AND
XXXXXXXX XXXXXXX
This Amended and Restated Employment Agreement (this "Agreement") is
made and entered into as of the 16th day of September, 1997 by and between
XXXXXXXX XXXXXXX ("Executive") and CATELLUS DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION, a Delaware
corporation, with its principal office located in San Francisco, California (the
"Company").
RECITALS
A. The Executive and the Company entered into an Employment Agreement
on December 3, 1996 (the "Employment Agreement").
B. The Executive and the Company desire to amend the Employment
Agreement to provide for dual location service and certain other changes in the
terms and conditions of her employment with the Company.
C. The Executive and the Company desire to restate and amend the
Employment Agreement through this Agreement.
1
The Company desires to continue to secure the services of Executive as
Senior Vice President and General Counsel of the Company and Executive desires
to perform such services for the Company on the amended terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth.
A G R E E M E N T:
NOW, THEREFORE, Executive and the Company hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
EMPLOYMENT RELATIONSHIP
1.1 Employment.
----------
(a) The Company hereby employs Executive as Senior Vice President and
General Counsel of the Company, with a term of service which commenced on
January 1, 1997 (the "Commencement Date"). Executive shall report directly to
the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and shall have such duties as may be
prescribed by the Chief Executive Officer and shall be part of the senior
management group of the Company. The Company agrees that the duties which may
be assigned to Executive shall be the usual and customary duties of the offices
to which she may from time to time be elected or appointed and shall not be
inconsistent with the provisions of the charter documents of the Company or
applicable law (both as in effect from time to time).
2
(b) During the term of this Agreement, Executive shall, except as
described in clause (c) below and subject to the other provisions hereof, devote
her full-time energy and talent to her employment and shall not engage in any
other business activities which would represent a material conflict with her
duties to the Company. Executive may make and manage personal business
investments of her choice, provided that such activities and services do not
substantially interfere or conflict with the performance of duties hereunder or
create any conflict of interest with such duties.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may devote reasonable
time to activities other than those required under this Agreement, including
supervision of personal investments and activities involving professional,
charitable, educational, political, religious and similar types of
organizations, speaking engagements, memberships of boards of directors of other
organizations and similar activities, provided that Executive shall not serve on
the board of directors of any other business or hold any other position with any
business without the consent of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
Company recognizes that Executive serves as a Lecturer at Harvard Law School and
as Chairman of the Visiting Committee of Harvard Law School and agrees that
Executive shall continue to serve in these capacities at her discretion.
(d) Paid vacations of three weeks (subject to increase in accordance
with the Company's policy with regard to vacation for senior executives) every
12 months shall be permitted and Executive shall be entitled to take such
vacations at such time or times as she shall choose.
3
(e) The Executive shall not be required to perform services under this
Agreement during any period that she is disabled. The Executive shall be
considered "disabled" during any period in which she has a physical or mental
disability which renders her incapable, after reasonable accommodation, of
performing her duties under this Agreement and is eligible to receive income
replacement benefits during such period under a long-term disability plan or
disability insurance provided by the Company. In the event of a dispute as to
whether Executive is disabled, the Company may refer the same to a licensed
practicing physician of the Company's choice, and the Executive agrees to submit
to such tests and examinations as such physician shall deem appropriate.
1.2 Term.
----
This Agreement commenced on December 3, 1996, and shall continue in
effect through December 31, 1999 (as such date may be extended in accordance
with this Section 1.2, the "Expiration Date"), subject to the termination
provisions contained in Section 1.7 hereof; provided, however, that (i) unless
the Company gives notice of termination to Executive on or before the December
31 immediately preceding the Expiration Date, the Expiration Date shall be
automatically extended by an additional 12 months to the next succeeding
December 31 and (ii) the Company's obligations under Sections 1.8, 1.12 and 1.13
hereof and Executive's obligations under Section 2.2 hereof shall survive the
termination of this Agreement.
4
1.3 Base Salary.
-----------
Executive shall receive a minimum annual base salary (the "Base
Salary") payable in substantially equal installments no less than twice monthly,
with the first payment having been made on or about January 15, 1997 for
services commencing on the Commencement Date. The Base Salary shall be reviewed
every 12 months by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and, as a result
of that review, shall be subject to possible increase but not decrease based
upon the attainment of reasonable performance goals as mutually determined by
Executive and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Any increase to Base
Salary which results from that review will be effective on each February 1st by
the amount which results from that review and such revised base salary shall
thereafter represent the minimum annual base salary. Executive's initial
annual Base Salary under this Agreement shall be $231,000.
1.4 Bonuses.
-------
(a) Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual bonus (the "Base
Bonus") equal to up to 60% of Base Salary commencing with the year ended
December 31, 1997. For all periods beginning on or after January 1, 1998,
Executive's Base Salary for purposes of this Section 1.4 shall be deemed to be
the Executive's Base Salary determined in accordance with Section 1.3. The Base
Bonus each year shall be determined on the basis of the achievement of
performance goals negotiated in good faith annually in advance with
5
Executive by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company on or before February 28
of each year. The Base Bonus shall be payable each year no later than March 31.
(b) Executive shall be eligible to receive an additional bonus (the
"Additional Bonus") equal to up to 60% of Base Salary commencing with the year
ended December 31, 1997. The Additional Bonus each year shall be determined on
the basis of the achievement of performance goals negotiated in good faith
annually in advance with Executive by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company
on or before February 28 of each year; provided that the Additional Bonus may
not exceed the Base Bonus in any year. Such Additional Bonus will be payable
for outstanding service determined on the basis of reasonably attainable
performance goals. The Additional Bonus shall be payable each year no later
than March 31.
