In the event of a Change in Control, notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, the Option shall become immediately vested and exercisable with respect to 100% of the shares subject to the Option. To the extent practicable, such acceleration of vesting and exercisability shall occur in a manner and at a time which allows the Participant the ability to participate in the Change in Control with respect to the shares of Common Stock received.
Acceleration of Vesting. The Committee may at any time or times in its discretion accelerate the vesting of some or all of your Restricted Shares by specifying a date, other than what is provided in this Agreement, on which the Period of Restriction ends and such Shares will no longer be subject to restrictions. Any such Shares that become vested under this paragraph 7 will not be forfeited under paragraph 8 of this Restricted Shares Award section.
Acceleration of Vesting. A Participant’s vested interest in his Account will automatically be 100% upon the occurrence of the following events: [select the ones that are applicable]:
Acceleration of Vesting. Unless the Option has earlier terminated pursuant to the provision of the Agreement, vesting of the Option shall be accelerated so that all unvested shares of Stock subject to the Option shall become one hundred percent (100%) vested in the Grantee upon a Change of Control.

Acceleration of Vesting. The provisions concerning vesting pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) below will be cumulative, and are hereby deemed to be a part of all stock options, restricted stock and such other awards granted during the term of the Original Employment Agreement or this Agreement pursuant to the Company’s stock option and equity incentive award plans or agreements and any shares of stock issued upon exercise thereof, (each a “Stock Award”), and to supersede any less favorable provision in any agreement or plan regarding such Stock Award.
Acceleration of Vesting. Notwithstanding Section 1.4(a), the Units held by Participant vest on the occurrence of any of the following events:

Acceleration of Vesting. Effective at the time of termination of employment, all unvested stock options and stock previously issued to Executive as to which rights of ownership are subject to forfeiture shall immediately vest; all risk of forfeiture of the ownership of stock or stock options and restrictions on the exercise of options shall lapse; and, Executive shall be entitled to exercise any or all options, such that the underlying shares will be considered outstanding at the time of the termination of employment.
Acceleration of Vesting. If, prior to the Participant's Normal Retirement Age, and prior to the date the Participant dies, becomes Disabled or experiences a Separation from Service, there is a Change in Control of the Plan Sponsor, then the Participant shall be One Hundred (100%) percent vested in his Normal Retirement Benefit.
