Exhibit 10.39
LIFE OF THE SOUTH CORPORATION
KEY EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTION PLAN (1995)
KEY EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTION PLAN (1995)
This Incentive Stock Option Agreement (the “Agreement”), is made and entered into as of this
28th day of February, 2001, by and between LIFE OF THE SOUTH CORPORATION, a corporation
organized under the laws of the State of Georgia (the “Corporation”), and W. XXXX XXXXXXX (the
“Employee”).
WITNESSETH:
| WHEREAS, the Corporation adopted the Life of the South Corporation Key Employee Stock Option Plan (1995) (the “Plan”) for the benefit of certain key employees of the Corporation, which Plan became effective on January 26, 1995 and was approved by the shareholders of the Corporation on April 27, 1995; and |
WHEREAS, the Corporation has adopted the Plan in a form that qualifies in pertinent part as
an Incentive Stock Option Plan, as provided in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the “Code”), and so that certain options granted under the Plan will constitute
“Incentive Stock Options” and will be afforded the favorable tax treatment allowed such options
under the Code; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Plan, the Employee has been selected as an Optionee under the Plan,
and the Corporation desires to grant to the Employee an option to purchase shares of the
Corporation’s Common Stock, 33 1/3 cents par value per share (“Common Stock”), on the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth;
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements and
covenants hereinafter set forth and other good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as
follows:
1. GRANT OF OPTION. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the
terms and conditions of the Plan, which are incorporated herein by reference, the Corporation
grants to the Employee on February 28, 2001 (“Grant Date”) the right and option to purchase 50,000
shares of Common Stock (this “Option”), exercisable in accordance with the provisions of paragraph
3. The option price and number of shares subject to this Option have been adjusted to reflect the
stock split which became effective April 27, 2000. This Option shall be an Incentive Stock Option.
Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the same meaning as
provided in the Plan.
2. TERM OF OPTION. Subject to earlier termination as provided in
paragraph 3 hereof, the term of this Option is ten (10) years from the date hereof. In no
event may this Option be exercised as to any shares covered hereby after 5:00 P.M. on
the date which immediately precedes the tenth anniversary of the date of this
Agreement.
3. OPTION PRICE, VESTING AND EXERCISE.
(a) Option Price. The purchase price of each share of Common Stock
subject to this Option shall be the Fair Market Value of each such share as of the
date of grant of this Option, which has been determined by the Board of Directors
to be $8.12.
(b) Vesting of Option.
(i) This Option shall vest, and may be exercised, with respect to the shares,
upon meeting certain performance criteria as provided in subsection (ii) below and
subject to earlier vesting or termination of the Option as provided in subsections
(e) and (f) below. The right to purchase the Shares as they become vested shall be
cumulative and shall continue during the exercise term unless sooner terminated as
provided herein.
(ii) The Option shall vest as indicated on the schedule below, to the extent
the Net Income Before Taxes (as defined on Schedule A attached hereto) of the
Corporation for the fiscal year most recently completed (the “Fiscal Year”) before
the Performance Vesting Date equals or exceeds the Net Income Before Taxes Targets
(each, a “Target”) for the Fiscal Year, as set forth in Schedule A attached hereto:
| Number of Shares | Performance Vesting Date | |
20% of total number of shares subject to the Option
|
1st anniversary of Grant Date | |
20% of total number of shares subject to the Option
|
2nd anniversary of Grant Date | |
20% of total number of shares subject to the Option
|
3rd anniversary of Grant Date | |
20% of total number of shares subject to the Option
|
4th anniversary of Grant Date | |
20% of total number of shares subject to the Option
|
5th anniversary of Grant Date |
Provided that, if the Net Income Before Taxes for the Fiscal Year is less than
or exceeds the Target for such year, the Option will vest and become exercisable
with respect to the Shares subject to the Option in an amount equal to the product
of (a) 20% of the total number of Shares subject to the Option multiplied by (b) the
Applicable Percentage set forth on Schedule A attached hereto (this additional
vesting shall not apply to the Cumulative Targets described below);
provided, further, that the
2
aggregate vesting of shares for all years cannot exceed 100% of the shares subject to this
Option.
