EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

 

This Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of May 6, 2012  by and between AMAG Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation with offices at 100 Hayden Avenue, Lexington, MA 02421 (the “Company”), and William K. Heiden of [Address] (“you”).

 

Now therefore, in consideration of the premises and mutual agreements hereinafter set forth, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.                                       Position; Duties.

 

a)                                      Position.  You shall serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

 

b)                                     Duties.  You shall perform for the Company the duties customarily associated with the office of President and Chief Executive Officer and such other duties as may be assigned to you from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) that are consistent with the duties normally performed by those performing the role of the most senior executives of similar entities.  You shall devote substantially your full business time and best efforts to the performance of your duties hereunder and the business and affairs of the Company and will not undertake or engage in any other employment, occupation or business enterprise; provided, however, that you may participate as a member of the board of directors or advisory board of other entities and in professional organizations and civic and charitable organizations; provided further, that any such positions are disclosed to the Board or the Audit Committee thereof and do not materially interfere with your duties and responsibilities as President and Chief Executive Officer.  You shall be based in the Company’s principal offices, which currently are in Lexington, Massachusetts

 

2.                                       Term.  The term of this Agreement shall be for a three (3) year period commencing on the Effective Date unless terminated earlier pursuant to Section 4 below (the “Initial Term”).  The term of this Agreement shall automatically renew for additional three-year terms (each, a “Renewal Term”) following the Initial Term and any Renewal Term unless either party provides written notice to the other party at least sixty (60) days before the end of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, as applicable, that it does not desire to renew this Agreement, in which case this Agreement shall expire at the end of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, as applicable.  The Initial Term and any Renewal Term are referred to herein collectively as the “Term.”  The “Effective Date” of this Agreement shall be the first day of your employment with the Company, provided that such first day of employment occurs prior to May 31, 2012.  For avoidance of doubt, if your first day of employment does not occur by such date, then this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.

 

3.                                       Compensation and Benefits.  The Company shall pay you the following compensation and benefits for all services rendered by you under this Agreement:

 

 

a)                                      Base Salary.  The Company will pay you a base salary at the annualized rate of at least $500,000 (“Base Salary”), minus withholdings as required by law and other deductions authorized by you, which amount shall be paid in equal installments at the Company’s regular payroll intervals, but not less often than monthly.  Your base salary may be increased annually by the Board or the Compensation Committee in their sole discretion.

 

b)                                     Bonus.  You will be eligible to receive an annual performance bonus (the “Annual Bonus”) of up to 75% of Base Salary for each fiscal year during the Term of this Agreement beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012 based on the extent to which, in the discretion of the Board in consultation with you, you achieve or exceed specific and measurable individual and Company performance objectives established by the Board in consultation with you and communicated to you in advance.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, your bonus opportunity with respect to the 2012 fiscal year shall be pro rated based on the length of your employment during such fiscal year.  The exact amount of the bonus for any year during the Term shall be determined by the Board in its sole discretion and may be more than the target bonus in the event you achieve all of your personal and Company performance objectives or less than the target bonus if you do not achieve all of your personal and Company performance objectives.  The Company shall pay the Annual Bonus no later than two and a half months after the end of the fiscal year to which the applicable bonus relates.  Unless otherwise provided herein, no bonus shall be deemed to have been earned by you for any year in which you are not actively employed by the Company on the last day of the fiscal year to which the bonus relates. In addition to the foregoing, effective on the first payroll date after the Effective Date, the Company shall pay you a signing bonus of $75,000, minus withholdings as required by law.

 

c)                                      Equity Compensation.  As a material inducement to you accepting employment with the Company, effective on the first day of your employment with the Company, you shall be granted an option with respect to 300,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company with an exercise price equal to the then fair market value of the Common Stock, and you shall be granted restricted stock units with respect to 100,000 shares of Common Stock.  The foregoing equity incentive awards shall be granted pursuant to the inducement grant exception set forth in NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(c)(4).  Such equity incentive awards will not be issued under the Company’s existing equity incentive plans and therefore, the stock option granted will not qualify as an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).  These equity incentive grants shall vest in equal annual installments over a four year period commencing on the Effective Date.  You shall be eligible to receive additional stock options or other equity compensation in the future under the Company’s equity incentive plans as determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee from time to time.

