AMENDED AND RESTATED DEFERRED COMPENSATION

PURPOSE

 

The Board of Directors of
Capmark Financial Group Inc. has determined that it is in the best interests of
Capmark Financial Group Inc. to amend and restate the Capmark Financial Group
Inc. Non-Employee Directors’ Deferred Compensation and Stock Award Plan to
comply with certain tax requirements. 
The purpose of this Capmark Financial Group Inc. Non-Employee Directors’
Amended and Restated Deferred Compensation and Stock Award Plan is to provide
individuals who are not employees of Capmark Financial Group Inc. or its
Subsidiaries (as defined below) who serve as members of the Board (as defined
below) an opportunity to defer payment of all or a portion of their Fees (as
defined below) in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein.

 

ARTICLE I

 

DEFINITIONS

 

1.1           “Affiliate” means with
respect to any Person, any entity directly or indirectly controlling,
controlled by or under common control with such Person.

 

1.2           “Board” means the Board
of Directors of the Company.

 

1.3           “Change in Control”
means (i) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Investor LLC,
the Company, or Capmark Finance Inc. to an Unaffiliated Person; (ii) a
sale by the Company or Investor LLC, in a single transaction or in a related
series of transactions, of the voting stock of the Company resulting in more
than 50% of the voting stock of the Company being held (either directly or
indirectly through Investor LLC, and which for the avoidance of doubt includes
the distribution of any interests in Investor LLC being distributed to any
limited partners of any Investor, which are not Affiliates of that Investor) by
an Unaffiliated Person; (iii) a sale by the Company or Investor LLC, in an
unrelated series of transactions, of the voting stock of the Company, as a
result of which an Unaffiliated Person is (either directly or indirectly through
Investor LLC, and which for the avoidance of doubt includes the distribution of
any interests in Investor LLC being distributed to any limited partners of any
Investor, which are not Affiliates of that Investor) the single largest holder
of voting stock of the Company; or (iv) a merger or consolidation of the
Company or Investor LLC into an Unaffiliated Person; if and only if any such event (or as a result of any such
event) listed in (i) - (iv) above results in the inability of the
Investors and any of their respective Affiliates, either as a Group or
individually (through Investor LLC or otherwise), to elect a majority of the
Board or board of directors of the resulting entity; provided, however,
to the extent any such event listed in (i) - (iv) above occurs but at
such time either the Investors and their Affiliates as a Group, or any of the
Investors or their respective Affiliates individually (through Investor LLC or
otherwise) retain the ability to elect a majority of the Board or the board of
directors of the resulting entity, a Change in Control shall be deemed to have
occurred upon any later date on which neither the Investors and their
respective Affiliates as a Group nor any of the Investors or their Affiliates
individually retain 

 

 

such ability.  For purposes of this definition, the term “Unaffiliated
Person” means any Person or Group who is not (x) an Investor or any
member of an Investor, (y) an Affiliate of an Investor or any member of an
Investor or (z) an entity in which an Investor or any member of an
Investor holds, directly or indirectly, a majority of the economic interests in
such entity.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if any of the transactions described in (i), (ii) or (iv) of
the preceding sentence shall occur and the other Person or Group involved in
such transaction (or its parent entity) is an Affiliate of any Investor because
it is under common control by an ultimate parent entity, but the day-to-day operations of, and key business decisions
regarding, such Affiliate are controlled by an entity that is, or individuals
who are, principally engaged in a business other than the management or
operations of private equity funds (any such Affiliate, a “Strategic
Business Affiliate”), then the determination of whether a Change in Control
has occurred shall be made by applying the relevant test in clause (i), (ii) or
(iv) above (along with the test of whether the Investors and their
Affiliates as a Group or any of the Investors or their Affiliates individually
(through Investor LLC or otherwise) lose the ability to elect a majority of the
Board) as if the Strategic Business Affiliate was not an Affiliate of any of
the Investors and by treating the voting power of the Strategic Business
Affiliate in the Company (or the resulting entity) as if it were held by a
Person or Group unaffiliated with any of the Investors.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 1.3
to the contrary, no event listed in (i) – (iv) above shall constitute
a Change in Control hereunder unless such event would also constitute a change
in the ownership or effective control of a corporation, or a change in the
ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of a corporation, in each
case, within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.

