Related to ACCELERATION OF VESTING OF CERTAIN STOCK OPTIONS

  • 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.

  • 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 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.

  • 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:

  • Vesting of Stock Options All unvested stock options held by Executive, if any, shall vest immediately upon a Change of Control Termination as defined in Section 6.1.2. Executive may exercise such options in accordance with the terms and conditions of the stock option plan and the agreement pursuant to which such options were granted.

  • Acceleration of Exercisability of Option (a) This Option shall become immediately fully exercisable in the event that, prior to the termination of the Option pursuant to Section 6 hereof, and during the Optionee’s Continuous Service, there is a “Change in Control,” as defined in Section 9(b) of the Plan.

  • 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:

  • Vesting and Exercisability of Option The Option shall vest, and may be exercised, with respect to the Shares as set forth in the Optionee Statement attached hereto and made a part hereof, subject to earlier termination of the Option as provided in Sections 1.4 and 6 hereof or in the Plan. The right to purchase the Shares as they become vested shall be cumulative and shall continue during the Exercise Term unless sooner terminated as provided herein.

  • 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.
