Agreement and Plan of Merger regulatory

"pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 21, 2025"

An Agreement and Plan of Merger is a formal document where two companies agree to combine into one, outlining how the process will happen. It’s like a step-by-step plan for merging, and it matters because it shows both sides have agreed on the details before the official transition takes place.

Merger Consideration financial

"was converted into the right to receive $52.00 per share in cash, without interest (the "Merger Consideration")"

Merger consideration is the total payment a company or buyer offers to shareholders of a target company in exchange for combining the two businesses, and can include cash, shares in the surviving company, debt assumption, or a mix of these. Investors care because the form and amount affect the deal’s value, tax consequences, immediate cash received versus future ownership, and the risk and upside of holding new shares — similar to choosing between cash now or stock that could grow later.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan financial

"Includes shares purchased under the Issuer's Employee Stock Purchase Plan."

An employee stock purchase plan is a company program that lets workers buy shares through small payroll deductions, often at a discount to the market price and after a set offering period. Think of it like a workplace savings plan that turns into ownership: it encourages employees to share in the company’s success and can create predictable buying or selling of stock that investors watch because it affects supply, demand and employee incentives.

restricted stock unit award financial

"each outstanding and unvested restricted stock unit award (each, an "Unvested RSU Award")"

A restricted stock unit award is a promise by a company to give an employee a specified number of company shares at a future date if certain conditions are met, such as staying with the company or hitting performance goals. For investors, these awards matter because they can increase the total number of shares outstanding when converted, diluting existing holders, and they align employees’ incentives with shareholders’ interests much like giving a rising bonus that becomes real only after conditions are satisfied.

Replacement RSU Award financial

"was converted into the contingent right to receive an equity-based award ... (each, a "Replacement RSU Award")"

Jupiter Topco LLC financial

"value of each Replacement RSU Award will be determined by reference to the value of the applicable class of equity securities of Jupiter Topco LLC ("TopCo")"
