Forfeiture and Transfer Restrictions Clause Samples

The Forfeiture and Transfer Restrictions clause defines the conditions under which a party may lose ownership rights to certain assets or interests, and sets limitations on how and when these assets can be transferred to others. Typically, this clause applies to shares, membership interests, or other property, specifying scenarios such as breach of agreement, non-compliance, or failure to meet certain obligations that could trigger forfeiture. By clearly outlining these rules, the clause helps prevent unauthorized transfers and ensures that ownership remains with qualified parties, thereby protecting the integrity and intended structure of the agreement.
Forfeiture and Transfer Restrictions. The Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to forfeiture until the Service Vesting Date. In addition, Grantee shall not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber or dispose of, by operation of law or otherwise, the Restricted Stock Units. Upon vesting on the Service Vesting Date and issuance of the number of shares of Stock to which Grantee is entitled hereunder, Grantee may transfer the shares of Stock in accordance with applicable securities law requirements and the Company’s policies and procedures.
Forfeiture and Transfer Restrictions. (a) Upon the occurrence of a “Forfeiture Event” (as defined below), Restricted Shares that are not vested pursuant to paragraph 2 of this Agreement shall be forfeited by the Director to the Company. The Director shall thereafter have no right, title or interest whatever in such Restricted Shares, and the Director shall immediately return to the Company any and all certificates representing Restricted Shares so forfeited, duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by a stock power duly endorsed in blank. A “Forfeiture Event” shall be defined as any of the following events: (i) the Director ceases to serve as a member of the Board other than in the circumstances described in paragraph 2; or (ii) the Director attempts to transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Restricted Shares. (b) Until the Restricted Shares have become vested under paragraph 2 hereof, the Director shall not transfer such Restricted Shares, and such Restricted Shares shall not be subject to pledge, hypothecation, execution, attachment or similar process. Any attempt to sell, assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any Restricted Shares contrary to the provisions hereof, and any attempt to levy any attachment or pursue any similar process with respect to them, shall be null and void.
Forfeiture and Transfer Restrictions. Effective on the date hereof, all of the Recipient’s shares of Restricted Stock shall be duly issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock for all purposes, provided, however, that such shares shall be subject to forfeiture pursuant to subsection 1(a) (the “Forfeiture Conditions”) and subject to transfer restrictions pursuant to subsection 1(b) (the “Transfer Restrictions”).
Forfeiture and Transfer Restrictions a. Except to the extent otherwise provided in paragraphs (b) or (c) below, upon termination of your agreement for any reason during the Restriction Period (as defined below), all Shares still subject to restriction shall be forfeited by you and shall be repurchased by the Company for an amount equal to the original purchase price. This restriction is referred to as the “Forfeiture Restriction.” In addition, you shall not be permitted to sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber any Shares until lapse of the Restriction Period. This restriction is referred to as the “Transfer Restriction.” b. All Forfeiture and Transfer Restrictions on the Shares will lapse on the earlier of or on your last day as an employee of the Company (the “Restriction Period”), or in the event of a Change of Control as such term is defined in the Change of Control Agreement between the parties, whichever is earlier. c. In the event of a dissolution, liquidation, merger or consolidation under the terms of the Plan, the Administrator of the Plan may, in its discretion, arrange for new shares of restricted stock to be substituted for the Shares or for the Company’s obligations as to the Shares to be assumed by an employer corporation other than the Company or by a parent or subsidiary of such employer corporation, or the Administrator may waive the restrictions on the Shares as more fully described in the Plan. d. If the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company are increased or decreased in number or changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of securities of the Company or any other corporation by reason of a recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, combination of shares, stock dividend or other event, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, adjust the number of Shares or substitute new shares of restricted stock for the Shares.
