6. AGREEMENT NOT TO COMPETE.

1.Covenant Against Competition. Executive agrees that during the term of Executive's employment hereunder and (i) if Executive's employment is terminated by the Company for Cause or by Executive without Good Reason, until the first anniversary of the date of his termination or (ii) if Executive receives the Severance Payment described in Section 7.1(a) of this Agreement because of a termination of his employment by the Company without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason, from the date of such termination through the third anniversary of such termination date, Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, as an employee, employer, shareholder, proprietor, partner, principal, agent, consultant, advisor, director, officer, or in any other capacity,

(1)engage in activities involving the development or operation of a manufacturers outlet shopping center which is located within a radius of fifty (50) miles of a retail shopping facility which, within the 365 day period ending on the date of the termination of Executive's employment hereunder, was owned (with an effective ownership interest of 50% or more), directly or indirectly, by the Company or was operated by the Company;

(2)engage in activities involving the development or operation of a manufacturers outlet shopping center which is located within a radius of fifty (50) miles of any site

which, within the 365 day period ending on the date of the termination of Executive's employment hereunder, the Company or its affiliate negotiated to acquire and/or lease for the development or operation of a retail shopping facility;

(3)engage in activities involving the development or operation of any other type of retail shopping facility which is located within a radius of five (5) miles of, and competes directly for tenants with, a retail shopping facility which, within the 365 day period ending on the date of the termination of Executive's employment hereunder, was (i) under development by the Company or its affiliate; (ii) owned (with an effective ownership interest of 50% or more), directly or indirectly, by the Company; or (iii) operated by the Company.

Executive covenants and agrees that he shall not, at any time during or for the first five (5) years following the term of his employment, directly or indirectly, divulge or disclose for any purpose whatsoever any such confidential information that has been obtained by, or disclosed to, him as a result of his employment by Company.

3.Reasonableness of Restrictions.

(a)Executive has carefully read and considered the foregoing provision of this Section, and, having done so, agrees that the restrictions set forth in this Section, including but not limited to the time period of restriction set forth in the covenant against competition are fair and reasonable and are reasonably required for the protection of the interests of Company and its officers, directors and other employees.

(b)In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any of the provisions of this Section shall be held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions thereof shall nevertheless continue to be valid and enforceable as though the invalid or unenforceable parts had not been included herein. In the event that any provision of this Section relating to the time period and/or the areas of restriction shall be declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to exceed the maximum time period or areas such court deems reasonable and enforceable, the time period and/or areas of restriction deemed reasonable and enforceable by the court shall become and thereafter be the maximum time period and/or areas.

4.Consideration. Executive's promises in this Section not to compete with the Company and not to disclose information obtained during his employment by the Company are made in consideration of the Company's agreement to pay the compensation provided for herein for the period of employment provided herein. Such promises by Executive constitute the material inducement to Company to employ Executive for the term and to pay the compensation provided for in this Agreement and to make and to continue to make confidential information developed by Company available to Executive.

5.Company's Remedies. Executive covenants and agrees that if he shall violate any of his covenants or agreements contained in this Section, the Company shall, in addition to any other rights and remedies available to it at law or in equity, have the following rights and remedies

against Executive:

(c)Company shall be entitled to a permanent injunction to prevent or restrain the breach or violation of the agreements contained herein by Executive or by Executive's partners, agents, representatives, servants, employees and/or any and all persons directly acting for or with Executive.

The foregoing rights and remedies of the Company shall be cumulative and the election by the Company to exercise any one or more of them shall not preclude the Company's exercise of any other rights described above or otherwise available under applicable principals of law or equity.

7. SEVERANCE BENEFITS.

1.Description of Benefits.

