Treatment of Company Warrants Each outstanding warrant to purchase Company Common Shares (the “Company Warrants”), whether or not exercisable at the Effective Time, shall, at the option of the holder thereof: (i) be surrendered to Parent in exchange for an amount equal to (A)the per share Consideration multiplied by (B) the number of Company Common Shares the holder of such Company Warrant would have received had such holder exercised such Company Warrant immediately prior to the Closing (assuming for the purposes of this calculation, the cashless exercise of such Company Warrant); or (ii) remain outstanding following the Effective Time in accordance with the terms thereof (each such Company Warrant that remains outstanding following the Effective Time, a “Company Converted Warrant”). For the avoidance of doubt, following the Effective Time, Company Converted Warrants will, in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 thereof, represent a right to purchase, for a price equal to the Exercise Price (as defined in such Company Converted Warrant) multiplied by the number of Company Common Shares for which such Company Converted Warrant may have been exercised immediately prior to the Closing, (I) an amount of cash equal to the Cash Consideration multiplied by the number of Company Common Shares for which such Company Converted Warrant may have been exercised immediately prior to the Closing and (II) that number of Parent Common Shares equal to the number of Company Common Shares for which such Company Converted Warrant may have been exercised immediately prior to the Closing multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, together with any cash paid in lieu of a fractional share in accordance with the terms of the Company Converted Warrants; provided, that, the number of Parent Common Shares deliverable upon the exercise of the Company Converted Warrants following the Closing shall be subject to adjustment for events subsequent to the Closing on terms economically equivalent to those provided in the Company Converted Warrants. Also for the avoidance of doubt, upon exercise, to the extent applicable, the holder of any Company Converted Warrant shall be entitled to receive any evidences of indebtedness, assets (including cash) or other property such holder would have been entitled to receive in lieu of an adjustment to the Exercise Price (as defined in the Company Warrants) in accordance with the terms of such Company Converted Warrant.

The Top-Up Option will be exercised by Parent or Merger Sub immediately after the Acceptance Time if following such Acceptance Time, Parent or Merger Sub do not own 80% of the outstanding Shares; provided, however, that the obligation of the Company to deliver Top-Up Option Shares upon the exercise of the Top-Up Option is subject to the conditions that (i) no judgment, injunction, order or decree of any Governmental Entity shall prohibit the exercise of the Top-Up Option or the delivery of the Top-Up Option Shares in respect of such exercise, (ii) the issuance of the Top-Up Option Shares will not cause the Company to have more Shares outstanding than are authorized by the Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company, and (iii) Merger Sub has accepted for payment and paid for all Shares validly tendered in the Offer and not withdrawn.

Treatment of Company Options Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof) will adopt resolutions and take all other actions necessary and appropriate to provide that: (i) immediately prior to the Effective Time, each unexpired and unexercised option to purchase Shares (the “Company Options”), under any employee, consultant or director stock option, stock purchase or equity compensation plan, arrangement or agreement of the Company, including the Company’s Amended and Restated 2005 Stock Incentive Plan and the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Award Plan, (the “Company Stock Option Plans”), whether or not then exercisable or vested, will vest (in the case of a Company Option that is subject to a performance-based vesting condition, vesting will be determined in accordance with the terms and conditions applicable to the award) and be cancelled and, in exchange therefor, each former holder of any such cancelled Company Option will only be entitled to receive, in consideration of the cancellation of such Company Option and in full settlement therefor, a payment in cash of an amount equal to the product of (A) the total number of Shares previously subject to such Company Option and (B) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price per Share previously subject to such Company Option (such amounts payable hereunder being referred to as the “Option Payments”); (ii) from and after the Effective Time, any such cancelled Company Option will no longer be exercisable by the former holder thereof, but will only entitle such holder to the payment of the Option Payment; and (iii) if the exercise price per Share of any such Company Option is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration or, in the case of a Company Option that is subject to a performance-based vesting condition, to the extent the applicable performance-based vesting condition has not been satisfied as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and such portion of the Company Option is not required (pursuant to the terms and conditions applicable to the award) to become vested in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, such Company Option shall be cancelled immediately prior to the Effective Time without any payment being made in respect thereof.

This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately prior to the close of business on the date of its surrender for exercise as provided above. The person entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record of such shares as of the close of business on the date the Company receives the Notice of Exercise, subject to receipt of the Exercise Amount.
