DENVER-Top executives of Denver-based Apartment Investment and Management will be able to double the amount they can contribute to an investment program, if the board votes to modify and continue what is known as its High Performance Unit program.

It’s sort of like a REIT’s version of an options plan, Pat Foye, spokesman for AIMCO tells GlobeSt.com. “But it’s not an option program, because an option is a freebie,” Foye explains. “If you have options, and your stock goes up, you’re a winner. Under this program, the executives must write a check. If the stock does not perform he loses all of the money. But if he exceeds stated thresholds, he gets more units. The units are sort of a proxy for common stock.”

Under the current plan, senior management can contribute up to $2 million. The new plan may open doors for contributions up to $4 million, although the final amount remains undetermined at this point.
