 Exhibit 10.3 
 EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 THIS EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT
AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), is entered into this 25th day of September, 2012 effective as of the 1st day of July, 2012, by and between CHAMBERS STREET PROPERTIES, a Maryland real estate investment trust, with its
principal place of business at 47 Hulfish Street, Suite 210, Princeton, New Jersey 08542 (the “Company”), CSP OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership with its principal place of business at 47 Hulfish
Street, Suite 210, Princeton, New Jersey 08542 (the “OP”) and MARTIN A. REID, an individual resident of the State of Maryland (“Executive”). 

WHEREAS, the Company and the OP wish to employ Executive as their Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President, and Executive
wishes to serve in such position, on the terms and conditions set forth herein; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the
mutual covenants and undertakings herein contained, the Company, the OP and Executive, each intending to be legally bound, covenant and agree as follows: 
 1. Employment and Term. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company and the OP each hereby employs Executive as its Chief Financial Officer and
Executive Vice President, and Executive hereby accepts such employment, for an initial term commencing on July 1, 2012 (the “Effective Date”) and, unless otherwise earlier terminated pursuant to Section 4 hereof,
continuing for a period ending on December 31, 2015 (hereinafter referred to as the “Initial Term”), provided that the Initial Term shall automatically be extended for successive one-year periods (each, an “Additional
Term” and, together with the Initial Term, the “Term”) on the last day of the Initial Term or each Additional Term hereof unless the Company or Executive notifies the other of non-renewal in writing, in accordance with
Section 6.9, at least one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or the applicable Additional Term. 
 2. Duties. During the Term, Executive shall be employed by the Company as Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President of the Company and of the OP and, as such, Executive shall
faithfully and to the best of his ability perform for the Company and the OP the duties of such offices and shall perform such other duties of an executive, managerial or administrative nature, which are consistent with such offices, as shall be
specified and designated from time to time by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company or Board of Trustees of the Company (the “Board”), and as an officer, manager, agent, trustee or other representative with respect to any
subsidiary, affiliate or joint venture of the Company (each a “Subsidiary”) consistent with Executive’s position as Chief Financial Officer; provided, however, that Executive’s service in such positions with a joint
venture or affiliate that is not a majority owned subsidiary shall be subject to the mutual agreement of Executive and the Company. The Executive shall report to the Board, the Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Officer. Subject to the
discretion of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board, Executive shall continue to serve as a member of the Board and, at the request of the Board, as a member of the board of directors (or equivalent) of any Subsidiary
without additional compensation. Executive shall devote his business time and effort exclusively to the performance of his duties hereunder and shall not be employed by or provide business services to any other person or entity. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, nothing herein shall prohibit Executive from (i) engaging in personal investment activities for Executive and his family that do not give rise to any conflict of interests with the Company or its affiliates; (ii) subject to
prior approval of the Board, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, accepting directorships unrelated to the Company that do not give rise to any conflict of interests with the Company or its affiliates; and (iii) engaging in
charitable and civic activities, so long as such activities and outside interests described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) hereof do not interfere, in any material respect, with the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder. The
Executive shall perform his duties at the principal office of the Company. 
 3. Compensation. 

3.1 Salary. The Company shall pay Executive during the Term an initial base salary at the rate of $450,000.00 per
annum (the “Base Salary”), in accordance with the customary payroll practices of the Company applicable to executive officers. The Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) may provide for
such increases in Base Salary as it may in its discretion deem appropriate; any such increase shall be deemed thereafter the Base Salary for purposes of this Agreement. The Base Salary shall not be decreased during the Term without the written
consent of Executive. The Base Salary shall be reviewed by the Compensation Committee on or about the first year anniversary of the Effective Date. 
 3.2 Cash Bonus. For each calendar year during the Term that the Executive is employed by the Company, the Company shall pay Executive a cash bonus (the “Cash Bonus”), the amount of
which will be determined by the Compensation Committee in accordance with an executive compensation program to be approved by the Compensation Committee within a reasonable period of time following the date the Agreement is executed by all of the
parties hereto (the “Compensation Program”); provided Executive shall only be entitled to receive a Cash Bonus with respect to a calendar year if Executive remains employed by the Company through the date of payment. The target Cash
Bonus for Executive will be $400,000.00 per annum (the “Target Cash Bonus”). The Compensation Program will establish metrics applicable to the business performance of the Company and the

 
Executive’s performance which, along with the exercise of discretion by the Compensation Committee, will determine the amount of the Executive’s Cash Bonus award on an annual basis. The
Cash Bonus shall be payable no later than thirty (30) days after the completion of the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements for the applicable calendar year, but no later than March 15 of the calendar year following the
end of the calendar year for which such bonus has been earned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive’s Cash Bonus for calendar year 2012 will be based on six (6) months of employment. 