If the Optionee’s Option does not become vested in any year pursuant to the above
performance vesting schedule, the Optionee may “catch-up” vesting if the Cumulative Net
Income Before Taxes Targets (“Cumulative Target”) for the Fiscal Year (as set forth in
Schedule A attached hereto) are satisfied. To the extent not previously vested, the amount
that would vest, if such Cumulative Target is met for the Fiscal Year indicated, equals
40% of the total number of shares subject to the Option on the second anniversary of the
Grant Date, 60% on the third anniversary of the Grant Date, 80% on the fourth anniversary
of the Grant Date, and 100% on the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date. After the fifth
anniversary of the Grant Date, all further performance vesting shall cease and the
Employee shall not be entitled to any further vesting under this subsection (ii).
(iii) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this section 3(b), this Option shall
become 100% vested and fully exercisable on the ninth (9th) anniversary of the
Grant Date, provided the Employee is actively employed by the Corporation on such date and
provided the Option has not been earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement.
(iv) If the aggregate Fair Market Value of Common Stock with respect to which Options
under the Plan and options under all stock option plans of the Corporation and its
subsidiaries are exercisable for the first time by the Employee (or person then entitled
to exercise this Option) during any calendar year exceeds $100,000, this Option shall be
an Incentive Stock Option (up to the $100,000 limit) and a Supplemental Stock Option for
the remaining shares. Any exercise of this option shall be deemed first to be the exercise
of Incentive Stock Options, with the excess treated as the exercise of Supplemental Stock
Options. For purposes of determining the $100,000 limit, the Fair Market Value of the
Common Stock shall be determined at the time the Options are granted. Further, no partial
exercise of this Option may be made for less than 100 shares or, if less than 100 shares
are still available for exercise under this Option, the number of such remaining shares.
For purposes of vesting and other rights under this Agreement, the Employee’s employment
by any Employer shall be considered employment hereunder.
(c) Manner of Exercise. The person then entitled to exercise this Option may do so by
delivering written notice of exercise to the Secretary of the Corporation, in person, or by mail,
postage prepaid, addressed to the attention of the Secretary of the Corporation at the location at
which the Corporation then maintains its principal office, and if so mailed, the date of mailing
will be considered the date of exercise. Such notice shall be in substantially the form
3
attached and shall be accompanied by payment in full of the total purchase price for the shares
being purchased. Such payment may be made in cash or, in whole or in part, by transfer and delivery
to the Corporation of shares of Common Stock already owned by the Employee, free and clear of any
liens, encumbrances or charges of any kind, valued at their Fair Market Value (as defined in the
Plan) on the date of such exercise. The Corporation, in the event of exercise by an authorized
person other than the Employee, may require proof of the right of such person to exercise this
Option. As promptly as practicable after receipt by the Corporation of the notice to purchase and
the full payment of the purchase price of the shares of Stock, the Corporation shall cause to be
issued to the person entitled to purchase the shares for which this Option is exercised, stock
certificate(s) for the number of shares of Common Stock being purchased, which shall evidence fully
paid and nonassessable shares.
(d) Person Who May Exercise Option. Except as the Corporation may
otherwise permit in its discretion, during the lifetime of the Employee, this Option
shall be exercisable only by the Employee, or if the Employee is disabled, by his
duly appointed guardian or legal representative. Upon his death, to the extent
that such Option is otherwise exercisable hereunder, this Option may be
exercised by the Employee’s legal representative or by a person who receives
the right to exercise this Option under the Employee’s will or by the applicable
laws of descent and distribution.
(e) Earlier Termination of Option. Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph
3(b), this Option shall, except as provided in (f) below, terminate upon the earliest to occur of:
(i) the expiration of the term of this Option as set forth in paragraph 2 hereof, (ii) the
expiration of three months after the Employee’s Retirement, (iii) the expiration of one year
after the Employee ceases to be an employee of the Corporation due to Total and Permanent
Disability, (iv) the expiration of two years after the Employee ceases to be an employee of the
Corporation due to the death of the Employee, or (v) the date that an Employee terminates
employment with the Corporation (whether by action of the Corporation or
voluntarily by the Employee) for any reason other than Retirement, Total and Permanent
Disability or death; provided that in the event any portion of the Option vests as a result of a
Corporate Transaction described in (f) below, the Option shall be exercisable until the expiration
of three months after the Employee’s termination of employment (or such later date as may apply
under (iii) or (iv) above.
