Common use of Replacement Option Clause in Contracts

Replacement Option. In the manner described hereunder, the Partnership hereby agrees to grant a replacement unit option ("Replacement Unit Option") under the Unit Option Plan contingent upon (a) the consummation of the Merger, (b) the approval of the Unit Option Plan by a majority of the unitholders of the Partnership, and (c) the Optionee's continued service as a director of Homes until immediately prior to the Effective Time and Optionee's agreement to serve as a director of the Partnership's general partner after the Effective Time. Specifically, as a replacement of the Canceled Stock Option, on an aggregate basis, the Partnership shall issue to Optionee a Replacement Unit Option to purchase the number of Class A Units of the Partnership equal to the product of the "Conversion Ratio" (as defined in the Merger Agreement) multiplied by the aggregate number of shares of Homes common stock that are subject to the Canceled Stock Option. The exercise price per unit of the Replacement Unit Option shall be equal to the exercise price per share of the Canceled Stock Option divided by the Conversion Ratio. In the event that the grant of the Replacement Unit Option would result in an option to acquire a fractional Class A Unit, such fractional Class A Unit shall not be issued, and the aggregate exercise price for the Replacement Unit Option shall be reduced by the proportionate amount of the aggregate exercise price attributable to the fractional Class A Unit. The Replacement Unit Option shall be exercisable in accordance with the same vesting dates and expiration date as exist under the Canceled Stock Option, disregarding acceleration of such dates attributable to the Merger. Thus, the Replacement Unit Option shall have an expiration date of ten years from the date of grant of the Canceled Stock Option, and shall be exercisable in 18 equal and successive monthly installments over the Optionee's period of service as a member of the Board of Directors of Homes or the Managing Partner or as an employee of Homes or the Partnership, with the first installment to commence upon the completion of six months of service measured from the date of grant of the Canceled Stock Option. However, unless as otherwise provided herein, the benefits, rights, and features of the Replacement Unit Option shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the Unit Option Plan. New unit option agreements granting the Replacement Unit Option under the Unit Option Plan shall be distributed to the Optionee as soon as practicable following the Effective Time. The Replacement Unit Option as determined and granted in accordance with this Section 2 as of the Effective Time shall be as follows:
