4. | Continued Employment. Subject to the terms and conditions outlined under Section 5, this Performance Award is granted on the condition that you remain employed by the Company from the Grant Date through the entire Performance Period. You will not have any right to payment of any award unless and until all terms, conditions, and provisions of the Performance Award program that affect you have been complied with as specified herein, including |
certification of the final award amount by the Committee. Your Performance Awards, however, shall not impose upon the Company any obligation to retain you in its employ for any given period or upon any specific terms of employment.
5. | Termination Due to Retirement, Layoff, Disability, or Death. In the event your employment is terminated by reason of retirement, layoff, disability, or death, you shall continue to be eligible to participate in the Performance Period, provided you were on the active payroll on the Grant Date. Your Performance Award payout will be prorated based on the number of full and partial calendar months you spent on the active payroll during the Performance Period. Payment for the award will be made at the same time as payment would have been made had you not had a termination of employment. For purposes of this award, “retirement” means a voluntary termination of employment under the conditions that satisfy the definition of “retirement” under the terms of a defined benefit pension plan maintained by the Company or one of its subsidiaries in which you participate. If you are not eligible to participate in such a defined benefit pension plan, “retirement” means termination of employment voluntarily by you after you have attained either (i) age 55 with 10 years of service, or (ii) age 62 with one year of service. For purposes of this award, “disability” means a disability entitling you to benefits under any long-term disability policy sponsored by the Company or one of its subsidiaries. |
6. | Forfeiture Upon Other Terminations. In the event your employment is terminated prior to payment of the Performance Award for any reason (including for cause and resignation) other than those reasons described in Section 5, the Performance Award granted hereunder shall immediately be forfeited by you and canceled. |
7. | Leave of Absence. Unless otherwise required by law, in the event you have an authorized leave of absence at any time during the Performance Period which absence extends beyond three full calendar months (including any absence that began before the Grant Date), your Performance Award payout will be prorated based on the number of full and partial calendar months you spent on the active payroll during the Performance Period. |
8. | Form and Timing of Payment of Performance Awards. Any payment of the Performance Awards shall be made in either cash or shares of Boeing stock, at the Committee’s discretion. The Performance Award payment shall be made within a reasonable time following the end of the Performance Period. For certain eligible participants, amounts to be paid in connection with Performance Awards may be deferred in accordance with the Company’s deferred compensation plan then in place. |
The Company will deduct from your Performance Award distribution any withholding or other taxes required by law and may deduct any amounts due from you to the Company or to any subsidiary of the Company. In the event of a stock distribution, shares will be in a number equal to the whole number of shares that could be purchased with the total Performance Award cash payout, based on the average of the high and low per share trading prices for the common stock of the Company as reported by The Wall Street Journal on the date of distribution, or by such other source as the Company deems reliable, after reduction to pay the applicable withholding amounts. Fractional share values will be applied to Federal income tax withholding.
9. | Transferability. This Performance Award is not transferable except by will or by laws of descent and distribution. You may designate a beneficiary to receive your award in the event of your death. |
10. | Successors. All obligations of the Company under the Performance Award program shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, or consolidation, or otherwise, of all or substantially all the business and/or assets of the Company. |
11. | Clawback and Forfeiture Policy. |
