STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR
PERFORMANCE-BASED RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
1. | GENERAL |
Continental Building Products, Inc. (the “Company”), has granted to the Participant named in the Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) an award of a maximum number of performance-based restricted stock units (the “Award” or the “PRSUs”) under the Continental Building Products, Inc. 2014 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Award is subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Grant Notice, these Standard Terms and Conditions, and the terms and conditions of the Plan, which are hereby incorporated into these Standard Terms and Conditions by this reference, each as amended from time to time. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in the Grant Notice and these Standard Terms and Conditions will have the meaning set forth in the Plan. The Award is intended to be a Performance Incentive Award under Section 11 of the Plan.
2. | EARNING OF PRSUs |
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and these Standard Terms and Conditions, the Participant will be entitled to receive, for each PRSU earned in accordance with this Section 2 and Appendix A to these Standard Terms and Conditions (“Appendix A”), one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Common Stock”). The Participant will earn the number of PRSUs set forth in the Grant Notice for achievement at the maximum performance goal as specified in Appendix A, and subject to adjustment for achievement below the maximum performance goal in accordance with Appendix A. If the threshold performance level set forth in Appendix A is not achieved, none of the PRSUs granted to the Participant will be earned. The Committee shall certify the level of achievement of the performance goal as soon as practicable following the end of the Performance Period and at such time shall determine the number of PRSUs the Participant is eligible to receive, subject to Section 3 and Section 4 below.
3. | VESTING AND SETTLEMENT OF PRSUs |
(a) | The PRSUs will be subject to a one-year continuous employment period following the end of the Performance Period and will become vested on the Vesting Date. Subject to these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan, shares of Common Stock equal to the number of PRSUs the Participant has earned will be issued and delivered to the Participant as described in Section 3(b) below if the Participant has been continuously employed by the Company and its Subsidiaries through the Vesting Date. Other than as explicitly provided in Section 4 below, there will be no proportionate or partial vesting and/or vesting in the periods prior to the Vesting Date, and all vesting will occur only on the Vesting Date. |
(b) | Except as explicitly provided in Section 4 below with respect to proportionate or partial vesting and/or vesting in the periods prior to the Vesting Date, on or within 30 days following the Vesting Date, the Company shall issue and deliver to the Participant the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of vested PRSUs the Participant earns. |
4. | VESTING AND SETTLEMENT OF PRSUs ON TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT |
(a) | Termination of Employment Prior to a Change in Control: After Performance Period and Committee Certification. |
(i) | In the event of the Participant’s Termination of Employment prior to a Change in Control by the Company without Cause or due to the Participant’s death, disability (within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(C)(i) or (ii)) or retirement after age 65 and the Termination of Employment occurs after the end of the Performance Period and the Committee’s certification of the achievement of the performance goal, the Participant will vest in and become entitled to receive a pro rata portion of the PRSUs that the Participant would have been entitled to receive had the Participant been employed by the Company through the Vesting Date, based on the actual level of achievement of the performance goal set forth in Appendix A as certified by the Committee at the end of the Performance Period. The pro rata portion will be determined by multiplying the number of PRSUs the Participant would have been entitled to receive if the Participant had not incurred the Termination of Employment by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days the Participant was employed during the period beginning on the first day of the Performance Period and the denominator of which is the total number of days beginning on the first day of Performance Period and ending on the Vesting Date. |

(B) | with respect to a Retirement-Eligible Participant, on or within 30 days following the Vesting Date. |

The pro rata portion will be determined by multiplying the number of PRSUs the Participant would have been entitled to receive if the Participant had not incurred the Termination of Employment by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days the Participant was employed during the period beginning on the first day of the Performance Period and the denominator of which is the total number of days beginning on the first day of Performance Period and ending on the Vesting Date. |
(ii) | The Company shall issue and deliver to the Participant the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of PRSUs the Participant is entitled to as determined in accordance with Section 4(b)(i) above: |
