The Partnership and the Recipient acknowledge and agree that the Profits Interest Units are hereby issued to the Recipient for the performance of services to or for the benefit of the Partnership and its Affiliates. If the Recipient is not already a partner of the Partnership pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement (defined therein as a “Partner”), the Partnership admits the Recipient as an “LTIP Unit Limited Partner” (as defined therein) and a Partner on the terms and conditions in this Agreement, the Plan and the Limited Partnership Agreement.

At the request of the Partnership, the Recipient shall execute the Limited Partnership Agreement or a counterpart signature page thereto.  

Rights as a Unitholder.  The Profits Interest Units shall be treated as a “profits interest” within the meaning of Revenue Procedure 93-27, and the Recipient shall be treated as having received the interest on the Grant Date as contemplated under Section 4 of Revenue Procedure 2001-43.  As the owner of the Profits Interest Units for income tax purposes, the Recipient shall take into account the Recipient’s distributive share of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit associated with the Profits Interest Units as determined in accordance with the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement and this Agreement.

Change in Capitalization.

(a)The number and kind of units issuable under this Agreement shall be proportionately adjusted for any non-reciprocal transaction between the Partnership and the holders of partnership interests of the Partnership that causes the per unit value of the Profits Interest Units subject to the Award to change, such as a unit dividend, unit split, spinoff or rights offering (each an “Equity Restructuring”). No fractional shares shall be issued in making such adjustment.
(b)In the event of a merger, consolidation, reorganization, extraordinary dividend, spin-off, sale of substantially all of the Partnership’s assets, other change in capital structure of the Partnership, tender offer for Profits Interest Units (“LTIP Units,” as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement), or a Change in Control, that in each case does not constitute an Equity Restructuring, the Committee shall take such action to make such adjustments with respect to the Profits Interest Units as the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines in good faith is necessary or appropriate and as is permitted by the Plan, including, without limitation, adjusting the number and class of units subject to the Award, substituting other securities, property or cash to replace the Award, all as determined in good faith by the Committee to have equivalent value to the Award, removing restrictions on the Award, or terminating the Award in exchange for the cash value determined in good faith by the Committee.  Any adjustment pursuant to this Section may provide, in the Committee’s discretion, for the elimination without payment of any fractional units that might otherwise be subject to the Award, but except as set forth in this Subsection and the Plan may not otherwise diminish the then value of the Award.
(c)All determinations and adjustments made by the Committee pursuant to this Section will be final and binding on the Recipient. Any action taken by the Committee need not treat all recipients of awards under the Plan equally.
(d)The existence of the Plan and the Profits Interest Unit Grant shall not affect the right or power of the Partnership to make or authorize any adjustment, reclassification, reorganization or other change in its capital or business structure, any merger or consolidation of the Partnership, any issue of debt or equity securities having preferences or priorities as to the Profits Interest Units or the rights thereof, the dissolution or liquidation of the Partnership, any sale or transfer of all or part of its business or assets, or any other corporate act or proceeding.

Governing Laws.  This Award shall be construed, administered and enforced according to the laws of the State of Maryland; provided, however, no Profits Interest Units shall be issued except, in the reasonable judgment of the Committee, in compliance with exemptions under applicable state securities laws of the state in which Recipient resides, and/or any other applicable securities laws.

Number of Shares Hypothetically Purchased with First Reinvested Dividend = (dividend declared to a shareholder of record during the Performance Period calculated on one share of Common Stock as of the first dividend declaration date during such period)/closing price per share of Common Stock on the last business day before the ex-dividend date)

not occur if during the Applicable Period and before the date of death, the Recipient breached any of the Restrictive Provisions or the Intellectual Property Agreement, and in such event, all Earned Unvested Profits Interest Units that have not previously vested shall be immediately forfeited as of the date of such breach.  

E.

