2011 Incentive Compensation Plan

Performance Stock Unit Award Agreement

 

Award Terms and Conditions

 

1.                                      Award of Performance Stock Units.  The Company hereby confirms the grant to you, as of the Grant Date and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan, of an award of Performance Stock Units consisting of the number of Units identified on the cover page of this Agreement.  Each Unit that is earned as a result of the performance goals specified in Exhibit A to this Agreement having been satisfied and which thereafter vests represents the right to receive one Share of the Company’s common stock.  Prior to their settlement or forfeiture in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Units granted to you will be credited to an account in your name maintained by the Company.  This account will be unfunded and maintained for book-keeping purposes only, with the Units simply representing an unfunded and unsecured contingent obligation of the Company.

 

2.                                      Restrictions Applicable to Units.  Neither this Award nor the Units subject to this Award may be sold, assigned, transferred, exchanged or encumbered other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.  Any attempted transfer in violation of this Section 2 shall be void and ineffective.  The Units and your right to receive Shares in settlement of any Units under this Agreement shall be subject to forfeiture except to extent the Units have been earned and thereafter vest as provided in Sections 4 and 5.

 

3.                                      No Shareholder Rights.  The Units subject to this Award do not entitle you to any rights of a shareholder of the Company’s common stock.  You will not have any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company in connection with any Units granted or earned pursuant to this Agreement unless and until Shares are issued to you in settlement of earned and vested Units as provided in Section 6.

 

4.                                      Earned Units.  The number of Units subject to this Award that you will be deemed to have earned (“Earned Units”) as of any date during the Performance Period will be determined in accordance with Exhibit A.

 

5.                                      Vesting of Units.  Only Earned Units may vest on any of the dates specified in the Vesting Schedule on the cover page to this Agreement (the “Scheduled Vesting Dates”), and then only if your Service to the Company and its Affiliates has been continuous from the Grant Date until the applicable Scheduled Vesting Date.  If the number of Earned Units as of any Scheduled Vesting Date exceeds the maximum number of Units that may vest on that date as set forth in the Vesting Schedule (“Permitted Vesting Amount”), only the number of Earned Units equal to the Permitted Vesting Amount will vest.  If the Permitted Vesting Amount as of any Scheduled Vesting Date exceeds the number of Earned Units as of that date, such excess number of Units shall be forfeited.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to Section 3(b)(2) of the Plan, if a Change in Control occurs during the Performance Period and while you continue to be a Service Provider, all Earned Units that have not yet vested will vest and be settled upon or immediately prior to such Change in Control, and all other outstanding Units shall be forfeited.

6.                                      Termination of Service.  If your Service to the Company and its Affiliates ends during the Performance Period, you will immediately forfeit all unvested Units.

 

7.                                      Settlement of Units.  After any Earned Units vest pursuant to Section 5, the Company shall, as soon as practicable (but no later than 75 days after such Units vest), cause to be issued and delivered to you, or to your designated beneficiary or estate in the event of your death, one Share in payment and settlement of each vested Earned Unit.  Delivery of the Shares shall be effected by the issuance of a stock certificate, by an appropriate entry in the stock register maintained by the Company’s transfer agent with a notice of issuance provided, or by the electronic delivery of the Shares to a designated brokerage account, shall be subject to satisfaction of withholding tax obligations as provided in Section 8 and compliance with all applicable legal requirements as provided in Section 20(c) of the Plan, and shall be in complete satisfaction and settlement of such vested Earned Units.

 

8.                                      Withholding Taxes.  You hereby authorize the Company (or any Affiliate) to withhold from payroll or other amounts payable to you any sums required to satisfy any federal, state, local or foreign withholding taxes or social insurance contributions that may be due as a result of the vesting or settlement of Earned Units, and the Company may delay the delivery to you of any and all Shares to be issued in settlement of vested Earned Units until you have made arrangements acceptable to the Company for payment of all such amounts in accordance with the provisions of Section 16 of the Plan.  If you wish to satisfy some or all of such withholding tax obligations by delivering Shares you already own or by having the Company retain a portion of the Shares that would otherwise be issued in settlement to you, you must make such a request which shall be subject to approval by the Company.

