Vesting; Time of Exercise Except as specifically provided in this Agreement and subject to certain restrictions and conditions set forth in the Plan, the Optioned Shares shall be vested and the Stock Option shall be exercisable as follows:
Period of Exercisability Section 3.1 - Commencement of Exercisability
(a) Options shall become exercisable as follows: Percentage of Option Date Option Shares Granted As to Which Becomes Exercisable Option Is Exercisable ------------------- --------------------- After the first anniversary of the Trigger Date 20% After the second anniversary of the Trigger Date 40% After the third anniversary of the Trigger Date 60% After the fourth anniversary of the Trigger Date 80% After the fifth anniversary of the Trigger Date 100% Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) no Options shall become exercisable prior to the time the Plan is approved by the Company's stockholders, and (y) subject to the immediately preceding clause (x), the Options shall become immediately exercisable as to 100% of the shares of Common Stock subject to such Options immediately prior to a Change of Control (but only to the extent such Options have not otherwise terminated or become exercisable).
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Option shall become exercisable as to any additional shares of Common Stock following the termination of employment of the Optionee for any reason other than a termination of employment because of death or Permanent Disability of the Optionee, and any Option (other than as provided in the next succeeding sentence) which is non-exercisable as of the Optionee's termination of employment shall be immediately cancelled. In the event of a termination of employment because of such death or Permanent Disability, the Options shall immediately become exercisable as to all shares of Common Stock subject thereto.
Commencement of Exercisability (a) Subject to Sections 3.1(b), 3.1(c) and 3.3, the Option shall become vested and exercisable in such amounts and at such times as are set forth in the Grant Notice.
(b) No portion of the Option which has not become vested and exercisable at the date of the Participant’s Termination of Services shall thereafter become vested and exercisable, except as may be otherwise provided by the Administrator or as set forth in a written agreement between the Company and the Participant. [
Exercise of Warrants; Exercise Price; Termination Date (a) The Warrants shall be exercisable commencing on the Initial Exercise Date. The Warrants shall cease to be exercisable and shall terminate and become void as set forth in the Warrant Certificate. Subject to the foregoing and to Section 7(b) below, the Holder of a Warrant may exercise the Warrant in whole or in part upon surrender of the Warrant Certificate, if required, with the executed Notice of Exercise and payment of the Exercise Price, which may be made, at the option of the Holder, by wire transfer or by certified or official bank check in United States dollars, to the Warrant Agent at the principal office of the Warrant Agent or to the office of one of its agents as may be designated by the Warrant Agent from time to time. In the case of the Holder of a Global Warrant, the Holder shall deliver the executed Notice of Exercise and the payment of the Exercise Price as described herein. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, a holder whose interest in a Global Warrant is a beneficial interest in a Global Warrant held in book-entry form through the Depositary (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions), shall effect exercises by delivering to the Depositary (or such other clearing corporation, as applicable) the appropriate instruction form for exercise, complying with the procedures to effect exercise that are required by the Depositary (or such other clearing corporation, as applicable). The Company acknowledges that the bank accounts maintained by the Warrant Agent in connection with the services provided under this Agreement will be in its name and that the Warrant Agent may receive investment earnings in connection with the investment at Warrant Agent risk and for its benefit of funds held in those accounts from time to time. Neither the Company nor the Holders will receive interest on any deposits or Exercise Price. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to a holder whose interest in a Global Warrant is a beneficial interest in a Global Warrant held in book-entry form through the Depositary (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions), upon delivery of irrevocable instructions to such holder’s Participant to exercise such warrants, that solely for purposes of Regulation SHO that such holder shall be deemed to have exercised such warrants.
(b) Upon receipt of a Notice of Exercise for a Cashless Exercise the Company will promptly calculate and transmit to the Warrant Agent the number of Warrant Shares issuable in connection with such Cashless Exercise and deliver a copy of the Notice of Exercise to the Warrant Agent, which shall issue such number of Warrant Shares in connection with such Cashless Exercise.
(c) Upon the exercise of the Warrant Certificate pursuant to the terms of Section 2 of the Warrant Certificate, the Warrant Agent shall cause the Warrant Shares underlying such Warrant Certificate or Global Warrant to be delivered to or upon the order of the Holder of such Warrant Certificate or Global Warrant, registered in such name or names as may be designated by such Holder, no later than the Warrant Share Delivery Date (as such term is defined in the Warrant Certificate). If the Company is then a participant in the DWAC system of the Depositary and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by Holder or (B) the Warrant is being exercised via Cashless Exercise, then the certificates for Warrant Shares shall be transmitted by the Warrant Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s broker with the Depositary through its DWAC system. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company becomes obligated to pay any amounts to any Holders pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) or 2(d)(iv) of the Warrant Certificate, such obligation shall be solely that of the Company and not that of the Warrant Agent. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, except in the case of a Cashless Exercise, if any Holder fails to duly deliver payment to the Warrant Agent of an amount equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the Warrant Shares to be purchased upon exercise of such Holder’s Warrant as set forth in Section 7(a) hereof by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Warrant Agent will not obligated to deliver such Warrant Shares (via DWAC or otherwise) until following receipt of such payment, and the applicable Warrant Share Delivery Date shall be deemed extended by one day for each day (or part thereof) until such payment is delivered to the Warrant Agent.
