The Optionee and his/her legal representative or legatee shall not be deemed for any purpose to be the owner of any shares of Stock subject to the Option and shall not have dividend, voting or other rights of a shareholder with respect to such shares unless, until and to the extent that (i) the Company shall have issued and delivered to the Optionee the shares of Stock for which the Option shall have been exercised, and (ii) the Optionee’s name shall have been entered as a shareholder of record on the books of the Company with respect to such shares of Stock, and if the shares are in certificate form, the certificates representing the shares have been endorsed, transferred and delivered.
