In addition, upon a Company MSA Termination, if less than 50% of the LINN Incentive Units are vested at such one-third time, an additional ten percent (1/310%) of the Options which LINN Incentive Units (or such lesser amount as is sufficient to cause 50% of the LINN Incentive Units to be vested) will vest on each such anniversary shall be referred to herein effective as of the Company MSA Termination Date; provided that if the Company MSA Termination occurs as a “Tranche”result of a LINN Event, then such vesting shall not occur.

In addition, as of the end of the MSA Transition Period, vesting will be deemed to have occurred on a monthly basis at the rate of 0.83% for each month following the immediately preceding Annual Vesting Date.
