Stock Options and Warrants At the Effective Time of the Merger, each outstanding option to purchase Company Common Stock (each, a "Company Stock Option"), whether or not granted under the Company Option Plan, and all outstanding warrants to purchase Company Common Stock the outstanding whether or not vested, shall by virtue of the Merger be assumed by Parent. Each Company Stock Option and Warrant so assumed by Parent under this Agreement will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions of such options immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger (including, without limitation, any repurchase rights or vesting provisions and provisions regarding the acceleration of vesting on certain transactions), except that (i) each Company Stock Option and Warrant will be exercisable (or will become exercisable in accordance with its terms) for that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the number of Company Shares that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Stock Option or Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock if the said product is equal to or less than the fraction of one-half (.5) of one Parent Common Stock or rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock if the said product is greater than the fraction of one-half (.5) of one Parent Common Stock, and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed Company Stock Option and Warrant will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per Company Share at which such Company Stock Option and Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Parent shall comply with the terms of all such Company Stock Options and Warrants and use its best efforts to ensure, to the extent required by, and subject to the provisions of, the Company Option Plan and permitted under the Code or other relevant laws and regulations that any Company Stock Option that qualified for tax treatment under Section 424(b) of the Code prior to the Effective Time of the Merger continue to so qualify after the Effective Time of the Merger. Parent shall take all corporate actions necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock for delivery upon exercise of all Company Stock Options and Warrants on the terms set forth in this Section 2.03(b).
Vested Company Options Immediately prior to but contingent upon the Closing, each Company Option that is unexpired, unexercised and vested immediately prior to the Closing (“Vested Options”) shall, by virtue of the Closing and without the need for any further action on the part of the holder thereof, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, be automatically cancelled, and each Optionholder holding Vested Options shall have the right to receive, with respect to such Vested Options, an amount in cash, without interest, equal to such Optionholder’s Pro Rata Share of the Closing Date Purchase Price (subject to withholding of such Optionholder’s Pro Rata Share in each of the Adjustment Holdback Amount, the Expense Fund), and (B) the right to receive such Optionholder’s Pro Rata Share of any cash disbursements that may become payable, with respect to such Vested Options, from the Adjustment Holdback Amount and the Expense Fund, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and (C) the right to receive such Optionholder’s Pro Rata Share of any positive Adjustment Amount that may become payable, with respect to such Vested Options, pursuant to Section 2.8, and (D) the right to receive such Optionholder’s Pro Rata Share of any Earnout Consideration that may become payable under this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.9. The amount of cash that each holder of Vested Options is entitled to receive for such Vested Options will be subject to any applicable payroll, income Tax or other withholding Taxes and the provisions of the Israeli Tax Ruling and/or the Israeli Interim Tax Ruling if obtained. For the avoidance of doubt, an Optionholder’s “Pro Rata Share” for purposes of this Section 2.2(a) shall be calculated based on such Optionholder’s holding of Vested Options (disregarding any shares of the Company or Unvested Options held by such Optionholder).
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.
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.
