Option Plans There is no share option plan or similar plan to acquire any additional shares or units or other equity interests, as the case may be, of IEM or securities convertible or exercisable into or exchangeable for, or which otherwise confer on the holder thereof any right to acquire, any such additional shares or units or equity interests, as the case may be.
Option Agreements To the extent not expressly amended hereby, the Agreements remain in full force and effect.
Indemnity for Underlying Sales and Supplemental Agreements Vendor shall be solely responsible for any customer claims or any disputes arising out of TIPS Sales or any Supplemental Agreement as if sold in the open-market. The Parties agree that TIPS shall not be liable for any claims arising out of Vendor’s TIPS Sales or Supplemental Agreements, including but not limited to: allegations of product defect or insufficiency, allegations of service defect or insufficiency, allegations regarding delivery defect or insufficiency, allegations of fraud or misrepresentation, allegations regarding pricing or amounts owed for TIPS sales, and/or allegations regarding payment, over-payment, under-payment, or non-payment for TIPS Sales. Payment/Drafting, overpayment/over-drafting, under- payment/under-drafting, or non-payment for TIPS Sales between customer and Vendor and inspections, rejections, or acceptance of such purchases shall be the exclusive respective obligations of Vendor/Customer, and disputes shall be handled in accordance with the terms of the underlying Supplemental Agreement(s) entered into between Vendor and Customer. Vendor acknowledges that TIPS is not a dealer, subcontractor, agent, or reseller of Vendor’s goods and services and shall not be responsible for any claims arising out of alleged insufficiencies or defects in Vendor’s goods and services, should any arise.
No Other Agreements to Purchase No person other than the Buyer has any written or oral agreement or option or any right or privilege (whether by law, preemptive or contractual) capable of becoming an agreement or option for the purchase or acquisition from Seller of the Painting.
Amendments to Purchase Agreement The parties agree that the Purchase Agreement shall be amended, solely with respect to the Mortgage Loans, as follows:
Options (a) Except as provided in paragraph (b) below with respect to the Company's 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended (the "Company ESPP"), at the Effective Time, each then outstanding and unexercised option (the "Company Options") exercisable for shares of Company Stock shall become fully vested and exercisable (by virtue of their terms) and Purchaser shall cause each holder of a Company Option to receive, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, options exercisable for shares of Purchaser Stock ("Purchaser Replacement Options") having the same terms and conditions as the Company Options (including such terms and conditions as may be incorporated by reference into the agreements evidencing the Company Options pursuant to the plans or arrangements pursuant to which such Company Options were granted) except that the exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon exercise shall be divided and multiplied, respectively, by the Conversion Fraction, and rounded to the nearest whole cent or number, respectively. Purchaser shall use all reasonable efforts to ensure that any Company Options that qualified as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") prior to the Effective Time continue to so qualify after the Effective Time. Purchaser shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for issuance a sufficient number of shares of Purchaser Stock for delivery upon the exercise of Purchaser Replacement Options after the Effective Time. Promptly after the Effective Time, Purchaser shall file or cause to be filed all registration statements on Form S-8 or other appropriate form as may be necessary in connection with the purchase and sale of Purchaser Stock contemplated by such Purchaser Replacement Options subsequent to the Effective Time, and shall maintain the effectiveness of such registration statements (and maintain the current status of the prospectus or prospectuses contained therein) for so long as any of the Purchaser Replacement Options registered thereunder remain outstanding. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, Purchaser shall qualify under applicable state securities laws the issuance of such shares of Purchaser Stock issuable upon exercise of Purchaser Replacement Options. Purchaser's Board of Directors shall take all actions necessary on the part of Purchaser to enable the acquisition of Purchaser Stock, Purchaser Replacement Options and subsequent transactions in Purchaser Stock after the Effective Time pursuant to Purchaser Replacement Options by persons subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act (as defined below) to be exempt from the application of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act, to the extent permitted thereunder. (b) The current offerings in process as of the date of this Agreement under the Company ESPP shall continue, and Company Shares shall be issued to participants thereunder on the next currently scheduled purchase dates thereunder occurring after the date hereof as provided under, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Company ESPP. The Company may, consistent with past practice, commence new offering periods under the Company ESPP on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time at an exercise price for each such offering not less than as is required under the Company ESPP. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, pursuant to the Company ESPP, all offerings under the Company ESPP shall be terminated, and each participant shall be deemed to have purchased immediately prior to the Effective Time, to the extent of payroll deductions accumulated by such participant as of such offering period end, the number of whole shares of Company Stock at a per share price determined pursuant to the provisions of the Company ESPP, and each participant shall receive a cash payment equal to the balance, if any, of such accumulated payroll deductions remaining after such purchase of such shares. As of the Effective Time, each participant shall receive, by virtue of the Merger, the number of whole shares of Purchaser Stock or cash into which the shares of Company Stock such participant has so purchased under the Company ESPP have been converted pursuant to the Merger as provided in Section 1.3(a) hereof, plus the cash value of any fraction of a share of Purchaser Common Stock as provided in Section 1.5(h) hereof, plus any dividends or distributions as provided in Section 1.
