Parent Stock Options Clause Samples
The Parent Stock Options clause defines how stock options granted by the parent company are treated, typically in the context of a merger, acquisition, or other corporate transaction. It outlines whether existing options will be assumed, substituted, cashed out, or otherwise adjusted, and may specify the terms for exercise or conversion of these options. This clause ensures that employees and option holders understand the fate of their equity interests during significant corporate events, providing clarity and protecting both the company and its stakeholders from disputes or misunderstandings regarding stock option rights.
Parent Stock Options. At the Effective Time, each compensatory option to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock (a “Parent Stock Option”) that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, whether vested or unvested, shall be converted into a stock option in respect of shares of Holdco Common Stock, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Parent Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time (including with respect to vesting), relating to the number of shares of Holdco Common Stock equal to the total number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to such Parent Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time and with an exercise price per share of Holdco Common Stock equal to the exercise price per share of Parent Common Stock subject to such Parent Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Following the First Effective Time, no Parent Stock Option that was outstanding immediately prior to the First Effective Time shall remain outstanding and each former holder of a Parent Stock Option will cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except to receive the consideration (if any) set forth in this Section 2.3(a) in exchange for such Parent Stock Option, as applicable, in accordance with this Section 2.3(a).
