NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which consideration are hereby acknowledged, Holder agrees as follows:
Section 1. Sale Restriction.
(a) Holder hereby agrees that during the Restriction Period, the Holder will not offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, lend, transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents or any options, warrants or other rights to purchase any other security of the Company which Holder owns or has a right to acquire as of the date hereof (collectively, the “Lockup Shares”), other than in connection with an offer made to all shareholders of the Company in connection with merger, consolidation or similar transaction involving the Company. Holder further agrees that the Company is authorized to and the Company agrees to place “stop orders” on its books to prevent any transfer of the Lockup Shares held by Holder in violation of this Agreement. The Company agrees not to allow to occur any transaction inconsistent with this Agreement.

(b) Any subsequent issuance to and/or acquisition by Holder of Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents or any options, warrants or other rights to purchase any other security of the Company will be deemed to be “Lockup Shares” and will be subject to the provisions of this Agreement.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions on transfer, the Holder may, at any time and from time to time during the Restriction Period, transfer all or any portion of the Lockup Shares (i) as a bona fide gift or transfer by will or intestacy, (ii) to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the Holder, provided that any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (iii) any other Person that directly or indirectly, whether through one or more intermediaries or otherwise, controls or is controlled by or is under common control with the Holder; provided, that, in the case of any transfer described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii), each donee or transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and conditions contained herein in the same manner as such terms and conditions apply to the undersigned. For purposes hereof, “immediate family” means any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin and “control” (including with correlative meanings “controlled by” and “under common control with”) of a Person means the power, direct or indirect, to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such Person, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.

No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right.
