The LTIP Units are restricted membership units intended to qualify as profits interests for U.S. federal income tax purposes. They are scheduled to vest in stages, with 20% of the units vesting on each of the first five anniversaries of the grant date, subject to Mr. Pooler’s continued service on each vesting date.
After restrictions on applicable LTIP Units lapse, Mr. Pooler may convert vested LTIP Units into membership units of Cohen & Company, LLC on a one-for-one basis, consistent with the plan and the LLC agreement. Following any such conversion, he may cause the LLC to redeem those units for either cash or, at the company’s option, one share of Cohen & Co Inc. common stock for every ten units.

The award vests in five equal installments of 20% on each of the first through fifth anniversaries of the grant date, subject to his continued service.

Vested LTIP Units may be converted, at the holder’s election, into an equal number of regular membership units in the LLC, subject to vesting terms and a capital account limitation that ties conversion to the holder’s economic balance. LTIP Units are non-voting, non-redeemable until converted, and generally non-transferable without board consent, with limited exceptions for family and estate planning transfers. Aside from these changes, the updated LLC agreement does not materially alter prior terms.
