Vesting and Settlement The Restricted Shares shall cease to constitute Restricted Shares, and shall become unrestricted Shares, pursuant to the vesting schedule attached as Exhibit A.
Vesting; Settlement The RSUs shall become vested in accordance with the schedule set forth on the Award Notice. The Company shall deliver to the Participant one share of Common Stock for each RSU (as adjusted under the Plan) which becomes vested in a given calendar year, pursuant to Section 12, below, and such vested RSU shall be cancelled upon such delivery.
Vesting and Exercisability (a) No portion of this Stock Option may be exercised until such portion shall have vested.
Unvested Common Shares Issued in Settlement of Performance Share Awards If the Executive terminates employment pursuant to Sections 6(b), 6(d) or 6(e)(i) after the Performance Share Vesting Date, the vesting of all Unvested Common Shares (as defined in the Performance Share Agreement) issued in settlement of the Performance Share Award shall be accelerated in full effective as of the date of such termination.
Vesting of PSUs The PSUs are subject to forfeiture until they vest. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the PSUs will vest and become non-forfeitable on the last day of the Performance Period, subject to (a) the achievement of the minimum threshold performance goals for payout set forth in the attached Exhibit A, (b) the certification of the performance results for the PSUs by the Committee, and (c) there being no termination of Grantee’s employment (as determined pursuant to Section 7.2 of the Plan) from the Grant Date through the last day of the Performance Period. The number of PSUs that vest and become payable under this Agreement shall be determined by the Committee based on the level of achievement of the performance goals set forth on the attached Exhibit A and shall be rounded to the nearest whole PSU.
Vesting and Lapse of Restrictions Subject to Sections 2.2(a) and 2.2(c), the Award shall vest and Restrictions shall lapse in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth on the Grant Notice.
Vesting and Payment If you remain employed through the Vest Date, the Award will be paid on the Original Settlement Date or Agreed Settlement Date (as defined below), whichever is applicable. If your Termination of Employment occurs for any reason before the Vest Date except for the reasons listed below, the Award will be forfeited. For the purposes of this Award, Termination of Employment will be effective as of the date that you are no longer actively employed and will not be extended by any notice period required under local law.
Vesting Date All remaining shares of Restricted Stock will become vested on the Vesting Date.
Vesting Any Class A preferred shares issuable hereunder shall be subject to cliff vesting on December 31, 2025 (the “Initial Vesting Date”), and in the event vesting occurs on the Initial Vesting Date, a new cliff vesting period shall apply to all Class A shares issuable to Masterworks from and after such Initial Vesting Date until the three-year anniversary of such Initial Vesting Date and all of such Class A preferred shares will vest on such three-year anniversary of the Initial Vesting Date and such process will be repeated in successive three-year periods (each such vesting date, together with the Initial Vesting Date, a “Vesting Date”). Any vesting period may be extended for a five-year period or shortened in accordance with this Section 6, provided, that any applicable Vesting Date shall be accelerated upon an Approved Sale to the date any such Approved Sale is consummated, except in the case that such sale is not approved by the Special Committee. At any time prior to the 12-month anniversary of the applicable Vesting Date, the Parties can mutually agree in writing to extend the Vesting Date for one or more additional five-year periods, or agree at any time to accelerate the Vesting Date to an earlier date, provided that any agreement to accelerate the Vesting Date to an earlier date (other than in connection with a sale of the Artwork) shall be ineffective unless and until the Company obtains the consent of holders of a majority of the Class A shares eligible to vote on such matter. Any Class A shares beneficially owned by the Administrator and its affiliates shall not be eligible to vote on such matter. The unvested Class A preferred shares issued or issuable hereunder shall be forfeited if this Agreement is terminated prior to the applicable Vesting Date or if the Special Committee does not approve a sale of the Artwork. The Administrator may also, in its sole discretion, reduce unearned management fees or voluntarily forfeit any unvested management fees, in whole or in part. Any Class A preferred shares that are forfeited shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and shall have no rights to distributions. All of the Class A preferred shares issued pursuant to this Agreement prior to the Effective Date shall be fully vested upon issuance and shall not be subject to the vesting provisions set forth in this Section 6. The holders of the Company’s Class A shares may remove and replace the Administrator with another person or entity by the affirmative vote of two-thirds (2/3) of the Class A shares eligible to vote, such removal to take effect on the date any such successor administrator has been appointed (the “Removal Effective Date”).
Equity Vesting All of the then-unvested shares subject to each of the Executive’s then-outstanding equity awards will immediately vest and, in the case of options and stock appreciation rights, will become exercisable (for avoidance of doubt, no more than 100% of the shares subject to the then-outstanding portion of an equity award may vest and become exercisable under this provision). In the case of equity awards with performance-based vesting, all performance goals and other vesting criteria will be deemed achieved at the greater of actual performance or 100% of target levels. Unless otherwise required under the next following two sentences or, with respect to awards subject to Section 409A of the Code, under Section 5(b) below, any restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, and/or similar full value awards that vest under this paragraph will be settled on the 61st day following the CIC Qualified Termination. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Executive’s Qualified Termination occurs prior to a Change in Control, then any unvested portion of the Executive’s then-outstanding equity awards will remain outstanding for 3 months or the occurrence of a Change in Control (whichever is earlier) so that any additional benefits due on a CIC Qualified Termination can be provided if a Change in Control occurs within 3 months following the Qualified Termination (provided that in no event will the Executive’s stock options or similar equity awards remain outstanding beyond the equity award’s maximum term to expiration). In such case, if no Change in Control occurs within 3 months following a Qualified Termination, any unvested portion of the Executive’s equity awards automatically will be forfeited permanently on the 3-month anniversary of the Qualified Termination without having vested.