Grant Date:                                          February 26, 2016

 

The number of Units that will be earned and become eligible to vest as provided in Section 5 of the Agreement will be determined as follows:

 

1.                                      If the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the principal securities market on which it then trades (the “Principal Market”) equals or exceeds $9.00 per share for 20 consecutive trading days on or before the third anniversary of the Grant Date, 33.33% of the total number of Units subject to this Award (rounded down to the nearest whole Unit) will be deemed earned and will be eligible to vest on the third anniversary of the Grant Date.

 

2.                                      If the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the Principal Market equals or exceeds $11.00 per share for 20 consecutive trading days on or before the fourth anniversary of the Grant Date, 33.33% of the total number of Units subject to this Award (rounded up to the nearest whole Unit) will be deemed earned and will be eligible to vest on the fourth anniversary of the Grant Date.

 

3.                                      If the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the Principal Market equals or exceeds $13.00 per share for 20 consecutive trading days on or before the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date, the balance of the total number of Units subject to this Award will be deemed earned and will be eligible to vest on the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date.

RECITALS

 

A.                                    The Grantee is an employee of the Company or one of its Affiliates (as defined herein below) and provides services directly or indirectly to the Partnership.

 

B.                                    The Executive Compensation and Option Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has duly approved this and other long-term incentive plan awards subject to time-based vesting (the “2016 TBV LTIP Awards”) pursuant to the Company’s 2013 Incentive Stock Plan (as further amended, restated or supplemented from time to time, the “2013 Plan”) and the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership, as amended, restated and supplemented from time to time (the “Partnership Agreement”), to provide officers and key employees of the Company or its Affiliates, including the Grantee, in connection with their employment, with the incentive compensation described in this 2016 Time-Based Long-Term Incentive Plan Award Agreement (this “Agreement”), and thereby provide additional incentive for them to promote the progress and success of the business of the Company and its Affiliates, including the Partnership. 2016 TBV LTIP Awards were duly approved by the Committee pursuant to authority delegated to it by the Board as set forth in the Committee’s charter and Section 1.3 of the 2013 Plan, including authority to make grants of equity interests in the Partnership which may, under certain circumstances, be redeemed for cash, or, at the election of the Company, for shares of the Company’s Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 2013 Plan, or any successor equity plan (as any such plan may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, collectively the “Stock Plan”)).

(c)                                  To the extent that Schedule A provides for amounts or schedules of vesting that conflict with the provisions of Section 4 and Section 5, the provisions of Schedule A will be controlling and determinative.

 

5.                                      Termination of Grantee’s Service Relationship; Death and Disability; Change of Control.

 

(a)                                 If the Grantee is a party to a Service Agreement, whether entered into prior or subsequent to the date of this Agreement, and ceases to be an employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates, the provisions of Sections 5(b) through 5(d) shall govern the treatment of the Grantee’s Award LTIP Units exclusively, unless the Service Agreement contains, or is amended to contain, provisions

 

4

 

that expressly refer to this Section 5(a) and provides that those provisions of the Service Agreement shall instead govern the treatment of the Grantee’s Award LTIP Units. The foregoing sentence will be deemed an amendment to any applicable Service Agreement to the extent required to apply its terms consistently with this Section 5, such that, by way of illustration, any provisions of the Service Agreement with respect to accelerated vesting or payout or the lapse of forfeiture restrictions relating to the Grantee’s incentive or other compensation awards in the event of certain types of terminations of the Grantee’s service relationship with the Company (such as, for example, termination at the end of the term, termination without Cause by the Company and/or its Affiliates, or termination for Good Reason by the Grantee) shall not be interpreted as requiring vesting to occur with respect to this Award other than as specifically provided in this Section 5. In the event an entity ceases to be a Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company, such action shall be deemed to be a termination of employment of all employees of that entity for purposes of this Agreement, provided that the Committee or the Board, in its sole and absolute discretion, may make provision in such circumstances for lapse of forfeiture restrictions and/or accelerated vesting of some or all of the Grantee’s remaining unvested Award LTIP Units that have not previously been forfeited, effective immediately prior to such event. If a Change of Control occurs, Section 5(c) shall govern the treatment of the Grantee’s Award LTIP Units exclusively notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 3.3(c), 4.7 and 5.7 of the 2013Plan.

