Under Armour, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Description of the Business

Under Armour, Inc. is a developer, marketer and distributor of branded performance apparel, footwear and accessories. These products are sold worldwide and worn by athletes at all levels, from youth to professional on playing fields around the globe, as well as by consumers with active lifestyles.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Under Armour, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Company”). All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Interim Financial Data

The results for the three months ended March 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2009 or any other portions thereof. Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements has been condensed or omitted for the interim periods presented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim consolidated financial statements.

These financial statements do not contain all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal, recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations have been included.

The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008 is derived from the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2008 (the “2008 Form 10-K”), which should be read in conjunction with these consolidated financial statements.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable. The majority of the Company’s accounts receivable is due from large sporting goods retailers. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition and collateral is not required. The most significant customers that accounted for a large portion of net revenues and accounts receivable are as follows:

 

     Customer
A
    Customer
B
    Customer
C
 

Net revenues

      

Three months ended March 31, 2009

   20.8 %   10.5 %   5.4 %

Three months ended March 31, 2008

   21.1 %   11.9 %   5.2 %

Accounts receivable

      

As of March 31, 2009

   25.4 %   13.5 %   7.3 %

As of March 31, 2008

   25.9 %   16.1 %   4.8 %

Table of Contents

Income Taxes

The Company recorded $3.1 million and $1.9 million of income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The effective rate for income taxes was 43.8% and 40.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was higher than the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2008 primarily due to discrete items recorded during the first quarter of 2008 that reduced the effective tax rate for the period. The Company’s annual 2009 effective tax rate is expected to be improved from the 2008 annual effective tax rate of 45.3% due to certain tax strategies being implemented by the Company in 2009.

Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company charges certain customers shipping and handling fees. These fees are recorded in net revenues. The Company includes the majority of outbound shipping and handling costs as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses. Outbound shipping and handling costs include costs associated with shipping goods to customers and certain costs to operate the Company’s distribution facilities. These costs, included within selling, general and administrative expenses, were $4.5 million and $3.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Management Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates, including estimates relating to assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In June 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No. 03-06-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities (“FSP EITF 03-06-1”). FSP EITF 03-06-1 requires that unvested stock-based compensation awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) should be classified as participating securities and should be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method as described by SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. The provisions of FSP EITF 03-06-1 were required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company has adopted FSP EITF 03-06-1 for current period computations of earnings per share, and has updated prior period computations of earnings per share as directed by FSP EITF 03-06-1. The adoption of FSP EITF 03-06-1 in the first quarter of 2009 did not have a material impact on the Company’s computation of earnings per share.

In June 2008, the FASB issued EITF Issue No. 07-5, Determining Whether an Instrument (or an Embedded Feature) is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock (“EITF 07-5”). EITF 07-5 addresses the determination of whether provisions that introduce adjustment features (including contingent adjustment features) would prevent treating a derivative contract or an embedded derivative on a company’s own stock as indexed solely to the company’s stock. EITF 07-5 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of EITF 07-5 in the first quarter of 2009 did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. The provisions of SFAS 161 were effective for the fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company adopted SFAS 161 and

Table of Contents

updated its consolidated financial statement disclosures in accordance with SFAS 161. The adoption of SFAS 161 in the first quarter of 2009 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statement disclosures.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations (revised 2007) (“SFAS 141R”). SFAS 141R replaces SFAS 141 and requires the acquirer of a business to recognize and measure the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity at fair value. SFAS 141R also requires transaction costs related to the business combination to be expensed as incurred. SFAS 141R was effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the start of the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS 141R in the first quarter of 2009 did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements-an amendment of ARB No. 51 (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS 160 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS 160 in the first quarter of 2009 did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 was effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, however the FASB delayed the effective date of SFAS 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, expect those items recognized or disclosed at fair value on an annual or more frequent basis. The adoption of SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities in the first quarter of 2009 did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

Intangible assets are amortized using estimated useful lives of 33 months to 89 months with no residual value. Amortization expense, which is primarily included in selling, general and administrative expenses, was $0.4 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008. The estimated amortization expense of the Company’s intangible assets is $1.6 million for each of the years ending December 31, 2009 through 2011, $0.5 million for the year ending December 31, 2012 and $0.1 million for the year ending December 31, 2013.

5. Revolving Credit Facility and Long Term Debt

Revolving Credit Facility

In January 2009, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility with certain lending institutions, and terminated its prior revolving credit facility in order to increase the Company’s available financing and to expand its lending syndicate. In conjunction with the termination of the prior revolving credit facility, the Company repaid the then outstanding balance of $25.0 million and did not borrow under the revolving credit facility through March 31, 2009.

The revolving credit facility has a term of three years and provides for a committed revolving credit line of up to $200.0 million based on the Company’s qualified inventory and accounts receivable balances. The commitment amount under the revolving credit facility may be increased by an additional $50.0 million, subject to certain conditions and approvals per the credit agreement. The Company incurred and capitalized $1.4 million in deferred financing costs in connection with the revolving credit facility. In accordance with EITF 98-14, Debtor’s Accounting for Changes in Line-of-Credit or Revolving-Debt Arrangements, unamortized deferred financing costs of $0.4 million relating to the Company’s prior revolving credit facility were expensed during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and $0.1 million of deferred financing costs was added to the deferred financing costs of the new revolving credit facility and will be amortized over the life of the new revolving credit facility.

The revolving credit facility may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. It is collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company, the assets of its domestic subsidiaries (other than the Company’s trademarks), and by a pledge of 65% of the equity interests of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. Up to $5.0 million of the revolving credit facility may be used to support letters of credit. The Company must maintain a certain leverage ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio as defined in the credit agreement. As of March 31, 2009, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants. The revolving credit facility also provides the lenders with the ability to reduce the borrowing base, even if the Company is in compliance with all conditions of the revolving credit facility, upon a material adverse change to the business, properties, assets, financial condition or results of operations of the Company. The revolving credit facility contains a number of restrictions that limit the Company’s ability, among other things, and subject to certain limited exceptions, to incur additional indebtedness, pledge its assets as security, guaranty obligations of third parties, make investments, undergo a merger or consolidation, dispose of assets, or materially change its line of business. In addition, the revolving credit facility includes a cross default provision whereby an event of default under other debt obligations, as defined in the credit agreement, will be considered an event of default under this credit agreement.

Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest based on the daily balance outstanding at LIBOR (with LIBOR subject to a rate floor of 1.25%) plus an applicable margin (varying from 2.0% to 2.5%) or, in certain cases a base rate (based on the prime rate or as otherwise specified in the credit agreement, with the base rate subject to a rate floor of 2.25%) plus an applicable margin (varying from 1.0% to 1.5%). The revolving credit facility also carries a commitment fee varying from 0.375% to 0.5% of the available but unused borrowings. The applicable margins are calculated quarterly and vary based on the Company’s leverage ratio as defined in the credit agreement.

Prior to entering into the revolving credit facility in January 2009, the Company terminated its prior $100.0 million revolving credit facility. The prior revolving credit facility was also collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets, other than its trademarks, and included covenants, conditions and other terms similar to the Company’s new revolving credit facility.

As of March 31, 2009, the Company’s net availability was $143.6 million based on its eligible domestic inventory and accounts receivable balances. The weighted average interest rate on the balances outstanding under the prior revolving credit facility was 1.4% and 4.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Long Term Debt

In March 2005, the Company entered into an agreement to finance the acquisition or lease of up to $17.0 million in qualifying capital investments. Loans under this agreement are collateralized by a first lien on the assets acquired. The agreement is not a committed facility, with each advance under the agreement subject to the lender’s approval. In March 2008, the lender agreed to increase the maximum financing under the agreement to $37.0 million.

In May 2008, the Company entered into an additional agreement to finance the acquisition or lease of up to $40.0 million in qualifying capital investments. Loans under this additional agreement are collateralized by a first lien on the assets acquired. This additional agreement is not a committed facility, with each advance under the agreement subject to the lender’s approval.

These agreements include a cross default provision whereby an event of default under other debt obligations, including the revolving credit facility agreement, is considered an event of default under these agreements. Through March 31, 2009, the Company has financed $33.0 million of property and equipment under these agreements. The terms of the Company’s revolving credit facility limit the total amount of additional financing available under these agreements to $35.0 million, of which $35.0 million was available as of March 31, 2009.

As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the outstanding principal balances were $18.3 million and $20.1 million, respectively, under these agreements. Advances under these agreements bear interest rates which are fixed at the time of each advance. The weighted average interest rates on outstanding borrowings were 5.9% and 6.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

The Company monitors the financial health and stability of its lenders under the revolving credit and long term debt facilities; however, current significant instability in the credit markets could negatively impact lenders and their ability to perform under their facilities.

Included in interest expense, net for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was interest expense, including amortization of deferred financing costs, under the revolving credit facility and long term debt agreements of $0.9 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

6. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is, from time to time, involved in routine legal matters incidental to its business. Management believes that the ultimate resolution of any such current proceedings and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In connection with various contracts and agreements, the Company has agreed to indemnify counterparties against certain third party claims relating to the infringement of intellectual property rights and other items that fall under the scope of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor’s

Table of Contents

Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. Based on the Company’s historical experience and the estimated probability of future loss, the Company has determined that the fair value of such indemnifications is not material to its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Certain key executives are party to agreements with the Company that include severance benefits upon involuntary termination of employment without cause or for good reason, including following a change in control of the Company.

7. Fair Value Measurements

On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS 157 for its financial assets and liabilities. On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. The adoption in 2009 had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. SFAS 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). SFAS 157 outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures and prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Financial assets and (liabilities) measured at fair value as of March 31, 2009 are set forth in the table below:

 

(In thousands)

               

Description

     Level 1        Level 2         Level 3  

Derivative foreign currency forward contracts (see Note 9)

     $     -      $ 1,426       $     -

Rabbi Trust owned life insurance policies (“TOLI”)

     -      2,045       -

Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”)

     -      (2,025 )     -

Fair values of the financial assets and liabilities listed above are determined using inputs that use as their basis readily observable market data that are actively quoted and are validated through external sources, including third-party pricing services and brokers. The foreign currency forward contracts represent gains and losses on derivative contracts, which are the net difference between the U.S. dollars to be received or paid at each contract’s settlement date and the U.S. dollar value of the foreign currency to be sold or purchased at the current forward exchange rate. The fair value of the TOLI is based on the cash-surrender value of the policies, which are invested primarily in mutual funds and a separately managed fixed income fund. These investments are in the same funds and purchased in substantially the same amounts as the participants’ selected investments, which represent the underlying liabilities to participants in the Plan. Liabilities under the Plan are recorded at amounts due to participants, based on the fair value of participants’ selected investments.

