2014 OMNIBUS STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

PERFORMANCE RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

DigitalBridge Group, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), through a web-based grant system supported by Bank of America Merrill Lynch, has granted (the “Grant”) Restricted Stock Units relating to shares of its Class A Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Stock”) to you as Grantee, subject to the vesting and other conditions as set forth in the Grant (the “PSUs”). Additional terms and conditions of the Grant are set forth in the online acceptance form and this Performance Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (collectively, the “Agreement”) and in the Amended and Restated DigitalBridge Group, Inc. 2014 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time (the “Plan”). Each PSU is hereby granted in tandem with a corresponding Dividend Equivalent Right, as further described below. This is not a stock certificate or a negotiable instrument.
PSUs This Agreement evidences an award of PSUs in the number set forth on the online acceptance form accompanying this Agreement, together with an equivalent number of tandem Dividend Equivalent Rights and subject to the vesting and other conditions set forth herein, in the Plan, and in the online acceptance form accompanying this Agreement.
Transfer of Unvested
PSUs
Unvested PSUs may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise encumbered, whether by operation of law or otherwise, nor may the PSUs be made subject to execution, attachment, or similar process. If you attempt to do any of these things, you will immediately forfeit the PSUs.
Vesting
Your rights to the PSUs under this Agreement shall vest in accordance with the vesting conditions set forth in Exhibit A and the online acceptance form accompanying this Agreement so long as you continue in Service through the Third Anniversary Date, subject to the below.

In the event that you experience a termination of your Service for any reason prior to the Third Anniversary Date, except as provided below or in this Agreement, all PSUs granted pursuant to this Agreement shall immediately and automatically be forfeited to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (a) your Service terminates (i) prior to the First Anniversary Date for a reason other than Cause, or (ii) at any time prior to the Third Anniversary Date for Cause, none of your Target Number of PSUs shall remain outstanding and, except to the extent provided below with respect to death or Disability or a Change in Control, all of your Target Number of PSUs shall thereupon automatically be forfeited without payment of any consideration thereof, (b) your Service terminates on or after the First Anniversary Date but prior to the Second Anniversary Date for a reason other than Cause, the number of PSUs equal to one-third (1/3) of your Target Number of PSUs shall remain outstanding, and, except to the extent provided below with respect to death or Disability or a Change in Control, the remainder of your Target Number of PSUs shall thereupon automatically be forfeited without payment of any consideration therefor, (c) if your Service terminates on or after the Second Anniversary Date but prior to the



Third Anniversary Date for a reason other than Cause, the number of PSUs equal to two-thirds (2/3) of your Target Number of PSUs shall remain outstanding, and, except to the extent provided below with respect to death or Disability or a Change in Control, the remainder of your Target Number of PSUs shall thereupon automatically be forfeited without payment of any consideration therefor, and (d) you continue in Service on the Third Anniversary Date, all of your Target Number of PSUs shall remain outstanding. The reduced number of PSUs that remain outstanding on your termination of Service in accordance with this paragraph shall replace your Target Number of PSUs and shall be eligible to vest subject to achievement of the Performance Goals.

For any PSUs that are forfeited in accordance with the foregoing, you will also automatically forfeit to the Company any Dividend Equivalent Right associated with such forfeited PSU.

The foregoing is subject to any express provisions provided in this Agreement, the Plan, or a Services Agreement. To the extent a Services Agreement provides for vesting of the PSUs under this Agreement in connection with a termination of your Service or in the event of a Change in Control (and except as otherwise expressly provided in such Services Agreement), the Target Number of PSUs shall remain outstanding and shall be eligible to vest subject to achievement of the Performance Goals.

Death or Disability
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if your Service terminates prior to the Third Anniversary Date on account of your death or Disability, an additional number of PSUs equal to a pro-rata percentage of one-third (1/3) of your Target Number of PSUs, calculated based on the percentage of the calendar year that elapsed from the beginning of such calendar year through the date of your death or Disability, shall remain outstanding in respect of the calendar year in which the termination of your Service due to death or Disability occurs. The additional pro-rata number of PSUs so determined shall be added to the number determined on account of your termination other than for Cause, and this total instead shall remain outstanding, shall replace your Target Number of PSUs, and shall be eligible to vest subject to achievement of the Performance Goals. The remainder of your Target Number of PSUs shall thereupon automatically be forfeited without payment of any consideration therefor.

