6.1. GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK AND RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS. The Board is authorized to make Awards of Restricted Stock or Restricted
Stock Units to Participants in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as may be selected by the Board and set forth in an Award Certificate setting forth the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to the Award. 

6.2. ISSUANCE AND RESTRICTIONS. Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to such restrictions on transferability and
other restrictions as the Board may impose (including, for example, limitations on the right to vote Restricted Stock or the right to receive dividends on the Restricted Stock). These restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such
times, under such circumstances, in such installments, as the Board determines at the time of the grant of the Award or thereafter. Except as otherwise provided in an Award Certificate or any special Plan document governing an Award, a Participant
shall have none of the rights of a stockholder with respect to Restricted Stock Units until such time as Shares of Stock are paid in settlement of such Awards. 

6.3 DIVIDENDS ON RESTRICTED STOCK. In the case of Restricted Stock, the Board may provide that ordinary cash dividends declared on the
Shares before they are vested (i) will be paid or distributed to the Participant as accrued (in which case, such dividends must be paid or distributed no later than the 15th day of the 3rd month following the later of (A) the calendar year in which the corresponding dividends were paid to stockholders, or (B) the first calendar year in which the Participant’s right to
such dividends is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture), (ii) will be forfeited; (iii) will be deemed to have been reinvested in additional Shares or otherwise reinvested (subject to Share availability under Section 5.1
hereof and subject to the same vesting provisions as provided for the host Award); or (iv) will be credited by the Company to an account for the Participant and accumulated without interest until the date upon which the host Award becomes
vested, and any dividends accrued with respect to forfeited Restricted Stock will be reconveyed to the Company without further consideration or any act or action by the Participant. 

6.4. FORFEITURE. Subject to the terms of the Award Certificate and except as otherwise determined by the Board at the time of the grant
of the Award or thereafter, upon termination of Continuous Service during the applicable restriction period, Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units that are at that time subject to restrictions shall be forfeited. 

6.5. DELIVERY OF RESTRICTED STOCK. Shares of Restricted Stock shall be delivered to the Participant at the Grant Date either by
book-entry registration or by delivering to the Participant, or a custodian or escrow agent (including, without limitation, the Company) designated by the Board, a stock certificate or certificates registered in the name of the Participant. If
physical certificates representing shares of Restricted Stock are registered in the name of the Participant, such certificates must bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock.

 DIVIDEND
EQUIVALENTS 
 7.1. GRANT OF DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS. The Board is authorized to grant Dividend Equivalents with respect to
Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder, subject to such terms and conditions as may be selected by the Board. Dividend Equivalents shall entitle the Participant to receive 

  
 - 6 - 

 
payments equal to ordinary cash dividends or distributions with respect to all or a portion of the number of Shares subject to Restricted Stock Unit Award, as determined by the Board. The Board
may provide that Dividend Equivalents (i) will be paid or distributed to the Participant as accrued (in which case, such Dividend Equivalents must be paid or distributed no later than the
15th day of the 3rd month following the later of (A) the calendar year in which the corresponding dividends were paid to stockholders, or
(B) the first calendar year in which the Participant’s right to such Dividend Equivalents is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture), (ii) will be deemed to have been reinvested in additional Shares or otherwise reinvested,
which shall be subject to the same vesting provisions as provided for the host Award, or (iii) will be credited by the Company to an account for the Participant and accumulated without interest until the date upon which the host Award becomes
vested, and any Dividend Equivalents accrued with respect to forfeited Awards will be reconveyed to the Company without further consideration or any act or action by the Participant. 

ARTICLE 8 
 PROVISIONS
APPLICABLE TO AWARDS 
 8.1. ELIGIBILITY. Awards may be granted only to Eligible Participants. 

8.2. AWARD CERTIFICATES. Each Award shall be evidenced by an Award Certificate. Each Award Certificate shall include such provisions,
not inconsistent with the Plan, as may be specified by the Board. 
 8.3. FORM OF PAYMENT FOR AWARDS. At the discretion of the Board,
payment of Awards may be made in cash, Stock, a combination of cash and Stock, or any other form of property as the Board shall determine. In addition, payment of Awards may include such terms, conditions, restrictions and/or limitations, if any, as
the Board deems appropriate, including, in the case of Awards paid in the form of Stock, restrictions on transfer and forfeiture provisions. 

