C&J Energy Services, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, hereby awards to the Grantee (the “Grantee”) an award of restricted stock (the “Award”), consisting of the number of Shares of Common Stock of the Company set forth above (the “Restricted Shares”), pursuant to the C&J Energy Services, Inc. 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Award is subject to the terms of this Restricted Stock Agreement (the “Agreement”) and, as may be amended from time to time, the Plan. The Restricted Shares granted hereunder shall be issued in the name of the Grantee as soon as reasonably practicable after the Grant Date, pursuant to the terms herein, and shall be subject to the execution and return of this Agreement by the Grantee to the Company within 30 days of the date hereof (including by utilizing an electronic signature and/or web-based approval and notice process as may be authorized by the Company). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning attributed to such terms under the Plan, unless the context requires otherwise. By executing this Agreement, the Grantee acknowledges that his or her agreement to the covenants set forth in Section 7 is a material inducement to the Company in granting this Award to the Grantee.
The terms and conditions of the Restricted Shares granted hereby, to the extent not controlled by the terms and conditions contained in the Plan, are as follows:
1. No Right to Continued Employee Status or Consultant Service
Nothing contained in this Agreement shall confer upon the Grantee the right to the continuation of his or her Employee status, or, in the case of a Consultant, to the continuation of his or her service arrangement, or in either case to interfere with the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates to terminate the Grantee’s Business Relationship (as defined in Section 7).
2. Coordination with Employment Agreement
The parties hereby acknowledge that the Grantee is a party to an employment agreement dated [ ] between the Grantee and the Company (the “Employment Agreement”), which may include provisions governing the treatment of stock options, restricted stock or other equity-based awards granted to the Grantee prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that, to the extent that the Employment Agreement includes provisions in respect of the treatment of stock options, restricted stock or other equity-based awards in the event of termination of employment, a change of control, or other similar event, (i) notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, such provisions in the Employment Agreement shall govern the treatment of the Restricted Shares pursuant to this Agreement; and (ii) if, and to the extent, such provisions in the Employment Agreement conflict with the provisions in this Agreement, the terms of the Employment Agreement shall control. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Employment Agreement is silent regarding matters concerning the treatment of stock options, restricted stock or other equity-based awards in the event of termination of employment, a change of control, or other similar event, then the terms of this Agreement shall govern the treatment of the Restricted Shares granted hereunder.
3. Vesting; Forfeiture; Effect of Termination of Service
If the Grantee continuously maintains his or her Business Relationship from the Date of Grant, then the Restricted Shares will vest in the numbers and on the dates specified in the Vesting Schedule set forth above. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or as otherwise determined by the Committee, if the Grantee’s Business Relationship Terminates for any reason prior to the Vesting Dates set forth above, all Restricted Shares covered by the Award that are not vested as of the date of such Termination shall be returned to or cancelled by the Company, and shall be deemed to have been forfeited by the Grantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the Grantee’s Termination by reason of Disability or death prior to the Vesting Dates set forth above, the number of Restricted Shares that would have vested on the next applicable Vesting Date shall immediately vest as of the date of such Termination.
4. Restrictions on Transfer
(a) The Restricted Shares subject to this Award may not be sold, transferred, assigned or otherwise disposed of, and may not be pledged or otherwise hypothecated (the “Transfer Restrictions”) while the Restricted Shares are subject to forfeiture to the Company pursuant to Section 3. The Transfer Restrictions shall lapse on the same schedule under which the Restricted Shares vest pursuant to the Vesting Schedule.
(b) The foregoing Transfer Restrictions shall not prohibit the sale, transfer or other disposition of such Restricted Shares pursuant to a definitive agreement executed by the Company in connection with a Corporate Transaction.

5. Escrow, Delivery of Shares and Restrictive Legend
(a) Certificates or evidence of book-entry shares representing the Restricted Shares shall be issued and held by the Company in escrow and shall remain in the custody of the Company until their delivery to the Grantee or nominee as set forth herein, subject to the Grantee’s delivery of any document which the Committee or Company may, in its discretion, require as a condition to the delivery of Shares to the Grantee or his or her estate, including, but not limited to delivery of a stock power, duly endorsed in blank, relating to the Restricted Shares.
(b) Certificates or evidence of book-entry shares representing the Restricted Shares which have vested and for which the Transfer Restrictions have lapsed pursuant to Sections 3 and 4 of this Agreement will be delivered to or otherwise made available to the Grantee (or, at the discretion of the Grantee, joint in the names of the Grantee and the Grantee’s spouse) or to the Grantee’s nominee at such person’s request.
(c) The certificates representing the Restricted Shares acquired pursuant to this Award shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan or under applicable state and Federal securities or other laws, or under any ruling or regulation of any governmental body or national securities exchange unless an exemption to such registration or qualification is available and satisfied. The Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.
6. Rights as Stockholder
Upon the issuance and delivery of the Restricted Shares to the Grantee and the entry of the Grantee’s name as a stockholder of record on the books of the Company, the Grantee shall be, unless and until such Restricted Shares are forfeited pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement or sold or otherwise disposed of pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement, entitled to all rights of a common stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to vote such Restricted Shares and the right to receive all dividends or other distributions paid or made with respect thereto; provided, however, that any cash dividends or distributions declared or paid on the Restricted Shares by the Company shall be deferred and paid to the Grantee at the same time as the Restricted Shares in respect of which such dividends or distributed were made vest pursuant to this Agreement; provided, further, that any Shares distributed as a dividend or otherwise with respect of any Restricted Shares shall be subject to the same Vesting Schedule and be subject to the same Transfer Restrictions, and evidenced in the same manner, as such Restricted Shares.

