"THE SHARES EVIDENCED HEREBY WERE ISSUED IN TRANSACTIONS EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), AND MAY ONLY BE TRANSFERRED (I) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR (II) IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM, OR NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE ACT, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES."

Until so surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, each Certificate shall represent after the Effective Time for all purposes only the right to receive such Merger Consideration upon surrendering the Certificate and a fully completed Letter of Transmittal of the holder of such Certificate. To the extent a holder of shares of Company Stock fails to deliver to the Exchange Agent a complete Form W-9 or W-8, as applicable, such holder shall be required, as a condition to receiving the Merger Consideration, to deposit with the Exchange Agent an amount equal in cash to the withholding liability applicable to the Merger Consideration payable to such holder, which amount shall be determined by Parent.

(d)               After the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of Company Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.  If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Article 2; provided that in no event shall the Merger Consideration exceed 10,562,895 shares of Parent Common Stock (reflecting the Reverse Split).
 
(e)               Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 2.03(a) that remains unclaimed by the holders of Company Stock six months after the Effective Time shall be returned to Parent, upon demand, and any such holder who has not exchanged such shares for the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.03 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to Parent for payment of the Merger Consideration in respect of such Company Stock.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall not be liable to any holder of Company Stock for any amounts properly paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws.  Any amounts remaining unclaimed by holders of Company Stock two years after the Effective Time (or such earlier date immediately prior to such time when the amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority) shall become, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the property of Parent free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.
 
(f)               No dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock constituting part of the Merger Consideration shall be paid to the holder of any Certificates not surrendered until such Certificates are surrendered or transferred, as the case may be, together with all other required documents as provided in this Section 2.03.  Following such surrender or transfer, there shall be paid, without interest, to the Person in whose name the shares of Parent Common Stock have been registered, (i) at the time of such surrender or transfer, the amount of all dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time previously paid with respect to such shares, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions payable with respect to such shares with a record date after the Effective Time and prior to surrender or transfer, and with a payment date subsequent to surrender or transfer.

Section 2.05              Withholding Rights.
 
Each of the Exchange Agent, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any holder of Company Stock pursuant to this Article 2 such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of Tax law or any other Applicable Law.
 
Section 2.06              Lost Certificates.
 
If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as the Exchange Agent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Exchange Agent, Parent or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent shall pay, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the Company Stock represented by such Certificate, as contemplated by this Article 2.
