Change in Control Event. Upon a Change in Control Event (as defined in the Plan), the acquiring or succeeding entity (or an affiliate thereof) shall assume each outstanding PSU such that, following the consummation of the Change in Control Event, the PSU confers the Participant with the right to receive, for each Share subject to the award, the consideration (whether cash, securities or other property) received by each holder of Common Stock immediately prior to the Change in Control Event (theReplacement Award”), provided that # such Replacement Award shall vest solely based on the Participant’s continued provision of services with the Company (as described on Section 2(b) hereof) until the last day of the performance period set forth on [Schedule 1] and shall not, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to achievement of the performance goals set forth on [Schedule 1] and # the amount of cash, securities or other property subject to such Replacement Award shall be determined assuming that the number of shares subject to the PSU is equal to the target number of Shares issuable under this Agreement (as set forth on [Schedule 1]) for the performance period. In the event that the Participant’s employment is terminated by either the Company or its successor without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason (as such terms are defined in the Plan) within eighteen (18) months following a Change in Control Event, the remaining unvested portion of the Replacement Award shall become vested as of the date of the Participant’s termination of employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the acquiring or succeeding entity (or an affiliate thereof) refuses to assume the PSUs and grant Replacement Awards in connection with a Change in Control Event, this PSU award shall become vested, immediately prior to the Change in Control Event, with respect to the target number of Shares (as set forth on [Schedule 1]) for the performance period.
