of the Employee and held by the Secretary of the Company as escrow
agent (the "Escrow Agent"), and shall not be sold, transferred or

Shares. In the event of any such merger, reorganization,
consolidation, recapitalization, separation, liquidation, stock
dividend, split-up, Share combination, or other change in the
corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares, by virtue
of which the Employee shall, in his or her capacity as owner of
