Outstanding Options The option granted to Optionee under this Option Agreement shall in no event be exercised while there is outstanding any option previously granted to Optionee to purchase common shares of the Company at a price higher than the option price under the option herein granted to Optionee.
Grant; Type of Option The Company hereby grants to the Participant an option (the “Option”) to purchase the total number of shares of Common Stock of the Company, at the Exercise Price set forth above. The Option is being granted pursuant to the terms of the EndoChoice Holdings, Inc. 2015 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Option is intended to be a Nonqualified Stock Option and not an “incentive stock option” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code.
Type of Option The Option is intended to be a Nonqualified Stock Option. It is not intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time, or any successor provision thereto.
Interest Options From the date each Loan is made, based upon the election of Borrower, at such time and from time to time thereafter (as provided in Subsection 1.3 and subject to the conditions set forth in such Subsection and Subsection 1.2(G)), each such Loan shall accrue interest as follows:
Special Acceleration of Option (a) This option, to the extent outstanding at the time of a Corporate Transaction but not otherwise fully exercisable, shall automatically accelerate so that this option shall, immediately prior to the effective date of such Corporate Transaction, become exercisable for all of the Option Shares at the time subject to this option and may be exercised for any or all of those Option Shares as fully vested shares of Common Stock. No such acceleration of this option shall occur, however, if and to the extent: (i) this option is, in connection with the Corporate Transaction, to be assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or (ii) this option is to be replaced with a cash incentive program of the successor corporation which preserves the spread existing at the time of the Corporate Transaction on the Option Shares for which this option is not otherwise at that time exercisable (the excess of the Fair Market Value of those Option Shares over the aggregate Exercise Price payable for such shares) and provides for subsequent payout in accordance with the same option exercise/vesting schedule set forth in the Grant Notice.
Discount Option (a) The Transferor shall have the option to designate at any time a percentage, which may be a fixed percentage or a variable percentage based on a formula (the “Discount Percentage”), of the amount of Receivables arising in the Accounts on or after the date such designation becomes effective that would otherwise constitute Principal Receivables to be treated as Finance Charge Receivables (“Discount Option Receivables”). The Transferor shall also have the option of reducing or withdrawing the Discount Percentage, at any time and from time to time, on and after the date such designation becomes effective. The Transferor shall provide to the Servicer, the Trustee, any Series Enhancer and each Rating Agency thirty (30) days prior written notice of such designation (or reduction or withdrawal), and such designation (or reduction or withdrawal) shall become effective on the date designated therein only if (i) the Transferor shall have delivered to the Trustee and each Series Enhancer entitled thereto pursuant to the relevant Supplement an Officer’s Certificate of the Transferor stating that the Transferor reasonably believes that such designation (or reduction or withdrawal) will not, based on the facts known to such officer at the time of such certification, then cause a Pay Out Event or any event that, after the giving of notice or the lapse of time, would constitute a Pay Out Event to occur with respect to any Series, (ii) the Transferor shall have received written notice from each Rating Agency that such designation (or reduction or withdrawal) will not have a Ratings Effect and shall have delivered copies of each such written notice to the Servicer and the Trustee and (iii) in the case of a reduction or withdrawal, the Transferor shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of the Transferor to the effect that, in the reasonable belief of the Transferor, such reduction or withdrawal shall not have adverse regulatory or other accounting implications for the Transferor.
Payment of Option Price The purchase price of Common Stock upon exercise of this Option shall be paid in full to the Corporation at the time of the exercise of the Option in cash or by the surrender to the Corporation of shares of previously acquired Common Stock which shall have been held by the Participant for at least six (6) months and which shall be valued at Fair Market Value on the date the Option is exercised, or by a combination of cash and such Common Stock.
