8.    Miscellaneous.

(a)    Exculpation and Indemnification.  

The General Partner shall not be liable to any other Partner or the Partnership for honest mistakes of judgment, or for action or inaction taken in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Partnership, or for losses, damages or claims due to such mistakes, action or inaction, or for the negligence, dishonesty or bad faith of any employee, broker or other agent of the Partnership, unless a court of competent jurisdiction has made a final determination that such employee, broker or agent was not selected, engaged or retained and supervised with reasonable care.  The General Partner may consult with counsel and accountants in respect of Partnership affairs and shall be fully protected and justified in any action or inaction that is taken in reliance in good faith upon the advice or opinion of such counsel or accountants as to matters such person reasonably believes to be within such counsel’s or accountants’ professional or expert competence.  Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 8(a) shall not be construed to relieve (or attempt to relieve) any person of any liability by reason of such person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or to the extent (but only to the extent) that such liability may not be waived, modified or limited under applicable law, but shall be construed so as to effectuate the provisions of this Section 8(a) to the fullest extent permitted by law.  This Section 8(a) shall also apply to the officers, directors, shareholders, partners, members, managers, employees, trustees, and agents of the General Partner.

The Partnership shall indemnify any person who was or is a party (other than as a plaintiff), or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of the Partnership), whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that the person is or was a Partner, officer or employee of the Partnership, or is or was serving at the request of the Partnership as a director, member, manager, officer, employee or agent of another limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other entity, against expenses (including attorney’s fees and costs), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the action, suit or proceeding, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Partnership and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person’s conduct was unlawful.  The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Partnership and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, that such person had reasonable cause to believe that the person’s conduct was unlawful.  This Section 8(a) shall also apply to the officers, directors, shareholders, partners, members, managers, employees, trustees, and agents of the General Partner.  Any indemnity under this Section 8(a) shall be provided out of and to the extent of Partnership assets only, and the General Partner shall have no personal liability on account thereof.
The foregoing provisions of this Section 8(a) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

(b)    Separability of Provisions.  Each provision of this Agreement shall be considered separable, and if for any reason any provision or provisions herein are determined to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal under any existing or future law, such invalidity, unenforceability or illegality shall not impair the operation of or affect those portions of this Agreement that are valid, enforceable and legal.
(c)    No Agency Created.  Nothing herein contained shall be construed to constitute any Partner the agent of another Partner, except as provided herein.  The Partners may engage in or possess any interest in any other business of any nature and description, independently, or with others; and neither the Partnership nor any other Partner shall have any rights in and to such independent ventures or the income or profits derived therefrom.

(d)    Approvals.  All approvals or consents permitted or required to be given under this Agreement shall be reasonably given and not unreasonably delayed or withheld.  In the event that a Partner having a right of approval takes no action within a reasonable time (or, if a time is specified in this Agreement, then within such specified time) subsequent to receipt of the documents or agreements subject to said approval or consent, the approval or consent of said Partner shall be deemed to have been given.

(e)    Effect of Consent or Waiver.  No consent or waiver, express or implied, by any Partner to or of any breach or default by any other Partner in the performance by such other Partner of its obligations hereunder shall be deemed to be or construed to be a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default by such other Partner in the performance by such other Partner of the same or any other obligations of such Partner hereunder.  Failure on the part of any of the other Partners to declare any of the other Partners in default, irrespective of how long such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver by any such Partner of its rights hereunder.

(f)    Construction.  As used in this Agreement, the masculine gender shall include the feminine and neuter, and the singular number shall include the plural, and vice versa.
(g)    Entire Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the Partners with respect to the subject matter hereof.
(h)    Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed under, the laws of the State of Delaware (without regard to conflict of laws principles), all rights and remedies being governed by those laws.
(i)    Amendments.  This Agreement may not be modified, altered, supplemented or amended except in a writing signed by all Partners.  Any attempt to modify, alter, supplement or amend this Agreement in any other manner will be null and void ab initio and of no force or effect.
(j)    Titles and Captions.  Section titles or captions contained in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be deemed a part of the contents of this Agreement.

(k)    Binding Agreement and Express Third Party Beneficiaries.  Subject to the restrictions on transfer and encumbrances set forth herein, this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the undersigned Partners and their heirs, executors, legal representatives, successors and assigns.  Whenever in this instrument a reference to any Partner is made, such reference shall be deemed to include a reference to the heirs, executors, legal representatives, successors and assigns of such Partner.  
(l)    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.  In addition, this Agreement may contain more than one counterpart of the signature pages and the Agreement may be executed by the affixing of the signatures of each of the Partners to one of such counterpart signature pages; all of such signature pages shall be read as though one, and they shall have the same force and effect as though all of the signers had signed a single solitary page.

