Accelerated or Continued Vesting in Certain Circumstances Sample Clauses

The "Accelerated or Continued Vesting in Certain Circumstances" clause defines when an employee’s unvested equity awards, such as stock options or restricted stock units, will vest more quickly or continue to vest despite events that might otherwise interrupt the normal vesting schedule. Typically, this clause applies in situations like a company merger, acquisition, or the employee’s termination without cause, where the employee might otherwise lose unvested equity. Its core function is to protect employees by ensuring they are not unfairly deprived of earned equity due to circumstances beyond their control, thereby providing security and incentivizing retention.
