Such exchange shall be made at the Company's ’s expense and without any charge therefor. Until so exchanged, the holders of temporary Receipts shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Deposit Agreement, and with respect to the StockPreferred Shares deposited, as holders of definitive Receipts. Receipts shall be executed by the Depositary by the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized officer of the Depositary. No Receipt shall be entitled to any benefits under this Deposit Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose, unless it shall have been executed manually or by facsimile by a duly authorized officer of the Depositary or, if a Registrar for the Receipts (other than the Depositary) shall have been appointed, by manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized officer of the Depositary and countersigned manually by a duly authorized officer of such Registrar. Receipts executed as provided in this section may be issued notwithstanding the fact that any authorized officer of the Depositary authenticating such Receipts shall have ceased to hold office at the time of issuance of such Receipts. The Depositary shall record on its books each Receipt so signed and delivered as hereafter provided. Receipts shall be in denominations of any number of Depositary Shares representing fractional interests in the Stock in even multiples of 1/16th of a share of Stock. All Receipts shall be dated the date of their issuance. Receipts may be endorsed with or have incorporated in the text thereof such legends or recitals or changes not inconsistent with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement as may be required by the Depositary, or by the rules and regulations of the NASDAQ/NMS or any securities exchange upon which the Stock, the Depositary Shares or the Receipts may be included for quotation or listed or to conform with any usage with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Receipts are subject. Title to the Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt which is properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer shall be transferable by delivery with the same effect as in the case of a negotiable instrument; provided, however, that until transfer of a Receipt shall be registered on the books of the Depositary as provided in Section 2.05, the Depositary may, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, treat the record holder thereof at such time as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of determining the person entitled to distribution of dividends or other distributions, the exercise of conversion rights or to any notice provided for in this Deposit Agreement and for all other purposes.
