Book-Entry Shares Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no holder of non-certificated Shares or Preferred Shares represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry Shares”) shall be required to deliver a Certificate or, in the case of holders of Book-Entry Shares held through The Depository Trust Company, an executed letter of transmittal to the Paying Agent, to receive the Merger Consideration or the Series A Preferred Stock Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(a) or Section 2.1(d), as applicable. In lieu thereof, each holder of record of one or more Book-Entry Shares held through The Depository Trust Company whose Shares or Preferred Shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration or the Series A Preferred Stock Consideration, as applicable, shall automatically upon the Effective Time be entitled to receive, and Parent shall cause the Paying Agent to pay and deliver to The Depository Trust Company or its nominee as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, in respect of each such Book-Entry Share a cash amount in immediately available funds equal to the Merger Consideration or the Series A Preferred Stock Consideration, as applicable (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.5), and such Book-Entry Shares of such holder shall be cancelled. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time (and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after the Effective Time), the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Paying Agent to mail to each Person that was, immediately prior to the Effective Time, a holder of record of Book-Entry Shares not held through The Depository Trust Company: (A) a letter of transmittal, which shall be in such form as Parent and the Paying Agent shall reasonably agree; and (B) instructions for returning such letter of transmittal in exchange for the Merger Consideration or Series A Preferred Stock Consideration, as applicable. Upon delivery of such letter of transmittal, in accordance with the terms of such letter of transmittal, duly executed, the holder of such Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a cash amount in immediately available funds equal to the Merger Consideration or the Series A Preferred Stock Consideration, as applicable (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.5), and such Book-Entry Shares so surrendered shall at the Effective Time be cancelled. Payment of the Merger Consideration or the Series A Preferred Stock Consideration with respect to Book-Entry Shares shall only be made to the Person in whose name such Book-Entry Shares are registered. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due surrender of Book-Entry Shares. Until paid or surrendered as contemplated hereby, each Book-Entry Share shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration or the Series A Preferred Stock Consideration, as applicable, in cash as contemplated by this Agreement, except for Book-Entry Shares representing Dissenting Shares, which shall be deemed to represent the right to receive payment of the fair value of such Shares or Preferred Shares, as applicable, in accordance with and to the extent provided by Section 262 of the DGCL.
Surrender of Shares 1. The Shareholder hereby surrenders to the Company the Surrendered Shares by delivering to the Company herewith a share certificate or certificates representing the Shares, duly endorsed for transfer in blank, signatures medallion guaranteed. The Company hereby acknowledges receipt from the Shareholder of the certificates for the sole purpose of retiring the Surrendered Shares.
Book-Entry for Book-Entry Certificates Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Book-Entry Certificates, upon original issuance, shall be issued in the form of one or more typewritten Certificates of Authorized Denomination representing the Book-Entry Certificates, to be delivered to DTC, the initial Clearing Agency, by, or on behalf of, the Company. The Book-Entry Certificates shall initially be registered on the Certificate Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of DTC, as the initial Clearing Agency, and no Beneficial Holder shall receive a definitive certificate representing such Beneficial Holder's interest in any Class of Book-Entry Certificate, except as provided above and in Section 5.09. Each Book-Entry Certificate shall bear the following legend: Unless this Certificate is presented by an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation ("DTC"), to the Company or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange, or payment, and any Certificate issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or such other name as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any payment is made to Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Book-Entry Certificates (the "Definitive Certificates") have been issued to the Beneficial Holders pursuant to Section 5.09:
Surrender of Stock To the extent that a Stock Option Award Agreement so provides, payment may be made all or in part by surrendering, or attesting to the ownership of, Shares which have already been owned by the Participant or his representative. Such Shares shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date when the new Shares are purchased under the Plan. The Participant shall not surrender, or attest to the ownership of, Shares in payment of the Exercise Price if such action would cause the Company to recognize compensation expense (or additional compensation expense) with respect to the Option for financial reporting purposes.
Surrender of Shares; Stock Transfer Books (a) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall designate a bank or trust company reasonably satisfactory to XETA to act as agent (the “Exchange Agent”) for the holders of Common Shares in connection with the Merger to receive the Merger Consideration to which holders of Common Shares shall become entitled pursuant to Section 1.6. At or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, in trust for the benefit of the holders of Common Shares, for payment by the Exchange Agent in accordance with this Article I, the cash necessary to pay to the holders of the Common Shares converted into the right to receive Merger Consideration (the “Exchange Fund”). The Exchange Agent, pursuant to irrevocable instructions consistent with the terms of this Agreement, shall deliver such cash to be paid pursuant to Section 1.6 out of the Exchange Fund, and the Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose whatsoever. The Exchange Fund shall be invested by the Exchange Agent as directed by the Surviving Corporation; provided, however, that such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America or of any agency thereof and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America, in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Xxxxx’x Investors Services, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, or in deposit accounts, certificates of deposit or banker’s acceptances of, repurchase or reverse repurchase agreements with, or Eurodollar time deposits purchased from, commercial banks with capital, surplus and undivided profits aggregating in excess of $500 million (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank which are then publicly available at the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or otherwise); provided further, that any net profits from, or interest or income produced by, such investments shall be payable as directed by Parent; provided, further, that no loss on any investment made pursuant to this Section 1.8 shall affect the Merger Consideration payable to the holders of Common Shares and, following any losses, Parent shall promptly provide additional funds to the Exchange Agent for the benefit of the shareholders of XETA in the amount of any such losses.

Promptly after (and in any event no later than the third business day after) the Offer Acceptance Time, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Depository Agent cash sufficient to make the payment of the aggregate Offer Price payable pursuant to Section 1.1(h). On or prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Paying Agent cash sufficient to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration payable pursuant to Section 2.5 (together with the amount deposited pursuant the immediately preceding sentence, the “Payment Fund”). The Payment Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than to pay the aggregate Offer Price in the Offer and the aggregate Merger Consideration in the Merger. The Payment Fund shall be invested by the Paying Agent as directed by the Surviving Corporation; provided that such investments shall be (w) in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America, (x) in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, (y) in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding one billion dollars, or (z) in money market funds having a rating in the highest investment category granted by a recognized credit rating agency at the time of acquisition or a combination of the foregoing and, in any such case, no such instrument shall have a maturity exceeding three months. To the extent Parent becomes aware that (i) there are any losses with respect to any such investments or (ii) the Payment Fund has diminished for any reason below the level required for the Paying Agent to make prompt cash payment pursuant to Section 1.1(h) and Section 2.5, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, promptly replace or restore the cash in the Payment Fund so as to ensure that the Payment Fund is, at all times during the duration of the Payment Fund, maintained at a level sufficient for the Paying Agent to make such payments pursuant to Section 1.1(h) and Section 2.5.
