Exhibit 10.1

W. P. CAREY & CO. LLC

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT, made the 1^st day of March, 2012 by W. P. Carey & Co. LLC. (the “Company”), a Delaware limited liability company, at 50 Rockefeller Plaza, New York, NY 10020, and Trevor P. Bond (“Executive”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Executive has been an officer and employee of the Company in which capacity his services have contributed materially to the successful operation of the Company’s business; and

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to assure itself of the continued availability of Executive’s services, and Executive is willing to give such assurance in return for the benefits described herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, intending to be legally bound hereby, the Company hereby agrees to employ Executive, and Executive hereby agrees to be employed by the Company upon the following terms and conditions:

1. Office and Duties. Executive shall service the Company full time as its Chief Executive Officer and in such other positions and have such duties and power with the Company and its subsidiaries consistent with Executive’s positions and experience and abilities as may from time to time be determined by the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) or its designee. Executive will devote his full business time, except for vacation time and reasonable periods of absence due to sickness, personal injury or other disability, to the duties assigned to him and shall use his best efforts, judgment, skill and energy to perform such services faithfully and diligently to further the business interests of the Company; provided that nothing contained herein shall preclude Executive from (i) serving on the board of directors of any business corporation with the consent of the Board or (ii) serving on the board of, or working for, any charitable or community organization, so long as such activities, individually or collectively, do not interfere with the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder.

2. Term. This Agreement shall be for a term commencing as of the date hereof (the “Commencement Date”) and ending on March 31, 2015 unless sooner terminated as hereinafter provided. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, unless the Company shall notify the Executive or the Executive shall notify the Company, in either case, in writing not later than January 15, 2015 (or, if the term of this Agreement has already been extended, the January 15 immediately preceding the expiration of the then current term of this Agreement) that it or he does not wish the term of this Agreement to be extended, the term of this Agreement shall be extended for an

additional three-year period effective upon the first day following the expiration of the then current term (the “Renewal Date”). Promptly following the last date upon which notice of non-renewal could be given with respect to a Renewal Date, the Company shall make awards of restricted stock, restricted stock units or performance share units to the Executive in respect of a number of shares having a value, measured at the date of grant, at least equal to the target value at the initial grant date of, and having terms and conditions (with appropriate adjustments to reflect the later applicable grant dates) that, in the aggregate, are no less favorable to the Executive than those applicable with respect to, the Initial Agreement Grants set forth in Paragraph 4 hereof (the “Renewal Grant”); provided, however, that, if subsequent to the Commencement Date (or, if applicable, the date of the last Renewal Grant) the Company shall have changed the performance criteria applicable to performance share unit awards (and the Renewal Grant is in whole or in part in the form of a performance share unit award) or elected to provide annual long-term incentive awards generally to its employees on materially different terms and conditions than had been used with respect to awards in effect at the relevant date, then the terms and conditions then applicable to similar long-term incentive awards being granted by the Company shall be applied to the Renewal Grant. For the avoidance of doubt, no Renewal Grant shall be made at any time following delivery by either party of timely written notice that the term of this Agreement shall not be further extended. The period during which Executive is employed pursuant to this Agreement, including any extension thereof in accordance with the preceding sentence, shall be referred to as the “Employment Period.”

3. Compensation.

(a) Base Salary. During the Employment Period, Executive shall receive an annual base salary (“Base Salary”) at the same rate as in effect on the date hereof, which shall be payable in accordance with the Company’s generally applicable payroll practices and policies. The Committee or its designee shall periodically review Executive’s Base Salary in light of the salaries paid to other officers of the Company, the performance of Executive, and Executive’s total compensation from the Company and the Committee or its designee, as applicable, may, in its sole discretion, authorize an increase in such Base Salary by such amount it determines to be appropriate. Any such increase shall not reduce or limit any other obligation of the Company hereunder.