 

d)                                     Vacation.  You will receive four (4) weeks of paid vacation per calendar year which shall accrue ratably on a monthly basis.

 

2

 

e)                                      Benefits.  You will be eligible to participate in all group health, dental, 401(k), and other insurance and/or benefit plans that the Company may offer to similarly situated executives of the Company from time to time on the same terms as offered to such other executives.

 

f)                                        Business Expenses.  The Company will reimburse you for all reasonable and usual business expenses incurred by you in the performance of your duties hereunder in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement policy.

 

4.                                       Termination.  Your employment with the Company may be terminated prior to the expiration of the Term as follows:

 

a)                                      Death.  This Agreement shall terminate automatically upon your death.

 

b)                                     Disability.  The Company may terminate your employment in accordance with applicable laws in the event that you shall be prevented, by illness, accident, disability or any other physical or mental condition (to be determined by means of a written opinion of a competent medical doctor chosen by mutual agreement of the Company and you or your personal representative(s)) from substantially performing your duties and responsibilities hereunder for one or more periods totaling one hundred and twenty (120) days in any twelve (12) month period.

 

c)                                      By the Company for Cause.  The Company may terminate your employment for “Cause” upon written notice to you.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean any of: (i) fraud, embezzlement or theft against the Company or any of its affiliates; (ii) you are convicted of, or plead guilty or no contest to, a felony; (iii) willful nonperformance by you (other than by reason of illness) of your material duties hereunder and failure to remedy such nonperformance within thirty (30) business days following written notice from the Board identifying the nonperformance and the actions required to cure it; or (iv) you commit an act of gross negligence, engage in willful misconduct or otherwise act with willful disregard for the Company’s best interests, and you fail to remedy such conduct within thirty (30) business days following written notice from the Board identifying the gross negligence, willful misconduct or willful disregard and the actions required to cure it (if such conduct can be cured).

 

d)                                     By the Company Other Than For Death, Disability or Cause.  The Company may terminate your employment other than for Cause, disability or death upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to you.

 

e)                                      By You For Good Reason or Any Reason.  You may terminate your employment at any time without Good Reason upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Company and with Good Reason as described in this Section 4(e).  For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean that any of the following occurs without your prior written consent: (i) a material adverse change in your title, position, duties or responsibilities; (ii)

 

3

 

a material reduction by the Company in your Base Salary or your target Annual Bonus opportunity in the total annual amount that you are then eligible to receive, unless such reduction is in connection with a proportionate reduction of compensation applicable to all other executive officers; (iii) any relocation of your principal place of business to a location more than 50 miles from the Company’s current executive offices in Lexington, MA; provided, however, that this clause (iii) will not apply to the extent that any new office location is less than 50 miles from your residence; or (iv) a material breach by the Company of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement. Before you may resign for Good Reason, (i) you must provide written notice to the Company describing the event, condition or conduct giving rise to Good Reason within 30 days of the initial occurrence of the event, condition or conduct; (ii) the Company must fail to remedy or cure the alleged Good Reason within the 30 day period after receipt of such notice; and (iii) you must resign effective not later than 30 days after the end of the cure period.

 

5.                                       Payment Upon Termination.  In the event that your employment with the Company terminates, you will be paid the following:

 

a)                                      Termination for Any Reason.  In the event that your employment terminates for any reason, the Company shall pay you for the following items that were earned and accrued but unpaid as of the date of your termination: (i) your Base Salary; (ii) a cash payment for all accrued, unused vacation calculated at your then Base Salary rate; (iii) reimbursement for any unpaid business expenses; and (iv) such other benefits and payments to which you may be entitled by law or pursuant to the benefit plans of the Company then in effect.  In addition, if your employment terminates due to your death, the Board shall determine the extent to which any of the individual performance objectives established by the Board pursuant to Section 3(b) above were met as of the time of your death.  If, based on that determination, the Board determines that a bonus is due, the Company shall pay your estate an amount equal to such bonus, pro-rated for the portion of the fiscal year elapsed as of the time of your death.

