Adjustments in RSUs Pursuant to Change of Control or Similar Event, etc Clause Samples

This clause defines how Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) are to be adjusted in the event of a change of control or similar significant corporate event, such as a merger, acquisition, or reorganization. Typically, it outlines the process for modifying the number, terms, or vesting schedule of RSUs to ensure that employees are treated fairly and equitably despite changes in the company's structure or ownership. The core function of this clause is to protect the interests of RSU holders by ensuring their awards are not unfairly diluted, forfeited, or otherwise negatively impacted due to major corporate transactions.