 

(b)                                 (i)                                     In the event of a termination of the Grantee’s Continuous Service as a result of (A) death, or (B) Disability, all unvested Award LTIP Units shall immediately vest in full as of the date of such termination.

 

(ii)                                  In the event of termination of the Grantee’s Continuous Service during the term of Grantee’s Service Agreement, or at any time if Grantee is not subject to a Service Agreement, in each case not during a Change of Control Period by (A) the Company without Cause, or (B) the Grantee for Good Reason (each a “Qualified Termination”), in either case prior to the Final Vesting Date, unvested Award LTIP Units shall vest on a pro rata basis based on the product of the total number of Award LTIP Units multiplied by the Partial Service Factor.

 

(iii)                               In the event of a termination of the Grantee’s Continuous Service during a Change of Control Period by (A) the Company without Cause, or (B) the Grantee for Good Reason, all unvested Award LTIP Units shall immediately vest in full as of the date of such termination.

 

(iv)                              If the Grantee is subject to a Service Agreement, in the event of a termination of the Grantee’s Continuous Service after the term of Grantee’s Service Agreement but not during a Change of Control Period for any reason other than by the Company for Cause or the Grantee’s death or Disability, all unvested Award LTIP Units shall immediately vest in full as of the date of such termination.

 

(v)                                 Notwithstanding the acceleration of vesting of Award LTIP Units that may occur pursuant to this Section 5(b), the Grantee will not have the right to Transfer (as defined in Section 8) his Award LTIP Units or request redemption of his Award Common Units under the Partnership Agreement until such dates as of which such Award LTIP Units would have become vested pursuant to Section 4 absent Grantee’s death, Disability or Qualified Termination, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the purpose of this Section 5(b)(v) is to prevent a situation where grantees of LTIP Units who have been terminated due to death, Disability or a Qualified Termination would be able to realize the value of their Award LTIP Units or Award Common Units (through Transfer or redemption) before other grantees of LTIP Units whose Continuous Service continues through the applicable vesting dates set forth in Section 4(a).

 

(c)                                  In the event of a termination of the Grantee’s Continuous Service other than a Qualified Termination or a termination due to death, Disability, or, during a Change of Control Period, by the Company without Cause or by Grantee for Good Reason, all Award LTIP Units except for

 

5

 

those that, as of the date at such termination, have vested pursuant to Section 4, without payment of any consideration by the Partnership other than as provided in the last sentence of Section 6, automatically and without notice terminate, be forfeited and be and become null and void, and neither the Grantee nor any of his successors, heirs, assigns, or personal representatives will thereafter have any further rights or interests in such Award LTIP Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the accelerated vesting of the Award LTIP Units as a result of a termination without Cause or for Good Reason during a Change of Control Period, when combined with any other amount payable to Grantee by reason of the Change of Control, would constitute an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, but for the application of this sentence, then the number of Award LTIP Units that vest by reason of this Section 5(c) shall be reduced to the minimum extent necessary, after taking into account any similar reductions required to other amounts payable to Grantee by reason of the Change of Control, so that no amount payable to Grantee constitutes an excess parachute payment; provided, however, that the foregoing reduction shall be made only if and to the extent that such reduction would result in an increase in the aggregate payments and benefits to be received by the Grantee by reason of the Change of Control, determined on an after-tax basis (taking into account the excise tax imposed pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code, or any successor provision thereto, any tax imposed by any comparable provision of state law, and any applicable federal, state and local income taxes). Any Award LTIP Units that do not vest by reason of the foregoing sentence shall be forfeited.

