Participation in Plans Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Executive shall have the right to participate in any and all of the plans or programs made available by the Company (or it subsidiaries, divisions or affiliates) to, or for the benefit of, executives (including the annual stock option and restricted stock grant programs) or employees in general, on a basis consistent with other senior executives.
Other Awards The grant of an Award shall not confer upon the Holder the right to receive any future or other Awards under the Plan, whether or not Awards may be granted to similarly situated Holders, or the right to receive future Awards upon the same terms or conditions as previously granted.
Incentive Awards a) The Executive shall participate in the Company's annual incentive plan for senior-level executives as in effect from time to time, subject to the performance standards set by the Compensation Committee. Payment of any annual incentive award shall be made at the same time that such awards are paid to other senior-level executives of the Company. The Executive's annual incentive award target shall be set by the Compensation Committee. b) The Executive shall be eligible to receive grants under the Company's long-term incentive plans as in effect from time to time; provided, however, that the size, type and other terms and conditions of any such grant to the Executive shall be determined by the Compensation Committee.
Annual Incentive Awards The Executive shall participate in the Company's annual incentive compensation plan with a target annual incentive award opportunity of no less than 40% of Base Salary and a maximum annual incentive award opportunity of 80% of Base Salary. Payment of annual incentive awards shall be made at the same time that other senior-level executives receive their incentive awards.
Equity-Based Awards (a) Except as set forth in Section 2.04(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter, the terms of each outstanding option to purchase shares of Company Stock under any equity compensation plan of the Company (a “Company Stock Option”), whether or not exercisable or vested, shall be adjusted as necessary to provide that, at the Effective Time, each Company Stock Option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into an option (each, an “Adjusted Option”) to acquire, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, the number of shares of Parent Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Stock subject to such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Per Share Consideration, with any fractional shares rounded down to the next lower whole number of shares. The exercise price per share of Parent Stock subject to any such Adjusted Option will be an amount (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient of (A) the exercise price per share of Company Stock subject to such Company Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by (B) the Per Share Consideration, with any fractional cents rounded up to the next higher number of whole cents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the conversion of a Company Stock Option in accordance with the preceding provisions of this Section 2.04(a) would cause the related Adjusted Option to be treated as the grant of new stock right for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, such Company Stock Option shall not be converted in accordance with the preceding provisions but shall instead be converted in a manner that would not cause the related Adjusted Option to be treated as the grant of new stock right for purposes of Section 409A. Except as set forth in Section 2.04(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter, no Company Stock Option shall be subject to accelerated vesting upon or in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. (b) Each restricted stock award or performance share award outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time under any equity compensation plan of the Company (each, a “Company Stock Award”) shall be adjusted as necessary to provide that, at the Effective Time, such Company Stock Award shall be converted into a restricted stock award or performance share award, as applicable, relating to the number of shares of Parent Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Stock relating to such Company Stock Award immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (ii) the Per Share Consideration, with any fractional shares rounded down to the next lower whole number of shares. Except as set forth in Section 2.04(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter, each converted Company Stock Award shall be subject to the same terms, conditions and restrictions as were applicable under such Company Stock Award immediately prior to the Effective Time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Company Stock Award vesting condition contingent on the achievement of specified Company stock targets (“Stock Vesting Targets”) shall be adjusted so that each Stock Vesting Target is equal to the quotient of: (A) the Stock Vesting Target divided by (B) the Per Share Consideration, with any fractional cents rounded up to the next higher number of whole cents. Except as set forth in Section 2.04(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter, no Company Stock Award shall be subject to accelerated vesting upon or in connection with the transactions contemplated herein. (c) Parent shall take such actions as are necessary for the assumption of the Company Stock Options pursuant to this Section 2.04, including the reservation, issuance and listing of Parent Stock as is necessary to effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.04. Parent shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on an appropriate form, or a post-effective amendment to a registration statement previously filed under the 1933 Act, with respect to the shares of Parent Stock subject to the Company Stock Options and, where applicable, shall use its reasonable best efforts to have such registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable following the Effective Time and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement covering such Company Stock Options (and to maintain the current status of the prospectus contained therein) for so long as any such Company Stock Options remain outstanding. With respect to those individuals, if any, who, subsequent to the Effective Time, will be subject to the reporting requirements under Section 16(a) of the 1934 Act, where applicable, Parent shall administer any equity compensation plan of the Company assumed pursuant to this Section 2.04 in a manner that complies with Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the 1934 Act to the extent such equity compensation plan of the Company complied with such rule prior to the Merger. (d) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall, with respect to stock option or compensation plans or arrangements, use its reasonable efforts to give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.04.
