In accordance with the Merger Agreement, Purchaser was merged with and into the issuer (the "Merger"), with the issuer surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pinnacle. Under the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), each outstanding share of the issuer's common stock was cancelled and converted into the right to receive $11.00 in cash (the "Merger Consideration"). The stock options granted in December 2013 were scheduled to vest ratably over four years. The Merger Agreement provided that each stock option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether or not then exercisable or vested, be cancelled and that each stock option with an exercise price that is less than the Merger Consideration be converted automatically into the right to receive promptly after the Effective Time an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the applicable per share exercise price of the stock option multiplied by (ii) the number of shares subject to the stock option immediately prior to the Effective Time, less applicable taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payment. As provided in the Merger Agreement, any stock option with an exercise price that is greater than the Merger Consideration was cancelled for no consideration at the Effective Time. /s/ Philip Mark Anson, by Timothy Kraft, Attorney-in-fact 2016-01-15
