Appendix A

CHANGE IN CONTROL PROVISIONS

      1. Eligibility for Severance Compensation. Ted R. Jadwin (the “Executive”) shall be
eligible to receive severance compensation, in the amounts and at the times described in Paragraph
3, in the event that his employment with Trizec Properties, Inc. (the “Corporation”) is terminated
as of or after a “change in control of the Corporation” (as hereinafter defined), as follows:

      Within twelve (12) months after the change in control of the Corporation, and the Executive’s
termination of employment is not on account of:

     (a) Executive’s disability;

     (b) Executive’s death;

     (c) Executive’s conduct involving gross neglect, dishonesty, willful gross misconduct
or moral turpitude which, in any case, is injurious to the business of the Corporation; or

     (d) Executive’s voluntary resignation; provided that a resignation shall not be
considered to be voluntary for the purposes of this Appendix if it occurs because, within
twelve (12) months subsequent to the change in control, there has been: (i) a reduction
(other than across-the-board reductions which are made for all similarly-situated
executives) in the Executive’s base salary, benefits and/or opportunities for incentive
compensation; (ii) a reassignment of the Executive, without the Executive’s consent, to a
position which is, in light of the Executive’s particular professional background,
demonstrated abilities and career path, not reasonably suitable for the Executive; or (iii)
a relocation of the Executive’s primary work location, without the Executive’s consent, to a
geographic location which is more than 50 miles from the Executive’s primary work location
as contemplated by the offer letter to which this Appendix is attached.

      2. Change in Control. For the purpose of this Appendix, a “Change in Control of the
Corporation” shall be deemed to have occurred if:

     (a) any person (as defined in Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as such term is modified in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the
Exchange Act), other than (i) any employee plan established by the Company or any
Subsidiary, (ii) the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates (as defined in Rule 12b-2
promulgated under the Exchange Act), including any PM Affiliate (as hereinafter defined),
(iii) an underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such
securities, or (iv) a corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by stockholders of the
Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the Company, is or
becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company (not
including in the securities beneficially owned by such

 

 

person any securities acquired
directly from the Company or its affiliates other than in connection with the acquisition by
the Company or its affiliates of a business) representing 20% or more of either the then
outstanding Shares or the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding voting
securities; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control
shall not be deemed to occur solely because any person becomes a beneficial owner of more
than 20% of the then outstanding Shares or combined voting power of the Company’s then
outstanding voting securities as the result of the acquisition of Shares by the Company (a
“Company Share Repurchase”); however if such person acquires any additional Shares following
such Company Share Repurchase, such acquisition of additional Shares shall constitute a
Change in Control unless, after giving effect to such acquisition, such person will not
beneficially own 20% or more of the then outstanding Shares or combined voting power of the
Company’s then outstanding voting securities; and provided, further, that no Change in
Control shall be deemed to occur hereunder so long as the Company remains a PM Affiliate;

     (b) a change in the composition of the Board of the Company (the “Board”) such that
individuals who, as of May 29, 2003, constitute the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for
any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that any
individual becoming a member of the Board subsequent to the May 29, 2003 whose election, or
nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least a
majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board (including by prior
application of this proviso) shall be considered as though such individual were a member of
the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial
assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with
respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation
of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a person other than the Board;

     (c) the stockholders of the Company approve a merger or consolidation of the Company
with any other corporation or approve the issuance of voting securities in connection with a
merger or consolidation of the Company (or any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company)
pursuant to applicable stock exchange requirements, other than (i) a merger or consolidation
which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior
thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into
voting securities of the surviving entity or any parent thereof), in combination with the
ownership of any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit
plan of the Company or any Subsidiary, at least 50.1% of the combined voting power of the
voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity or any parent thereof outstanding
immediately after such merger or consolidation, (ii) a merger or consolidation with or into
a PM Affiliate or (iii) a merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization
of the Company (or similar transaction) in which no person (determined pursuant to clause
(a) above) is or becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the
Company (not including in the securities beneficially owned by such person any securities
acquired directly from the Company or its affiliates other than in connection with the
acquisition

 

 

by the Company or its affiliates of a business) representing 20% or more of
either the then outstanding shares of Stock or the combined voting power of the Company’s
then outstanding voting securities; provided, however that if, at any time on or prior to
approval by stockholders of a merger or consolidation, the Committee determines that the
consummation of such merger or consolidation is subject (whether for regulatory reasons or
otherwise) to significant uncertainty, the Committee may provide that a Change in Control
that would otherwise be deemed to occur hereunder upon such stockholder approval shall
instead occur only upon consummation of the relevant merger or consolidation (within a
specified time period following stockholder approval, if appropriate) or upon the occurrence
of any other event or events occurring prior to such consummation specified by the
Committee; or

     (d) the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation of the
Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially
all of the Company’s assets, other than a sale or disposition by the Company of all or
substantially all of the Company’s assets to (i) a PM Affiliate, or (ii) an entity, at least
50.1% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of which are owned by persons in
substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the Company immediately prior to
such sale.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no “Change in Control” shall be deemed to have occurred if there is
consummated any transaction or series of integrated transactions immediately following which the
record holders of Stock immediately prior to such transaction or series of transactions continue to
have substantially the same proportionate ownership in an entity which owns substantially all of
the assets of the Company immediately prior to such transaction or series of transactions.