Treatment of Options and Convertible Securities In case the Company at any time or from time to time after the date hereof shall issue, sell, grant or assume, or shall fix a record date for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive, any Options or Convertible Securities, then, and in each such case, the maximum number of Additional Shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instrument relating thereto, without regard to any provisions contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options therefor, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be Additional Shares of Common Stock issued as of the time of such issue, sale, grant or assumption or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business on such record date (or, if the Common Stock trades on an ex-dividend basis, on the date prior to the commencement of ex-dividend trading), provided that such Additional Shares of Common Stock shall not be deemed to have been issued unless the consideration per share (determined pursuant to Section 2.5) of such shares would be less than the Current Market Price immediately prior to such issue, sale, grant or assumption or immediately prior to the close of business on such record date (or, if the Common Stock trades on an ex-dividend basis, on the date prior to the commencement of ex-dividend trading), as the case may be, and provided, further, that in any such case in which Additional Shares of Common Stock are deemed to be issued
Treatment of Company Stock Options Immediately after the Effective Time, each outstanding option to purchase shares of Company Common Stock (a “Company Stock Option”) granted under the Company 2015 Omnibus Incentive Plan and the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan for Key Employees of the Company and its affiliates (collectively, the “Company Stock Plans”), whether vested or unvested, shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, cease to represent an option to purchase shares of Company Common Stock and shall be converted into an option to purchase a number of shares of Parent Common Stock (such option, a “Converted Stock Option”) equal to the product (with the result rounded down to the nearest whole number) of (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the Exchange Ratio, at an exercise price per share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to (A) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock of such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by (B) the Exchange Ratio; provided, however, that the exercise price and the number of shares of Parent Common Stock purchasable pursuant to the Converted Stock Option shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Except as specifically provided above, following the Effective Time, each Converted Stock Option shall continue to be governed by the same terms and conditions (including vesting (and acceleration thereof upon the Closing, to the extent provided therein), forfeiture and exercisability terms) as were applicable to the corresponding Company Stock Option at the Effective Time; provided, however, that (1) to the extent that any Company Stock Option that is subject to vesting solely upon achievement of a target price per share of Company Common Stock (such price, the “Target Price” and such Company Stock Option, a “Target Price Option”)) would, by its terms, expire as of the Effective Time, such Target Price Option shall be amended such that it will not expire upon the Effective Time and shall instead become a Converted Stock Option, and remain eligible to vest upon satisfaction of the applicable Target Price, as adjusted to equal the initial Target Price divided by the Exchange Ratio (the “Adjusted Target Price”), (2) all Converted Stock Options held by a Company Employee (other than any Converted Stock Option with an Adjusted Target Price) shall vest in their entirety to the extent such Company Employee undergoes a Covered Termination and (3) all Converted Stock Options with an Adjusted Target Price held by a Company Employee shall be cancelled for no consideration or payment to the extent such Company Employee undergoes any termination of employment (including a Covered Termination) and at the time of such termination, the Adjusted Target Price is not achieved. For purposes hereof, a “Covered Termination” means, with respect to a Company Employee, (A) an involuntary termination of such Company Employee’s employment initiated by the Company that would result in the payment of severance benefits under the applicable Company Benefit Plan under which such Company Employee is eligible for severance benefits or (B) such Company Employee resigns from employment as a result of a material diminution in (I) the duties or responsibilities of such Company Employee as of the date of this Agreement, or (II) the base salary or annual incentive compensation opportunity afforded to such Company Employee as of the date of this Agreement, in each case, to the extent that such termination or resignation occurs on or following the date of this Agreement and on or prior to the second (2nd) anniversary of the Closing Date; provided that, in the case of a Company Employee resigning under clause (B) above, (x) the Company Employee shall provide the Surviving Corporation with written notice specifying the circumstances alleged to constitute the applicable material diminution within sixty (60) days following the first (1st) occurrence of such circumstances, (y) the Surviving Corporation shall have thirty (30) days following receipt of such notice to cure such circumstances and (z) if the Surviving Corporation has not cured such circumstances within such thirty (30)-day period, the Company Employee shall terminate his or her employment not later than thirty (30) days after the end of such thirty (30) day period; provided further that any such resignation under clause (B) above shall constitute a Covered Termination with respect to a Company Employee who is not a Covered Company Employee solely if so determined by the Company CEO (subject to his continued employment with the Company, or, following the Closing, with Parent, through such date).
