Non-Employee Directors Stock-for-Fees Program

 Exhibit 10.10.5 

SABRA HEALTH CARE REIT, INC. 
 2009 PERFORMANCE INCENTIVE PLAN 
 NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS STOCK-FOR-FEES
PROGRAM 
 1. Establishment. Sabra Health Care REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby establishes this
Sabra Health Care REIT, Inc. Non-Employee Directors Stock-for-Fees Program, as set forth herein (this “Program”). This Program is effective as of January 1, 2011 (the “Effective Date”). This Program is an
Appendix to, and any shares of Common Stock issued under this Program on and after the Effective Date shall be charged against the applicable share limits of, the Sabra Health Care REIT, Inc. 2009 Performance Incentive Plan (the
“Plan”). Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions of the Plan shall govern all Stock Units (as such term is defined below) credited, and shares issued, pursuant to this Program. Capitalized terms are defined in
the Plan if not defined herein. 
 2. Purpose. The purpose of this Program is to promote the success of the Company and
the interests of its stockholders by providing members of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) who are not officers or employees of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries (“Non-Employee Directors”) an
opportunity to elect to receive their Annual Cash Retainer in the form of Stock Units and more closely aligning the interests of Non-Employee Directors and stockholders. 
 3. Election to Receive Stock Units in Lieu of Annual Cash Retainer. 

(a) Definitions. For purposes of this Program, the following definitions shall apply: 

 

	 	•	 	 “Annual Cash Retainer” shall mean the basic annual retainer (including any additional fees for serving as a chairperson of the Board
or a committee thereof, but excluding any meeting fees), to the extent otherwise payable in cash, payable to a Non-Employee Director for services as a member of the Board. 

 

	 	•	 	 “Program Account” shall mean the unfunded bookkeeping account maintained by the Company on behalf of each Non-Employee Director to
which the Non-Employee Director’s Stock Units shall be credited. 

  

	 	•	 	 “Program Year” shall mean the 12 consecutive month period beginning January 1 each year and ending December 31 each year.

  

	 	•	 	 “Stock Unit” shall mean a non-voting unit of measurement which is deemed for bookkeeping purposes to be equivalent to one outstanding
share of Common Stock (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7 of the Plan) solely for purposes of the Program. Stock Units shall be used solely as a device for the determination of the number of shares of Common Stock eventually to be
delivered to a Non-Employee Director upon payment of such Stock Units. Stock Units shall not be treated as property or as a trust fund of any kind. Stock Units granted to a Non-Employee Director pursuant to the Program shall be credited to the
Non-Employee Director’s Program Account. 

 (b) Election Form. A Non-Employee Director may elect
to exchange the right to receive payment of all or a portion of his or her Annual Cash Retainer payable with respect to a particular Program Year for the right to receive a grant of Stock Units under this Program in lieu of such retainer (or portion
thereof, as applicable). Such election shall be made by completing the election form attached hereto as Exhibit 1 (or such other form as the Board may prescribe from time to time) (an “ Election Form “) and filing such completed
form with the Company by the deadline determined under Section 3(c) or (d) below, as applicable. 
 (c) Election
for Program Years. With respect to any Program Year commencing on or after the Effective Date, and except as otherwise provided in Section 3(d) of this Program, a Non-Employee Director may file an Election Form with the Company on or before
December 31 immediately preceding the start of such Program Year or any earlier deadline that may be established with respect to the particular year. Such Election Form shall become irrevocable as of such December 31 and shall be effective
with respect to the Annual Cash Retainer for the Program Year commencing on the January 1 that next follows such December 31. 

  
 1 

 (d) Election for First Year of Eligibility. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Program, to the extent permissible under Section 409A of the Code, any individual who first becomes a Non-Employee Director after the Effective Date and during the first three (3) quarters of a particular Program Year may file an
Election Form with the Company no later than thirty (30) days after such individual first becomes a Non-Employee Director for purposes of this Program. Such Election Form shall be irrevocable and shall be effective with respect to the
director’s Annual Cash Retainer paid for services rendered during the Program Year in which the Election Form is filed for any quarter in such Program Year that commences after such Election Form is filed with the Company. 