8. Stock-Based Compensation

The Under Armour, Inc. 2005 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”) provides for the issuance of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other equity awards to officers, directors, key employees and other persons. In March 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors approved, subject to stockholder approval, an amended and restated 2005 Plan that includes an increase in the maximum number of

Table of Contents

shares available under the 2005 Plan from 2.7 million to 10.0 million. The amended and restated 2005 Plan was approved by stockholders on May 5, 2009. See “Item 5, Other Information”. As of March 31, 2009, 6.9 million shares were available for future grants of awards under the 2005 Plan, subject to stockholder approval.

In March 2009, 1.2 million performance-based stock options were awarded to certain officers and key employees under the Company’s 2005 Plan. These stock options have a term of ten years from the grant date with vesting tied to the achievement of a combined annual operating income target for 2009 and 2010. Upon the achievement of the combined annual operating income target, 50% of the stock options (or 45% in certain cases) will vest and the remaining 50% of the stock options (or 45% in certain cases) will vest one year later. The exercise price of the performance-based stock options is $13.71, which was the closing price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on the date of grant. The weighted average fair value of each of the performance-based stock options was $7.33 and was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model consistent with the weighted average assumptions included in the 2008 Form 10-K.

In July 2008, the Company granted 185.8 thousand performance-based stock options under the 2005 Plan to the Company’s President upon his hiring. The vesting of the award was subject to the achievement of four separate annual operating income targets. In March 2009, the operating income targets were reduced to more closely align the targets with the operating income targets for the performance-based stock options discussed above. The President’s performance-based stock options will vest in four equal installments subject to the achievement of combined annual operating income targets beginning with 2010 and 2011. Upon the achievement of each of the combined annual operating income targets, 50% of the tranche (or 45% in certain cases) will vest and the remaining 50% of the tranche (or 45% in certain cases) will vest one year later. The term of the President’s performance-based stock options is ten years from the July 2008 grant date and the exercise price of each of the President’s performance-based stock options is $28.93, which was the closing price of the Company’s Class A Stock on the grant date. The weighted average fair value of each performance-based stock option was modified to $5.15 using modification date valuation inputs similar to the assumptions included in the 2008 Form 10-K.

As of March 31, 2009, the Company has not recorded stock-based compensation expense for all performance based stock options as the Company is currently unable to predict with certainty whether the operating income targets will be reached. The Company will assess the probability of the achievement of the operating income targets at the end of each reporting period. When it becomes probable that a performance target will be achieved, a cumulative adjustment will be recorded as if ratable stock-based compensation expense had been recorded since the grant date.

9. Foreign Currency Risk Management and Derivatives

The Company is exposed to gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates mainly relating to transactions generated by its international subsidiaries in currencies other than their local currencies, primarily driven by inter-company transactions. In August 2007, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on projected inventory purchases and inter-company transactions for its Canadian subsidiary. Beginning in December 2008, the Company began using foreign currency forward contracts in order to reduce the risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on inter-company transactions for its European subsidiary.

As of March 31, 2009, the notional value of the Company’s outstanding foreign currency forward contracts used to mitigate the foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on its Canadian subsidiary’s projected inventory purchases and inter-company transactions was approximately $27.6 million with contract maturities of 1 to 5 months and on its European’s subsidiary’s projected inter-company transactions was approximately $28.9 million with contract maturities of 1 month. The foreign currency forward contracts are not designated as cash flow hedges, and accordingly, changes in their fair value are recorded in earnings. The fair value of the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts was $1.4 million and $1.2 million as of March 31, 2009 and

December 31, 2008, respectively, and was included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Refer to Note 7 for a discussion of the fair value measurements. Included in other income, net were the following amounts related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and derivative foreign currency forward contracts:

The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts with major financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings and is exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by these financial institutions. This credit risk is generally limited to the unrealized gains in the foreign currency forward contracts. However, the Company monitors the credit quality of these financial institutions and considers the risk of counterparty default to be minimal.

The Company adopted FSP EITF 03-06-1 during the three months ended March 31, 2009. FSP EITF 03-06-1 requires that any stock-based compensation awards that entitle their holders to receive dividends prior to vesting to be considered participating securities and should be included in the calculation of basic earnings per share using the two class method. Prior to the adoption of FSP EITF 03-06-1, these stock-based compensation awards were included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share using the treasury stock method in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. The Company determined that all outstanding restricted stock awards meet the definition of participating securities and should be included in basic earnings per share using the two class method as required by FSP EITF 03-06-1. The Company included outstanding restricted stock awards in the calculation of basic earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and adjusted prior period earnings per share calculations as required by FSP EITF 03-06-1. The application of FSP EITF 03-06-1 to the first three months of 2008 had no impact on the Company’s consolidated earnings per share.

Effects of potentially dilutive securities are presented only in periods in which they are dilutive. Stock options, restricted stock units, and warrants representing 1.2 million and 554.2 thousand shares of common stock were outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, but were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q reflect our views and assumptions only as of the date of this Form 10-Q. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Overview

We are a leading developer, marketer and distributor of branded performance apparel, footwear and accessories. The brand’s moisture-wicking synthetic fabrications are engineered in many different designs and styles for wear in nearly every climate to provide a performance alternative to traditional natural fiber products. Our products are sold worldwide and worn by athletes at all levels, from youth to professional, on playing fields around the globe, as well as by consumers with active lifestyles.

Our net revenues grew to $725.2 million in 2008 from $205.2 million in 2004. We reported net revenues of $200.0 million for the first three months of 2009, which represented a 27.1% increase from the first three months of 2008. We believe that our growth in net revenues has been driven by a growing interest in performance products and the strength of the Under Armour brand in the marketplace relative to our competitors, as evidenced by the increases in our sales of apparel and footwear. We plan to continue to increase our net revenues by building upon our relationships with existing customers, expanding our product offerings, offering new and innovative products, building our direct to consumer sales channel and building our brand internationally. Our direct to consumer channel includes sales through our retail outlet and specialty stores, website, and catalog. New product offerings include the introduction of performance running footwear, which we began shipping in the first quarter of 2009 and soccer cleats which will have a limited introduction at soccer specialty stores in the United States and Europe during the second quarter of 2009. In addition, we have strategic agreements with third party licensees and distributors to further reinforce our brand identity and increase our net revenues.

Our products are currently offered in approximately 21,000 retail stores worldwide. A large majority of our products are sold in North America; however we believe that our products appeal to athletes and consumers with active lifestyles around the globe. Internationally, our products are offered primarily in the United Kingdom, France and Germany, as well as in Japan through a third-party licensee, and through distributors located in other foreign countries.

General

Net revenues comprise both net sales and license revenues. Net sales include sales of apparel, footwear and accessories. Our license revenues consist of fees paid to us by our licensees in exchange for the use of our trademarks on core products of socks, hats, bags, eyewear and other accessories, as well as the distribution of our products in Japan.

Cost of goods sold consists primarily of product costs, inbound freight and duty costs, handling costs to make products floor-ready to customer specifications, royalty payments to endorsers based on a predetermined percentage of sales of selected products and write downs for inventory obsolescence. The fabrics in our products are made of petroleum-based synthetic materials. Therefore our product costs, as well as our inbound freight costs, could be affected by long term pricing trends of oil. In general, as a percentage of net revenues, we expect cost of goods sold associated with our footwear to be higher than the cost of goods sold associated with our apparel. In addition, cost of goods sold includes overhead costs associated with our Special Make-Up Shop located at one of our distribution facilities where we manufacture a limited number of products, and costs relating to our Hong Kong and Guangzhou, China offices which help support manufacturing, quality assurance and sourcing efforts. No cost of goods sold is associated with license revenues.

We include a majority of our outbound shipping and handling costs as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses. As a result, our gross profit may not be comparable to that of other companies that

 

14


Table of Contents

include outbound shipping and handling costs in the calculation of their cost of goods sold. Outbound shipping and handling costs include costs associated with shipping goods to customers and certain costs to operate our distribution facilities. These costs were $4.5 million and $3.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses consist of costs related to marketing, selling, product innovation and supply chain and corporate services. Our marketing costs are an important driver of our growth. For the full year 2009, we expect to invest in marketing at the high-end of the range of 12% to 13% of net revenues. Marketing costs consist primarily of commercials, print ads, league, team, player and event sponsorships, amortization of footwear promotional rights, depreciation expense specific to our in-store fixture program and marketing related payroll. Selling costs consist primarily of payroll and other costs relating to sales through our wholesale and direct to consumer sales channels, along with commissions paid to third parties. Product innovation and supply chain costs include our apparel and footwear product creation and development costs, distribution facility operating costs, and related payroll. Corporate services primarily consist of corporate facility operating costs, related payroll and company-wide administrative and stock-based compensation expenses.

Other income, net consists of unrealized and realized gains and losses on our derivative financial instruments and unrealized and realized gains and losses on adjustments that arise from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relating to transactions generated by our international subsidiaries.

Net sales increased $43.0 million, or 28.4%, to $194.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $151.9 million during the same period in 2008 as noted in the table above. The increase in net sales primarily reflects:

 

   

$40.3 million increase in footwear sales driven primarily by the introduction of our new running footwear in the first quarter of 2009;

 

   

increased average apparel selling prices, driven primarily by substantial growth in direct to consumer sales; and

 

   

new apparel products introduced subsequent to March 31, 2008 in multiple product categories, most significantly in our running and fitness categories; partially offset by

 

   

overall reductions in orders, as a result of a continuing weakened retail environment.

License revenues decreased $0.4 million, or 7.4%, to $5.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $5.5 million during the same period in 2008 primarily due to a continuing weakened retail environment.

