F2
At the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), each share of WBD's Series A common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Series A Common Stock"), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (except as otherwise provided in the Merger Agreement) was converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $31.01666668 (the "Per Share Merger Consideration"), without interest.
F3
Under the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each outstanding unvested restricted stock unit ("RSU") was cancelled and converted into the contingent right to receive an amount in cash (without interest and subject to applicable withholding taxes) (a "Converted Cash Award") equal in value to the product of (x) the total number of shares of Series A Common Stock subject to such RSU and (y) the Per Share Merger Consideration. Each such Converted Cash Award so assumed and converted continues to have, and is subject to, the same vesting conditions as applied to the corresponding equity award from which it was converted immediately prior to the Effective Time, including "double trigger" termination protection.
F4
Under the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each outstanding unvested performance restricted stock unit ("PRSU") that was previously certified upon achievement of the applicable performance metric was cancelled and converted into the contingent right to receive a Converted Cash Award equal in value to the product of (x) the Per Share Merger Consideration and (y) the total number of shares of Series A Common Stock subject to such PRSU, determined based on the previous certification by the compensation committee of WBD's board of directors. Each such Converted Cash Award so assumed and converted continues to have, and is subject to, the same vesting conditions (other than performance-vesting conditions rendered inoperative by the Merger) as applied to the corresponding equity award from which it was converted immediately prior to the Effective Time, including "double trigger" termination protection.
