This Agreement (the “ Agreement ”) evidences the award of 20,000 restricted shares (each, an “ Award Share ,” and collectively, the “ Award Shares ”) of the common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“ Common Stock ”), of Reddy Ice Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”), granted to you, Paul D. Smith, effective as of September 15, 2008 (the “ Grant Date ”), pursuant to the Reddy Ice Holdings, Inc. 2005 Long Term Incentive and Share Award Plan, as amended (the “ Plan ”) and conditioned upon your agreement to the terms described below.  All of the provisions of the Plan are expressly incorporated into this Agreement.

 

1.             Terminology .  Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, capitalized words used herein are defined in the Glossary at the end of this Agreement.

 

2.             Vesting .  All of the Award Shares immediately vest upon the execution of this Agreement, but are subject to forfeiture if you are terminated by the Company for Cause or you terminate your employment with the Company without Good Reason prior to the one year anniversary of the Grant Date (the “ Anniversary ”).

 

4.             Restrictions on Transfer .

 

(a)           Prior to the Anniversary, Award Shares may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or disposed of in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise), except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process.

 

(b)           Any attempt to dispose of any such Award Shares in contravention of the restrictions set forth in Section 4(a) shall be null and void and without effect.  The Company shall not be required to (i) transfer on its books any Award Shares that have been sold or transferred in contravention of this Agreement or (ii) treat as the owner of Award Shares, or otherwise accord voting, dividend or liquidation rights to, any transferee to whom Award Shares have been transferred in contravention of this Agreement.

 

5.             Stock Certificates .  You are reflected as the owner of record of the Award Shares as of the Grant Date on the Company’s books.  The Company or an escrow agent appointed by the Committee will hold in escrow the share certificates for safekeeping, or the Company may otherwise retain the Award Shares in uncertificated book entry form, until the Anniversary.  Until the Anniversary, any share certificates representing the Award Shares will include a legend to the effect that you may not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, or hypothecate the Award Shares.  All regular cash dividends on the Award Shares held by the Company will be paid directly to you on the dividend payment date.  As soon as practicable after the Anniversary, the Company will deliver a share certificate to you, or deliver shares electronically or in

 



 

certificate form to your designated broker on your behalf, for the Award Shares.   Upon the request of the Administrator, you shall deliver to the Company a stock power, endorsed in blank, with respect to the Award Shares that have been forfeited pursuant to this Agreement.

 

6.             Tax Election and Tax Withholding .

 

(a)           The Company has agreed to provide to you a tax “gross-up” with respect to the Award Shares as set forth in the Employment Agreement.  Except as contemplated by the tax “gross-up”, you hereby agree to make adequate provision for foreign, federal, state and local taxes required by law to be withheld, if any, which arise in connection with the grant of the Award Shares.  The Company shall have the right to deduct from any compensation or any other payment of any kind due you (including withholding the issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock or redeeming Award Shares) the amount of any federal, state, local or foreign taxes required by law to be withheld as a result of the grant of the Award Shares in whole or in part; provided, however, that the value of the shares of Common Stock withheld or redeemed may not exceed the statutory minimum withholding amount required by law.  In lieu of such deduction, the Company may require you to make a cash payment to the Company equal to the amount required to be withheld.  If you do not make such payment when requested, the Company may refuse to issue any Common Stock certificate under this Agreement until arrangements satisfactory to the Committee for such payment have been made.

 

(b)           You hereby acknowledge that you have been advised by the Company to seek independent tax advice from your own advisors regarding the availability and advisability of making an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and that any such election, if made, must be made within 30 days of the Grant Date.  You expressly acknowledge that you are solely responsible for filing any such Section 83(b) election with the appropriate governmental authorities, irrespective of the fact that such election is also delivered to the Company.  You may not rely on the Company or any of its officers, directors or employees for tax or legal advice regarding this award.  You acknowledge that you have sought tax and legal advice from your own advisors regarding this award or have voluntarily and knowingly foregone such consultation.

 

7.             Adjustments for Corporate Transactions and Other Events .

 

(a)           Stock Dividend, Stock Split and Reverse Stock Split .   Upon a stock dividend of, or stock split or reverse stock split affecting, the Common Stock, the number of Award Shares and the number of such Award Shares that are nonvested and forfeitable shall, without further action of the Committee, be adjusted to reflect such event.  The Committee shall make adjustments, in its discretion, to address the treatment of fractional shares with respect to the Award Shares as a result of the stock dividend, stock split or reverse stock split; provided that such adjustments do not result in the issuance of fractional Award Shares.  Adjustments under this Section 7 will be made by the Committee, whose determination as to what adjustments, if any, will be made and the extent thereof will be final, binding and conclusive.
