Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable and can be corroborated by observable market data.
|
Level 3:
|
Inputs reflect management’s best estimates and assumptions of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs are unobservable in the market and significant to the valuation of the instruments.

Incentive Stock Option
|
The ISOs identified in the Notice of Grant are intended to be an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code and will be interpreted accordingly. If you cease to be an employee of the Company, its parent or a subsidiary (“Employee”) but continue to provide Service, this option may be deemed a nonstatutory stock option three months after you cease to be an Employee if allowed under the terms of the LTI Plan. In addition, to the extent that all or part of this option exceeds the $100,000 rule of section 422(d) of the Internal Revenue Code, this option or the lesser excess part will be deemed to be a nonstatutory stock option.
|
Non-Qualified Stock Option
|
The NQs identified in the Notice of Grant are not intended to be ISOs under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code and will be interpreted accordingly.
|
Vesting
|
This option is performance based and only vests if the Company meets or exceeds the performance metrics outlined in the LTI Plan. This option is only exercisable before it expires and then only with respect to the vested portion of the option. Subject to the preceding sentence, you may exercise this option, in whole or in part, to purchase a whole number of vested shares not less than 100 shares, unless the number of shares purchased is the total number available for purchase under the option, by following the procedures set forth in the 2008 Plan.
|
Term
|
If vested, your option will expire in any event at the close of business at Company headquarters on the day before the 10th anniversary of the Grant Date, as shown in the Notice of Grant. As set forth in the LTI Plan, if this option does not vest as a result of meeting the performance metrics in the LTI Plan, it will expire. Your option will expire earlier if your Service terminates, as described below.
|
Termination
|
If your Service terminates for any reason, then you shall immediately forfeit all rights to your option and the option shall immediately expire.
|
Notice of Exercise
|
When you wish to exercise this option, you must notify the Company by filing the proper “Notice of Exercise” form at the address given on the form. Your notice must specify how many shares you wish to purchase (in a parcel of at least 100 shares generally). Your notice must also specify how your shares of Stock should be registered (e.g. in your name only or in your and your spouse's names as joint tenants with right of survivorship). The notice will be effective when it is received by the Company. If someone else wants to exercise this option after your death, that person must prove to the Company's satisfaction that he or she is entitled to do so.
|
Form of Payment
|
When you submit your notice of exercise, you must include payment of the option price for the shares you are purchasing. Payment may be made in one (or a combination) of the following forms:
|
Withholding Taxes
|
You will not be allowed to exercise this option unless you make acceptable arrangements to pay any withholding or other taxes that may be due as a result of the option exercise or sale of Stock acquired under this option. In the event that the Company determines that any federal, state, local or foreign tax or withholding payment is required relating to the exercise or sale of shares arising from this grant, the Company shall have the right to require such payments from you, or withhold such amounts from other payments due to you from the Company or any Affiliate. Subject to the prior approval of the Company, which may be withheld by the Company, in its sole discretion, you may elect to satisfy this withholding obligation, in whole or in part, by causing the Company to withhold shares of Stock otherwise issuable to you or by delivering to the Company shares of Stock already owned by you. The shares of Stock so delivered or withheld must have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the withholding obligation and may not be subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting, or other similar requirements.
|
Corporate Transaction
|
Notwithstanding the vesting schedule set forth in the Notice of Grant, upon the consummation of a Corporate Transaction, this option will become 100% vested if it is not assumed, or equivalent options are not substituted for the options, by the Company or its successor.
|
Transfer of Option
|
During your lifetime, only you (or, in the event of your legal incapacity or incompetency, your guardian or legal representative) may exercise the option. You cannot transfer or assign this option. For instance, you may not sell this option or use it as security for a loan. If you attempt to do any of these things, this option will immediately become invalid. You may, however, dispose of this option in your will or it may be transferred upon your death by the laws of descent and distribution.
|
Retention Rights
|
Neither your option nor this Agreement gives you the right to be retained by the Company (or any parent, Subsidiaries or Affiliates) in any capacity. The Company (and any parent, Subsidiaries or Affiliates) reserves the right to terminate your Service at any time and for any reason.
|
Shareholder Rights
|
You, or your estate or heirs, have no rights as a shareholder of the Company until a certificate for your option's shares has been issued (or an appropriate book entry has been made). No adjustments are made for dividends or other rights if the applicable record date occurs before your stock certificate is issued (or an appropriate book entry has been made), except as described in the 2008 Plan.
