These shares are held by EGI-CW Holdings, L.L.C. ("EGI-CW"), which is indirectly controlled by Chai Trust Company, LLC ("Chai"). Two entities, in which trusts established for the benefit of the family of the reporting person, the trustee of each of which is Chai, indirectly own interests, are members of EGI-CW. The reporting person is not an officer or a director of Chai and does not have voting or dispositive power over the shares, and therefore disclaims beneficial ownership thereof, except to the extent of any pecuniary interest therein indirectly held by his family. Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock of Equity Commonwealth, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Equity Commonwealth 2012 Equity Compensation Plan and the Restricted Share Unit Agreement for Trustees (Special Awards) for the Reporting Person. These RSUs will vest on October 28, 2018, subject to the Reporting Person's continued service with Equity Commonwealth through such date. /s/ Orrin S. Shifrin, attorney-in-fact 2017-11-09