 

(d)                                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the vesting of any Award LTIP Units that would not otherwise have been vested at the time of the Grantee’s termination shall be conditioned upon the Grantee (i) executing, and not revoking, a release of, and covenant not to sue with respect to, any claims against the Company and parties related to the Company in the form required by the Committee, and (ii) complying with any restrictive covenants, including any restrictions on engaging in competitive activities, soliciting service providers or clients, or utilizing confidential information, contained in the Grantee’s Service Agreement.  If the Grantee is required to execute a release of claims pursuant to his Service Agreement as a condition to the receipt of severance benefits, such release shall satisfy the requirement of this Section 5(d).

 

6.                                      Payments by Award Recipients. The Grantee shall have no rights with respect to this Agreement (and the Award evidenced hereby) unless he shall have accepted this Agreement prior to the close of business on third Trading Date following the Effective Date by (a) making a contribution to the capital of the Partnership by certified or bank check or other instrument acceptable to the Committee or the Board, of $0.01 (the “Per Unit Purchase Price”), multiplied by the number of LTIP Units to be issued to the Grantee as part of this Award, (b) signing and delivering to the Partnership a copy of this Agreement, and (c) unless the Grantee is already a Limited Partner (as defined in the Partnership Agreement), signing, as a Limited Partner, and delivering to the Partnership a counterpart signature page to the Partnership Agreement (attached hereto as Exhibit A). The Per Unit Purchase Price paid by the Grantee shall be deemed a contribution to the capital of the Partnership upon the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Partnership Agreement. Upon acceptance of this Agreement by the Grantee, the Partnership Agreement shall be amended to reflect the issuance to the Grantee of the LTIP Units so accepted and the admission of the Grantee as a Limited Partner of the Partnership. Thereupon, the Grantee shall have all the rights of a Limited Partner of the Partnership with respect to the number of LTIP Units specified on Schedule A hereto, as set forth in the Partnership Agreement, subject, however, to the restrictions and conditions specified herein. Award LTIP Units constitute and shall be treated for all purposes as the property of the Grantee, subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Partnership Agreement. In the event of the forfeiture of the Grantee’s Award LTIP Units pursuant to this Agreement, the Partnership will pay the Grantee an amount equal to the Per Unit Purchase Price multiplied by the number of Award LTIP Units so forfeited.

 

7.                                      Distributions.

 

(a)                                 The holder of the Award LTIP Units shall be entitled to receive distributions with respect to such Award LTIP Units to the extent provided for in the Partnership Agreement, as modified hereby.

 

(b)                                 The Class B 2016 LTIP Unit Distribution Participation Date (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) for the Award LTIP Units shall be the Final Vesting Date; provided that prior to such

 

6

 

date Award LTIP Units shall be entitled to a percentage of distributions to holders of Common Units under the Partnership Agreement equal to the following:

 

(i)                        the LTIP Unit Initial Regular Sharing Percentage (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) (i.e. 10%) of regular periodic distributions; and

 

(ii)                     the LTIP Unit Initial Special Sharing Percentage (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) (i.e. 0%) of special distributions and other distributions made other than in the ordinary course.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, after the Final Vesting Date, Award LTIP Units shall be entitled to receive the same distributions payable with respect to Common Units if the payment date for such distributions is after the Final Vesting Date, even though the record date for such distributions is before the Final Vesting Date.

 

(c)                                  All distributions paid with respect to Award LTIP Units, both before and after the Final Vesting Date, shall be fully vested and non-forfeitable when paid, whether or not the underlying LTIP Units have become vested pursuant to this Agreement.

