 AMENDED AND RESTATED ESCROW AGREEMENT 
 FOR 
 PENNSYLVANIA INVESTORS 
 This
AMENDED AND RESTATED ESCROW AGREEMENT, effective on November 10, 2005, as amended and restated as of August 7, 2006, by and among WELLS TIMBER REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST, INC., a Maryland corporation
(“Company”), WELLS INVESTMENT SECURITIES, INC., a Georgia corporation (“Dealer Manager”), and U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association (“Escrow Agent”).

 WITNESSETH: 
 WHEREAS, Company proposes to offer to the public (the “Public Offering”) up to a maximum of 85,000,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Shares”) pursuant to the terms of, and
at the prices set forth in, Company’s prospectus (“Prospectus”) contained in the registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(“Commission”) (capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings given in the Prospectus); 
 WHEREAS, the Dealer Manager will distribute the Shares on behalf of Company on a “best efforts” basis; 
 WHEREAS, it is anticipated that prospective investors will subscribe for Shares and will provide Dealer Manager with subscription payments for such Shares (the “Subscription Payments”), which
subscriptions will be contingent upon (i) their respective acceptances by Company and (ii) Company’s acceptance of subscriptions aggregating at least $2,000,000 in subscription proceeds (the “Minimum Subscription”)
by the close of business on the date exactly one year after the original effective date of the Registration Statement (the “Minimum Subscription Termination Date”); 
 WHEREAS, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania requires Company to have raised a minimum of $37,500,000 prior to the acceptance of Subscription
Payments from Pennsylvania investors (the “Pennsylvania Minimum Subscription”); 
 WHEREAS, the Pennsylvania Minimum
Subscription must be satisfied within 120 days (or subsequent 120-day periods as set forth in Section 4) from the receipt of any instruments of payment from an investor in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania; 
 WHEREAS, Escrow Agent has agreed to receive and hold in escrow all Subscription Payments from Pennsylvania investors and to distribute such
Subscription Payments in each case in accordance with the terms and conditions herein set forth; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration
of the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 1. Appointment of Escrow Agent. Company and Dealer Manager hereby appoint Escrow Agent to serve as escrow agent for Pennsylvania investors
hereunder, and Escrow Agent hereby accepts such appointment in accordance with the terms of this Escrow Agreement. Company and Dealer Manager hereby acknowledge that the status of Escrow Agent is that of agent only for the limited purposes
set forth herein, and hereby agree that they will not represent or imply that Escrow Agent has investigated the desirability or advisability of investment in the Shares or has approved, endorsed or passed upon the 

 merits of the investment therein. Company and Dealer Manager further agree that the name of the Escrow Agent shall not be
used in any manner in connection with the offer or sale of the Shares other than to state that the Escrow Agent has agreed to serve as escrow agent for the limited purposes set forth herein. 
 2. Deposit into Escrow. Until such time as prospective Pennsylvania investors have subscribed for the Pennsylvania Minimum Subscription
and, thereafter, whenever the Dealer Manager receives an instrument of payment made payable to the Escrow Agent, the Dealer Manager will (i) by 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the next business day following Dealer Manager’s receipt of the
same, deposit with Escrow Agent, or cause to be deposited with Escrow Agent, all Subscription Payments received by it from Pennsylvania investors, accompanied by a list of the names, social security numbers or tax identification numbers, and
addresses (and any other information required for withholding purposes) of, and amounts paid by, each prospective investor, and (ii) allow such Subscription Payments to remain in escrow with Escrow Agent and not withdraw, or attempt to
withdraw, such Subscription Payments from Escrow Agent, except as herein provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any prospective investor shall exercise any right provided by law to rescind his or her subscription, Escrow Agent shall, upon
notice from Company or Dealer Manager, return to such prospective investor all Subscription Payments pertaining to such subscription, together with any earnings thereon during the period that such Subscription Payments were held by Escrow Agent
under this Escrow Agreement. 
 All Subscription Payments delivered to Escrow Agent by Dealer Manager pursuant hereto shall be deposited
immediately by Escrow Agent in a separate account designated as the “Pennsylvania Escrow Account for the Benefit of Subscribers for Common Stock of Wells Timber Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc.” (the “Pennsylvania Escrow
Account”). The Pennsylvania Escrow Account shall be created and maintained subject to the terms of this Escrow Agreement and the customary rules and regulations of Escrow Agent pertaining to such accounts. 
 If any of the prospective investors’ instruments of payment for the subscription of Shares are dishonored or returned to Escrow Agent for nonpayment
prior to receipt of the Pennsylvania Minimum Subscription, Escrow Agent shall promptly notify Dealer Manager in writing of such nonpayment and return such instruments of payment to the prospective investors. In any such instance, Escrow Agent is
authorized to debit the Pennsylvania Escrow Account in the amount of such return payment as well as any earnings on the investment represented by such payment. 
 3. Investment of the Funds in the Pennsylvania Escrow Account. Escrow Agent shall hold funds delivered to it under the terms of this Escrow Agreement and shall from time to time invest and reinvest the
funds held in the Pennsylvania Escrow Account, as and when instructed pursuant to joint written instructions by Company and Dealer Manager, in any one or more of the following: 
 (a) obligations of the United States of America; 
 (b) obligations guaranteed or collateralized by the United States of America; 
 (c) money market accounts of any national banks or
state banks insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, including Escrow Agent; and 
 (d) certificates of deposit of any national
banks or state banks insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, including Escrow Agent. 
 No investment shall be made in any
instrument or security that has a maturity of greater than three (3) months. If no joint written instructions are received by Escrow Agent as provided above, Escrow 
  