Stock Options; Warrants (a) At the Effective Time and without any action on the part of the parties hereto, (i) the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan, the 1993 Incentive Stock Option, Nonqualified Stock Option and Restricted Stock Purchase Plan (together, the “Company Stock Plans”) and (ii) each unexercised and unexpired stock option that is then outstanding under the Company Stock Plans or any other plan or arrangement under which the Company or its subsidiaries grants stock options, whether or not exercisable and whether or not vested (the “Company Options”), shall be assumed by Parent and such Company Options shall be converted into options to purchase Parent Common Stock (individually an “Assumed Option” and collectively the “Assumed Options”). Each Assumed Option shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions as set forth in the applicable Company Stock Plan and any agreement evidencing the grant of such Assumed Option, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that, as of the Effective Time, (i) the Assumed Options shall be exercisable for whole shares of Parent Common Stock, and the number of such shares shall be equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Assumed Option, whether or not exercisable, immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock, (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Assumed Option shall be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such Assumed Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent, (iii) all references in the Company Stock Plan and the agreement evidencing the Assumed Option to the Company shall be deemed to be references to Parent and (iv) all references in the Company Stock Plan and the agreement evidencing the Company Option to Company Common Stock shall be deemed to be references to Parent Common Stock. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.2, the conversion of any Assumed Options (regardless of whether such options qualify as “incentive stock options” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) into options to purchase Parent Common Stock shall be made in such a manner as would not constitute a “modification” of such Assumed Options within the meaning of Section 424 of the Code.
Treatment of Company Equity Awards (a) Subject to Section 3.05(f), at the Effective Time, each Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, shall, without any further action on the part of any holder of a Company Option, be assumed by Acquiror. Each such Company Option so assumed by Acquiror hereunder (an “Adjusted Option”) shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions (including the term, exercisability and vesting schedule as were applicable to the corresponding Company Option immediately before the Effective Time, except that (i) Acquiror’s board of directors or a committee thereof shall succeed as to the authority and responsibility of the Company Board or any committee thereof with respect to any Adjusted Option; (ii) each Adjusted Option will be exercisable for that number of shares of Class A common stock of the Acquiror (“Acquiror Common Stock”) (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of the number of shares of Common Stock to which the corresponding Company Option related immediately prior to the Effective Time and the Equity Award Exchange Ratio, and (iii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Acquiror Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Adjusted Option will be equal to the quotient of the per share exercise price of the Company Option divided by the Equity Award Exchange Ratio (rounded up to the nearest whole cent). The date of grant of each Adjusted Option will be the date on which the corresponding Company Option was granted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the adjustment described in this Section 3.05(a) shall be made on a grant-by-grant basis in a manner consistent with Section 409A of the Code and, with respect to each Company Option that is an incentive stock option (within the meaning of Section 422(b) of the Code), no adjustment will be made that would be a modification (within the meaning of Section 424(h) of the Code) to such Company Option.
Company Stock Options At the Effective Time, each Company Stock --------------------- Option shall be deemed to have been assumed by Evergreen, without further action by Evergreen, and shall thereafter be deemed an option to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Company Stock Option, that number of shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock that would have been received in respect of such Company Stock Option if it had been exercised immediately prior to the Effective Time (such Company Stock Options assumed by Evergreen, the "Assumed Chancellor Stock Options"); provided, however, that, for -------- ------- each optionholder, (i) the aggregate fair market value of Surviving Corporation Common Stock subject to Assumed Chancellor Stock Options immediately after the Effective Time shall not exceed the aggregate exercise price thereof by more than the excess of the aggregate fair market value of Company Common Stock subject to Company Stock Options immediately before the Effective Time over the aggregate exercise price thereof and (ii) on a share-by-share comparison, the ratio of the exercise price of the Assumed Chancellor Stock Option to the fair market value of the Surviving Corporation Common Stock immediately after the Effective Time is no more favorable to the optionholder than the ratio of the exercise price of the Company Stock Option to the fair market value of the Company Common Stock immediately before the Effective Time; and provided, -------- further, that no fractional shares shall be issued on the exercise of such ------- Assumed Chancellor Stock Option and, in lieu thereof, the holder of such Assumed Chancellor Stock Option shall only be entitled to a cash payment in the amount of such fraction multiplied by the closing price per share of Surviving Corporation Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market on the business day immediately prior to the date of such exercise.
Company Stock Option Plans Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Company (or, if appropriate, any committee administering the Company Stock Option Plans) shall adopt such resolutions or take such other actions as are required to effect the transactions contemplated by Section 2.10 in respect of all outstanding Options and thereafter the Board of Directors of the Company (or any such committee) shall adopt any such additional resolutions and take such additional actions as are required in furtherance of the foregoing.
