transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 

Section 4.03 Remaining Certification and Disclosure Requirements. The 

Company acknowledges and agrees to comply with the certification and disclosure requirements 

set forth in the Compensation Regulations, including without limitation those submissions that

vested may not become transferable, or payable in the case of a restricted stock unit, at any time 

earlier than as permitted under the schedule set forth in the definition of long-term restricted

original liquidation amount with respect to 9,000 shares of the Company’s Fixed Rate 

Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series D and 6,000 shares of the Company’s Fixed Rate Cumulative

that any long-term restricted stock awarded by the Company is not permitted to become 

transferable, or payable in the case of a restricted stock unit, under the schedule set forth in the

Company shall cancel such long term restricted stock and/or restricted stock units.

executive officers of the Company.

provisions of this Agreement. or affecting the validity, legality or enforceability of any of the 

terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction, and if any provision of this 

Agreement is determined to be so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted 

to be only so broad as is enforceable, in all cases so long as neither the economic nor legal 

substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is affected in any manner materially adverse 

to any party or its shareholders. Upon any such determination, the parties shall negotiate in good 

faith in an effort to agree upon a suitable and equitable substitute provision to effect the original 

intent of the parties.