Change in Control
If (i) the Company consummates a Change in Control prior to the Cycle End Date and (ii) the Company or a successor entity does not assume the PSUs or substitute equivalent restricted securities for the PSUs in connection with such Change in Control, your outstanding PSUs (which shall not be reduced in accordance with the “Vesting” terms of this Agreement in the event you experience an Involuntary Termination at any time within the three-month period prior to such Change in Control) will vest as of immediately prior to such Change in Control at the Change in Control Value.



 If (i) the Company consummates a Change in Control prior to the Cycle End Date, (ii) the Company or a successor entity assumes the PSUs or substitutes equivalent restricted securities for the PSUs in connection with such Change in Control and (iii) you experience an Involuntary Termination in the period commencing three (3) months prior to such Change in Control and ending twenty-four (24) months following such Change in Control, your outstanding PSUs (which shall not be reduced in accordance with the “Vesting” terms of this Agreement as a result of such Involuntary Termination) will vest (x) as of immediately prior to such Change in Control in the case of an Involuntary Termination prior to such Change in Control or (y) upon such Involuntary Termination in the case of an Involuntary Termination in the twenty-four (24) month period following such Change in Control, at the Change in Control Value. The approval of the Administrator shall be required for any assumption or substitution by the Company or a successor entity described in the foregoing sentence or in the following paragraph.

If (i) the Company consummates a Change in Control prior to the Cycle End Date, (ii) the Company or a successor entity assumes the PSUs or substitutes equivalent restricted securities for the PSUs in connection with such Change in Control and (iii) (A) your Service terminates for any reason more than three (3) months prior to such Change in Control or (B) your Service terminates for a reason other than an Involuntary Termination within three (3) months of such Change in Control, your outstanding PSUs will vest as of immediately prior to such Change in Control at the Change in Control Value.

Forfeiture of Unvested
PSUs
To the extent that some or all of the PSUs do not become vested based on achievement of the Performance Goals set forth in Exhibit A and the online acceptance form accompanying this Agreement for the Performance Cycle, such unvested PSUs and all Dividend Equivalent Rights associated with such unvested PSUs, shall thereupon automatically be forfeited without payment of any consideration therefor.

Dividend Equivalent Rights
For each PSU that vests, a Dividend Equivalent Right shall become payable as of the vesting date. Each Dividend Equivalent Right that becomes payable shall be paid in cash, unless otherwise determined by the Company, at the time of settlement of the underlying PSUs, in an amount equal to the total dividends per share of Stock with applicable record dates occurring during the period beginning on the Grant Date and ending on the delivery date of the shares of Stock. If the PSU linked to a Dividend Equivalent Right fails to vest or fails to remain outstanding and is forfeited for any reason, then (a) the linked Dividend Equivalent Right shall be forfeited as well; (b) any amounts otherwise payable in respect of such Dividend Equivalent Right shall be forfeited without payment; and (c) the Company shall have no further obligations in respect of such Dividend Equivalent Right. The Grantee shall not be entitled to any payment under



 a Dividend Equivalent Right with respect to any dividend with an applicable record date that occurs prior to the Grant Date or after settlement of the PSU. Any payment in respect of Dividend Equivalent Rights shall be treated separately from the PSUs for purposes of the designation of time and form of payments required by Code Section 409A.
Delivery
Delivery of the shares of Stock represented by your vested PSUs, if any, shall be made as soon as administratively practicable after the date on which your PSUs vest, but in no event later than March 15th of the calendar year following such vesting date.

Evidence of IssuanceThe issuance of the shares of Stock with respect to the Grant of PSUs evidenced by this Agreement shall be evidenced in such a manner as the Company, in its discretion, deems appropriate, including, without limitation, book-entry, direct registration, or issuance of one or more share certificates.
Forfeiture of Rights
If you should take actions in material violation or material breach of or in material conflict with any (a) Services Agreement, (b) secondment agreement, (c) Company policy or procedure, (d) other agreement, or (e) any other obligation to any Applicable Entity, the Company has the right to cause an immediate forfeiture of your rights to the PSUs under this Agreement, and you will immediately forfeit the PSUs to the Company.

