  • Stock Options and Restricted Stock Beginning with the 2001 Fiscal Year and in respect of each of the following Fiscal Years during the term of this Agreement, Employer's public company affiliate, IndyMac Bancorp, Inc., or any successor public company ("Public Company"), may grant to Officer stock options and/or restricted stock for such number of shares of the Public Company's common stock as the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Public Company ("Compensation Committee") in its sole discretion determines, taking into account Officer's and the Public Company's performance and the competitive practices then prevailing regarding the granting of stock options. Subject to the foregoing, it is anticipated that the number of shares in respect of each annual stock option and/or restricted stock grant shall be in accordance with the number of shares granted to officers of Employer at a level similar to Officer's level. The stock options and/or restricted stock described in this Section 4(d) in respect of a Fiscal Year shall be granted at the same time as the Public Company grants stock options and/or restricted stock to its other officers in respect of such Fiscal Year. Officer agrees that any stock options or restricted stock granted to him under his prior Employment Agreement(s), or granted separate from any such Employment Agreement(s), shall be subject to the terms of the 2000 Stock Option Plan except as may be expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement. All stock options and restricted stock granted in accordance with this Section 4(d): (i) shall be granted pursuant to the Public Company's current stock option plan, or such other stock option plan or plans as may be or come into effect during the term of this Agreement, (ii) shall be priced and vest in accordance with the terms set by the Compensation Committee, (iii) shall be subject to such other reasonable terms and conditions as may be determined by the Compensation Committee and set forth in the agreement or other document evidencing the award, (iv) in the event that Officer's employment is terminated due to death or Disability, shall, if then unvested, become immediately and fully vested, (v) in the event that Officer's employment is terminated through resignation or by Employer for either Cause (as defined in Section 5(c)) or Poor Performance (as defined in Section 5(d)), shall, if not then vested, immediately terminate, and (vi) in the event that Officer's employment is terminated by Employer other than for Cause (as defined in Section 5(e)), shall, if not then vested, become immediately and fully vested only to the extent that such restricted stock or stock options would, under the terms of such restricted stock or stock options, vest within one (1) year of such termination. All stock options granted in accordance with this Section 4(d) shall give Officer the right, upon termination of his employment hereunder, other than for Cause or Poor Performance (as defined in Section 5(e)), to exercise such options for a period of between 3 months and 12 months after such termination as provided hereinafter (but in no event later than their expiration date). In the event the vested options held by Officer immediately after such termination represent shares of common stock in an amount equal to or greater than 500,000, then the maximum period for the exercise of any options shall be 12 months. In the event the vested options held by Officer immediately after such termination represent shares of common stock in an amount equal to or greater than 100,000 but less than 500,000, then the maximum period for the exercise of any options shall be 6 months. In the event the vested options held by Officer immediately after such termination represent shares of common stock in an amount less than 100,000, then the maximum period for their exercise shall be 3 months. If the Board of Directors of Employer determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that Officer is exhibiting "Poor Performance," as described in Section 5(d), but there is not a resulting termination of Officer's employment, the Compensation Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, cancel any outstanding, but unvested stock options or restricted stock that were previously granted to Officer. In the event that a New Public Company is formed and Officer is assigned by the Chief Executive Officer to be employed by that New Public Company, if such New Public Company is traded on the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ, then, in the discretion of the Chief Executive Officer, up to 50% of the not-yet-vested stock options and restricted stock of Officer (whether previously granted hereunder or otherwise) may be terminated and replaced with such alternate incentive compensation (which may include stock options and/or restricted stock of the New Public Company) as the Chief Executive Officer may determine in his sole and absolute discretion, provided such replacement compensation is equivalent to the value of the replaced stock options and restricted stock. Such alternate incentive compensation may be granted on such terms and conditions as determined by the Chief Executive Officer, which terms and conditions may differ from those in this Agreement for comparable compensation, provided such terms and conditions provide an equivalent value to the replaced compensation. The Company shall select and retain a nationally recognized firm to determine the value of the stock options and restricted stock to be replaced and the value of the replacement compensation, and such firm's final valuation shall be accepted by both parties.

  • Share Option Plans Each share option granted by the Company under the Company’s share option plan was granted (i) in accordance with the terms of the Company’s share option plan and (ii) with an exercise price at least equal to the fair market value of the Ordinary Shares on the date such share option would be considered granted under GAAP and applicable law. No share option granted under the Company’s share option plan has been backdated. The Company has not knowingly granted, and there is no and has been no Company policy or practice to knowingly grant, share options prior to, or otherwise knowingly coordinate the grant of share options with, the release or other public announcement of material information regarding the Company or its Subsidiaries or their financial results or prospects.

The adjustment provided herein with respect to any ISOs shall be and is intended to be effected in a manner that is consistent with section 424(a) of the Code. The duration and other terms of the new option shall be the same as that of the original option, except that all references to Company shall be deemed to be references to Parent.
