RECITALS
A.The Employee is an employee of JBG SMITH Properties, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the “Company”) and provides services to JBG SMITH Properties LP, a Delaware limited partnership, through which the Company conducts substantially all of its operations (the “Partnership”).
B.In accordance with the JBG SMITH Properties 2017 Omnibus Share Plan, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Plan”), the Company desires, in connection with the employment of the Employee, to provide the Employee with an opportunity to acquire LTIP Units (as defined in the agreement of limited partnership of the Partnership, as amended (the “Partnership Agreement”)) having the rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption and conversion set forth herein in the plan and in the Partnership Agreement, and thereby provide additional incentive for the Employee to promote the progress and success of the business of the Company, the Partnership and its Subsidiaries. Upon the close of business on the Grant Date pursuant to this Performance LTIP Unit Agreement (this “Agreement”), the Employee shall receive the number of LTIP Units specified above (the “Award LTIP Units”), subject to the restrictions and conditions set forth herein, in the Plan and in the Partnership Agreement.
C.The exact number of LTIP Units earned under this award of OP Units (the “Award”) shall be determined following the conclusion of the Performance Period (or the Extended Performance Period, if applicable) based on the Company’s Total Shareholder Return and Relative Performance during the Performance Period (and on the Company’s Total Shareholder Return during the Extended Performance Period, if applicable) as provided herein. Any LTIP Units not earned following the conclusion of the Performance Period (or Extended Performance Period, if applicable) will be forfeited and any additional LTIP Units owed to the Employee shall be issued as soon as reasonably practical following the end of the Performance Period.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Company, the Partnership and the Employee agree as follows:

Upon execution of this Agreement by the Employee, the Partnership and the Company, the books and records of the Partnership shall reflect the issuance to the Employee of the Award LTIP Units. Thereupon, the Employee shall have all the rights of a Limited Partner of the Partnership with respect to a number of LTIP Units equal to the Award LTIP Units, as set forth in the Partnership Agreement, subject, however, to the restrictions and conditions specified in Section 3 below.
3.Vesting and Earning of Award LTIP Units.
(a)This Award is subject to performance vesting during the Performance Period and service vesting thereafter tied to Continuous Service of the Employee for one year after the last day of the Performance Period.

​




​

(b)The number of Award LTIP Units earned will be determined based on the Total Shareholder Return for each of the Company and the Peer Companies as of the Valuation Date, as follows:
	Relative Performance
	Percentage of Award LTIP Units Earned

	TSR equal to the 35th percentile of Peer Companies
	25%

	TSR equal to the 55th percentile of Peer Companies
	50%

	TSR equal to the 75th percentile of Peer Companies
	100%



​
The Award will be forfeited in its entirety if the Relative Performance is below the 35th percentile of Peer Companies or as provided in Section 3(e) hereof. If the Relative Performance is between the 35th percentile and 55th percentile of Peer Companies, or between the 55th percentile and 75th percentile of Peer Companies, the percentage of the Award LTIP Units earned will be determined using linear interpolation as between those tiers, respectively.
(c)As soon as practicable following the Valuation Date, the Committee shall:
(i)determine the number of LTIP Units earned by the Employee.
(ii)determine the number of additional LTIP Units that would have accumulated if the Employee had received all distributions paid by the Partnership with respect to earned LTIP Units determined pursuant to clause (i) (reduced by the distributions actually paid with respect to the Award LTIP Units) and such distributions had been invested in Common Units at a price equal to the fair market value of one Common Unit on the ex-dividend date (together with the earned LTIP Units determined pursuant to clause (i), the “Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee retains the discretion to pay out the value of the distributions determined pursuant to the preceding sentence in cash. In that event, the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent shall refer to the earned LTIP Units determined pursuant to clause (i) only.
If the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent is smaller than the number of Award LTIP Units previously issued to the Employee, then the Employee, as of the Valuation Date, shall forfeit a number of Award LTIP Units equal to the difference without payment of any consideration by the Partnership; thereafter the term Award LTIP Units will refer only to the Award LTIP Units that were not so forfeited and neither the Employee nor any of his or her successors, heirs, assigns, or personal representatives will thereafter have any further rights or interests in the LTIP Units that were so forfeited. If the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent is greater than the number of Award LTIP Units previously issued to the Employee, then, upon the performance of the calculations set forth in this Section 3(c):  (A) the Company shall cause the Partnership to issue to the Employee, as of the Valuation Date, a number of additional LTIP Units equal to the difference; (B) such additional LTIP Units shall be added to the Award LTIP Units previously issued, if any, and thereby become part of this Award (provided that such additional LTIP Units shall be treated as 

