Lapse of Forfeiture Restrictions Clause Samples

The Lapse of Forfeiture Restrictions clause defines when and how restrictions that could cause an individual to forfeit certain rights or assets—such as stock or options—are removed. Typically, this clause outlines specific conditions or timeframes, such as continued employment for a set period or achievement of performance milestones, after which the forfeiture risk no longer applies. Its core function is to provide clarity and predictability for both parties regarding when ownership or rights become fully vested and protected from forfeiture, thereby incentivizing performance and retention.