Change in Control.  Notwithstanding Items A through D of this Vesting Schedule, if a Change in Control occurs on or after the Grant Date and on or before December 31, [YEAR], and (i) the Recipient remains an employee, director or consultant of the Company or an Affiliate during the entire Performance Period until the date of the Change in Control, or (ii) within sixty (60) days before the Change in Control, the Recipient incurs a Qualifying Termination (subject, in the case of such Qualifying Termination, to the requirement that the Recipient shall be required to execute within the twenty-one (21) day period provided therein (forty-five (45) days in the case of a group termination) and not revoke with the seven (7) day revocation period provided therein, the Release, which the Company shall provide to the Recipient as soon as feasible but not later than thirty (30) days following the Qualifying Termination) or ceases services as an employee, director or consultant of the Company and all Affiliates due to the Recipient’s death, the Recipient shall be 100% vested in, as of the date of the Change in Control, subject to the foregoing Release requirement if applicable:

1.

if the Change in Control occurs on or before December 31, 2024[YEAR], the number of Earned Unvested Profits Interest Units determined:

a.

in the TSR Chart if the applicable level of Total Shareholder Return for the full three year Performance Period (determined without regard to the shortening of the period as a result of the Change in Control) is achieved, or

b.

in the TSR Chart multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days elapsed in the Performance Period through the date of the Change in Control and the denominator of which is 1,095 (i.e., 365 x 3), if the applicable level of Total Shareholder Return has been achieved based on annualized performance to the date of the Change in Control but not for the full three year Performance Period (determined without regard to the shortening of the period as a result of the Change in Control), or

c.

by interpolation between the numbers in clause (a) and (b) above if the applicable level of Total Shareholder Return has been exceeded based on performance to the date of the Change in Control but is less than the applicable level for the full three year Performance Period (determined without regard to the shortening of the period as a result of the Change in Control), or

2.

if the Change in Control occurs after December 31, [YEAR], the number of Earned Unvested Profits Interest Units determined in the TSR Chart that were actually earned for the Performance Period which have not previously become Vested Profits Interest Units.


F.

Voluntary Resignation or Cause Termination.  Profits Interest Units which have not become Vested Profits Interest Units as of the Recipient’s cessation of services as an employee, director, or consultant of the Company and all Affiliates, except as provided in Items B through E of this Vesting Schedule, shall be forfeited.  Further, if (a) before a Change in Control, the Recipient ceases services as an employee, director or consultant of the Company and all Affiliates due to (I) the Recipient’s voluntary resignation without Good Reason (and not due to Disability or Retirement) or (II) the termination of the Recipient’s employment by the Company and its Affiliates for Cause, and (b) during the Applicable Period, the Recipient breaches the Restrictive Provisions or the Intellectual Property Agreement, the Board is permitted to require the Recipient to return to the Company any Profits Interest Units which vested within one year before the Recipient’s cessation of services, or if such Profits Interest Units had been sold in an arm’s length transaction or redeemed by the Recipient, the proceeds of such sale or redemption as determined by the Board.  The amount of the recovery shall be determined without regard to any taxes paid by or withheld from the wages of the Recipient unless the Board shall determine otherwise.

G.

General Forfeiture Provisions.  Profits Interest Units which have not become Earned Unvested Profits Interest Units as of the last day of the Performance Period shall be forfeited.  Profits Interest Units which have not become Vested Profits Interest Units as of the earliest of (i) December 31, [YEAR], (ii) except as provided in Items B through E of this Vesting Schedule, as of the Recipient’s cessation of services as an employee, director, or consultant of the Company and all Affiliates, or (iii) the date provided in Item F, shall be forfeited, and once a forfeiture occurs no provision of this Vesting Schedule shall be construed to reinstate the forfeiture.  The forfeitures and compensation recoveries provided for in this Agreement in connection with any breach during the Applicable Period by a Recipient of the Restrictive Provisions or the Intellectual Property Agreement shall not be the Company’s sole remedy, and nothing in this Agreement limits the Company’s right to seek damages, injunctive relief or other legal or equitable relief in case of any such breach; provided, however, if the Recipient is not a party to an employment agreement with the Company or an Affiliate as of the date of termination of employment and the Recipient ceases services as an employee, director or consultant of the Company and all Affiliates due to a Qualifying Termination, the Company’s sole remedy with respect to a breach by the Recipient during the Applicable Period of the Non-Competition Provisions will be the forfeiture provided in Item B of this Vesting Schedule; provided further, such limitation to the Company’s remedies shall not apply to the Recipient’s breach during the Applicable Period of the Non-Solicitation Provisions or the Intellectual Property Agreement.

H.

Fractional Units.  If any calculation in this Vesting Schedule results in a fractional number of Vested Profits Interest Units, the number of Vested Profits Interest Units shall be rounded to the closest whole number.
