ARTICLE IV

OPTION SHARES AVAILABLE FOR GRANT UNDER THE PLAN

4.1 Option Shares. The aggregate number of
shares of Common Stock with respect to which Options may be granted under the Plan shall not exceed 4,800,000 shares; provided, however, that such number of shares shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.3
below.

authorized and unissued shares, treasury shares or a combination thereof, as the Committee shall determine and shall be reserved by the Company for issuance as provided in the Plan. To the extent any outstanding Options expire or are terminated

ARTICLE V

GRANT OF
OPTIONS

5.1 Option Terms and Conditions. The terms and conditions of each Option granted under this Plan shall be as determined
by the Committee in consultation with the CEO.

5.2 Option Certificate. Each Option granted hereunder to a Participant shall be
evidenced by a certificate setting forth certain basic terms of the Option. The certificate shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex 1 (or in such other form as the Committee may from time to time adopt) (the Option
Certificate), and shall be signed by the CEO or such other officer of the Company as the Committee shall designate. For purposes of the Plan, no Option shall be deemed to be outstanding until it has been granted to a Participant by the
Committee and an Option Certificate has been executed and delivered by the Company, and an Option shall cease to be outstanding when it is repurchased by the Company, terminates or is exercised pursuant to the Plan.

5.3 Joinder Agreement. As a condition to exercising any Options hereunder, each Participant who is not a Management Stockholder shall be required
to execute a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex III (the Joinder) and thereby become a party to the Stockholders Agreement with respect to any Option Shares issued in connection with such exercise.

ARTICLE VI

EXERCISE
OF OPTIONS

6.1 Right to Exercise. Except as may otherwise be determined by the Committee, Options may not be Transferred other
than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and, during the lifetime of the Participant, Options may be exercised only by such Participant (or his legal guardian or legal representative). Any Transfer or attempted Transfer of an Option
contrary to this Section 6.1 shall be void, and the Company shall not record such Transfer on its books or treat any purported transferee of such Option as the owner of such Option for any purpose. In the event of the death of a Participant,
exercise of Options granted hereunder shall



5



---

be made only by the executor or administrator of the estate of the deceased Participant or the Person or Persons to whom the deceased Participants
rights under the Option shall pass by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

6.2 Procedure for Exercise. Any Participant may
exercise all or any portion of any of such Participants outstanding Options, to the extent such Options have vested as provided in the Option Certificate, at any time and from time to time prior to the expiration of such Options, by
completing, signing and delivering to the Company (to the attention of the Companys Secretary) the Option Certificate together with a notice of exercise substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex II (or in such other form as the
Committee may from time to time adopt and provide to the Participant) (the Exercise Notice), accompanied (in the case of a Participant who is not a Management Stockholder) by a Joinder to the Stockholder Agreement in the form attached as
Annex III together with the related Option Certificate(s) and payment in full of the Exercise Price. Payment of the Exercise Price shall be made in cash (including check, bank draft or money order); provided, that a Participant may, in lieu of
paying the Exercise Price in cash, deliver an Exercise Notice with respect to a specified number of Option Shares (the Specified Option Shares) and indicate in the Exercise Notice that such Participant intends to effect a cashless
exercise thereof and be entitled to receive in respect of the exercise of the Option therefor, Option Shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the excess of (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Specified Option Shares, over
(ii) the aggregate Exercise Price that otherwise would be payable hereunder in cash upon exercise of the Option for the Specified Option Shares. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.2 to the contrary, in the event that any Option
Certificate granted to a Participant is lost, stolen or destroyed, the Participant may, in lieu of delivering such Option Certificate at the time of exercise, deliver an affidavit as to its loss, theft or destruction and any indemnity that the
Company may reasonably request. A Participants right to exercise the Option shall be subject to the satisfaction of all conditions set forth in the Exercise Notice. If a Participant exercises any Options for less than all of the Option Shares
covered by the relevant Option Certificate, the Company shall issue a new Option Certificate to such Participant in respect of the portion of such Option remaining unexercised.

