9.

Leaves of Absence

 

For purposes of this Option, your employment with the Company does not terminate when you go on a bona fide leave of absence that was approved by the Company in writing, if the terms of the leave provide for continued employment crediting, or when continued employment crediting is required by applicable law. Your employment with the

 

6



 

 

 

 

Company terminates in any event when the approved leave ends unless you immediately return to active work.

 

The Company determines which leaves count for this purpose (along with determining the effect of a leave of absence on vesting of the Option), and when your employment terminates for all purposes under the Plan.

 

 

 

 

10.

Notice of Exercise

 

When you wish to exercise this Option, you must notify the Company by filing a “Notice of Exercise” form at the address given on the form. Your notice must specify how many Shares you wish to purchase. Your notice must also specify how your Shares should be registered (in your name only or in your and your spouse’s names as community property or as joint tenants with right of survivorship). The notice will be effective when it is received by the Company.

 

If someone else wants to exercise this Option after your death, that person must prove to the Company’s satisfaction that he or she is entitled to do so.

 

 

 

 

11.

Form of Payment

 

When you submit your notice of exercise, you must include payment of the Exercise Price for the Shares you are purchasing. Payment may be made in one (or a combination) of the following forms:

 

·      Cash, your personal check, a cashier’s check or a money order.

 

·      Shares which have already been owned by you for more than six (6) months and which are surrendered to the Company. The Fair Market Value of the Shares, determined as of the effective date of the Option exercise, will be applied to the Exercise Price.

 

·      To the extent a public market for the Shares exists as determined by the Company, by Cashless Exercise (as defined in the Plan) through delivery (on a form prescribed by the Company) of an irrevocable direction to a securities broker to sell Shares and to deliver all or part of the sale proceeds to the Company in payment of the aggregate Exercise Price.

 

 

 

 

12.

Withholding Taxes

 

You will be solely responsible for payment of any and all applicable taxes associated with this Option.

 

You will not be allowed to exercise this Option unless you make acceptable arrangements to pay any withholding or other taxes that may be due as a result of the Option exercise or sale of Shares acquired under this Option.

 

 

 

 

13.

Restrictions on Exercise and Resale

 

By signing this Agreement, you agree not to (i) exercise this Option (“Exercise Prohibition”), or (ii) sell, transfer, dispose of, pledge, hypothecate, make any short sale of, or otherwise effect a similar

 

7



 

 

 

 

transaction of any Shares acquired under this Option (each a “Sale Prohibition”) at a time when applicable laws, regulations or Company or underwriter trading policies prohibit the exercise or disposition of Shares. The Company will not permit you to exercise this Option if the issuance of Shares at that time would violate any law or regulation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Option is granted on the condition that the Company’s stockholders approve the Plan prior to April 9, 2011. You understand and agree that this Option may not be exercised unless the Company’s stockholders timely approve the Plan. If the Company’s stockholders do not approve the Plan prior to April 9, 2011, then this Option shall be immediately forfeited without consideration. The Company shall have the right to designate one or more periods of time, each of which generally will not exceed one hundred eighty (180) days in length (provided however, that such period may be extended in connection with the Company’s release (or announcement of release) of earnings results or other material news or events), and to impose an Exercise Prohibition and/or Sale Prohibition, if the Company determines (in its sole discretion) that such limitation(s) is needed in connection with a public offering of Shares or to comply with an underwriter’s request or trading policy, or could in any way facilitate a lessening of any restriction on transfer pursuant to the Securities Act or any state securities laws with respect to any issuance of securities by the Company, facilitate the registration or qualification of any securities by the Company under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, or facilitate the perfection of any exemption from the registration or qualification requirements of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws for the issuance or transfer of any securities. The Company may issue stop/transfer instructions and/or appropriately legend any stock certificates issued pursuant to this Option in order to ensure compliance with the foregoing. Any such Exercise Prohibition shall not alter the vesting schedule set forth in this Agreement other than to limit the periods during which this Option shall be exercisable.

 

If the sale of Shares under the Plan is not registered under the Securities Act, but an exemption is available which requires an investment or other representation, you shall represent and agree at the time of exercise that the Shares being acquired upon exercise of this Option are being acquired for investment, and not with a view to the sale or distribution thereof, and shall make such other representations as are deemed necessary or appropriate by the Company and its counsel.

 

You may also be required, as a condition of exercise of this Option, to enter into any Company stockholder agreement or other agreements that are applicable to stockholders.

 

 

 

 

14.

Option

 

prior written consent of the Company as provided in its sole and absolute discretion, you cannot transfer, assign, alienate, pledge, attach, sell, or encumber this Option. If you attempt to do any of these things without the Company’s prior written consent, this Option will immediately become invalid. You may, however, dispose of this Option in your will or it may be transferred by the laws of descent and distribution. Regardless of any marital property settlement agreement, the Company is not obligated to honor a notice of exercise from your spouse, nor is the Company obligated to recognize your spouse’s interest in your Option in any other way.