(c) All bonus payments shall be subject to appropriate withholding
payments deducted therefrom.
1.5 Stock Option.
------------
As of January 1, 1997, Executive was granted non-qualified stock
options covering an aggregate of 75,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company in
accordance with the Company's existing Amended and Restated Executive Stock
Option Plan and as approved by the Compensation and Benefits Committee of the
Board of Directors of the Company, and the Option Agreement is in the form of
Exhibit A attached hereto.
6
Additional option and other awards, if any, shall be made to Executive
in an equitable manner consistent with Executive's senior position and otherwise
in a manner consistent with the Company's executive compensation policies;
provided, however, the Company acknowledges that it is contemplated that options
for an additional 75,000 shares would be granted to Executive during the 1997
fiscal year if Executive's performance is of high quality. The issuance of any
shares of Common Stock of the Company issuable upon exercise of such options
shall be registered under the Securities Act of 1933.
1.6 Places of Performance.
---------------------
In connection with her employment hereunder, Executive shall be based
at the San Francisco and Dallas offices of the Company, except for required
business travel for the Company and for any leave of absence.
1.7 Termination of Employment.
-------------------------
(a) If at any time during the term of this Agreement, (i) Executive
involuntarily ceases to be an employee of the Company for any reason other than
(A) termination for Cause, (B) disability at a time when Executive is receiving
disability benefits under a long-term disability plan or disability insurance
provided by the Company, (C) death, or (D) normal retirement under the Company's
pension plan or a qualified retirement plan of the Company or (ii) Executive
terminates employment with the Company for Good Reason
7
(as defined below), then Executive shall be entitled to the benefits provided in
Section 1.8 hereof.
(b) For purposes of this Agreement, the following definitions are set
forth below:
(i) Termination by the Company for "Cause" shall mean termination upon the
willful and continued failure by Executive to substantially perform
her material duties with the Company (other than any such failure
resulting from her incapacity due to physical or mental illness) after
a Notice of Termination as set forth in this Section 1.7(b)(i) is
delivered to Executive by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company,
which Notice specifically identifies the manner in which the Board of
Directors believes that Executive has not substantially performed her
duties. For purposes of this Section, no act, or failure to act, on
Executive's part shall be deemed "willful" unless done, or omitted to
be done, by Executive not in good faith and without reasonable belief
that Executive's action or omission was not inconsistent with the best
interest of the Company.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be terminated
for Cause pursuant to this Section 1.7(b)(i) unless and until
Executive (A) has received notice of a proposed termination for cause
with a written explanation of the grounds for such proposed
termination, (B) Executive has had an
8
opportunity to confer with the Chief Executive Officer of the Company,
and (C) Executive has had 60 days after receipt of such notice to cure
any alleged non-performance of her duties. If at the end of such
sixty-day period the nonperformance has not been cured to the
satisfaction of the Chief Executive Officer, then the Company, upon
the determination of the Compensation and Benefits Committee of the
Board of Directors of the Company, may terminate this Agreement for
Cause.
(ii) "Good Reason" shall exist if, without Executive's express written
consent, any of the following occurs:
(A) a reduction by the Company in Executive's Base Salary as in effect
on the date hereof or as the same may be increased from time to time; or
(B) a demotion from the position or title of Senior Vice President and
General Counsel of the Company or an assigning of duties to Executive that
are inconsistent in any substantial respect with or are a reduction in any
substantial respect from the position, authority, or responsibilities
associated with the position of Senior Vice President and General Counsel
of the Company; or
(C) the failure of the Company to fulfill its obligations under this
Agreement; or
9
(D) the intentional failure of the Company, without Executive's
consent, to pay to Executive any portion of her salary, earned bonus, or
other current compensation (if any), or to pay to Executive any portion of
any installment of deferred compensation under any deferred compensation
program of the Company within ten business days of the date such
compensation is due or to issue shares of Common Stock of the Company in
accordance with the terms of stock options granted to Executive upon valid
exercise thereof; or
(E) a relocation of the Company headquarters or requirement for
Executive to be based anywhere other than within 25 miles from the site of
the current headquarters of the Company; provided, however, that
-------- -------
Executive's service in Dallas shall not be deemed a "relocation" or
"requirement" under this Section 1.7(b)(ii)(E).
(iii) For purposes of this Agreement, "Date of Termination" shall mean
the effective date specified in the Notice of Termination as of
which Executive's employment terminates (which shall not be less
than 60 days after the date such Notice of Termination is given)
or, in the event of termination of employment other than for
Cause, the date as of which Executive's employment terminates.
(c) Executive may terminate her employment hereunder at any time by
giving the Company prior written notice, which notice shall be effective not
less than 30 days after it is given to the Company.
