Related to Exchange Procedures Withholding

• Exchange Procedures As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time of the Merger, the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of record of Certificates immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger whose shares were converted into shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.01, (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent, and which shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for certificates representing shares of Parent Common Stock. Upon surrender of a Certificate for cancellation to the Exchange Agent together with such letter of transmittal, duly executed, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a certificate representing that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock which such holder has the right to receive in respect of the Certificate surrendered pursuant to the provisions of this Article II (after taking into account all shares of Company Common Stock (including Company Common Stock issued upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock) then held by such holder), and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock which is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, a certificate representing the proper number of shares of Parent Common Stock may be issued to a transferee if the Certificate is presented to the Exchange Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and by evidence that any applicable stock transfer taxes have been paid. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.02 each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time of the Merger to represent only the Parent Common Stock into which the shares of Company Common Stock (including Company Common Stock issued upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock) represented by such Certificate have been converted as provided in this Article II and the right to receive upon such surrender cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock as contemplated by this Section 2.02.
