entitled to have the legend removed from the certificate representing the
Covered Shares.

 

5.                                       Restricted Period.  The Covered Shares
shall be subject to forfeiture pursuant to Section 6 for a period (the

will forfeit any and all rights with respect to such unvested Covered Shares and
the Company shall have the right to cancel any such certificates evidencing such
Covered Shares.
