This PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of April 22, 2024, is by and between VERIS RESIDENTIAL, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Borrower”), and each of the subsidiaries of the Borrower designated as a Pledgor on the signature pages hereto (together with the Borrower, collectively the “Pledgors” and each individually a “Pledgor”), and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., in its capacity as administrative agent (together with its successors and permitted assigns in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), for the benefit of itself and the Lenders (as defined below) (the Lenders and the Administrative Agent are referred to herein collectively as the “Secured Parties” and each a “Secured Party”) under the Credit Agreement described below and acknowledged and consented to by those certain Subsidiaries listed on Annex A attached hereto (each a “Pledged Subsidiary” and collectively, the “Pledged Subsidiaries”).
RECITALS:
The Borrower has entered into a Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Borrower, the lenders and letter of credit issuing banks party thereto from time to time (the “Lenders”) and the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which the Lenders have agreed to provide certain credit facilities to Borrower. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement (including the recitals) have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement, and, except as otherwise expressly provided, the rules of interpretation set forth in the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference, mutatis mutandis, as if fully set forth herein.
The proceeds of the extensions of credit under the Credit Agreement have been or will be used in part to enable Borrower to make valuable transfers to its Subsidiaries, which include the other Pledgors.
The Borrower and the other Pledgors are engaged in related businesses.
Each Pledgor owns equity interests in the Pledged Subsidiaries as set forth on Annex A attached hereto. Each Pledgor will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Credit Agreement.
It is a condition precedent to the making of loans and the issuance of letters of credit pursuant to the Credit Agreement that the Pledgors pledge and grant the security interests described in this Agreement, and each Pledgor wishes to pledge and grant a security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as herein provided.
Therefore, the parties hereto agree as follows:

DB3/ 204702720.5 | ||
and all of such Xxxxxxx’s rights to receive the foregoing (clauses (a) through (e) collectively, the “Pledged Collateral”).
1.2.Continuing Security Interest. This Agreement creates a continuing security interest in the Pledged Collateral and will remain in full force and effect until the Obligations are paid in full and all Commitments have terminated. If, at any time for any reason (including the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of a Pledgor, a Pledged Subsidiary or any other Person or the appointment of any intervenor or conservator of, or agent or similar official for a Pledgor, a Pledged Subsidiary or any other Person or any of their respective properties), any payment received by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party in respect of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by such Person, this Agreement will continue to be effective or will be reinstated, if necessary, as if such payment had not been made.
1.3.Delivery of Certificates and Instruments. None of the Pledged Collateral is in certificated form. No Pledgor shall take any action (or permit the taking of any action) to cause the membership interests constituting the Pledged Collateral to be or become certificated unless requested by the Administrative Agent in writing (with any such certificates and instruments evidencing or representing any of the Pledged Collateral, in each case properly endorsed in blank and in suitable form for transfer by delivery and accompanied by instruments of transfer endorsed in blank, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent). The Administrative Agent will hold such certificates and instruments until the Obligations have been paid in full and all Commitments have terminated.

