NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises, the mutual covenants, terms and conditions set forth herein, and other
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 
 1. EMPLOYMENT

“Non-Renewal Notice”). The period during 

 which the Executive is employed by the Company during the Initial Term and any Renewal Term pursuant to this
Agreement is referred to herein as the “Employment Term”. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 1 to the contrary, the Employment Term and the Executive’s employment shall earlier terminate immediately upon

as set forth on Schedule 1 hereto, each of which shall be deemed a Personal Activity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the Personal Activities include the Executive providing services to any for-profit company (excluding CC and CFI,

place of residence to a city in proximity to such other Company location, on a permanent or temporary basis, the Company shall pay for all relocation and return expenses on a tax-grossed up basis, with such payments subject to approval, not to be
unreasonably withheld, by the Board or a committee of directors delegated by the Board.

(including the calendar year in which the Effective Date occurs) shall be no less than $4,000,000 (such amount, as increased from time to time, the “Target Bonus Amount”). If the Board (or a committee of directors delegated by the

performance measures and may be less or more than the applicable Target Bonus Amount. The Board (or a committee of directors 

  
 3 

 delegated by the Board) will review the Target Bonus Amount from time to time, but at least annually, during the

under this Section 4, (A) the Executive shall remain employed by the Company and shall continue to be bound by all the terms of this Agreement and any other applicable duties and obligations to the Company, (B) the Company may direct
the Executive not to report to work, and (C) the Executive shall only undertake such actions on behalf of the Company, consistent with his position, as expressly directed by the Company. 

(b) Termination for Cause or by the Executive without Good Reason. 

(i) The Employment Term and the Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated at any time either (A) by the Company for
“Cause” (as defined and determined below), effective as set forth in Section 4(b)(iii), or (B) by the Executive without Good Reason, effective 30 days following the date on which notice of such termination is given by the
Executive to the Company. 
 (ii) If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause, or by the Executive without Good
Reason, the Executive shall only be entitled to receive the Accrued Benefits. 
 (iii) For purposes of this Agreement, a termination for
“Cause” shall mean a termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company because of (A) the Executive’s conviction of, or plea of no contest to, any felony under the laws of the United States or any state within the
United States (other than a traffic-related felony) which termination shall become effective immediately as of the date the Board determines to terminate the Agreement, which action must be taken on or after the date of such conviction or plea or
within 60 days thereafter; (B) the Executive’s willful and gross misconduct in connection with the performance of his duties to the Company (other than by reason of his incapacity or disability), it being expressly understood that the
Company’s dissatisfaction with the Executive’s performance shall not constitute Cause; or (C) a continuous, willful and material breach by the Executive of this Agreement after written notice of such breach has been provided to the
Executive by the 

  
 6 

 Board, provided, that, in no event shall any action or omission in subsections (B) or (C) constitute
“Cause” unless (1) the Company gives notice to the Executive stating that the Executive will be terminated for Cause, specifying the particulars thereof in reasonable detail and the effective date of such termination (which shall be
no less than ten (10) business days following the date on which such written notice is received by the Executive) (the “Cause Termination Notice”), (2) the Company provides the Executive and his counsel with an opportunity
to appear before the Board to rebut or dispute the alleged reason for termination on a specified date that is at least three business days following the date on which the Cause Termination Notice is given, but prior to the stated termination date
described in clause (1), (3) a majority of the Board (calculated without regard to the Executive) determines that the Executive has failed to materially cure or cease such misconduct or breach within ten (10) business days after the Cause
Termination Notice is given to him and (4) in the case of subsections (B) and (C) above, the Company has suffered, or is reasonably expected to suffer, material economic or reputational harm. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, no
act, or failure to act, on the Executive’s part shall be considered willful unless done or omitted to be done, by him not in good faith and without reasonable belief that his action or omission was in the best interest of the Company, and any
act or omission by the Executive pursuant to the authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board or on the advice of counsel for the Company will be deemed made in good faith and in the best interests of the Company. 

(c) Termination by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason. 

(i) The Employment Term and the Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated (A) by the Company at any time without Cause,
effective four (4) business days following the date on which written notice to such effect is delivered to the Executive, or (B) by the Executive for “Good Reason” (as defined and determined below), effective as set forth in
Section 4(c)(iii). 
 (ii) If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good
Reason, the Company shall pay or provide to the Executive (A) the Accrued Benefits and (B) upon the Executive’s execution of a separation agreement containing a general release of claims substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A
hereto (the “Release”), and the expiration of the applicable revocation period with respect to such Release within 60 days following the date of termination (the date on which the Release becomes effective, the “Release
Effective Date”): 
 (A) A lump sum cash payment equal to the product of (i) three and (ii) the sum of (1) the Base
Salary in effect immediately prior to the date of termination (without regard to any reduction that gives rise to Good Reason) and (2) (x) if such termination occurs on or after the date on which the Annual Bonus, if any, is paid to the
Executive in respect of the second calendar year following the calendar year in which the Effective Date occurs (the “Third Annual Bonus”), the average Annual Bonus paid in respect of each of the three calendar years prior to the
date of termination or (y) if such termination occurs prior to the date on which the Third Annual Bonus, if any, is paid, the Target Bonus Amount in effect immediately prior to the date of termination (without regard to any reduction that gives
rise to Good Reason), payable on the first regularly scheduled payroll date of the Company following the Release Effective Date and in no event later than the 60th day following 

  
 7 

 the date of termination (the actual date of payment, the “Severance Payment Date”);
provided, that, if the 60 day period referenced in Section 4(c)(ii) begins in one calendar year and ends in a subsequent calendar year, the Severance Payment Date will in all events occur in the second calendar year; 

(B) A lump sum cash payment equal to the Annual Bonus, if any, that the Executive would have received in respect of the calendar year prior to
the calendar year in which the termination occurs had the Executive remained an active employee of the Company, based on the achievement of the applicable performance measures, to the extent unpaid as of the termination date, payable on the date
such amount would have been paid had the Executive continued in employment (the “Unpaid Bonus”); 
 (C) A lump-sum payment
equal to the product of (1) the Target Annual Bonus in effect for the calendar year in which the termination occurs, and (2) a fraction, the numerator of which shall equal the number of days during the year in which the termination date
occurs that the Executive was employed by the Company and the denominator of which shall equal 365, payable on the Severance Payment Date (the “Pro-Rated Bonus”); 

(D) Continuation of the Company’s contributions necessary to maintain the Executive’s coverage for the 24 calendar months
immediately following the end of the calendar month in which the termination date occurs under the medical, dental and vision programs in which the Executive participated immediately prior to his termination of employment (and such coverage shall
include the Executive’s eligible dependents); provided, that, if the Company determines in good faith that such contributions would cause adverse tax consequences to the Company or the Executive under applicable law, the Company
shall instead provide the Executive with monthly cash payments during such 24-month period in an amount that, after reduction for applicable taxes (assuming the Executive pays taxes at the highest marginal rates in the applicable jurisdictions), is
equal to the amount of the Company’s monthly contributions referenced above. The applicable period of health benefit continuation under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”) shall begin on the
expiration of such 24-month period; 
 (E) Full vesting as of the date of termination of any and all equity or equity-based awards relating
to the securities of the Company and any Fund Incentives that are outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the date of such termination; and 

(F) Continued provision of the security and kidnap insurance as in effect immediately prior to the date of such termination, for the later to
occur of (x) the scheduled expiration of the Employment Term and (y) 24 calendar months immediately following the date of such termination. 

