Accelerated Vesting on a Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that a Change in Control (as defined in Exhibit A hereto) occurs while the Grantee is employed with the Company or a Subsidiary, a pro rata portion of the Restricted Shares shall immediately become fully vested and the restrictions imposed thereon shall lapse on a pro rata basis as follows. The number of Restricted Shares that shall vest on account of a Change in Control shall be determined by multiplying all of the Restricted Shares (including vested and unvested) by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of full months of employment from the Grant Date through the date of the Change in Control and the denominator of which shall be 36, and then subtracting the number of Restricted Shares that had vested prior to the date of the Change in Control; provided, however, that in no event shall the number subject to such pro rata vesting be less than zero and in no event shall a Change in Control result in forfeiture of any Restricted Shares vested prior to such Change in Control. The date of such pro rata vesting in the event of a Change in Control shall be the date of such Change in Control.
