Cashless Exercise
Cashless Exercise contract clause examples

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Grant Agreement or the Plan, the Stock Options may be exercised only by a “cashless exercise” method by which the Company’s designated broker, upon receipt of the Employee’s written exercise request, shall pay the Company the Grant Price for the total number of Shares to be exercised and sell all such Shares at the then current trading price. The Company will not accept funds to exercise the Stock Options from any other source, and the broker will not accept instructions to sell fewer than all of the Shares exercised.

This Stock Option may be exercised through a broker designated by the Company or by any other method the Committee has approved; provided, however, that no such exercise shall be with respect to fewer than twenty-five (25) Shares or the remaining Shares covered by the Stock Option if less than twenty-five. The exercise must be accompanied by the payment of the full Grant Price of such Shares. Payment may be in cash or Shares or a combination thereof to the extent permissible under applicable law, or a broker-assisted cashless exercise; provided, however, that any payment in Shares shall be in strict compliance with all procedural rules established by the Committee.
