    (Employee
      Director – Alternate Version)

    

    

    THIS
      RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT
      (the "Agreement") entered into as of the  day of January,
      20 , by and between Urstadt Biddle Properties Inc., a Maryland
      corporation (the "Company"), and  an individual employed by the
      Company (the "Participant").

    

    

    WITNESSETH:

    

    

    WHEREAS,
      the Company has adopted,
      through appropriate action of its Board of Directors, the Urstadt Biddle
      Properties Inc. Amended and Restated Restricted Stock Award Plan (as amended,
      the "Plan"); and

    

    WHEREAS,
      the Company desires to grant a
      Restricted Stock Award to the Participant under the Plan on the terms and
      conditions hereinafter set forth; and

    

    WHEREAS,
      the Participant desires to
      accept such Restricted Stock Award of the Company subject to the terms and
      conditions of this Agreement and the Plan;

    

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, in consideration of the
      promises and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, and other good and
      valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company
      and
      the Participant do mutually covenant and agree as follows:

    

    

    1.           Grant
      of Restricted Stock.  Subject to the terms and conditions
      hereinafter set forth, the Participant is hereby granted a Restricted Stock
      Award of 
(           ) Common
      Shares, par value $.01 per share, and 
(        ) Class A Common Shares, par
      value $.01 per share, of the Company (collectively the "Restricted
      Stock").

    

    2.           Issuance
      of Restricted Stock.  The number of shares of Restricted Stock
      granted under Section 1 hereof shall be recorded on the books of the Company
      in
      the name of the Participant.  The Company shall instruct its stock
      transfer agent to place a stop transfer order on the Restricted Stock until
      such
      time as the Restrictions thereon shall lapse.  In the event that the
      Participant shall forfeit all or any portion of the Restricted Stock, the shares
      which are forfeited automatically shall be transferred back to the
      Company.

    

    3.    Vesting.   The
      Participant shall vest in the Restricted Stock Award granted hereunder, and
      all
      Restrictions thereon shall lapse, upon the
      fifth anniversary of the date of grant hereunder if the
      Participant is still employed by the Company on that date.  Except as
      provided in Paragraph 4(b) below, prior to such fifth anniversary, no portion
      of
      the Restricted Stock Award shall be vested.

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    4.           Termination
      of Employment During the Restricted Period.

    

    In
      the
      event that during the term of the Restricted Period the Participant’s status as
      an employee of the Company terminates:

     

    
      	
              (a)  

            	
              for
                any reason other than death or Disability, the Participant shall
                forfeit
                the Restricted Stock evidenced by this Agreement;
                or,

            

    

    

    
      	
              (b)  

            	
              by
                reason of death or Disability, the Restrictions on any and all Awards
                shall lapse on the date of such
                termination.

            

    

     

    5.           Forfeiture.  All
      shares of non-vested Restricted Stock shall be automatically forfeited to the
      Company if the Board of Directors of the Company determines that the Participant
      has breached a material contract obligation to the Company including, without
      limitation, material provisions in any employment or confidentiality
      agreement.

    

    6.           Rights
      to Dividends.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, during
      the Restricted Period the Participant shall have the right to receive any
      dividends declared and other distributions paid with respect to the shares
      of
      Restricted Stock as such are declared and paid to shareholders with respect
      to
      Common Shares and Class A Common Shares of the Company generally.

    

    7.           Withholding
      Tax Liability.  The Company shall have the right to withhold any
      income or other taxes due upon transfer of shares to the Participant or the
      lapse of Restrictions, including the right to withhold shares or sell shares
      where appropriate.

    

    8.           Transfer
      Restrictions.  Except as provided by the resolutions adopted by
      the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company on November
      6, 2002 (the “Resolutions”), the shares of Restricted Stock may not be
      transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered, and shall
      not be subject to execution, attachment, garnishment or other similar legal
      processes.  In the event of a permitted Assignment pursuant to the
      Resolutions, the Restricted Stock Award shall continue to be subject to all
      other terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.  Except as
      aforesaid, upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or
      otherwise encumber or dispose of such shares, the shares immediately shall
      be
      forfeited to the Company.

    

    9.           Construction;
      No Contract of Employment.  Nothing contained in this Agreement,
      nor the granting of the Restricted Stock Award hereunder, shall be construed
      as
      giving the Participant or any other person any legal or equitable rights against
      the Company or any subsidiary or any director, officer, employee or agent
      thereof, except for those rights as are herein provided.  Under no
      circumstances shall this Agreement be construed as an express or implied
      contract of continuing employment for the Participant, nor shall the Restricted
      Stock Award granted hereunder in any manner obligate the Company, or any
      subsidiary or affiliate of the Company, to continue the employment of the
      Participant.

