Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) Represents a grant of performance based awards pursuant to the Education Realty Trust, Inc. ("EDR") 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), which will vest upon continued employment at the end of a three year period from the grant date provided that certain performance criteria are met over that three year period. The reporting person has elected to receive his 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.
(2) Upon the occurrence of certain capital account equalization events, the POIs will become ordinary units of the Operating Partnership and be exchangeable for shares of EDR's common stock on a one-for-one basis.
(3) The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of EDR approved the total dollar value of a grant of performance based awards on February 4, 2015, at a fair value per unit to be determined. EDR engaged an independent third party valuation consultant to establish the fair value on the date of grant. On April 30, 2015, the valuation report was finalized and the grant of POIs was determined.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.