10
1.8 Benefits Upon Termination.
-------------------------
(a) If, at any time during the term of this Agreement, (i) Executive
involuntarily ceases to be an employee of the Company for any reason other than
(A) termination for Cause, (B) disability at a time when Executive is receiving
disability benefits under a long-term disability plan or disability insurance
provided by the Company, (C) death, or (D) normal retirement under the Company's
pension plan or a qualified retirement plan of the Company or (ii) Executive
terminates employment with the Company for Good Reason (as defined below), then
the amount of benefits payable (as hereinafter described) on account of such
termination shall be equal to the sum of:
(i) unpaid salary with respect to any vacation days accrued but not taken
as of the Date of Termination; and
(ii) in the event that the termination of employment occurs prior to the
first anniversary of the Commencement Date, the sum of (1) the number
of full months remaining in this Agreement, but not to exceed 24,
multiplied by Executive's monthly Base Salary (determined without
regard to amounts payable under any bonus program, or other forms of
extraordinary compensation) as of the Date of Termination; and (2) the
number of full or partial months remaining in the period commencing on
the first day following the most recent period in respect of which the
Base Bonus has been paid and
11
ending on the Expiration Date, but not to exceed 24, multiplied by
$138,600 divided by 12; or
(iii) in the event that the termination of employment occurs after the
first anniversary of the Commencement Date, the sum of (1) the number
of full months remaining in this Agreement, but not to exceed 24,
multiplied by the average monthly Base Salary (determined without
regard to amounts payable under any bonus program, or other forms of
extraordinary compensation) for the immediately preceding two-year
period or, if Executive has not served the Company for 24 months, then
the average monthly Base Salary (determined without regard to amounts
payable under any bonus program, or other forms of extraordinary
compensation) for such shorter period; and (2) the number of full or
partial months remaining in the period commencing on the first day
following the most recent period in respect of which the Base Bonus
has been paid and ending on the Expiration Date, but not to exceed 24,
multiplied by the average monthly Base Bonus and Additional Bonus for
the immediately preceding two-year period or, if Executive has not
served the Company for 24 months, then the average monthly Base Bonus
and Additional Bonus for such shorter period,
provided, however, that the amount of such benefits shall be reduced by any
-------- -------
other benefits provided upon termination of employment to which Executive may be
entitled under any severance agreement with the Company.
12
Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment
provided for in this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise. The
Company shall not be entitled to set off against the amounts payable to
Executive under this Agreement any amounts owed to the Company by Executive, any
amounts earned by Executive in other employment after termination of her
employment with the Company, or any amounts which might have been earned by
Executive in other employment had she sought such other employment.
The Company shall pay Executive, no later than the fifth day following
the Date of Termination, a lump sum payment, in cash, equal to the amount due
under Section 1.8(a) hereof; provided, however, Executive may elect any time
-------- -------
prior to the Date of Termination to receive the amounts due under Section 1.8(a)
hereof on an installment basis as may be mutually agreed by the Company and
Executive.
(b) If, at any time during the term of this Agreement, Executive
ceases to be an employee for any reason described in Section 1.8(a) hereof,
during the remainder of the term of this Agreement, Executive shall continue to
be treated as an employee for purposes of the Company's group health and dental
programs, but not for purposes of life, dependent care reimbursement, business
travel accident insurance, or long- or short-term disability programs (except to
the extent Executive is drawing benefits at the time of termination), tax-
qualified retirement plans, or any other employee benefit plan or program of the
Company, and shall receive benefits substantially comparable to those in effect
on the
13
day before the Date of Termination subject to any reduction or termination of
such benefits similarly affecting all senior management personnel of the
Company.
(c) If, at any time during the term of this Agreement, Executive
ceases to be an employee for any other reason, then Executive shall be entitled
to the sum of (i) unpaid accrued salary, (ii) unpaid salary with respect to any
vacation days accrued but not taken as of the Date of Termination and (iii) any
bonus or portion thereof to which Executive is entitled under any then effective
bonus plan or program.
1.9 Benefits.
--------
Executive shall be entitled to receive employee benefits (including,
but not limited to, pension, medical, insurance and disability benefits) and
perquisites no less favorable than those provided to other senior executives of
the Company (other than the Chief Executive Officer).
With respect to medical coverage, Executive shall be entitled to
coverage for her family for the term of this Agreement unless Executive is
terminated for Cause in which case coverage shall terminate on the Date of
Termination except for any applicable COBRA coverage. If, at any time during
the term of this Agreement, Executive involuntarily ceases to be employed by the
Company for any reason other than Termination for Cause or Executive terminates
employment with the Company for Good Reason, then Executive shall
14
be entitled to medical insurance for the full term of this Agreement as provided
in Section 1.8(b) hereof.
Executive shall, to the extent available at a commercially reasonable
rate of premium, receive from the Company disability income replacement coverage
under the Company's enhanced disability program benefits which will provide for
replacement of 70% of Base Salary during any period in which Executive is
disabled if the disability arose during the term of this Agreement and prior to
the Date of Termination. During any period while Executive is disabled, and is
otherwise entitled to receive salary under this Agreement, any salary payments
to Executive shall be reduced by the amount of any benefits paid for the same
period of time pursuant to such disability income replacement coverage.
Executive also will be entitled to ample office space and appropriate
furniture and all other customary supplies and equipment to fulfill the
requirements of her corporate position as well as to a full-time secretary.
In addition to the benefits described above, Executive shall be
entitled to participate in a retirement program under the Company's 401-K Plan.
The Company's current benefit programs are described on Exhibit C
attached hereto and such benefits and the benefits described in this Section 1.9
shall not be materially altered except for across the board modifications
applicable to all Company executives.
15
1.10 Expenses.
--------
Executive shall be entitled to monthly reimbursement for all
reasonable business and business-related entertainment expenses, including an
automobile allowance in an amount not less than $981.05 per month as well as
reimbursement for cellular phone expenses. The term "reasonable business and
business-related expense" as used in the preceding sentence shall, commencing on
the date hereof, be deemed to include travel expense for travel between Dallas
and San Francisco in an amount, for any 12-month period, up to $10,000 plus such
additional expense, if any, as shall be incurred by Executive in connection with
travel between Dallas and San Francisco at the Company's specific request. The
Company and Executive agree that such travel expense may be funded for a 24-
month period through the purchase of a $20,000 24-month "Airpass."
