Discretion. Any other provision in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, # the Committee shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to pay to any Participant an annual incentive payment for such year in an amount based on individual performance or any other criteria or the occurrence of any such event that the Committee shall deem appropriate, and # the Committee may provide for a minimum incentive payment to any or all, or any class of, Participants in respect of any calendar year, regardless of whether any applicable performance objectives are attained.
Administrator. The Committee (or another committee or a subcommittee of the Board assuming the functions of the Committee under the Plan) shall administer the Plan (except as otherwise permitted herein) and, unless otherwise determined by the Board, shall consist solely of two or more Non-Employee Directors appointed by and holding office at the pleasure of the Board, each of whom is intended to qualify as a "non-employee director" as defined by Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act and an "independent director'' under the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted or traded, in each case, to the extent required under such provision; provided, however, that any action taken by the Committee shall be valid and effective, whether or not members of the Committee at the time of such action are later determined not to have satisfied the requirements for membership set forth in this Section 11.1 or otherwise provided in the Company's charter or Bylaws or any charter of the Committee. Except as may otherwise be provided in any charter of the Committee, appointment of Committee members shall be effective upon acceptance of appointment, Committee members may resign at any time by delivering written or electronic notice to the Board, and vacancies in the Committee may only be filled by the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, # the full Board, acting by a majority of its members in office, shall conduct the general administration of the Plan with respect to Awards granted to Non-Employee Directors and # the Board or Committee may delegate its authority hereunder to the extent permitted by Section 11.6 hereof.
Administrator. The Company’s Vice President, Pay and Benefits (or any successor thereto) is the “administrator” of the Plan. Except as expressly otherwise provided herein, the Plan Administrator shall control and manage the operation and administration of this Plan and make all decisions and determinations.
Unless otherwise provided by the Board under this Plan, the general administration of the Plan and the duty to carry out its provisions is vested in the CEO, who is generally referred to herein as the Administrator. The CEO may delegate such duty or any portion thereof to any person and may from time to time revoke such authority and delegate it to another person. Any such delegation to any employee or officer of the Company will automatically terminate when he or she ceases to be an employee or officer. No person may act as the Administrator in connection with any decision that directly affects his or her own benefit under the Plan.
Administrator. The Plan shall be administered by the Board or a Committee appointed by the Board, which Committee shall be constituted to comply with Applicable Laws.
Any action on matters within the discretion of the Committee, including but not limited to, the amount of Severance Pay conferred upon a Participant, shall be final and conclusive as to all Eligible Employees and other persons claiming rights under the Plan. The Committee shall exercise all of the powers, duties and responsibilities set forth hereunder in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, the Committee shall have the sole discretion to interpret the terms of the Plan included but not limited to, whether a termination is voluntarily or involuntary, whether a Participant’s termination is for Cause or whether a Participant could have been terminated for Cause, whether a Participant is offered a Comparable Position, and whether Severance Pay shall be payable to any Participant under this Plan.
Negative Discretion. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 9, the Committee retains the discretion to reduce the amount of any Long-Term Incentive Bonus, including a reduction of such amount to zero. By way of illustration, and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Committee may, in its discretion, determine # not to grant a pro-rated Award Opportunity pursuant to Section 9.A above, # not to adjust an outstanding Award Opportunity pursuant to Section 9.B above, # to grant a pro-rated Award Opportunity in a smaller amount than would otherwise be provided by Section 9.A above, or # to adjust an outstanding Award Opportunity to produce a smaller Long-Term Incentive Award than would otherwise be provided by Section 9.B above.
Committee Discretion. The severance benefits as described in this Article 3 may be increased or decreased by the Committee in its absolute discretion. Such adjustments may be applied selectively with respect to one or more individual participants.
Committee Discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at or prior to the time of vesting, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may reduce the number of Restricted Stock Units that otherwise would vest according to this Agreement, or eliminate the Award in full. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may treat Participant differently than other individuals for these purposes. Any such determination by the Committee shall be final and binding on Participant. Under no circumstances shall the Committee have discretion to increase the award to Participant in excess of the number of Units that would have been awarded at vesting based on this Paragraph 4 (excluding adjustments required by [Section 3(c)] and/or Section 11 of the Plan).
Committee Discretion. In all cases the Committee may: # reduce or eliminate the amount of any payment under the Plan that would otherwise be made to any Participant, and # determine that an amount shall be paid under the Plan that is greater than what would apply under the applicable performance goals, based on individual performance or any other criteria that the Committee deems appropriate.
