Each RSU shall represent the conditional right to receive, upon settlement of the RSU, one share of Bristol-Myers Squibb Common Stock (“Common Stock”) or, at the discretion of the Company, the cash equivalent thereof (subject to any tax withholding as described in Section 4). The purpose of such Award is to motivate and retain you as an employee of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company, to encourage you to continue to give your best efforts for the Company’s future success, to increase your proprietary interest in the Company, and to align your interests with the interests of the Company’s shareholders. Except as may be required by law, you are not required to make any payment (other than payments for taxes pursuant to Section 4 hereof) or provide any other monetary consideration.
Restricted Stock Units Award. The Company hereby grants to you an aggregate of restricted stock units (individually, an "RSU," and collectively, "RSUs") as more specifically set forth in Section 2(e). Each RSU entitles you to receive one share of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Company (the "Shares") at such time as the restrictions described in Section 2(d)(ii) lapse as described in Section 2(e).
Award of Restricted Stock Units. The Corporation hereby grants to the Participant on Award Date < # of RSUs> Restricted Stock Units. Each Restricted Stock Unit is a contingent right to receive a Restricted Stock Unit Share, subject to the restrictions and other terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement. The Participant’s Award of Restricted Stock Units will be recorded in a memorandum account. The Participant will have no beneficial ownership interest in the Common Stock of the Corporation represented by the Restricted Stock Units awarded until the Participant receives a distribution of Restricted Stock Unit Shares.
Award of Restricted Stock Units. The Committee may, from time to time, make Awards of Restricted Stock Units. Any such Restricted Stock Units will be recorded in a memorandum account, and I will have no beneficial ownership interest in the Common Stock of the Corporation represented by the Restricted Stock Units awarded.
Award of Restricted Stock Units. A record of the Units awarded hereunder (the “Units”) shall be maintained for the Employee with the administrator designated by the Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”), subject to terms deemed appropriate by the Committee to reflect the restrictions applicable to such Award (the “Restrictions”), until all the Restrictions specifically set forth in this Agreement with respect to the Units shall expire or be canceled. Upon the lapse of all Restrictions relating to any Units, the Company shall deliver Shares underlying the vested Units. The Units shall have no voting rights. The Units shall be credited with Dividend Equivalents. A “Dividend Equivalent” is an amount equal to the cash dividend payable per Share, if any, multiplied by the number of Shares then underlying the Award with respect to any cash dividends declared or paid by the Company while the Award is outstanding. Dividend Equivalents credited with respect to Shares underlying the Units # shall not be paid to the Employee until the Restrictions with respect to the Units upon which such Dividend Equivalents were credited, expire or are canceled, # shall be paid with respect to any Units which vest along with the Shares that are delivered, and # shall immediately and automatically be cancelled with respect to Units which are forfeited or canceled. No interest will be accrued, credited or paid on Dividend Equivalents.
As of the Effective Date, the RSU grant shall be modified to vest on December 31, 2020.
Restricted Stock Units. Each Outside Director will receive shares of Common Stock for their Restricted Stock Units on the fifth business day of the calendar quarter following the quarter of his or her separation from Board service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may at any time deny the payment of, or reduce the amount of, the Restricted Stock Units of any Participant if, in the opinion of the Board, such Participant was engaged in an act of misconduct or otherwise engaged in conduct detrimental to the Company.
Restricted Stock Units. The Administrator is authorized to grant Restricted Stock Units to any Eligible Individual. The number and terms and conditions of Restricted Stock Units shall be determined by the Administrator.