3.3 Long Term Incentive Award. For each calendar year during the Term that the Executive is employed by the Company,
the Company shall provide Executive a long term equity incentive award (the “Long Term Incentive Award”); provided Executive shall only be entitled to receive a Long Term Incentive Award with respect to a calendar year if Executive
remains employed by the Company at the end of such calendar year. For calendar years 2012 and 2013, the award will consist of restricted common shares of the Company, the amount of which will be determined by the Compensation Committee in accordance
with the Compensation Program. For calendar years during the Term following 2013, the award may be in any form of equity-based award authorized by the Company’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan or any other equity-based plan as in effect from time to
time (“Incentive Plan”), the form and amount of which will be determined by the Compensation Committee in accordance with the Compensation Program and the Incentive Plan. The annual target Long Term Incentive Award for Executive
will be 65,000 restricted common shares of the Company (subject to appropriate adjustments for share splits, share dividends, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other similar events) or, if the award is another form of equity-based award, the
reasonable equivalent thereof. The Compensation Program will establish metrics applicable to the business performance of the Company and the Executive’s performance which, along with the exercise of discretion by the Compensation Committee,
will determine the amount of the Executive’s Long Term Incentive Award on an annual basis and whether a portion of the Long Term Incentive Award will be subject to performance-based metrics with respect to awards granted in 2014 and in
subsequent years during the Term. Each Long Term Incentive Award shall be subject to the Incentive Plan pursuant to which such Long Term Incentive Award is granted and any award agreement pursuant to which such Long Term Incentive Award is granted.
For awards in the form of restricted shares, one-third (1/3) of the common shares underlying each Long Term Incentive Award shall vest on each of the first (1st), second (2nd) and third (3rd) anniversary of the date of such award,
provided that the Executive is employed by the Company on the applicable date of vesting. With respect to other forms of equity-based awards and restricted share awards granted in 2014 and subsequent years, the Compensation Committee may establish
performance-based metrics applicable to the business performance of the Company in addition to any time based vesting. The Company shall issue to Executive the Long Term Incentive Award no later than thirty (30) days after the completion of the
audit of the Company’s annual financial statements for the applicable calendar year, but no later than March 15 of the calendar year following the end of the calendar year for which such award has been earned. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Executive’s Long Term Incentive Award for calendar year 2012 will be based on six (6) months of employment. 
 3.4 Transactional Award. If the Company achieves a Liquidity Event (as hereinafter defined) within two (2) years after the Effective Date, an award of 75,000 restricted common shares of the
Company which award shall be (i) granted no later than sixty (60) days after the completion of the Liquidity Event, and (ii) subject to the terms of the Incentive Plan and the award agreement pursuant to which it is granted. For the
purposes of this Section 3.4(c), a “Liquidity Event” means (x) any merger, sale or other transaction in which shareholders of the Company receive, in exchange for at least a majority of their shares in the Company, cash or
stock of a company that is listed on or admitted to trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange or another national securities exchange or designated for quotation on the NASDAQ Global Select Market or the NASDAQ Global
Market, or any successor to any of the foregoing (each, a “National Stock Exchange”) (other than a cash or stock dividend from the general partner of the Company); or (y) any portion of the Company’s common shares become
listed or admitted to trading on or designated for quotation on a National Stock Exchange. If the Company is not a surviving entity following the Liquidity Event, then in lieu of the restricted share award set forth in this Section 3.4,
Executive shall be entitled to receive the consideration he would have received if the restricted share award pursuant to this Section 3.4 had been granted to Executive immediately prior to the Liquidity Event. 

3.5 Employee Benefits. So long as Executive is employed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, he shall be
included as a participant in all present and future employee benefit and retirement plans and prerequisites of the Company available to its executive officers, consistent with his position with the Company, and Executive and his dependents shall
have the right to be included in the Company’s hospitalization, major medical, disability and group life insurance plans. Executive acknowledges that, notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Agreement, any of the Company’s benefit
plans and programs may be modified from time to time and that the Company is not required to continue any plan or program currently in effect or adopted hereafter; provided, however, that each of the above benefits shall continue in
effect on terms no less favorable than those then in effect for other executive officers of the Company (as permitted by law) during the Term hereof. 
 3.6 Vacation. Vacation and other paid time-off (PTO) shall be taken and provided in accordance with the Company’s vacation and PTO policies and plans for executive officers. Unused vacation shall
not accrue or carry over from year to year.

 3.7 Expenses. During the Term, the Company and the OP shall reimburse
Executive for all reasonable business expenses incurred by Executive in the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder in accordance with the Company’s and OP’s policies as in effect from time to time for executive officers.

 3.8 Clawback. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement to the contrary, any bonus,
incentive-based, equity-based or other similar compensation paid to Executive pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement or arrangement with the Company which is required to be recovered under any law, government regulation or stock exchange
listing requirement will be subject to such deductions and clawback as may be required to be made pursuant to such law, government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement (or any policy adopted by the Company pursuant to any such law,
government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement). 
 4. Termination. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 4 shall exclusively govern Executive’s rights (except as otherwise expressly set forth herein) upon termination of employment with the Company. Following Executive’s termination of
employment, except as set forth in this Section 4, Executive (and Executive’s legal representative and estate) shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement.

reasonable duties and responsibilities as an employee or director of the Company or any Subsidiary. No termination of Executive’s employment shall be a termination for Cause unless the Board shall first (x) have given Executive written
notice specifying in reasonable detail the occurrences claimed to constitute Cause and (y) in the case of any occurrence described in clauses (i), (ii), (iv), (vii) (viii) or (ix), have given Executive a ten (10) business day
opportunity cure such occurrence, if curable, and such occurrence thereafter remains uncured. For purposes of this Agreement, no act, or failure to act, on Executive’s part shall be considered “willful” unless Executive acted, or

 (d) “Disability” means physical or mental incapacity that constitutes a disability for purposes of Executive receiving disability payments pursuant to the Company’s long term disability

essential functions of Executive’s duties. 
 (e) “Good Reason” shall be present where

(B) shall not be deemed to exist at any time while there exists an event or condition which could serve as the basis of a termination of Executive’s employment for Cause; and (2) if there exists an event or condition that constitutes
Good Reason, the Company shall have thirty (30) days from the date notice of Good Reason is given to cure such event or condition and, if the Company does so, such event or condition shall not constitute Good Reason hereunder; and if the
Company does not cure such event or condition within such thirty (30) day period, Executive shall have ten (10) business days thereafter to give the Company notice of termination of employment on account thereof (specifying a termination

employment 

  
 - 4 -

 
pursuant to this Section 4.3, each grant made to Executive pursuant to the Incentive Plan or any similar plan (including, without limitation, any Long Term Incentive Award) that is subject
to a time-based or performance-based vesting condition shall become vested immediately. Executive or his estate shall have (i) ninety (90) days (or in the case of Executive’s estate, ninety (90) days from the appointment of the
executor or other legal representative of the estate); or (ii) the period specified in the grant or award, whichever is greater, to exercise any rights contained in any such grant or award that are subject to exercise by Executive. 

