The Executive shall be granted options ("Performance Options") to purchase an aggregate of 220,000 shares of Common Stock, subject to anti-dilution provisions relating to adjustments in the event that the Company, among other things, declares stock dividends, effects forward or reverse stock splits, at an exercise price of the fair market value of the date of the grant, and shall be exercisable for a period of four (4) years from the date of vesting unless sooner terminated, as described herein. The date of grant shall be the Effective Date of this Agreement. Up to one-half of these shares will be eligible for vesting on a quarterly basis and the rest annually, with the total grant allocated over a two-year period, starting with the quarter ended December 31, 2007. Vesting of the quarterly portion is subject to achievement of increased revenues over the prior quarter as well as positive and increased net cash flow per share (defined as cash provided by operating activities per the Company’s statement of cash flow, measured before changes in working capital components and not including investing or financing activities) for that quarter. Vesting of the annual portion is subject to meeting the above cash flow requirements on a year-over-year basis, plus a revenue growth rate of at least 30% for the fiscal year over the prior year, starting with the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008. In the event of quarter to quarter decreases in revenues and or cash flow, the Performance Options shall not vest for that quarter but the unvested quarterly Performance Options shall be added to the available Performance Options for the year, vested subject to achievement of the applicable annual goal. In the event this Agreement is not renewed or the Executive is terminated other than for Cause, the Executive shall be entitled to register the stock underlying the vested portion of the Performance Options provided hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth in a registration rights agreement to be mutually agreed upon by and between Executive and the Company. The Company shall file such Registration Statement as promptly as practicable and at its sole expense. The Company will use its reasonable best efforts through its officers, directors, auditors and counsel in all matters necessary or advisable to file and cause to become effective such Registration Statement as promptly as practicable. Company and Executive agree that this bonus program will continue after the initial two-year period, through the end of the Term, with the specific bonus parameters to be negotiated in good faith between the parties at least ninety (90) days before the expiration of the program then in place.
Equity-Based Awards For each calendar year during the Term, the Executive shall be eligible to participate in and receive equity-based awards under the Company’s 2014 Stock Incentive Plan, and any and all successor or replacement plans as may be determined by the Board or the Committee (collectively, “Incentive Plan”).
RSU Award An RSU Award shall be similar in nature to a Restricted Stock Award except that no shares of Stock are actually transferred to the Holder until a later date specified in the applicable Award Agreement. Each RSU shall have a value equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock.
Performance-Based Compensation During the Period of Employment and assuming Executive remains continuously employed by the Company through the end of the relevant fiscal year, Executive shall also be entitled to participate in an annual performance-based cash bonus program as set forth in Exhibit B.
Performance Stock Units The Company may grant to Executive performance stock units (“PSUs”) pursuant to the Incentive Plan. All PSUs are subject to and conditioned on approval of the grant and its terms by the Board. All granted PSUs shall vest as provided in the applicable PSU grant notice and grant agreement (“PSU Agreement”). All PSUs shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Incentive Plan and a PSU Agreement in a form prescribed by the Company, which Executive must sign as a condition to receiving the PSUs.
Dividend Equivalent Units On the date that the Company pays a cash dividend to holders of Stock generally, the Participant shall be credited with a number of additional whole Dividend Equivalent Units determined by dividing (a) the product of (i) the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Stock on such date and (ii) the total number of Restricted Stock Units and Dividend Equivalent Units previously credited to the Participant pursuant to the Award and which have not been settled or forfeited pursuant to the Company Reacquisition Right (as defined below) as of such date, by (b) the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on such date. Any resulting fractional Dividend Equivalent Unit shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. Such additional Dividend Equivalent Units shall be subject to the same terms and conditions and shall be settled or forfeited in the same manner and at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units originally subject to the Award with respect to which they have been credited.
Dividend Equivalent Rights In the event that the Company declares and pays a dividend in respect of its outstanding shares of Stock and, on the record date for such dividend, you hold Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Agreement that have not been settled, the Company shall create a bookkeeping account that will track, (a) to the extent the dividend paid to stockholders generally was a cash dividend, the cash value you would have been entitled to receive as if you had been the holder of record of the number of shares of Stock related to the Restricted Stock Units that have not been settled as of the record date, or (b) to the extent the dividend paid to stockholders generally was paid in the form of property, the property you would have been entitled to receive as if you had been the holder of record of the number of shares of Stock related to the Restricted Stock Units that have not been settled as of the record date. All DER amounts credited to your bookkeeping account pursuant to this Section 3, if any, shall be deemed converted into shares of Stock on the date that the Restricted Stock Units vest (based on the Fair Market Value (as such term is defined in the Management Stockholder’s Agreement) of Stock on such date and rounded down to the nearest whole share of Stock) and paid to you in the form of additional shares of Stock on the date that the underlying Restricted Stock Units associated with such DER amounts are settled pursuant to Section 5 below. In the event that the Restricted Stock Units are forfeited to the Company without settlement to you, you will also forfeit any associated DER amounts. No interest will be payable with respect to DER amounts credited to your bookkeeping account, if any, that represent cash dividends. Property, if any, deemed credited to DER bookkeeping accounts representing dividends paid in property will be deemed invested in such property until the DER amounts are deemed converted to shares of Stock pursuant to this Section 3. The bookkeeping accounts, if any, created to track DER amounts are phantom accounts and the Company is under no obligation to set aside cash or property with respect to any DER amounts. Valuations made pursuant to this Section 3 (including any valuation of property deemed credited to a bookkeeping account) will be made by the Committee, or its designee, in its sole discretion and such valuation will be final and binding.
Performance Share Units The Committee may, in its discretion, grant to Executive performance share units subject to performance vesting conditions (collectively, the “Performance Units”), which shall be subject to restrictions on their sale as set forth in the Plan and an associated Performance Unit Grant Letter.
