Chief Executive Officer Restricted Stock Unit Issuance Agreement



 Exhibit 10.23 
 SJW CORP. 
 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT ISSUANCE AGREEMENT 
 AMENDED AND RESTATED EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 22, 2008 
 RECITALS 
 A. The Board has adopted the Plan for the purpose of retaining the services of selected Employees of the
Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary). 
 B. Participant is to render valuable services to the Corporation (or a Parent or Subsidiary),
and this Agreement is executed pursuant to, and is intended to carry out the purposes of, the Plan in connection with the Corporation’s issuance of an equity incentive award under the Plan designed to retain Participant’s continued
service. 
 C. The Board previously made an Award of Restricted Stock Units to Participant on January 25, 2007, and that Award is
evidenced by a Restricted Stock Unit Issuance Agreement between the Corporation and Participant dated that same date. 
 D. The Corporation
and Participant wish to execute this Amended and Restated Agreement solely for the purpose of bringing the Restricted Stock Unit Issuance Agreement into documentary compliance with the final Treasury Regulations under Section 409A of the Code,
effective October 22, 2008. 
 E. All capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the meaning assigned to them in the attached
Appendix A. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed as follows: 
 1. Grant of Restricted Stock Units. The Corporation hereby awards to the Participant, as of the Award Date, Restricted Stock Units under the Plan. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the
Restricted Stock Units shall vest upon the attainment of a pre-established performance objective tied to total shareholder return measured over a specified period, provided the Participant continues in Service through the completion date of that
measurement period. Each Restricted Stock Unit which so vests shall entitle the Participant to receive one share of Common Stock on the specified issue date. The number of shares of Common Stock subject to the awarded Restricted Stock Units, the
applicable performance target for the vesting of those shares, the alternative and special vesting provisions which may become applicable to such shares, the date on which the vested shares shall become issuable to Participant and the remaining
terms and conditions governing the award (the “Award”) shall be as set forth in this Agreement. 







 AWARD SUMMARY 
  

			
	Award Date:	  	January 25, 2007
		
	 Number of Shares
 Subject to
Award:
	  	7,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”)
		
	Vesting Schedule:	  	The Shares shall vest upon the attainment of the Performance Objective set forth in attached Schedule I, provided the Participant continues in Service through the completion of the Measurement
Period (the “Normal Vesting Schedule”). However, the Shares may also vest in accordance with the alternative vesting provisions of Paragraph 4 of this Agreement and the special vesting provisions of Paragraph 6 of this
Agreement.
		
	Issuance Schedule	  	The Shares in which the Participant vests in accordance with the Normal Vesting Schedule will become issuable on January 15, 2010 (the “Issuance Date”). The actual issuance of the
Shares shall be subject to the Corporation’s collection of all applicable Withholding Taxes and shall be effected on the Issuance Date or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter, but in no event later than the close of the calendar
year in which such Issuance Date occurs. The Shares which vest pursuant to Paragraph 4 or Paragraph 6 of this Agreement shall be issued in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Paragraph. The procedures pursuant to which the applicable
Withholding Taxes are to be collected are set forth in Paragraph 8 of this Agreement.

 2. Limited Transferability. Prior to actual receipt of the Shares which vest and
become issuable hereunder, the Participant may not transfer any interest in the Award or the underlying Shares. Any Shares which vest hereunder but which otherwise remain unissued at the time of the Participant’s death may be transferred
pursuant to the provisions of the Participant’s will or the laws of inheritance or to the Participant’s designated beneficiary or beneficiaries of this Award. The Participant may also direct the Corporation to re-issue the stock
certificates for any Shares which in fact vest and become issuable under the Award during his or her lifetime to one or more designated family members or a trust established for the Participant and/or his or her family members. The Participant may
make such a beneficiary designation or certificate directive at any time by filing the appropriate form with the Plan Administrator or its designee. 
 3. Cessation of Service. Except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 4 below, should the Participant cease Service for any reason prior to the completion of the Measurement Period, then the Restricted
Stock Units subject to this Award shall be immediately cancelled, and the Participant shall cease to have any right or entitlement to receive any Shares under those cancelled units. 
  

