“Company”), and Daniel B. Hurwitz (the “Grantee”).

          WHEREAS, the Company desires to incentivize the Grantee to assist in causing the Company to
achieve superior financial performance, and the Grantee desires to be so incentivized;

          NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements and covenants set forth in this

such substitutions or adjustments, if any, as are deemed necessary or equitable in its sole
discretion to preserve the intent of the Plan and to avoid any unintended windfalls or hardships
with respect to the number or valuation of Award Shares (as hereinafter defined). Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, if no Equity Appreciation Metric or FFO Metric is achieved in
total during the Measurement Period, but after the Measurement Date the Committee determines in its
sole discretion that any or all of such Metrics have been substantially achieved during the
Measurement Period, then the Committee shall have the discretion to award to the Grantee an Award
(in such form as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine) equal to 25% of the Award
Value that would have been awarded had all such Metrics been achieved in total.

          3. Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein without definitions shall have the
meanings given to those terms in the Plan. In addition, as used herein:

the Company, which failure has not been cured within fifteen (15) days after the Company gives
notice thereof to the Grantee; or (ii) the Grantee’s material breach of any provision of this

merger, sale, liquidation or dissolution and (B) there shall not exist on such business day any
fact or circumstance that shall make it reasonably unlikely that such closing shall not occur as
scheduled; or (ii) any person or other entity (other than the Company or a Subsidiary or any
Company employee benefit plan (including any trustee of any such plan acting in its capacity as
trustee)) becomes the beneficial owner of securities of the Company representing 51% or more of the

individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the entire Board cease to constitute a

days, as the case may be, the Grantee, by reason of his physical or mental disability or illness,
shall have been unable to discharge his duties as an employee of the Company. The date of

Award Value divided by the Share Price with fractional Common Shares rounded up to the nearest
whole number of Common Shares, (ii) the number of Equity Appreciation Shares

 

 

and (iii) the Discretionary Award Value divided by the Share Price with fractional Common Shares

in Award Shares will terminate without further action.

          7. Transferability. This Agreement, the Award and the Award Shares will not be
assignable or transferable by the Grantee; provided, however, that no provision in

          (a) The Grantee shall have no rights as a shareholder of the Company (including, without
limitation, the right to receive dividends or voting rights) with respect to the Award or the Award
Shares until the date on which a stock certificate (or certificates) representing Award Shares
shall be issued.

          (b) The obligations of the Company under this Agreement will be merely that of an unfunded and
unsecured promise of the Company to deliver Award Shares (or cash) in the future, and the rights of
the Grantee will be no greater than that of an unsecured general creditor. No assets of the
Company will be held or set aside as security for the obligations of the Company under this
Agreement.

          10. American Jobs Creation Act. It is intended that this Agreement comply with the
provisions of Section 409A of the Code. The Agreement will be administered in a manner that is
intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code. Any provisions in this Agreement or in the Plan
that would cause the Agreement to fail to satisfy Section 409A of the Code shall have no force and
effect until amended to comply with Section 409A of the Code (which amendment may be retroactive to
the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code and may be made by the Company without the consent
of the Grantee). The Company is authorized to adopt rules or regulations deemed necessary or
appropriate in connection therewith to anticipate and/or comply with the requirements thereof.

          11. Interpretation. Any reference in this Agreement to Section 409A of the Code will
also include any proposed, temporary or final regulations, or any other guidance, promulgated with
respect to such Section by the U.S. Department of Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service.

          12. No Employment Rights. This award will not confer upon the Grantee any right with
respect to continuance of employment by the Company.

          13. Severability. In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Agreement
shall be invalidated for any reason by a court of competent jurisdiction, any provision so
invalidated shall be deemed to be separable from the other provisions hereof, and the remaining
provisions hereof shall continue to be valid and fully enforceable.

          14. Subject to Plan. This award is subject to the terms of the Plan, and the Grantee
is being delivered a copy of the Plan with this Agreement. To the extent any provision of this
Agreement violates or is inconsistent with an express provisions of the Plan, the Plan provision
will govern and any inconsistent provision in this Agreement will have no force or effect.

          15. Taxes. No later than the date as of which an amount first becomes includable in
the gross income of the Grantee for federal income tax purposes with respect to the Award or the
issuance of Award Shares pursuant to the Award, the Grantee shall pay to the Company, or make
arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding the payment of, any federal, state or local
taxes or other items of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to that amount.
Subject to the following sentence, unless otherwise determined by the

 

 

Committee, withholding obligations may be settled with Award Shares. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any election by a Grantee subject to Section 16 of the Securities Act of 1934, as
amended, to settle any tax withholding obligation with Award Shares shall be subject to approval by
the Committee in its sole discretion. The obligations of the Company with respect to the Award
shall be conditional on those payments or arrangements and the Company shall, to the extent
permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise
payable to the Grantee.