5
​




​

being issued as of the date they are actually issued for purposes of determining their holding period under the Partnership Agreement); (C) the Company and the Partnership shall take such corporate and partnership action as is necessary to accomplish the grant of such additional LTIP Units; and (D) thereafter the term Award LTIP Units will refer collectively to the Award LTIP Units, if any, issued prior to such additional grant plus such additional LTIP Units; provided that such issuance will be subject to the Employee confirming the truth and accuracy of the representations set forth in Section 13 hereof and executing and delivering such documents, comparable to the documents executed and delivered in connection with this Agreement, as the Company and/or the Partnership reasonably request in order to comply with all applicable legal requirements, including, without limitation, federal and state securities laws. If the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent is the same as the number of Award LTIP Units previously issued to the Employee, then there will be no change to the number of Award LTIP Units under this Award pursuant to this Section 3.
(d)If any of the Award LTIP Units have been earned based on performance as provided in Section 3(b), subject to Section 3(e) and Section 4 hereof, the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent shall become vested in the following amounts and at the following times, provided that the Continuous Service of the Employee continues through and on the applicable vesting date or the accelerated vesting date provided in Section 4 hereof, as applicable:
(i)50 percent of the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent shall become vested on the date the Committee determines the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent;
(ii)50 percent of the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent shall become vested on the first anniversary of the Valuation Date.
(e)​​
(i)Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, and subject to Section 5 hereof in the event of a Change of Control, if any of the Award LTIP Units have been earned based on Relative Performance as provided in Section 3(b) but the Company’s Total Shareholder Return is 0% or less with respect to the Performance Period, then 50% of the Award LTIP Units determined pursuant to Sections 3(b) and 3(c) shall automatically and without notice be forfeited as of the Valuation Date.  The remaining 50% of the Award LTIP Units determined pursuant to Sections 3(b) and 3(c) (the “Contingent Award LTIP Units”) may become earned and vested only if the Company’s Total Shareholder Return is positive within the Extended Performance Period.  For purposes of the preceding sentence, the Company’s Total Shareholder Return shall be measured at the end of each quarter during the Extended Performance Period, beginning with the first quarter following the end of the Performance Period, and it shall be measured on a cumulative basis from the beginning of the Performance Period through the end of each most recently completed quarter.  If the Company’s Total Shareholder Return is positive within the Extended Performance Period, then the Contingent Award LTIP Units shall become earned as soon as reasonably practicable, but no later than thirty (30) days, following the end of the first quarter during which the Company’s Total Shareholder Return is positive (such date, the “Extended Valuation Date”).  In addition, the Committee shall, on such Extended Valuation Date, determine the number of additional LTIP Units that would have accumulated if the Employee had received all distributions paid by the Partnership with respect to the Contingent Award LTIP Units (reduced by the distributions actually paid with respect to the Contingent Award LTIP Units) and such distributions had been 

6
​




​

invested in Common Units at a price equal to the fair market value of one Common Unit on the ex-dividend date, and such number of additional LTIP Units together with the Contingent Award LTIP Units shall be treated as the Award LTIPs for all purposes under this Agreement following the Extended Valuation Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee retains the discretion to pay out the value of the distributions determined pursuant to the preceding sentence in cash, in which case the Award LTIP Units shall refer to the number of Contingent Award LTIP Units only following the Extended Valuation Date.  Such Award LTIP Units shall become vested on the Extended Valuation Date.  
(ii)If the Company’s Total Shareholder Return is not positive within the Extended Performance Period, then notwithstanding Sections 3(b) and 3(c), the Award and the Contingent Award LTIP Units shall, without payment of any consideration by the Partnership, automatically and without notice be forfeited and be and become null and void as of the last day of the Extended Performance Period, and neither the Employee nor any of his or her successors, heirs, assigns, or personal representatives will thereafter have any further rights or interests in the Award or any Contingent Award LTIP Units.  
(f)Any Award LTIP Units that do not become vested pursuant to Section 3(d), Section 3(e) or Section 4 hereof shall, without payment of any consideration by the Partnership, automatically and without notice be forfeited and be and become null and void, and neither the Employee nor any of his or her successors, heirs, assigns, or personal representatives will thereafter have any further rights or interests in such unvested Award LTIP Units.
4.Termination of Employee’s Service Relationship; Death and Disability.
(a)If the Employee is a party to a Service Agreement that addresses treatment of the Award LTIP Units on a termination of employment and ceases to be an employee of the Company or any of its affiliates, the provisions of such Service Agreement that apply to the Award LTIP Unit will govern.  If the Employee is not a party to a Service Agreement that addresses treatment of the Award LTIP Unit on a termination of employment, Sections 4(b) through 4(d) hereof shall govern the treatment of the Employee’s Award LTIP Units exclusively.  In the event an entity ceases to be a Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company or the Partnership, such action shall be deemed to be a termination of employment of all employees of that entity for purposes of this Agreement, provided that the Committee or the Board, in its sole and absolute discretion, may make provision in such circumstances for lapse of forfeiture restrictions and/or accelerated vesting of some or all of the Employee’s remaining unvested Award LTIP Units that have not previously been forfeited, effective immediately prior to such event.  
(b)Except as otherwise provided in any Service Agreement between the Employee and the Company or its affiliate, in the event of a termination of the Employee’s Continuous Service by (A) the Employer without Cause after the first anniversary of the Grant Date, (B) the Employee for Good Reason after the first anniversary of the Grant Date, (C) the Employee’s death, or (D) the Employee’s Disability, in each case prior to the Valuation Date (each, a “Qualified Termination”), the Employee will not forfeit the Award LTIP Units upon such termination, but the following provisions of this Section 4(b) shall modify the determination and vesting of the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent for the Employee:
(i)the calculations provided in Section 3(c) hereof shall be performed as of the Valuation Date as if the Qualified Termination had not occurred;