8.4. LIMITS ON TRANSFER. No right or interest of a Participant in any restricted Award may be pledged, encumbered, or hypothecated to
or in favor of any party, or shall be subject to any lien, obligation, or liability of such Participant to any other party. No restricted Award shall be assignable or transferable by a Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution; provided, however, that the Board may (but need not) permit other transfers (other than transfers for value) where the Board concludes that such transferability (i) does not result in accelerated taxation, and
(ii) is otherwise appropriate and desirable, taking into account any factors deemed relevant, including without limitation, state or federal tax or securities laws applicable to transferable Awards. 

8.5. BENEFICIARIES. Notwithstanding Section 8.4, a Participant may, in the manner determined by the Board, designate a beneficiary
to exercise the rights of the Participant and to receive any distribution with respect to any Award upon the Participant’s death. A beneficiary, legal guardian, legal representative, or other person claiming any rights under the Plan is subject
to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Certificate applicable to the Participant, except to the extent the Plan and Award Certificate otherwise provide, and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Board.
If no beneficiary has been designated or survives the Participant, any payment due to the Participant shall be made to the Participant’s estate. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by a Participant, in
the manner provided by the Company, at any time provided the change or revocation is filed with the Company. 
 8.6. STOCK TRADING
RESTRICTIONS. All Stock issuable under the Plan is subject to any stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Board deems necessary or advisable to comply with federal or state securities laws, rules and regulations and the rules of any
national securities exchange or 

  
 - 7 - 

 
automated quotation system on which the Stock is listed, quoted, or traded. The Board may place legends on any Stock certificate or issue instructions to the transfer agent to reference
restrictions applicable to the Stock. 
 8.7. DISCRETION TO ACCELERATE VESTING. The Board may in its sole discretion at any time
determine that all or a part of the restrictions on all or a portion of the Participant’s outstanding Awards shall lapse, as of such date as the Board may, in its sole discretion, declare. The Board may discriminate among Participants and among
Awards granted to a Participant in exercising its discretion pursuant to this Section 8.7. 
 8.8. FORFEITURE EVENTS. Awards
under the Plan shall be subject to any compensation recoupment policy that the Company may adopt from time to time that is applicable by its terms to the Participant. In addition, the Board may specify in an Award Certificate that the
Participant’s rights, payments and benefits with respect to an Award shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, in addition to any otherwise applicable vesting
conditions of an Award. Such events may include, but shall not be limited to, (i) violation of material Company or Affiliate policies, (ii) breach of noncompetition, confidentiality or other restrictive covenants that may apply to the
Participant, or (iii) other conduct by the Participant that is detrimental to the business or reputation of the Company or any Affiliate. 

ARTICLE 9 
 CHANGES IN
CAPITAL STRUCTURE 
 9.1. MANDATORY ADJUSTMENTS. In the event of a nonreciprocal transaction between the Company and its
stockholders that causes the per-share value of the Stock to change (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, spin-off, rights offering, or large
nonrecurring cash dividend), the Board shall make such adjustments to the Plan and Awards as it deems necessary, in its sole discretion, to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights immediately resulting from such transaction. Action by the Board
may include: (i) adjustment of the number and kind of shares that may be delivered under the Plan; (ii) adjustment of the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding Awards; and (iii) any other adjustments that the Board
determines to be equitable. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event of a subdivision of the outstanding Stock (stock-split), a declaration of a dividend payable in Shares, or a combination or consolidation of the outstanding Stock into a lesser
number of Shares, the authorization limit under Section 5.1 shall automatically be adjusted proportionately, and the Shares then subject to each Award shall automatically, without the necessity for any additional action by the Board, be
adjusted proportionately without any change in the aggregate purchase price therefor. 
 9.2 DISCRETIONARY ADJUSTMENTS. Upon the
occurrence or in anticipation of any corporate event or transaction involving the Company (including, without limitation, any merger, reorganization, recapitalization, combination or exchange of shares, or any transaction described in
Section 9.1), the Board may, in its sole discretion, provide (i) that Awards will be settled in cash rather than Stock, (ii) that Awards will become immediately vested and non-forfeitable,
(iii) that Awards will be assumed by another party to a transaction or otherwise be equitably converted or substituted in connection with such transaction, or (iv) any combination of the foregoing. The Board’s determination need not
be uniform and may be different for different Participants whether or not such Participants are similarly situated. 
 9.3 GENERAL.
Any discretionary adjustments made pursuant to this Article 9 shall be subject to the provisions of Section 10.2.

