In the event that the Company or Affiliate fails to remedy the condition constituting Good Reason during the applicable Cure Period, the Participant’s Termination of Service must occur, if at all, within 90 days following such Cure Period in order for such termination as a result of such condition to constitute a Termination of Service for Good Reason.

To the extent permitted under applicable law and, with respect to any Invesco Stock Award, the GEIP, the Committee may delegate its authority under the Plan to any person or persons selected by the Committee, including one or more members of the Committee, and any person or persons to whom such authority is delegated shall be deemed to be the Committee with respect to, and to the extent of, its or their authority. 
(d)    Procedures.  
(i)    The Committee may act by a majority of its members then in office and through any person or persons to whom it has delegated its authority under Section 4(c), except to the extent otherwise provided in the GEIP with respect to an Invesco Stock Award.
(ii)    Except to the extent otherwise provided in the GEIP with respect to an Invesco Stock Award, any authority granted to the Committee may also be exercised by the full Board, and to the extent that any permitted action taken by the Board conflicts with action taken by the Committee, the Board action shall control.

All decisions made by the Committee or any appropriately delegated person or persons shall be final and binding on all persons, including the Company, Eligible Individuals and Participants.

Without in any way limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, the following are 




8


Exhibit 10.2



examples, without limitation, of when all or any portion of an outstanding Award to any Participant may be canceled or suspended:  if the Participant (1) in the sole discretion of the Committee or any appropriately delegated person or persons, materially breaches (A) any duties of Participant’s employment (whether express or implied), including without limitation Participant’s duties of fidelity, good faith and exclusive service, (B) any general terms and conditions of Participant’s employment such as an employee handbook or guidelines, (C) any policies and procedures of the Company or any of its Affiliates applicable to the Participant, or (D) any other agreement regarding Participant’s employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates, or (2), without the prior written explicit consent of the Committee or any appropriately delegated person or persons (which consent may be granted or denied in the sole discretion of the Committee or such person or persons), while employed by, or providing services to, the Company or any of its Affiliates or after a Termination of Service, becomes associated with, employed by, renders services to, or owns any interest in (other than any nonsubstantial interest, as determined by the Committee or any appropriately delegated person or persons in its or their sole discretion), any business that is in competition with the Company or any of its Affiliates or with any business in which the Company or any of its Affiliates has a substantial interest, as determined by the Committee or any appropriately delegated person or persons in its or their sole discretion.
(g)    Award Agreement.  The terms and conditions of each Investment Fund Award under the Plan, as determined by the Committee, shall be set forth in writing (including electronically), shall be issued in the name of the Company or the Affiliate that employs the Participant and shall be delivered to a Participant receiving an Investment Fund Award upon, or as promptly as is reasonably practicable following, the grant of such Investment Fund Award.  Unless otherwise specified by the Committee, in its sole discretion, or otherwise provided in an Investment Fund Award or an Investment Fund Agreement, an Investment Fund Award shall not be effective unless the related Investment Fund Agreement is signed or otherwise accepted by the Participant receiving the Investment Fund Award (including by electronic means).  The Committee, in its sole discretion, may deliver any documents related to an Investment Fund Award by electronic means.  Investment Fund Agreements may be amended only in accordance with Section 10.  Awards that are allocated to Invesco Stock Awards shall be administered under the GEIP.
5.    Eligibility and Elections
(a)    Eligibility.  The Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine and designate the Eligible Individuals who shall receive Awards and shall make Awards.  An Eligible Individual shall become a Participant in the Plan upon the Eligible Individual’s acceptance of the terms and conditions of the Plan and an Investment Fund Agreement or, in the case of an Invesco Stock Award, an award agreement issued pursuant to the GEIP.  The Committee’s decision to grant an Award to an Eligible Individual shall not guarantee or give the Eligible Individual any right to receive a grant of an Award in the future. 
(b)    Elections.  Unless the Committee specifies the allocation of a potential Award between Investment Choices or to an Invesco Stock Award, an Eligible Individual shall, within the time period prescribed by the Committee, elect: 
(i)    the percentage of a potential Award that will be allocated to an Investment Fund Award and, if applicable, to an Invesco Stock Award (in one percent (1%) 




