THIS PROFITS INTEREST UNITS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of [                ] (the “Grant Date”), by and between Parkway Properties LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), and [                            ] (the “Participant”). Capitalized terms used in this Agreement but not otherwise defined herein shall have their respective meanings set forth in the Plan or the Partnership Agreement (each as defined below), as applicable.

WHEREAS, Parkway Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) and the Partnership maintain the Parkway Properties, Inc. and Parkway Properties LP 2013 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”);

WHEREAS, the Company and the Partnership wish to carry out the Plan (the terms of which are hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of this Agreement);

WHEREAS, Section 12(c) of the Plan authorizes the issuance of Profits Interest Units (LTIP Units) to Employees, Directors or Consultants for the performance of services to or for the benefit of the Partnership in the individual’s capacity as a Partner or in anticipation of the Participant becoming a Partner;

WHEREAS, the Committee, appointed to administer the Plan, has determined that it would be to the advantage and in the best interest of the Company, in its own capacity and in its capacity as the sole stockholder of Parkway Properties General Partners, Inc. (the “General Partner”), in its individual capacity and as sole general partner of the Partnership, and the Company’s stockholders to issue to the Award (as defined below) as an inducement to the Participant to provide services to or for the benefit of the Partnership, and as an additional incentive to continue in the service of the Company; and

WHEREAS, if the Company’s stockholders do not approve the Plan within twelve (12) months of the Board’s initial adoption of the Plan on December 19, 2012, the Award and the Profits Interest Units automatically shall terminate and be forfeited on such twelve (12)-month anniversary, and the Participant shall have no further right or interest in or with respect to the Profits Interest Units (or such proportionate amount of the Participant’s Capital Account balance).

        THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

        1.    Issuance of Award. In consideration of the Participant’s agreement to provide services to or for the benefit of the Partnership, effective as of the Grant Date, the Partnership hereby issues to the Participant an Award (the “Award”) of [            ] Profits Interest Units (LTIP Units) of the Partnership (the “Total Profits Interest Units”), which will be subject to (a) vesting as provided in Section 2 below and (b) forfeiture as provided in Section 3 below. If not already a Partner, the Partnership admits the Participant as a Partner of the Partnership on the terms and conditions set forth herein, in the Plan and in the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of Partnership Properties LP, as amended (the “Partnership Agreement”). The Partnership and the Participant acknowledge and agree that the Profits Interest Units are hereby issued to the Participant for the performance of services to or for the benefit of the Partnership in his or her capacity as a Partner or in

anticipation of the Participant becoming a Partner. Upon receipt of the Award, the Participant shall, automatically and without further action on his or her part, be deemed to be a party to, signatory of and bound by the Partnership Agreement. At the request of the Partnership, the Participant shall execute the Partnership Agreement or a counterpart signature page thereto. The Participant acknowledges that the Partnership from time to time may issue or cancel (or otherwise modify) Profits Interest Units in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement.

        2.    Vesting. The Profits Interest Units shall vest in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2. The number of Profits Interest Units that Fully Vest on any Vesting Date shall be rounded to the nearest whole Profits Interest Unit, but in no event shall the aggregate number of Profits Interest Units that Fully Vest and become payable in accordance with this award exceed the Total Profits Interest Units.

                2.1    TSR Performance. Subject to and conditioned upon the Participant’s continued Service through the End Date and further subject to Sections 2.2 and 3 below, the Participant shall be eligible to Fully Vest on the End Date in a number of Profits Interest Units determined by multiplying the Total Profits Interest Units granted hereby by a percentage ranging from zero to one hundred percent (100%) based on the level at which TSR Value has been attained during the Performance Period through the End Date, determined as follows: if, as of the End Date, TSR Value represents an increase from the Baseline Price ranging from (and including) a twenty-four percent (24%) increase to a forty-two percent (42%) increase, a number of Profits Interest Units shall Fully Vest as of the End Date equal to the product obtained by multiplying (A) the Total Profits Interest Units, times (B) a percentage ranging from fifty percent (50%) to one hundred percent (100%), determined on a straight line pro rata interpolation based on the actual increase over Baseline Price represented by the TSR Value within the specified increase range, it being understood that TSR Value representing an increase over the Baseline Price of more than forty-two percent (42%) shall be counted as TSR Value representing a forty-two percent (42%) increase over Baseline Price for purposes of this calculation (such that no more than one hundred percent (100%) of Total Profits Interest Units can Fully Vest). For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent TSR Value as of the End Date does not represent at least a twenty-four percent (24%) increase over the Baseline Price, no Profits Interest Units shall Fully Vest on the End Date pursuant to this Section 2.1.