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    

    10.           Miscellaneous.  This
      Agreement is subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, as the Plan may
      be
      from time to time amended.  The provisions of the Plan are
      incorporated herein by reference, and the capitalized terms used but undefined
      herein shall have the same meanings as set forth in the Plan.  The
      Participant acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees to be bound
      by
      all the terms and provisions thereof.  Since the Participant has
      attained the age when he is eligible for Retirement, as defined in the Plan,
      the
      parties acknowledge that the provisions of paragraphs three and four above
      may
      differ from the Plan, but such provisions reflect the intent of the Compensation
      Committee administering the Plan.  Except with respect to such
      paragraphs, any inconsistency between this Agreement and the Plan shall be
      resolved in favor of the Plan.

EXHIBIT 10.9

OPTION CONTRACT

THIS OPTION (“Option”) is made this 19th day of December, 2007, by and between Recreation

(“Buyer”).

RECITALS

     WHEREAS, Seller Recreation Properties, LTD. owns certain royalty and net profit interests on
mining claims located in San Juan County, Colorado, as more particularly described on the
Exhibits A and B, hereinafter “the RP Property”; and

     WHEREAS, the RP Properties are collectively referred to herein as “the Property”; and

     WHEREAS, the Seller, or any entity wholly or partially owned by Seller or Thomas A. Warlick
may acquire title to a royalty and net profit interest currently owned by Liberty Investment
Corporation on the Property, and hereinafter referred to as the “Liberty Interest” or “LRI”; and

     WHEREAS, Buyer desires to purchase said royalty and net profit interests from Seller; and

     WHEREAS, the parties desire to enter into an Option Contract, to define the rights and
obligations of each party with respect to an option to purchase the Property.

     NOW THEREFORE, for mutual consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the
parties agree as follows:

     1. Grant of Option.

          a. Seller hereby grants to Buyer an option to purchase the Property from Seller for the
purchase price of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000), in accordance with
and subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter contained, (“Option”).

          b. Seller also grants to the Buyer an Option to Purchase the Liberty Interest for the
purchase price of Fifty Thousand Dollars $50,000 in the event the Seller, or any entity
wholly or partially owned by Seller or Thomas A. Warlick acquires said interest within the
Option term as set out below, and subject to the same terms and conditions hereinafter
contained.

     2. Option Price Except as otherwise provided herein, the non-refundable Option
consideration of Ten Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($10,000.00) shall be paid by Buyer to Seller as
provided herein (the “Option Consideration”).

The Option Consideration shall be non-refundable, except as otherwise provided below.

     3. Option Term. The term of the Option (“Term”) shall commence on December 20, 2007
and shall continue until November 21, 2008. Should Buyer fail to exercise the Option, as herein
provided, then the Option granted herein shall terminate, and both parties shall be released from
any and all obligations with respect to the Option of the Property. In the event of termination,
the Option Consideration shall not be returned to Buyer.

     4. Exercise of Option. At any time prior to the expiration of the Term, Buyer may
notify Seller of its intent to exercise the option by delivering written notice to the Seller in
the manner as set forth below. Thereafter, the option shall become effective, and closing shall
occur no later than thirty days thereafter, unless mutually agreed upon by the parties. Upon said
effective date, the Option shall become a contract for the sale and purchase of the Property in
accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.

     5. Taxes and Other Prorations. General real property taxes for the year in which the
closing occurs shall be apportioned between the parties based upon the most recent mill levy
assessment. Such apportionment shall be final. Fees for Closing Services shall be shared equally
between Buyer and Seller.

 

 

     6. Title Documents.

          a. No later than January 31, 2007, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a current Title Insurance
Commitment (“Commitment”) from a title company selected by Buyer (“Title Company”) with respect to
the Property, together with clear copies of all exceptions to title listed therein (“Permitted
Exceptions”) and a certificates of taxes due with respect to the Property or other evidence
acceptable to Buyer of the status of taxes (the “Tax Certificate”). The Commitment shall reflect
that the amount of the policy coverage shall be no less than the Purchase Price. Buyer shall have
until one hundred eighty days after delivery of the Commitment, the Permitted Exceptions, and the
Tax Certificate (the “Title Documents”) to notify Seller of any objections to said Title Documents.
If Seller receives notice of unmerchantability of title or any other unsatisfactory title
condition, Seller may use reasonable efforts to correct said items and bear any nominal expense to
correct the same within thirty days. If such unsatisfactory title condition is not corrected to
Buyer’s satisfaction within that time, this contract shall then terminate and the Option
consideration shall be refunded; provided, however, Buyer may, by written notice received by Seller
within three days, waive objection to such items and continue the Option. If Seller does not
receive Buyer’s notice by the date specified above, Buyer accepts the condition of title as
disclosed by the Title Documents as satisfactory.

          b. Within ten days of the exercise of option, Seller will provide an updated Title Insurance
Commitment (“Updated Commitment”). Buyer will then have an additional ten (10) days to make any
objections to the Updated Commitment. Buyer’s objections shall be limited to any new title
exceptions that were not previously accepted by Buyer pursuant to part (a) above. If Buyer makes an
objection pursuant to the terms of this paragraph, Seller shall have until closing to clear the
title back to the state of title per the Title Commitment set forth in subpart (a) above. If Seller
fails to clear the title as provided herein, Purchaser shall have the option to either terminate
this Option on or before the closing date, whereupon Seller will refund the Option Price to Buyer
within ten (10) days of the Closing date; or Purchaser may waive its objection to the condition of
title and closing shall occur on the closing date.