 

1.4           “Code” means the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

 

1.5           “Committee” means the
Executive Development and Compensation Committee of the Board or such other
committee as may be appointed by the Board to administer this Plan.

 

1.6           “Company” means Capmark
Financial Group Inc.

 

1.7           “Director” means a
member of the Board who is not an employee of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries.

 

1.8           “Exchange Act” means
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

 

1.9           “Fair Market Value”
means, on a per Share basis, (i) if there is a public market for the
Shares on such date, the average of the high and low closing bid prices of the
Shares on such stock exchange on which the Shares are principally trading on
the applicable date, or, if there were no sales on such date, on the closest
preceding date on which there were sales of Shares, or (ii) if there is no
public market for the Shares on such date, the fair market value of the Shares
as determined in good faith by the Board without any discounts for minority
interests.

 

2

 

1.10         “Fees” means amounts
(including any annual retainer, which is generally payable in quarterly
installments in cash, or upon the election of a Director, in Shares) earned for
serving as a member of the Board or any committee of the Board.

 

1.11         “Group” means a “group”
as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act.

 

1.12         “Investor LLC” means
GMACCH Investor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.

 

1.13         “Investors” means,
collectively, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P., Five Mile Capital
Partners LLC, The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., and Dune Capital Management
L.P.

 

1.14         “Person” means a “person,”
as such term is used for purposes of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of
the Exchange Act (or any successor section thereto).

 

1.15         “Plan” means this Capmark
Financial Group Inc. Non-Employee Directors’ Amended and Restated Deferred
Compensation and Stock Award Plan, as it may be amended from time to time.

 

1.16         “Separation from Service”
shall mean a Director’s separation from service with the Company and its
Affiliates within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the
Code.

 

1.17         “Share Account” means the
account created by the Company pursuant to Article III of this Plan in
accordance with an election by a Director to defer Fees and receive
share-related compensation under Article II hereof.

 

1.18         “Shares” means the common
shares of the Company, par value $0.001 per share.

 

1.19         “Subsidiary” means with
respect to any Person, any corporation, joint venture, partnership, limited
liability company or other entity of which such Person, directly or indirectly,
owns or controls capital stock (or other equity interests) representing more
than fifty percent (50%) of the general voting power under ordinary
circumstances of such entity.

 

1.20         “Year” means any calendar
year.

 

1.21         “He”, “Him” or “His”

ARTICLE II

 

ELECTION TO
DEFER

 

2.1           A Director may elect,
on or before December 31 of any Year, to irrevocably defer payment of all
or a specified part of all Fees to be earned during the Year 

 

3

 

following the
Year in which such election is made and succeeding Years (until the Director
ceases to be a Director or elects (in writing) to change such election pursuant
to Section 2.3 herein); provided, however, that with respect
to the 2006 Year a Director may elect, within thirty (30) days after the
adoption of this Plan, to defer all or a specified part of all Fees earned on
or after the date of such election (and which have not otherwise been paid to
him).  In addition, any person who shall
become a Director during any Year, and who was not a Director of the Company on
the preceding December 31 or otherwise an employee of the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries who participated in any other deferred compensation plan of
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, may elect, before the Director’s term
begins (but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the date such person
first becomes eligible to participate in this Plan), to defer payment of all or
a specified part of such Fees earned during the remainder of such Year and for
succeeding Years.  Any Fees deferred
pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall be paid to the Director at the time(s) and
in the manner specified in Article IV hereof.

 

2.2           The election to
participate in the deferred compensation portion of the Plan shall be
designated by submitting a letter in the form attached hereto as Appendix A
(the “Election Form”) to the Executive Vice President of Human Resources
or General Counsel of the Company.

 

2.3           The deferral election
shall continue from Year to Year and become irrevocable on December 31 of
each Year, unless the Director changes or terminates such election by written
request delivered to the Executive Vice President of Human Resources or General
Counsel of the Company by no later than December 31 of the Year prior to
the commencement of the Year for which such changed or terminated election
shall be effective.  If the Director
changes his existing election to defer Fees in order to receive Fees on a
current basis, such Director may not subsequently re-elect to defer payment of
Fees for at least one (1) Year.

