UDR’s FFO Growth ranked against its peers (expressed in percentiles)

	 	 	 	 
	 	 	Does not meet expectations
	Meets expectations
	 	 	Exceeds expectations

	Significantly exceeds expectations

The actual number of shares earned, expressed as a percentage of the Target Number of
Shares, is based on the combined impact of FFO and the Company’s Incremental Growth in FFO
ranked against the Peer Group.

No shares will be earned for performance results below the designated thresholds (i.e., if the
Company’s FFO does not exceed $1.51 and Incremental Growth in FFO ranked in the zero percentile
among the Peer Group).

          (a) “Incremental Growth in FFO” shall mean a number stated as a percentage equal to the
product of (i) 100, multiplied by (ii) the quotient of (A) the excess amount, if any, of the
Company’s funds from operations during the Performance Period, on a fully-diluted, per-

2

 

share basis (determined by treating the aggregate number of Initial Shares of all Grantees
that were issued during the Performance Period as having vested), over the Company’s funds from
operations during the calendar year immediately prior to the Performance Period, on a
fully-diluted, per-share basis (determined by treating the aggregate number of Initial Shares and
Additional Shares, if any, of all Grantees that were issued during or with respect to the calendar
year immediately prior to the Performance Period as having vested), divided by (B) the Company’s
funds from operations during the calendar year immediately prior to the Performance Period, on a
fully-diluted, per-share basis (determined by treating the aggregate number of Initial Shares and
Additional Shares, if any, of all Grantees that were issued during or with respect to the calendar
year immediately prior to the Performance Period as having vested). The Committee, in its sole
discretion, shall determine whether any significant item(s) shall be included or excluded from the
calculation of Incremental Growth in FFO for the Performance Period and calculate Incremental
Growth in FFO for the Performance Period accordingly.

          (b) “Peer Group” shall mean: Apartment Investment & Management Co.; Archstone-Smith Trust;
AvalonBay Communities, Inc.; BRE Properties, Inc.; Camden Property Trust; Equity Residential
Properties Trust; Essex Property Trust, Inc.; Home Properties, Inc.; Mid-America Apartment
Communities, Inc.; Post Properties, Inc.; and Town and Country Trust.

     2.3 Grant of Additional Shares. If the Adjusted Number of Shares is greater than the
Target Number of Shares, then, on the Determination Date, the Company shall issue to the Grantee
additional shares of Common Stock (the “Additional Shares”) equal to the excess of the
Adjusted Number of Shares over the Target Number of Shares as promptly as practical after filing
any registration statement, such as a Form S-8, to register such Additional Shares as the Committee
in its discretion deems advisable. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Notice and the
Agreement, if the Grantee’s employment with the Company or a Related Entity is terminated on or
prior to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the last day of the Performance Period for any reason, including
death, Disability or Retirement, he or she shall not be entitled to receive any Additional Shares
for the Performance Period (unless the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines that the
Grantee is remaining in the service of the Company or a Related Entity in any capacity of employee,
director or consultant).

     2.4 Forfeiture of Initial Shares. 

          (a) If the Adjusted Number of Shares is less than the Target Number of Shares, then, on the
Determination Date, the number of Initial Shares equal to the excess of the Target Number of Shares
over the Adjusted Number of Shares shall automatically be forfeited and deemed re-conveyed to the
Company, and the Company shall thereafter be the legal and beneficial owner of such Initial Shares
and shall have all rights and interest in or related thereto without further action by the Grantee.
After the Determination Date, all references to “Initial Shares” in this Notice and the Agreement
shall be deemed to refer to the remaining number of shares, if any, held in escrow for the Grantee
after taking into account the forfeiture of shares as set forth in this Section 2.4(a).

          (b) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Notice or the Agreement, if the Grantee’s
employment with the Company or a Related Entity is terminated on or prior to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time
on the last day of the Performance Period for any reason, other than death, Disability or
Retirement, all of the Initial Shares shall automatically be forfeited and deemed re-

3

 

conveyed to the Company on the Grantee’s date of termination, and the Company shall thereafter
be the legal and beneficial owner of the Initial Shares and shall have all rights and interest in
or related thereto without further action by the Grantee (unless the Committee, in its sole
discretion, determines that the Grantee is remaining in the service of the Company or a Related
Entity in any capacity of employee, director or consultant).

          (c) The foregoing forfeiture provisions set forth in this Section 2.4 as to Initial Shares
shall apply to the new capital stock or other property (including cash paid other than as a regular
cash dividend) received in exchange for Initial Shares in consummation of any transaction described
in Section 5 of the Agreement.

