Common use of Non-survival of Company Clause in Contracts

Non-survival of Company. In the event of a dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any merger or combination in which the Company is not a surviving corporation, the outstanding portion, if any, of the Option granted hereunder shall terminate, but the Optionee shall have the right, immediately prior to such event, to exercise the Option, in whole or in part, to the extent that such Option is then otherwise exercisable and has not previously been exercised; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any such event, the Board may modify the Option granted hereunder so as to accelerate, as a consequence of such transaction, the vesting of the Optionee’s right to exercise such Option.
