Footnotes

F1: On June 12, 2015, Monster Beverage Corporation completed a holding company reorganization in which Monster Beverage Corporation ("Old Monster") merged with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Laser Corporation (which has been renamed Monster Beverage Corporation) ("New Monster") with Old Monster continuing as the surviving corporation and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Monster (the "Holding Company Reorganization"). In the Holding Company Reorganization, each outstanding common share of Old Monster was disposed of in exchange for one common share of New Monster, and all Old Monster restricted stock units and stock options were disposed of in exchange for an equal number of New Monster restricted stock units and stock options, respectively.

F2: In connection with the transactions consummated on June 12, 2015, immediately after the effective time of the Holding Company Reorganization, New Monster issued to The Coca-Cola Company newly issued common shares of New Monster representing approximately 16.7% of the total number of outstanding New Monster common shares (giving effect to such issuance).

F3: Each restricted stock unit represents either (i) a contingent right to receive one share of the Company's common stock or (ii) a cash amount equal to the number of shares received as of the vesting date.

F4: The restricted stock units vest with respect to 100% of such restricted stock units on the last business day prior to the Company's 2015 annual shareholder meeting, provided that the reporting person continues as a director of the Company through such date.

F5: Not applicable.

F6: The options are currently vested.