Gross profit increased $15.7 million to $90.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $74.8 million for the same period in 2008. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues, or gross margin, decreased 230 basis points to 45.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to 47.6% during the same period in 2008. The decrease in gross margin percentage was primarily driven by the following:

 

   

higher proportion of total sales year over year from footwear which have lower margins than our apparel, accounting for an approximate 70 basis point decrease;

 

   

less favorable apparel mix relative to margins, along with slightly higher apparel product costs, accounting for an approximate 60 basis point decrease;

 

   

increased sales returns and footwear markdown allowances, accounting for an approximate 50 basis point decrease; and

 

   

lower proportion of total sales year over year from licensing revenues, accounting for an approximate 50 basis point decrease.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $12.2 million to $82.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $70.5 million for the same period in 2008. As a percentage of net revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 41.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from 44.9%

for the same period in 2008 partially driven by the significant revenue growth from our running footwear launch. In addition, these changes were also attributable to the following:

 

   

Marketing costs increased $5.1 million to $33.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $28.0 million for the same period in 2008 primarily due to increased marketing costs for specific customers, including our in-store brand campaign supporting the introduction of our performance running footwear and sponsorship of collegiate and professional teams and new events, including the National Football League Scouting Combine. These increases were partially offset by lower media and print expenditures during the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the prior year period. As a percentage of net revenues, marketing costs decreased to 16.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from 17.8% for the same period in 2008 primarily due to lower media and print expenditures and personnel costs in 2009 partially offset by the other items noted above.

 

   

Selling costs increased $2.7 million to $14.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $11.9 million for the same period in 2008. This increase was primarily due to costs incurred for the continued expansion of our direct to consumer channel. As a percentage of net revenues, selling costs decreased to 7.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from 7.6% for the same period in 2008 due to lower apparel selling personnel costs, partially offset by higher costs incurred for the continued development of our retail stores as a percentage of net revenues in 2009.

 

   

Product innovation and supply chain costs increased $2.3 million to $17.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $14.9 million for the same period in 2008 primarily due to higher distribution facilities operating and personnel costs to support our growth in net revenues. As a percentage of net revenues, product innovation and supply chain costs decreased to 8.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from 9.5% for the same period in 2008 due to lower personnel costs to operate our distribution facilities and to design and source our expanding footwear and apparel product lines as a percentage of net revenues.

 

   

Corporate services costs increased $2.0 million to $17.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $15.8 million for the same period in 2008. This increase was attributable primarily to higher company-wide stock-based compensation due to additional stock-based compensation awards granted since March 31, 2008, and higher allowances for bad debts related to the current economic conditions. As a percentage of net revenues, corporate services costs decreased to 8.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from 10.0% for the same period in 2008 primarily due to lower corporate facility personnel and operating costs as a percentage of net revenues.

Income from operations increased $3.6 million, or 83.7%, to $7.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $4.3 million for the same period in 2008. Income from operations as a percentage of net revenues increased to 4.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from 2.7% for the same period in 2008. This increase was a result of a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses partially offset by a decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net revenues as discussed above.

Interest expense, net increased $0.8 million to $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $0.1 million for the same period in 2008. This increase was primarily due to the deferred financing costs expense related to our prior revolving credit facility during the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Other income, net decreased $587.7 thousand to $12.5 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $600.2 thousand for the same period in 2008. This decrease was primarily due to losses on foreign currency exchange rate changes on transactions denominated in the Euro and Canadian Dollar, largely offset by gains on our derivative financial instruments.

Provision for income taxes increased $1.2 million to $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $1.9 million for the same period in 2008. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, our effective tax rate was 43.8% compared to 40.3% for the same period in 2008. The effective tax rate for the three months

Table of Contents

ended March 31, 2009 was higher than the effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2008 primarily due to discrete items recorded during the first quarter of 2008 that reduced the effective tax rate for the period. Our annual 2009 effective tax rate is expected to be improved from the 2008 annual effective tax rate of 45.3% due to certain tax strategies being implemented in 2009.

Seasonality

Historically, we have recognized a significant portion of our income from operations in the last two quarters of the year, driven by increased sales volume of our products during the fall selling season, reflecting our historical strength in fall sports, and the seasonality of our higher priced COLDGEAR® line. Similar to 2008, a larger portion of our income from operations is expected to be in the last two quarters of 2009 partially due to the shift in the timing of marketing investments to the first two quarters of 2009 as compared to prior years. The majority of our net revenues were generated during the last two quarters in each of 2008, 2007 and 2006. The level of our working capital generally reflects the seasonality and growth in our business. We generally expect inventory, accounts payable and certain accrued expenses to be higher in the second and third quarters in preparation for the fall selling season. Nonetheless, the historical high percentage of income from operations and net revenues in the second half of the year may have been in part due to our growth in net revenues.

Financial Position, Capital Resources and Liquidity

Our cash requirements have principally been for working capital and capital expenditures. We fund our working capital (primarily inventory) and capital investments from cash flows provided by operating activities, cash and cash equivalents on hand and borrowings available under our revolving credit and long term debt facilities. Our working capital requirements have generally reflected the seasonality and growth in our business as we have recognized an increase in sales leading up to the fall selling season. Our capital investments have included expanding our in-store fixture and branded concept shop program, improvements and expansion of our distribution and corporate facilities to support our growth, leasehold improvements to our new retail stores and the investment and improvements in an Enterprise Resource Planning system and a warehouse management system.

We continue to focus on our three main components of inventory management including managing our inventory purchases, reducing our production lead times and selling excess inventory through our outlets and other liquidation channels. We plan to continue to focus on improving our inventory turns by year end.

In January 2009, we terminated our prior $100.0 million revolving credit facility and entered into a credit agreement which provides for a committed revolving credit facility of up to $200.0 million based on our qualified inventory and accounts receivable balances. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents on hand, cash from operations and borrowings available to us under our revolving credit and long term debt facilities will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months. We may require additional capital to meet our longer term liquidity and future growth needs. Although we believe that we have adequate sources of liquidity, further weakening of economic conditions could adversely affect our business and liquidity. In addition, continued instability in the capital markets could adversely affect our ability to obtain additional capital to grow our business and will affect the cost and terms of such capital.

Operating Activities

Operating activities consist primarily of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items. Adjustments to net income for non-cash items include depreciation and amortization, unrealized foreign currency exchange rate gains and losses, stock-based compensation, deferred income taxes and changes in reserves for doubtful accounts, returns, discounts and inventories. In addition, operating cash flows include the effect of changes in operating assets and liabilities, principally inventories, accounts receivable, income taxes payable and receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Cash used in operating activities decreased $15.0 million to $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from cash used in operating activities of $16.8 million during the same period in 2008. The decrease in cash used in operating activities was due to decreased net cash outflows from operating assets and liabilities of $11.4 million and adjustments to net income for non-cash items which increased $2.5 million period over period, and an increase in net income of $1.1 million. The decrease in cash outflows related to changes in operating assets and liabilities period over period was primarily driven by the following:

 

   

a lower investment in inventory of $19.2 million, primarily driven by the operational initiatives put in place to improve our inventory management and a larger percentage of products shipped directly from our suppliers to our customers due to our entry into running footwear;

 

   

a lower decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $8.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in 2008 primarily due to lower payments for personnel costs during 2009 as compared to 2008; partially offset by

 

   

a higher increase in accounts receivable of $14.2 million in the first three months of 2009 as compared to the same period in 2008 primarily due to a 28.4% growth in net sales period-over-period.

Adjustments to net income for non-cash items increased in the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the same period of the prior year primarily as a result of higher depreciation and amortization expense relating to our in-store fixture program, branded concept shops, and information technology initiatives.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities, which includes capital expenditures and the purchase of trust owned life insurance policies, decreased $3.3 million to $8.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $11.4 million for the same period in 2008. This decrease in cash used in investing activities is primarily due to the lower purchases of trust owned life insurance policies.

Table of Contents

Capital investments for the full year 2009 are anticipated to be in the range of $30.0 million to $35.0 million, which will include investments in the build out of our new retail outlet stores, improvements at our distribution facilities and additional branded concept shops and in-store fixtures.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities increased $32.7 million to $27.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from cash provided by financing activities of $5.3 million for the same period in 2008. This increase was primarily due to additional net payments made on our revolving credit and long term debt facilities and payments made on deferred financing costs for our new revolving credit facility.

Revolving Credit Facility Agreement

In January 2009, we entered into a revolving credit facility with certain lending institutions and terminated our prior revolving credit facility in order to increase our available financing and to expand our lending syndicate. In conjunction with the termination of the prior revolving credit facility, we repaid the then outstanding balance of $25.0 million and did not borrow under the revolving credit facility through March 31, 2009. In the short term, we may borrow under the revolving credit facility to increase our cash position.

The revolving credit facility has a term of three years and provides for a committed revolving credit line of up to $200.0 million based on our qualified inventory and accounts receivable balances. The commitment amount under the revolving credit facility may be increased by an additional $50.0 million, subject to certain conditions and approvals per the credit agreement. We incurred and capitalized $1.4 million in deferred financing costs in connection with the revolving credit facility. In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 98-14 Debtor’s Accounting for Changes in Line-of-Credit or Revolving-Debt Arrangements, unamortized deferred financing costs of $0.4 million relating to our prior revolving credit facility were expensed during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and $0.1 million of deferred financing costs were added to the deferred financing costs of the new revolving credit facility and will be amortized over the life of the new revolving credit facility.

The revolving credit facility may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. It is collateralized by substantially all of our assets, the assets of our domestic subsidiaries (other than our trademarks), and by a pledge of 65% of the equity interests of our foreign subsidiaries. Up to $5.0 million of the revolving credit facility may be used to support letters of credit. We must maintain a certain leverage ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio as defined in the credit agreement. As of March 31, 2009, we were in compliance with these financial covenants. The revolving credit facility also provides our lenders with the ability to reduce the borrowing base, even if we are in compliance with all conditions of the revolving credit facility, upon a material adverse change to our business, properties, assets, financial condition or results of operations. The revolving credit facility contains a number of restrictions that limit our ability, among other things, and subject to certain limited exceptions, to incur additional indebtedness, pledge our assets as security, guaranty obligations of third parties, make investments, undergo a merger or consolidation, dispose of assets, or materially change our line of business. In addition, the revolving credit facility includes a cross default provision whereby an event of default under other debt obligations, as defined in the credit agreement, will be considered an event of default under this credit agreement.

Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest based on the daily balance outstanding at LIBOR (with LIBOR subject to a rate floor of 1.25%) plus an applicable margin (varying from 2.0% to 2.5%) or, in certain cases a base rate (based on the prime rate or as otherwise specified in the credit agreement, with the base rate subject to a rate floor of 2.25%) plus an applicable margin (varying from 1.0% to 1.5%). The revolving credit facility also carries a commitment fee varying from 0.375% to 0.5% of the available but unused borrowings. The applicable margins are calculated quarterly and vary based on our leverage ratio as set forth in the credit agreement.

Table of Contents

Prior to entering the revolving credit facility in January 2009, we terminated our prior $100.0 million revolving credit facility. The prior revolving credit facility was also collateralized by substantially all of our assets, other than our trademarks, and included covenants, conditions and other terms similar to our new revolving credit facility.

