CAVCO INDUSTRIES, INC. 2023 OMNIBUS EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT
This Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (the “Agreement”, “RSU Agreement” or “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of _______ (the “Grant Date”) by and between Cavco Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and _______ (the “Grantee”), an employee of the Company, pursuant to the Cavco Industries, Inc. 2023 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Except as defined herein, capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Plan.
1.Grant of Restricted Stock Units; Failure to Timely Accept Award.
On the Grant Date and subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Plan, the Company grants to the Grantee an Award of _______ Restricted Stock Units (“Restricted Stock Units” or “RSUs”). Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision set forth herein, this Agreement will automatically terminate and be void and this Award shall automatically be rescinded and withdrawn and be of no force or effect if the Grantee fails to sign this Agreement (or fails to electronically sign and/or acknowledge) and return it to the Company on or before the 30th day after the Grant Date.
2.Relationship to Plan; Administration; Compliance with Law.
This Award is subject to all of the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan and the administrative interpretations thereunder, if any, which have been adopted by the Committee from time to time. The Plan and this Award shall in all respects be administered by the Committee (or its designee) in accordance with the terms of and as provided in the Plan. The Committee (or its designee) shall have the sole and complete discretion with respect to all matters reserved to it by the Plan and decisions of the Committee (or its designee) with respect thereto and to this Agreement shall be final and binding upon the Grantee and the Company. In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control.
Consistent with the Plan, the issuance and settlement of Common Stock in connection with the Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to compliance by the Company and the Grantee with all applicable requirements of federal and state securities laws and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange on which the Company’s shares of Common Stock may be listed. No shares of Common Stock shall be issued or settled unless and until any then applicable requirements of state and federal laws and regulatory agencies have been fully complied with to the satisfaction of the Company and its counsel.



3.Vesting; Forfeiture.
Subject to the other conditions in this Agreement and the Plan and the Grantee’s continued service, the Restricted Stock Units shall fully vest and the restrictions on the Restricted Stock Units will lapse as follows (with each such date on which Restricted Stock Units vest deemed a “Vesting Date”): (a) 33% on the 12 month anniversary of the Grant Date; (b) 33% on the 24 month anniversary of the Grant Date; and (c) 34% on the 36 month anniversary of the Grant Date. If the Grantee’s service terminates for any reason before all of his or her Restricted Stock Units have vested, the Grantee’s unvested Restricted Stock Units shall be automatically forfeited upon such termination of service and the Company shall not have any further obligations to the Grantee under this Agreement.
To the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code, the term “termination of employment,” “terminates employment” and/or any similar term means Separation from Service.
4.Payment.
Within 10 days of the applicable Vesting Date, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Grantee shares of Common Stock (including, without limitation, through a book entry credit or electronic delivery of certificates) in respect of the Restricted Stock Units that have vested.
5.Delivery of Shares.
The Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock if counsel to the Company determines that such sale or delivery would violate any applicable law or any rule or regulations of any governmental authority or any rule or regulation of, or agreement of the Company with, any securities exchange or association upon which the Common Stock is listed or quoted. The Company shall in no event be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the delivery of shares of Common Stock to comply with any such law, rule, regulations or agreement.
6.Notices.
Notice or other communication to the Company with respect to this Award must be made in the following manner, using such forms as the Company may from time to time provide: (a) by electronic means as designated by the Committee; (b) by registered or certified United States mail, postage prepaid, to Cavco Industries, Inc., Attention: Secretary, 3636 N. Central Ave., Suite 1200, Phoenix, Arizona 85012; or (c) by hand delivery or otherwise to Cavco Industries, Inc., Attention: Secretary, 3636 N. Central Ave., Suite 1200, Phoenix, Arizona 85012. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the address of the Company is changed, any such notice shall instead be made pursuant to the foregoing provisions at the Company’s current address.

After the death of the Grantee, payment of the Award shall be permitted only to the Grantee’s designated beneficiary or, in the absence of a designated beneficiary and as required by applicable law, the Grantee’s spouse or executor or the personal representative of the Grantee’s estate (or by his assignee, in the event of a permitted assignment) and only to the extent that the Award was payable on the date of the Grantee’s death.

This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Grantee, the Company and their respective permitted successors and assigns (including personal representatives, heirs and legatees), except that the Grantee may not assign any rights or obligations under this Agreement except to the extent and in the manner expressly permitted herein.
11.Tax Advice; Withholding.
The Grantee acknowledges that neither the Company nor any of its representatives has provided to the Grantee any tax-related advice with respect to the matters covered by this Agreement. Pursuant to the Plan, the Company shall have the right to deduct or withhold from any payments or issuance of Common Stock made by Company to the Grantee, or to require that Grantee remit to Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state or local taxes of any kind as are required by law to be withheld with respect to this Agreement and the settlement or vesting of the Restricted Stock Units.
12.No Service Guaranteed.
This Agreement shall not be construed to confer upon the Grantee any right to continue service with the Company and shall not limit the right of the Company, in its sole and absolute discretion, to terminate the Grantee’s service at any time for any reason.



13.Governing Law.
The Plan and this Agreement and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto, to the extent not otherwise governed by mandatory provisions of the Act or other securities laws of the United States, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to any conflicts of law principles thereof that would require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. The Company and the Grantee hereby submit to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of Arizona with respect to matters relating to the Plan and this Agreement and agree not to raise or assert the defense that such forum is not convenient for such party.
14.Entire Agreement; Amendment; Severability.
This Agreement (including all exhibits attached hereto, which are incorporated herein and made a part hereof for all purposes), together with the Plan and all administrative interpretations thereunder shall constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement cannot be modified, altered, or amended except by an agreement, in writing, signed by both the Company and the Grantee. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application of any such provision to any person or circumstance, is held to be unenforceable or invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction or under any applicable law, the parties hereto shall negotiate an equitable adjustment to the provisions of this Agreement with the view to effecting, to the greatest extent possible, the original purpose and intent of this Agreement, and in any event, the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.
15.Transfer of Personal Data.

This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code or an exemption thereunder and shall be construed and interpreted in a manner that is consistent with the requirements for avoiding additional taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representations that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Code and in no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by the Grantee on account of non-compliance with Section 409A of the Code. If the Company concludes that this Agreement is subject to the requirements of Section 409A, neither the time nor the schedule of the payment of the Restricted Stock Units may be accelerated or subject to a further deferral except as permitted pursuant to Section 409A of the Code and the applicable regulations.