9


Exhibit 10.2



increments); provided, however, that the Committee may require that specified minimum percentages of the amount be allocated to an Investment Fund Award or an Invesco Stock Award; and
(ii)    the Investment Choices in which the Participant’s Investment Fund Award will be deemed invested (in one percent (1%) increments), if applicable.
An Eligible Individual’s election under this Section 5(b) shall be irrevocable and non-amendable, except as specifically provided by the Committee.  If an Eligible Individual who is permitted to allocate a potential Award between an Investment Fund Award and an Invesco Stock Award fails to make such allocation in a timely manner, the entire amount will be allocated solely to an Invesco Stock Award, unless the Committee specifies that the amount will be allocated in a different manner.
An Investment Fund Award shall be administered in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan and the applicable Investment Fund Agreement.  An Invesco Stock Award shall be administered in accordance with and subject to the GEIP and the applicable stock award agreement.  
6.    Investment Fund Awards
(a)    Grant of Investment Fund Awards and Credits to Investment Funds Accounts.  Upon a Participant’s acceptance of the terms and conditions of the Plan and an Investment Fund Agreement, an Investment Fund Award shall be effective as of the Grant Date determined by the Committee, and the Participant’s Investment Funds Account shall be credited with the Investment Fund Award as of the Grant Date.


(b)    Investment Choice Allocation.  Amounts credited to a Participant’s Investment Funds Account shall be deemed invested in one percent (1%) increments in one or more of the Investment Choices made available under the Plan.  Except as otherwise permitted by the Committee in its sole discretion, a Participant may not amend, alter or otherwise reallocate the Investment Choices designated by a Participant pursuant to Section 5(b). 


(c)    Investment and Valuation of Investment Funds Account.  Any portion of an Investment Fund Award allocated to an Investment Choice shall be denominated in shares or units of such investment by dividing the applicable cash amount by the Fair Market Value of a share or unit in the applicable Investment Choice as of the Grant Date, and if required for record keeping purposes or otherwise applicable, rounding down to the nearest whole number of such shares or units.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, as of the time of any payment of a cash dividend with respect to shares or units of an Investment Choice deemed held in a Participant’s Investment Fund Account, the number of shares or units deemed held shall be adjusted by crediting a number of shares or units equal to (i) the cash amount of the aggregate dividends that would be payable on the number of shares or units of the underlying Investment Choice deemed held immediately before the record date for the dividend, divided by (ii) the Fair Market Value of the shares or units of such Investment Choice on the date the dividend is paid. As of any Valuation Date, the Participant’s interest in each such investment shall be valued by multiplying the Fair Market Value of the Investment Choice as of such date by the number of shares or units deemed held in the underlying Investment Choice as of such date. 




10


Exhibit 10.2



All allocations to an Investment Choice deemed credited to a Participant’s Investment Funds Account shall be wholly notional and shall be used solely to determine the amount payable to a Participant pursuant to Section 6(g). Neither the Company nor the Committee shall have any obligation to purchase shares or units in any Investment Choice unless and until payment is made to a Participant in shares or units of an Investment Choice.
(d)    Committee Discretion.  The Committee shall have the sole discretion to determine the Investment Choices available to each Participant and may change, limit or eliminate an Investment Choice provided hereunder from time to time.  If any Investment Choice ceases to be available under the Plan, the Committee shall have the authority to credit to any or all other then-available Investment Choices all amounts previously allocated to the terminated Investment Choice (along with deemed earnings, gains and losses and dividends relating thereto).  


(e)    Investment Agreements.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, amounts allocated to a Participant’s Investment Funds Account shall be subject to the terms and conditions provided in the Investment Fund Agreement in the form set forth and approved by the Committee from time to time.


(f)    Vesting and Payment.  The Committee shall, prior to or at the time of grant, condition the vesting and payment of amounts credited to a Participant’s Investment Funds Account in respect of an Investment Fund Award upon (i) the continued service of the Participant, (ii) the attainment of Performance Goals or (iii) the attainment of Performance Goals and the continued service of the Participant.  The conditions for vesting and the other provisions of an Investment Fund Award (including, without limitation, any applicable Performance Goals) need not be the same with respect to each Participant.