As of March 31, 2009, our net availability was $143.6 million based on our eligible domestic inventory and accounts receivable balances. The weighted average interest rate on the balances outstanding under the prior revolving credit facility was 1.4% and 4.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Long Term Debt

In March 2005, we entered into an agreement to finance the acquisition or lease of up to $17.0 million in qualifying capital investments. Loans under this agreement are collateralized by a first lien on the assets acquired. The agreement is not a committed facility, with each advance under the agreement subject to the lender’s approval. In March 2008, the lender agreed to increase the maximum financing under the agreement to $37.0 million.

In May 2008, we entered into an additional agreement to finance the acquisition or lease of up to $40.0 million in qualifying capital investments. Loans under this additional agreement are collateralized by a first lien on the assets acquired. This additional agreement is not a committed facility, with each advance under the agreement subject to the lender’s approval.

These agreements include a cross default provision whereby an event of default under other debt obligations, including the revolving credit facility agreement, will be considered an event of default under these agreements. Through March 31, 2009, we have financed $33.0 million of property and equipment under these agreements. The terms of our revolving credit facility limit the total amount of additional financing under these agreements to $35.0 million, of which $35.0 million is available as of March 31, 2009.

At March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the outstanding principal balances were $18.3 million and $20.1 million, respectively, under these agreements. Currently, advances under these agreements bear interest rates which are fixed at the time of each advance. The weighted average interest rates on outstanding borrowings were 5.9% and 6.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

We monitor the financial health and stability of our lenders under the revolving credit and long term debt facilities, however current significant instability in the credit markets could negatively impact lenders and their ability to perform under their facilities.

Contractual Commitments and Contingencies

There have been no significant changes to the contractual obligations reported in our 2008 Form 10-K.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In connection with various contracts and agreements, we have agreed to indemnify counterparties against certain third party claims relating to the infringement of intellectual property rights and other items that fall under the scope of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. Based on our historical experience and the estimated probability of future loss, we have determined that the fair value of such indemnifications is not material to our financial position or results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. To prepare these financial statements, we must make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. These estimates also affect our reported revenues and expenses. Judgments must be made about the disclosure of contingent liabilities as well. Actual results could be significantly different from these estimates.

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 of the audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2008 Form 10-K. The SEC’s Financial Reporting Release (“FRR”) No. 60, Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies (“FRR 60”), suggests companies provide additional disclosure on those accounting policies considered most critical. FRR 60 considers an accounting policy to be critical if it is important to our financial condition and results of operations and requires significant judgment and estimates on the part of management in its application. Our estimates are often based on complex judgments, probabilities and assumptions that management believes to be reasonable, but that are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. It is also possible that other professionals, applying reasonable judgment to the same facts and circumstances, could develop and support a range of alternative estimated amounts. For a complete discussion of our critical accounting policies, see the “Critical Accounting Policies” section of the MD&A in our 2008 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In June 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No. 03-06-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities (“FSP EITF 03-06-1”). FSP EITF 03-06-1 requires that unvested stock-based compensation awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) should be classified as participating securities and should be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method as described by SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. The provisions of FSP EITF 03-06-1 required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We have adopted FSP EITF 03-06-1 for current period computations of earnings per share, and have updated prior period computations of earnings per share as directed by FSP EITF 03-06-1. The adoption of FSP EITF 03-06-1 did not have a material impact on the Company’s computation of earnings per share.

In June 2008, the FASB issued EITF Issue No. 07-5, Determining Whether an Instrument (or an Embedded Feature) is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock (“EITF 07-5”). EITF 07-5 addresses the determination of whether provisions that introduce adjustment features (including contingent adjustment features) would prevent treating a derivative contract or an embedded derivative on a company’s own stock as indexed solely to the company’s stock. EITF 07-5 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of EITF 07-5 in the first quarter of 2009 did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. The provisions of SFAS 161 was effective for the fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. We adopted SFAS 161 and updated our consolidated financial statement disclosures in accordance with SFAS 161. The adoption of SFAS 161 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statement disclosures.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations (revised 2007) (“SFAS 141R”). SFAS 141R replaces SFAS 141 and requires the acquirer of a business to recognize and measure the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity at fair value. SFAS 141R also requires transaction costs related to the business combination to be expensed as incurred.

 

22


Table of Contents

SFAS 141R was effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the start of the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS 141R in the first quarter of 2009 did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements-an amendment of ARB No. 51 (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS 160 was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS 160 in the first quarter of 2009 did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 was effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, however the FASB delayed the effective date of SFAS 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, expect those items recognized or disclosed at fair value on an annual or more frequent basis. The adoption of SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities in the first quarter of 2009 did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Foreign Currency Exchange and Foreign Currency Risk Management and Derivatives

We currently generate a small amount of our consolidated net revenues in Canada and Europe. The reporting currency for our consolidated financial statements is the U.S. dollar. To date, net revenues generated outside of the United States have not been significant. However, as our net revenues generated outside of the United States increase, our results of operations could be adversely impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. For example, if we recognize international revenues in local foreign currencies (as we currently do in Canada and Europe) and if the U.S. dollar strengthens, it could have a negative impact on our international revenues upon translation of those results into the U.S. dollar upon consolidation of our financial statements. In addition, we are exposed to gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on transactions generated by our international subsidiaries in currencies other than their local currencies, primarily driven by inter-company transactions. These exposures are included in other income, net on the consolidated statements of income.

Since 2007, we have used foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the risk from exchange rate fluctuations on projected inventory purchases and inter-company transactions for our Canadian subsidiary. Beginning in December 2008, we began using foreign currency forward contracts in order to reduce the risk associated with foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on inter-company transactions for our European subsidiary. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. Based on the foreign currency forward contracts outstanding as of March 31, 2009, we receive US Dollars in exchange for Canadian Dollars at a weighted average contractual foreign currency exchange rate of 1.22 CAD per $1.00 and US Dollars in exchange for Euros at a weighted average contractual foreign currency exchange rate of 0.76 EUR per $1.00. As of March 31, 2009, the notional value of our outstanding forward contracts for our Canadian subsidiary was approximately $27.6 million with maturities of 1 to 5 months, and the notional value of our outstanding forward contracts for our European subsidiary was approximately $28.9 million with maturities of 1 month. The foreign currency forward contracts are not designated as cash flow hedges, and accordingly, changes in their fair value are recorded in other income, net on the consolidated statements of income. As of March 31, 2009, the fair value of our foreign currency forward contracts was $1.4 million which is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet.

Although we have entered into foreign currency forward contracts to minimize some of the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on future cash flows, we cannot be assured that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations will not have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our management has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely manner and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or that is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

From February 10, 2009 through March 18, 2009, we issued 132.4 thousand shares of Class A Common Stock upon the exercise of previously granted stock options to employees at a weighted average exercise price of $1.71 per share, for an aggregate amount of consideration of approximately $226.7 thousand.

The issuances of securities described above were made in reliance upon Section 4(2) under the Securities Act in that any issuance did not involve a public offering or under Rule 701 promulgated under the Securities Act, in that they were offered and sold either pursuant to written compensatory plans or pursuant to a written contract relating to compensation, as provided by Rule 701.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

On May 5, 2009, the Company’s stockholders approved the Amended and Restated 2005 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”). The 2005 Plan authorizes awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, unrestricted stock and unrestricted stock units and dividend equivalent rights. Awards may be made to an employee, officer or director of our Company, an affiliate of our Company, or a consultant or adviser providing services to our Company or an affiliate of our Company, or any other individual whose participation is determined by the Compensation Committee to be in the best interests of our Company. The 2005 Plan will terminate on November 18, 2015 (the ten-year anniversary of the original effective date of the plan).

Our Compensation Committee administers the 2005 Plan and has the authority to determine, among other things, who receives awards, what type of awards are granted, the number of shares of our Class A Stock subject to an award, the terms and conditions of each award and the form of each award agreement. The Committee has the authority to amend, modify or supplement the terms of any outstanding award, to interpret and administer the plan and any award agreement and to establish rules and regulations for the administration of the plan.

As amended and restated, the maximum number of shares of our Class A Stock available for issuance under the plan is 10,000,000. Any of the available shares may be issued pursuant to incentive stock options. The maximum number of shares of stock with respect to which stock options or stock appreciation rights may be granted in any calendar year to any one person is 1,000,000. Any shares covered by an award that are not purchased or are forfeited, settled in cash or otherwise terminated without delivery of shares to the award holder will be available for future grants under the 2005 Plan. Shares that are withheld from an award or surrendered in payment of any exercise price or taxes relating to the award will not be treated as delivered and will not reduce the shares available under the plan. The number and class of shares available under the 2005 Plan and/or subject to outstanding awards, as well as the maximum number of shares with respect to which stock options or stock appreciation rights may be granted in any calendar year to any one person, will be equitably adjusted in the event of various changes in the capitalization of our Company.

Unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, awards that would become vested within the twelve months following a change in control (as defined in the 2005 Plan) will be immediately vested on such change in control. The Committee has generally provided that all restricted stock and restricted stock units vest

upon a change in control. In the event of a recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, or other similar change affecting our Class A Stock, we will adjust proportionately and accordingly the number and kinds of shares for which awards may be made under the plan, including the maximum number of shares of Class A Stock with respect to which stock options or stock appreciation rights may be granted pursuant to the plan in any calendar year to any one person, and the number and kind of shares for which awards are outstanding so that the proportionate interest of the person holding the award immediately following such event will, to the extent practicable, be the same as immediately before such event.

Our Board of Directors may at any time amend, suspend, or terminate the 2005 Plan as to any awards which have not been made. An amendment will be contingent on approval of our stockholders to the extent stated by our Board, required by applicable law or required by applicable stock exchange listing requirements. No awards will be made after termination of the plan. No amendment, suspension, or termination of the plan will, without the consent of the holder of the award, impair rights or obligations under an outstanding award.

The 2005 Plan prohibits, without the approval of our stockholders, any amendment or modification of an outstanding stock option or stock appreciation right that reduces the exercise price of the award, either by lowering the exercise price or by canceling the outstanding award and granting a replacement award with a lower exercise price, or that otherwise would be treated as a repricing under the rules of The New York Stock Exchange or cause the award to be treated as deferred compensation subject to the limitations of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A.

A copy of the 2005 Plan is filed as Exhibit 10.01 to this Form 10-Q. The description of the 2005 Plan set forth in this section is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such plan.

To this end, the Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, unrestricted stock and dividend equivalent rights.

