RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT

 

This Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (the “Agreement”), is entered into on the Date of Grant, subject to the Participant’s acceptance of the terms of the Agreement evidenced by the Participant’s signature on the Restricted Stock Unit Award Certificate accompanying this Agreement (the “Certificate”), by and between Suncrete, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the Participant named in the Certificate.

 

Under the Suncrete, Inc. 2026 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the Administrator has authorized the grant to the Participant of the number of Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Certificate (the “Award”), under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Certificate, and the Plan. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the benefits to be derived from the mutual observance of the covenants and promises contained in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.             Basis for Award. This Award is granted under the Plan for valid consideration provided to the Company by the Participant. By the Participant’s execution of the Certificate, the Participant agrees to accept the Award rights granted under the Certificate and this Agreement and to receive the Restricted Stock Units designated in the Certificate subject to the terms of the Plan, the Certificate, and this Agreement.

 

2.             Restricted Stock Units Awarded. The Company hereby awards and grants to the Participant the number of Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Certificate. Each Restricted Stock Unit represents a right to receive one Share (or the cash equivalent) from the Company, and any Dividend Equivalents (as defined below) credited to the Participant’s Restricted Stock Unit Account (as defined below) with respect to that Share, upon vesting of the Restricted Stock Unit as provided in Section 3 below. Vested Restricted Stock Units will be settled as provided in Section 5 below. The Company shall establish and maintain an account (the “Restricted Stock Unit Account”) for the Participant and will credit that account for the number of Restricted Stock Units granted to the Participant and for any Dividend Equivalents as provided in Section 4 below. The value of each Restricted Stock Unit on any given date will equal the Fair Market Value of one Share on that date.

 

3.             Vesting. The Restricted Stock Units will vest in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set forth in the Certificate, on condition that the Participant is in Continuous Service on each vesting date. If the Participant ceases Continuous Service for any reason the Participant will immediately forfeit all unvested Restricted Stock Units and any Dividend Equivalents credited to the Restricted Stock Unit Account.

 

4.             Dividend Equivalents. If the Company pays any cash dividend on its outstanding Common Stock for which the record date occurs after the Date of Grant, the Administrator will credit the Participant’s Restricted Stock Unit Account as of the dividend payment date in an amount equal to the amount of the dividend paid by the Company on a single Share multiplied by the number of unvested Restricted Stock Units under this Award as of that record date (“Dividend Equivalents”). Dividend Equivalents will be subject to the vesting requirements of Section 3 of this Agreement. No Dividend Equivalent will vest or be paid to the Participant unless and until the corresponding Restricted Stock Unit vests and is settled.

5.             Settlement. Subject to Section 13(i), the Company will settle the Restricted Stock Units on the Settlement Date or Dates set forth in the Certificate by issuing to the Participant one Share for each Restricted Stock Unit that has satisfied all vesting requirements on that Settlement Date and cash in the amount of any Dividend Equivalents credited to the Restricted Stock Unit Account with respect to that Share. On settlement, the Restricted Stock Units, and any related Dividend Equivalents, will cease to be credited to the Restricted Stock Unit Account. If the Certificate does not specify a Settlement Date, the applicable Settlement Date will be the applicable vesting date set forth in the Vesting Schedule. Subject to the satisfaction of the withholding provisions in Section 8 below, the Administrator will cause the Shares to be issued to the Participant on the applicable Settlement Date either by an appropriate entry in the books of the Company or of the Company’s transfer agent or by delivery of a stock certificate, and will cause cash to be delivered in the amount of any Dividend Equivalents credited to the Restricted Stock Unit Account with respect to such Shares, free of all restrictions hereunder, except for applicable securities laws restrictions, and will enter the Participant’s name as stockholder of record with respect to such Shares on the books of the Company. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that Shares may be issued in electronic form as a book entry with the Company’s transfer agent and no physical certificates need be issued. In no event shall a Settlement Date be later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the corresponding Restricted Stock Units vested.

 

6.             Restrictions on Transfer. Until the applicable Settlement Date, the Restricted Stock Units and any related Dividend Equivalents credited to the Restricted Stock Unit Account may not be pledged, hypothecated or transferred in any manner other than by will or by the applicable laws of descent and distribution, or if approved in writing by the Administrator, by gift or domestic relations order to a Permitted Transferee, provided that the Restricted Stock Units and any related Dividend Equivalents credited to the Restricted Stock Unit Account will remain subject to the terms of the Plan, the Certificate, and this Agreement.

 

7.             Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The issuance and transfer of Common Stock on any Settlement Date is subject to the Company’s and the Participant’s full compliance, to the satisfaction of the Company and its counsel, with all applicable requirements of federal, state and foreign securities laws and with all applicable requirements of any securities exchange on which the Common Stock may be listed at the time of issuance or transfer. The Participant understands that the Company is under no obligation to register or qualify the Shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission, any state securities commission, foreign securities regulatory authority or any securities exchange to effect such compliance.

 

8.             Tax Withholding. As a condition to settlement under Section 5, on or before the date on which any of the Restricted Stock Units vest the Participant must pay to the Company any federal, state or local taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock Units, and any Dividend Equivalents then credited to the Restricted Stock Unit Account, that vest. In addition to the Company’s right to withhold from any compensation otherwise payable to the Participant by the Company, the Participant may provide for payment of withholding taxes in full by cash or check or, if the Administrator permits, by one or more of the alternative methods of payment set forth in the Plan.

 

9.             No Right to Continued Service. Nothing in this Agreement or the Plan is intended to impose or may be deemed to impose, by implication or otherwise, any limitation on any right of the Company or its Affiliates to terminate the Participant’s Continuous Service at any time and for any reason or no reason.

(g)             Headings. The headings that are used in this Agreement are used for reference and convenience purposes only and do not constitute substantive matters to be considered in construing the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Notice of Grant, or the Plan to the contrary, with respect to any payments and benefits to which Section 409A applies, if the Participant is a “specified employee,” within the meaning of Section 409A, then to the extent necessary to avoid subjecting the Participant to the imposition of any additional tax under Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable during the six-month period immediately following the Participant’s “separation from service,” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i), shall not be paid to the Participant during such period, but shall instead be accumulated and paid to the Participant (or, in the event of the Participant’s death, the Participant’s estate) in a lump sum on the first business day after the earlier of the date that is six months following the Participant’s separation from service or the Participant’s death. Each payment hereunder shall be treated for all purposes as a separate payment.