 2 








 4. Alternative Vesting. 
 (a) Should any of the following events occur prior to the completion of the Measurement Period: (i) the Participant’s cessation
of Employee status by reason of death or Permanent Disability, (ii) the Participant’s resignation from Employee status for Good Reason or (iii) the Corporation’s termination of the Participant’s Employee status other than
for Good Cause, then all the Restricted Stock Units, together with the underlying Shares, shall immediately vest. 
 (b) The
Shares to which the Participant becomes entitled pursuant to the vesting provisions of Paragraph 4(a) shall be issued on the date of his Separation from Service in connection with such cessation of Employee status or as soon as administratively
practicable thereafter, subject to the Corporation’s collection of the applicable Withholding Taxes, but in no event later than the close of the calendar year in which such Separation from Service occurs or (if later) the fifteenth
(15th) day of the third (3rd) calendar month following the date of such Separation from Service, unless a further deferral is required pursuant to Paragraph 9 of this Agreement. 
 (c) Each Share in which Participant may be deemed, by reason of the vesting acceleration provisions of this Paragraph 4, to vest prior to
the actual termination or cessation of his Employee status shall in no event be issued prior to the earlier of (i) the Issuance Date applicable to that Share in accordance with the Normal Vesting Schedule or (ii) the date
determined in accordance with Paragraph 4(b). 
 5. Stockholder Rights. The holder of this Award shall not have any stockholder
rights, including voting or dividend rights, with respect to the Shares subject to the Award until the Participant becomes the record holder of those Shares upon their actual issuance following the Corporation’s collection of the applicable
Withholding Taxes. 
 6. Change of Control. 
 (a) Any Restricted Stock Units subject to this Award at the time of a Change in Control may be assumed by the successor entity or
otherwise continued in full force and effect or may be replaced with a cash retention program of the successor entity which preserves the Fair Market Value of the underlying shares of Common Stock at the time of the Change in Control and provides
for the subsequent vesting and payout of that value in accordance with the provisions of this Paragraph 6(a). No accelerated vesting of the Restricted Stock Units or the underlying Shares shall occur in the event of such assumption or continuation
of the Award or such replacement of the Award with a cash retention program. However, the vesting provisions in effect for the Award following the Change in Control shall no longer be tied to the attainment of the Performance Objective set forth in
Schedule I and shall instead be converted into the following Service-vesting schedule: 
 (i) The Award (whether in its
assumed or continued form or as converted into a cash retention program) shall vest in full upon the Participant’s continuation in Service through December 31, 2009. Following the completion of 

  

 3 








 
such Service vesting period, the securities, cash or other property underlying the vested Award shall be issued on the normal January 15, 2010 Issuance
Date or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter, subject to the Corporation’s collection of the applicable Withholding Taxes, but in no event later than the close of the calendar year in which such Issuance Date occurs. 