                2.2    Any accelerated vesting provisions contained in Section 15(a)(iv) of the Plan and in that certain Change in Control Agreement dated [            ] between the Company and the Participant are hereby expressly superseded for purposes of this Agreement and the Profits Interest Units granted hereby, and the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that such accelerated vesting provisions shall not apply to the Profits Interest Units.

For purposes of the Plan and this Agreement, a Participant’s employee-employer relationship or consultancy relationship shall be deemed to be terminated in the event that the affiliate employing or contracting with such Participant ceases to remain an affiliate following any merger, sale of stock or other corporate transaction or event (including, without limitation, a spin-off).

Subject to the limitations set forth in the Partnership Agreement with respect to distributions (including the limitations set forth in Section 16.4(b) of the Partnership Agreement), prior to any distributions otherwise being made pursuant to Section 5.1 of the Partnership Agreement or otherwise following the applicable Vesting Date with respect to a Profits Interest Unit, the Participant shall receive a special distribution of Available Cash (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) equal to the aggregate amount of Accrued Distributions with respect to such Profits Interest Unit, with such special distribution being made as soon as it is reasonably practicable to do so after the applicable Vesting Date in compliance with such limitations.

No portion of the Award which is unvested as of the Participant’s Termination of Service shall thereafter become vested.

                3.2    Profits Interest Units Unvested as of End Date. In addition, in the event that the Participant remains in Continuous Service through the End Date, any Profits Interest Units that have not Fully Vested as of the End Date, included without limitation any Profits Interest Units that do not Fully Vest based on TSR Value as of the End Date, (and the proportionate amount of the Participant’s Capital Account balance attributable to such Profits Interest Units and any Accrued Distributions linked to such Profits Interest Units), shall thereupon automatically and without further action be cancelled and forfeited, and the Participant shall have no further right or interest in or with respect to such unvested Profits Interest Units (or such proportionate amount of the Participant’s Capital Account balance or any Accrued Distributions linked to such Profits Interest Units).

                        (b) The Award and the Profits Interest Units are subject to the terms of the Plan and the terms of the Partnership Agreement, including, without limitation, the restrictions on transfer of Partnership Units (including, without limitation, Profits Interest Units) set forth in Article 11 of the Partnership Agreement.

Any such permitted transferee must, upon the request of the Partnership, agree to be bound by the Plan, the Partnership Agreement, and this Agreement, and shall execute the same on request, and must agree to such other waivers, limitations, and restrictions as the Partnership or the Company may reasonably require. Any Transfer of the Award or Profits Interest Units which is not made in compliance with the Plan, the Partnership Agreement and this Agreement shall be null and void ab initio, and of no effect.

                4.2    Execution and Return of Documents and Certificates. At the Company’s or the Partnership’s request, the Participant hereby agrees to promptly execute, deliver and return to the Partnership any and all documents or certificates that the Company or the Partnership deems necessary or desirable to effectuate the cancellation and forfeiture of the unvested Profits Interest Units, the proportionate amount of the Participant’s Capital Account balance attributable to the Profits Interest Units, or to effectuate the transfer or surrender such unvested Profits Interest Units and Capital Account balance to the Partnership.

By reason of the Participant’s business and financial experience, the Participant has the capacity to protect his or her own interests in connection with his or her investment in the Profits Interest Units. [The Participant represents that he or she is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities Act.] The Participant agrees to furnish any additional information requested to assure compliance with applicable federal securities laws and the securities laws of any state in connection with the holding of the Profits Interest Units.

The Partnership has made no representations, warranties, or covenants whatsoever as to whether any exemption from the Securities Act, including, without limitation, any exemption for limited sales in routine brokers’ transactions pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), will be available.

