AMENDMENT TO THE

HEALTHCARE REALTY TRUST INCORPORATED

2007 EMPLOYEES STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

     WHEREAS, Healthcare Realty Trust Incorporated (the “Company”) has previously established and
currently maintains the Healthcare Realty Trust Incorporated 2007 Employees Stock Incentive Plan
(the “Plan”) for the benefit of a select group of management and highly compensated employees; and

     WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 11.2 of the Plan, the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors of the Company (the “Committee”) may permit a Plan Participant to defer the receipt of
payment of cash or delivery of shares of Common Stock of the Company that would otherwise be due to
such Participant by virtue of the exercise of a right or the satisfaction of vesting or other
conditions with respect to an Award under the Plan; and

     WHEREAS, the Plan is a nonqualified deferred compensation plan, as such term is defined in
Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder;
and

     WHEREAS, pursuant to pertinent transitional relief issued by the Internal Revenue Service, the
Plan may be amended to provide for new payment elections with respect to the time or form of
payment of certain deferred compensation without such election being treated as an impermissible
change in time or form of payment or an acceleration of payment under Code Section 409A; and

     WHEREAS, the Board of Directors has authorized and wishes so to amend the Plan;

     NOW, THEREFORE, the Plan is hereby amended in the following respects, effective as of December
21, 2007:

     1. Section 11.2 of the Plan, “Deferrals of Payment,” is amended to add the following
provision:

     A Participant may defer the receipt of delivery of shares of Common Stock that
would otherwise be due to the Participant by virtue of the satisfaction of vesting
with respect to an Award by agreeing to a new payment election on or before December
31, 2008, with respect to the time of payment of such amounts. Such election shall
not be treated as a change in the time or form of payment under section 409A(a)(4)
of the Code or an acceleration of a payment under section 409A(a)(3) of the Code.
With respect to an election to change a time of payment made on or before December
31, 2007, the election may apply only to amounts that would not otherwise be payable
in 2007 and may not cause an amount to be paid in 2007 that would not otherwise be
payable in 2007. With respect to an election to change a time of payment made on or
after January 1, 2008 and on or before December 31, 2008, the election may apply
only to

 

 

amounts that would not otherwise be payable in 2008 and may not cause an amount
to be paid in 2008 that would not otherwise be payable in 2008.

     2. Except as otherwise provided in this Amendment, the provisions of the Plan shall
remain in full force and effect.

     IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment is hereby signed this 21st day of December, 2007.

AMENDMENT NO. 1

TO

LINCOLN ELECTRIC HOLDINGS, INC.

1998 STOCK PLAN

(AS AMENDED, RESTATED AND RENAMED EFFECTIVE MAY 1, 2003)

Recitals

     WHEREAS, Lincoln Electric Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) has adopted the 1998 Stock (As
Amended, Restated and Renamed Effective of May 1, 2003) (the “Plan”); and

     WHEREAS, the Compensation and Executive Development Committee has approved this Amendment No.
1 to the Plan (“Amendment No. 1”).

Amendment

     NOW, THEREFORE, the Plan is hereby amended by this Amendment No. 1, effective as of October
20, 2006, as follows:

     1. Section 10 of the Plan is amended to read as follows:

     Adjustments. The Committee shall make or provide for such adjustments in the numbers of
Common Shares covered by outstanding Options, Tandem Appreciation Rights and Deferred Shares
granted hereunder, in the price per Common Share applicable to outstanding Options and Tandem
Appreciation Rights, and in the kind of shares covered thereby, as is equitably required to prevent
dilution or enlargement of the rights of Participants or Optionees that otherwise would result from
(a) any stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, recapitalization or other change in the
capital structure of the Company, or (b) any merger, consolidation, spin-off, split-off, spin-out,
split-up, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation or other distribution of assets, issuance
of rights or warrants to purchase securities, or (c) any other corporate transaction or event
having an effect similar to any of the foregoing. However, such adjustments shall be made
automatically, without the necessity of Committee action, on the customary arithmetical basis in
the case of any stock split, including a stock split effected by means of a stock dividend, and in
the case of any other dividend paid in shares of the Company. Moreover, in the event of any such
transaction or event, the Committee, in its discretion, may provide in substitution for any or all
outstanding awards under this Plan such alternative consideration (including cash), if any, as it,
in good faith, may determine to be equitable in the circumstances and may require in connection
therewith the surrender of all awards so replaced. The Committee shall also make or provide for
such adjustments in the numbers and kind of shares specified in Section 4 of this Plan as is
appropriate to reflect any transaction or event described in this Section 10. Any such adjustment
to the number specified in Section 4(b)(i) will be made in such manner as not to cause any option
intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option to fail so to qualify.

     2. Except as amended by Amendment No. 1, the Plan shall remain unchanged and in full force and
effect.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has executed this Amendment No. 1 effective as of the date
first written above.

     1. Section 7 of the Plan is amended to read as follows:

     Adjustments. The Committee shall make or provide for such adjustments in the number of shares
covered by outstanding Options granted hereunder, in the Option Price and in the kind of shares
covered thereby, as is equitably required to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of
Optionees that otherwise would result from (a) any stock dividend, stock split, combination of

alternative consideration as it, in good faith, may determine to be equitable in the circumstances
and may require in that connection the surrender of all Options so replaced. The Committee shall
also make or provide for adjustments in the numbers and kind of Common Shares specified in Sections
3 and 5 of the Plan determined to be appropriate in order to reflect any transaction or event
