4. In connection with the consummation of the Merger, each reported restricted stock unit ("RSU") was cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash payment (without interest, and less applicable tax withholdings and other authorized deductions) equal to the product of (x) the excess of $31.50 per share, multiplied by (y) the number of shares subject to such RSU.
