CHANGE IN CONTROL AND TERMINATION AGREEMENT
THIS CHANGE IN CONTROL AND
TERMINATION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), to be effective as of the fifth
day of December, 2008, is made and entered into by and between MID_AMERICA APARTMENT COMMUNITIES,
INC., a Tennessee corporation (the “Company”) and Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx
(the “Employee”).
RECITALS:
WHEREAS, the Company
acknowledges that Employee’s contributions to the past and future growth and
success of the Company have been and will continue to be
substantial. As a publicly held corporation, the Company recognizes
that there exists a possibility of a Change in Control (as defined herein) of
the Company. The Company also recognizes that the possibility of such
a Change in Control may contribute to uncertainty on the part of management and
may result in the departure or distraction of senior management from their
operating responsibilities.
WHEREAS, outstanding
management of the Company is always essential to advancing the best interests of
the Company’s shareholders. In the event of a threat or occurrence of
a bid to acquire or change control of the Company or to effect a business
combination, it is particularly important that the Company’s businesses be
continued with a minimum of disruption. The Company believes that the
objective of securing and retaining outstanding management will be achieved if
the Company’s key management employees are given assurances of employment
security so they will not be distracted by personal uncertainties and risks
created by such circumstances.

and Employee, in the event of a Change of Control Termination, the Company
shall, on the termination Date in respect of such Change of Control Termination,
pay the Employee, in addition to any Base Salary earned but not paid through the

including, without limitation, the pro rata amount of Employee’s anticipated
bonus for the fiscal year in which Employee’s employment is so terminated, the
compensation and benefits set forth in Section
3(b).
(b) Compensation and
Benefits.
(i) A
Termination payment shall be paid which is equal to the sum of two and 99/100
times the Employee’s annual base salary in effect on the Termination Date plus
two and 99/100 times the average annual cash bonus paid to the Employee for the
two immediately preceding fiscal years, under this Agreement or otherwise
(“Termination Payment”). Notwithstanding Section
3(a), the Termination Payment shall be calculated and paid immediately
prior to the closing of the transactions constituting a Change of Control if the
Employee receives notice prior to the Change of Control that his employment will
be terminated on or after the Change of Control.
(ii) Employee
shall be permitted to participate in, and have all rights and benefits provided
by, all Benefit Plans which Employee was eligible to participate in immediately
prior to the Termination Date (to the extent such participation is possible
under the laws then pertaining to such Benefit Plans), for a minimum of two
years following the Termination Date.
(iii) In
lieu of Company Shares or Partnership Units issuable upon exercise of any
outstanding and unexercised Options granted to Employee, Employee may, at
Employee’s option, receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the
excess of the higher of the Fair Market Value of the Company Shares on the

