Unreferenced date April 2010 Restricted stock , also known as letter stock or restricted securities , refers to stock of a company that is not fully transferable until certain conditions have been met. Upon satisfaction of those conditions, the stock becomes transferable by the person holding the award. One type of restricted stock is a form of compensation granted by a company. Typically, the conditions that allow the shares to be transferred are continued employment during a period of time, upon which they vesting vest . However, those restrictions can also be some sort of performance condition, such as the company reaching earnings per share goals or financial targets. Restricted stock is becoming a more prominent form of employee compensation, particularly to corporate title executives . Citation needed date April 2010 It has come to prominence as stock options have fallen out of favor after the perceived excesses of the stock market in the early 21st century. Citation needed date April 2010 Restricted stock awards are also coming into favor for executives because the Income tax in the United States income tax consequences can be more favorable to employees than stock options. Citation needed date April 2010 For example, in the United States the consequences of a restricted stock award may be managed by the election under section 83 b of the Internal Revenue Code , and in some cases the award can be structured to allow for the deferral of all tax until the time of the sale of the stock, and for all appreciation to be taxed at capital gains rates, even if the stock appreciated prior to vesting. In contrast, stock options can result in ordinary income to the recipient when exercised, especially when the stock has appreciated prior to vesting, with only the post exercise appreciation deferred to the time of sale at capital gains rates.

Phantom stock is a method for companies to give their management or employees a bonus if the company performs well financially. Phantom stock provides a cash or stock bonus based on the value of a stated number of share finance share s, to be paid out at the end of a specified period of time. Phantom stock is essentially a cash bonus plan, although some plans pay out the benefits in the form of shares. Phantom stock is favored by closely held or family owned companies who want to incentive incentivize management and other employees without granting them ownership equity equity . Phantom stock grants align employees motives with owners motives that is, profit growth, increased stock prices without granting employees an actual ownership stake in the company. Phantom stock can, but usually does not, pay dividend s. When the payout is made, it is taxed as ordinary income to the employee and is deductible to the employer. Generally, phantom plans require the employee to become vesting vested , either through seniority or meeting a performance target. Normally, phantom stock is taxable upon vesting, even if not paid out. Use of a rabbi trust that subjects the payout to significant risk, such as the company not being able to pay creditor s, may solve this problem. Phantom stock accounting is straightforward. These plans are treated in the same way as deferred cash compensation . As the amount of the liability accounting liability changes each year, an entry is made for the amount accrued. A decline in value would reduce the liability. These entries are not contingent on vesting. Phantom stock payouts are taxable to the employee as ordinary income and deductible to the company. However, they are also subject to complex rules governing deferred compensation that, if not properly followed, can lead to penalty taxes.

Non qualified stock options are stock options which do not qualify for the special treatment accorded to incentive stock option s. Incentive stock options are only available for employees and other restrictions apply for them. For regular tax purposes, incentive stock options have the advantage that no income is reported when the option is exercised and, if certain requirements are met, the entire gain when the stock is sold is taxed as long term capital gains . In contrast, non qualified stock options result in additional taxable income to the recipient at the time that they are exercised, the amount being the difference between the exercise price and the market value on that date. Non qualified stock options are frequently preferred by employers because the issuer is allowed to take a tax deduction equal to the amount the recipient is required to include in his or her income. If they have deferred vesting, then taxpayers must comply with special rules for all types of deferred compensation Congress enacted in 2004 in the wake of the Enron scandal known as Internal Revenue Code section 409A Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code .

The Coal Commission was a United Kingdom government agency, created to own and manage coal reserves. It was set up in 1938 and ceased to operate on 1 January 1947. History The Commission was constituted under the Coal Act 1938 . The Act provided for the vesting in the Commission, from 1 July 1942, of the ownership of all coal and certain associated minerals and rights . Subject to the provisions of the Act, the Commissioners were charged to exercise their functions as owners in such manner as they may think best for promoting the interests, efficiency and better organisation of the coal mining industry. The aggregate amount of compensation to be payable by the Commission for coal and coal rights was fixed by the Act at 66,450,000, with additional sums for other associated property and rights. Valuation of separate coal holdings as registered under the Coal Registration of Ownership Act 1937 was carried out by Valuation Boards appointed by the Board of Trade . The Commissioners were charged with duties of promoting amalgamations of colliery undertakings in any area in which they considered the number of separate undertakings to be so great as to be detrimental to the efficient working, treating or disposing of coal. The Chairman of the Commission was Sir Ernest Gowers . The Coal Act 1938 was superseded by the Coal Industry Nationalisation Act 1946 and the Commission was subsumed into the National Coal Board later the British Coal Corporation . Coal reserves are today owned and managed by its successor body, the Coal Authority .

