Manner of Exercise of Option. (a) To the extent that the right to exercise the Option has accrued and is in effect, the Option may be exercised in full or in part by giving written notice to the Company stating the number of Shares as to which the Option is being exercised and accompanied by payment in full for such Shares. No partial exercise may be made for less than one hundred (100) full Shares of Common Stock. Payment shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Upon such exercise, delivery of a certificate for paid-up, non- assessable Shares shall be made at the principal office of the Company to the person exercising the Option, not less than thirty (30) and not more than ninety (90) days from the date of receipt of the notice by the Company.
(b) The Company shall at all times during the term of the Option reserve and keep available such number of Shares of its Common Stock as will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Option.
Manner of Exercise of Option. (a) To the extent that the right to exercise the Option has accrued and is in effect, the option may be exercised in full or in part by giving written notice to the Company stating the number of Shares exercised and accompanied by payment in full for such Shares. No partial exercise may be made for less than one hundred (100) full shares of Common Stock. Payment may be either wholly in cash or in whole or in part in Shares already owned by the person exercising the Option, valued at fair market value as of the date of exercise; provided, however, that payment of the exercise price by delivery of Shares already owned by the person exercising the Option may be made only if such payment does not result in a charge to earnings for financial accounting purposes as determined by the Board. Upon such exercise, delivery of a certificate for paid-up, non-assessable Shares shall be made at the principal office of the Company to the person exercising the option, not less than thirty (30) and not more than ninety (90) days from the date of receipt of the notice by the Company.
(b) The Company shall at all times during the term of the Option reserve and keep available such number of Shares as will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Option.
Manner of Exercise of Option. (a) The Employee may exercise any Option that is fully vested and exercisable by giving written notice to the Company stating the number of Shares (which shall not be less than 100, unless the total Shares which are vested and exercisable at such time is less than 100) to be purchased and accompanied by payment in full of the Exercise Price for such Shares. Payment shall be either in cash or by a certified or bank cashier's check or checks payable to the Company. At any time when Common Stock is registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Option may also be exercised by means of a "broker cashless exercise" procedure approved in all respects in advance by the Board, in which a broker: (i) transmits the Exercise Price for any Shares to the Company in cash or acceptable cash equivalents, either (1) against the Employee's notice of exercise and the Company's confirmation that it will deliver to the broker stock certificates issued in the name of the broker for at least that number of Shares having a fair market value equal to the Exercise Price therefor, or (2) as the proceeds of a margin loan to the Employee; or (ii) agrees to pay the Exercise Price therefor to the Company in cash or acceptable cash equivalents upon the broker's receipt from the Company of stock certificates issued in the name of the broker for at least that number of Shares having a fair market value equal to the Exercise Price therefor. The Employee's written notice of exercise of the Option pursuant to a "cashless exercise" procedure must include the name and address of the broker involved, a clear description of the procedure, and such other information or undertaking by the broker as the Board shall reasonably require. If payment is to be made in whole or in part in Shares underlying the Option, the Employee shall direct the Company to subtract from the number of Shares underlying the Option, that number of Shares having a fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board) equal to the purchase price (or portion thereof) to be paid with such underlying Shares. Upon such purchase, delivery of a certificate for paid-up, non-assessable Shares shall be made at the principal office of the Company to the Employee (or the person entitled to exercise the Option pursuant to Section 7), not more than 10 days from the date of receipt of the notice by the Company.
(b) The Company shall at all times during the term of the Option reserve and keep avai...
Manner of Exercise of Option. (a) The Option may be exercised only by (i) Participant’s completion, execution and delivery to the Company of a notice of exercise and, if required by the Company, an “investment letter” as supplied by the Company confirming Participant’s representations and warranties in Section 17 of this Agreement, including the representation that Participant is acquiring the Shares for investment only and not with a view to the resale or other distribution thereof, and (ii) the payment to the Company, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, of an amount equal to the Purchase Price multiplied by the number of Shares being purchased as specified in Participant’s notice of exercise. Participant’s notice of exercise shall be given in the manner specified in Section 12 but any exercise of the Option shall be effective only when the items required by the preceding sentence are actually received by the Company. The notice of exercise and the “investment letter” may be in the form set forth in Exhibit A attached to this Agreement. Payment of the aggregate Purchase Price for Shares Participant has elected to purchase shall be made by cash or good check. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Option may be exercised only if compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws can be effected.
(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 4 of the Plan, upon any exercise of the Option by Participant or as soon thereafter as is practicable, the Company shall issue and deliver to Participant a certificate or certificates evidencing such number of Shares as Participant has then elected to purchase. Such certificate or certificates shall be registered in the name of Participant and shall bear the legend specified in Section 16 of this Agreement and any legend required by any federal or state securities laws and by the state in which the Company is incorporated.
Manner of Exercise of Option. (a) The Option shall be exercised by delivering to the Company from time to time a signed statement of exercise specifying the number of Shares to be purchased, together with cash or a check made payable to the order of the Company for an amount equal to the aggregate Option Price of such Shares. Payment in full or in part may also be made by delivery of (i) irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds to pay the aggregate Option Price, or (ii) previously owned Shares not then subject to restrictions under any Company plan (but which may include shares of Common Stock the disposition of which constitutes a disqualifying disposition for purposes of obtaining incentive stock option treatment for federal tax purposes), (iii) Shares otherwise receivable upon the exercise of this Option, provided, however, that in the event that, in any given instance, the exercise of this Option by withholding Shares otherwise receivable would be unlawful, unduly burdensome or otherwise inappropriate, the Company may require that such exercise be accomplished in another acceptable manner, (iv) any other legal consideration that the Company may deem appropriate, or (v) any combination of the foregoing. For purposes of this Section 3, any such surrendered Shares shall be valued at the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the most recent trading day preceding the date of exercise on which sales of the Shares occurred.
