At the effective time of the Galera Merger (the "Galera Effective Time"), each outstanding share of Galera common stock (excluding any shares of Galera common stock held by stockholders who had exercised and perfected appraisal rights for such shares) was converted into the right to receive 0.7019 shares of Parent common stock (the "Galera Exchange Ratio").

F4

At the Galera Effective Time, each outstanding Galera stock option with an exercise price per share less than $15.62 (each, an "In-the-Money Option"), which was the closing trading price of a share of Galera common stock on the last full trading day on which the Galera common stock was traded prior to the date of the Galera Effective Time, became fully vested and was converted into shares of Parent common stock determined by (i) multiplying the number of shares of Galera common stock underlying the In-the-Money Option by the Galera Exchange Ratio (rounded down to the nearest whole share) then (ii) subtracting the number of shares of Parent common stock with a value equal to the exercise price and withholding taxes each required to be paid with respect to the net exercise of the In-the-Money Option, calculated pursuant to the formula set forth in Section 2.6(i) of the Merger Agreement.

Remarks

At the Galera Effective Time, each outstanding Galera stock option that was not an In-the-Money Option (each, a "Non-In-the-Money Option") was cancelled for no consideration, which cancellation is exempt from Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to Rule 16a-4(d) and Rule 16b-6(d) thereunder.