 

b)                                     Termination Without Cause or for Good Reason.  In addition to the payments provided for in Section 5(a), in the event that (i) the Company terminates your employment other than for death, disability or Cause pursuant to Section 4(d) or you terminate your employment for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4(e); (ii) you comply fully with all of your obligations under all agreements between the Company and you; and (iii) you execute, deliver to the Company, within 60 days of the termination of your employment, and do not revoke a general release (in a form acceptable to the Company) releasing and waiving any and all claims that you have or may have against the Company, its directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns with respect to your employment (other than any obligation of the Company set forth herein which specifically survives the termination of your employment), then the Company will provide you with twenty-four (24) months of severance pay based on your then current Base Salary minus withholdings as required by law. The foregoing severance shall be paid in equal installments over the severance period in accordance with the Company’s usual payroll schedule, commencing on the date that the release referred to above may no longer be revoked.  This Section 5(b) shall not apply during the one year period following a Change of

 

4

 

Control (as defined below), in which case Section 5(c) shall apply.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if any of the payments and benefits provided for in this Section 5(b) constitute non-qualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code and the sixty (60) day period in which you must execute the release begins in one calendar year and ends in another, the payments and benefits provided for in this Section 5(b) shall commence, be made or become effective in the later calendar year.

 

c)                                      Change of Control. In the event that (i) within one year from the date a Change of Control (as defined below) of the Company occurs, the Company (for purposes of this section, such term to include its successor) terminates your employment other than for Cause pursuant to Section 4(c), death or disability or you terminate your employment with Good Reason; (ii) you comply fully with all of your obligations under all agreements between the Company and you; and (iii) within 60 days of termination of your employment you execute and deliver to the Company and do not revoke a general release (in a form acceptable to the Company) releasing and waiving any and all claims that you have or may have against the Company and its directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns with respect to your employment (other than any obligation of the Company set forth herein which specifically survives the termination of your employment), then:

 

·                  the Company will pay you severance pay equal to the Applicable Number of Months based on your then current Base Salary (minus withholdings as required by law), with such severance to be paid in equal installments over the severance period in accordance with the Company’s usual payroll schedule, commencing on the date that the release referred to above may no longer be revoked.  The term “Applicable Number of Months” shall mean 12 months, if the Change of Control occurs prior to the six month anniversary of the Effective Date; 18 months, if the Change of Control occurs after the six month anniversary but prior to the twelve month anniversary of the Effective Date; and 24 months, if the Change of Control occurs after the 12 month anniversary of the Effective Date;

·                  the Company will pay you, on the first payroll date after the revocation period of the release set forth above expires, in a lump sum, the Applicable Multiple of your target annual bonus amount (minus withholdings as required by law)for the year in which the Change of Control occurs.  The term “Applicable Multiple” shall mean one times (1X), if the Change of Control occurs prior to the six month anniversary of the Effective Date; one and one-half times (1.5X), if the Change of Control occurs after the six month anniversary but prior to the twelve month anniversary of the Effective Date; and two times (2X), if the Change of Control occurs after the 12 month anniversary of the Effective Date;

·                  the Company will pay or reimburse you for the premiums for continued coverage for you and your eligible dependents in the same amounts and for the same coverage in effect immediately prior to your termination from employment, under the Company’s group health and dental plans until the earlier of: (i) twelve (12) months from the date of

 

5

 

termination of your employment; or (ii) the date you are provided with health and dental coverage by another employer’s health and dental plan (and, for purposes of clarity, if the Company is unable to extend coverage to you under its group health and dental plans due to your termination from active employment status, then, to receive this benefit, you must elect continuation coverage under COBRA and/or purchase an individual insurance policy, and the Company shall have no obligation to pay or reimburse insurance premiums or otherwise provide coverage if you fail to elect COBRA or obtain an individual policy); and

·                  all unvested outstanding stock options, restricted stock units and other equity incentives that were granted to you before the Change of Control occurred shall, without further action, become vested in full on the date that the release referred to above may no longer be revoked.

