PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Notice of Performance Share Unit Award (the “Notice”), this Performance Share Unit Award Agreement (the “Award Agreement”), and the Amended and Restated LGI Homes, Inc. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended and restated May 4, 2017) (the “Plan”), LGI Homes, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby grants the individual set forth in the Notice (the “Participant”) the Performance Units set forth in the Notice (the “PSUs”). Unless otherwise specifically indicated, all terms used in this Award Agreement shall have the meaning as set forth in the Notice or the Plan, as applicable.
1. Determination of Earned PSUs. The number of PSUs that shall be earned by and issued to the Participant shall be based upon the achievement by the Company of the performance standards as set forth in Exhibit A hereto (the “Performance Objectives”) over the three-year period beginning on ###START_DATE### and ending on ###END_DATE### (the “Performance Period”). The determination by the Committee with respect to the achievement of the Performance Objectives shall be made as soon as administratively practicable following the Performance Period after all necessary Company information is available. The specific date on which such determination is formally made and approved by the Committee is referred to as the “Determination Date”. After the Determination Date, the Company shall notify the Participant of the number of PSUs, if any, that have become “Earned PSUs” and the corresponding number of Shares to be issued to the Participant in satisfaction of this award of PSUs, subject to withholding as described in Section 4 below.
The number of PSUs which may become Earned PSUs depend on whether and to what extent the Performance Objectives were achieved by the Company. The methodology for calculating the number of Earned PSUs, including the definitions used therefor, is set forth in Exhibit A hereto.
2. Vesting and Risk of Forfeiture.
(a) Vesting. Subject to the Participant’s continuous status as a Service Provider until the Determination Date, the number of Earned PSUs determined pursuant to Section 1 shall vest on the Determination Date. Notwithstanding the above, the Target Amount of PSUs shall automatically become fully vested Earned PSUs prior to the Determination Date upon the earliest of: (i) the Participant’s Disability; (ii) the Participant’s death; and (iii) immediately prior to the closing of a Change in Control of the Company.
(b) Risk of Forfeiture. The PSUs shall be subject to a risk of forfeiture until such time the risk of forfeiture lapses in accordance with Section 2(a). All or any portion of the PSUs subject to a risk of forfeiture shall automatically be forfeited and immediately returned to the Company if the Participant’s continuous status as a Service Provider is interrupted or terminated for any reason other than as expressly provided in the last sentence of Section 2(a). Additionally, and notwithstanding anything in the Notice or this Award Agreement to the contrary, the PSUs shall be forfeited if the Participant’s continuous service as a Service Provider is terminated for Cause or if the Participant breaches (as determined by the Board) any provisions of the Notice, this Award Agreement or the Plan. The Company shall implement any forfeiture under this Section 2 in a unilateral manner, without the Participant’s consent, and with no payment to the Participant, cash or otherwise, for the forfeited PSUs.
3. Settlement of Earned PSUs into Shares. Subject to the terms of this Award Agreement, on the date all or any portion of the PSUs become Earned PSUs pursuant to Section 2(a), each Earned PSU shall be converted into one Share and as soon as practicable, but no later than 15 days, thereafter shall be delivered or made available to the Participant.
4. Taxes.
(a) Representations. The Participant has reviewed with his or her own tax advisors the tax consequences of this Award Agreement and the PSUs granted hereunder, including any U.S. federal, state and local tax laws, and any other applicable taxing jurisdiction. The Participant is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. The Participant hereby acknowledges and understands that he or she (and not the Company) shall be responsible for his or her own tax liability that may arise as a result of his or her receiving this Award Agreement and the PSUs granted hereunder.
b) Payment of Withholding Taxes. The Participant shall make appropriate arrangements with the Company for the satisfaction of all U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. income and employment tax withholding requirements applicable to any PSUs that settle in Shares in accordance with Section 3. The Committee shall have the sole authority to determine whether “net withholding” may be permitted or is required for purposes of the Participant satisfying his or her obligations under this Section 4(b). The Participant hereby acknowledges his or her understanding that the Company’s obligations under this Award Agreement are fully contingent on the Participant first satisfying this Section 4(b). Therefore, a failure of the Participant to reasonably satisfy this Section 4 in accordance with the Committee’s sole and absolute discretion shall result in the automatic termination and expiration of this Award Agreement and the Company’s obligations hereunder. The Participant hereby agrees that a breach of this Section 4(b) shall be deemed to be a material breach of this Award Agreement.
(c) Section 409A. The PSUs are intended to qualify as “short term deferrals” exempt from Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) and this Award Agreement shall be construed and interpreted accordingly. Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan or this Award Agreement to the contrary, the Committee shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to adopt such amendments to the Plan or this Award Agreement or take such other actions (including amendments and actions with retroactive effect) as the Committee determines are necessary or appropriate for the PSUs to comply with Section 409A.
5. Transferability of PSUs. The PSUs may not be assigned or transferred in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participant may designate one or more beneficiaries to receive payment with respect to the PSUs in the event of the Participant’s death on a beneficiary designation form provided by the Committee. If no such designation is made or if the designated beneficiary does not survive the Participant’s death, the payment with respect to the PSUs will pass by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The terms of this Award Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and transferees of the Participant.
6. Rights as a Stockholder of the Company. The Participant’s receipt of the grant of PSUs pursuant to this Award Agreement shall provide and confer no rights or status as a stockholder of the Company until such time the PSUs are settled in Shares and Shares are actually delivered to the Participant in accordance with Section 3 of this Award Agreement.
7. Legality of Initial Issuance. No Shares shall be issued in accordance with Section 3 of this Award Agreement unless and until the Committee has determined that: (i) the Company and the Participant have taken all actions required to register the Shares under the Securities Act or to perfect an exemption from the registration requirements thereof, if applicable; (ii) all applicable listing requirements of any stock exchange or other securities market on which the Shares are listed has been satisfied; and (iii) any other applicable provision of state or U.S. federal law or other applicable law has been satisfied.
