13

continue the Newco Equity Plan before or after the Effective Time.  Each of Vornado and Newco reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to amend or terminate the Vornado Equity Plan (and the awards thereunder) and the Newco Equity Plan (and the awards thereunder), respectively, at any time after the date of this Agreement, to the extent permitted or required under the terms of the Vornado Equity Plan, Newco Equity Plan or applicable Law; provided that no such amendment or termination shall prevent the actions described in Article V.