 

For purposes of this Agreement, “Change of Control” shall mean the first to occur of any of the following: (a) any “person” or “group” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) becomes the beneficial owner of a majority of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities with respect to the election of the Board of Directors of the Company; (b) any merger, consolidation or similar transaction involving the Company; other than a transaction in which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to the transaction hold immediately thereafter in the same proportion as immediately prior to the transaction not less than 50% of the combined voting power of the then voting securities with respect to the election of the Board of Directors of the resulting entity; (c) any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or (d) any other acquisition by a third party of all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company, as determined by the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion.  The payments, benefits and acceleration of vesting of stock options, restricted stock units and other equity incentives provided in this Section 5(c) shall override and replace with respect to you any Company wide policy with respect to payments, benefits and/or acceleration of vesting upon a Change of Control.  After the one year period following a Change of Control, this Section 5(c) shall no longer apply, and Section 5(b) shall continue to apply.  In the event that upon a Change of Control, the Company or the successor to or acquiror of the Company’s business (whether by sale of outstanding stock, merger, sale of substantially all the assets or otherwise) elects not to assume all the then unvested outstanding stock options, restricted stock units and other equity incentives that were granted to you before the Change of Control occurred, such securities shall immediately without further action become vested in full effective no later than the effective date of the Change of Control and you shall receive the value of such stock options, restricted stock units and other equity incentives as provided in the applicable acquisition agreement (or if no such provision is made, in the applicable equity incentive plan).

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if any of the payments and benefits provided for in this Section 5(c) constitute non-qualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A and the sixty (60) day period in which you must execute the release begins in one calendar year

 

6

 

and ends in another, the payments and benefits provided for in this Section 5(b) shall commence, be made or become effective in the later calendar year.

 

d)                                     Death/Disability.  In addition to the payments provided for in Section 5(a), in the event of your death or the termination of your employment due to your disability in accordance with Section 4(b) above, all unvested outstanding stock options, restricted stock units and other equity incentives that were held by you at the time of your death or termination of employment due to disability shall immediately become fully vested and, with respect to stock options, exercisable by you or your personal representatives, heirs or legatees, as the case may be, at any time prior to the expiration of one (1) year from the date of your death or disability, but in no event after the expiration of the term of the applicable equity award agreement.

 

6.                                       Nonsolicitation Covenant.  In exchange for the consideration provided by this Agreement, you shall not, for a period of one year following the termination of your employment with the Company for any reason, directly or indirectly, whether through your own efforts, or in any way assisting or employing the assistance of any other person or entity (including, without limitation, any consultant or any person employed by or associated with any entity with which you are employed or associated), recruit, solicit or induce (or in any way assist another in recruiting, soliciting or inducing) any employee or consultant of the Company to terminate his or her employment or other relationship with the Company.

 

7.                                       Assignment.  This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall bind and inure to the benefit of any successor of the Company by reorganization, merger or consolidation and any assignee of all or substantially all of its business and properties.  Neither this Agreement nor any rights or benefits hereunder may be assigned by you, except that, upon your death, your earned and unpaid economic benefits will be paid to your heirs or beneficiaries.

 

8.                                       Interpretation and Severability.  It is the express intent of the parties that (a) in case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad as to duration, geographical scope, activity or subject, such provision shall be construed by limiting and reducing it as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, so as to be enforceable to the fullest extent compatible with applicable law; and (b) in case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement cannot be so limited and reduced and for any reason is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the other provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

 

9.                                       Notices.  Any notice that you or the Company are required to give the other under this Agreement shall be given by personal delivery, recognized overnight courier service, or registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed in your case to you at your last address of record with the Company, or at such other place as you may from time to time designate in writing, and, in the case of the Company, to the Company at its principal office, or

 

7

 

at such other office as the Company may from time to time designate in writing.  The date of actual delivery of any notice under this Section 9 shall be deemed to be the date of receipt thereof.

 

10.                                 Waiver.  No consent to or waiver of any breach or default in the performance of any obligation hereunder shall be deemed or construed to be a consent to or waiver of any other breach or default in the performance of any of the same or any other obligations hereunder.  No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the waiving party.

 

11.                                 Complete Agreement; Modification.  This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes any previous oral or written communications, negotiations, representations, understandings, or agreements between them.  Any modification of this Agreement shall be effective only if set forth in a written document signed by you and a duly authorized officer of the Company.

 

12.                                 Headings.  The headings of the Sections hereof are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute a part, or affect the meaning, of this Agreement.