 - 2 - 

 Agent may invest amounts held in the Pennsylvania Escrow Account in money market funds of the type described in
subparagraph (c) above. Any income or interest realized from the investments made by Escrow Agent pursuant hereto shall be reinvested by Escrow Agent until directed otherwise under the terms of this Escrow Agreement. Dealer Manager and Company
may examine any and all documentation regarding the investment of the Pennsylvania Escrow Account during normal business hours at the offices of Escrow Agent. 
 4. Disbursements From Pennsylvania Escrow Account. 
 (a) Rejected
Subscriptions. No later than five (5) business days after receipt by Escrow Agent of written notice from Company or Dealer Manager that Company intends to reject a potential investor’s subscription, Escrow Agent shall pay, by
certified or bank check and by first-class mail, the amount of the Subscription Payment paid by such potential investor (together with all earnings thereon) or Escrow Agent shall return the instruments of payment delivered to Escrow Agent with
respect to any Subscription Payment if such instruments have not been processed for collection prior to such time directly to such potential investor. 
 (b) Termination of the Public Offering in Pennsylvania. In the event that the Pennsylvania Minimum Subscription has not been satisfied at the close of business on the date exactly 120 days from the date
of receipt of the first instruments of payment from an investor in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (the “Initial Termination Date”), which date will be communicated to Escrow Agent in writing as soon as possible after
determination, Company will, within 10 days of the end of the Initial Termination Date, notify the investors whose funds are held in the Pennsylvania Escrow Account of their right to receive a refund, with interest and without deductions for
expenses. If the Pennsylvania investor requests a refund within 10 days of receiving the notice, Company shall so notify Escrow Agent, and Escrow Agent shall promptly return by check the funds deposited in the Pennsylvania Escrow Account and any
interest, or shall return the instruments of payment delivered to Escrow Agent if such instruments have not been processed for collection prior to such time, directly to each subscriber at the address given to Company, but in any event within 15
calendar days from the date Company received the refund request, as notified by Company to Escrow Agent. 
 Amounts held in the Pennsylvania
Escrow Account from Pennsylvania investors not requesting a refund will continue to be held for subsequent 120-day periods (each a “Subsequent Escrow Period”) until the Pennsylvania Minimum Subscription is received; provided that on
the last day of each Subsequent Escrow Period (each a “Subsequent Termination Date”), Company will again notify investors of their right to receive refunds with interest and without deductions for expenses from the date after the
Initial Termination Date subject to the same time period enumerated above. Promptly following each Subsequent Termination Date, and on the next business day after each Subsequent Termination Date or as soon as possible thereafter, Escrow Agent shall
return promptly by check the funds deposited in the Pennsylvania Escrow Account and any interest, or shall return the instruments of payment delivered to Escrow Agent if such instruments have not been processed for collection prior to such time,
directly to each subscriber so requesting a refund at the address given to Company. 
 (c) Termination of Public Offering. In
the event that on the Minimum Subscription Termination Date, Escrow Agent is not in receipt of evidence of subscriptions accepted on or before such date, and instruments of payment dated not later than that date (or actual wired funds), for the
purchase of Shares at least equal to the Minimum Subscription, Escrow Agent shall promptly notify Company and Escrow Agent shall promptly return all funds received in full to Pennsylvania investors, together with their pro rata share of any interest
earned thereon, pursuant to instructions made by Company, upon which Escrow Agent may conclusively rely. 
  

