For purposes of this paragraph, “immediate family” shall mean spouse, lineal descendant, father, mother, brother or sister of the transferor.

 

3.                                       In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, if I am a partnership, the partnership may transfer any Restricted Securities to a partner of such partnership or a retired partner of such partnership who retires after the date hereof, or to the estate of any such partner or retired partner, and any partner who is an individual may transfer Restricted Securities by gift, will or intestate succession to his or her immediate family (as defined above) or ancestors.