Each Pledged Subsidiary agrees that it shall not issue any equity interests to any Person other than the applicable Pledgor.
Each Pledgor agrees that, with respect to any Pledged Subsidiary that is a limited liability company or limited partnership, such Pledgor shall have the right to sell, transfer, assign, collaterally assign or pledge its economic rights, control rights and status as a member or partner, as applicable, in such Pledged Subsidiary at any time and in any manner that is permitted by the applicable LLC Act or LP Act, as applicable, either voluntarily or by operation of law, without the further consent of such Pledged Subsidiary. Each Pledgor (including each applicable Pledgor in its capacity as the general partner, limited partner or member of each applicable Pledged Subsidiary) further agrees to the extent that this Section 1.4 is inconsistent with the terms of the
- 3 -
DB3/ 204702720.5 | ||
operating agreement or limited partnership agreement, as applicable, of any such Pledged Subsidiary, such operating agreement or limited partnership agreement, as applicable, shall be deemed to be amended so as to be consistent with the terms of this Section 1.4 until the earlier of (x) the time the security interest granted hereby with respect to the Securities of such Pledged Subsidiary is released and (y) the termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 4.9 below. Each Pledgor of any Securities in a limited liability company or limited partnership hereby irrevocably consents to the grant of the security interest provided for herein and to the Administrative Agent or its nominee becoming a substitute member, limited partner, or general partner, as applicable, in such limited liability company or limited partnership, as applicable (including succeeding to any management or control rights appurtenant thereto and to such Pledgor’s status as a member of such limited liability company or a partner of such limited partnership), pursuant to a disposition thereof in connection with (or in lieu of) an exercise of remedies pursuant to Article III hereof; provided that such successor member or partner, as applicable, then agrees in writing to be bound by, and a party to, the applicable operating agreement or limited partnership agreement.
1.5.Authorization to File Statements. Each Pledgor authorizes the Administrative Agent to file in any Uniform Commercial Code filing office financing statements and amendments naming the Administrative Agent as the secured party and indicating the Pledged Collateral as the collateral and certain other information required by the Uniform Commercial Code for the sufficiency and acceptance for filings of any financing statement or amendment, in each case as is necessary or required by applicable law in order to create, perfect, maintain and preserve first priority Liens on the Pledged Collateral (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances having priority over such Liens of the Administrative Agent by operation of law) in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to file financing statements or continuation statements, or be responsible for maintaining the security interests purported to be created as described herein. The financing statements may indicate some or all of the Pledged Collateral on the financing statement, whether specifically or generally. Each Pledgor also ratifies its authorization for the Administrative Agent to have filed in any UCC jurisdiction any like financing statements or amendments thereto as set forth in this Section 1.5 if filed prior to the date hereof.

- 7 -
DB3/ 204702720.5 | ||
(a) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and the Administrative Agent has not given notice to the Pledgors of the Administrative Agent’s intent to exercise its rights under Section 3.1(b), each Pledgor will be entitled to exercise any and all management, voting, consent and other rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and to receive and retain any and all cash distributions and other payments in respect of the Pledged Collateral made in accordance with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

After the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, any distributions and other payments in respect of the Pledged Collateral received by a Pledgor will be held in trust for the Administrative Agent, and each Pledgor will keep all such amounts separate and apart from all other funds and property so as to be capable of identification as the property of the Administrative Agent and each Pledgor will deliver such amounts promptly to the Administrative Agent or its designee in the identical form received, properly endorsed or assigned when required to enable the Administrative Agent or its designee to complete collection thereof.

- 8 -
DB3/ 204702720.5 | ||
(f)exercise any or all other rights or remedies available to the Administrative Agent under applicable law or the Loan Documents or any other agreement between the parties.
The Administrative Agent may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise the foregoing rights and remedies in such order, at such times and in such manner as the Administrative Agent may determine from time to time.
1.3.Power of Attorney. Each Pledgor irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent and any officer or agent thereof, each with full power of substitution, as such Xxxxxxx’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and proxy with respect to the Pledged Collateral, in such Pledgor’s name or in such Person’s name or otherwise, and at the Pledgors’ expense, to take any or all of the following actions upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, without notice to or the consent of the Pledgors to the extent permitted by applicable law:
(a)take any or all of the actions described in Section 3.2 and exercise any other right or power granted to the Administrative Agent or a Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or by law;
(b)transfer to, or register in the name of, the Administrative Agent or its nominee any or all of the Pledged Collateral;
(c)exercise all voting, consent, management and other rights relating to any Pledged Collateral; and