(b) The issuance of optioned Shares shall be conditioned on the Participant having either (i) paid, or (ii) made provisions satisfactory to the Committee for the payment of, all applicable tax withholding obligations. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Participant. In addition, the Company in its discretion, but only upon the written request of the Participant, may permit the Participant to satisfy any and all applicable federal, state, local and foreign income tax withholding requirements (including Participant’s FICA or employment tax obligations) occasioned by the exercise thereof by the surrender of Shares otherwise to be received on the exercise of such Option. For purposes of this subsection (b), such surrendered Shares shall be valued at the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock in the New York Stock Exchange on the most recen...
Manner of Exercise of Option. (a) To the extent that the right to exercise the Option has accrued and is in effect, the Option may be exercised in full or in part by giving written notice to the Company stating the number of Shares exercised and accompanied by payment in full for such Shares. Payment shall be wholly in cash or by check payable to the order of the Company. Upon such exercise, delivery of a certificate for paid-up, non-assessable Shares shall be made at the principal office of the Company to the person exercising the Option, not more than thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of the notice by the Company.
(b) The Company shall at all times during the term of the Option reserve and keep available such number of Shares of its common stock as will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Option. The Employee shall not have any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company in respect of the Shares until one or more certificates for such Shares shall be delivered to him or her upon the due exercise of the Option.
Manner of Exercise of Option. This Option may be exercised, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, by delivering written notice to the Chief Executive Officer or Treasurer of the Company at its principal office no less than three days in advance of the proposed exercise date. Such notice shall specify the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which this Option is being exercised and the effective date of the proposed exercise and shall be signed by the Optionee. The notice shall be accompanied by a certified check or cash in the amount of the aggregate option exercise price for such number of shares. In no event shall stock be issued or certificates be delivered until full payment shall have been received by the Company as to such exercise or partial exercise, nor shall the Optionee have any right or status as a shareholder of such underlying shares prior to such exercise. Certificates for shares of Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of this Option shall be delivered to the Optionee as soon as practicable following the effective date on which this Option is exercised.
Manner of Exercise of Option. This option is to be exercised by the Optionee (or by the Optionee's successor or successors) by giving written notice to the Company of an election to exercise such option. Such notice shall specify the number of shares to be purchased hereunder and shall specify a date (not more than 30 calendar days and not less than 10 calendar days from the date of delivery of the notice to the Company) on which the Optionee shall deliver payment of the full purchase price for the shares being purchased and the Company shall deliver certificates to the Optionee representing the shares so purchased. Such notice shall be delivered to the Company at its principal place of business. An option shall be considered exercised at the time the Company receives such notice. Upon receipt of such notice and subject to the provisions of Paragraph 9 below, the Company shall, on the date specified in such notice and against payment by the Optionee of the required purchase price, deliver to the Optionee certificates for the shares so purchased. Payment for shares of Option Shares may be made in the form of cash, certified check, or, if authorized by the Board of Directors or a committee established to administer the Plan, in the form of Common Stock of the Company, or any combination thereof. Any stock so tendered as part of such payment shall be valued at its then "fair market value" as provided in the Plan. All requisite original issue or transfer documentary stamp taxes shall be paid by the Company.
Manner of Exercise of Option. (a) The Option may be exercised only by (i) Participant’s completion, execution and delivery to the Company of a notice of exercise and, if required by the Company, an “investment letter” as supplied by the Company confirming Participant’s representations and warranties in Section 20 of this Agreement, including the representation that Participant is acquiring the Shares for investment only and not with a view to the resale or other distribution thereof, and (ii) the payment to the Company, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, of an amount equal to the Purchase Price multiplied by the number of Shares being purchased as specified in Participant’s notice of exercise. Participant’s right to exercise the Option shall be conditioned upon and subject to satisfaction, in a manner acceptable to the Company, of any withholding liability under any state or federal law arising in connection with exercise of the Option. Participant must provide notice of exercise of the Option with respect to no fewer than 100 Shares (or any lesser number of Shares with respect to which the Option is then vested and exercisable). Participant’s notice of exercise shall be given in the manner specified in Section 16 but any exercise of the Option shall be effective only when the items required by the preceding sentence are actually received by the Company. The notice of exercise and the “investment letter” may be in the form set forth in Exhibit A attached to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Option may be exercised only if compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws can be effected. Payment of the aggregate Purchase Price may be made in cash or by check payable to the order of the Company for an amount in U.S. dollars equal to the aggregate Purchase Price of such Shares. Payment may also be made by delivery of shares of Stock held by the Participant for the requisite period necessary to avoid a charge to the Company’s earnings for financial reporting purposes, as determined by the Committee in its discretion, and having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the amount of cash that would otherwise be required to pay the aggregate Purchase Price. After the Company has consummated a Public Offering, payment may also be made by authorizing a third party to sell a portion of the Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option and remit to the Company a sufficient portion of the sales proceeds to pay the aggregate Purchase...
Manner of Exercise of Option. The Option may be exercised by delivery, via first class mail, interoffice mail, fax or electronic mail of a Notice of Option Exercise and related forms to the Company stating the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised and accompanied by payment of the Total Exercise Cost in cash or by check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company or, subsequent to an Initial Public Offering, through the delivery to the Company of an Authorization for Exercise of Options "Cashless" Exercise Form with irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to the Company an amount equal to the Total Exercise Cost, subject to such limitations as the Committee may adopt from time to time or by any combination of the above methods of payment.
