dependent. Accordingly, the Plan permits the grant of incentive awards from time to time to selected directors of the Company.

ARTICLE 7

RESTRICTED STOCK

 

7.1.
GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK. The Committee is authorized to make Awards of Restricted Stock to Participants in such
amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as may be selected by the Committee. An Award of Restricted Stock shall be evidenced
by an Award Certificate setting forth the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to the Award.

 

7.2.
ISSUANCE AND RESTRICTIONS. Restricted Stock 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 or distributions on the Restricted Stock). 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. Unless
otherwise provided in the applicable Award Certificate, Awards of Restricted Stock will be entitled to full dividend and distribution
rights and any dividends or distributions paid thereon will be paid or distributed to the holder no later than the end of the calendar
year in which the dividends or distributions are paid to stockholders or, if later, the 15th day of the third month following the
date the dividends or distributions are paid to stockholders.

 

7.3.
FORFEITURE. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of the grant of the Award or thereafter,
upon 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 that is at that time subject to restrictions shall be forfeited.

 

7.4.
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,

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.

 

ARTICLE 8

8.1.
TERM OF AWARD. The term of each Award shall be for the period as determined by the Committee.

 

8.2.
FORM OF PAYMENT FOR AWARDS. Except as otherwise provided in this Plan, payment of Awards will be made in Stock. In
addition, payment of Awards may include such terms, conditions, restrictions and/or limitations, if any, as the Committee deems
appropriate, including, in the case of Awards paid in the form of Stock, restrictions on transfer and forfeiture provisions. Further,
payment of Awards may be made in the form of a lump sum, or in installments, as determined by the Committee.

 

    	6

    	 

    

 

8.3.
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; provided,
however, that the Committee may (but need not) permit other transfers (other than transfers for value) where the Committee concludes
that such transferability (a) does not result in accelerated taxation and (b) 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.

 

8.4.
BENEFICIARIES. Notwithstanding Section 8.3, 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 Committee.

 

8.5.
STOCK TRADING RESTRICTIONS. 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.

 

8.6.
ACCELERATION UPON DEATH OR DISABILITY. Except as otherwise provided in the Award Certificate or any special Plan
document governing an Award, upon the termination of a person’s Continuous Status as a Participant by reason of death or
Disability all time-based vesting restrictions on that Participant’s outstanding Awards shall lapse as of the date of termination.

 

8.7.
ACCELERATION UPON A CHANGE IN CONTROL. Except as otherwise provided in the Award Certificate or any special Plan
document governing an Award, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, all time-based vesting restrictions on outstanding Awards
shall lapse.

 

8.8.
ACCELERATION FOR ANY REASON. Regardless of whether an event has occurred as described in Section 8.6 or 8.7
above, the Committee may in its sole discretion at any time determine that all or a part of the time-based vesting restrictions
on all or a portion of the outstanding Awards shall lapse 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 8.8. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan, including this Section 8.8, the Committee may not accelerate
the payment of any Award if such acceleration would violate Section 409A(a)(3) of the Code.

 

8.9.
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 violation of material Company or Affiliate policies, breach of noncompetition, 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.

 

8.10.
SUBSTITUTE AWARDS. The Committee may grant Awards under the Plan in substitution for stock and stock-based awards
held by employees or directors of another entity who become directors of the Company as a result of a merger or consolidation of
the former 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.

ARTICLE 9

CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE

 

9.1.
MANDATORY ADJUSTMENTS. In the event of a nonreciprocal transaction between the Company and its stockholders that
causes the per-share value of the Stock to change (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, spin-off, rights
offering, or large nonrecurring cash dividend), the authorization limits under Section 5.1 shall be adjusted proportionately,
and the Committee shall make such adjustments to the Plan and Awards as it deems necessary, in its sole discretion, to prevent
dilution or enlargement of rights immediately resulting from such transaction. Action by the Committee may include: (a) adjustment
of the number and kind of shares that may be delivered under the Plan; (b) adjustment of the number and kind of shares subject
to outstanding Awards; (c) adjustment of the measure to be used to determine the amount of the benefit payable on an Award;
and (d) any other adjustments that the Committee determines to be equitable. 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, without the necessity for any additional
action by the Committee, be adjusted proportionately without any change in the aggregate purchase price therefor.