The Committee shall have full power and authority to take all actions and to make all determinations required or provided for under the Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement, and shall have full power and authority to take all such other actions and make all such other determinations not inconsistent with the specific terms and provisions of the Plan that the Committee deems to be necessary or appropriate to the administration of the Plan. The interpretation and construction by the Committee of any provision of the Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement shall be final, binding and conclusive. Without limitation, the Committee shall have full and final authority, subject to the other terms and conditions of the Plan, to:

 

  (i) designate Grantees,

 

  (ii) determine the type or types of Awards to be made to a Grantee,

 

  (iii) determine the number of shares of Stock to be subject to an Award,

(iv)   establish the terms and conditions of each Award (including, but not limited to, the Option Price of any Option, the nature and duration of any restriction or condition (or

Table of Contents

provision for lapse thereof) relating to the vesting, exercise, transfer, or forfeiture of an Award or the shares of Stock subject thereto, and any terms or conditions that may be necessary to qualify Options as Incentive Stock Options),

(v)     prescribe the form of each Award Agreement, and

(vi)    amend, modify, or supplement the terms of any outstanding Award, including the authority, in order to effectuate the purposes of the Plan, to modify Awards to foreign nationals or individuals who are employed outside the United States to recognize differences in local law, tax policy, or custom.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment or modification may be made to an outstanding Option or SAR that (i) causes the Option or SAR to become subject to Section 409A, (ii) reduces the Option Price or SAR Exercise Price, either by lowering the Option Price or SAR Exercise Price or by canceling the outstanding Option or SAR and granting a replacement Option or SAR with a lower Option Price or SAR Exercise Price, or (iii) would be treated as a repricing under the rules of The New York Stock Exchange or the otherwise applicable stock exchange without the approval of the stockholders of the Company; provided, that, appropriate adjustments may be made to outstanding Options and SARs pursuant to Section 15.

3.2.    No Liability.

No member of the Board or of the Committee shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan, any Award or Award Agreement.

3.3.    Book Entry.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, the Company may elect to satisfy any requirement under this Plan for the delivery of stock certificates through the use of book-entry.

 

4. STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 15 hereof, the maximum number of shares of Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall be 10.0 million. All such shares of Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall be available for issuance pursuant to Incentive Stock Options. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 15 hereof, the maximum number of shares of Stock with respect to which Options or Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted pursuant to the Plan in any calendar year to any one Service Provider or other participant in the Plan shall be 1.0 million.

The Committee may adopt reasonable counting procedures to ensure appropriate counting, avoid double counting (as, for example, in the case of tandem or substitute awards) and make adjustments in accordance with this Section 4. If the Option Price of any Option

 

5


Table of Contents

granted under the Plan, or if pursuant to Section 16.3 the withholding obligation of any Grantee with respect to an Option or other Award, is satisfied by tendering shares of Stock to the Company (by either actual delivery or by attestation) or by withholding shares of Stock, the number of shares of Stock issued net of the shares of Stock tendered or withheld shall be deemed delivered for purposes of determining the maximum number of shares of Stock available for delivery under the Plan. To the extent that an Award under the Plan is canceled, expired, forfeited, settled in cash, settled by issuance of fewer shares than the number underlying the Award, or otherwise terminated without delivery of shares to the Grantee, the shares retained by or returned to the Company will be available under the Plan; and shares that are withheld from such an Award or separately surrendered by the Grantee in payment of any exercise price or taxes relating to such an Award shall be deemed to constitute shares not delivered to the Grantee and will be available under the Plan.

 

5. EFFECTIVE DATE, DURATION AND AMENDMENTS

5.1.    Term.

The Plan shall be effective as of the Effective Date. No further Awards may be made under the Plan on or after the ten (10) year anniversary of the Effective Date.

5.2.    Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

The Board may, at any time and from time to time, amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan as to any Awards which have not been made. An amendment shall be contingent on approval of the Company’s stockholders to the extent stated by the Board, required by applicable law or required by applicable stock exchange listing requirements. No Awards shall be made after termination of the Plan. No amendment, suspension, or termination of the Plan shall, without the consent of the Grantee, impair rights or obligations under any Award theretofore awarded.

 

6. AWARD ELIGIBILITY AND LIMITATIONS

6.1.    Service Providers and Other Persons.

Subject to this Section 6, Awards may be made to: (i) any Service Provider, including any Service Provider who is an officer or director of the Company or of any Affiliate, as the Committee shall determine and designate from time to time, and (ii) any other individual whose participation in the Plan is determined to be in the best interests of the Company by the Committee.

6.2.    Successive Awards.

An eligible person may receive more than one Award, subject to such restrictions as are provided herein.

 

6


Table of Contents

6.3.    Stand-Alone, Additional, Tandem, and Substitute Awards.

Awards may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone or in addition to, in tandem with, or in substitution or exchange for, any other Award or any award granted under another plan of the Company, any Affiliate, or any business entity acquired by the Company or an Affiliate, or any other right of a Grantee to receive payment from the Company or any Affiliate. Such additional, tandem, and substitute or exchange Awards may be granted at any time. If an Award is granted in substitution or exchange for another Award, the Committee shall have the right to require the surrender of such other Award in consideration for the grant of the new Award.

 

7. AWARD AGREEMENT

Each Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement, in such form or forms as the Committee shall from time to time determine. Award Agreements granted from time to time or at the same time need not contain similar provisions but shall be consistent with the terms of the Plan. Each Award Agreement evidencing an Award of Options shall specify whether such Options are intended to be Non-qualified Stock Options or Incentive Stock Options, and in the absence of such specification such options shall be deemed Non-qualified Stock Options.

 

8. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS

8.1.    Option Price.

The Option Price of each Option shall be fixed by the Committee and stated in the related Award Agreement. The Option Price of each Option shall be at least the Fair Market Value on the grant date of a share of Stock; provided, however, that (a) in the event that a Grantee is a Ten Percent Stockholder as of the grant date, the Option Price of an Option granted to such Grantee that is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option shall be not less than 110 percent of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the grant date, and (b) with respect to Awards made in substitution for or in exchange for awards made by an entity acquired by the Company or an Affiliate, the Option Price does not need to be at least the Fair Market Value on the grant date.

8.2.    Vesting.

Subject to Section 8.3 hereof, each Option shall become exercisable at such times and under such conditions as shall be determined by the Committee and stated in the Award Agreement. For purposes of this Section 8.2, fractional numbers of shares of Stock subject to an Option shall be rounded down to the next nearest whole number.

8.3.    Term.

Each Option shall terminate, and all rights to purchase shares of Stock thereunder shall cease, upon the expiration of ten years from the grant date, or under such circumstances and on such date prior thereto as is set forth in the Plan or as may be fixed by the Committee and stated in the related Award Agreement (the “Termination Date”);

 

7


Table of Contents

provided, however, that in the event that the Grantee is a Ten Percent Stockholder, an Option granted to such Grantee that is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option at the grant date shall not be exercisable after the expiration of five years from its grant date.

8.4.    Termination of Service.

Each Award Agreement at the grant date shall set forth the extent to which the Grantee shall have the right to exercise the Option following termination of the Grantee’s Service. Such provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, need not be uniform among all Options issued, and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for termination of Service.

8.5.    Method of Exercise.

An Option that is exercisable may be exercised by the Grantee’s delivery to the Company of written notice of exercise on any business day, at the Company’s principal office, on the form specified by the Company. Such notice shall specify the number of shares of Stock with respect to which the Option is being exercised and shall be accompanied by payment in full of the Option Price of the shares for which the Option is being exercised plus the amount (if any) of federal and/or other taxes which the Company may, in its judgment, be required to withhold with respect to an Award.

8.6.    Rights of Holders of Options.

Unless otherwise stated in the related Award Agreement, an individual holding or exercising an Option shall have none of the rights of a stockholder (for example, the right to receive cash or dividend payments or distributions attributable to the subject shares of Stock or to direct the voting of the subject shares of Stock ) until the shares of Stock covered thereby are fully paid and issued to him. Except as provided in Section 15 hereof, no adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date of such issuance.

8.7.    Delivery of Stock Certificates.

Promptly after the exercise of an Option by a Grantee and the payment in full of the Option Price, such Grantee shall be entitled, subject to Section 3.3 hereof, to the issuance of a stock certificate or certificates evidencing his or her ownership of the shares of Stock subject to the Option.

8.8.    Transferability of Options.

Except as provided in Section 8.9, during the lifetime of a Grantee, only the Grantee (or, in the event of legal incapacity or incompetence, the Grantee’s guardian or legal representative) may exercise an Option. Except as provided in Section 8.9, no Option shall be assignable or transferable by the Grantee to whom it is granted, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

 

8


Table of Contents

8.9.    Family Transfers.

If authorized in the applicable Award Agreement, a Grantee may transfer, not for value, all or part of an Option which is not an Incentive Stock Option to any Family Member. For the purpose of this Section 8.9, a “not for value” transfer is a transfer which is (i) a gift, (ii) a transfer under a domestic relations order in settlement of marital property rights, or (iii) a transfer to an entity in which more than fifty percent of the voting interests are owned by Family Members (or the Grantee) in exchange for an interest in that entity. Following a transfer under this Section 8.9, any such Option shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to transfer. Subsequent transfers of transferred Options are prohibited except to Family Members of the original Grantee in accordance with this Section 8.9 or by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may also provide that Options may be transferred to persons other than Family Members. The events of termination of Service of Section 8.4 hereof shall continue to be applied with respect to the original Grantee, following which the Option shall be exercisable by the transferee only to the extent, and for the periods specified, in Section 8.4.

8.10.    Limitations on Incentive Stock Options.

An Option shall constitute an Incentive Stock Option only (i) if the Grantee of such Option is an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company; (ii) to the extent specifically provided in the related Award Agreement; and (iii) to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time the Option is granted) of the shares of Stock with respect to which all Incentive Stock Options held by such Grantee become exercisable for the first time during any calendar year (under the Plan and all other plans of the Grantee’s employer and its Affiliates) does not exceed $100,000. This limitation shall be applied by taking Options into account in the order in which they were granted.

