CONSULTING AGREEMENT

 

CONSULTING AGREEMENT (“Agreement”), dated as of May 6,
2005 but effective as of May 1, 2005, by and between New Plan Excel Realty
Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Company”), and Scott MacDonald (“Consultant”).

 

RECITALS

 

Company and Consultant desire to enter into this
Agreement to memorialize their mutual understanding with respect to Consultant performing
certain services for the Company with respect to the Company’s Valley Fair Mall
property (the “Property”).

 

AGREEMENT

 

IN CONSIDERATION of the premises and the mutual
covenants set forth below, the parties hereby agree as follows:

 

1.               Consulting
Period.  The term (the “Term”) of
this Agreement shall commence as of May 1, 2005 and continue until April 30,
2007, unless sooner terminated by either Company or Consultant as provided in Section 7
hereof.

 

2.               Consulting
Services.  During the term,
Consultant shall work with Company employees to develop a proposed
redevelopment plan(s) for the Property, including site plan, financial
pro-formas and budgets.  The Company will
review the redevelopment plan(s) and work with Consultant on refining the redevelopment
plan(s).  The Company shall have the sole
right to modify and approve any redevelopment plan for the Property (any redevelopment
plan approved by the Company being referred to herein as the “Approved
Redevelopment Plan”).  In connection with
the approval of the Approved Redevelopment Plan, the Company and Consultant
will agree upon milestone events relative to the redevelopment of the Property
pursuant to the Approved Redevelopment Plan (each, an “Agreed Upon Milestone
Event”).  In addition, the Company and
Consultant shall attribute a percentage to each Agreed Upon Milestone Event
(the “Milestone Percentage”).

 

Once an Approved Redevelopment Plan exists, Consultant
will perform such work as is necessary to implement the Approved Redevelopment
Plan, including, without limitation, negotiating with anchor and other tenants,
negotiating the terms of land sales and leases, meeting and negotiating with
city and other governmental agencies, and negotiating tenant buy-outs (the
foregoing, including the creation of the redevelopment plan(s), being referred
to as the “Consulting Services”).  To the
extent that Consultant requires the assistance of legal counsel in connection
with the implementation of the Approved Redevelopment Plan, Consultant shall
consult with the Company and the Company shall provide internal or retain
outside legal counsel to assist Consultant.

 

 

Consultant shall devote such time and energy to the
Consulting Services as is reasonably necessary in order for Consultant to
effectively provide the Consulting Services to Company.  In connection with the performance of the Consulting
Services, Consultant shall regularly meet and update the Company regarding the
status of the Consulting Services and the Approved Redevelopment Plan.  Consultant shall work with Company employees
in connection with the implementation of the Approved Redevelopment Plan. Consultant
shall not take any action binding upon the Company regarding the Approved
Redevelopment Plan or the Property without the prior consent of the Company,
and under no circumstances shall Consultant have the authority to execute any
agreement or other document on behalf of the Company.  During the Term, Consultant will attend the
ICSC convention in Las Vegas and present the Property and the Approved
Redevelopment Plan (or potential redevelopment plans if there is not yet an
Approved Redevelopment Plan) and conduct meetings regarding the same at the
Company’s booth (the “ICSC Event”).

 

3.               Consulting Fee.  The Company shall pay Consultant a monthly
fee equal to $12,000 per month, commencing on May 1, 2005 (the “Consulting
Payments”).  To the extent that during
any month there is reduced activity, then the Company and Consultant shall agree
upon a reduced Consulting Payment for such month.  Except for the Success Fee or the Implied
Success Fee (to the extent payable as provided in Section 4 below) and the
Expense Reimbursement (as provided in Section 5 below), the Consulting
Payments shall be the sole compensation payable by the Company to Consultant in
connection with the Consulting Services and Consultant shall not be entitled to
receive any other fees, commissions, payments or other compensation therefore.

 

4.               Success Fee.  Upon redevelopment of the Property in
accordance with the Approved Redevelopment Plan, Consultant shall be entitled
to a success fee (“Success Fee”) in an amount equal to 10% of the “value” of the
Property in excess of the Cost Basis. 
For purposes hereof, Cost Basis shall be an amount equal to (x) the book
value of the Property as of May 1, 2005 and (y) all costs incurred by the
Company in connection with the implementation of the Approved Redevelopment
Plan (including the Consulting Payments and the Expense Reimbursement), net of
proceeds from land sales.

 

The Success Fee shall be paid upon the sale of the
Property, and in such event the “value” of the Property shall be the gross
purchase price paid for Property (excluding land sales the proceeds of which
reduced the cost of the redevelopment of the Property).  In the event that the Property is not sold
within one year following substantial completion of the Approved Redevelopment
Plan, then the Success Fee shall be determined by an independent appraisal of
the Property, and following such value determination, Consultant shall be paid
the Success Fee.  In the event that no
Approved Redevelopment Plan is agreed upon by the Company during the term of
this Agreement, or in the event that prior to the Company approving an Approved
Redevelopment Plan the Company enters into a joint venture relationship with a
third party regarding the redevelopment of the Property, then no Success Fee
shall be due or payable to Consultant.