 

9.2.
DISCRETIONARY ADJUSTMENTS. Upon the occurrence or in anticipation of any corporate event or transaction involving
the Company (including, without limitation, any merger, reorganization, recapitalization, combination or exchange of shares, or
any transaction described in Section 9.1), the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide (a) that Awards will be
settled in cash rather than Stock, (b) that Awards will become immediately vested and will expire after a designated period
of time, (c) that Awards will be assumed by another party to a transaction or otherwise be equitably converted or substituted
in connection with such transaction, (d) 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
price of the Award, or (e) 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.

 

ARTICLE 10

AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION

 

10.1.
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 (a) materially increase the number of Shares available under the Plan, (b) expand
the types of awards under the Plan, (c) materially expand the class of participants eligible to participate in the Plan, (d) materially
extend the term of the Plan, or (e) 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
(a) to comply with the listing or other requirements of an Exchange, or (b) to satisfy any other tax, securities or other
applicable laws, policies or regulations.

 

    	8

    	 

    

 

10.2.
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 determined as if the Award had been vested, cashed in or
otherwise settled on the date of such amendment or termination; and

 

		(b)	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. An outstanding Award shall not be deemed to be “adversely
affected” by a Plan amendment if such amendment would not reduce or diminish the value of such Award determined as if the
Award had been vested, cashed in or otherwise settled on the date of such amendment.

 

10.3.
COMPLIANCE AMENDMENTS. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or in any Award Certificate to the contrary, the Board
may amend the Plan or an Award Certificate, to take effect retroactively or otherwise, as deemed necessary or advisable for the
purpose of conforming the Plan or Award Certificate to any present or future law relating to plans of this or similar nature (including,
but not limited to, Section 409A of the Code), and to the administrative regulations and rulings promulgated thereunder. By
accepting an Award under this Plan, a Participant agrees to any amendment made pursuant to this Section 10.3 to any Award
granted under the Plan without further consideration or action.

 

ARTICLE 11

GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

11.1.
RIGHTS OF PARTICIPANTS.

 

		(a)	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).

 

		(b)	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 to terminate any Participant’s service as a director, at any time, nor
confer upon any Participant any right to continue as a director of the Company, whether for the duration of a Participant’s
Award or otherwise.

 

		(c)	Neither an Award nor any benefits arising under this Plan shall constitute an employment contract with the Company or any Affiliate
and, accordingly, subject to Article 10, this Plan and the benefits hereunder may be terminated at any time in the sole and exclusive
discretion of the Committee without giving rise to any liability on the part of the Company or any of its Affiliates.

 

		(d)	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.

 

    	9

    	 

    

 

11.2.
WITHHOLDING. The Company 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 lapse of restriction or other taxable event arising as a result of the Plan.
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
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. All such elections shall
be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.

 

11.3.
SPECIAL PROVISIONS RELATED TO SECTION 409A OF THE CODE.

 

		(a)	General. It is intended that the payments and benefits provided under the Plan and any Award shall either be exempt
from the application of, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. The Plan and all Award Certificates
shall be construed in a manner that effects such intent. Nevertheless, the tax treatment of the benefits provided under the Plan
or any Award is not warranted or guaranteed. Neither the Company, its Affiliates nor their respective directors, officers, employees
or advisers shall be held liable for any taxes, interest, penalties or other monetary amounts owed by any Participant or other
taxpayer as a result of the Plan or any Award.

 

		(b)	Definitional Restrictions. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or in any Award Certificate to the contrary, to the
extent that any amount or benefit that would constitute non-exempt “deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A
of the Code would otherwise be payable or distributable, or a different form of payment (e.g., lump sum or installment) would be
effected, under the Plan or any Award Certificate by reason of the occurrence of a Change in Control, or the Participant’s
Disability or separation from service, such amount or benefit will not be payable or distributable to the Participant, and/or such
different form of payment will not be effected, by reason of such circumstance unless the circumstances giving rise to such Change
in Control, Disability or separation from service meet any description or definition of “change in control event”,
“disability” or “separation from service”, as the case may be, in Section 409A of the Code and applicable
regulations (without giving effect to any elective provisions that may be available under such definition). This provision does
not prohibit the vesting of any Award upon a Change in Control, Disability or separation from service, however defined.
If this provision prevents the payment or distribution of any amount or benefit, such payment or distribution shall be made on
the next earliest payment or distribution date or event specified in the Award Certificate that is permissible under Section 409A.
If this provision prevents the application of a different form of payment of any amount or benefit, such payment shall be made
in the same form as would have applied absent such designated event or circumstance.

