Exhibit 10.4

W. P. CAREY & CO. LLC

RESTRICTED SHARE UNIT AGREEMENT

AGREEMENT dated as of
 _____, between W. P. Carey & Co. LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company (the “Company”), and
 _____ 

(the “Grantee”).

WHEREAS, the Company desires to grant to the Grantee restricted share units (“RSUs”) under the
2009 Share Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), and the Long-Term Incentive Program thereunder,
providing Grantee with the right to receive a common share of the Company (the “Shares”) for each
RSU granted to Grantee.

WHEREAS, the parties to this Agreement wish to provide the terms and conditions upon which the
Company will grant RSUs to the Grantee.

WHEREAS, all capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth
in the Plan.

ACCORDINGLY, the parties agree as follows:

1. Grant of RSUs. The Company hereby grants to the Grantee
 _____ 

RSUs subject to
the terms of this Agreement. Each RSU represents the right to receive a Share, subject to
adjustment as provided in the Plan. RSUs shall not be entitled to voting rights.

2. Vesting and Payment. (a) The Grantee’s rights to any RSU granted under
this Agreement shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable at the rate of [thirty-three and
one-third percent (33
1/3%) per year] during which Grantee serves as an employee of the Company, its
Subsidiaries or its Affiliates except as described below. [February 15]shall be the anniversary
date for purposes of this Agreement so that the first [33
1/3%] of RSUs shall vest on [February 15,
20 ]. Except as provided in this Agreement, if the Grantee’s employment is terminated for
any reason prior to the date on which the RSUs become vested and nonforfeitable, the Grantee shall
automatically and immediately forfeit any such unvested RSUs.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Grantee either dies or becomes totally and
permanently disabled (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended) while employed by the Company, a Subsidiary or any Affiliate, the Grantee’s rights
hereunder shall automatically become fully vested on the date he or she dies or becomes permanently
disabled.

(c) Subject to Section 2(d), if and to the extent earned, one Share shall be paid in
satisfaction of each vested RSU as soon as practicable following vesting, but in no event later
than 21/2 months following the end of the calendar year in which vesting has occurred and the RSU is
no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture.

 

 

(d) If permitted by the Company, Grantee may elect, in accordance with written plans or
procedures adopted by the Company from time to time, to defer the distribution of all or any
portion of the Shares that would otherwise be distributed to Grantee hereunder pursuant to Section
2 (“Deferred Shares”), or result from dividend payments thereon as provided in Section 3. Any
Deferred Shares shall be credited to a bookkeeping account established on Grantee’s behalf under
the Company’s written plans and/or procedures then in effect with respect to such Shares.

3. Dividend and Distribution Equivalents. With respect to each of the RSUs granted
hereunder, each time the Board of the Company shall declare a cash dividend or distribution (or
dividend or distribution payable in property other than Shares) with respect to Shares, then
provided the record date is on or after the date of this Agreement and before the earliest of the
(1) the date on which such RSUs are forfeited, (2) the date on which Shares are recorded or paid in
satisfaction of such RSUs pursuant to Section 2(c), or (3) the date on which Shares that would
otherwise be distributed to Grantee are converted to Deferred Shares under Section 2(d): a cash
payment (or payment of other property) shall be made to the Grantee on the distribution payment
date fixed in such declaration equal to the amount of the distribution payable per Share,
multiplied by the number of such RSUs held by the Grantee as of the record date fixed in such
declaration; provided, however, that the right to payment of such dividend equivalents is
contingent upon Grantee’s employment by the Company on such payment date.

4. Change in Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control of the Company, the
Grantee’s unvested RSUs shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable.

5. Securities Law Compliance. (a) The Grantee represents and agrees that
he or she is acquiring any Shares upon payment of the RSUs for his or her own account and not with
the intention of reselling or distributing the Shares, except as permitted under this Agreement and
any applicable federal and state securities laws.

(b) The Company shall have the right to take any actions it may deem necessary or appropriate
to ensure that any such issuance of Shares complies with applicable federal and state securities
laws.

6. Nontransferability of Benefits. Any RSUs are not subject to the claims
of Grantee’s creditors and may not be voluntarily or involuntarily transferred, assigned,
alienated, accelerated or encumbered.

7. Tax Liability. To the extent required by any federal, state or local
law, the Grantee shall make such arrangements as may be required or be satisfactory to the Company,
in its sole and absolute discretion, for the payment of any tax withholding obligations that arise
in connection with the payment of the Shares underlying the RSUs. The Grantee shall pay such
required withholding directly to the Company in cash upon request or may elect to have such tax
withholding obligation satisfied through withholding shares to be issued pursuant to the RSUs [or
transferring already-owned shares]. The Company shall not be required to deliver any Shares under
this Agreement until such obligations are satisfied.

8. Effect on Employment Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall be
construed as giving the Grantee any right to continued employment with the Company, its
Subsidiaries or its Affiliates. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the terms and
conditions of the Grantee’s employment with the Company shall remain unchanged.

9. Severability. If any portion of this Agreement shall be held invalid or
illegal for any reason, such event shall not affect or render invalid or unenforceable the
remainder of this Agreement.

10. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the Grantee, his or her beneficiary and the Company and its successors and assigns.

11. Notice. Any notice, consent, election or demand required or permitted
to be given under the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing, and shall be signed by the
party giving or making the same. If such notice, consent, election or demand is to be mailed, it
shall be sent by United States certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed to such party’s last
known address, or by facsimile with proof of transmission. The date of such mailing or
transmission shall be deemed the date of notice, consent, election or demand.

12. Administration. The Committee shall have full discretionary authority
to (a) interpret, construe and administer this Agreement and to delegate all or a part of its
duties and responsibilities hereunder, and (b) make all determination as to any rights under the
Agreement. The interpretation and construction of this Agreement by the Committee or its delegate,

interest. Neither the Committee nor any director, officer or Grantee of the Company shall, in any
event, be liable to any person for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with the

omission to act be made in good faith.

13. Amendment. Except as provided herein, this Agreement may not be
amended, altered or modified in a manner materially adverse to the Grantee, except by a written
instrument signed by the parties hereto, or their respective successors, and may not be otherwise
terminated except as provided herein.