 - 3 - 

 (d) Receipt of Pennsylvania Minimum Subscription Payments. Subject to the provisions of
Section 2 and Section 4(a), (b) and (c) hereof, Escrow Agent shall hold the Subscription Payments deposited with Escrow Agent in the Pennsylvania Escrow Account under the terms of this Escrow Agreement and not rejected or
refunded pursuant to the terms hereof until such date (“Pennsylvania Minimum Subscription Satisfaction Date”) as Company and Dealer Manager shall have delivered to the Escrow Agent a joint written instruction notifying Escrow Agent
that the Pennsylvania Minimum Subscription has been received and accepted (the “Pennsylvania Minimum Subscription Notice and Disbursement Instruction”). Within two (2) business days of the Pennsylvania Minimum Subscription
Notice and Disbursement Instruction, Escrow Agent shall deliver all Subscription Payments in the Pennsylvania Escrow Account and all earnings thereon to Company in the manner, amounts and to the bank accounts set forth in the Pennsylvania Minimum
Subscription Notice and Disbursement Instruction. If after the Escrow Agent has received the Pennsylvania Minimum Subscription Notice and Disbursement Instruction, the Dealer Manager shall send the Escrow Agent Subscription Payments made payable to
the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent will deposit the Subscription Payments into the Escrow Account, as described herein and, within twenty four (24) hours of such deposit, deliver the Subscription Payments in the Escrow Account in the manner,
amounts and to the bank accounts set forth in the Pennsylvania Minimum Subscription Notice and Disbursement Instruction. 
 In the event that
Escrow Agent receives instruments of payment after the Pennsylvania Minimum Subscription Satisfaction Date, Escrow Agent is hereby authorized to deposit such instruments of payment to any deposit account as directed by Company and Dealer Manager.
The application of such funds into a deposit account directed by Company and Dealer Manager shall be a full acquittance to the Escrow Agent and Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for the application of such funds. 
 5. Escrow Agent Compensation. Escrow Agent shall be entitled to receive compensation for its services as Escrow Agent hereunder as set
forth on the schedule attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit A, which compensation shall be paid by Company. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Escrow Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any fee, reimbursement for
costs and expenses, indemnification for any damages incurred by Escrow Agent, or monies whatsoever be paid out of or chargeable to the income or assets in the Pennsylvania Escrow Account held by Escrow Agent. 
 6. Resignation and Removal of Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent may resign at any time from its obligations under this Escrow Agreement by
providing written notice to Company and Dealer Manager. Such resignation shall be effective on the date specified in such notice, which shall be not less than thirty (30) days after such written notice has been given. In addition, Company and
Dealer Manager may jointly remove Escrow Agent as the escrow agent at any time with or without cause, by a written instrument executed by both of them (which may be executed in counterparts) given to Escrow Agent, which instrument shall designate
the effective date of such removal. In the event of any such resignation or removal, a successor escrow agent, which shall be a bank or trust company organized under the laws of the United States of America, shall be appointed by the mutual
agreement of Company and Dealer Manager. Any such successor escrow agent shall deliver to Company and Dealer Manager a written instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon it shall succeed to all the rights and duties of Escrow Agent
hereunder and shall be entitled to receive the Pennsylvania Escrow Account. If no successor escrow agent is named by Company and Dealer Manager, Escrow Agent may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for appointment of a successor Escrow Agent.

 7. Liability of Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent shall not be liable to anyone for any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
expenses that it may incur as a result of any act or omission of Escrow Agent, unless such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are caused by Escrow Agent’s bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence. Accordingly, Escrow
Agent shall not incur any such liability with respect to (i) any action taken or omitted in good faith upon the advice of Escrow Agent’s counsel or counsel for any 
  

 - 4 - 

 other party hereto, given with respect to any question relating to the duties and responsibilities of Escrow Agent under
this Escrow Agreement or (ii) any action taken or omitted in reliance upon any instrument, including execution, or the identity or authority of any person executing such instrument, its validity and effectiveness, but also as to the truth and
accuracy of any information contained therein that Escrow Agent shall, in good faith, believe to be genuine, to have been signed by a proper person or persons and to conform to the provisions of this Escrow Agreement. 
 8. Indemnification of Escrow Agent. Company and Dealer Manager hereby jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold Escrow Agent (and
its officers, directors, employees and agents) harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses, that may be imposed on Escrow Agent or incurred by Escrow
Agent in connection with Escrow Agent’s acceptance of its appointment hereunder, or the performance of Escrow Agent’s duties hereunder, except where such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses result from Escrow Agent’s bad
faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
 9. Disputes. In the event of any disagreement among any of the parties to
this Escrow Agreement, or among them or any other person resulting in adverse claims and demands being made in connection with or from any property in the Pennsylvania Escrow Account, Escrow Agent shall be entitled to refuse to comply with any such
claims or demands as long as such disagreement may continue, and in so refusing, shall make no delivery or other disposition of any property then held by it in the Pennsylvania Escrow Account under this Escrow Agreement, and in so doing Escrow Agent
shall be entitled to continue to refrain from acting until (i) the right of adverse claimants shall have been finally settled by binding arbitration or finally adjudicated in a court assuming and having jurisdiction of the property involved
herein or affected hereby or (ii) all differences shall have been adjusted by agreement and Escrow Agent shall have been notified in writing of such agreement signed by the parties hereto. 
 In the event of such disagreement (or a resignation by Escrow Agent under the terms of this Escrow Agreement), Escrow Agent may tender into the registry
or custody of any court of competent jurisdiction all money or property in its hands under the terms of this Escrow Agreement, together with instituting any other legal proceeding it deems appropriate, and thereupon Escrow Agent shall be discharged
from all further duties under this Escrow Agreement. The filing of any such legal proceeding shall not deprive Escrow Agent of its compensation earned prior to such filing. 
 10. Representations and Warranties. Each of Company and Dealer Manager respectively makes the following representations and warranties to
Escrow Agent:

incorporation, and has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Escrow Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder.

binding arrangement to which it is a party or any of its property is subject. The execution, delivery and performance of this Escrow Agreement are consistent with the Prospectus, and the Prospectus properly describes the allocation of interest and

