			SOP #               Revision:              

				Prepared by:                     
	Effective Date:                               	Approved by:                     

 

	Title: 	GYRODYNE, LLC TRAVEL AND ENTERTAINMENT
	 	 
	
			Policy: 

				
			Travel and entertainment expenses are to be within established Company guidelines and will be reimbursed with proper documentation. Employees are expected to spend the Company’s money as carefully and judiciously as they would their own.

			
	 	 
	 	
			The Company recognizes that employees who travel far from home to represent the Company's business interests must forego their living accommodations and may forfeit personal time. Accordingly, the Company will make efforts to provide comfortable and secure accommodations for lodging, meals and travel for employees. However, these items are not intended to be perquisites and the Company reserves the right to deny reimbursement of expenses that are considered lavish or extravagant.

			

 

	
			Purpose:

				
			To provide guidelines for travel and entertainment expenses before expenses are incurred, account for all advances promptly and accurately and to communicate the procedures for reimbursement. 

			

 

	
			Scope:

				
			This procedure applies to all departments and individuals who travel or entertain for the Company.

			

 

Responsibilities:

 

	 	
			The Accounting Department will receive and review the expense report documentation and process necessary employee reimbursement.

			

 

Procedure:

 

	1.0 	TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS
	 	 
	
			1.1

				
			All arrangements required for business travel should be made at least 15 days in advance, unless an emergency trip is required, to achieve the lower rates on airline, hotel and car rentals versus last minute premium rates. 

			

 

	
			1.2

				
			Direct Billings - Direct billings include the utilization of a credit card that is billable to the Company. Direct billings should be restricted to charges for product or services directly connected to the Companies operations which include among other items the following:

			

 

	 	
			●

				
			Purchase of fixtures or other improvements for the Companies real estate.

			

 

	 	
			●

				
			Purchase of services in support of the Companies real estate or operation.

			

 

 

 

 

	 	
			●

				
			Purchase of office equipment with prior approval only.

			

 

 

 

Direct billings from airlines, hotels, restaurants, etc. that meet the Travel and Entertainment guidelines within this policy document are permitted to be charged to the Corporate credit card. 

 

	2.0	EXPENSE GUIDELINES
	 	 
	
			2.1

				
			Air Travel – Airline reservations should be based on the following criteria:

			

 

	 	
			●

				
			Expediency: Getting the employee to their destination in an expedient way. (Direct flights when possible or connecting flights if necessary for faster flight schedules).

			

 

	 	
			●

				
			Cost: Employees will fly coach class unless extenuating circumstances apply. Fees for mileage boosters will not be reimbursed unless part of a pre-board seat assignment fee.

			

 

	 	
			●

				
			Air Carrier: An employee's preferred airline can be utilized as long as expediency and cost factors are equal. 

			

 

If an employee is accompanied by a non-employee such as family or a friend, and therefore requires additional airfare, the employee will be responsible for payment of any separate airfare, except where a spouse or friend is reasonably expected to attend an event or function for business reasons.

 

	
			2.2

				
			Lodging - The lodging arrangements should be based on value, convenience for the traveler and according to what are usual and customary Company guidelines.

			

 

If an employee is accompanied by a non-employee such as family or a friend, and therefore requires separate accommodations, the employee will be responsible for payment of any excess lodging accommodations.

 

	
			2.3

				
			Meals - Employees will generally be responsible for obtaining their own meals while traveling. Meals do not include entertaining guests, which should be itemized as entertainment expenses.

			

 

Meals and miscellaneous sundry items will be reimbursed according to the lesser of actual expenses or $57 (There is no per diem allowance. Receipts must be submitted) (maximum IRS rate or $68 in 2017 if staying in a high cost IRS defined locality (i.e., NYC but not Long Island or Westchester) per day. 

 

Occasionally, an employee may be traveling to a location with a higher than normal cost of living (ie NYC but not Long Island or Westchester). For these locations, including any approved foreign travel, an employee can request an increase in the daily per diem rate to $68 (the maximum rate IRS defined rate for 2017), but should have it substantiated and authorized prior to departure.

 

 

 

 

	
			2.4

				
			Car Rentals - Advance arrangements should be made if a car is required at the destination. Vehicle selection will be based upon the most cost-effective class that satisfies requirements for the employee(s) and any demonstration/other equipment.

			

 

Supplemental auto insurance coverage offered by car rental agencies is to be declined as Liability and Collision coverage is provided by the Company's insurance policy.

 

	
			2.5

				
			Personal Vehicles - An employee required to use their own automobile for business will be reimbursed at the prevailing rate per tax guidelines for per-mile deductions ($.535 per mile in 2017). The employee must provide on the expense report, documentation including dates, miles traveled and purpose of each trip.

			

 

The Company assumes no responsibility for personal automobiles used for business. Further, any parking or speeding violation is the sole responsibility of the employee. Please also refer to the Company Policy precluding use of cell phones or other devices if driving on Company business.

