Vesting. Your Award shall vest as follows:

Vesting. The Retention Incentive shall vest and be earned on the Retention Date provided Employee is still employed by Albany on such date and it has been determined, in Albany’s sole discretion, that Employee has substantially completed the transition of his duties. In the event that Albany terminates Employee’s employment prior to the Retention Date without Cause (as defined in paragraph 5), Albany shall be obligated to pay Employee the Retention Incentive upon termination; in the event Employee’s employment with Albany terminates prior to the Retention Date for any other reason, the Retention Incentive shall be forfeited and shall never vest.

Vesting. Unless an Award Agreement expressly provides otherwise, each Participant shall be 100% vested at all times in any Shares subject to Deferred Share Units.

Vesting. The Units and all related Dividend Equivalents shall not be delivered to the Employee and may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered by the Employee until such Units have vested in accordance with the following schedule:

Vesting. A Stock Option shall become vested and nonforfeitable as determined by the Administrator at the time of grant and set forth in the applicable option agreement, provided that no Stock Option shall become vested earlier than the first anniversary of the date of grant of such Stock Option; and provided, further, that the Participant shall have continuously remained in the active employment of the Company or an Affiliate until the applicable vesting date.

Vesting. The Restricted Shares shall vest and be released from escrow to the Grantee under this Agreement in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in Section 2.1 and the other conditions precedent to the release from escrow of the eligible Restricted Shares.

Vesting. Subject to this Section 2 and Section 7, if the Grantee remains employed by the Company, the RSUs shall vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth above, if the RSUs vest upon the passage of time, or the schedule attached hereto as [Schedule A], if applicable, if the RSUs vest upon the fulfillment of performance criteria set forth herein. Each date on which the RSUs vest, either by the specified passage of time or fulfillment of the performance criteria in accordance with [Schedule A], if applicable, is hereinafter referred to as a “Vesting Date”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Vesting Date can be any earlier than the day immediately after the day which is twelve (12) months and thirty (30) days following the Date of Grant (the period from the Date of Grant until the day which is twelve (12) months and thirty (30) days following the Date of Grant being hereinafter referred to as the “Initial Restriction Period”). Except as otherwise provided herein, on the Vesting Date, a number of Shares equal to the number of vested RSUs shall be issued to the Grantee free and clear of all restrictions imposed by this Agreement (except those imposed by [Sections 3.3 and 7] below). As soon as practicable (and no later than thirty (30) days) after the Vesting Date, the Company shall transfer such Shares to an unrestricted account in the name of the Grantee (or, if the Grantee has died, to his or her surviving spouse or, if none, to the Grantee’s estate). For purposes of this Agreement, employment with a Subsidiary of the Company or service as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company or a Subsidiary shall be considered employment with the Company.
