We are pleased to extend to you our offer to join Seritage Growth Properties (the “Company”) as Senior Vice President, Development and Construction, reporting to James Bry, Executive Vice President, Development and Construction. This position will be located at 500 Fifth Avenue, Suite 1530 New York, NY 10110, and we anticipate that you will commence employment with us on April 16, 2019. This letter (the "Letter Agreement") serves as confirmation of our offer, subject to the terms and conditions below.

The key elements of your compensation package and the other conditions of your employment are as follows:

You will receive a one-time sign-on bonus of $25,000. (the "Sign-On Bonus") which will be payable within 30 days following your start date. You will also be paid $100,000 in March 2020, and $100,000 in March 2021, at the Company’s election in cash or in stock.

In the event you voluntarily terminate your employment with the Company without Good Reason (as defined below) or are terminated by the Company for Cause (as defined below) within twelve (12) months immediately following your start date, you will be required to immediately repay the Sign-On Bonus.

You will be eligible to participate in the Seritage Growth Properties Discretionary Incentive Program adopted by the Compensation Committee. Your bonus will be a combination of cash and equity, with the cash bonus target percentage being 40% of your base salary, and the equity bonus target percentage being 20% of your base salary, which will not be prorated for 2019. Any equity award will be subject to the vesting schedule set forth in the Discretionary Incentive Program. You must be actively employed by Seritage Growth Properties on the date that bonuses are distributed in order to receive an award, and all such awards are subject to approval by the Board of Directors. It should be noted that bonuses are discretionary, and may be higher or lower than your target depending on both personal and company performance.

Your employment shall be at will and you may be terminated by the Company at any time with or without Cause. “Cause” shall mean (i) a material breach by you (other than a breach resulting from your incapacity due to death or a Disability) of your duties and responsibilities which breach is demonstrably willful and deliberate on your part, is committed in bad faith or without reasonable belief that such breach is in the best interests of the Company or the Company's affiliates and is not remedied in a reasonable period of time after receipt of

written notice from the Company specifying such breach; or (ii) the conviction of you of a felony (other than vehicular-related). “Disability” shall mean disability as defined under the Company's long-term disability plan (regardless of whether you are a participant under such plan) or if no such plan exists, your inability by reason of disability to perform your duties for 180 consecutive days.

If you are terminated for Cause, you shall not be entitled to any of the benefits or amounts set forth in section 5 hereof (except with respect to section 5(c) to the extent required by law) and all Shares granted to you prior to the date of termination will be forfeited.

Severance. In the event you are terminated by the Company without Cause or resign for Good Reason (as defined below), (i) you shall be eligible for a cash severance payment equivalent to twelve (12) months of base salary (payable in equal installments over a twelve

(12) month period) and a prorated Annual Bonus for the year of termination (based on performance of the Company for the full year in which the termination occurs). The payments and awards contemplated above shall be subject to you continuing to comply with sections 6, 7 and 8 hereof at all times and you signing a release, on the thirtieth (30th) day following termination of your employment, in a form satisfactory to the Company (a "Release"). “Good Reason” shall mean, without your written consent, (1) a reduction of ten percent (10%) or more of your annual base salary, annual cash bonus opportunity and annual equity grant opportunity from those in effect as of the date of this Letter Agreement or, if the reduction does not also apply to other senior executives of the Company equally, then a material reduction of the foregoing; (2) your mandatory relocation to an office more than twenty five (25) miles from the primary location at which you are required to perform your duties on your start date; (3) any action or inaction that constitutes a material breach of the terms of this Letter Agreement, including failure of a successor company to assume or fulfill the obligations under this Letter Agreement; (4) a material reduction in your duties or adverse change in title. In each case, you must provide the Company with written notice of the facts giving rise to a claim that “Good Reason” exists within ten (10) days of the occurrence of such facts, and the Company shall have a right to remedy such event within sixty (60) days after receipt of such written notice.

Change of Control. In the event there is a "change in control" of the Company, the Shares granted to you shall be treated as set forth in the Equity Plan and underlying award agreements as established by the Compensation Committee.

Vacation. You will be eligible to receive up to four weeks of paid vacation per year to be taken in accordance with Company policy at that time, which shall be prorated during you first year of service based on your start date.

Benefits. You will be eligible to participate in all retirement, life insurance, health and welfare programs on a basis no less favorable than other senior executives of the Company, in accordance with the applicable terms, conditions and availability of those programs.

Section 409A. If you are a "specified employee" within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended) ("Section 409A"), to the extent required by Section 409A, you will not be entitled to receive the benefits of section 5(a) hereof until the first (1st) day of the seventh (7th) month following the date of termination of your employment.

Non-Solicitation of Employees. During your employment with the Company and for twelve (12) months following the termination of your employment with the Company, you will not, directly or indirectly, solicit or encourage any person to leave her/his employment with the Company or hire or assist in any way with the hiring of any Company employee by any future employer or other entity.

For twelve (12) months following the termination of your employment with the Company, you will not, directly or indirectly, aid, assist, participate in, consult with, render services for, accept a position with, become employed by, or otherwise enter into any relationship with (other than having a passive ownership interest in or being a customer of) any Seritage Competitor.

Irreparable Harm. You acknowledge that irreparable harm would result from any breach by you of sections 6, 7, and/or 8 hereof, and that monetary damages alone would not provide adequate relief for any such breach. Accordingly, if you breach or threaten to breach this Letter Agreement, the Company may seek injunctive relief in favor of the Company without the necessity of the Company posting a bond. Moreover, any award of injunctive relief shall not preclude the Company from seeking or recovering any lawful compensatory damages which may have resulted from a breach of this Letter Agreement.

14.

Right to Jury. You agree to waive any right to a jury trial on any claim contending that this Letter Agreement or any Release is illegal or unenforceable in whole or in part, and you agree to try any claims brought in a court or tribunal without use of a jury or advisory jury.

For purposes of Section 409A, your right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Letter Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments.

termination”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company.