(ii) Should any of the following events occur after such Change in Control but prior to December 31, 2009: (A) the
Participant’s cessation of Employee status by reason of death or Permanent Disability, (B) the Participant’s resignation from Employee status for Good Reason or (C) the termination of the Participant’s Employee status other
than for Good Cause, then the Award shall immediately vest in full, and the securities, cash or other property underlying the Award shall be distributed on the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service in connection with such cessation
of Employee status or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter, subject to the Corporation’s collection of the applicable Withholding Taxes, but in no event later than the close of the calendar year in which such Separation from
Service occurs or (if later) the fifteenth (15th) day of the third (3rd) calendar month following the date of such Separation from Service, unless a further deferral is required pursuant to Paragraph 9 of this Agreement. 
 (b) In the event the Award is assumed or otherwise continued in effect, the Restricted Stock Units subject to the Award will be adjusted
immediately after the consummation of the Change in Control so as to apply to the number and class of securities into which the Shares subject to those units immediately prior to the Change in Control would have been converted in consummation of
that Change in Control had those Shares actually been issued and outstanding at that time. To the extent the actual holders of the outstanding Common Stock receive cash consideration for their Common Stock in consummation of the Change in Control,
the successor corporation may, in connection with the assumption or continuation of the Stock Units subject to the Award at that time, substitute one or more shares of its own common stock with a fair market value equivalent to the cash
consideration paid per share of Common Stock in the Change in Control transaction, provided such shares are registered under the federal securities laws and readily tradable on an established securities exchange. 
 (c) If the Restricted Stock Units subject to this Award at the time of the Change in Control are not so assumed or otherwise continued in
effect or replaced with a cash retention program under Paragraph 6(a), then those units will vest immediately prior to the closing of the Change in Control. The Shares subject to those vested units shall be converted into the right to receive the
same consideration per share of Common Stock payable to the other stockholders of the Corporation in consummation of that Change in Control, and such consideration shall be distributed to Participant on the tenth (10th) business day following
the earliest to occur of (i) the January 15, 2010 Issuance Date, (ii) the date of Participant’s Separation from Service or (iii) the first date following the Change in Control on which the distribution can be
made without contravention of any applicable provisions of Code Section 409A. Such distribution shall be subject to the Corporation’s collection of the applicable Withholding Taxes pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 8. 
  

 4 








 (d) This Agreement shall not in any way affect the right of the Corporation to adjust,
reclassify, reorganize or otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets. 
 7. Adjustment in Shares. Should any change be made to the Common Stock by reason of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization,
combination of shares, exchange of shares, spin-off transaction, extraordinary dividend or distribution or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class without the Corporation’s receipt of consideration, or should the value of
outstanding shares of Common Stock be substantially reduced as a result of a spin-off transaction or an extraordinary dividend or distribution, or should there occur any merger, consolidation or other reorganization, then equitable adjustments shall
be made by the Plan Administrator to the total number and/or class of securities issuable pursuant to this Award in order to reflect such change and thereby prevent a dilution or enlargement of benefits hereunder. The determination of the Plan
Administrator shall be final, binding and conclusive. In the event of a Change in Control, the adjustments (if any) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 6. 
 8. Issuance of Shares of Common Stock/Collection of Withholding Taxes. 
 (a) On the Issuance Date (or any earlier date on which the Shares are to be issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), the
Corporation shall issue to or on behalf of the Participant a certificate (which may be in electronic form) for the applicable number of underlying shares of Common Stock, subject, however, to the Corporation’s collection of the applicable
Withholding Taxes. 
 (b) The Corporation shall collect the applicable Withholding Taxes with respect to the vested Shares
issued hereunder through an automatic share withholding procedure pursuant to which the Corporation will withhold, at the time of such issuance, a portion of the Shares with a Fair Market Value (measured as of the applicable issuance date) equal to
the amount of those taxes; provided, however, that the amount of any Shares so withheld shall not exceed the amount necessary to satisfy the Corporation’s required tax withholding obligations using the minimum statutory
withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes that are applicable to supplemental taxable income. In the event payment is made in a form other than the Shares, the Corporation shall collect from the Participant the applicable Withholding
Taxes pursuant to such procedures as the Corporation deems appropriate under the circumstances. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of Paragraph 8(b), the employee portion of the federal, state and local employment taxes required to be withheld by the Corporation in connection with the vesting of the Shares or any other amounts hereunder (the
“Employment Taxes”) shall in all events be collected from the Participant no later than the last business day of the calendar year in which the Shares or other amounts vest hereunder. 