 

	
			2.6

				
			Telephone - Business-related telephone charges on an itemized lodging receipt and/or telephone charge card should be itemized under telephone expense. 

			

 

If an employee is out-of-town on business for several days, the employee may make personal telephone calls home, as long as the charges and length of call are reasonable.

 

Use of Company provided cell phones is encouraged to avoid unnecessary charges.

 

	
			2.7

				
			Entertainment - In order for entertainment to be a valid deductible entertainment expenses it must be an ordinary and necessary expense directly related or associated with the active conduct of business. For tax purposes, it is very important to properly document entertainment expenses and substantiate the following elements:

			

 

	 	
			●

				
			The date.

			

	 	
			●

				
			The place (name and location).

			

	 	
			●

				
			Description or type of entertainment.

			

	 	
			●

				
			The business purpose and the nature of the business benefit expected to be gained by the Company. Expenses in excess of $75 per person should be further substantiated with a memorandum summarizing the discussion unless at least two officers and or a director are present.

			

	 	
			●

				
			The business relationship to the Company of the persons entertained (name, occupation, title, etc.).

			

 

	
			2.8

				
			Miscellaneous Expenses - Any additional business expenses that are not categorized above should be listed under miscellaneous expenses and documented with all pertinent information to substantiate the expense.

			

 

 

 

 

	2.9 	Non-Reimbursable Expenses - Some expenses are not considered valid business expenses by the Company, yet may be incurred for the convenience of the traveling individual. Since these are not expenses for the business then they are not reimbursable. The following Examples can be used as a guide of expenses, which are not reimbursable: 

 

	 	
			●

				
			Airline or travel insurance.

			

 

	 	
			●

				
			Airline or travel lounge clubs.

			

 

	 	
			●

				
			Shoe shine or dry-cleaning (except for extended travel beyond 5 days).

Amendment No. 2 to Retention Bonus Plan

 

AMENDMENT NUMBER 2 

TO THE

GYRODYNE LLC RETENTION BONUS PLAN

 

 

WHEREAS, Gyrodyne Company of America, Inc. (“Gyrodyne Company”) established the Gyrodyne Company of America, Inc. Retention Bonus Plan (the “Retention Bonus Plan” or the “Plan”), effective as of May 30, 2014, the date it was approved by the Board of Directors of Gyrodyne Company (the “Board”); and

 

WHEREAS, Gyrodyne LLC (“Gyrodyne”),is the surviving entity in the merger of Gyrodyne Company of America, Inc. (the “Corporation”) and Gyrodyne Special Distribution, LLC (“GSD”) with and into Gyrodyne, LLC (the “Merger”), effective August 31, 2015; and

 

WHEREAS, the Retention Bonus Plan was amended and restated by Gyrodyne effective as of May 24, 2016; and 

 

WHEREAS, Amendment Number 1 to the Plan was executed to provide that land development costs incurred on a property since the date of the appraisal designated therein shall be added to the appraised value for the property in calculating appreciation (gross sales price minus appraised value) for the purpose of determining the Bonus Pool; and

 

WHEREAS, Amendment Number 1 to the Plan also provided that each of the ten buildings in the Port Jefferson Professional Park shall be treated as a “property”, so that a Participant’s right to bonus payment on the sale of a Port Jefferson building shall vest on, and payments to the Bonus Pool may be made shortly following the closing of the sale of that building; and 

 

WHEREAS, no Participants in the Plan, including active employees and members of the Board of Directors (the “Board”), are currently vested in any benefits under the Plan; and

 

WHEREAS, Gyrodyne wishes each of the post subdivision lots at Flowerfield and Cortlandt Manor to be treated as a “property” so that a Participant’s right to a bonus payment on the sale of a lot shall vest on, and payments to the Bonus Pool may be made shortly following the closing of the sale of such lots; and

 

WHEREAS, Gyrodyne wishes to provide that Board members and employees shall be eligible to receive payments under the Plan in the event of a separation from service as a result of death, Disability and any involuntary separations from service without “Cause”; and 

 

WHEREAS, all changes are deemed to be appropriate to encourage Participants to remain employed or to continue to serve as Board members through the date of the sale of various properties; and

 

 

 

 

WHEREAS, employee Participants shall not receive any benefits in the event of a termination for Cause or a voluntary separation from service other than Disability or resignation following a substantial reduction in compensation or conversion from full time to part time status, thereby retaining a “substantial risk of forfeiture”, as defined under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) for employee Participants; and

 

WHEREAS, Board members shall not receive any benefits in the event of a termination for Cause or a voluntary separation from service from the Board other than Disability or resignation following a substantial reduction in director fees, thereby retaining a “substantial risk of forfeiture”, as defined under Section 409A of the Code for Board member Participants; and

 

WHEREAS, Gyrodyne wishes to also require a specific Internal Rate of Return (“IRR”) on the sale of any properties following a separation from service, and to require such sales to occur within 3 years following a separation from service to receive any future payments, to help preserve the exemption from Code Section 409A for the Plan; and

 

WHEREAS, Gyrodyne also wishes to clarify certain expenses that shall be included in all development costs, as provided for in the Plan; and

 

WHEREAS, Gyrodyne retains the authority, under Section 9.5 of the Plan, to periodically amend the Plan.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, effective as of February 1, 2018, the Plan shall be amended as follows:

 

	
			1.

