Performance Cash Awards contract clause examples

The Executive is awarded the target number of Performance Cash units specified in the Acceptance Certificate (the “Target Performance Cash”). The Executive will be entitled to a cash payment of US $100 for each vested Performance Cash unit.

Cash Awards. The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority under the Plan to make Cash Awards which are to vest in one or more installments over the Participant’s continued Service with the Corporation or upon the attainment of specified performance goals. Each such Cash Award shall be evidenced by one or more documents in the form approved by the Plan Administrator; provided however, that each such document shall comply with the terms specified below.

Cash Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant Cash Awards, on a free-standing basis or as an element of or supplement to, or in lieu of, any other Award under this Plan to Eligible Persons in such amounts and subject to such other terms (including the achievement of performance goals and/or future service requirements) as the Committee in its discretion determines to be appropriate.

The Administrator is authorized to grant Performance Awards to any Eligible Individual. The value of Performance Awards may be linked to any one or more of the Performance Criteria or other specific criteria determined by the Administrator, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Administrator.

Performance Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant Performance Awards to any Eligible Person payable in cash, Shares, or other Awards, on terms and conditions established by the Committee, subject to the provisions of Section 8 if and to the extent that the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, determine that an Award shall be subject to those provisions. The performance criteria to be achieved during any Performance Period and the length of the Performance Period shall be determined by the Committee upon the grant of each Performance Award. Except as provided in Section 9 or as may be provided in an Award Agreement, Performance Awards shall be distributed only after the end of the relevant Performance Period. The performance goals to be achieved for each Performance Period shall be conclusively determined by the Committee and may be based upon the criteria set forth in Section 8(b), or any other criteria that the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine should be used for that purpose. The amount of the Award to be distributed shall be conclusively determined by the Committee. Performance Awards may be paid in a lump sum or in installments following the close of the Performance Period or, in accordance with procedures established by the Committee, on a deferred basis, in each case in a manner that does not violate the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Dividend Equivalents credited in connection with a Performance Award shall be subject to restrictions and risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Performance Award with respect to which such Dividend Equivalents have been credited.

Performance Awards. Subject to the limitations set forth in paragraph # hereof, the Committee may in its discretion grant Performance Awards to any Eligible Person and shall evidence such grant in an Award Agreement that is delivered to the Participant which sets forth the terms and conditions of the Award.

Performance Awards. In the case of a Performance Award, the deferral election must be received by the Company no later than six (6) months before the end of the applicable Performance Period, provided that # the Participant was employed continuously from the later of the first day of the Performance Period or the date on which the Performance Measure was established through the date of election, # the election to defer is made before such compensation has become readily ascertainable (i.e., substantially certain to be paid), and # the Performance Period is at least twelve (12) months in length and the Performance Measure was established within ninety (90) days after commencement of the Performance Period.

Performance Awards. Each Performance Award granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Agreement that # provides for the payment of cash and/or issuance of Shares to a Participant contingent upon the attainment of one or more specified Performance Goals, and # contains such other terms and conditions as may be determined by the Committee. For purposes of [Section 5.1(b)] hereof, a Performance Award shall be deemed to cover a number of Shares equal to the maximum number of Shares that may be issued upon payment of the Award. The maximum cash amount payable to any Employee pursuant to all Performance Awards granted to an Employee during a fiscal year shall not exceed $250,000.

Cash-Based Awards. The maximum aggregate amount awarded or credited with respect to Cash-Based Awards to any one Participant in any one Plan Year may not exceed the value of ten million dollars ($10,000,000) determined as of the date of vesting or payout, as applicable, plus the amount of the Participant’s unused applicable Annual Award Limit for Cash-Based Awards as of the close of the previous Plan Year.

Cash-Based Awards. The Committee is hereby authorized to grant Cash-Based Awards to Grantees denominated in cash in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may determine. Each such Cash-Based Award shall specify a payment amount, payment range or a value determined with respect to the Fair Market Value of the Shares, as determined by the Committee. The Committee may designate Cash-Based Awards as “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 162(m) by conditioning the Award or the lapse of restrictions on the achievement of performance goals in accordance with Section 11(a) and by administering the Award to otherwise comply with the requirements of Section 11 and Code Section 162(m). The Committee is authorized at any time during or after a Performance Period to exercise negative discretion to reduce or eliminate a Cash-Based Award of any Grantee for any reason in its discretion, including, without limitation, changes in the position or duties of any Grantee with the Company or any Subsidiary during or after a Performance Period, whether due to any termination of employment (including death, disability, retirement, voluntary termination or termination with or without cause) or otherwise.