|
Forfeiture of Rights
|
If during your term of Service you should take actions in competition with the Company, the Company shall have the right to cause a forfeiture of your rights, including, but not limited to, the right to cause: (i) a forfeiture of any outstanding option, and (ii) with respect to the period commencing twelve (12) months prior to your termination of Service with the Company and ending twelve (12) months following such termination of Service (A) a forfeiture of any gain recognized by you upon the exercise of an option or (B) a forfeiture of any Stock acquired by you upon the exercise of an option (but the Company will pay you the option price without interest). Unless otherwise specified in an employment or other agreement between the Company and you, you take actions in competition with the Company if you directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, join or control, or participate in the ownership, management, operation or control of, or are a proprietor, director, officer, stockholder, member, partner or an employee or agent of, or a consultant to any business, firm, corporation, partnership or other entity which competes with any business in which the Company or any of its Affiliates is engaged during your employment or other relationship with the Company or its Affiliates or at the time of your termination of Service. Under the prior sentence, ownership of less than 1% of the securities of a public company shall not be treated as an action in competition with the Company.
|
Adjustments
|
In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in the Stock, the number of shares covered by this option and the option price per share shall be adjusted (and rounded down to the nearest whole number) pursuant to the 2008 Plan. Your option shall be subject to the terms of the agreement of merger, liquidation or reorganization in the event the Company is subject to such corporate activity in accordance with the terms of the 2008 Plan.
|
Applicable Law
|
This Agreement will be interpreted and enforced under the laws of the State of Colorado, other than any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the substantive law of another jurisdiction.
|
The Plans
|
The text of the LTI Plan and the 2008 Plan is incorporated in this Agreement by reference. This Agreement, the LTI Plan and the 2008 Plan constitute the entire understanding between you and the Company regarding this option. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning this option are superseded.
|
Data Privacy
|
In order to administer the LTI Plan and 2008 Plan, the Company may process personal data about you. Such data includes but is not limited to the information provided in this Agreement and any changes thereto, other appropriate personal and financial data about you such as home address and business addresses and other contact information, payroll information and any other information that might be deemed appropriate by the Company to facilitate the administration of the LTI Plan and 2008 Plan.
|
Consent to Electronic
|
The Company may choose to deliver certain statutory
|
Delivery
|
materials relating to the LTI Plan and 2008 Plan in electronic form. By accepting this option grant you agree that the Company may deliver the LTI Plan and 2008 Plan prospectus and the Company's annual report to you in an electronic format. If at any time you would prefer to receive paper copies of these documents, as you are entitled to, the Company would be pleased to provide copies. Please contact the Company's Stock Plan Administrator to request paper copies of these documents. Certain
|
Stock Unit Transferability
|
This is an award of performance stock units in the number identified in the Notice of Award, subject to the vesting conditions described below (“
PSUs
”). Your PSUs may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, whether by operation of law or otherwise, nor may your PSUs be made subject to execution, attachment or similar process.
|
Vesting
|
This is a performance based award of PSUs that may result in shares of the Company's common stock being granted and vested if the Company's meets or exceeds the performance metrics outlined in the LTI Plan. Please note that the Company may settle all or a portion of the shares underlying the PSUs by the payment of cash as outlined in the LTI Plan.
Your PSUs only vest as set forth in the LTI Plan;
provided
, that, you remain in Service on the relevant vesting dates if allowed under the LTI Plan. If your Service terminates for any reason, you will forfeit any PSUs in which you have not yet become vested.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, your PSUs shall not vest unless and until you confirm that you are not obliged to make any Hart-Scott-Rodino filings in connection with the vesting of your award of PSUs.
|
Delivery of Stock Pursuant to Vesting of PSUs
|
A certificate for the shares of Stock represented by your PSUs typically shall be delivered to you upon vesting, unless the Administrator (in its sole discretion) allows you to elect to defer delivery of such Stock and you make such election in a timely manner. If your Service terminates for a reason other than for Cause prior to such date, you will instead be delivered a certificate for the vested portion of your PSUs represented by this Agreement. If your Service terminates for Cause, you shall forfeit of all of your PSUs.
Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph:
If you are a “key employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and shares would otherwise be delivered to you on account of your separation from Service, then such shares shall not be delivered to you until six months after your separation from Service; and
If the shares relating to the vested PSUs would otherwise be delivered during a period in which you are (i) subject to a lock-up agreement restricting your ability to sell shares of Stock in the open market or (ii) restricted from selling shares of Stock in the open market because you are not then eligible to sell under the Company's insider trading or similar plan as then in effect (whether because a trading window is not open or you are otherwise restricted from trading), delivery of the shares related to the vested PSUs may be delayed until no earlier than the first date on which you are no longer prohibited from selling shares of Stock due to a lock-up agreement or insider trading plan restriction; provided, however, that the delivery of the shares related to vested PSUs will be made within 2 ½ months after the end of taxable year in which the PSUs vest or such other time as is required to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.
|
Deferral of Delivery of Stock
|
The American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 added Section 409A to the Internal Revenue Code. Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code provides that deferred compensation that is not structured to satisfy Section 409A may result in accelerated federal income taxation, a 20% penalty tax applied in addition to federal income tax otherwise owed and, potentially, interest for any underpayment of tax at the ordinary underpayment rate plus one percentage point. PSUs that allow for deferral of delivery of stock following vesting are likely to be impacted. For this reason, unless you have received written notice otherwise, the Administrator does not intend to allow for such deferral.
|
Withholding Taxes
|
You agree, as a condition of this award, that you will make acceptable arrangements to pay any withholding or other taxes that may be due as a result of vesting in PSUs or your acquisition of Stock under this award. In the event that the Company determines that any federal, state, local or foreign tax or withholding payment is required relating to the delivery of shares under your PSUs, the Company will have the right to: (i) require that you arrange such payments to the Company, (ii) withhold such amounts from other payments due to you from the Company or any affiliate, or (iii) cause an immediate forfeiture of shares of Stock subject to the PSUs awarded pursuant to this Agreement in an amount equal to the withholding or other taxes due.
|
Corporate Transaction
|
Notwithstanding the vesting schedule set forth in the LTI Plan, upon the consummation of a Corporate Transaction, the PSUs will become 100% vested if it is not assumed, or equivalent PSUs are not substituted for the PSUs, by the Company or its successor
.
|
Delivery of Stock Pursuant to Vesting of PSUs
|
Upon the vesting of this PSU, you shall authorize the Company to direct the broker to immediately sell any and all shares of Stock that otherwise would have been delivered net of applicable withholding taxes and acquisition consideration due to the Company. This Agreement shall serve as your express authorization to immediately sell any and all shares of Stock to be acquired upon the vesting of this PSU. As soon as reasonably practical, you shall be entitled to payment of the proceeds resulting from such sale, net of the applicable tax withholding and acquisition consideration (if any) due to the Company.
|
Withholding Taxes
|
You agree, as a condition of this award, that the Company shall have the right to cause an immediate forfeiture of a number of shares of Stock subject to the PSUs awarded pursuant to this Agreement in an amount equal to the withholding or other taxes due to the Company.

Establish the Black Scholes value for options by multiplying the stock closing price by 56.14246% ($11.02 * .5614246 = $6.1869 per share)
|
2.
|
Determine the number of PSOs if the Plan granted 100% PSOs by dividing the target annual value by the Black Scholes value for options ($525,000 / $6.1869 = 84,857 PSOs)
|
3.
|
Calculate the annual number of PSOs based on the targeted ratio of 30% PSOs by multiplying the total number of options from step #2 above by 30% (84,857 * .30 = 25,457 PSOs). This is the number of PSOs to be delivered each year at target performance.
|
a.
|
Note: To calculate the total number of PSOs to be granted on January 3, 2012, multiply the annual number of PSOs by 200% to establish the annual stretch target and then by 3 to account for each year of the 3-year plan
|
4.
|
Calculate the annual number of PSUs based on the targeted ratio of 70% PSUs by multiplying the total number of options from step #2 above by 70% and then applying the step down factor of 2.0 (84,857 * .70 = 59,400 / 2 = 29,700 PSUs). This is the annual number of PSUs to be awarded for each year at target performance.
|
a.
|
Note: Although the annual number of PSUs will be established at the beginning of the Plan term under the award, the underlying performance shares will not be granted at the beginning of the Plan Term. See the
“Timing of Grants”
and
“Vesting Schedule”
sections for additional information.

1.
|
I have reviewed this annual report on Form 10-K of Advanced Energy Industries, Inc.;
|
2.
|
Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;
|
3.
|
Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information included in this report, fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this report;
|
4.
|
The registrant's other certifying officer and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the registrant and have:
|
a.
|
Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this report is being prepared;
|
b.
|
Designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal control over financial reporting to be designed under our supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States;
|
c.
|
Evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and
|
d.
|
Disclosed in this report any change in the registrant's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant's most recent fiscal quarter (the registrant's fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant's internal control over financial reporting; and
|
5.
|
The registrant's other certifying officer and I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the audit committee of the registrant's board of directors:
|
a.
|
All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrant's ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information; and
|
b.
|
Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the registrant's internal control over financial reporting.