(b) Incentive Compensation. During the term of the Employment Period, Executive shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s cash-based incentive compensation programs (including, without limitation, any program for the payment of commission income, disposition fees, and bonuses), as the same may be amended by the Company from time to time, at a level determined by the Committee.

(c) Equity Compensation. The Committee may in its discretion determine to grant the Executive equity-based compensation (in addition to the grants referenced in Paragraph 2, if applicable, and Paragraph 4 below) at such times and subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine.

4. Stock Grant.

(a) Performance Share Units. The Executive will receive a performance share unit award pursuant to the Company’s then applicable equity compensation plan (the “Equity Plan”), representing a contractual right in respect to 42,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”), but subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions (including the performance conditions) specified herein or in the documents governing the applicable award (the “Initial Agreement PSU Grant”). The Initial Agreement PSU Grant shall be made as soon as practicable following the date this Agreement becomes effective, in respect of a performance period ending on the last day of 2014. The terms and conditions of the Initial Agreement PSU Grant shall be established by the Committee in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Equity Plan; provided that the performance objectives applicable to the Initial Agreement PSU Grant shall be the same as are generally made applicable to performance share unit awards made in the first quarter of 2012 to the Company’s other executives who are receiving performance share unit awards that represent a substantial portion of their long-term incentive compensation opportunities for the year of grant.

(b) Restricted Stock Units. The Executive will also receive, as soon as practicable following the date this Agreement becomes effective, a restricted stock unit award pursuant to the Equity Plan in respect of 28,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions (including service vesting conditions) specified herein or in the document governing the applicable award (the “Initial Agreement RSU Grant”, and, together with the Initial Agreement PSU Grant, the “Initial Agreement Grants”). The Executive’s rights in respect of the Initial Agreement RSU grant shall vest in three equal annual installments on each of February 15, 2013, February 15, 2014 and February 15, 2015, subject to the Executive’s continued employment through the applicable date. The Company shall pay dividend equivalents on a current basis in respect of all of the shares subject to the Initial Agreement RSU Grant with respect to all dividends declared on the Company’s Common Stock after the Commencement Date and prior to payment on (or forfeiture of) the Initial Agreement RSU Grant. The Initial Agreement Grants shall in all events be and become fully vested upon the occurrence of a “Change in Control.” For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Change in Control” shall have the same meaning given such term under the Equity Plan under which the awards described in Paragraphs 4(a) and (b) are made, as in effect on the date such awards are granted. The other terms and conditions of the Initial Agreement RSU Grant shall be established by the Committee in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Equity Plan; provided that such other terms and conditions shall be substantially the same as are generally made applicable to restricted share unit awards made in the first quarter of 2012 to the Company’s other executives who are receiving restricted share unit awards that represent a substantial portion of their long-term incentive compensation opportunities for the year of grant.

(c) The Initial Agreement Grants shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any equity grant the Executive may be entitled to receive pursuant to Paragraph 3(c).

5. Benefits, Perquisites and Expenses.

(a) Benefits. During the Employment Period, Executive shall be eligible to participate in each employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the Company, subject to the generally applicable provisions thereof. Nothing in this Agreement shall in any way limit the Company’s right to amend or terminate any such plan in its discretion, so long as any such amendment does not impair the rights of Executive without treating similarly situated executives in a similar fashion.

(b) Business Expenses. The Company agrees to reimburse all reasonable expenses incurred or paid by Executive in the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder, upon presentation of expense statements or vouchers and such other information as the Company may require and in accordance with the generally applicable policies and procedures of the Company, for the period beginning upon the Commencement Date and ending upon the termination of the Agreement. Such expenses shall be reimbursed in due course in accordance with the Company’s standard practices, and all reimbursement payments with respect to expenses incurred within a particular year shall be made no later than the end of the Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred. The amount of reimbursable expenses incurred in one taxable year of the Executive shall not affect the amount of reimbursable expenses in a different taxable year and such reimbursement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, solely in the event that reimbursement of such expenses is conditioned upon a separation from service, such reimbursement shall be made to Executive upon the first day following the six (6) month anniversary of the date of such separation from service.