 WELLS TIMBER REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST, INC. 
 2005 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN 
 ARTICLE 1 
 PURPOSE 

1.1. GENERAL. The purpose of the Amended and Restated Wells Timber Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. 2005 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the
“Plan”) is to promote the success, and enhance the value, of Wells Timber Real Estate Investment Trust, Inc. (the “Company”), by linking the personal interests of employees, officers, directors and consultants of
the Company or any Affiliate (as defined below) to those of Company stockholders and by providing such persons with an incentive for outstanding performance. The Plan is further intended to provide flexibility to the Company in its ability to
motivate, attract, and retain the services of employees, officers, directors and consultants upon whose judgment, interest, and special effort the successful conduct of the Company’s operation is largely dependent. Accordingly, the Plan permits
the grant of incentive awards from time to time to selected employees, officers, directors and consultants of the Company and its Affiliates.

cash but payable in whole or in part in Shares or Restricted Stock, the number of Shares to be so paid will be determined by dividing the cash value of the Award to be so paid by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of determination by the
Committee of the amount of the payment under the Award, or, if the Committee so directs, the date immediately preceding the date the Award is paid. 
 ARTICLE 10 
 RESTRICTED STOCK AND RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARDS 
 10.1. GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK AND RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS. The Committee is authorized to make Awards of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock
Units to Participants in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as may be selected by the Committee. An Award of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units shall be evidenced by an Award Certificate setting forth the terms,
conditions, and restrictions applicable to the Award. 
 10.2. ISSUANCE AND RESTRICTIONS. Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units
shall be subject to such restrictions on transferability and other restrictions as the Committee may impose (including, without limitation, limitations on the right to vote Restricted Stock or the right to receive dividends on the Restricted Stock
or dividend equivalents on the Restricted Stock Units) covering a period of time specified by the Committee (the “Restriction Period”). These restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such times, under such
circumstances, in such installments, upon the satisfaction of performance goals or otherwise, as the Committee determines at the time of the grant of the Award or thereafter. Except as otherwise provided in an Award Certificate or any special Plan
document governing an Award, the Participant shall have all of the rights of a stockholder with respect to the Restricted Stock, and the Participant shall have none of the rights of a stockholder with respect to Restricted Stock Units until such
time as Shares of Stock are paid in settlement of the Restricted Stock Units. 
 10.3. FORFEITURE. Except for certain limited
situations (including the death or Disability of the Participant or a Change in Control referred to in Section 14.8), Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Unit Awards subject solely to continued employment restrictions shall have a
Restriction Period of not less than three years from the Grant Date (but permitting pro-rata vesting over such time). Except as otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of the grant of the Award or thereafter, immediately after termination
of Continuous Status as a Participant during the applicable restriction period or upon failure to satisfy a performance goal during the applicable restriction period, Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units that are at that time subject to
restrictions shall be forfeited. 
 10.4. DELIVERY OF RESTRICTED STOCK. Shares of Restricted Stock shall be delivered to the
Participant at the time of grant either by book-entry registration or by delivering to the Participant, or a custodian or escrow agent (including, without limitation, the Company or one or more of its employees) designated by the Committee, a stock
certificate or certificates registered in the name of the Participant. If physical certificates representing shares of Restricted Stock are registered in the name of the Participant, such certificates must bear an appropriate legend referring to the
terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock. 
  

 - 13 - 

 ARTICLE 11 
 DEFERRED STOCK UNITS 
 11.1. GRANT OF DEFERRED STOCK UNITS. The Committee is authorized to
grant Deferred Stock Units to Participants subject to such terms and conditions as may be selected by the Committee. Deferred Stock Units shall entitle the Participant to receive Shares of Stock (or the equivalent value in cash or other property if
so determined by the Committee) at a future time as determined by the Committee, or as determined by the Participant within guidelines established by the Committee in the case of voluntary deferral elections. An Award of Deferred Stock Units shall
be evidenced by an Award Certificate setting forth the terms and conditions applicable to the Award. 
 ARTICLE 12 
 DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS 
 12.1. GRANT
OF DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS. The Committee is authorized to grant Dividend Equivalents to Participants, in connection with other Awards or on a freestanding basis, subject to such terms and conditions as may be selected by the Committee. Dividend
Equivalents shall entitle the Participant to receive payments equal to dividends with respect to all or a portion of the number of Shares subject to any Award, as determined by the Committee. The Committee may provide that Dividend Equivalents be
paid or distributed when accrued or be deemed to have been reinvested in additional Shares or units equivalent to Shares, or otherwise reinvested. 
 ARTICLE 13 
 STOCK OR OTHER STOCK-BASED AWARDS 
 13.1. GRANT OF STOCK OR OTHER STOCK-BASED AWARDS. The Committee is authorized, subject to limitations under applicable law, to grant to
Participants such other Awards that are payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to Shares or other property, as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan, including
without limitation Shares awarded purely as a “bonus” and not subject to any restrictions or conditions, convertible or exchangeable debt securities, other rights convertible or exchangeable into Shares, and Awards valued by reference to
book value of Shares or the value of securities of or the performance of specified Parents or Affiliates (“Other Stock-Based Awards”). Such Other Stock-Based Awards shall also be available as a form of payment in the settlement of
other Awards granted under the Plan. The Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of such Other Stock-Based Awards. Except for certain limited situations (including the death or Disability of the Participant or a Change in Control referred
to in Section 14.8), Other Stock-Based Awards subject solely to continued employment restrictions shall be subject to restrictions imposed by the Committee for a period of not less than three years from the Grant Date (but permitting pro-rata
vesting over such time); provided that such restrictions shall not be applicable to any substitute awards granted under Section 14.12, grants of Other Stock-Based Awards in payment of Performance Awards pursuant to Article 9, grants of Other
Stock-Based Awards granted in lieu of cash or other compensation, or grants of Other Stock-Based Awards on a deferred basis. 
 ARTICLE 14

 PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO AWARDS 
 14.1. STAND-ALONE AND TANDEM AWARDS. Awards granted under the Plan may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone or in addition to, in tandem with, any other Award granted under the Plan.
Subject to Section 16.2, awards granted in addition to or in tandem with other Awards may be granted either at the same time as or at a different time from the grant of such other Awards. 
  

 - 14 - 

 14.2. TERM OF AWARD. The term of each Award shall be for the period as determined by the
Committee, provided that in no event shall the term of any Incentive Stock Option or a Stock Appreciation Right granted in tandem with the Incentive Stock Option exceed a period of ten years from its Grant Date (or, if Section 7.2(d) applies,
five years from its Grant Date). 
 14.3. FORM OF PAYMENT FOR AWARDS. Subject to the terms of the Plan and any applicable law or Award
Certificate, payments or transfers to be made by the Company or an Affiliate on the grant or exercise of an Award may be made in such form as the Committee determines at or after the Grant Date, including without limitation, cash, Stock, other
Awards, or other property, or any combination, and may be made in a single payment or transfer, in installments, or on a deferred basis, in each case determined in accordance with rules adopted by, and at the discretion of, the Committee.

 14.4. LIMITS ON TRANSFER. No right or interest of a Participant in any unexercised or restricted Award may be pledged, encumbered,
or hypothecated to or in favor of any party other than the Company or an Affiliate, or shall be subject to any lien, obligation, or liability of such Participant to any other party other than the Company or an Affiliate. No unexercised or restricted
Award shall be assignable or transferable by a Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or, except in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, pursuant to a domestic relations order that would satisfy
Section 414(p)(1)(A) of the Code if such Section applied to an Award under the Plan; provided, however, that the Committee may (but need not) permit other transfers where the Committee concludes that such transferability (i) does not
result in accelerated taxation, (ii) does not cause any Option intended to be an Incentive Stock Option to fail to be described in Code Section 422(b), and (iii) is otherwise appropriate and desirable, taking into account any factors
deemed relevant, including without limitation, state or federal tax or securities laws applicable to transferable Awards. 
 14.5.
BENEFICIARIES. Notwithstanding Section 14.4, a Participant may, in the manner determined by the Committee, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights of the Participant and to receive any distribution with respect to any Award upon
the Participant’s death. A beneficiary, legal guardian, legal representative, or other person claiming any rights under the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Certificate applicable to the Participant, except
to the extent the Plan and Award Certificate otherwise provide, and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Committee. If no beneficiary has been designated or survives the Participant, payment shall be made to the
Participant’s estate. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by a Participant at any time provided the change or revocation is filed with the Company. 
 14.6. STOCK CERTIFICATES. All Stock issuable under the Plan is subject to any stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee deems
necessary or advisable to comply with federal or state securities laws, rules and regulations and the rules of any national securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Stock is listed, quoted, or traded. The Committee may place
legends on any Stock certificate or issue instructions to the transfer agent to reference restrictions applicable to the Stock. 
 14.7.
ACCELERATION UPON DEATH OR DISABILITY. Except as otherwise provided in the Award Certificate or any special Plan document governing an Award, upon the Participant’ s death or Disability during his or her Continuous Status as a
Participant, (i) all of such Participant’s outstanding Options, SARs, and other Awards in the nature of rights that may be exercised shall become fully exercisable, (ii) all time-based vesting restrictions on the Participant’s outstanding
Awards shall lapse, 
  

 - 15 - 

 and (iii) the target payout opportunities attainable under all of such Participant’s outstanding
performance-based Awards shall be deemed to have been fully earned as of the date of termination based upon (A) an assumed achievement of all relevant performance goals at the “target” level if the date of termination occurs during
the first half of the applicable performance period, or (B) the actual level of achievement of all relevant performance goals against target, if the date of termination occurs during the second half of the applicable performance period, and, in
either such case, there shall be a prorata payout to the Participant or his or her estate within thirty (30) days following the date of termination based upon the length of time within the performance period that has elapsed prior to the date
of termination. Any Awards shall thereafter continue or lapse in accordance with the other provisions of the Plan and the Award Certificate. To the extent that this provision causes Incentive Stock Options to exceed the dollar limitation set forth
in Section 7.2(c), the excess Options shall be deemed to be Nonstatutory Stock Options. 
 14.8. TREATMENT UPON A CHANGE IN
CONTROL. The provisions of this Section 14.8 shall apply in the case of a Change in Control, unless otherwise provided in the Award Certificate or any special Plan document or separate agreement with a Participant governing an Award.

