Grant of Award. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Grantee the Award, giving the Grantee the conditional right to receive 253,164 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company (the “Shares”).
|
2.
|
Vesting. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Award will vest with respect to fifty percent (50%) of the Shares on each of March 26, 2015 and March 26, 2016 (each a “Vesting Date”); provided, that, the Grantee is still employed by or providing services to the Company on each such Vesting Date.
|
3.
|
Payment of Award. The Company shall, as soon as practicable upon the vesting of any portion of the Award (but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such vesting occurs), issue (if necessary) and transfer to the Grantee the Shares with respect to such vested portion of the Award, and shall deliver to the Grantee or have deposited in the Grantee’s brokerage account with the Administrator such Shares, at the Grantee’s election either electronically or represented by a certificate or certificates therefor, registered in the Grantee’s name. No Shares will be issued pursuant to this Award unless and until all legal requirements applicable to the issuance or transfer of such Shares have been complied with to the satisfaction of the Company.
|
a.
|
If the Grantee’s employment or service is terminated due to death and such death occurs before this Award is vested in full, this Award shall automatically vest in full.
|
b.
|
If the Grantee’s employment or service is terminated due to Disability (as defined herein) or Retirement (as defined herein) and such Disability or Retirement, as the case may be, occurs prior to the date this Award is vested in full, for purposes of this Agreement only, the Grantee shall be treated, as if his employment or service continued with the Company until the date this Award would have vested in full under Section 2 (the “Extension Period”) and the Award will vest in accordance with the schedule set forth in Section 2; provided, that, if the Grantee dies during the Extension Period and the Restricted Stock has not otherwise been forfeited in accordance with this Agreement, this Award shall automatically vest in full on the date of death; provided further, that notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement or the Plan to the contrary, including, without limitation, Section 3, to the extent that this Award becomes vested in accordance with this Section 4(b), payment of the applicable portion of the Award shall in no event be later than the date that is 2 1/2 months after the date such portion becomes vested under this Section 4(b) in accordance with the schedule set forth in Section 2 (with each payment deemed a separate installment for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), to the extent such section of the Code is applicable).
|
c.
|
If the termination of the Grantee’s employment or service is for any other reason, the then unvested portion of the Award shall be immediately forfeited without consideration. The Grantee’s status as an employee or other service-provider shall not be considered terminated in the case of a leave of absence agreed to in writing by the Company (including, but not limited to, military and sick leave); provided, that, such leave is for a period of not more than three months or re-employment or re-engagement upon expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute.
|
i.
|
If it is determined by the Committee that the Grantee engaged (or is engaging in) any activity that is harmful to the business or reputation of the Company (or any parent or subsidiary), including, without limitation, any “Competitive Activity” (as defined below) or conduct prejudicial to or in conflict with the Company (or any parent or subsidiary) or any material breach of a contractual obligation to the Company (or any parent or subsidiary) (collectively, “Prohibited Acts”), then, upon such determination by the Committee, the unvested portion of the Award shall be forfeited without consideration.
|
ii.
|
If it is determined by the Committee that the Grantee engaged in (or is engaging in) any Prohibited Act where such Prohibited Act occurred or is occurring within the one (1) year period immediately following the vesting of any portion of the Award, the Grantee agrees that he/she will repay to the Company any gain realized on the vesting of such portion of the Award (such gain to be valued as of the relevant Vesting Date(s) based on the Fair Market Value (as defined in Section 5.2 of the Plan) of the Shares vesting on the relevant Vesting Date). Such repayment obligation will be effective as of the date specified by the Committee. Any repayment obligation must be satisfied in cash or, if permitted in the sole discretion of the Committee, in shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the gain realized upon vesting of such portion of the Award. The Company is specifically authorized to off-set and deduct from
any other payments, if any, including, without limitation, wages, salary or bonus, that it may own the Grantee to secure the repayment obligations herein contained.
|
e.
|
The term “Company” as used in this Agreement with reference to the employment or service of the Grantee shall include the Company and its parent and subsidiaries, as appropriate.
|
5.
|
Change in Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined herein) of the Company, this Award shall become immediately fully vested.
|
6.
|
Withholding. The Grantee agrees that no later than each Vesting Date, the Grantee shall pay to the Administrator (or at the option of the Company, to the Company) such amount as the Company deems necessary to satisfy its obligation to withhold federal, state or local income or other taxes incurred with respect to the portion of the Award vesting on such Vesting Date. The Grantee may elect to pay to the Administrator (or at the option of the Company, to the Company) an amount equal to the amount of the taxes which the Company shall be required to withhold by delivering to the Administrator (or at the option of the Company, to the Company), cash, a check or at the sole discretion of the Company, shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of the withholding tax obligation as determined by the Company.
|
a.
|
It is the intent of the Company that the payments and benefits under this Agreement shall comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A of the Code and applicable regulations and guidance thereunder (collectively, “Section 409A”) and accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance with, or be exempt from, Section 409A. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on the Grantee by Section 409A or for any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A.
|
b.
|
For purposes of Section 409A and to the extent Section 409A is applicable to any payment hereunder, Grantee’s right to receive any installment payment pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments.
|
c.
|
Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g., “payment shall be made within 2 1/2 months following the date specified in Section 2” or “payment shall be made no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which vesting occurs”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the Company’s sole discretion.
|
d.
|
If Grantee is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code, any amounts to which Grantee is entitled under this Agreement that constitute “non-qualified deferred compensation” payable on “separation from service” under Section 409A and would otherwise be payable prior to the earlier of (i) the 6-month anniversary of the Employee’s date of termination and (ii) the date of the Employee’s death (the “Delay Period”) shall instead be paid in a lump sum immediately upon (and not before) the expiration of the Delay Period to the extent required under Section 409A.
|
8.
|
Rights as a Stockholder. No Shares shall be issued under this Award until payment of the applicable tax withholding obligations have been satisfied or provided for to the satisfaction of the Company, and the Grantee shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares covered by this Award until such shares are duly and validly issued by the Company to or on behalf of the Grantee.
|
9.
|
Non-Transferability. This Award is not assignable or transferable except upon the Grantee's death to a beneficiary designated by the Grantee in a manner prescribed or approved for this purpose by the Committee or, if no designated beneficiary shall survive the Grantee, pursuant to the Grantee's will or by the laws of descent and distribution.
|
10.
|
Limitation of Rights. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall confer upon the Grantee any right with respect to the continuation of his employment or service with the Company, or interfere in any way with the right of the Company at any time to terminate such employment or other service or to increase or decrease, or otherwise adjust, the compensation and/or other terms and conditions of the Grantee's employment or other service.
|
11.
|
Restrictions on Transfer. The Grantee agrees, by acceptance of this Award, that, upon issuance of any Shares hereunder, that, unless such Shares are then registered under applicable federal and state securities laws, (i) acquisition of such Shares will be for investment and not with a view to the distribution thereof, and (ii) the Company may require an investment letter from the Grantee in such form as may be recommended by Company counsel. The Company shall in no event be obliged to register any securities pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 (as now in effect or as hereafter amended) or to take any other affirmative action in order to the issuance or transfer of Shares pursuant to this Award to comply with any law or regulation of any governmental authority.