(e) Credit of Stock Units. Annual Cash Retainers are paid by the Company on a quarterly basis. Upon the last business day of each
quarter of a Program Year for which a Non-Employee Director has made a valid and timely election to receive Stock Units under this Program in lieu of all or a portion of his or her Annual Cash Retainer for that quarter (each, a “Crediting
Date”) the Company shall credit the Non-Employee Director’s Program Account with a number of Stock Units determined by dividing (i) the amount of the Exchanged Retainer, by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a share of Common
Stock on that Crediting Date, rounded down to the nearest whole unit. The “Exchanged Retainer” is that portion of the Non-Employee Director’s Annual Cash Retainer that would have otherwise been paid in cash to the Non-Employee
Director for his or her service on the Board during that quarter but for his or her election pursuant to this Program. Any fractional amount less than the Fair Market Value of a share of the Common Stock as of such Crediting Date shall be paid in
cash. Not less frequently than annually, the Company shall provide each Non-Employee Director with a current statement of his or her Program Account reflecting all credits of Stock Units as of such date. The term “Fair Market Value” as
used in this Program has the same meaning as in the Plan. 
 (f) Dividend and Voting Rights. 

(i) A Non-Employee Director shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company, no dividend rights (except as expressly provided in
Section 3(f)(ii) of this Program with respect to dividend equivalent rights) and no voting rights, with respect to Stock Units credited under this Program and any shares of Common Stock underlying or issuable in respect of such Stock Units
until such shares are actually issued to and held of record by the Non-Employee Director. No adjustments will be made for dividends or other rights of a holder for which the record date is prior to the date of issuance of the shares. 

(ii) As of any date that the Company pays an ordinary cash dividend on its Common Stock (and in all events no later than
two-and-one-half months after such date and in the same calendar year as such date), the Company shall pay each Non-Employee Director with a Program Account balance an amount in cash equal to the per-share cash dividend paid by the Company on its
Common Stock on such date, multiplied by the number of outstanding and unpaid Stock Units credited to such Non-Employee Director’s Program Account as of the related dividend payment record date. No such payment shall be made with respect to any
Stock Units which, as of such record date, have been paid pursuant to Section 3(g). 
 (g) Payment of Stock Units.
Any Stock Units credited to a Non-Employee Director’s Program Account shall be fully vested at all times, and shall be payable in an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock (either by delivering one or more certificates, registered in the
name of the Non-Employee Director, for such shares or by entering such shares in the name of the Non-Employee Director in book-entry form, as determined by the Company in its discretion) on or within sixty (60) days following the first to occur
of (A) the date of the Non-Employee Director’s Separation from Service or (B) the fifth (5th) anniversary of the date the Stock Unit was credited to the Non-Employee Director. As used herein, a “Separation from Service”
occurs when the Non-Employee Director dies, retires, or otherwise has a termination of service with the Company that constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h), without regard
to the optional alternative definitions available thereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Non-Employee Director is a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i)) on the date
of the Non-Employee Director’s Separation from Service, the Non-Employee Director shall not be entitled to payment of any Stock Units that would otherwise be paid in connection with his or her Separation from Service until the earlier of
(A) the date which is six (6) months after his or her Separation from Service with the Company for any reason other than death, or (ii) the date of the Non-Employee Director’s death (and, in either case, payment will be made
within thirty (30) days following that event); provided that this six-month delay shall apply only to the extent such delay in payment is required to comply with, and avoid the imputation of any tax, penalty or interest under, Section 409A
of the Code. Shares of Common Stock issued with respect to this Program may be issued under the Plan (and, in such case, shall be charged against the Share Limit set forth in Section 4.2 of the Plan) or may be issued under any other authority
of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, in the event that the Company is not able to issue shares of Common Stock in payment of any Stock Units credited under this Program, such Stock Units shall be settled by payment in cash equal
to the applicable number of Stock Units not eligible to be paid in shares, multiplied by the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date the Stock Units are paid. 

  
 2 

 4. Plan Provisions. Stock Units credited under this Program, and the issuance of
shares of Common Stock in respect thereof (and any shares so issued), shall otherwise be subject to the terms of the Plan (including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 7, 5.7 and 8.1 of the Plan); provided that no payment of the Stock
Units shall be made earlier than the payment date determined pursuant to this Program. 
 5. Amendment; Administration;
Construction. The Board may at any time amend, modify or suspend this Program without stockholder approval; provided that no such amendment, modification or suspension shall materially and adversely affect the rights of participants in this
Program, without their consent, as to any Exchanged Retainer for the Program Year in which such amendment, modification or suspension occurs that has not theretofore been satisfied by the crediting of Stock Units pursuant to this Program or as to
any Stock Units previously credited or to be credited for that or any prior year. The Company may terminate this Program and pay all outstanding Stock Units hereunder in accordance with the requirements of Treasury Regulation 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix)(A),
(B) or (C). This Program does not limit the Board’s authority to make other, discretionary award grants to Non-Employee Directors pursuant to the Plan. The Administrator’s power and authority to construe and interpret the Plan and
awards thereunder pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Plan shall extend to this Program and any Stock Units credited and shares issued hereunder. As provided in Section 3.3 of the Plan, any action taken by, or inaction of, the Administrator
relating or pursuant to this Program and within its authority or under applicable law shall be within the absolute discretion of that entity or body and shall be conclusive and binding upon all persons. This Program, including any Election Forms
filed hereunder, shall be construed and interpreted to comply with Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or this Program, the Company reserves the right to amend this Program to the extent it reasonably
determines is necessary in order to preserve the intended tax consequences of elections made under this Program in light of Section 409A of the Code and any regulations or other guidance promulgated thereunder. 