				
			Definitions. The following terms shall have the following meanings or amended meanings: 

			

 

	 	
			a.

				
			Section 2.1, “Adjusted Appraised Value” of a Property shall include the following new sentence:

			

 

“For purposes of clarity, the term “land development and other costs” shall include the following: Costs (excluding all indirect costs) incurred by third parties for the pursuit of entitlements on the Flowerfield and Cortlandt Manor properties, respectfully. These costs include and are limited to, the acquisition of property, architectural, engineering and related entitlement costs inclusive of consulting costs incurred to prepare and file the subdivision or site application to the respective towns (excluding any joint venture or other transaction related costs or costs not absorbed by Gyrodyne), costs to pursue the opening of the LIRR gate crossing separating the Flowerfield and Stony Brook University property, construction costs and other related soft costs and legal fees in pursuit of such entitlements. Costs exclude capitalized real estate taxes and other costs related to holding but not developing the subject real estate.”

 

	 	
			b.

				
			Section 2.21, “Cause” means conduct by a Participant reasonably likely to cause material harm to Gyrodyne that consists of: 

			

 

 

 

 

	 	
			(i)

				
			The conviction of any felony, or the entry by a Participant of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere with respect to the foregoing;

			

 

	 	
			(ii)

				
			The commission of any act or failure to act that involves gross negligence, moral turpitude, dishonesty, theft, destruction of property, fraud, embezzlement, willful misconduct or unethical business conduct, or that is otherwise materially harmful to Gyrodyne’s business interests or reputation;

			

 

	 	
			(iii)

				
			Any material violation of any written rule or policy of Gyrodyne that is harmful to Gyrodyne’s business interests or reputation;

			

 

	 	
			(iv)

				
			Any refusal, or repeated failure to substantially perform any duties and obligations as an employee or a Board member (other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness or injury) over a period of not less than 30 days after a demand for substantial performance is delivered by Gyrodyne;

			

 

	 	
			(v)

				
			Any willful failure to abide by any lawful directive of the Board or its duly appointed designee.

			

 

	 	
			c.

				
			Section 2.22, “Disability” means a Participant is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment, which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, as determined by an independent third party physician, selected within the discretion of the Committee. The determination of whether a Participant is disabled shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, but subject to the provisions of Section 409A. 

			

 

	 	
			d.

				
			Section 2.23, “Internal Rate of Return” means an amount limited to 4% of the Adjusted Appraised Value plus any incurred land development and other costs. 

			

 

2.            Vesting. Article IV, Vesting, shall be amended to add the following new paragraph:

 

“In the event of death or Disability of an employee or a Board member, a voluntary termination following a substantial reduction in compensation or Board fees (deemed to be an involuntary termination), or a mutually agreed separation from the Board to “right size” the Board, or in the event of an involuntary termination without Cause, such Participants shall be entitled to a future benefit to be paid in accordance with the provisions of Plan only if the following requirements are satisfied:

 

	 	
			a.

				
			A property is sold within a period of 3 years following the date of a Participant’s separation from service with Gyrodyne or the Board for any of the above reasons; and

			

 

 

 

 

	 	
			b.

				
			The property is sold with an Internal Rate of Return (“IRR”) equal to at least 4% of the value of the property as determined under the annual appraisals obtained effective as of each December 31 (the “Valuation Date”), and measured from the earlier of the December 31 Valuation Date preceding the date of death, or Disability, or the Participant’s separation from service or separation from the Board.

			

 

	
			3.

				
			Reduction in Benefits After Vesting. To the extent that a Participant is vested in their benefits following a separation from service, the amount to be paid to a Participant shall be reduced by a fraction measured from June 1, 2014 when the Plan was established, whereby the numerator is the number of full months measured from June 1, 2014 when the Plan was established, until the date of termination; and the denominator is the number of full months measured from June 1, 2014, the date of establishment of the Plan, until the date the property is sold. The effect of this fraction shall be to compensate a Participant for the full value of the property sold, but to reduce the benefit by the period of time during which a Participant is not employed or a Board member. This reduction is clarified in the attached Exhibit C. (Exh-C-Ret-Bon-Plan) The above reductions shall occur regardless of the reason for any separation from service. 

			

 

	
			4.

				
			Revised Exhibit B. Members of the Board already have a “specific percentage” of the Retention Bonus Pool allocated to each Director on an individual basis. Attached is a revised Exhibit B providing for specific employee bonus percentages that shall apply for any sales on or after February 1, 2018, subject to the provisions of the Plan and this Amendment. (Exh-B-Ret-Bon-Plan-rev)

			

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment Number 2 to the Gyrodyne LLC Retention Bonus Plan is executed the 30th day of January, 2018.