 

ARTICLE III

 

DEFERRED
COMPENSATION ACCOUNTS

 

3.1           The Company shall
maintain separate accounts on its books and records for the Fees deferred by
each Director, based on the elections each Director has made.

 

3.2           If a Director has
elected to defer all or a portion of his Fees, the Company shall credit, with
respect to each fiscal quarter, an account (the “Share Account”)
established for each Director with the number of hypothetical Shares equal to (x) the
deferred Fees otherwise payable to the Director for such fiscal quarter as to
which an election to receive Share-related deferred compensation has been made,
divided by (y) the Fair Market Value of a Share as determined by the Board
at the first meeting of the Board occurring after the end of the applicable
fiscal quarter (the “First Meeting”). 
The Company shall so credit the Director’s Share Account within ten
business days following such First Meeting.

 

4

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the event that no such Fair Market Value determination is
made by the Board at the First Meeting, all Fees otherwise to be deferred into
the Director’s Share Account under this Section 3.2 shall instead be
credited to a hypothetical cash account maintained for the benefit of the
Director (the “Cash Account”), which Cash Account shall be payable in
cash at such time(s) as the Director’s Share Account is payable under Article IV
of this Plan; provided, however, that in the event that the Board
determines the Fair Market Value of a Share at any meeting subsequent to the
First Meeting (the “Subsequent Meeting”), within ten business days
following such Subsequent Meeting, the amount of Fees that were credited to the
Director’s Cash Account shall be converted into hypothetical Shares to be
credited to the Director’s Share Account, with the number of hypothetical
Shares to be equal to (x) the amount of Fees that had been deferred into
the Cash Account, divided by (y) the Fair Market Value of a Share as
determined by the Board at the Subsequent Meeting.

 

3.3           The Company shall
credit, on the date that any dividends are paid with respect to the
hypothetical Shares, the Share Account of each Director who has elected to
defer Fees with the number of hypothetical Shares equivalent to (x) the
product of (a) the amount of any dividend paid, multiplied by (b) the
number of hypothetical Shares represented in the relevant Director’s Share
Account, divided by (y) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the dividend
payment date.

 

3.4           If adjustments are made
to the authorized or issued share capital of the Company as a result of
split-ups, recapitalizations, mergers, consolidations, or other corporate
events, an appropriate adjustment shall also be made in the number of
hypothetical Shares credited to each Director’s Share Account.

 

3.5           The value of such
Shares shall be computed to two decimal places.

 

3.6           The right to receive
Shares at a later date shall not entitle any Person to rights of a stockholder
with respect to such Common Stock unless and until Shares have been issued to
such Person pursuant to Article IV hereof.

 

3.7           This Plan is intended
to be a non-qualified, unfunded deferred compensation arrangement.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to
give a Director, a Director’s beneficiary, or any other Person any interest in
the assets of the Company or create any kind of fiduciary relationship between
the Company and any such Person.  To the
extent that any Person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company
under the Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured
general creditor of the Company.

 

ARTICLE IV

 

PAYMENT OF
DEFERRED COMPENSATION

 

4.1           Subject to Section 7.3,
amounts contained in a Director’s Share Account, and to the extent applicable,
a Director’s Cash Account, shall be distributed on the 

 

5

 

earlier to
occur of the (i) first day of the Year following the Year in which a
Director’s Separation from Service occurs; and (ii) date that a Director
designates on the Election Form as the date of distribution; so long as
any such date shall constitute a permissible time or event upon which a
distribution may be made under Section 409A(a)(2)(A) of the
Code.  The total amounts credited to a
Director’s Share Account shall be paid in Shares (equal to the number of
hypothetical Shares that have accumulated in the Director’s Share Account
pursuant to Article III), unless the Company elects to pay total amounts
credited to a Director’s Share Account in cash. 
If the Company elects to make the payment from the Director’s Share
Account in cash, the cash payment will be equal to (x) the number of
Shares credited to a Director’s Share Account, multiplied by (y) the Fair Market
Value of a Share on the payment date.

 

4.2           Each Director shall
have the right to designate a beneficiary who is to succeed to his right to
receive payments hereunder in the event of his death.  Any designated beneficiary shall receive
payments in the same manner as the Director would have received payments if he
had lived.  No designation of beneficiary
or change in beneficiary shall be valid unless made in writing signed by the
Director and filed with the Executive Vice President of Human Resources or
General Counsel of the Company.

