Capitalized and defined terms used and not defined below will have the meaning set forth in the Plan.
1. | Award Grant, Vesting and Transfer |
(a) Payment of par value. Teradyne hereby grants to the recipient that number of shares of Teradyne common stock as is set forth on the Notice of Restricted Stock Grant attached hereto. When the underlying shares of Teradyne common stock are issued to the recipient, par value will be deemed paid by the recipient for each share by past services rendered by the recipient.
(b) This award vests yearly on the anniversary of the Effective Date. None of this grant will be vested on the Effective Date. 100% of the total grant will vest on the first anniversary of the Effective Date. The Teradyne Board of Directors shall have the right to accelerate the date that any installment of this award becomes vested.
(c) This award will not vest further after termination of employment or other business relationship except in limited certain circumstances. This award will not vest after the recipient’s employment or other business relationship ends, regardless of the reason, provided, however, that if the recipient’s employment or other business relationship with Teradyne or a Related Corporation ends on account of disability, that portion of this award which would have vested under the applicable rule stated in (b) above had the recipient’s employment or business relationship continued for 30 months following his or her termination of employment or business relationship on account of disability will vest.
Employment or another business relationship shall be considered as continuing uninterrupted during any bona fide leave of absence (such as those attributable to illness, military obligations or governmental service) provided that the period of such leave does not exceed 90 days or, in the case of an employee, if longer, any period during which the employee’s right to reemployment is guaranteed by statute. A bona fide leave of absence with the written approval of the Committee shall not be considered an interruption of employment or other business relationship, provided that such written approval contractually obligates the Company or any Related Corporation to continue the employment or other business relationship of the recipient after the approved period of absence.
(d) No rights as stockholder; Issuance. The recipient shall not have any right in, to or with respect to any shares which may be covered by this award (including but not limited to the right to vote or to receive dividends) until the award is settled by issuance of shares to the recipient. All vested shares issued in respect of this award will be transferred or issued to the recipient (or his or her estate, in the event of his or her death) promptly after the date they vest but in any event within 2 1/2 months following the calendar year in which they become vested (or any earlier date, after vesting, required to avoid characterization as non-qualified deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code).