     2.5 Grants of Initial Shares and Additional Shares. The Initial Shares and Additional
Shares, if any, shall be granted as shares of Common Stock that are subject to the restrictions and
the other terms and conditions set forth in this Notice and the Agreement.

     2.6 Tax Withholding. The Grantee (or his or her beneficiary, as applicable) shall
make appropriate arrangements with the Company or Related Entity to satisfy any federal, state,
local, or non-U.S. income tax withholding requirements and Social Security or other employment tax
withholding requirements applicable to grants of the Initial Shares and Additional Shares, if any.
If no arrangements are made, the Company or Related Entity may provide, at its discretion and
without the consent of the Grantee or his or her beneficiary, for such withholding and tax payments
as may be required, including, without limitation, by reducing the number of Initial Shares and
Additional Shares, if any, by an amount equal to quotient of such tax divided by the Fair Market
Value of a share of Common Stock on the dates of grant of such Initial Shares and Additional
Shares, if any, respectively. The Grantee understands and agrees that the Company or a Related
Entity shall treat grants of the Initial Shares and Additional Shares, if any, as compensation for
services for tax purposes. The Grantee agrees to refrain from filing an election with the U.S.
Internal Revenue Service under Section 83(b) of the Code to include in gross income the amount of
any compensation taxable in connection with the receipt of the Initial Shares and Additional
Shares, if any, and acknowledges that such agreement is a condition to the grant by the Company of
the Award, the Initial Shares and Additional Shares, if any.

3. Vesting and Forfeiture of Common Stock.

     3.1 Vesting Schedule. Subject to the Grantee’s continued employment with the Company
or a Related Entity and other limitations set forth in this Notice and the Agreement, the Initial
Shares and Additional Shares, if any, held by or in escrow for the Grantee will vest on the
earliest to occur of the following (the “Vesting Schedule”):

          (a) As to the following percentage of the Initial Shares and Additional Shares, if any,

                (i) 1/4 of the Initial Shares and Additional Shares, if any, held by or in escrow for the
Grantee shall vest on the day immediately following the last day of the Performance Period,

4

 

                (ii) 1/4 of the Initial Shares and Additional Shares, if any, held by or in escrow for the
Grantee shall vest on the first anniversary of the last day of the Performance Period,

                (iii) 1/4 of the Initial Shares and Additional Shares, if any, held by or in escrow for the
Grantee shall vest on the second anniversary of the last day of the Performance Period; and

                (iv) 1/4 of the Initial Shares and Additional Shares, if any, held by or in escrow for the
Grantee shall vest on the third anniversary of the last day of the Performance Period.

          (b) On the date of termination of the Grantee’s employment with the Company or a Related
Entity because of his or her death, Disability, or Retirement, 100% of the Initial Shares and
Additional Shares, if any, held by or in escrow for the Grantee shall vest;

          (c) On the date of a Change of Control that causes acceleration of vesting of Awards under
Section 5 of the Agreement, 100% of the Initial Shares and Additional Shares, if any, held by or in
escrow for the Grantee shall vest; or

          (d) On any date specified by the Committee, the percentage(s) of the Initial Shares and
Additional Shares, if any, held by or in escrow for the Grantee specified by the Committee shall
vest.

          For purposes of this Notice and the Agreement, the term “vest” shall mean, with
respect to Initial Shares and Additional Shares, if any, held by or in escrow for the Grantee that
such Initial Shares and Additional Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture to the Company.
Initial Shares and Additional Shares, if any, held by or in escrow for the Grantee that have not
vested are deemed “Restricted Shares.” If the Grantee would become vested in a fraction of
a Restricted Share, such Restricted Share shall not vest until the Grantee becomes vested in the
entire share.

     3.2 Forfeiture of Restricted Shares. Vesting shall cease upon the date of termination
of the Grantee’s continued employment with the Company or a Related Entity for any reason, other
than death, Disability or Retirement (unless the Committee, in its sole discretion, determines that
the Grantee is remaining in the service of the Company or a Related Entity in any capacity of
employee, director or consultant). In the event the Grantee’s continued employment with the
Company or a Related Entity is terminated for any reason, other than death, Disability or
Retirement, any Restricted Shares held by or in escrow for the Grantee immediately following such
termination of employment shall be deemed re-conveyed to the Company and the Company shall
thereafter be the legal and beneficial owner of the Restricted Shares and shall have all rights and
interest in or related thereto without further action by the Grantee (unless the Committee, in its
sole discretion, determines that the Grantee is remaining in the service of the Company or a
Related Entity in any capacity of employee, director or consultant). The foregoing forfeiture
provisions set forth in this Section 3.2 as to Restricted Shares shall apply to the new capital
stock or other property (including cash paid other than as a regular cash dividend) received in
exchange for Restricted Shares in consummation of any transaction described in Section 9 of the
Agreement.

and subject to the restrictions and the other terms and conditions set forth in this Restricted
Stock Award Agreement (this “Agreement”), the number of shares indicated above of the Company’s
$0.01 par value common stock (the “Shares”).

