 (“Company DSU Awards”) and Company Performance Stock Units (“Company PSU Awards”): Each outstanding Company RSU Award, Company DSU Award and Company PSU Award will be canceled and converted into a time-based restricted

 performance periods ending prior to the Effective Time, actual performance, (ii) for in-flight performance periods, actual performance through the Effective Time and extrapolated forecasted performance                                            
 for the remainder of the performance period and (iii) for performance periods that have not commenced as of the Effective Time, target performance.                                                                                                  |

 any individual who is not employee of the Company as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be treated as net exercised and cancelled for the Merger Consideration in respect of each Company Share subject to the Company Option Award, less a 
 number of shares with a value equal to the applicable exercise price. Each other outstanding Company Option Award will be converted into an option to purchase a number of Company Shares equal to the number of shares subject to such Company Option   
 Award immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, at an exercise price equal to the exercise price of the Company Option Award divided by the Exchange Ratio.                                                              |
