Stock Options and Restricted Stock (a) Upon termination of the Executive’s employment with the Employer without Cause or as a result of a Constructive Termination without Cause, all restrictions on any Equity Award granted or issued by the Employer or any of the Participating Subsidiaries to the Employee after the Effective Date, including any transferability or vesting restrictions, immediately shall lapse. The Executive additionally shall have the immediate right to exercise any Employer stock options in full (without regard to any restriction on the underlying stock, and whether granted under this Agreement or otherwise), whether or not any such option is fully exercisable on the date of termination, for the remainder of the original full maximum term of each such stock option. In addition, in the event that the Executive’s employment is terminated for any reason within one (1) year following the consummation of a Change in Control (including, without limitation, the date of the consummation) then the Executive shall be entitled, at the Executive’s option and without the preclusion or reduction of any benefit otherwise available to him under this Agreement (pursuant to Section 12.6 or otherwise), to exercise all options granted previously to the Executive during the longest period permissible under the terms of the plan under which such options were issued from the Change in Control Closing Date, and additionally to freely transfer any options held, directly or indirectly, by the Executive as of the Change in Control Closing Date.
Company Options Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take all actions necessary and appropriate to provide that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, each unexpired and unexercised option or similar right to purchase Company Common Stock (each, a “Company Option”), under any stock option plan of the Company (including the Company’s 1998 Stock Compensation Program) or any other plan, agreement or arrangement (the “Company Stock Option Plans”), whether or not then exercisable or vested, shall be cancelled and, in exchange therefor, each former holder of any such cancelled Company Option shall be entitled to receive (as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time), in consideration of the cancellation of such Company Option and in settlement therefor, (i) a payment in cash (subject to any applicable withholding or other taxes required by applicable Law to be withheld) of an amount equal to the product of (A) the total number of shares of Company Common Stock previously subject to such Company Option and (B) the excess, if any, of the Initial Common Consideration over the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock previously subject to such Company Option, and (ii) whether or not there is any excess of the Initial Common Consideration over the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock previously subject to such Company Option, a number of Common Stock Contingent Value Rights equal to the total number of shares of Company Common Stock previously subject to such Company Option (such amounts payable hereunder being referred to as the “Option Payment”). From and after the Effective Time, any such cancelled Company Option shall no longer be exercisable by the former holder thereof, but shall only entitle such holder to the payment of the Option Payment, and, prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall obtain all necessary consents to ensure that former holders of Company Options will have no rights other than the right to receive the Option Payment.
Restricted Stock Awards Each Restricted Stock Award shall be evidenced by a Restricted Stock Award Agreement, which shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and conditions:
Company Option Plans At the Effective Time, all options (the "Company Options") then outstanding, whether or not vested and exercisable, under the Company's 1982 Stock Option Plan, 1992 Stock Option Plan, 1993 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors and the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan, in each case as in effect on the date hereof (collectively, the "Company Option Plans"), shall be assumed by Parent. Each Company Option assumed by Parent, other than Company Options issued pursuant to the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan, shall be subject to, and exercisable upon, the same terms and conditions as under the applicable Company Option Plan and the applicable option agreement issued thereunder, except that (a) each assumed Company Option shall be exercisable for, and represent the right to acquire, that number of shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Exchange Ratio; and (b) the option price per share of Parent Common Stock subject to each assumed Company Option shall be an amount equal to (i) the option price per share of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by (ii) the Exchange Ratio (rounded up to the nearest whole cent). The Company represents and warrants that each of the foregoing actions may be taken and effected by the Company without the consent of any holder of Company Options. Each assumed purchase right under the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan shall continue to have, and be subject to, the terms and conditions set forth in the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan and the documents governing the assumed purchase right, except that the purchase price of such shares of Parent Common Stock for each respective purchase date under each assumed purchase right shall be the lower of (i) the quotient determined by dividing eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of Company Common Stock on the offering date of each assumed offering period by the Exchange Ratio or (ii) eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of the Parent Common Stock on each purchase date of each assumed offering period occurring after the Effective Time (with the number of shares rounded to the nearest whole share and the purchase price rounded to the nearest whole cent). The assumed purchase rights shall be exercised at such times following the Effective Time as set forth in the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan and each participant shall, accordingly, be issued shares of Parent Common Stock at such times pursuant to the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan shall terminate with the exercise of the last assumed purchase right, and no additional purchase rights shall be granted under the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan following the Effective Time. Parent agrees that from and after the Effective Time, employees of the Surviving Corporation may participate in Parent's employee stock purchase plan, subject to the terms and conditions of such plan. The adjustment provided herein with respect to Company Options shall be and is intended to be effected in a manner which is consistent with Section 424(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The duration, vesting schedule, exercisability and other terms of each Company Option immediately after the Effective Time shall be the same as the corresponding terms in effect immediately before the Effective Time, except that all references to Company in the Company Option Plans (and the corresponding references in the option agreement documenting such option) shall be deemed to be references to Parent. Except as set forth in Section 3.2(d) of the Disclosure Schedule (as defined in Article III hereof), vesting of Company Options shall not be accelerated as a result of the Merger. Continuous employment with the Company or its Subsidiaries shall be credited to the optionee for purposes of determining the vesting of all assumed Company Options after the Effective Time. As soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the Effective Time, Parent will issue to each holder of an assumed Company Option notice of the foregoing assumption by Parent. Parent shall file with the SEC, no later than thirty (30) business days after the Effective Time, a Registration Statement on Form S-8 relating to the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable with respect to the Company Options assumed by Parent in accordance with this Section 2.6.

Restricted Stock Units Subject to the terms and conditions provided in this Agreement and the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Grantee restricted stock units (the “Restricted Stock Units”) as of the Grant Date. Each Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive a Share of Common Stock if the Restricted Stock Unit becomes vested and non-forfeitable in accordance with Section 2 or Section 3 of this Agreement.
