Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7(c), the Corporation Company may suspend the issuance of shares of Series G Junior Preferred Stock upon exercise of a Right for a reasonable period, not in excess of 120 ninety (90) days, during which the Corporation Company seeks to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and any applicable securities law of any other jurisdiction, the shares of Series G Junior Preferred Stock to be issued pursuant to the Rights; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 7(c) shall relieve the Corporation Company of its obligations under Section 9(c) hereof. (d) In case the registered record holder of any Rights Right Certificate shall exercise less than all the Rights evidenced thereby, a new Rights Right Certificate evidencing Rights equivalent to the Rights remaining unexercised shall be issued by the Rights Agent to the registered holder of such Rights Right Certificate or his assigneeor her assign, subject to the provisions of Section 14(b) hereof. (e) Notwithstanding any provision of this Rights Agreement to the contrary, from and after the time (the "invalidation time") when any Person first becomes an Acquiring Person, other than pursuant to a Qualifying Tender Offer, any Rights that are beneficially owned by (x) such Acquiring Person (or any Associate or Affiliate of such Acquiring Person), (y) a transferee of such Acquiring Person (or any such Associate or Affiliate) who becomes a transferee after the invalidation time, or (z) a transferee of such Acquiring Person (or any such Associate or Affiliate) who becomes a transferee prior to or concurrently with the invalidation time pursuant to either (I) a transfer from the Acquiring Person to holders of its equity securities or to any Person with whom it has any continuing agreement, arrangement or understanding regarding the transferred Rights, or (II) a transfer which is part of a plan, arrangement or understanding which has the purpose or effect of avoiding the provisions of this Section 7(e), and subsequent transferees of such Persons referred to in clause (y) and (z) above, shall be void without any further action and any holder of such Rights shall thereafter have no rights whatsoever with respect to such Rights under any provision of this Rights Agreement. The Company shall use all reasonable efforts to ensure that the provisions of this Section 7(e) are complied with, but shall have no liability to any holder of Right Certificates or any other Person as a result of its failure to make any determination with respect to an Acquiring Person or its Affiliates, Associates or transferees hereunder. No Right Certificate shall be issued pursuant to Section 3 hereof that represents Rights Beneficially Owned by an Acquiring Person whose Rights would be void pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7(e) or any Associate or Affiliate thereof; no Right Certificate shall be issued at any time upon the transfer of any Rights to an Acquiring Person whose Rights would be void pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7(e) or any Associate or Affiliate thereof or to any nominee of such Acquiring Person, Associate or Affiliate; and any Right Certificate delivered to the Rights Agent for transfer to an Acquiring Person whose Rights would be void pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7(e) shall be canceled. (f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Rights Agent nor the Corporation Company shall be obligated to undertake any action with respect to a registered record holder upon the occurrence of any purported exercise as set forth in this Section 7 unless such registered record holder shall have (i) completed and signed the certificate following the form of election to purchase set forth on the reverse side of the Rights Right Certificate surrendered for such exercise exercise, and (ii) provided such additional evidence of the identity of the Beneficial Owner (or former Beneficial Owner) or Affiliates or Associates thereof or a Person referred to in clause (y) or (z) of Section 11(a)(ii) and such other information as the Corporation Company shall reasonably request.
