Acceleration of Vesting Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control prior to the date that the Option is fully vested and exercisable, the Option shall become immediately vested and exercisable with respect to 100% of the Shares in each remaining vesting tranche. To the extent practicable, such acceleration of vesting and exercisability shall occur in a manner and at a time which allows the Participant the ability to participate in the Change in Control with respect to the Shares of Common Stock received.
Acceleration of Notes If payment of the Notes is accelerated because of an Event of Default, the Company shall promptly notify holders of Senior Debt of the acceleration.
Acceleration, Etc Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in the foregoing Section 10.1(e) or 10.1(f), the Loan shall automatically and immediately terminate and the unpaid principal amount of and any and all accrued interest on the Loan shall automatically become immediately due and payable, with all additional interest from time to time accrued thereon and without presentment, demand or protest or other requirements of any kind (including, without limitation, valuation and appraisement, diligence, presentment, notice of intent to demand or accelerate or notice of acceleration), all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower, and the obligations of Lender to make any further disbursement of the Loan shall thereupon terminate; and upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, Lender may, by written notice to Borrower, (i) declare that the Loan is terminated, whereupon the Loan and the obligation of Lender to make any further disbursement of the Loan shall immediately terminate, and/or (ii) declare the unpaid principal amount of, any and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Loan and all of the other Obligations to be, and the same shall thereupon be, immediately due and payable with all additional interest from time to time accrued thereon and without presentment, demand, or protest or other requirements of any kind (including without limitation, valuation and appraisement, diligence, presentment, notice of intent to demand or accelerate and of acceleration), all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower. Without limiting Lender’s authority hereunder, on or after the Maturity Date, Lender may exercise any or all rights and remedies under the Loan Documents or applicable law, including, without limitation, foreclosure upon the Property or any additional collateral.
Acceleration of Vesting Upon Change in Control Effective at the time of a Change in Control, all unvested stock options and stock previously issued to Executive as to which rights of ownership are subject to forfeiture shall immediately vest; all risk of forfeiture of the ownership of stock or stock options and restrictions on the exercise of options shall lapse; and, Executive shall be entitled to exercise any or all options, such that the underlying shares will be considered outstanding at the time of the Change in Control.
Acceleration of Option Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Option granted hereby shall become immediately exercisable upon the occurrence of a Change in Control (as hereinafter defined) of the Corporation if Optionee is an employee of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries on the date of the consummation of such Change in Control. For purposes of this Section 4.2, a “Change in Control” means the occurrence of any of the following events:
Acceleration of Options One hundred (100%) percent of the Executive’s outstanding, unvested options, restricted stock and/or equity awards (“Equity Awards”) shall, immediately prior to the consummation of the Change in Control, become fully and immediately vested to the extent not already so provided under the terms of such Equity Awards; provided, however, that if the acquirer in a Change in Control grants Equity Awards having (in the reasonable opinion of the Board) a value at least equal to the value of Executive’s then-unvested Company Equity Awards, then 50% of the Executive’s outstanding, unvested Company Equity Awards shall become fully and immediately vested immediately prior to the consummation of the Change in Control (and the remaining 50% shall terminate upon the consummation of the Change in Control). Notwithstanding any provisions of the stock option plan or stock option agreement pursuant to which any stock options subject to the preceding sentence were granted, the Executive shall be entitled to exercise such Equity Awards until three years from the date of termination of employment or the expiration of the stated period of the Equity Award, whichever period is the shorter.
Vesting Acceleration Effective on such termination, the Executive shall receive accelerated vesting equivalent to six (6) months of service beyond the date of Executive’s termination with respect to the shares subject to any grant of restricted stock or stock options (each, an “Equity Grant”) granted to the Executive, regardless of whether granted prior to, coincident with, or after, the Effective Date; provided, however, that in the event such termination occurs within one (1) year following a Change of Control, then one hundred percent (100%) of the remaining shares subject to each such Equity Grant shall become vested in full and the period during which the Executive is permitted to exercise (if applicable) any such Equity Grant shall be extended until the earlier of (i) ten (10) years from the date of grant, or (ii) the expiration date of such Equity Grant (as of the date of grant).
Acceleration of Exercisability Notwithstanding the schedule provided in subsection 3.2, the Option will become fully exercisable (unless Participant chooses to decline accelerated Vesting of all or any portion of the Option) upon the occurrence of either:
Special Acceleration of Option (a) This option, to the extent outstanding at the time of a Corporate Transaction but not otherwise fully exercisable, shall automatically accelerate so that this option shall, immediately prior to the effective date of such Corporate Transaction, become exercisable for all of the Option Shares at the time subject to this option and may be exercised for any or all of those Option Shares as fully vested shares of Common Stock. No such acceleration of this option shall occur, however, if and to the extent: (i) this option is, in connection with the Corporate Transaction, to be assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or (ii) this option is to be replaced with a cash incentive program of the successor corporation which preserves the spread existing at the time of the Corporate Transaction on the Option Shares for which this option is not otherwise at that time exercisable (the excess of the Fair Market Value of those Option Shares over the aggregate Exercise Price payable for such shares) and provides for subsequent payout in accordance with the same option exercise/vesting schedule set forth in the Grant Notice.
Acceleration of Stock Options The Company shall accelerate and make immediately exercisable any and all unmatured stock options (whether or not such stock options are otherwise exercisable) which Executive then holds to acquire securities from the Company; provided, however, that Executive shall have ninety (90) days after such termination of employment to exercise any outstanding stock options and after such ninety (90) days any and all unexpired stock options shall lapse; and, provided, further, however, any tax benefit provisions with respect to any stock options shall apply to any and all unmatured stock options (whether or not such stock options are otherwise exercisable). If as a result of such acceleration of incentive stock options the $100,000 limitation would be exceeded with respect to an optionee, such incentive stock options shall be converted, as of the date such incentive stock options become exercisable, to non-qualified stock options to the extent necessary to comply with the $100,000 limitation and the Company shall pay to such optionee an additional cash payment equal to the tax benefit to be received by the Company attributable to its federal income tax deduction resulting from the exercise of such converted non-qualified stock options.