4.4 Termination by the Company without Cause or Resignation by Executive for Good Reason. The Term and
Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated by the Company without Cause at any time and for any reason or by Executive’s resignation for Good Reason at any time upon ten (10) days written notice by the terminating party,
although the Company may waive services during that period. If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause (other than by reason of death or Disability) or if Executive resigns for Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled
to receive (i) the Accrued Rights, plus (ii) an amount equal to Executive’s annual Base Salary at the time of termination, which amount shall be payable over a one (1) year period in accordance with the Company’s customary
payroll practices (subject to Section 6.1), plus an amount equal to Executive’s Target Cash Bonus for the calendar year in which the termination occurs, which amount shall be payable in accordance with the Company’s customary payroll
practices (subject to Section 6.1) within thirty (30) days after Executive signs and delivers to the Company the General Release referenced in Section 4.7. In the event of a termination of employment pursuant to this Section 4.4,
each grant previously made to Executive pursuant to the Incentive Plan or any similar plan (including, without limitation, any Long Term Incentive Award) (i) that is subject to a time-based vesting condition will become vested immediately, and
(ii) that is subject to subsequent performance-based conditions will be considered to be vested and earned at the target level of performance. Executive shall have (a) ninety (90) days or (b) the period specified in the grant or
award, whichever is greater, to exercise any rights contained in any such grant or award that are subject to exercise by Executive. 
 4.5 Termination following a Change of Control. In the event that Executive’s employment hereunder is terminated by the Company or its successor, for any reason or no reason, within one hundred
eighty (180) days following a Change of Control, Executive shall be entitled to receive (i) the Accrued Rights, plus (ii) an amount equal to two (2) times Executive’s annual Base Salary at the time of termination, plus
(iii) an amount equal to two (2) times Executive’s Target Cash Bonus for the year in which the termination occurs, which amount shall be payable no later than thirty (30) days after the date of termination in accordance with the
Company’s customary payroll practices (subject to Section 6.1). In the event of a termination of employment pursuant to this Section 4.5, each grant previously made to Executive pursuant to the Incentive Plan or any similar plan
(i) that is subject to a time-based vesting condition will become vested immediately, and (ii) that is subject to subsequent performance-based conditions will be considered to be vested and earned at the target level of performance.
Executive shall have (a) ninety (90) days or (b) the period specified in the grant or award, whichever is greater, to exercise those rights. 
 4.6 Termination of Employment by Expiration of the Term. If the Company or Executive notifies the other that it is not renewing the Initial Term or any Additional Term in accordance with
Section 1 hereof, Executive’s employment with the Company shall terminate upon the expiration of the Term and Executive shall be entitled to receive the Accrued Rights. For the avoidance of doubt, the delivery by the Company to Executive,
or by the Executive to the Company, of written notice indicating that it or he intends not to extend the Term as provided in Section 1 prior to the expiration of the then operative Initial Term or Additional Term shall not be deemed a
termination of Executive’s employment by the Company without Cause or by the Executive with Good Reason, as applicable. 
 4.7 General Release. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Executive shall not be entitled to receive any payments, other than the Accrued Rights, pursuant to Section 4.4 or
Section 4.5 hereof (and Executive shall forfeit all rights to such payments) unless Executive has executed and delivered to the Company a general release substantially in form and substance as attached hereto as Exhibit A (the
“General Release”), and such General Release remains in full force and effect, has not been revoked and is no longer subject to revocation, within thirty (30) days after the Executive’s date of termination, and Executive
shall be entitled to receive such payments only so long as Executive has not materially breached any of the provisions of the General Release (as specified in and subject to the limitations set forth in Paragraph 9 of the General Release) or
Section 5 hereof without cure of any such breach within ten (10) business days after a notice from the Company specifying the breach. If the General Release is executed and delivered and no longer subject to revocation as provided in the
preceding sentence, then the following shall apply: 
 (a) To the extent any such cash payment to be made is not
“nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, then such payment shall commence upon the first scheduled payment date immediately after the date the General Release is executed and no longer subject to
revocation (the “Release Effective Date”). The first such cash payment shall include payment of all amounts that otherwise would have been due prior to the Release Effective Date under the terms of this Agreement applied as though
such payments commenced immediately upon the termination of Executive’s employment, and any payments made after the Release Effective Date shall continue as provided herein. The delayed payments shall in any event expire at the time such
payments would have expired had such payments commenced immediately following the termination of Executive’s employment. 

  
 - 5 -

 (b) To the extent any such cash payment to be made is “deferred
compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, then such payment shall be made or commence on the sixtieth (60th) day following the termination of Executive’s employment. The first such cash payment shall include payment of all
amounts that otherwise would have been due prior thereto under the terms of this Agreement had such payments commenced immediately upon the termination of Executive’s employment and any payments made after the sixtieth (60th) day following
the termination of Executive’s employment shall continue as provided herein. The delayed payments shall in any event expire at the time such payments would have expired had such payments commenced immediately following the termination of
Executive’s employment. 
 4.8 Notice of Termination. Any purported termination of employment by the
Company or by Executive (other than due to Executive’s death) shall be communicated by written notice to the other party, which notice shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and the date of employment
termination, and, for a termination by the Company for Cause or a resignation by Executive with Good Reason, set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of employment under the provision so
indicated and the date of employment termination. 
 4.9 Employee Termination and Board/Committee/Officer
Resignation. Upon termination of Executive’s employment for any reason, Executive’s employment with each of the Company and each Subsidiary shall be terminated and Executive shall be deemed to resign, as of the date of such termination
and to the extent applicable, from the Board (and any committees thereof) and from any boards of directors (and any committees thereof) of any Subsidiary and as an officer of the Company and any Subsidiary. Executive shall confirm such
resignation(s) in writing to the Company. 
 4.10 Excess Parachute Payments. 

