Automatic Exercise contract clause examples

Automatic Exercise. Any Option Shares that are exercisable but unexercised as of the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date shall be automatically exercised on the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date if the purchase price of an Option Share is less than the Fair Market Value of a Share on such date and the automatic exercise will result in the issuance of at least one (1) whole Share to the Participant after payment of the purchase price and any applicable tax withholding requirements. Payment of the purchase price and any applicable tax withholding requirements shall be made by having the number of Shares to be issued upon exercise reduced by a number of Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the purchase price and any applicable tax withholding requirements.

Automatic Cashless Exercise upon Expiration. In the event that, upon the Expiration Date, the fair market value of one Share as determined in accordance with Section 2.3 above is greater than the Exercise Price in effect on such date, then this Warrant shall automatically be deemed on and as of such date to have been exercised pursuant to Section 2.2 above as to all Shares for which it shall not previously have been exercised, and the Company shall, within a reasonable time following Holder’s written request, deliver a certificate, which may be in electronic form (or, in the case of uncertificated securities, provide notice of book entry) representing the Shares issued to Holder upon such exercise.

Automatic Deferrals - Newly Eligible Employees: If, on or before the 45th day after the date an Employee becomes eligible to participate under Section 3.1, the Employee has not affirmatively chosen to defer a portion of his Compensation as a Pre-Tax Contribution to the Plan (including a zero Pre-Tax Contribution percentage), the Employee automatically will be enrolled to defer four percent (4%) of his Compensation as a Pre-Tax Contribution.

Automatic Termination. This Agreement shall terminate automatically when upon satisfaction of the conditions in [Section 6.1] or [Section 6.2] of the Shareholders Agreement, as the case may be, TLC is unable to enjoy corresponding rights as set forth in [Section 6.1] or [Section 6.2] of the Shareholders’ Agreement (i.e., TLC’s shareholding in TLC Hong Kong drops under ​ or TLC fails to receive the TLC Preference Payment from the proceeds of sale under [Section 6.2] of the Shareholders’ Agreement).

Automatic Grants. The Awards to be made pursuant to the Automatic Grant Program shall be as follows:

Automatic Purchase. On each Purchase Date, subject to such Participant remaining an Eligible Employee through such Purchase Date, each Participant shall be deemed, automatically and without further action on the part of the Participant, to have elected to purchase the largest number of whole, or if determined in the Committee’s discretion, fractional Shares, that the Contributions in the Participant’s Account can purchase at the Purchase Price on the Purchase Date, subject to the limitations of Article VII. Except as otherwise specified by the Committee, any Contributions that are not sufficient to purchase a whole Share and any other amounts remaining in a Participant’s Account after the Purchase Date will be returned to the Participant.

Automatic Distributions. Notwithstanding any payment elections made on Deferral Forms and Section 5.2:

Automatic Conversion and Continuation. Each Floating Rate Advance shall continue as a Floating Rate Advance unless and until such Floating Rate Advance is converted into a Eurocurrency Rate Advance. Each Eurocurrency Rate Advance in Dollars shall continue as a Eurocurrency Rate Advance in Dollars until the end of the then applicable Interest Period therefor, at which time such Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall be automatically converted into a Floating Rate Advance unless shall have given the Administrative Agent notice in accordance with [Section 2.9(D)] requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Eurocurrency Rate Advance continue as a Eurocurrency Rate Advance in Dollars. Unless a Borrowing/Election Notice shall have timely been given in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.9, each Eurocurrency Rate Advance in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall automatically continue as a Eurocurrency Rate Advance in such Agreed Currency with an Interest Period of one (1) month.

The Plan administrator may provide that any option outstanding on the last business day of the term of such option (“Automatic Exercise Date”) that has a “Specified Minimum Value” shall be automatically and without further action by the Outside Director (or in the event of the Outside Director’s death, the Outside Director’s personal representative or estate) be exercised on the Automatic Exercise Date. Payment of the exercise price of such option may be made pursuant to such procedures as may be approved by the Plan administrator from time to time. For purposes of this Section 3, the term “Specified Minimum Value” means that the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock exceeds the exercise price of a share of Common Stock subject to an expiring option by at least $0.50 cents per share or such other amount as the Plan administrator shall determine from time to time. The Plan administrator may elect to discontinue the automatic exercise of options pursuant to this Section 3 at any time upon notice to an Outside Director. The automatic exercise of an option pursuant to this Section 3 shall apply only to an option award that has been timely accepted by an Outside Director under any procedures specified by the Plan administrator from time to time.

Exercise. A Participant electing to exercise an Option shall give written notice to the Company, as may be specified by the Committee, of exercise of the Option and the number of Shares elected for exercise, such notice to be accompanied by such instruments or documents as may be required by the Committee, and shall tender the purchase price of the Shares elected for exercise. To the extent an Option is not previously exercised as to all of the Shares subject thereto immediately prior to its expiration, if the fair market value of one Share is greater than the exercise price then in effect, then the Option shall be deemed automatically exercised at such time.
