(e) If the Consolidated Net Adjusted EBITDA, Fiber-To-The-Home & Subsidy Passings or Cost to Pass performance measured under this Section 2 falls between two Performance Share Unit goals shown in the applicable table in paragraph 2(a), 2(b) or 2(c), then the number of Performance Share Units earned under paragraphs 2(a), 2(b) and 2(c) shall be calculated using linear interpolation.

Death or Disability. If the Participant remains in the continuous employ of the Company or an Affiliate from the Date of Grant until the date that the Participant’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates ends on account of the Participant’s death or Disability before any of the Performance Share Units have vested, then the Participant will vest in a prorated number of the Performance Share Units on the date that such employment terminates.

Change in Control. This Section 4 applies to the Participant if the Participant remains in the continuous employ of the Company or an Affiliate from the Date of Grant until a Control Change Date that occurs after the Date of Grant. (a) Upon a Change in Control, the Performance Share Units may be assumed by, or a substitute award granted by, the surviving entity in the Change in Control, in accordance with Section 15(c) of the Plan. In the event of such assumption or substitution, subject to adjustment per the Plan to reflect the Change in Control transaction, the number of Performance Share Units to be so assumed or substituted shall be calculated as follows: (i) if the Change in Control Date occurs during the first two years of the three-year performance period applicable to this Award, then 100% of the target number of Performance Share Units shall be converted to time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”); or (ii) if the Change in Control Date occurs during the third year of the performance period, then the Performance Share Units shall be converted to RSUs based on actual performance-to-date, as determined by the Committee in its discretion and in accordance with the Award, provided, however, that if actual performance is deemed not determinable, then 100% of the target number of Performance Share Units shall be converted to RSUs. (b) Any Performance Share Units that are converted to RSUs pursuant to Section 4(a) above shall be eligible to vest in accordance with the original vesting date and terms of this Award (except the performance-based vesting goals shall no longer apply). In addition, the RSUs shall automatically vest in full in the event of a Participant’s involuntary termination without “cause” or upon a termination for “good reason” (each such term as defined in the Severance Agreement between the Participant and Shentel Management Company dated as of «Severance_Agrmt_Date»). (c) If such surviving entity does not assume or substitute the Performance Share Units, provided that the Participant complies with the Restrictive Covenants in Section 9 below, any outstanding Performance Share Units that are not vested on or before the Control Change Date shall be vested on the Control Change Date based on 100% of the target performance. As to each such Performance Share Unit, an equal number of shares of nonforfeitable Common Stock will be issued to the Participant as provided in Section 6 if issued on or before the closing of the Change in Control, or the Participant will receive the same consideration as other shareholders for an equal number of shares in the Change in Control transaction if issued after the closing of the Change in Control; provided that in lieu of the issuance of shares of Common Stock the Committee, in its discretion and without the need of the Participant’s consent, may provide that a single cash payment will be made in exchange for the cancellation of the Performance Share Units that become vested under this Section 4, in accordance with Section 15(c) of the Plan. The payment for each such Performance Share Unit shall be paid on the Control Change Date and shall be an amount that is equal to the value per share of Common Stock received by shareholders in the Change in Control transaction.

Settlement. As soon as practicable after the Participant vests in any of the Performance Share Units, but in all events no later than March 15 of the year following the date of vesting, the Committee shall direct the transfer agent to issue shares of Common Stock to the Participant (or the estate of the Participant in the case of the Participant’s death on or before such date); provided, however, that any shares of Common Stock issuable shall be issued on the Control Change Date if the Performance Share Units vest under Section 4(c). The number of shares of Common Stock issued to or on behalf of the Participant will equal the number of Performance Share Units that have vested; provided, however, that only whole shares of Common Stock will be issued and a cash payment will be made in settlement of any fractional share of Common Stock that otherwise would be issued to the Participant. 7.