(a) Certain Reductions in Agreement Payments. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event a nationally recognized independent accounting firm designated by the Company and reasonably acceptable to Executive (the
“Accounting Firm”) shall determine that receipt of all payments or distributions by the Company and any Subsidiary and each of their respective affiliates in the nature of compensation to or for Executive’s benefit, whether
paid or payable pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise (a “Payment”), would subject Executive to the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the Accounting
Firm shall determine as required below in this Section 4.10(a) whether to reduce any of the Payments paid or payable pursuant to this Agreement (the “Agreement Payments”) to the Reduced Amount (as defined in
Section 4.10(d)). The Agreement Payments shall be reduced to the Reduced Amount only if the Accounting Firm determines that Executive would have a greater Net After-Tax Receipt (as defined in Section 4.10(d)) of aggregate Payments if
Executive’s Agreement Payments were so reduced. If the Accounting Firm determines that Executive would not have a greater Net After-Tax Receipt of aggregate Payments if Executive’s Agreement Payments were so reduced, then Executive shall
receive all Agreement Payments to which Executive is entitled. 
 (b)
Accounting Firm Determinations. If the Accounting Firm determines that aggregate Agreement Payments should be reduced to the Reduced
Amount, the Company shall promptly give Executive notice to that effect and a copy of the detailed calculation thereof. All determinations made by the Accounting Firm under this Section 4.10 shall be binding upon the Company and Executive
(absent manifest error) and shall be made as soon as reasonably practicable and in no event later than fifteen (15) days following the date of Executive’s termination. For purposes of reducing the Agreement Payments to the Reduced Amount,
only amounts payable under this Agreement (and no other Payments) shall be reduced. The reduction of the amounts payable hereunder, if applicable, shall first be made by first reducing or eliminating those payments or benefits which are payable in
cash and then by reducing or eliminating payments which are not payable in cash, in each case in reverse order beginning with payments or benefits which are to be paid the farthest in time from date of Executive’s termination. For this purpose,
where multiple payments or benefits are to be paid at the same time, they shall be reduced or eliminated on a pro rata basis. 
 (c) Overpayments; Underpayments. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of
Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that amounts will have been paid or distributed by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive pursuant to this Agreement
which should not have been so paid or distributed (an “Overpayment”) or that additional amounts which will have not been paid or distributed by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive pursuant to this Agreement which should
have been so paid or distributed (an “Underpayment”), in each case consistent with the calculation of the Reduced Amount hereunder. In the event that the Accounting Firm, based upon the assertion of a deficiency by the Internal
Revenue Service against either the Company or Executive which the Accounting Firm believes has a high probability of success determines that an Overpayment has been made, Executive shall pay any such Overpayment to the Company together with interest
at the applicable federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2) of the Code; provided, however, that no amount shall be payable by Executive to the Company if and to the extent such payment would not either reduce the amount on
which Executive is subject to tax under Section 1 and Section 4999 of the Code or generate a refund of such taxes. In the event that the Accounting Firm, based 

  
 - 6 -

 
upon controlling precedent or substantial authority, determines that an Underpayment has occurred, any such Underpayment shall be paid promptly (and in no event later than sixty (60) days
following the date on which the Underpayment is determined) by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive together with interest at the applicable federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2) of the Code. 

(d)
Definitions. The following terms shall have the following meanings for purposes of this Section 4.10: 

(i) “Reduced Amount” shall mean the greatest amount of Agreement Payments that can be paid that would not
result in the imposition of the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code. 
 (ii) “Net After-Tax
Receipt” shall mean the present value (as determined in accordance with Sections 280G(b)(2)(A)(ii) and 280G(d)(4) of the Code) of a Payment net of all taxes imposed on Executive with respect thereto under Sections 1 and 4999 of the Code and
under applicable state and local laws, determined by applying the highest marginal rate under Section 1 of the Code and under state and local laws which applied to Executive’s taxable income for the immediately preceding taxable year, or
such other rate(s) as the Accounting Firm determined to be likely to apply to Executive in the relevant taxable year(s). 
 (e) Fees and Expenses. All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be paid solely by the
Company. 
 5. Restrictive Covenants. 

5.1 Confidentiality. Executive acknowledges that, in his employment hereunder, he will occupy a position of trust and
confidence with the Company and its Subsidiaries. Executive agrees that he shall not, during the Term or anytime thereafter, except (i) as may be required to perform his duties hereunder or as required by applicable law or legal process;
(ii) until such information shall have become public other than by Executive’s unauthorized disclosure; or (iii) with the prior written consent of the Company, use, disclose or disseminate any trade secrets, confidential information
or any other information of a secret, proprietary, confidential or undisclosed nature relating to the Company or any Subsidiary, or their respective businesses, contracts, projects, proposed projects, revenues, costs, operations, methods or
procedures. This provision shall be in addition to all requirements of applicable law with respect to maintaining the secrecy and confidentiality of trade secrets. Notwithstanding anything herein or otherwise to the contrary, Executive shall be
permitted to retain his personal papers and contact information, and such other documents relating to his compensation and other entitlements. 
 5.2 Non-solicitation. During the Term and for the two (2) year period thereafter, Executive shall not, unless such solicitation is made on behalf of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries or such
solicitation is made with the Company’s prior written consent, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit or encourage to leave the employment or other service of the Company, or any of its Subsidiaries, (except in connection with the termination
of an employee in a manner consistent with Executive’s responsibilities as Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President of the Company and in compliance with the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ policies) any managerial-level
employee of, or independent contractor providing managerial-level services to, the Company or its Subsidiaries, where the independent contractor performs a substantial portion of his or her services for the Company; or (ii) solicit for
employment (on behalf of Executive or any other person or entity) any former managerial-level employee of or independent contractor providing managerial-level services to the Company (where the independent contractor in the last year of service to
the Company has performed a substantial portion of his or her services for the Company) who has left the employment of or discontinued providing services to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries within the then prior one-year period. During the
Term and for the two (2) year period thereafter, Executive will not, whether for his own account or for the account of any other person, firm, corporation or other business organization, intentionally interfere with the Company’s or any of
its Subsidiaries’ relationship with, or endeavor to entice away from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any person who during the Term is or was a tenant, co-investor, co-developer, joint venturer or other customer of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries. 
 5.3 Non-competition. During the Term and for a period of one (1) year thereafter,
unless Employee has obtained the prior written approval of the Board, Executive shall not in any location in the United States of America: (i) engage in a Competing Business for Executive’s own account; (ii) enter the employ of, or
render any consulting or any other services to, any entity that is substantially engaged in a Competing Business; or (iii) become financially interested in any entity substantially engaged in a Competing Business, including, without limitation,
as an individual, partner, shareholder, officer, director or principal; provided, however, Executive may own, directly or indirectly, solely as a passive investment, two percent (2%) or less of any class of securities of any
entity traded on any national securities exchange and any assets acquired in compliance with this Section 5.3. “Competing Business” shall mean a real estate investment trust that is required to file periodic reports pursuant to
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and that is engaged in the business of acquiring, owning, operating, managing or leasing office or industrial real estate properties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this
Section 5.3 shall not apply if Executive’s employment with the Company terminates at the end of the Initial Term or any Additional Term as a result of the Company 