 

		(c)	Allocation among Possible Exemptions. If any one or more Awards granted under the Plan to a Participant could qualify
for any separation pay exemption described in Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(b)(9), but such Awards in the aggregate exceed
the dollar limit permitted for the separation pay exemptions, the Company (acting through the Committee or the Head of Human Resources)
shall determine which Awards or portions thereof will be subject to such exemptions.

 

		(d)	Six-Month Delay in Certain Circumstances. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or in any Award Certificate to the contrary,
if any amount or benefit that would constitute non-exempt “deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A
of the Code would otherwise be payable or distributable under this Plan or any Award Certificate by reason of a Participant’s
separation from service during a period in which the Participant is a Specified Employee (as defined below), then, subject to any
permissible acceleration of payment by the Committee under Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ii) (domestic relations order), (j)(4)(iii)
(conflicts of interest), or (j)(4)(vi) (payment of employment taxes):

 

    	10

    	 

    

 

		(i)	the amount of such non-exempt deferred compensation that would otherwise be payable during the six-month period immediately
following the Participant’s separation from service will be accumulated through and paid or provided on the first day of
the seventh month following the Participant’s separation from service (or, if the Participant dies during such period, within
30 days after the Participant’s death) (in either case, the “Required Delay Period”); and

 

		(ii)	the normal payment or distribution schedule for any remaining payments or distributions will resume at the end of the Required
Delay Period.

 

For purposes of this Plan, the term “Specified Employee”
has the meaning given such term in Code Section 409A and the final regulations thereunder, provided, however, that,
as permitted in such final regulations, the Company’s Specified Employees and its application of the six-month delay rule
of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) shall be determined in accordance with rules adopted by the Board or any committee of the
Board, which shall be applied consistently with respect to all nonqualified deferred compensation arrangements of the Company,
including, if applicable, this Plan.

 

11.4.
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 the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

 

11.5.
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.

 

11.6.
EXPENSES. The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company and its Affiliates.

 

11.7.
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.

 

11.8.
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.

 

11.9.
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.

 

11.10.
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.

 

		(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.

 

    	11

    	 

    

 

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.

 

11.11.
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.

 

11.12.
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.

 

11.13.
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.

 

11.14.
INDEMNIFICATION. Each person who is or shall have been a member of the Committee, or of the Board 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 Amendment and Restatement, as amended, or bylaws, as a matter of
law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.

CENTER REIT II, INC. 

2013 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

 

ARTICLE 1 

PURPOSE

 

1.1. GENERAL. The purpose of the
Phillips Edison – ARC Grocery Center REIT II, Inc. 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) is to promote
the success, and enhance the value, of Phillips Edison – ARC Grocery Center REIT II, Inc. (the “Company”),
by linking the personal interests of employees, officers 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
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 and
consultants of the Company and its Affiliates.

 

ARTICLE 2 

DEFINITIONS

 

2.1. DEFINITIONS. When a word or
phrase appears in this Plan with the initial letter capitalized, and the word or phrase does not commence a sentence, the word
or phrase shall generally be given the meaning ascribed to it in this Section or in Section 1.1, unless a clearly different

(c) “Award Certificate”
means a written document, in such form as the Committee prescribes from time to time, setting forth the terms and conditions of

however , that no individual initially elected or nominated as a director of the Company as a result of an actual or threatened
election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors (“Election Contest”) or other actual or
threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of any Person other than the Board ( “Proxy Contest”
), including by reason of any agreement intended to avoid or settle any Election Contest or Proxy Contest, shall be deemed an Incumbent
Director; or

