Special Vesting Rules Notwithstanding Section 1.2 above:
Vesting Period The vesting period of the Restricted Stock (the “Vesting Period”) begins on the Grant Date and continues until such date as is set forth on Schedule A as the date on which the Restricted Stock is fully vested. On the first Annual Vesting Date following the date of this Agreement and each Annual Vesting Date thereafter the number of shares of Restricted Stock equal to the Annual Vesting Amount shall become vested, subject to earlier forfeiture as provided in this Agreement. To the extent that Schedule A provides for amounts or schedules of vesting that conflict with the provisions of this paragraph, the provisions of Schedule A will govern. Except as permitted under Section 10, the shares of Restricted Stock for which the applicable Vesting Period has not expired may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of or encumbered (whether voluntary or involuntary or by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or other legal or equitable proceeding). The Employee shall not have the right to receive cash dividends paid on shares of Restricted Stock for which the applicable Vesting Period has not expired. In lieu thereof, the Employee shall have the right to receive from the Company an amount, in cash, equal to the cash dividends payable on shares of Restricted Stock for which the applicable Vesting Period has not expired, provided the Employee is employed by the Company on the payroll date coinciding with or immediately following the date any such cash dividends are paid on the Restricted Shares. The Employee shall have the right to vote the Restricted Stock, regardless of whether the applicable Vesting Period has expired.
Vesting of Equity Awards Notwithstanding the provisions of any plan or agreement governing such an Award (as defined in Section 4(c)), all Awards granted to you that remain outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined in Section 4(d)(i)) automatically shall vest in full upon the occurrence of the Change in Control.
Equity Vesting All of the then-unvested shares subject to each of the Executive’s then-outstanding equity awards will immediately vest and, in the case of options and stock appreciation rights, will become exercisable (for avoidance of doubt, no more than 100% of the shares subject to the then-outstanding portion of an equity award may vest and become exercisable under this provision). In the case of equity awards with performance-based vesting, all performance goals and other vesting criteria will be deemed achieved at the greater of actual performance or 100% of target levels. Unless otherwise required under the next following two sentences or, with respect to awards subject to Section 409A of the Code, under Section 5(b) below, any restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, and/or similar full value awards that vest under this paragraph will be settled on the 61st day following the CIC Qualified Termination. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Executive’s Qualified Termination occurs prior to a Change in Control, then any unvested portion of the Executive’s then-outstanding equity awards will remain outstanding for 3 months or the occurrence of a Change in Control (whichever is earlier) so that any additional benefits due on a CIC Qualified Termination can be provided if a Change in Control occurs within 3 months following the Qualified Termination (provided that in no event will the Executive’s stock options or similar equity awards remain outstanding beyond the equity award’s maximum term to expiration). In such case, if no Change in Control occurs within 3 months following a Qualified Termination, any unvested portion of the Executive’s equity awards automatically will be forfeited permanently on the 3-month anniversary of the Qualified Termination without having vested.
General Vesting The Shares of Restricted Stock shall become vested in the following amounts, at the following times and upon the following conditions, provided that the Termination of Service of the Participant does not occur before the applicable date on which the Shares of Restricted Stock become vested (the “Vesting Date”): Number of Shares of Restricted Stock Vesting Date [ ] [ ] Except as otherwise provided in Sections 2(b) and 4 hereof, there shall be no proportionate or partial vesting of Shares of Restricted Stock in or during the months, days or periods prior to each Vesting Date, and all vesting of Shares of Restricted Stock shall occur only on the applicable Vesting Date.
Annual Equity Award With respect to each Company fiscal year commencing during the Term, the Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual equity compensation award (each such award, an “Annual Equity Award”). The form and terms and conditions of each Annual Equity Award shall be determined by the Board (or the Compensation Committee of the Board) in its discretion and shall be set forth in one or more written award agreements between the Company and the Executive.
Vesting of LTIP Units The restrictions and conditions in Sections 2(b) and 2(c) of this Agreement shall lapse with respect to the LTIP Units granted herein in the amounts and on the Vesting Dates specified below: Portion of Award to Vest Vesting Date 33.33% [Grant Date,] 2017 33.33% [Grant Date,] 2018 33.33% [Grant Date,] 2019 Total: 100% of Award
Accelerated Vesting of Equity Awards One hundred percent (100%) of Executive’s then-outstanding and unvested Equity Awards will become vested in full. If, however, an outstanding Equity Award is to vest and/or the amount of the award to vest is to be determined based on the achievement of performance criteria, then the Equity Award will vest as to one hundred percent (100%) of the amount of the Equity Award assuming the performance criteria had been achieved at target levels for the relevant performance period(s).
Vesting of PSUs The PSUs are subject to forfeiture until they vest. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the PSUs will vest and become non-forfeitable on the last day of the Performance Period, subject to (a) the achievement of the minimum threshold performance goals for payout set forth in the attached Exhibit A, (b) the certification of the performance results for the PSUs by the Committee, and (c) there being no termination of Grantee’s employment (as determined pursuant to Section 7.2 of the Plan) from the Grant Date through the last day of the Performance Period. The number of PSUs that vest and become payable under this Agreement shall be determined by the Committee based on the level of achievement of the performance goals set forth on the attached Exhibit A and shall be rounded to the nearest whole PSU.
Vesting of Option The Option shall be 100% vested upon the date of grant.