 ARTICLE 10 

AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION 

10.1. AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION. The Board or the Board may, at any time and from time to time, amend, modify or
terminate the Plan without stockholder approval; provided, however, that if an amendment to the Plan would, in the reasonable opinion of the Board constitute a material change requiring stockholder approval under applicable laws,
policies or regulations, then such amendment shall be subject to stockholder approval; and provided, further, that the Board may condition any other amendment or modification on the approval of stockholders of the Company for any
reason. 
 10.2. AWARDS PREVIOUSLY GRANTED. At any time and from time to time, the Board may amend, modify or terminate any
outstanding Award without approval of the Participant; provided, however: 
 (a) Subject to the terms of the
applicable Award Certificate, such amendment, modification or termination shall not, without the Participant’s consent, reduce or diminish the value of such Award determined as if the Award had been exercised, vested, cashed in or otherwise
settled on the date of such amendment or termination; 
 (b) No termination, amendment, or modification of the Plan shall
adversely affect any Award previously granted under the Plan, without the written consent of the Participant affected thereby. An outstanding Award shall not be deemed to be “adversely affected” by a Plan amendment if such amendment would
not reduce or diminish the value of such Award determined as if the Award had been exercised, vested, cashed in or otherwise settled on the date of such amendment. 

10.3. COMPLIANCE AMENDMENTS. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or in any Award Certificate to the contrary, the Board may amend the
Plan or an Award Certificate, to take effect retroactively or otherwise, as deemed necessary or advisable for the purpose of conforming the Plan or Award Certificate to any present or future law relating to plans of this or similar nature
(including, but not limited to, Section 409A of the Code), and to the administrative regulations and rulings promulgated thereunder. By accepting an Award under this Plan, a Participant agrees to any amendment made pursuant to this
Section 10.3 to any Award granted under the Plan without further consideration or action. 
 ARTICLE 11 

GENERAL PROVISIONS 
 11.1.
RIGHTS OF PARTICIPANTS. 
 (a) No Participant or any Eligible Participant shall have any claim to be granted any Award
under the Plan. Neither the Company, its Affiliates nor the Board is obligated to treat Participants or Eligible Participants uniformly, and determinations made under the Plan may be made by the Board selectively among Eligible Participants who
receive, or are eligible to receive, Awards (whether or not such Eligible Participants are similarly situated). 
 (b)
Nothing in the Plan, any Award Certificate or any other document or statement made with respect to the Plan, shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate any Participant’s service as a
director, at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue as a director of the Company or any Affiliate, whether for the duration of a Participant’s Award or otherwise. 

  
 - 9 - 

 (c) Neither an Award nor any benefits arising under this Plan shall constitute an
employment contract with the Company or any Affiliate and, accordingly, subject to Article 10, this Plan and the benefits hereunder may be terminated at any time in the sole and exclusive discretion of the Board without giving rise to any liability
on the part of the Company or an of its Affiliates. 
 (d) No Award gives a Participant any of the rights of a stockholder of
the Company unless and until Shares are in fact issued to such person in connection with such Award. 
 11.2. WITHHOLDING. The
Company or any Affiliate shall have the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company or such Affiliate, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, and local taxes (including the
Participant’s FICA obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect to any exercise, lapse of restriction or other taxable event arising as a result of the Plan. The obligations of the Company under the Plan will be conditioned on such
payment or arrangements and the Company or such Affiliate will, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Participant. Unless otherwise determined by the Board at the
time the Award is granted or thereafter, any such withholding requirement may be satisfied, in whole or in part, by withholding from the Award Shares having a fair market value (as determined by the Company) on the date of withholding equal to the
amount required to be withheld in accordance with applicable tax requirements (up to the maximum individual statutory rate in the applicable jurisdiction as may be permitted under then-current accounting principles to qualify for equity
classification), all in accordance with such procedures as the Board establishes. All such elections shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Board, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. 

