incentive stock options section 422

The term incentive stock option means an option that meets the requirements of paragraph a 2 of this section on the date of grant. An incentive stock option may contain a number of permissible provisions that do not affect the status of the option as an incentive stock option. In addition, the option must meet all of the following requirements. If the terms of an option that has lost its status as an incentive stock option are subsequently changed with the intent to re-qualify the option as an incentive stock optionsuch change results in the grant of a new option on the date of the change. If the terms of an optionwhen granted, provide that it will not be treated as an incentive stock optionsuch option is not treated as an incentive stock option. An incentive stock option must be granted pursuant to a plan that meets the requirements of this paragraph b. The authority to grant other stock options or other stock -based awards pursuant to the planwhere the exercise of such other options or awards does not affect the exercise of incentive stock options granted pursuant to the plandoes not disqualify such incentive stock options. The plan must be in writing or electronic form, provided that such writing or electronic form is adequate to establish the terms of the plan. Ordinarily, a plan is adopted when it is approved by the granting corporation 's board of directors, and the date of the board's action is the reference point for determining whether stockholder approval occurs within the applicable month period. However, if the board's action is subject to a condition such as stockholder approval or the happening of a particular event, the plan is adopted on the date the condition is met or the event occurs, unless the board's resolution fixes the date of approval as the date of the board's action. Any increase in the maximum aggregate number of shares that may be issued under the plan other than an increase merely reflecting a change in the number of outstanding shares, such as a stock dividend or stock splitor change in the designation of the employees or class or classes of employees eligible to receive options under the section is considered the adoption of a new plan requiring stockholder approval within the prescribed month period. In addition, a change in the granting corporation or the stock available for purchase or award under the plan is considered the adoption of a new plan requiring new stockholder approval within the prescribed month period. Any other changes in the terms of an incentive stock option plan are not considered the adoption of a new plan and, thus, do not require stockholder approval. Incentive nonstatutory options or other stock -based awards may be granted, the plan may separately designate terms for each type of option or other stock -based awards and designate the maximum number of shares that may be issued under such option or other stock -based awards. Unless otherwise specified, all terms of the plan apply to all options and other stock -based awards that may be granted under the plan. However, the maximum aggregate number of shares that may be issued under the plan may be stated in terms of a percentage of the authorized, issued, or outstanding shares at the date of the adoption of the plan. The plan may specify that the maximum aggregate number of shares available for grants under the plan may increase annually by a specified percentage of the authorized, issued, or outstanding shares at the date of the adoption of the plan. A plan which provides that the maximum aggregate number of shares that may be issued as incentive stock options under the plan may change based on any other specified circumstances satisfies the requirements of this paragraph b 3 only if the stockholders approve an immediately determinable maximum aggregate number of shares that may be issued under the plan in any event. A separate maximum aggregate number of shares available for issuance pursuant to incentive stock options must be approved for each plan. The plan described in this paragraph bas adopted and approved, must indicate the employees or class or classes of employees eligible to receive the options or other stock -based awards to be granted under the plan. This requirement is satisfied by a general designation of the employees or the class or classes of employees eligible to receive options or other stock -based awards under the plan. This requirement is considered satisfied even though the board of directors, another groupor an individual is given the authority to select the particular employees who are to receive options or other stock -based awards from a described class and to determine the number of shares to be optioned or granted to each such employee. If individuals other than employees may be granted options or other stock -based awards under the planthe plan must separately designate the employees or classes of employees eligible to receive incentive stock options. An option on stock available for purchase or grant under the plan is treated as having been granted pursuant to a plan even if the terms of the option conflict with the terms of the planunless such option is granted to an employee who is ineligible to receive options under the planoptions have been granted on stock in excess of the aggregate number of shares which may be issued under the planor the option provides otherwise. Assume further that the plan was approved by the stockholders of S in this case, P incentive March 1, On January 1,S changes the plan to provide that incentive stock options options P stock will be granted to S employees under the plan. Because there is a change 422 the stock available for grant under the planthe change is considered the adoption of a new plan that must be approved by the stockholder of S in this case, P within 12 months before or after January 1, Assume further that after P