(iii) For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean any action by the Company, in each case without the
Executive’s prior written consent, that (A) results in a material diminution in the Executive’s duties, authority or responsibilities or a diminution in Executive’s title or position; provided, that (x) causing the Executive
to no longer report solely and directly to the Board, (y) modifying the Executive’s title and (z) failing to maintain Executive on the Board shall all constitute Good Reason; (B) reduces the Base Salary, Target Annual Bonus or
Target LTIP Award then in effect; (C) relocates the Executive’s principal place of employment to a location more than 25 miles from the location in effect immediately 

  
 8 

 prior to such relocation; or (D) constitutes a material breach by the Company of this Agreement or any other
material agreement between the Executive and the Company, which such material breach shall include (i) any action by the Company that restricts the Executive’s ability to perform the CCHLLC Duties or (ii) the failure of the Board to
provide the Executive with the opportunity to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of CFI following a CEO Termination; provided, that, in no event shall the occurrence of any such condition constitute Good Reason unless (1) the
Executive gives notice to the Company of the existence of the Executive’s knowledge of the condition giving rise to Good Reason within 90 days following its initial existence, (2) the Company fails to cure such condition within 30 days
following the date such notice is given and (3) the Executive terminates his employment with the Company within 30 days following the expiration of such cure period. 

(d) Termination Due to Death or Disability. 

(i) The Employment Term and the Executive’s employment hereunder (A) may be terminated by the Company as a result of the Executive’s
“Disability” (as defined and determined below) and (B) shall terminate immediately as a result of the Executive’s death. 

(ii) If the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company as a result of the Executive’s Disability or terminates as a result
of the Executive’s death, the Company shall provide the Executive (or his estate) with: (A) the Accrued Benefits, (B) the Unpaid Bonus, (C) a lump-sum payment equal to the Pro-Rated Bonus with respect to the calendar year in
which the termination occurs and (D) full vesting as of the date of termination of any and all equity or equity-based awards relating to the securities of the Company and any Fund Incentives that are outstanding and unvested immediately prior
to the date of such termination. 
 (iii) For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean a physical or mental
incapacity that substantially prevents the Executive from performing his duties hereunder and that has continued for at least 180 consecutive days. Any dispute as to whether or not the Executive is disabled within the meaning of the preceding
sentence shall be resolved by a qualified, independent physician reasonably satisfactory to the Executive and the Company, and the determination of such physician shall be final and binding upon both the Executive and the Company. All fees and
expenses of any such physician shall be borne solely by the Company. 
 (e) Non-Renewal of Agreement. 

(i) If the Company gives a Non-Renewal Notice to the Executive, the Employment Term and the Executive’s employment hereunder shall
terminate as of the expiration of the Initial Term or then-current Renewal Term, as applicable, and the Company shall provide the Executive with all of the payments and benefits set forth in Section 4(c) hereof, subject to his execution and
non-revocation of the Release by the Release Effective Date. 
 (ii) If the Executive gives a Non-Renewal Notice to the Company, the
Employment Term and the Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate as of the expiration of the Initial Term or then-current Renewal Term, as applicable, and the Company shall provide the Executive with (w) the Accrued Benefits,
(x) any Unpaid Bonus in respect of the calendar year prior to the calendar year in which the termination occurs, (y) a Pro-Rated Bonus in respect of the calendar year in which the termination occurs and (z) in the event that such
Notice of Non-Renewal is given by the Executive upon his retirement from the Company 

  
 9 

 on or after his attainment of age 72, full vesting as of the date of termination of any and all equity or
equity-based awards relating to the securities of the Company and any Fund Incentives that are outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the date of such termination. 

(f) Return of Property. Upon any termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder, the Executive shall as soon as practicable
following such termination deliver or cause to be delivered to the Company the tangible property owned by the Company, which is in the possession or control of the Executive. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive shall be permitted to retain
his calendar and his contacts and investor lists, all compensation-related plans and agreements, any documents reasonably needed for personal tax purposes and his personal notes, journals, diaries and correspondence (including personal emails). In
addition, the Executive shall be able to retain his mobile phone(s) and personal computer(s) and his cell phone number(s). 
 (g)
Resignation as Officer or Director. Unless requested otherwise by the Company, upon any termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder the Executive shall resign each position (if any) that the Executive then holds as an officer or
director of the Company. The Executive’s execution of this Agreement shall be deemed the grant by the Executive to the officers of the Company of a limited power of attorney to sign in the Executive’s name and on the Executive’s
behalf any such documentation as may be required to be executed solely for the limited purposes of effectuating such resignations. 
 (h)
No Set-Off or Mitigation. The Company’s obligations to make payments under this Agreement shall not be affected by any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or other claim the Company or any of its affiliates may have against the Executive.
The Executive does not need to seek other employment or take any other action to mitigate any amounts owed to the Executive under this Agreement, and those amounts shall not be reduced if the Executive does obtain other employment. 

5. RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS. The Executive is entering into the Restrictive Covenant Agreement, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto (the
“Restrictive Covenant Agreement”), as of the date hereof. The Restrictive Covenant Agreement shall become effective as of the Effective Date and shall continue in effect at all applicable times following the Effective Date in
accordance with the terms and conditions thereof. 
 6. SECTION 280G. 

(a) Treatment of Payments. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement to the contrary, in
the event that an independent, nationally recognized, accounting firm which shall be designated by the Company with the Executive’s written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) (the “Accounting Firm”)
shall determine that any payment or benefit received or to be received by the Executive from the Company or any of its affiliates or from any person who effectuates a change in control or effective control of the Company or any of such person’s
affiliates (whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement or agreement) (all such payments and benefits, the “Total Payments”) would fail to be deductible under Section 280G of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or otherwise would be subject (in whole or part) to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”) then the Accounting Firm shall determine
if the payments or 

  
 10 

 
benefits to be received by the Executive that are subject to Section 280G of the Code shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that no portion of the Total Payments is subject to the
Excise Tax, but such reduction shall occur if and only to the extent that the net amount of such Total Payments, as so reduced (and after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes, and employment, Social Security and
Medicare taxes on such reduced Total Payments), is greater than or equal to the net amount of such Total Payments without such reduction (but after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes and employment, Social Security
and Medicare taxes on such Total Payments and the amount of Excise Tax (or any other excise tax) to which the Executive would be subject in respect of such unreduced Total Payments). For purposes of this Section 6(a), the above tax amounts
shall be determined by applying the highest marginal rate under Section 1 of the Code and under state and local laws which applied (or is likely to apply) to the Executive’s taxable income for the tax year in which the transaction which
causes the application of Section 280G of the Code occurs, or such other rate(s) as the Accounting Firm determines to be likely to apply to the Executive in the relevant tax year(s) in which any of the Total Payments is expected to be made. If
the Accounting Firm determines that the Executive would not retain a larger amount on an after-tax basis if the Total Payments were so reduced, then the Executive shall retain all of the Total Payments. 

(b) Ordering of Reduction. In the case of a reduction in the Total Payments pursuant to Section 6(a), the Total Payments will be
reduced in the following order: (i) payments that are payable in cash that are valued at full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24(a) will be reduced (if necessary, to zero), with amounts that are payable last
reduced first; (ii) payments and benefits due in respect of any equity valued at full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24(a), with the highest values reduced first (as such values are determined under Treasury
Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24) will next be reduced; (iii) payments that are payable in cash that are valued at less than full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24, with amounts that are payable last
reduced first, will next be reduced; (iv) payments and benefits due in respect of any equity valued at less than full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24, with the highest values reduced first (as such values are
determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24) will next be reduced; and (v) all other non-cash benefits not otherwise described in clauses (ii) or (iv) will be next reduced pro-rata. 

