(6) | Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each Warrant that was outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into the right to receive, upon exercise of such Warrant, the same Merger Consideration as such holder would have been entitled to receive if such holder had been, immediately prior to the Effective Time, the holder of the number of shares then issuable upon exercise in full of such Warrant without regard to any limitations on exercise contained therein. |
