Dear Michael:

We are pleased to confirm our offer to you to join Jacobs as Senior Vice
President, General Counsel. You will report directly to John Prosser, Executive
Vice President Finance and Administration, with regard to job assignments and
responsibilities. Such employment is conditional upon your acceptance of the
terms and conditions outlined in this letter and the attached Employee
Acceptance Statement. We believe that this is an outstanding opportunity for you
to become a part of the Jacobs team, and we are confident that your experience
will contribute to our success.
Your effective date of hire will be on a mutually agreeable date on or around
June 24, 2013, at a bi-weekly rate of $16,538.46 for an annual starting salary
of $430,000. You will be scheduled for a performance evaluation and be eligible
for salary increase consideration annually. Compensation increases are based on
individual merit and meeting specific performance targets. The position is
classified as exempt with no eligibility for overtime.

In addition to base salary, your offer includes the following:

•
You will be eligible for participation in Jacobs' Incentive Bonus Plan, Formula
Level 4 (at a current target of 84% of base salary), subject to performance and
other requirements as described in the terms and conditions of the plan. For the
first fiscal year (fiscal year 2013), you will be paid two-thirds of the
prorated amount awarded with the balance deferred to the following year. In
subsequent years, the awarded bonus will be paid over three years in equal parts
as provided for in the Plan.

•
A Sign On bonus of $120,000 (subject to applicable taxes & withholdings). The
first payment of $75,000 will be added to your Formula Bonus payment in December
2013 and the final payment of $45,000 will be added to your Formula Bonus in
December 2014. If you voluntarily separate from Jacobs or are discharged for
cause prior to June 1, 2014, you are responsible for reimbursing Jacobs the
amount of this Sign On bonus.

•
A grant of 5,000 shares of Jacobs' restricted stock that will vest five years
from the date of award. Specific details of this grant will be forwarded to you
under separate cover after your employment date.

•
In addition, you will be eligible for future equity compensation commensurate
with that granted to Senior Vice President and Group Vice Presidents each May,
beginning in May 2013. All such equity awards are subject to and in accordance
with the terms and conditions of the 1999 Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. Stock
Incentive Plan, and subject to approval of Jacobs' Human Resource and
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The proposed award for 2013 is
12,000 options, 4,000 performance stock units based on net income, and 4,000
relative TSR for three year period.

•
Accruing time off at a rate of 25 days (200 hours) per calendar year (in

Jacobs Paid Time Off (PTO) policy will remain in effect.