1.11 Indemnity.
---------
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and the Bylaws of
the Company, as the same now exist or may hereafter be amended, the Company
shall indemnify Executive and hold Executive harmless for any acts or decisions
made in good faith while performing services for the Company, and the Company
shall use its best efforts to obtain coverage for Executive under any liability
insurance policy or policies now in force or hereafter obtained during the term
of this Agreement that cover other officers of the Company having comparable or
lesser status and responsibility and to obtain professional malpractice
insurance coverage for Executive. To the same extent, the Company will pay
16
and advance all expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs of
court approved settlements, actually incurred by Executive in connection with
the defense of or settlement of any action, suit or proceeding and in connection
with any appeal thereon, which has been brought against Executive by reason of
Executive's service as an officer or agent of the Company or as a director,
officer or agent of any subsidiary of the Company.

-------------------
Executive and the Company shall enter into arrangements for the
purchase of a new residence in the San Francisco area in accordance with the

ARTICLE II
COVENANTS
2.1 Covenant Against Competition. Executive agrees that for the
----------------------------
period ending on the earlier of the expiration of the term of this Agreement or
when employment is terminated hereunder, Executive will not, except as provided
in Section 1.1(c) hereof, without the prior written approval of the Chair of the
Board of Directors of the Company, directly or indirectly, as owner, partner,
officer or employee, engage in any business which is substantially competitive
with any business then actively conducted by the Company or by any of its
subsidiaries or undertake to consult with or advise any such competitive
business, or otherwise, directly or indirectly, engage in any activity which is
substantially competitive with or in any way adversely and substantially
affecting any activity of the Company or any
18
of its subsidiaries; provided, however, that ownership by Executive of rental
-------- -------
homes, of not more than 5% of the outstanding shares of stock of any such
business listed on any national stock exchange or quoted on an automated
quotation system, or of not more than 15% of the stock of any such business not
so listed or quoted, shall not be deemed a violation of this covenant, and
provided further that Executive may, without further approval, perform services,
including but not limited to consulting, providing legal advice, conducting
negotiations, and directing outside counsel, to Xxxxxxxx Xxxx Interests Company
d/b/a Crow Family Holdings ("CFH"), as appropriate to assist in transition as
her responsibilities at CFH are transferred to other persons.
2.2 Confidential Information. In further consideration of the
------------------------
payments to be made to Executive hereunder, Executive agrees that:
(a) During the term of her employment under this Agreement and for a
period of five years thereafter, she will not divulge to anyone, other than to
persons designated by the Company in writing or as may be required by law, any
confidential information concerning the Company or its business as to which
Executive at any time during her employment shall become informed and which is
not then generally known to the public or recognized as standard practice and
shall use reasonable precautions to ensure that such information remains
confidential; and
(b) During the employment period, upon termination of employment under
this Agreement or at any subsequent time upon request, Executive will return
promptly to the
19
Company as its property, all corporate documents and records in whatever form
they may exist, which are then in her custody, possession or control, including
those related to trade secrets or other confidential information, provided that
Executive may retain copies of any form files and any nonconfidential
information.
ARTICLE III
CHANGE OF CONTROL
3.1 Change of Control Payments.
--------------------------
In the event that a Change of Control (as defined in Section 3.1(c)
hereof) occurs during the term of this Agreement while Executive is employed by
the Company, Executive shall be entitled to certain payments as follows:
(a) If, following the execution of an agreement providing for a Change
of Control or within 12 months after the occurrence of the Change of Control,
Executive's employment by the Company or its successor is terminated by the
Company without Cause (as defined in Section 1.7(b)(i) hereof) or by Executive
pursuant to Section 1.7(b)(ii) hereof (relating to Termination for Good Reason),
then Executive shall be entitled to receive from the Company or such successor,
in lieu of, and not in addition to, the amounts otherwise payable to Executive
pursuant to Section 1.8 hereof, a lump sum payment in an amount which is equal
to three times the "base amount" in respect of Executive as defined in Section
20
280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or any
successor to that provision. In addition, the stock options described in
Section 1.5 hereof shall become fully vested in such event.
(b) If any payments under this Agreement, after taking into account
all other payments to which Executive is entitled from the Company, or any
affiliate thereof, are more likely than not to result in a loss of a deduction
to the Company by reason of Section 280G of the Code or any successor provision
to that section, such payments shall be reduced to the extent required to avoid
such loss of deduction. Executive shall be entitled to select the order in
which payments are to be reduced in accordance with the preceding sentence.
If reasonably requested by the Company, Executive shall provide
complete compensation and tax data on a timely basis to the Company and to an
accounting or law firm designated by the Company in order to enable the Company
to determine the extent to which payments from the Company and its affiliates
may result in a loss of a deduction. If Executive incurs fees or expenses in
accumulating such information, the Company shall reimburse Executive for any
reasonable fees and expenses so incurred.
If Executive and the Company disagree as to whether a payment under
this Agreement is more likely than not to result in the loss of a deduction, the
matter shall be resolved by an opinion of independent tax counsel chosen by the
Company's independent auditors. The Company shall pay the fees and expenses of
such counsel, and shall make
21
available such information as may be reasonably requested by such counsel to
prepare the opinion.
