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.

(c) If (i) the Grantee’s Separation occurs after the Close of Business on December 31, 2023, or (ii) in the absence of a Change in Control after the Grant Date, the Grantee’s Separation occurs (A) on account of a termination of the Grantee’s employment or service without Cause, (B) on account of a termination of the Grantee’s employment or service by the Grantee with or without Good Reason, or (C) by reason of the death or Disability of the Grantee, then, in each case, all Options that are not vested and exercisable as of the Close of Business on the date of Separation after giving effect to the provisions of Sections 3 and 7 above will terminate at that time, and all Options that are vested and exercisable as of the Close of Business on the date of Separation after giving effect to the provisions of Sections 3 and 7 above will terminate at the expiration of the Term. In any event in which Options remain exercisable for a period of time following the date of the Grantee’s Separation as provided above, the Options may be exercised during such period of time only to the extent the same were vested and exercisable as provided in Section 3 above on such date of Separation (after giving effect to the application of Section 7 above).

Options, Warrants, etc In the event that the Company shall issue rights, options or warrants to any person or persons who are at the time of such issuance are stockholders of the Company, entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares (or securities convertible or exchangeable into shares) at a price per share (or having a conversion or exchange price per share if a security convertible or exchangeable into shares) less than the $0.20 per share on the record date for such issuance (or the date of issuance, if there is no record date), the number of Consultant Shares on and after such record date (or issuance date, as the case may be) shall be determined by multiplying the number of Consultant Shares immediately prior to such record date (or issuance date, as the case may be) by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the number of Consultant Shares outstanding on such record date (or issuance date, as the case may be) plus the number of Shares which the total offering price of the total number of such shares so as to be offered (or the aggregate initial exchange or conversion price of the exchangeable or convertible securities so to be offered) would purchase at such $0.20 on such record date (or issuance date, as the case may be) and of which the denominator shall be the number of Consultant Shares outstanding on such record date (or issuance date, as the case may be). Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such an issuance occurs; and in the event that such rights, options, warrants, or convertible or exchangeable securities are not so issued or expire or cease to be convertible or exchangeable before they are exercised, converted, or exchanged (as the case may be), then the Consultant Shares shall again be adjusted to be the number of Consultant Shares that would then be in effect if such issuance had not occurred, but such subsequent adjustment shall not affect the number of Consultant Shares issued prior to the date such subsequent adjustment is made.
