Securities Law Representations The Purchaser acknowledges that the Restricted Shares are not being registered under the Securities Act, based, in part, in reliance upon an exemption from registration under Rule 701 promulgated under the Securities Act, and a comparable exemption from qualification under applicable state securities laws, as each may be amended from time to time. The Purchaser, by executing this Agreement, hereby makes the following representations to the Company and acknowledges that the Company’s reliance on federal and state securities law exemptions from registration and qualification is predicated, in substantial part, upon the accuracy of these representations: • The Purchaser is acquiring the Restricted Shares solely for the Purchaser’s own account, for investment purposes only, and not with a view or an intent to sell, or to offer for resale in connection with any unregistered distribution, all or any portion of the shares within the meaning of the Securities Act and/or any applicable state securities laws. • The Purchaser is an “accredited investor”, as that term is defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2) or (3) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. • The Purchaser has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the Restricted Shares. The Purchaser has been furnished with, and/or has access to, such information as the Purchaser considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to purchase the Restricted Shares. However, in evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Restricted Shares, the Purchaser has and will rely only upon the advice of the Purchaser’s own legal counsel, tax advisors, and/or investment advisors. • The Purchaser is aware that any value the Restricted Shares may have depends on their vesting and certain other factors, and that any investment in common shares of a closely held corporation such as the Company is non-marketable, non-transferable and could acquire capital to be invested for an indefinite period of time, possibly without return, and at substantial risk of loss. • The Purchaser understands that the Restricted Shares will be characterized as “restricted securities” under the federal securities laws, and that, under such laws and applicable regulations, such securities may be resold without registration under the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances, including in accordance with the conditions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as presently in effect. The Purchaser acknowledges receiving a copy of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as presently in effect, and represents that the Purchaser is familiar with such rule, and understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act and the applicable state securities law. • The Purchaser has read and understands the restrictions, limitations and the Company’s rights set forth in the Management Investor Rights Agreement, the Plan and this Agreement that will be imposed on the Restricted Shares (including those restrictions and limitations which will continue after the Shares have vested). The Purchaser acknowledges that to the extent the Purchaser is not a party to the Management Investor Rights Agreement at the time that the Purchaser purchases the Restricted Shares, such purchase shall be treated for all purposes as effecting the Purchaser’s simultaneous execution of the Management Investor Rights Agreement and the Purchaser shall be bound thereby. • The Purchaser has not relied upon any oral representation made to the Purchaser relating to the Restricted Shares or upon information presented in any promotional meeting or material relating to the Restricted Shares. • The Purchaser understands and acknowledges that (a) any certificate evidencing the Restricted Shares (or evidencing any other securities issued with respect thereto pursuant to any stock split, stock dividend, merger or other form of reorganization or recapitalization) when issued shall bear any legends which may be required by applicable federal and state securities laws or the Management Investor Rights Agreement or the Plan, and (b) except as otherwise provided under the Management Investor Rights agreement, the Company has no obligation to register the Shares or file any registration statement under federal or state securities laws. The Committee reserves the right to account for Shares through book entry or other electronic means rather than the issuance of stock certificates.
Securities Law Matters Employee acknowledges that the Shares to be received by him or her upon exercise of the Option may have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Blue Sky laws of any state (collectively, the “Securities Acts”). If such Shares have not been so registered, Employee acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register, under the Securities Acts, the Shares received by him or her or to assist him or her in complying with any exemption from such registration if he or she should at a later date wish to dispose of the Shares. Employee acknowledges that if not then registered under the Securities Acts, the Shares shall bear a legend restricting the transferability thereof, such legend to be substantially in the following form: “The shares represented by this certificate have not been registered or qualified under federal or state securities laws. The shares may not be offered for sale, sold, pledged or otherwise disposed of unless so registered or qualified, unless an exemption exists or unless such disposition is not subject to the federal or state securities laws, and the Company may require that the availability or any exemption or the inapplicability of such securities laws be established by an opinion of counsel, which opinion of counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company.”

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Purchaser, or include the name of any Purchaser in any filing with the Commission or any regulatory agency or Trading Market, without the prior written consent of such Purchaser, except (a) as required by federal securities law in connection with the filing of final Transaction Documents with the Commission and (b) to the extent such disclosure is required by law or Trading Market regulations, in which case the Company shall provide the Purchasers with prior notice of such disclosure permitted under this clause (b).
Securities Laws Restrictions The Purchaser agrees not to sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Securities unless, prior thereto (a) a registration statement on the appropriate form under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws with respect to the Securities proposed to be transferred shall then be effective or (b) the Company shall have received an opinion from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such registration is not required because such transaction complies with the Securities Act and the rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder and with all applicable state securities laws.
