In the event the Company issues a certificate or certificates for the Restricted Shares, such certificates shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the committee of the Board of Directors that administers the Plan may deem necessary or advisable under the Plan and rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which such Restricted Shares are then listed, and any applicable foreign, federal or state securities laws.
