Exhibit 10.2
PERFORMANCE-BASED
2007 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT — CASH SETTLEMENT
2007 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT — CASH SETTLEMENT
AMENDED AND RESTATED 2003 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
THIS AWARD AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made as of this 12th day of December 2006, effective
as of January 1, 2007 (hereinafter referred to as the “Date of Grant”) by and between TD Banknorth
Inc. (the “Company”) and (the “Participant”). Defined terms, unless otherwise
defined herein, shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Plan (as hereinafter defined).
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Amended and Restated 2003 Equity Incentive Plan (the
“Plan”), which is hereby incorporated in its entirety by reference herein; and
WHEREAS, the Company desires to grant to the Participant Performance-Based Restricted Stock
Units, as described in the Plan.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth and for other
good and valuable consideration, the Company and the Participant agree as follows:
1. Restricted Stock Units. The Company hereby grants to the Participant an Award of
Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (the “Target Units”), with each Target Unit
representing one share of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company (the “Common
Stock”), upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. The number of Target Units is subject to
adjustment as provided in the Plan and in this Agreement. The Target Units represent an unfunded,
unsecured deferred compensation obligation of the Company.
2. Performance Result and Performance Target.
(a) The “Performance Result” to be used for calculating the Performance Factor is the Total
Shareholder Return achieved by The Toronto-Dominion Bank over the 3-year period from the end of the
fiscal year of The Toronto-Dominion Bank immediately preceding the Date of Grant to the end of the
fiscal year of The Toronto-Dominion Bank immediately preceding December 31, 2009 (the “Maturity
Date”).
(b) The “Performance Target” to be used for calculating the Performance Factor is the average
Total Shareholder Return achieved by a comparative group of major banks over the 3-year period from
the end of the fiscal year of The Toronto-Dominion Bank immediately preceding the Date of Grant to
the end of the fiscal year of The Toronto-Dominion Bank immediately preceding the Maturity Date.
The comparative group of major banks for purposes of this Agreement will be the group selected by The Toronto-Dominion Bank under the TDBFG Performance Share Unit Plan for awards
with similar performance periods, as determined by the Committee.
(c) “Total Shareholder Return” is the change in market value of the common shares of The
Toronto-Dominion Bank (the “Parent Common Shares”) (or the common shares of the other major banks
used in the peer group, as the case may be) calculated as at the end of the fiscal year immediately
preceding the Maturity Date, expressed as a percentage of the market value calculated as at the end
of the fiscal year immediately preceding the Date of Grant (based on the closing price on the last
trading day in October 2006) and compounded annually, assuming quarterly reinvestment of dividends.
As an example, a percentage of ten percent shall be shown as 10.0%, and the percentages shall be
rounded to one decimal place.
3. Performance Factor and Actual Units.
(a) The Performance Factor is a multiple expressed as a percentage that is determined by
comparing the Performance Result to the Performance Target, pursuant to the following formula, and
rounded to one decimal place:
Performance Factor = ((Performance Result — Performance Target) x 3) + 100
(b) Limitation on Performance Factor. The Performance Factor can never be less than 80% or
greater than 120% even if the calculation of the Performance Factor results in a number that is
less than 80% or greater than 120%.
(c) Calculation of Number of Actual Units. The number of Target Units will be multiplied by
the Performance Factor to determine the number of Actual Units. However, notwithstanding any other
provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of
November 19, 2006 (the “Merger Agreement”) among the Company, The Toronto-Dominion Bank and Bonn
Merger Co. is terminated for any reason, then the performance criteria specified herein, including
the Performance Result, the Performance Target and the Performance Factor, shall be inapplicable,
and the Target Units will vest on the third annual anniversary of the Date of Grant as if this
Agreement was a time-based vesting award from the Date of Grant. If the Merger Agreement is
terminated for any reason, the number of Actual Units shall equal the number of Target Units.
4. Adjustments to Number of Actual Units.
(a) The performance criteria and targets and the service requirement were determined based on
a full three-year cycle. The number of Actual Units will be multiplied by a Service Percentage as
defined below to determine the number of Final Units to be paid out.
