("Parent"), and King Acquisition Co., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub") in exchange for cash consideration of $2.75 per share, without interest (less any applicable withholding taxes). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer continuing as the surviving corporation (the "Merger").

This grant was cancelled on the effective date of the Merger in exchange for a cash payment equal to the number of restricted stock units multiplied by $2.75.
( 4)  No expiration date.
( 5)  1/3 of this grant was scheduled to vest on October 20, 2015 and 1/6 every six months thereafter. This grant was cancelled on the effective date of the Merger in exchange for a cash payment equal to the number of restricted stock units multiplied by $2.75.