 

9. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

9.1.    Right to Payment.

An SAR shall confer on the Grantee a right to receive, upon exercise thereof, the excess of (A) the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock on the date of exercise over (B) the SAR Exercise Price, as determined by the Committee. The Award Agreement for an SAR shall specify the SAR Exercise Price, which may be fixed at the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the grant date or may vary in accordance with a predetermined formula while the SAR is outstanding; provided that the SAR Exercise Price may not be less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the grant date, except with respect to Awards made in substitution for or in exchange for awards made by an entity acquired by the Company or an Affiliate, in which case the SAR Exercise Price does not need to be at least the Fair Market Value on the grant date. SARs may be granted alone or in conjunction with all or part of an Option or at any subsequent time during the term of such Option or in conjunction with all or part of any other Award. An SAR granted in tandem with an outstanding Option following the grant date of such Option may have a SAR Exercise Price

 

9


Table of Contents

that is equal to the Option Price; provided, however, that the SAR Exercise Price may not be less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the grant date of the SAR.

9.2.    Other Terms.

The Committee shall determine at the grant date or thereafter, the time or times at which and the circumstances under which an SAR may be exercised in whole or in part (including based on achievement of performance goals and/or future service requirements), the time or times at which SARs shall cease to be or become exercisable following termination of Service or upon other conditions, the method of exercise, method of settlement, form of consideration payable in settlement, method by or forms in which Stock will be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Grantees, whether or not an SAR shall be in tandem or in combination with any other Award, and any other terms and conditions of any SAR.

 

10. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK AND RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

10.1.    Restrictions.

At the time of grant, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, establish a period of time (a “restricted period”) and any additional restrictions including the satisfaction of corporate or individual performance objectives applicable to an Award of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units. Each Award of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units may be subject to a different restricted period and additional restrictions. Neither Restricted Stock nor Restricted Stock Units may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of during the restricted period or prior to the satisfaction of any other applicable restrictions.

10.2.    Restricted Stock Certificates.

The Company shall issue, in the name of each Grantee to whom Restricted Stock has been granted, stock certificates or other evidence of ownership, subject to Section 3.3 hereof, representing the total number of shares of Restricted Stock granted to the Grantee, as soon as reasonably practicable after the grant date. The Committee may provide in an Award Agreement that either (i) the Secretary of the Company shall hold such certificates for the Grantee’s benefit until such time as the Restricted Stock is forfeited to the Company or the restrictions lapse, or (ii) such certificates shall be delivered to the Grantee, provided, however, that such certificates shall bear a legend or legends that comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and makes appropriate reference to the restrictions imposed under the Plan and the Award Agreement.

10.3.    Rights of Holders of Restricted Stock.

Unless the Committee otherwise provides in an Award Agreement, holders of Restricted Stock shall have the right to vote such Stock and the right to receive any dividends declared or paid with respect to such Stock. The Committee may provide that any dividends

 

10


Table of Contents

paid on Restricted Stock must be reinvested in shares of Stock, which may or may not be subject to the same restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock. All distributions, if any, received by a Grantee with respect to Restricted Stock as a result of any stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares, or other similar transaction shall be subject to the restrictions applicable to the original Award.

10.4.    Rights of Holders of Restricted Stock Units.

10.4.1.    Settlement of Restricted Stock Units.

Restricted Stock Units may be settled in cash or Stock, as determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement.

10.4.2.    Voting and Dividend Rights.

Holders of Restricted Stock Units shall have no rights as stockholders of the Company. The Committee may provide in an Award Agreement that the holder of such Restricted Stock Units shall be entitled to receive, upon the Company’s payment of a cash dividend on its outstanding Stock, a cash payment for each Restricted Stock Unit held equal to the per-share dividend paid on the Stock, which may be deemed reinvested in additional Restricted Stock Units at a price per unit equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date that such dividend is paid to shareholders.

10.4.3.    Creditor’s Rights.

A holder of Restricted Stock Units shall have no rights other than those of a general creditor of the Company. Restricted Stock Units represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Award Agreement.

10.5.    Termination of Service.

Unless the Committee otherwise provides in an Award Agreement or in writing after the Award Agreement is issued, upon the termination of a Grantee’s Service, any Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units held by such Grantee that have not vested, or with respect to which all applicable restrictions and conditions have not lapsed, shall immediately be deemed forfeited, and the Grantee shall have no further rights with respect to such Award.

10.6.    Consideration.

The Committee may grant Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units to a Grantee in respect of Services rendered and other valid consideration, or in lieu of, or in addition to, any cash compensation due to such Grantee.

 

11


Table of Contents

10.7.    Delivery of Stock.

Upon the expiration or termination of any restricted period and the satisfaction of any other conditions prescribed by the Committee, the restrictions applicable to shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units settled in Stock shall lapse, and, unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, subject to Section 3.3 hereof, a stock certificate for such shares shall be delivered, free of all such restrictions, to the Grantee or the Grantee’s beneficiary or estate, as the case may be.

 

11. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF UNRESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS

The Committee may, in its sole discretion, grant (or sell at a Purchase Price determined by the Committee) an Award of unrestricted stock or unrestricted stock units to any Grantee pursuant to which such Grantee may receive shares of Stock free of any restrictions (“Unrestricted Stock”) under the Plan. Awards of Unrestricted Stock may be granted or sold as described in the preceding sentence in respect of Services rendered and other valid consideration, or in lieu of, or in addition to, any cash compensation due to such Grantee. The provisions of Section 10.4 shall apply to any awards of unrestricted stock units.

 

12. FORM OF PAYMENT FOR AWARDS

12.1.    General Rule.

Payment of the Option Price for the shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option or the Purchase Price, if any, for Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Unrestricted Stock, shall be made in cash or in cash equivalents acceptable to the Company, except as provided in this Section 12.

12.2.    Surrender of Stock.

To the extent the Award Agreement so provides, payment of the Option Price for shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option or the Purchase Price, if any, for Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Unrestricted Stock may be made all or in part through the tender to the Company of shares of Stock, which shall be valued, for purposes of determining the extent to which the Option Price or Purchase Price has been paid thereby, at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise or surrender.

12.3.    Cashless Exercise.

To the extent permitted by law and to the extent the Award Agreement so provides, payment of the Option Price may be made all or in part by delivery (on a form acceptable to the Committee) of an irrevocable direction to a licensed securities broker acceptable to the Company to sell shares of Stock and to deliver all or part of the sales proceeds to the Company in payment of the Option Price and any withholding taxes described in Section 16.3.

 

12


Table of Contents

12.4.    Other Forms of Payment.

To the extent the Award Agreement so provides, payment of the Option Price or the Purchase Price may be made in any other form that is consistent with applicable laws, regulations and rules.

 

13. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF DIVIDEND EQUIVALENT RIGHTS

13.1.    Dividend Equivalent Rights.

A Dividend Equivalent Right is an Award entitling the Grantee to receive credits based on cash or stock distributions that would have been paid on the shares of Stock specified in the Dividend Equivalent Right (or other award to which it relates) if such shares had been issued to and held by the Grantee. A Dividend Equivalent Right may be granted hereunder to any Grantee as a component of another award or as a freestanding Award. The terms and conditions of Dividend Equivalent Rights shall be specified in the Award Agreement. Dividend equivalents credited to the holder of a Dividend Equivalent Right may be paid currently or may be deemed to be reinvested in additional shares of Stock, which may thereafter accrue additional equivalents. Any such reinvestment shall be at Fair Market Value on the date of reinvestment. Dividend Equivalent Rights may be settled in cash or Stock or a combination thereof, in a single installment or installments, all determined in the sole discretion of the Committee. A Dividend Equivalent Right granted as a component of another award may provide that such Dividend Equivalent Right shall be settled upon exercise, settlement, or payment of, or lapse of restrictions on, such other award, and that such Dividend Equivalent Right shall expire or be forfeited or annulled under the same conditions as such other award. A Dividend Equivalent Right granted as a component of another Award may also contain terms and conditions different from such other award. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 13.1 to the contrary, no Dividend Equivalent Right may provide for settlement directly or indirectly contingent upon the exercise of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right.

13.2.    Termination of Service.

Except as may otherwise be provided by the Committee either in the Award Agreement or in writing after the Award Agreement is issued, a Grantee’s rights in all Dividend Equivalent Rights shall automatically terminate upon the Grantee’s termination of Service for any reason.

 

14. REQUIREMENTS OF LAW

14.1.    General.

The Company shall not be required to sell or issue any shares of Stock under any Award if the sale or issuance of such shares would constitute a violation by the Grantee, any other individual exercising an Option, or the Company of any provision of any law or regulation of any governmental authority, including without limitation any federal or state securities laws or regulations. If at any time the Company shall determine, in its discretion,

 

13


Table of Contents

that the listing, registration or qualification of any shares subject to an Award upon any securities exchange or under any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the issuance or purchase of shares hereunder, no shares of Stock may be issued or sold to the Grantee or any other individual exercising an Option pursuant to such Award unless such listing, registration or qualification shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company, and any delay caused thereby shall in no way affect the date of termination of the Award. Specifically, in connection with the Securities Act, upon the exercise of any Option or the delivery of any shares of Stock underlying an Award, unless a registration statement under such Act is in effect with respect to the shares of Stock covered by such Award, the Company shall not be required to sell or issue such shares unless the Committee has received evidence satisfactory to it that the Grantee or any other individual exercising an Option may acquire such shares pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Any determination in this connection by the Committee shall be final, binding, and conclusive. The Company may, but shall in no event be obligated to, register any securities covered hereby pursuant to the Securities Act. The Company shall not be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the exercise of an Option or the issuance of shares of Stock pursuant to the Plan to comply with any law or regulation of any governmental authority. As to any jurisdiction that expressly imposes the requirement that an Option shall not be exercisable until the shares of Stock covered by such Option are registered or are exempt from registration, the exercise of such Option (under circumstances in which the laws of such jurisdiction apply) shall be deemed conditioned upon the effectiveness of such registration or the availability of such an exemption.

14.2.    Rule 16b-3.

During any time when the Company has a class of equity security registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, it is the intent of the Company that Awards and the exercise of Options granted hereunder will qualify for the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act.

