(“BW”) awarded you a grant of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) under the Babcock
& Wilcox Enterprises, Inc. Amended and Restated 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan
(the “Plan”). By accepting your grant online through the Schwab Equity Award
Center, you agree that the RSUs are granted under and governed by the terms and
conditions of the Plan, and this 2019 Restricted Stock Units Grant Agreement
(this “Agreement”), which is included in the online acceptance process.  A copy
of the Plan and the Prospectus relating to the stock issued under the Plan can
be found at http://equityawardcenter.schwab.com under the “At a Glance/My
Company Info” tab in your Schwab account.  The Plan and Prospectus are
incorporated by reference and made a part of the terms and conditions of your
award.  If you would like to receive a copy of either the Plan or Prospectus,
please contact <contact>.

Any reference or definition contained in this Agreement shall, except as
otherwise specified, be construed in accordance with the terms and conditions of
the Plan and all determinations and interpretations made by the Committee with
regard to any question arising hereunder or under the Plan shall be binding and
conclusive on you and your legal representatives and beneficiaries. The term
“BW” as used in this Agreement with reference to employment shall include
Subsidiaries of BW (including unconsolidated joint ventures). In the event of
any inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan, the
Plan shall govern. Whenever the words “you” or “your” are used in any provision
of this Agreement under circumstances where the provision should logically be
construed to apply to the beneficiary, estate, or personal representative, to
whom any rights under this Agreement may be transferred by will or by the laws
of descent and distribution, it shall be deemed to include such person.

Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the terms and conditions of this grant
are as follows:

right to receive one Share after the vesting of such RSU, as set forth in

provisions of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement and the Plan shall be
administered in a manner consistent with this intent, and any provision that
would cause this Agreement or the Plan to fail to satisfy Section 409A of the
Code shall have no force or effect until amended to comply with or be exempt
from Section 409A of the Code (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent
permitted by Section 409A of the Code and may be made by BW without your
consent). If the RSUs become payable on your “separation from service” with BW

and you are a “specified employee” as determined pursuant to procedures adopted
by BW in compliance with Section 409A of the Code, then, to the extent necessary

service” with BW and its Subsidiaries within the meaning of Section
409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code or your death.

10.
Clawback Provisions.

Recovery of RSUs.  In the event that BW is required to prepare an accounting
restatement due to the material noncompliance of BW with any financial reporting
requirement under the U.S. federal securities laws as a result of fraud (a
“Restatement”) and the Board reasonably determines that you knowingly engaged in
the fraud, BW will have the right to recover the RSUs granted during the
three-year period preceding the date on which the Board or BW, as applicable,
determines it is required to prepare the Restatement (the “Three-Year Period”),
or vested in whole or in part during the Three-Year Period, to the extent of any
excess of what would have been granted to or would have vested for you under the
Restatement.

(b)
Recovery Process.  In the event a Restatement is required, the Board, based upon
a recommendation by the Committee, will (i) review the RSUs either granted or
vested in whole or in part during the Three-Year Period and (ii) in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan, take reasonable action to
seek recovery

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

have vested for you under the Restatement (but in no event more than the total
amount of such RSUs), as such excess amount is reasonably determined by the
Board in its sole discretion, in compliance with Section 409A of the Code.
 There shall be no duplication of recovery under Article 20 of the Plan and any
of 15 U.S.C. Section 7243 (Section 304 of The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002) and

Agreement without your written consent, and (b) your consent shall not be
required to an amendment that is deemed necessary by BW to ensure compliance
with Section 409A of the Code or Section 10D of the Exchange Act.

12.
Severability. In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Agreement
shall be invalidated for any reason by a court of competent jurisdiction, any
provision so invalidated shall be deemed to be separable from the other
provisions hereof, and the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be
valid and fully enforceable.

with the internal substantive laws of the State of Delaware, without giving
effect to any principle of law that would result in the application of the law
of any other jurisdiction.
