2017 OMNIBUS SHARE PLAN
APPRECIATION-ONLY LTIP UNIT AGREEMENT

This APPRECIATION-ONLY LTIP UNIT AGREEMENT (the “Award Agreement”) is made as of the Grant Date set forth on Schedule A hereto between JBG XXXXX Properties, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the “Company”), its subsidiary JBG XXXXX Properties LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), and the employee of the Company or one of its affiliates listed on Schedule A (the “Employee”).

RECITALS

A.The Employee is an employee of the Company or of a subsidiary of the Company and provides services to the Partnership (and/or its subsidiaries), through which the Company conducts substantially all of its operations.

X.Xx accordance with the JBG XXXXX Properties 2017 Omnibus Share Plan, as it may be amended from time to time (the “Plan”), the Company desires to provide the Employee with an opportunity to acquire Appreciation-Only LTIP Units (as defined in that certain Second Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, dated December 17, 2020 of the Partnership, as amended from time to time (the “Partnership Agreement”)) having the rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption and conversion set forth herein, in the Plan and in the Partnership Agreement, and thereby provide additional incentive for the Employee to promote the progress and success of the business of the Company, the Partnership and its subsidiaries.

C.Schedule A hereto sets forth certain significant details of the Appreciation-Only LTIP Unit grant herein and is incorporated herein by reference. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings provided in the Partnership Agreement and on Schedule A.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Company, the Partnership and the Employee hereby agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1.Xxxxx of AO LTIP Units. On the terms and conditions set forth below, as well as the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Employee the Maximum Number of Appreciation-Only LTIP Units set forth on Schedule A (the “AO LTIP Units”). To the extent vested in accordance with Section 3, each AO LTIP Unit is intended to provide the Employee with the opportunity to share in the appreciation of the value of a Share in excess of the Formation Unit Participation Threshold set forth on Schedule A based on the Formation Unit Conversion Factor and other terms set forth in the Partnership Agreement. The AO LTIP Units will accumulate and/or participate in regular cash distributions made for Common Partnership Units as set forth in the Partnership Agreement, in accordance with the Formation Unit Fraction set forth on Schedule A.

2.Conversion and Term. Subject to earlier forfeiture, termination, acceleration or cancellation of the AO LTIP Units as provided in the Partnership

Agreement, Plan or this Award Agreement, until the Expiration Date (or such later time as set forth in the Employee’s employment agreement), vested AO LTIP Units shall be convertible at the Employee’s election into a number of LTIP Units, as determined in accordance with the Partnership Agreement, which in turn are convertible into Common Partnership Units and common Shares (“Common Shares”) as provided in the Partnership Agreement. For purposes of this Award Agreement, “Expiration Date” means the earlier of (a) the date of the Employee’s termination of employment by the Company for Cause, and (b) the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Grant Date. Unless otherwise provided in an agreement between the Company and the Employee, upon the Expiration Date any AO LTIP Units which have not been converted into LTIP Units shall terminate, be cancelled for no consideration and be without further force or effect.

3.Vesting Period. The vesting period of the AO LTIP Units (the “Vesting Period”) begins on the Grant Date and continues until such Vesting Dates, and subject to such vesting conditions, as set forth on Schedule A. On the first Vesting Date following the date of this Award Agreement and each Vesting Date thereafter, the applicable number of AO LTIP Units specified on Schedule A shall become vested, subject to earlier forfeiture as provided in this Award Agreement. To the extent that Schedule A provides for amounts or schedules of vesting that conflict with the provisions of this paragraph, the provisions of Schedule A will govern. Except as permitted under Section 14, the AO LTIP Units for which the applicable Vesting Period has not expired may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of or encumbered (whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or other legal or equitable proceeding).

The Employee shall have the right to vote the AO LTIP Units if and when voting is allowed under the Partnership Agreement, regardless of whether the applicable Vesting Period has expired.

4.Forfeiture of AO LTIP Units.

