AVATAR HOLDINGS INC.
2005 EXECUTIVE INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN
1. Purpose.
The Avatar Holdings Inc. 2005 Executive Incentive Compensation Plan
(the "Plan") is intended to provide incentives which will attract, retain and
motivate certain executive employees of Avatar Holdings Inc. (the "Company") and
of any subsidiary corporation now existing or hereafter formed or acquired, by
providing them opportunities in the form of periodic cash bonus awards
("Awards"), thereby motivating such executives to attain performance goals
articulated under the Plan.
2. Administration.
(a) The Plan shall be administered by a committee (the "Committee")
of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") and shall be comprised solely
of not less than two members who shall be "outside directors" within the meaning
of Treasury Regulation Section 1.162-27(e)(3) under Section 162(m) of the United
States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
(b) The Committee shall have the exclusive authority to select the
executives to be granted Awards under the Plan, to determine the size and terms
and conditions of the Awards (subject to the limitations imposed on Awards in
Section 4 below) including any restrictions or conditions on payment of Awards,
to modify the terms and conditions of any Award that has been granted (except
for any modification that would increase the amount of the Award payable to an
executive), to determine the time when Awards will be made and the performance
period to which they relate, to establish performance objectives in respect of
such performance periods, and to certify that such performance objectives were
attained. The Committee is authorized to interpret the Plan, to establish, amend
and rescind any rules and regulations relating to the Plan, and to make any
other determinations that it deems necessary or desirable for the administration
of the Plan. The Committee may correct any defect or supply any omission or
reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan in the manner and to the extent that the
Committee deems necessary or desirable. All determinations and interpretations
made by the Committee shall be binding and conclusive on all Participants (as
defined herein) and their legal representatives. No member of the Committee and
no employee of the Company shall be liable for any act or failure to act
hereunder, except in circumstances involving his or her bad faith, gross
negligence or willful misconduct, or for any act or failure to act hereunder by
any other member or employee or by any agent to whom duties in connection with
the administration of this Plan have been delegated. The Company shall indemnify
members of the Committee and any agent of the Committee who is an employee of
the Company or any of its subsidiaries, against any and all liabilities or
expenses to which they may be subjected by reason of any act or failure to act
with respect to their duties on behalf of the Plan, except in circumstances
<PAGE>
involving such person's bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The
costs and expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company.
(c) The Committee may delegate to one or more of its members, or to
one or more agents, such administrative duties as it may deem advisable, and the
Committee, or any person to whom it has delegated duties as aforesaid, may
employ one or more persons to render advice with respect to any responsibility
the Committee or such person may have under the Plan; provided, however, that no
delegation shall be made regarding the selection of executives who shall be
granted Awards under the Plan, the amount and timing thereof, or the objectives
and conditions relating thereto. The Committee may employ such legal or other
counsel, consultants, advisors and agents as it may deem desirable for the
administration of the Plan and may rely upon any opinion or computation received
from such counsel, consultant, advisor or agent. Expenses incurred by the
Committee in the engagement of such counsel, consultant, advisor or agent shall
be paid by the Company, or the subsidiary or affiliate whose employees have
participated in the Plan, as determined by the Committee.
