Corporate Transactions. In the event of a Corporate Transaction, the Administrator or the board of directors of any entity assuming the obligations of the Company hereunder (the “Successor Board”), shall, as to the unexercised portion of the Option, either # make appropriate provision for the continuation of the Option by substituting on an equitable basis for the Shares then subject to the Option either the consideration payable with respect to the outstanding Shares in connection with the Corporate Transaction or securities of any successor or acquiring entity; or # upon written notice to the Participant, provide that the Option must be exercised (to the extent then exercisable, within a specified number of days of the date of such notice, at the end of which period the Option shall terminate); or # terminate the Option in exchange for payment of an amount equal to the consideration payable upon consummation of such Corporate Transaction to the holder of the number of Shares into which the Option would have been exercisable (either # to the extent then exercisable or, # at the discretion of the Administrator, any such Options being made partially or fully exercisable for purposes of this Subclause) less the aggregate exercise price thereof. For purposes of determining the payments to be made pursuant to Subclause # above, in the case of a Corporate Transaction the consideration for which, in whole or in part, is other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be valued at the fair value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors. For the avoidance of doubt, if the per share exercise price of the Option or portion thereof is equal to or greater than the Fair Market Value of one Share of Class A common stock, such Option may be cancelled with no payment due hereunder or otherwise in respect thereof. Except as the Administrator may otherwise determine, the Option will automatically terminate immediately upon the consummation of a Corporate Transaction,
