RECITALS
WHEREAS, on ____________________, the Participant and the Company entered into the Sila Realty Trust, Inc. Deferred Stock Award Agreement (the “Agreement”); 
WHEREAS, the Company intended for the Agreement to provide for the Participant to receive a Dividend Equivalent credit equal to any normal cash dividend, special cash dividend or special cash distribution declared by the Company with respect to its shares of Common Stock for each outstanding Deferred Stock Unit, however, due to an inadvertent omission, the Agreement did not include a Dividend Equivalent credit with respect to any special cash dividend or special cash distribution; and
 WHEREAS, the Company and the Participant desire to amend the Agreement to provide for the Participant to receive a Dividend Equivalent credit equal to any normal cash dividend, special cash dividend or special cash distribution declared by the Company with respect to its shares of Common Stock for each outstanding Deferred Stock Unit, including the special cash distribution declared by the Company with respect to the Company’s stockholders of record as of the close business on July 26, 2021.
NOW, THEREFORE in consideration of the foregoing recitals, and the affirmation of the existing mutual promises and covenants contained in the Agreement, and for other good and 
1

valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Participant and the Company agree as follows;
1.The recitals set forth above are true and correct.
2.The Effective Date of this Amendment shall be the date first above written regardless of when the last party hereto signs this Amendment. 
3.Section 1.4 of the Agreement is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:
1.4 Rights as Stockholder; Dividend Equivalents & Voting Rights. The Participant (or any subsequent transferee) shall have no rights as a Stockholder with respect to any Deferred Stock Units until shares are issued pursuant to Section 1.3. The Participant shall be entitled to Dividend Equivalents with respect to the Vested Deferred Stock Units, as described herein. If the Company declares a normal cash dividend, special cash dividend or special cash distribution on its shares of Common Stock and the record date of such normal cash dividend, special cash dividend or special cash distribution is on or after the Award Date and on or before the date shares of Common Stock are issued pursuant to Section 1.3 in respect of any Vested Deferred Stock Units, the Participant (or any subsequent transferee) shall receive a Dividend Equivalent credit equal to such normal cash dividend, special cash dividend or special cash distribution for each outstanding Deferred Stock Unit. Any such Dividend Equivalent credits shall be accumulated (without interest) and shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as are applicable to the Deferred Stock Units to which the Dividend Equivalents relate, including, without limitation, the restrictions on transfer, forfeiture, vesting and payment provisions contained in this Agreement. For avoidance of doubt, Dividend Equivalents shall be paid in cash on the date the Vested Deferred Stock Units to which they relate are converted into shares of Common Stock and they shall only be paid with respect to Vested Deferred Stock Units. Furthermore, for the avoidance of doubt, the Participant shall receive a Dividend Equivalent credit for each outstanding Deferred Stock Unit equal to the special cash distribution declared by the Company with respect to the Company’s stockholders of record as of the close business on July 26, 2021. Any dividends or distributions paid in the form of Common Stock of the Company or other securities shall be considered additional Deferred Stock Units and shall be subject to all terms and provisions of this Agreement as the underlying Deferred Stock Units. The Participant (or any subsequent transferee) shall have all voting rights applicable to shares of Common Stock for which the record date is on or after the date the shares are issued pursuant to Section 1.3. The Participant (or any subsequent transferee) shall have no rights whatsoever (dividend, voting or otherwise) with respect to Deferred Stock Units that are forfeited.

4.    Except as amended and modified hereby, all of the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement are hereby ratified and affirmed and shall remain in full force and effect.

Position. Company hereby retains Director to serve as an independent non- employee member of the Board qualified to serve on an
audit committee of the Company, as well as the Chairperson of the Audit Committee of the Board. Director shall perform such duties and
responsibilities as are normally related to such position in accordance with Company’s bylaws, as amended, and applicable law (the
“Services”), and Director hereby agrees to use Director’s diligent efforts to provide the Services. Director shall
not allow any other person or entity to perform any of the Services for or instead of Director. Director shall comply with the statutes,

(b)    Other
Activities. Director may be employed by another company, may serve on other boards of directors or advisory boards, and may
engage in any other activity (whether or not pursued for pecuniary advantage), as long as such outside activities do not violate

status as an independent director under applicable law and under the rules of applicable exchange. Except as disclosed in writing by
Director to the Company, Director represents that, to the best of Director’s knowledge, Director has no outstanding agreement
or obligation that is in conflict with any of the provisions of this Agreement, and Director agrees to use Director’s diligent
efforts to avoid or minimize any such conflict and agrees not to enter into any agreement or obligation that could create such a
conflict, without the approval of a majority of the Board of Directors. If, at any time, Director is required to make any disclosure
or take any action that may conflict with any of the provisions of this Agreement, Director will promptly notify the Chief Executive
Officer or the Board of Directors of such obligation, prior to making such disclosure or taking such action. Notwithstanding the
same, the Director will provide the Company with prior written notice of any future commitments to any activities of Director and

No Conflict. Director is not currently engaging in any activity that creates an actual conflict of interest with Company, regardless
of whether such activity is prohibited by Company’s conflict of interest guidelines or this Agreement, and Director agrees to notify
the Board before engaging in any activity that creates a potential conflict of interest with Company. In the event Director engages in
any activity that creates an actual conflict of interest with Company without the prior written consent of the Board, this Agreement
and any obligations of the Company in connection therewith shall be terminated as of the date of such violation.

 

(d)   
Lock-Up. Director agrees that during the term of this Agreement Director is obligated to subject any securities of the Company
to any “lock-up” agreement required to be signed by the Company’s officers and directors in connection with any financing
following the Effective Date, if such financing is approved by the Board.

                                            The Company agrees to indemnify the Director for Director’s activities as a member
                                            of the Board as set forth in the indemnification addendum attached hereto as Exhibit
                                            A.

 

		11.	Entire
                                            Agreement. This Agreement is intended to be the final, complete, and exclusive statements
                                            of the terms of Director’s position as a member of the Board of the Company. This Agreement
                                            entirely supersedes and may not be contradicted by evidence of any prior or contemporaneous
                                            statements or agreements pertaining to Director’s relationship with Company.

 

		12.	Amendments;
                                            Waivers. This Agreement may not be amended except by a writing signed by Director and
                                            by a duly authorized representative of the Company other than Director. Failure to exercise
                                            any right under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right.

 

		13.	Assignment.
                                            Director agrees that Director will not assign any rights or obligations under this Agreement.
                                            Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the consolidation, merger, or sale of Company or

		14.	Severability.
                                            If any provision of this Agreement shall be held by a court or arbitrator to be invalid,
                                            unenforceable, or void, such provision shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted
                                            by law, and the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. In the
                                            event that the time period or scope of any provision is declared by a court or arbitrator
