The restrictions in the immediately preceding paragraph shall not apply to:
(a) the sale of the Securities to be sold pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement;
(b) transfers of shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock (i) as a bona fide gift, or gifts, (ii) to an immediate family member or a trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or such immediate family member of the undersigned, (iii) by will or intestacy, or (iv) pursuant to a qualified domestic order or in connection with a divorce settlement; provided, that the transferee shall sign and deliver a letter agreement substantially in the form of this letter agreement prior to such transfer;

(h) transactions relating to the Common Stock acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the Offering; and
(i) the transfer of Common Stock pursuant to a change of control of the Company after the Offering, that has been approved by the independent members of the Company’s board of directors, provided, that in the event that such change of control is not completed, the Securities owned by the undersigned shall remain subject to the restrictions herein. For purposes of this clause (i), “change of control” shall mean the consummation of any bona fide third party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction made to all holders of Securities the result of which is that any “person” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), or group of persons, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act) of more than 50% of the voting capital stock of the Company;

This letter agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof.