If, by reason of the limitations of this Section 3.1(b), the maximum
amount payable to Executive cannot be determined prior to the due date for such
payment, the Company shall pay on the due date the minimum amount which it in
good faith determines to be payable and shall pay the remaining amount, with
interest at a rate compounded semi-annually, equal to 120% of the applicable
Federal rate determined under Section 1274(d) of the Code, as soon as such
remaining amount is determined in accordance with this Section 3.1(b).
(c) A "Change of Control" of the Company shall be deemed to have
occurred upon the happening of any of the following events:
(1) the acquisition or holding, other than in or as a result of a
transaction approved by the Continuing Directors (as defined in clause (b)
below) of the Company, by any individual, entity or group (within the
meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934) (an "Acquiror") of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule
13d-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) of 25% or more
of the combined voting power of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock
and other stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election
of directors, but excluding for this purpose:
22
(i) any such acquisition (or holding) by California Public
Employees' Retirement System ("CalPERS"), which as of the Effective
Date holds approximately 40% of the issued and outstanding Common
Stock of the Company, or while CalPERS is the beneficial owner of
shares having a greater percentage of such combined voting power than
the shares held by the Acquiror;
(ii) any such acquisition (or holding) by the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries, or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of
the Company or such Subsidiaries; or
(iii) any such acquisition (or holding) by any corporation with
respect to which, following such acquisition, more than 50% of,

(Executive)
This Award Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into as of
January 1, 1997 (the "Date of Grant") between Catellus Development Corporation,
a Delaware corporation ("Catellus"), and
Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx
an employee of Catellus (the "Executive").
The Board of Directors (the "Board") of Catellus wishes to encourage
high levels of performance by individuals who contribute to the success of
Catellus and to further the identity of interests of the Executive with the
stockholders of Catellus by granting the Executive a non-qualified stock option
to acquire common stock of Catellus, par value $.01 per share ("Common Stock"),
pursuant to the 1996 Performance Award Plan (the "Plan").
Catellus and the Executive hereby agree as follows:
1. NUMBER OF OPTION SHARES. This Agreement evidences the grant by
Catellus to the Executive, on the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth
herein and in the Plan, of a non-qualified stock option (the "Option") to
purchase, from time to time, a total of
75,000
shares of Common Stock (the "Option Shares").
2. OPTION PURCHASE PRICE. Upon exercise, the Executive shall pay to
Catellus $11.05 per Option Share (the "Option Purchase Price").
3. OPTION EXPIRATION DATE. Unless terminated sooner in accordance
with the provisions of the Plan or this Agreement, the right to exercise the
Option shall expire on January 1, 2007 (the "Expiration Date").
4. VESTING RESTRICTIONS. The Option shall be exercisable in
accordance with the following provisions:
a. Except as otherwise provided herein, no portion of the
Option may be exercised for any reason until at least six months have elapsed
following the Date of Grant.

b. Subject to the provisions of Section 5 of this Agreement, the
Option shall become exercisable (i) as to the entire number of the Option Shares
on and after the eighth anniversary of the Date of Grant or (ii) if earlier, in
the amounts indicated on and after the dates set forth below (each, a "Vesting
Date") in accordance with the provisions of Section 4c of this Agreement:
(A) The Option may be exercised as to up to 25% of the Option
Shares on and after the first anniversary of the Date of Grant provided the
conditions specified in Section 4c of this Agreement are met.
(B) The Option may be exercised as to up to 50% of the Option
Shares on and after the second anniversary of the Date of Grant provided
the conditions specified in Section 4c of this Agreement are met.
(C) The Option may be exercised as to up to 75% of the Option
Shares on and after the third anniversary of the Date of Grant provided the
conditions specified in Section 4c of this Agreement are met.
(D) The Option may be exercised as to up to the entire number of
the Option Shares on and after the fourth anniversary of the Date of Grant
provided the conditions specified in Section 4c of this Agreement are met.
c. The Option may be exercised as to (i) 25% of the Option
Shares provided the average of the Closing Price (as defined below) of a Common
Share (as defined in the Plan) for any 30 consecutive trading days following the

For purposes of this Section 4c, the term "Closing Price" shall mean,
for any trading day, the closing price of a Common Share on such day (i) on the
New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), if the Common Shares are then listed on such
exchange, (ii) if the Common Shares are not listed on the NYSE, on the principal
national stock exchange on which the Common Shares are then listed, or (iii) if
not listed on any national stock exchange, as reported by NASDAQ. If the Common

5. EFFECT OF CERTAIN EVENTS ON VESTING AND EXERCISE.
a. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.
(i) General. In the event of the Executive's termination
-------
of employment for any reason, any portion of the Option that (A) has
not vested as of such termination, or (B) is vested as of such
termination or becomes vested as a result of such termination in
accordance with Section 5a(ii), 5a(iii), or 5b of this Agreement and
is not exercised within the period specified in Section 5d of this
Agreement, shall be forfeited.
(ii) Termination as a Result of Retirement, Disability or
----------------------------------------------------
Death. In the event of the Executive's termination of employment
-----
prior to the first anniversary of the Date of Grant by reason of (A)
retirement at or after age 65, (B) disability (as defined in the
Plan), or (C) death, a portion of the Option will vest equal to the
number of Option Shares subject to the Option multiplied by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months elapsed from
the Date of Grant and the denominator of which is the number of months
from the Date of Grant to the final Vesting Date.
