(as successor to Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association), as trustee;
WHEREAS, in connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, Company and Dealer entered into a Base Capped Call Transaction (the “Base Capped Call Transaction”) pursuant to an ISDA confirmation dated as of December 14, 2020, which supplements, forms a part of, and is subject to an agreement in the form of the 2002 ISDA Master Agreement, pursuant to which Company purchased from Dealer 762,000 call options (as amended, modified, terminated or unwound from time to time, the “Base Capped Call Confirmation”);
WHEREAS, in connection with the exercise of the over-allotment option by the initial purchasers of the Convertible Notes, Company and Dealer entered into an Additional Capped Call Transaction (the “Additional Capped Call Transaction” and, together with the Base Capped Call Transaction, the “Capped Call Transactions”) pursuant to an ISDA confirmation dated as of December 15, 2020, which supplements, forms a part of, and is subject to an agreement in the form of the 2002 ISDA Master Agreement, pursuant to which Company purchased from Dealer an additional 112,500 call options (as amended, modified, terminated or unwound from time to time, the “Additional Capped Call Confirmation” and, together with the Base Capped Call Confirmation, the “Capped Call Confirmations”);
WHEREAS, in anticipation of the consummation of transactions contemplated by the previously announced Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 9, 2022 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Take-Two-Interactive Software, Inc., Zebra MS I, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Take-Two, and Zebra MS II, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Take-Two (“Merger Sub 2”), Company has requested termination of the Capped Call Transactions;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of their mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby mutually covenant and agree as follows:
1. Defined Terms. Any capitalized term not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth for such term in the Capped Call Confirmations.
2. Termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Capped Call Confirmations, Company and Dealer agree that, effective on the date hereof and following the termination contemplated hereby, the Number of Options remaining outstanding under the Base Capped Call Transaction shall be reduced to zero and the Number of Options remaining outstanding under the Additional Capped Call Transaction shall be reduced to zero, and in connection therewith Dealer shall be required to pay to Company the Cash Settlement Amount on the Payment Date pursuant to Sections 3 and 4 below.
3. Payments and Deliveries. On the first Scheduled Trading Day following the final Averaging Date (as defined below) or, if such day is not a Clearance System Business Day, on the next Clearance System Business Day immediately following such day (the “Payment Date”), Dealer shall pay to Company in immediately available funds cash in an amount equal to the Cash Settlement Amount. The “Cash Settlement Amount” shall mean an amount in US Dollars determined by Dealer using linear interpolation with reference to the table set forth in Schedule A attached hereto.
4. Valuation. “Averaging Date” means June 27, 2022 and the four Scheduled Trading Days thereafter (the period of consecutive Scheduled Trading Days from and including June 27, 2022 through the final Averaging Date being collectively referred to as the “Termination Valuation Period”); provided, however, that if any such date is a Disrupted Day in whole, such date shall not constitute an Averaging Date, and an additional Averaging Date shall occur on the Scheduled Trading Day after the date that would otherwise be the final Averaging Date. “Average VWAP” means the arithmetic average of the VWAP Prices for each Averaging Date during the Termination Valuation Period. “VWAP Price” for any Scheduled Trading Day means the per Share volume-weighted average price as displayed under the heading “Bloomberg VWAP” on Bloomberg page TTWO <equity> AQR (or any successor thereto) in respect of the period from 9:30 am to 4:00 pm (New York City time) on such Scheduled Trading Day (or if such volume-weighted average price is unavailable, the market value of one Share on such Scheduled Trading Day for such time period, as determined by Dealer in a good faith, commercially reasonable manner). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) any Scheduled Trading Day in the Termination Valuation Period is a Disrupted Day in part or (ii) Dealer determines in its commercially reasonable judgment that on any Scheduled Trading Day during the Termination Valuation Period an extension of the Termination Valuation Period is reasonably necessary to preserve Dealer’s hedge unwind activity hereunder in light of existing liquidity conditions or to enable Dealer to effect sales of Shares in connection with its hedge unwind activity hereunder in a manner that would be in compliance with applicable legal, regulatory or self-regulatory requirements, or with internal policies and procedures, then the VWAP Price for such Scheduled Trading Day(s) shall be the volume-weighted average price per Share on such Scheduled Trading Day on the Exchange for such time period, as determined by Dealer in a commercially reasonable manner and the Cash Settlement Amount shall be adjusted by Dealer in its good faith, commercially reasonable discretion to account for such disruption and/or extension.
5. Representations and Warranties of Company. Company represents and warrants to Dealer on the date hereof that:
