Employment Relationship. Employment with the Company is for no specific period of time. Your employment with the Company will be “at will,” meaning that either you or the Company may terminate your employment at any time and for any reason, with or without cause. Any contrary representations that may have been made to you are superseded by this letter agreement. Although your job duties, title, reporting relationship, compensation and benefits, as well as the Company’s personnel policies and procedures, may change from time to time, the “at will” nature of your employment may only be changed in an express written agreement signed by you and a duly authorized officer of the Company (other than you).

Under this Agreement and as of the Effective Date, Cryan will become an employee of the Company, and any compensation paid to Cryan will be treated in the same manner as compensation paid to other Company employees, including but not limited to the withholding of appropriate federal, state or local taxes.

Employment Relationship. For purposes of this Agreement, Employee shall be considered to be in the employment of the Company as long as Employee remains an employee of either the Company, a parent or subsidiary corporation (as defined in section 428 of the Code) of the Company, or a corporation or a parent or subsidiary of such corporation. Any question as to whether and when there has been a termination of such employment, and the cause of any such termination, shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, and such determination shall be final.

Other Employment. Place shall devote all of his time, attention, knowledge, and skills solely to the business and interests of Company, and Company shall be entitled to all of the benefits or other issues arising from or incident to all work, services and advice of Place. Place shall not, during the term of this Employment Agreement be interested directly or indirectly, in any manner, as a partner, officer, director, shareholder, advisor, or in any other capacity in any other business similar to the Company's business or any allied trade.

At-Will Employment Relationship. Executive’s employment with the Company is at-will and not for any specified period and may be terminated at any time, with or without Cause or advance notice, by either Executive or the Company. Any change to the at-will employment relationship must be by specific, written agreement signed by Executive and an authorized representative of the Company. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or should be construed to contradict, modify or alter this at-will relationship.

Relationship to Other Benefits. No payment under the Plan will be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare or other benefit plan of the Company except as expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder.

Relationship to Other Benefits. Awards under the Plan shall not be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, profit sharing, disability or group insurance plan of PPL Corporation or an Affiliated Company except as may be required by federal tax law and regulations or to meet other applicable legal requirements.

Relationship. The relationship of the parties to this Agreement is determined solely by the provisions of this Agreement. The parties do not intend to create any agency, partnership, joint venture, trust, fiduciary or other relationship with duties or incidents different from those of parties to an arm’s-length contract.

Relationship. The Company and the Advisor are not partners or joint venturers with each other, and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to make them such partners or joint venturers. Nothing herein contained shall prevent the Advisor from engaging in other activities, including, without limitation, the rendering of advice to other Persons (including other REITs) and the management of other programs advised, sponsored or organized by the Advisor or its Affiliates. Nor shall this Agreement limit or restrict the right of any manager, director, officer, employee or equityholder of the Advisor or its Affiliates to engage in any other business or to render services of any kind to any other Person. The Advisor may, with respect to any investment in which the Company is a participant, also render advice and service to each and every other participant therein. The Advisor shall promptly disclose to the Board the existence of any condition or circumstance, existing or anticipated, of which it has knowledge, that creates or could create a conflict of interest between the Advisor’s obligations to the Company and its obligations to or its interest in any other Person.

Nothing herein contained shall prevent Gyrodyne from engaging in or earning fees from other activities, including the rendering of advice to other Persons and the management of other programs advised, sponsored or organized by Gyrodyne; nor shall this Agreement limit or restrict the right of any manager, director, officer, member, partner, employee or equity holder of Gyrodyne to engage in or earn fees from any other business or to render services of any kind to any other Person. Gyrodyne may, with respect to any investment in which GSD is a participant, also render advice and service to each and every other participant therein, and earn fees for rendering such advice and service. Specifically, it is contemplated that GSD may enter into Joint Ventures or other similar co-investment arrangements with certain Persons, and pursuant to the agreements governing such Joint Ventures or other similar co-investment arrangements, Gyrodyne may be engaged to provide advice and service to such Persons, in which case Gyrodyne may earn fees from such persons for rendering such advice and service.

Other Employment Policies. At all times during his or her employment, Employee shall comply with all of the applicable business conduct and other policies generally in effect for employees of the Company and Company Affiliates, as the same may be amended from time to time.

Termination of Employment or Consulting Relationship. The Committee shall establish and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement the terms and conditions on which an SAR shall remain exercisable, if at all, following termination of a Participant’s Continuous Service. The provisions of Section 6(h) shall apply to the extent an Award Agreement does not specify the terms and conditions upon which an SAR shall terminate when a Participant’s Continuous Service terminates.

Limitation of Rights and Employment Relationship. The establishment of the Plan shall not be construed to confer upon an employee or Participant any legal right to be retained in the employ of the Employer or give any employee or any other person any right to benefits, except to the extent expressly provided hereunder. All employees will remain subject to discharge to the same extent as if the Plan had never been adopted, and may be treated without regard to the effect such treatment might have upon them under the Plan.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 9(b), the Administrator shall establish and set forth in the applicable Option Agreement the terms and conditions upon which an Option shall remain exercisable, if at all, following termination of an Optionee’s Continuous Service Status, which provisions may be waived or modified by the Administrator at any time. Unless the Administrator otherwise provides in the Option Agreement, to the extent that the Optionee is not vested in Optioned Stock at the date of termination of his or her Continuous Service Status, or if the Optionee (or other person entitled to exercise the Option) does not exercise the Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified in the Option Agreement or below (as applicable), the Option shall terminate and the Optioned Stock underlying the unexercised portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. In no event may any Option be exercised after the expiration of the Option term as set forth in the Option Agreement (and subject to Section 7).
