12.      Incentive Compensation Plan:

Benefits under the Company’s Incentive Compensation Plan (the “ICP”) are realized upon either a Change-in-Control (as defined in the ICP) of the Company, or upon the issuance by the Company of an “Excess Dividend” (as defined in the ICP) following certain asset sales. The ICP provides that payments made in connection with an Excess Dividend may not exceed the hypothetical ICP payments that would have been made had there instead been a Change in Control transaction consummated on the dividend payment date. The ICP payments that would have been made had there been a Change in Control transaction consummated on December 30, 2013, the payment date of the $98,685,000 special dividend, were approximately $5,277,800. The ICP payments actually made in respect of the $68,000,000 cash portion of the special dividend totaled $5,044,600. Consequently, remaining ICP payments to be made in connection with the special dividend when and to the extent that GSD holders receive cash in respect of their GSD interests may not exceed $233,200 ($5,277,800 - $5,044,600).
