Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on July 14, 2026, the Issuer effected a holding company reorganization, and Merger Sub merged with and into HoldCo (the "Merger"), with HoldCo surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.

F4At the Effective Time, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each outstanding restricted stock unit ("RSU") became fully vested and cancelled and converted into the right to receive (A) an amount in cash, without interest, and subject to deduction for any required withholding tax, equal to the product of (i) the number of Shares subject to such RSU and (ii) the Closing Amount, plus (B) one CVR for each Share subject to such RSU.
F5Immediately prior to the Effective Time, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each outstanding performance stock unit award ("PSU") automatically converted into and was substituted with a restricted stock unit award (each, a "Converted PSU") with respect to a number of Shares equal to either (x) for each PSU granted on or after March 1, 2026, the excess of (A) 100% of the "Target Shares" (as the term "Target Shares" is defined and set forth in the applicable award agreement governing such PSU) underlying such PSU over (B) the number of "Target Shares" as to which, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, the "Performance-Requirement" has been achieved, or (y) for each PSU granted prior to March 1, 2026, the excess of (A) the percentage of the "Target Shares" underlying such PSU as to which the "Performance-Requirement" would be satisfied if the "Closing Price" (as defined in the applicable award agreement governing such PSU) were equal to the Closing Amount over
F6(Continued from footnote 5) (B) the number of "Target Shares" as to which, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, the "Performance-Requirement" has been achieved.
