RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER

(a) If any Transfer is made or attempted contrary to the provisions of this Section 3 (a “Prohibited Transfer”), such purported Transfer shall be void ab initio; the Company and the other parties hereto shall have, in addition to any other legal or equitable remedies which they may have, the right to enforce the provisions of this Agreement by actions for specific performance (to the extent permitted by law); and the Company shall have the right to refuse to recognize any transferee of a Prohibited Transfer as one of its Holders for any purpose.
(b) Each Holder shall be permitted to Transfer Company Securities (i) to the Company or any Person designated by the Company upon the Company’s repurchase of any unvested Company Securities pursuant to the terms of any restricted stock purchase agreement or similar agreement approved by the Board, (ii) in the case of the Holders who are entities, to Affiliates of such Holders, (iii) in the case of the Holders who are individuals, to Family Members of such Holders (such Persons set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), are each referred to as a “Permitted Transferee” and collectively the “Permitted Transferees”); provided, that in each case the Permitted Transferee(s) shall hold such Company Securities subject to the same restrictions that are applicable hereunder to the transferor and shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement prior to any such Transfer.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3, no Holder shall be permitted at any time to Transfer to any Person any Company Securities if: (i) such Transfer would not be in compliance with applicable Securities Laws, (ii) such Transfer constitutes an event of default under the terms of any indebtedness outstanding or other material contractual obligations of the Company, (iii) such Company Securities remain subject to any applicable vesting or similar restrictions, or (iv) such Transfer would be to any competitor of the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates), except in connection with a Sale of the Company or with the prior written approval of the Board.
(d) The existence or creation of a spouse’s interest in the Company Securities by virtue of applicable state laws shall not be a Prohibited Transfer under this Agreement as long as the spouse complies with and continues to comply with all the terms of and obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, if a Holder’s marriage is terminated by divorce, and such Holder does not succeed to any interest the former spouse or deceased spouse might have in his or her Company Securities, or if a creditor of a spouse or any other party succeeds to such spouse’s interest, or if such spouse is determined to have rights beyond what this Agreement provides, then each of those events shall constitute a Prohibited Transfer under this Agreement and no Holder shall be permitted at any time to make such a Transfer. In the event that this provision is held by a court of law to be unenforceable as to the treatment of such a Transfer as a Prohibited Transfer, then immediately and without any further action, the other Holders and the Company shall have the option to purchase such Company Securities so transferred or attempted to be transferred at fair market value as determined by the parties thereto; provided, however, that if the parties cannot agree upon the fair market value, then the fair market value shall be determined by an independent third party mutually agreeable to the parties.

If any Holder or any Permitted Transferee, other than Tawfik (the “Transferring Holder") shall propose to Transfer Company Securities to any Person (a “Proposed Transferee”) other than a Permitted Transferee, such Transfer shall be conditioned upon the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:
(a) Such Transferring Holder shall first offer to sell to the Company or any Persons designated by the Company as the purchaser hereunder (the Company or such designees being referred to as the “Designated Purchaser") the Company Securities that the Transferring Holder desires to sell (the “Offered Securities”), at the same price and on the terms identical in all material respects to those terms that the Transferring Holder intends to sell the Offered Securities to the Proposed Transferee; provided, however, that the Designated Purchaser shall have no right to acquire the Offered Securities unless the Designated Purchaser acquires all of the Offered Securities, except if the Transferring Holder shall have consented to the purchase of less than all of the Offered Securities. If such proposed Transfer involves consideration other than cash, any Person having rights under this Section 3.2 shall have the right to elect to pay, in lieu of such non-cash consideration, cash in an amount equal to the fair market value of such non-cash consideration. Such offer shall be made by a written notice (the “Notice of Proposed Transfer”) delivered to the Company and each Holder not less than ninety (90) days prior to the proposed Transfer. Such Notice of Proposed Transfer shall set forth the identity of the Proposed Transferee, the Offered Securities proposed to be sold, and the terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer, including price per share and any other material terms and conditions or material facts relating to the proposed sale and shall contain a copy of the written offer from the Proposed Transferee.

(b) If the Designated Purchaser does not accept the offer made by the Transferring Holder with respect to all of the Offered Securities within the time periods provided in Section 3.2(a), then, the Transferring Holder shall have the right for a period of ninety (90) days following the expiration of the Designated Purchaser’s right to elect to purchase Offered Securities in accordance with this Section 3.2, to sell all of the Offered Securities, but at not less than the price, and upon terms not more favorable to the Proposed Transferee, than were contained in the Notice of Proposed Transfer.

If after complying with Section 3.2, any Transferring Holder(s) shall propose to Transfer to any Person(s) any Company Securities constituting more than fifty percent (50%) of the then issued and outstanding Capital Securities of the Company, such proposed sale shall be conditioned upon receipt by each Holder other than the Transferring Holder(s) of a binding written offer (the “Tag Offer”) (conditioned solely upon the consummation of such proposed sale) by such Proposed Transferee(s) to purchase, at the same price and upon terms and conditions identical in all material respects as are applicable to the Transferring Holder(s), a fraction of the Company Securities held by such Holder, the numerator of which fraction equals the number of shares of Common Equivalents represented by the Company Securities that the Transferring Holder(s) intends to sell, and the denominator of which is the total number of Common Equivalents held by the Transferring Holder(s). If the Proposed Transferee(s) states that Proposed Transferee(s) is or are unwilling to purchase, in the aggregate, more than a specified number or amount of Company Securities, then the Company Securities being transferred by the Transferring Holder(s) and those Holders who have elected to accept the Tag Offer shall be reduced pro rata in accordance with their relative holdings of Common Equivalents. If no Holders accept the Tag Offer within sixty (60) days of receipt of the Tag Offer, the Transferring Holder(s) shall have the right for a period of ninety (90) days from the date of the Tag Offer to sell all of the Offered Securities, but at not less than the price, and upon terms not more favorable, than the Tag Offer. Any Company Securities not sold by the end of this ninety (90) day period shall continue to be subject to the requirements of this Section 4.2.
