PERFORMANCE RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

PURSUANT TO THE OMEGA HEALTHCARE INVESTORS, INC.

2004 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

1.             Payment for Vested Restricted Units.  The Company shall issue in book entry form in the name of the Recipient, or issue and deliver to the Recipient a share certificate representing, the Vested Shares on the Distribution Date of Vested Shares.

2.             Dividends Equivalents.  The Company shall pay Dividend Equivalents attributable to Vested Restricted Units on the Distribution Date of Dividend Equivalents, subject to required tax withholding.

3.             Tax Withholding.

(a)           The Recipient must deliver to the Company, within ten (10) days after written notification from the Company as to the amount of the tax withholding that is due, either (i) cash, or (ii) a check payable to the Company, in the amount of all tax withholding obligations imposed on the Company as a result of the issuance of the Vested Shares, except as provided in Section 3(b).  If the Recipient does not timely satisfy payment of the tax withholding obligation, the Recipient will be deemed to have made an election to satisfy tax withholding in the manner provided in Section 3(b).

(b)           In lieu of paying the tax withholding obligation described in Section 3(a), the Recipient may elect to have the number of Vested Shares reduced by the number of whole shares of Common Stock which, when multiplied by the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Distribution Date of the Vested Shares, together with cash or a check in lieu of any fractional Vested Share, is sufficient to satisfy the minimum amount of the required tax obligations imposed on the Company as a result of the issuance of the Vested Shares (the “Withholding Election”).  The Recipient may make a Withholding Election only if all of the following conditions are met:

(i)            The Withholding Election must be made within ten (10) days after the Recipient receives written notification from the Company as to the amount of the tax withholding that is due (the “Tax Notice Date”), by executing and delivering to the Company a properly completed Notice of Withholding Election, in substantially the form of Exhibit 2 attached hereto; and

 

(ii)           Any Withholding Election made will be irrevocable; however, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, disapprove and give no effect to any Withholding Election, by giving written notice to the Recipient no later than ten (10) days after the Company’s receipt of the Notice of Withholding Election, in which event the Recipient must deliver to the Company, within ten (10) days after receiving such notice, the amount of the tax withholding pursuant to Section 3(a).  If the Recipient does not timely deliver the amount of the tax withholding, the Recipient will forfeit the Vested Shares.

 

  

  

  

 

4.             Restrictions on Transfer.  Except for the transfer by bequest or inheritance, the Recipient shall not have the right to make or permit to exist any transfer or hypothecation, whether outright or as security, with or without consideration, voluntary or involuntary, of all or any part of any right, title or interest in or to this Award.  Any such disposition not made in accordance with this Agreement shall be deemed null and void.  Any permitted transferee under this Section shall be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

5.             Change in Capitalization.

(a)           The number and kind of shares issuable under this Agreement shall be proportionately adjusted for any non-reciprocal transaction between the Company and the holders of capital stock of the Company that causes the per share value of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Award to change, such as a stock dividend, stock split, spinoff, rights offering, or recapitalization through a large, non-recurring cash dividend (each, an “Equity Restructuring”).  No fractional shares shall be issued in making such adjustment.

(b)           In the event of a merger, consolidation, reorganization, extraordinary dividend, sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets, other material change in the capital structure of the Company, or a tender offer for shares of Common Stock, in each case that does not constitute an Equity Restructuring, the Committee shall take such action to make such adjustments with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder or the terms of this Agreement as the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines in good faith is necessary or appropriate, including, without limitation, adjusting the number and class of securities subject to the Award, substituting cash, other securities, or other property to replace the Award, or removing of restrictions.

(c)           All determinations and adjustments made by the Committee pursuant to this Section will be final and binding on the Recipient. Any action taken by the Committee need not treat all recipients of awards under the Plan equally.

(d)           The existence of the Plan and the Restricted Unit Grant shall not affect the right or power of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, reclassification, reorganization or other change in its capital or business structure, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of debt or equity securities having preferences or priorities as to the Common Stock or the rights thereof, the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, any sale or transfer of all or part of its business or assets, or any other corporate act or proceeding.