THIS STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the ____ day of _____________, 2015 (the “Effective Date”) by and between Care Capital Properties, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and _______________, an employee of the Company (“Optionee”) pursuant to the Company’s 2015 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). 
AGREEMENT: 
The parties agree as follows: 
1.Grant of Option; Option Price.  The Company hereby grants to Optionee, as a matter of separate inducement and agreement, and not in lieu of any salary or other compensation for Optionee’s services, the right and option to purchase (the “Option”) all or any part of an aggregate of ___________ shares of Common Stock (the “Option Shares”), on the terms and conditions set forth herein, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7 of this Agreement, at a purchase price of $_______ per share (the “Option Price”).  The Company and Optionee consider the Option Price to be not less than the fair market value of the Common Stock on the Effective Date, which is the date on which the Option was granted to Optionee (the “Option Date”).  This option is not intended to be an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Code.
2.    Term of Option.  The Option shall commence on the date hereof and continue for a term ending ten years from the Option Date (the “Termination Date”), unless sooner terminated as provided in Sections 5 and 6 of this Agreement. 
3.    Option Exercisable in Installments.  Subject to the other terms and conditions stated herein, the right to exercise the Option shall vest in three equal installments as follows: 
(a)    First Installment.  Commencing on the [first anniversary of the] Option Date, Optionee may exercise the Option for up to 331⁄3 percent of the number of Option Shares. 
(b)    Second Installment.  Commencing on the [second][first] anniversary of the Option Date, Optionee may exercise the Option for 662⁄3 percent of the number of Option Shares, less the number of Option Shares for which the Optionee has already exercised the Option. 
(c)    Third Installment.  Commencing on the [third][second] anniversary of the Option Date, the Option may be fully exercised to the extent that it has not previously been exercised.  

4.    Conditions to Exercise of the Option. 
(a)    Exercise of Option.  Subject to the provisions of Section 3 of this Agreement, Optionee may exercise the Option by delivering to the Company notice in the manner directed by the Company (“Notice”) of exercise stating the number of Option Shares for which the Option is being exercised, accompanied by payment in the amount of the Option Price multiplied by the number of Option Shares for which the Option is being exercised (the “Exercise Price”) in the manner provided in Section 4(b) below and making provision for any applicable withholding taxes.
(b)    Payment of Exercise Price.  The Company shall accept as payment for the Exercise Price (a) a check payable to the order of the Company, (b) the tender of Common Stock (by either actual delivery of Common Stock or by attestation), (c) “cashless exercise” through a third party in a transaction independent of the Company and properly structured to avoid any adverse consequences to the Company, (d) a reduction in the Option Shares otherwise deliverable upon exercise, (e) a combination of the foregoing, or (f) by any other means which the Committee determines. 
(c)    Issuance of Shares on Exercise.  As soon as practicable after receipt of the Notice and payment of the Exercise Price and any required withholding taxes, the Company shall issue to Optionee, without transfer or issuance tax or other incidental expense to Optionee, the number of shares of Common Stock set forth in the Notice and for which the Company has received payment in the manner prescribed herein. 
5.    Restrictions on Transfer of Option. 
(a)    Except as provided in Section 5(b) below, the Option shall be exercisable during Optionee’s lifetime only by Optionee, and neither the Option nor any right hereunder shall be transferable except by bequest or the laws of descent and distribution.  The Option may not be subject to execution or other similar process.  If Optionee attempts to alienate, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Option or any of Optionee’s rights hereunder, except as provided in this Section 5(a) or in Section 5(b) below, or in the event of any levy or any attachment, execution or similar process upon the rights or interests hereby conferred, the Company may terminate the Option by notice to Optionee, and it shall thereupon become null and void. 
(b)    Optionee may transfer, in accordance with the Plan, any or all rights under this Agreement to (i) Optionee’s child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships, or any person sharing the Optionee’s household (other than a tenant or employee) (“Family Members”), (ii) a trust or trusts in which Optionee and/or Optionee’s Family Members have more than 50% of the beneficial interest, or (iii) a partnership, limited liability company or other entity in which Optionee and/or Optionee’s Family Members own more than 50% of the voting interests in exchange for an interest in the entity; provided that (a) any such transfer must be without any consideration to Optionee for such transfer (other than interests in such partnership, limited 

liability company or other entity), and (b) all subsequent transfers of any rights under this Agreement shall be prohibited other than by bequest or the laws of descent and distribution.  Following any such transfer, this Agreement shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to transfer, provided that for purposes of this Agreement and the Plan (excluding Section 6 of this Agreement) the term “Optionee” shall be deemed to refer to the transferee.  Any rights to exercise the Option transferred hereunder shall be exercisable by the transferee only to the extent, and for the periods, specified in this Agreement. 
6.    Exercise of the Option upon Termination of Employment. 
(a)    Termination of Employment Other Than for Death, Disability, Retirement or Cause.

The right of the Company to terminate Optionee’s employment at any time, with or without cause, is specifically reserved. 
10.    Tax Withholding.  Optionee acknowledges that the Company will be required to withhold certain taxes at the time Optionee exercises the Option.  Withholdings by the Company will not exceed the minimum required by law.  Optionee agrees to make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the payment of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations that arise with respect to the Option, including, without limitation, any taxes upon the exercise of the Option.

The Option, including any portion that has vested in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement, shall be subject to the terms and conditions, if applicable, of any recoupment policy adopted by the Company pursuant to the requirements of Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or other law or the listing requirements of any national securities exchange on which the common stock of the Company is listed.
(c)    Incorporation of Plan.  Except as specifically provided herein, this Agreement is and shall be in all respects subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, a copy of which Optionee acknowledges receiving and the terms of which are incorporated by reference.
