Incentive-plan design — the Compensation Discussion & Analysis

The Company's executive compensation program is intended to motivate and retain key executives to manage the business affairs of the Company in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. The overriding objective is to incentivize management to carry out the Company’s plan to pursue zoning and/or entitlement opportunities intended to increase the values of its remaining major properties so that they can be sold at higher prices, thereby maximizing distributions to shareholders during the liquidation process.
