Equity Compensation. All unvested equity awards, including, but not limited to, stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock awards, held by Employee on the Date of Termination shall be deemed vested and exercisable on such Date of Termination as if Employee had been employed for an additional twelve (12) months following the Date of Termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any option, right or award would, as a result of such accelerated vesting and exercisability no longer qualify for exemption under Section 16 of the Exchange Act, then the deemed acceleration of the vesting of such option, right or award shall apply but such option, right or award shall not become exercisable until the earliest date on which it could become exercisable and also qualify for exemption from Section 16 of the Exchange Act, unless Employee instead timely elects to receive a single lump sum cash payment equal to the value of such option, right or award, in lieu of the equity interest that Employee would otherwise receive but for the lack of an exemption under Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Any repurchase rights held by the Company on stock owned or options exercised by Employee shall be canceled on the Date of Termination. To the extent the acceleration of vesting and exercisability described in this Section 4(a)(ii) does not otherwise violate the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, this Agreement shall serve as an amendment to all of Employee’s outstanding stock options, restricted stock awards, repurchase rights, and stock appreciation rights as of the Date of Termination.
