Grantee: KENNETH V. HUSEMAN

1.  Grant of StockBasic Energy Services, Inc. (formerly BES Holding Co.), a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby grants to the Grantee (identified above), an employee of the Company, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), identified in Section 12 below (the “Shares”), subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement (the “Retiree Agreement”), the  Fifth Amended and Restated Basic Energy Services, Inc. 2003 Incentive Plan (as amended, the “Plan”) and the Grantee Non-Competition Agreement for Retirees (the “Non-Compete Agreement”), a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A.  This Retiree Agreement is made as contemplated by and in accordance with the prior restricted stock grant agreement(s) between the Company and Grantee.  The issuance by the Company of the Shares shall be deemed to occur effective on the Grant Date (identified in Section 12 below), and will equal the number of all other unvested shares of restricted stock that are held by the Grantee and forfeited on the date of retirement of the Grantee.  The Plan and the Non-Compete Agreement are hereby incorporated into this Retiree Agreement in its entirety by reference.  Upon the expiration of the applicable vesting periods identified in Section 12 below, the Shares delivered to Grantee shall be fully paid and nonassessable.

3.  Vesting TermSubject to earlier forfeiture in accordance with the terms of the Non-Compete Agreement in the event of Grantee’s breach of the Non-Compete Agreement, the Shares granted to Grantee hereunder on the Grant Date will vest in the Grantee in the respective amounts and on the respective dates set forth in Section 12 below, or, if earlier, on the death of Grantee.

4.  Consideration.  Grantee hereby agrees that Grantee’s execution of the Non-Compete Agreement and Grantee’s compliance with the terms and provisions contained therein are the sole consideration for the issuance by the Company of the Shares pursuant to this Retiree Agreement.

(b)  In the event of a breach by the Grantee of any covenant or agreement contained in the Non-Compete Agreement, all Shares that are unvested on the date of such breach will be automatically and immediately forfeited by the Grantee.

(c)  At such time as the vesting period is satisfied, a certificate for the Shares no longer subject to forfeiture will be delivered to the Grantee without the legend set forth in Section 5(e) below. 

(d)  From and after the date of this Grant and prior to any forfeiture of the Shares, the Grantee shall be entitled to vote the Shares and shall be entitled to receive any cash dividends payable on the Shares.  Any stock dividends applicable to the Shares shall be retained by the Company until the vesting period of the Shares on which the stock dividend was issued is satisfied.

(e)  Any book entry of shares or certificate representing the Shares granted hereunder shall be issued to the Grantee pursuant to the terms of the Plan as of the Grant Date and shall be marked with the following legend:

The shares represented by this certificate have been issued pursuant to the terms of the Fifth Amended and Restated Basic Energy Services, Inc. 2003 Incentive Plan, as amended, and may not be sold, pledged, transferred, assigned or otherwise encumbered in any manner except as set forth in the terms of such Plan or Award Agreement dated effective September 30, 2013”

8.  Investment RepresentationGrantee will enter into such written representations, warranties and agreements as Company may reasonably request in order to comply with any federal or state securities law.  Moreover, any stock certificate for any Shares issued to Grantee hereunder may contain a legend restricting their transferability as set forth in Section 5 above prior to vesting, or to the extent required under the Plan or applicable law, as determined by the Company in its discretion.  Grantee agrees that Company shall not be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the issuance or transfer of Shares hereunder to comply with any law, rule or regulation that applies to the Shares subject to this Retiree Agreement.

Any purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or other encumbrance of the Shares, prior to the lapse of restrictions, that does not satisfy the requirements hereunder shall be void and unenforceable against the Company.

(c)  Amendment and Termination.  No amendment, modification or termination of this Retiree Agreement shall be made at any time without the written consent of Grantee and the Company.

(d)  No Guarantee of Tax Consequences.  The Company and the Committee make no commitment or guarantee that any federal or state tax treatment will apply or be available to any person eligible for benefits under this Retiree Agreement.  The Grantee has been advised and been provided the opportunity to obtain independent legal and tax advice regarding the award of Shares pursuant to this Retiree Agreement and the disposition of any Common Stock acquired thereby.
