The Executive's participation shall be in accordance with the terms and provisions of such plans and programs. Participation shall include, but not be limited to:
Equity Incentive Plan The Option is a Nonqualified Option and subject to each and every provision of the Equity Incentive Plan which are incorporated by reference herein, as well as the terms and provisions set forth in this Stock Option Agreement and Notice of Grant (this “Stock Option Agreement”). The Equity Incentive Plan shall govern and be conclusive as to all matters not expressly provided for in this Stock Option Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Stock Option Agreement and the Equity Incentive Plan, the terms of this Stock Option Agreement shall govern. All capitalized terms contained herein which are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Equity Incentive Plan. By accepting the Option you agree to be bound by the provisions of the Equity Incentive Plan and this Stock Option Agreement. A copy of the Equity Incentive Plan has been previously provided to you.
Stock Incentive Plans Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed or applied to preclude or restrain the General Partner from adopting, modifying or terminating stock incentive plans for the benefit of employees, directors or other business associates of the General Partner, the Partnership or any of their Affiliates or from issuing REIT Shares, Capital Shares or New Securities pursuant to any such plans. The General Partner may implement such plans and any actions taken under such plans (such as the grant or exercise of options to acquire REIT Shares, or the issuance of restricted REIT Shares), whether taken with respect to or by an employee or other service provider of the General Partner, the Partnership or its Subsidiaries, in a manner determined by the General Partner, which may be set forth in plan implementation guidelines that the General Partner may establish or amend from time to time. The Partners acknowledge and agree that, in the event that any such plan is adopted, modified or terminated by the General Partner, amendments to this Agreement may become necessary or advisable and that any approval or Consent to any such amendments requested by the General Partner shall be deemed granted by the Limited Partners. The Partnership is expressly authorized to issue Partnership Units (i) in accordance with the terms of any such stock incentive plans, or (ii) in an amount equal to the number of REIT Shares, Capital Shares or New Securities issued pursuant to any such stock incentive plans, without any further act, approval or vote of any Partner or any other Persons.
Equity Incentive Awards Executive shall be eligible to receive grants of equity-based long-term incentive awards, which may include options to purchase Company stock, performance or restricted stock units and Company restricted stock contributions to Company’s deferred compensation plan, or other equity-based awards. Such awards shall be determined in the discretion of the Board. In the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the Redwood Trust, Inc. Executive Deferred Compensation Plan) in which the surviving or acquiring corporation does not assume the Executive’s outstanding equity-related awards (including options and equity-based awards granted both before and after the Effective Date) or substitute similar equity-related awards, such equity-related awards shall immediately vest and become exercisable if the Executive’s service with the Company has not terminated before the effective date of the Change of Control; provided, however, that the foregoing provision shall only apply if the Company is not the surviving corporation or if shares of the Company’s common stock are converted into or exchanged for other securities or cash.
Incentive Bonus Plan Employee shall be eligible for a bonus opportunity of up to 65% of his annual base salary in accordance with the Company’s Incentive Bonus Plan as modified from time to time, payable in cash and/or equity of the Company (at the Company’s discretion). The bonus payment and the Company’s targeted performance shall be determined and approved by the Board or the compensation committee thereof.
Equity Incentive Compensation During the term of employment hereunder the Executive shall be eligible to participate, in an appropriate manner relative to other senior executives of the Parent and its subsidiaries, in any equity-based incentive compensation plan or program approved by the Board from time to time, including (but not by way of limitation) any plan providing for the granting of (a) options to purchase stock of the Parent, (b) restricted stock of the Parent or (c) similar equity-based units or interests.
Incentive Programs During the Term of Employment, the ------------------ Executive shall be entitled to participate in any annual and long-term incentive programs adopted by the Company and which cover employees in positions comparable to that of the Executive.
Incentive Compensation Plans The occurrence of any of the following: (i) a material reduction by the Corporation in the Executive’s (A) annual incentive compensation target or maximum opportunity, or (B) long-term incentive compensation target or maximum opportunity (measured based on grant date fair value of any equity-based awards), in each case, as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control, or (ii) a change in the performance conditions, vesting, or other material terms and conditions applicable to annual and/or long-term incentive compensation awards granted to Executive after the Change in Control which would have the effect of materially reducing the Executive’s aggregate potential incentive compensation from the level in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control; or
Compensation Plans Following any termination of the Executive's employment, the Company shall pay the Executive all unpaid amounts, if any, to which the Executive is entitled as of the Date of Termination under any compensation plan or program of the Company, at the time such payments are due.
