RESTRICTED STOCK GRANT AND ACKNOWLEDGMENT

(Replacement Award for BRE Retail Holdco L.P. Units)

THIS RESTRICTED STOCK GRANT AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT (the “Agreement”), is made effective as of the date set forth on the signature page (the “Signature Page”) attached hereto (the “Date of Grant”), between Brixmor Property Group Inc. (together with its successors and assigns, the “Company”), the participant identified on the Signature Page attached hereto (the “Participant”) and BRE Retail Holdco L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”).

R E C I T A L S:

WHEREAS, the Participant holds a number of Class A-2 Units (the “Class A-2 Units”) and/or Class B Units (the “Class B Units” and, together with the Class A-2 Units, if any, the “Units”) of the Partnership specified on the signature page hereto, which Units were issued pursuant to one or more Management Subscription Agreements (collectively, the “Subscription Agreements”);

WHEREAS, all of the Participant’s Units are being cancelled and the Participant is to receive cash and shares (“Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.01, of the Company (“Common Stock”) in redemption of the Units (the “Redemption”), effective prior to or substantially concurrent with the consummation of the initial public offering of the Common Stock (the “Redemption Date”);

WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Brixmor Property Group Inc. 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the terms of which Plan are incorporated herein by reference and made a part of this Agreement, and capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as in the Plan; and

WHEREAS, as of the Redemption Date, the Units will be cancelled and will cease to be issued and outstanding and the Participant shall receive Shares with an equivalent value based on the IPO Price (as defined below), as described herein and otherwise subject to the terms hereof and the Plan;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties agree as follows:

1. The Shares.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and the additional terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and effective as of the Redemption Date, the Company and the Partnership will cause the Units to be cancelled and the Participant to receive, in redemption of such cancellation, (i) a cash payment (the “Cash Payment”) in the amount specified on the Signature Page hereto and (ii) the number of vested Shares (“Vested Shares”) and unvested Shares (the “Unvested Restricted Shares”) to be specified by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Committee”) on the Signature Page hereto (the Vested Shares and Unvested Restricted Shares collectively, the “Restricted Shares”).

Brixmor Property Group Inc.

Page 2

(b) The number of Restricted Shares shall be calculated by the Committee in its sole discretion, such that (x) the intrinsic value of all such Units (calculated based on the price at which Common Stock is sold in the Company’s initial public offering (the “IPO”, such price, the “IPO Price”), the number of such Shares held by the Partnership prior to the Redemption and the relative rights and priorities applicable to the Units under the Partnership’ organizational documents immediately prior to the Redemption) is at least equal to (y) the sum of (i) the Cash Payment plus (ii) the intrinsic value of all such Shares using the IPO Price, in each case as calculated by the Committee. Any fractional Vested Shares or Unvested Restricted Shares will be canceled for no consideration.

(c) The Vested Shares shall not be subject to any forfeiture restrictions. The Unvested Restricted Shares shall vest and become nonforfeitable Vested Shares in accordance with Schedule I attached hereto.

(d) If Participant’s employment with the Company and its subsidiaries is terminated at any time, all Unvested Restricted Shares shall automatically and immediately be forfeited and canceled (after giving effect to any acceleration of vesting or other terms set forth in Schedule I attached hereto).

(e) Within 10 days after the Redemption Date, the Participant shall provide the Company with a copy of a completed election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. The Participant shall timely (within 30 days) file (via certified mail, return receipt requested) such election with the Internal Revenue Service, and thereafter shall certify to the Company that the Participant has made such timely filing and furnish a copy of such filing to the Company. The Participant should consult his or her tax advisor regarding the consequences of a Section 83(b) election, as well as the receipt, vesting, holding and sale of the Restricted Shares.

(f) Participant acknowledges that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and accordingly, may not be sold or transferred except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an applicable exemption therefrom.