Agreement shall vest (become exercisable) on the Determination Date as set forth in the Notice of
Performance Contingent Restricted Stock Award.

3. Restrictions.

     (a) The Shares are subject to each of the following restrictions. “Restricted Shares” means
those Shares that are subject to the restrictions imposed hereunder which restrictions have not
then expired or terminated. Restricted Shares may not be sold, transferred, exchanged, assigned,
pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered. If the Grantee’s employment with the Company or any
Parent or Subsidiary terminates for any reason other than as set forth in paragraph (a) or (b) of
Section 4 hereof, then the Grantee shall forfeit all of the Grantee’s right, title and interest in
and to the Restricted Shares as of the date of employment termination and such Restricted Shares
shall be re-conveyed to the Company without further consideration or any act or action by the
Grantee. Whether military, government or other service or other leave of absence shall constitute
a termination of employment shall be determined in each case by the Committee at its discretion,
and any determination by the Committee shall be final and conclusive. A termination of employment
shall not occur (i) in a circumstance in which a Grantee transfers from the Company to one of its
Parents or Subsidiaries, transfers from a Parent or Subsidiary to the Company, or transfers from
one Parent or Subsidiary to another Parent or Subsidiary, or (ii) in the discretion of the
Committee as specified at or prior to such occurrence, in the case of a spin-off, sale or
disposition of the Grantee’s employer from the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary.

     (b) The restrictions imposed under this Section 3 shall apply to all shares of the Company’s
stock or other securities issued with respect to Restricted Shares hereunder in connection with any
merger, reorganization, consolidation, re-capitalization, stock dividend or other change in
corporate structure affecting the common stock of the Company.

4. Expiration and Termination of Restrictions. The restrictions imposed under Section 3
will expire on the earliest to occur of the following:

     (a) On the date of termination of the Grantee’s employment with the Company or any Parent or
Subsidiary because of his or her death or Disability; or

     (b) On the date specified by the Committee in the event of an acceleration of vesting under
Section 5 of this Agreement (including, without limitation, upon the occurrence of a Change in
Control).

5. Acceleration Provisions.

     (a) Upon the Grantee’s death or Disability during his employment or service as a director or
consultant, all restrictions on the Award shall lapse.

     (b) Upon the Grantee’s Retirement, all restrictions on the Award shall lapse.

     (c) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, all restrictions on the Award shall lapse.

     (d) In the event of the occurrence of any circumstance, transaction or event not constituting
a Change of Control but which the Board deems to be, or to be reasonably likely to lead to, an
effective change in control of the Company of a nature that would be required to be reported in
response to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of the 1934 Act, the Committee may in its sole discretion
declare all restrictions on the Award to have lapsed as of such date as the Committee may, in its
sole discretion, declare, which may be on or before the consummation of such transaction or event.

     (e) Regardless of whether an event has occurred as described in clauses (c) and (d) above, the
Committee may in its sole discretion at any time determine that all or part of the restrictions on
all or a portion of the Award shall lapse as of such date as the Committee may, in its sole
discretion, declare.

     (f) If an Award is accelerated under clause (c) or (d) above, the Committee may, in its sole
discretion, provide (i) that the Award will be settled in cash rather than Stock, (ii) that the
Award will be assumed by another party to the transaction giving rise to the acceleration or
otherwise be equitably converted in connection with such transaction, or (iii) any combination of
the foregoing.

6. Delivery of Shares. The Shares will be registered in the name of the Grantee as
Restricted Stock and may be held by the Company prior to the lapse of the restrictions

thereon as provided in Section 4 hereof (the “Restricted Period”). Any certificate for Shares
issued during the Restricted Period shall be registered in the name of the Grantee and shall bear a
legend in substantially the following form:

THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE SHARES OF STOCK REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND
CONDITIONS (INCLUDING FORFEITURE AND RESTRICTIONS AGAINST TRANSFER) CONTAINED IN A
RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT DATED JUNE 23, 2006 BETWEEN THE REGISTERED OWNER OF THE
SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY AND UNITED DOMINION REALTY TRUST, INC. RELEASE FROM SUCH TERMS
AND CONDITIONS SHALL BE MADE ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF SUCH AGREEMENT,
COPIES OF WHICH ARE ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF UNITED DOMINION REALTY TRUST, INC.