6. Restrictions on Transfer. Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in the Plan to the contrary, prior to the time the Stock
Units are vested and paid, neither the Stock Units nor any interest therein or amount payable in respect thereof may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of, alienated or encumbered, either voluntarily or involuntarily,
other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. 
 7. Limitation on Non-Employee Director’s Rights. The
Stock Units create no fiduciary duty to the Non-Employee Director and shall create only a contractual obligation on the part of the Company to make payments, subject to vesting and the other terms and conditions hereof, as provided above. No assets
have been secured or set aside by the Company with respect to the Stock Units and, if amounts become payable to the Non-Employee Director pursuant to this Program, the Non-Employee Director’s rights with respect to such amounts shall be no
greater than the rights of any general unsecured creditor of the Company. 
 8. Effect of this Program. This Program
shall be assumed by, be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successor or successors to the Company.

 I have read and understand this form. I have received, read and understand the Program and Plan documents and the Prospectus for the Plan. I agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Program

 Cash Compensation

 Each non-employee director will be entitled to an annual cash retainer while serving on the Board in the amount set
forth above (the “Annual Retainer”). A non-employee director who serves as the Chair of the Board or the Company’s Lead Independent Director will be entitled to an additional annual cash retainer while serving in that position in the
amount set forth above (the “Additional Chair/Lead Independent Director Retainer”). A non-employee director who serves as the Chair of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee or the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board
will be entitled to an additional annual cash retainer while serving in that position in the applicable amount set forth above (an “Additional Committee Chair Retainer”). A non-employee director who attends a meeting of the Audit
Committee, the Compensation Committee or the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board (each, a “Committee Meeting”) will be entitled to a fee for attendance at the meeting in the amount set forth above (a “Committee Meeting
Fee”); provided that the Committee Meeting Fee for a particular Committee Meeting will be reduced to $500 if the meeting is either (1) a telephonic meeting lasting for less than thirty minutes, or (2) a meeting that is held as an
in-person meeting but the non-employee director attends the meeting other than in person. 
 The amounts of the Annual Retainer,
Additional Chair/Lead Independent Director Retainer, and Additional Committee Chair Retainers reflected above are expressed as annualized amounts. These retainers will be paid on a quarterly basis, at the end of each quarter in arrears, and
will be pro-rated if a non-employee director serves (or serves in the corresponding position, as the case may be) for only a portion of the quarter (with the proration based on the number of calendar days in the quarter that the director served as a
non-employee director or held the particular position, as the case may be). Committee Meeting Fees for attendance at one or more meetings that occur in a particular quarter will be paid at the end of that quarter. 

Equity Awards 

Initial Equity Awards 
 For each new non-employee director appointed or elected to the Board after December 17, 2010, on the date that the new non-employee director first becomes a member of the Board, the new non-employee
director will automatically be granted an award of restricted stock units (an “Initial RSU Award”) determined by dividing (1) the Initial Equity Award grant value set forth above by (2) the per-share closing price of the
Company’s common stock on the date of grant (rounded down to the nearest whole unit). On December 17, 2010, an Initial RSU Award will 

  
 1 

 
be granted to each non-employee director serving on the Board on that date, with the number of restricted stock units subject to each such award determined by dividing (1) the Initial Equity
Award grant value set forth above by (2) the per-share closing price of the Company’s common stock on December 17, 2010 (rounded down to the nearest whole unit). Each Initial RSU Award will vest in equal monthly installments over the
two-year period following the date of grant. 
 An employee or former employee of the Company or one of its subsidiaries who
ceases or has ceased to be so employed and becomes a non-employee director will not be eligible for an Initial RSU Award grant, but will be eligible for cash compensation and annual equity awards on the same basis as other non-employee directors.