          16. Governing Law. The laws of the State of Ohio will govern this award and all
matters related hereto. If either party institutes a suit or other legal proceedings, whether in
law or equity, the Company and the Grantee hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of the
Common Pleas Court of the State of Ohio (Cuyahoga County) or the United States District Court for
the Northern District of Ohio.

          17. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of
which will be an original but all of which together will represent one and the same agreement.

          18. Amendments/Entire Agreement. Any amendment to the Plan will be deemed to be an
amendment to this Agreement. Except as provided in this Agreement, no amendment will reduce the
FFO Outperformance Amount or adversely affect the number or value of the Grantee’s Award Shares or
the Grantee’s rights with respect to vesting without the Grantee’s written consent. This Agreement
cannot be changed or terminated orally. The Agreement and the Plan contain the entire agreement
between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof.

sufficiently made if (a) sent by (i) registered or certified mail, (ii) a nationally recognized
courier service or (iii) facsimile, and (b) addressed (x) to the Grantee at his or her address as

          “Share Price” shall mean the greater of (i) the average closing price of a Common
Share as reported on the New York Stock Exchange over the 20 trading days ending on the Valuation
Date and (ii) the closing price of a Common Share as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the
trading day immediately preceding the Valuation Date.

          “Total Return to Shareholders” shall mean the total annual return to the holders of
Common Shares during the Measurement Period. Total Return to Shareholders shall be

 

 

measured by assuming a hypothetical investment of $100 in Common Shares on the first day of the
Measurement Period (the “Initial Investment”) and calculating the value of such investment as of
the Valuation Date, assuming all dividends paid on the Common Shares are reinvested into additional
Common Shares (the “Total Return”). The difference between the Total Return and the Initial
Investment will be divided by the Initial Investment and the resulting number further divided by
the number of years in the Measurement Period to determine the Annualized Total Shareholder Return.
For example, if the Total Return is $170 and the Measurement Period ends on the Measurement Date,
the Annualized Total Shareholder Return is:

(170-100)/100=70%

                70/5=14%

          “TRS Metrics” shall mean the performance criteria designated as such set forth on
Schedule A attached hereto.

          “TRS Shares” shall mean (i) if both of the TRS Metrics are achieved by the Company,
12,850 Common Shares, (ii) if one of the TRS Metrics is achieved by the Company, 8,000 Common
Shares, and (iii) if none of the TRS Metrics is achieved by the Company, no Common Shares;
provided, however, that if the number of TRS Shares shall be determined pursuant to clause (i) and
the value, calculated as of the Valuation Date, of the Common Shares to be awarded shall be greater
than $1,028,000, then the number of such Common Shares shall be equal to $1,028,000 divided by the
Share Price with fractional Common Shares rounded up to the nearest whole number of Common Shares;
and provided further, that if the number of TRS Shares shall be determined pursuant to clause (ii)
and the value, calculated as of the Valuation Date, of the Common Shares to be awarded shall be
greater than $640,000, then the number of such Common Shares shall be equal to $640,000 divided by
the Share Price with fractional Common Shares rounded up to the nearest whole number of Common
Shares.

          “Valuation Date” shall mean, with respect to the Grantee, the earlier of (i) the
Measurement Date and (ii) the date on which a Change in Control occurs.

          “Vesting Date” shall mean (i) if the Valuation Date shall be the Measurement Date,
March 1, 2010, and (ii) if the Valuation Date shall be the date on which a Change in Control
occurs, the Valuation Date.

          4. Award Grant. The Grantee is hereby granted an Award consisting of a number of
Common Shares, calculated and valued as of the Valuation Date, equal to the sum of (i) the FFO
Award Value divided by the Share Price with fractional Common Shares rounded up to the nearest
whole number of Common Shares and (ii) the number of TRS Shares; provided, however, that if during
the Measurement Period the Grantee shall die or become Disabled, or the employment of the Grantee
shall be terminated by the Company without Cause, then the Award shall consist of a number of
Common Shares, calculated and valued as of the Valuation Date, equal to the product of (a) the sum
of (i) the FFO Award Value divided by the Share Price with fractional Common Shares rounded up to
the nearest whole number of Common Shares plus (ii) the number of TRS Shares, multiplied by (b) a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days in the Measurement Period occurring
before the date of such death, Disability or

 

 

termination of employment without Cause and the denominator of which shall equal the total number
of days in the Measurement Period.

          5. Vesting. The Award shall vest on the Vesting Date, provided that the Grantee
remains in continuous employment with the Company through the Vesting Date other than by reason of
death, Disability or termination of employment without Cause.

          6. Effect of Certain Events During the Measurement Period. In the event the Grantee’s
employment with the Company is terminated for Cause during the Measurement Period or in the event
the Grantee voluntarily terminates his or her employment with the Company for any reason during the
Measurement Period, the Grantee will immediately forfeit the Award, and any rights the Grantee had
in Award Shares will terminate without further action.

