PARTICIPANT:
RECITALS
A. The Board has adopted the Plan for the purpose of retaining the services of selected Employees and consultants and other independent advisors who provide services to the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary).
B. Participant is to render valuable services to the Corporation (or a Parent or Subsidiary), and this Agreement is executed pursuant to, and is intended to carry out the purposes of, the Plan in connection with the Corporation’s issuance of shares of Common Stock to the Participant under the Stock Issuance Program.
C. All capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the meaning assigned to them in the attached Appendix A.
NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed as follows:
1. Grant of Restricted Stock Units. The Corporation hereby awards to the Participant, as of the Award Date, an award (the “Award”) of restricted stock units under the Plan. Each restricted stock unit represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock on the vesting date of that unit. The number of shares of Common Stock subject to the awarded restricted stock units, the applicable vesting schedule for the restricted stock units and the underlying shares, the dates on which those vested shares shall be issued to the Participant and the remaining terms and conditions governing the Award shall be as set forth in this Agreement.
AWARD SUMMARY
| Award Date: | Xxxxx 00, 0000 | |
| Xxxxxxxxxxx: | ______________________________ | |
| Number of Shares Subject to Award: | shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”) | |
| Vesting Schedule: | The Participant shall vest with respect to the Shares in a series of three (3) successive equal installments on the last day of each of the calendar years 2009, 2010 and 2011 (each a “Vesting Date”) provided the Participant remains in continuous Service through each such date and (except to the extent provided in Paragraph 4) the performance goals specified in Exhibit A for each such calendar year are satisfied as determined in the sole discretion of the Corporation’s Compensation Committee. The Shares may vest on an | |
| accelerated basis prior to these vesting dates in accordance with (and subject to the limitations of) the provisions of Paragraphs 3 and 4 of this Agreement. If the performance goals for any calendar year are not achieved, then the Award will be immediately terminated with respect to the Shares that would have otherwise vested on the last day of such calendar year and the number of restricted stock units will be reduced accordingly. In no event shall any Shares vest after the date of the Participant’s termination of Service. |
2. Limited Transferability. Prior to actual receipt of the Shares which vest hereunder, the Participant may not transfer any interest in the Award or the underlying Shares. Any Shares which vest hereunder but which otherwise remain unissued at the time of the Participant’s death may be transferred pursuant to the provisions of the Participant’s will or the laws of inheritance.
3. Cessation of Service.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 3(b), should the Participant cease Service for any reason prior to vesting in one or more Shares subject to this Award, then the Award will be immediately cancelled with respect to those unvested Shares, and the number of restricted stock units will be reduced accordingly. The Participant shall thereupon cease to have any right or entitlement to receive any Shares under those cancelled units.
(b) In the event that the Corporation terminates the Participant’s employment other than for Cause during the Term (as such terms are defined in the Executive Retention Agreement) or the Participant terminates his or her employment with the Corporation for Good Reason during the Term (as such terms are defined in the Executive Retention Agreement) while this Award is outstanding, then subject to the limitations of Section 9 of the Executive Retention Agreement, the Participant shall immediately vest in full with respect to all the restricted stock units subject to the Award at the time of such termination. The Shares subject to those vested units will be issued upon such vesting or as soon thereafter as administratively practicable but in no event later than sixty (60) days following such termination, subject to the satisfaction of the applicable Withholding Taxes pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 6.
4. Change in Control.
(a) Immediately prior to the closing of a Change in Control, the Participant shall vest with respect to the next immediate tranche of Shares in which the Participant would have vested had the Participant continued in Service until the next Vesting Date and the performance goals for such vesting had been satisfied. The Shares subject to those vested units will be issued immediately upon such vesting (or otherwise converted into the right to receive the same consideration per share of Common Stock payable to the other stockholders of the Corporation in consummation of that Change in Control), subject to the satisfaction of the applicable Withholding Taxes pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 6.
(b) Any restricted stock units subject to this Award at the time of the Change in Control may be assumed by the successor entity or otherwise continued in full force
2
and effect or may be replaced with a cash incentive program of the successor entity which preserves the Fair Market Value of any unvested shares of Common Stock subject to the Award at the time of the Change in Control and provides for subsequent payout of that value in accordance with the vesting schedule applicable to the Award. If the Award is so assumed by the successor entity or otherwise continued or replaced with a cash incentive program, then the Participant shall continue to vest in the remaining Shares subject to the Award in equal installments on each of the remaining Vesting Dates (or in full on the next Vesting Date if only one Vesting Date remains) following the Change in Control provided the Participant continues in Service through each such Vesting Date; provided, however, that the requirement to attain the performance goals specified in the Vesting Schedule above for each Vesting Date shall not be applicable for any period following the Change in Control.
