Annual Incentive Plan Executive shall be entitled to participate fully in the Company's 1996 Management Incentive Compensation Plan, as amended (the "MICP"), and as may be further amended, modified, or replaced, from time to time, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein and therein.
Termination of Option and Accelerated Vesting This Option will terminate upon the expiration date, except as set forth in the following provisions:
Exercisability Schedule No portion of this Stock Option may be exercised until such portion shall have become exercisable. Except as set forth below, and subject to the discretion of the Administrator (as defined in Section 2 of the Plan) to accelerate the exercisability schedule hereunder, this Stock Option shall be exercisable with respect to the following number of Option Shares on the dates indicated so long as the Optionee remains an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary on such dates: Incremental Number of Option Shares Exercisable* Exercisability Date _____________ (___%) ____________ _____________ (___%) ____________ _____________ (___%) ____________ _____________ (___%) ____________ _____________ (___%) ____________ * Max. of $100,000 per yr. Once exercisable, this Stock Option shall continue to be exercisable at any time or times prior to the close of business on the Expiration Date, subject to the provisions hereof and of the Plan.
Incentive Stock Option If this Option qualifies as an ISO, the Optionee will have no regular federal income tax liability upon its exercise, although the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the Exercised Shares on the date of exercise over their aggregate Exercise Price will be treated as an adjustment to alternative minimum taxable income for federal tax purposes and may subject the Optionee to alternative minimum tax in the year of exercise. In the event that the Optionee ceases to be an Employee but remains a Service Provider, any Incentive Stock Option of the Optionee that remains unexercised shall cease to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option and will be treated for tax purposes as a Nonstatutory Stock Option on the date three (3) months and one (1) day following such change of status.
Term-Out Option The Borrower may, upon notice to the Agent not later than the Termination Date, elect to convert all of the Loans outstanding on the Termination Date in effect at such time into “term loans” in which case the outstanding Loans shall not be due on the Termination Date and shall instead be due and payable on the first anniversary of the Termination Date, with the effect that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, all references in this Agreement and each other Loan Document to the Termination Date (other than as set forth in this Section 2.17) shall thereafter be deemed to refer to the date that is the first anniversary of the Termination Date; provided that (a) the Borrower shall have delivered an officer’s certificate dated as of the Termination Date certifying (x) that representations and warranties contained in Article IV are true and correct in all material respects on and as of such date (except where any such representation or warranty is otherwise qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects and except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date), (b) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (c) the Borrower shall have paid to the Agent for the account of the Banks a fee in the amount equal to (x) 0.50% multiplied by (y) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Loans so converted. All Loans converted into “term loans” pursuant to this Section 2.17 shall continue to constitute Loans under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (i) except that the Borrower may not reborrow such Loans pursuant to Section 2.01 after all or any portion of such Loans shall have been prepaid pursuant to Section 2.10 and no new Loans may be borrowed on or after the Termination Date and (ii) the Borrower may prepay such Loans in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty in accordance with Section 2.10.
