6.14    Section 409A.  The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement and the Grant be exempt from, or comply with, Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), and accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement and the Grant shall be interpreted and administered to be in accordance therewith. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Participant shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Company for purposes of any payments under this Agreement and the Grant which are subject to Section 409A of the Code until the Participant would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.  Each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided under this Agreement and the Grant shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, and any payments described in this Agreement and the Grant that are due within the “short term deferral period” as defined in Section 409A of the Code shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to this Agreement and the Grant during the six-month period immediately following the Participant's separation from service shall instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six months following the Participant's separation from service (or, if earlier, the Participant's death).  The Company makes no representation that any or all of the payments described in this Agreement and the Grant will be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code and makes no undertaking to preclude 

A-5






Section 409A of the Code from applying to any such payment. The Employee understands and agrees that he or she shall be solely responsible for the payment of any taxes and penalties incurred under Section 409A.

7.1    "Cause" shall mean, with respect to the Participant, "Cause" as defined in such Participant's employment, consulting or similar agreement with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries if such an agreement exists and contains a definition of Cause or, if no such agreement exists or such agreement does not contain a definition of Cause, then Cause shall mean (a) commission of any felony or an act of moral turpitude; (b) engaging in an act of dishonesty or willful misconduct; (c) material breach of the Participant's obligations hereunder or under any agreement entered into between the Participant and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates; (d) material breach of the Company's policies or procedures, including but not limited to the Realogy Corporation Code of Ethics or any of the Key Policies of Realogy Corporation; or (e) the Participant's willful failure to substantially perform his or her duties as an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate (other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness).  A termination will not be for "Cause" pursuant to clause (b), (c), (d) or (e), to the extent such conduct is curable, unless the Company shall have notified the Participant in writing describing such conduct and the Participant shall have failed to cure such conduct within ten (10) business days after the receipt of such written notice.
7.2    A "Change in Control" shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events:
(a)    An acquisition of any voting securities of the Company (the "Voting Securities") by any "Person" (as the term person is used for purposes of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Exchange Act), immediately after which such Person has (i) "Beneficial Ownership" (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the Company's then-outstanding Voting Securities or (ii) the power to elect a majority of the Board without the vote of any of the Investors; provided, however, that in determining whether a Change in Control has occurred pursuant to this Section 7.2(a), an acquisition of Shares or Voting Securities by (A) the Company or any corporation or other Person of which a majority of its voting power or its voting equity securities or equity interest is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company (a "Related Entity") or (B) any Investors or any Affiliates of any Investors, shall not constitute a Change in Control; or
(b)    The consummation of a merger, consolidation or reorganization of, with or into the Company or in which securities of the Company are issued (a "Merger"), if 

A-6






immediately following the Merger, any Person has (i) Beneficial Ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the Company's then-outstanding Voting Securities or (ii) the power to elect a majority of the Board without the vote of any of the Investors, unless such Merger is a "Non-Control Transaction."

(c)    The sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to any Person, other than (i) a transfer to a Related Entity or under conditions that would constitute a Non-Control Transaction if the disposition of assets is regarded as a Merger for this purpose or (ii) the distribution to the Company's stockholders of the stock of a Related Entity or any other assets.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a "Change in Control" shall not be deemed to have occurred by virtue of the consummation of any transaction or series of integrated transactions immediately following which the record holders of the common stock of the Company immediately prior to such transaction or series of transactions continue to have substantially the same proportionate ownership in an entity which owns all or substantially all of the assets of the Company immediately following such transaction or series of transactions.

7.3    "Good Reason" shall mean, with respect to the Participant, "Good Reason" as defined in such Participant's employment, consulting or similar agreement with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries if such an agreement exists and contains a definition of Good Reason (or a term of like import, such as "constructive discharge") or, if no such agreement exists or such agreement does not contain a definition of Good Reason (or a term of like import, such as "constructive discharge"), then Good Reason shall mean (a) a reduction of the Participant's annual base salary (but not including any diminution related to a broader compensation reduction that is not limited to any particular employee or executive) or (b) a required relocation of the Participant's primary work location to a location more than fifty (50) miles from the Participant's current primary work location; provided, however, that such reduction or relocation in clauses (a) and (b) above shall not constitute Good Reason unless the Participant shall have notified the Company in writing describing such reduction or required relocation within thirty (30) business days of its initial occurrence and then only if the 

A-7






Company shall have failed to cure such reduction or required relocation within thirty (30) business days after the Company's receipt of such written notice.
7.4    "Investor" means, collectively, (i) (x) one or more investment funds controlled by Apollo Management, L.P. and (y) Apollo Management, L.P. and its Affiliates (collectively, the "Apollo Sponsors") and (ii) any Person that forms a group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act, or any successor provision) with any Apollo Sponsors; provided that in the case of clause (ii), the Apollo Sponsors collectively own a majority of the voting power of such group.
