Exercise of Stock Options If stock options granted in connection with a Stock Incentive Plan are exercised:
Stock Option Grants Executive will receive an annual grant of stock options during the term of this Agreement in a manner and under terms that are consistent with grants made to other executives of the Company.
Stock Options; Warrants (a) At the Effective Time and without any action on the part of the parties hereto, (i) the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan, the 1993 Incentive Stock Option, Nonqualified Stock Option and Restricted Stock Purchase Plan (together, the “Company Stock Plans”) and (ii) each unexercised and unexpired stock option that is then outstanding under the Company Stock Plans or any other plan or arrangement under which the Company or its subsidiaries grants stock options, whether or not exercisable and whether or not vested (the “Company Options”), shall be assumed by Parent and such Company Options shall be converted into options to purchase Parent Common Stock (individually an “Assumed Option” and collectively the “Assumed Options”). Each Assumed Option shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions as set forth in the applicable Company Stock Plan and any agreement evidencing the grant of such Assumed Option, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that, as of the Effective Time, (i) the Assumed Options shall be exercisable for whole shares of Parent Common Stock, and the number of such shares shall be equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Assumed Option, whether or not exercisable, immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock, (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Assumed Option shall be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such Assumed Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent, (iii) all references in the Company Stock Plan and the agreement evidencing the Assumed Option to the Company shall be deemed to be references to Parent and (iv) all references in the Company Stock Plan and the agreement evidencing the Company Option to Company Common Stock shall be deemed to be references to Parent Common Stock. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.2, the conversion of any Assumed Options (regardless of whether such options qualify as “incentive stock options” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) into options to purchase Parent Common Stock shall be made in such a manner as would not constitute a “modification” of such Assumed Options within the meaning of Section 424 of the Code.
Stock Options (a) Subsequent to the effectiveness of the Form 10, but prior to the consummation of the Distribution, and subject to the consummation of the Distribution, each option to purchase ALTISOURCE Common Stock (“ALTISOURCE Stock Options”) granted and outstanding under the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan of ALTISOURCE (“ALTISOURCE Option Plan”) shall remain granted and outstanding and shall not, and ALTISOURCE shall cause (to the maximum extent permitted under the ALTISOURCE Option Plan) the ALTISOURCE Stock Options not to, terminate, accelerate or otherwise vest as a result of the Distribution, and each holder thereof immediately prior to the Distribution will be entitled to the following, determined in a manner in accordance with, and subject to, the ALTISOURCE Option Plan, FAS123R and Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code: (i) an option to acquire a number of shares of Residential Class B Common Stock equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of ALTISOURCE Common Stock subject to the ALTISOURCE Stock Option held by such holder on the Distribution Date and (y) the distribution ratio of one (1) share of Residential Class B Common Stock for every three (3) shares of ALTISOURCE Common Stock (the “Residential Stock Options”), with an exercise price to be determined in a manner consistent with this Section 3.04 and (ii) the adjustment of the exercise price of such holder’s ALTISOURCE Stock Option, to be determined in a manner consistent with this Section 3.04 (the “Adjusted ALTISOURCE Stock Options”) (the Residential Stock Options and the Adjusted ALTISOURCE Stock Options, together, the “Post-Distribution Stock Options”).