The Participant is advised to consult with his or her own tax advisor with respect to such tax consequences and his or her ownership of the Profits Interest Units.

        6.    Capital Account. The Participant shall make no contribution of capital to the Partnership in connection with the Award and, as a result, the Participant’s Capital Account balance in the Partnership immediately after his or her receipt of the Profits Interest Units shall be equal to zero, unless the Participant was a Partner in the Partnership prior to such issuance, in which case the Participant’s Capital Account balance shall not be increased as a result of his or her receipt of the Profits Interest Units.

        7.    Section 83(b) Election. The Participant covenants that he or she shall make an election under Code Section 83(b) (and any comparable election in the state of the Participant’s residence) with respect to the Profits Interest Units covered by the Award, within thirty (30) calendar days following the Grant Date, and the Company hereby consents to the making of such election. In connection with such election, the Participant and the Participant’s spouse, if applicable, shall execute and deliver to the Company with this executed Agreement, a copy of the election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. The Participant represents that the Participant has consulted any tax consultant(s) that the Participant deems advisable in

6

connection with the filing of an election under Code Section 83(b) and similar state tax provisions. The Participant acknowledges that it is the Participant’s sole responsibility and not the responsibility of the Company, the Partnership or any of their Subsidiaries to timely file an election under Code Section 83(b) (and any comparable state election), even if the Participant requests that the Company, the Partnership or any of their Subsidiaries, or any representative of the Company, the Partnership or any of their Subsidiaries, make such filing on the Participant’s behalf. The Participant is encouraged to consult his or her tax advisor to determine if there is a comparable election to file in the state of his or her residence.

The Participant hereby covenants that so long as the Participant holds any Profits Interest Units, at the request of the Partnership, the Participant shall disclose to the Partnership in writing such information relating to the Participant’s ownership of the Profits Interest Units as the Partnership reasonably believes to be necessary or desirable to ascertain in order to comply with the Code or the requirements of any other appropriate taxing authority.

        9.    Taxes. The Partnership and the Participant intend that (a) the Profits Interest Units be treated as “profits interests” within the meaning of the Code, Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, and any published guidance by the Internal Revenue Service with respect thereto, including, without limitation, Internal Revenue Service Revenue Procedure 93-27, 1993-2 C.B. 343, as clarified by Internal Revenue Service Revenue Procedure 2001-43, 2001-2 C.B. 191, (b) the issuance of such interests not be a taxable event to the Partnership or the Participant as provided in such Revenue Procedures, and (c) the Partnership Agreement, the Plan and this Agreement be interpreted consistently with such intent. In furtherance of such intent, effective immediately prior to the issuance of the Profits Interest Units, the Partnership will cause the “Gross Asset Value” (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of all Partnership assets to be adjusted to equal their respective gross fair market values, and make the resulting adjustments to the “Capital Accounts” (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of the Partners, in each case as set forth in the Partnership Agreement and based upon a fair market value equal to the trading price of the Common Shares at the time of such adjustment. The Partnership may withhold from the Participant’s wages, or require the Participant to pay to the Partnership, any applicable withholding or employment taxes resulting from the issuance of the Award hereunder, from the vesting or lapse of any restrictions imposed on the Award, or from the ownership or disposition of the Profits Interest Units.

        10.    Remedies. The Participant shall be liable to the Partnership for all costs and damages, including incidental and consequential damages, resulting from a disposition of the Award or the Profits Interest Units which is in violation of the provisions of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Participant agrees that the Partnership shall be entitled to obtain specific performance of the obligations of the Participant under this Agreement and immediate injunctive relief in the event any action or proceeding is brought in equity to enforce the same. The Participant will not urge as a defense that there is an adequate remedy at law.

        11.    Governing Law and Venue. The laws of the State of Maryland shall govern the interpretation, validity, administration, enforcement and performance of the terms of this Agreement regardless of the law that might be applied under principles of conflicts of laws. The Participant agrees that the exclusive venue for any disputes arising out of or related to this Agreement shall be the state or federal courts located in Orlando, Florida.

        12.    Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in Section 5 above shall survive the later of the date of execution and delivery of this Agreement or the issuance of the Award.