 

15. EFFECT OF CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION

15.1.    Changes in Stock.

If the number of outstanding shares of Stock is increased or decreased or the shares of Stock are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company on account of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse split, combination of shares, exchange of shares, stock dividend or other distribution payable in capital stock, or other increase or decrease in such shares effected without receipt of consideration by the Company occurring after the Effective Date, the number and kinds of shares for which grants of Options and other Awards may be made under the Plan, including the maximum number of shares of Stock with respect to which Options or Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted pursuant to the Plan in any calendar year to any one Service Provider or other participant in the Plan, shall be adjusted proportionately and accordingly by the Company; provided that any such adjustment shall comply with Section 409A. In addition, the number and kind of shares for which Awards are outstanding shall be adjusted

 

14


Table of Contents

proportionately and accordingly so that the proportionate interest of the Grantee immediately following such event shall, to the extent practicable, be the same as immediately before such event. Any such adjustment in outstanding Options or SARs shall not change the aggregate Option Price or SAR Exercise Price payable with respect to shares that are subject to the unexercised portion of an outstanding Option or SAR, as applicable, but shall include a corresponding proportionate adjustment in the Option Price or SAR Exercise Price per share. The conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as an increase in shares effected without receipt of consideration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any distribution to the Company’s stockholders of securities of any other entity or other assets (including an extraordinary cash dividend but excluding a non-extraordinary dividend payable in cash or in stock of the Company) without receipt of consideration by the Company, the Company may, in such manner as the Company deems appropriate, adjust (i) the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding Awards and/or (ii) the exercise price of outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights to reflect such distribution.

15.2.    Definition of Change in Control.

“Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following:

 

  a. Any ‘person’ (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) becomes the ‘beneficial owner’ (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the total voting power represented by the Company’s then-outstanding voting securities, provided, however, that a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur if an employee benefit plan (or a trust forming a part thereof) maintained by the Company, and/or Kevin Plank and/or his immediate family members, directly or indirectly, become the beneficial owner, of more than fifty percent (50%) of the then-outstanding voting securities of the Company after such acquisition;

 

  b. A change in the composition of the Board occurring within a two-year period, as a result of which fewer than a majority of the directors are Incumbent Directors. ‘Incumbent Directors’ shall mean directors who either (A) are directors of the Company as of the Effective Date, or (B) are elected, or nominated for election, to the Board with the affirmative votes of at least a majority of the Incumbent Directors at the time of such election or nomination (but shall not include an individual whose election or nomination is in connection with an actual or threatened proxy contest relating to the election of directors to the Company);

 

  c.

The consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in (a) the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) at least fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power represented

 

15


Table of Contents
 

by the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation in substantially the same proportion as prior to such merger or consolidation; or (b) the directors of the Company immediately prior thereto continuing to represent at least fifty percent (50%) of the directors of the Company or such surviving entity immediately after such merger or consolidation; or

 

  d. The consummation of the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets.

15.3.    Effect of Change in Control

The Committee shall determine the effect of a Change in Control upon Awards, and such effect shall be set forth in the appropriate Award Agreement. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, Awards that would become vested within the twelve months following the effective date of such Change in Control shall be immediately vested on such Change in Control. The Committee may provide in the Award Agreements at the time of grant, or any time thereafter with the consent of the Grantee, the actions that will be taken upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, including, but not limited to, accelerated vesting, termination or assumption. The Committee may also provide in the Award Agreements at the time of grant, or any time thereafter with the consent of the Grantee, for different provisions to apply to an Award in place of those described in Sections 15.1 and 15.2. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 15.3, (i) no Change in Control shall trigger payment of an Award subject to the requirements of Section 409A unless such Change in Control qualifies as a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company, or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company, as described in Section 409A, and (ii) any Award that otherwise is intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A shall not be amended or modified (directly or indirectly, in form or operation) to the extent such amendment or modification would cause compensation deferred under the applicable Award (and applicable earnings) to be included in income under Section 409A.

15.4.    Reorganization, Merger or Consolidation.

If the Company undergoes any reorganization, merger, or consolidation of the Company with one or more other entities and there is a continuation, assumption or substitution of Options and SARs in connection with such transaction, any Option or SAR theretofore granted pursuant to the Plan shall pertain to and apply to the securities to which a holder of the number of shares of Stock subject to such Option or SAR would have been entitled immediately following such reorganization, merger, or consolidation, with a corresponding proportionate adjustment of the Option Price or SAR Exercise Price per share so that the aggregate Option Price or SAR Exercise Price thereafter shall be the same as the aggregate Option Price or SAR Exercise Price of the shares remaining subject to the Option or SAR immediately prior to such reorganization, merger, or consolidation. Subject to any contrary language in an Award Agreement, any restrictions applicable to such Award shall apply as well to any replacement shares received by the Grantee as a result of the reorganization, merger or consolidation.

 

16


Table of Contents

If the Company undergoes any reorganization, merger, or consolidation of the Company with one or more other entities and there is not a continuation, assumption or substitution of Options and SARs in connection with such transaction, then in the discretion and at the direction of the Committee, each Option and SAR may be canceled unilaterally in exchange for the same consideration that the Grantee otherwise would receive as a shareholder of the Company in connection with such transaction (or cash equal to such consideration) if the Grantee held the number of shares of Stock obtained by dividing (i) the excess of the Fair Market Value of the number of such shares which remain subject to the exercise of the vested portion of such Option or SAR immediately before such Change in Control over the total Option Price or SAR Exercise Price for such vested portion, as the case may be, by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on such date, which number shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number.

15.5.    Adjustments.

Adjustments under this Section 15 related to shares of Stock or securities of the Company shall be made by the Committee, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. No fractional shares or other securities shall be issued pursuant to any such adjustment, and any fractions resulting from any such adjustment shall be eliminated in each case by rounding downward to the nearest whole share.

15.6.    No Limitations on Company.

The making of Awards pursuant to the Plan shall not affect or limit in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations, or changes of its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, or liquidate, or to sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

 

16. GENERAL PROVISIONS

16.1.    Disclaimer of Rights.

No provision in the Plan or in any Award Agreement shall be construed to confer upon any individual the right to remain in the employ or service of the Company or any Affiliate, or to interfere in any way with any contractual or other right or authority of the Company either to increase or decrease the compensation or other payments to any individual at any time, or to terminate any employment or other relationship between any individual and the Company. In addition, notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, unless otherwise stated in the applicable Award Agreement, no Award granted under the Plan shall be affected by any change of duties or position of the Grantee, so long as such Grantee continues to be a Service Provider, if applicable. The obligation of the Company to pay any benefits pursuant to this Plan shall be interpreted as a contractual obligation to pay only those amounts described herein, in the manner and under the conditions prescribed herein. The Plan shall in no way be interpreted to require the Company to transfer any

 

17


Table of Contents

amounts to a third party trustee or otherwise hold any amounts in trust or escrow for payment to any Grantee or beneficiary under the terms of the Plan.

16.2.    Nonexclusivity of the Plan.

Neither the adoption of the Plan nor the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations upon the right and authority of the Board to adopt such other incentive compensation arrangements (which arrangements may be applicable either generally to a class or classes of individuals or specifically to a particular individual or particular individuals), including, without limitation, the granting of stock options as the Board in its discretion determines desirable.

16.3.    Withholding Taxes.

The Company or an Affiliate, as the case may be, shall have the right to deduct from payments of any kind otherwise due to a Grantee any federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld (i) with respect to the vesting of or other lapse of restrictions applicable to an Award, (ii) upon the issuance of any shares of Stock upon the exercise of an Option, or (iii) pursuant to an Award. At the time of such vesting, lapse, or exercise, the Grantee shall pay to the Company or the Affiliate, as the case may be, any amount that the Company or the Affiliate may reasonably determine to be necessary to satisfy such withholding obligation. Subject to the prior approval of the Company or the Affiliate, which may be withheld by the Company or the Affiliate, as the case may be, in its sole discretion, the Grantee may elect to satisfy such obligations, in whole or in part, (i) by causing the Company or the Affiliate to withhold shares of Stock otherwise issuable to the Grantee or (ii) by delivering to the Company or the Affiliate shares of Stock already owned by the Grantee. The shares of Stock so delivered or withheld shall have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to such withholding obligations. A Grantee who has made an election pursuant to this Section 16.3 may satisfy his or her withholding obligation only with shares of Stock that are not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting, or other similar requirements.

16.4.    Captions.

The use of captions in this Plan or any Award Agreement is for the convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning of any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement.

16.5.    Other Provisions.

Each Award Agreement may contain such other terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion.

16.6.    Number and Gender.

 

18


Table of Contents

With respect to words used in this Plan, the singular form shall include the plural form, the masculine gender shall include the feminine gender, etc., as the context requires.

16.7.    Severability.

If any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable by any court of law in any jurisdiction, the remaining provisions hereof and thereof shall be severable and enforceable in accordance with their terms, and all provisions shall remain enforceable in any other jurisdiction.

16.8.    Governing Law.

The validity and construction of this Plan and the instruments evidencing the Award hereunder shall be governed by the laws of the State of Maryland, other than any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Plan and the instruments evidencing the Awards granted hereunder to the substantive laws of any other jurisdiction.

16.9.    Section 409A.

It is intended that each Award either be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A or will comply (in form and operation) with Section 409A so that compensation deferred under an applicable Award (and any applicable earnings) will not be included in income under Section 409A. Any ambiguities in this Plan will be construed to affect the intent as described in this Section 16.9. If an Award is subject to Section 409A, the Award Agreement will satisfy the written documentation requirement of Section 409A either directly or by incorporation by reference to other documents.

THIS OPTION GRANT AGREEMENT, made as of the      day of                     ,                      between UNDER ARMOUR, INC. (the “Company”) and                              (the “Grantee”).

WHEREAS, the Company has adopted and maintains the 2005 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan as amended and restated effective as of May 5, 2009 (the “Plan”), attached hereto as Attachment A, or otherwise delivered or made available to Grantee, to promote the interests of the Company and its stockholders by providing key employees and others with an appropriate incentive to encourage them to continue in the employ or service of the Company and to improve the growth and profitability of the Company;

WHEREAS, the Plan provides for the grant to Grantees of Options to purchase Stock of the Company;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1.    Grant of Options.  Pursuant to, and subject to, the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan, and further subject to the approval by the Company’s stockholders of the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Grantee a non-qualified stock option (the “Option”) with respect to                      shares of Stock of the Company.

2.    Grant Date.  The Grant Date of the Option hereby granted is                     .

3.    Incorporation of Plan.  All terms, conditions and restrictions of the Plan are incorporated herein and made part hereof as if stated herein. If there is any conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Option Grant Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Option Grant Agreement, as interpreted by the Committee in its sole discretion, shall govern, unless explicitly provided to the contrary in the Plan or this Option Grant Agreement. Unless otherwise indicated herein, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning given to such terms in the Plan.