(g)    Payments.  Except as otherwise provided in an Investment Fund Agreement, vested amounts from a Participant’s Investment Funds Account shall be paid by either the Company or the Affiliate that employs the Participant in a lump-sum cash payment at the time specified in the Investment Fund Agreement in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of such vested portion on the Payment Date, or if the Payment Date is not a Valuation Date, the most recent preceding Valuation Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may provide in the Investment Fund Agreement that all or a portion of a Participant’s Investment Funds Account may be paid in the form of Investment Choice shares under such circumstances as the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion.  


7.    Invesco Stock Awards
(a)    Invesco Stock Awards. Any amount of an Award allocated to Invesco Stock Awards pursuant to Section 5 shall be awarded in the form of restricted stock or restricted stock units, as determined by the Committee, under the GEIP. The number of Shares of restricted stock or restricted stock units granted pursuant to an Invesco Stock Award shall be determined by (i) dividing the amount allocated to the Invesco Stock Award by the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the Grant Date, and (ii) rounding down to the nearest whole number.  All terms of an Invesco Stock Award, including vesting, time of payment, and the form of the grant or award agreement, shall be determined under or in accordance with the GEIP.  For the avoidance of doubt, any allocations to an Invesco Stock Award shall be administered separately pursuant to the GEIP and 




11


Exhibit 10.2



a Participant’s Investment Funds Account shall be adjusted accordingly to reflect only allocations made to an Investment Choice.
(b)    Source of Shares. Invesco Stock Awards shall be issued under the GEIP by the Committee acting in its capacity as the Committee under the GEIP, subject to all of the terms and conditions of the GEIP and any applicable award agreement. This Plan does not constitute a separate source of Shares for the grant of the Invesco Stock Awards described herein.


8.    Change in Control Provisions
The provisions of this Section 8 shall apply in the case of a Change in Control, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Investment Fund Agreement or any other provision of the Plan.
(a)    Investment Fund Awards Not Assumed, Etc. in Connection with Change of Control.   Upon the occurrence of a transaction that constitutes a Change in Control, if any Investment  Fund Award is not assumed, converted or otherwise equitably converted or substituted in a manner approved by the Committee, then such Investment Fund Award shall upon the Change in Control become fully vested and be paid or distributed, as applicable, as soon as administratively feasible.  
(b)    Investment Fund Awards Assumed, Etc. in Connection with Change of Control.   Upon the occurrence of a transaction that constitutes a Change in Control, with respect to any Investment Fund Award that is assumed, converted or otherwise equitably converted or substituted in a manner approved by the Committee, then, in the event of a Participant’s Termination of Service during the 24 month period following such Change in Control, (x) by the Company other than for Cause or unsatisfactory performance, or (y) by the Participant for Good Reason each outstanding Investment Fund Award shall become fully vested and shall be paid or distributed, as applicable, as soon as administratively feasible. 
(b)    Other Corporate Events.  In the case of a Corporate Event, the Committee or the Board may make such adjustments to any Investment Fund Award as the Committee or Board shall deem appropriate, which may include, without limitation, (i) the cancellation of outstanding Investment Fund Awards in exchange for the payment of cash, securities or other property or a combination thereof having an aggregate value equal to the value of such Investment Fund Awards, as determined by the Committee or the Board in its sole discretion, and (ii) the substitution of securities or other property (including, without limitation, cash or other securities of the Company and securities of entities other than the Company) for any Investment Choice shares or units subject to outstanding Investment Fund Awards.  In the event of any separation, spinoff, Disaffiliation or other similar event, the Committee or the Board may arrange for the assumption of Investment Fund Awards or the replacement of Investment Fund Awards with new awards based on securities or other property (including, without limitation, other securities of the Company and securities of entities other than the Company), by the affected Affiliate, or business segment or by the entity that controls such Affiliate, or business segment following such event (as well as any corresponding adjustments to Investment Fund Awards that remain based upon Company securities other than Shares).
(c)    Section 409A.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if any Investment Fund Award to a Participant who is subject to U.S. income tax is considered a “nonqualified deferred 