Res nullius lit nobody s property is a Latin language Latin term derived from Roman law whereby res an object in the legal sense, anything that can be owned, even a slave, but not a subject in law such as a citizen is not yet the object of rights of any specific subject. Such items are considered ownerless property and are usually free to be owned. It is related to Occupatio . Examples of res nullius in the socio economic sphere are wild animals or abandoned property. Finding can also be a means of occupation i.e. vesting ownership , since a thing completely lost or abandoned is res nullius, and therefore belonged to the first taker. Specific legislation may be made, e.g. for beachcombing . Scope In English common law , for example, forest laws and game laws have specified which animals are res nullius and when they become someone s property. Wild animals are regarded as res nullius , and as not being the subject of private property until reduced into possession by being killed or captured. A bird in the hand is owned a bird in the bush is not. Even bees do not become property until hived. Res nullius also has an application in public international law , more specifically called terra nullius , whereby a nation may assert control of an unclaimed territory and gain control when one of its citizens often an exploratory and or military expedition enters the territory. This terra nullius principle justified colonisation of much of the world, as exemplified in the carving up of Africa by the European powers see Scramble for Africa . It is the concept that even though there may be indigenous peoples residing in newly discovered land, it is the right of the more civilised to take the land and put it to good use .

A property abstract is a collection of legal documents which chronicles activities associated with a particular Land lot parcel of land . Generally included are references to deed s, Mortgage law mortgages , Will law wills , probate records, court litigation s and tax sale s. Basically, any essential legal documents that affect the property. The abstract will also show the names of all property owners and how long a particular holder owned it for as well as showing the price the land was exchanged for when it changed owners. Rarely an abstract will mention capital improvements to the property. Property abstracts are considered good starting places for research on historical buildings. ref http www.uwm.edu Library arch Genie infopages propabst.htm Information about Property Abstracts , Archives, Genealogy, University of Wisconsin Milwaukee ref Abstract of title An abstract of title is the condensed history of title property title to a particular parcel of real estate , consisting of a summary of the original grant and all subsequent conveyance s and encumbrance s affecting the property and a certification by the Abstractor of title abstractor that the history is complete and accurate. In the United States, the abstract of title furnishes the raw data for the preparation of a policy of title insurance for the parcel of land in question, except for in Iowa, where a Title Guaranty policy is issued instead of title insurance. An abstract of title should be distinguished from an opinion of title . While an abstract states that all of the public record documents concerning the property in question are contained therein, an opinion states the professional judgment of the person giving the opinion as to the vesting of the title and other matters concerning the status of the chain of title . Many jurisdictions define the giving of an opinion of title as the practice of law, thus making it unlawful for a non attorney to do so.

Politics of Greece The Constitution of Greece Greek Constitution of 1827 was signed and ratified in June 1827 by the Third National Assembly at Troezen during the latter stages of the Greek War of Independence and represented the first major step towards realizing a centralised system of Government pooling together some of the more disparate elements of the liberation struggle. The Third National Assembly initially convened in Piada in 1825 and subsequently in Troezen in 1827. After unanimously electing John Capodistria as Governor of Greece for a seven year term, it voted for the Political Constitution of Greece . The Assembly wanted to give the country a stable government, modeled on democratic and liberal ideas, and for this reason it declared for the first time the principle of popular sovereignty Sovereignty lies with the people every power derives from the people and exists for the people . This key democratic principle was repeated in all the Greek Constitutions after 1864. Features The Constitution consisted of 150 articles. It established a strict separation of powers , vesting the executive power to the Governor and assigning to the body of the representatives of the people, named Vouli, the legislative power. The Governor only had a suspending veto on the bills, and he lacked the right to dissolve the Parliament. He was inviolable , while the Secretaries of the State , in other words the Ministers, assumed the responsibility for his public actions thus introducing into the text of the 1827 Constitution the first elements of the so called parliamentary principle . The Constitution was also comparatively developed in its approach to human rights for the time.
