Advisors Opinion of Centerview Partners LLC Summary of Centerview Financial Analysis Discounted Cash Flow Analysis on page 35 to read as follows:
In performing this analysis, Centerview calculated a range of equity values for the shares of Company Common Stock by
(a) discounting to present value as of September 30, 2020 using discount rates ranging from 9.0% to 11.0% (reflecting Centerviews analysis of the Companys weighted average cost of capital) and using a mid-year convention: (i) the forecasted risk-adjusted, after-tax unlevered free cash flows of the Company over the period beginning on October 1, 2020 and ending on
December 31, 2045, utilized by Centerview based on the Management Projections, (ii) an implied terminal value of the Company, calculated by Centerview by assuming that unlevered free cash flows would decline in perpetuity after
December 31, 2045 at a rate of free cash flow decline of 80.0% year-over-year in perpetuity, and (iii) tax savings from usage of the Companys federal net operating losses of $351 million as of December 31, 2019 and the
Companys estimated future losses as provided by the Company management and (b) adding to the foregoing results the Companys estimated net cash of $900 million as of September 30, 2020, as set forth in the Internal Data,
and the present value of the estimated costs associated with future equity raises set forth in the Internal Data. Centerview divided the result of the foregoing calculations by the Companys fully diluted outstanding shares of Company Common
Stock (determined using the treasury stock method and taking into account approximately 53.3 million basic shares outstanding and the dilutive impact of 4.7 million outstanding in-the-money options with a weighted-average exercise price of $42.60, 0.9 million restricted stock units and 0.1 million performance stock units, based on information provided by the Company
management) as of October 1, 2020 as set forth in the Internal Data, resulting in a range of implied equity values per share of Company Common Stock of $150.75 to $191.10, rounded to the nearest $0.05. Centerview then compared this range to the
Consideration of $225.00 per share to be paid to the holders of shares of Company Common Stock (other than Excluded Shares) pursuant to the Merger Agreement.