(c) Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify Executive and hold Executive harmless from and against any claim, loss or cause of action arising from or out of Executive’s performance of services as an officer, director or Executive of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or in any other capacity in which Executive serves at the request of the Company on the same basis as it indemnifies its other officers pursuant to and in all circumstances subject to the terms and conditions of the Director and Officer Indemnification Policy of W.P. Carey & Co. LLC (or any successor policy thereto), as in effect at the relevant time, and as the such policy may be amended from time to time.

6. Termination of Employment.

(a) Early Termination of the Employment Period. Notwithstanding Paragraph 2, the Employment Period shall end upon the earliest to occur of (i) a termination of Executive’s employment on account of Executive’s death, (ii) a Termination due to Disability, (iii) a Termination for Cause, (iv) a Termination Without Cause or (v) a Termination with Good Reason.

(b) Benefits Payable Upon Termination. Following the end of the Employment Period pursuant to Paragraph 6(a), Executive (or, in the event of his death, Executive’s surviving spouse, if any, or estate) shall in all events be paid the Earned Basic Compensation and Accrued Employee Benefits. In the event of a Termination

Without Cause or Termination with Good Reason, so long as Executive executes (and has not revoked) a general release of claims in favor of the Company and its affiliates in a form acceptable to the Company (the “Required Release”) not later than 60 days following Executive’s termination of employment, Executive shall also be entitled to receive the Severance Benefit and Equity Acceleration, as such terms are defined below. The Earned Basic Compensation, Accrued Employee Benefits and, if applicable, the Severance Benefit shall be payable at the times established pursuant to Paragraph 6(c).

(c) Timing of Payments. Earned Basic Compensation shall be paid in a single lump sum as soon as practicable, but in no event more than 30 days, following the end of the Employment Period; provided that with respect to any amounts governed by a program that contains a stated payment provision, payment shall occur in accordance with the timing specified in the applicable program governing such element of compensation. Equity Acceleration shall occur, to the extent applicable and subject to the delivery (and non-revocation) of the Required Release, upon the occurrence of a Termination Without Cause or Termination with Good Reason, with any payment or distribution of the shares corresponding to the Initial Agreement Grants made in a single lump sum as soon as practicable, but in no event more than 60 days, following such termination, unless Executive had previously elected to defer delivery of some or all such shares upon vesting, in which case the affected shares shall be delivered in accordance with the terms of the plan provisions governing such deferral. Accrued Employee Benefits shall be payable in accordance with the terms of the plan, policy, practice, program, contract or agreement under which such benefits have accrued. Severance Benefits shall be paid, subject to the delivery (and non-revocation) of the Required Release, on the same regularly-scheduled payroll dates as Executive would have received his base salary had he continued to be employed and for the period ending on the first to occur of (i) the first anniversary of Executive’s termination of employment and (ii) the date on which Executive breaches any of the provisions of Paragraph 7 hereof; provided, however that (x) if the latest date by which the Required Release must be delivered is in a different calendar year than the date on which Executive’s employment terminates, any payment of Severance Benefits that, pursuant to such normal payroll schedule, would have been made earlier than such latest date for delivery of the Required Release shall be made on the 61^st day following the date on which Executive’s employment terminates and (y) if Executive is a specified employee within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), no taxable amounts payable by the Company to Executive pursuant to Paragraph 6 and other Company separation pay plan amounts, including bonus and other amounts that are conditioned upon a separation from service and not compensation Executive could receive without separating from service, shall be paid during the six (6) month period following his separation from service and, to the extent otherwise payable during such six (6) month period, shall be accumulated and paid on the first business day following the six (6) month anniversary of his separation from service, with interest for such period at a rate equal to the one-year Treasury bill rate as quoted in The Wall Street Journal (or in such other reliable publication as the Executive Committee, in its reasonable discretion, may determine to rely upon) from the date they would otherwise have been payable to the date actually paid; provided further, that taxable amounts remaining due pursuant to Paragraph 6 following the expiration of the six (6) month delay period shall be paid on regularly-scheduled payroll dates as described in this Paragraph 6(c).