     If requested, the Grantee shall deposit with the Company, a stock power, or powers, executed
in blank and sufficient to re-convey the Restricted Shares to the Company upon termination of the
Grantee’s employment during the Restricted Period, in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement. Stock certificates shall be delivered to the Grantee as soon as practicable after the
lapse of the restrictions on the Shares, but delivery may be postponed for such period as may be
required for the Company with reasonable diligence to comply if deemed advisable by the Company,
with registration requirements under the 1933 Act, listing requirements under the rules of any
stock exchange, and requirements under any other law or regulation applicable to the issuance or
transfer of the Shares.

7. Voting and Dividend Rights. The Grantee, as beneficial owner of the Shares, shall have
full voting rights with respect to the Shares and shall receive dividends on the Shares during the
Restricted Period. Dividends on the Shares are not eligible for participation in the Company’s
Dividend Reinvestment Plan during the Restricted Period.

8. Restrictions on Transfer and Pledge. The Restricted Shares may not be pledged,
encumbered, or hypothecated to or in favor of any party other than the Company or a Parent or
Subsidiary, or be subject to any lien, obligation, or liability of the Grantee to any other party
other than the Company or a Parent or Subsidiary. The Restricted Shares are not assignable or
transferable by the Grantee other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

9. Changes in Capital Structure. In the event a stock dividend is declared upon the Stock,
the shares of Stock then subject to this Agreement shall be increased proportionately. In the
event the Stock shall be changed into or exchanged for a different number or class of shares of
stock or securities of the Company or of another corporation, whether through reorganization,
re-capitalization, reclassification, share exchange, stock split-up, combination of shares, merger
or consolidation, there shall be substituted for each such share of Stock then subject to this
Agreement the number and class of shares into which each outstanding share of Stock shall be so
exchanged, or there shall be made such other equitable adjustment as the Committee shall approve.

10. Stop Transfer Notices. In order to ensure compliance with the restrictions on transfer
set forth in this Agreement, the Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its
transfer agent, if any, and, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate
notations to the same effect in its own records.

11. Refusal to Transfer. The Company shall not be required (a) to transfer on its books
any Restricted Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the
provisions of this Agreement or (b) to treat as owner of such Restricted Shares or to accord the
right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Restricted Shares
shall have been so transferred.

12. No Right of Continued Employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall interfere with or
limit in any way the right of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary to terminate the Grantee’s
employment at any time, nor confer upon the Grantee any right to continue in the employ of the
Company or any Parent or Subsidiary.

13. Payment of Taxes. The Grantee will, no later than the date as of which any amount
related to the Shares first becomes includable in the Grantee’s gross income for federal income tax
purposes, pay to the Company, or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding
payment of, any federal, state and local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with
respect to such amount. In satisfaction of such tax obligation, the Grantee authorizes the
Company, upon the exercise of the Company’s sole discretion, to withhold from those Shares issuable
to the Grantee the whole number of Shares sufficient to satisfy the Grantee’s minimum tax
withholding obligation. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement will be conditional on
such payment or arrangements, and the Company, and, where applicable, its Subsidiaries will, to the
extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind
otherwise due to the Grantee.

14. Grantee’s Covenant. The Grantee hereby agrees to use his best efforts to provide
services to the Company in a workmanlike manner and to promote the Company’s interests.

15. Amendment. The Committee may amend, modify or terminate this Agreement without
approval of the Grantee; provided, however, that such amendment, modification or termination shall
not, without the Grantee’s consent, reduce or diminish the value of this award determined as if it
had been fully vested on the date of such amendment or termination.

16. Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon any successor of the Company, in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

17. Severability. If anyone or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement is
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the other provisions of this Agreement will be construed and
enforced as if the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been included.

law, any objection the party may have to the laying of venue for any such suit, action or
proceeding brought in such court. THE PARTIES ALSO EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY HAVE OR MAY HAVE
TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. If any one or more provisions of this
Section 19 shall for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, it is the specific intent of the
parties that such provisions shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it or its
application valid and enforceable.

20. Administration. This Agreement shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of
the Board or, at the discretion of the Board from time to time, by the Board. During any time that

otherwise be equitably converted in connection with such transaction, or (iii) any combination of
the foregoing.

SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY AND UNITED DOMINION REALTY TRUST, INC. RELEASE FROM SUCH TERMS
AND CONDITIONS SHALL BE MADE ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF SUCH AGREEMENT,
COPIES OF WHICH ARE ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF UNITED DOMINION REALTY TRUST, INC.