Exercise of Stock Option (a) The Optionee may exercise this Option only in the following manner: from time to time on or prior to the Expiration Date of this Option, the Optionee may give written notice to the Board of Directors or its authorized committee (the “Administrator”) of his or her election to purchase some or all of the vested Option Shares purchasable at the time of such notice. This notice shall specify the number of Option Shares to be purchased. Payment of the Stock Option purchase price for the Option Shares may be made by one or more of the following methods: (i) in cash, by certified or bank check or other instrument acceptable to the Administrator; (ii) in the form of shares of Stock that are not then subject to restrictions under any Company plan and that have been held by the Optionee for at least six months prior to the exercise date; or (iii) by the Optionee delivering to the Company a properly executed exercise notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the Company cash or a check payable and acceptable to the Administrator to pay the Stock Option purchase price, provided that in the event the Optionee chooses to pay the Stock Option purchase price as so provided in this subsection (iii), the Optionee and the broker shall comply with such procedures and enter into such agreements of indemnity and other agreements as the Administrator shall prescribe as a condition of such payment procedure. Payment instruments will be received subject to collection. The delivery of certificates representing the Option Shares will be contingent upon the Company’s receipt from the Optionee of full payment for the Option Shares, as set forth above and any agreement, statement or other evidence that the Administrator may require to satisfy itself that the issuance of Stock to be purchased pursuant to the exercise of Options under the Plan and any subsequent resale of the shares of Stock will be in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Exercise of Nonstatutory Stock Option There may be a regular ------------------------------------- federal income tax liability upon the exercise of a Nonstatutory Stock Option. The Optionee will be treated as having received compensation income (taxable at ordinary income tax rates) equal to the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price. If Optionee is an Employee or a former Employee, the Company will be required to withhold from Optionee's compensation or collect from Optionee and pay to the applicable taxing authorities an amount in cash equal to a percentage of this compensation income at the time of exercise, and may refuse to honor the exercise and refuse to deliver Shares if such withholding amounts are not delivered at the time of exercise.
Acceleration of Stock Options The Company shall accelerate and make immediately exercisable any and all unmatured stock options (whether or not such stock options are otherwise exercisable) which Executive then holds to acquire securities from the Company; provided, however, that Executive shall have ninety (90) days after such termination of employment to exercise any outstanding stock options and after such ninety (90) days any and all unexpired stock options shall lapse; and, provided, further, however, any tax benefit provisions with respect to any stock options shall apply to any and all unmatured stock options (whether or not such stock options are otherwise exercisable). If as a result of such acceleration of incentive stock options the $100,000 limitation would be exceeded with respect to an optionee, such incentive stock options shall be converted, as of the date such incentive stock options become exercisable, to non-qualified stock options to the extent necessary to comply with the $100,000 limitation and the Company shall pay to such optionee an additional cash payment equal to the tax benefit to be received by the Company attributable to its federal income tax deduction resulting from the exercise of such converted non-qualified stock options.
Stock Options and Warrants At the Effective Time of the Merger, each outstanding option to purchase Company Common Stock (each, a "Company Stock Option"), whether or not granted under the Company Option Plan, and all outstanding warrants to purchase Company Common Stock the outstanding whether or not vested, shall by virtue of the Merger be assumed by Parent. Each Company Stock Option and Warrant so assumed by Parent under this Agreement will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions of such options immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger (including, without limitation, any repurchase rights or vesting provisions and provisions regarding the acceleration of vesting on certain transactions), except that (i) each Company Stock Option and Warrant will be exercisable (or will become exercisable in accordance with its terms) for that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of the number of Company Shares that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Stock Option or Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock if the said product is equal to or less than the fraction of one-half (.5) of one Parent Common Stock or rounded up to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock if the said product is greater than the fraction of one-half (.5) of one Parent Common Stock, and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed Company Stock Option and Warrant will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per Company Share at which such Company Stock Option and Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Parent shall comply with the terms of all such Company Stock Options and Warrants and use its best efforts to ensure, to the extent required by, and subject to the provisions of, the Company Option Plan and permitted under the Code or other relevant laws and regulations that any Company Stock Option that qualified for tax treatment under Section 424(b) of the Code prior to the Effective Time of the Merger continue to so qualify after the Effective Time of the Merger. Parent shall take all corporate actions necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Parent Common Stock for delivery upon exercise of all Company Stock Options and Warrants on the terms set forth in this Section 2.03(b).
Grant of Stock Options This non-qualified Stock Option is granted under and pursuant to the Plan and is subject to each and all of the provisions thereof.
Stock Option Plans Each stock option granted by the Company under the Company’s stock option plan was granted (i) in accordance with the terms of the Company’s stock option plan and (ii) with an exercise price at least equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date such stock option would be considered granted under GAAP and applicable law. No stock option granted under the Company’s stock option plan has been backdated. The Company has not knowingly granted, and there is no and has been no Company policy or practice to knowingly grant, stock options prior to, or otherwise knowingly coordinate the grant of stock options with, the release or other public announcement of material information regarding the Company or its Subsidiaries or their financial results or prospects.
