dated December 12, 2007, and a letter agreement dated October 13, 2008 (collectively, the
“Agreement”); and
WHEREAS, the parties desire to modify the Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed by the parties as follows:
1. All capitalized terms used in this Third Amendment and not otherwise defined shall have the
meaning ascribed thereto in the Agreement.
2. Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary, in addition to any other basis
for a termination of the Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof, the Agreement shall
terminate on the earlier of (i) that date specified in a notice (the “Termination Notice”) given by
the Company to Executive terminating the Agreement, provided that the Termination Notice may not be
given prior to November 30, 2010 and the date of termination specified in the Termination Notice
shall not be less than one (1) month from the giving of the Termination Notice, and (ii) that date
(the “Liquidation Date”) that the Company’s assets are transferred to a
liquidating trust (the earlier of (i) and (ii) above being hereinafter referred to as the
“Termination Date”).
3. Effective as of the Termination Date, the Term of the Agreement (which includes the
Employment Term and the Consulting Term) shall end. Further, there shall be no Retirement Period
and, accordingly, no Retirement Payments.
4. (a) Subject to the following, as of the Termination Date, Executive shall have no further
right to any compensation, fee or benefit from the Company, including but not limited to any
salary, bonus, retirement payment, consulting payment, paid vacation, paid sick leave, fringe
benefit, pension contribution (other than as described in Section 5 of this Third Amendment),
insurance, or the use of an automobile, which would otherwise have been part of Executive’s
compensation package under the Agreement had the same not been terminated (all of said items and/or
the cost thereof being sometimes hereinafter referenced to as “Executive’s Overall Compensation”).
(b) In consideration of the termination of Executive’s right to thereafter earn or receive any
of Executive’s Overall Compensation, subject to the following, as of the Termination Date Executive
shall be entitled to receive the sum of $1,106,700.00 (the “Lump Sum Amount”), payable in
accordance with this Third Amendment. In addition, on the Termination Date, the Company shall sign
over to Executive title to the automobile now owned by the Company and used by Executive in
performing his duties as such, in its then “as is” condition, provided that if said automobile is
damaged between the date hereof and the Termination Date and not repaired, the Company shall pay
over to Executive any insurance proceeds received by the Company not used to repair the automobile,
less the amount, if any, paid by the Company to provide Executive, in the interim, with a temporary
replacement automobile.
5. (a) At any time hereafter that the Company’s quarterly financial statement reflects that
the amount (the “Net Available Cash Amount”) by which the sum of the Company’s (i) cash, (ii) cash
equivalents, and (iii) marketable securities, exceeds the sum of (x) the Company’s potential
liability for the cost of environmental clean-up at Maple Tree Industrial Park, located in Palmer,
Massachusetts, as reflected on said financial statement, and (y) unescrowed tenant security
deposits held by the Company, by more than $2,000,000.00, within ten (10) days following the
issuance of
said financial statement the Company shall apply the amount by which the Net Available Cash Amount
exceeds $2,000,000.00 to satisfy any underfunding in the Company’s Defined Benefit Plan (the
“Plan”) which then exists until the Plan is deemed fully-funded. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
at any time following the Liquidation Date the Company’s quarterly financial statement reflects
that the Net Available Cash Amount exceeds $1,500,000.00, within ten (10) days thereafter the
Company shall apply the amount by which the Net Available Cash Amount exceeds $1,500,000.00 to
satisfy any underfunding of the Plan which then exists until the Plan is deemed fully-funded.
(b) When the Plan has been fully-funded in accordance with the foregoing, the Company shall
cause the Plan to be terminated and the proceeds thereof distributed to the participants therein in
accordance with their respective allocable share thereof.
6. The Lump Sum Amount shall be paid as follows:
(a) On the first day of the first full calendar month following the Termination Date, and on
each of the next seventeen (17) monthly anniversaries thereof, the Company shall pay Executive the
sum of Nine Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100 ($9,500.00) Dollars, and on each subsequent monthly
anniversary (following the aforesaid seventeen (17) monthly anniversaries), the Company shall pay
Executive the sum of Ten Thousand and 00/100 ($10,000.00) Dollars, in each case by check, subject
to collection, sent to Executive at the address for Executive first set forth above or any other
address designated by Executive by notice given to the Company in accordance with the Agreement,
provided that any such monthly payment shall not exceed the amount of the Lump Sum Amount then
outstanding.
(b) When the Plan has been fully-funded in accordance with Section 5 of this Third Amendment,
at any time thereafter that the Company’s quarterly financial statement reflects that the Net
Available Cash Amount exceeds $2,000,000.00 or, following the Liquidation Date, exceeds
$1,500,000.00, within ten (10) days following the issuance of said financial statement the Company
shall pay to Executive the lesser of (i) 43.15% of the amount by which the Net Available Cash
Amount exceeds $2,000,000.00 or $1,500,000.00, as the case may be, and (ii) the Lump Sum Amount
then remaining due and owing.
7. In the event the Company has terminated the Agreement in accordance with this Third
Amendment and the Lump Sum Amount has not been paid in full in accordance with Section 6 of this
Third Amendment, at any time following the Liquidation Date that all liabilities of the Company
have been satisfied other than those remaining under the Agreement, that certain Employment
Agreement between the Company and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, and that certain Employment Agreement between
the Company and Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx, the Company shall apply any remaining assets of the Company to
(i) first satisfy any underfunding of the Plan that then exists until the Plan is deemed
fully-funded (at which time the Plan shall be terminated), and (ii) then up to 43.15% of the
balance on account of the remaining unpaid Lump Sum Amount.
8. Until such time that the Company has both (a) fully-funded the Plan in accordance with this
Third Amendment, and (b) if the Agreement has been terminated in accordance with this Third
Amendment, paid the Lump Sum Amount in full, the Company shall not pay any dividends to
shareholders of the Company except as may be required to maintain the Company’s status as a real
estate investment trust.
9. Should the Company elect to terminate the Agreement in accordance with the terms of this
Third Amendment, for a period of eighteen (18) months following the Termination Date, Executive
shall render to the Company such consulting services as Executive would have been obligated to
provide to the Company in accordance with the Agreement during the Consulting Term.
10. Except as specifically provided in this Third Amendment, the Agreement shall remain
unmodified and in full force and effect.
