(ii)    enter into any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to any security (other than a broad-based market basket or index) that includes, relates to or derives any significant part of its value from the Lock-Up Shares or any other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Lock-Up Shares;

(iii)    grant any proxies or powers of attorney with respect to any Lock-Up Shares, deposit any Lock-Up Shares into a voting trust, or enter into a voting agreement or similar arrangement or commitment with respect to any Lock-Up Shares or make any public announcement that is in any manner inconsistent with this Section 1; or

(iii)    if the Stockholder is a trust, the Stockholder may transfer its Lock-Up Shares to any grantors or beneficiaries of the trust; and

provided, that with respect to any transfer or distribution pursuant to Section 1(b), (x) no filing by any party (donor, donee, transferor, transferee, distributor or distributee, as the case may be) under the Exchange Act or other public announcement shall be required or shall be made voluntarily in connection with such transfer or disposition during the Lock-Up Period (other than (1) any exit filings or public announcements that may be required under applicable federal and state securities laws or (2) in respect of a required filing under the Exchange Act in connection with a transfer pursuant to Section 1(b)(ii) above or the exercise of an option to purchase Common Stock following such individual’s termination of employment that would otherwise expire during the Lock-Up Period, provided that reasonable notice shall be provided to Parent prior to any such filing), and (y) except with respect to Section 1(b)(iv)(A), (C) and (D) above, it shall be a condition to the transfer or distribution that the transferee or distributee executes an agreement, in the form of this Agreement, stating that the transferee or distributee is receiving and holding such Lock-Up Shares subject to the provisions of such agreement until the Lock-Up Expiration Time.
