Date of a Performance Period, the Committee shall determine the size of the Performance Pool in accordance with the following steps: (a) determine the Relative Baseline and the Ending Value, (b) subtract the Relative Baseline from the Ending Value, (c) multiply the resulting amount by three percent (3%); provided that in no event shall the Performance Pool exceed an amount equal to the Dollar-Based Cap. If the Performance Pool is not a positive number, no amount shall be payable to any Participant with respect to such Performance Period. If the Performance Pool is a positive number, the Committee shall certify in writing the size of the Performance Pool.
2.3Allocation of Performance Pool. The Committee shall determine the Total Value of each Participant’s Award (or all Awards in case of multiple Awards to a particular Participant for the same Performance Period) with respect to the Performance Period for which a Performance Pool has been generated. The Total Value of a Senior Participant’s Award shall be the fixed percentage specified in his or her Award and, unless the Committee determines otherwise, if his or her award is forfeited prior to the Valuation Date, his or her portion of the Performance Pool shall be added to the portion available for Participants who are not Senior Participants (such portion, as so adjusted if applicable, the “Allocable Performance Pool”). The Total Value of the Award of each Participant who is not a Senior Participant shall be calculated by multiplying the Allocable Performance Pool by a fraction, (a) the numerator of which shall be the Participation Points held by such Participant with respect to such Performance Period (after giving effect to all Awards to such Participant with respect to the applicable Performance Period and any forfeitures of Awards by such Participant with respect to the applicable Performance Period) and (b) the denominator of which shall be the Total Participation Points outstanding for the Performance Period (after giving effect to all Awards to all Participants with respect to the applicable Performance Period and any forfeitures of Awards by any Participants with respect to the applicable Performance Period). The Total Value of each Award shall be bifurcated, concurrently with the Committee’s determination in accordance with this Section 2.3, into the Immediate Vesting Amount and the Deferred Vesting Amount.
2.4Payments to Participants.
(a)Subject to the Positive TSR requirement set forth in Section 2.4(c) and 2.4(d), the Immediate Vesting Amount shall be payable either in cash or in shares of Common Stock, LTIPs or other property, as determined by the Committee, to the Participant as soon as reasonably practicable, but no later than 75 days after the end of the Performance Period. If the Immediate Vesting Amount is paid out in accordance with the foregoing sentence in shares of Common Stock or LTIPs, (i) the Immediate Vesting Amount shall be converted into a fixed number of shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs) based on the Fair Market Value as of the Valuation Date, (ii) such shares (or LTIPs) shall be fully vested as of the date of issuance, and (ii) such shares (or LTIPs) shall not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, given away or in any other manner disposed of, or encumbered, whether voluntarily or by operation of law (each such action a “Transfer”) until after the third anniversary of the Valuation Date for the applicable Performance Period; provided, however, that (i) the Participant may elect to have a portion of such shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs) used to satisfy taxes with respect to such payments in accordance with Section 3.6 hereof and (ii) such shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs) may be Transferred prior to such date in accordance with the Company’s equity incentive plan pursuant to which such shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs) were granted, so long as the transferee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all applicable terms and conditions

ACTIVE/93648196.13 AM57
and that subsequent Transfers shall be prohibited except those in accordance with this Section 2.4(a). Any attempted Transfer of such shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs) not in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 2.4(a) shall be null and void, and the Company shall not reflect on its records any change in record ownership of any such shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs) as a result of any such Transfer, shall otherwise refuse to recognize any such Transfer and shall not in any way give effect to any such Transfers.
(b)Subject to the Positive TSR requirement set forth in Section 2.4(c) and 2.4(e), the Deferred Vesting Amount shall be payable either in cash or in shares of Common Stock, LTIPs, stock units of the Company (“RSUs”) or other property, as determined by the Committee and converted as described in this Section 2.4(b), to the Participant on the tenth anniversary of the Initial Date (“Tenth Anniversary”), subject to vesting based on the Participant’s continuous employment with the Company or a Related Company through the Tenth Anniversary or a Qualified Termination as provided in Section 2.5, except as provided in Section 2.6 in the event of a Change of Control. If the Immediate Vesting Amount is to be paid out in accordance with the foregoing sentence in shares of Common Stock, RSUs or LTIPs, (i) the Deferred Vesting Amount shall be converted into a fixed number of shares of Common Stock (RSUs or LTIPs) based on the Fair Market Value as of the Valuation Date and (ii) the Participant shall be entitled to receive each dividend or distribution declared and paid on shares of Common Stock (RSUs or LTIPs) after the Valuation Date with respect to such shares (RSUs or LTIPs) until and unless the Participant’s employment terminates for any reason other than a Qualified Termination and the Participant forfeits the Deferred Vesting Amount as provided in Section 2.5. If the Participant does not become vested pursuant to this Section 2.4(b), the Deferred Vesting Amount shall, without payment of any consideration by the Company, automatically and without notice be forfeited and be and become null and void, and neither the Participant nor any of his or her successors, heirs, assigns, or personal representatives will thereafter have any further rights or interests in the Deferred Vesting Amount, but the Participant shall retain all dividends and distributions he or she received on account thereof prior to the date of forfeiture.