7
​




​

(ii)the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent calculated pursuant to Section 3(c) shall be multiplied by the Partial Service Factor (with the resulting number being rounded to the nearest whole LTIP Unit or, in the case of 0.5 of a unit, up to the next whole unit), and such adjusted number of LTIP Units shall be deemed the Employee’s Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent for all purposes under this Agreement; and
(iii)the Employee’s Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent as adjusted pursuant to Section 4(b)(ii) above shall no longer be subject to forfeiture pursuant to Section 3(d) hereof but will be subject to Section 3(e) hereof; provided that, notwithstanding that no Continuous Service requirement pursuant to Section 3(d) hereof will apply to the Employee after the effective date of a Qualified Termination, except in the case of death or Disability, the Employee will not have the right to Transfer (as defined in Section 23 hereof) his or her Award LTIP Units or request redemption of his or her Common Units under the Partnership Agreement until such dates as of which his or her Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent, as adjusted pursuant to Section 4(b)(ii) above, would have become vested pursuant to Section 3(d), or become earned and vested pursuant to Section 3(e), if applicable, absent a Qualified Termination. For the avoidance of doubt, the purpose of this Section 4(b)(iii) is to prevent a situation where Employees who have had a Qualified Termination would be able to realize the value of their Award LTIP Units or Common Units (through Transfer or redemption) before other Employees whose Continuous Service continues through the applicable vesting dates set forth in Section 3(d) and Section 3(e) hereof.
(c)In the event of a Qualified Termination after the Valuation Date, all unvested Award LTIP Units that have not previously been forfeited pursuant to the calculations set forth in Section 3(c) hereof shall no longer be subject to forfeiture pursuant to Section 3(d) hereof but will be subject to Section 3(e) hereof; provided that, notwithstanding that no Continuous Service requirement pursuant to Section 3(d) hereof will apply to the Employee after the effective date of a Qualified Termination, except in the case of death or Disability, the Employee will not have the right to Transfer (as defined in Section 23 hereof) his or her Award LTIP Units or request redemption of his or her Common Units under the Partnership Agreement until such dates as of which his or her Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent would have become vested pursuant to Section 3(d) or become earned and vested pursuant to Section 3(e), if applicable, absent a Qualified Termination. For the avoidance of doubt, the purpose of this Section 4(c) is to prevent a situation where Employees who have had a Qualified Termination would be able to realize the value of their Award LTIP Units or Award Common Units (through Transfer or redemption) before other grantees of Earned LTIP awards whose Continuous Service continues through the applicable vesting dates set forth in Section 3(d) and Section 3(e) hereof.
(d)In the event of a termination of the Employee’s Continuous Service other than a Qualified Termination, all Award LTIP Units except for those that, as of the date at such termination, both (i) have ceased to be subject to forfeiture pursuant to Sections 3(b) and (c) hereof and (ii) are vested pursuant to Section 3(d) or 3(e) hereof shall, without payment of any consideration by the Partnership, automatically and without notice terminate, be forfeited and be and become null and void, and neither the Employee nor any of his or her successors, heirs, assigns, or personal representatives will thereafter have any further rights or interests in such Award LTIP Units.

