Common use of Other Acceleration Rules Clause in Contracts

Other Acceleration Rules. Any acceleration of the Option pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall comply with applicable legal requirements and, if necessary to accomplish the purposes of the acceleration or if the circumstances require, may be deemed by the Administrator to occur a limited period of time not greater than 30 days before the event that triggered such acceleration. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator may deem an acceleration to occur immediately prior to the applicable event and/or reinstate the original terms of the Option if the event giving rise to such acceleration does not occur. The Administrator may accord the Optionee a right to refuse any acceleration in such circumstances as the Administrator may approve. If the Option is designated as an ISO, the portion of the Option accelerated in connection with a Change in Control Event (or such other circumstances as may trigger accelerated vesting of the Option) shall remain exercisable as an ISO only to the extent the applicable $100,000 limitation on ISOs is not exceeded. To the extent exceeded, the accelerated portion of the Option shall be exercisable as a nonqualified stock option.