Each Pledgor ratifies and confirms all actions taken by the Administrative Agent or its agents pursuant to this power of attorney in accordance herewith.
1.4.Other Rights of the Administrative Agent.
(a)The Administrative Agent will have, with respect to the Pledged Collateral, in addition to the rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement: (i) all of the rights and remedies available to a secured party under applicable law, as if such rights and remedies were fully set forth in this Agreement, and (ii) all of the rights, protections and indemnities set forth in the Credit Agreement, which provisions are incorporated by reference and made a part of this Agreement.
(b)The Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time release or relinquish any right, remedy or Lien it has with respect to a particular item of Pledged
- 9 -
DB3/ 204702720.5 | ||
Collateral without thereby releasing, relinquishing or in any way affecting its rights, remedies or Lien with respect to any other item of Pledged Collateral.
1.5.Disposition of Pledged Collateral. Upon the written request by the Administrative Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:
(a)Each Pledgor agrees, promptly and at its own expense, to assemble any or all of the Pledged Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent.
(b)The Administrative Agent will be entitled to sell the Pledged Collateral on any commercially reasonable terms, and each Pledgor agrees that a private sale or a sale on extended payment terms, or in exchange for property, stock or other consideration will not in and of itself be deemed to be commercially unreasonable. The Pledged Collateral may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels. Any Secured Party may purchase any or all of the Pledged Collateral sold at any public sale and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, may purchase any or all of the Pledged Collateral sold at any private sale, including by a credit bid.
(c)The Administrative Agent may restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers at any sale as to their number, nature of business, financial or business expertise, net worth or financial resources and investment intention or on the basis of any other factors that are commercially reasonable.
(d)Each Pledgor expressly agrees that the Administrative Agent need not give more than 10 days’ prior written notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale of Pledged Collateral or of the time after which a private sale of the Pledged Collateral may take place, and that such notice will constitute reasonable notice under all circumstances. The Administrative Agent will not be obligated to hold any sale pursuant to any such notice and may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale by announcement at the time and place fixed for such sale, and a subsequent sale may be held at the time and place designated in such announcement without further notice or publication. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Pledgor irrevocably waives any right it may have to make a demand of performance or other demand, advertisement, judicial hearing or notice to it or any other Person in connection with the collection, sale or other disposition of, or realization upon, any or all of the Pledged Collateral.
(e)The Administrative Agent may settle, pay or discharge any or all taxes, Liens, claims and other charges with respect to the Pledged Collateral. All sums expended by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 3.5(e) will constitute Obligations secured by the Liens created by the Loan Documents. Neither the Administrative Agent, nor any other Secured Party will have any duty to take any action authorized by this Section 3.5(e), and no sale of Pledged Collateral will be deemed to have been commercially unreasonable by reason of the Administrative Agent’s decision not to take any such action.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Administrative Agent has commenced exercise of the foregoing rights and remedies, upon the cessation of any and all Events of
- 10 -
DB3/ 204702720.5 | ||
Default, the Administrative Agent may continue or suspend its exercise of the foregoing rights and remedies.
1.6.No Marshaling or Right of Redemption.
(a)Except to the extent required by applicable law, neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party will be required to marshal any Pledged Collateral or any guaranties of the Obligations, or to resort to any item of Pledged Collateral or any guaranty in any particular order, and the Administrative Agent’s rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral and any guaranties will be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Pledgor irrevocably waives, and agrees that it will not invoke or assert, any law requiring or relating to the marshaling of collateral or any other law which could reasonably be expected to cause a delay in or impede the enforcement of the Administrative Agent’s rights under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
(b)To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Pledgor irrevocably waives, and agrees that it will not invoke or assert, any rights to equity of redemption or other rights of redemption, appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium that it may have in equity, at law, or otherwise with respect to any Pledged Collateral. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the sale or other transfer pursuant to this Agreement of any right, title or interest of a Pledgor in any item of Pledged Collateral will operate to permanently divest such Pledgor and all Persons claiming under or through such Pledgor of such right, title or interest, and will be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, to any and all claims by such Pledgor or any such Person with respect to such item of Pledged Collateral.
1.7.Application of Proceeds. After the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, or after an exercise of remedies by the Administrative Agent, any cash held by the Administrative Agent as Pledged Collateral and all cash proceeds received by the Administrative Agent from any realization upon the Pledged Collateral may be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral security for the payment of the Obligations and applied by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the Credit Agreement.
1.8.Administrative Agent’s Duties.
(a)The grant to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement of any right or power does not impose upon the Administrative Agent any duty to exercise such right or power. The Administrative Agent will have no obligation to take any steps to preserve any claim or other right against any Person or with respect to any Pledged Collateral.
(b)To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Pledgor waives all claims against the Administrative Agent or its agents arising out of the repossession, taking, retention, storage, operation or sale of the Pledged Collateral except to the extent such actions shall be determined to amount to gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Administrative Agent, as determined in a final non-appealable judgment from a court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Pledgor waives any
- 11 -
DB3/ 204702720.5 | ||
claim it may have based on the allegation or fact that the price obtained for Pledged Collateral sold at a private sale made in accordance with this Agreement was less than could have been obtained for the same Pledged Collateral at a public sale. Subject to the following sentence, all risk of loss, damage, diminution in value, or destruction of the Pledged Collateral will be borne by the Pledgors. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent will have no responsibility to the Pledgors for any act or omission of the Administrative Agent or its agents, except to the extent such act or failure to act shall be determined to be gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Person as determined in a final non-appealable judgment from a court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Administrative Agent be liable for special, punitive indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Administrative Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.
(c)The Administrative Agent does not and will not make any express or implied representations or warranties with respect to any Pledged Collateral or other property released to the Pledgors or its successors and assigns.
(d)The Administrative Agent will be accountable only for such proceeds as the Administrative Agent actually receives as a result of the exercise of its rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and delivery or other accounting of such proceeds or the Pledged Collateral by the Administrative Agent to the Pledgors or the assignee of the Obligations will discharge the Administrative Agent of all liability therefor.
(e)Except as expressly set forth herein or as required under applicable law, the Administrative Agent will have no other duties or obligations under this Agreement or with respect to the Pledged Collateral.
1.9.Indemnity and Expenses. Each Pledgor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, its directors, officers, employees, agents and their respective Affiliates from and against any and all claims, liabilities (including environmental liabilities), obligations, losses, damages, penalties, judgments, costs, expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (“Losses”) that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent or its directors, officers, employees, agents or Affiliates by any Person (including any Lender) in any way relating to or arising out of (a) this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including, without limitation, any amendments, waivers or releases, and any enforcement of this Agreement or any other Loan Document) or (b) any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that a Pledgor will not be liable to the Administrative Agent, its directors, officers, employees, agents and their respective Affiliates for any portion of such Losses resulting solely from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 3.9 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the earlier resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent.

