(d) Exchange Procedures. Upon receipt of a duly executed Letter of Transmittal from a holder of Company Shares, as applicable, and Company Certificates representing the shares held by such member (if such Company Certificates are in physical form), the Exchange Agent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, issue to such holder the applicable Company Closing Merger Consideration pursuant to Sections 2.01, and such Company Certificate shall forthwith be canceled. Until so surrendered, each outstanding Company Certificate that prior to the Effective Time represented Company Shares (other than for the shares to be canceled pursuant to Section 2.02(e) or that are subject to the provisions of Section 2.03) shall be deemed from and after the Effective Time, for all purposes, to evidence only the right to receive the portion of the Company Closing Merger Consideration.

(e) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares of Parentco Common Stock. No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to the Parentco Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Company Certificate, Company Warrant or Company Note with respect to the shares of Parentco Common Stock represented thereby, until the holder of such Company Certificate, Company Warrant or Company Note shall surrender such Certificate, Company Warrant or Company Note.

(g) No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, no certificates or scrip representing a fractional share of Parentco Common Stock will be issued to any of the members of the Company in connection with payment of the Company Closing Merger Consideration, and to the extent a fractional share of Parentco Common Stock would have been issuable to a member of the Company, as applicable, as part of the Company Closing Merger Consideration after aggregating all fractional shares due to such stockholder, Parentco shall round the Company Closing Merger Consideration payable to such stockholder to the nearest whole number.

(h) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to the holders of Company Shares for six (6) months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parentco, upon demand, and any holders of Company Shares or Company Warrants, as applicable, who have not theretofore complied with this Section 2.02 shall thereafter look only to Parentco for the Company Closing Merger Consideration and any dividends or other distributions with respect to the Parentco Common Stock to which they are entitled pursuant to Section 2.02(c).

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of Parentco, the Surviving Company, Merger Sub and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from amounts (including shares, options or other property) otherwise payable, issuable or transferable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Company Shares or Company Warrants such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment, issuance or transfer under the Code or any provision of state, local or non-U.S. Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld and timely paid to the applicable Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid, issued or transferred to the holder of Company Shares or Company Warrants in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

(k) Lost Certificates. If any Company Certificate, Company Warrant or Company Note, as the case may be, shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Company Certificate, Company Warrant or Company Note to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parentco, the posting by such person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as Parentco may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Company Certificate, Company Warrant or Company Note, the Exchange Agent will issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Certificate, Company Warrant or Company Note, the Company Closing Merger Consideration that such holder has elected or been deemed to have elected to receive pursuant to, and in accordance with, the provisions of this Section 2.02, including, any dividends or other distributions to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 2.02(c).

The Exchange Agent shall deliver the Cancelled Note Consideration, if any, to each holder of a Cancelled Convertible Note in respect thereof at the Effective Time as set forth in this Section 2.05(b) upon receipt of a note cancellation agreement in form reasonably acceptable to Parentco for each such Cancelled Convertible Note, together with a letter of transmittal, in a form reasonably acceptable to Parentco, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto.

From and after the Effective Time, each Company Option shall no longer represent the right to acquire Company Shares.

Section 2.07 Treatment of Company RSUs. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company RSU that is then outstanding and unvested shall be automatically converted into a restricted stock unit award with respect to a number of shares of Parentco Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of the number of Company Shares subject to such Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio. Except as provided above, each such converted Company RSU shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting provisions) as were applicable to the corresponding Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that all references to the “Company” in the Company Plan and award agreements will be references to Parentco. From and after the Effective Time, each Company RSU shall no longer represent the right to acquire Company Shares.

Section 2.08 Treatment of Unvested Company Shares. If any Company Share issued pursuant to the Company Plan is subject to any vesting conditions immediately prior to the Effective Time and such vesting conditions are not accelerated prior to or concurrent with the Effective Time (each, an “Unvested Company Share”), then the shares of Parentco common stock that are received with respect to such Unvested Company Share shall be subject to the same vesting conditions as the Unvested Company Share immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, that prior to the issuance of such shares of Parentco common stock, Parentco shall have the right to require that the holder thereof enter into a vesting agreement with Parentco that reflects such vesting conditions.
