4.Book Entry Ownership. The Company shall recognize the Participant’s ownership of the Restricted Shares through uncertificated book entry. To the extent required by the Company, the Participant shall deliver to the Company a share power, duly endorsed in blank, relating to the Restricted Shares that have not previously vested.
5.Rights as a Shareholder. The Participant shall be the record owner of the Restricted Shares until or unless such Restricted Shares are forfeited pursuant to Section 3 hereof, and as record owner shall be entitled to all rights of a shareholder of the Company, including, without limitation, voting and dividend rights with respect to the Restricted Shares; provided that the Restricted Shares that have not previously vested shall be subject to the limitations on transfer and encumbrance set forth in Section 8.
6.Notations. To the extent applicable, all book entries representing the vested Restricted Shares shall be subject to the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which such Restricted Shares are listed, and any applicable Federal or state laws, and the Board may cause notations to be made next to the book entries to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.
7.No Right to Continued Board Service. The granting of the Restricted Shares evidenced by this Agreement shall impose no obligation on the Company or any Affiliate to continue the Board Service of the Participant and shall not lessen or affect the Company’s or its Affiliate’s right to terminate the Board Service of such Participant.
8.Transferability. The Restricted Shares may not, at any time prior to becoming vested pursuant to Section 3, be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by the Participant and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or any Affiliate; provided that the designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute an assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance.
9.Withholding. The Participant may be required to pay to the Company or any Affiliate and the Company shall have the right and is hereby authorized to (but is not required to) withhold, any applicable withholding taxes in respect of the Restricted Shares, their grant or vesting or any payment or transfer with respect to the Restricted Shares and to take such action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Board to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such withholding taxes.