  

 5 








 
Accordingly, to the extent the applicable issuance date for one or more vested Shares or the distribution date for such other amounts is to occur in a year
subsequent to the calendar year in which those Shares or other amounts vest, the Participant shall, on or before the last business day of the calendar year in which the Shares or other amounts vest, deliver to the Corporation a check payable to its
order in the dollar amount equal to the Employment Taxes required to be withheld with respect to those Shares or other amounts. The provisions of this Paragraph 8(c) shall be applicable only to the extent necessary to comply with the applicable tax
withholding requirements of Code Section 3121(v). 
 (d) Except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 6(c) and Paragraph
8(b), the settlement of all Restricted Stock Units which vest under the Award shall be made solely in shares of Common Stock. In no event, however, shall any fractional shares be issued. Accordingly, the total number of shares of Common Stock to be
issued pursuant to the Award shall, to the extent necessary, be rounded down to the next whole share in order to avoid the issuance of a fractional share. 
 9. Deferred Issue Date. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, no Shares (or other property) which become issuable or payable hereunder by reason of the Participant’s
Separation from Service shall actually be issued to the Participant prior to the earlier of (i) the first day of the seventh (7th) month following the date of such Separation from Service or (ii) the date of
Participant’s death, if Participant is deemed at the time of such Separation from Service to be a specified employee under Section 1.409A-1(i) of the Treasury Regulations issued under Code Section 409A, as determined by the Plan
Administrator in accordance with consistent and uniform standards applied to all other Code Section 409A arrangements of the Corporation, and such delayed commencement is otherwise required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Code
Section 409A(a)(2). The deferred Shares or other distributable amount shall be issued or distributed in a lump sum on the first day of the seventh (7th) month following the date of Participant’s Separation from Service or, if earlier,
the first day of the month immediately following the date the Corporation receives proof of Participant’s death. 
 10. Benefit
Limit. The benefit limitation of this Paragraph 10 shall apply only to the extent Participant is not otherwise entitled to a Code Section 4999 tax gross-up, pursuant to the terms of the Corporation’s Executive
Severance Plan, with respect to the Shares that vest on an accelerated basis in connection with a Change in Control or subsequent cessation of Employee status: 
 In the event the vesting and issuance of the Shares subject to this Award would otherwise constitute a parachute payment under Code
Section 280G, then the vesting and issuance of those Shares shall be subject to reduction to the extent necessary to assure that the number of Shares which vest and are issued under this Award will be limited to the greater of
(i) the number of Shares which can vest and be issued without triggering a parachute payment under Code Section 280G or (ii) the maximum number of Shares which can vest and be issued under this Award so as to provide the Participant
with the greatest after-tax amount of such vested and issued Shares after taking into account any excise tax 

  

 6 








 
the Participant may incur under Code Section 4999 with respect to those Shares and any other benefits or payments to which the Participant may be
entitled in connection with any change in control or ownership of the Corporation or the subsequent termination of the Participant’s Service. 
 11. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Award shall be subject to compliance by the Corporation and Participant with all applicable requirements of law relating thereto
and with all applicable regulations of any stock exchange on which the Common Stock may be listed for trading at the time of such issuance. 
 12. Notices. Any notice required to be given or delivered to the Corporation under the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and addressed to the Corporation at its principal corporate offices. Any notice required to be
given or delivered to Participant shall be in writing and addressed to Participant at the address indicated below Participant’s signature line on this Agreement. All notices shall be deemed effective upon personal delivery or upon deposit in
the U.S. mail, postage prepaid and properly addressed to the party to be notified. 
 13. Successors and Assigns. Except to the
extent otherwise provided in this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Corporation and its successors and assigns and Participant, Participant’s assigns, the legal representatives,
heirs and legatees of Participant’s estate and any beneficiaries of the Award designated by Participant. 
 14.
Construction. This Agreement and the Award evidenced hereby are made and granted pursuant to the Plan and are in all respects limited by and subject to the terms of the Plan. All decisions of the Plan Administrator with respect to any
question or issue arising under the Plan or this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on all persons having an interest in the Award. 
 15. Governing Law. The interpretation, performance and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without resort to that State’s conflict-of-laws rules. 
 16. Employment at Will. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer upon Participant any right to continue in Service for any
period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining Participant) or of Participant, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to
terminate Participant’s Service at any time for any reason, with or without cause.

