Exercise of the transferred Option by a Permitted Transferee shall be subject to compliance with all applicable federal, state and foreign securities laws; however, the Company shall have no obligation to register with any federal, state or foreign securities commission or agency such transferred Option or any shares that may be issuable upon the exercise of the transferred Option by the Permitted Transferee.

Transferability of the Option. 5.1 Except as provided in Section 5.2, the Option may be exercised during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant or the Participant’s guardian or legal representative and shall not be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or garnishment by creditors of the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary, except transfer by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Following the death of the Participant, the Option, to the extent provided in Section 7, may be exercised by the Participant’s legal representative or by any person empowered to do so under the deceased Participant’s will or under the then applicable laws of descent and distribution. 5.2 With the consent of the Committee and subject to any conditions or restrictions as the Committee may impose, in its discretion, the Participant may transfer during the Participant’s lifetime and prior to the Participant’s termination of Service all or any portion of the Option to one or more of such persons (each a “Permitted Transferee”) as permitted in accordance with the applicable limitations, if any, described in the General Instructions to the Form S-8 Registration Statement under the Securities Act and, if the Grant Notice designates this Option as an Incentive Stock Option, only as permitted by applicable regulations under Section 421 of the Code in a manner that does not disqualify this Option as an Incentive Stock OptionAct. No transfer or purported transfer of the Option shall be effective unless and until: (i) the Participant has delivered to the Company a written request describing the terms and conditions of the proposed transfer in such form as the Company may require, (ii) the Participant has made adequate provision, in the sole determination of the Company, for satisfaction of the tax withholding obligations of the Participating Company Group and its Affiliates as provided in Section 4.4 that may arise with respect to the transferred portion of the Option, (iii) the Committee has approved the requested transfer, and (iv) the Participant has delivered to the Company written documentation of the transfer in such form as the Company may require. With respect to the transferred portion of the Option, all of the terms and conditions of the Grant Notice, this Option Agreement and the Plan shall apply to the Permitted Transferee and not to the original Participant, except for (i) the Participant’s rendering of Continuous Service, (ii) provision for the Participating Company Group’s applicable tax withholding obligations, if any, and (iii) any subsequent transfer of the Option by the Permitted Transferee, which shall be prohibited except as provided in Section 5.1, unless otherwise permitted by the Committee, in its sole discretion. The Company shall have no obligation to notify a Permitted Transferee of any expiration, termination, lapse or acceleration of the transferred Option, including, without limitation, an early termination of the transferred Option resulting from the termination of Continuous Service of the original Participant. Exercise of the transferred Option by a Permitted Transferee shall be subject to compliance with all applicable federal, state and foreign securities laws; however, the Company shall have no obligation to register with any federal, state or foreign securities commission or agency such transferred Option or any shares that may be issuable upon the exercise of the transferred Option by the Permitted Transferee.
