Vesting Upon Change in Control. Upon a Change in Control occurring during the Measurement Period and prior to the Recipient’s termination of employment with the Company and its Affiliates, the Restricted Stock Units may be assumed or replaced by the Company or its successor for a substantially similar equity or cash incentive award that (i) is based on the Target number of Restricted Stock Units and (ii) will be subject only to service-based vesting through a date not later than the Measurement Date.