6.3 Securities Laws Restrictions on Transfer of Option Shares. Each Participant exercising an Option will be required to represent to the Company
in the Exercise Notice that when such Participant exercises his or her Option such Participant will be purchasing Option Shares for his or her own account for investment and not on behalf of others or otherwise with a view toward distributing them.
Each Participant is advised that federal and state securities laws govern and restrict each Participants right to Transfer, or offer to Transfer, any Option Shares unless such Participants Transfer, or offer to Transfer, is registered
under the Securities Act and state securities laws, or such Transfer, or offer to Transfer, is exempt from registration or qualification thereunder. Each Participant is further advised that the Stockholders Agreement, to which each Participant will
become a party upon exercise of such Participants Options, imposes additional restrictions on the transfer of Option Shares, and that the stock certificates for any Option Shares issued in connection with such exercise will bear such legends
as the Company deems necessary or desirable in connection with the Securities Act or other rules, regulations or laws.

---

6.4 Withholding of Taxes. The Company shall be entitled, if necessary or desirable, to withhold
from any amounts due and payable by the Company to such Participant (or secure payment from such Participant in lieu of withholding) the amount of any withholding or other tax due from the Company with respect to any Option Shares issuable under the
Plan, and the Company may defer such issuance unless indemnified to its satisfaction.

6.5 Listing, Registration and Compliance with
Laws and Regulations. Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the requirement that if at any time the Committee shall make a good faith determination that the listing, registration or qualification of Option Shares upon any securities
exchange or under any state or federal securities or other law or regulation, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition to or in connection with the granting of the Options or the
issuance or purchase of Option Shares thereunder, no Options may be exercised, in whole or in part, unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not reasonably
acceptable to the Committee. The Company shall in good faith, and to the extent consistent with its reasonable business judgment, exercise all reasonable efforts to obtain any such listing, registration, qualification or approval. The holders of
such Options shall supply the Company with such certificates, representations and information as the Company shall request and shall otherwise cooperate with the Company in obtaining such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval.
Any period of time during which an Option may not be exercised by reason of the first sentence of this Section 6.5 is referred to herein as an Option Exercise Suspension Period. If the expiration date of the Option as set forth in
the related Option Certificate shall fall within an applicable Option Exercise Suspension Period, the term of the Option shall automatically be extended until the date that is 45 days following the end of the Option Exercise Suspension Period. The
Company shall provide affected Optionees with timely notice of the commencement and termination of any Option Exercise Suspension Period. Except as may otherwise be provided in the Stockholders Agreement, the Company shall be under no obligation to
register any Option Shares.

ARTICLE VII

TERMINATION AND REPURCHASE OF OPTIONS

7.1 Expiration Date of Options. Except as may
otherwise be provided by the Committee, in no event shall any part of any Option be exercisable after 5:00 p.m. Central Standard Time on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant of the option.

7.2 Termination for Cause. Upon the termination of a Participants employment with the Company or any Subsidiary for Cause, any Options held
by the Participant, regardless of the extent vested or unvested, shall immediately expire and be forfeited in its entirety to the extent not exercised prior to the date of such termination.

7.3 Termination by the Company without Cause. Upon a Participants termination of employment by the Company or any Subsidiary without Cause,
(a) except as may otherwise be provided in any applicable employment agreement between the Company and the Participant (a Participant Employment Agreement) the unvested portion of any Options held by the Participant shall
immediately expire, (b) if such termination occurs prior to a Qualified Public



7



---

Offering, the Company shall repurchase the unexercised vested portion of any such Options (including any Options that vest pursuant to a Participant
Employment Agreement) at a price equal to the Fair Market Value thereof, and (c) if such termination occurs after a Qualified Public Offering, except as may otherwise be provided in a Participant Employment Agreement, the unexercised vested
portion of any such Options shall remain exercisable for a period of 90 days following the date of such termination of employment, whereupon such Options shall terminate in full.

7.4 Voluntary Termination by the Participant; Death or Disability. Upon a Participants voluntary termination of employment with the Company
or any Subsidiary or upon termination of such employment by reason of the Participants death or Disability, (a) the unvested portion of any Options held by the Participant shall immediately expire, (b) if such termination occurs
prior to a Qualified Public Offering, the Company shall repurchase the unexercised vested portion of any such Options at a price equal to the lower of (i) the Fair Market Value thereof or (ii) the excess of (x) the Exercise Price of
such Options as increased at the rate of 6% per year from the date of grant through the date of termination of employment over (y) the Exercise Price of the Options, and (c) if such termination occurs after a Qualified Public
Offering, except as may otherwise be provided in a Participant Employment Agreement, the unexercised vested portion of any such Options shall remain exercisable for a period of 90 days following the date of such termination of employment, whereupon
such Options shall terminate in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee shall have the discretion to permit vested Options held by retirees to remain outstanding following the date of retirement for a period specified by the Committee.