(f) Earlier Vesting and Exercise of Option. The following special rule
shall apply to the vesting and exercise of this Option: if all or substantially all of
the stock or assets of the Corporation are sold to a third party, whether through
sale, merger, recapitalization or otherwise (hereinafter, a “Corporate
Transaction”), fifty percent (50%) of the Shares subject to this Option that are not
yet vested shall become vested and exercisable; provided, further, if as a result
of the Corporation Transaction the net proceeds to the shareholders of the
4
Corporation equals or exceeds $65 million, this Option shall become fully vested and
immediately exercisable; provided, further, if the net proceeds of the Corporate
Transaction are less than $65 million but as of such date the Targets described in Section
3(b)(ii) have been met for each year, then the Compensation Committee of the Board shall
have the right, in its sole discretion, to determine whether any additional vesting of
fifty percent (50%) of the unvested Shares under this Option shall occur. For purposes of
this Option, “net proceeds” means the net amount received by the shareholders in the
aggregate after all liabilities, expenses and costs have been paid which are required to be
paid or satisfied by the shareholders in connection with the Corporate Transaction. The
period during which this Option may be exercised after such an event shall be determined in
accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement.
4. REPURCHASE OF SHARES AFTER TERMINATION. Until a sale of the stock or assets of the
Corporation occurs as described in Section 3(f), if Employee ceases to perform services for the
Company other than as a result of Normal Retirement at or after age 65, which termination may be
with or without Cause or for any reason whatsoever (including death, Disability, or Retirement
prior to age 65), then the Company shall have the right in its sole discretion to purchase all of
the shares acquired by exercise of the Option no later than thirty (30) days after such termination
(or with respect to shares acquired upon exercise of the Option after termination, no later than
thirty (30) days after the date of such exercise). In the event of Employee’s death, this Section 4
shall be binding upon the Employee’s beneficiary or the representative or executor of Employee’s
estate.
(a) Termination Repurchase Price. The price the Company shall pay
for each Share in the event Employee’s performance of services for the
Company is terminated (the “Termination Repurchase Price”) will be an amount
of cash equal to the fair market value of a share determined by the Board of
Directors in the same manner and amount as if determining the Option Exercise
Price under the Plan, all determined as of the date of Employee’s termination of
performance of services, but not less than the exercise price paid.
(b) Form of Payment. The Termination Repurchase Price shall be
payable by delivery of the Company’s promissory note (the “Termination Note”)
evidencing the Company’s obligation to pay the Termination Repurchase Price
with interest accruing at a rate of seven per cent (7.0%) per annum. If the
Employee’s performance of services for the Company is terminated by the
Employee, then such payments shall be paid in thirty-six (36) equal monthly
installments commencing thirty (30) days after closing. If the Employee’s
performance of services for the Company is terminated by the Company, then
such payments shall be paid in twelve (12) equal monthly payments commencing
thirty (30) days after closing. The Company shall have the discretion to
accelerate any or all payments.
5
(c) Closing. At a time no later than thirty (30) days after the Employee’s
performance of services terminates as described above (or with respect to shares acquired
upon exercise of the Option after termination, at a time no later than thirty (30) days
after the Employee’s exercise of the Option), the Employee shall deliver a certificate or
certificates representing all of the shares, duly endorsed for transfer to the Company,
free and clear of all liens, security interests, pledges or other claims or charges.
Contemporaneously with the delivery of the certificates evidencing the Shares, the Company
shall deliver the Termination Note.
5. TRANSFERABILITY. This Agreement and any rights hereunder shall be
nontransferable and nonassignable by the Employee or by any other person entitled
hereunder to exercise any such rights; provided, however, that upon the death of the
Employee any rights granted hereunder shall be transferable, subject to the provisions
of subparagraph 3(d), by the Employee’s will or by the applicable laws of descent and
distribution.
6.
