Adoption of Updates to the Executive Severance Plan and Executive Change in Control Severance Plan

On April 27, 2023, our Board of Directors amended the Healthpeak Properties, Inc. Executive Severance Plan (the “Executive Severance Plan”) and the Healthpeak Properties, Inc. Executive Change in Control Severance Plan (the “CIC Plan”).

The amendments to the Executive Severance Plan and CIC Plan included revising the methodology for calculating severance payments under the plans (including any prorated cash bonus payable under the CIC Plan for the year in which a participant’s termination of employment occurs) in the event of a participant’s qualifying termination of employment to clarify that the annual cash bonus portion of the cash severance formula will be based on the greater of (1) the participant’s target level bonus or (2) the average of the participant’s prior three years’ bonus payments from the Company. In the case of the Executive Severance Plan, a participant’s prorated cash bonus payment in the year of termination will continue to be based on actual performance for the quantitative portion, while the qualitative portion will be determined in the Compensation and Human Capital Committee’s discretion. The CIC Plan was also updated to remove the requirement that the Company execute a release of claims in favor of the participant in connection with a qualifying termination of employment, but a participant must still execute a release of claims in favor of the Company as a condition of any severance benefits under the plan. In addition, revisions were made to the “Good Reason” definition (as defined in the Executive Severance Plan and CIC Plan) and amendment provision of each plan.

The foregoing description of the updates to the Executive Severance Plan and CIC Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Executive Severance Plan and CIC Plan, each as amended and restated April 27, 2023, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.15 and 10.16, respectively, to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and incorporated herein by reference.