Stock Plan Each stock option granted under any stock option plan of the Company (each, a “Stock Plan”) was granted with a per share exercise price no less than the fair market value per Common Share on the grant date of such option, and no such grant involved any “back-dating,” “forward-dating” or similar practice with respect to the effective date of such grant; each such option (i) was granted in compliance with applicable law and with the applicable Stock Plan(s), (ii) was duly approved by the board of directors (or a duly authorized committee thereof) of the Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable, and (iii) has been properly accounted for in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosed, to the extent required, in the Company’s filings or submissions with the Commission and the Canadian Qualifying Authorities.
Relation to other International Agreements 1. The Parties affirm their existing rights and obligations with respect to each other under the WTO Agreement and any other agreements related to trade to which the Parties are party (1). 2. In the event of any inconsistency between this Agreement and any other agreement to which the Parties are party, the Parties shall immediately consult with each other with a view to finding a mutually satisfactory solution in accordance with rules of interpretation of public international law. 3. If any provision of the WTO Agreement that the Parties have been incorporated to this Agreement is amended and accepted by the Parties at the WTO, such amendment shall be deemed incorporated automatically to this Agreement. (1) The agreements mentioned in paragraph 1 shall include treaties, conventions, agreements, protocols, and memorandums of understanding entered into by the Parties or government agencies of the Parties.
Stock Plans (a) At the Effective Time, the Stock Plans (other than the ESPP) and each Option which is outstanding thereunder immediately prior to the Effective Time (whether or not then vested or exercisable) shall, subject to Schedule 5.8(a), be assumed by Parent. Each such Option so assumed by Parent under this Agreement shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Stock Plans and the stock option agreements, immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (i) such Option will be exercisable for that number of whole Parent Ordinary Shares equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Option Exchange Ratio and rounded down to the nearest whole number of Parent Ordinary Shares, and (ii) the per share exercise price for the Parent Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of such assumed Option will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Option Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Except as set forth in Section 5.8 of the Disclosure Schedule, neither the Merger nor the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will terminate any of the outstanding Options under the Stock Plans or accelerate the exercisability or vesting of such Options or the Parent Ordinary Shares which will be subject to those Options upon Parent’s assumption of the Options in the Merger. It is the intention of the parties that the Options so assumed by Parent hereunder qualify, to the maximum extent permissible, following the Effective Time as “incentive stock options” as defined in Section 422 of the Code to the extent such Options qualified as incentive stock options prior to the Effective Time. (b) For purposes of this Agreement, (i) “Option Exchange Ratio” shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the Merger Consideration by the Parent Fair Market Value, and (ii) “Parent Fair Market Value” means the average closing selling price per share of Parent Ordinary Shares as quoted on the London Stock Exchange for the ten (10) trading days preceding the Closing Date (as converted to U.S. Dollars at the Currency Exchange Rate as quoted in the New York edition of The Wall Street Journal on the Effective Date).
Incentive Plans During the Term of this Agreement, Executive shall be entitled to participate in all bonus, incentive compensation and performance based compensation plans, and other similar policies, practices, programs and arrangements of the Company, now in effect or as hereafter amended or established, on a basis that is commensurate with his position and no less favorable than those generally applicable or made available to other executives of the Company. 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:
