This excerpt taken from the VZ DEF 14A filed Mar 23, 2009. Amendment or Termination of the 2009 STIP Unless it is terminated earlier, the 2009 STIP will remain in effect until the close of business on the date of Verizons annual meeting of shareholders in the year 2019, at which time the right to grant awards under the 2009 STIP will terminate. Before that date, the Committee may amend, suspend or terminate the 2009 STIP in whole or in part. Any amendment or revision that would cause the 2009 STIP to fail to comply with any requirement of applicable law, regulation or rule if it were not approved by shareholders will not be effective unless approved by Verizons shareholders.
If certain extraordinary gains and losses, impairments and nonrecurring events affect the Company, or if there is a change in applicable laws, regulations or accounting principles, the Committee will adjust the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, awards under the plan to prevent an increase or decrease in the benefits or potential benefits intended to be available under the 2009 STIP.