 

ARTICLE V

 

STOCK AWARDS

 

5.1           A Director may elect,
on or before December 31 of any Year, to irrevocably receive currently in
Shares payment of all or a specified part of all Fees to be earned during the
Year following the Year in which such election is made and succeeding Years
(until the Director ceases to be a Director or elects (in writing) to change
such election); provided, however, that with respect to the 2006
Year a Director may elect, within thirty (30) days after the adoption of this
Plan, to receive all or a specified part of all Fees to be earned on or after
the date of such election (and which have not been paid to him).  Any person who shall become a Director during
any Year, and who was not a Director of the Company on the preceding December 31,
may elect, before the Director’s term begins (but in no event later than thirty
(30) days after the date such person first becomes eligible to participate in
this Plan), to receive current payment in Shares of all or a specified part of
such Fees earned during the remainder of such Year and for succeeding
Years.  Any Fees paid currently in Shares
pursuant to this Section 5.1 shall be paid to the Director in the manner
specified in Section 5.3 hereof.

 

5.2           The election to
participate in the stock award portion of the Plan shall be designated on the
Election Form.

 

5.3           The election of a
Director to receive all or a portion of his Fees currently in Shares shall
continue from Year to Year unless the Director changes or terminates such
election by written request delivered to the Executive Vice President of 

 

6

 

Human
Resources or General Counsel of the Company by no later than December 31
of the Year prior to the commencement of the Year for which such changed or
terminated election shall be effective.

 

5.4           If a Director has
elected to receive all or a portion of his Fees currently in Shares, the
Company shall issue to the Director or purchase in the open market on behalf of
the Director, with respect to each fiscal quarter, Shares equal to (x) the
Fees otherwise payable to the Director for such fiscal quarter as to which an
election to receive Shares currently has been made, divided by (y) the
Fair Market Value of a Share as determined by the Board at the first meeting of
the Board occurring after the end of the applicable fiscal quarter.  The Company shall so issue or purchase such
Shares within ten business days following such first meeting.

 

In the event
that no such Fair Market Value determination is made by the Board at such
meeting, all Fees otherwise to be paid in the form of Shares under this Section 5.4
shall be paid within ten business days following such first meeting in the form
of cash.

 

ARTICLE VI

 

ADMINISTRATION;
INTERPRETATION;

SHARES AVAILABLE FOR DISTRIBUTION

 

6.1           The Committee shall
administer and interpret the Plan in its sole discretion, and the Company shall
maintain the Plan at its expense.  All
decisions made by the Committee with respect to issues hereunder shall be final
and binding on all parties.

 

6.2           Except to the extent
required by law, the right of any Director or any beneficiary to any benefit or
to any payment hereunder shall not be subject in any manner to attachment or
other legal process for the debts of such Director or beneficiary, and any such
benefit or payment shall not be subject to alienation, sale, transfer
assignment or encumbrance.

 

6.3           The Company may, but
shall not be obligated to, reserve Shares, purchase Shares in the open market,
and issue Shares for the purpose of providing for the payment of obligations
arising under this Plan.

 

ARTICLE VII

 

AMENDMENT OF
PLAN; GOVERNING LAW; CHANGE IN CONTROL

 

7.1           The Plan may be
amended, suspended or terminated in whole or in part from time to time by the
Board except that no amendment, suspension, or termination shall apply to the
payment to any Director or beneficiary of a deceased Director of any amounts
previously credited to a Director’s Share Account or Cash Account, to the
extent applicable.

 

7

 

7.2           This Plan shall be
governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of New York.

 

7.3           In the event of a
Change in Control, all amounts contained in each Director’s Share Account and Cash
Account, to the extent applicable, shall be distributed (in a lump sum, cash
payment or in Shares, as the Director shall elect on the Election Form with
respect to the Director’s Share Account) on the date of the Change in
Control.  If the Director elects to
receive the payment in cash, the cash payment will be equal to (x) the
number of Shares credited to a Director’s Share Account, multiplied by (y) the
Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of the Change in Control.