 

13.                                 Counterparts.  This Agreement may be signed in two (2) counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and both of which shall together constitute one agreement.

 

14.                                 Choice of Law; Jurisdiction.  This Agreement shall be deemed to have been made in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and the validity, interpretation and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of Massachusetts, without regard to conflict of law principles.  You hereby consent and submit without limitation to the jurisdiction of courts in Massachusetts in connection with any action arising out of this Agreement, and waive any right to object to any such forum as inconvenient or to object to venue in Massachusetts.  You agree that, in any action arising out of this Agreement, you will accept service of process by registered mail or the equivalent directed to your last known address or by such other means permitted by such court.

 

15.                                 Advice of Counsel; No Representations.  You acknowledge that you have been advised to review this Agreement with your own legal counsel, that prior to entering into this Agreement, you have had the opportunity to review this Agreement with your attorney, and that the Company has not made any representations, warranties, promises or inducements to you concerning the terms, enforceability or implications of this Agreement other than as are contained in this Agreement.

 

16.                                 I.R.C. § 409A.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, any payments and benefits provided under this Agreement that constitute “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and other guidance thereunder and any state law of similar effect (collectively, the “Section 409A”) shall not commence in connection with your termination of employment unless and until you have also

 

8

 

incurred a “separation from service” (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h) (the “Separation From Service”), unless the Company reasonably determines that such amounts may be provided to you without causing you to incur the additional 20% tax under Section 409A.

 

It is intended that each installment of severance pay provided for in this Agreement is a separate “payment” for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(i).  For the avoidance of doubt, it is intended that severance payments set forth in this Agreement satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exceptions from the application of Section 409A provided under Treasury Regulation Sections 1.409A-1(b)(4), 1.409A-1(b)(5), and 1.409A-1(b)(9).

 

If the Company (or, if applicable, the successor entity thereto) determines that any payments or benefits constitute “deferred compensation” under Section 409A and you are, on the termination of service, a “specified employee” of the Company or any successor entity thereto, as such term is defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then, solely to the extent necessary to avoid the incurrence of the adverse personal tax consequences under Section 409A, the timing of the payments and benefits shall be delayed until the earlier to occur of: (a) the date that is six months and one day after your Separation From Service, or (b) the date of your death (such applicable date, the “Specified Employee Initial Payment Date”).  On the Specified Employee Initial Payment Date, the Company (or the successor entity thereto, as applicable) shall (i) pay to you a lump sum amount equal to the sum of the payments and benefits that you would otherwise have received through the Specified Employee Initial Payment Date if the commencement of the payment of such amounts had not been so delayed pursuant to this Section and (ii) commence paying the balance of the payments and benefits in accordance with the applicable payment schedules set forth in this Agreement.

 

17.                                 Survival.  Provisions of this Agreement which by their terms must survive the termination of this Agreement in order to effectuate the intent of the parties will survive any such termination, whether by expiration of the Term, termination of your employment, or otherwise, for such period as may be appropriate under the circumstances. Such provisions include, without limitation, Sections 5 and 6 of this Agreement.

 

18.                                 Excise Tax-Related Provisions.  If any payment or benefit you would receive pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement (“Payment”) would (a) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (b) be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then such Payment shall be adjusted so that it would equal the Reduced Amount.  The “Reduced Amount” shall be the largest portion of the Payment that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax.  If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that the Payment equals the Reduced Amount, any such reduction will occur in a manner necessary to provide you with the greatest post-reduction economic benefit after taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate).  If more than one manner of reduction of Payments necessary to arrive at the Reduced Amount yields the greatest economic

 

9

 

benefit to you, the Payments will be reduced pro rata (the “Pro Rata Reduction Method”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Pro Rata Reduction Method would result in any portion of the Payment being subject to taxes pursuant to Section 409A of the Code, then the Pro Rata Reduction Method shall be modified so as to avoid the imposition of taxes pursuant to Section 409A of the Code as follows: (A) as a first priority, the modification shall preserve to the greatest extent possible, the greatest economic benefit for you as determined on an after-tax basis; (B) as a second priority, Payments that are contingent on future events (e.g., being terminated without Cause), shall be eliminated before Payments that are not contingent on future events; and (C) as a third priority, Payments that are “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code shall be reduced before Payments that are not “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.