 

In the event that an Approved Redevelopment Plan is
agreed upon by the Company, but this

 

2

 

Agreement is terminated by the Company prior to the
sale of the Property or the one year anniversary of substantial completion of
the Approved Redevelopment Plan, then Consultant shall be entitled to the
payment of a partial Success Fee as follows. 
At the time this Agreement is terminated, an implied value of the
Property shall be determined by taking the NOI of the Property upon substantial
completion as projected in the Approved Redevelopment Plan (the “Completed NOI”),
dividing the Completed NOI by the market cap rate at the time of termination
(that being the cap rate that the Property would sell for at such time as if
the Property were substantially complete in accordance with the Approved
Redevelopment Plan) and taking the excess of such value over the Cost Basis (as
projected by the Approved Redevelopment Plan) (the “Implied Success Fee Value”).  The Implied Success Fee Value would then be
multiplied by the aggregate Milestone Percentages based on the occurrence of
the Agreed Upon Milestone Events that have occurred.  In no event shall a Success Fee or an Implied
Success Fee be payable if the Company has not agreed upon an Approved
Redevelopment Plan.

 

The first $100,000 of the Success Fee or Implied
Success Fee shall be paid in cash to Consultant, and the remainder of the
Success Fee or Implied Success Fee shall be paid by the Company to scholarship
funds designated by the Consultant.  No
Success Fee or Implied Success Fee shall be paid to the Consultant in the event
that the Consultant terminates this Agreement.

 

5.               Expenses.  The Company agrees to reimburse Consultant
for all reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses incurred by Consultant and pre-approved
by the Company during the Term in furtherance of and as necessary in connection
with the performance of the Consulting Services.  In connection with the performance of the
Consulting Services, Consultant shall have the right to use the Company’s
offices in Houston, Texas, San Diego, California or Salt Lake City, Utah.  The costs incurred by Consultant in attending
the ICSC Event would be reimbursed by the Company.  All of the foregoing being referred to as the
Expense Reimbursement.  The Company shall
designate a representative to be responsible for the pre-approval of expenses
and otherwise to act as the primary contact between the Company and Consultant.

 

6.               Confidential Information. 
Consultant shall hold in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the
Company all trade secrets and confidential information, knowledge or data
relating to the Company and its affiliates and their respective businesses and
investments which shall have been obtained by Consultant during the Term and
which is not generally available public knowledge (other than by acts of
Consultant in violation of this Agreement). 
Except as may be required or appropriate in connection with its carrying
out of its duties under this Agreement, Consultant shall not, without the prior
written consent of the Company or as may otherwise be required by law or any
legal process, communicate or divulge any such trade secrets, information,
knowledge or data to anyone other than the Company and those designated by the
Company or on behalf of the Company in the furtherance of its business or to
perform duties hereunder.

 

7.               Termination. 
Either party to this Agreement shall have the right to terminate this
Agreement effective as of the end of any calendar month upon not less than
thirty (30) days prior written notice to the other party (the date of
termination being referred to as the “Termination Date”).

 

3

 

Upon such termination,
the Company shall have no further obligations to Consultant except (i) for
the payment of any Consulting Payments not previously paid during the term, (ii) any
costs and expenses incurred prior to the Termination Payment for which the
Company is obligated to reimburse Consultant as provided in Section 5
above and (iii) the Success Fee or the Implied Success Fee, to the extent
payable pursuant to Section 4.

 

8.               Independent Contractor.  Consultant
shall act and be an independent contractor with respect to the Company and no other
relationship is intended to be created between the parties hereto.  Without limitation of the foregoing,
Consultant shall not be an employee of the Company during the Term, shall not
be entitled to any benefits of an employee of the Company, and this Agreement
shall not constitute an employment contract. 
Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as (i) giving
Consultant any rights as an employee or officer of the Company or any of its
affiliates or (ii) entitling Consultant to control in any manner the
conduct of the business of the Company or any of its affiliates.

 

Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in
this Agreement, the Company shall not have control over the details and means
used by Consultant in performing the Consulting Services, but shall have
control over the results thereof.  For
greater certainty, (i) the Consulting Services shall be of high quality
and (ii) the Company may provide specifications, descriptions, goals and
interim and final deadlines with respect to the Consulting Services (and
require that these be followed).

