Re: GMAC Long-Term Incentive Plan LLC Long-Term Equity Compensation Incentive Plan Award Conversion
Dear Tom:
1. | You were granted a 2009 RSU Award under the GMAC Long-Term Incentive Plan LLC Long-Term Equity Compensation Incentive Plan (the Plan). The grant date of your Award was October 28, 2009 (Grant Date). As a result of a recent determination from the Office of the Special Master for TARP Executive Compensation, all 2009 RSUs that do not vest on or before December 31, 2009, are hereby converted to RSUs (Conversion RSUs) that are consistent with the definition of TARP Stock found in the Interim Final Rules issued pursuant to Title VII of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (the TARP Rules). |
2. | Subject to requirements of any Federal laws or regulations that may govern executive compensation, including but not limited to Title VII of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 and the Troubled Asset Relief Program, the unvested portion of your 2009 RSU Award, 3.225 bps, are now deemed considered Conversion RSUs. Because Title VII of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 currently limits the value of restricted stock that may be awarded to certain executives, the Committee reserves the right to adjust down the bps underlying this Award without your consent in order to comply with Federal law. If and when such an adjustment may be required, you will be notified in writing. |
3. | Subject to requirements of any Federal laws or regulations that may govern executive compensation, including but not limited to Title VII of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 and the Troubled Asset Relief Program, your Conversion RSUs fully Vest on October 28, 2012 (Vesting Date), and will be Paid on the later of the following. |
| Within 75 days of the Vesting Date |
| Within 75 days of and in equal percentages as GMAC repayment of TARP obligations in 25% increments. |
4. | The Committee reserves the right to change the Vesting Date or payment dates shown above in order to comply with Federal law. If and when such change may be required, you will be notified in writing. |
5. | If your employment is terminated due to death or Disability, then your entire Unvested Award will immediately Vest and be Paid within 75 days of this new Vesting Date. You may have previously designated a beneficiary. If not, your failure to designate a beneficiary will result in any payments as a result of your death being made to your estate. Any subsequent change in your beneficiary designation must be made in writing and communicated to the Plan Administrator at the address above. |