7.5 Payment of Repurchase Price. The aggregate purchase price of the vested portion of any Options to be repurchased by the Company
pursuant to this Article VII shall be paid, either (i) in cash by delivery of a check or wire transfer of funds, or (ii) prior to the first Company Sale following the Closing Date, at the sole discretion of the Company, by delivery of a
subordinated note of the Company with interest thereon accruing at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum, with all accrued interest and principal payable two years from the date of issuance (the Subordinated Note); provided,
however, in the event that during the term of the Subordinated Note the Participant accepts employment with Harnischfeger Corp., the term of the Subordinated Note shall be extended for an additional two years following expiration of the original
term. The Subordinated Note shall be expressly subordinated to all other indebtedness for borrowed money of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company shall not be obligated to repurchase the vested portion of any
Options pursuant to this Article VII to the extent (a) the Company is prohibited from purchasing such shares by any agreements for borrowed money (each, a Debt Instrument) entered into by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by
applicable law; (b) a default has occurred under any Debt Instrument and is continuing; (c) the repurchase of such vested Options would, in the opinion of the Board, result in the occurrence of an event of default under any Debt Instrument
or create a condition which would, with notice or lapse of time or both, result in such an event of default; or (d) the purchase of such vested Options would, in the reasonable opinion of the Board, materially impair the Companys ability
to meet its obligations under any Debt Instrument in connection with its business and operations. The Company shall provide affected Optionees with timely notice of the existence and lapse of any of the conditions described in the foregoing clauses
(a) - (d).

ARTICLE VIII

MISCELLANEOUS

8.1 Rights of Participants. Nothing in this Plan shall interfere with or limit
in any way any right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to terminate any Participants employment at any time (with or without Cause), nor confer upon any Participant any right to continued employment by the such employees present
(or any other) rate of compensation. Transfer of an Employee from the Company to a Subsidiary, from a Subsidiary to the Company and from one Subsidiary to another shall not be considered a termination of such Employees employment for purposes
of this Plan. Where applicable, references in this Plan to termination of employment or similar phrases shall be deemed to include references to termination of service as a consultant or advisor. No Employee shall have a right to be
selected as a Participant or, having been so selected, to be selected again as a Participant.

8.2 Amendment, Suspension and Termination
of Plan. The Committee may not suspend, terminate or materially amend the Plan or any portion thereof at any time without stockholder approval to the extent such approval is required by law, agreement or the rules of any exchange upon which the
Common Stock is listed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no suspension, termination or amendment of or to the Plan may adversely affect the rights of any holder of Options with respect to Options issued hereunder prior to the date of such suspension,
termination or amendment without the consent of such holder.

8.3 Adjustments. In the event of any merger, reorganization,
consolidation, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, share combination or other change affecting the shares of Common Stock, the Committee shall make such adjustments in the number and type of shares authorized by the Plan, the number and
type of shares covered by outstanding Options and the Exercise Prices specified therein and any other adjustments to the Option as the Committee, reasonably and in good faith, determines to be appropriate and equitable in order to prevent the
dilution or enlargement of the rights granted hereunder or under any outstanding Options.

8.4 Construction of Plan. The validity,
construction, interpretation, administration and effect of the Plan shall be determined in accordance with the local law, and not the law of conflicts, of the State of Delaware.

8.5 Indemnification. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, indemnify the CEO and the members of the Committee against all
costs and expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with any action, suit or proceeding to which they or any of them may be a party by reason of any action taken or failure to act under or in connection with the Plan or any Option granted
thereunder or any Option Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option, and against all amounts paid by them in settlement thereof (provided such settlement is approved by independent legal counsel selected by the Company) or paid by them in
satisfaction of a judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding; provided, however, that any such Person shall be entitled to the indemnification rights set forth in this Section 8.5 only if such Person has acted in good faith and in a manner
that such Person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that such conduct was unlawful, and provided further that
upon the institution of any such action, suit or proceeding such Person shall give the Company written notice thereof and an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before such Person undertakes to handle and defend it on his
or her own behalf.

