If at any time the Company will determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of the Shares upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory authority is necessary or desirable as a condition to the issuance of Shares to Participant (or his or her estate), such issuance will not occur unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval will have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company. Where the Company determines that the delivery of the payment of any Shares will violate federal securities laws or other applicable laws, the Company will defer delivery until the earliest date at which the Company reasonably anticipates that the delivery of Shares will no longer cause such violation. The Company will make all reasonable efforts to meet the requirements of any such state or federal law or securities exchange and to obtain any such consent or approval of any such governmental authority.</font></p><p style="margin-bottom:0pt;margin-top:9pt;margin-left:0%;text-indent:3.37%;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;;"><font style="font-size:12pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;text-indent:3.37%">15. </font><font style="text-decoration:underline;font-size:12pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;text-indent:3.37%">Definitions</font><font style="font-size:12pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;">.</font></p><p style="margin-bottom:0pt;margin-top:12pt;margin-left:0%;text-indent:7.14%;font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:12pt;;"><font style="font-size:12pt;font-family:Times New Roman;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-transform:none;font-variant: normal;text-indent:7.14%">(a) &#8220;Calculated Stock Price&#8221; means</font></p><p style="margin-bottom:0pt;margin-top:12pt;margin-left:0%;text-indent:0%;font-size:11pt;">&nbsp;</p>