 

Consultant shall file all tax returns and reports
required to be filed by Consultant on the basis that the Consultant is an
independent contractor, and not an employee of the Company.  Consultant shall timely pay in full all taxes
in connection with Consultant’s engagement and remuneration under this
Agreement, including federal, state and local income taxes and social security
(FICA) taxes, as applicable.  The Company
shall not pay any unemployment or workers’ compensation taxes or premiums on
behalf of or regarding Consultant.

 

Consultant shall be solely responsible for Consultant’s
medical, dental, health and life insurance and other benefits and the Company
shall have no obligation to provide any of such benefits to Consultant (except
to the extent of offering Consultant COBRA as required by law). Without
limitation of the foregoing, Consultant shall not be eligible for any benefits
or fringe benefits offered by the Company to its employees (excepting COBRA as
required by law).

this Agreement may be assigned or transferred unless the Company requires any
successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or
otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the
Company to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same
manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it
if no such succession had taken place, in which event the Company may so assign
this agreement, except Consultant may assign to a company wholly owned by
Consultant.

selected by the Corporation, in its sole discretion, to determine whether a
Disability exists.  In addition, the
Executive may submit to the Corporation documentation of a Disability, or lack
thereof, from a licensed healthcare professional of his choice.  Following a determination of a Disability or
lack of Disability by the Corporation’s or the Executive’s licensed healthcare
professional, the other Party may submit subsequent documentation relating to
the existence of a Disability from a licensed healthcare professional selected
by such other Party.  In the event that
the medical opinions of such licensed healthcare professionals conflict, such
licensed healthcare professionals shall appoint a third licensed healthcare

2.                                       CHANGE IN CONTROL.

 

2.1                                 Vesting of Stock Options.  In the event of a Change in Control, all
stock options previously granted by the Corporation to the Executive shall

2.2                                 Termination by the Corporation Without Cause.  If within twelve (12) months following a
Change in Control, the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Corporation
without Cause (other than by reason of the Executive’s death or disability),
the Executive shall be entitled, in lieu of any other compensation and benefits
whatsoever, to:

 

3

 

(a)                                  payment
of his base salary at the rate in effect at the time of his termination through
the date of termination of employment;

 

(b)                                 an
amount equal to the greater of (i) one (1) time her annual base
salary at the time of the Change in Control or (ii) one (1) time her
annual base salary at the time of the termination of her employment, which
shall be paid out in equal bi-weekly installments through the Corporation’s
regular payroll practices;

 

(c)                                  any

earlier of twelve (12) months from the date of termination or until the date on
which the Executive first becomes eligible for substantially equivalent
insurance coverage provided by any other entity following termination of
employment by the Corporation.

 

2.3                                 Adjustment to Total Payments.  If any payment or right accruing to the
Executive under this Agreement (without application of this Section 2.4),
either alone or together with other payments or rights accruing to the
Executive from the Corporation (“Total Payments”) would constitute a “parachute
payment,” as defined in Section 2800 of the Code and regulations
thereunder, such payment or right shall be reduced to the largest amount or
greatest right that will result in no portion of the amount payable or right
accruing under this Agreement being subject to an excise tax under Section 4999
of the Code or being disallowed as a deduction under Section 2800 of the
Code.  The Executive shall cooperate in
good faith with the Corporation in providing the necessary information for
making a determination of the applicability of Section 2800.  The foregoing provisions of this Section 2.4
shall apply only if after reduction for any applicable federal excise tax
imposed by Section 4999 of the Code and federal income tax imposed by the
Code, the Total Payments accruing to the Executive would be less than the
amount of the Total Payments as reduced, if applicable, and after reduction for
only federal income taxes.

 

2.4                                 General Release.  No payments or benefits payable to the
Executive upon the termination of his employment pursuant to this Section 2
shall be made to the Executive unless and until he executes a general release
in a form satisfactory to the Corporation and such general release becomes effective
pursuant to its terms.

 

3.                                       DUTY OF LOYALTY.

 

3.1                                 Executive’s Position of Trust.  As a result of the Executive’s employment,
the Executive will have access to Confidential Information.

 

4

 

3.2                                 Obligations During the Term.  The Executive agrees that during the Term of
Employment he shall diligently devote his time and efforts to the duties and
responsibilities assigned to him by the Corporation, and without prior express
written authorization of the Board, the Executive shall not, directly or
indirectly, either alone or in concert with others, engage in any of the
following activities:

 

(a)                                  Perform
or render any services of a business, professional or commercial nature,
relating to services or products competitive with the Corporation, to or for
the benefit of himself or any other person or entity, whether for compensation
or otherwise, except for personal investments and other activities approved by
the Corporation;

 

(b)                                 Engage
in any activity directly or indirectly in competition with or adverse to the
Corporation;

 

(c)                                  Engage
in any activity for purpose of influencing or attempting to influence the
Corporation’s customers, either directly or indirectly, to conduct business
with any business enterprise in competition with the Corporation; or

 

(d)                                 Undertake
or participate in any planning for or organization of any business activity
that is or will be in competition with the Corporation in any field(s) or
area(s) in which the Executive has worked or with which the Executive has come
into contact, or of which the Executive has gained knowledge during the Term of
Employment.

