("Merger Sub I") and Sunshine Merger Sub II, LLC ("Merger Sub II"), pursuant to which Merger Sub I merged with and into Private Company Sonder ("First Merger") with Private Company Sonder as the surviving corporation and immediately following the First Merger, the surviving corporation merged with and into Merger Sub II with Merger Sub II as the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent which changed its name to Sonder Holdings Inc. (the "Issuer"). The foregoing transaction is referred to as the "Business Combination".
( 2 )Pursuant to an earnout provision in the Merger Agreement, the Reporting Person is entitled to receive his pro rata portion of additional shares of Common Stock, for no additional consideration, if the daily volume weighted average price (based on such trading day) of one share exceeds certain thresholds for a period of at least 10 days out of 20 consecutive trading days, as adjusted, at any time during the 5 year period beginning on the 180th day following the closing of the Business Combination.
( 3 )Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the closing of the Business Combination, then outstanding and unexercised options of Private Company Sonder ("Sonder Stock Options") were automatically converted into an option to acquire a certain number of shares of the Issuer's Common Stock (pursuant to the Option Exchange Ratio as described in the Merger Agreement) at an adjusted exercise price per share (the "Rollover Option"). Each Rollover Option is subject to the same terms and conditions as applicable to the corresponding Sonder Stock Option immediately prior to the closing of Business Combination, including applicable vesting conditions.