 

19.                                 Legal Expenses.  The Company hereby agrees to reimburse you for your legal expenses in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement; provided, however, that in no event shall the amount reimbursed under this Section 19 exceed $10,000.  You shall submit the invoice for such legal services for reimbursement within 30 days of the Effective Date and the Company shall reimburse you within 30 days after your submission of such invoice.

AMAG Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby enters into this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, dated as of the date set forth below, with the Recipient named herein (the “Agreement”) and grants to the Recipient the Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) specified herein as an inducement grant pursuant to Rule 5635(c)(4) of the NASDAQ Listing Rules.

Restricted Stock Unit Agreement — Inducement Grant - Terms and Conditions

 

AMAG Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) agrees to award to the recipient specified on the cover page hereof (the “Recipient”), and the Recipient agrees to accept from the Company, the number of restricted stock units (the “RSUs”) specified on the cover page hereof representing an equivalent number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Underlying Shares”), on the following terms:

 

1.                                 Inducement Grant — Not Under 2007 Plan.  This Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as an inducement grant pursuant Rule 5635(c)(4) of the NASDAQ Listing Rules.  For the avoidance of doubt, the grant made pursuant to this Agreement is not issued under the Company’s Second Amended and Restated 2007 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time (the “2007 Plan”) and does not reduce the share reserve under the 2007 Plan.  However, for purposes of interpreting the applicable provisions of the grant made pursuant to this Agreement, the terms and the conditions of the 2007 Plan (other than those applicable to the share reserve) shall govern and apply to this grant as if such grant had actually been issued under the 2007 Plan.  Unless the context otherwise requires or except as defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meanings as in the 2007 Plan.

 

2.               Vesting if Business Relationship Continues.

 

(a)                                  Vesting Schedule.

 

(1)          If the Recipient has maintained continuously a Business Relationship with the Company through each date specified on the cover page hereof, a portion of the RSUs shall vest on such date in such amounts as are set forth opposite such date on the cover page hereof. Unless otherwise provided in the Employment Agreement, if the Recipient’s Business Relationship with the Company is terminated by the Company or by the Recipient for any reason, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, no additional RSUs shall become vested RSUs under any circumstances with respect to the Recipient and any unvested RSUs shall be forfeited.

 

(2)          Notwithstanding Section 2(a)(1), under certain circumstances set forth in the Employment Agreement and subject to compliance by the Recipient with the requirements of the Employment Agreement related to such circumstances, the vesting of unvested RSUs may be accelerated as provided in the Employment Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the RSUs constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations and other guidance thereunder and any state law of similar effect (collectively, “Section 409A”), and the sixty (60) day period in 

 

 

which the Recipient must execute the release required under the Employment Agreement begins in one calendar year and ends in another, the Underlying Shares shall be issued in the later calendar year.

 

(3)          Any determination under this Agreement as to Business Relationship status or other matters referred to above shall be made in good faith by the Board, whose decision shall be final and binding on all parties.

 

“Business Relationship” means service to the Company or its successor in the capacity of an employee, officer, director, consultant, or advisor.

 

“Employment Agreement” shall mean the Employment Agreement, dated as of May 6, 2012, as amended from time to time, by and between the Company and the Recipient.

 

(b)                                 Termination of Business Relationship.  For purposes hereof, a Business Relationship shall not be considered as having terminated during any  military leave, sick leave, or other leave of absence if approved in writing by the Company and if such written approval, or applicable law, contractually obligates the Company to continue the Business Relationship of the Recipient after the approved period of absence (an “Approved Leave of Absence”).  In the event of an Approved Leave of Absence, vesting of RSUs shall be suspended (and all subsequent vesting dates shall be postponed by the length of the period of the Approved Leave of Absence) unless otherwise provided in the Company’s written approval of the leave of absence that specifically refers to this Agreement.  For purposes hereof, a Business Relationship shall include a consulting arrangement between the Recipient and the Company that immediately follows termination of employment, but only if so stated in a written consulting agreement executed by the Company that specifically refers to this Agreement.