2. Prior Agreements; Restrictive Covenants.

(a) Restrictive Covenants. Participant acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive nature of the businesses of the Company and its Affiliates and accordingly agrees, in his capacity as an investor and equity holder in the Company, to the provisions of Appendix A to this Agreement (the “Restrictive Covenants”). Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s remedies at law for a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of Appendix A would be inadequate and the Company would suffer irreparable damages as a result of such breach or threatened breach. In recognition of this fact, Participant agrees that, in the event of such a breach or threatened breach, in addition to any remedies at law, the Partnership and the Company, without posting any bond, shall be entitled to cease making any payments or providing any benefit otherwise required by this Agreement and obtain equitable relief in the form of specific

Brixmor Property Group Inc.

Page 3

performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then be available. Notwithstanding the foregoing and Appendix A, the provisions of Section 1.1 of Appendix A shall not apply to the Participant if Participant’s principal place of employment when the Units were obtained is located in the State of California. For the avoidance of doubt, the Restrictive Covenants contained in this Agreement are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other restrictive covenants or similar covenants or agreements between the Participant and the Company or any of its Affiliates. For purposes of this Agreement, “Restrictive Covenant Violation” means Participant’s breach of any of the Restrictive Covenants or any similar provision applicable to Participant.

(b) Repayment of Proceeds. In the event of a Restrictive Covenant Violation or the Company discovers after a termination of employment that grounds for a termination of employment with Cause existed at the time thereof, then Participant shall be required, in addition to any other remedy available (on a non-exclusive basis), to pay to the Company, within 10 business days’ of the Company’s request to Participant therefor, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the aggregate after-tax proceeds (taking into account all amounts of tax that would be recoverable upon a claim of loss for payment of such proceeds in the year of repayment) Participant received upon the sale or other disposition of, or distributions in respect of, (A) prior to the Redemption Date, the Units, and (B) the Shares issued hereunder (plus the Cash Payment) over (ii) the aggregate Cost of such Shares. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cost” means, in respect of any Share, the amount paid by Participant for the Units that were exchanged for such Share, as proportionately adjusted for all subsequent distributions on the Shares and other recapitalizations and less the amount of any distributions made with respect to (x) prior to the Redemption Date, the Unit or (y) the Share pursuant to the Company’s organizational documents; provided that Cost may not be less than zero. Any reference in this Agreement to grounds existing for a termination of employment with Cause shall be determined without regard to any notice period, cure period, or other procedural delay or event required prior to finding of or termination with, Cause.

(c) Class B Units. Participant acknowledges and agrees that references to the value of Class B Units in the Partnership in Participant’s employment agreement with the Company (or any affiliate) shall hereafter be deemed to be a reference to the value of the Shares (and the Cash Payment) (plus the shares and cash payment received in respect of BPG Subsidiary Inc. on terms substantially similar to those set forth herein) received hereunder for purposes of calculating the value of any severance or similar amounts payable upon a termination of employment.

3. Book Entry; Certificates. The Company shall recognize the Participant’s ownership of Shares through uncertificated book entry. If elected by the Company, certificates evidencing the Shares may be issued by the Company and any such certificates shall be registered in the Participant’s name on the stock transfer books of the Company promptly after the date hereof, but shall remain in the physical custody of the Company or its designee at all times prior to the later of (x) the vesting of Unvested Restricted Shares pursuant to this Agreement and (y) the expiration of any transfer restrictions set forth in this Agreement or otherwise applicable to the Shares. As soon as practicable following such time, any certificates for the Shares shall be delivered to the Participant or to the Participant’s legal guardian or representative along with the stock powers relating thereto. No certificates shall be issued for fractional Shares. To the extent required by the

Brixmor Property Group Inc.

Page 4

Company, the Participant shall deliver to the Company a stock power, duly endorsed in blank, relating to the Shares that have not previously vested. However, the Company shall not be liable to the Participant for damages relating to any delays in issuing the certificates (if any) to the Participant, any loss by the Participant of the certificates, or any mistakes or errors in the issuance of the certificates or in the certificates themselves.

4. Rights as a Stockholder. The Participant shall be the record owner of the Shares until or unless such Shares are forfeited pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and as record owner shall be entitled to all rights of a common stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, voting rights with respect to the Restricted Shares and rights to dividends or other distributions; provided that the Shares shall be subject to the limitations on transfer and encumbrance set forth in Section 7.

