C. Plan: This Agreement is entered into pursuant to the Plan.

For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of termination of the Participant’s employment, then the disposition of any unvested shares of Restricted Stock shall be determined in accordance with Participant’s Employment Agreement.

D. Status as Shareholder. Participant will be paid all dividends on all Restricted Stock in the same manner as other shareholders and shall have voting rights for all Restricted Stock.

(c) Participant hereby irrevocably appoints CHCT as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of Participant with full power and authority to execute any stock transfer power or other instrument necessary to transfer any Restricted Stock in accordance with this Agreement, in the name, place, and stead of the Participant, by completing an irrevocable stock power in favor of CHCT in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. The term of such appointment shall commence on the Grant Date of this Agreement and shall continue until the last shares of the Restricted Stock are delivered to the Participant as Vested Shares or are returned to CHCT as forfeited Restricted Stock.

(d) In the event the number of shares of Common Stock is increased or reduced as a result of a subdivision or combination of shares of Common Stock or the payment of a stock dividend or any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock or other transaction such as a merger, reorganization or other change in the capital structure of CHCT, the Participant agrees that any shares of Common Stock or other securities of CHCT issued as a result of any of the foregoing shall be recorded in book entry form and shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement as if initially provided for hereunder.

(a) The Participant shall not have the right to make or permit to exist any transfer or hypothecation, whether outright or as security, with or without consideration, voluntary or involuntary, of all or any part of any right, title, or interest in or to any Restricted Stock prior to the date the Participant becomes fully vested in such Restricted Stock as provided pursuant to this Agreement. After all Restricted Stock has become fully vested pursuant to this Agreement there shall be no restrictions on the transfer of the Vested Shares other than those restrictions imposed by any applicable laws.

(b) The restrictions contained herein will not apply with respect to transfers of Restricted Stock pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution governing the state in which the Participant is domiciled at the time of the Participant’s death; provided that the restrictions contained herein will continue to be applicable to the Restricted Stock after any such transfer; and provided further that the transferee(s) of such Restricted Stock must agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement.

As a condition to the provision of the Restricted Stock, CHCT may require the Participant (or, in the event of the Participant’s death, the Participant’s legal representatives, heirs, legatees or distributees) to provide written representations concerning the Participant’s (or such other person’s) intentions with regard to the retention or disposition of the Restricted Stock and written covenants as to the manner of disposal of such Restricted Stock as may be necessary or useful to ensure that the provision of or disposition thereof will not violate the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), any other law or any rule of any applicable securities exchange or securities association then in effect. CHCT shall not be required to register any Restricted Stock under the Securities Act or register or qualify any Restricted Stock under any state or other securities laws.