     If requested, the Grantee shall deposit with the Company, a stock power, or powers, executed
in blank and sufficient to re-convey the Restricted Shares to the Company upon termination of the
Grantee’s employment during the Restricted Period, in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement. Stock certificates shall be delivered to the Grantee as soon as practicable after the
lapse of the restrictions on the Shares, but delivery may be postponed for such period as may be
required for the Company with reasonable diligence to comply if deemed advisable by the Company,
with registration requirements under the 1933 Act, listing requirements under the rules of any
stock exchange, and requirements under any other law or regulation applicable to the issuance or
transfer of the Shares.

7. Voting and Dividend Rights. The Grantee, as beneficial owner of the Shares, shall have
full voting rights with respect to the Shares and shall receive dividends on the Shares during the
Restricted Period. Dividends on the Shares are not eligible for participation in the Company’s
Dividend Reinvestment Plan during the Restricted Period.

8. Restrictions on Transfer and Pledge. The Restricted Shares may not be pledged,
encumbered, or hypothecated to or in favor of any party other than the Company or a Parent or
Subsidiary, or be subject to any lien, obligation, or liability of the Grantee to any other party
other than the Company or a Parent or Subsidiary. The Restricted Shares are not assignable or
transferable by the Grantee other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

9. Changes in Capital Structure. In the event a stock dividend is declared upon the Stock,
the shares of Stock then subject to this Agreement shall be increased proportionately. In the
event the Stock shall be changed into or exchanged for a different number or class of shares of
stock or securities of the Company or of another corporation, whether through reorganization,
re-capitalization, reclassification, share exchange, stock split-up, combination of shares, merger
or consolidation, there shall be substituted for each such share of Stock then subject to this

10. Stop Transfer Notices. In order to ensure compliance with the restrictions on transfer
set forth in this Agreement, the Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its
transfer agent, if any, and, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate
notations to the same effect in its own records.

11. Refusal to Transfer. The Company shall not be required (a) to transfer on its books
any Restricted Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the
provisions of this Agreement or (b) to treat as owner of such Restricted Shares or to accord the
right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Restricted Shares
shall have been so transferred.

12. No Right of Continued Employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall interfere with or
limit in any way the right of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary to terminate the Grantee’s
employment at any time, nor confer upon the Grantee any right to continue in the employ of the
Company or any Parent or Subsidiary.

13. Payment of Taxes.

     (a) The Grantee upon issuance of the Shares hereunder, shall be authorized to make an election
to be taxed upon such award under Section 83(b) of the Code. To effect such election, the Grantee
must file an appropriate election with the Internal Revenue Service within thirty (30) days after
award of the Shares and otherwise in accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations.

     (b) The Grantee will, no later than the date as of which any amount related to the Shares
first becomes includable in the Grantee’s gross income for federal income tax purposes, pay to the
Company, or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding payment of, any
federal, state and local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such
amount. In satisfaction of such tax obligation, the Grantee authorizes the Company, upon the
exercise of the Company’s sole discretion, to withhold from those Shares issuable to the Grantee
the whole number of Shares sufficient to satisfy the Grantee’s minimum tax withholding obligation.
The obligations of the Company under this Agreement will be conditional on such payment or
arrangements, and the Company, and, where applicable, its Subsidiaries will, to the extent
permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise
due to the Grantee.

14. Grantee’s Covenant. The Grantee hereby agrees to use his best efforts to provide
services to the Company in a workmanlike manner and to promote the Company’s interests.

15. Amendment. The Committee may amend, modify or terminate this Agreement without
approval of the Grantee; provided, however, that such amendment, modification or termination shall
not, without the Grantee’s consent, reduce or diminish the value of this award determined as if it
had been fully vested on the date of such amendment or termination.

16. Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon any successor of the Company, in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

17. Severability. If anyone or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement is
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the other provisions of this Agreement will be construed and
enforced as if the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been included.

the dispute. If the dispute has not been resolved by negotiation, the parties agree that any suit,
action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be brought in the United
States District Court for the District of Colorado (or should such court lack jurisdiction to hear
such action, suit or proceeding, in a state court in Colorado) and that the parties shall submit to
the jurisdiction of such court. The parties irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, any objection the party may have to the laying of venue for any such suit, action or
proceeding brought in such court. THE PARTIES ALSO EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT THEY HAVE OR MAY HAVE
TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. If any one or more provisions of this
Section 19 shall for any reason be held invalid or unenforceable, it is the specific intent of the
parties that such provisions shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it or its
application valid and enforceable.

20. Administration. This Agreement shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of
the Board or, at the discretion of the Board from time to time, by the Board. During any time that
the Board is acting as administrator of this Agreement, it shall have all the powers of the
