Common use of Termination of Employment Prior to Vesting Clause in Contracts

Termination of Employment Prior to Vesting. Notwithstanding Section 3(a), the Participant’s Stock Units (and any Stock Units credited as dividend equivalents) shall terminate to the extent such Stock Units have not become vested prior to the first date the Participant is no longer employed by the Corporation or one of its Subsidiaries, regardless of the reason for the termination of the Participant’s employment with the Corporation or a Subsidiary; provided, however, that if the Participant’s employment is terminated by the Corporation or a Subsidiary as a result of the Participant’s death or Total Disability, the Participant’s Stock Units, to the extent such units are not then vested, shall become fully vested as of the date of termination of the Participant’s employment. If the Participant is employed by a Subsidiary and that entity ceases to be a Subsidiary, such event shall be deemed to be a termination of employment of the Participant for purposes of this Agreement (unless the Participant otherwise continues to be employed by the Corporation or another of its Subsidiaries following such event). If any unvested Stock Units are terminated hereunder, such Stock Units (and any Stock Units credited as dividend equivalents) shall automatically terminate and be cancelled as of the applicable termination date without payment of any consideration by the Corporation and without any other action by the Participant, or the Participant’s beneficiary or personal representative, as the case may be.
