objectives to be determined by the Board or a designated committee of the Board in its sole discretion, which will be targeted at one hundred percent (100%) of your Base Salary (the “Target Short-Term Incentive”), subject to
annual review in the discretion of the Board or a designated committee of the Board. Any such Short-Term Incentive will be paid on the date on which short-term incentives are paid generally to the Company’s executive officers, but in no event
later than the fifteenth (15th) day of the third

general plans, policies and practices with respect to grants of annual equity awards to its executive officers generally. The Company and, with respect to Partnership equity, the General Partner, in their sole discretion, will determine the type or
types of equity that comprise each Annual Award (which may include restricted stock, stock options, performance shares and/or phantom stock or units of the Company or the Partnership) as well as the grant dates and exercise prices, in each case, in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable equity plan(s) and award notice(s). 
 6. BENEFITS;
PAID TIME OFF. During your employment with the Company, you will be eligible to participate in all savings, retirement, incentive, health, welfare and perquisite plans (including, but
not limited to, medical, dental, disability insurance, life insurance, employee stock purchase, 401(k) and deferred compensation plans and programs) maintained or sponsored by the Company for its executive officers, as in effect from time to time
and subject to the terms and conditions thereof. In addition, you will be entitled to paid time off in accordance with the plans, policies, programs and practices of the Company generally applicable to its executive officers, as in effect from time