12


Exhibit 10.2



compensation plan” within the meaning of section 409A of the Code, this Section 8 shall apply to such Investment Fund Award only to the extent that its application would not result in the imposition of any tax or interest or the inclusion of any amount in income under section 409A of the Code, and (ii) for any Investment Fund Award that is not considered a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of section 409A of the Code, any adjustments under Section 8(b) shall be made in such a manner as to ensure that after such adjustment, the Investment Fund Award either (A) continues not to be subject to section 409A of the Code or (B) complies with the requirements of section 409A of the Code; and (iii) in any event, neither the Committee nor the Board shall have the authority to make any adjustments pursuant to Section 8(b) to the extent the existence of such authority would cause an Investment Fund Award that is not intended to be subject to section 409A of the Code at the Grant Date to be subject thereto.
9.    Section 409A
(a)    General Compliance.  It is the intention of the Company that each Award made or granted under the Plan shall either be exempt from or comply in all respects with the requirements of section 409A of the Code to avoid the imposition of any tax or interest or the inclusion of any amount in income thereunder, and the terms of each such Award shall be interpreted, administered and deemed amended, if applicable, in a manner consistent with this intention. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company or any of its Affiliates, nor the Committee or any of its members, will be liable for any taxes, penalties or interest imposed on any Eligible Individual, Participant, Beneficiary or other person with respect to any amounts paid or payable (whether in cash or property) under any Award, including any taxes, penalties or interest imposed under or as a result of section 409A of the Code.  
(b)    Specified Employees.  Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, any Investment Fund Award or Investment Fund Agreement to the contrary, with respect to any Investment Fund Award that constitutes a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” within the meaning of section 409A of the Code, any payments (whether in cash or other property) to be made with respect to the Investment Fund Award upon the Participant’s Termination of Service that would otherwise be paid within six (6) months after the Participant’s Termination of Service shall be accumulated (without interest, to the extent applicable) and paid on the first day of the seventh month following the Participant’s Termination of Service if the Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of section 409A of the Code (as determined in accordance with the uniform policy adopted by the Committee with respect to all of the arrangements subject to section 409A of the Code maintained by the Company and its Affiliates).
10.    Amendment and Discontinuance
(a)    Amendment and Discontinuance of the Plan.  The Board or the Committee may amend, alter or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment, alteration or discontinuation shall be made which would materially impair the rights of a Participant with respect to a previously granted Award without such Participant’s consent, except such an amendment made to comply with applicable law or Applicable Exchange rule or to prevent adverse tax or accounting consequences to the Company or Participants.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment shall be made without the approval of the Company’s Shareholders to the extent such approval is required by applicable law or Applicable Exchange rule.




13


Exhibit 10.2



(b)    Amendment of Investment Fund Awards.  The Committee may unilaterally amend the terms of any Investment Fund Award theretofore granted or any related Investment Fund Agreement, but no such amendment shall materially impair the rights of any Participant with respect to such Investment Fund Award without the Participant’s consent, except such an amendment made to cause the Plan or such Investment Fund Award to comply with applicable law or an Applicable Exchange rule, to prevent adverse tax or accounting consequences for the Participant or the Company or any of its Affiliates or in accordance with Section 4(f).    