          7. Transferability. This Agreement, the Award and the Award Shares will not be
assignable or transferable by the Grantee; provided, however, that no provision in
this Agreement will prevent the transfer of the Award or the Award Shares underlying such awards by
will or the laws of descent and distribution in the event of the death of the Grantee.

          8. Payment.

          (a) The Company will issue to the Grantee (or to the estate, guardian or beneficiary of the
Grantee, as the case may be) the Award Shares underlying the Award or the Equivalent Amount of
Cash, at the Company’s option, as soon as reasonably practicable following the Vesting Date.

          (b) Except to the extent provided by Section 409A of the Code and permitted by the Company, no
Common Shares may be issued to the Grantee at a time earlier than otherwise expressly provided in
this Agreement.

          (c) The Company’s obligations to the Grantee with respect to the Award will be satisfied in
full upon the issuance of the Award Shares or the Equivalent Amount of Cash corresponding to the
Award.

          9. Shareholder Rights and Restrictions.

          (a) The Grantee shall have no rights as a shareholder of the Company (including, without
limitation, the right to receive dividends or voting rights) with respect to the Award or the Award
Shares until the date on which a stock certificate (or certificates) representing Award Shares
shall be issued.

          (b) The obligations of the Company under this Agreement will be merely that of an unfunded and
unsecured promise of the Company to deliver Award Shares (or cash) in the future, and the rights of
the Grantee will be no greater than that of an unsecured general creditor. No assets of the
Company will be held or set aside as security for the obligations of the Company under this
Agreement.

 

 

          10. American Jobs Creation Act. It is intended that this Agreement comply with the
provisions of Section 409A of the Code. The Agreement will be administered in a manner that is
intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code. Any provisions in this Agreement or in the Plan
that would cause the Agreement to fail to satisfy Section 409A of the Code shall have no force and
effect until amended to comply with Section 409A of the Code (which amendment may be retroactive to
the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code and may be made by the Company without the consent
of the Grantee). The Company is authorized to adopt rules or regulations deemed necessary or
appropriate in connection therewith to anticipate and/or comply with the requirements thereof.

          11. Interpretation. Any reference in this Agreement to Section 409A of the Code will
also include any proposed, temporary or final regulations, or any other guidance, promulgated with
respect to such Section by the U.S. Department of Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service.

          12. No Employment Rights. This award will not confer upon the Grantee any right with
respect to continuance of employment by the Company.

          13. Severability. In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Agreement
shall be invalidated for any reason by a court of competent jurisdiction, any provision so
invalidated shall be deemed to be separable from the other provisions hereof, and the remaining
provisions hereof shall continue to be valid and fully enforceable.

          14. Subject to Plan. This award is subject to the terms of the Plan, and the Grantee
is being delivered a copy of the Plan with this Agreement. To the extent any provision of this
Agreement violates or is inconsistent with an express provisions of the Plan, the Plan provision
will govern and any inconsistent provision in this Agreement will have no force or effect.

          15. Taxes. No later than the date as of which an amount first becomes includable in
the gross income of the Grantee for federal income tax purposes with respect to the Award or the
issuance of Award Shares pursuant to the Award, the Grantee shall pay to the Company, or make
arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding the payment of, any federal, state or local
taxes or other items of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to that amount.
Subject to the following sentence, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, withholding
obligations may be settled with Award Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any election by a
Grantee subject to Section 16 of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, to settle any tax
withholding obligation with Award Shares shall be subject to approval by the Committee in its sole
discretion. The obligations of the Company with respect to the Award shall be conditional on those
payments or arrangements and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to
deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise payable to the Grantee.

          16. Governing Law. The laws of the State of Ohio will govern this award and all
matters related hereto. If either party institutes a suit or other legal proceedings, whether in
law or equity, the Company and the Grantee hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of the

 

 

Common Pleas Court of the State of Ohio (Cuyahoga County) or the United States District Court for
the Northern District of Ohio.

          17. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of
which will be an original but all of which together will represent one and the same agreement.

          18. Amendments/Entire Agreement. Any amendment to the Plan will be deemed to be an
amendment to this Agreement. Except as provided in this Agreement, no amendment will reduce the
FFO Outperformance Amount or adversely affect the number or value of the Grantee’s Award Shares or
the Grantee’s rights with respect to vesting without the Grantee’s written consent. This Agreement
cannot be changed or terminated orally. The Agreement and the Plan contain the entire agreement
between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof.

          19. Notices. Notices, required or permitted to be made under this Agreement shall be
sufficiently made if (a) sent by (i) registered or certified mail, (ii) a nationally recognized
courier service or (iii) facsimile, and (b) addressed (x) to the Grantee at his or her address as