In addition, if you have vested in PSUs during the two (2)-year period prior to your actions, you will owe the Company a cash payment (or forfeiture of shares of Stock) in an amount, net of any taxes paid or required to be paid with respect to such PSUs, determined as follows: (a) for any shares of Stock that you have sold prior to receiving notice from the Company, the amount will be the proceeds received from the sale(s), and (b) for any shares of Stock that you still own, the amount will be the number of shares of Stock owned times the Fair Market Value of the shares of Stock on the date you receive notice from the Company (provided, that the Company may require you to satisfy your payment obligations hereunder either by forfeiting and returning to the Company the PSUs or any other shares of Stock or making a cash payment or a combination of these methods as determined by the Company in its sole discretion).

Leaves of Absence
For purposes of this Agreement, your Service does not terminate when you go on a bona fide leave of absence that was approved by your employer in writing if the terms of the leave provide for continued Service crediting, or when continued Service crediting is required by applicable law. Your Service terminates in any event when the approved leave ends unless you immediately return to active employee work.



Your employer may determine, in its discretion, which leaves count for this purpose, and when your Service terminates for all purposes under the Plan in accordance with the provisions of the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may determine, in its discretion, that a leave counts for this purpose even if your employer does not agree.

Withholding Taxes
You agree as a condition of this Grant that you will make acceptable arrangements to pay any withholding or other taxes that may be due as a result of the PSUs, the issuance of shares of Stock with respect to the PSUs, or the payment of Dividend Equivalent Rights. In the event that any Applicable Entity determines that any federal, state, local, or foreign tax or withholding payment is required relating to the PSUs or Dividend Equivalent Rights, the Applicable Entity shall have the right to require such payments from you, or withhold such amounts from other payments due to you from the Applicable Entity (including withholding the delivery of vested shares of Stock otherwise deliverable under this Agreement).

Retention Rights
This Agreement and the Grant evidenced hereby do not give you the right to be retained by any Applicable Entity in any capacity. Unless otherwise specified in an employment or other written agreement between the Applicable Entity and you, the Applicable Entity reserves the right to terminate your Service at any time and for any reason.

Stockholder Rights
You have no rights as a stockholder with respect to the PSUs unless and until shares of Stock relating to the PSUs have been issued to you and either a certificate evidencing your Stock has been issued or an appropriate entry has been made on the Company’s books. Other than with respect to the Dividend Equivalent Rights provided in this Agreement, no adjustment shall be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date on which your share certificate is issued (or an appropriate entry is made).

Your Grant shall be subject to the terms of any applicable agreement of merger, liquidation, or reorganization in the event the Company is subject to such corporate activity.

Clawback
This Grant is subject to mandatory repayment by you to the Company to the extent you are or in the future become subject to any Company “clawback” or recoupment policy or any other Board-approved clawback policy that requires the repayment by you to the Company of compensation paid by the Company to you in the event that you fail to comply with, or violate, the terms or requirements of such policy, or pursuant to any applicable laws which impose mandatory recoupment.
 
Applicable LawThis Agreement will be interpreted and enforced under the laws of the State of New York, other than any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of this Agreement to the substantive law of another jurisdiction.



The Plan
The text of the Plan is incorporated into this Agreement by reference.

Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in the Plan and have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

This Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between you and the Company regarding this Grant. Any prior agreements, commitments, or negotiations concerning this Grant are superseded; except that any written employment, consulting, confidentiality, non-competition, non-solicitation, and/or severance agreement between you and any Applicable Entity (each a “Services Agreement”) shall supersede this Agreement with respect to its subject matter.

Data Privacy
In order to administer the Plan, an Applicable Entity may process personal data about you. Such data includes, but is not limited to, information provided in this Agreement and any changes thereto, other appropriate personal and financial data about you, such as your contact information, payroll information, and any other information that might be deemed appropriate by the Applicable Entity to facilitate the administration of the Plan.

By accepting this Grant, you give explicit consent to any Applicable Entity to process any such personal data.

Code Section 409A
The Grant of PSUs under this Agreement is intended to be exempt from, or to comply with, Code Section 409A to the extent subject thereto, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement will be interpreted and administered to be in compliance with Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or this Agreement, neither an Applicable Entity nor the Administrator will have any obligation to take any action to prevent the assessment of any excise tax or penalty on you under Code Section 409A, and neither an Applicable Entity nor the Administrator will have any liability to you for such tax or penalty.

