Non-Transferability of Restricted Stock The Restricted Stock and this Restricted Stock Agreement shall not be transferable.
Treatment of Restricted Stock Subject to Article III, Section C of the Plan and Section 13(b), in the event of a Change in Control, in the Company’s discretion, (i) the unvested shares of Restricted Stock may be continued (if the Company is the surviving entity); (ii) the unvested shares of Restricted Stock may be assumed by the successor entity or parent thereof; (iii) the successor entity or parent thereof may substitute for the shares of unvested Restricted Stock a similar stock award with substantially similar terms; (iv) an appropriate substitution of cash or other securities or property may be made for the unvested shares of Restricted Stock based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares issuable upon vesting of the Restricted Stock at the time of the Change in Control; and/or (v) vesting of the unvested Restricted Stock may be accelerated upon the Change in Control.
Company Restricted Stock Immediately prior to the Effective Time, any then-outstanding shares of Company Restricted Stock shall become fully vested and the Company shall be entitled to deduct and withhold such number of shares of Company Common Stock otherwise deliverable upon such acceleration to satisfy any applicable income and employment withholding Taxes (assuming a fair market value of a share of Company Common Stock equal to the closing price of the Company Common Stock on the last completed trading day immediately prior to the Closing). All shares of Company Common Stock then-outstanding as a result of the full vesting of the shares of Company Restricted Stock and the satisfaction of any applicable income and employment withholding Taxes shall have the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Securities Law Transfer Restrictions By taking and holding this Warrant, the Holder (i) acknowledges that neither this Warrant nor any shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon exercise of this Warrant have been registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities or blue sky law (collectively, "Securities Laws"); (ii) agrees not to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of this Warrant, and agrees not to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any such shares of Common Stock without registration unless the sale, transfer or disposition of such shares can be effected without registration and in compliance with the Securities Laws; and (iii) agrees not to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any portion thereof or interest therein except as otherwise expressly permitted herein. No part of this Warrant or any portion thereof or interest therein may be transferred, whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law, except to a Permitted Transferee as hereinafter defined. “Permitted Transferee” shall mean a transferee or assignee that (a)(i) is an entity as to which the Holder is the beneficial owner of at least a majority of the equity therein and the Holder has voting control thereover, (ii) is a member of the Holder's family or a trust for the benefit of an individual Holder or (iii) a successor by inheritance or intestate succession to any interest in this Warrant or any portion thereof and (b) accepts by written instrument reasonably acceptable to the Company each of the terms and conditions that govern this Warrant. Any certificate for shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall bear an appropriate legend describing the foregoing restrictions, unless such shares of Common Stock have been effectively registered under the applicable Securities Laws.
Company Restricted Shares At the Effective Time, each share of Company Stock subject to vesting, repurchase or other restrictions pursuant to the Company Stock Plan (a “Company Restricted Share”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall vest in full and become free of restrictions and any repurchase rights shall lapse, and the holder thereof shall be entitled to receive only the Merger Consideration with respect to each such Company Restricted Share in accordance with Section 2.05(b).
TITLE TO SECURITIES; RESTRICTED SHARES The Participant represents and warrants on behalf of itself and any party for which it acts that Deposit Securities delivered by it to the custodian and/or any relevant sub-custodian in connection with a Purchase Order will not be “restricted securities,” as such term is used in Rule 144(a)(3)(i) of the 1933 Act, and, at the time of delivery, the Fund will acquire good and unencumbered title to such Deposit Securities, free and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges and encumbrances, and not be subject to any adverse claims.
Stock Options; Restricted Stock The foregoing benefits are intended to be in addition to the value of any options to acquire Common Stock of the Company, the exercisability of which is accelerated pursuant to the terms of any stock option agreement, any restricted stock the vesting of which is accelerated pursuant to the terms of the restricted stock agreement, and any other incentive or similar plan heretofore or hereafter adopted by the Company.
Securities Law Restrictions In addition to any restrictions to be contained in that certain letter agreement (commonly known as an “Insider Letter”) to be dated as of the closing of the IPO by and between Subscriber and the Company, Subscriber agrees not to sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Shares unless, prior thereto (a) a registration statement on the appropriate form under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws with respect to the Shares proposed to be transferred shall then be effective or (b) the Company has received an opinion from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such registration is not required because such transaction is exempt from registration under the Securities Act and the rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder and with all applicable state securities laws.
