           4.2 The execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement, the issuance of the Shares, and the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder, have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of the Company and will not (i) violate any provision of law, statute, rule or regulation or any order of any court or other agency of government, (ii) conflict with or violate the Certificate of Incorporation (after amendment to authorize the additional shares of non-voting common stock) or By-Laws of the Company, in each case as amended, or (iii) violate, conflict with or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under any indenture, mortgage, lease, license, agreement or other contract or instrument or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance of any nature upon the properties or assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, in each case if such violation, conflict, default, lien, charge or encumbrance would have a material adverse effect on the Company.