(iii) Termination Without Cause or for Good Reason. In the
--------------------------------------------
event the Executive terminates her employment with Catellus for Good
Reason, or in the event the Executive involuntarily ceases to be an
employee of Catellus for any reason other than as a result of
retirement, disability, death or for Cause, the Option will vest as to
the entire number of Option Shares (and will be exercisable as to such
entire number of Option Shares without regard to the conditions of
Section 4a, 4b or 4c of this Agreement). "Good Reason" and "Cause"
shall have the meaning set forth in the Employment Agreement, dated as
of December 3, 1996, between the Executive and Catellus (the
"Employment Agreement").
(iv) Termination for Cause. Notwithstanding any other
---------------------
provision herein, in the event of the Executive's termination of
employment for Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement), any
unexercised portion of the Option, whether vested or unvested, shall
be immediately forfeited.
b. CHANGE OF CONTROL. If, following the execution of an agreement
providing for a Change of Control or within 12 months after the occurrence of a
Change of Control, the Executive's employment by Catellus or its successor is
terminated by Catellus without Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement) or
by the Executive for Good Reason (as defined in the Employment Agreement), the
Option shall vest immediately as to the entire number of Option Shares (and will
be exercisable as to such entire number of Option Shares without regard to the
conditions of Section 4a, 4b or 4c of this Agreement). For purposes of this
Agreement, a "Change of Control" of Catellus shall be deemed to have occurred
upon the happening of any of the following events:
33
(i) the acquisition or holding, other than in or as a result of a
transaction approved by the Continuing Directors (as defined in clause
(ii) below) of Catellus, by any individual, entity or group (within
the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934) (an "Acquiror") of beneficial ownership (within the
meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934) of 25% or more of the combined voting power of the then
outstanding shares of Common Stock and other stock of Catellus
entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, but excluding
for this purpose:
(A) any such acquisition (or holding) by the California
Public Employees' Retirement System ("CalPERS"), which as of the date
hereof holds approximately 40% of the issued and outstanding Common
Stock of Catellus, or while CalPERS is the beneficial owner of shares
having a greater percentage of such combined voting power than the
shares held by the Acquiror;
(B) any such acquisition (or holding) by Catellus or any of
its subsidiaries, or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of
Catellus or such subsidiaries; or
(C) any such acquisition (or holding) by any corporation
with respect to which, following such acquisition, more than 50% of,
respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock of such
corporation and the combined voting power of the then outstanding
voting securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in
the election of directors is then beneficially owned, directly or
indirectly, by all or substantially all of the individuals and
entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Common
Stock and other voting securities of Catellus immediately prior to
such acquisition in substantially the same proportion as their
ownership, immediately prior to such acquisition, of the then
outstanding shares of Common Stock of Catellus and of the combined
voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of Catellus
entitled to vote generally in the election of directors;
(ii) individuals who, as of the date hereof, constitute
the Board of Directors (the "Continuing Directors") cease for any
reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board, provided that
any individual becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose
election, or nomination for election by the stockholders of Catellus,
was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the persons then
comprising the Continuing Directors shall be considered a Continuing
Director, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose
initial election as a member of the Board is in connection with an
actual or threatened "election contest" relating to the
34
election of the directors of Catellus (as such term is used in Rule
14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934); or
(iii) approval by the stockholders of Catellus of (A) a
reorganization, merger or consolidation of Catellus, with respect to
which in each case all or substantially all of the individuals and
entities who were the respective beneficial owners of the Common Stock
or voting securities of Catellus immediately prior to such
reorganization, merger or consolidation do not, immediately following
such reorganization, merger or consolidation, beneficially own,
directly and indirectly, more than 50% of, respectively, the then
outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of
the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in
the election of directors of the corporation or other entity resulting
from such reorganization, merger or consolidation, or (B) a complete
liquidation or dissolution of Catellus, or (C) the sale or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of Catellus.
c. FORFEITURE. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, any
unexercised portion of the Option, whether vested or unvested, shall be
immediately forfeited if the Executive (i) is employed by a competitor of, or
engaged in any activity in competition with, Catellus without Catellus' consent,
(ii) divulges without Catellus'
consent any secret or confidential information belonging to Catellus, or (iii)
is engaged in any other activities which would constitute grounds for
termination "for cause" (as defined in the Plan).
d. EXERCISE PERIOD FOLLOWING TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.
(i) In the event of the Executive's termination of employment by
reason of death, any unexercised portion of the Option that is or
becomes vested upon her death in accordance with Section 5a(ii) of
this Agreement may be exercised by the Executive's personal
representative or by the person or persons to whom the Option shall
have been transferred by will or the laws of descent and distribution
at any time within one year following her death, but in no event after
the Expiration Date.
(ii) In the event of the Executive's termination of employment
(A) for any reason (1) other than death or (2) other than for Cause
(as defined in the Employment Agreement) or (B) by reason of the
resignation of the Executive, any unexercised portion of the Option
that is or becomes vested upon such termination in accordance with
Section 5a(ii), 5a(iii), or 5b of this Agreement (unless such
unexercised portion is forfeited in accordance with Section 5a(iv) or
5c of this Agreement) may be exercised by the Executive at any time
within three months following such termination of employment, but in
no event after the Expiration Date.