(c) Certain Determinations. For purposes of determining whether and the extent to which the Total Payments will be subject to the
Excise Tax: (i) no portion of the Total Payments the receipt or enjoyment of which the Executive shall have waived at such time and in such manner as not to constitute a “payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b) of the Code
will be taken into account; (ii) no portion of the Total Payments will be taken into account which, in the opinion of tax counsel (“Tax Counsel”) reasonably acceptable to the Executive and selected by the Accounting Firm, does
not constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code (including by reason of Section 280G(b)(4)(A) of the Code) and, in calculating the Excise Tax, no portion of such Total Payments will be
taken into account which, in the opinion of Tax Counsel, constitutes reasonable compensation for services actually rendered, within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4)(B) of the Code, in excess of the “base amount” (as set forth in
Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) that is allocable to such reasonable compensation; and (iii) the value of any non-

  
 11 

 
cash benefit or any deferred payment or benefit included in the Total Payments will be determined by the Accounting Firm in accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of
the Code. The Executive and the Company shall furnish such documentation and documents as may be necessary for the Accounting Firm to perform the requisite calculations and analysis under this Section 6 (and shall cooperate to the extent
necessary for any of the determinations in this Section 6(c) to be made), and the Accounting Firm shall provide a written report of its determinations hereunder, including detailed supporting calculations. If the Accounting Firm determines that
aggregate Total Payments should be reduced as described above, it shall promptly notify the Executive and the Company to that effect. In the absence of manifest error, all determinations by the Accounting Firm under this Section 6 shall be
binding on the Executive and the Company and shall be made as soon as reasonably practicable and in no event later than fifteen (15) days following the later of the Executive’s date of termination of employment or the date of the
transaction which causes the application of Section 280G of the Code. The Company shall bear all costs, fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm and any legal counsel retained by the Accounting Firm. 

(d) Additional Payments. If the Executive receives reduced payments and benefits by reason of this Section 6 and it is established
pursuant to a determination of a court of competent jurisdiction which is not subject to review or as to which the time to appeal has expired, or pursuant to an Internal Revenue Service proceeding, that the Executive could have received a greater
amount without resulting in any Excise Tax, then the Company shall thereafter pay the Executive the aggregate additional amount which could have been paid without resulting in any Excise Tax as soon as reasonably practicable following such
determination. 
 7. ASSIGNMENT; ASSUMPTION OF AGREEMENT. No right, benefit or interest hereunder shall be subject to assignment, encumbrance, charge,
pledge, hypothecation or setoff by the Executive in respect of any claim, debt, obligation or similar process. This Agreement may not be assigned by CFI and CFI will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger,
consolidation, or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company to assume expressly and to agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it
if no such succession had taken place. 
 8. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. 

(a) No Breach of Obligation to Others. The Executive represents and warrants that his entering into this Agreement does not, and that
his performance under this Agreement and consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not, violate the provisions of any agreement or instrument to which the Executive is a party or any decree, judgment or order to which the
Executive is subject, and that this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Executive enforceable against the Executive in accordance with its terms. 

(b) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California applicable
to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within such state. 

  
 12 

 (c) Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the documents referred to herein,
constitutes and expresses the whole agreement of the parties hereto with reference to any of the matters or things herein provided for or herein before discussed or mentioned with reference to the Executive’s employment with the Company, and it
cancels and replaces any and all prior understandings, agreements and term sheets between the Executive and CFI and any of its subsidiaries or affiliates; provided, that, this Agreement shall not alter, amend or supersede (i) any Fund
Incentives issued to Executive by CC in connection with his prior employment, (ii) any interest the Executive or any of his affiliates may have in any general partner of any fund or related entity managed by the Company, the terms of any of the
OP Units issued pursuant to, or other rights the Executive may have under the Contribution Agreements, (iii) the Ancillary Documents (as defined in the Contribution Agreement), (iv) the Indemnification Agreement referenced in
Section 3(g) of this Agreement to which the Executive or any of his affiliates is a party or beneficiary and (v) any equity grant made by CFI to the Executive prior to the Effective Date. All promises, representations, collateral
agreements and understandings not expressly incorporated in this Agreement are hereby superseded by this Agreement. 
 (d) Notices.
All notices, requests, demands and other communications required or permitted hereunder must be made in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given and effective: (a) on the date of delivery, if delivered personally; (b) on the

 (e) Survival. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Executive contained in
this Agreement will survive any termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company. 
 (f) Amendment; Waiver;
Termination. No provision of this Agreement may be amended, modified, waived or discharged unless such amendment, modification, waiver or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and CFI. No waiver by either party hereto at
any time of any breach by the other party hereto of compliance with any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any
prior or subsequent time. This Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein shall terminate automatically without any further action by any party upon the termination of the Contribution Agreement. 

(g) Further Assurances. The parties hereto will from time to time after the date hereof execute, acknowledge where appropriate and
deliver such further instruments and take such other actions as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement. 

(h) Severability. If any term of provision hereof is determined to be invalid or unenforceable in a final court or arbitration
proceeding, (i) the remaining terms and provisions hereof shall be unimpaired and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, the invalid or unenforceable term or provision shall be deemed replaced by a term or provision that is valid
and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision. 
 (i)
Arbitration. Except as otherwise set forth in the Restrictive Covenant Agreement, any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement that cannot be mutually resolved by the parties hereto shall be settled
exclusively by arbitration in Santa Monica, California before a panel of three neutral arbitrators, each of whom shall be selected jointly by the parties, or, if the parties cannot agree on the selection of the arbitrators, as selected by the
American Arbitration Association. The commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA Rules”) shall govern any arbitration between the parties, except that the following provisions are included in the
parties’ agreement to arbitrate and override any contrary provisions in the AAA Rules: 
 (i) The agreement to arbitrate
and the rights of the parties hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict or choice of law rules; 

(ii) The California Arbitration Act shall govern the arbitration, the agreement to arbitrate, and any proceedings to enforce,
confirm, modify or vacate the award; 
 (iii) The arbitrators shall apply California law; 

(iv) Any petition or motion to modify or vacate the award shall be filed in a Superior Court in California (the
“Court”); 
 (iv) The award shall be written, reasoned, and shall include findings of fact as to all factual
issues and conclusions of law as to all legal issues; 

  
 14 

 (v) Either party may seek a de novo review by the Court of the conclusions of law
included in the award and any petition or motion to enforce, confirm, modify or vacate the award; and 
 (vi) The arbitration
shall be confidential. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrators’ award in any court having jurisdiction. 
 The parties hereby agree
that the arbitrators shall be empowered to enter an equitable decree mandating specific enforcement of the terms of this Agreement. Each party shall bear its own legal fees and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in any arbitration hereunder and the
parties shall share equally all expenses of the arbitrators; provided, that, the arbitrator shall have the same authority to award reasonable attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party in any arbitration as part of the
arbitrator’s award as would be the case had the dispute or controversy been argued before a court with competent jurisdiction. 
 (j)
Section 409A. The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Code, to the extent subject thereto, and accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall
be interpreted and administered to be in compliance therewith. In the event that any provision of Agreement or any other agreement or award referenced herein is mutually agreed by the parties to be in violation of Section 409A of the Code, the
parties shall cooperate reasonably to attempt to amend or modify this Agreement (or other agreement or award) in order to avoid a violation of Section 409A of the Code while attempting to preserve the economic intent of the applicable
provision. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Executive shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Company for purposes of any payments under this Agreement which are subject to Section 409A of
the Code until the Executive would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided under this Agreement shall
be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. Without limiting the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation
and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to this Agreement or any other arrangement between the Executive and the Company during the
six-month period immediately following the Executive’s separation from service shall instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six months following the Executive’s separation from service (or, if earlier, the
Executive’s date of death). To the extent required to avoid an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, amounts reimbursable to the Executive under this Agreement shall be paid to the Executive on or before the last
day of the year following the year in which the expense was incurred and the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement (and in kind benefits provided to the Executive) during one year may not affect amounts reimbursable or provided in any
subsequent year. CFI makes no representation that any or all of the payments described in this Agreement will be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A of the Code from
applying to any such payment. For purposes of this Section 8(j), Section 409A of the Code shall include all regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder. 

