Stock Options With respect to the stock options (the “Stock Options”) granted pursuant to the stock-based compensation plans of the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Company Stock Plans”), (i) each Stock Option intended to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code so qualifies, (ii) each grant of a Stock Option was duly authorized no later than the date on which the grant of such Stock Option was by its terms to be effective (the “Grant Date”) by all necessary corporate action, including, as applicable, approval by the board of directors of the Company (or a duly constituted and authorized committee thereof) and any required stockholder approval by the necessary number of votes or written consents, and the award agreement governing such grant (if any) was duly executed and delivered by each party thereto, (iii) each such grant was made in accordance with the terms of the Company Stock Plans, the Exchange Act and all other applicable laws and regulatory rules or requirements, including the rules of the New York Stock Exchange and any other exchange on which Company securities are traded, and (iv) each such grant was properly accounted for in accordance with GAAP in the financial statements (including the related notes) of the Company and disclosed in the Company’s filings with the Commission in accordance with the Exchange Act and all other applicable laws. The Company has not knowingly granted, and there is no and has been no policy or practice of the Company of granting, Stock Options prior to, or otherwise coordinating the grant of Stock Options with, the release or other public announcement of material information regarding the Company or its subsidiaries or their results of operations or prospects.
Stock Options; Restricted Stock The foregoing benefits are intended to be in addition to the value of any options to acquire Common Stock of the Company, the exercisability of which is accelerated pursuant to the terms of any stock option agreement, any restricted stock the vesting of which is accelerated pursuant to the terms of the restricted stock agreement, and any other incentive or similar plan heretofore or hereafter adopted by the Company.
Option Granted In consideration of the payment of RMB10 by Party A, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged by Party B, Party B hereby irrevocably grants Party A an irrevocable and exclusive right to purchase, or designate one or more persons (each, a “Designee”) to purchase the equity interests in Party C then held by Party B once or at multiple times at any time in part or in whole at Party A’s sole and absolute discretion to the extent permitted by Chinese laws and at the price described in Section 1.3 herein (such right being the “Equity Interest Purchase Option”). Except for Party A and the Designee(s), no other person shall be entitled to the Equity Interest Purchase Option or other rights with respect to the equity interests of Party B. Party C hereby agrees to the grant by Party B of the Equity Interest Purchase Option to Party A. The term “person” as used herein shall refer to individuals, corporations, partnerships, partners, enterprises, trusts or non-corporate organizations.
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 and Restricted Stock Units The Executive acknowledges that as of the Resignation Date, the Executive was vested in Stock Options and Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) as reflected in the report attached as Exhibit A hereto. Except as specifically set forth herein, the Executive’s rights with respect to Stock Options and RSUs issued to him/her are governed by the Stock Option and Restricted Stock Unit Agreements entered into between the Executive and the Company, and the applicable Company equity incentive plan(s) and Notice(s) of Grant.
Awards (1) The tribunal, in its award, shall set out its findings of law and fact, together with the reasons therefore, and may, at the request of a Contracting Party, award the following forms of relief:
Stock Option Awards During the Term, the Executive shall be eligible for awards of options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Stock Options”), such Stock Options to be awarded in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee and in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Stock Option Plan, as such Stock Option Plan may be amended, suspended or terminated from time to time.
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.
Award Award shall be made on an all-or-none total estimated bid basis to the lowest responsive and responsible Bidder.
Stock Options and Restricted Stock Beginning with the 2001 Fiscal Year and in respect of each of the following Fiscal Years during the term of this Agreement, Employer's public company affiliate, IndyMac Bancorp, Inc., or any successor public company ("Public Company"), may grant to Officer stock options and/or restricted stock for such number of shares of the Public Company's common stock as the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Public Company ("Compensation Committee") in its sole discretion determines, taking into account Officer's and the Public Company's performance and the competitive practices then prevailing regarding the granting of stock options. Subject to the foregoing, it is anticipated that the number of shares in respect of each annual stock option and/or restricted stock grant shall be in accordance with the number of shares granted to officers of Employer at a level similar to Officer's level. The stock options and/or restricted stock described in this Section 4(d) in respect of a Fiscal Year shall be granted at the same time as the Public Company grants stock options and/or restricted stock to its other officers in respect of such Fiscal Year. Officer agrees that any stock options or restricted stock granted to him under his prior Employment Agreement(s), or granted separate from any such Employment Agreement(s), shall be subject to the terms of the 2000 Stock Option Plan except as may be expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement. All stock options and restricted stock granted in accordance with this Section 4(d): (i) shall be granted pursuant to the Public Company's current stock option plan, or such other stock option plan or plans as may be or come into effect during the term of this Agreement, (ii) shall be priced and vest in accordance with the terms set by the Compensation Committee, (iii) shall be subject to such other reasonable terms and conditions as may be determined by the Compensation Committee and set forth in the agreement or other document evidencing the award, (iv) in the event that Officer's employment is terminated due to death or Disability, shall, if then unvested, become immediately and fully vested, (v) in the event that Officer's employment is terminated through resignation or by Employer for either Cause (as defined in Section 5(c)) or Poor Performance (as defined in Section 5(d)), shall, if not then vested, immediately terminate, and (vi) in the event that Officer's employment is terminated by Employer other than for Cause (as defined in Section 5(e)), shall, if not then vested, become immediately and fully vested only to the extent that such restricted stock or stock options would, under the terms of such restricted stock or stock options, vest within one (1) year of such termination. All stock options granted in accordance with this Section 4(d) shall give Officer the right, upon termination of his employment hereunder, other than for Cause or Poor Performance (as defined in Section 5(e)), to exercise such options for a period of between 3 months and 12 months after such termination as provided hereinafter (but in no event later than their expiration date). In the event the vested options held by Officer immediately after such termination represent shares of common stock in an amount equal to or greater than 500,000, then the maximum period for the exercise of any options shall be 12 months. In the event the vested options held by Officer immediately after such termination represent shares of common stock in an amount equal to or greater than 100,000 but less than 500,000, then the maximum period for the exercise of any options shall be 6 months. In the event the vested options held by Officer immediately after such termination represent shares of common stock in an amount less than 100,000, then the maximum period for their exercise shall be 3 months. If the Board of Directors of Employer determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that Officer is exhibiting "Poor Performance," as described in Section 5(d), but there is not a resulting termination of Officer's employment, the Compensation Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, cancel any outstanding, but unvested stock options or restricted stock that were previously granted to Officer. In the event that a New Public Company is formed and Officer is assigned by the Chief Executive Officer to be employed by that New Public Company, if such New Public Company is traded on the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ, then, in the discretion of the Chief Executive Officer, up to 50% of the not-yet-vested stock options and restricted stock of Officer (whether previously granted hereunder or otherwise) may be terminated and replaced with such alternate incentive compensation (which may include stock options and/or restricted stock of the New Public Company) as the Chief Executive Officer may determine in his sole and absolute discretion, provided such replacement compensation is equivalent to the value of the replaced stock options and restricted stock. Such alternate incentive compensation may be granted on such terms and conditions as determined by the Chief Executive Officer, which terms and conditions may differ from those in this Agreement for comparable compensation, provided such terms and conditions provide an equivalent value to the replaced compensation. The Company shall select and retain a nationally recognized firm to determine the value of the stock options and restricted stock to be replaced and the value of the replacement compensation, and such firm's final valuation shall be accepted by both parties.