(a)If the Employee is a party to a Service Agreement that addresses treatment of equity awards on a termination of employment and ceases to be an employee of the Company or any of its affiliates, the provisions of such Service Agreement will apply as it pertains to any defined terms, and this Agreement will govern to determine the number of AO LTIP Units that become vested and not as it pertains to any defined terms. If the Employee is not a party to a Service Agreement that addresses treatment of equity awards on a termination of employment, Section 4(b) shall govern the treatment of the Employee’s AO LTIP Units exclusively. In the event an entity ceases to be a subsidiary or affiliate of the Company or the Partnership, such action shall be deemed to be a termination of employment of all employees of that entity for purposes of this Agreement, provided that the Committee or the Board, in its sole and absolute discretion, may make provision in such circumstances for lapse of forfeiture restrictions and/or accelerated vesting of some or all of the Employee’s remaining unvested AO LTIP Units that have not previously been forfeited, effective immediately prior to such event.

(b)Upon the Employee’s Disability or death, or if the employment of the Employee by the Company or its affiliate is terminated following the first anniversary of the Grant Date but prior to the fourth anniversary of the Grant Date either by the Company or its affiliate (or a successor thereof) without Cause or by the Employee for Good Reason, then the Employee shall remain eligible to vest in the Vesting Amount specified in Schedule A that would otherwise vest on the Vesting Date immediately following Employee’s termination date, which Vesting Amount shall vest and become convertible into LTIP Units and non-forfeitable as of the Employee’s termination date, or, if the

-2-

Calculation Period (as defined in Schedule A) has not expired as of such date, then on the third anniversary of the Grant Date. Any unvested AO LTIP Units outstanding as of the date of the Employee’s termination of employment without Good Reason or by the Company or its affiliate (or a successor thereof) for Cause, or that remain unvested after the application of this Section 4(b) shall be forfeited and returned to the Company for delivery to the Partnership and cancellation. Upon the Employee’s Retirement, the Employee shall remain eligible to vest in the Vesting Amount specified in Schedule A that would otherwise vest on all of the Vesting Dates following Employee’s termination date, which Vesting Amount shall vest and become convertible into LTIP Units and non-forfeitable as of the Employee’s termination date, or, if the Calculation Period (as defined in Schedule A) has not expired as of such date, then on the third anniversary of the Grant Date.

5.Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, if (a) the Employee holds unvested AO LTIP Units as of immediately prior to a Change in Control, (b) the unvested AO LTIP Units are not continued, assumed or substituted in connection with such Change in Control, and (c) the Employee remains in employment as of immediately prior to the consummation of such Change in Control, then the AO LTIP Units shall vest and become convertible into LTIP Units and non-forfeitable as of immediately prior to the consummation of the Change in Control as follows: (i) if such Change in Control occurs prior to the third anniversary of the Grant Date, then such number of AO LTIP Units shall become vested as determined in accordance with Schedule A, with such calculation performed as of the Change in Control, and (ii) if such Change in Control occurs on or after the third anniversary of the Grant Date and before such AO LTIP Units have become vested, the remainder of the unvested AO LTIPs that were determined to be Earned AO LTIP Units shall become fully vested. The AO LTIP Units shall be considered “assumed” or “substituted” for purposes of the preceding sentence only if each of the following requirements is satisfied, as determined by the Committee, as constituted immediately before the Change in Control, in its sole discretion: (i) the contractual obligations represented by the AO LTIP Units are expressly assumed (and not simply by operation of law) by the successor entity or its parent in connection with the Change in Control with appropriate adjustments to the number and type of securities of the successor entity or its parent subject to the converted or substituted award and to the Formation Unit Participation Threshold which at least preserves the compensation element of the AO LTIP Units existing at the time of the Change in Control; (ii) in the case of a substituted award, it must be of the same type of award and have the same tax consequences to the Employee as the AO LTIP Units; (iii) the vesting terms of the converted or substituted award (including with respect to accelerated vesting upon certain terminations of employment) must be substantially identical to the terms of the AO LTIP Units; (iv) the converted or substituted award must be convertible or redeemable into another security that is itself convertible or redeemable into shares of a publicly traded company, each in a manner substantially identical to the corresponding terms of the AO LTIP Units; and (v) all the other terms and conditions of the converted or substituted award must be no less favorable to the Employee than the terms of the AO LTIP Units (including the provisions that would apply in the event of a subsequent Change in Control).