(b) For Participants who remain continuously employed with the Company for the entire period
from January 1, 2007 through and including December 31, 2009 (the “Service Period”), the Service
Percentage shall equal 100%. For Participants whose employment is terminated during the Service
Period due to death or Disability, the Service Percentage shall equal 100%. For Participants whose
employment is terminated during the Service Period due to Retirement (as defined below), the Service Percentage shall equal the following quotient: (a) the number of calendar weeks from
January 1, 2007 through and including the date of Retirement, divided by (b) 156 weeks, rounded to
the nearest one-tenth of a percent. For Participants who are on an unpaid leave of absence at any
time on or after January 1, 2007 through and including December 31, 2009, the Service Percentage
shall equal the following quotient: (x) the number of calendar weeks the Participant was actively
working for the Company during the period January 1, 2007 through and including December 31, 2009,
divided by (y) 156 weeks, rounded to the nearest one-tenth of a percent.
2
(c) In the event a Change of Control occurs during the Service Period, the Service Percentage
for each Participant who is employed by the Company immediately prior to the Change of Control
shall be calculated as if the Participant had remained employed with the Company through and
including December 31, 2009. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger
Agreement will not constitute a Change in Control as defined in the Plan.
(d) For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” means voluntary termination of employment
with the Company or any Affiliate after the Participant has attained age 55 with at least ten years
of service to the Company.
(e) If the Participant’s employment by the Company shall be terminated during the Service
Period and prior to a Change in Control for any reason other than death, Disability or Retirement,
including without limitation a termination of employment for “cause” (as determined pursuant to
Section 13(b) of the Plan) or a voluntary termination of employment by the Participant, then this
Agreement and the Target Units covered hereby shall expire immediately upon such termination and
all of the Target Units shall be forfeited. The Participant shall thereafter have no rights under
this Agreement and no rights to receive the cash payment specified in Section 4 below. The Company
shall have the power in all cases to determine whether the Participant has been terminated for
cause and the date upon which such termination for cause occurs. Any such determination shall be
final, conclusive and binding upon the Participant.
(f) As of the Effective Time of the Merger, as such terms are defined in the Merger Agreement,
the number of Target Units will be adjusted as provided below, and each adjusted Target Unit will
represent one Parent Common Share instead of one share of Company Common Stock. The number of
notional Parent Common Shares subject to this Agreement as adjusted will be equal to the product of
(x) the number of notional shares of Company Common Stock underlying the Target Units immediately
prior to such adjustment multiplied by (y) the “Exchange Ratio”, as defined in the Merger
Agreement.
5. Settlement of Final Units in Cash.
(a) Except as set forth in Sections 4(b) and 4(c) below, as soon as administratively feasible
following the Maturity Date but in no event later than March 15, 2010, the Company shall pay a lump
sum cash amount to the Participant equal to (i) the average of the closing sales prices of one
share of Common Stock on each of the 20 consecutive trading days on which such prices are so quoted
immediately preceding the Maturity Date (the “Maturity Date Share Price”), multiplied by (ii) the
number of Final Units, minus applicable withholding. If a Participant’s employment is terminated
due to death, Disability or Retirement, the cash payment to the Participant for his or her Final Units shall be made as soon as administratively feasible following the Maturity Date but
in no event later than March 15, 2010.
3
(b) Except as provided in Section 4(c) below, if a Change of Control occurs during the Service
Period, then the Company shall, within 60 days following the Change of Control, pay a lump sum cash
amount to the Participant equal to (i) the closing sales price of one share of Common Stock on the
last trading day immediately preceding the date of the Change of Control, multiplied by (ii) the
number of Final Units, minus applicable withholding.
