7. Voting Rights and Dividends. The Executive has the right to vote the Restricted Stock, except to the extent shares are forfeited. The Executive shall not receive any dividends with respect to the Restricted Stock unless and until the Executive vests in the relevant shares. At the time of vesting, the Executive shall receive a cash payment equal to the cumulative dividends (without interest) paid on the shares of Restricted Stock in which the Executive vests for the period beginning on the date of grant of those shares, and ending on the date of vesting. No dividends shall be paid to the Executive with respect to any shares represented by shares of Restricted Stock that are forfeited by the Executive.
In the event any or all of the shares of Restricted Stock are split, or combined, or in any other manner changed, modified or amended, or the Company is recapitalized, restructured, or reorganized, the Executive shall receive such number of new shares or equivalent equity interest and value so that the value of any remaining shares of Restricted Stock under this Agreement is not diminished or adversely impacted in any manner.
8. Termination Policy. This Agreement is not an employment contract. This Agreement is, however, a contract creating enforceable rights between the Company (and any successor) and the Executive regarding the Restricted Stock. This Agreement is subject to the “Host Marriott Corporation Severance Plan for Executives” (the “Severance Plan”), attached hereto as Exhibit A. If the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated for Cause (as defined in the Severance Plan) or by the Executive without Good Reason (as defined in the Severance Plan), then all unvested and unreleased shares of Restricted Stock shall be forfeited. If the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated without Cause or by the Executive with Good Reason not following a Change in Control, then the amount of the Time Based Award for such year, and 50% of the Absolute TSR Award and Relative TSR Award for that year shall vest and all restrictions thereon shall be removed. If the Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by (i) reason of the Executive’s death, (ii) Disability, (iii) the Company without Cause following a Change in Control or (iv) the Executive with Good Reason following a Change in Control, then all shares of Restricted Stock shall vest and all restrictions thereon shall be removed. For Xx. Xxxxxxxx, Xx. Xxxxxxx and Xx. Xxxxxx, add the following sentence: [The Executive agrees that in the event of his death, however, his named beneficiary will receive $ (the “Proceeds”) from that certain [define the Insurance Policy] dated as of . Executive agrees notwithstanding the foregoing that he shall forfeit that number of shares which of Restricted Stock have a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of the Proceeds and any remaining shares of Restricted Stock shall vest.]

The Executive understands and agrees that the shares of Restricted Stock granted pursuant to this Agreement are in lieu of any other awards of long-term incentives or supplemental long-term incentives of stock options and deferred bonus stock awards for the period 2006 – 2008, and that the Executive is not entitled to receive any additional stock options award, deferred bonus stock awards or additional restricted stock award during that period (other than awards granted and still in effect prior to January 31, 2006 [and the shares of Restricted Stock granted on February 9, 2006 designated as a special shareholder value grant]). The Committee reserves the right to make additional long-term incentive awards to individuals in cases where it believes doing so is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

The Committee may condition the delivery of any shares or any other benefits under this Agreement on the satisfaction of applicable withholding requirements. The Committee, in its discretion, and subject to such requirements as the Committee may impose prior to the occurrence of such withholding, may permit such withholding obligations to be satisfied through cash payment by the Executive, through the surrender of shares of common stock of the Company that the Executive already owns, or through the surrender of shares of Restricted Stock to which the Executive would otherwise be entitled under this Agreement provided, however, that if the withholding obligation arises during a period in which the Associate is prohibited in trading in the Company’s equity securities by reason of the Federal securities laws, or any Company policy regarding xxxxxxx xxxxxxx, then the Company shall automatically withhold the number of shares with a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld from the Restricted Stock to which the Associate would otherwise be entitled under this Agreement.

In consideration of the grant of Restricted Stock the Executive hereby agrees that the Company has made and will make available to the Executive, and the Executive will have access to, certain Confidential Information of the Company and its affiliates.
