Grant Restricted Stock Clause Samples

The "Grant Restricted Stock" clause establishes the terms under which an individual receives shares of company stock that are subject to certain restrictions, such as vesting schedules or limitations on transfer. Typically, this clause outlines the number of shares granted, the conditions that must be met for the restrictions to lapse (such as continued employment or achievement of performance goals), and the consequences if those conditions are not met. Its core practical function is to incentivize recipients to remain with the company and align their interests with the company's long-term success, while protecting the company from immediate stock dilution or loss of key personnel.