​

5.Change in Control.
(a)If the Valuation Date occurs upon the date of a Change in Control, the provisions of Section 3 shall apply to determine the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent except that (i) Section 3(e) shall not apply, such that Relative Performance alone shall determine the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent, and (ii) if the Valuation Date occurs upon the date of a Change in Control on or before the first anniversary of the Effective Date, the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent shall be prorated to reflect the portion of the Performance Period that had elapsed as of the date of such Change in Control. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Valuation Date occurs upon the date of a Change in Control after the first anniversary of the Effective Date, the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent shall be determined as provided in the preceding sentence, but without proration of the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent.
(b)The number of Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent determined under Section 3, as modified by Section 5(a), shall remain subject to vesting tied to Continuous Employment as provided in Section 3(d), except that the Employee shall become fully vested in the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent if he is terminated without Cause or resigns for Good Reason within 18 months following the Change in Control.
(c)If the Change in Control occurs after the third anniversary of the Effective Date, and the Employee is terminated without Cause or resigns for Good Reason within 12 months following the Change in Control, the Employee shall become fully vested in any unvested portion of the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent.
(d)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent does not remain outstanding after a Change in Control, then the Employee shall become fully vested in the Earned LTIP Unit Equivalent upon the consummation of the Change in Control.
6.Distribution Participation Date and LTIP Unit Initial Sharing Percentage.
(a)The holder of the Award LTIP Units shall be entitled to receive distributions and allocations with respect to such Award LTIP Units to the extent provided for in the Partnership Agreement, including Exhibit E thereof, as modified hereby.
(b)The Distribution Participation Date with respect to such Award LTIP Units shall be the Valuation Date or, to the extent the Award LTIP Units become earned and vested during the Extended Performance Period as set forth in Section 3(e), the Extended Valuation Date. Accordingly, for the avoidance of doubt, from the Grant Date until the Distribution Participation Date, the holder of the Award LTIP Units shall only be entitled to certain distributions and allocations described in, and pursuant to, Sections 2.A. and 3 of Exhibit E to the Partnership Agreement with respect to an Award LTIP Unit in an amount equal to the product of the LTIP Unit Initial Sharing Percentage for such Award LTIP Unit and the amount otherwise distributable or allocable with respect to such Award LTIP Unit.
(c)The LTIP Unit Initial Sharing Percentage shall be ten percent (10%). For the avoidance of doubt, after the Valuation Date (or, to the extent the Award LTIP Units become earned and vested during the Extended Performance Period as set forth in Section 3(e), the Extended Valuation Date), Award LTIP Units, both vested and (until and unless forfeited pursuant to Section 3(f) or Section 4(d)) unvested, shall be entitled to receive the same distributions payable with respect to Common Units if the payment date for such 

9
​




​

distributions is after the Distribution Participation Date, even though the record date for such distributions is before the Distribution Participation Date.
(d)All distributions paid with respect to Award LTIP Units, both before and after the Distribution Participation Date, shall be fully vested and non-forfeitable when paid, whether or not the underlying LTIP Units have been earned based on performance or have become vested based on the passage of time as provided in Section 3 or Section 4 hereof.
7.Certain Adjustments. The LTIP Units shall be subject to adjustment as provided in the Partnership Agreement, and except as otherwise provided therein, if (i) the Company shall at any time be involved in a merger, consolidation, dissolution, liquidation, reorganization, exchange of shares, sale of all or substantially all of the assets or stock of the Company, spin-off of a Subsidiary, business unit or other transaction similar thereto, (ii) any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, stock combination, reclassification, recapitalization, significant repurchases of stock, or other similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or any extraordinary dividend or other distribution to holders of the Shares or Common Partnership Units other than regular dividends shall occur, or (iii) any other event shall occur that in each case in the good faith judgment of the Committee necessitates action by way of appropriate equitable adjustment in the terms of this Agreement, the Plan or the LTIP Units, then the Committee shall take such action as it deems necessary to maintain the Employee’s rights hereunder so that they are substantially proportionate to the rights existing under this Agreement and the terms of the LTIP Units prior to such event, including, without limitation:  (A) adjustments in the LTIP Units; and (B) substitution of other awards under the Plan or otherwise. In the event of any change in the outstanding Shares (or corresponding change in the Conversion Factor applicable to Common Partnership Units of the Partnership) by reason of any share dividend or split, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination or exchange of shares or other corporate change, or any distribution to common shareholders of the Company other than regular dividends, any Common Partnership Units, shares or other securities received by the Employee with respect to the applicable Award LTIP Unit which have not been earned or still subject to a risk of forfeiture will be subject to the same restrictions as the Award LTIP Units with respect to an equivalent number of shares or securities and shall be deposited with the Company.
8.Incorporation of Plan; Interpretation by Administrator. This Agreement is subject to the terms, conditions, limitations and definitions contained in the Plan, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement. In the event of any discrepancy or inconsistency between this Agreement and the Plan, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. The Administrator may make such rules and regulations and establish such procedures for the administration of this Agreement, which are consistent with the terms of this Agreement, as it deems appropriate.
9.Certificates; Legend. Each certificate, if any, issued in respect of the Restricted LTIP Units awarded under this Agreement shall be registered in the Employee’s name and held by the Company until the expiration of the applicable Vesting Period. If certificates representing the LTIP Units are issued by the Partnership, at the expiration of each Vesting Period, the Company shall deliver to the Employee (or, if applicable, to the Employee’s legal representatives, beneficiaries or heirs) certificates representing the number of LTIP Units that vested upon the expiration of such Vesting Period. The records of the Partnership and any other documentation evidencing the Award LTIP Units shall bear an appropriate legend, as determined by the Partnership in its sole discretion, to the 

