 vesting requirement, in the discretion of the administrator. A participant may not sell or dispose of more than fifty percent of the shares acquired under a stock award before the earlier of the first anniversary of the date the stock award vests or the date the participant is no longer employed by or providing services to us, or the Operating Partnership or our Manager. A participant who receives a stock award will have all of the rights of a stockholder as to those shares, including, without limitation, voting rights and the right to receive distributions; provided that if a stock award does not vest solely on the basis of continued employment or service, dividends will be accumulated and paid only when, and to the extent that, the stock award vests. During the period when stock awards are non-transferable or forfeitable, (i) a participant is prohibited from selling, transferring, pledging, exchanging, hypothecating or otherwise disposing of the participant’s stock award shares, (ii) the Company will retain custody of any certificates and (iii) a participant must deliver a stock power to the Company for each stock award.

#### Stock Appreciation Rights
The Amended 2022 Incentive Plans authorize the grant of stock appreciation rights. A stock appreciation right provides the participant with the right to receive, upon exercise of the stock appreciation right, a payment in cash, shares of our Class A Common Stock or a combination of the two. The amount that the participant will receive upon exercise of the stock appreciation right generally will equal the excess of the fair market value of the shares of our Class A Common Stock on the date of exercise over the shares’ fair market value on the date of grant. Stock appreciation rights will become exercisable in accordance with terms determined by the administrator but generally will not become exercisable before the first anniversary of the grant, except in the event of the death or disability of the holder or a Change in Control of the Company, and further provided that awards for up to five percent (5%) of the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Amended 2022 Incentive Plans may be granted or awarded without regard to the one-year minimum vesting requirement, in the discretion of the administrator. A participant cannot sell or dispose of more than fifty percent of the shares acquired under a stock appreciation right before the earlier of the first anniversary of the date the stock appreciation right is