As used in this Paragraph 2, the term “PM Affiliates” means Peter Munk, the Company and any entity
or person affiliated with Peter Munk; provided, however, that Peter Munk and such
affiliates shall cease to be deemed PM Affiliates if, at any time following May 29, 2003, they
cease to have continually possessed control (within the meaning of Rule 405 under Regulation C
promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) over the Company or any successor
thereto. In the event that Peter Munk and his affiliates cease to continuously possess control
over the Company (and thereby cease to constitute “PM Affiliates” hereunder), including, without
limitation, by reason of Mr. Munk’s death (such cessation of continuous control being hereinafter
referred to as a “PM Event”), (x) such PM Event shall not result automatically in a Change in
Control hereunder, even if any person (including, without limitation, Peter Munk or his affiliates
or any transferee of or successor to any of them) beneficially owns 20% of the then outstanding
Shares or combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities, and (y) the Committee
(A) promptly shall make a determination whether to accelerate Awards upon or in connection with
such PM Event, taking into consideration, among other things, whether any person beneficially owns
more than 20% of the then outstanding Shares or combined voting power of the Company’s then
outstanding securities or otherwise possesses actual or potential control over the Company, and (B)
if it determines not to accelerate Awards upon or in connection with such PM Event, shall establish
rules and guidelines to determine the circumstances following a PM Event when a Change in Control
will be deemed to occur.

 

 

      3. Amount and Payment of Transitional Compensation. In the event the Executive is
eligible for severance compensation pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 1 hereof, he shall,
upon execution (and non-revocation during the applicable revocation period) of a standard release
of all employment-related claims against the Corporation, be entitled to the following:

     (a) a lump sum payment, payable upon termination of employment, equal to six (6) months
of his then-current total compensation (base salary plus bonus); and

     (b) continuation of medical benefits for himself and his eligible dependents for the
six (6)-month period following termination of employment (with any COBRA continuation rights
commencing upon the end of this period), upon the same terms in effect for executives of the
Corporation generally during such six (6)-month period.

     (c) all outstanding stock options and grants would immediately vest as of the
termination date. In the case of stock options, Executive would have up to twelve (12)
months from the termination date to exercise them.

      4. No Funding of Severance Compensation. Nothing herein contained shall require or be
deemed to require the Corporation to segregate, earmark or otherwise set aside any funds or assets
to provide for any payments required to be made hereunder, and the Executive’s right to
transitional compensation hereunder shall be solely that of a general, unsecured creditor of the
Corporation.

      5. Deduction and Withholding. All benefits payable to the Executive pursuant to this
Agreement shall be subject to ordinary payroll taxes and withholding as required by applicable law.exv10w19

 

Exhibit 10.19

First Amendment to the Trizec Properties, Inc.

2002 Long Term Incentive Plan

(Amended and Restated Effective May 29, 2003)

     WHEREAS, Trizec Properties, Inc. (the “Corporation”) has adopted the Trizec Properties, Inc.
2002 Long Term Incentive Plan, which plan was amended and restated effective May 29, 2003 upon
receipt of the approval of the Corporation’s stockholders (the “Incentive Plan”); and

     WHEREAS, Section 13 of the Incentive Plan provides that the Plan may be amended by the Board
of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) without any stockholder approval to the extent that such
amendment does not require a stockholder approval under any securities, corporate or other laws;

     WHEREAS, at a meeting held on December 10, 2004, the Board of Directors approved this
amendment to the Incentive Plan, after having determined that such amendment does not require any
stockholder approval;

     NOW, THEREFORE, the Incentive Plan is amended by deleting and replacing the
definition of “Subsidiary” as it appears in Section 2 of the Incentive Plan with the following
definition:

“Subsidiary” means a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or any other
form of business entity, domestic or foreign, of which not less than 10% of the equity
interest is held directly or indirectly by the Company or a Subsidiary, whether or not such
corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or any other form of business
entity now exists or is hereafter formed, created, organized or acquired by the Company or a
Subsidiary; provided, however, that for the purposes of determining the Employees who are
eligible to receive Awards of Incentive Stock Options, the term “Subsidiary” shall be
limited to a corporation or trust, domestic or foreign, of which not less than 50% of the
equity interest is held directly or indirectly by the Company or one or more Subsidiaries
that is a corporate or trust entity, whether or not such corporation or trust now exists or
is hereafter formed, created, organized or acquired by the Company or a Subsidiary that is a
corporate or trust entity.

 

 

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment has been executed by a duly authorized officer of the
Corporation, this 10th day of December, 2004.