  
 15 

 (k) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not affect
the interpretation of this Agreement. 
 (l) Construction. The parties acknowledge that this Agreement is the result of
arm’s-length negotiations between sophisticated parties, each afforded representation by legal counsel. Each and every provision of this Agreement shall be construed as though both parties participated equally in the drafting of the same, and
any rule of construction that a document shall be construed against the drafting party shall not be applicable to this Agreement. 
 (m)
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but both such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same document. 

(n) Tax Withholding. The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement all federal, state, city or other taxes as
the Company is required to withhold pursuant to any applicable law, regulation or ruling. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to guarantee any particular tax result for the Executive with respect
to any payment provided to the Executive hereunder, and the Executive shall be responsible for any taxes imposed on Executive with respect to any such payment. 

(o) Cooperation. For a period of 12 months following the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason,
the Executive shall provide reasonable cooperation in connection with any action or proceeding (or any appeal from any action or proceeding) which relates to events during the Executive’s employment hereunder of which the Executive has
knowledge. The Company shall reimburse the Executive for the Executive’s reasonable travel expenses incurred in connection with the foregoing, in accordance with the Company’s policies (and consistent with the Executive’s travel
practices during the Executive’s employment with the Company) and subject to the delivery of reasonable support for such expenses. Any such requests for cooperation shall be subject to the Executive’s business and personal schedule and the
Executive shall not be required to cooperate against his own legal interests or the legal interests of his employer or partners or business ventures. In the event the Executive reasonably determines that he needs separate legal counsel in connection
with his cooperation, the Company shall reimburse the Executive for the reasonable costs of such counsel as soon as practicable (and in any event within thirty (30) days) following its receipt of an invoice for such costs. In the event the
Executive is required to cooperate for more than eight (8) hours in any 12-month period, the Executive shall be paid an hourly consulting fee in an amount mutually agreed between the Company and Executive at the time. 

(p) Effectiveness. This Agreement and the transactions contemplated herein shall be conditioned upon the closing of the transactions
contemplated by the Contribution Agreement. In the event that the Contribution Agreement terminates prior to the closing of the transactions contemplated thereby, this Agreement shall terminate automatically without any further action by any party
and shall be void ab initio.

Current Activities 

 Exhibit A 

Form of Release 
 Thomas
J. Barrack, Jr. (“Executive”), a former employee of Colony Financial, Inc. (“CFI” and together with its subsidiaries, the “Employer”), hereby enters into and agrees to be bound by this General
Waiver and Release of Claims (the “Release”). Executive acknowledges that he is required to execute this Release in order to be eligible for certain post-termination benefits (the “Post-Termination Benefits”) as set
forth in Section [4(c)(ii)] / [4(e)(i)] of his Employment Agreement with CFI, dated December 23, 2014 (the “Employment Agreement”). Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the
meanings specified in the Employment Agreement. 
 1. SEPARATION DATE. Executive acknowledges and agrees that his separation from Employer was
effective as of         , 20XX ( the “Separation Date”). 
 2. WAGES FULLY PAID. Executive
acknowledges and agrees that he has received payment in full for all salary and other wages, including without limitation any accrued, unused vacation or other similar benefits earned through the Separation Date. 

3. EXECUTIVE’S GENERAL RELEASE OF CLAIMS. 

(a) Waiver and Release. Pursuant to Section [4(c)(ii)] / [4(e)(i)] of the Employment Agreement, and in consideration of the
Post-Termination Benefits to be provided to Executive as outlined in the Employment Agreement and this Release as set forth herein, Executive, on behalf of himself and his heirs, executors, administrators and assigns, forever waives, releases and
discharges Employer, its officers, directors, owners, shareholders and agents (collectively referred to herein as, the “Employer Group”), and each of its and their respective officers, directors, shareholders, members, managers,
employees, agents, servants, accountants, attorneys, heirs, beneficiaries, successors and assigns (together with the Employer Group, the “Employer Released Parties”), from any and all claims, demands, causes of actions, fees,
damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of any kind whatsoever, whether known or unknown, that Executive has ever had or might have against the Employer Released Parties that directly or indirectly arise out of, relate to,
or are connected with, Executive’s services to, or employment by the Company, including, but not limited to (i) any claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, as amended, the Americans with Disabilities Act, as amended, the Family and
Medical Leave Act, as amended, the Fair Labor Standards Act, as amended, the Equal Pay Act, as amended, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, as amended (with respect to unvested benefits), the Civil Rights Act of 1991, as amended,
Section 1981 of Title 42 of the United States Code, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, as amended, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended, the Uniform Services
Employment and Reemployment Rights Act, as amended, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, as amended, and the California Labor Code, as amended, and/or any other federal, state or local law (statutory, regulatory or otherwise) that may be
legally waived and released and (ii) any tort and/or 

 
contract claims, including any claims of wrongful discharge, defamation, emotional distress, tortious interference with contract, invasion of privacy, nonphysical injury, personal injury or
sickness or any other harm. Executive acknowledges that if the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or any other administrative agency brings any charge or complaint on his behalf or for his benefit, this Release bars Executive from receiving,
and Executive hereby waives any right to, any monetary or other individual relief related to such a charge or complaint. This Release, however, excludes (i) any claims made under state workers’ compensation or unemployment laws, and/or any
claims that cannot be waived by law, (ii) claims with respect to the breach of any covenant (including any payments under the Employment Agreement) to be performed by Employer after the date of this Release, (iii) any rights to
indemnification or contribution or directors & officers liability insurance under the Employment Agreement, Indemnification Agreement, any operative documents of the Company or any applicable law, (iv) any claims as a holder of Company
equity awards under the Company’s equity incentive plans or as a holder of Fund Incentives, and (v) any claims for vested benefits under any employee benefit plan (excluding any severance plan and including claims under the Consolidated
Omnibus Budget ReconcilliationReconciliation Act of 1985) or any claims that may arise after the date Executive signs the Release. 

(b) Waiver of Unknown Claims; Section 1542. Executive intends to fully waive and release all claims against Employer;
therefore, he expressly understands and hereby agrees that this Release is intended to cover, and does cover, not only all known injuries, losses or damages, but any injuries, losses or damages that he does not now know about or anticipate,
but that might later develop or be discovered, including the effects and consequences of those injuries, losses or damages. Executive expressly waives the benefits of and right to relief under California Civil Code Section 1542
(“Section 1542”), or any similar statute or comparable common law doctrine in any jurisdiction. Section 1542 provides: 

Section 1542. (General Release-Claims Extinguished) A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or
suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor. 

Executive understands and acknowledges the significance and consequences of this specific waiver of Section 1542 and, having had the opportunity to
consult with legal counsel, hereby knowingly and voluntarily waives and relinquishes any rights and/or benefits which he may have thereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Executive acknowledges that by accepting the benefits and
payments offered in exchange for this Release, he assumes and waives the risks that the facts and the law may be other than he believes and that, after signing this Release, he may discover losses or claims that are released under this Release, but
that are presently unknown to him, and he understands and agrees that this Release shall apply to any such losses or claims. 
 (c)
Acknowledgement of ADEA Waiver. Without in any way limiting the scope of the foregoing general release of claims, Executive acknowledges that he is waiving and releasing any rights he may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of
1967 (the “ADEA”) and that such waiver and release is knowing and voluntary. This waiver and 

 
release does not govern any rights or claims that might arise under the ADEA after the date this Release is signed by Executive. Executive acknowledges that: (i) the consideration given for
this Release is in addition to anything of value to which Executive otherwise would be entitled to receive; (ii) he has been advised in writing to consult with an attorney of his choice prior to signing this Release; (iii) he has been
provided a full and ample opportunity to review this Release, including a period of at least twenty-one (21) days within which to consider it (which will not be lengthened by any revisions or modifications); (iv) he has read and fully
understands this Release and has had the opportunity to discuss it with an attorney of his choice; (v) to the extent that Executive takes less than twenty-one (21) days to consider this Release prior to execution, he acknowledges that he
had sufficient time to consider this Release with counsel and that he expressly, voluntarily and knowingly waives any additional time; and (vi) Executive is aware of his right to revoke this Release at any time within the seven (7)-day period
following the date on which he executes this Release. Executive further understands that he shall relinquish any right he has to Post-Termination Benefits described in the Employment Agreement if he exercises his right to revoke this Release. Notice
of revocation must be made in writing and must be received by [Name, Title], no later than 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the seventh (7th) calendar day immediately after the day on which Executive executes this Release. 

