2013 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN
Restricted Stock/ |
|
This grant is an award of Common Stock in the number of shares set forth on the cover sheet, at the purchase price set forth on the cover sheet, and subject to the vesting conditions described below (“Restricted Stock”). The purchase price is deemed paid by your prior services to the Company. To the extent not yet vested, your Restricted Stock may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. |
|
|
|
Vesting |
|
The Company will issue your Restricted Stock in your name as of the Xxxxx Date.
Your right to the Common Stock under this Restricted Stock Agreement vests as set forth in the Vesting Schedule shown on the cover sheet, provided you then continue in Service (each vesting date, a “Vesting Date”). |
|
|
|
Forfeiture of Unvested |
|
In the event that your Service terminates for any reason, you will forfeit to the Company all of the shares of Common Stock subject to this grant that have not yet vested or with respect to which all applicable restrictions and conditions have not lapsed. |
|
|
|
Issuance |
|
The issuance of the Common Stock under this grant shall be evidenced in such a manner as the Company, in its discretion, will deem appropriate, including, without limitation, book-entry, registration or issuance of one or more stock certificates, with any unvested Restricted Stock bearing a legend with the appropriate restrictions imposed by this Agreement. As your interest in the Common Stock vests as described above, the recordation of the number of shares of Restricted Stock attributable to you will be appropriately modified. To the extent certificates are issued with regard to unvested Common Stock, such certificates will be held in escrow with the Secretary of the Company while the Common Stock remains unvested. |
|
|
|
Withholding Taxes |
|
You agree, as a condition of this grant, that you will make acceptable arrangements to pay any withholding or other taxes that may be due as a result of the payment of dividends or the vesting of Common Stock acquired under this grant. In the event that the Company determines that any tax or withholding |
|
|
payment is required relating to the payment of dividends or the vesting of shares arising from this grant under applicable laws, the Company shall have the right to require such payments from you, or withhold such amounts from other payments due to you from the Company or any Subsidiary (including by repurchasing vested shares of Common Stock under this Agreement). Subject to the prior approval of the Company, which may be withheld by the Company, in its sole discretion, you may elect to satisfy this withholding obligation, in whole or in part, by causing the Company to withhold shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to you or by delivering to the Company shares of Common Stock. The shares of Common Stock so delivered or withheld must have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the withholding obligation and may not be subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting, or other similar requirements. |
|
|
|
Section 83(b) |
|
Under Section 83 of the Code, the difference between the purchase price paid for the shares of Common Stock and their fair market value on the date any forfeiture restrictions applicable to such shares lapse will be reportable as ordinary income at that time. For this purpose, “forfeiture restrictions” include the forfeiture as to unvested Common Stock described above. You may elect to be taxed at the time the shares are acquired, rather than when such shares cease to be subject to such forfeiture restrictions, by filing an election under Section 83(b) of the Code with the Internal Revenue Service within thirty (30) days after the Grant Date. You will have to make a tax payment to the extent the purchase price is less than the fair market value of the shares on the Grant Date. No tax payment will have to be made to the extent the purchase price is at least equal to the fair market value of the shares on the Grant Date. The form for making this election is attached as Exhibit A hereto. Failure to make this filing within the thirty (30) day period will result in the recognition of ordinary income by you (in the event the fair market value of the shares as of the vesting date exceeds the purchase price) as the forfeiture restrictions lapse.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IT IS YOUR SOLE RESPONSIBILITY, AND NOT THE COMPANY’S, TO FILE A TIMELY ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b), EVEN IF YOU REQUEST THE COMPANY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES TO MAKE THIS FILING ON YOUR BEHALF. YOU ARE RELYING SOLELY ON YOUR OWN ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE |
|
|
DECISION AS TO WHETHER OR NOT TO FILE ANY 83(b) ELECTION. |
|
|
|
Retention Rights |
|
This Agreement does not give you the right to be retained or employed by the Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) in any capacity. The Company (and any Subsidiary) reserve the right to terminate your Service at any time and for any reason. |
|
|
|
Shareholder Rights |
|
You have the right to vote the Restricted Stock and to receive any dividends declared or paid on such stock. You have the right to a cash payment of any dividends within 45 days of the Vesting Date of the stock on which dividends are declared or paid if such dividends are not reinvested in shares of Common Stock. Any distributions you receive as a result of any stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares or other similar transaction shall be deemed to be a part of the Restricted Stock and subject to the same conditions and restrictions applicable thereto. The Company may in its sole discretion require any dividends paid on the Restricted Stock to be reinvested in shares of Common Stock, which the Company may in its sole discretion deem to be a part of the shares of Restricted Stock and subject to the same conditions and restrictions applicable thereto. No adjustments are made for dividends or other rights if the applicable record date occurs before your stock certificate is issued. |
|
|
|
Forfeiture of Rights |
|
If you should take actions in competition with the Company, the Company shall have the right to cause a forfeiture of your unvested Restricted Stock, and with respect to those shares of Restricted Stock vesting during the period commencing twelve (12) months prior to your termination of Service with the Company due to taking actions in competition with the Company, the right to cause a forfeiture of those vested shares of Common Stock.
Unless otherwise specified in an employment or other agreement between the Company and you, you take actions in competition with the Company if you directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, join or control, or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or are a proprietor, director, officer, stockholder, member, partner or an employee or agent of, or a consultant to any business, firm, corporation, partnership or other entity which competes with any business in which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is engaged during your employment or other relationship with the Company or its Subsidiaries or at the time of your termination of Service. |
|
|
If it is ever determined by the Board of Directors that your actions have constituted wrongdoing that contributed to any material misstatement or omission from any report or statement filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, gross misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty to the Company, or fraud, then the Restricted Stock shall be immediately forfeited; provided, however, that if the Restricted Stock has vested within two years prior to the Board of Directors determination, you shall be required to pay to the Company an amount equal to the aggregate value of the shares acquired upon such vesting at the date of the Board of Directors’ determination. |
|
|
|
Adjustments |
|
In the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination or reclassification of shares, spin-off, or other similar change in capitalization or event, the number of shares covered by this grant shall be adjusted pursuant to the Plan. Your Restricted Stock shall be subject to the terms of the agreement of merger, liquidation or reorganization in the event the Company is subject to such corporate activity in accordance with the terms of the Plan. |
|
|