  
 - 7 -

 
notifying Executive that it is not renewing the Initial Term or Additional Term (as applicable) in accordance with the Section 4.6 or if Executive’s employment is terminated by the
Company or its successor, for any reason or no reason, within one hundred eighty (180) days following a Change of Control. 
 5.4 Non-disparagement. 
 (a) Executive agrees not to take any
action or say anything to any person during the Term or during the one (1) year period immediately following any termination of Executive’s employment hereunder that is intended to: (i) disparage the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
or their respective managers, officers, boards of trustees, boards of directors, or practices, services or products; (ii) disrupt or impair the normal, ongoing business operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (iii) harm
the Company’s reputation with its employees, customers, clients, suppliers, investors or the public. 
 (b)
During the one (1) year period immediately following any termination of Executive’s employment hereunder, the Company, the OP, the Board and the executive officers of the Company, the OP and the Subsidiaries, shall not make any statements
that are intended to disparage Executive or harm his reputation. 
 (c) Nothing in this Agreement or elsewhere shall
preclude the Company, the OP or Executive from making truthful statements that are required by applicable law, regulation or legal process, that are reasonably necessary to enforce the terms of this Agreement, or that are made in confidence to any
attorney for the purpose of securing legal advice. 
 5.5 Company Policies. During the Term, Executive shall
be subject to and abide by all written policies and procedures of the Company provided to him, including, without limitation, policies regarding the protection of confidential information and intellectual property and potential conflicts of
interest, except to the extent that such policies and procedures conflict with the other provisions of this Agreement, in which case this Agreement shall control. Executive acknowledges that the Company may amend any such policies and guidelines
from time to time, and that Executive remains at all times bound by their most current version to the extent made known to him. 
 5.6 Intellectual Property. As between Executive and the Company, the Company shall be the sole owner of all the products and proceeds of Executive’s services hereunder including, without
limitation, all materials, ideas, concepts, formats, suggestions, developments and other intellectual properties that Executive may acquire, obtain, develop or create during the Term in connection with his services hereunder, free and clear of any
claims by Executive (or on behalf of Executive) of any kind or character whatsoever (other than Executive’s rights and benefits hereunder). Executive shall, at the request of the Company, execute such assignments, certificates or other
instruments as the Company may from time to time deem reasonably necessary or desirable to evidence, establish, maintain, perfect, protect, enforce or defend the Company’s right, title and interest in and to any such products and proceeds of
Executive’s services hereunder (provided that any such assignment, certificate or instrument shall not require Executive to assign or transfer any rights in such intellectual property owned by any third party, if any). 

5.7 General; Continuing Effect of Section 5. Executive and the Company intend that: (i) this Section 5
concerning (among other things) the exclusive services of Executive to the Company or its Subsidiaries shall be construed as a series of separate covenants; (ii) if any portion of the restrictions set forth in this Section 5 should, for
any reason whatsoever, be declared invalid by an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction, then the validity or enforceability of the remainder of such restrictions shall not thereby be adversely affected; and (iii) Executive declares
that the territorial and time limitations set forth in this Section 5 are reasonable and properly required for the adequate protection of the business of the Company or its Subsidiaries. In the event that any such territorial or time limitation
is deemed to be unenforceable by an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction under applicable law, Executive agrees to the reduction of the subject territorial or time limitation to the area or period which such arbitrator or court shall have
deemed enforceable. Executive acknowledges that: (a) the Company has separately bargained and paid additional consideration for the restrictive covenants set forth herein; and (b) the Company will provide certain benefits to Executive
hereunder in reliance on such covenants in view of the unique and essential nature of the services Executive will perform on behalf of the Company and the irreparable injury that would befall the Company should Executive breach such covenants.

 5.8 Specific Performance. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the confidential information,
non-solicitation, intellectual property rights and other rights of the Company referred to in Section 5 of this Agreement are each of substantial value to the Company or its Subsidiaries and affiliates and that any breach of Section 5 by
Executive would cause irreparable harm to the Company or its Subsidiaries, for which the Company or its Subsidiaries would have no adequate remedy at law. Therefore, in addition to any other remedies that may be available to the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries under this Agreement or otherwise, the Company or its Subsidiaries shall be entitled to obtain temporary restraining orders, preliminary and permanent injunctions and other equitable relief to specifically enforce Executive’s
duties and obligations under this Agreement, or to enjoin any breach of this Agreement, without the need to post a bond or other security and without the need to demonstrate special damages.

 6. Other Provisions. 

6.1 Compliance with Code Section 409A. 

(a) This Agreement shall be interpreted to avoid any penalty sanctions under Section 409A of the Code (“Section
409A”). If any payment or benefit cannot be provided or made at the time specified herein without incurring sanctions under Section 409A, then such benefit or payment shall be provided in full at the earliest time thereafter when such
sanctions will not be imposed. For purposes of Section 409A, (i) upon a termination of employment under this Agreement, Executive shall have no ongoing obligations to the Company, the OP or the Subsidiaries that would prevent Executive
from having a “separation from service” upon such termination within the meaning of such term under Section 409A; (ii) each payment made under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment; and (iii) the right to a
series of installment payments under this Agreement is to be treated as a right to a series of separate payments. In no event shall Executive, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment. 

(b) All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement shall be made or provided in accordance with the
requirements of Section 409A, including, where applicable, the requirements that (i) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during Executive’s lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in this Agreement);
(ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other calendar year; (iii) the
reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred; and (iv) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or
exchange for another benefit. 
 (c) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if, at the
time of Executive’s separation from service with the Company, the Company has securities which are publicly traded on an established securities market, Executive is a “specified employee” (as defined in Section 409A) and it is
necessary to postpone the commencement of any severance payments otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement as a result of such separation from service to prevent any accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, then the Company will
postpone the commencement of the payment of any such payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to Executive) that are not otherwise exempt from Section 409A until the first
payroll date that occurs after the date that is six (6) months following Executive’s separation from service with the Company (as determined under Section 409A). If any payments are postponed pursuant to this Section 6.1(c), then
such postponed amounts will be paid in a lump sum to Executive on the first payroll date that occurs after the date that is six (6) months following Executive’s separation from service with the Company. If Executive dies during the
postponement period prior to the payment of any postponed amount, such amount shall be paid to the personal representative of Executive’s estate within sixty (60) days after the date of Executive’s death. 