 Annual Equity Awards for Continuing Board Members 

On the date of each annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders, commencing with the 2011 Annual Meeting, each non-employee director
then in office will automatically be granted an award of restricted stock units (an “Annual RSU Award”) determined by dividing (1) the Annual Equity Award grant value set forth above by (2) the per-share closing price of the
Company’s common stock on the date of such annual meeting (rounded down to the nearest whole unit). Each Annual RSU Award will vest in equal monthly installments over the one-year period following the date of grant. Should the annual meeting of
the Company’s stockholders in the year following the year in which the award was granted occur prior to the last vesting date of the award, the outstanding and unvested portion of the award will vest on the day prior to that annual meeting. In
the event that more than one annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders occurs during a given fiscal year, Annual RSU Awards will be made only in connection with the first such meeting to occur in that year. 

For each new non-employee director appointed or elected to the Board after December 17, 2010 and other than on the date of an annual
meeting of the Company’s stockholders, on the date that the new non-employee director first becomes a member of the Board, the new non-employee director will be entitled to a pro-rata portion of the Annual RSU Award (a “Pro-Rata Annual RSU
Award”) determined by dividing (1) a pro-rata portion of the Annual Equity Award grant value set forth above by (2) the per-share closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date the new non-employee director first became
a member of the Board. The pro-rata portion of the Annual Equity Award grant value for purposes of a Pro-Rata Annual RSU Award will equal the Annual Equity Award grant value set forth above multiplied by a fraction (not greater than one), the
numerator of which is 12 minus the number of whole months that as of the particular grant date had elapsed since the Company’s last annual meeting of stockholders at which Annual RSU Awards were granted by the Company to non-employee directors,
and the denominator of which is 12, with the result to be rounded down to the nearest whole unit. On December 17, 2010, a Pro-Rata Annual RSU Award will be granted to each non-employee director serving on the Board on that date, with the number
of restricted stock units subject to each such award determined by dividing (1) the product of 7/12 multiplied by the Annual Equity Award grant value set forth above by (2) the per-share closing price of the Company’s common stock on
December 17, 2010 (rounded down to the nearest whole unit). (For purposes of clarity, the fraction 7/12 in the preceding sentence reflects the approximate number of months (7) between the date each non-employee director serving on the
Board on December 17, 2010 initially took office and the estimated date of the Company’s 2011 Annual Meeting.) Each Pro-Rata Annual RSU Award will vest in equal monthly installments based on the number of whole months remaining in the
period beginning with the month following the month in which the Pro-Rata Annual RSU Award was granted and ending with the month in which the next scheduled annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders in which Annual RSU Awards will be
granted. 
 Provisions Applicable to All Non-Employee Director Equity Awards 

Each restricted stock unit award will be made under and subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s 2009 Performance
Incentive Plan (the “2009 Plan”) or any successor equity compensation plan approved by the Company’s stockholders and in effect at the time of grant, and will be evidenced by, and subject to the terms and conditions of, an award
agreement in the form approved by the Board to evidence such type of grant pursuant to this policy (the “Form of Award Agreement”). To the extent then vested, restricted stock units will generally be paid in an equal number of shares of
the Company’s common stock on the earlier to occur of (1) that date that is five years following the original grant date, (2) the date the non-employee director ceases to be a member of the Board, or (3) the occurrence of a
“change in control.” 

  
 2 

 Restricted stock unit awards granted under the 2009 Plan are generally forfeited as to the
unvested portion of the award upon the non-employee director’s termination of service as a director for any reason. However, vesting of a non-employee director’s outstanding and unvested restricted stock units will accelerate upon a change
in control of the Company or should the director’s services terminate due to the director’s death or disability. 

Non-employee directors are entitled to receive dividend equivalents with respect to outstanding and unpaid restricted stock units granted
pursuant to this policy. Dividend equivalents, if any, are paid in the form of a credit of additional restricted stock units under the 2009 Plan and are subject to the same vesting, payment and other provisions as the underlying restricted stock
units. 
 The definition of “change in control” and specific payment, termination and dividend equivalent provisions
applicable to an award are set forth in the related Form of Award Agreement. 
 Elective Grants of Equity Awards

 Non-employee directors may participate in the Company’s Non-Employee Directors Stock-For-Fees Program, pursuant
to which they may elect that certain of their cash retainers be converted into the right to receive an award of stock units under the 2009 Plan. 
 Expense Reimbursement 
 All non-employee directors will be entitled
to reimbursement from the Company for their reasonable travel (including airfare and ground transportation), lodging and meal expenses incident to meetings of the Board or committees thereof or in connection with other Board related business. The
Company will make reimbursement to a non-employee director within a reasonable amount of time following submission by the non-employee director of reasonable written substantiation for the expenses.
