This excerpt taken from the ROST DEF 14A filed Apr 14, 2008. Share Counting and Adjustments
for Capital Structure Changes. If any
award granted under the 2008 Plan expires or otherwise terminates for any reason
without having been exercised or settled in full, or if shares subject to
forfeiture or repurchase are forfeited or repurchased by the Company for not
more than the participant’s purchase price, any such shares reacquired or
subject to a terminated award will again become available for issuance under the
2008 Plan. Shares will not be treated as having been issued under the 2008 Plan
and will therefore not reduce the number of shares available for issuance to the
extent an award is settled in cash or such shares are withheld or reacquired by
the Company in satisfaction of a tax withholding obligation.
The number of shares available under the 2008 Plan will be reduced upon the exercise of a stock appreciation right only by the number of shares actually issued. If shares are tendered in payment of the exercise price of an option, the number of shares available under the 2008 Plan will be reduced only by the net number of shares issued. Appropriate adjustments will be made to the number of shares authorized under the 2008 Plan, to the numerical limits on certain types of awards described below, to share limits on non-employee director awards described in this proposal, and to outstanding awards in the event of any change in our common stock through merger, consolidation, reorganization, reincorporation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares or similar change in our capital structure, or if we make a distribution to our stockholders in a form other than common stock (excluding normal cash dividends) that has a material effect on the fair market value of our common stock. In such circumstances, the Compensation Committee also has the discretion under the 2008 Plan to adjust the terms of outstanding awards as it deems appropriate. |
