Stock Restrictions Optionee understands that at the time of the execution of this Option Agreement, the shares of the Stock issuable upon exercise of this Option have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), or under any state securities law, and that the Company currently does not intend to effect any such registration. Optionee agrees that the shares of the Stock which Optionee may acquire by exercising this Option shall be purchased by Optionee for investment without a view to distribution within the meaning of the Act, and shall not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated unless such transfer has been registered under the Act and applicable state securities laws, or the transfer duly qualifies for an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Act and any applicable state securities laws. In any event, Optionee agrees that the shares of the Stock which Optionee may acquire by exercising this Option shall not be sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner which would constitute a violation of any applicable securities laws, whether federal or state. In addition, Optionee agrees that (i) the certificates representing the shares of the Stock purchased under this Option may bear such restrictive legend or legends as the Company's legal counsel deems appropriate in order to assure compliance with applicable securities laws, (ii) the Company may refuse to register the transfer of the shares of the Stock purchased under this Option on the stock transfer records of the Company if such proposed transfer would, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company, constitute a violation of any applicable securities laws, and (iii) the Company may give related instructions to its transfer agent to stop registration of the transfer of the shares of Stock purchased under this Option.
Release of Restrictions Upon vesting of any portion of the shares of Restricted Stock and satisfaction of any other conditions required by the Plan or pursuant to this Restricted Stock Agreement, the Company shall promptly either issue a stock certificate, without such restricted legend, for any shares of the Restricted Stock that have vested, or, if the shares are held in book entry form, the Company shall remove the notations on the book form for any shares of the Restricted Stock that have vested.
Acceleration of Vesting (a) In the event your employment with Deluxe is terminated by reason of death, Disability (as defined in the Addendum), or Approved Retirement (as defined in the Addendum) any time during the Restricted Period, all of the yet unvested Units will vest and the Units shall become non-forfeitable as of the date of such termination.
(b) Subject to Section 4(c), in the event your employment is terminated during the Restricted Period after the first anniversary of the Award Date by reason of involuntary termination without Cause, a pro rata portion of the next segment of Units scheduled to vest after the termination date (based on the number of completed days between the termination date and the scheduled vesting date immediately prior to the termination date (or the Award Date if there was no such scheduled vesting date) divided by 365) shall vest and become non-forfeitable as of the date of such termination.
(c) Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement that would result in Units vesting in full or in part at a later date, if, in connection with any Change of Control, the acquiring Person, surviving or acquiring corporation or entity, or an Affiliate of such corporation or entity, elects to assume the obligations of Deluxe under this Agreement and to replace the Shares issuable upon settlement of the Units with other equity securities that are listed on a national securities exchange (including by use of American Depository Receipts or any similar method) and are freely transferable under all applicable federal and state securities laws and regulations (“Replacement Equity Securities”), the Units then subject to restriction shall continue to vest as set forth in Section 2, provided, however, the Units shall vest in full and become non-forfeitable if, within twelve months of the date of the Change of Control:
(i) Your employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause,
(ii) Your employment with the Company is terminated by you for Good Reason, or
(iii) Vesting would otherwise occur on any earlier date as provided under this Agreement. In the event of any such Change of Control, the number of Replacement Equity Securities issuable under this Agreement shall be determined by the Committee in accordance with Section 4(c) of the Plan. In the event of any such Change of Control, all references herein to the Shares shall thereafter be deemed to refer to the Replacement Equity Securities, references to Deluxe or the Company shall thereafter be deemed to refer to the issuer of such Replacement Equity Securities, and all other terms of this Agreement shall continue in effect except as and to the extent modified by this subparagraph.
(d) If the Change of Control does not meet the continuation or replacement criteria specified in Section 4(c) above, all Units then subject to restriction shall vest in full immediately and become non-forfeitable upon the Change of Control.
(e) The provisions of this Section 4 shall be subject to Sections 5(b) and 8.
Trading Restrictions Each Investor represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Company that it will not (and its Affiliates acting on its behalf or pursuant to any understanding with it will not) engage in or effect, directly or indirectly, any transactions in any securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any Short Sales, “locking-up” borrow or hedging activities involving the Company’s securities) during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the date that is fifteen (15) months following the Closing Date.
