Exhibit | Description |
10.1 | 2014 Executive Incentive Plan, dated February 24, 2014 |
• | This Plan shall be administered by the Trust’s Compensation Committee, which shall be authorized to interpret this Plan, to make, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to this Plan, to make awards under this Plan, and to make all other determinations under this Plan necessary or advisable for its administration. The Compensation Committee may at its discretion reduce the payments that would otherwise be made under this Plan. |
• | The performance targets shall be established by the Compensation Committee based on the Trust’s approved 2014 budget. Under the Compensation Committee’s Charter, it has the discretion to exclude from the calculation of annual incentive goals, any non-recurring special charges and amounts. Such special charges could generally include items such as significant litigation and settlement costs; restructuring charges; changes in accounting policies; acquisition and divestiture impacts; and material unbudgeted expenses incurred by or at the direction of the Board. To that end, the Committee may consider any strategic decision or change in the budget made throughout the course of 2014 that can have a material impact on operating FFO per share, either positive or negative, that was not accounted for in the budget setting process at the beginning of the year. In particular, the maximum ratio of Debt to EBITDA shall be subject to adjustment by the Compensation Committee in the event of material, unbudgeted capital expenditures (such as acquisitions or development projects) that are approved by the Board of Trustees during 2014. |
• | All determinations, interpretations and constructions made by the Compensation Committee shall be final and conclusive. |
• | Rights under this Plan may not be transferred, assigned or pledged. |
• | Nothing in this Plan confers on any participant any right to continued employment and this Plan does not interfere with the Trust’s right to terminate an employee’s employment. |
• | A participant must be a full-time employee in good standing at the date of payment of the award in or around February 2015 in order to receive any payment under the Plan. No payment will be made to any person who leaves the full-time employ of the Trust before such date. |
