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.

At the Effective Time, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof: (i) each such Cash-Out Option shall terminate and be cancelled as of immediately prior to the Effective Time in exchange for the right to receive, in accordance with this Section 4.6(a), a lump sum cash payment in the amount equal to (i) the number of Shares subject to the Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (ii) the excess, if any, of the dollar value of the Cash Election Consideration (the “Cash Award Consideration”), over the applicable exercise price (the “Option Payment”). The Option Payment (if any) payable under this Section 4.6(a) to each former holder of a Company Option that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be paid through the Surviving Company’s payroll to such former holder as soon as practicable following the Effective Time (but in any event not later than ten (10) Business Days thereafter), net of any Taxes withheld pursuant to Section 4.2(h); and (ii) each Rollover Option shall be assumed and converted automatically into a fully-vested option (an “Adjusted Stock Option”) to purchase, on substantially the same terms and conditions (other than vesting) as were applicable under such Rollover Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, the number of shares of Series C Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares) equal to the product of (A) the number of Shares subject to such Rollover Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (B) the Option Exchange Ratio, which Adjusted Stock Option shall have an exercise price per share of Series C Common Stock equal to the quotient (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) obtained by dividing (x) the exercise price per Share subject to such Rollover Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (y) the Option Exchange Ratio. The “Option Exchange Ratio” shall equal the quotient (rounded to four decimal places) obtained by dividing (i) the weighted average price of the Class A Shares on the NASDAQ on the Trading Day immediately prior to the date of the Effective Time by (ii) the Average Parent Stock Price.

Stock Rights In the event of a Change in Control, all restricted Company stock and all options, stock appreciation rights, and/or other stock rights held by Executive with respect to Company stock that are exempt from Section 409A (“Stock Rights”) which are not fully vested (and exercisable, if applicable) shall become fully vested and exercisable as of a time established by the Board, which shall be no later than a time preceding the Change in Control which allows Executive to exercise the Stock Rights and cause the stock acquired thereby to participate in the Change in Control transaction. If the Change in Control transaction is structured so that stock participating therein at one time is or may be treated differently from stock participating therein at a different time (e.g., a tender offer followed by a squeeze-out merger), the Board shall interpret this Subsection (d) to provide for the required vesting acceleration in a manner designed to allow Executive to exercise the Stock Rights and cause the stock acquired thereby to participate in the earliest portion of the Change in Control transaction. If the consummation of a Change in Control transaction is uncertain (e.g., a tender offer in which the tender of a minimum number of shares is a condition to closing, or a voted merger or proxy contest in which a minimum number of votes is a condition to closing), the Board shall apply this Subsection (d) by using its best efforts to determine if and when the Change in Control transaction is likely to close, and proceeding accordingly. To the extent necessary to implement this Subsection d), each agreement reflecting a Stock Right, and each plan, if any, pursuant to which a Stock Right is issued, if any, shall be deemed amended.