(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to Section 2.6 below in the event of a Change of Control, if Positive TSR has not been achieved, then no payments to Participants on account of either the Immediate Vesting Amount or the Deferred Vesting Amount shall be made unless Positive TSR is achieved within seven (7) years following the end of the applicable Performance Period. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the Company’s Absolute Shareholder Return shall be measured at the end of each quarter, beginning with the first quarter following the end of the applicable Performance Period, and it shall be measured from the beginning of the applicable Performance Period through the end of such quarter. With respect to the Positive TSR requirement of this Section 2.4(c), the Participant’s employment with the Company or a Related Company need not continue past the Valuation Date to be entitled to delayed payment of the Immediate Vesting Amount.
(d)If Positive TSR is achieved within the seven (7) year period following the end of the applicable Performance Period, then the Immediate Vesting Amount shall be paid either in cash or in shares of Common Stock, LTIPs or other property, as determined by the Committee, to the Participant as soon as reasonably practicable, but no later than 75 days after the end of the quarter during which Positive TSR is achieved. If the Immediate Vesting Amount is paid out in shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs), it shall be converted into a fixed number of
14
121946-166515 EAS ACTIVE/85991108.7
ACTIVE/93648196.13 AM57
shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs) based on the Fair Market Value as of the last day of the quarter during which Positive TSR is achieved.
(e)If Positive TSR is achieved within the seven (7) year period following the end of the applicable Performance Period, then the Deferred Vesting Amount shall be paid in accordance with Section 2.4(b) above without further regard to the Company’s Absolute Shareholder Return being a positive or negative number as of the date such payment is due; provided that if the Immediate Vesting Amount is to be paid out in shares of Common Stock or LTIPs, (i) the Deferred Vesting Amount shall be converted into a fixed number of shares of Common Stock (RSUs or LTIPs) based on the Fair Market Value as of the last day of the quarter during which Positive TSR is achieved and (ii) the Participant shall be entitled to receive each dividend or distribution declared and paid on shares of Common Stock (RSUs or LTIPs) only after the last day of the quarter during which Positive TSR is achieved with respect to such shares (RSUs or LTIPs) (not the Valuation Date as provided in Section 2.4(b)), until and unless the Participant’s employment terminates for any reason other than a Qualified Termination and the Participant forfeits the Deferred Vesting Amount as provided in Section 2.5.
(f)Subject to Section 2.6 below in the event of a Change of Control, if Positive TSR is not achieved within the seven (7) year period following the end of the applicable Performance Period, then notwithstanding the determination of the Total Value of Awards pursuant to Sections 2.2 and 2.3, all Awards held by all Participants with respect to the applicable Performance Period shall, without payment of any consideration by the Company, automatically and without notice terminate, be forfeited and be and become null and void, and neither the Participant nor any of his or her successors, heirs, assigns, or personal representatives will thereafter have any further rights or interests in either the Immediate Vesting Amount or the Deferred Vesting Amount with respect to such Awards.
2.5Termination of Participant’s Employment; Death and Disability.
(a)If a Participant’s employment with the Company or a Related Company terminates, the provisions of this Section 2.5 shall govern the treatment of the Participant’s Award exclusively, regardless of the provision of any employment or other agreement to which the Participant is a party or any termination or severance policies of the Company then in effect, which shall be superseded by this 2018 Outperformance Plan such that, by way of illustration, any provisions thereof with respect to payout or the lapse of forfeiture restrictions relating to the Participant’s incentive or other compensation awards in the event of certain types of termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company (such as, for example, termination at the end of the term, termination without Cause by the employer) shall not be interpreted as requiring that any calculations set forth in Sections 2.2, 2.3 or 2.4 hereof be performed.
(b)In the event of termination of a Participant’s employment (i) by the Participant upon Retirement or (ii) by reason of the Participant’s death or Disability (each a “Qualified Termination,” it being understood that in the event of a Participant’s Good Works, Good Works Interruption shall be deemed a “Qualified Termination” under the circumstances described in clause (a) or (b) in the definition of Good Works) after the Initial Date, but prior to the Valuation Date with respect to the applicable Performance Period, then the Participant will retain his or her Participation Points with respect to such Performance Period, but all calculations
15
121946-166515 EAS ACTIVE/85991108.7
ACTIVE/93648196.13 AM57
and payments, if any, with respect to the Participant’s Award shall be made at the same time and on the same conditions set forth in Sections 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 hereof for all other Participants.