No delay or omission on the part of the Administrative Agent in exercising any right or remedy shall operate as a waiver of such right or remedy or any other right or remedy. A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy on any future occasion. All rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent with respect to the Obligations or the Pledged Collateral, whether evidenced hereby or by any other instrument or papers, shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly, alternatively, successively or concurrently at such time or at such times as the Administrative Agent deems expedient.

- 15 -
DB3/ 204702720.5 | ||
deemed given only when received.

1.13.Credit Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall act hereunder only in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. Any and all actions the Administrative Agent takes or omits to take hereunder shall be covered by the indemnity provisions of the Credit Agreement which shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference herein. In the case of a conflict between this Agreement (including Section 3.8) and the Credit Agreement, the Credit Agreement shall govern the rights and obligations of the Administrative Agent.
1.14.Waiver of Suretyship Defenses. The obligations of the Pledgors shall not be subject to any counterclaim, setoff, deduction or defense based upon any claim a Pledgor may have against a Pledged Subsidiary, any Lender or otherwise, and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and (except by payment in full of all of the Obligations and the termination of all Commitments) shall not be released, discharged or in any way affected by, any circumstance or condition whatsoever (whether or not a Pledgor shall have any knowledge or notice thereof), including, without limitation: (a) any amendment, modification of or supplement to the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or any assignment or transfer of any thereof or of any interest therein, or any furnishing, acceptance or release of any security for the Obligations; (b) any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in respect of the Obligations or in respect of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document; (c) any bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment, composition, liquidation or similar proceeding with respect to a Pledgor or any subsidiary thereof; (d) any merger, amalgamation or consolidation of a Pledgor or a Pledged Subsidiary into or with any other Person or any sale, lease or transfer of any or all of the assets of a Pledged Subsidiary to any Person; or (e) any failure on the part of a Pledged Subsidiary for any reason to comply with or perform any of the terms of any other agreement with a Pledgor; or (f) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge, suretyship defense or other defense of a guarantor (whether or not similar to the foregoing). To the extent permitted by law, each Pledgor irrevocably and unconditionally waives any defense it might have to its performance hereunder, based on any of the foregoing.