 (a) Awards not Assumed or Substituted by Surviving Entity. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, and except with respect to
any Awards assumed by the Surviving Entity or otherwise equitably converted or substituted in connection with the Change in Control in a manner approved by the Committee or the Board: (i) outstanding Options, SARs, and other Awards in the
nature of rights that may be exercised shall become fully exercisable, (ii) time-based vesting restrictions on outstanding Awards shall lapse, and (iii) the target payout opportunities attainable under outstanding performance-based Awards
shall be deemed to have been fully earned as of the effective date of the Change in Control based upon (A) an assumed achievement of all relevant performance goals at the “target” level if the Change in Control occurs during the first
half of the applicable performance period, or (B) the actual level of achievement of all relevant performance goals against target, if the Change in Control occurs during the second half of the applicable performance period, and, in either such
case, there shall be prorata payout to Participants within thirty (30) days following the Change in Control based upon the length of time within the performance period that has elapsed prior to the Change in Control. Any Awards shall thereafter
continue or lapse in accordance with the other provisions of the Plan and the Award Certificate. To the extent that this provision causes Incentive Stock Options to exceed the dollar limitation set forth in Section 7.2(b), the excess Options
shall be deemed to be Nonstatutory Stock Options. 
 (b) Awards Assumed or Substituted by Surviving Entity. With respect to Awards
assumed by the Surviving Entity or otherwise equitably converted or substituted in connection with a Change in Control: if within two years after the effective date of the Change in Control, a Participant’s employment is terminated without
Cause or the Participant resigns for Good Reason, then (i) all of that Participant’s outstanding Options, SARs and other Awards in the nature of rights that may be exercised shall become fully exercisable, (ii) all time-based vesting
restrictions on the his or her outstanding Awards shall lapse, and (iii) the target payout opportunities attainable under all outstanding of that Participant’s performance-based Awards shall be deemed to have been fully earned as of the
date of termination based upon (A) an assumed achievement of all relevant performance goals at the “target” level if the date of termination occurs during the first half of the applicable performance period, or (B) the actual
level of achievement of all relevant performance goals against target, if the date of termination occurs during the second half of the applicable performance period, and, in either such case, there shall be prorata payout to such Participant within
thirty (30) days following the date of termination of employment based upon the length of time within the performance period that has elapsed prior to the date of termination of 
  

 - 16 - 

 employment. With regard to each Award, a Participant shall not be considered to have resigned for Good Reason unless
either (i) the Award Certificate includes such provision or (ii) the Participant is party to an employment, severance or similar agreement with the Company or an Affiliate that includes provisions in which the Participant is permitted to
resign for Good Reason. Any Awards shall thereafter continue or lapse in accordance with the other provisions of the Plan and the Award Certificate. To the extent that this provision causes Incentive Stock Options to exceed the dollar limitation set
forth in Section 7.2(b), the excess Options shall be deemed to be Nonstatutory Stock Options. 
 14.9. ACCELERATION FOR ANY
REASON. Regardless of whether an event has occurred as described in Section 14.7 or 14.8 above, the Committee may in its sole discretion at any time determine that all or a portion of a Participant’s Options, SARs, and other Awards in
the nature of rights that may be exercised shall become fully or partially exercisable, that all or a part of the time-based vesting restrictions on all or a portion of the outstanding Awards shall lapse, and/or that any performance-based criteria
with respect to any Awards shall be deemed to be wholly or partially satisfied, in each case, as of such date as the Committee may, in its sole discretion, declare. The Committee may discriminate among Participants and among Awards granted to a
Participant in exercising its discretion pursuant to this Section 14.9. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan, including this Section 14.9, the Committee may not accelerate the payment of any Award if such acceleration would violate
Section 409A(a)(3) of the Code. 
 14.10. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. 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 Participant’s Continuous Status as a
Participant shall not be deemed to terminate (i) in a circumstance in which a Participant transfers from the Company to an Affiliate, transfers from an Affiliate to the Company, or transfers from one Affiliate to another Affiliate, 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 Participant’s employer from the Company or any Affiliate. To the extent that this provision causes
Incentive Stock Options to extend beyond three months from the date a Participant is deemed to be an employee of the Company, a Parent or Subsidiary for purposes of Sections 424(e) and 424(f) of the Code, the Options held by such Participant shall
be deemed to be Nonstatutory Stock Options. 
 14.11. FORFEITURE EVENTS. The Committee may specify in an Award Certificate that the
Participant’s rights, payments and benefits with respect to an Award shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, in addition to any otherwise applicable vesting or
performance conditions of an Award. Such events shall include, but shall not be limited to, termination of employment for cause, violation of material Company or Affiliate policies, breach of non-competition, confidentiality or other restrictive
covenants that may apply to the Participant, or other conduct by the Participant that is detrimental to the business or reputation of the Company or any Affiliate. 
 14.12. SUBSTITUTE AWARDS. The Committee may grant Awards under the Plan in substitution for stock and stock-based awards held by employees of another entity who become employees of the Company or an Affiliate
as a result of a merger or consolidation of the former employing entity with the Company or an Affiliate or the acquisition by the Company or an Affiliate of property or stock of the former employing corporation. The Committee may direct that the
substitute awards be granted on such terms and conditions as the Committee considers appropriate in the circumstances. 
  

