Tax Status of Option This Option is intended to have the tax status designated in the Grant Notice.
Tax Status Except for matters that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the Company and its Subsidiaries each (i) has made or filed all United States federal, state and local income and all foreign income and franchise tax returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject, (ii) has paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns, reports and declarations and (iii) has set aside on its books provision reasonably adequate for the payment of all material taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply. There are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company or of any Subsidiary know of no basis for any such claim.
Status of Shares Shares shall be deemed to be personal property giving Shareholders only the rights provided in this instrument. Every Shareholder by virtue of having become a Shareholder shall be held to have expressly assented and agreed to be bound by the terms hereof. The death of a Shareholder during the continuance of the Trust or any Series or Class thereof shall not operate to dissolve or terminate the Trust or any Series or Class nor entitle the representative of any deceased Shareholder to an accounting or to take any action in court or elsewhere against the Trust or the Trustees, but shall entitle such representative only to the rights of said decedent under this Trust Instrument. Ownership of Shares shall not entitle the Shareholder to any title in or to the whole or any part of the Trust Property or to any right to call for a partition or division of the same or for an accounting, nor shall the ownership of Shares constitute the Shareholders partners.
Treatment of Options Prior to the Merger Effective Time, Xxxxxx and Merger Sub shall take all such actions as may be necessary to cause each unexpired and unexercised option, whether or not vested or exercisable, under stock option plans of Xxxxxx with respect to Xxxxxx Common Stock (each, an "Option") to be automatically converted at the Merger Effective Time into an option (an "Exchange Option") to purchase, on the same terms and conditions as were applicable to each such Option immediately before the Merger Effective Time (except for any changes in vesting rights or acceleration of exercise rights pursuant to the terms of the stock option plans and related agreements in existence as of the date of this Agreement, that result from the occurrence of the Transactions), (i) that number of shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Xxxxxx Common Stock issuable immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time upon exercise of the Option and (ii) at a price per share equal to the exercise price which existed under the corresponding Option immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time; provided, however, that in the case of any Option to which Section 421 of the Code applies by reason of its qualification under Section 422 of the Code, the conversion formula shall be adjusted, if necessary, to comply with Section 424(a) of the Code. In connection with the issuance of Exchange Options, the Surviving Corporation shall (a) reserve for issuance the number of shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock that will become subject to Exchange Options pursuant to this Section 1.9 and (b) from and after the Merger Effective Time, upon exercise of Exchange Options, make available for issuance all shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock covered thereby, subject to the terms and conditions applicable thereto. Prior to the Merger Effective Time, the Board of Directors of Xxxxxx, or an appropriate committee of non-employee directors thereof, as applicable, shall adopt resolutions consistent with the interpretive guidance of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and any other applicable securities regulatory authorities so that the disposition of the Options and the acquisition of the Exchange Options, any shares of Surviving Corporation Common Stock or any other equity securities or derivative securities of the Surviving Corporation pursuant to this Agreement by any officer or director of Xxxxxx who may become a covered person of the Surviving Corporation for purposes of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the "Exchange Act"), shall be exempt for purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Restricted stock units with respect to Xxxxxx Common Stock and other incentive compensation awards (including awards under the LTAP (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement)) payable in, or determined by reference to, shares of Xxxxxx Common Stock will be converted into an equal number of restricted stock units (or incentive compensation awards) with respect to Surviving Corporation Common Stock.
Status of Stock The Employee agrees that the Restricted Shares issued under this Agreement will not be sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner which would constitute a violation of any applicable federal or state securities laws. The Employee also agrees that (i) the certificates representing the Restricted Shares may bear such legend or legends as the Committee deems appropriate in order to reflect the Forfeiture Restrictions and to assure compliance with applicable securities laws, (ii) the Company may refuse to register the transfer of the Restricted Shares on the stock transfer records of the Company if such proposed transfer would constitute a violation of the Forfeiture Restrictions or, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company, of any applicable securities law, and (iii) the Company may give related instructions to its transfer agent, if any, to stop registration of the transfer of the Restricted Shares.
Franchise Tax Status Contractor represents and warrants that it is not currently delinquent in the payment of any franchise taxes owed the State of Texas under Chapter 171 of the Texas Tax Code.
Incentive Stock Options If the Shares are held for more than twelve (12) months after the date of the transfer of the Shares pursuant to the exercise of an ISO and are disposed of more than two (2) years after the Date of Grant, any gain realized on disposition of the Shares will be treated as long term capital gain for federal and California income tax purposes. If Shares purchased under an ISO are disposed of within the applicable one (1) year or two (2) year period, any gain realized on such disposition will be treated as compensation income (taxable at ordinary income rates) to the extent of the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price.
Transferability of Options During the lifetime of an Optionee, only such Optionee (or, in the event of legal incapacity or incompetency, the Optionee’s guardian or legal representative) may exercise the Option. No Option shall be assignable or transferable by the Optionee to whom it is granted, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.
