2. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each vested option to purchase shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Shares") of the Issuer with an exercise price that is less than the $0.91 that is outstanding immediately prior to the date and time at which the Merger became effective (the "Effective Time") will terminate and be cancelled immediately prior to the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive (a) one non-transferable contractual contingent value right and (b) a lump sum cash payment equal in amount to (i) the number of vested Shares underlying such vested option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (ii) the excess, if any, of $0.91 over the exercise price per Share underlying such vested option, less any required withholding taxes.

3.
