(the "Company"), Compass, Inc. ("Compass"), and Velocity Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Compass ("Merger Sub"), Merger Sub merged with and into the Company (the "Merger"), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Compass.
F2 Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each share of Company common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Company common stock"), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), was converted into the right to receive 1.436 fully paid and nonassessable shares (the "Exchange Ratio") of class A common stock of Compass (the "Compass Shares") and, if applicable, cash in lieu of fractional shares.
F3 Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each outstanding PSU award was canceled and converted into a restricted stock unit ("RSU") award in respect of Compass Shares covering that number of Compass Shares equal to (i) the number of shares of Company common stock subject to the award (based on performance goals determined in the manner set forth in the Merger Agreement) multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio. The amount reported in this line reflects the number of shares earned under subsection (i) of the prior sentence.
