and this Agreement. I further agree that the Company may enter into an agreement with a third
party whereby such third party shall hold the Shares in escrow, subject to the terms of the Plan
and this Agreement. I further agree to execute such documents as may be necessary to facilitate
the transfer of the Shares to such third party.



5. Dividend and Voting Rights. Director shall have the right to vote any Shares

greater number of shares or combined into a smaller number of shares, or in the event of a

be a party to a merger, consolidation or capital reorganization, there shall be substituted for the
Shares then subject to the restrictions contained in this Agreement such amount and kind of
securities as are issued in such subdivision, combination, reclassification, merger, consolidation

for investment and they may not be sold or otherwise
transferred by any person, including a pledgee, unless (1)
either (a) a Registration Statement with respect to such

counsel satisfactory to it that an exemption from registration
under such Act is then available, and (2) there shall have