10
​




​

effect that such LTIP Units are subject to restrictions as set forth herein, in the Plan and in the Partnership Agreement.
10.Tax Withholding. The Company or its applicable affiliate (including the Partnership) has the right to withhold from cash compensation payable to the Employee all applicable income and employment taxes due and owing at the time the applicable portion of the Restricted LTIP Units becomes includible in the Employee’s income (the “Withholding Amount”), and/or to delay delivery of Restricted LTIP Units until appropriate arrangements have been made for payment of such withholding. In the alternative, the Company has the right to retain and cancel, or sell or otherwise dispose of, such number of Restricted LTIP Units as have a market value (determined as of the date the applicable LTIP Units vest) approximately equal to the Withholding Amount, with any excess proceeds being paid to Employee.
11.Amendment; Modification. This Agreement may only be modified or amended in a writing signed by the parties hereto, provided that the Employee acknowledges that the Plan may be amended or discontinued in accordance with the provisions thereof and that this Agreement may be amended or canceled by the Administrator, on behalf of the Company and the Partnership, in each case for the purpose of satisfying changes in law or for any other lawful purpose, so long as no such action shall adversely affect the Employee’s rights under this Agreement without the Employee’s written consent. No promises, assurances, commitments, agreements, undertakings or representations, whether oral, written, electronic or otherwise, and whether express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof, have been made by the parties which are not set forth expressly in this Agreement. The failure of the Employee or the Company or the Partnership to insist upon strict compliance with any provision of this Agreement, or to assert any right the Employee or the Company or the Partnership, respectively, may have under this Agreement, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision or right or any other provision or right of this Agreement.
12.Complete Agreement. Other than as specifically stated herein or as otherwise set forth in any employment, change in control or other agreement or arrangement to which the Employee is a party which specifically refers to the Award LTIP Units or to the treatment of compensatory equity held by the Employee generally, this Agreement (together with those agreements and documents expressly referred to herein, for the purposes referred to herein) embody the complete and entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede any and all prior promises, assurances, commitments, agreements, undertakings or representations, whether oral, written, electronic or otherwise, and whether express or implied, which may relate to the subject matter hereof in any way.
13.Investment Representation; Registration. The Employee agrees that any resale of the LTIP Units received upon the expiration of the applicable Vesting Period (or the Shares) received upon redemption of or in exchange for LTIP Units or Common Units of the Partnership into which LTIP Units may have been converted) shall not occur during the “blackout periods” forbidding sales of Company securities, as set forth in the then-applicable Company employee manual or insider trading policy. In addition, any resale shall be made in compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act, or an applicable exemption therefrom, including, without limitation, the exemption provided by Rule 144 promulgated thereunder (or any successor rule). The Employee hereby makes the covenants, representations and warranties set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto as of the Grant Date. All of such covenants, warranties and representations shall survive the 

11
​

7.The Limited Partner acknowledges that the General Partner shall be a third-party beneficiary of the representations, covenants and agreements set forth in Sections 4 and 6 hereof. The Limited Partner agrees that it will transfer, whether by assignment or otherwise, Partnership Units only to the General Partner or to transferees that provide the Partnership and the General Partner with the representations and covenants set forth in Sections 4 and 6 hereof.
