All stock options and stock awards (and similar equity rights) held by the Executive that have vested prior to such termination of this Agreement may be exercised by the Executive for a period of ninety (90) days after the date of termination, at which time they shall automatically be forfeited if not exercised. All stock options and stock awards (and similar equity rights) that have not vested prior to such termination shall be forfeited by the Executive. For purposes of this Agreement, an election by the Company not to renew this Agreement beyond the end of the then-current Term shall be considered a termination of this Agreement.