6.2 Compensation Committee. All discretionary and other actions and authority granted to the Compensation Committee by
this Agreement may be taken by the full Board or any other committee of the Board it designates if the Board does not have a Compensation Committee. 
 6.3 Indemnification. Executive shall be entitled to the same rights to indemnification (and advancement of expenses) in connection with his service as a director of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries as the other Board members and the same rights to indemnification (and advancement of expenses) in connection with his service as an executive officer of the Company, the OP or any of their Subsidiaries as any other executive officers
and such indemnification rights shall survive the termination of his employment under this Agreement. Executive’s rights to indemnification specifically include all such rights arising pursuant to, and to the fullest extent permissible under,
(i) the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws; (ii) any written agreements between the Company and its directors or officers; (iii) insurance policies providing coverage to the Company’s, the OP’s and/or any
Subsidiary’s directors, officers and employees, including any directors and officers indemnification insurance; and (iv) applicable law. During the Term and for six (6) years thereafter, Executive shall be entitled to directors’
and officers’ liability insurance coverage that is no less favorable to Executive in any respect than the coverage then provided to other directors and officers of the Company (as such coverage may be amended from time to time for such
directors and officers). 
 6.4 Executive’s Representations. 

(a) Executive hereby represents to the Company that the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Executive and the Company
and the performance by Executive of Executive’s duties hereunder shall not constitute a breach of, or otherwise contravene, the terms of any employment agreement or other agreement or policy to which Executive is a party or otherwise bound.
Executive represents and warrants that he is not subject to any employment agreement, nondisclosure agreement, common law nondisclosure obligation, fiduciary duty, noncompetition agreement, restrictive covenant or any other obligation to any former
employer or to any other person or entity in any way relating to the right or ability of Executive to be employed by or perform services for the Company and its Subsidiaries. Executive further represents and warrants that he

  
 - 9 -

 
has not brought to or disclosed to the Company or to its Subsidiaries, and covenants that he will not bring to or disclose to the Company or to its Subsidiaries or use in connection with his
employment with the Company, any trade secrets or proprietary information from any of his prior employers or from any other person or entity. 
 (b) The Company and the OP each represent and warrant that: (i) it is fully authorized by action of its Board (and of any other person or body whose action is required) to enter into this Agreement and
to perform its obligations under it; (ii) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by it does not violate any applicable law, regulation, order, judgment or decree or any agreement, plan or corporate governance document to
which it is a party or by which it is bound; and (iii) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto, this Agreement shall be a valid and binding obligation of it, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms,
except to the extent that enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally. 

6.5 Cooperation in Third-Party Disputes. During the Term and for a period of two (2) years thereafter, at the
request of the Company, Executive shall cooperate with the Company and its Subsidiaries and each of their respective attorneys or other legal representatives in connection with any claim, litigation, or judicial or arbitral proceeding which is now
pending or may hereinafter be brought against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates by any third party. Executive’s duty of cooperation shall include, but shall not be limited to, (a) meeting with the Company’s or its
Subsidiaries’ attorneys or other legal representatives by telephone or in person at mutually convenient times and places in order to state truthfully Executive’s knowledge of the matters at issue and recollection of events;
(b) appearing at the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ or their respective attorneys’ request (and, to the extent possible, at a time convenient to Executive that does not conflict with the needs or requirements of Executive’s
then-current employer or personal commitments) as a witness at depositions, trials or other proceedings, without the necessity of a subpoena, in order to state truthfully Executive’s knowledge of the matters at issue; and (c) signing at
the Company’s request declarations or affidavits that truthfully state the matters of which Executive has knowledge. Such services will be without additional compensation if Executive is then employed by the Company or any Subsidiary and for
reasonable compensation and subject to his reasonable availability if he is not so employed. The Company shall promptly reimburse Executive for Executive’s actual and reasonable travel or other out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable
attorneys’ fees) that Executive may incur in cooperating with the Company and its Subsidiaries under this Section 6.5. 
 6.6 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction and subject to this paragraph be ineffective to
the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without affecting in any way the remaining provisions hereof in such jurisdiction or rendering that or any other provisions of this Agreement invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any
other jurisdiction. If any covenant should be deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable because its scope is considered excessive, such covenant shall be modified so that the scope of the covenant is reduced only to the minimum extent necessary to
render the modified covenant valid, legal and enforceable. 
 6.7 Construction. Whenever the singular number
is used in this Agreement and when required by the context, the same shall include the plural and vice versa, and the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter genders and vice versa. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience
only and are in no way intended to describe, interpret, define or limit the scope, extent or intent of this Agreement or any of its provisions. All references to the Company in this Agreement shall include, unless the context otherwise requires, all
Subsidiaries and controlled affiliates of the Company. The parties acknowledge that this Agreement is the result of arm’s-length negotiations between sophisticated parties represented 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. 

6.8 Arbitration. Except as necessary for the Company and its Subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or assigns or
Executive to specifically enforce or enjoin a breach of this Agreement (to the extent such remedies are otherwise available), the parties agree that any controversy, claim, dispute or question arising out of or relating to, or in connection with
this Agreement or its interpretation, performance or nonperformance, or any breach thereof, or termination of employee’s employment, or any other aspect of the employment relationship between Executive and the Company whether arising in tort,
contract, statute, regulation or otherwise, including without limitation claims of discrimination, harassment or retaliation under any federal, state or local law or regulation, or any other dispute by and between the parties or their subsidiaries,
affiliates, successors or assigns related thereto, shall be submitted to binding arbitration in Manhattan, New York according to New York law and the rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association. The decision of the arbitrators shall
be final and binding as to any matter submitted to them under this Agreement, and judgment on any award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The parties agree that each party shall bear its or his own
expenses incurred in connection with any such dispute. For the avoidance of doubt, no counsel for any party shall be disqualified from representing such counsel’s clients in connection with any dispute hereunder as a result of such
counsel’s role in negotiating or drafting this Agreement.

