At its meeting on December 8, 2016, the Board of Directors of Douglas Emmett approved a new Partnership Unit Designation and related award agreements for future grants of Long Term Incentive Plan Units (“LTIP Units”) under the Company’s new 2016 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan. The Partnership Unit Designation is the same as the prior LTIP Unit Partnership Unit Designation, except that the new Partnership Unit Designation provides the Company with the ability to require a minimum increase in Gross Assets Value of the Company before the LTIPs may be converted into a Partnership Common Units (which are ultimately exchangeable into Common Stock).
The Company also awarded LTIPs and cash incentive compensation to its employees and directors effective December 9, 2016 for their performance during 2016. These LTIP grants and cash compensation awards to executive officers were materially consistent with LTIP and cash awards for prior years, except that (i) the LTIP grants include conditions that each LTIP can be converted into a Partnership Common Unit (which is ultimately exchangeable into Common Stock) only after at least a 2% increase in Gross Asset Values and that any LTIP Units not converted into Partnership Common Units within 10 years of the Grant Date will be forfeited and (ii) Kevin Crummy received a one-time grant of LTIP Units valued at $700,000 in accordance with ASC 718, vesting one fifth on each of December 31, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020.