Stock-Based Awards The vesting of any stock-based compensation awards which constitute Section 409A Deferred Compensation and are held by the Executive, if the Executive is a Specified Employee, shall be accelerated in accordance with this Agreement to the extent applicable; provided, however, that the payment in settlement of any such awards shall occur on the Delayed Payment Date. Any stock based compensation which vests and becomes payable upon a Change in Control in accordance with Section 8(e)(i) shall not be subject to this Section 22(d).
Participation Rights (a) At least 30 days prior to any Transfer of Stockholder Shares which are shares of Preferred Stock by the GTCR Investors, the GTCR Investors shall deliver a written notice (the "PREFERRED SALE NOTICE") to the Company and the other Stockholders (the "NON-GTCR STOCKHOLDERS") specifying in reasonable detail the identity of the prospective transferee(s) and the terms and conditions of the Transfer. The Non-GTCR Stockholders may elect to participate in the contemplated Transfer by delivering written notice to the GTCR Investors within 30 days after delivery of the Preferred Sale Notice. If any Non-GTCR Stockholders have elected to participate in such Transfer, the GTCR Investors and such Non-GTCR Stockholders will be entitled to sell in the contemplated Transfer, at the same price and on the same terms, a number of shares of Preferred Stock equal to the product of (A) the quotient determined by dividing the number of shares of Preferred Stock owned by such Person by the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Preferred Stock owned by the GTCR Investors and the Non-GTCR Stockholders participating in such sale and (B) the number of shares of Preferred Stock to be sold in the contemplated Transfer. (b) At least 30 days prior to any Transfer of Stockholder Shares which are shares of Common Stock by the GTCR Investors, the Bajaj Group or the Xxxxxxxxxx Group (collectively, the "SUBJECT STOCKHOLDERS"), the Subject Stockholder proposing to make such Transfer shall deliver a written notice (the "COMMON SALE NOTICE") to the Company and the other Stockholders (collectively, the "NON-SUBJECT STOCKHOLDERS") specifying in reasonable detail the identity of the prospective transferee(s) and the terms and conditions of the Transfer. The Non-Subject Stockholders may elect to participate in the contemplated Transfer by delivering written notice to the Subject Stockholders within 30 days after delivery of the Common Sale Notice. If any Non-Subject Stockholders have elected to participate in such Transfer, the Subject Stockholders and such Non-Subject Stockholders will be entitled to sell in the contemplated Transfer, at the same price and on the same terms, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (i) the quotient determined by dividing the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Person by the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Common Stock owned by the Subject Stockholders and the Non-Subject Stockholders participating in such sale, and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock to be sold in the contemplated Transfer. For purposes of this SECTION 4(b), if a holder of shares of Class B Preferred elects to participate in the contemplated Transfer, (x) the "number of shares of Common Stock owned" by such holder shall equal the quotient determined by dividing (1) the aggregate liquidation value of the shares of Class B Preferred then owned by such holder (plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon), by (2) 81.667% of the consideration per share of Common Stock to be paid to the Subject Stockholders by the prospective transferee(s) in the contemplated Transfer, and (y) "the aggregate number of outstanding shares of Common Stock" shall include the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such holder as calculated pursuant to clause (x) above. (i) The GTCR Investors will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the agreement of the prospective transferee(s) to the participation of the Non-GTCR Stockholders in any Transfer contemplated by Section 4(a), and the GTCR Investors will not transfer any of their Stockholder Shares to the prospective transferee(s) unless (A) the prospective transferee(s) agrees to allow the participation of the Non-GTCR Stockholders at the same price and on the same terms, or (B) the GTCR Investors agree to purchase the number of such class of Stockholder Shares from the Non-GTCR Stockholders which the Non-GTCR Stockholders would have been entitled to sell pursuant