Special Market Adjustments Sample Clauses

Special Market Adjustments a) A special market adjustment to a particular occupation may be warranted when, although job duties have remained consistent with the job evaluation, positions in a classification pose persistent and severe recruitment and retention problems, which shall be documented as part of the decision process preceding the adjustment. Any such market adjustment is a temporary adjustment to the pay ranges for a classification, which does not alter its job-evaluation ranking. b) A special market adjustment can be established for one or more classifications on the basis of a market study that indicates that such an adjustment is the appropriate solution for recruiting and retention issues. c) A special market adjustment will generally be expressed as a percentage increase in pay range and actual base pay assumptions for the classification. Special market adjustments automatically adjust the pay of individuals in the adjusted classifications by the same percentage as the range. d) A special market adjustment will be applied to all occupied positions in the classification, as well as to new hires, transfers and promotions into the classification for as long as the special market adjustment is applied. e) At such time as market studies indicate that the special adjustment is no longer required, the adjustment will be removed for new entrants into the classification. Individuals who have achieved a higher rate of base pay as a result of a special market adjustment to the classification will retain that rate of base pay, so long as they remain in the classification. f) An employee’s pay may exceed the maximum of the pay range to which the classification is assigned when a special market adjustment is applied. Once the special market adjustment has been removed, however, individuals whose pay rose above the range as a consequence of the adjustment will receive no further increases until they can be accomplished with the range of pay for the classification. g) A special market adjustment has significant and lasting consequences. A special market adjustment is not warranted solely on the basis that a preferred candidate requires a greater starting pay than can be otherwise offered.

  • Adjustment of Conversion Rate The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company if any of the following events occurs, except that the Company shall not make any adjustments to the Conversion Rate if Holders participate (other than in the case of (x) a share split or share combination or (y) a tender or exchange offer), at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock and solely as a result of holding the Notes, in any of the transactions described in this Section 9.04, without having to convert their Notes as if they held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate, multiplied by the Principal Amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder. (a) If the Company exclusively issues shares of the Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on shares of the Common Stock, or if the Company effects a share split or share combination, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula: where, CR0 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the open of business on the Effective Date of such share split or share combination, as applicable; CR1 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on such Record Date or immediately after the open of business on such Effective Date, as applicable; OS0 = the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on such Record Date or immediately prior to the open of business on such Effective Date, as applicable (before giving effect to any such dividend, distribution, split or combination); and OS1 = the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination. Any adjustment made under this Section 9.04(a) shall become effective immediately after the close of business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the open of business on the Effective Date for such share split or share combination, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 9.04(a) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. (b) If the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock any rights, options or warrants (other than pursuant to a stockholder rights plan) entitling them, for a period of not more than 45 calendar days after the announcement date of such distribution, to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such distribution, the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula: where, CR0 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Record Date for such distribution; CR1 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on such Record Date; OS0 = the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on such Record Date;

  • Performance Adjustment Rate Except as otherwise provided in sub-paragraph (e) of this paragraph 3, the Performance Adjustment Rate is 0.02% for each percentage point (the performance of the Portfolio and the Index each being calculated to the nearest .01%) that the Portfolio's investment performance for the performance period was better or worse than the record of the Index as then constituted. The maximum performance adjustment rate is 0.20%. For purposes of calculating the performance adjustment of the portfolio, the portfolio's investment performance will be based on the performance of the retail class. The performance period will commence with the first day of the first full month following the retail class's commencement of operations. During the first eleven months of the performance period for the retail class, there will be no performance adjustment. Starting with the twelfth month of the performance period, the performance adjustment will take effect. Following the twelfth month a new month will be added to the performance period until the performance period equals 36 months. Thereafter the performance period will consist of the current month plus the previous 35 months. The Portfolio's investment performance will be measured by comparing (i) the opening net asset value of one share of the retail class of the Portfolio on the first business day of the performance period with (ii) the closing net asset value of one share of the retail class of the Portfolio as of the last business day of such period. In computing the investment performance of the retail class of the Portfolio and the investment record of the Index, distributions of realized capital gains, the value of capital gains taxes per share paid or payable on undistributed realized long-term capital gains accumulated to the end of such period and dividends paid out of investment income on the part of the Portfolio, and all cash distributions of the securities included in the Index, will be treated as reinvested in accordance with Rule 205-1 or any other applicable rules under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as the same from time to time may be amended.