 

3.3                                 Post-Employment Obligations.  The Executive agrees that for a period of
twelve (12) months after termination of his employment, regardless of the
reason, the Executive will not, directly or indirectly, either for himself or
for any other person or entity, whether as an agent, consultant, employee,
officer, director, investor, partner, shareholder, proprietor or in any other
individual or representative capacity (excluding the holding for investment of
less that five percent (5%) of the outstanding securities of any corporation
which are regularly traded on a recognized stock exchange), do any of the
following:

 

(a)                                  the
Executive will not undertake any employment or activity wherein the loyal and
complete fulfillment of the duties of that employment or activity would call
upon the Executive to make judgments on or otherwise to use any Confidential
Information that is covered by this Agreement or the Intellectual Property and
Confidentiality Agreement.

 

(b)                                 Divert
or take away (or attempt to divert or take away), any of the Corporation’s
present, former or prospective customers, including, but not limited to, those
upon whom he called, met with or became acquainted with while engaged as an
employee of the Corporation;

 

(c)                                  Interfere
with the contractual or business relationships of the Corporation;

 

(d)                                 Solicit
or attempt to solicit any employees or clients of the Corporation; or

 

5

 

(e)                                  Slander
or disparage the Corporation, or undertake any activity which adversely
impacts, or is reasonably likely to impact, the goodwill of the Corporation and
its business opportunities.

 

The Parties
agree that Article 5 of Exhibit B hereto (as identified in Section 4
below) shall apply only during the Term of Employment and for a period of
twelve (12) months thereafter.

 

3.4                                 Corporation Property.  The Executive agrees that upon termination of
his employment by the Corporation for any reason, or at such earlier time as
the Corporation may request, the Executive shall forthwith return to the
Corporation all documents and other property in his possession belonging to the
Corporation or any of its Affiliates.

 

3.5                                 Severability.  Each of the covenants of this section shall
be construed as separate covenant covering the subject matter in each of the
separate counties and states in the United States and governmental subdivisions
outside of the United States (collectively, the “Governmental Units”).  To the extent that any covenant is determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable in any one or more of
said Governmental Units, said covenant shall not be affected with respect to
any other Governmental Unit, each covenant with respect to each Governmental
Unit being construed as severable and independent.

 

4.                                       MISCELLANEOUS.

 

4.1                                 Notices.  Any written notice required or permitted to
be given shall be deemed delivered either when personally delivered or when
mailed, registered or certified, postage prepaid with return receipt requested,
if to the Executive, addressed to the last residence address of the Executive
as shown in the records of the Corporation, and if to the Corporation,
addressed to the Chairman of the Board at its principal office in Santa
Barbara, California.  Mailed notices
shall be deemed received two (2) business days after the date of deposit
in the mail.

 

4.2                                 Partial Invalidity.  If any term or provision of this Agreement or
the application thereof to any person or circumstance shall be held to be
invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement or
application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than
those to which it is held invalid or unenforceable shall not be affected
thereby, and each term and provision of the Agreement shall be valid and be
enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 

4.3                                 Waiver.  No waiver of any right hereunder shall be
effective for any purpose unless in writing, signed by the Party hereto
possessing said right, nor shall any waiver be construed to be a waiver of any
subsequent right, term or provision of this Agreement.

 

4.4                                 Assignment; Effect on Agreement.  It is hereby acknowledged and agreed that the
Executive’s rights and obligations under this Agreement are personal in nature
and shall not be assigned or delegated. 
This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the
heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the Parties, subject,
however, to the restrictions on assignment and delegation contained herein.

4.5                                 Disputes Resolution and Arbitration.

 

4.5.1                        Any
dispute arising in connection with the interpretation or enforcement of the
provisions of this Agreement, or its application or validity, will be submitted
to arbitration.  Such arbitration
proceedings shall be instituted in Santa Barbara, California, in accordance
with the rules then existing of the American Arbitration Association.  This agreement to arbitrate is specifically
enforceable.

 

4.5.2                        Any award
rendered in any such arbitration proceeding will be final and binding on each
of the Parties, and judgment may be entered thereon in any court of competent
jurisdiction.  The arbitrator shall have
the authority to compel the Party that does not substantially prevail in such
proceeding to pay the reasonable costs and fees of the prevailing Party
(including reasonable and customary legal fees and expenses) to the extent that
the arbitrator deems appropriate.

 

4.6                                 Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

 

4.7                                 Entire Agreement.  Unless expressly provided to the contrary
herein, this Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding between
the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior
agreements and understandings, oral or written. 
No modification or termination shall be valid unless in writing and
signed by both Parties.