11.3. SPECIAL PROVISIONS RELATED TO SECTION 409A OF THE CODE. 

(a) General. It is intended that the payments and benefits provided under the Plan and any Award shall either be exempt from the
application of, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. The Plan and all Award Certificates shall be construed in a manner that effects such intent. Nevertheless, the tax treatment of the benefits provided under the Plan
or any Award is not warranted or guaranteed. Neither the Company, its Affiliates nor their respective directors, officers or advisers (other than in his or her capacity as a Participant) shall be held liable for any taxes, interest, penalties or
other monetary amounts owed by any Participant or other taxpayer as a result of the Plan or any Award. 
 (b) Definitional
Restrictions. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or in any Award Certificate to the contrary, to the extent that any amount or benefit that would constitute non-exempt “deferred compensation”
for purposes of Section 409A of the Code (“Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation”) would otherwise be payable or distributable, or a different form of payment (e.g., lump sum or installment) of such Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation would be effected, under the Plan or any Award Certificate by reason of the occurrence of a Change in Control, or the Participant’s Disability or separation from service, such Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation will not be payable or distributable to the Participant, and/or such different form of payment will not be effected, by reason of such circumstance unless the circumstances giving
rise to such Change in Control, Disability or separation from service meet any description or definition of “change in control event”, “disability” or “separation from service”, as the case may be, in Section 409A
of the Code and applicable regulations (without giving effect to any elective provisions that may be available under such definition). This provision does not affect the dollar amount or prohibit the vesting of any Award upon a Change in
Control, Disability or separation from service, however defined. If this provision prevents the payment or distribution of any amount or benefit, or the application of a different form of payment of any amount or benefit, such payment or
distribution shall be made at the time and in the form that would have applied absent the non-409A-conforming event. 

  
 - 10 - 

 11.4. UNFUNDED STATUS OF AWARDS. The Plan is intended to be an “unfunded” plan
for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award Certificate shall give the Participant any rights that are greater than those of a
general creditor of the Company or any Affiliate. In its sole discretion, the Board may authorize the creation of grantor trusts or other arrangements to meet the obligations created under the Plan to deliver Shares or payments in lieu of Shares or
with respect to Awards. This Plan is not intended to be subject to ERISA. 
 11.5. EXPENSES. The expenses of administering the Plan
shall be borne by the Company and its Affiliates. 
 11.6. TITLES AND HEADINGS. The titles and headings of the Sections in the Plan
are for convenience of reference only, and in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control. 

11.7. GENDER AND NUMBER. Except where otherwise indicated by the context, any masculine term used herein also shall include the
feminine; the plural shall include the singular and the singular shall include the plural. 
 11.8. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional
Shares shall be issued and the Board shall determine, in its discretion, whether cash shall be given in lieu of fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares shall be eliminated by rounding up or down. 

11.9. GOVERNMENT AND OTHER REGULATIONS. 

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, no Participant who acquires Shares pursuant to the Plan may, during any
period of time that such Participant is an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission under the 1933 Act), sell such Shares, unless such offer and sale is made
(i) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, which is current and includes the Shares to be sold, or (ii) pursuant to an appropriate exemption from the registration requirement of the 1933 Act, such as that set
forth in Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, if at any time the
Board shall determine that the registration, listing or qualification of the Shares covered by an Award upon any securities exchange or under any foreign, federal, state or local law or practice, or the consent or approval of any governmental
regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the granting of such Award or the purchase or receipt of Shares thereunder, no Shares may be purchased, delivered or received pursuant to such Award unless and
until such registration, listing, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any condition not acceptable to the Board. Any Participant receiving or purchasing Shares pursuant to an Award shall make such
representations and agreements and furnish such information as the Board may request to assure compliance with the foregoing or any other applicable legal requirements. The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate or
certificates for Shares under the Plan prior to the Board’s determination that all related requirements have been fulfilled. The Company shall in no event be obligated to register any securities pursuant to the 1933 Act or applicable state or
foreign law or to take any other action in order to cause the issuance and delivery of such certificates to comply with any such law, regulation or requirement.

 11.10. GOVERNING LAW. To the extent not governed by federal law, the Plan and all Award
Certificates shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Maryland. 
 11.11. SEVERABILITY. In the
event that any provision of this Plan is found to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable under any applicable law, such invalidity or unenforceability will not be construed as rendering any other provisions contained herein as invalid or
unenforceable, and all such other provisions will be given full force and effect to the same extent as though the invalid or unenforceable provision was not contained herein. 

11.12. NO LIMITATIONS ON RIGHTS OF COMPANY. The grant of any Award shall not in any way affect the right or power of the Company to
make adjustments, reclassification or changes in its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets. The Plan shall not restrict the authority of the Company,
for proper corporate purposes, to draft or assume awards, other than under the Plan, to or with respect to any person. If the Board so directs, the Company may issue or transfer Shares to an Affiliate, for such lawful consideration as the Board may
specify, upon the condition or understanding that the Affiliate will transfer such Shares to a Participant in accordance with the terms of an Award granted to such Participant and specified by the Board pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. 

