Not less than five Business Days prior to the Subsidiary Merger Effective Time, the Company shall deliver to Priveterra a schedule setting forth all of the Subsidiary Options and the holders thereof, and in respect of each such Subsidiary Option, the number of Subsidiary Rollover Options into which such Subsidiary Option will convert at the Subsidiary Merger Effective Time and the per share exercise price of such Subsidiary Rollover Options (the “Subsidiary Rollover Option Schedule”)in an amount, at an exercise price and subject to such terms and conditions determined as set forth below. Each Subsidiary Rollover Option shall (1) be exercisable for, and represent the right to purchase, a number of shares of Company Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to (a) the number of shares of Subsidiary Common Stock subject to the corresponding Subsidiary Option immediately prior to the effective time of the Subsidiary Merger, multiplied by (b) the Subsidiary Option Exchange Ratio, and (2) have an exercise price per share of Company Common Stock (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) subject to such Subsidiary Rollover Option equal to (a) the exercise price per share of Subsidiary Common Stock applicable to the corresponding Subsidiary Option immediately prior to the effective time of the Subsidiary Merger, divided by (b) the Subsidiary Option Exchange Ratio. The Subsidiary Option Schedule shall be subject to review and approval by Priveterra, with such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.. Priveterra and the Company shall cooperate in good faith to approve and finalize the Subsidiary Option Schedule at least two Business Days prior to the Subsidiary Merger Effective Time. Each Subsidiary Rollover Option shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including applicable vesting, expiration and forfeiture provisions) that applied to the corresponding Subsidiary Option immediately prior to the Subsidiary Merger Effective Timeeffective time of the Subsidiary Merger, except for terms rendered inoperative by reason of the transactions contemplated by the operative documents of the Subsidiary Merger or for such other immaterial administrative or ministerial changes as the Company Board (or the compensation committee of the Company Board) may determine in good faith are appropriate to effectuate the administration of the Subsidiary Rollover Options. Such conversion shall occur in a manner intended to comply with (x) for any Subsidiary Rollover Option that is an Incentive Stock Option, the requirements of Section 424 of the Code, and (y) in each case, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. For purposes of this Agreement, “Subsidiary Option Exchange Ratio” shall mean a fraction, the numerator of which is the fair market value per share of Subsidiary Common Stock as of immediately prior to the closing of the Subsidiary Merger, as determined by the mutual agreement of the Company and Priveterra (such mutual agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and the denominator of which is the Closing Equity Value Per Share.

Each Rollover RSU Award shall represent the right to purchase a number of shares of Class A Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the corresponding Company RSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio. Each Rollover Option shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including applicable time-based and performance-based vesting, deferral, expiration and forfeiture provisions) that applied to the corresponding Company RSU Award immediately prior to the Effective Time, except for terms rendered inoperative by reason of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents or for such other immaterial administrative or ministerial changes as the Priveterra Board (or the compensation committee of the Priveterra Board) may determine in good faith are appropriate to effectuate the administration of the Rollover RSU Awards.
