Stock Units. As used herein, the term “Stock Unit” shall mean a non-voting unit of measurement which is deemed for bookkeeping purposes to be equivalent to one outstanding share of the Company’s Common Stock (“Share”) solely for purposes of the Plan and this Award Agreement. The Stock Units shall be used solely as a device for the determination of the payment to eventually be made to the Participant if such Stock Units vest pursuant to this Award Agreement. The Stock Units shall not be treated as property or as a trust fund of any kind.
Stock Units. The Employee hereby accepts the Stock Units when issued and agrees with respect thereto as follows:
Stock Units. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, grant to Employees, Nonemployee Directors, and/or Independent Contractor Stock Units as additional compensation or in lieu of other compensation for services to the Company. A Stock Unit is a hypothetical share of Common Stock represented by a notional account established and maintained (or caused to be established or maintained) by the Company for such Participant who receives a grant of Stock Units. Stock Units shall be subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines appropriate including, without limitation, determinations of the Vesting Date with respect to such Stock Units and the criteria for the Vesting of such Stock Units. A Stock Unit granted by the Committee shall provide for payment in shares of Common Stock at such time or times as the Award Agreement shall specify. The Committee shall determine whether a Participant who has been granted a Stock Unit shall also be entitled to a Dividend Equivalent Right.
Stock Units. The Company shall credit the Employee’s Stock Units to a Stock Units account established and maintained for the Employee on the books of the Company payable in shares of Stock or cash. The account shall constitute the record of the Stock Units awarded to the Employee under this Agreement, is solely for accounting purposes, and shall not require a segregation of any Company assets.
Stock Units. When a Stock Unit is settled, the participant will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the Common Shares received or, if the Stock Unit is paid in cash, the amount paid.
Stock Units. In the event your Continuous Service terminates, any Stock Units and the shares of Common Stock subject thereto (that have not been issued upon settlement) shall be forfeited.
Stock Units. A Stock Unit is an Award denominated in shares of Common Stock that may be settled either in shares of Common Stock or in cash, in the discretion of the Committee, and, subject to Section 409A of the Code to the extent applicable, shall be subject to such other terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations determined by the Committee from time to time in its sole discretion.
Stock Units. As further inducement for the Officer to enter into this Agreement and to continue in the employ of the Company, the Company has granted to the Officer stock units contingent on performance and future service, pursuant to the Stock Unit Agreement executed and delivered by the Company on the date hereof in the form attached as Annex A hereto.
Stock Units. Stock Units shall mean Shares of the Employer’s Company Stock, to be included as an Investment Fund option for the Participant’s Account.
Stock Units. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each outstanding right to receive shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to a stock unit award or deferred stock award under any Company Equity Plan or the Applera Corporation Director Stock Purchase and Deferred Compensation Plan (each, a “Stock Unit Award”) that is held by a director who will not become a director of Parent as of the Effective Time pursuant to Section 5.17 shall be fully vested and settled in shares of Company Common Stock, but treated in any case in accordance with the terms of such Stock Unit Award and such director’s election form. All such shares of Company Common Stock issued pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be treated as Stock Electing Company Shares pursuant to Section 2.1(a)(iii). As of the Effective Time, each outstanding Stock Unit Award that is held by a director who will become a director of Parent as of the Effective Time pursuant to Section 5.17 shall be assumed by Parent. Subject to, and in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Company Equity Plan or the Applera Corporation Director Stock Purchase and Deferred Compensation Plan and any applicable award certificate or other agreement, each Stock Unit Award referenced in the immediately preceding sentence shall be converted into the right to receive the number of shares of Parent Common Stock (or an amount in respect thereof for cash-settled Stock Unit Awards) equal to the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to the Stock Unit Award, multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 2.1(d) (rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Common Stock). Each such Stock Unit Award shall have the same terms and conditions as were in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time.