Such property includes but is not limited to any Confidential Information and any of the Company’s, Subsidiary’s or Affiliate’s tools of trade. |
| (c) | Right to Cancellation and Recovery. The Grantee understands and agrees that the Company has granted this Award to the Grantee to reward the Grantee for the Grantee’s future efforts and loyalty to the Company, its Subsidiaries and other Affiliates by giving the Grantee the opportunity to participate in the potential future appreciation of the Company. Accordingly, if (t) the Grantee engages in any Prohibited Disclosure or Use or breaches or |

| (i) | The Company may terminate this Award and immediately cancel the Restricted Shares for which the Transfer Restrictions have not yet lapsed; and |
| (ii) | If such Prohibited Action occurs during the period of the Grantee’s Business Relationship or within two (2) years following the Grantee’s Termination, the Company may recover from the Grantee, and the Grantee shall pay over to the Company, with respect to any Restricted Shares on which the Transfer Restrictions lapsed during the period of two (2) years prior to the earlier of the occurrence of the Prohibited Action or the Grantee’s Termination (A) with respect to any such Shares that the Grantee continues to own as of the Forfeiture Notice Date, an amount equal to the aggregate Fair Market Value of such Shares on the Forfeiture Notice Date; and (B) with respect to any such Shares that the Grantee no longer owns as of the Forfeiture Notice Date, an amount equal to either (x) if such Shares were disposed of in an open market transaction, the proceeds received from the disposition of the Restricted Shares, or (y) if such Shares were disposed of other than in an open market transaction, the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Restricted Shares as of the Forfeiture Notice Date.

| (d) | Other Remedies. The Grantee specifically acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at law for any breach of this Section 7 will be inadequate and that the Company, in addition to any other relief available to it, shall be entitled at the discretion of the Board to seek temporary and permanent injunctive relief without the necessity of proving actual damage or posting any bond whatsoever. In the event that the provisions of this Section 7 should ever be deemed to exceed the limitation provided by applicable law, then the Grantee and the Company agree that such provisions shall be reformed to set forth the maximum limitations permitted. |

8. Taxation
The Grantee understands that, unless a timely election is made pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), when the Restricted Shares are no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture (i.e., generally when the Restricted Shares vest), the Grantee will be obligated to recognize income, for Federal, state and local income tax purposes, as applicable, in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Shares, determined as of the date the Restricted Shares are no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. The acceptance of the Shares by the Grantee shall constitute an agreement by the Grantee to report such income in accordance with then applicable law and to cooperate with Company and its subsidiaries in establishing the amount of such income and corresponding deduction to the Company and/or its subsidiaries for its income tax purposes.
The Grantee is responsible for all tax obligations that arise in connection with the Restricted Shares. The Company may withhold from any amount payable to the Grantee an amount sufficient to cover any Federal, state or local withholding taxes which may become required with respect to the vesting of the Restricted Shares or take any other action it deems necessary to satisfy any income or other tax withholding requirements as a result of the vesting of the Award. The Company shall have the right to require the payment of any such taxes and require that the Grantee furnish information deemed necessary by the Company to meet any tax reporting obligation as a condition to issuing and releasing any Shares pursuant to the Award. The Committee, in its discretion, may allow the Grantee, to pay his

or her withholding tax obligation in connection with the vesting of the Restricted Shares, by (x) making a cash payment to the Company, (y) having withheld a portion of the Shares that have become vested, or (z) surrendering Shares owned by the Participant prior to vesting of the Award, in each case having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the withholding taxes.
The Grantee hereby acknowledges that, with respect to the grant of Restricted Shares pursuant to this Award, he or she may file an election with the Internal Revenue Service, within 30 days of the Date of Grant, under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed on the fair market value of the Restricted Shares as of the Date of Grant. The Grantee will seek the advice of his own tax advisors as to the advisability of making such a Section 83(b) election, the potential consequences of making such an election, the requirements for making such an election, and the other tax consequences of his Award under Federal, state, and any other laws that may be applicable. The Company and its agents have not and are not providing any tax advice to the Grantee.
9. Securities Laws
Upon the acquisition of the Restricted Shares, the Grantee will make such written representations, warranties, and agreements as the Committee may reasonably request in order to comply with securities laws or with this Agreement. The obligation of the Company to issue and deliver the Restricted Shares granted hereunder shall be subject to all applicable laws, rule and regulations, and such approvals by governmental agencies as may be required. The Grantee hereby agrees not to offer, sell or otherwise attempt to dispose of any Shares issued to the Grantee pursuant to this Agreement in any way which would: (x) require the Company to file any registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (or any similar filing under state law or the laws of any other county) or to amend or supplement any such filing or (y) violate or cause the Company to violate the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or any other Federal, state or local law, or the laws of any other country.
