("Merger Sub I"), Montana Merger Sub II LLC ("Merger Sub II"), the Company and Retail Opportunity Investments Partnership, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the "Partnership") at the Company Merger Effective Time, each outstanding share of common stock was automatically canceled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $17.50, without interest.

Vesting of the LTIP Units was based on the Company's achievement of certain performance criteria during the performance period from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2025 (the "performance period").