35
6. EXERCISE OF OPTION.
a. All or a portion of the Option may be exercised in
accordance with procedures (including requisite holding periods) established
from time to time by the Committee. If shares of Common Stock are tendered as
payment, such shares of Common Stock shall be valued at their Fair Market Value
(as defined in the Plan) on the date of exercise of the Option.
b. No fractional shares, or cash in lieu thereof, shall be
issued under the Option.
c. As a condition to the grant of the Option, the Executive
agrees (i) that Catellus may deduct from any payments of any kind otherwise due
to the Executive from Catellus the aggregate amount of any federal, state or
local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect thereto or,
if no such payments are due or to become due to the Executive, that the
Executive shall pay to Catellus, or make arrangements satisfactory to Catellus
regarding the payment to it of, such taxes and (ii) that Catellus or its
subsidiaries may withhold from the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon
exercise of the Option that number of shares of Common Stock that is equivalent
(valuing such shares of Common Stock at their Fair Market Value on the date of
exercise of the Option) to the amount of any federal, state or local withholding
or other taxes due upon the exercise of the Option. The Committee has approved
without further condition the offset of shares of Common Stock for such purposes
(subject to any applicable legal limitations) and the Executive irrevocably
elects this means of payment of such taxes. If any such taxes should become due
after the date of exercise, the Executive must pay, or arrange (to the
satisfaction of Catellus) to pay, the amount due.
d. No shares of Common Stock shall be issued or transferred
upon exercise of the Option unless and until all legal requirements applicable
to the issuance or transfer of such Common Stock have been complied with to the
satisfaction of the Committee.
7. CHANGE IN CAPITALIZATION. In the event of a change in the
capitalization of Catellus due to a stock split, stock dividend,
recapitalization, merger, consolidation, combination or similar event, an
appropriate adjustment shall be made in the number of Common Shares subject to
the Plan and the terms of the Option may be adjusted by the Committee to reflect
such change. Any adjustments pursuant to this Section shall be determined by
the Committee in its sole discretion.
8. NO ASSIGNABILITY. The Option is not assignable or transferable
by the Executive, other than by will, by the laws of descent and distribution or
pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order (as defined by the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, or the rules thereunder), and may be exercised during the
lifetime of the Executive only by the Executive or, if the Executive becomes
disabled, by her legal representative.
36
9. OTHER PROVISIONS.
a. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer any
right to continue employment with Catellus nor restrict Catellus from
termination of the employment relationship of the Executive at any time in
accordance with the Employment Agreement.
b. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer any
rights as a stockholder upon the Executive or any other person entitled to
exercise the Option with respect to any Option Shares covered by the Option
until such time as the Executive or such other person shall have become the
holder of record of such Option Shares.
c. The Executive acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan,
which is made a part hereof by this reference, and agrees to be bound by the
terms thereof. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement
and the Plan, the Plan shall be the controlling document. Capitalized terms
used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them
in the Plan.
d. The Executive acknowledges that Catellus has the right to
terminate, modify or amend the Plan at any time, but that no such termination,
modification or amendment may, without the Executive's consent, adversely affect
the rights of the Executive under the Option. The Executive further
acknowledges that the grant of the Option or of any other option in one year or
at one time does not in any way obligate Catellus to make a grant of an option
at any future time or in any given amount.
e. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is held to
be invalid, void or unenforceable, the same shall not affect, in any respect
whatsoever, the validity of any other provision of this Agreement.
f. The rights and obligations under this Agreement shall inure
to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon, Catellus, the Executive and the
Executive's representatives and beneficiaries.
g. Any communication under this Agreement shall be in writing
and addressed to Catellus at 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx
00000, Attention: Secretary and to the Executive at the address given beneath
the Executive's signature, or at such other address as either party may
hereafter designate in writing to the other.
h. The interpretation, performance and enforcement of the
Option and this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of
California.

DO NOT DESTROY THIS NOTE: WHEN PAID, THIS NOTE, WITH DEED OF TRUST SECURING SAME
MUST BE SURRENDERED TO TRUSTEE FOR CANCELLATION BEFORE RECONVEYANCE WILL BE
MADE.
NOTE SECURED BY DEED OF TRUST
$400,000 San Francisco, California October ___, 1997
For value received, the undersigned ("MAKER") promises to pay to Catellus
Development Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("HOLDER"), or order at 000
Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, the principal sum of FOUR
HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($400,000) without interest, as such principal sum may
be adjusted pursuant hereto. Principal payable in lawful money of the United
States. This Note Secured by Deed of Trust (this "NOTE") is secured by a Deed
of Trust and certain other security documents (collectively, the "Security
Documents") encumbering Maker's interest in those certain premises known as 0000
Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx 0000, Xxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000 (the "CURRENT
RESIDENCE"; the Current Residence and any subsequent residence acquired through
an Interim Sale (as defined below), are each referred to herein, individually,
as a "RESIDENCE"). The entire principal balance of this Note, shall be due and
payable on the date of the Final Sale (as defined below), or such earlier date
as may be provided herein or in the Security Documents.
So long as Maker is employed by Holder: if Maker sells a Residence, (A)
Maker may: (i) pay to Holder the entire principal balance of this Note, without
interest or penalty, and this Note shall be discharged, or (ii) deposit with
Holder, cash in an amount not less than the entire principal balance of this
Note (the "Holding Deposit") without paying any amount due under this Note for a
period of nine (9) months from the closing date of the sale of such Residence
(the "Holding Period"); (B) if Maker does not purchase a new Residence within
the Holding Period, this Note shall become due and payable; (C) if Maker
purchases a new Residence within the Holding Period (the sale of a Residence and
the purchase of a new Residence within the Holding Period is referred to herein
as an "Interim Sale"), Maker shall
have the option, to be exercised upon written notice to Holder; (i) to withdraw
the Holding Deposit from Holder and to secure this Note with a first priority
deed of trust encumbering such new Residence having an Appraised Value not less
than $500,000, or (ii) to finance the purchase of the new Residence on the terms
and conditions set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto (referred to herein as the
---------
"Participating Mortgage Alternative"); and (D) if Maker elects the Participating
Mortgage Alternative, Maker and Holder agree to execute such documents and
perform such acts as may be necessary or appropriate to accomplish the intent of
the Participating Mortgage Alternative. Any sale of a Residence that is not
made pursuant to an Interim Sale shall be deemed to be a "Final Sale."