4.    Option Price.  The exercise price per share of Stock underlying the Option granted hereby is $            .

5.    Vesting.  Except as provided in Section 9 and unless the Option has earlier terminated pursuant to this Agreement, the Option shall become exercisable as follows provided the Grantee remains employed by the Company on each such date:

(a)    If the combined Operating Income for the Company for              and              is at least equal to $            , then 50% of the shares of Stock underlying the Option shall become exercisable on February 15,                  and 50% of the shares of Stock underlying the Option shall become exercisable on February 15,                     ;

(b)    If the combined Operating Income for the Company for                      and                      is equal to or greater than $             but less than $            , then 45% of the shares of Stock underlying the Option shall become exercisable on February 15,                  and 45% of the shares of Stock underlying the Option shall become exercisable on February 15,                 ;


As used in this Section 5, the term “Operating Income” shall mean the Company’s income from operations as reported in the Company’s audited financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles excluding the impact of any generally accepted accounting principle changes implemented after the date hereof.

6.    Term.  Unless the Option has earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Option Grant Agreement or the Plan, all unexercised portions of the Option shall terminate, and all rights to purchase shares of stock thereunder shall cease, upon the expiration of ten years from the Grant Date.

7.    Employment Confidentiality Agreement.  As a condition to the grant of the Option, Grantee shall have executed and become a party to the Employee Confidentiality, Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement by and between Grantee and the Company (the “Confidentiality, Non-Compete and Non-Solicitation Agreement”) attached hereto as Attachment B.

8.    Forfeiture.  If Grantee should take any actions in violation of the Confidentiality, Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement, or in violation of any non-competition agreement entered into between the Grantee and the Company, it will be considered grounds for termination for Cause as defined in Section 9(a) of this Agreement, and all unexercised portions of the Option, whether vested or not, will terminate, be forfeited and will lapse, as provided in Section 9(a).

9.    Termination of Service.

(a)    Termination of Service for Cause.  Unless the Option has earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Option Grant Agreement or the Plan, all unexercised portions of the Option, whether vested or unvested, will terminate and be forfeited upon a termination of the Grantee’s Service for Cause. For purposes of this Option Grant Agreement only, “Cause” shall be defined as any of the following:

i. the Grantee’s material misconduct or neglect in the performance of his duties;

ii. the Grantee’s conviction for, or plea of nolo contendere to any felony, or a misdemeanor (excluding a petty misdemeanor) involving dishonesty, fraud, financial impropriety, or moral turpitude, or any crime of sufficient import to potentially discredit or adversely affect the Company’s ability to conduct its business in the normal course;

iii. the Grantee’s use of illegal drugs;

iv. the Grantee’s material breach of the Company’s written Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, as in effect from time to time;

v. the Grantee’s material breach of this Agreement, including but not limited to breach of the Confidentiality, Non-Compete and Non-Solicitation Agreement attached hereto as Attachment B; or

vi. Grantee’s commission of any act that results in severe harm to the Company excluding any act taken by the Grantee in good faith that he reasonably believed was in the best interest of the Company.

(b)    Termination of Service other than for Cause.  Unless the Option has earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Option Grant Agreement or the Plan, the vested portion of the Option shall terminate one hundred eighty (180) days following the termination of the Grantee’s Service due to death or Disability and thirty (30) days following the termination of


the Grantee’s Service for any other reason other than for Cause. The Grantee (or the Grantee’s guardian, legal representative, executor, personal representative or the person to whom the Option shall have been transferred by will or the laws of descent and distribution, as the case may be) may exercise all or any part of the vested portion of the Option during such post termination of employment period, but not later than the end of the term of the Option. Any portion of the Option which is unvested as of the date of termination of service shall immediately terminate.

Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a contract of employment between the Company (or an affiliate) and Grantee, or as a contractual right of Grantee to continue in the employ of the Company (or an affiliate), or as a limitation of the right of the Company (or an affiliate) to discharge Grantee at any time for any reason, including reasons other than for Cause as defined herein.

10.    Effect of a Change in Control.  In the event of a Change in Control, all of the shares of Stock underlying the Option as provided in Section 1 hereof shall be immediately vested on such Change in Control.

11.    Delays or Omissions.  No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party hereto upon any breach or default of any party under this Option Grant Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party of any breach or default under this Option Grant Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any party or any provisions or conditions of this Option Grant Agreement, shall be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.

12.    Transferability of Options.  During the lifetime of the Grantee, only the Grantee or a Family Member who received all or part of the Option, not for value, (or, in the event of legal incapacity or incompetence, the Grantee’s guardian or legal representative) may exercise the Option. The Option shall not be assignable or transferable by the Grantee other than to a Family Member, not for value, or by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

13.    Manner of Exercise.  The vested portion of the Option may be exercised, in whole or in part, by delivering written notice to the Stock Option Administrator designated by the Company. Such notice may be in electronic or other form as used by the Stock Option Administrator in its ordinary course of business and as may be amended from time to time, and shall:

(a)    state the election to exercise the Option and the number of shares in respect of which it is being exercised;

(b)    be accompanied by (i) cash, check, bank draft or money order in the amount of the Option Price payable to the order of the Stock Option Administrator designated by the Company; or (ii) certificates for shares of the Company’s Stock (together with duly executed stock powers) or other written authorization as may be required by the Company to transfer shares of such Stock to the Company, with an aggregate value equal to the Option Price of the Stock being acquired; or (iii) a combination of the consideration described in clauses (i) and (ii). Grantee may transfer Stock to pay the Option Price for Stock being acquired pursuant to clauses (ii) and (iii) above only if such transferred Stock (x) was acquired by the Grantee in open market transactions, (y) has been owned by Grantee for longer than six months, and (z) the Grantee is not subject to any other restrictions on transferring Company securities pursuant to Company policy or federal law.

In addition to the exercise methods described above and subject to other restrictions which may apply, the Grantee may exercise the Option through a procedure known as a “cashless exercise,” whereby the Grantee delivers to the Stock Option Administrator designated by the Company an


irrevocable notice of exercise in exchange for the Company issuing shares of the Company’s Stock subject to the Option to a broker previously designated or approved by the Company, versus payment of the Option Price by the broker to the Company, to the extent permitted by the Committee or the Company and subject to such rules and procedures as the Committee or the Company may determine.

14.    Integration.  This Option Grant Agreement, and the other documents referred to herein or delivered pursuant hereto, which form a part hereof contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to its subject matter and there are no restrictions, agreements, promises, representations, warranties, covenants or undertakings with respect to the subject matter hereof other than those expressly set forth in such documents. This Option Grant Agreement and the Plan supersede all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to its subject matter.

15.    Electronic Delivery.  The Company may choose to deliver certain statutory materials relating to the Plan in electronic form. By accepting this grant Grantee agrees that the Company may deliver the Plan prospectus and the Company’s annual report to Grantee in an electronic format. If at any time Grantee would prefer to receive paper copies of these documents, as Grantee is entitled to receive, the Company would be pleased to provide copies. Grantee should contact the Stock Plan Administrator to request paper copies of these documents.

16.    Counterparts.  This Option Grant Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

17.    Governing Law.  This Option Grant Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland without regard to the provisions thereof governing conflict of laws.

18.    Grantee Acknowledgment.  The Grantee hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and that the Option is subject to the terms of the Plan. The Participant hereby acknowledges that all decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Committee in respect of the Plan, this Option Grant Agreement and the Option shall be final and conclusive.


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Option Grant Agreement to be duly executed by its duly authorized officer and said Participant has hereunto signed this Option Grant Agreement on his own behalf, thereby representing that he has carefully read and understands this Option Grant Agreement and the Plan as of the day and year first written above.

As used in this Section 5, the term “Operating Income” shall mean the Company’s income from operations as reported in the Company’s audited financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles excluding the impact of any generally accepted accounting principle changes implemented after the date hereof.

6.    Term.  Unless the Option has earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Option Grant Agreement or the Plan, all unexercised portions of the Option shall terminate, and all rights to purchase shares of stock thereunder shall cease, upon the expiration of ten years from the Grant Date.

7.    Employment Confidentiality Agreement.  As a condition to the grant of the Option, Grantee shall have executed and become a party to the Employee Confidentiality, Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement by and between Grantee and the Company (the “Confidentiality, Non-Compete and Non-Solicitation Agreement”) attached hereto as Attachment B.

8.    Forfeiture.  If Grantee should take any actions in violation of the Confidentiality, Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement, or in violation of any non-competition agreement entered into between the Grantee and the Company, it will be considered grounds for termination for Cause as defined in Section 9(a) of this Agreement, and all unexercised portions of the Option, whether vested or not, will terminate, be forfeited and will lapse, as provided in Section 9(a).

(a)    Termination of Service for Cause.  Unless the Option has earlier terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Option Grant Agreement or the Plan, all unexercised portions of the Option, whether vested or unvested, will terminate and be forfeited upon a termination of the Grantee’s Service for Cause. For purposes of this Option Grant Agreement only, “Cause” shall be defined as any of the following:

i. the Grantee’s material misconduct or neglect in the performance of his duties;

ii. the Grantee’s conviction for, or plea of nolo contendere to any felony, or a misdemeanor (excluding a petty misdemeanor) involving dishonesty, fraud, financial impropriety, or moral turpitude, or any crime of sufficient import to

vi. Grantee’s commission of any act that results in severe harm to the Company excluding any act taken by the Grantee in good faith that he reasonably believed was in the best interest of the Company.

The Grantee (or the Grantee’s guardian, legal representative, executor, personal representative or the person to whom the Option shall have been transferred by will or the laws of descent and distribution, as the case may be) may exercise all or any part of the vested portion of the Option during such post termination of employment period, but not later than the end of the term of the Option. Any portion of the Option which is unvested as of the date of termination of service shall immediately terminate.

Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a contract of employment between the Company (or an affiliate) and Grantee, or as a contractual right of Grantee to continue in the employ of the Company (or an affiliate), or as a limitation of the right of the Company (or an affiliate) to discharge Grantee at any time for any reason, including reasons other than for Cause as defined herein.

10.    Effect of a Change in Control.  In the event of a Change in Control, then all of the shares of Stock underlying the Option as provided in Section 1 hereof shall be immediately vested on such Change in Control.

11.    Delays or Omissions.  No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party hereto upon any breach or default of any party under this Option Grant Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party of any breach or default under this Option Grant Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any party or any provisions or conditions of this Option Grant Agreement, shall be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.

12.    Transferability of Options.  During the lifetime of the Grantee, only the Grantee or a Family Member who received all or part of the Option, not for value, (or, in the event of legal incapacity or incompetence, the Grantee’s guardian or legal representative) may exercise the Option. The Option shall not be assignable or transferable by the Grantee other than to a Family Member, not for value, or by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

13.    Manner of Exercise.  The vested portion of the Option may be exercised, in whole or in part, by delivering written notice to the Stock Option Administrator designated by the Company.

 

3