 

8.                                      Restrictions on Transfer.  Except as otherwise permitted by the Committee or the Board in its sole discretion, none of the Award LTIP Units granted hereunder nor any of the Common Units of the Partnership into which such Award LTIP Units may be converted (the “Award Common Units”) shall be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of or encumbered (whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or other legal or equitable proceeding) (each such action a “Transfer”), or redeemed in accordance with the Partnership Agreement (a) prior to vesting (or, in the case of LTIP Units that vest as a result of a Qualified Termination pursuant to Section 5, prior to the date they would otherwise have vested), (b) for a period of two (2) years beginning on the Effective Date other than in connection with a Change of Control, and (c) unless such Transfer is in compliance with all applicable securities laws (including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)), and such Transfer is in accordance with the applicable terms and conditions of the Partnership Agreement; provided that, upon the approval of, and subject to the terms and conditions specified by, the Committee or the Board, unvested Award LTIP Units that have been held for a period of at least two (2) years may be Transferred to (i) the spouse, children or grandchildren of the Grantee (“Immediate Family Members”), (ii) a trust or trusts for the exclusive benefit of the Grantee and such Immediate Family Members, (iii) a partnership in which the Grantee and such Immediate Family Members are the only partners, or (iv) one or more entities in which the Grantee has a 10% or greater equity interest, provided that the Transferee agrees in writing with the Company and the Partnership to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement and that subsequent transfers of unvested Award LTIP Units shall be prohibited except those in accordance with this Section 8. In connection with any Transfer of Award LTIP Units, the Partnership may require the Grantee to provide an opinion of counsel, satisfactory to the Partnership, that such Transfer is in compliance with all federal and state securities laws (including, without limitation, the Securities Act). Any attempted Transfer of Award LTIP Units not in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 8 shall be null and void, and the Partnership shall not reflect on its records any change in record ownership of any LTIP Units as a result of any such Transfer, shall otherwise refuse to recognize any such Transfer and shall not in any way give effect to any such Transfer of any LTIP Units. This Agreement is personal to the Grantee, is non-assignable and is not transferable in any manner, by operation of law or otherwise, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Similar adjustments may be made in the event of any such transaction or event involving the capital structure of the Partnership.

 

9.                                      Changes in Capital Structure.  Without duplication with the provisions of the Stock Plan, if (a) the outstanding Common Stock is changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company by reason of any recapitalization, reclassification, share split, share dividend, combination or subdivision, merger, consolidation, or other similar transaction or (b) any other event shall occur that in each case in the good faith judgment of the Committee or the Board necessitates action by way of appropriate equitable adjustment in the terms of this Award, the Stock Plan or the LTIP Units, then the Committee or the Board shall take such action as it deems necessary to maintain the Grantee’s rights hereunder so that they are substantially proportionate to the rights existing under this Award, the Stock Plan and the terms of the LTIP Units prior to such

 

7

 

event, including, without limitation: (i) adjustments in the Award LTIP Units or other pertinent terms of this Award; and (ii) substitution of other awards under the Stock Plan or otherwise. The Grantee shall have the right to vote the Award LTIP Units if and when voting is allowed under the Partnership Agreement, regardless of whether vesting has occurred.

 

10.                               Miscellaneous.

 

(a)                                 Amendments.  This Agreement may be amended or modified only with the consent of the Company and the Partnership acting through the Committee or the Board; provided that any such amendment or modification materially and adversely affecting the rights of the Grantee hereunder must be consented to by the Grantee to be effective as against him or her. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended in writing signed only by the Company and the Partnership to correct any errors or ambiguities in this Agreement and/or to make such changes that do not materially adversely affect the Grantee’s rights hereunder. This grant shall in no way affect the Grantee’s participation or benefits under any other plan or benefit program maintained or provided by the Company or the Partnership.

 

(b)                                 Incorporation of Stock Plan; Committee Determinations.  The provisions of the Stock Plan are hereby incorporated by reference as if set forth herein. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, in the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the Stock Plan, the Stock Plan shall govern.

