(b) Subject to Section 4 hereof, the Participant shall be entitled to receive a payment on the related Payment Date pursuant to the Cash Award if the applicable Performance Goal is satisfied on the applicable Performance Goal Test Date.

(c) Subject to Section 4 hereof:

(i) if the Performance Goal applicable to the Stock Award is satisfied as of September 30, 2007, the Participant shall be entitled to receive on the related Payment Date the Stock Award (the “First Tranche”); provided that the First Tranche shall be reduced by the amount required by Section 162(m) of the Code (as determined by the applicable Committee) in order to reflect the time value of the Employee receiving the First Tranche prior to the Last Day of the Performance Period; and

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event a Change in Control occurs during the Performance Period, (i) the Participant shall no longer be entitled to receive any issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Stock Award and (ii) the Participant shall be entitled to receive a pro rata portion of the Cash Award (as of the Change in Control Date) for the fiscal year in which such Change in Control occurs.

(c) If the Participant’s employment with Avatar Properties is terminated by Avatar Properties Without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason, the Participant shall be entitled to continue to receive such cash payments or Common Stock issuances as would otherwise be made pursuant to this Agreement as though the Participant’s employment had not been terminated.

(i) the Participant shall be entitled to receive only that portion of any cash payments or Common Stock issuances otherwise payable pursuant to Section 3(d) hereof following such termination, equal to the product of (x) a fraction (which in no event shall exceed one (1)) the numerator of which is the number of completed whole months elapsed after the first day of the Performance Period to the date of death or Disability, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the number of whole months from the first day of the Performance Period until the applicable Performance Goal Test Date and (y) the amount of any cash payments or Common Stock issuances that would have been payable pursuant to Section 3(d) hereof if the Participant remained an employee of Avatar Properties through and including the Last Day of the Performance Period; provided, however, that with respect to cash payments pursuant to the Cash Award, the Participant shall only be eligible to receive a cash payment for the fiscal year in which the Participant’s employment was terminated for death or Disability, as the case may be, and the Participant shall not be eligible for any additional cash payments; and

(ii) the Participant will have no right to any other payments hereunder.

Any payments shall be made to the Participant (or the executor or administrator of the deceased Participant’s estate or the person or persons to whom the deceased Participant’s rights shall pass by will or the laws of descent or distribution, as applicable) no later than the relevant Payment Date.

For purposes of the preceding sentence, “Excess Bonus Payments” shall mean an amount equal to the sum of (A) the difference between (x) the amount of the cash payment pursuant to the Cash Award paid to the Participant with respect to any fiscal year (or portion thereof) in which the audited financial statements have been restated and (y) the amount that cash payment pursuant to the Cash Award would have been if the Company had used the restated financial statements to determine the amount of the Company’s Gross Profit for the applicable Performance Goal Test Date and (B) the difference between (x) the Fair Market Value on the Payment Date of the Common Stock issued pursuant to the Stock Award and (y) the amount that the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock would have been on the Payment Date if the Company had used the restated financial statements to determine the amount of the Company’s Actual Gross Profit Amount on the Last Day of the Performance Period.

(b) In the event that the Company’s financial statements with respect to any fiscal year (or portion thereof) within the Performance Period are restated within eighteen (18) months following the payment to the Participant of cash pursuant to the Cash Award or issuance to the Participant of Common Stock pursuant to the Stock Award such that Gross Profit is greater than previously reported, the Company shall pay to the Participant upon demand by the Participant following the filing of such restated financial statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission, an amount (the “Lesser Bonus Payments”) equal the sum of (A) the difference between (x) the amount that the cash payment pursuant to the Cash Award would have been if the Company had used the restated financial statements to determine the amount of the Company’s Gross Profit for the applicable Performance Goal Test Date less (y) the amount of the cash payment pursuant to the Cash Award paid to the Participant with respect to any fiscal year (or portion thereof) in which the audited financial statements have been restated and (B) the difference between (x) the amount that the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock issued to the Participant pursuant to the Stock Award would have been on the Payment Date if the Company had used the restated financial statements to determine the amount of the Company’s Actual Gross Profit Amount on the Last Day of the Performance Period and (y) the Fair Market Value on the Payment Date of the Common Stock issued pursuant to the Stock Award. At the option of the Company, the amount of the Lesser Bonus Payments attributable to the Stock Award may be payable in cash or Common Stock.

8. TAXES. Any cash payment pursuant to a Cash Award or Common Stock issuance pursuant to the Stock Award shall be net of any amounts required to be withheld pursuant to applicable federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding requirements. The Company shall have the right to withhold the amount of such taxes from any other sums due or to become due from the Company to the Participant as the Committee shall prescribe. In connection with any issuance of Common Stock pursuant to the Stock Award, the Company may require the Participant to remit to it an amount sufficient to satisfy such tax withholding requirements prior to the delivery of any certificates for such Common Stock. The Committee may, in its discretion and subject to such rules as it may adopt (including any as may be required to satisfy applicable tax and/or non-tax regulatory requirements), permit the Participant to pay all or a portion of the federal, state, local and foreign withholding taxes arising in connection with the Stock Award and any distribution of shares of Common Stock in respect thereof by electing to have the Company withhold shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of tax to be withheld, such tax calculated at rates prescribed by statute or regulation.

9. NO RIGHT TO CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT.

11. UNSECURED CREDITOR STATUS; NO PARTNERSHIP. The Participant shall rely solely upon the unsecured promise of the Company, as set forth herein, for payment hereunder, and nothing herein contained shall be construed to give to or vest in the Participant or any other person now or at any time in the future, any right, title, interest, or claim in or to any specific asset, fund, reserve, account, insurance or annuity policy or contract, or other property of any kind whatsoever owned by the Company, or in which the Company may have any right, title, or interest, nor at any time in the future. This Agreement is an agreement to pay compensation for services provided by the Participant and is not a partnership or joint venture and is not intended to create a partnership or joint venture between the Company and the Participant or any other person. The Participant shall take no position inconsistent with this characterization.

12. ASSIGNMENT; SUCCESSORS.

(a) The Cash Award, Stock Award and any interest of the Participant in any such awards may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of. Any attempt to transfer any such Awards in contravention of this Section 12(a) is void ab initio. The Awards shall not be subject to execution, attachment or other process.

15. FAILURE TO ENFORCE NOT A WAIVER. The failure of either party hereto to enforce at any time any provision of this Agreement shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provision or of any other provision hereof.
