(b) Each share of Company Common Stock held in the treasury of Company or owned by Parent or any wholly owned Subsidiary of Company or Parent immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and retired and no shares of stock or other securities of Parent or any other corporation shall be issuable, and no payment of other consideration shall be made, with respect thereto. SECTION 3.02 Exchange of Shares Other than Treasury Shares (a) Exchange Agent. As of the Effective Time, Parent shall enter into an agreement with American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, Inc. or such other bank or trust company as may be designated by Parent to act as exchange agent for the Merger (the 'Exchange Agent').

Promptly after the Effective Time, Parent shall make available to the Exchange Agent for the benefit of the holders of Company Common Stock: (i) certificates of Parent Common Stock ('Parent Certificates') representing the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 3.01(a) in exchange for shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) sufficient funds to permit payment in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 3.04. (c) Exchange Procedures. The Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of record of certificates representing shares of Company Common Stock ('Company Certificates'), whose shares were converted into the right to receive Parent Common Stock (and cash in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 3.04) promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event not later than the later to occur of seven (7) Business Days after (i) the Effective Time and (ii) receipt by Parent of a complete list from Company of the names and addresses of its holders of record): (i) a form letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Company Certificates shall pass, only upon receipt of the Company Certificates by the Exchange Agent, and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent may reasonably specify); and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Company Certificates in exchange for Parent Certificates (and cash in lieu of fractional shares). Upon surrender of a Company Certificate for cancellation to the Exchange Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by Parent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed, and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Company Certificate shall be entitled to receive, in exchange therefor, a Parent Certificate representing the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to this Article III, dividends or distributions declared or made on such Parent Common Stock after the Effective Time and payable between the Effective 6 Time and the time of such surrender and/or payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares which such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 3.04, and the Company Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. Until so surrendered, each outstanding Company Certificate that, prior to the Effective Time, represented shares of Company Common Stock will be deemed from and after the Effective Time, to represent for all purposes only the right to receive the number of full shares of Parent Common Stock into which such shares of Company Common Stock are so convertible, any dividends or distributions declared or made on such Parent Common Stock after the Effective Time and payable between the Effective Time and the time of such surrender and the right to receive an amount in cash in lieu of the issuance of any fractional shares in accordance with Section 3.04. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Restated Agreement, no interest will be paid or will accrue on any cash payable to holders of Company Certificates pursuant to the provisions of this Article III. (d) Distributions With Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No dividends or other distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time will be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Company Certificate with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock represented thereby until the holder of record of such Company Certificate shall surrender such Company Certificate. Subject to the effect of applicable escheat or similar Laws, following surrender of any such Company Certificate, there shall be paid to the record holder of the Parent Certificates issued in exchange therefor, without interest, at the time of such surrender, the amount of any such dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore payable (but for the provisions of this Section 3.02(d)) with respect to such shares of Parent Common Stock. (e) Transfer of Ownership. If any Parent Certificate is to be issued in a name, or cash in lieu of fractional shares paid to a Person, other than that in which the Company Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it will be a condition of the issuance and/or payment thereof that the Company Certificate so surrendered will be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such exchange will have paid to Parent or any agent designated by it any transfer or other Taxes required by reason of the issuance of a Parent Certificate for shares of Parent Common Stock in any name other than that of the registered holder of the Company Certificate surrendered, or established to the satisfaction of Parent or any agent designated by it that such Tax has been paid or is not payable. (f) Termination of Exchange Agent Funding. Any portion of funds (including any interest earned thereon) or Parent Certificates held by the Exchange Agent which have not been delivered to holders of Company Certificates pursuant to this Article III within six months after the Effective Time shall promptly be paid or delivered, as appropriate, to Parent, and thereafter holders of Company Certificates who have not theretofore complied with the exchange procedures set forth in and contemplated by this Section 3.02 shall thereafter look only to Parent (subject to abandoned property, escheat and similar Laws) only as general creditors thereof for their claim for shares of Parent Common Stock, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock and any dividends or distributions (with a record date after the Effective Time) with respect to Parent Common Stock to which they are entitled. (g) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.02, none of the Exchange Agent, the Surviving Corporation nor any party hereto shall be liable to any Person in respect of any shares of Parent Common Stock or cash delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. SECTION 3.03 Stock Transfer Books. As of the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of Company shall be closed, and there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Common Stock thereafter on the records of any such stock transfer books. In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Common Stock that is not registered in the stock transfer records of Company at the Effective Time, a certificate or certificates representing the number of full shares of Parent Common Stock into which such shares of Company Common Stock shall have been converted shall be issued to the transferee together with a cash payment in lieu of fractional shares, if any, in accordance with Section 3.04 hereof, and a cash payment in the 7 amount of dividends, if any, in accordance with Section 3.02(d) hereof, if the certificate or certificates representing such shares of Company Common Stock, as the case may be, is or are surrendered in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.02(c) hereof, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and by evidence of payment of any applicable stock transfer Tax. SECTION 3.04 No Fractional Share Certificates. No scrip or fractional share Parent Certificate shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Company Certificates, and an outstanding fractional share interest shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote, to receive dividends or to any rights of a stockholder of Parent or of Surviving Corporation with respect to such fractional share interest. As promptly as practicable following the Effective Time, Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent an amount in cash sufficient for the Exchange Agent to pay each holder of Company Common Stock an amount in cash, rounded to the nearest whole cent, equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the fractional share interest to which such holder would otherwise be entitled (after taking into account all shares of Company Common Stock held at the Effective Time by such holder) by (ii) the closing price for a share of Parent Common Stock on the NNM on the Business Day immediately prior to the Effective Time.
