For purposes of the foregoing, the term “Change of Control Event” shall mean (A) a consolidation or merger of USPI with or into any other corporation (other than a merger which will result in the voting capital stock of USPI outstanding immediately before the effective date of such consolidation or merger being converted into more than 50% of the voting capital stock of the surviving entity outstanding immediately after such consolidation or merger), (B) a sale of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company as an entirety in a single transaction or in a series or related transactions to any other “person” or (C) the acquisition of “beneficial ownership” by any “person” or “group” of voting stock of the Company representing more than 50% of the voting power of all outstanding shares of such voting stock, whether by way of merger of consolidation or otherwise. As used herein, (x) the terms “person” and “group” shall have the meanings set forth in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), whether or not applicable, (y) the term “beneficial owner” shall have the meaning set forth in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act, whether or not applicable, except that a person shall be deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of all shares that any such person has the right to acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time or upon the occurrence of certain events, and (z) any “person” or “group” will be deemed to beneficially own any voting stock so long as such person or group beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, in the aggregate a majority of the voting stock of a registered holder of such voting stock.
Stock Options and Restricted Stock Units The Executive acknowledges that as of the Resignation Date, the Executive was vested in Stock Options and Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) as reflected in the report attached as Exhibit A hereto. Except as specifically set forth herein, the Executive’s rights with respect to Stock Options and RSUs issued to him/her are governed by the Stock Option and Restricted Stock Unit Agreements entered into between the Executive and the Company, and the applicable Company equity incentive plan(s) and Notice(s) of Grant.
Company Restricted Shares At the Effective Time, each share of Company Stock subject to vesting, repurchase or other restrictions pursuant to the Company Stock Plan (a “Company Restricted Share”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall vest in full and become free of restrictions and any repurchase rights shall lapse, and the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive only the Merger Consideration with respect to each such Company Restricted Share in accordance with Section 2.05(b).
Company Restricted Stock Units At the Effective Time of the First Merger, each Company Restricted Stock Unit then outstanding shall be assumed by Parent (each, an “Assumed RSU”). Subject to, and in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Company Stock Plan and any applicable award or other agreement, each Assumed RSU shall be converted into the right to receive the number of shares of Parent Common Stock (or an amount in respect thereof for cash settled Company Restricted Stock Unit) equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the Company Restricted Stock Unit multiplied by the Stock Award Exchange Ratio (rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock). Each Company Restricted Stock Unit shall have the same terms and conditions as were in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time of the First Merger other than with respect to those Company Restricted Stock Units listed (i) in Section 5.9(c)(i) of the Company Disclosure Schedule that were subject to performance based vesting conditions prior to the date of this Agreement and that shall be deemed issued and vested in their entirety at the Effective Time of the First Merger and released from any forfeiture rights pertaining to such shares in favor of Company, Parent or Surviving Entity, and (ii) in Section 5.9(c)(ii) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, which shall be deemed issued in their entirety at the Effective Time of the First Merger, which shall be converted into the right to receive Parent Common Stock according to the same formula applied to the Assumed RSUs above, and which shall be subject to quarterly vesting over a two-year period following the Effective Date in accordance with the terms of the 2006 Plan. Except as set forth in this Section 5.9(c). Company shall not take or permit any action that would accelerate vesting of any Company Restricted Stock Unit, except to the extent required by the terms of any such Company Restricted Stock Unit as in effect on the date hereof. Copies of the relevant agreements governing such Company Restricted Stock Unit and the vesting thereof have been provided to Parent. Except as set forth in this Section 5.9(c), all outstanding rights that Company may hold immediately prior to the Effective Time of the First Merger to the forfeiture of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the Company Restricted Stock Unit shall be assigned to Parent in the First Merger and shall thereafter be held by Parent upon the same terms and conditions in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time of the First Merger, except that the shares forfeitable pursuant to such rights shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the Stock Award Exchange Ratio.
Company Restricted Stock Immediately prior to the Effective Time, any then-outstanding shares of Company Restricted Stock shall become fully vested and the Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold such number of shares of Company Common Stock otherwise deliverable upon such acceleration to satisfy any applicable income and employment withholding Taxes (assuming a fair market value of a share of Company Common Stock equal to the closing price of the Company Common Stock on the last completed trading day immediately prior to the Closing). All shares of Company Common Stock then-outstanding as a result of the full vesting of the shares of Company Restricted Stock and the satisfaction of any applicable income and employment withholding Taxes shall have the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Stock Options; Restricted Stock The foregoing benefits are intended to be in addition to the value of any options to acquire Common Stock of the Company, the exercisability of which is accelerated pursuant to the terms of any stock option agreement, any restricted stock the vesting of which is accelerated pursuant to the terms of the restricted stock agreement, and any other incentive or similar plan heretofore or hereafter adopted by the Company.
Restricted Share Units Restricted Share Units means Restricted Share Units granted to Participant under the Plan subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may determine at the time of issuance.