6.             Governing Laws.  This Award shall be construed, administered and enforced according to the laws of the State of Maryland; provided, however, no Vested Shares shall be issued except, in the reasonable judgment of the Committee, in compliance with exemptions under applicable state securities laws of the state in which Recipient resides, and/or any other applicable securities laws.

12.           No Right to Continued Retention.  Neither the establishment of the Plan nor the Award hereunder shall be construed as giving Recipient the right to continued service with the Company or an Affiliate.

WHEREAS, the Officer is entitled to an annual cash bonus based on the Company’s 2012 performance (the “Bonus”);

WHEREAS, the amount of the Bonus is based (i) 40% on Adjusted Funds from Operations (“AFFO”) per share, (ii) 20% on tenant quality, (iii) 20% on leverage being achieved at pre-determined levels for the Company for 2012 and (iv) 20% on subjective factors (collectively, the “Bonus Metrics”) with the amount of bonus eligible to be earned being based on the level of achievement of each of the Bonus Metrics as previously established by the Compensation Committee for each of the participants in the Company’s bonus program, all pursuant to the formula shown on Exhibit A to this Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company has determined the amount of the Officer’s Bonus based on the data shown on Exhibit B to this Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee has approved payment in 2012 of the amount of the Bonus as determined pursuant to Exhibit B on or about December 31, 2012 and prior to the completion of the Company’s audited financial statements for 2012 (the “2012 Audited Financial Statements”), subject to (i) certification by the Compensation Committee on December 31, 2012 that the AFFO per share performance goal has been achieved and (ii) the Officer entering into this Agreement;

WHEREAS, it is possible that the Company’s 2012 Audited Financial Statements, when completed, will indicate that the Company’s 2012 AFFO per share, tenant quality or leverage are different than the amount shown on Exhibit B, and therefore the portion of the Bonus that was calculated based on such factor will have been overpaid or underpaid; and

WHEREAS, it is the Company’s and the Officer’s desire that (i) the Officer repay the excess, if any, of the gross amount of the Bonus determined and paid pursuant to Exhibit B over the gross amount of the Bonus determined by the Compensation Committee to have been payable pursuant to the formula in Exhibit A after completion of the 2012 Audited Financial Statements (the “Excess Bonus Amount”), or (ii) the Company pay the Officer the shortfall, if any, of the Bonus determined and paid pursuant to Exhibit B as compared to the Bonus determined by the Compensation Committee to be payable pursuant to the formula in Exhibit A after completion of the 2012 Audited Financial Statements (the “Shortfall Bonus Amount”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Officer agree as follows:

1.             Bonus.  On or about December 31, 2012, the Company shall pay to the Officer a Bonus equal to the amount shown on Exhibit B, subject to tax and payroll withholdings, determined based on data set forth on Exhibit B, subject to certification by the Compensation Committee on December 31, 2012 that the AFFO per share performance goal has been achieved at a specified level.

 

  

  

  

 

2.             Recovery of Excess Bonus Amount.  If the Compensation Committee determines that the amount of the Bonus calculated pursuant to the formula in Exhibit A after completion of the 2012 Audited Financial Statements is lower than the amount determined pursuant to Exhibit B, the Officer will return such Excess Bonus Amount to the Company in 2013 within five (5) business days of the Company’s request or the Company may deduct the Excess Bonus Amount from any and all other compensation then or subsequently owed to the Officer.

3.             Payment of Shortfall Bonus Amount.  If the Compensation Committee determines that the amount of the Bonus calculated pursuant to the formula in Exhibit A after completion of the 2012 Audited Financial Statements is higher than the amount determined pursuant to Exhibit B, The Company will pay such Shortfall Bonus Amount to the Officer in 2013 within five (5) business days of the date of the Compensation Committee’s determination.

4.             Governing Laws.  This Agreement shall be construed, administered and enforced according to the laws of the State of Maryland.

5.             Notice.  Except as otherwise specified herein, all notices and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given if personally delivered or if sent by registered or certified United States mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the proposed party at the last known address of the party.

Threshold = 100% of annual base salary

Target = 125% of annual base salary

High = 150% of annual base salary