 

7.4           Notwithstanding any
other provision of the Plan, this Plan is intended to comply with Section 409A
of the Code (“Section 409A”) and shall at all times be interpreted
in accordance with such intent.  In
furtherance thereof, no payments may be deferred, accelerated, extended, paid
out or modified under the Plan other than to the extent permitted under Section 409A.  In the event that is reasonably determined by
the Board that, as a result of Section 409A, payments under the Plan may
not be made at the time contemplated by the terms of the Plan without causing
the Director to be subject to taxation under Section 409A, the Company
will make such payment on the first day that would not result in Director
incurring any tax liability under Section 409A, which, if the Director is
a “specified employee” within the meaning of the Section 409A, shall be
the first day following the six-month period beginning on the date of the
Director’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.  The Company shall have no liability to any
Director for any failure to comply with Section 409A hereunder.

 

7.5           To the extent that the
Company determines that Directors may be given greater flexibility to modify or
revoke deferral elections under the Plan in a manner consistent with Section 409A
(based on future guidance promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service and the
Treasury Department from time to time), the Company may (but shall not be
obligated to) amend the Plan to provide for such greater flexibility.

 

Adopted and effective, as amended and restated, the 29th day of October, 2008.

Financial Group Inc. Executive Deferred Compensation and Stock Award Plan to
comply with certain tax requirements. 
The purpose of this Capmark Financial Group Inc. Executive Amended and

determined to be members of a select group of highly compensated employees an

than 50% of the voting stock of the Company being held (either directly or
indirectly through Investor LLC, and which for the avoidance of doubt includes
the distribution of any interests in Investor LLC being distributed to any
limited partners of any Investor, which are not Affiliates of that Investor) by
an Unaffiliated Person; (iii) a sale by the Company or Investor LLC, in an

the Investors and their respective Affiliates as a Group nor any of the
Investors or their Affiliates individually retain such ability.  For purposes of this definition, the term “Unaffiliated
Person” means any Person or Group who is not (x) an Investor or any
member of an Investor, (y) an Affiliate of an Investor or any member of an

Investor holds, directly or indirectly, a majority of the economic interests in
such entity.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if any of the transactions described in (i), (ii) or (iv) of
the preceding sentence shall occur and the other Person or Group involved in
such transaction (or its parent entity) is an Affiliate of any Investor because
it is under common control by an ultimate parent entity, but the day-to-day operations of, and key business decisions
regarding, such Affiliate are controlled by an entity that is, or individuals
who are, principally engaged in a business other than the management or
operations of private equity funds (any such Affiliate, a “Strategic
Business Affiliate”), then the determination of whether a Change in Control
has occurred shall be made by applying the relevant test in clause (i), (ii) or
(iv) above (along with the test of whether the Investors and their
Affiliates as a Group or any of the Investors or their Affiliates individually
(through Investor LLC or otherwise) lose the ability to elect a majority of the
Board) as if the Strategic Business Affiliate was not an Affiliate of any of
the Investors and by treating the voting power of the Strategic Business
Affiliate in the Company (or the resulting entity) as if it were held by a
Person or Group unaffiliated with any of the Investors.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 1.4
to the contrary, no event listed in (i) – (iv) above shall constitute
a Change in Control hereunder unless such event would also constitute a change
in the ownership or effective control of a corporation, or a change in the
ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of a corporation, in each
case, within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.

Compensation to be earned during the Bonus Year following the Year in which such

thirty (30) days after the date such person first becomes eligible to
participate in this Plan), to defer payment of all or a specified part of such
Compensation earned during the remainder of such Bonus Year.  Any Compensation deferred pursuant to this Section 2.1
shall be paid to the Executive at the time(s) and in the manner specified
in Article IV hereof.

 

2.2           The election to
participate in the deferred compensation portion of the Plan shall be
designated by submitting a letter in the form attached hereto as Appendix A
(the “Election Form”) to the Executive Vice President of Human Resources
or General Counsel of the Company.

 

ARTICLE III

 

DEFERRED COMPENSATION ACCOUNTS

 

3.1           The Company shall
maintain separate accounts on its books and records for the Compensation
deferred by each Executive, based on the elections each Executive has made.