     7. Due Diligence. During the period of this Option Contract, Buyer shall have the
right to conduct all inspections of the Property it deems appropriate, including, but not limited
to, an evaluation of prior exploration and development of the mining claims. To that end Seller
will provide to Buyer copies of all documentation related to prior exploration and development of
the mining claims in its possession.

     8. Warranties. Buyer and Seller hereby represent and warrant to, and covenant with,
one another that:

          a. There are no actions, suits or proceedings of a material nature pending or to the best
knowledge of Buyer or Seller threatened against or affecting Buyer or Seller which would affect
Buyer’s or Seller’s ability to enter into this Option or consummate the transactions contemplated
herein.

          b. Buyer and Seller have full right, power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this
Option without obtaining any consents or approvals from, or the taking of any other actions with
respect to, any third parties and this Option constitutes the valid and binding agreement of Buyer
and Seller, enforceable against Buyer and Seller in accordance with its terms.

     9. Closing.

          a. Closing Date. The purchase, sale and conveyance of the Property shall occur on a
date mutually agreeable to Seller and Buyer, but in no event later than December 15, 2008.

          b. Conveyance of the Property. At the closing, the Seller shall convey to Buyer fee
simple title to the Property by a Bargain and Sale Deed, subject to the Permitted Exceptions that
have been accepted by Buyer. The conveyance is intended to include all royalty and net profits now
owned by Seller, or hereafter acquired by Seller, associated with the mining claims set forth on
Exhibits A and B, including any interest that may hereafter by acquired from Liberty Investment
Corp, if any.

          c. Payment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be delivered in cash or
certified funds to the Title Company at the time of closing.

 

 

          d. Possession of Property. Possession of the property shall be as of the Closing
Date and time.

          e. Title Policy. Seller shall cause a currently dated title policy (the Policy”), in
conformance with the Commitment, to be delivered to Buyer following closing in the amount of the
Purchase Price. The Seller shall pay the premium with respect to the Policy at Closing.

     10. Default Remedies.

          a. Failure to Exercise Option. If Buyer has not otherwise terminated the Option, as
provided herein, in the event Buyer fails to pay the Option Consideration or to exercise the Option
within the time periods provided herein, then in either event, the Option shall be null and void
and of no further force and effect. In the event that the Option becomes null and void pursuant to
this paragraph, the Option Consideration, unless otherwise to be refunded and paid to Purchaser as
provided herein, shall be retained by Seller. In such event, Seller shall have the right to list
the Property for sale.

          b. Buyer’s Failure to Close. If Buyer exercises the Option to purchase the
Property, but thereafter fails to close on the purchase of the Property by the Closing Date, time
being of the essence, then the Option shall be null and void and of no further force and effect. In
the event of said termination, Seller shall retain all of the Option Consideration.

          c. Seller’s Failure to Close. If Buyer exercises the Option to purchase the
Property, but thereafter, Seller fails to close on the purchase of the Property by the Closing
Date, time being of the essence, then Buyer may elect to treat this contract as canceled, in which
case the Option Price shall be returned, or Buyer may elect to treat this contract as being in full
force and effect and Buyer shall have the right to specific performance, as well as appropriate
damages.

     11. Quiet Title. Seller agrees that, in the event Buyer should commence a Quiet
Title action subsequent to the time that this Option has closed or terminated (should the Buyer not
exercise its option to purchase the Liberty interest), and if Seller has not acquired the Liberty
interest by such time, Seller will disclaim any interest in the royalty or net profit interest
described in that deed from Gold King, Inc. to Liberty Investment Corporation in that deed recorded
at Reception No. 129865 in the Real Property records of San Juan County, Colorado. Provided,
however, if the Seller has acquired the Liberty interest during the term of the option and Buyer
elects not to exercise its option to purchase the Liberty interest, then the Seller shall not be
required to disclaim its interest in the Liberty Investment Corporation.

     12. Notification. Seller agrees to pursue the acquisition of the Liberty Interest
during the term of this option. Seller agrees that within three days after receipt of acquiring
the Liberty Interest (if that transaction occurs within the time period of the option term) that it
will notify the Buyer of such fact to enable the Buyer, if it so chooses, to exercise the Option to
purchase the Liberty Interest in accordance with the terms of this contract.

     13. Miscellaneous.

          a. Recordation. This Agreement shall not be recorded with the County Clerk and
Recorder of San Juan County, Colorado.

          b. Real Estate Commissions. The parties warrant that neither party has utilized the
services of a real estate agent, and that no commissions will be due and payable at Closing.

          c. Notices. All notices, demands or other communications required or permitted under
this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given five (5) business days
