Shares not held by Merger Sub were converted into the right to receive $8.88 in cash, and BRSH restricted stock awards were replaced with BRC restricted stock awards at twice the share count. The filing also states that Andy Moore's BRSH award was replaced with a substitute award covering 374,720 BRC shares.
