WHEREAS, the Grantee complies with the requirements of eligibility for the award of Restricted Stock Units under the Arcosa, Inc. 2018 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”); and

WHEREAS, the Company has determined to award to the Grantee %%TOTAL_SHARES_GRANTED,’999,999,999’%-% Restricted Stock Units (the “Units”), subject to the terms of the Plan and conditions hereinafter set forth, as a retention incentive, to encourage a sense of proprietorship by the Grantee and to stimulate the active interest of the Grantee in promoting the development, growth, performance and financial success of the Company by affording the Grantee an opportunity to obtain an increased proprietary interest in the Company so as to assure a closer identification between the Grantee’s interest and the interest of the Company;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants and agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.    Grant of Restricted Stock Units.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, this Agreement and the restrictions set forth below, the Company hereby grants to the Grantee the total number of Units set forth above and hereby credits such Units to a separate account maintained on the books of the Company. Each Unit shall be subject to conversion into one Share, as herein provided.

2.    Stockholder Status.

The Grantee will have no rights as a stockholder (including, without limitation, the right to vote and to receive dividends) with respect to the Units covered by this Agreement until the issuance of Shares to the Grantee (in certificated or book-entry form) upon the conversion of the Units into Shares. The Grantee, by his or her execution of this Agreement, agrees to execute any documents requested by the Company in connection with the conversion of the Units. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 4 and 9 hereof, no adjustment shall be made for dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to the issuance of such Shares.

3.    Vesting; Forfeiture.

Subject to the special vesting and forfeiture rules in this Agreement (including, without limitation the remedies set forth in Section 11(f) below), the Units will become vested in accordance with the schedule set forth below, if, as of the date(s) specified in the schedule, the Grantee is employed by the Company on such date (the total time period of vesting referred to herein as “Vesting Period”):

In addition, the Units will become 100% vested on the earliest to occur of the following events, if the Grantee is employed by the Company on the date of such event:

(ii)    termination of the Grantee’s employment for Disability (as defined in the Plan); or

(iii)    the consent of the Human Resources Committee (the “Committee”), in its sole discretion, to vest the remaining unvested Units, at any time after three years from the Date of Grant.

Further, on the date of the Grantee’s termination of employment for Retirement, a portion of the then unvested Units will become vested, on a pro-rated basis, based on the following calculation (x) total number of days the Grantee was employed by the Company during the Vesting Period divided by the total number of days in the Vesting Period, (y) multiplied by the aggregate number of RSUs initially subject to this Agreement, (z) less the number of RSUs then vested. For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” means the Grantee’s voluntary termination of employment (other than by the Company or due to death or Disability), provided that at the time of the Grantee’s termination of employment (i) the Grantee is at least age 55 and (ii) the sum of the Grantee’s age and full years of continuous employment with the Company (and its Subsidiaries, Affiliates and any predecessor to the Company, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) equal at least 65.

The date on which any Units become vested in accordance with this Section 3 is the “Vesting Date” for such Units, and such vested Units are referred to herein as, the “Vested Units.”

Subject to Section 18 of the Plan, and except as expressly provided otherwise herein, upon a Change in Control, if the Company or buyer or successor entity to the Company in the Change in Control (i) continues or assumes this Agreement (or converts or replaces this Agreement with a new award containing substantially the same terms as this Agreement, other than terms rendered inoperative by reason of the Change in Control (a “Substitute Award”)), the Units shall continue to vest in accordance with the terms of this Section 3, provided, however, if the Company, or such buyer or successor, terminates the Grantee’s employment without Cause (as defined below) within 12 months of the Change in Control (a “Qualifying Termination”), the Units shall become 100% vested on the date of such Qualifying Termination; or (ii) does not continue or assume this Agreement (or convert or replace this Agreement with a Substitute Award), the unvested Units shall be become 100% vested on the date of the Change in Control. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” means (1) the continued failure of the Grantee to satisfactorily perform the Grantee’s duties with the Company or a failure of the Grantee to comply with the Company’s code of conduct or written policies or procedures, or willful failure of the Grantee to follow directions of the Board or the Grantee’s supervisor or manager, or any other willful act that likely will result in a materially negative effect to the Company, which, if curable, is not cured within thirty (30) days after notice thereof to the Grantee by the Company; (2) fraud, theft, misappropriation embezzlement, dishonesty or breach of fiduciary duty by the Grantee; (3) misappropriation of any corporate opportunity or otherwise obtaining personal profit from any transaction which is adverse to the

interests of the Company or to the benefits of which the Company is entitled; (4) the conviction of a crime that has caused or may be reasonably expected to cause material injury to the Company or any of its Affiliates, or the conviction of a felony; or (5) the willful misconduct by the Grantee which is injurious to the Company (monetarily or otherwise), which if curable, is not cured by the Grantee within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Grantee of a written notice from the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Grantee is a participant in the Arcosa, Inc. Change in Control Severance Plan, as may be amended from time to time (or any successor plan thereto) (the “CIC Plan”) and if the CIC Plan is in effect on the date of the Change in Control, the terms of this paragraph shall not apply, and instead, treatment of the Units on a Change in Control shall be determined in accordance with the CIC Plan.

