Contract Categories: Human Resources › Bonus & Incentive Agreements
Summary

This amendment updates the terms of Long-Term Incentive Award Agreements for U.S. employees (Vice President and above) and directors of LII. It clarifies what happens to performance share units (PSUs), restricted stock units (RSUs), and stock appreciation rights (SARs) if an employee or director is terminated for cause, not for cause, or resigns. If terminated for cause, all awards are cancelled immediately. If the employee or director resigns or is terminated not for cause, RSUs and PSUs are cancelled, but earned SARs remain exercisable for 90 days, after which any remaining SARs are cancelled.