7

        13.    Unit Certificate Restrictive Legends. Certificates evidencing the Award, to the extent such certificates are issued, may bear such restrictive legends as the Partnership and/or the Partnership’s counsel may deem necessary or advisable under applicable law or pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, the following legends or legends substantially similar thereto:

“The offering and sale of the securities represented hereby have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Any transfer of such securities will be invalid unless a Registration Statement under the Securities Act is in effect as to such transfer or in the opinion of counsel for the Partnership such registration is unnecessary in order for such transfer to comply with the Securities Act.”

“The securities represented hereby are subject to forfeiture and transferability and other restrictions as set forth in (i) a written agreement with the Partnership, (ii) the Parkway Properties, Inc. 2013 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan and (iii) the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of Parkway Properties, L.P., dated as February 22, 2013, in each case, as may be amended from time to time, and such securities may not be sold or otherwise transferred except pursuant to the provisions of such documents.”

        14.    Restrictions on Public Sale by Participant. To the extent such limitation is not inconsistent with applicable law, the Participant agrees not to effect any sale or distribution of the Profits Interest Units or any similar security of the Company, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, including a sale pursuant to Rule 144, during the 14 days prior to, and during the 90-day period beginning on, the effective date of a registration statement filed by the Partnership or the Company (except as part of such registration), if and to the extent requested in writing by the Partnership or the Company in the case of a non-underwritten public offering or if and to the extent requested in writing by the managing underwriter or underwriters and consented to by the Partnership or the Company, which consent may be given or withheld in the Partnership’s or the Company’s sole and absolute discretion, in the case of an underwritten public offering (such agreement to be in the form of lock-up agreement provided by the managing underwriter or underwriters).

        15.    Conformity to Securities Laws. The Participant acknowledges that the Plan and this Agreement are intended to conform to the extent necessary with all provisions of all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations (including, but not limited to the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and any and all regulations and rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, including without limitation the applicable exemptive conditions of Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act) and to such approvals by any listing, regulatory or other governmental authority as may, in the opinion of counsel for the Partnership or the Company, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Plan shall be administered, and the Award of Profits Interest Units is made, only in such a manner as to conform to such laws, rules and regulations. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan, this Agreement and the Award shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such laws, rules and regulations.

8

        16.    Code Section 409A. Neither the Award nor the Profits Interest Units are intended to constitute or provide for “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”). However, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement, if at any time the Committee determines that the Award or the Profits Interest Units may be subject to Section 409A, the Committee shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to adopt such amendments to the Plan or this Agreement or take such other actions (including amendments and actions with retroactive effect) as the Committee determines are necessary or appropriate either for the Award and the Profits Interest Units to be exempt from the application of Section 409A or to comply with the requirements of Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Company, the Partnership or any of their Subsidiaries shall have any obligation to adopt any such amendment or take any such other action, and nothing contained in this Section 16 shall create any such obligation.

        17.    Not a Contract of Service Relationship. Nothing in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue to serve as an Employee, Director, Consultant or other service provider of the Partnership, Company or any of their affiliates or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Partnership, the Company and their affiliates, which rights are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or terminate the services of the Participant at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause, except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in a written agreement between the Partnership, the Company or an affiliate and the Participant.

        18.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, any of which may be executed and transmitted (without limitation) by facsimile or e-mail, and each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument.

        19.    Successors and Assigns. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the executors, administrators, heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto, including, without limitation, any business entity that succeeds to the business of the Partnership. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 4 above, this Agreement shall be binding upon the Participant and his or her heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.

        20.    Entire Agreement; Amendments and Waivers. The Plan, the Partnership Agreement and this Agreement (including all Exhibits thereto, if any) constitute the entire agreement of the parties and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Partnership, the Company and its affiliates and the Participant with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be amended except in an instrument in writing signed by the Participant and a duly authorized representative of the Company. No amendment, supplement, modification or waiver of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the party to be bound thereby. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (whether or not similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly provided.

        21.    Invalidity. If any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to exceed the limitations permitted by applicable law, then the provisions will be deemed reformed to the maximum limitations permitted by applicable law and the parties hereby expressly acknowledge their desire that in such event such action be taken. If for any reason one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other instrument referred to herein, shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, then to the

9

maximum extent permitted by law, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or any other such instrument.