If Maker's employment with Holder is terminated for any reason by either
party ("Termination"), and Maker has not elected the Participating Mortgage
Alternative, the Maker shall repay this Note within twenty four (24) months of
Maker's receipt of Holder's demand for repayment, which demand may be made at
any time after the Termination. If this Note is not fully repaid by the end of
such period, the Holder will have the right to buy Maker's interest in such
Residence at ninety-four percent (94%) of the excess of the Appraised Value over
the principal balance of this Note, and this Note shall be deemed discharged.
If the Holder does not make such a demand or exercise its right to purchase
Maker's interest, the next sale of such Residence will be the "Final Sale."
For purposes hereof, "Appraised Value" means the value of such Residence
determined by an MAI appraiser selected by Maker. The costs of such appraisal
shall be borne by Holder.
Maker may prepay this Note at any time in whole or in part.
If this Note conflicts with the provisions of the Security Documents, then
this Note shall control. Specifically, without limitation, the indebtedness
evidenced by this Note shall only be due and payable when and as provided in
this Note, and Holder may not accelerate the payment hereof,
Maker shall have sole authority to make all determinations regarding every
aspect of the use, ownership, maintenance and repair of the Residence,
including, without limitation, when and at what price to sell the Residence, the
proper level of maintenance, security and insurance coverage, and whether and to
what extent alterations, additions and improvements
to the Residence will be made. All insurance proceeds payable for damage to the
Residence shall be paid to Maker to repair such damage or, at Maker's option, to
repayment of the Note.
Holder may not assign the Note. The Security Documents shall only secure
the indebtedness evidenced by the Note and the liens and security interests
created thereby shall be released upon payment in full of the Note. Holder's
recourse with respect to obligations under the Note and the Security Documents
shall be solely the property securing the Note.

There will be no current return payable on the Holder's loan. Upon the Final
Sale (as defined below), the Holder will receive, as full satisfaction for
Maker's obligations under the Note, an amount equal to the product of the net
proceeds (after expenses of sale and repayment of the first mortgage loan) of
the Participating Mortgage Residence and a fraction the numerator of which is
the principal balance of the Note and the denominator of which is the total
basis of the Participating Mortgage Residence (including subsequent improvements
B-1
made by Maker). Maker will have no responsibility, beyond forwarding the
Holder's share of proceeds, for the return to the Holder and will be protected
from liability for any loss or poor performance of the investment.
Expenses:
--------
Maker will be responsible for taxes, insurance, and maintenance. Maker will
determine the appropriate level of insurance and deductible; the Holder will be
a named insured to the extent of its interest. In the event of earthquake
damage, any deductible that exceeds the deductible for any other damage under
the homeowner's policy will be borne first by the Holder.
Maker Option to Purchase:
------------------------
Maker will have the option to purchase, at any time, the Note for an amount
equal to the product of 94% of the Appraised Value and a fraction the numerator
of which is the amount of the principal balance of the Note and the denominator
of which is the total basis of the Participating Mortgage Residence.
Interim Sale:
------------
If Maker sells the Participating Mortgage Residence while employed by the Holder
and reinvests in a new Residence, the Holder will reinvest its share of the
proceeds of the sale of the Participating Mortgage Residence in the new
Residence in the same proportion that Maker reinvests her share of the proceeds
from the sale of the Participating Mortgage Residence in the new Residence,
provided that Maker must always have at least $400,000 invested in the new
Residence.
Termination of Employment:
-------------------------
If Maker's employment is terminated for any reason by either party
("Termination"), the Holder may, within 30 days of Termination, demand that a
"Final Sale" of the Participating Mortgage Residence occur within 24 months of
the end of the term of that certain Employment Agreement, dated as of December
3, 1996, by and between Holder and Maker,
B-2
as such agreement may be amended, restated and modified from time to time. If
no sale of the Participating Mortgage Residence to a third party has occurred by
the end of that period, the Holder will have the right to buy Maker's interest
in the Participating Mortgage Residence for an amount equal to the product of
the amount equal to ninety-four percent (94%) of the Appraised Value multiplied
by a fraction the numerator of which is the total basis in the Participating
Mortgage Residence less the principal balance of the Note and the denominator of
which is the total basis in the Participating Mortgage Residence. If the Holder
does not make such a demand or exercise its right to purchase Maker's interest,
the Holder's debt will be deemed to have been converted to an equity investment,
but otherwise subject to the remaining conditions of this agreement, and the
next sale of the Participating Mortgage Residence will be the "Final Sale."
Appraised Value: For purposes hereof, "Appraised Value" means the value of the
---------------
Participating Mortgage Residence determined by an MAI appraiser selected by
Maker. The costs of such appraisal shall be borne by Maker in the event of an
exercise of her option to purchase the Holder note and by the Holder in the
event of an exercise of its option to require the sale of the Participating
Mortgage Residence or to purchase Maker's interest.
