Each Company RSU Award granted on or after August 18, 2025 held by the reporting person and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into a time-based restricted stock unit award in respect of a number of shares of Nexstar common stock calculated based on the value of the Merger Consideration and Nexstar's stock price, subject to the same terms and conditions as applied to the Company RSU Award as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.
(4)	Each performance-based restricted stock unit or performance share award in respect of shares of Company Common Stock ("Company PSU Award") represents a contingent right to receive a certain number of shares of the underlying Company Common Stock.
(5)	Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each Company PSU Award was cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in respect of each share of Company Common Stock underlying the Company PSU Award, with the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to each Company PSU Award determined in accordance with the applicable award agreement.