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

(ii) any person becomes a “beneficial
owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act), directly or indirectly, of either (A) 25% or more of the then-outstanding
shares of common stock of the Company ( “Company Common Stock” ) or (B) securities of the Company representing
25% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities eligible to vote for the election of
directors (the “Company Voting Securities” ); provided, however, that for purposes of this subsection
(ii), the following acquisitions of Company Common Stock or Company Voting Securities shall not constitute a Change in Control:

unless immediately following such Reorganization, Sale or Acquisition: (A) all or substantially all of the individuals and
entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the outstanding Company Common Stock and outstanding Company Voting Securities
immediately prior to such Reorganization, Sale or Acquisition beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of, respectively,
the then outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to
vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation resulting from such Reorganization, Sale or
Acquisition (including, without limitation, a corporation which as a result of such transaction owns the Company or all or substantially
all of the Company’s assets or stock either directly or through one or more subsidiaries, the “Surviving Corporation”)
in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Reorganization, Sale or Acquisition, of the
outstanding Company Common Stock and the outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be, and (B) no person (other
than (x) the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, (y) the Surviving Corporation or its ultimate parent corporation,
or (z) any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by any of the foregoing is the beneficial owner,

of directors of the Surviving Corporation were Incumbent Directors at the time of the Board’s approval of the execution of
the initial agreement providing for such Reorganization, Sale or Acquisition (any Reorganization, Sale or Acquisition which satisfies
all of the criteria specified in (A), (B) and (C) above shall be deemed to be a “Non-Qualifying Transaction”);
or

 

(iv) approval by the stockholders
of the Company of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

means Phillips Edison – ARC Grocery Center REIT II, Inc., a Maryland corporation, or any successor corporation.

as a Participant” means the absence of any interruption or termination of service as an employee, officer or consultant
of the Company or any Affiliate, as applicable; provided, however, that for purposes of an Incentive Stock Option, or a Stock Appreciation

ADMINISTRATION

 

4.1. COMMITTEE. The Plan shall be
administered by a Committee appointed by the Board (which Committee shall consist of at least two directors) or, at the discretion
of the Board from time to time, the Plan may be administered by the Board. It is intended that at least two of the directors appointed
to serve on the Committee shall be “non-employee directors” (within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the
1934 Act) and that any such members of the Committee who do not so qualify shall abstain from participating in any decision to
make or administer Awards that are made to Eligible Participants who at the time of consideration for such Award are persons subject
to the short-swing profit rules of Section 16 of the 1934 Act. However, the mere fact that a Committee member shall fail to
qualify under the foregoing requirement or shall fail to abstain from such action shall not invalidate any Award made by the Committee
which Award is otherwise validly made under the Plan. The members of the Committee shall be appointed by, and may be changed at
any time and from time to time in the discretion of, the Board. The Board may reserve to itself any or all of the authority and
responsibility of the Committee under the Plan or may act as administrator of the Plan for any and all purposes. To the extent
the Board has reserved any authority and responsibility or during any time that the Board is acting as administrator of the Plan,
it shall have all the powers of the Committee hereunder, and any reference herein to the Committee (other than in this Section 4.1)
shall include the Board. To the extent any action of the Board under the Plan conflicts with actions taken by the Committee, the
actions of the Board shall control.

 

4.2. ACTION AND INTERPRETATIONS BY THE
COMMITTEE. For purposes of administering the Plan, the Committee may from time to time adopt rules, regulations, guidelines
and procedures for carrying out the provisions and purposes of the Plan and make such other determinations, not inconsistent with
the Plan, as the Committee may deem appropriate. The Committee’s interpretation of the Plan, any Awards granted under the
Plan, any Award Certificate and all decisions and determinations by the Committee with respect to the Plan are final, binding,
and conclusive on all parties. Each member of the Committee is entitled to, in good faith, rely or act upon any report or other
information furnished to that member by any officer or other employee of the Company or any Affiliate, the Company’s or an
Affiliate’s independent certified public accountants, Company counsel or any executive compensation consultant or other professional
retained by the Company to assist in the administration of the Plan.