Company RSUs “Company RSUs” shall mean restricted stock units with respect to Shares, other than restricted stock units subject to performance-based vesting.
Company Options As of the Transaction Effective Time, by virtue of the Transaction Merger, each Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Transaction Effective Time, shall be assumed by the Purchaser and shall be converted into a right (an “Adjusted Option”) to acquire Purchaser Common Stock in accordance with this Section 2.8(d). Each such Adjusted Option as so assumed and converted shall continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to the Company Option immediately prior to the Transaction Effective Time, including the same vesting schedule as the applicable Company Option (and no Company Option shall have its vesting accelerated in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (provided, that no Adjusted Options shall be exercisable prior to the earlier to occur of (i) the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date or (ii) sixty (60) days after the Company Option holder’s termination of employment or termination of service with the Purchaser and its “affiliates” (within the meaning of the Company Stock Plan)), except that as of the Transaction Effective Time, the Adjusted Option as so assumed and converted shall be exercisable for that number of whole shares of Purchaser Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option multiplied by (y) the Exchange Ratio, at an exercise price per share of Purchaser Common Stock (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient of (a) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock of such Company Option, divided by (b) the Exchange Ratio; provided that the exercise price and/or the number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock that may be purchased under the Adjusted Option shall be further adjusted to the extent required to remain compliant with, or exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code; and provided further, that in the case of Company Options that are intended to qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, the exercise price and the number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock subject to the Adjusted Option shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 424 of the Code and the Department of Treasury Regulations issued thereunder. Further, with respect to three percent (3%) of the shares which can be acquired under each Adjusted Option (such 3%, the “Reserved Portion”), in addition to the above-described exercisability restrictions applicable to the Adjusted Option, the Reserved Portion shall (A) in no event be exercisable until after the Expiration Date, (B) immediately after 11:59 p.m. New York City time on the Expiration Date, the Reserved Portion shall be forfeited in the same proportion that the number of Escrow Shares that are not released from the Escrow Account to the Exchange Agent for distribution to Company Holders, net of the number of Escrow Shares retained for Pending Claims, bears to the aggregate number of Escrow Shares deposited in the Escrow Account at the Closing (subject to equitable adjustment for stock dividends, recapitalizations, stock exchanges and other similar transactions) and (C) with respect to the portion of the Reserved Portion equal to the number of Escrow Shares retained after the Expiration Date for Pending Claims divided by the aggregate number of Escrow Shares deposited in the Escrow Account at the Closing (subject to equitable adjustment for stock dividends, recapitalizations, stock exchanges and other similar transactions) (the “Pending Reserved Portion”), (I) such Pending Reserved Portion shall continue to not be exercisable until after the final resolution of all Pending Claims, and (II) upon the final resolution of all Pending Claims, the Pending Reserved Portion shall be forfeited in the same proportion that the number of Escrow Shares that were retained for Pending Claims that are not released from the Escrow Account to the Exchange Agent for distribution to Company Holders (or, to the extent required by Section 2.9(h), to the Purchaser for distribution to such Company Holders) bears to the aggregate number of Escrow Shares that were retained for Pending Claims. For the avoidance of doubt, the period of exercisability of an Adjusted Option, including the Reserved Portion, shall not be extended. For purposes of this Agreement, “Exchange Ratio” means the ratio at which a share of Company Common Stock is exchanged for shares of Purchaser Common Stock at the Transaction Effective Time, as calculated pursuant to Section 2.7. From and after the Transaction Effective Time, (i) all references to the Company (including any references relating to a “Sale Event” involving the Company) in the Company Stock Plan and in each agreement evidencing any outstanding award of Company Options shall be deemed to refer to the Purchaser and (ii) the aggregate number of awards permitted to be issued or granted under the Company Stock Plan shall be adjusted to an amount equal to (A) the aggregate number of shares subject to awards permitted to be issued or granted under the Company Stock Plan immediately prior to the Transaction Effective Time multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio. Prior to the Transaction Effective Time, the Company Stock Plan shall be amended, to the extent necessary, to reflect the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.8(d), including the conversion of the Company Options and the substitution of the Purchaser for the Company thereunder to the extent appropriate to effectuate the assumption of such Company Stock Plan by the Purchaser. Promptly after the Closing, the Purchaser shall take all action necessary or appropriate in accordance with applicable securities Laws to have available for issuance under an effective registration statement filed with the SEC a sufficient number of shares of Purchaser Common Stock for delivery upon exercise or vesting of the Adjusted Options. As of the Transaction Effective Time, except as provided in this Section 2.8(d), all rights under any Company Option and any provision of the Company Stock Plan providing for the issuance or grant of any other interest in respect of the capital stock of the Company shall be cancelled. The Company shall ensure that, as of and after the Transaction Effective Time, except as provided in this Section 2.8(d), no Person shall have any rights under the Company Stock Plan.
