Delegation of Authority to Grant Awards contract clause examples

"Granting authority" means the Board or any appropriate committee authorized to grant and amend awards under this Program and to exercise other powers assigned to the granting authority.

Survival of Authority and Awards. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the authority of the Board and the Administrator under this Section 16 and to otherwise administer the Plan will extend beyond the date of this Plan’s termination. In addition, termination of this Plan will not affect the rights of Participants with respect to Awards previously granted to them, and all unexpired Awards will continue in force and effect after termination of this Plan except as they may lapse or be terminated by their own terms and conditions.

The Committee may delegate to one or more officers or managers of the Company, or a committee of such officers or managers, the authority, subject to such terms and limitations as the Committee shall determine, to grant Awards to, or to cancel, modify, waive rights with respect to, alter, discontinue, suspend or terminate Awards held by, employees who are not officers or directors of the Company for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; provided, however, that any delegation to management shall conform with the requirements of the corporate law of New Jersey and with the requirements, if any, of the New York Stock Exchange, in either case as in effect from time to time.

Manner of Exercise of Committee Authority; Delegation. At any time that a member of the Committee is not a Qualified Member, any action of the Committee relating to an Award granted or to be granted to a Participant who is then subject to section 16 of the Exchange Act in respect of the Company, or relating to a [Section 162(m)] Award, may be taken either # by a subcommittee, designated by the Committee, composed solely of two or more Qualified Members, or # by the Committee but with each such member who is not a Qualified Member abstaining or recusing himself or herself from such action; provided, however, that, upon such abstention or recusal, the Committee remains composed solely of two or more Qualified Members. Such action, authorized by such a subcommittee or by the Committee upon the abstention or recusal of such non-Qualified Member(s), shall be the action of the Committee for purposes of this Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, the full Board may take any action relating to an Award granted or to be granted to an Eligible Person who is then subject to section 16 of the Exchange Act in respect of the Company, provided that such Award is not a [Section 162(m)] Award. The Committee may delegate to a member of the Board, officers or managers of the Company or any Subsidiary, or committees thereof, the authority, subject to such terms as the Committee shall determine, to perform such functions of the Committee under the Plan, including administrative functions, as the Committee may determine, to the extent that such delegation will not violate state corporate law, will not result in the loss of an exemption under Rule 16b-3(d)(1) for Awards granted to Eligible Persons subject to section 16 of the Exchange Act in respect of the Company and will not cause Awards intended to be [Section 162(m)] Awards to fail to so qualify. The Committee may appoint agents to assist it in administering this Plan.

Delegation; Expenses. The appropriate officer(s) of the Company as designated by the Plan Administrator are authorized to act on behalf of the Plan Administrator for the day-to-day administration of the Plan, subject to the authority of the Plan Administrator. Expenses of the administration of the Plan may be borne by the Company or may be deducted from Participants’ Accounts at the sole discretion of the Plan Administrator.

Non-Exclusivity. The Plan does not limit the authority of the Company, the Board, or the Committee, to grant awards or authorize any other compensation to any person under any other plan or authority.

Section # Eligibility. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee will have full and final authority, in its discretion, to grant Awards as described herein and to determine the Eligible Individuals to whom Awards will be granted.

This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Company and constitutes the valid and binding obligation of Company, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.
