of the shares of common stock subject to a particular option grant.
If your options are properly tendered and accepted for exchange, unless
we terminate this offer pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof, you will be
entitled to receive, on or about the first business day that is at least six
months and one day following the date we accept the options tendered for
exchange, new options to purchase the number of shares of our common stock that
is equal to the same number of shares subject to the eligible options that you
tendered, subject to adjustments for any stock splits, stock dividends and
similar events that occur prior to the grant date of the new options.
IF YOU ARE NOT A U.S. EMPLOYEE OR DIRECTOR OF PFSWEB, INC. OR ONE OF
OUR SUBSIDIARIES FROM THE DATE YOU TENDER OPTIONS THROUGH THE DATE WE GRANT THE
NEW OPTIONS, YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE ANY NEW OPTIONS OR ANY OTHER CONSIDERATION IN
EXCHANGE FOR YOUR TENDERED OPTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN ACCEPTED FOR EXCHANGE.
PARTICIPATION IN THE OFFER DOES NOT CONFER UPON YOU THE RIGHT TO REMAIN AN
EMPLOYEE OR DIRECTOR OF PFSWEB OR ANY OF OUR SUBSIDIARIES.
This means that if you die or quit or we terminate your employment or
services as a director prior to the date we grant the new options, you will not
receive anything for the options that you tendered and we canceled.