5. Legend. To the extent applicable, all book entries (or certificates, if any) representing the Shares delivered to the Participant as contemplated by Section 3 above shall be subject to the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which such Shares are listed, and any applicable Federal or state laws, and the Company may cause notations to be made next to the book entries (or a legend or legends put on certificates, if any) to make appropriate reference to such restrictions. Any such book entry notations (or legends on certificates, if any) shall include a description to the effect of the restrictions set forth in Sections 1 and 7 hereof.

6. No Right to Continued Employment. Neither the Plan nor this Agreement nor the Participant’s receipt of the Shares hereunder shall impose any obligation on the Company or any Affiliate to continue the employment or engagement of the Participant. Further, the Company or any Affiliate (as applicable) may at any time terminate the employment or engagement of such Participant, free from any liability or claim under the Plan or this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.

7. Assignment Restrictions; Lock-up.

(a) The Unvested Restricted Shares may not, at any time prior to becoming vested pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, be Assigned and any such purported Assignment shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or any Affiliate; provided that the designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute an Assignment. In addition, until the earliest of (i) the occurrence of a Change of Control and (ii) the date that is six (6) months from the closing date of the IPO with respect to Shares issued in connection with the cancellation of Class B Units, no holder of Shares may Assign any such Shares which are Vested Shares, except in an Exempt Employee Assignment. Participant further hereby agrees that Participant shall, without further action on the part of Participant, be bound by the provisions of the lock-up letter executed by the executive officers of the Company to the same extent as if Participant had directly executed such lock-up letter himself or herself. Such lock-up letter will provide that Participant shall not, subject to specified exceptions, not to dispose of or hedge any shares of common stock of the Company or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of common stock of the Company during the period from the date of the final prospectus relating to the IPO and continuing through the date 180 days after the date of such prospectus, except with the prior written consent of the representatives of the underwriters. The 180-day restricted period described in the preceding sentence will be

(b) “Assign” or “Assignment” shall mean (in either the noun or the verb form, including with respect to the verb form, all conjugations thereof within their correlative meanings) with respect to any security, the gift, sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition (whether for or without consideration, whether directly or indirectly, and whether voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law) of such security or any interest therein.

(c) “Exempt Employee Assignment” shall mean an Assignment of Vested Shares (i) pursuant to an exercise of tag-along rights or registration rights under any applicable registration rights agreement, (ii) in connection with a Change of Control transaction, (iii) to the Company or one of its Affiliates, (iv) upon the death of the holder pursuant to the applicable laws of descent and distribution, (v) if expressly permitted by Section 7(a) herein, (vi) solely to or among the Participant’s Family Group (as defined below) or (vii) incidental to the exercise, conversion or exchange of the Shares in accordance with their terms, any combination of the Shares, or any recapitalization, reorganization, or reclassification of, or any merger or consolidation involving, the Company. “Family Group” means with respect to any individual, such individual’s spouse and descendants (whether natural or adopted) and any trust, partnership, limited liability company or similar vehicle established and maintained solely for the benefit of (or the sole members or partners of which are) such individual, such individual’s spouse and/or such individual’s descendants.

8. Withholding. The Participant may be required to pay to the Company or any Affiliate and the Company shall have the right and is hereby authorized to withhold, any applicable withholding taxes in respect of the Shares, their grant or vesting or any payment or transfer with respect to the Shares at the minimum applicable statutory rates, and to take such action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Committee to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such withholding taxes.

9. Securities Laws; Cooperation. Upon the vesting of any Unvested Restricted Shares, the Participant will make or enter into such written representations, warranties and agreements as the Committee may reasonably request in order to comply with applicable securities laws, the Plan or with this Agreement. Participant further agrees to cooperate with the Company in taking any action reasonably necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

10. Notices. Any notice necessary under this Agreement shall be addressed to the Company in care of its Secretary at the principal executive office of the Company and to the Participant at the address appearing in the personnel records of the Company for such Participant or to either party at such other address as either party hereto may hereafter designate in writing to the other.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Participant’s ownership solely as an investor of two percent (2%) or less of the outstanding securities of any class of any publicly-traded securities of any company shall not, by itself, be considered to be competition with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.
