Any such amount payable hereunder with respect to any Company Option shall be referred to as an “Option Payment”, and the aggregate of all such amounts payable hereunder shall be referred to as the “Option Payments”.

Treatment of Company Options. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof) shall adopt resolutions that provide that, immediately prior to the Effective Time and contingent upon the Merger, each outstanding option to purchase Shares granted under a Company Stock Plan (other than any option granted under the Company Stock Purchase Plan) (the “Company Options”) shall be fully vested and cancelled and, in exchange therefor, each holder of any such cancelled Company Option shall be entitled to receive, in consideration of the cancellation of such Company Option and in settlement therefor, a payment in cash of an amount equal to the product of (i) the total number of Shares subject to such cancelled Company Option, multiplied by (ii) the excess, if any, of (A) the Merger Consideration over (B) the exercise price per Share subject to such cancelled Company Option, without interest (such amounts payable hereunder, the “Option Payments”); provided, however, that (1) any such Company Option with respect to which the exercise price per Share subject thereto is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration shall be cancelled in exchange for no consideration and (2) such Option Payments shall be reduced by the amount of any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.05. From and after the Effective Time, no Company Option shall be outstanding or exercisable, and each Company Option shall entitle the holder thereof only to the payment provided for in this Section 2.03(a).
Treatment of Company Options. (i) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger, each Company Option or portion of a Company Option that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Effective Time (after giving effect to any acceleration provided under the terms of the Company’s Plan under which the Company Option was granted and the applicable Option agreement) will be assumed by Issuer (“Assumed Options”). Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, each Assumed Option pursuant to this Section 2.7(e) will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions (including vesting terms and, to the extent applicable, holding period restrictions) set forth in the Company’s Plan and the Company Option agreements relating thereto, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except for administrative changes that are not adverse to the holder of the Assumed Option and except that (A) each such Assumed Option will be exercisable for that number of whole shares of Issuer Common Stock equal to the product of (1) the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (2) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Per Share Residual Amount, by (y) the Closing Price Per Share (the “Option Exchange Ratio”), and rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Issuer Common Stock and (B) the per share exercise price for the shares of Issuer Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Assumed Option will be equal to the quotient obtained 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 Option Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent; provided, however, that in the case of any Company Option to which Section 421 of the Code applies by reason of its qualification under Section 422 of the Code, the exercise price of the option, the number of shares purchasable pursuant to such option and the terms and conditions of exercise of such option will be determined in order to comply with Section 424 of the Code. It is intended that the assumption of the Assumed Options assumed by Issuer will comply with Section 409A of the Code and this Section 2.7(e) will be construed consistent with such intent.
Treatment of Company Options. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, a duly authorized committee thereof) shall adopt appropriate resolutions as are necessary to provide that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, each outstanding option to purchase shares of Company Common Stock granted under a Company Stock Plan (the “Company Options”) shall be fully vested and canceled and, in exchange therefor, each holder of any such canceled Company Option shall be entitled to receive, in consideration of the cancelation of such Company Option and in full settlement therefor, a payment in cash of an amount equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such canceled Company Option and (ii) the excess, if any, of (A) the Merger Consideration Value over (B) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock subject to such canceled Company Option, without interest (such amounts payable hereunder, the “Option Payments”); provided, however, that any such Company Option with respect to which the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock subject thereto is greater than or equal to the Merger Consideration Value shall be canceled in exchange for no consideration. From and after the Effective Time, no Company Option shall be exercisable, and each Company Option shall entitle the holder thereof only to the payment, if any, provided for in this Section 2.03(a). For purposes of this Agreement, “Merger Consideration Value” means the sum of (1) the Cash Consideration, (2) the product of (a) the Common Exchange Ratio and (b) the Average Parent Stock Price, and (3) the product of (a) the Preferred Exchange Ratio and (b) the face value of a Depositary Share.
Treatment of Company Options. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board (or, if appropriate, any committee thereof) shall adopt appropriate resolutions and take all other actions necessary and appropriate to provide that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, each unexpired and unexercised option to purchase Shares (the “Company Options”), under any stock option plan of the Company, including the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan or the 2010 Equity Incentive Award Plan, or any other plan, agreement or arrangement (the “Company Stock Option Plans”), whether or not then exercisable or vested, shall be cancelled and, in exchange therefor, each former holder of any such cancelled Company Option shall be entitled to receive, in consideration of the cancellation of such Company Option and in settlement therefor, a payment in cash (subject to any applicable withholding or other Taxes required by applicable Law) of an amount equal to the product of (i) the total number of Shares previously subject to such Company Option and (ii) 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”). From and after the Effective Time, any such cancelled Company Option shall no longer be exercisable by the former holder thereof, but shall only entitle such holder to the payment of the Option Payment.

Except as specifically provided above, following the Effective Time, each Exchanged Company Option shall continue to be governed by the same terms and conditions (including vesting and exercisability terms) as were applicable to the corresponding former Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time.
Treatment of Company Options. (a) At the Closing, each Company Option that is outstanding immediately prior to the Closing shall vest in full (to the extent then-unvested), and shall automatically be canceled and converted solely into the right to receive, subject to and conditioned upon the holder’s timely execution and delivery to the Company of an Option Acknowledgement and further subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including with respect to deductions and withholding and to Section 2.04(a), Section 2.06 and Article 11), (i) an amount in cash (the “Closing Option Consideration”) equal to (A) the excess of the Per Share Consideration Value over the per-share exercise price of such Company Option, multiplied by (B) the aggregate number of Company Ordinary Shares underlying such Company Option as of immediately prior to the Closing, less (C) such Award Holder’s Pro Rata Share of the Holdback Funds Value and the Equityholder Representative Expense Amount, and (ii) such Award Holder’s Pro Rata Share, to be paid in cash, of (A) the Holdback Funds Value and Equityholder Representative Expense Amount, if any, to be released pursuant to this Agreement and (B) the Shortfall Consideration, if any, pursuant to Section 2.02(b)(vi) (collectively, the amounts in clauses (i) and (ii), the “Option Consideration”).
