Multiple Options In the event that Lessee has any multiple Options to extend or renew this Lease, a later Option cannot be exercised unless the prior Options have been validly exercised.
Cumulative Exercisability To the extent that the Option is vested and exercisable, the Grantee has the right to exercise the Option (to the extent not previously exercised), and such right shall continue, until the expiration or earlier termination of the Option.
Net Issue Exercise Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, if the fair market value of one share of the Company's Common Stock is greater than the Per Share Exercise Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below), in lieu of exercising the Option for cash, the Optionee may elect to receive shares equal to the value (as determined below) of the Option (or the portion thereof being canceled) by surrender of the Option at the principal office of the Company together with the properly endorsed Notice of Exercise and Subscription Form and notice of such election, in which event the Company will issue to the Optionee a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the following formula: X = Y (A-B) ------- A Where X = the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Optionee Y = the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable under the Option or, if only a portion of the Option is being exercised, the portion of the Option being canceled (at the date of such calculation) A = the fair market value of one share of the Company's Common Stock (at the date of such calculation) B = Per Share Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation) For purposes of the above calculation, fair market value of one share of the Company's Stock will be the average of the closing prices of the Company's shares of Common Stock as quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board (the "OTCBB") (or on such other United States stock exchange or public trading market or quotation medium on or by which the shares of the Company trade or are quoted if, at the time of the election, they are not trading or being quoted on the OTCBB), for the five (5) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of the date the completed, executed Notice of Exercise and Subscription Form is received.
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:
Time of Exercise The purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part during the Term.
Duration of Exercisability The installments provided for in Section 3.1 are cumulative. Each such installment which becomes exercisable pursuant to Section 3.1 shall remain exercisable until it becomes unexercisable under Section 3.3.
Method of Exercising Option Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Option may be exercised by written notice to the Company or its designee, in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. Such notice shall state the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised and shall be signed by the person exercising the Option. Payment of the purchase price for such Shares shall be made in accordance with Paragraph 9 of the Plan. The Company shall deliver such Shares as soon as practicable after the notice shall be received, provided, however, that the Company may delay issuance of such Shares until completion of any action or obtaining of any consent, which the Company deems necessary under any applicable law (including, without limitation, state securities or “blue sky” laws). The Shares as to which the Option shall have been so exercised shall be registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the person so exercising the Option (or, if the Option shall be exercised by the Participant and if the Participant shall so request in the notice exercising the Option, shall be registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Participant and another person jointly, with right of survivorship) and shall be delivered as provided above to or upon the written order of the person exercising the Option. In the event the Option shall be exercised, pursuant to Section 4 hereof, by any person other than the Participant, such notice shall be accompanied by appropriate proof of the right of such person to exercise the Option. All Shares that shall be purchased upon the exercise of the Option as provided herein shall be fully paid and nonassessable.
Manner of Exercising Option (a) In order to exercise this option with respect to all or any part of the Option Shares for which this option is at the time exercisable, Optionee (or any other person or persons exercising the option) must take the following actions:
(i) To the extent the option is exercised for vested Option Shares, execute and deliver to the Corporation a Notice of Exercise for the Option Shares for which the option is exercised. To the extent this option is exercised for unvested Option Shares, execute and deliver to the Corporation a Purchase Agreement for those unvested Option Shares.
(ii) Pay the aggregate Exercise Price for the purchased shares in one or more of the following forms:
(A) cash or check made payable to the Corporation,
(B) shares of Common Stock held by Optionee (or any other person or persons exercising the option) for the requisite period necessary to avoid a charge to the Corporation's earnings for financial reporting purposes and valued at Fair Market Value on the Exercise Date, or
(C) to the extent the option is exercised for vested Option Shares, through a special sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which Optionee (or any other person or persons exercising the option) shall concurrently provide irrevocable instructions (I) to a Corporation-designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of the purchased shares and remit to the Corporation, out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the purchased shares plus all applicable Federal, state and local income and employment taxes required to be withheld by the Corporation by reason of such exercise and (II) to the Corporation to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale.
(iii) Furnish to the Corporation appropriate documentation that the person or persons exercising the option (if other than Optionee) have the right to exercise this option.
(b) Except to the extent the sale and remittance procedure is utilized in connection with the option exercise, payment of the Exercise Price must accompany the Notice of Exercise (or the Purchase Agreement) delivered to the Corporation in connection with the option exercise.
(c) As soon after the Exercise Date as practical, the Corporation shall issue to or on behalf of Optionee (or any other person or persons exercising this option) a certificate for the purchased Option Shares, with the appropriate legends affixed thereto. To the extent any such Option Shares are unvested, the certificates for those Option Shares shall be endorsed with an appropriate legend evidencing the Corporation's repurchase rights and may be held in escrow with the Corporation until such shares vest.
(d) In no event may this option be exercised for any fractional shares.
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.
Vesting and Exercise Once vested, this Warrant may be exercised as -------------------- to such vested portion whether or not at the time of such exercise the Warrantholder is an employee of (or consultant to) the Company (or one or more of its subsidiaries); however, this Warrant shall automatically terminate as to any unvested portion at any such time as the Warrantholder is no longer employed by (or a consultant to) the Company (or any of its subsidiaries). If this Warrant is not exercised prior to 5:00 P.M. on the Expiration Date (or the next succeeding Business Day, if the Expiration Date is a Nonbusiness Day), this Warrant, or any new Warrant issued pursuant to Section 1.1, shall cease to be exercisable and shall become void and all rights of the Warrantholder hereunder shall cease. This Warrant shall not be exercisable, and no Warrant Shares shall be issued hereunder, prior to 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on the applicable Exercise Date.