 Exhibit A 
 GENERAL RELEASE 
 I, Martin A. Reid, in consideration of and subject to
the performance by CHAMBERS STREET PROPERTIES, a Maryland real estate investment trust, (together with its subsidiaries and CSP Operating Partnership, LP, the “Company”), of its obligations under the Executive Employment
Agreement, dated as of July 1, 2012 (the “Agreement”), do hereby release and forever discharge as of the date hereof the Company and its affiliates and all present and former managers, directors, officers, agents,
representatives, employees, successors and assigns of the Company and its affiliates and the Company’s direct and indirect owners (collectively, the “Released Parties”) to the extent provided below. 

1. I understand that any payments or benefits (other than the Accrued Rights) paid or granted to me under Section 4.4 or
Section 4.5 of the Agreement represent, in part, consideration for signing this General Release and are not salary, wages or benefits to which I was already entitled. I understand and agree that I will not receive the payments and benefits
(other than the Accrued Rights) specified in Section 4.4 or Section 4.5 of the Agreement unless I execute this General Release and do not revoke this General Release within the time period permitted hereafter or breach this General
Release. Such payments and benefits will not be considered compensation for purposes of any employee benefit plan, program, policy or arrangement maintained or hereafter established by the Company or its affiliates. 

2. Except as provided in paragraphs 4 and 13 below, I knowingly and voluntarily (for myself, my heirs, executors, administrators and
assigns) release and forever discharge the Company and the other Released Parties from any and all claims, suits, controversies, actions, causes of action, cross-claims, counter-claims, demands, debts, compensatory damages, liquidated damages,
punitive or exemplary damages, other damages, claims for costs and attorneys’ fees, or liabilities of any nature whatsoever in law and in equity, both past and present (through the date I executed this General Release) and whether known or
unknown, suspected, or claimed against the Company or any of the Released Parties which I, my spouse, or any of my heirs, executors, administrators or assigns, may have, which arise out of or are connected with my employment with, or my separation
or termination from, the Company (including, but not limited to, any allegation, claim or violation, arising under: Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; the Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of
1967, as amended (including the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act) (collectively, “ADEA”); the Equal Pay Act of 1963, as amended; the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; the Worker
Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; any applicable Executive Orders; the anti-retaliation provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act; or their state or local counterparts, including,
without limitation, the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination, N.J.S.A. 10:5-1 et seq. (NJLAD); the Conscientious Employee Protection Act, N.J.S.A. 34:19-1 et seq. (CEPA); the New Jersey Family Leave Act, N.J.S.A. 34:11B-1 et seq. (NJFLA); The New
Jersey Workers’ Compensation Act, N.J.S.A. 34:15-1 et seq. (to the extent permitted by law); the New Jersey Wage and Hour Laws, N.J.S.A. 34:11-56a et seq. (to the extent permitted by law); or under any other federal, state or local civil or
human rights law, or under any other local, state, or federal law, regulation or ordinance; or under any public policy, contract or tort, or under common law; or arising under any policies, practices or procedures of the Company; or any claim for
wrongful discharge, breach of contract, infliction of emotional distress, defamation; or any claim for costs, fees, or other expenses, including attorneys’ fees incurred in these matters) (all of the foregoing collectively referred to herein as
the “Claims”). 
 3. I represent that I have made no assignment or transfer of any right, claim, demand, cause of
action, or other matter covered by paragraph 2 above. 
 4. I agree that this General Release does not waive or release any rights
or claims: (i) that I may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 which arise after the date I execute this General Release, (ii) that are provided under (or preserved by) the Agreement, or (iii) against those
associated with the Company that do not relate to my employment with the Company or the termination of my employment. I acknowledge and agree that my separation from employment with the Company shall not serve as the basis for any Claim (including,
without limitation, any claim under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967). This General Release is not intended to, and does not, forfeit any vested benefits that I have under any Company plan. 

5. I agree that I am waiving all rights to sue or obtain equitable, remedial or punitive relief from any or all Released Parties of any kind
whatsoever, including, without limitation, reinstatement, back pay, front pay, attorneys’ fees and any form of injunctive relief, with respect to any Claim. Notwithstanding the above, I further acknowledge that I am not waiving and am not being
required to waive any right that cannot be waived under applicable law, including the right to file an administrative charge or participate in an administrative investigation or proceeding; provided, however, that I disclaim and waive any right to
share or participate in any monetary award resulting from the prosecution of such charge or investigation or proceeding. 

  
 A-1 

 6. In signing this General Release, I acknowledge and intend that it shall be effective as a
bar to each and every one of the Claims hereinabove mentioned or implied. I expressly consent that this General Release shall be given full force and effect according to each and all of its express terms and provisions, including those relating to
unknown and unsuspected Claims (notwithstanding any state statute that expressly limits the effectiveness of a general release of unknown, unsuspected and unanticipated Claims), if any, as well as those relating to any other Claims hereinabove
mentioned or implied. I acknowledge and agree that this waiver is an essential and material term of this General Release and that without such waiver the Company would not have agreed to the terms of the Agreement. I further agree that in the event
I should bring a Claim seeking damages against the Company, or in the event I should seek to recover against the Company in any Claim brought by a governmental agency on my behalf, this General Release shall serve as a complete defense to such
Claims to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. 
 7. I acknowledge that I may hereafter discover claims or facts in

 A-3Form of Restricted Share Award Agreement.

 Exhibit 10.4 
 FORM OF RESTRICTED SHARE AWARD AGREEMENT 
 This Restricted Share Award
Agreement (this “Agreement”) by and between Chambers Street Properties, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the “Company”) and             (the
“Grantee”), dated the             day of             , 2012 (the “Award Date”).

 WHEREAS, the Company maintains the Amended and Restated 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”)
(capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto by the Plan); 
 WHEREAS,
under the Plan the Company may grant awards to its employees, trustees and other persons who provide significant services to the Company; 
 WHEREAS, the Company has retained Grantee as its [            ] pursuant to the Executive Employment Agreement, entered into on [__]
between the Company and the Grantee (the “Employment Agreement”); 
 WHEREAS, the Grantee is an employee of the Company,
and performs services for the Company; and 
 WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the
Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to grant common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the
“Shares”) to the Grantee subject to the terms and conditions set forth below. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY AGREED AS
FOLLOWS: 
 1. Grant of Shares. 
 The Company hereby grants the Grantee             Shares (the “Restricted Share Award”), subject to the following terms and
conditions and subject to the provisions of the Plan. The Plan is hereby incorporated herein by reference as though set forth herein in its entirety. The Grantee hereby accepts the Shares on such terms and conditions. 