 

4

 

3.2           If an Executive has
elected to defer a portion of his Compensation, the Company shall credit, on
the tenth business day following the date the Company pays the Executive’s
Compensation in respect of the Bonus Year, an account (the “Share Account”)
established for each Executive with the number of hypothetical Shares equal to (x) the
deferred Compensation otherwise payable to the Executive in respect of the
Bonus Year as to which an election to receive Share-related deferred
compensation has been made, divided by (y) the then most recently
determined Fair Market Value of one Share.

 

3.3           The Company shall
credit, within ten business days after the date that any dividends are paid
with respect to the hypothetical Shares, the Share Account of each Executive
who has elected to defer Compensation with the number of hypothetical Shares

relevant Executive’s Share Account, divided by (y) the then most recently
determined Fair Market Value of one Share.

Shares credited to each Executive’s Share Account.

 

3.5           The value of such
Shares shall be computed to two decimal places.

Account.

 

ARTICLE IV

 

PAYMENT OF DEFERRED COMPENSATION

 

4.1           Subject to Section 7.2,
amounts contained in an Executive’s Share Account shall be distributed no later
than the tenth business day following the earlier to occur of (i) January 1
of the Year following the Year in which any Separation from Service occurs and (ii) the
date that an Executive designates on the Election Form as the date of
distribution; so long as any such date shall constitute a permissible time or
event upon which a distribution may be made under Section 409A(a)(2)(A) of
the Code.  The total amounts credited to
an Executive’s Share Account shall be paid in Shares (equal to the number of
hypothetical Shares that have accumulated in the Executive’s Share Account
pursuant to Article III), unless the Company elects to pay total amounts
credited to an Executive’s Share Account in cash.  If the Company elects to make the payment in
cash, the cash payment will be equal to (x) the number of Shares credited
to an Executive’s Share Account, multiplied by (y) the then most recently
determined Fair Market Value of one Share, provided, however, any
such cash payment made as a result of any Separation from Service

Shares credited to an Executive’s Share Account, multiplied by (y) the
applicable repurchase price otherwise payable for Shares held by the Executive,
depending upon the circumstances under which the Separation from Service
occurs, as set forth in Section 6(a), (b) or (c) of the
Management Stockholder’s Agreement, as applicable.

payments in the same manner as the Executive would have received payments if he
were living.  No designation of
beneficiary or change in beneficiary shall be valid unless made in writing
signed by the Executive and filed with the Executive Vice President of Human
Resources or General Counsel of the Company.

payment of up to 100% of the difference, if any, between (i) the amount of
Compensation earned during the Bonus Year and deferred pursuant to Article II
above, and (ii) $1,000,000.  Any
person who shall become an Executive during any Bonus Year, and who was not an
Executive of the Company on the preceding December 31, may elect, before
the employee becomes an Executive (but in no event later than thirty (30) days
after the date such person first becomes eligible to participate in this Plan),
to receive current payment in Shares of all or a specified part of such
Compensation earned during the remainder of such Bonus Year.  Any Compensation paid currently in Shares
pursuant to this Section 5.1 shall be paid to the Executive in the manner
specified in Section 5.3 hereof.

 

5.2           The election to

ARTICLE VI

 

GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

6.1           The Committee shall
administer and interpret the Plan in its sole discretion, and the Company shall
maintain the Plan at its expense.  All
decisions made by the Committee with respect to issues hereunder shall be final
and binding on all parties.  The Company
shall indemnify and hold harmless the Committee against any and all claims,
loss, damage, expense or liability arising from any action or failure to act
with respect to this Plan, except in the case of gross negligence or willful
misconduct.

 

6.2           Except to the extent required
by law, the right of any Executive or any beneficiary to any benefit or to any
payment hereunder shall not be subject in any manner to attachment or other
legal process for the debts of such Executive or beneficiary, and any such
benefit or payment shall not be subject to alienation, sale, transfer
assignment or encumbrance.

 

6.3           The Company may, but
shall not be obligated to, reserve Shares, purchase Shares in the open market,
and issue Shares for the purpose of providing for the payment of obligations
arising under this Plan; provided, however, that in the event
applicable securities laws so require, the Shares to be issued under this Plan
shall be issued out of the 2006 Equity Plan for Key Employees of Capmark
Financial Group Inc. and its Affiliates.

