If a Participant terminates employment with the Company or an Affiliate for any reason, such Shares shall continue to be subject to the restrictions on transfer imposed under this Paragraph 5(a)(v) until the earlier of (x) the death of Participant and (y) the third anniversary of the Purchase Date on which such Shares were purchased, and shall thereafter be transferable without such restrictions.”