 - 17 - 

 ARTICLE 15 
 CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE 
 15.1. GENERAL. In the event of a corporate event or transaction
involving the Company (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination or exchange of shares), the authorization
limits under Section 5.1 shall be adjusted proportionately, and the Committee shall adjust the Plan and Awards to preserve, but not increase, the benefits or potential benefits of the Awards. Action by the Committee may include:
(i) adjustment of the number and kind of shares which may be delivered under the Plan; (ii) adjustment of the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding Awards; (iii) adjustment of the exercise price of outstanding Awards or the
measure to be used to determine the amount of the benefit payable on an Award; and (iv) any other adjustments that the Committee determines to be equitable. In addition, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide (i) that Awards
will be settled in cash rather than Stock, (ii) that Awards will become immediately vested and exercisable and will expire after a designated period of time to the extent not then exercised, (iii) that Awards will be assumed by another
party to a transaction or otherwise be equitably converted or substituted in connection with such transaction, (iv) that outstanding Awards may be settled by payment in cash or cash equivalents equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of
the underlying Stock, as of a specified date associated with the transaction, over the exercise price of the Award, (v) that performance targets and performance periods for Performance Awards will be modified, or (vi) any combination of
the foregoing. The Committee’s determination need not be uniform and may be different for different Participants whether or not such Participants are similarly situated. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event of a subdivision of the
outstanding Stock (stock-split), a declaration of a dividend payable in Shares, or a combination or consolidation of the outstanding Stock into a lesser number of Shares, the authorization limits under Section 5.1 shall automatically be
adjusted proportionately, and the Shares then subject to each Award shall automatically be adjusted proportionately without any change in the aggregate purchase price therefor. To the extent that any adjustments made pursuant to this Article 15
cause Incentive Stock Options to cease to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, such Options shall be deemed to be Nonstatutory Stock Options. 
 ARTICLE 16 
 AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION 
 16.1. AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION. The Board or the Committee may, at any time and from time to time, amend, modify or terminate the
Plan without stockholder approval; provided, however, that if an amendment to the Plan would, in the reasonable opinion of the Board or the Committee, either (i) materially increase the number of Shares available under the Plan,
(ii) expand the types of awards under the Plan, (iii) materially expand the class of participants eligible to participate in the Plan, (iv) materially extend the term of the Plan, or (v) otherwise constitute a material change
requiring stockholder approval under applicable laws, policies or regulations or the applicable listing or other requirements of an exchange, then such amendment shall be subject to stockholder approval; and provided, further, that the Board or
Committee may condition any other amendment or modification on the approval of stockholders of the Company for any reason, including by reason of such approval being necessary or deemed advisable to (i) permit Awards made hereunder to be exempt
from liability under Section 16(b) of the 1934 Act, (ii) to comply with the listing or other requirements of an exchange, or (iii) to satisfy any other tax, securities or other applicable laws, policies or regulations. 
  

 - 18 - 

 16.2. AWARDS PREVIOUSLY GRANTED. At any time and from time to time, the Committee may amend,
modify or terminate any outstanding Award without approval of the Participant; provided, however: 
 (a) Subject to the terms
of the applicable Award Certificate, such amendment, modification or termination shall not, without the Participant’s consent, reduce or diminish the value of such Award; 
 (b) The original term of an Option may not be extended without the prior approval of the stockholders of the Company; 
 (c) Except as otherwise provided in Article 15, the Committee shall not be permitted to (i) lower the exercise price per Share of an
Option after it is granted, (b) cancel an Option when the exercise price per Share exceeds the Fair Market Value of the underlying Shares in exchange for another Award, or (c) take any other action with respect to an Option that may be
treated as a repricing under the rules and regulations of an exchange, without the prior approval of the stockholders of the Company; and 
 (d) No termination, amendment, or modification of the Plan shall adversely affect any Award previously granted under the Plan, without the written consent of the Participant affected thereby. 
 ARTICLE 17 
 GENERAL PROVISIONS

