Unvested Common Shares Issued in Settlement of Performance Share Awards If the Executive terminates employment pursuant to Sections 6(b), 6(d) or 6(e)(i) after the Performance Share Vesting Date, the vesting of all Unvested Common Shares (as defined in the Performance Share Agreement) issued in settlement of the Performance Share Award shall be accelerated in full effective as of the date of such termination.
Payment of Awards The payment of the Award shall be made in shares of Common Stock. The payment of an Award shall be made within 70 days following the end of the Restricted Period.
Settlement of Restricted Stock Units 6.1 Subject to Section 9 hereof, promptly following the vesting date, and in any event no later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such vesting occurs, the Company shall (a) issue and deliver to the Grantee the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Vested Units; and (b) enter the Grantee’s name on the books of the Company as the shareholder of record with respect to the shares of Common Stock delivered to the Grantee.
Payment of Restricted Stock Units Payment of Restricted Stock Units that vest pursuant to this Section shall be made in Shares (or, if applicable, settlement in the same consideration paid to the stockholders of the Company pursuant to the Change in Control), as soon as practicable following the applicable vesting date. The Restricted Stock Units are intended to be exempt from application of Section 409A of the Code, and any ambiguities set forth herein shall be interpreted accordingly. However, to the extent that an exemption is not available and the Restricted Stock Units are “deferred compensation” subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, the following provisions shall apply and shall supersede anything to the contrary set forth herein and in the Plan to the extent required for the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. In a Change in Control or Corporate Transaction the Award must be assumed, continued or substituted by the Surviving Corporation or the Parent Corporation and any Shares scheduled to be issued upon an applicable scheduled Vest Date may not be earlier issued unless the Change in Control or Corporate Transaction is also a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company as described in Code Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(iv) and an exemption is available and elected under Treasury Regulation 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix)(B) or such earlier issuance of the Shares is otherwise permitted by Section 409A of the Code. The Company retains the right to provide for earlier issuance of Shares in settlement of the Restricted Stock Units to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code.
Shares Subject to Award The Award consists of 25,000 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock of the Company (“Stock”). The undersigned’s rights to the Shares are subject to the restrictions described in this Agreement and the Plan (which is incorporated herein by reference with the same effect as if set forth herein in full) in addition to such other restrictions, if any, as may be imposed by law.
Performance Awards With respect to any Performance Award, the length of any Performance Period, the Performance Goals to be achieved during the Performance Period, the other terms and conditions of such Award, and the measure of whether and to what degree such Performance Goals have been attained will be determined by the Board.
Limitation on Rights; No Right to Future Grants; Extraordinary Item of Compensation By accepting this Agreement and the grant of the Restricted Units contemplated hereunder, the Participant expressly acknowledges that (a) the Plan is discretionary in nature and may be suspended or terminated by the Corporation at any time; (b) the grant of Restricted Units is a one-time benefit that does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of restricted units, or benefits in lieu of restricted units; (c) all determinations with respect to future grants of restricted units, if any, including the grant date, the number of Shares granted and the restricted period, will be at the sole discretion of the Corporation; (d) the Participant’s participation in the Plan is voluntary; (e) the value of the Restricted Units is an extraordinary item of compensation that is outside the scope of the Participant’s employment contract, if any, and nothing can or must automatically be inferred from such employment contract or its consequences; (f) grants of restricted units are not part of normal or expected compensation for any purpose and are not to be used for calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments, and the Participant waives any claim on such basis; and (g) the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty. In addition, the Participant understands, acknowledges and agrees that the Participant will have no rights to compensation or damages related to restricted unit proceeds in consequence of the termination of the Participant’s employment for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of contract.
