These securities may not be offered, sold, transferred, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of registration, or the availability of an exemption from such registration. Furthermore, no offer, sale, transfer, pledge or hypothecation is to take place without the prior written approval of counsel to the company being affixed to this certificate.
