Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of
Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory
Arrangements with Certain Officers.

The Board of Directors (the Board) of Education Realty Trust,
Inc. (the Company) previously approved, subject to stockholder
approval, the Companys 2017 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the
Plan). At the Companys 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held
on May 10, 2017 (the Annual Meeting), the Companys stockholders
approved the Plan, which replaces the Education Realty Trust,
Inc. 2011 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the 2011 Plan). The Plan
authorizes the grant of the 346,111 shares the remain available
under the 2011 Plan, as well as 1,000,000 additional shares, and
sets an annual limit on non-employee director compensation. Based
upon the Companys historical and anticipated practices, the
adoption of the Plan provides the Company with four to five years
of available equity awards.

The foregoing brief description is qualified in its entirety by
the text of the Plan, a copy of which is incorporated herein by
reference as Exhibit 10.1 hereto.

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

At the Annual Meeting, the Companys stockholders approved each of
the proposals presented, which are described in more detail in
the Companys Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, as
amended, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
March 31, 2017. Holders of 65,811,333 shares of the Companys
common stock were present in person or represented by proxy at
the Annual Meeting.

The following are the voting results on each proposal presented
to the Companys stockholders at the Annual Meeting:

Proposal 1: To elect eight directors to serve until the 2018
Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their successors have