 

4.3. AUTHORITY OF COMMITTEE. Except
as provided below, the Committee has the exclusive power, authority and discretion to:

 

(a) Grant Awards;

 

(b) Designate Participants;

 

(c) Determine the type or types
of Awards to be granted to each Participant;

 

(d) Determine the number of Awards
to be granted and the number of Shares or dollar amount to which an Award will relate;

 

(e) Determine the terms and conditions
of any Award, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, granted under the Plan, including but not limited to, the exercise
price, grant price, or purchase price, any restrictions or limitations on the Award, any schedule for lapse of forfeiture restrictions
or restrictions on the exercisability of an Award, and accelerations or waivers thereof, based in each case on such considerations
as the Committee in its sole discretion determines;

 

(f) Determine whether, to what
extent, and under what circumstances an Award may be settled in, or the exercise price of an Award may be paid in, cash, Stock,
other Awards, or other property, or an Award may be canceled, forfeited, or surrendered;

 

(g) Prescribe the form of each
Award Certificate, which need not be identical for each Participant;

 

(h) Decide all other matters that
must be determined in connection with an Award;

 

(i) Establish, adopt or revise
any rules, regulations, guidelines or procedures as it may deem necessary or advisable to administer the Plan;

 

(j) Make all other decisions and
determinations that may be required under the Plan or as the Committee deems necessary or advisable to administer the Plan;

 

(k) Amend the Plan or any Award
Certificate as provided herein; and

 

(l) Adopt such modifications, procedures,
and subplans as may be necessary or desirable to comply with provisions of the laws of non-U.S. jurisdictions in which the Company
or any Affiliate may operate, in order to assure the viability of the benefits of Awards granted to participants located in such
other jurisdictions and to meet the objectives of the Plan.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, grants of
Awards hereunder shall not be made to Independent Directors in their capacity as such, it being the intention that grants to Independent
Directors shall be made only in accordance with the terms, conditions and parameters of a separate plan, program or policy for
the compensation of Independent Directors as in effect from time to time.

 

    	5

    	 

    

 

Notwithstanding the above, the Board or
the Committee may, by resolution, expressly delegate to a special committee, consisting of one or more directors who are also officers
of the Company, the authority, within specified parameters, to (i) designate officers, employees and/or consultants of the
Company or any of its Affiliates to be recipients of Awards under the Plan, and (ii) to determine the number of such Awards
to be granted to any such Participants; provided that a limit on the total number or dollar value of Awards to be granted to any
such Participants shall be approved in advance by the Board or the Committee and provided further that such delegation of duties
and responsibilities to such special committee may not be made with respect to the grant of Awards to Eligible Participants who
are subject to Section 16(a) of the 1934 Act at the Grant Date. The acts of such delegates shall be treated hereunder as acts
of the Board and such delegates shall report regularly to the Board and the Committee regarding the delegated duties and responsibilities
and any Awards so granted.

shall be evidenced by an Award Certificate. Each Award Certificate shall include such provisions, not inconsistent with the Plan,
as may be specified by the Committee.

Option is satisfied by delivering Shares to the Company (by either actual delivery or attestation), only the net number of Shares
actually issued by the Company shall be considered for purposes of determining the number of Shares remaining available for issuance
pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan.

 

(e) To the extent that the full
number of Shares subject to an Award is not issued for any reason, only the number of Shares issued and delivered shall be considered
for purposes of determining the number of Shares remaining available for issuance pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan. Nothing
in this subsection shall imply that any particular type of cashless exercise of an Option is permitted under the Plan, that decision
being reserved to the Committee or other provisions of the Plan.

to grant Options to Participants subject to terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee

(b) TIME AND CONDITIONS OF EXERCISE.
The Committee shall determine the time or times at which an Option may be exercised in whole or in part, subject to Section 7.1(d).

be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants; provided, however, that if Shares are used to pay the exercise price of
an Option, such Shares must have been held by the Participant for at least such period of time, if any, as necessary to avoid the
recognition of an expense under generally accepted accounting principles as a result of the exercise of the Option.

(2) The tenth anniversary of
the Grant Date.

 

(3) Three months after termination
of the Participant’s Continuous Status as a Participant for any reason other than the Participant’s Disability or death.

(5) Two years after the Participant’s
death if the Participant dies while employed or during the three-month period described in paragraph (3) or during the one-year
period described in paragraph (4) and before the Option otherwise lapses.

 

Unless the exercisability of the
Incentive Stock Option is accelerated as provided in Article 14, if a Participant exercises an Option after termination of employment,
the Option may be exercised only with respect to the Shares that were otherwise vested on the Participant’s termination of
employment. Upon the Participant’s death, any exercisable Incentive Stock Options may be exercised by the Participant’s
beneficiary, determined in accordance with Section 14.5.

