SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF, BENEFICIALLY OR ON THE RECORDS OF THE CORPORATION, UNLESS THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND QUALIFIED UNDER APPLICABLE BLUE SKY LAWS, OR AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION AND QUALIFICATION IS AVAILABLE.”
The Seller shall, upon the request of any holder of a certificate bearing the foregoing legend and the surrender of such certificate, issue a new certificate without such legend if (i) the security evidenced by such certificate has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and qualified under any applicable state securities law and sold by the holder thereof in accordance with such registration and qualification or (ii) such holder shall have delivered to the Seller a legal opinion reasonably satisfactory to The Seller to the effect that the restrictions set forth herein are no longer required or necessary under the Securities Act or any applicable state law.