paid in connection with any Change of Control of the Company, over the per share
exercise price of each Option held by Employee, times (ii) the number of the
Company Shares or Partnership Units covered by each such Option. In
the event Employee does not elect to receive a cash payment for any outstanding
and unexercised Options granted to Employee, Employee shall have the right to
exercise such Options in accordance with the terms and conditions provided in
the applicable stock option plans.
(iv) The
Company shall also pay to Employee all legal fees and expenses incurred by
Employee as a result of a termination described in Section
3(a) of this Agreement (including all such fees and expenses, if any,
incurred in contesting or disputing any such termination or in seeking to obtain
or enforce any right or benefit provided by this Agreement or in connection with
any tax audit or proceeding to the extent attributable to the application of
Section 4999 of the Code to any payment or benefit provided
hereunder).
(c) Certain
Transactions. Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraphs
(i) or (vi) in the definition of change of control, unless otherwise determined
in a specific case by majority vote of the Board, a Change of Control shall not
be deemed to have occurred for purposes of this Agreement solely because (i) an
entity in which the Company directly or indirectly beneficially owns 50% or more
of the voting securities or (ii) any Company-sponsored employee stock ownership
plan, or any other employee benefit plan of the Company, either files or becomes
obligated to file a report or a proxy statement under or in response to Schedule
13D, Schedule 14D-1, Form 8-K or Schedule A (or any successor schedule, form or
report or item thereon) under the Exchange Act, disclosing beneficial ownership
by it of shares of stock of the Company, or because the Company reports that a
Change of Control of the Company has or may have occurred or will or may occur
in the future by reason of such beneficial ownership.
(d) Escrow
Arrangement. If within thirty (30) days after the effective
date of a Change of Control Employee’s employment has not been terminated, the
Company shall deposit with an escrow agent, pursuant to an escrow agreement
between the Company and such escrow agent, a sum of money, or other property
permitted by such escrow agreement, which is substantially sufficient in the
opinion of the Company’s management to fund the amounts due to Employee set
forth in Section
3(b) of this Agreement. The escrow agreement shall provide
that such agreement may not be terminated until the earlier of (i) Employee’s
employment has terminated and all amounts due to Employee as set forth in this
Agreement have been paid to Employee or (ii) three (3) years after the effective
date of the Change of Control.
(e) Tax Matters. If
the Excise Tax on Excess Parachute Payments will be imposed on the Employee
under Code section 4999 as a result of the Employee’s receipt of the Change of
Control Benefits, the Company shall indemnify the Employee and hold him harmless
against all claims, losses, damages, penalties, expenses, interest, and Excise
Taxes. To effect this indemnification, the Company shall pay to the
Employee the Additional Amount which is sufficient to indemnify and hold the
Employee harmless from the application of Code sections 280G and 4999, including
the amount of (i) the Excise Tax that will be imposed on the Employee under
section 4999 of the Code with respect to the Change of Control Benefits; (ii)
the additional (A) Excise Tax under section 4999 of the Code, (B) hospital
insurance tax under section 3111(b) of the Code and (C) federal, state and local
income taxes for which the Employee is or will be liable on account of the
payment of the amount described in subitem (i); and (iii) the further excise,
hospital insurance and income taxes for which the Employee is or will be liable
on account of the payment of the amount described in subitem (ii) and this
subitem (iii) and any other indemnification payment under this Section
3(e). The Additional Amount shall be calculated and paid to
the Employee at the time that the Termination payment is paid to the
Employee. In calculating the Additional Amount, the highest marginal
rates of federal and applicable state and local income taxes applicable to
individuals and in effect for the year in which the Change of Control occurs
shall be used. Nothing in this paragraph shall give the Employee the
right to receive indemnification from the Company for federal, state or local
income taxes or hospital insurance taxes payable solely as a result of the
Employee’s receipt of (a) the Change in Control Benefits, or (b) any additional
payment, benefit or compensation other than the Additional Amount. As
specified in items (ii) and (iii), above, all income, hospital insurance and
additional Excise Taxes resulting from additional compensation in the form of
the Excise Tax payment specified in item (i), above, shall be paid to the
Employee.
The provisions of this Section
3(e) are illustrated by the following example:
Assume that the termination Payment and
all other Change of Control Benefits result in a total federal, state and local
income tax and hospital insurance tax liability of $180,000; and an Excise Tax
liability under Code section 4999 of $70,000. Under such
circumstances, the Employee is solely responsible for the $180,000 income and
hospital insurance tax liability; and the Company must pay to the Employee
$70,000, plus an amount necessary to indemnify the Employee for all federal,
state and local income taxes, hospital insurance taxes, and Excise Taxes that
will result from the $70,000 payment to the Employee and from all further
indemnification to the Employee of taxes attributable to the initial $70,000
payment.
4. Noncompetition. During
the Term, the Employee shall not, other than through the Company or affiliates
of the Company, own any interest in any Multi-Family Residential Property (other
than Multi-Family Residential Property in which the Company or the Partnership
has an ownership interest), as partner, shareholder or otherwise, or engage in
the Multi-Family Residential Business, directly or indirectly, for his own
account or for the account of others, either as an officer, director,
shareholder, owner, partner, promoter, employee, consultant, advisor, agent,
manager, or in any other capacity. For a period of one year after a
Change in Control Termination, Employee shall not own any interest in any
Multi-Family Residential Property as partner, shareholder or otherwise, or
directly or indirectly, for his own account or for the account of others, either
as an officer, director, promoter, employee, consultant, advisor, agent,
manager, or in any other capacity, engage in the Multi-Family Residential
Business within 5 miles of any Multi-Family Residential Property owned by the
Company or the Partnership at the time of termination of
employment.
The Employee agrees that damages at law
for violation of the restrictive covenant contained herein would not be an
adequate or proper remedy to the Company, and that should the Employee violate
or threaten to violate any of the provisions of such covenant, the Company, its
successors or assigns, shall be entitled to obtain a temporary or permanent
injunction, as appropriate, against the Employee in any court having
jurisdiction over the person and the subject matter, prohibiting any further
violation of any such covenants. The injunctive relief provided
herein shall be in addition to any award of damages, compensatory, exemplary or
otherwise, payable by reason of such violation.
Furthermore, the Employee acknowledges
that this Agreement had been negotiated at arms’ length by the parties, neither
being under any compulsion to enter into this Agreement, and that the foregoing
restrictive covenant does not in any respect inhibit his ability to earn a
livelihood in his chosen profession without violating the restrictive covenant
contained herein. The Company by these presents has attempted to
limit the Employee’s right to compete only to the extent necessary to protect
the Company from unfair competition. The Company recognizes, however,
that reasonable people may differ in making such a
determination. Consequently, the Company agrees that if the scope or
enforceability of the restricted covenant contained herein is in any way
disputed at any time, a court or other trier of fact may modify and enforce the
covenant to the extent that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances
existing at the time.
5. Employment
Status. The parties acknowledge that the Employee is an “at
will” employee of the Company and has not contractual right to continued
employment or compensation in the event of termination of Employee’s employment
for any reason or no reason at all, other than as set forth in this
Agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that Employee is not an
independent contractor. Any payments made to Employee by the Company
pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated for federal and state payroll tax
purposes as payments made to a Company employee, irrespective of whether such
payments are made subsequent to the Termination Date.
6. Notices. All
notices or deliveries authorized or required pursuant to this Agreement shall be
deemed to have been given when in writing and personally delivered or when
deposited in the U.S. mail, certified, return receipt requested, postage
prepaid, addressed to the parties at the following addresses or to such other
addresses as either may designate in writing to the other party:

7. Entire
Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire understanding
between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall
not be modified in any manner except by instrument in writing signed, by or on
behalf of, the parties hereto; provided, however, that any amendment or
termination of the covenant of noncompetition in Section
4 must be approved by a majority of the Directors of the Company other
than the Employee, if the Employee is then a director of the
Company. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the heirs, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.
8. Arbitration. Any

shall be settled by final and binding arbitration in Memphis, Shelby County,
Tennessee at a location specified by the party seeking such
arbitration.
(a) The Arbitrators.

12. Successors;
Binding Agreement. The Company will require any successor to
all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to
expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to
the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such
succession had taken place. Failure of the Company to obtain such
assumption and agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall
be a breach of this Agreement and shall entitle the Employee to compensation
from the Company in the same amount and on the same terms as Employee would be
entitled to hereunder if Employee terminates his employment for Good
Reason. The Company’s rights and obligations under this Agreement
shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the Company’s successors
and assigns.
