Forfeiture of Outstanding Restricted Shares and Other Equity Awards Sample Clauses

Forfeiture of Outstanding Restricted Shares and Other Equity Awards. The provisions of Sections 4 and 5 notwithstanding, if Executive fails to comply with the restrictive covenants under Sections 7.1 – 7.3 hereof, all equity awards granted by the Company at and after the Effective Date and then held by Executive or a transferee of Executive shall be immediately forfeited and thereupon such equity awards shall be cancelled. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not forfeit any equity award unless and until there shall have been delivered to him, within six months after the Board (i) had knowledge of conduct or an event allegedly constituting grounds for such forfeiture and (ii) had reason to believe that such conduct or event could be grounds for such forfeiture, a copy of a resolution duly adopted by a majority affirmative vote of the membership of the Board (excluding Executive) at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose (after giving Executive reasonable notice specifying the nature of the grounds for such forfeiture and not less than 30 days to correct the acts or omissions complained of, if correctable, and affording Executive the opportunity, together with his counsel, to be heard before the Board) finding that, in the good faith opinion of the Board, Executive has engaged in conduct set forth in this Section 7.7 which constitutes grounds for forfeiture of Executive’s options and equity awards; provided, however, that if any option is exercised or equity award is settled after delivery of such notice and the Board subsequently makes the determination described in this sentence, Executive shall be required to pay to the Company an amount equal to the difference between the aggregate value of the shares acquired upon exercise of the award at the date of the Board determination and the aggregate exercise price paid by Executive and an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares delivered in settlement of the equity award at the date of such determination (net of any cash payment for the shares by Executive). Any such forfeiture shall apply to such awards notwithstanding any term or provision of any agreement. In addition, equity awards granted to Executive on or after the Effective Date, and gains resulting from the exercise of such equity awards and settlement of such equity awards, shall be subject to forfeiture in accordance with the Company’s standard policies relating to such forfeitures and clawbacks, as such policies are in effect at the time of grant of such equity awards.

  • Restricted Shares Employee hereby accepts the Restricted Shares when issued and agrees with respect thereto as follows:

  • Restricted Stock Shares of restricted stock granted to the Executive by the Company which have not become vested as of the date of termination of the Executive’s employment, as provided in Section 7(b), shall immediately become vested on a pro rata basis upon the Release becoming irrevocable. The number of such additional shares of restricted stock that shall become vested as of the date of the Executive’s termination of employment shall be that number of additional shares that would have become vested through the date of such termination of employment at the rate(s) determined under the vesting schedule applicable to such shares had such vesting schedule provided for the accrual of vesting on a daily basis (based on a 365-day year).

Any shares of restricted stock remaining unvested after such pro rata acceleration of vesting shall automatically be reacquired by the Company in accordance with the provisions of the applicable restricted stock agreement, and the Executive shall have no further rights in such unvested portion of the restricted stock. In addition, the Company shall waive any reacquisition or repayment rights for dividends paid on restricted stock prior to Executive’s termination of employment.
