 Exhibit 10.7.11 

UNIT APPRECIATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT 

UNDER THE 
 STONEMOR
PARTNERS L.P. LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN 
 This Key Employee Unit Appreciation Rights Agreement (the “Agreement”) entered into
as of October 22, 2013 (the “Agreement Date”), by and between StoneMor GP LLC (the “Company”), the general partner of and acting on behalf of StoneMor Partners L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the
“Partnership”), and David Meyers, a key employee of the Company or its Affiliates (the “Participant”). 
 BACKGROUND:

 In order to make certain awards to key employees, directors and consultants of the Company and its Affiliates, the Company maintains
on behalf of the Partnership the StoneMor Partners L.P. Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”). The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”)
of the Company. The Committee has determined to grant to the Participant, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Plan, an award (the “Award”) of Unit Appreciation Rights (also called “UARS”), which entitles the holder to
receive, in whole Common Units of the Partnership (“Common Units”) the excess of the Fair Market Value of a Common Unit on the exercise date over the exercise base price established for the UARS, subject to the terms and conditions
contained herein. The exercise base price for the UAR is intended to equal Fair Market Value of a Common Unit on the Date of Grant (as defined herein). The Participant has determined to accept such Award. Any initially capitalized terms and phrases
used in this Agreement, but not otherwise defined herein, shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Plan. 
 NOW,
THEREFORE, the Company, acting on behalf of the Partnership, and the Participant, each intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows: 

ARTICLE I 
 AWARD OF UARS

 1.1 Grant of UARS and Vesting. The Participant is hereby granted the following UARS under the Plan and the following terms
shall have the following respective meanings as used hereafter in this Agreement: 
  

					
	 Date of Grant
	  	October 22, 2013	 
		
	 Exercise Base Price for Each of the UARS*
	  	$	25.61	  
		  	  
	  
	 
		
	 Total Number of UARS
	  	 	25,000	  
		  	  
	  
	 

 UARS vest at a percentage rate which is equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar
months which have elapsed since October 22, 2013 and the denominator of which is 48, subject to the forfeiture provisions contained in Section 1.4 hereof. 

 

	* 	Intended to Equal Fair Market Value on Date of Grant

 All of the UARS shall automatically vest upon a Change of Control (as defined in the Plan),
notwithstanding that the UARS have not otherwise vested, provided that, at the time of the Change of Control, the Participant is then employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates. All of the UARS shall automatically vest upon retirement at or
after age 60 of a Participant who has at least 25 years of service with the Company or any of its predecessor’s companies (as determined by the Committee). 

The term “permanent disability”, as used in Section 1.4, shall refer to a “disability” as defined in Regulation
1.409A-3(i)(4)(i) and any successor guidance under the Code. All decisions as to whether UARS have fully vested or as to whether a Participant has suffered a “permanent disability” shall be made by the Committee and its decision shall be
final, binding and conclusive in the absence of clear and convincing evidence that such decision was not made in good faith. 
 1.2
Exercise of UARS. 
 (a) UARS may not be exercised prior to vesting, and only to the extent vested, and exercise is subject to all
the terms and conditions of the Plan, including, but not limited to, the conditions set forth in Section 1.2(c) hereof. UARS which have vested may be exercised by giving written exercise notice to the Company on the form supplied by the
Company. UARS are not deemed exercised until the Participant has paid or made suitable arrangements to pay all required tax withholding under Section 2.3 hereof, which will include (i) all foreign, federal, state and local income tax
withholding required to be withheld by the Company in connection with the exercise of the UARS and (ii) the employee’s portion of other foreign, federal, state and local payroll and other taxes due in connection with the exercise of the
UARS. 
 (b) Upon proper exercise of UARS, the Participant will be entitled to receive, with respect to the UARS which are exercised, that
number of whole Common Units that is closest in Fair Market Value (but does not exceed) the excess (if any) of (i) the Fair Market Value of the Common Units on the last trading date preceding the receipt by the Company of the written exercise
notice (or if there is no trading in the Common Units on such date, on the next preceding date on which there was trading) as reported in The Wall Street Journal (or other reporting service approved by the Committee) over (ii) the
Exercise Base Price for each of the UARS contained in Section 1.1. No fractional Common Units shall be issued; instead, cash shall be distributed equal in Fair Market Value to the value of a whole Common Unit multiplied by the fraction. In the
event Common Units are not publicly traded at the time a determination of Fair Market Value is required to be made herein, the determination of Fair Market Value shall be made in good faith by the Committee. The Committee’s determination of
Fair Market Value shall be final, binding and conclusive in absence of clear and convincing evidence that such decision was not made in good faith. 

