ENERNOC, INC.

AMENDED AND RESTATED NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR COMPENSATION POLICY

 

The Board of Directors of EnerNOC, Inc. (the “Company”) has approved the following policy which establishes compensation to be paid to non-employee directors of the Company, to provide an inducement to obtain and retain the services of qualified persons to serve as members of the Company’s Board of Directors.  Each such director will receive as compensation for his or her services (i) an equity grant upon his or her initial appointment or election to the Board of Directors of the Company and (ii) an annual fee payable in cash and/or stock, all as further set forth herein.

This Policy shall apply to each director of the Company who (a) is not an employee of the Company or any Affiliate, (b) is not associated with the Company’s principal stockholders, and (c) does not receive compensation as a consultant to the Company or any Affiliate unless such compensation is received solely for services provided as a member of the Scientific Advisory Board (each, an “Outside Director”).  Affiliate shall mean a corporation which is a direct or indirect parent or subsidiary of the Company, as determined pursuant to Section 424 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

Number of Shares

 

Each new Outside Director on the date of his or her initial appointment or election to the Board of Directors, shall be granted such number of restricted shares of the Company’s common stock and/or a non-qualified stock option to purchase such number of shares of the Company’s common stock as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee) on the date of grant in accordance with the “value transfer” model, as further described in the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” of the Company’s proxy statement for the 2010 annual meeting of stockholders.

a.                                       ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors for any reason other than death or disability, all restricted shares that remain subject to forfeiture provisions shall be immediately forfeited to the Company; or

 

b.                                      ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors by reason of his or her death or disability, all restricted shares that remain subject to forfeiture provisions shall be immediately forfeited to the Company; provided, however, that in the event such forfeiture provisions lapse periodically, such provisions shall lapse to the extent of a pro rata portion of the restricted shares subject to such grant through the date of his or her death or disability as would have lapsed had he or she not died or become disabled.

 



 

Effect on Options of Early Termination of Service

 

If an Outside Director:

 

a.                                       ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors for any reason other than death or disability, any then vested and unexercised options granted to such Outside Director may be exercised by the director within a period of three (3) months after the date the director ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors and in no event later than the expiration date of the option; or

 

b.                                      ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors by reason of his or her death or disability, any then vested and unexercised options granted to such director may be exercised by the director (or by the director’s personal representative, or the director’s survivors) within a period of one (1) year after the date the director ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors and in no event later than the expiration date of the option.
