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.
