Each Exchange Option shall have an exercise price equal to the exercise price of the corresponding Interline NJ Option prior to such adjustment divided by the Common Stock Equity Consideration Per Share. The Exchange Options shall be administered by the board of directors of Holdco or such committee thereof as shall be designated from time to time by such board, and shall continue to be subject to the other terms and conditions to which the corresponding Interline NJ Option was subject immediately prior to the Effective Time. For the avoidance of doubt, other than as provided in this paragraph, the Exchange Option will be governed by the Stock Plan and the award agreement entered into thereunder.
