(ii) all or a portion of the Restricted Shares may be forfeited in accordance with Paragraph 4; and

	 	3.	Vesting.

 [Insert Vesting Schedule] 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Restricted Shares shall vest as follows: 

(i) all Restricted Shares shall vest in the event of the death or Disability of the Key Employee; 

(ii) all Restricted Shares shall vest in the event that the Key Employee is discharged by the Trust without Cause as defined in the Plan
and at the time of such discharge, the individual holding the title of Chief Executive Officer of the Trust is not the same individual that holds the title of Chief Executive Officer of the Trust as of the date of this Agreement; and 

(iii) all Restricted Shares shall vest if the Key Employee shall incur an Involuntary Termination (as defined in the Plan) during the

 (c) As soon as reasonably practicable after the

have paid such tax withholding amount in full. The Trust, at its sole discretion and on such terms and conditions determined by the Trust from time to time, may permit the Key Employee or the Key Employee’s legal representative to satisfy the
minimum tax withholding obligations through the sale of all or a portion of such Shares resulting from this Agreement or by a return to the Trust of a number of Shares having a fair market value equal to the withholding amount due. In the event Key
Employee or Key Employee’s legal representative, as applicable, fails to make

appropriate arrangements to satisfy tax and withholding obligations, the Trust may, in its sole discretion, satisfy such tax and withholding obligations by: (i) returning to the Trust all or
a portion of the Shares issued under this Agreement thereby withholding benefits under this Agreement; or (ii) withholding the required amounts from other amounts due the Key Employee or Key Employee’s legal representative, as applicable.
The Trust is authorized to pay over to the appropriate authority, all federal, state, county, city or other taxes as shall be required pursuant to any law or governmental regulation or ruling. 

4. Forfeiture. If there is a termination of the Key Employee’s Service with the Trust for any reason, then all rights
of the Key Employee to any and all then-remaining Restricted Shares which have not vested, after giving application to Paragraphs 3(a) and 3(b), shall terminate and be forfeited. Upon forfeiture of all or any portion of Restricted Shares, the
certificate(s) representing the forfeited Restricted Shares shall be cancelled or the forfeited Restricted Shares shall be removed from the Key Employee’s book entry account, returned to the Trust and canceled, as applicable. 

5. Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs and representatives of the Key
Employee and the assigns and successors of the Trust, but neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder shall be assignable or otherwise subject to hypothecation by the Key Employee. 

6. Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof and shall supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, between the parties with respect thereto. Subject to Paragraph 13, this Agreement may be amended at any time by written agreement of the parties hereto.

 7. Governing Law. This Agreement and its validity, interpretation, performance and enforcement shall be
governed by the laws of the State of Maryland other than the conflict of laws provisions of such laws, and shall be construed in accordance therewith.

such other provision shall to the full extent consistent with law continue in full force and effect. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid in part, such invalidity shall in no way affect the rest of such provision not held so
invalid, and the rest of such provision, together with all other provisions of this Agreement, shall to the full extent consistent with law continue in full force and effect. 
 9. Continued Employment. This Agreement shall not confer upon the Key Employee any right with respect to continuance of employment by the Trust.

provision should logically be construed to apply to the Key Employee’s executors or the administrators, or the person or persons to whom all or any portion of the Restricted Shares may be transferred by will or the laws of descent and
distribution, shall be deemed to include such person or persons. 
 11. Section 83(b) Election. The Key
Employee acknowledges that it is the Key Employee’s sole responsibility, and not the Trust’s, to file a timely election under section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, of 1986, as amended. The Key Employee acknowledges that he or she is
relying on his or her own advisors with respect to the decision as to whether or not to file any section 83(b) election. 

12. Taxes. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Key Employee shall be solely responsible and liable for the
satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may arise in connection with this Agreement (including any taxes arising under Section 409A of the Code).

associated documents in 

  
 Page 3 of 4









 
any manner that establishes an exemption from (or otherwise conforms them to) the requirements of Code Section 409A. If, for any reason including imprecision in drafting, the Agreement does
not accurately reflect its intended establishment of an exemption from (or compliance with) Code Section 409A, as demonstrated by consistent interpretations or other evidence of intent, the provision shall be considered ambiguous and shall be
interpreted by the Trust in a fashion consistent herewith, as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Trust. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Trust reserves the right to unilaterally amend this Agreement
without the consent of any Key Employee in order to accurately reflect its correct interpretation and operation to maintain an exemption from or compliance with Code Section 409A. 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trust has caused this Agreement to be duly executed effective as of the day and year first above written.
