( 2 )Disposed of pursuant to Section 3.11(a) of the Merger Agreement, whereby each Issuer vested in-the-money stock option was cancelled and exchanged for an amount in cash, less any applicable tax withholdings, equal to the product of (i) the number of Issuer shares subject to the Issuer vested in-the-money stock option, multiplied by (ii) the Equity Award Cash Consideration, less the per share exercise price of such Issuer vested in-the-money stock option ( 3 )Disposed of pursuant to Section 3.11(a) and 3.11(b) of the Merger Agreement, respectively, whereby (i) Issuer vested in-the-money stock options with respect to 102,666 shares of Issuer common stock were cancelled and exchanged for an amount in cash, less any applicable tax withholdings, equal to the product of (x) 102,666 multiplied by (y) the Equity Award Cash Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement), less the per share exercise price of such Issuer vested in-the-money stock option; and (ii) Issuer unvested in-the-money stock options with respect to 7,334 shares of Issuer common stock were canceled and replaced with a number of restricted stock units with respect to shares of Brocade common stock, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares, equal to the product of (x) 7,334 and (y) the quotient obtained by dividing the Equity Award Cash Consideration, less the per share exercise price of such Issuer unvested in-the-money stock option, by the Parent Stock Price.
