If you have time left from a previous control, it carries over into the next time control.

"The time control for the games is 100 minutes for the first 40 moves, 50 minutes for the next 20 moves and then 15 minutes for the rest of the game, plus an additional 30 seconds per move starting from move
one." -- Time controls pulled from the internets re: the candidate's tournament.
So... say I get 40 moves in in 1 minute? Then my timer changes from 99 mins to 149 mins. Can I then burn up 148 mins while making my next 20 moves? Or do I have to finish in 50 minutes with 20 moves? <scratching my head> I know I'm overthinking this.
