Explanation of responses
- F1Represents a grant of performance based awards pursuant to the Education Realty Trust, Inc. ("EdR") 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), which will vest upon continued employment at the end of a three year performance period provided that certain performance criteria are met over that three year period. The reporting person has elected to receive her performance based award in the form of profit-only interests ("POIs") in Education Realty Operating Partnership, LP (the "Operating Partnership"), a subsidiary of EdR. Each performance based award represents a contingent right to receive 0-100% of that number of POIs based upon the achievement of certain performance criteria set forth in the Plan. The amount presented represents the maximum number of POIs that the reporting person can receive upon achieving the maximum performance (or 100%) level.
- F2Upon the occurrence of certain capital account equalization events, the POIs will become ordinary units of the Operating Partnership and be exchangeable for cash or, at EdR's option, shares of EdR's common stock on a one-for-one basis.
- F3The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of EdR approved the total dollar value of a grant of performance based awards on February 4, 2016, at a fair value per unit to be determined.

On February 8, 2016, the valuation report was finalized and the grant of POIs was determined.
