Section 1.9 Procedures Relating to Company Common Stock.

(a) Exchange of Certificates. Immediately following the Effective Time, Holdco shall make available to each record holder who, as of the Effective Time, was a holder of an outstanding certificate or certificates which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented Company Common Stock (the “Certificate” or “Certificates”), a letter of transmittal and instructions (“Letter of Transmittal”) for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates for conversion thereof. Delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates to Holdco and the form of Letter of Transmittal shall so reflect. Upon surrender to Holdco of a Certificate, together with such Letter of Transmittal duly executed, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor one or more certificates as requested by the holder (properly issued, executed and countersigned, as appropriate) representing that number of shares of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Holdco Common Stock to which such holder of Company

Page 5 of 11

Common Stock shall have become entitled pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.8 hereof and the Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. No interest will be paid or accrued on the consideration payable upon the surrender of the Certificates. If any portion of the consideration to be received upon exchange of a Certificate is to be issued or paid to a person other than the person in whose name the Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it shall be a condition of such issuance and payment that the Certificate so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the person requesting such exchange shall pay in advance any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of a certificate for Holdco Common Stock to such other person, or established to the satisfaction of Holdco that such tax has been paid or that such tax is not applicable. From the Effective Time until surrender in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.9, each Certificate shall represent for all purposes only the right to receive the consideration provided in Section 1.8. All payments of respective shares of Holdco Common Stock that are made upon surrender of Certificates in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been made in full satisfaction of rights pertaining to the Company Common Stock evidenced by such Certificates.

(b) Dividends and Distributions. No dividends or other distributions with respect to Holdco Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate with respect to the shares of Holdco Common Stock, until the surrender of such Certificate in accordance with this Section 1.9. Following surrender of any such Certificate, there shall be paid to the holder of the certificate representing shares of Holdco Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such shares of Holdco Common Stock and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to such surrender and with a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such shares of Holdco Common Stock.

(c) Lost, Mislaid, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the case of any lost, mislaid, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the holder thereof may be required, as a condition precedent to delivery to such holder of the consideration described in Section 1.8 hereof, to deliver to Holdco a bond in such reasonable sum or a reasonably satisfactory indemnity agreement as Holdco may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against Holdco or the Surviving Corporation with respect to the Certificate alleged to have been lost, mislaid, stolen or destroyed.

(d) No Stock Transfers. After the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for transfer, they shall be canceled and exchanged for the consideration described in Section 1.8.

(e) Unclaimed Merger Consideration. Any shares of Holdco Common Stock due former shareholders of the Company pursuant to Section 1.8 hereof that remain unclaimed by such former shareholders after the Effective Time shall be held by Holdco, and any former holder of Company Common Stock who has not theretofore complied with Section 1.9(a) shall thereafter look only to Holdco for issuance of the number of shares of Holdco Common Stock to which such holder has become entitled pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.8 and Section 1.9(b) hereof; provided, however, that neither Holdco nor any party hereto shall be liable to a former holder of Company Common Stock for any amount required to be paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.