2. Vesting and Forfeiture. 
 (a) General Vesting Rule. Grantee’s interest in his or her Restricted Share Award (rounding down to the nearest whole share) will vest and become nonforfeitable as follows: One third of the
Shares subject to this Restricted Share Award will vest and become nonforfeitable on each anniversary of the Award Date until the Grantee becomes fully vested in all Shares subject to this Agreement provided (i) Grantee has signed this
Agreement and (ii) Grantee has remained continuously employed by the Company from the Award Date through the respective anniversary of the Award Date. 
 (b) Accelerated Vesting in the Event of Termination in Certain Circumstances. The provisions of Sections 6.3(iii) and 6.3(iv) of the Plan shall not apply to this Restricted Share Award. In the event
that Grantee’s employment with the Company terminates, the Shares subject to this Restricted Share Award shall be subject to accelerated vesting to the extent, and only to the extent, set forth in the Employment Agreement. 

(c) Forfeiture. Except as set forth in Section 2(b) hereof, if Grantee’s employment with the Company
terminates for any reason before his or her interest in all of the Shares subject to this Restricted Share Award have become vested and nonforfeitable under this Section 2, then Grantee shall forfeit his or her right to receive all such Shares
subject to this Restricted Share Award which have not become so vested and nonforfeitable before the date his or her employment terminates. 
 3. Section 83(b) Election. If the grant of the Shares would not be taxable under the provisions of Section 83(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”), as a result of the forfeiture and restriction on transferability provisions contained herein, then the Grantee shall be authorized, in the Grantee’s discretion, to make an election to be taxed on the grant of the
Shares under Section 83(b) of the Code. To effect any such election, the Grantee shall timely file an appropriate election with the Internal Revenue Service and shall in accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations submit a copy of the
election to the Company as filed within thirty (30) days after the grant of the Shares. The Company’s copy of the election shall be sent to the Committee at Chambers Street Properties, 47 Hulfish Street, Suite 210, Princeton, NJ 08542,
Attention: Chief Executive Officer. 
 THE GRANTEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS THE GRANTEE’S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY
AND NOT THE COMPANY’S TO FILE TIMELY THE ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b) OF THE CODE, IN THE EVENT THAT THE GRANTEE DESIRES TO MAKE THE ELECTION. 
 4. Withholding Taxes. The Grantee acknowledges that he or she generally will be required to recognize income for federal, state and/or local income tax purposes upon the vesting of the Shares (or upon
the grant of the Shares, if the Grantee makes an election with respect to the Shares pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code, as more fully described in Section 3 hereof), and that such income

 
generally will be subject to withholding of tax by the Company (the “Tax”). The Grantee may choose to make payment of the applicable Tax withholdings by 1) a cash payment and
thereby receive the total number of shares vested, or 2) a reduction in stock having a Fair Market Value equivalent to the applicable Tax withholding liability. 
 5. Voting Rights; Dividends; Capital Changes. The Grantee shall have the full power to vote all of the Shares (including any unvested Shares) from time to time and shall be entitled to receive all
dividends declared upon any of the Shares (including any unvested Shares) from time to time (net of all applicable withholding taxes). All shares of capital stock or other securities issued with respect to any of the Shares or in substitution
thereof, whether by the Company or by another issuer, shall be subject to all of the terms of this Agreement and may be forfeited to the Company under Section 2 hereof under the same circumstances as the Shares with respect to, or in
substitution for, which they were issued. 
 Any cash dividends to which the Grantee may become entitled, with respect to a Share,
may, at the election of the Grantee, and subject to withholding of tax by the Company, be used to purchase additional Shares under, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Dividend Reinvestment
Plan. 
 6. No Rights to Employment. Neither this Agreement nor the Plan shall confer upon the Grantee any rights of
employment with the Company, including, without limitation, any right to continue in the employ of the Company, or shall affect the right of the Company to terminate the employment of the Grantee at any time, with or without cause. 

7. Nontransferable. No rights under this Restricted Share Award shall be transferable by Grantee except (i) by will or the laws
of descent and distribution of the state wherein the Grantee is domiciled at the time of his death or (ii) as the Committee may otherwise approve in writing in its sole discretion. 
 8. Miscellaneous. 
 (a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF MARYLAND, WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW WHICH COULD CAUSE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF MARYLAND. The captions of this Agreement
are not part of the provisions hereof and shall have no force or effect. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except by a written agreement executed by the parties hereto or their respective successors and legal representatives. The
invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement. 
 (b) The Committee may make such rules and regulations and establish such procedures for the administration of this Agreement as it deems appropriate. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Committee may interpret the Plan and this Agreement, with such interpretations to be conclusive and binding on all persons and otherwise accorded the maximum deference permitted by law, and take any other actions and make any other determinations or
decisions that it deems necessary or appropriate in connection with the Plan, this Agreement or the administration or interpretation thereof. In the event of any dispute or disagreement as to interpretation of the Plan or this Agreement or of any
rule, regulation or procedure, or as to any question, right or obligation arising from or related to the Plan or this Agreement, the decision of the Committee, shall be final and binding upon all persons. 

(c) All notices hereunder shall be in writing, and if to the Company or the Committee, shall be delivered to the Board or
mailed to its principal office, addressed to the attention of the Board; and if to the Grantee, shall be delivered personally, sent by facsimile transmission or mailed to the Grantee at the address appearing in the records of the Company. Such
addresses may be changed at any time by written notice to the other party given in accordance with this paragraph 8(c). 
 (d) The failure of the Grantee or the Company to insist upon strict compliance with any provision of this Agreement, or to assert any right the Grantee or the Company, respectively, may have under this
Agreement, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision or right or any other provision or right of this Agreement. 
 (e) This Agreement (including the Plan) contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, with respect thereto.

 (f) This Agreement and all terms and conditions hereof shall be binding upon the parties hereto, and their
successors, heirs, legatees and legal representatives.