 

(c)                                  Acceleration.  The Board may at any time provide that the RSUs awarded pursuant to this Agreement shall become immediately exercisable in full or in part, shall be free of some or all restrictions, or otherwise realizable in full or in part, as the case may be, despite the fact that the foregoing actions may cause the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code if a change in control of the Company occurs.

 

3.                                       Issuance of Underlying Shares.  With respect to any RSUs that become vested RSUs pursuant to Section 2, subject to Sections 5, 6 and 8, the Company shall issue to the Recipient, as soon as practicable following the applicable vesting date (as specified on the cover page hereof with respect to any RSUs that become vested pursuant to Section 2(a)(1) and as specified in Section 2(a)(2) with respect to any RSUs that become vested pursuant to Section 2(a)(2), if applicable), the number of Underlying Shares equal to the number of RSUs vesting on such vesting date, provided that, if the vesting date of any portion of the RSUs shall occur during either a regularly scheduled or special “blackout period” of the Company wherein Recipient is precluded from selling shares of the Company’s Common Stock, the receipt of the corresponding Underlying Shares issuable with respect to such vesting date pursuant to this Agreement shall be deferred until after the expiration of such blackout period, unless such Underlying Shares are 

 

2

 

covered by a previously established Company-approved 10b5-1 plan of the Recipient, in which case the Underlying Shares shall be issued in accordance with the terms of such 10b5-1 plan.  The Underlying Shares the receipt of which was deferred as provided above shall be issued to Recipient as soon as practicable after the expiration of the blackout period.  Notwithstanding the above, subject to Section 8, (i) in no event may the Underlying Shares with respect to any RSUs that become vested pursuant to Section 2(a)(1) be issued to the Recipient later than the later of: (a) December 31st of the calendar year in which vesting occurs, or (b) the fifteenth (15th) day of the third calendar month following such vesting date, and (ii) in no event may the Underlying Shares with respect to any RSUs that become vested pursuant to Section 2(a)(2) be issued to the Recipient later than the 90th day following the Recipient’s Separation from Service; provided that the Recipient acknowledges and agrees that if the Underlying Shares are issued to the Recipient pursuant to this sentence while either a regularly scheduled or special “blackout period” is still in effect with respect to the Company or the Recipient, neither the Company nor the Recipient may sell any shares of the Company’s Common Stock to satisfy any Tax Obligations except in compliance with the Company’s insider trading policies and requirements and applicable laws.  The form of such issuance (e.g., a stock certificate or electronic entry evidencing such Underlying Shares) shall be determined by the Company.

 

4.                                       Restrictions on Transfer.  The Recipient shall not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, encumber or dispose of all or any of his or her RSUs.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, the Recipient may designate a third party who, in the event of the Recipient’s death, shall thereafter be entitled to receive any distributions of Underlying Shares to which the Recipient is entitled at the time of his or her death pursuant to this Agreement.

 

5.                                       Compliance with Law.  The Recipient’s Award, and the issuance of the Underlying Shares pursuant to the Award, must comply with all applicable laws and regulations governing the Award, and with the applicable regulations of any stock exchange on which the Underlying Shares may be listed for trading at the time of issuance.  The Company shall not issue the Underlying Shares to the Recipient if the Company determines that such issuance would not be in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations (in which case issuance of the Underlying Shares shall occur at the earliest date at which the Company determines that delivery of the Underlying Shares will not cause any such violation or non-compliance).

 

6.                                       Withholding Taxes.  All grants made pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to withholding of all applicable federal, state, local and foreign income, employment, payroll, social insurance or other taxes resulting from the issuance or vesting of the RSUs or the delivery of the Underlying Shares (the “Tax Obligations”).  The Recipient agrees to pay to the Company, or otherwise make adequate provisions satisfactory to the Company for the payment of, any sums required to satisfy the Tax Obligations at the time such Tax Obligations arise.  The Company may, in its discretion, and the Recipient hereby agrees that and authorizes the Company on its behalf to, withhold, sell, and/or arrange for the sale of such number of Underlying Shares otherwise issuable to the Recipient pursuant to this Agreement as deemed necessary by the Company, in its sole discretion, to ensure that the Tax Obligations can be satisfied, including the right to sell shares having a fair market value greater than the Tax Obligations; provided, however, that for this purpose the Tax Obligations shall be computed 