ADJUSTMENT OF SHARES. In the event of (i) any dividend payable in shares of Common
Stock, (ii) any recapitalization, reclassification, split-up,consolidation of, or other change in, the Common Stock, or (iii) an exchange of the then
outstanding shares of Common Stock, in connection with a merger, consolidation, or
other reorganization of the Corporation, or a sale by the Corporation of all or a portion of
its assets, for a different number or class of shares of stock or other securities of the
Corporation or for shares of the stock or other securities of any other corporation; then
the number and class of shares or other securities that shall be subject to this Option
and/or the purchase price per share which must be paid thereafter upon exercise of this
Option shall automatically be appropriately adjusted to reflect the event described in (i),
(ii), or (iii) above.
7. INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION. The Employee hereby represents, warrants and
agrees:
(a) That, unless a registration statement is effective at the time of
exercise, the shares that are purchased under this Agreement will be purchased
for his own account for investment purposes only and not with a view to resale or
distribution thereof;
(b) That he understands the offer of shares under this Agreement may
be made pursuant to a claim of exemption from the registration provisions of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) and any applicable state
securities laws, and that such claim may be based in part upon
the
representations contained herein;
6
(c) That the shares subject to this Agreement may be unregistered and,
if so, will be required to be held indefinitely, unless such shares are subsequently
registered or an exemption from registration is then available;
(d) That the Corporation is under no obligation to register such shares,
to comply with any such exemption or to supply the Employee with any
information necessary to enable him to make routine sales of such shares under
Rule 144 or any other rule or regulation of the Securities and Exchange
Commission; and
(e) That the transfer agent for the Corporation may be instructed not to
transfer ownership of the stock certificate(s) representing shares acquired upon
any exercise of this Option, unless in the prior written opinion of counsel
reasonably acceptable to the Corporation, such transfer is lawful under the Act
and applicable state securities laws.
In regard to the foregoing, the Employee understands and agrees that the
certificate(s) evidencing any shares that may be purchased pursuant to the exercise of this
Option which have not been registered under the Act or any applicable state securities law,
may bear an appropriate restrictive legend in a form determined in the sole discretion of
the Corporation.
8. LEGAL RESTRICTIONS. If in the opinion of legal counsel for the
Corporation the issuance or sale of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to the
exercise of this Option would not be lawful for any reason, including without limitation
the inability of the Corporation to obtain from any governmental authority or regulatory
body having jurisdiction the authority deemed by such counsel to be necessary to such
issuance or sale, the Corporation shall not be obligated to issue or sell any Common
Stock pursuant to the exercise of this Option to the Employee or any other authorized
person unless a registration statement that complies with the provisions of the Act in
respect of such shares is in effect at the time thereof, or other appropriate action has
been taken under and pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Act, or the
Corporation receives evidence satisfactory to such counsel that the issuance and sale
of such shares, in the absence of an effective registration statement or other
appropriate action, would not constitute a violation of the Act or any applicable state
securities law.
9. NO RIGHTS AS SHAREHOLDER OR TO EMPLOYMENT. Neither the
Employee nor any other person authorized to purchase Common Stock upon exercise
of this Option shall have any interest in or shareholder rights with respect to any shares
of Common Stock which are subject to this Option until such shares have been issued
and delivered to the Employee or any such person pursuant to the exercise of this
Option. Furthermore, neither this Agreement nor the Plan shall confer upon the
Employee any rights of employment with the Corporation or a Subsidiary, including
without limitation any right to continue in the employ of the Corporation or a Subsidiary,
7
or shall affect the right of the Corporation or a Subsidiary to terminate the employment of the
Employee at any time with or without cause.
10. WITHHOLDING TAXES. As a condition of exercise of this Option, the Corporation
may, in its sole discretion, withhold or require the Employee to pay or reimburse the Corporation
for any taxes which the Corporation determines are required to be withheld in connection with the
grant or any exercise of this Option.
11. HEIRS AND SUCCESSORS. This Agreement and all terms and conditions hereof shall be
binding upon the parties hereto, and their successors, heirs, legatees and legal representatives.
12. AMENDMENT. The Corporation hereby reserves the right to amend this Agreement,
except that no such amendment shall adversely affect the rights of the Employee hereunder without
his written consent.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation has caused this Agreement to be executed by its duly
authorized officers, and the Employee has executed this Agreement, all as of the date first above
written.
