In accordance with BAS’s customary procedures, BAS will deposit shares of Stock purchased hereunder into an account established by BAS for the Issuer against payment to BAS of the purchase price therefor and commissions and other amounts in respect thereof payable pursuant to this Section.  The Issuer will be notified of all transactions pursuant to customary trade confirmations.

(4) the commencement of any voluntary or involuntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver or other similar official, or the taking of any corporate action by the Issuer to authorize or commence any of the foregoing;

 

(5) the public announcement of a tender or exchange offer for the Stock or of a merger, acquisition, recapitalization or other similar business combination or transaction as a result of which the Stock would be exchanged for or converted into cash, securities or other property; or

 

(6) the failure of the Issuer to comply with Section 2 hereof.

 

(b) Sections 2 and 13 of this Repurchase Plan shall survive any termination hereof.  In addition, the Issuer’s obligation under Section 2 hereof in respect of any shares of Stock purchased prior to any termination hereof shall survive any termination hereof.