 

(c) INDIVIDUAL DOLLAR LIMITATION.
The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the Grant Date) of all Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are
first exercisable by a Participant in any calendar year may not exceed $100,000.00.

(d) TEN PERCENT OWNERS.
No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to any individual who, at the Grant Date, owns stock possessing more than ten percent
of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary unless the exercise price
per share of such Option is at least 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share at the Grant Date and the Option expires no later
than five years after the Grant Date.

TO GRANT INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS. No Incentive Stock Option may be granted pursuant to the Plan after the day immediately prior
to the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date of the Plan, or the termination of the Plan, if earlier.

a Participant’s lifetime, an Incentive Stock Option may be exercised only by the Participant or, in the case of the Participant’s
Disability, by the Participant’s guardian or legal representative.

 

(g) ELIGIBLE GRANTEES. The
Committee may not grant an Incentive Stock Option to a person who is not at the Grant Date an employee of the Company or a Parent

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.

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 or in installments, 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, 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 pro rata payout to the Participant or his or her estate within thirty (30) days
following the date of termination (unless a later date is required by Section 17.16 hereof) 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 Corporation. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, and except with respect to any Awards assumed by the
Surviving Corporation 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 pro rata payout to Participants within thirty
(30) days following the Change in Control (unless a later date is required by Section 17.16 hereof) 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(c), the excess Options shall be deemed to be Nonstatutory
Stock Options.

 

    	11

    	 

    

 

(b) Awards Assumed or Substituted by
Surviving Corporation. With respect to Awards assumed by the Surviving Corporation 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 pro rata payout to such Participant within thirty (30) days
following the date of termination of employment (unless a later date is required by Section 17.16 hereof) based upon the length
of time within the performance period that has elapsed prior to the date of termination of 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(c), 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 or a Parent
or Subsidiary which constitutes a “parent corporation” or a “subsidiary corporation” for purposes of Sections
424(e) and 424(f) of the Code, respectively, 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.

ARTICLE 15 

CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE

 

15.1. MANDATORY ADJUSTMENTS. In
the event of a nonreciprocal transaction between the Company and its shareholders that causes the per-share value of the Stock
to change (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, spin-off, rights offering, or large nonrecurring cash
dividend), the authorization limits under Section 5.1 shall be adjusted proportionately, and the Committee shall make such adjustments
to the Plan and Awards as it deems necessary, in its sole discretion, to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights immediately
resulting from such transaction. Action by the Committee may include: (i) adjustment of the number and kind of shares that 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee shall
not make any adjustments to outstanding Options or SARs that would constitute a modification or substitution of the stock right
under Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(b)(5)(v) that would be treated as the grant of a new stock right or change in the form of payment
for purposes of Code Section 409A. 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, without the necessity for any additional action by the Committee, be adjusted proportionately
without any change in the aggregate purchase price therefor.

 

15.2 DISCRETIONARY ADJUSTMENTS.
Upon the occurrence or in anticipation of any corporate event or transaction involving the Company (including, without limitation,
any merger, reorganization, recapitalization, combination or exchange of shares, or any transaction described in Section 15.1),
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.

 

15.3 GENERAL. Any discretionary
adjustments made pursuant to this Article 15 shall be subject to the provisions of Section 16.2. 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.

 

    	13

    	 

    

 

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 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
or consultant at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue as an employee, officer 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 the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

 

    	14

    	 

    

 

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.

 

(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.

 

    	15

    	 

    

 

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.

 

17.16. SPECIAL PROVISIONS RELATED TO
SECTION 409A OF THE CODE.

 

(a) General. It is intended that the payments
and benefits provided under the Plan and any Award shall either be exempt from the application of, or comply with, the requirements
of Section 409A of the Code. The Plan and all Award Certificates shall be construed in a manner that effects such intent. Nevertheless,
the tax treatment of the benefits provided under the Plan or any Award is not warranted or guaranteed. Neither the Company, its
Affiliates nor their respective directors, officers, employees or advisers shall be held liable for any taxes, interest, penalties
or other monetary amounts owed by any Participant or other taxpayer as a result of the Plan or any Award.