(d) The Warrant Agent shall deposit all funds received by it in payment of the Exercise Price for all Warrants in the account of the Company maintained with the Warrant Agent for such purpose (or to such other account as directed by the Company in writing) and shall advise the Company via email at the end of each day on which notices of exercise are received or funds for the exercise of any Warrant are received of the amount so deposited to its account.
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.
Vesting and Exercisability (a) Options to purchase 87,500 shares, 43,750 shares and 43,750 shares, respectively, will vest on the first three anniversaries of the Start Date (as defined in the Employment Agreement).
(b) If the Employee's employment with the Company terminates for any reason prior to the time that the Option has been fully exercised, the unexercised portion of the Option on the date of termination of employment (whether exercisable or not) shall immediately expire; provided, however, that (i) if the Employee's employment is terminated by reason of the Employee's disability (pursuant to Section 3.3 of the Employment Agreement), all portions of the Option that are vested at the time of termination shall remain exercisable for a period of one year from the date of such termination or until the expiration of the Exercise Period, whichever is shorter; (ii) in the event of the death of the Employee while in the employ of the Company, all portions of the Option that are vested at the time of death shall remain exercisable by the legal representative of the estate or by the legatee of the Employee under the will of the Employee for a period of one year from the date of such death or until the expiration of the Exercise Period, whichever is shorter; and (iii) in the event the Employee is terminated without "Cause" (as defined in the Employment Agreement), or Executive terminates his employment for "Good Reason" (as defined in the Employment Agreement), then the Option shall become fully vested and exercisable and may be exercised for a period of five years from the date of such termination of employment or until the expiration of the Exercise Period, whichever is shorter.
(c) The Board of Directors may, in the event the Executive's employment is terminated for Cause (as provided for in the Employment Agreement), annul the Option and, in such event, may require the Executive to return to the Company the economic benefit of any Option Shares purchased hereunder by the Executive within the six month period prior to the date of termination. In such event, the Executive hereby agrees to remit to the Company, in cash, an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the Option Shares on the date of termination (or the sales price of such Shares if the Option Shares were sold during such six month period) and the exercise price of such Shares.
Vesting and Exercise of Option The Option shall vest and become exercisable during its term in accordance with the following provisions:
Exercisability This option shall be exercisable as to: 400 immediate This option shall remain exercisable as to all vested shares until January 1,2014 (but not later than ten (10) years from the date this option is granted) unless this option has expired or terminated earlier in accordance with the provisions hereof or in the Plan. Subject to paragraphs 4 and 5, shares as to which this option becomes exercisable pursuant to the foregoing provision may be purchased at any time prior to expiration of this option.
Number of Shares; Exercise Price This certifies that, for value received, the United States Department of the Treasury or its permitted assigns (the “Warrantholder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, to acquire from the Company, in whole or in part, after the receipt of all applicable Regulatory Approvals, if any, up to an aggregate of the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Preferred Stock set forth in Item 7 of Schedule A hereto (the “Shares”), at a purchase price per share of Preferred Stock equal to the Exercise Price.
Acceleration of Exercisability In the event of the merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation, the exchange of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company for the securities of another corporation, the acquisition by another corporation or person of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or eighty percent (80%) or more of the Company’s then outstanding voting stock, or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the Committee may, in its absolute discretion and upon such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, provide by resolution, adopted prior to such event and incorporated in the notice referred to in Section 3(c)(vii), that at some time prior to the effective date of such event this Option shall be exercisable as to all the shares covered hereby, notwithstanding that this Option may not yet have become fully exercisable under Section 3(a)(i); provided, however, that this acceleration of exercisability shall not take place if:
(i) This Option becomes unexercisable under Section 3(c) prior to said effective date; or
(ii) In connection with such an event, provision is made for an assumption of this Option or a substitution therefor of a new option by an employer corporation, or a parent or subsidiary of such corporation, so that such assumption or substitution complies with the provisions of Section 424(a) of the Code; and provided, further, that nothing in this Section 3(d) shall make this Option exercisable if it is otherwise unexercisable by reason of Section 3(e). The Committee may make such determinations and adopt such rules and conditions as it, in its absolute discretion, deems appropriate in connection with such acceleration of exercisability, including, but not by way of limitation, provisions to ensure that any such acceleration and resulting exercise shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the contemplated corporate transaction, and determinations regarding whether provisions for assumption or substitution have been made as defined in subsection (ii) above.