(c) The Plan provides as follows: “The Committee may refuse to issue or transfer any Units or other consideration under an Award if, in
its sole discretion, it determines that the issuance or transfer of such Units or such other consideration might violate any applicable law or regulation, the rules of the principal securities exchange on which the Units are then traded, or entitle
the Partnership or an Affiliate to recover the same under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, and any payment tendered to the Company by a Participant, other holder or beneficiary in connection with the exercise of such Award shall be promptly
refunded to the

relevant Participant, holder or beneficiary.” The exercise of UARS may be subject to approval by the limited partners of the Partnership as required by the listing rules of the New York
Stock Exchange. In no event may a UAR be exercised in violation of the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership. 

1.3 Exercise Term. Subject to Section 1.4 hereof, UARS’ may not be exercised more than five (5) years after the Date of
Grant contained in Section 1.1. 
 1.4 Forfeiture of UARS Upon Termination of Employment. In the event of the termination of the
employment of the Participant (whether voluntary or involuntary and regardless of the reason for the termination) with the Company or its Affiliates, all UARS (whether or not vested) shall be deemed to be automatically forfeited, unless the
Participant’s employment is on that date transferred to the Company or another Affiliate. If a Participant’s employment is with an Affiliate and that entity ceases to be an Affiliate, the Participant’s employment will be deemed to
have terminated when the entity ceases to be an Affiliate unless the Participant transfers employment to the Company or its remaining Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of the termination of the Participant’s employment
with the Company or any of its Affiliates by reason of (a) a Change of Control (as defined in the Plan); (b) the death of the Participant; (c) the permanent disability of the Participant (as determined by the Committee); or
(d) the retirement of the Participant at such age as the Committee shall approve, no forfeiture shall apply. 
 1.5 No Rights as
Holder of Common Units. The Participant is not entitled to the rights of a holder of Common Units (including, but not limited to, the right to receive distributions on Common Units) until certificates representing the Common Units have been
delivered to the Participant after proper exercise of the UARS. 
 ARTICLE II

No Right Of Continued Employment. The receipt of this Award does not give the Participant, and nothing in the Plan or in this Agreement shall confer upon the Participant, any right to continue in the employment of the Company or any of its
Affiliates. Nothing in the Plan or in this Agreement shall affect any right which the Company or any of its Affiliates may have to terminate the employment of the Participant. 

2.2 No Rights As A Limited Partner. Neither the Participant nor any other person shall be entitled to the privileges of ownership of

bound by, all of the terms and conditions of the Plan, as the same may have been amended from time to time in accordance with its terms; provided, however, that no such amendment shall deprive the Participant, without the Participant’s consent,

 2.10 Severability. If any provision hereof is found by a court of competent jurisdiction
to be prohibited or unenforceable, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability, and such prohibition or unenforceability shall not invalidate the balance of such provision to the
extent it is not prohibited or unenforceable, nor invalidate the other provisions hereof.

ambiguities in a document are construed against the draftsperson shall not apply to this Agreement.

2.13 Arbitration. Any dispute or disagreement with respect to any portion of this Agreement or its validity, construction, meaning,
performance, or Participant’s rights hereunder shall be settled by arbitration, conducted in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association or its successor, as amended
from time to time. However, prior to submission to arbitration the Participant will attempt to resolve any disputes or disagreements with the Partnership over this Agreement amicably and informally, in good faith, for a period not to exceed two
weeks. Thereafter, the dispute or disagreement will be submitted to arbitration. At any time prior to a decision from the arbitrator(s) being rendered, the Participant and the Partnership may resolve the dispute by settlement. The Participant and
the Partnership shall equally share the costs charged by the American Arbitration Association or its successor, but the Participant and the Partnership shall otherwise be solely responsible for their own respective counsel fees and expenses. The
decision of the arbitrator(s) shall be made in writing, setting forth the award, the reasons for the decision and award and shall be binding and conclusive on the Participant and the Partnership. Further, neither Participant nor the Partnership
shall appeal any such award. Judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction may be entered upon the award and may be enforced as such in accordance with the provisions of the award. THE PARTICIPANT HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.
