If the relevant Company Stock Option is not exercised prior to the Maturity Date (as defined in Exhibit A), any CVPs due pursuant thereto shall terminate and become null and void. If the relevant Company Stock Option is exercised, in whole or in part prior to the Maturity Date (as defined in Exhibit A), upon the sale of any shares of Parent Common Stock received upon the exercise of the relevant Company Stock Option, the CVPs due pursuant to such shares sold shall terminate and become null and void.