(c) If the Effective Time of the Merger occurs prior to the Maturity Date or prior to a Change
in Control, then (i) all references in this Section 5 to “Common Stock” shall be deemed to be a
reference to “Parent Common Shares,” (ii) the Maturity Date Share Price will be calculated by using
the average of the high and low prices quoted on The Toronto Stock Exchange for one Parent Common
Share (based on board lot prices) on each of the 20 consecutive trading days on which such prices
are so quoted immediately preceding the Maturity Date, with such prices converted into United
States dollars using the spot exchange rate reported in The Wall Street Journal, for each
applicable day, on the business day immediately following such day, and (iii) the price used for
purposes of Section 5(b)(i) above shall be the average of the high and low prices quoted on The
Toronto Stock Exchange for one Parent Common Share (based on board lot prices) on the last trading
day immediately preceding the date of the Change in Control, with such prices converted into United
States dollars as set forth in the preceding clause.
6. Withholding. The Company’s obligation to deliver the cash payment specified in
Section 4 hereof shall be subject to the Participant’s satisfaction of all applicable federal,
state, local and other income and employment tax withholding requirements as required by the Plan.
7. No Voting of Underlying Shares of Common Stock; No Dividends. Because no shares of
Common Stock or Parent Common Shares, as applicable, will be issued pursuant to this Agreement, the
Participant shall have no right to vote the underlying shares of Common Stock or Parent Common
Shares, as applicable, at any time or to receive any dividends thereon.
8. Terms and Conditions. The terms and conditions included in the Plan are
incorporated herein by reference, and to the extent that any conflict may exist between the terms
and conditions included in the Plan and the terms of this Agreement, the terms and conditions
included in the Plan shall control.
9. Transferability. Neither this Agreement nor the Target Units covered by this
Agreement nor the cash payable for the Final Units may be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached,
sold or otherwise transferred, encumbered or disposed of by the Participant at any time, except
that this Agreement, the Target Units and the cash payable for the Final Units may be transferred
by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a QDRO.
10. Administration and Interpretation. The authority to interpret and administer this
Agreement shall be vested in the Committee, and the Committee shall have all powers with respect to
this Agreement as it has with respect to the Plan. Any interpretation of the Committee of the
provisions of the Plan or this Agreement made in good faith shall be final and binding on all
parties.
11. Not an Employment Contract. The grant of the Target Units covered by this
Agreement does not confer on the Participant any right with respect to continuance of employment or
other Service with the Company or any Affiliate, nor shall it interfere in any way with any right
4
the Company or any Affiliate would otherwise have to terminate or modify the terms of the
Participant’s employment or other Service at anytime.
12. Notices. Any written notice provided for in this Agreement or the Plan shall be
in writing and shall be deemed sufficiently given if it is hand delivered, sent by fax or overnight
courier, or sent by postage paid first class mail. Notices sent by mail shall be deemed received
three business days after mailing but in no event later than the date of actual receipt. Notices
shall be directed, if to the Participant, at the Participant’s address indicated by the Company’s
records, or if to the Company, at the following address: TD Banknorth Inc., ▇.▇. ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇ Attention: General Counsel.
13. Amendment. Except as provided herein, this Agreement may not be amended or
otherwise modified unless evidenced in writing and signed by the Company and the Participant. In
the event that the Committee determines, after a review of Section 409A of the Code and all
applicable Internal Revenue Service guidance, that the Plan or any provision thereof or Award
thereunder should be amended to comply with Section 409A of the Code, the Committee may amend the
Plan and this Agreement to make any changes required to comply with Section 409A of the Code.
14. No Personal Liability. The Participant agrees that no member of the Committee or
of the Board or the Company or its Affiliates shall be personally liable for any actions taken in
good faith in connection with the Plan or this Agreement.
15. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Delaware.
[NOTE: Section 16 below is only for inclusion in grant agreements for the officers who have an
employment or retention agreement.]
16. Consent to Amended Definition. The Company and the Participant expressly agree
that, notwithstanding any provision in any employment or retention agreement between the Company
and the Participant to the contrary, the term “Change of Control” shall have the meaning set forth
in the Plan, and not as set forth in any employment or retention agreement between the Company and
the Participant. The Participant acknowledges that the definition of Change of Control included in
the Plan may in certain circumstances be less favorable to the Participant, and the Participant
agrees to such change. Except as expressly noted in this Section 16, this Agreement shall not by
implication or otherwise alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms of any
employment or retention agreement between the Company and the Participant.
