each Share subject to such then-vested Company PSU, a lump-sum cash payment
equal to the Merger Consideration? (iii) each restricted share unit payable in
Shares, or whose value is determined with reference to the value of Shares,
granted pursuant to the Company Stock Plan, other than a Company PSU ("Company
RSU") outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time vested in full and was
canceled and converted into the right to receive, for each Share subject to such
Company RSU, a lump-sum cash payment equal to the Merger Consideration? (iv)
each restricted share unit payable in Shares, or whose value was determined with
reference to the value of Shares, granted pursuant to the Perspecta Inc. 2018

cash payment equal to the Merger Consideration? and (v) all dividend equivalent
payments with respect to Company RSUs, Company PSUs and Director RSUs that have
been accumulated or retained by the Company until the vesting or settlement of
