realize such value, which could include, for example (i) a sale of assets
or shares of the Company to third parties which could be at a per share
price in excess of the price being paid for the stock in the Company
allegedly indirectly owned by the Seller, (ii) a purchase of the Company's
shares in the public market or in private negotiated transactions, which
could be at a per share price in excess of the price being paid for the
stock in the Company allegedly indirectly owned by the Seller, (iii) an
offering of common or preferred stock or other securities of the Company,
(iv) a stock or cash dividend by the Company to shareholders of record as
of a date later than the Effective Date, (v) financings of or acquisitions
