Change in Control Acceleration. In the event of a Change in Control, 75% of the number of shares of Company stock subject to the unvested portion of each outstanding stock option and other equity award (together, the “Equity Awards”) held by Executive shall become fully vested, exercisable and otherwise free from forfeiture immediately prior to the closing of such Change in Control, with the remaining unvested portion of such Equity Awards continuing to vest and becoming fully exercisable and free from forfeiture on the first anniversary of the closing of the Change in Control (the “First Anniversary Vest Date”), subject to Executive’s continued employment with the Company through such date (unless otherwise provided herein). With respect to any Equity Awards granted in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”), upon the vesting of the RSUs on the First Anniversary Vest Date, the Executive shall be entitled, with respect to each share of Company stock subject to such RSUs, to receive the greater of (i) the consideration paid per share of Company stock on the closing date of the Change in Control by the acquiring or succeeding entity (the “Per Share Price”), whether paid in cash or stock of the acquiring or succeeding entity and (ii) to the extent the shares of Company stock are converted into stock of the acquiring or succeeding entity in connection with the Change in Control and the value of the stock into which the Company stock converts exceeds the Per Share Price on the First Anniversary Vest Date, then such higher amount, whether paid in cash or stock of the acquiring or succeeding entity (such greater amount, the “Assumed RSU Payment Amount”).