For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Competing Business” shall mean any business which is engaged in (i) the business of structuring, obtaining the financing for (including, but not limited to, raising capital for investment funds or vehicles established to invest in transactions sponsored, arranged or facilitated by the Company), or otherwise implementing or facilitating long-term financing of corporate property using leasing arrangements (“Leasing Transactions”) or (ii) any activities that (x) compete with any aspect of the Company’s business that accounted for at least 5% of the Company’s revenues or profits in any four of the last eight completed fiscal quarters of the Company ended prior to Executive’s termination of employment or (y) compete or would compete with any business activities to which the Company has committed significant resources to expand its presence, or to enter into or otherwise commence, during the two year period prior to Executive’s termination of employment and that the Company is still actively pursuing at the date of Executive’s termination of employment (the activities described in subclauses (x) and (y) hereafter called the “Other Material Operations”); provided that nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Executive from providing services to any Competing Business so long as such services do not relate, directly or indirectly, to Leasing Transactions or Other Material Operations.

For the avoidance of doubt, it shall not be a violation of this Paragraph 7(e) for an entity to which the Executive provides services to hire or otherwise retain the services of a Restricted Employee unless Executive provides such entity assistance in the recruiting, hiring or retention of such Restricted Employee.

(f) Nonsolicitation of Business Associates. Executive agrees that, during the term of this Agreement and for a period of 24 months after his termination of employment with the Company, he will not engage in Leasing Transactions or Other Material Operations in which Executive solicits for himself or for any third party the

For purposes of this Paragraph 7(f), the term “Corporate Client” means (i) any business entity, regardless of form, which obtains financing or liquidity through effecting a Leasing Transaction with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, (ii) any business entity, regardless of form, which engaged as a principal in any transaction representing part of the Company’s Other Material Operations, and (iii) each affiliate of any such business entity identified in subclause (i) or (ii), but specifically excluding its private equity sponsors.

(g) Injunctive Relief. Executive agrees and acknowledges that the remedies at law for any breach by him of the provisions of this Paragraph 7 will be inadequate and that the Company shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against him from a court of competent jurisdiction in the event of any such breach. If any such court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that the restrictions contained in this Paragraph 7 are unreasonable as to time or geographical area, such court shall reform said restrictions to the extent necessary in the opinion of such court to make them reasonable and enforceable.

(d) Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding on, and shall inure to the benefit of, the Company and any person or entity that succeeds to the interest of the Company (regardless of whether such succession does or does not occur by operation of law) by reason of the sale of all or a portion of the Company’s stock, a merger, consolidation or reorganization involving the Company or a sale of the assets of the business of the Company in which Executive performs a majority of his services, unless the Company otherwise elects in writing to retain responsibility for the duties and obligations of the Company (and the benefits conveyed to the Company) under this Agreement.

(h) Entire Agreement. Except to the extent that the letter agreement between the Company and Executive relating to his recommencement of employment is expressly incorporated herein, this Agreement contains the entire understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings, inducements or conditions, express or implied, oral or written, except as herein contained. The express terms hereof control and supersede any course of performance and/or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the terms hereof. This Agreement may not be modified or amended other than by an agreement in writing.

(l) 409A Compliance. This Agreement is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, including good faith, reasonable statutory interpretations of Section 409A that are contrary to the terms of the Agreement, if any.

(m) Any “separation from service” within the Employment Agreement shall be construed consistent with Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder. The term “termination,” when used within the Employment Agreement in the context of a condition to, or timing of, payment shall be interpreted to mean a “separation from service” as that term is used in Section 409A of the Code.