 V. Separation from Service shall

services to be performed as an Employee (or as a consultant or independent contractor) permanently decreases to a level that is not more than twenty percent (20%) of the average level of services he rendered as an Employee during the
immediately preceding thirty-six (36) months. Solely for purposes of determining when a Separation from Service occurs, Participant will be deemed to continue in “Employee” status for so long as he remains in the employ of one or more
members of the Employer Group, subject to the control and direction of the employer entity as to both the work to be performed and the manner and method of performance. “Employer Group” means the Corporation and any Parent or Subsidiary

(ii) the entity for which Participant performs such services ceases to remain a Parent or Subsidiary of the Corporation, even though Participant may subsequently continue to perform services for that entity. Service as an Employee shall not be
deemed to cease during a period of military leave, sick leave or other personal leave approved by the Corporation; provided, however, that the following special provisions shall be in effect for any such leave: 
  

	 	•	 	 Should the period of such leave (other than a disability leave) exceed six (6) months, then Participant shall be deemed to cease Service and to incur a
Separation from Service upon the expiration of the initial six (6)- month period of that leave, unless Participant retains a right to re-employment under applicable law or by contract with the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary).

unable to perform the duties of his position of employment with the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary) or any substantially similar position of employment. 


  

	 	•	 	 Except to the extent otherwise required by law or expressly authorized by the Plan Administrator or by the Corporation’s written policy on leaves of absence,
no Service credit shall be given for vesting purposes for any period Participant is on a leave of absence.

 A-5 








 Y. Subsidiary shall mean any corporation (other than the Corporation) in an unbroken chain
of corporations beginning with the Corporation, provided each corporation (other than the last corporation) in the unbroken chain owns, at the time of the determination, stock possessing fifty percent (50%) or more of the total combined voting
power of all classes of stock in one of the other corporations in such chain. 
 Z. Withholding Taxes shall mean (i) the
employee portion of the federal, state and local employment taxes required to be withheld by the Corporation in connection with the vesting of the shares of Common Stock (or any other property) under the Award and any phantom dividend equivalents
relating to those shares and (ii) the federal, state and local income taxes required to be withheld by the Corporation in connection with the issuance of those vested shares (or any other property) and the distribution of any phantom dividend
equivalents relating to such shares. 
  

 A-6 








 SCHEDULE I 
 PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVE 
 The performance objective which must be attained for all the Restricted Stock Units to vest
shall be the realization of a total return to the Corporation’s shareholders for the three (3)-year period measured from January 1, 2007 to December 31, 2009 (the “Measurement Period”) of at least eight percent (8%) per
year, compounded annually. Such total shareholder return shall be measured as follows: 
 first, the base value of the Common
Stock at the January 1, 2007 start of the Measurement Period shall be determined by averaging the closing selling prices per share of such Common Stock over the days in December 2006 on which the Common Stock was traded; 
 then, the ending value of the Common Stock on the December 31, 2009 close of the Measurement Period shall be determined by averaging
the closing selling prices per share of Common Stock for the days in December 2009 on which the Common Stock is traded, 
 then,
there shall be determined the dollar amount by which the ending value of the Common Stock as so determined exceeds the base value of the Common Stock as determined above (the “Increase in Value”); 
 then, an additional dollar amount (the “Additional Value”) shall be calculated by multiplying (i) the number of shares of
Common Stock (including fractional shares) which could have been purchased during the period from January 1, 2007 to December 31, 2009 had the cash dividend paid per share of Common Stock during that period been immediately re-invested in
Common Stock at the closing selling price per share on each such dividend payment date by (ii) the average of the closing selling prices per share of Common Stock for the days in December 2009 on which the Common stock is traded; and

 finally, the Increase in Value calculated above shall be added to the Additional Value, and the resulting dollar amount
shall then be expressed as a percentage of the base value of the Common Stock calculated at the start of the Measurement Period. 
 If the resulting
percentage obtained from the foregoing calculation yields a total shareholder return of at least eight percent (8%) per year, compounded annually, then the Performance Objective shall be deemed to have been attained. 
 The foregoing formula shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock dividends, stock splits, exchange of shares, spin-off transaction, extraordinary dividend or
distribution, combination of shares, recapitalization or other similar transaction affecting the outstanding shares of Common Stock without the Corporation’s receipt of consideration.
