If the Cash Amount is insufficient to accommodate all of the cash elections made by Voyager stockholders, then the stockholders electing to exchange shares of Voyager common stock for cash will be subject to a pro rata reduction in accordance with agreed procedures set forth in the Merger Agreement.
