Earned Applicable Performance Units. Subject to the Participant’s continued employment or other service with the Company or its Subsidiaries at each Date of Determination set forth below, the Performance Units shall become earned as and when provided in this Section 4.1(a) based upon the Company’s Market Capitalization (as defined below) at each Date of Determination (“Earned Applicable Performance Units”) in accordance with the following tables:
Earned Units. In the event of a Change in Control that occurs prior to the third anniversary of the Grant Date, subject to the Participant’s continued Service as of immediately prior to the Change in Control:
Earned Units. Except as specifically provided in Section 3, the number of Units subject to this Award that the Participant will be deemed to have earned (“Earned Units”) and that are eligible for vesting as of the Vesting Date will be determined by the extent to which the Company has satisfied the performance-based objectives for the Performance Period ending on the Determination Date as set forth in [Appendix A] to this Agreement, but subject to any adjustment as described in [Appendix A]. The portion of the Units subject to this Award that will be deemed Earned Units as of the Vesting Date during the Vesting Period will be determined according to the formula specified in [Appendix A] (subject to any adjustment described therein), but in no event will the cumulative number of Units that are deemed Earned Units exceed the Maximum Number of Units. Any Units that are not earned and do not vest as of the Vesting Date will be forfeited. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may reduce the number of Earned Units that would otherwise be deemed vested as of the Vesting Date in recognition of such performance or other factors that the Committee deems relevant.
Vesting Dates for Earned Applicable Performance Units. Subject to the Participant’s continued employment or other service with the Company or its Subsidiaries on the Applicable Performance Units Vesting Date (as defined herein), all Earned Applicable Performance Units will become Vested Units on the first to occur of the following (each the “Applicable Performance Units Vesting Date”) # the third anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date, # a Change in Control, or # the occurrence of any other event specified in Section 3(b)(ii), (iii) or (iv) of the Employment Agreement by and between the Company and the Participant dated August 3, 2021 (the “Employment Agreement”).
Earned Performance-Based LTIP Units. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Award, the number of earned Performance-Based LTIP Units shall be calculated by reference to the respective Performance Percentage for each of the SNL US REIT Retail Shopping Center Index and the SNL US REIT Retail Index, as follows:
Form and Timing of Payment of Performance Units and Performance Shares. Payment of earned Performance Units and Performance Shares shall be made after the expiration of the applicable Performance Period at the time determined by the Administrator. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may pay earned Performance Units and Performance Shares in the form of cash, in Shares (which have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the value of the earned Performance Units or Performance Shares, as applicable, at the close of the applicable Performance Period) or in a combination of cash and Shares.
Earned Restricted Stock Units. The number of Restricted Stock Units earned shall be the product of the Target Number multiplied by the Milestone Metrics Earned Percentage (the “Earned Restricted Stock Units”). To the extent that the Restricted Stock Units do not become Earned Restricted Stock Units pursuant to this Section 3, such Restricted Stock Units shall be automatically forfeited.
If the Company’s Total Shareholder Return is exactly equal to an Annual Total Shareholder Return Percent, then the number of Earned Performance Units shall equal the applicable Earned PSU % multiplied by the Target Number of Performance Units.
*The actual number of Performance Stock Units earned and vested will be based on the actual performance level achieved at or between each performance level and will be interpolated on a straight line basis for pro-rata achievement of the Performance Goals; provided that if the actual performance level achieved does not meet threshold performance level for the applicable Performance Goal, then no Performance Stock Units will be earned and vested for that Performance Goal pursuant to this Agreement. The actual number of Performance Stock Units earned and vested will be determined by the Committee based on the actual performance level achieved with respect to the applicable Performance Goals.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the Participant’s continued employment or other service with the Company or its Subsidiaries through such Change in Control, upon a Change in Control 100% of the Performance Units (whether or not previously earned) will be deemed Earned Applicable Performance Units.
