• Cash-out of vested options and restricted stock units then held by Mr. Robinson;

• Grant of cash payment awards in lieu of suspended equity awards, as described above, to Mr. Robinson and the cash-out of the vested portion of such awards;

• Conversion of Mr. Robinson’s unvested cash payment and equity awards into post closing cash payment awards subject to continued vesting on the original vesting schedule of such awards (including double trigger accelerated vesting under the Company’s Change in Control Plan upon a qualifying termination of service); and

• Release in favor of the Company in respect of equity related compensation relating to service with the Company prior to the change in control, contingent on receipt of consideration due under the Equity Award Treatment Agreement.

Amendment to Change in Control Plan

The Company maintains a change in control plan (the “Change in Control Plan”) applicable to various officers of the Company. At the Board meeting held on February 9, 2015, the Company amended the Change in Control Plan to (1) acknowledge and confirm that certain cash payment awards are to be included in the vesting protection provided for “Equity Awards” under the Change in Control Plan and (2) add Mark Robinson, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, as a participant in the Change in Control Plan to the extent that the benefits under the Change in Control Plan are more favorable to Mr. Robinson than those under his Offer Letter with the Company, dated May 3, 2013 (the “Original Robinson Letter”). The effect of adding Mr. Robinson to the Change in Control Plan is to provide him with double-trigger severance protection at the same level as similarly situated executives in the company, which is 12 months base salary plus target annual bonus.

The Company disclosed the terms of the Original Robinson Letter previously on its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 7, 2013, such original terms are hereby incorporated herein by reference.
