Stock Option Tax Treatment Sample Clauses

Stock Option Tax Treatment. (a) To the extent that the Notice of Grant specifies that the Option is intended to be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option, the Option shall not be subject to tax treatment as an Incentive Stock Option. To the extent that the Notice of Grant specifies that the Option is intended to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option, the Option is intended to qualify to the greatest extent possible as an “incentive stock option” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, and shall be so construed; provided, however, that nothing in the Notice of Grant, this Agreement or the Plan shall be interpreted as a representation, guarantee or other undertaking on the part of the Company that the Option is or will be determined to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option. Moreover, the Code provides that Option shares do not qualify for incentive stock option treatment if and to the extent that (i) the aggregate Exercise Price for shares that could be purchased under the Option in the year the Option first became exercisable as to such shares, plus (ii) the aggregate exercise price for shares under any of the Participant’s other concurrently or previously granted incentive stock options that first became exercisable in that same calendar year, exceeds $100,000.

In such an event, the Participant shall be subject to the tax withholding provisions of Section 13 of the Plan for the portion of the Option that is not an Incentive Stock Option, and to all other Plan provisions that apply to Nonqualified Stock Options with respect to such portion of the Option. To the maximum extent possible, the portion of an Option intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option that expires upon a Termination of Service shall be the portion (if any) that does not so qualify, so as to preserve incentive stock option treatment for the Option to the greatest extent possible. Certain decisions, amendments and interpretations by the Committee of this Option may cause the Option to cease to qualify as an incentive stock option pursuant to the Code and by accepting this Option the Participant agrees in advance to such disqualifying action.

  • Income Tax Treatment Employee and the Company acknowledge that it is the intention of the Company to deduct all amounts paid under Section 2 hereof as ordinary and necessary business expenses for income tax purposes. Employee agrees and represents that he will treat all such amounts as required pursuant to all applicable tax laws and regulations, and should he fail to report such amounts as required, he will indemnify and hold the Company harmless from and against any and all taxes, penalties, interest, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' and accounting fees and costs, which are incurred by Company directly or indirectly as a result thereof.

  • Incentive Stock Option If this Option qualifies as an ISO, the Optionee will have no regular federal income tax liability upon its exercise, although the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the Exercised Shares on the date of exercise over their aggregate Exercise Price will be treated as an adjustment to alternative minimum taxable income for federal tax purposes and may subject the Optionee to alternative minimum tax in the year of exercise. In the event that the Optionee ceases to be an Employee but remains a Service Provider, any Incentive Stock Option of the Optionee that remains unexercised shall cease to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option and will be treated for tax purposes as a Nonstatutory Stock Option on the date three (3) months and one (1) day following such change of status.

  • Incentive Stock Options If the Shares are held for more than twelve (12) months after the date of the transfer of the Shares pursuant to the exercise of an ISO and are disposed of more than two (2) years after the Date of Grant, any gain realized on disposition of the Shares will be treated as long term capital gain for federal and California income tax purposes. If Shares purchased under an ISO are disposed of within the applicable one (1) year or two (2) year period, any gain realized on such disposition will be treated as compensation income (taxable at ordinary income rates) to the extent of the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price.

  • Federal Income Tax Treatment It is the intention of the Trust Depositor that the Trust be disregarded as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-3(b)(1)(ii) as in effect for periods after January 1, 1997. The Equity Certificate constitutes the sole equity interest in the Trust and must at all times be held by either the Trust Depositor or its transferee as sole Owner. The Trust Depositor agrees not to take any action inconsistent with such intended federal income tax treatment. Because for federal income tax purposes the Trust will be disregarded as a separate entity, Trust items of income, gain, loss and deduction for any month as determined for federal income tax purposes shall be allocated entirely to the Owner; provided, that this sentence shall not limit or otherwise affect the provisions of the Transaction Documents pertaining to distributions of Trust Assets or proceeds thereof to Persons other than the Trust Depositor.

For this purpose, “Good Reason” has the same meaning determined by Employee’s written employment agreement in effect on the Grant Date. In the event there is no such agreement or definition, then Good Reason means the initial existence of one or more of the following conditions, arising without the consent of the Employee: (1) a material diminution in Employee’s base compensation; (2) a material diminution in Employee’s authority, duties, or responsibilities, so as to effectively cause Employee to no longer be performing the duties of his position; (3) a material diminution in the authority, duties, or responsibilities of the supervisor to whom Employee is required to report.
