On July 27, 2012, the Company adopted its 2012 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan allows for the use of cash and/or restricted stock incentive awards to eligible executives, managers and other eligible key employees based on the achievement of pre-established performance goals for annual performance periods commencing on or after January 1, 2012. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors administers the Plan, subject to the direction of the Board of Directors, and will designate the eligible employees, who will participate in the Plan for a specified performance period. The Plan was adopted pursuant to the Company's 2009 Equity Compensation Plan, which was previously approved by shareholders. Participants are not eligible for any award under the Plan, until the end of the performance period, which is December 31, 2012.
Under the Plan, in the event that a participant’s employment is terminated by the Company or any of its subsidiaries for “cause”, or by the participant without “good reason” (as such terms are defined in the Plan), the participant is not entitled to the payment of any cash award previously declared that has not been paid, forfeits all shares of unvested restricted stock, and will not be entitled to any award for the period in which such termination of employment occurs.
In the event that the a participant’s employment is terminated by the Company or any of its subsidiaries without “cause”, by the participant for “good reason” (as such terms are defined in the Plan), or due to the participant’s death, disability or retirement, the participant is entitled to previously declared cash awards, will become vested in all shares of restricted stock that have not yet vested (or will continue to vest in such shares in accordance with the terms and conditions of the participant’s restricted stock agreement), and is entitled to a pro rata portion of any awards for the period in which such termination occurs.
In the event of a “change in control” of the Company (as defined in the Plan) each participant is entitled to the payment of a pro rata portion of the award for the period in which the change in control occurs, cash awards that have not yet been paid for the period ending prior to the effective date of the change in control and, to the extent provided in the applicable restricted stock agreement, all shares of restricted stock fully vest and become nonforfeitable.
The foregoing description of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Plan, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