 

6.4           All payments made
hereunder to an Executive or his or her beneficiary shall be subject to the
withholding of such amounts by the Company as it reasonably may determine it is
required to withhold pursuant to any applicable Federal, state, local or foreign
law or regulation.  Additionally, to the
extent that amounts deferred by an Executive under the Plan are subject to
Social Security or Medicare tax (collectively, “FICA Tax”) or other
taxes when such amounts are deferred, the Company may (i) withhold for
such taxes from the non-deferred portion of Compensation payable to the
Executive at such time, (ii) reduce such Executive’s Share Account in a
manner specified by the Committee (and consistent with Section 409A of the
Code) to pay the applicable FICA Tax withholdings and any additional Federal,
state, local or foreign taxes thereon, or (iii) allow the Executive to
remit to the Company, no later than five business days after the date such
taxes are due, an amount in cash (payable by wire transfer or certified check)
equal to the amount of such taxes due.

 

6.5           This Plan is intended
to be a non-qualified, unfunded deferred compensation arrangement.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to
give an Executive, an Executive’s beneficiary, or any other Person any interest
in the assets of the Company or create any kind of fiduciary relationship
between the Company and any such Person. 
To the extent that any Person acquires a right to receive payments from
the Company under the Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of
any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

 

7

 

6.6           This Plan is an
unfunded plan that is either not classified as an “employee pension benefit
plan” or “pension plan” within the meaning of Section 3(2) of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”),
or is an unfunded plan maintained primarily to provide deferred compensation
benefits for a select group of “management or highly compensated employees”
within the meaning of Sections 201, 301, and 401 of ERISA, and therefore may be
exempt from the provisions of Parts 2, 3 and 4 of Title I of ERISA upon the
making of certain filings with the U.S. Department of Labor.

 

6.7           Whenever notice is
required or permitted by this Plan to be given to an Executive, such notice
shall be in writing (including electronic mail, facsimile or similar writing)
and shall be given to any Executive at his or her address or electronic mail
address or facsimile number shown in the Company’s books and records.  Each such notice shall be effective (i) if
given by electronic mail or facsimile, upon electronic confirmation of receipt,
or (ii) if given by any other means, when delivered to and receipted for
at the address of such Executive, as the case may be, specified as
aforesaid.  Notices to the Company or the
Committee under the Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand delivered
or sent by registered or certified mail. 
Such notice shall be deemed given as of the date of delivery or, if
delivery is made by mail, as of the date shown on the postmark on the receipt
for registration or certification.  Any
such notice shall be directed to the attention of the Committee at the Company’s
address and shall comply with such other requirements as the Committee may
establish from time to time.

 

ARTICLE VII

 

AMENDMENT OF PLAN; CHANGE IN CONTROL;

 

GOVERNING LAW; DISPUTE RESOLUTION; SECTION 409A

 

7.1           The Plan may be
amended, suspended or terminated in whole or in part from time to time by the
Board except that no amendment, suspension, or termination shall apply to the
payment to any Executive or beneficiary of a deceased Executive of any amounts
previously credited to an Executive’s Share Account.

 

7.2           In the event of a
Change in Control, all amounts contained in each Executive’s Share Account
shall be distributed (in a lump sum, cash payment or in Shares, as the
Executive shall elect on the Election Form) no later than the tenth business
day following the date of the Change in Control.  If the Executive elects to receive the
payment in cash, the cash payment will be equal to (x) the number of
Shares credited to an Executive’s Share Account, multiplied by (y) the
Fair Market Value of one Share on the date of the Change in Control.

 

7.3           This Plan shall be
governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of New York.

 

8

 

7.4           If any contest or
dispute arises with respect to the Plan, such contest or dispute shall first be
attempted to be resolved in accordance with the claims procedures set forth in Article VIII
below.  If the contest or dispute cannot
be settled through such procedures, the parties agree to binding arbitration
for resolution in New York, New York.  If
any contest or dispute arises with respect to the Plan, and such contest or
dispute is not resolved pursuant to the claims procedures set forth above, this
Plan shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the
laws of New York.

 

7.5           Notwithstanding any
other provision of the Plan, this Plan is intended to comply with Section 409A
of the Code (“Section 409A”) and shall at all times be interpreted
in accordance with such intent.  In
furtherance thereof, no payments may be deferred, accelerated, extended, paid
out or modified under the Plan other than to the extent permitted under Section 409A.

