Share-based compensation

The Company adopted a share-based compensation plan (the “Plan”) under which each vested Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive one Class A Common Share. Under the Plan, RSUs with service-based conditions may be granted to directors, officers, employees, and non-employees. RSUs were granted to employees of both the Company and FCG. However, FCG fully reimburses FBG for the compensation cost associated with these grants. As such, expenses related to the RSUs granted to employees of FCG do not represent a purchase of services or contribution to FCG.

The RSUs do not provide the grantee with an option to choose settlement in cash or stock. The holder of the RSU shall not be, nor have any of the rights or privileges of, a shareholder of the Company, including, without limitation, voting rights and rights to dividends, in respect to the RSUs and any shares underlying the RSUs and deliverable under the Plan unless and until such shares shall have been issued by the Company and held of record by such holder. The fair value of these RSUs is estimated based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant using the closing price on the day of grant.