(c)In the event of a termination of a Participant’s employment for any reason other than a Qualified Termination (i) prior to the Valuation Date with respect to the applicable Performance Period or (ii) after the Valuation Date with respect to the applicable Performance Period but prior to the last day of the quarter during which Positive TSR is achieved, all Awards held by the Participant for such Performance Period (including both the Immediate Vesting Amount and the Deferred Vesting Amount) shall, without payment of any consideration by the Company, automatically and without notice terminate, be forfeited and be and become null and void, and neither the Participant nor any of his or her successors, heirs, assigns, or personal representatives will thereafter have any further rights or interests in such Awards, the Immediate Vesting Amount or the Deferred Vesting Amount, or any related Participation Points.
(d)With respect to the Immediate Vesting Amount, in the event of termination of a Participant’s employment after the Valuation Date with respect to the applicable Performance Period for any reason other than Qualified Termination by reason of death or Disability the Transfer restrictions provided in Section 2.4(a) shall continue in effect and shall terminate upon Qualified Termination by reason of death or Disability.
(e)With respect to the Deferred Vesting Amount, in the event of a Qualified Termination after the Valuation Date and prior to the applicable Tenth Anniversary, a Participant’s Deferred Vesting Amount shall no longer be subject to forfeiture pursuant to Section 2.4(b), but, notwithstanding that no continuous employment requirement applies, all calculations and payments, if any, with respect to the Participant’s Deferred Vesting Amount shall be made at the same time and on the same conditions set forth in Sections 2.2, 2.3, and 2.4, as applicable, for all other Participants. In the event the Committee elects to pay out the Deferred Vesting Amount in shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs) and the Company elects in its discretion to issue such shares (or LTIPs) to such Participant following his or her Qualified Termination, such shares (or LTIPs) shall not be Transferred until after the Tenth Anniversary; provided, however, that (i) the Participant may elect to have a portion of such shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs) used to satisfy taxes with respect to such payments in accordance with Section 3.6 hereof and (ii) such shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs) may be Transferred prior to such date in accordance with the Company’s equity incentive plan pursuant to which such shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs) were granted, so long as the transferee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all applicable terms and conditions and that subsequent Transfers shall be prohibited except those in accordance with this Section 2.5(e). Any attempted Transfer of such shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs) not in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 2.5(d) shall be null and void, and the Company shall not reflect on its records any change in record ownership of any such shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs) as a result of any such Transfer, shall otherwise refuse to recognize any such Transfer and shall not in any way give effect to any such Transfers
(f)With respect to the Deferred Vesting Amount, in the event of termination of a Participant’s employment for any reason other than a Qualified Termination after the Valuation Date with respect to the applicable Performance Period and prior to the Tenth Anniversary, the Deferred Vesting Amount with respect to all Awards held by the Participant for
16
121946-166515 EAS ACTIVE/85991108.7
ACTIVE/93648196.13 AM57
such Performance Period shall, without payment of any consideration by the Company, automatically and without notice terminate, be forfeited and be and become null and void, and neither the Participant nor any of his or her successors, heirs, assigns, or personal representatives will thereafter have any further rights or interests in the Deferred Vesting Amount with respect to all such Awards.
2.6Change of Control.
(a)In the event of a Change of Control, if the Change of Control occurs prior to the last day of the Applicable Performance Period (the “End Date”), the Committee will determine the size of the Performance Pool for each outstanding Performance Period in accordance with Section 2.2 and the Total Value of the Awards in accordance with Section 2.3 no later than the date of consummation of the Change of Control; provided that (i) the Positive TSR requirement set forth in Section 2.4(c), (d) or (e) shall no longer apply to either the Immediate Vesting Amount or the Deferred Vesting Amount and (ii) if the Valuation Date occurs upon the date of a Change of Control on or before the first anniversary of the Initial Date with respect to the applicable Performance Period, the Total Value of each Award for such Performance Period shall be prorated by multiplying it by a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the number of days elapsed between the Initial Date and the date of the Change of Control and (B) the denominator of which is 365. For avoidance of doubt, in the event of a Change of Control, the performance of all calculations and actions pursuant to Sections 2.2 and 2.3 hereof using the applicable Valuation Date shall be conditioned upon the final consummation of such Change of Control.
