Option Adjustment Methodology
• | Each existing FRP stock option will be replaced with an option to purchase FRP common stock and a separate option to purchase Patriot common stock with a combined intrinsic (in-the-money) value equal to the intrinsic value of the existing option. |
• | Each option will retain its existing vesting schedule and expiration date. |
• | Each replacement option will preserve the same ratio of the option exercise price to fair market value. |
• | The intrinsic value of the replacement options will be allocated between FRP and Patriot based on the relative total market capitalization of FRP and Patriot. |
• | The intrinsic value of the existing options will be determined based on the closing price of Patriot stock on the date of the spin-off (the spin-off occurs after market close). If FRP stock is being traded “ex-dividend” and Patriot stock is being traded “when issued,” the combined values will be used. |
• | The relative values of FRP and Patriot stock will be determined based on the market capitalization of each company, using “ex-dividend” and “when issued” prices on the date of the spin-off, if so traded, or based on the relative closing prices on the next trading day, if there is no “when issued” and “ex-dividend” trading. |
• | If the stock trades “when issued” and “ex-dividend,” the intrinsic value of the replacement options will be determined using the closing prices on the date of the spin-off. |
• | If there is no “when issued” and “ex-dividend” trading, the intrinsic value of the replacement options will be determined using the closing prices on the day after the spin-off. |
Note: | The outstanding FRP stock options held by David H. deVilliers, Jr. will be replaced with options to purchase FRP common stock with the same intrinsic value as the existing FRP stock options, and the outstanding FRP stock options held by Robert E. Sandlin will be replaced with options to purchase Patriot common stock with the same intrinsic value as the existing Patriot stock options. |
