Partner to any additional taxes under Section 857 or Section 4981 of the Code, or (iii) such transfer is effectuated through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof)” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code.

(g) Any Transfer in contravention of any of the provisions of this Article 9 shall be void and ineffectual and shall not be binding upon, or recognized by, the Partnership.

If in the future the Subscriber decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Shares, such Shares may be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only pursuant to: (i) registration under the Securities Act, or (ii) an available exemption from registration. Subscriber agrees that if any transfer of its Shares or any interest therein is proposed to be made, as a condition precedent to any such transfer, Subscriber may be required to deliver to the Company an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company. Absent registration or an exemption, the Subscriber agrees not to resell the Shares. Subscriber further acknowledges that because the Company is a shell company, Rule 144 may not be available to the Subscriber for the resale of the Shares until one year following consummation of the initial business combination of the Company, despite technical compliance with the requirements of Rule 144 and the release or waiver of any contractual transfer restrictions.