4. NO CLAIMS BY EXECUTIVE. Executive affirms and warrants that he has not filed, initiated or caused to be filed or initiated any claim, charge, suit,
complaint, grievance, action or cause of action against Employer or any of the other Employer Released Parties. 
 5. NO ASSIGNMENT OF CLAIMS.
Executive affirms and warrants that he has made no assignment of any right or interest in any claim which he may have against any of the Employer Released Parties. 

6. ADVICE OF COUNSEL. Executive acknowledges: (a) that he has been advised to consult with an attorney regarding this Release; (b) that he
has, in fact, consulted with an attorney regarding this Release; (c) that he has carefully read and understands all of the provisions of this Release; and (d) that he is knowingly and voluntarily executing this Release in consideration of
the Post-Termination Benefits provided under the Employment Agreement.

 ANNEX II 

AMENDED LOCK-UP AGREEMENT 

[See Attached] 

 EXECUTION VERSION 

LOCK-UP AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AGREEMENT 

THIS LOCK-UP AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AGREEMENT (this
“Agreement”), dated as of December 23, 20152014, to be effective as of the Closing, is made by and among Colony Financial, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (“CFI”), Colony Capital, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“CC”), CFI RE Masterco LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of CFI (the “OP”), and Thomas J.
Barrack, Jr. (“Barrack”). Any capitalized term that is used but not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning set forth in the Contribution Agreement (as defined below). 

WHEREAS, CFI, CC, Colony Capital Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“CC Holdings”), Colony Capital
OP Subsidiary, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“NewCo”), CCH Management Partners I, LLC (“CCH”), FHB Holding LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Richard B. Saltzman and the OP have entered into
that certain Contribution and Implementation Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2014 (the “Contribution Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, CC Holdings, CC and CCH will contribute to the OP and the OP will
acquire from CC Holdings, CC and CCH the membership interests in NewCo held by CC Holdings, CC and CCH (which constitute all of the membership interests of NewCo); 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Contribution Agreement (i) the OP will issue New Units to CC (the “Closing New Units”)
equal to the CC Closing Unit Consideration and (ii) the OP may issue additional New Units to CC following the Closing in respect of the Contingent Consideration (if any, the “Contingent Consideration New Units”). For purposes
of this Agreement, the Closing New Units and the Contingent Consideration New Units, if any, are referred to as the “Initial CC New Units”); and 

WHEREAS, Barrack is the managing member of, and directly or indirectly owns all of the Class A Units of CC Holdings, which is the holder of all of
the equity interests of CC, and therefore Barrack has and will continue to have the ability to direct and control actions taken by or on behalf of CC.; and 

WHEREAS, NorthStar Realty Finance Corp., a Maryland corporation, CFI, NorthStar
Asset Management Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and the other parties named therein, have entered into that certain Agreement and Plans of Merger, dated as of June 2, 2016, (the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other
things, CFI will be merged into New Polaris (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (the “Merger Transaction”), with New Polaris as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Company”). 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises, the mutual covenants, terms and conditions set forth herein, and other
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 
 1. TERMS AND
CONDITIONS OF THE CC NEW UNITS. 
 (a) CC New Units. Prior to the date hereof CCH has issued, and after the date
hereof and before the Closing Date, CCH intends to issue to employees of CC and its Subsidiaries (or investment vehicles established for the benefit of employees of CC and its Subsidiaries) membership interests in CCH and to allocate the economic
benefit of a percentage of the Initial CC New Units (not to exceed in the aggregate 31.8% of the Initial CC New Units) (the “Allocated Units”) to such employees and/or investment vehicles. All of the Allocated Units

 
will be subject to lock-up provisions as least as favorable to CFI as the Employee Restrictions (as defined below), which lock up provisions will not lapse on a schedule more quickly than on a
ratable basis on each of the first three anniversaries of the Closing Date. The Allocated Units with respect to membership interests or economic benefits allocated issued after the date hereof will be subject to ratable vesting over at least three
years based on continued employment with CFI or CCH and their respective subsidiaries or managed funds or portfolio companies. The Initial CC New Units other than those that are identified as Allocated Units as of the Closing Date, but including
such Allocated Units that Barrack subsequently becomes the sole beneficial owner, shall constitute “CC New Units” for purposes of this Agreement. For purposes of clarification, the CC New Units do not include any New Shares received
by Saltzman under the Saltzman Share Transfer Agreement or the New Shares retained or sold by CC under the Saltzman Share Transfer Agreement under the Contribution Agreement in respect of payment of tax obligations of Saltzman or the New Units
received by Saltzman under the Contribution Agreement. 
 (a) Fully Vested. The CC New Units shall be fully vested as of the date on
which they are issued to CC (as applicable, the “Date of Issuance”). 
 (b) Rights as Unitholder. Except as otherwise
set forth in this Agreement in respect of the “Transfer Restrictions”and the “Liquidated Damages Payment” (each(as defined below), CC shall have all the
rights of a unitholder with respect to the CC New Units, including the right to receive any distributions paid to or made with respect to the CC New Units. 

(c) Legend on Certificates. Any certificates evidencing the Restricted CC New Units (as defined below) shall bear such legends
reflecting the Transfer Restrictions as CFI may determine in its sole discretion to be necessary or appropriate; provided, that, in no event shall any such legend be included on any CC New Units once such CC New Units cease to be
Restricted CC New Units. 
 2. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF THE CC NEW UNITS. 

(a) Temporary Transfer Restrictions. Except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Agreement, Barrack shall not, and shall cause CC
not to, offer, pledge, encumber, hypothecate, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of,
directly or indirectly (subject to Section 2(d) below, each, a “Transfer”) any of the CC New Units (the “Transfer Restrictions”). The CC New Units subject to the Transfer Restrictions shall be referred to
herein as the “Restricted CC New Units” and shall no longer be Restricted CC New Units from and after the applicable Restriction Lapse Date. 

(b) Exceptions to Transfer Restrictions. Notwithstanding anything set forth in Section 2(a) to the contrary: 

(i) On each of the first five anniversaries of the Closing Date (each a “Restriction Lapse Date”), the Transfer Restrictions
relating to the number of Restricted CC New Units set forth below shall lapse, such that all of the CC New Units shall be free of any and all Transfer Restrictions and shall no longer be Restricted CC New Units as of the fifth anniversary of the
Closing Date: 
 (A) on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, 20% of the remaining Restricted CC New Units; 

  
 2 

 (B) on the second anniversary of the Closing Date, 25% of the remaining Restricted CC New Units;

 (C) on the third anniversary of the Closing Date, 33 1/3% of the remaining Restricted CC New Units; 

(D) on the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date, 50% of the remaining Restricted CC New Units; 

(E) on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, 100% of the remaining Restricted CC New Units. 