disposes of its interest in S, S changes the plan to provide for the grant of options for S stock to S employees. Because there is a change in the stock available for purchase or grant under the planunder paragraph b 2 iii of this section, the stockholders of S section approve the plan within 12 months before or after the change to the plan to meet the stockholder approval requirements of paragraph b of this section. Because the plan is fully described in the consolidation agreementincluding the maximum aggregate number of shares available for issuance pursuant to incentive stock options and employees eligible to receive options under the planthe approval of the consolidation agreement by the shareholders constitutes approval of the plan. Thus, the shareholder approval of the consolidation agreement satisfies the shareholder approval requirements of paragraph b 2 of this section, and the plan is considered to be adopted by Corporation Y and approved by its shareholders on May 1, Because the maximum aggregate number of shares that may be issued under the plan is designated as the lesser of one of two numbers, one of which provides an immediately determinable maximum aggregate number of shares that may be issued under the plan in any event, the requirements of paragraph b 3 of this section are met. An incentive stock option must be granted within 10 years from the date that the plan under which it is granted is adopted or the date such plan is approved by the stockholders, whichever is earlier. To grant incentive stock options after the expiration of the year period, a new plan must be adopted and approved. An incentive incentive optionby its termsmust not be exercisable after the expiration of 10 years from the date such option is granted, or 5 years from the date such option is granted to an employee described in paragraph f of this section. An option that does not contain such a provision when granted is not an incentive stock option. Whether there was a good-faith attempt to set the option price at not less than the fair market value of the stock subject to the option at the time the option was granted depends on the relevant facts and circumstances. The optionee's status as a majority or minority stockholder may be taken into consideration. An attempt to set the option price at not less than fair market value is not regarded as section in good faith where an adjustment of the option price to reflect amounts treated as interest results in the option price being lower than the fair market value on which the option price was based. If the optionwhen granted, does not comply with the requirements described in paragraph f of this section, such option can never become an incentive stock optioneven if the employee 's stock ownership does not exceed the limitation of paragraph f of this section when such option is exercised. 422 purposes of determining the minimum option price for purposes of this paragraph fthe rules described in paragraph e 2 of this section, relating to the good-faith determination of the option pricedo not apply. Stock that the optionee may purchase under outstanding options is not treated as stock owned by the individual. The determination of the percentage of the 422 combined voting power of all classes of stock of the employer corporation or of its related corporations that is owned by the optionee is made with respect to each such corporation in the related group by comparing the voting power of the shares owned or treated as owned by the optionee to the aggregate voting power of all shares of each such corporation actually issued and outstanding immediately before the grant of the option to the optionee. The aggregate voting power of all shares actually issued and outstanding immediately before the grant of the option does not include the voting power of treasury shares or shares authorized for issue under outstanding options held by the individual or any 422 person. The rules of this paragraph f are illustrated by the following examples:. The option granted to E fails to meet the option -price and term requirements described in paragraph f 1 of this section and, thus, the option is not an incentive stock option. However, the July option is not an incentive stock option because, on the date that it is granted, F owns 20 percent 25, shares owned by F divided byshares of R stock issued and outstanding of the total combined voting power of all classes of R Corporation stock and, thus the pricing requirements of paragraph f 1 of this section are not met. Under these circumstances, the July option is an incentive stock optionbecause, on the date of grant of the July optionF does not own more than 10 percent of the total combined voting power 10, shares owned by F divided byshares of R issued and outstanding of all classes of R Corporation stock.

Code Rulemaking What Cites Me. On January 1,S adopts a plan under which incentive stock options for S stock are granted to S employees. Thereafter, S continues to grant options for S stock to S employees under the plan. Corporation Y does not maintain an incentive stock option plan. On May 15,Corporation X and Corporation Y consolidate under state law to form one corporation. The new corporation will be named Corporation Y. The consolidation agreement describes the Corporation X plan, including the maximum aggregate number of shares available for issuance pursuant to incentive stock options after the consolidation and the employees eligible to receive options under the plan. Additionally, the consolidation agreement states that the plan will be continued by Corporation Y after the consolidation and incentive stock options will be issued by Corporation Y.

Maximum aggregate number of shares. X Corporation maintains a plan under which statutory options and nonstatutory options may be granted. The plan designates the number of shares that may be used for incentive stock options.