 

 

 

 

15.

Retention Rights

 

Your Option or this Agreement does not give you the right to be retained by the Company (or any Parent or any Subsidiaries or Affiliates) in any capacity; provided, however, the foregoing statement shall not limit any of your rights under the Employment Agreement. Subject to the Employment Agreement, the Company (or any Parent and any Subsidiaries or Affiliates) reserves the right to terminate your Service at any time and for any reason.

 

This Option and the Shares subject to the Option are not intended to constitute or replace any pension rights or compensation and are not to be considered compensation of a continuing or recurring nature, or part of Optionee’s normal or expected compensation, and in no way represent any portion of Optionee’s salary, compensation or other remuneration for any purpose, including but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments.

 

 

 

 

16.

Stockholder Rights

 

You, or your estate or heirs, have no rights as a stockholder of the Company with regard to the Option until a certificate for your Option’s Shares has been issued. No adjustments are made for dividends or other rights if the applicable record date occurs before your stock certificate is issued, except as described in the Plan.

 

 

 

 

17.

Adjustments

 

In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in the Company stock, the number of Shares covered by this Option (rounded down to the nearest whole number) and the Exercise Price per Share may be adjusted pursuant to the Plan. Your Option shall be subject to the terms of the agreement of merger, liquidation or reorganization in the event the Company is subject to such corporate activity, subject, if applicable, to the Change in Control vesting provisions described in the Vesting Schedule.

Schedule A

to Nonstatutory Performance Stock Option Agreement

 

1.  Calculation.  The number of Shares that can become subject to the Vested Option for purposes of this Option will be calculated as follows:

 

a.             First Step:

 

For RealD and for each other company in the Comparison Group, determine the Total Shareholder Return (as described in Section 2(b) below) over the Performance Period.

 

b.             Second Step:

 

Rank the TSRs determined in the first step from low to high (with the company having the lowest TSR being ranked number 1, the company with the second lowest TSR ranked number 2, and so on) and determine the RealD percentile rank based upon its position in the list by dividing RealD’s position by the total number of companies (including RealD) in the Comparison Group and rounding the quotient to the nearest hundredth. For example, if RealD were ranked 21st on the list out of 40 companies, its percentile rank would be 21/40 or 52.5%.

 

c.             Third Step:

 

Determine the percentile rank for RealD calculated in the second step into the appropriate row in the left-hand column of the table below and determine the number of Shares that can become subject to the Vested Option, which is the figure in the right-hand column of the table below corresponding to that percentile rank.  Use linear interpolation between points in the table below to determine the percentile rank and the number of Shares that can become subject to the Vested Option if RealD’s percentile rank is greater than 10% and less than 60% but not exactly one of the percentile ranks listed in the left-hand column.  Any Shares which do not vest pursuant to the preceding calculation shall be immediately forfeited without consideration.  For example, if RealD’s percentile rank is 52.5%, the number of Shares that can become subject to the Vested Option would be 29,750 Shares and 5,250 Shares would be immediately forfeited without consideration.

2. Rules.  The following rules apply to the computation of the number of Shares that can become subject to the Vested Option:

 

a.     The minimum number of Shares subject to the Vested Option is zero and the maximum number of Shares that can become subject to the Vested Option is 35,000.

 

b.      For purposes of computing Total Shareholder Return for RealD and each other company in the Comparison Group, the per share stock price for each company at the beginning and end of the Performance Period will be determined using the arithmetic mean of the closing price of the company’s stock on each of the 20 consecutive trading days ending on and including the first day or last day of the Performance Period, as the case may be, except that RealD’s beginning stock price will be its opening IPO price (i.e., the same price as the Exercise Price per Share, as shown on the attached cover sheet) and in the event of a Change in Control that occurs prior to the Time Vesting End Date, RealD’s end stock price will be the per share transaction price of the Change in Control.

 

c.     A company shall be removed from the Comparison Group if it has been acquired by another company (whether by a peer company or otherwise, but not including internal reorganizations) or has sold all or substantially all of its assets at any time during the Performance Period.  A company that is removed from the Comparison Group before the Performance Vesting Computation Date will not be included at all in the computation of the Number of Shares that can Become Subject to the Vested Option.

 

d.     A company from the Comparison Group shall be treated as having “-100%” TSR for purposes of the First Step of the Calculation described in Section 1(a) of this Schedule A if it “Fails.”  A company in the Comparison Group will be deemed to have “Failed” if it:

 

i.              files for bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization; or

 

ii.             is the subject of an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding that is not dismissed within 30 days; or

 

iii.            ceases to conduct substantial business operations; or

 

iv.            is the subject of a stockholder-approved plan of liquidation or dissolution.

 

e.     RealD shall rely on press releases, public filings, website postings, and other reasonably reliable information available regarding a peer company in making a determination that a company has been acquired or “Failed.”