 

3

 

based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal, state, local, and foreign income and employment tax purposes; provided, further, however, that if the Company decides to satisfy the Tax Obligations by withholding shares otherwise issuable hereunder (rather than by selling or arranging for the sale of shares on behalf of the Recipient), the Company shall not withhold shares having a fair market value greater than the Tax Obligations.  The Recipient further agrees that, if the Company elects not to withhold, sell, or arrange for the sale of the amount of Underlying Shares sufficient to satisfy the full amount of the Tax Obligations, the Company may withhold such shortfall in cash from wages or other remuneration or the Recipient will deliver to the Company, in cash, the amount of such shortfall.  The Recipient further agrees that the Recipient shall not sell any of the Underlying Shares during the period of time that the Company is acting on the Recipient’s behalf to withhold, sell, and/or arrange for the sale of the number of Underlying Shares necessary to satisfy the Recipient’s Tax Obligations.  Notwithstanding the preceding sentences, the Recipient may, by written notice to the Company at least ten business days before the applicable vesting date specified on the cover page hereof, elect to pay in cash the applicable Tax Obligations, or make other appropriate provisions acceptable to the Company for the payment of the applicable Tax Obligations, including the withholding from any payroll or other amounts due to the Recipient.  The Company may refuse to issue the Underlying Shares if the Recipient fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax Obligations as described in this Section.

 

Recipient further agrees to take any further actions and execute any additional documents as may be necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section 6 and the Recipient hereby grants the Company a irrevocable power of attorney to sign such additional documents on the Recipient’s behalf if the Company is unable after reasonable efforts to obtain Recipient’s signature on such additional documents.  This power of attorney is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable by the Recipient.

 

7.                                       Provision of Documentation to Recipient.  By signing the cover page of this Agreement, the Recipient acknowledges receipt of a copy of this entire Agreement, a copy of the 2007 Plan, and a copy of the 2007 Plan’s related prospectus.

 

8.                                       Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.  The RSUs granted hereunder are intended to avoid the potential adverse tax consequences to the Recipient of Section 409A, and the Board may make such modifications to this Agreement as it deems necessary or advisable to avoid such adverse tax consequences.  If the RSUs constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, any issuance of Underlying Shares under this Agreement because of a termination of the Business Relationship (i) will only occur if such termination is also a “separation from service” (as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)) under Section 409A (“Separation from Service”), and (ii) will be delayed until the earlier of (a) the date that is six months and one day after the Recipient’s Separation from Service or (b) the date of the Recipient’s death if the Recipient is, upon such Separation from Service, a “specified employee” of the Company or any successor entity thereto, as such term is defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code.

9.                                       Rights as Stockholder.  The Recipient shall have no voting or any other rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to any RSUs covered by this Agreement until the issuance of the Underlying Shares.

 

10.                                 Miscellaneous.

 

(a)                                  Notices.  All notices hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when sent by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, if to the Recipient, to the address set forth on the cover page hereof or at the address shown on the records of the Company, and if to the Company, to the Company’s principal executive offices, attention of the Corporate Secretary.

 

(b)                                 Entire Agreement; Modification.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all proposals, written or oral, and all other communications between the parties relating to the subject matter of this Agreement.  This Agreement may be modified, amended or rescinded only by a written agreement executed by both parties signatories to this Agreement.  In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the Plan, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

 

(c)                                  Fractional RSUs or Underlying Shares.  All fractional RSUs or Underlying Shares resulting from the adjustment provisions contained in the 2007 Plan shall be rounded down to the nearest whole unit or share.

 

(d)                                 Severability.  The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall in no way affect the validity, legality or enforceability of any other provision.

 

(e)                                  Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, subject to the limitations set forth herein.

 

(f)                                    Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Delaware without giving effect to the principles of the conflicts of laws thereof.

 

(g)                                 No Obligation to Continue Business Relationship.  Neither the 2007 Plan, nor this Agreement, nor any provision hereof imposes any obligation on the Company to continue a Business Relationship with the Recipient.

 

(h)                                 For purposes of Sections 2, 6 and 10(g), the “Company” shall mean the Company as defined in Section 9(a) of the 2007 Plan.