(c) In the event the Award is assumed or otherwise continued in effect, the restricted stock units subject to the Award will be adjusted immediately after the consummation of the Change in Control so as to apply to the number and class of securities into which the Shares subject to those units immediately prior to the Change in Control would have been converted in consummation of that Change in Control had those Shares actually been issued and outstanding at that time. To the extent the actual holders of the outstanding Common Stock receive cash consideration for their Common Stock in consummation of the Change in Control, the successor corporation may, in connection with the assumption or continuation of the restricted stock units subject to the Award at that time, substitute one or more shares of its own common stock with a fair market value equivalent to the cash consideration paid per share of Common Stock in the Change in Control transaction.
(d) If the restricted stock units subject to this Award at the time of the Change in Control are not so assumed or otherwise continued in effect and not replaced with a cash incentive program under Paragraph 4(b), then notwithstanding the provisions of Section II of Article Three of the Plan, the Award shall be immediately cancelled with respect to any remaining unvested Shares and the Participant shall thereupon cease to have any right or entitlement to receive any Shares under the cancelled Award.
5. Adjustment in Shares. Should any change be made to the Common Stock by reason of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of shares or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class without the Corporation’s receipt of consideration, appropriate adjustments shall be made to the total number and/or class of securities issuable pursuant to this Award in order to reflect such change and thereby preclude a dilution or enlargement of benefits hereunder.
6. Issuance of Shares of Common Stock.
(a) Each Share in which the Participant vests in accordance with the Vesting Schedule shall be issued on the date (the “Issuance Date”) on which that Share so vests or as soon thereafter as administratively practicable, but in no event later than the sixtieth (60th) day following such Issuance Date. The issuance of the Shares shall be subject to the Corporation’s collection of any applicable Withholding Taxes. Unless the Participant is otherwise notified, the Withholding Taxes shall be collected through an automatic Share withholding procedure pursuant to which the Corporation will withhold, immediately as the
3
Shares vest under the Award, a portion of those vested Shares with a Fair Market Value (measured as of the vesting date) equal to the amount of such Withholding Taxes; provided, however, that the amount of any Shares so withheld shall not exceed the amount necessary to satisfy the Corporation’s required tax withholding obligations using the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that are applicable to supplemental taxable income.
(b) In no event will any fractional shares be issued. Accordingly, the total number of shares of Common Stock to be issued at the time the Award vests shall, to the extent necessary, be rounded down to the next whole share in order to avoid the issuance of a fractional share.
(c) The holder of this Award shall not have any stockholder rights, including voting or dividend rights, with respect to the Shares subject to the Award until the Participant becomes the record holder of those Shares following their actual issuance after the satisfaction of the applicable Withholding Taxes.
7. Compliance with Laws and Regulations.
(a) The issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Award shall be subject to compliance by the Corporation and the Participant with all applicable requirements of law relating thereto and with all applicable regulations of any stock exchange (or the Nasdaq Stock Market, if applicable) on which the Common Stock may be listed for trading at the time of such issuance.
(b) The inability of the Corporation to obtain approval from any regulatory body having authority deemed by the Corporation to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any Common Stock hereby shall relieve the Corporation of any liability with respect to the non-issuance of the Common Stock as to which such approval shall not have been obtained. The Corporation, however, shall use its best efforts to obtain all such approvals.
8. Successors and Assigns. Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Corporation and its successors and assigns and the Participant, Participant’s assigns, the legal representatives, heirs and legatees of the Participant’s estate and any beneficiaries of the Award designated by the Participant.
9. Notices. Any notice required to be given or delivered to the Corporation under the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and addressed to the Corporation at its principal corporate offices. Any notice required to be given or delivered to Participant shall be in writing and addressed to the Participant at the address indicated below the Participant’s signature line on this Agreement. All notices shall be deemed effective upon personal delivery or upon deposit in the U.S. mail, postage prepaid and properly addressed to the party to be notified.
10. Construction. This Agreement and the Award evidenced hereby are made and granted pursuant to the Plan and are in all respects limited by and subject to the terms
4
of the Plan. All decisions of the Plan Administrator with respect to any question or issue arising under the Plan or this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on all persons having an interest in the Award.
11. Governing Law. The interpretation, performance and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas without resort to that State’s conflict-of-laws rules.
12. Employment at Will. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in Service for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining Participant) or of the Participant, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate the Participant’s Service at any time for any reason, with or without cause, subject to the terms of the Executive Retention Agreement.