 17.1. NO RIGHTS TO AWARDS; NON-UNIFORM DETERMINATIONS. No Participant or any Eligible Participant shall have any claim to be
granted any Award under the Plan. Neither the Company, its Affiliates nor the Committee is obligated to treat Participants or Eligible Participants uniformly, and determinations made under the Plan may be made by the Committee selectively among
Eligible Participants who receive, or are eligible to receive, Awards (whether or not such Eligible Participants are similarly situated). 
 17.2. NO SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS. No Award gives a Participant any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company unless and until Shares are in fact issued to such person in connection with such Award. 
 17.3. WITHHOLDING. The Company or any Affiliate shall have the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to
the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, and local taxes (including the Participant’s FICA obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect to any exercise, lapse of restriction or other taxable event arising as a
result of the Plan. If Shares are surrendered to the Company to satisfy withholding obligations in excess of the minimum withholding obligation, such Shares must have been held by the Participant as fully vested shares for such period of time, if
any, as necessary to avoid the recognition of an expense under generally accepted accounting principles. The Company shall have the authority to require a Participant to remit cash to the Company in lieu of the surrender of Shares for tax
withholding obligations if the surrender of Shares in satisfaction of such withholding obligations would result in the Company’s recognition of expense under generally accepted accounting principles. With respect to withholding required upon
any taxable event under the Plan, the Committee may, at the time the Award is granted or thereafter, require or permit that any such withholding requirement be satisfied, in whole or in part, by withholding from the 
  

 - 19 - 

 Award Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding equal to the minimum amount (and not any greater
amount) required to be withheld for tax purposes, all in accordance with such procedures as the Committee establishes. 
 17.4. NO RIGHT
TO CONTINUED SERVICE. Nothing in the Plan, any Award Certificate or any other document or statement made with respect to the Plan, shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate any
Participant’s employment or status as an officer, director or consultant at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue as an employee, officer, director or consultant of the Company or any Affiliate, whether for the
duration of a Participant’s Award or otherwise. 
 17.5. UNFUNDED STATUS OF AWARDS. The Plan is intended to be an
“unfunded” plan for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award Certificate shall give the Participant any rights that are
greater than those of a general creditor of the Company or any Affiliate. This Plan is not intended to be subject to ERISA. 
 17.6.
RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER BENEFITS. No payment under the Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare or benefit plan of the Company or any Affiliate
unless provided otherwise in such other plan. 
 17.7. EXPENSES. The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company
and, if applicable, its Affiliates. The allocation of expenses among the Company and its Affiliates shall be as agreed to by the Company and the applicable Affiliates. 
 17.8. TITLES AND HEADINGS. The titles and headings of the Sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only, and in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings,
shall control. 
 17.9. GENDER AND NUMBER. Except where otherwise indicated by the context, any masculine term used herein also shall
include the feminine; the plural shall include the singular and the singular shall include the plural. 
 17.10. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No
fractional Shares shall be issued and the Committee shall determine, in its discretion, whether cash shall be given in lieu of fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares shall be eliminated by rounding up or down. 
 17.11. GOVERNMENT AND OTHER REGULATIONS. 
 (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, no Participant who acquires Shares pursuant to the Plan may, during any period of time that such Participant is an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission under the 1933 Act), sell such Shares, unless such offer and sale is made (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, which is current and includes
the Shares to be sold, or (ii) pursuant to an appropriate exemption from the registration requirement of the 1933 Act, such as that set forth in Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act. 
  

 - 20 - 

 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, if at any time the Committee shall
determine that the registration, listing or qualification of the Shares covered by an Award upon any exchange or under any foreign, federal, state or local law or practice, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary
or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the granting of such Award or the purchase or receipt of Shares thereunder, no Shares may be purchased, delivered or received pursuant to such Award unless and until such registration, listing,
qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any condition not acceptable to the Committee. Any Participant receiving or purchasing Shares pursuant to an Award shall make such representations and agreements and
furnish such information as the Committee may request to assure compliance with the foregoing or any other applicable legal requirements. The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate or certificates for Shares under the Plan
prior to the Committee’s determination that all related requirements have been fulfilled. The Company shall in no event be obligated to register any securities pursuant to the 1933 Act or applicable state or foreign law or to take any other
action in order to cause the issuance and delivery of such certificates to comply with any such law, regulation or requirement. 
 17.12.
GOVERNING LAW. To the extent not governed by federal law, the Plan and all Award Certificates shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Maryland. 
 17.13. ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS. Each Award Certificate may contain such other terms and conditions as the Committee may determine; provided that
such other terms and conditions are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan. 
 17.14. NO LIMITATIONS ON RIGHTS OF COMPANY.
The grant of any Award shall not in any way affect the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassification or changes in its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any
part of its business or assets. The Plan shall not restrict the authority of the Company, for proper corporate purposes, to draft or assume awards, other than under the Plan, to or with respect to any person. If the Committee so directs, the Company
may issue or transfer Shares to an Affiliate, for such lawful consideration as the Committee may specify, upon the condition or understanding that the Affiliate will transfer such Shares to a Participant in accordance with the terms of an Award
granted to such Participant and specified by the Committee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. 
  

 - 21 - 

 17.15. INDEMNIFICATION. Each person who is or shall have been a member of the Committee, or of the
Board, or an officer of the Company to whom authority was delegated in accordance with Article 4 shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against and from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably
incurred by him or her in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to act under the Plan and against and
from any and all amounts paid by him or her in settlement thereof, with the Company’s approval, or paid by him or her in satisfaction of any judgment in any such action, suit, or proceeding against him or her, provided he or she shall give the
Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf, unless such loss, cost, liability, or expense is a result of his or her own willful misconduct or
except as expressly provided by statute. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, as a
matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.
