Subject to receipt of a duly completed and validly executed letter of transmittal (and any other documents required thereby) substantially in the form required of holders of Common Stock pursuant to any Alternative Merger Agreement in connection with the payment of the merger consideration payable to such holders pursuant to such Alternative Merger Agreement, the Company shall make the cash payments contemplated hereby as promptly as practicable after the effective time of the related Alternative Merger.