In addition, the Transfer Restrictions shall be removed from all remaining Restricted CC New Units upon Barrack’s death. No Transfer Restrictions shall
be applicable to any Restricted CC New Units or any shares of CFI Common Stock into which such Restricted CC New Units are exchanged from and after the applicable Restriction Lapse Date. For purposes of computing the remaining Restricted CC New
Units as of any particular date, (x) Restricted CC New Units subject to Transfers described in clause (1) of Section 2(b)(ii) below shall be deemed to be remaining Restricted CC New Units so long as record ownership remains with CC,
and (y) Restricted CC New Units subject to Transfers described in clause (3) and (7) of Section 2(b)(ii) shall be deemed to be remaining Restricted CC New Units until such time (if any) they are the subject of a subsequent
Transfer other than as described in clause (3) and (7) of Section 2(b)(ii). 
 (ii) Barrack, CC and any vehicle through which
Barrack or CC then indirectly holds Restricted CC New Units may effectuate any or all of the following Transfers of Restricted CC New Units; provided, that, in the case of Transfers described in clauses (1) through (3) and
(7), (A) the applicable transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the restrictions set forth herein and (B) the Transfer Restrictions with respect to the applicable Restricted CC New Units Transferred thereby shall continue to lapse on a
ratable basis on each Restriction Lapse Date as if still held by CC; provided, further, that in the case of Transfers described in clause (6), the Transferred New Units are subject to vesting (conditioned on continued employment in
good standing) on a ratable basis on each of the first three anniversaries of the Transfer (or later) and such other restrictions as CC and/or CCH may determine, and the applicable transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the restrictions on
Transfer provided for in an employee lock-up agreement in a form mutually agreed by of CC and CFI prior to the Closing Date, that in any event will lapse on a ratable basis on each of the first three anniversaries of the Closing Date as if such
Transfer occurred at such time (the “Employee Restrictions”); and provided, further, that no Restricted CC New Units may be Transferred pursuant to clauses
(1), (2), (6) or (9) of this Section 2(b)(ii) if following such Transfer, Barrack would have sole direct or indirect beneficial ownership of a number of New Units less than that number of Eligible New Units that would be included in a
Liquidated Damages Payment that became payable as of the date of such Transfer:: 

(1) the Transfer of Restricted CC New Units in an aggregate amount up to that number which is equal to 50% of the total number of CC New Units
issued to CC as collateral for any loan; provided, that, such Transfer is a bona fide pledge of the Restricted CC New Units to a Person that is not an Affiliate of the transferor; 

(2) the Transfer of Restricted CC New Units in an aggregate amount up to that number which is equal to 20% of the total number of CC New Units
issued to CC as a bona fide gift or gifts; 

  
 3 

 (3) the Transfer of some or all of the Restricted CC New Units to any trust, partnership,
corporation or limited liability company established and held for the direct or indirect benefit of Barrack or his family members (an “Estate Planning Vehicle”), provided that any such Transfer shall not involve a disposition for
value other than equity interests in any such trust, partnership, corporation or limited liability company; 
 (4) the Transfer of some or
all of the Restricted CC New Units to CFI to satisfy any indemnification obligations of CC as contemplated by the Contribution Agreement; 

(5) the Transfer of some or all of the Restricted CC New Units as required by applicable Law or order; 

(6) the Transfer of some of the Restricted CC New Units held as of the Closing Date to CCH Management Partners II, LLC to or for the benefit of
past or present members of management or other past or present employees of CFI or CC or their respective Affiliates (other than Saltzman), in each case subject to the Employee Restrictions; 

(7) the Transfer of some or all of the Restricted CC New Units to a nominee or custodian of a person or entity to whom a disposition or
Transfer would be permitted under this Agreement; 
 (8) the Transfer of some or all of the Restricted CC New Units as provided for in
Section 3 below; and 
 (9) the Transfer of a number of Restricted CC New Units as is reasonably determined by CC’s accounting firm
in good faith to be sufficient to realize an amount of cash on an after-tax basis equal to any and all taxes that apply to the issuance or vesting of the Restricted CC New Units. 

(c) Ownership of Restricted CC New Units. Effective as of the Date of Issuance and except for any Transfers permitted by
Section 2(b)(ii), CC will hold the Restricted CC New Units, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, and claims created or caused by Barrack or CC, at all times during the period that the Transfer Restrictions apply to such Restricted CC New
Units. Without limiting the foregoing, effective as of the Date of Issuance and except for any Transfers permitted by Section 2(b)(ii), Barrack shall maintain sole direct or indirect beneficial ownership of all Restricted CC New Units, free and
clear of all liens, encumbrances, and claims created or caused by Barrack or CC, at all times during the period that the Transfer Restrictions apply to such Restricted CC New Units (it being understood that “beneficial ownership” refers to
ownership of all pecuniary and non-pecuniary rights, privileges, liabilities and obligations, and in particular shall not be limited to the meaning of “beneficial ownership” for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934). Without limiting the foregoing, until the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, Barrack shall maintain sole direct or indirect beneficial ownership, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, and claims created or caused by
Barrack or CC, of a number of New Units equal to or greater than that number of Eligible New Units that would be included in a Liquidated Damages Payment that became payable as of the date of determination. 

(d) Transfers of Equity Interests in CC Holdings and its Subsidiaries. For purposes of clarification, the transfer or issuance of equity
interests in CC Holdings or any of its subsidiaries (including CC) will not constitute a Transfer of any Restricted CC New Units owned by CC Holdings or any such subsidiaries if following such Transfer Barrack and CC continue to comply with
Section 2(c).

 3. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES[RESERVED].

 (a) If Barrack (i) violates or fails to perform his obligations under the Non-Competition Covenant contained
in Section 1(i) or 1(ii) of Exhibit A hereto, as modified by the proviso in Section 1 of Exhibit A, or (ii) otherwise violates or fails to perform his obligations under the Non-Competition Covenant in any manner that results in
material economic harm to CFI and its Affiliates (taken as a whole), in each case during the “Restricted Period” (as defined in Exhibit A hereto), and fails to cure and cease such violation within 60 days (which shall be extended to 90
days in the case of a violation that is susceptible to cure and such cure is being pursued in good faith by Barrack) after the date on which CFI gives written notice to him of such violation (a “Non-Competition
Violation”, and the date of such notice of violation, the “Date of the Non-Competition Violation”), then Barrack shall, or shall cause CC to, promptly remit to the OP a number of Closing New Units
(the “Liquidated Damages Payment”), as liquidated damages in respect of such violation and without respect to the damages actually incurred by CFI or its Affiliates as a result of such violation, determined as
follows: 
 (i) If the Date of the Non-Competition Violation occurs on or prior to the first anniversary of
the Closing Date, the Eligible New Units; 
 (ii) If the Date of the Non-Competition Violation occurs after
the first anniversary of the Closing Date but on or prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, 80% of the Eligible New Units (rounded to the nearest whole number); 

(iii) If the Date of the Non-Competition Violation occurs after the second anniversary of the Closing Date but on or
prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date, 60% of the Eligible New Units (rounded to the nearest whole number); 

(iv) If the Date of the Non-Competition Violation occurs after the third anniversary of the Closing Date but on or
prior to the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date, 40% of the Eligible New Units (rounded to the nearest whole number); 

(v) If the Date of the Non-Competition Violation occurs after the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date but on or
prior to the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, 20% of the Eligible New Units (rounded to the nearest whole number); and 

(vi) If the Date of the Non-Competition Violation occurs after the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, zero
Eligible New Units. 
 For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Eligible New Units” shall equal a number of New
Units equal to (i) a fraction, the numerator of which is (A) the CC Consideration and the denominator of which is (B) the sum of the CC Consideration and the Saltzman Consideration, multiplied by (ii) $250,000,000 divided by
(ii) the Reference CFI Stock Price.. “CC Consideration” means (A) the number of New Units received by CC under the Contribution Agreement plus (B) the difference between (x) the number of OP Common Units received by CC
pursuant to Section 3.5(h) minus (y) the Contingent Consideration Saltzman Shares (as defined in the Saltzman Share Transfer Agreement), in each case (A) and (B) multiplied by the Reference CFI Common Stock Price. “Saltzman
Consideration” means the sum of (i) (A) the number of New Shares received by Saltzman under the Saltzman Share Transfer Agreement plus (B) the number of Contingent Consideration Saltzman Shares received by Saltzman
under the Saltzman Share Transfer Agreement plus (C) the number of New Shares retained or sold by CC under the Saltzman Share Transfer Agreement or CFI under the Contribution Agreement, as applicable, in respect of payment of
tax obligations of Saltzman plus (D) the number of New Units received by Saltzman under the Contribution Agreement, in each of case (A), (B), (C) and (D), multiplied by the Reference CFI Common Stock Price plus (ii) any
amounts (if any) actually distributed to Saltzman with respect to class C Units in CCH. 