 

(c)                                  Status of LTIP Units; Stock Plan Matters.  This Award and the other 2016 TBV LTIP Awards constitute incentive compensation awards by the Company under the Plan and by the Partnership. The Award LTIP Units are equity interests in the Partnership. The number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Stock Plan underlying outstanding Award LTIP Units will be determined by the Committee or the Board in light of all applicable circumstances, including calculations made or to be made under Section 3, vesting, capital account allocations and/or balances under the Partnership Agreement, the conversion ratio in effect between LTIP Units and Common Units and the exchange ratio in effect between Common Units and shares of Common Stock. The Company will have the right at its option, as set forth in the Partnership Agreement, to issue shares of Common Stock in exchange for Award Common Units in accordance with the Partnership Agreement, subject to certain limitations set forth in the Partnership Agreement, and such shares of Common Stock, if issued, will be issued under the Stock Plan. The Grantee acknowledges that the Grantee will have no right to approve or disapprove such determination by the Committee or the Board.

 

(d)                                 Legend.  The records of the Partnership evidencing the Award LTIP Units shall bear an appropriate legend, as determined by the Partnership in its sole discretion, to the effect that such LTIP Units are subject to restrictions as set forth herein and in the Partnership Agreement.

 

(e)                                  Compliance With Law.  The Partnership and the Grantee will make reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable securities laws. In addition, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no LTIP Units will become vested or be paid at a time that such vesting or payment would result in a violation of any such law.

 

(f)                                   Grantee Representations; Registration.

 

(i)                                     The Grantee hereby represents and warrants that (A) he understands that he is responsible for consulting his own tax advisor with respect to the application of the U.S. federal income tax laws, and the tax laws of any state, local or other taxing jurisdiction to which the Grantee is or by reason of this Award may become subject, to his particular situation; (B) the Grantee has not received or relied upon business or tax advice from the Company, the Partnership or any of their respective employees, agents, consultants or advisors, in their capacity as such; (C) the Grantee provides services directly or indirectly to the Company and/or its Affiliates on a regular basis and in such capacity has access to such

 

8

 

information, and has such experience of and involvement in the business and operations of the Partnership, as the Grantee believes to be necessary and appropriate to make an informed decision to accept this Award; (D) Award LTIP Units are subject to substantial risks; (E) the Grantee has been furnished with, and has reviewed and understands, information relating to this Award; (F) the Grantee has been afforded the opportunity to obtain such additional information as he deemed necessary before accepting this Award; and (G) the Grantee has had an opportunity to ask questions of representatives of the Partnership and the Company, or persons acting on their behalf, concerning this Award.

 

(ii)                                  The Grantee hereby acknowledges that: (A) there is no public market for Award LTIP Units or Award Common Units and neither the Partnership nor the Company has any obligation or intention to create such a market; (B) sales of Award LTIP Units and Award Common Units are subject to restrictions under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws; (C) because of the restrictions on transfer or assignment of Award LTIP Units and Award Common Units set forth in the Partnership Agreement and in this Agreement, the Grantee may have to bear the economic risk of his ownership of the LTIP Units covered by this Award for an indefinite period of time; (D) shares of Common Stock issued under the Stock Plan in exchange for Award Common Units, if any, are expected to be covered by a re-offer prospectus to be filed as part of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (or a successor form under applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission) under the Securities Act, to the extent that the Grantee is eligible to receive such shares under the Stock Plan at the time of such issuance and such registration Statement is then effective under the Securities Act; (E) resales of shares of Common Stock issued under the Stock Plan in exchange for Award Common Units, if any, shall only be made in compliance with all applicable restrictions (including in certain cases “blackout periods” forbidding sales of Company securities) set forth in the then applicable Company employee manual or insider trading policy and in compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act or pursuant to an applicable exemption therefrom.

