The Plan This Plan is the Fund's written distribution and service plan for Class N shares of the Fund (the "Shares"), contemplated by Rule 12b-1 as it may be amended from time to time (the "Rule") under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), pursuant to which the Fund will compensate the Distributor for its services in connection with the distribution of Shares, and the personal service and maintenance of shareholder accounts that hold Shares ("Accounts"). The Fund may act as distributor of securities of which it is the issuer, pursuant to the Rule, according to the terms of this Plan. The terms and provisions of this Plan shall be interpreted and defined in a manner consistent with the provisions and definitions contained in (i) the 1940 Act, (ii) the Rule, (iii) Rule 2830 of the Conduct Rules of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., or any applicable amendment or successor to such rule (the "NASD Conduct Rules") and (iv) any conditions pertaining either to distribution-related expenses or to a plan of distribution to which the Fund is subject under any order on which the Fund relies, issued at any time by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").
Restrictions on Grant of the Award and Issuance of Shares The grant of the Award and issuance of shares of Stock upon settlement of the Award shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state or foreign law with respect to such securities. No shares of Stock may be issued hereunder if the issuance of such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any shares subject to the Award shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the settlement of the Award, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
Grant of the Award Subject to the provisions of this Award Agreement and the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Participant, an aggregate of [# of Shares Granted] shares of restricted stock (the “Restricted Stock”), subject to adjustment as set forth in the Plan.
Restricted Stock Awards Each Encompass Restricted Stock Award that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be treated as follows: (i) If the holder is an Encompass Group Employee, such award shall be converted, as of the Effective Time, into a Post-Separation Encompass Restricted Stock Award, and shall, except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.02, be subject to the same terms and conditions (including with respect to vesting) after the Effective Time as were applicable to such Encompass Restricted Stock Award immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that from and after the Effective Time, the number of Encompass Shares subject to such Post-Separation Encompass Restricted Stock Award shall be equal to the sum of all the Encompass Shares subject to all tranches of the Award where the number of Encompass Shares subject to each tranche is equal to the product, rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares for each such tranche, obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Encompass Shares subject to such tranche of the corresponding Encompass Restricted Stock Award immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (B) the Encompass Ratio. (ii) If the holder is an Enhabit Group Employee, such award shall be converted, as of the Effective Time, into an Enhabit Restricted Stock Award, and shall, except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.02, be subject to the same terms and conditions (including with respect to vesting) after the Effective Time as were applicable to such Encompass Restricted Stock Award immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that from and after the Effective Time, the number of Enhabit Shares subject to such Enhabit Restricted Stock Award shall be equal to the sum of all the Enhabit Shares subject to all tranches of the Award where the number of Enhabit Shares subject to each tranche is equal to the product, rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares for each such tranche, obtained by multiplying (A) the number of Encompass Shares subject to such tranche of the corresponding Encompass Restricted Stock Award immediately prior to the Effective Time, by (B) the Enhabit Ratio.
Modifications to the Award Agreement This Award Agreement constitutes the entire understanding of the parties on the subjects covered. Participant expressly warrants that he or she is not accepting this Award Agreement in reliance on any promises, representations, or inducements other than those contained herein. Modifications to this Award Agreement or the Plan can be made only in an express written contract executed by a duly authorized officer of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or this Award Agreement, the Company reserves the right to revise this Award Agreement as it deems necessary or advisable, in its sole discretion and without the consent of Participant, to comply with Section 409A or to otherwise avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition under Section 409A in connection to this Award of Restricted Stock Units.
Stock Awards “Stock Awards” means all stock options, restricted stock and such other awards granted pursuant to the Company’s stock option and equity incentive award plans or agreements and any shares of stock issued upon exercise thereof.
Settlement of the Award Upon vesting, the RSU Award will be settled by delivery of one share of Stock as of the Vesting Date, for each RSU being settled. Such settlement shall occur promptly on or following the vesting of each RSU.
Amendment of this Award Agreement The Committee may waive any conditions or rights under, amend any terms of, or alter, suspend, discontinue, cancel or terminate this Award Agreement prospectively or retroactively; provided, however, that any such waiver, amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance, cancelation or termination that would materially and adversely impair your rights under this Award Agreement shall not to that extent be effective without your consent (it being understood, notwithstanding the foregoing proviso, that this Award Agreement and the Restricted Shares shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7(c) of the Plan).
Stock Rights In the event of a Change in Control, all restricted Company stock and all options, stock appreciation rights, and/or other stock rights held by Executive with respect to Company stock that are exempt from Section 409A (“Stock Rights”) which are not fully vested (and exercisable, if applicable) shall become fully vested and exercisable as of a time established by the Board, which shall be no later than a time preceding the Change in Control which allows Executive to exercise the Stock Rights and cause the stock acquired thereby to participate in the Change in Control transaction. If the Change in Control transaction is structured so that stock participating therein at one time is or may be treated differently from stock participating therein at a different time (e.g., a tender offer followed by a squeeze-out merger), the Board shall interpret this Subsection (d) to provide for the required vesting acceleration in a manner designed to allow Executive to exercise the Stock Rights and cause the stock acquired thereby to participate in the earliest portion of the Change in Control transaction. If the consummation of a Change in Control transaction is uncertain (e.g., a tender offer in which the tender of a minimum number of shares is a condition to closing, or a voted merger or proxy contest in which a minimum number of votes is a condition to closing), the Board shall apply this Subsection (d) by using its best efforts to determine if and when the Change in Control transaction is likely to close, and proceeding accordingly. To the extent necessary to implement this Subsection d), each agreement reflecting a Stock Right, and each plan, if any, pursuant to which a Stock Right is issued, if any, shall be deemed amended.
