F3 Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, at the Merger Effective Time, each outstanding award of time-based restricted stock units ("RSUs") of the Issuer ("Issuer RSUs") held by the Reporting Person was assumed by Smurfit Westrock and converted into (a) an award of time-based RSUs corresponding to the number of ordinary shares of Smurfit Westrock (rounded down to the nearest whole number of ordinary shares) equal to the number of shares of the Issuer's common stock subject to such Issuer RSUs as of immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, and (b) an unvested $5 cash award with respect to each such Issuer RSU. Each award in (a) and (b) will be subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting schedules) as applied to the Issuer RSUs immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time.
