Stock Options and Warrants At the Effective Time of the Merger, each outstanding option to purchase Company Common Stock (each, a "Company Stock Option"), whether or not granted under the Company Option Plan, and all outstanding warrants to purchase Company Common Stock the outstanding whether or not vested, shall by virtue of the Merger be assumed by Parent. Each Company Stock Option and Warrant so assumed by Parent under this Agreement will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions of such options immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger (including, without limitation, any repurchase rights or vesting provisions and provisions regarding the acceleration of vesting on certain transactions), except that (i) each Company Stock Option and Warrant will be exercisable (or will become exercisable in accordance with its terms) for that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the number of Company Shares that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Stock Option or Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock if the said product is equal to or less than the fraction of one-half (.5) of one Parent Common Stock or rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock if the said product is greater than the fraction of one-half (.5) of one Parent Common Stock, and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed Company Stock Option and Warrant will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per Company Share at which such Company Stock Option and Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Parent shall comply with the terms of all such Company Stock Options and Warrants and use its best efforts to ensure, to the extent required by, and subject to the provisions of, the Company Option Plan and permitted under the Code or other relevant laws and regulations that any Company Stock Option that qualified for tax treatment under Section 424(b) of the Code prior to the Effective Time of the Merger continue to so qualify after the Effective Time of the Merger. Parent shall take all corporate actions necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock for delivery upon exercise of all Company Stock Options and Warrants on the terms set forth in this Section 2.03(b).
Stock Options; Warrants (a) At the Effective Time and without any action on the part of the parties hereto, (i) the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan, the 1993 Incentive Stock Option, Nonqualified Stock Option and Restricted Stock Purchase Plan (together, the “Company Stock Plans”) and (ii) each unexercised and unexpired stock option that is then outstanding under the Company Stock Plans or any other plan or arrangement under which the Company or its subsidiaries grants stock options, whether or not exercisable and whether or not vested (the “Company Options”), shall be assumed by Parent and such Company Options shall be converted into options to purchase Parent Common Stock (individually an “Assumed Option” and collectively the “Assumed Options”). Each Assumed Option shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions as set forth in the applicable Company Stock Plan and any agreement evidencing the grant of such Assumed Option, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that, as of the Effective Time, (i) the Assumed Options shall be exercisable for whole shares of Parent Common Stock, and the number of such shares shall be equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Assumed Option, whether or not exercisable, immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock, (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Assumed Option shall be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such Assumed Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent, (iii) all references in the Company Stock Plan and the agreement evidencing the Assumed Option to the Company shall be deemed to be references to Parent and (iv) all references in the Company Stock Plan and the agreement evidencing the Company Option to Company Common Stock shall be deemed to be references to Parent Common Stock. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.2, the conversion of any Assumed Options (regardless of whether such options qualify as “incentive stock options” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) into options to purchase Parent Common Stock shall be made in such a manner as would not constitute a “modification” of such Assumed Options within the meaning of Section 424 of the Code.
