In connection with the transfer of any Restricted Securities (other than a transfer described above), the holder thereof shall deliver written notice to the Company describing in reasonable detail the transfer or proposed transfer, together with an opinion of counsel which (to the Company's reasonable satisfaction) is knowledgeable in securities law matters to the effect that such transfer of Restricted Securities may be effected without registration of such Restricted Securities under the Securities Act.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not in any event be required to keep any such registration or qualification in effect for a period in excess of two years from the date on which the Purchaser is first free to sell such Shares.