 

(g)                                  Section 83(b) Election.  In connection with the issuance of LTIP Units under this Award pursuant to Section 3, the Grantee hereby agrees to make an election to include in gross income in the year of grant the applicable Award LTIP Units pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code substantially in the form attached hereto as ExhibitB and to supply the necessary information in accordance with the regulations promulgated thereunder. The Grantee agrees to file such election (or to permit the Partnership to file such election on the Grantee’s behalf) within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date with each IRS Service Center where the Grantee may file his personal income tax returns (or such location as may be specified by the IRS), and to file a copy of such election with the Grantee’s U.S. federal income tax return for the taxable year in which the LTIP Units are awarded to the Grantee to the extent required by such regulations. So long as the Grantee holds any Award LTIP Units, the Grantee shall disclose to the Partnership in writing such information as may be reasonably requested with respect to ownership of LTIP Units as the Partnership may deem reasonably necessary to ascertain and to establish compliance with provisions of the Code applicable to the Partnership or to comply with requirements of any other appropriate taxing authority.

 

(h)                                 Severability.  If, for any reason, any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement not so held invalid, and each such other provision shall to the full extent consistent with law continue in full force and effect. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid in part, such invalidity shall in no way affect the rest of such provision not held so invalid, and the rest of such provision, together with all other provisions of this Agreement, shall to the full extent consistent with law continue in full force and effect.

 

(i)                                     Governing Law.  This Agreement is made under, and will be construed in accordance with, the laws of State of Maryland, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws of such state.

 

9

 

(j)                                    No Obligation to Continue Position as an Employee, Consultant or Advisor.  Neither the Company nor any Affiliate is obligated by or as a result of this Agreement to continue to have the Grantee as an employee, consultant or advisor and this Agreement shall not interfere, restrict or limit in any way with the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate the Grantee’s service relationship at any time.

 

(k)                                 Notices.  Any notice to be given to the Company shall be addressed to the Chief Legal Officer of the Company at 343 Thornall Street, Edison, New Jersey 08837-2206 and any notice to be given the Grantee shall be addressed to the Grantee at the Grantee’s address as it appears on the employment records of the Company, or at such other address as the Company or the Grantee may hereafter designate in writing to the other.

 

(l)                                     Withholding and Taxes.  No later than the date as of which an amount first becomes includible in the gross income of the Grantee for income tax purposes or subject to the Federal Insurance Contributions Act withholding with respect to this Award, the Grantee will pay to the Company or, if appropriate, any of its Affiliates, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee or the Board regarding the payment of, any United States federal, state or local or foreign taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such amount; provided, however, that if any Award LTIP Units or Award Common Units are withheld (or returned), the number of Award LTIP Units or Award Common Units so withheld (or returned) shall be limited to the number which have a fair market value on the date of withholding equal to the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal, state, local and foreign income tax and payroll tax purposes that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement will be conditional on such payment or arrangements, and the Company and its Affiliates shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment otherwise due to the Grantee.

 

(m)                             Headings.  The headings of paragraphs hereof are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

 

(n)                                 Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts with the same effect as if each of the signing parties had signed the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and constitute the same instrument.

 

(o)                                 Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and any successors to the Company and the Partnership, on the one hand, and any successors to the Grantee, on the other hand, by will or the laws of descent and distribution, but this Agreement shall not otherwise be assignable or otherwise subject to hypothecation by the Grantee.

 

(p)                                 Section 409A.  It is the understanding and intention of the parties that the transactions described in this Agreement are not subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.  However, if it is subsequently determined that any of such transactions are subject to Section 409a, this Agreement shall be construed, administered and interpreted in accordance with a good faith interpretation of Section 409A of the Code. to the maximum extent possible. Any provision of this Agreement that is inconsistent with Section 409A of the Code, or that may result in penalties under Section 409A of the Code, shall be amended, with the reasonable cooperation of the Grantee and the Company and the Partnership, to the extent necessary to exempt it from, or bring it into compliance with, Section 409A of the Code.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event any payment to be made hereunder by reason of the Grantee’s separation from service, as defined in Section 409A, is determined to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A, and if the Grantee is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A at the time of such separation from service, then such payment shall be deferred until the earlier of the first day of the seventh month following the month that includes the separation from service or the date of the Grantee’s death.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Company, any Subsidiary, any member of the Committee, or any other person have any liability to the Grantee as a result of the imposition of any additional taxes or penalties pursuant to Section 409A.
