Special Acceleration of Option. (a) Should a Change in Control transaction occur during Director's period of Board service, then the Option, to the extent outstanding at that time but not otherwise exercisable for the Option Shares, shall automatically vest on an accelerated basis so that the Option shall, immediately prior to the effective date of such Change in Control, vest and become exercisable for all of the Option Shares and may be exercised for any or all of those Option Shares as fully vested shares of Class A Common Stock. (b) Immediately following the Change in Control, the Option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding, except to the extent assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or otherwise continued in effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction. (c) If the Option is assumed in connection with a Change in Control or otherwise continued in effect, then the Option shall be appropriately adjusted, immediately after such Change in Control, to apply to the number and class of securities into which the shares of Class A Common Stock subject to the Option would have been converted in consummation of such Change in Control had those shares actually been outstanding at the time. Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the Exercise Price, provided the aggregate Exercise Price shall remain the same. To the extent the actual holders of the Corporation's outstanding Class A Common Stock receive cash consideration for their Class A common stock in consummation of the Change in Control, the successor corporation may, in connection with the assumption or continuation of this Option, substitute one or more shares of its own common stock with a fair market value equivalent to the cash consideration paid per share of Class A Common Stock in such Change in Control, provided such common stock is readily tradable on an established U.S. securities exchange or market.
