Common use of Transfer to Agent of Prohibited Shares; Sale by Agent; Payment of Proceeds Clause in Contracts

Transfer to Agent of Prohibited Shares; Sale by Agent; Payment of Proceeds. On demand by the Company (which demand must be made within 30 days of the time Company learns of the transfer of Prohibited Shares), a Purported Acquiror must transfer any certificate or other evidence of ownership of the Prohibited Shares within the Purported Acquiror's possession or control, together with any dividends or other distributions that were received by the Purported Acquiror from Company with respect to the Prohibited Shares ("Prohibited Distributions"), to an agent designated by Company (the "Agent"). The Agent will sell the Prohibited Shares in an arms-length transaction (over a public exchange, if reasonable possible), and the Purported Acquiror will receive an amount of sales proceeds not in excess of the price paid or consideration surrendered by the Purported Acquiror for the Prohibited Shares (or the fair market value of the Prohibited Shares at the time of an attempted transfer to the Purported Acquiror by gift, inheritance, or a similar transfer). If the Purported Acquiror has resold the Prohibited Shares prior to receiving the Company's demand to surrender the Prohibited Shares to the Agent, the Purported Acquiror shall be deemed to have sold the Prohibited Shares as agent for the Initial Transferor and shall be required to transfer to the Agent any Prohibited Distributions and the proceeds of such sale, except to the extent that the Agent grants written permission to the Purported Acquiror to retain a portion of such sales proceeds not exceeding the amount that the Purported Acquiror would have received from the Agent if the Agent rather than the Purported Acquiror had resold the Prohibited Shares. If the Initial Transferor can be identified, the Agent will pay to the Initial Transferor any sales proceeds in excess of those due to the Purported Acquiror, together with any amounts received by the Agent from the Purported Acquiror that are attributable to Prohibited Distributions. If the Initial Transferor cannot be identified within 90 days, the Agent may pay any amounts due to the Initial Transferor into a court or governmental agency, if applicable law permits, and otherwise must transfer such amounts to a charity designated by Company. In no event shall amounts due to the Initial Transferor pursuant to Article inure to the benefit of Company or the Agent, but such amounts may be used to cover expenses incurred by Agent in attempting to identify the initial Transferor. If the Purported Acquiror fails to surrender the Prohibited Shares within the next 30 business days from demand by Company, then the Company will institute legal proceedings to compel the surrender.
