Any such Shares shall automatically become subject to the terms of this Agreement as though owned by Shareholder as of the date hereof.

Section 2.3. Restrictions on Transfer, Etc. Except as provided for herein, Shareholder agrees, from the date hereof until the Expiration Time, not to (i) directly or indirectly Transfer any Owned Shares other than any Transfer to members of Shareholder’s immediate family, a family trust of Shareholder or a charitable institution (each a “Permitted Transferee”), but only if, in each case, prior to the effectiveness of the Transfer, the Permitted Transferee of such Owned Shares agrees in writing to be bound by the terms hereof (or an agreement that is substantively identical to this Agreement) and notice of such Transfer, including the name and address of the Permitted Transferee, is delivered to Parent pursuant to Section 6.1 hereof; provided that

Any action attempted to be taken in violation of the preceding sentence will be null and void. Shareholder further agrees to authorize and request Parent and the Company to notify the Company’s transfer agent that there is a stop transfer order with respect to all of the Owned Shares (other than in respect of Transfers expressly permitted by this Section 2.3) and that this Agreement places limits on the voting of the Owned Shares.

The proxy granted by Shareholder pursuant to this Section 2.4 is, subject to the last sentence of this Section 2.4, irrevocable and is coupled with an interest, in accordance with Section 33-706(d) of the CBCA, and is granted in order to secure Shareholder’s performance under this Agreement and also in consideration of Parent entering into this Agreement and the Merger Agreement. If Shareholder fails for any reason to be counted as present, consent or vote the Owned Shares in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.1 above (or anticipatorily breaches such section), then Parent shall have the right to cause to be present, consent or vote Shareholder’s Owned Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.1. The proxy granted by Shareholder shall be automatically revoked upon termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.