 

(b) Definitional Restrictions. Notwithstanding
anything in the Plan or in any Award Certificate to the contrary, to the extent that any amount or benefit that would constitute
non-exempt “deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code would otherwise be payable or distributable,
or a different form of payment (e.g., lump sum or installment) would be effected, under the Plan or any Award Certificate by reason
of the occurrence of a Change in Control, or the Participant’s Disability or separation from service, such amount or benefit
will not be payable or distributable to the Participant, and/or such different form of payment will not be effected, by reason
of such circumstance unless the circumstances giving rise to such Change in Control, Disability or separation from service meet
any description or definition of “change in control event”, “disability” or “separation from service”,
as the case may be, in Section 409A of the Code and applicable regulations (without giving effect to any elective provisions that
may be available under such definition). This provision does not prohibit the vesting of any Award upon a Change in Control, Disability
or separation from service, however defined. If this provision prevents the payment or distribution of any amount or benefit, such
payment or distribution shall be made on the next earliest payment or distribution date or event specified in the Award Certificate
that is permissible under Section 409A of the Code. If this provision prevents the application of a different form of payment of
any amount or benefit, such payment shall be made in the same form as would have applied absent such designated event or circumstance.

 

(c) Allocation among Possible Exemptions.
If any one or more Awards granted under the Plan to a Participant could qualify for any separation pay exemption described in Treas.
Reg. Section 1.409A-1(b)(9), but such Awards in the aggregate exceed the dollar limit permitted for the separation pay exemptions,
the Company (acting through the Committee) shall determine which Awards or portions thereof will be subject to such exemptions.

 

(d) Six-Month Delay in Certain Circumstances.
Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or in any Award Certificate to the contrary, if any amount or benefit that would constitute
non-exempt “deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code would otherwise be payable or distributable
under this Plan or any Award Certificate by reason of a Participant’s separation from service during a period in which the
Participant is a Specified Employee (as defined below), then, subject to any permissible acceleration of payment by the Committee
under Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ii) (domestic relations order), (j)(4)(iii) (conflicts of interest), or (j)(4)(vi) (payment
of employment taxes):

 

(i) the amount of such non-exempt deferred
compensation that would otherwise be payable during the six-month period immediately following the Participant’s separation
from service will be accumulated through and paid or provided on the first day of the seventh month following the Participant’s
separation from service (or, if the Participant dies during such period, within 30 days after the Participant’s death) (in
either case, the “Required Delay Period”), and

 

    	16

    	 

    

 

(ii) the normal payment or distribution
schedule for any remaining payments or distributions will resume at the end of the Required Delay Period.

 

For purposes of this Plan, the term “Specified
Employee” has the meaning given such term in Section 409A of the Code and the final regulations thereunder, provided, however,
that, as permitted in such final regulations, the Company’s Specified Employees and its application of the six-month delay
rule of 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code shall be determined in accordance with rules adopted by the Board or any committee of the
Board, which shall be applied consistently with respect to all nonqualified deferred compensation arrangements of the Company,
including this Plan.

 

(e) Grants to Employees of Affiliates. Eligible
Participants who are service providers to an Affiliate may be granted Options or SARs under this Plan only if the Company qualifies
as an “eligible issuer of service recipient stock” within the meaning of §1.409A-1(b)(5)(iii)(E) of the final
regulations under Section 409A of the Code.

 

(f) Fair Market Value of Unlisted Stock.
If the Stock is not listed on a securities exchange, the Fair Market Value of the Stock as of any given date shall, for purposes
of the Plan and any Award, be determined by such method as the Committee determines in good faith to be reasonable and in compliance
with Section 409A of the Code.

 

(g) Design Limits on Options and SARs. Notwithstanding
anything in this Plan or any Award Certificate, no Option or SAR granted under this Plan shall (i) provide for Dividend Equivalents
or (ii) have any feature for the deferral of compensation other than the deferral of recognition of income until the exercise or
disposition of the Option or SAR.

 

(h) Timing of Distribution of Dividend Equivalents.
Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Certificate, any Dividend Equivalents granted with respect to an Award hereunder
will be paid or distributed no later than the 15th day of the 3rd month following the later of (i) the calendar year in which the
corresponding dividends were paid to shareholders, or (ii) the first calendar year in which the Participant’s right to such
Dividends Equivalents is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture.