To the extent that the PSUs constitute “deferred compensation” under Section 409A, a termination of Service occurs only upon an event that would be a “Separation from Service” within the meaning of Section 409A. If, at the time of your Separation from Service, (a) you are a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A, and (b) the Company makes a good faith determination that an amount payable on account of your Separation from Service constitutes deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A), the payment of which is required to be delayed pursuant to the six (6)-month delay rule set forth in Section 409A to avoid taxes or penalties under Section 409A (the “Delay Period”), then the Company will not pay such amount on the otherwise scheduled payment date but will instead pay it in a lump sum on the first business day after the Delay Period (or upon your death, if earlier), without interest. Each installment of PSUs that vest under this Agreement (if there is more than one installment) will be considered one of a series of separate payments for purposes of Section 409A.




Certain Definitions
For the purposes of this Agreement (including Exhibit A), the following terms shall be defined as set forth below:

Affiliate” means, with respect to the Company, any company or other trade or business that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company within the meaning of Rule 405 of Regulation C under the Securities Act, including, without limitation, any Subsidiary or, in the Administrator’s discretion, any majority-owned Subsidiary of the Company.

Applicable Entity” means the Company and its Affiliates

Cause” means, unless otherwise provided in a Services Agreement, with respect to any Grantee, as determined by the Company, (a) repeated violations by such Grantee of such Grantee’s obligations to the Applicable Entity (other than as a result of incapacity due to physical or mental illness) which are demonstrably willful and deliberate on such Grantee’s part, which are committed in bad faith or without reasonable belief that such violations are in the best interests of the Applicable Entity, and which are not remedied within a reasonable period of time after such Grantee’s receipt of written notice from the Applicable Entity specifying such violations; (b) the conviction of such Grantee of a felony involving an act of dishonesty intended to result in substantial personal enrichment of such Grantee at the expense of the Applicable Entity; or (c) prior to a Change in Control, such other events as shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. Any determination by the Administrator whether an event constituting Cause shall have occurred shall be final, binding, and conclusive.

Change in Control Value” means the greater of (i) your outstanding Target Number of PSUs or (ii) the number of PSUs you have been entitled to in accordance with the vesting conditions set forth in Exhibit A, (A) treating the end of the most recently completed fiscal year prior to the Change in Control as the Cycle End Date, if vesting in connection with such Change in Control or (B) treating the end of the most recently completed fiscal year prior to your termination of employment as the Cycle End Date, if vesting following such Change in Control.

Commencement Date” means the first day of the Performance Cycle.
Cycle End Date” means the last day of the Performance Cycle or such earlier date determined pursuant to the terms of the Plan or this Agreement.

expiration of an Incentive Stock Option following termination of the Grantee’s Service, Disability shall mean the Grantee is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of a medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or which has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months.

First Anniversary Date” means the first anniversary of the Commencement Date.

Involuntary Termination” means termination of your Service by reason of (i) your involuntary dismissal by an Applicable Entity for reasons other than Cause; or (ii) your voluntary resignation for Good Reason as defined in a Services Agreement, or if none, then your voluntary resignation following (x) a substantial adverse alteration in your title or responsibilities from those in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control; (y) a reduction in your annual base salary as of immediately prior to the Change in Control (or as the same may be increased from time to time) or a material reduction in your annual target bonus opportunity as of immediately prior to the Change in Control; or (z) the relocation of your principal place of employment to a location more than thirty-five (35) miles from your principal place of employment as of the Change in Control or an Applicable Entity requiring you to be based anywhere other than such principal place of employment (or permitted relocation thereof) except for required travel on the Applicable Entity’s business to an extent substantially consistent with your business travel obligations as of immediately prior to the Change in Control.

If the Service Provider’s employment or other service relationship is with an Affiliate of the Company and that entity ceases to be an Affiliate of the Company, a termination of Service shall be deemed to have occurred when the entity ceases to be an Affiliate of the Company unless otherwise determined by the Administrator or the Service Provider transfers his or her employment or other service relationship to the Company or its remaining Affiliates.




Service Provider” means an officer, director (including a Non-Employee Director), employee, co-employee, consultant or advisor providing services to an Applicable Entity.
