Equity Award The Executive will be eligible to receive equity awards, if any, at such times and on such terms and conditions as the Board shall, in its sole discretion, determine.
Annual Equity Award With respect to each Company fiscal year commencing during the Term, the Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual equity compensation award (each such award, an “Annual Equity Award”). The form and terms and conditions of each Annual Equity Award shall be determined by the Board (or the Compensation Committee of the Board) in its discretion and shall be set forth in one or more written award agreements between the Company and the Executive.
Company Stock Plans (a) The Company shall take such action as shall be required:
Company Equity Awards With respect to any stock options, restricted stock or other equity awards (the “Equity Awards”) granted pursuant to any compensation plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries providing for the issuance of Equity Awards (the “Company Plans”), (A) each grant of an Equity Award was duly authorized no later than the date on which the grant of such Equity Award was by its terms to be effective by all necessary corporate action, and (B) each such grant was made in accordance with the terms of the Company Plans and all other applicable laws and regulatory rules or requirements.
Board and Stockholder Approval The Company represents that this Agreement has been approved by the Company’s board of directors and stockholders.
Annual Equity Grant During the first fiscal quarter of each year, or such other time as the Board, in its discretion, may determine, the Employee will receive an annual equity grant with a target value, measured as of the grant date, equal to the percentage of the Employee’s Salary determined by the Board or its designated committee, which for 2021 shall be 80% (the “Annual Equity Grant”). One-half of the Annual Equity Grant is expected to be in the form of restricted stock units or restricted share units with no performance restrictions or metrics associated with them, and which are expected to vest in three equal increments on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date. The other one-half of the Annual Equity Grant is expected to be in the form of performance shares or performance restricted stock units, which will have Board-determined performance restrictions and metrics associated with them. The determination of how many of those performance shares or performance restricted stock units have been earned will be made by the Board on or about the first anniversary of the grant date, based on the financial performance of the Company during the prior fiscal year, and any performance shares or performance stock units deemed by the Board to be earned are expected to vest in two equal increments on or about each of the second and third anniversaries of the grant date. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the determination of whether and when to make any Annual Equity Grant to Employee, and the design, nature and amount of any such Annual Equity Grant, shall be determined by the Board in its discretion. All Annual Equity Grants to Employee shall be subject to the terms of the grant agreement between Employer and Employee. In the event of a Change of Control, the Board or its designated committee will determine the manner in which any unvested restricted shares, performance shares, restricted stock units or other unvested equity grants will be treated, with respect to the amount and timing of the vesting of such unvested equity, to the extent that the same is not already addressed in the terms of the applicable grant agreement between the Employer and Employee.
Equity Awards You will be eligible to receive awards of stock options or other equity awards pursuant to any plans or arrangements the Company may have in effect from time to time. The Board or Committee, as applicable, will determine in its sole discretion whether you will be granted any such equity awards and the terms of any such award in accordance with the terms of any applicable plan or arrangement that may be in effect from time to time.
Vested Company Options No Vested Company Options shall be assumed or continued by Parent and the Company in connection with the Merger or the other transactions contemplated hereby. Each Vested Company Option outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and converted automatically into the right to receive at the Effective Time with respect to each share subject thereto, subject to the execution and delivery by such Company Option Holder of an option cancellation agreement (which shall include a release) in a form mutually acceptable to Parent and the Company (an “Option Cancellation Agreement”), an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the excess, if any, of the Per Share Common Consideration for each share of Company Common Stock issuable upon the exercise in full of such Company Option over the per share exercise price of such Vested Company Option (such excess amount being hereinafter referred to as the “Vested Company Option Cash Out Amount”), subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 1.6. Vested Company Options with a per share exercise price greater than or equal to the Per Share Common Consideration shall be cancelled without consideration. The payment of the Vested Company Option Cash Out Amount to any holder of Vested Company Options shall be paid at such time(s) provided in this Agreement to the Surviving Corporation for further payment to the holders of Employee Company Options through the Surviving Corporation’s payroll processing system net of applicable Tax withholding and deductions, and in respect of Non-Employee Company Options, shall be paid to the Payment Agent for further payment to the Non-Employee Company Option Holders. For purposes of calculating the aggregate amount of consideration payable in respect of each Vested Company Option pursuant to this Section 1.3(c), (x) all shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon the exercise in full of the Vested Company Options held by each holder of Vested Company Options shall be aggregated and (y) the amount of cash to be paid to each such holder of Vested Company Options shall be rounded down to the nearest whole cent.
Annual Equity Awards Following the first anniversary of the Effective Date, Executive will be granted annual equity awards in an amount determined by the Board. Such awards may be in the form of options, restricted stock units, performance shares, or any other form as approved by the Board.