(a)Termination without Cause or for Good Reason: If Executive's employment shall be terminated before the end of the Contract Term (i) by the Company other than for Cause or (ii) by the Executive for Good Reason, subject to the limitation in Section 7.2 and to Section 9(b) hereof, the Company shall pay Executive an amount equal to three hundred percent (300%) of the sum of (x) his Annual Base Salary and (y) his “Average Annual Cash Bonus”. Such amount shall be paid in equal consecutive monthly or bi-weekly installments in accordance with the Company's regular pay schedule and subject to Section 9(b)(iv) over a thirty-six (36) month period beginning on the effective date of the termination of Executive's employment. For these purposes, Executive's “Average Annual Cash Bonus” shall be the average of the Cash Bonuses earned by Executive for each of the three consecutive Contract Years (or if Executive has not been employed for three full Contract Years, such fewer number of full Contract Years he has been employed by the Company) immediately preceding the Contract Year in which Executive's termination of employment occurs. In calculating Executive's Average Annual Cash Bonus, the amount of any share-based award under the Incentive Award Plan that Executive is required to recognize as income for federal income tax purposes in a Contract Year shall be included as part of Executive's Annual Cash Bonus for that Contract Year.

(b)Termination by Death or Disability. Subject to Section 9(b), upon the termination of the Executive's employment by reason of his death or Disability, the Company shall pay to the Executive or to the personal representatives of his estate (i) within thirty (30) days after the termination, a lump-sum amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Executive's Annual Base Salary for the Contract Year in which the termination occurs and (ii) on or before the day on which the Executive's Cash Bonus for the Contract Year in which the termination occurs would have been payable if the termination had not occurred, an amount equal to the Cash Bonus the Executive would have received for that Contract Year if the termination had not occurred multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in that Contract Year before the date of termination and the denominator of which is 365. This subsection 7.1(b) shall not limit

the entitlement of the Executive, his estate or beneficiaries to any disability or other benefits then available to the Executive under any life, disability insurance or other benefit plan or policy which is maintained by the Company for the Executive's benefit.

(c)Termination for Cause or Without Good Reason. If the Executive's employment is terminated by the Company for Cause or by the Executive without Good Reason, the Executive shall be entitled to all Annual Base Salary and all Benefits accrued through the date of termination. Such accrued compensation shall be paid in accordance with the Company's ordinary pay practices and, in any event, on or prior to the fifteenth (15th) day of the third (3rd) calendar month following the end of the calendar year in which the date of termination occurs.

(d)Survival. Neither the termination of the Executive's employment hereunder nor the expiration of the Contract Term shall impair the rights or obligations of any party hereto which shall have accrued hereunder prior to such termination or expiration.

(e)Mitigation of Damages. In the event of any termination of the Executive's employment by the Company, the Executive shall not be required to seek other employment to mitigate damages, and any income earned by the Executive from other employment or self‑employment shall not be offset against any obligations of the Company to the Executive under this Agreement.

2.Limitation on Severance Benefits.

(a)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, and except as provided in paragraph 7.2(b) below, payments and benefits to which Executive would otherwise be entitled under the provisions of this Agreement will be reduced (or the Executive shall make reimbursement of amounts previously paid) to the extent necessary to prevent the Executive from having any liability for the federal excise tax levied on certain “excess parachute payments” under section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code as it exists as of the date of this Agreement.

(b)The Company may determine the amount (if any) of reduction for each payment or benefit that Executive would otherwise be entitled to receive. The extent to which the payments or benefits to the Executive are to be reduced pursuant to paragraph 7.2(a) will be determined by the accounting firm servicing the Company on the date that the Executive's employment is terminated. The Company shall pay the cost of such determination.

(c)If the final determination of any reduction in any benefit or payment pursuant to this Section has not been made at the time that the Executive is entitled to receive such benefit or payment, the Company shall pay or provide an estimated amount based on a recommendation by the accounting firm making the determination under subparagraph 7.2(b). When the final determination is made, the Company shall pay the Executive any additional amounts that may be due or the Executive shall reimburse the Company for any estimated amounts paid to the Executive that were in excess of the amount payable hereunder.
