Permissions

For logins, requires CONTROL permission on the login or ALTER ANY LOGIN permission on the server.

For server roles, requires CONTROL permission on the server role or ALTER ANY SERVER ROLE permission on the server.

USE master;  
GRANT IMPERSONATE ON LOGIN::WanidaBenshoof to [AdvWorks\YoonM];  
GO  

B. Granting VIEW DEFINITION permission with GRANT OPTION
