(f) In the event any Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Paying Agent shall deliver the Merger Consideration and any dividends or other distributions with respect to Bluestone Common Stock to which such holder is entitled in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the record holder thereof and the delivery of such bond as the Paying Agent may reasonably require. (g) No transfer taxes shall be payable by any shareholder of Amerasia or L&G in respect of the issuance of the Bluestone Common Stock under this Section 3.3, except that if any Bluestone Common Stock is to be issued in a name other than that in which the Certificate surrendered has been registered, it shall be a condition of such issuance that the Person requesting such issuance shall pay to Bluestone any transfer taxes payable by reason thereof, or of any prior transfer of such surrendered Certificate, or establish to the satisfaction of Bluestone that such taxes have been paid or are not payable.

Bluestone shall refuse to register the transfer of any Bluestone Common Stock not made in accordance with this Section 3.5 and for such purpose may place stop order instructions with its transfer agent with respect to the Bluestone Common Stock issued as Merger Consideration. A proposed transfer shall be deemed to comply with this Section 3.5 if the applicable shareholder delivers to Bluestone a legal opinion in form and substance satisfactory to Bluestone from counsel reasonably satisfactory to Bluestone to the effect that such transfer complies with this Section 3.5. -6- (b) During any time that a shareholder of Amerasia or L&G is not entitled to sell the shares of Bluestone Common Stock received as Merger Consideration such shareholder may not (i) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer to dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of Bluestone Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Bluestone Common Stock, or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers all or a portion of the economic consequences associated with the ownership of any Bluestone Common Stock (regardless of whether any of the transactions described in clause (i) or (ii) is to be settled by the delivery of Bluestone Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise).
