1 Actual vesting subject to provisions found in Sections 5, 7 and 9 of this Agreement

A Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) Award (the “Award”) granted by Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), to the employee named above (the “Grantee”), relating to the common stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company, shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and the provisions of the Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. Second Amended and Restated 2014 Stock Plan (“Plan”), a copy of which is attached hereto and the terms of which are hereby incorporated by reference:

1. Acceptance by Grantee

The receipt of the Award is conditioned upon its acceptance by the Grantee no later than 30 days from the date the Agreement was delivered, provided however, if the Grantee shall fail to accept this Award by the due date, the Grantee’s Award shall be deemed accepted by the Grantee unless the Grantee has notified the Company in writing prior to the due date that he or she declines to accept the Award.

2. Grant of RSUs

The Company hereby grants to the Grantee the Award of RSUs, as set forth above. An RSU is the right, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, to receive a distribution of a share of Common Stock for each RSU as described in Section 6 of this Agreement. The Award shall vest in accordance with Sections 5 and 9 of this Agreement.

3. RSU Account

The Company shall maintain an account (“RSU Account”) on its books in the name of the Grantee which shall reflect the number of RSUs awarded to the Grantee and any dividend equivalents paid to the Grantee as described in Section 4.

4. Dividend Equivalents

Upon the payment of any dividends on Common Stock occurring during the period preceding the date the RSUs are settled in Common Stock and distributed to the Grantee as described in Section 6, the Company shall credit the Grantee’s RSU Account with an amount equal in value to the dividends that the Grantee would have received had the Grantee been the actual owner of the number of shares of Common Stock represented by the RSUs in the Grantee’s RSU Account on that date. Such amounts shall be paid to the

1

Grantee in cash at the time and to the extent the RSUs are distributed to the Grantee. Any dividend equivalents relating to RSUs that are forfeited shall also be forfeited.

5. Vesting

(a) Except as described in (b), (c) and (d) below, the Grantee shall become vested in the Award as set forth below if the Grantee remains in continuous employment with the Company or its affiliates until the applicable dates described below (the applicable dates on which vesting occurs shall each be a “Vesting Date”).

(i) If the performance goal set forth on Exhibit A is met on any date on or prior to March 31, 2024, then with respect to 25% of the Award, (A) 50% of such portion shall vest on the date the performance goal is met and (B) 50% of such portion shall vest on March 31, 2026.

(ii) If the performance goal set forth on Exhibit A is met on any date on or prior to March 31, 2025, then with respect to 25% of the Award, (A) 50% of such portion shall vest on the date the performance goal is met and (B) 50% of such portion shall vest on March 31, 2026.

(iii) If the performance goal set forth on Exhibit A is met on any date on or prior to March 31, 2026, then with respect to 25% of the Award, (A) 50% of such portion shall vest on the date the performance goal is met and (B) 50% of such portion shall vest on March 31, 2026.

(v) If the performance goal for any portion of the Award described in (i) or (ii) above is not met by the specified date, and the performance goal for any other portion of the Award is subsequently met, then the prior unmet performance goal shall be deemed met, in which case (A) 50% of the portion of the Award that relates to the deemed met performance goal shall vest on the date the subsequent performance goal is met and (B) 50% of such portion of the Award shall vest on March 31, 2026. No portion of an Award shall vest on or after the Final Vesting Date.

(b) If prior to March 31, 2026, the Grantee’s employment with the Company and its affiliates terminates prior to a Vesting Date due to death, disability or retirement, then the portion of the Award for which the performance goal has been met but does not vest until March 31, 2026 shall become vested on the date of such termination of employment, and the remainder of the Award shall be forfeited. For this purpose (i) “disability” means (as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion) the inability of the Grantee to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which is expected to result in death or disability or which has lasted or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months and (ii) “retirement” means termination of the Grantee’s employment for any reason other than cause (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion) on or after the Grantee’s attainment age of 65.

(c) If on or after March 31, 2025 and prior to March 31, 2026 the employment of a Grantee who is a party to an Executive Severance and Restrictive Covenant Agreement in the form filed as Exhibit 10.20 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020 (an “Executive

The provisions of this Section 5(c) shall replace and supersede the provisions of Section 7(d) of the Executive Agreement with respect to this Award.

(d) The unvested portion of the Award shall be forfeited to the Company upon the Grantee’s termination of employment with the Company and its affiliates for any reason other than the Grantee’s death, disability or retirement, or a Change in Control of the Company as described in Section 9 that occurs prior to the Final Vesting Date.