 

7.6           Notwithstanding
anything in this Plan to the contrary, if an Executive is a Specified Employee
(as defined under Section 409A) at the time of his or her Separation from
Service, any payments due hereunder upon a Separation from Service that are
deemed to constitute deferred compensation that would be made within the
six-month period immediately following the Separation from Service shall
instead be made on the first business day following the date that is six months
following such Separation from Service. 
The Company shall have no liability to any Executive for any failure to
comply with Section 409A hereunder.

 

7.7           To the extent that the
Company determines that Executives may be given greater flexibility to modify
or revoke deferral elections under the Plan in a manner consistent with Section 409A
(based on future guidance promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service and the
Treasury Department from time to time), the Company may (but shall not be
obligated to) amend the Plan to provide for such greater flexibility.

 

ARTICLE VIII

I hereby
elect, pursuant to the Capmark Financial Group Inc. Executive Amended and
Restated Deferred Compensation and Stock Award Plan (the “Plan”), to
defer receipt, in the aggregate, of no less than $250,000 and no more than
$1,000,000 of my Compensation payable in respect of the Bonus Year following
the Year in which this election is made, in accordance with my elections
indicated below.  Capitalized terms not
defined herein are defined in the Plan.

 

(1)           I elect to have my Compensation deferred as
follows:

 

An
amount of my aggregate Compensation payable for the Bonus Year equal to the
greater of

 

(x)                 %
of such amount or (y) $

 

shall
be deferred to my Share Account, to which the Company will credit hypothetical
Shares in the manner set forth in the Plan. 
However, I understand that in no event will I be permitted to
defer less than $250,000 or more than $1,000,000, such that if (i) the
percentage I elect in (x) above is greater than zero but less than
$250,000, the Company will nevertheless automatically defer a full $250,000 of
Compensation payable for the Bonus Year and (ii) if the percentage I elect
in (x) above is greater than $1,000,000, the Company will only defer
$1,000,000, and I will receive the excess of my Compensation in cash.

 

I
further understand that in the event my aggregate Compensation payable for the
Bonus Year does not exceed $250,000, I will receive the entire amount of my
Compensation payable for the Bonus Year in cash.

 

(2)           I understand that my Share Account generally
shall become payable on a specified date on which I elect to receive payment of
my deferred Compensation (the “Election Date”), but in any event on the
earlier to occur of (i) January 1 of the Year following the Year in
which any Separation from Service occurs and (ii) the date of the
occurrence of a Change in Control.

 

My
Election Date is the following: 
                              ,

elect to receive the payments due to me pursuant to the Plan in the event of a
Change in Control as follows (check the method desired below):

 

                     in
a cash, lump sum payment

 

                     in
Shares

 

11

 

(3)           The remainder of my Compensation shall not
be deferred into hypothetical Shares, and shall be payable to me currently as
follows:

 

An
amount of my aggregate Compensation for the Bonus Year equal to

 

(x) $                          
or (y)                       %,
which in any event may not be more than the amount of the difference, if any,
between (i) the amount of Compensation earned during the Bonus Year and
deferred as set forth in paragraph (1) above and (ii) $1,000,000,

 

shall
be paid to me in Shares at such time(s) as annual bonuses or incentive
compensation are otherwise paid, in accordance with the Plan.

 

I understand
that the remainder of my aggregate Compensation for the Bonus Year (and any
amount of my aggregate Compensation for the Bonus Year that is in excess of
$1,000,000) shall be paid to me in cash at such time(s) as annual bonuses
or incentive compensation is otherwise paid, in accordance with the applicable
plan.

 

I further
understand that (i) to the extent I make no election under this Election
Notice or do not designate the manner in which any portion of my Compensation
that I elect to receive currently shall be payable to me, I will receive such
portion(s) of my Compensation in cash; and (ii) all elections I have
made above with respect to current receipt of my Compensation applicable to a
particular Year may not be amended or revoked with respect to the Bonus Year.

 

In the event
of my death prior to receipt of all or any balance of such Compensation and
dividends, if any, thereon so accumulated, I designate
                                  
as my beneficiary to receive Shares (or, if applicable, the funds) payable.

 

Acknowledged and Agreed this        day
