The holders of Executive Stock shall take all necessary and desirable actions in connection with the consummation of the Approved Sale of the Company.
(b) The obligations of the holders of Executive Stock with respect to the Approved Sale of the Company are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) upon the consummation of the Approved Sale, all of the holders of Common Stock shall receive the same form and amount of consideration per share of Common Stock, or if any holders of Common Stock are given an option as to the form and amount of consideration to be received, all holders shall be given the same option; and (ii) all holders of then currently exercisable rights to acquire shares of Common Stock shall be given an opportunity to either (A) exercise such rights prior to the consummation of the Approved Sale and participate in such sale as holders of Common Stock or (B) upon the consummation of the Approved Sale, receive in exchange for such rights consideration equal to the amount determined by multiplying (1) the same amount of consideration per share of Common Stock received by the holders of Common Stock in connection with the Approved Sale less the exercise price per share of Common Stock of such rights to acquire Common Stock by (2) the number of shares of Common Stock represented by such rights.