  
 5 

 (b) If an executive officer or member of the board of directors of CFI
(other than Barrack) becomes aware of a Non-Competition Violation and fails to give a written notice of violation to Barrack within 60 days after becoming so aware then CFI shall have no further right to assert a claim or entitlement to the
Liquidated Damages Payment with respect to such Non-Competition Violation.— 
 (c) Once the Liquidated
Damages Payment as provided for in Section 3(a) above has been paid in full, no further Liquidated Damages Payment shall be payable pursuant to this Agreement. 

(d) The Liquidated Damages Payment provided for in Section 3(a) above, shall be CFI’s sole remedy (other
than specific performance as provided for in the Restrictive Covenant Agreement by and between Barrack and CFI, effective as of the Closing Date (the “Restrictive Covenant Agreement”)) for breach of the Non-Competition Covenant and
Section 3 of the Restrictive Covenant Agreement and the entire economic obligation of Barrack or CC for any such breach.

[Schedule 1 to Exhibit A follows on next page] 

 Schedule 1 to Exhibit A 

Applicable Opportunity 

If Barrack seeks to pursue any investment or other opportunity that would otherwise be prohibited by this Agreement, then the determination of whether
such investment or opportunity is an “Applicable Opportunity” shall be made as follows: 

(a) Barrack shall submit (along with all material documentation provided to Barrack or otherwise then in
Barrack’s possession with respect to such Applicable Opportunity) in advance of him taking any action to engage in such Applicable Opportunity to a committee of the Board comprised of independent directors and established for the purpose of

(b) Within 10 Business Days after the date on which the investment or opportunity is submitted by Barrack, the
Conflicts Committee shall consider such investment or opportunity. 
 (c) Within 20 Business Days after the
date on which the investment or opportunity is submitted by Barrack, the Conflicts Committee shall determine that the investment or opportunity either : 

(x) is outside the scope of the Business or is a Permitted Activity, and so communicates such determination to Barrack
in writing, in which case such investment or opportunity shall be an Applicable Opportunity; 
 (y) is
within the scope of the Business and is not a Permitted Activity, but is not within the scope of the then-current business strategy of CFI and its Subsidiaries, in which case such investment or opportunity shall be an Applicable Opportunity;
or 
 (z) is within the scope of Business, is not a Permitted Activity, and is within the scope of the
then-current business strategy of CFI and its subsidiaries, in which case such investment or opportunity shall not be an Applicable Opportunity unless the Conflicts Committee determines that Barrack may nevertheless engage or seek to engage in such
investment or opportunity in his personal capacity and so communicates that determination in writing to Barrack (for the avoidance of doubt, unless the Conflicts Committee communicates such determination to Barrack in writing, such investment or
opportunity shall not be a Permitted Activity); 
 provided that if Barrack does not receive notice from the Conflicts
Committee within 20 Business Days following the date on which the investment or opportunity is submitted by Barrack, then such investment or opportunity shall be an Applicable Opportunity. Once an investment or opportunity has been determined to be
an Applicable Opportunity in accordance with this Schedule 1 to Exhibit A, CFI following such time shall have no recourse to prevent Barrack from engaging in such Applicable Opportunity or to take the position that engaging in such Applicable
Opportunity is a violation of this Agreement, the Restrictive Covenant Agreement or any agreement with respect to Fund Incentives (as defined in the Employment Agreement).

reasonable judgment exceed the extent of disclosure required by such Law. Barrack shall, to the extent legally permitted, promptly provide written notice of any such order to an authorized officer of the Company after receiving such order and
reasonably cooperate with any efforts of the Company to seek a protective order or other measure to protect the confidentiality of such information. 
 6.
Mutual Non-Disparagement. 
 (a) At all times on and following the Effective Date, Barrack shall refrain from making any disparaging
statements about the Company or any of its present or (to the extent such Persons serve in such capacity during Barrack’s employment with the Company) future officers, directors, and, in their capacity as such, employees, to any third Persons,
including, without limitation, to any press or other media, except (i) to the extent required by Law or legal process, by any Authority with apparent jurisdiction or applicable securities considerations, (ii) related to any good faith
litigation or similar proceeding between Barrack and the Company or any of such officers or directors or otherwise in connection with any good faith litigation or similar proceeding or other efforts by Barrack to enforce his rights or defend his
actions under this Agreement, the Contribution Agreement, the Lock-Up Agreement, the Employment Agreement or any other agreement with the Company or any of such officers or directors or (iii) for the making of any critical remarks about any
such Person in connection with any analyses made or opinions expressed in the ordinary course of his duties to the Company during his employment therewith. 

(b) At all times on and following the Effective Date, the senior executive officers of the Company shall not make, or cause to be made by the
Company, any disparaging or negative statements about Barrack to any third Persons, including, without limitation, to any press or other media, except (i) to the extent required by Law or legal process, by any Authority with apparent
jurisdiction or applicable securities considerations, (ii) related to any good faith litigation or similar proceeding between Barrack and the Company or otherwise in connection with any good 

  
 6 

 
faith litigation or similar proceeding by Barrack to enforce his rights or defend his actions under this Agreement, the Contribution Agreement, the Lock-Up Agreement, the Employment Agreement or
any other agreement with the Company or (iii) for the making of any critical remarks about Barrack in connection with any analyses made or opinions expressed in the ordinary course of their respective duties to the Company during their
employment therewith. 
 7. Intellectual Property. _ 

(a) Barrack agrees that all Company Materials shall be deemed “work made for hire” by the Company as the “author” and owner
to the extent permitted by United States copyright Law. To the extent (if any) that some or all of the Company Materials do not constitute “work made for hire,” Barrack hereby irrevocably assigns to the Company for good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, all right, title and interest in and to such Company Materials (including without limitation any and all copyright rights, patent rights and trademark rights and goodwill
associated therewith). The provisions of this paragraph will apply to all Company Materials which are or have been conceived or developed by Barrack, solely or jointly, whether or not further development or reduction to practice may take place after
the termination of Barrack’s employment or retention by the Company. 
 (b) Barrack further agrees that he will execute and deliver to
CFI any and all further documents or instruments and do any and all further acts which the Company reasonably requests in order to perfect, confirm, defend, police and enforce the Company’s intellectual property rights, and hereby grants to the
officers of the Company an irrevocable power of attorney, coupled with interest, to such end. Barrack shall be promptly reimbursed by the Company for all costs and expenditures incurred in connection with any cooperation referenced in this
Section 7(b). 
 8. Injunctive Relief; Other Remedies. The parties agree that the remedy at Law for any breach of this Agreement is and will be
inadequate, and in the event of a breach or threatened breach by Barrack of the provisions of Sections 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 of this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Barrack from the conduct which would constitute a
breach of this Agreement. Subject to the limitations provided for in the proviso to this sentence, nothing herein contained shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other remedies available to it or them for such breach or
threatened breach, including, without limitation, specific performance and/or the recovery of damages from Barrack; provided that the recovery of damages in respect of a breach of any of the obligations set forth in Section 3 hereof shall be
limited as provided for in the Lock-Up Agreement. 
 9. Reasonableness and Enforceability of Covenants. 