(b)With respect to the Immediate Vesting Amount, subject to Section 2.6(d):
(i)if the Change of Control occurs prior to the End Date, the Immediate Vesting Amount shall be payable to Participants who have not forfeited their Award pursuant to Section 2.5(c) in cash or shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs), as determined by the Committee in connection with such Change of Control, upon the earliest of:
(A)the effective date of the Participant’s Qualified Termination,
(B)the effective date of termination of the Participant’s employment by the Company (or its successor) or a Related Company without Cause or by the Participant with Good Reason if such termination occurs within 24 months following the Change of Control, or
(C)the End Date if the Participant remains employed by the Company (or its successor) or a Related Company until such date;
(ii)if the Change of Control occurs after the End Date but payment of the Immediate Vesting Amount has not been made as a result of the Positive TSR requirement set forth in Section 2.4(c) not being satisfied, the Immediate Vesting Amount shall be payable to Participants who have not forfeited their Award pursuant to Section 2.5(c) in cash or shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs), as determined by the Committee in

ACTIVE/93648196.13 AM57
connection with such Change of Control, as soon as reasonably practicable, but no later than 30 days following consummation of the Change of Control; and
(iii)if the Change of Control occurs after the End Date and payment of the Immediate Vesting Amount was made in shares of Common Stock (or LTIPs), the Participants shall be eligible to participate in the Change of Control transaction, if applicable, without regard to the Transfer restrictions provided in Section 2.4(a) and such restrictions shall no longer apply following consummation of the Change of Control.
(c)With respect to the Deferred Vesting Amount, subject to Section 2.6(d):
(i)if the Change of Control occurs prior to the End Date or occurs after the End Date but the Deferred Vesting Amount was deferred as a result of the Positive TSR requirement set forth in Section 2.4(c) not being satisfied, the Deferred Vesting Amount shall be payable, regardless of whether the positive TSR requirement is satisfied, to Participants who have not forfeited their Award pursuant to Section 2.5(c) in cash or shares of Common Stock (RSUs or LTIPs), as determined by the Committee in connection with a Change of Control, upon the earliest of:
(A)the effective date of the Participant’s Qualified Termination,
(B)the effective date of termination of the Participant’s employment by the Company (or its successor) or a Related Company without Cause or by the Participant with Good Reason if such termination occurs within 24 months following the Change of Control, or
(C)the Tenth Anniversary if the Participant remains employed by the Company (or its successor) or a Related Company until such date; and
(ii)if the Change of Control occurs after the End Date and the Positive TSR requirement was satisfied prior to the date of the Change of Control, the Deferred Vesting Amount shall be payable as provided in Section 2.6(c)(i)(A), (B) or (C), as applicable, to Participants who have not forfeited their Award pursuant to Section 2.5(c). Payment shall be in cash if the Committee so determined as of the Valuation Date in accordance with Section 2.4(b), otherwise it shall be in shares of Common Stock (RSUs or LTIPs), in which case the Participant shall be allowed to participate in the Change of Control transaction with respect to such shares (or LTIPs); provided that in the circumstances set forth in Section 2.6(c)(i)(A) or (B), any shares (or LTIPs) or securities of a successor company issued to the Participant shall no longer be subject to the Transfer restrictions provided in Section 2.4(e) following consummation of the Change of Control.
(d)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company’s successor does not irrevocably and unconditionally agree to assume the Awards in connection with the Change of Control, the Awards (including both the Immediate Vesting Amount and the Deferred Vesting Amount) shall be fully paid out to the Participants in cash as soon as reasonably practicable, but no later than 30 days following consummation of the Change of Control.

2.7LTIP Units. The Committee may award LTIPs to a Participant. In such event, the agreement granting such LTIPs shall set forth (i) whether and how the LTIPs will be subject to forfeiture to reflect the economic terms of this 2018 Outperformance Plan in light of the different award structure, (ii) whether LTIPs will be issued prior to or after the Valuation Date, it being understood that the Committee may decide to award LTIPs in multiple tranches with respect to a single Award to a Participant, and (iii) the methodology to be followed to convert the dollar amount of any Award determined under Section 2.3 or 2.6 to a number of LTIPs to be earned, or forfeited, as the case may be, and (iv) if such LTIPs constitute equity awards, under which equity incentive plan of the Company they are being issued, whether shares of Common Stock need to be reserved for issuance under such plan, and if so how that number will be determined, which may, depending on the circumstances, include calculations made or to be made under Sections 2.2 or 2.3, capital account allocations and/or balances under the applicable partnership agreement, and the conversion ratio between LTIPs (directly or indirectly) and Common Stock.
2.8Nature of Awards. The Awards granted under this 2018 Outperformance Plan shall be used solely as a device for the measurement and determination of certain amounts to be paid to each Participant as provided herein and such Awards shall not constitute or be treated as property or as a trust fund of any kind or as stock options or other form of equity or security of the Company or any Related Company. A Participant shall have only those rights set forth in this 2018 Outperformance Plan and the Participant’s Award Letter with respect to Awards granted to such Participant and shall have no ownership rights in the Company or any Related Company by virtue of having been granted Awards.