The foregoing is hereby acknowledged as being the Starwood Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. Independent Director Restricted Share Plan as

 TERMS AND CONDITIONS 

1. Restrictions. The Shares are subject to each of the following restrictions. “Restricted Shares” mean those Shares that are subject
to the restrictions imposed hereunder which restrictions have not then expired or terminated. Restricted Shares may not be sold, transferred, exchanged, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered to or in favor of any party, or be
subjected to any lien, obligation or liability of Grantee to any other party. If Grantee’s Continuous Service with the Company terminates for any reason other than as set forth in subsection (b) of Section 2 hereof, then Grantee shall
forfeit all of Grantee’s right, title and interest in and to the Restricted Shares as of the date of termination, and such Restricted Shares shall revert to the Company immediately following the event of forfeiture. The restrictions imposed
under this Section 1 shall apply to all Shares or other securities issued with respect to Restricted Shares hereunder in connection with any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, stock dividend or other change in corporate
structure affecting the Shares. 
 2. Expiration and Termination of Restrictions. The restrictions imposed under Section 1 will expire on the
earliest to occur of the following (the period prior to such expiration being referred to herein as the “Restricted Period”): 
  

	(a)	as to the number of the Restricted Shares specified on the cover page hereof, on the respective dates specified on such cover page, subject to Grantee’s Continuous Service on each vesting date; 

 

	(b)	as to all of the Restricted Shares, upon termination of Grantee’s Continuous Service by the Company by reason of Grantee’s death or Disability; or 

 

	(c)	as to all of the Restricted Shares, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control. 

 3. Delivery of Shares.
The Shares will be registered in the name of Grantee as of the Grant Date and may be held by the Company during the Restricted Period in certificated or uncertificated form. Any certificate for the Restricted Shares issued during the Restricted
Period shall bear a legend in substantially the following form (in addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws): “This certificate and the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the terms and conditions
(including forfeiture and restrictions against transfer) contained in a Restricted Stock Award Certificate between the registered owner of the shares represented hereby and Starwood Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. Release from such terms and
conditions shall be made only in accordance with the provisions of such Certificate, copies of which are on file in the offices of Starwood Real Estate Income Trust, Inc.” Stock certificates for the Shares, without the first above legend, shall
be delivered to Grantee or Grantee’s designee upon request of Grantee after the expiration of the Restricted Period, but delivery may be postponed for such period as may be required for the Company with reasonable diligence to comply, if deemed
advisable by the Company, with registration requirements under the 1933 Act, listing requirements under the rules of any securities exchange, and requirements under any other law or regulation applicable to the issuance or transfer of the Shares.

 4. Voting Rights. Grantee, as beneficial owner of the Shares, shall have full voting rights with respect to the Shares during and after the
Restricted Period. 
 5. Dividend Rights. Grantee shall accrue cash and non-cash dividends, if any, paid with
respect to the Restricted Shares, but the payment of such dividends shall be deferred and held (without interest) by the Company for the account of Grantee until the expiration of the Restricted Period. During the Restricted Period, such dividends
shall be subject to the same vesting restrictions imposed under Section 2 as the Restricted Shares to which they relate. Accrued dividends deferred and held pursuant to the foregoing provision shall be paid by the Company to the Grantee
promptly upon the expiration of the Restricted Period (and in any event within thirty (30) days of the date of such expiration). 
 6. No Right of
Continued Service. Nothing in this Award Certificate shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate Grantee’s service at any time, nor confer upon Grantee any right to continue providing services to the
Company. 
 7. Payment of Taxes. Upon issuance of the Shares hereunder, Grantee may make an election to be taxed upon such award under
Section 83(b) of the Code (an “83(b) Election”). To effect such 83(b) Election, Grantee may file an appropriate election with Internal Revenue Service within 30 days after the Grant Date and otherwise in accordance with
applicable Treasury Regulations. 
 8. Plan Controls. The terms contained in the Plan are incorporated into and made a part of this Award Certificate
and this Award Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Plan. In the event of any actual or alleged conflict between the provisions of the Plan and the provisions of this Award Certificate, the provisions of the Plan
shall be controlling and determinative.

 9. Successors. This Award Certificate shall be binding upon any successor of the Company, in accordance
with the terms of this Award Certificate and the Plan. 
 10. Severability. If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Award Certificate
