          Aggregate Amount of Payments. Each of the persons named above shall be
eligible to receive a cash bonus equal to the individual's annual salary from
Hallwood Realty, LLC and Hallwood Commercial Real Estate, LLC for 2003 plus the
amount of bonuses and commissions the individual received from those entities
with respect to 2002.

                  Method of Determination and Payment.

          o    Fifty percent (50%) of the payments shall be made under this
               program at the same time that unitholders are entitled to receive
               payment as a result of the transaction and fifty percent (50%) be
               held in escrow for a period of twelve (12) months to ensure
               management continuity.

          o    If within twelve (12) months of a transaction, a participant is
               terminated by the successor company without cause (e.g., staff
               reduction), or if the participant is "constructively terminated"
               because of a detrimental change in responsibilities, a required
               relocation or a reduction in salary or benefits, the remaining
               award will be paid in full at the time of termination.

               o    Other exceptions to this policy will be made for retirement,
                    long-term disability, or death, in which case the award will
                    also be paid in full at the time of termination.

          o    Payment will be made under this program only if a transaction is
               completed by May 31, 2004.

          o    Payments may not exceed the IRC Section 280(g) statutory limits.

          Other Benefits. In addition to the indicated payments, for a period of
18 months, HRP will at its cost continue to provide the individual with all
health and insurance coverage that was provided at the time of employment.
Management estimates the cost of the health insurance and related benefits to be
approximately $10,000 per year per individual. The actual cost would vary
depending on the individual circumstance (e.g., level of benefits obtained, the
age of the individual, whether the individual is married, etc.).
