ARTICLE 1

EQUITY ONE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

1.1 LIH Voting Obligation. Pursuant to Section 2.6 of the Equityholders Agreement, the Liberty Group has agreed to vote (the “LIH Voting Obligation”) all shares of its EQY Common Stock and Series B Common Stock, in favor of the election of each individual who is supported by the Gazit Group as a nominee for election to the Equity One Board (each, a “Director Nominee”). For purposes of determining the Director Nominees that the Gazit Group will support, the Stockholders hereby agree that Gazit Globe shall be responsible for soliciting recommendations from the other Stockholders and Gazit America prior to the date that the Gazit Group is required to provide notice of its supported Director Nominees under the Equityholders Agreement. Based on such recommendations, Gazit Globe, in its sole discretion, shall determine the Director Nominees who will be supported by the Gazit Group and communicate the same as required under the Equityholders Agreement.

1.2 Gazit Voting Obligation. Pursuant to Section 2.7 of the Equityholders Agreement, the Gazit Group has agreed to vote (the “Gazit Voting Obligation”) all shares of its EQY Common Stock in favor of the election of the LIH nominee approved by the Equity One Board if such LIH nominee is qualified, in the Gazit Group’s reasonable judgment, to serve as a director of Equity One (such qualification being deemed to be present in certain circumstances pursuant to the Equityholders Agreement). For purposes of determining if the LIH nominee is so qualified, the Stockholders hereby agree that Gazit Globe shall be responsible for soliciting recommendations from the other Stockholders and Gazit America prior to the date that the Gazit Group is required to provide notice, if applicable, of its determination as to the qualification of the LIH nominee under the Equityholders Agreement. Based on such recommendations, Gazit Globe, in its sole discretion, shall determine, if applicable, whether the Gazit Group will deem the LIH nominee to be qualified and communicate same as required under the Equityholders Agreement. Each Stockholder hereby agrees that it will vote its EQY Common Stock in accordance with such determination.

ARTICLE 2

RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER

2.1 Gazit ROFOs. Pursuant to (i) Section 3.2 of the Equityholders Agreement, the Gazit Group has the right to purchase any First Offered DR Shares that the Liberty Group desires to sell (that are not otherwise acquired by Equity One) pursuant to the Gazit DRS ROFO and (ii) Section 3.4 of the Equityholders Agreement, the Gazit Group has the right to purchase any First Offered EQY Shares that the Liberty Group desires to sell pursuant to the Gazit Share ROFO . The Stockholders agree that they will each be entitled to participate in the Gazit ROFOs on a pro rata basis (based upon their respective relative ownership of Equity One Common Stock vis-a-vis one another, determined on the date of the Notice of Availability or Shares Sale Offer Notice, as applicable) (the “Stockholder Percentage”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2 hereof.

2

2.2 Exercise of Election. Gazit Globe shall promptly provide to each Stockholder and Gazit America any notices provided to the Gazit Group under the Equityholders Agreement with respect to the Gazit ROFOs, including, without limitation, (i) the Notice of Availability that will be delivered if Equity One does not exercise its rights under the Equityholders Agreement to purchase the First Offered DRS Shares during the Equity One Offer Period and (ii) the Shares Sale Offer Notice, First Notice and Second Notice, as applicable, that will be delivered in connection with the Gazit Share ROFO. With respect to (i) the Gazit DRS ROFO, each Stockholder shall have seven (7) Business Days from the date of delivery of the Notice of Availability to notify Gazit Globe of its desire to purchase the First Offered DRS Shares in an amount equal to its Stockholder Percentage and (ii) the Gazit Share ROFO, each Stockholder shall have the following periods of time to notify Gazit Globe of its desire to purchase the First Offered EQY Shares in an amount equal to its Stockholder Percentage:

(a) Three (3) Business Days from the date of delivery of the Shares Sale Offer Notice if the First Offered EQY Shares have an aggregate value of $30 million or less as computed in accordance with the Equityholders Agreement;

(b) Five (5) Business Days from the date of delivery of the Shares Sale Offer Notice if the First Offered EQY Shares have an aggregate value greater than $30 million as computed in accordance with the Equityholders Agreement; and

(c) Twenty-four (24) hours from the time of delivery of the Second Notice if the First Offered EQY Shares are being sold in a Qualified ROFO Offering.

To the extent any Stockholder does not fully participate in their Stockholder Percentage (such remaining amount, the “Remaining Stockholder Amount”), any Stockholder(s) that have elected to fully participate in their respective Stockholder Percentage (the “Remaining Stockholders”) shall have an additional one (1) Business Day from the expiration of the applicable initial response period (except in the case of a Qualified ROFO Offering which will require that each Stockholder notify Gazit Globe of the amount of shares it will acquire in such event at the same time as it gives its initial response) to elect to participate, on a pro rata basis (based upon each Remaining Stockholder’s respective relative ownership of Equity One Common Stock vis-a-vis the other Remaining Stockholders, determined on the date of the Notice of Availability), in the Remaining Stockholder Amount. Each Stockholder that exercises its right to participate in the Gazit ROFOs shall fund its respective purchase in accordance with the Equityholders Agreement.

ARTICLE 3

For purposes of determining how the Gazit

3

Based on such recommendations, Gazit Globe, in its sole discretion, shall determine the Gazit Group’s position with respect to any Discretionary Decisions and communicate the same as required under the Equityholders Agreement.
