All Cancelled Shares will be cancelled and shall cease to exist without consideration in exchange therefor. Additionally, at the Effective Time, each:

 

  (i)

Stock Option that is outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall become immediately vested and converted automatically into the right to receive at the Effective Time an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the per share exercise price under such Stock Option, and (ii) the total number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Stock Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, less any taxes required to be withheld (provided, however, that any Stock Option for which its per share exercise price is greater than the Merger Consideration will be cancelled and terminated at the Effective Time for no consideration);

 

  (ii)

Company RSU Award (or portion thereof) that is outstanding and vested as of immediately prior to the Effective Time but which have not settled into shares of Common Stock shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Merger Consideration for each share of Common Stock otherwise deliverable in settlement of such vested Company RSU Award (or portion thereof), less any taxes required to be withheld;

 

  (iii)

Company RSU Award (or portion thereof) that is unvested, outstanding and unsettled immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and converted into the unfunded, unsecured right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the Merger Consideration (less any taxes required to be withheld), subject to the holder’s satisfaction of any time-based vesting terms (including any accelerated vesting in connection with a termination of service) that applied with respect to the underlying Company RSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time.

The consummation of the Merger is subject to certain conditions, including, but not limited to: (i) Company Stockholder Approval; (ii) Majority of the Minority Approval; (ii) expiration or termination of any waiting periods applicable to the consummation of the Merger under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976; and (iii) the absence of any law or order restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Merger.

The Issuer has made customary representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement and has agreed to customary covenants, including those regarding the operation of the business of the Issuer and its Subsidiaries prior to the Effective Time. The parties have also agreed to use their reasonable best efforts to consummate the Merger.

The purpose of the transactions contemplated under the Merger Agreement, including the Merger, is for V99 to acquire all of the outstanding Common Stock of the Issuer other than the Cancelled Shares and Dissenting Shares. If completed, the Merger will result in the Issuer becoming a privately held company, the Shares would be delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market, and the Shares would be deregistered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as soon after closing of the Merger as the requirements for such delisting and termination of registration are satisfied.


Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the parties thereto agreed to take all necessary action such that the directors of Merger Sub at the Effective Time will become the directors of the Surviving Corporation immediately following the Effective Time.
