(3)  Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each unvested restricted stock award that was paid out in settlement of performance shares was cancelled and replaced with the right to receive a cash amount equal to (i) the aggregate number of shares subject to the unvested restricted stock award multiplied by (ii) $99.00, subject to applicable withholding taxes, which amount will, subject to the Reporting Person's continued service with Parent and its affiliates (including Issuer and its subsidiaries) through the applicable vesting dates, vest and be payable at the same time as the corresponding, cancelled unvested restricted stock award would have vested and will generally have the same terms as the corresponding, cancelled unvested restricted stock award.