11.    Unfunded Status of Plan
It is currently intended that the Plan constitute an “unfunded” plan.  The Committee may authorize the creation of trusts or other arrangements to meet the obligations created under the Plan to make payments; provided, however, that unless the Committee otherwise determines, the existence of such trusts or other arrangements is consistent with the “unfunded” status of the Plan.
12.    General Provisions
(a)    Additional Compensation Arrangements.  Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company or any Affiliate from adopting other or additional compensation arrangements for its employees.
(b)    No Contract of Employment.  Neither the Plan nor any Award shall constitute a contract of employment, and neither the adoption of the Plan nor the making or granting of any Award shall confer upon any employee any right to continued employment.  Neither the Plan nor any Award shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate the employment of any employee at any time.
(c)    Required Taxes.  No later than the date as of which an amount first becomes includible in the gross income of a Participant for U.S. federal, state, local or foreign income or employment or other tax purposes with respect to any Award under the Plan, such Participant shall pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company regarding the payment of, any U.S. federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such amount, unless otherwise determined by the Committee. The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be conditional on such payment or arrangements, and the Company and its Affiliates shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment otherwise due to such Participant.  The Committee may establish such procedures as it deems appropriate for this purpose. Regardless of any arrangements made by the Company, any Affiliate or the Committee with respect to the withholding or other payment of any U.S. federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind, the liability for all such taxes legally due from a Participant remains the responsibility of the Participant.  By accepting an Award, a Participant consents to the methods of tax withholding established by the Committee or otherwise made or arranged by the Company.
(d)    Rights of a Beneficiary.  Any amounts payable and any rights exercisable under an Award after a Participant’s death shall be paid to and exercised by the Participant’s Beneficiary, 




14


Exhibit 10.2



except to the extent prohibited by applicable law, Applicable Exchange rule or the terms of an applicable Investment Fund Agreement.
(e)    Governing Law and Interpretation.  The Plan and Awards made and actions taken thereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, without reference to principles of conflict of laws.  The captions of the Plan are not part of the provisions hereof and shall have no force or effect.
(f)    Non-Transferability.  Awards cannot be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, except as provided in Section 12(d).
(g)    Foreign Employees and Foreign Law Considerations.  The Committee may make Awards to Eligible Individuals who are foreign nationals, who are employed outside the United States or who are not compensated from a payroll maintained in the United States, or who are otherwise subject to (or could cause the Company to be subject to) tax, legal or regulatory provisions of countries or jurisdictions outside the United States, on such terms and conditions different from those specified in the Plan as may, in the judgment of the Committee, be necessary or desirable to foster and promote achievement of the purposes of the Plan. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, Awards to Participants who are employed and/or otherwise subject to the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States shall be subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee shall establish and set forth in an applicable Investment Fund Agreement, including any addendum thereto.  
(h)    Use of English Language.  The Plan, each Award or Investment Fund Agreement or, in the case of an Invesco Stock Award, an award agreement issued pursuant to the GEIP, and all other documents, notices and legal proceedings entered into, given or instituted pursuant to an Award shall be written in English, unless otherwise determined by the Committee.  If a Participant receives a copy of the Plan, an Award or Investment Fund Agreement or, in the case of an Invesco Stock Award, an award agreement issued pursuant to the GEIP, or any other document related to an Award under the Plan that is translated into a language other than English, and if the meaning of the translated version is different from the English version, the English version shall control.
(i)    Recovery of Amounts Paid.  All Awards granted under the Plan shall be subject to any policy established by the Committee under which the Company may recover from current and former Participants any amounts paid, Investment Choice shares issued under an Award, and any proceeds therefrom.  The Committee may apply such policy to Awards granted before the policy is adopted to the extent required by applicable law or Applicable Exchange rule or as otherwise provided by such policy.  
(j)    Notices.  A notice or other communication to the Committee shall be valid only if given in the form and to the location specified by the Committee.

Exhibit 10.2



APPENDIX A
                Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or any Award or Investment Fund Agreement, any Awards that are regulated by the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Appendix A, as applicable, and any other terms and conditions established by the Committee and set forth in a Participant’s Award or Investment Fund Agreement, or, in the case of an Invesco Stock Award, an award agreement issued pursuant to the GEIP, including any addendum thereto, which may negate the provisions of Appendix A if so specifically provided therein.
                The Committee reserves the right to impose other requirements on any Award, any amounts or other property acquired pursuant to an Award and any Participant’s participation in the Plan to the extent the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that such other requirements are necessary or advisable in order to comply with local law or to facilitate the administration of the Plan.  Such requirements may include (but are not limited to) requiring a Participant to sign any agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

Exhibit 10.2



EUROPEAN UNION


Compliance with Age Discrimination Rules.

To the extent a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of an Award is invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, under the Age Discrimination Rules, the Committee shall have the power and authority to revise or strike such provision to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable to the full extent permitted under local law.
