(continued in footnote 7)

7. (Continued from footnote 6) Each option that was outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time that had a per Share exercise price greater than or equal to the Cash Amount, and less than $2.71, was cancelled and converted into the right to receive, for each Share underlying such option, upon the occurrence of any Milestone Payment, (i) an amount in cash equal to the Cash Amount, plus the applicable Milestone Payment, plus any Milestone Payment previously paid with respect to such Share, minus the per Share exercise price of the option, minus (ii) any amount previously paid out for such option pursuant to any previous Milestone Payment.
