Description

The American Annuity Group 1994 Directors Stock Appreciation Rights Plan is designed to attract and retain talented non-employee directors by granting them Stock Appreciation Rights (SARs). Effective from March 2, 1994, the Plan allows for automatic grants of SARs to eligible directors, starting with 10,000 SARs on the effective date and subsequent annual grants of 1,000 SARs. Each SAR represents one share of Common Stock, and the total number of SARs is capped at 500,000. The administration of the Plan falls under the Organization and Policy Committee of the Board of Directors, which also sets specific terms and conditions for the SARs granted. This Plan is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants as it outlines clear eligibility criteria, grant mechanisms, and vesting schedules. Notably, SARs become 100% vested upon certain events, such as death or disability, granting essential financial flexibility and security to directors. Furthermore, legal practitioners will find the Plan beneficial for ensuring compliance with SEcurities regulations and effectively navigating the nuances of director compensation structures.

FAQ

Hear this out loud PauseDefinition and Examples of Stock Appreciation Rights For example, let's say you were granted stock appreciation rights on 10 shares of your company ABC's stock, valued at $10 per share. Over time, the share price increases from $10 to $12. This means you'd receive $2 per share since that was the increased value.

Hear this out loud PauseStock appreciation rights (SARs) are a type of employee compensation linked to the company's stock price during a preset period. Unlike stock options, SARs are often paid in cash and do not require the employee to own any asset or contract.

Hear this out loud PauseIn accounting, the process that the company uses to record SAR agreements is to accrue a liability and recognize expense over the term of service. At the end of the service period, the liability is settled in cash or stock (or both).

A stock appreciation right is a form of incentive or deferred compensation that ties part of your income to the performance of your company's stock. It gives you the right to the monetary equivalent of the appreciation in the value of a specified number of shares over a specified period of time.

SARs are taxed the same way as non-qualified stock options (NSOs). There are no tax consequences of any kind on either the grant date or when they are vested. However, participants must recognize ordinary income on the spread at the time of exercise. 2 Most employers will also withhold supplemental federal income tax.