(a) The recitals to this Agreement are incorporated herein by this reference. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree with such recitals, and
further agree that the value of the consideration paid by CFI in connection with the Contribution is substantial and that preservation of the confidential and proprietary information, goodwill, stable workforce, and client and customer relations of
the Company is a material part of the consideration being provided in connection with the Contribution. 

  
 7 

 (b) The parties expressly agree that the character, duration and geographical scope of this
Agreement are reasonable in light of the circumstances as they exist on the date upon which this Agreement has been executed, including, but not limited to, Barrack’s material economic interest in the Contribution, Barrack’s importance
within the business to be contributed in the Contribution, and Barrack’s position of confidence and trust as a stockholder of CFI. 

(c) Barrack acknowledges that, (i) in connection with the Contribution, the Company will be vested with the goodwill of, and will directly
or indirectly carry on, the business of CC; (ii) the restrictive covenants and the other agreements contained herein (collectively, the “Restrictive Covenants”) are an essential part of this Agreement and the contemplated
Contribution; (iii) the contemplated Contribution is designed and intended to qualify as a sale (or other disposition) by Barrack within the meaning of BPC Section 16601 and (iv) the covenants contained in this Agreement are intended
to be and would be enforceable under BPC Section 16601. Barrack and the Company agree not to challenge the enforceability of the covenants (and the limitations and qualifications included as part thereof) contained in this Agreement. 

(d) Barrack agrees to be bound by the Restrictive Covenants and the other agreements contained in this Agreement to the maximum extent
permitted by Law, it being the intent and spirit of the parties that the Restrictive Covenants and the other agreements contained herein shall be valid and enforceable in all respects, and, subject to the terms and conditions of, and limitations and
qualifications included in, this Agreement. 
 10. Acknowledgements. Barrack acknowledges that (i) his work for the Company will continue to give
him access to the confidential affairs and proprietary information of the Company; (ii) the agreements and covenants of Barrack contained in this Agreement are essential to the business and goodwill of the Company; and (iii) CFI would not
have entered into the Contribution Agreement or the Employment Agreement but for the covenants and agreements set forth herein.

(A) the remaining terms and provisions hereof shall be unimpaired and (B) to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the invalid or unenforceable term or provision shall be deemed replaced by a term or provision that is valid and
enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision. 
 16. Arbitration. Except as
otherwise set forth in Section 8, any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement that cannot be mutually resolved by the parties hereto shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in Santa Monica, California
before a panel of three neutral arbitrators, each of whom shall be selected jointly by the parties, or, if the parties cannot agree on the selection of the arbitrators, as selected by the American Arbitration Association. The commercial arbitration
rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA Rules”) shall govern any arbitration between the parties, except that the following provisions are included in the parties’ agreement to arbitrate and override any
contrary provisions in the AAA Rules: 
  

	 	(a)	The agreement to arbitrate and the rights of the parties hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict or choice of law rules;

  

	 	(b)	The California Arbitration Act shall govern the arbitration, the agreement to arbitrate, and any proceedings to enforce, confirm, modify or vacate the award; 

 

	 	(c)	The arbitrators shall apply California law; 

  
 9 

	 	(d)	Any petition or motion to modify or vacate the award shall be filed in a Superior Court in California (the “Court”); 

 

	 	(e)	The award shall be written, reasoned, and shall include findings of fact as to all factual issues and conclusions of law as to all legal issues; 

 

	 	(f)	Either party may seek a de novo review by the Court of the conclusions of law included in the award and any petition or motion to enforce, confirm, modify or vacate the award; and 

 

	 	(g)	The arbitration shall be confidential. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrators’ award in any court having jurisdiction. 

The parties hereby agree that the arbitrators shall be empowered to enter an equitable decree mandating specific enforcement of the terms of this Agreement.
Each party shall bear its own legal fees and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in any arbitration hereunder and the parties shall share equally all expenses of the arbitrators; provided, that, the arbitrator shall have the same authority
to award reasonable attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party in any arbitration as part of the arbitrator’s award as would be the case had the dispute or controversy been argued before a court with competent jurisdiction. 

17. Definition of CFI. “CFI”
means, for purposes of this Agreement, (i) from the Effective Date through the day prior to the closing of the Merger Transaction, Colony Capital, Inc., and (ii) from and after the date of the closing of the Merger Transaction, the

 Exhibit 1 

California Labor Code Section 2870 

(a) Any provision in an employment agreement which provides that an employee shall assign, or offer to assign, any of his or her rights in an invention to his
or her employer shall not apply to an invention that the employee developed entirely on his or her own time without using the employer’s equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade secret information except for those inventions that either: 

(1) Relate at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the invention to the employer’s business, or actual or demonstrably
anticipated research or development of the employer; or 
 (2) Result from any work performed by the employee for the employer. 

(b) To the extent a provision in an employment agreement purports to require an employee to assign an invention otherwise excluded from being required to be
assigned under subdivision (a), the provision is against the public policy of this state and is unenforceable. 

 Exhibit 2 

Permitted Individuals 
 1. Teddy Elkins

 2. Kyle Forsythe 
 3. Jonathan Grunzweig 

4. Mark Hedstrom

 Schedule A 

Applicable Opportunity 

If Barrack seeks to pursue any investment or other opportunity that would otherwise be prohibited by this Agreement, then the determination of whether
such investment or opportunity is an “Applicable Opportunity” shall be made as follows: 

(a) Barrack shall submit (along with all material documentation provided to Barrack or otherwise then in
Barrack’s possession with respect to such Applicable Opportunity) in advance of him taking any action to engage in such Applicable Opportunity to a committee of the Board comprised of independent directors and established for the purpose of
making the determinations set forth in this Schedule A (the “Conflicts Committee”). 

(b) Within 10 Business Days after the date on which the investment or opportunity is submitted by Barrack, the
Conflicts Committee shall consider such investment or opportunity. 
 (c) Within 20 Business Days after the
date on which the investment or opportunity is submitted by Barrack, the Conflicts Committee shall determine that the investment or opportunity either: 

(x) is outside the scope of the Business or is a Permitted Activity, and so communicates such determination to Barrack
in writing, in which case such investment or opportunity shall be an Applicable Opportunity; 
 (y) is
within the scope of the Business and is not a Permitted Activity, but is not within the scope of the then-current business strategy of CFI and its Subsidiaries, in which case such investment or opportunity shall be an Applicable Opportunity;
or 
 (z) is within the scope of Business, is not a Permitted Activity, and is within the scope of the
then-current business strategy of CFI and its subsidiaries, in which case such investment or opportunity shall not be an Applicable Opportunity unless the Conflicts Committee determines that Barrack may nevertheless engage or seek to engage in such
investment or opportunity in his personal capacity and so communicates that determination in writing to Barrack (for the avoidance of doubt, unless the Conflicts Committee communicates such determination to Barrack in writing, such investment or
opportunity shall not be a Permitted Activity); 
 provided that if Barrack does not receive notice from the Conflicts
Committee within 20 Business Days following the date on which the investment or opportunity is submitted by Barrack, then such investment or opportunity shall be an Applicable Opportunity. Once an investment or opportunity has been
determined to be an Applicable Opportunity in accordance with this Schedule A, the Company following such time shall have no recourse to prevent Barrack from engaging in such Applicable Opportunity or to take the position that
engaging in such Applicable Opportunity is a violation of this Agreement, the Lock-Up Agreement or any agreement with respect to Fund Incentives.