to SECTION 4(a) for the consideration per share to be paid to the GTCR Investors by the prospective transferee(s). (ii) The Subject Stockholders will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the agreement of the prospective transferee(s) to the participation of the Non-Subject Stockholders in any Transfer contemplated by Section 4(b), and the Subject Stockholders will not transfer any of their Stockholder Shares to the prospective transferee(s) unless (A) the prospective transferee(s) agrees to allow the participation of the Non-Subject Stockholders at the same price and on the same terms, or (B) the Subject Stockholders agree to purchase the number of such class of Stockholder Shares from the Non-Subject Stockholders which the Non-Subject Stockholders would have been entitled to sell pursuant to SECTION 4(b) for the consideration per share to be paid to the Subject Stockholders by the prospective transferee(s). (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other provision of this Agreement, this SECTION 4 shall not apply with respect to (i) any Transfer of Stockholder Shares by any GTCR Investor to or among its Affiliates, (ii) an Exempt Bajaj Transfer, (iii) an Exempt Xxxxxxxxxx Transfer, or (iv) a Public Sale; provided that the restrictions contained in this Agreement will continue to be applicable to the Stockholder Shares after any Transfer pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) and, as a condition to such Transfer, the transferee of such Stockholder Shares shall agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement. Upon the Transfer of Stockholder Shares pursuant to clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the previous sentence, the transferees will deliver a written notice to the Company, which notice will disclose in reasonable detail the identity of such transferee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party hereto shall avoid the provisions of this Agreement by making one or more Transfers to one or more Affiliates and then disposing of all or any portion of such party's interest in any such Affiliate. (e) This Section 4 will terminate upon the first to occur of (i) the consummation of an Approved Sale and (ii) the consummation of a Qualified Public Offering.
Incentive Bonuses After the Company attains profitability, the Employee shall be eligible to be considered for an annual incentive bonus. Such bonus (if any) shall be awarded based on objective or subjective criteria established in advance by the Board or its Compensation Committee. The determinations of the Board or its Compensation Committee with respect to such bonus shall be final and binding. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Employee shall not be entitled to an incentive bonus if he is not employed by the Company on the date when such bonus is payable.
Annual Equity Awards Following the first anniversary of the Effective Date, Executive will be granted annual equity awards in an amount determined by the Board. Such awards may be in the form of options, restricted stock units, performance shares, or any other form as approved by the Board.
Stock Appreciation Rights The Grantee or other person entitled to exercise this Option is further hereby granted the right ("Stock Appreciation Right") in lieu of exercising this Option or any portion thereof to receive an amount equal to the lesser of (a) the excess of the Fair Market Value of the stock subject to this Option or such portion thereof over the aggregate exercise price for such shares hereunder as of the date the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised, or (b) 200% of the aggregate exercise price for such shares hereunder. The amount payable upon exercise of such Stock Appreciation Right may be settled by payment in cash or in shares of the class then subject to this Option valued on the basis of their Fair Market Value on the date Stock Appreciation Right is exercised, or in a combination of cash and such shares so valued. No Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised, in whole or in part, (i) other than in connection with the contemporaneous surrender without exercise of this Option or the portion thereof that corresponds to the portion of the Stock Appreciation Right being exercised, or (ii) except to the extent that this Option or such portion thereof is exercisable on the date of exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right by the Person exercising the Stock Appreciation Right, or (iii) unless the class of stock then subject to this Option is then Publicly Traded.
