Executive is an executive officer of the Company. The Company and Executive desire to set forth their agreement pursuant to which Executive will receive certain benefits upon severance from the Company under certain circumstances.

Agreement

Now, therefore, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Term. The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall begin on             , and shall end on             , unless this Agreement is extended by mutual agreement of the parties.

2. Termination of Employment.

(a) Termination by the Company for Cause or at the Election of Executive Without Good Reason. In the event Executive’s employment is terminated for Cause, as defined in Section 3(a), or at the election of Executive for any reason other than Good Reason, as defined in Section 3(b), the Company shall pay to Executive the compensation and benefits otherwise due and payable to him in a lump sum payment in cash, payable within 10 days after termination of employment, equal to the sum of (1) Executive’s then annual base salary (“Base Salary”) and any accrued vacation pay through the date of termination of employment, and (2) Executive’s annual bonus earned for the fiscal year immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the date of termination of employment occurs if such bonus has not been paid as of the date of termination of employment.

(b) Termination for Death or Disability. If Executive’s employment is terminated by death or because of Disability, as defined in Section 3(c), the Company shall pay to the estate of Executive or to Executive, as the case may be, a lump sum payment in cash, payable within 10 days after termination of employment, equal to the sum of (1) Executive’s accrued Base Salary and any accrued vacation pay through the date of termination of employment, and (2) Executive’s annual bonus earned for the fiscal year immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the date of termination of employment occurs if such bonus has not been paid as of the date of termination of employment.

(c) Termination by the Company Without Cause or By Executive for Good Reason. If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause, or is terminated by Executive for Good Reason, at any time during the Term (including extensions thereof), except during the Change in Control Protection Period (as defined in Executive’s Change In Control Severance Agreement) (“Change in Control Severance Agreement”), Executive will be entitled to the following payments and benefits outlined in this Section 2(c):

(1) Payment of Accrued Obligations. The Company shall pay to Executive a lump sum payment in cash, no later than 10 days after the date of termination of employment, equal to the sum of (1) Executive’s accrued Base Salary and any accrued vacation pay through the date of termination of employment, and (2) Executive’s annual bonus earned for the fiscal year immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the date of termination of employment occurs if such bonus has not been paid as of the date of termination of employment.

(2) Payment of Severance. The Company shall pay to Executive a lump sum cash payment, no later than 10 days after such termination, equal to one (1) times Executive’s Final Pay as defined in Section 3(d). In the event Executive materially breaches any non-compete or confidentiality agreement then in effect with the Company, Executive agrees to return to the Company all amounts received under this Section 2(c)(2).

(3) Equity. Outstanding equity shall vest as follows: (1) The unexercised portions of all Options and SARs (as defined in the Trex Company, Inc. 2014 Stock Incentive Plan or a successor plan (“Incentive Plan”) granted to

Executive under the Incentive Plan that have not expired or been forfeited pursuant to their terms shall automatically accelerate and become fully exercisable, (2) the restrictions and conditions on all outstanding Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units (as defined in the Incentive Plan) granted to the Executive that have not expired or been forfeited pursuant to their terms shall immediately lapse and such Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units shall vest, and (3) all outstanding Restricted Stock Units and Restricted Stock (as defined in the Incentive Plan) granted to the Executive that are based upon performance of the Company over a certain period of time shall become payable at the Executive’s target payment for the relevant performance period (regardless of the amount of the relevant performance period that precedes the termination of employment).

(4) Benefit Continuation. Commencing on the date immediately following Executive’s date of termination of employment and continuing for 12 months (or such lesser time as required to avoid the imposition of additional taxes under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)) (the “Welfare Benefit Continuation Period”), the Company shall cover Executive under the same type of Company-sponsored group health plan and dental plan (e.g., individual or family coverage) in which he was covered immediately prior to termination of employment. The Executive shall receive such continued coverage under the same terms and conditions (e.g., any requirement that employees pay all or any portion of the cost of such coverage) that would apply if Executive had continued to be an employee of the Company during the Welfare Benefit Continuation Period.

(5) For each month during the Welfare Benefit Continuation Period in which Executive’s continued coverage under an insured plan is not possible, the Company shall, in lieu of providing the coverage described in the preceding paragraph, make a monthly cash payment to Executive equal to the monthly premium the Company would be charged for coverage of a similarly-situated employee. The Company shall not be obligated to “gross up” or otherwise compensate Executive for any taxes due on amounts paid pursuant to the preceding sentence.

(6) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2(c), the Company’s obligation to provide continued coverage (or, in lieu thereof, make a cash payment) pursuant to this Section 2(c) shall expire on the date Executive becomes covered under one or more plans sponsored by a new employer (other than a successor to the Company) that, at the sole discretion of the Administrator, as defined in Section 3(e), are determined to provide coverage at least equivalent in the aggregate to the benefits continued under Section 2(c)(4). The coverage period for purposes of the group health continuation requirements of Section 4980B of the Code shall commence at the expiration of the Welfare Benefit Continuation Period.

(7) Release. The Executive shall not be eligible to receive any payments or benefits provided in Section 2(c) (other than payments under Section 2(c)(1)) unless he first executes a written release and agreement provided by the Company and does not revoke such release and agreement within the time permitted therein for such revocation.

(8) Restriction on Timing of Distribution. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if (1) on Executive’s date of termination of employment, any of the Company’s stock is publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise (within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code) and (2) as a result of such termination, Executive would receive any payment that, absent the application of this Section 2(c)(8), would be subject to interest and additional tax imposed pursuant to Section 409A(a) of the Code as a result of the application of Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code, then no such payment shall be payable prior to the date that is the earliest of (x) six months after Executive’s date of termination of employment, (y) Executive’s death or (z) such other date as will cause such payment not to be subject to such interest and additional tax. For the avoidance of doubt, upon the Executive’s involuntary separation from service (as defined in Treas. Regs. §1.409A-1(n)), the preceding sentence shall not prevent payment to the Executive during such six-month period of an aggregate amount not exceeding the lesser of (a) two (2) times the sum of the Executive’s annualized compensation based upon the annual rate of pay for his taxable year preceding the taxable year of the separation from service, or (b) two (2) times the maximum amount that may be taken into account under a qualified plan pursuant to Section 401(a)(17) of the Code for the year in which the Executive has a separation from service, as permitted pursuant to Treas. Regs. §1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii).

(d) Termination During a Change in Control Protection Period. If Executive’s employment is terminated during a Change in Control Protection Period (as that term is defined in Executive’s Change in Control Severance Agreement), Executive shall be entitled to receive such severance payments and benefits as are set forth in Executive’s Change in Control Severance Agreement, and shall not be entitled to any benefits under this Section 2.
