At the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), each share of Cooper Tire's common stock, par value of $1.00 per share converted into the right to receive (A) $41.75 in cash, without interest, and (B) 0.907 of a share of Goodyear common stock, no par value ("Merger Consideration"). On June 7, 2021, the closing price for Goodyear common stock was $19.39.

( 3 )The phantom stock units were accrued over time under Cooper Tire's equity plans, and were generally to be settled in cash upon the reporting person's termination of service as a director.