All of the unvested Units shall be forfeited by the Grantee to the Company if, prior to vesting in accordance with this Section 3, the Grantee violates any of the provisions of Section 11 below or the Grantee’s employment with the Company terminates for any reason. Upon forfeiture, all of the Grantee’s rights with respect to the forfeited Units shall cease and terminate, without any further obligations on the part of the Company.

4.    Dividend Equivalents.

The Company also grants to the Grantee a Dividend Equivalent Right with respect to the Units, whereby if on any date the Company shall pay any dividend or other distribution on Shares (other than a dividend in Shares), then with respect to each Unit, an amount equal to the amount of the dividend or distribution per Share shall be credited to the account of the Grantee maintained on the books of the Company (the “Dividend Equivalents”), and, subject to Section 11, shall be paid to the Grantee (in cash or Shares, in the discretion of the Committee) at the time the Vested Units related to such dividend or other distribution are converted in accordance with Section 5 below. If the underlying Units are forfeited, the Grantee shall have no right to the Dividend Equivalents related to such forfeited Units and shall forfeit such Dividend Equivalents as well.

5.    Form and Timing of Payment.

Subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth and except as otherwise provided by this Section 5, upon the vesting of the Units, or as soon as practicable following vesting, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the Vesting Date of such Units, the Company shall convert the Vested Units into the number of whole Shares equal to the number of Vested Units, and shall deliver such Shares to the Grantee or the Grantee’s personal representative.

Upon the expiration of the applicable deferral period, any Shares which would have otherwise been made during that period (whether in a single sum or in installments) in the absence of this Section 5 shall be delivered to the Grantee’s or the Grantee’s beneficiary in one lump sum.

6.    No Rights of Continued Service.

Nothing herein shall confer upon the Grantee any right to remain an officer or employee of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, and nothing herein shall be construed in any manner to interfere in any way with the right of the Company or its Subsidiaries to terminate the Grantee’s service at any time.

Therefore, during the Grantee’s employment and after the Grantee’s Separation from Service for any reason, the Grantee shall not in any way disparage, libel or defame the Company, its business or business practices, its products or services, or its stockholders, managers, officers, directors, Employees, investors or Affiliates. Nothing in this Section 11(e) is intended to interfere with the Grantee’s right to engage in the conduct set forth in Section 11(a)(ii) or (iii).

(f)    Remedies. By acceptance of this Agreement, the Grantee acknowledges that the geographic scope and duration of the restrictions and covenants contained in this Section 11 are fair and reasonable in light of (i) the nature and wide geographic scope of the operations of the Company’s business; (ii) the Grantee’s level of control over and contact with the business in the Restricted Territory; and (iii) the amount of compensation and Confidential Information that the Grantee is receiving in connection with the Grantee’s employment with the Company. If the Grantee violates any of the restrictions contained in this Section 11, the Restricted Period shall be suspended and shall not run in favor of the Grantee until such time that the Grantee cures the violation to the satisfaction of the Company and the period of time in which the Grantee is in breach shall be added to the Restricted Period applicable to such covenant(s). Further, by executing this Agreement, the Grantee acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 11, in view of the nature of the Company’s businesses, are reasonable and necessary to protect their legitimate business interests, business goodwill and reputation, and that any violation of these restrictions would result in irreparable injury and continuing damage to the Company. Accordingly, by executing this Agreement, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that, in the event of the Grantee’s breach or threatened breach of the provisions in this Section 11, the Company shall be entitled to a temporary restraining order and injunctive relief restraining the Grantee from the commission of such breach or threatened breach, without the necessity of establishing irreparable harm or the posting of a bond, and to recover from the Grantee damages incurred by the Company as a result of the breach, as well as the Company’s attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses related to such breach or threatened breach.

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other remedies available to it for any breach or threatened breach, including, without limitation, the recovery of money damages, attorneys’ fees, and costs. The existence of any claim or cause of action by the Grantee against the Company, whether predicated on this Agreement, the Plan or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by the Company of the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 11, or preclude injunctive relief.