OPTION VESTING

The Option shall vest as set forth below. Capitalized terms have the meanings assigned to such terms either in the Plan or in Section 7 below.

1. Performance-Based EBITDA Targets. The Option shall vest based on the Companys actual EBITDA performance during each of the Companys 1998
through 2001 fiscal years (each, a Plan Year and, in the aggregate, the Performance Vesting Period) as compared with the EBITDA Target for such Plan Year. The EBITDA Targets for each Plan Year are as follows:



|                  |  |               |           
|----------------- |  | ------------- | ----------
|Plan Year         |  | EBITDA Target
|1/1/98 - 12/31/98 |  | $             | 40,209,000
|1/1/99 - 12/31/99 |  | $             | 50,399,000
|1/1/00 - 12/31/00 |  |               | *         
|1/1/01 - 12/31/01 |  |               | *         

*To be determined by the Company in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer based on the Companys
business plan.

The actual percentage achievement of the EBITDA Target for a Plan Year is referred to as the Performance Level for that Plan
Year. The Performance Level for each Plan Year shall be determined by the Committee within a reasonable period of time after the Companys audited financial statements for such Plan Year become available.

2. Normal Option Vesting. The Option is targeted to vest at the rate of 25% of the total Option Shares in each Plan Year (the Base Option Vesting
Amount). No portion of the Base Option Vesting Amount for any Plan Year will vest unless the Performance Level for such Plan Year is greater than 90% of the EBITDA Target. The entire Base Option Vesting Amount for any Plan Year will vest
effective as of the last day of such Plan Year if the Performance Level for such Plan Year is equal to or greater than 100%. If the Performance Level for any Plan Year is between 90% and 100%, the Base Option Vesting Amount will vest pro rata

If the Performance Level for a Plan Year falls between two whole number percents, the Percentage of Total
Option Shares Vesting in such Plan Year shall be adjusted pro rata. The number of Option Shares vesting in any Plan Year will be rounded to the nearest whole share.

3. Performance Level in Excess of 100% in a Plan Year. If the Performance Level in any Plan Year exceeds 100%, the amount of actual EBITDA for such Plan Year in excess of the EBITDA Target for such Plan Year (the
EBITDA Surplus) will be applied first to make-up any portion of the Base Option Vesting Amount that failed to vest in any prior Plan Year by reason of a Performance Level less than 100%, and second to surplus
accelerated vesting of up to one-quarter of the Option Shares that would otherwise have been eligible for vesting as part of the Base Option Vesting Amount for the 2001 Plan Year, each as described below. For purposes of this Section 3, the
term EBITDA Deficit shall mean the amount by which, in any Plan Year, the Companys actual EBITDA for such Plan Year falls short of the EBITDA Target for such Plan Year.

(a) Make-Up Vesting. If there is an EBITDA Surplus for any Plan Year, the amount of such EBITDA Surplus will first be applied to offset
the amount of any EBITDA Deficit for the immediately preceding Plan Year, whereupon (i) the Performance Level for such preceding Plan Year shall be recalculated, (ii) the Optionee shall be deemed to vest, effective as of the last day of
the Plan Year as to which such surplus was achieved, in the appropriate additional number of Option Shares for such preceding Plan Year in accordance with Section 2 above, and (iii) such EBITDA Surplus shall be reduced by the amount of
such offset. Any remaining EBITDA Surplus shall then be applied sequentially to any EBITDA Deficit for any earlier Plan Years, until the amount of such EBITDA Surplus has been reduced to zero. In no event shall any EBITDA Surplus (i) be used to
achieve a Performance Level for any prior Plan Year in excess of 100% or (ii) be carried over to reduce any EBITDA Deficit in any subsequent Plan Year.

(b) Surplus Vesting. If, after the application of Section 3(a) above, any EBITDA Surplus achieved as to the 1998, 1999 or 2000 Plan
Years remains, the Surplus Vesting Percentage shall be calculated by dividing the amount of any such remaining EBITDA Surplus by the EBITDA Target for such Plan Year, whereupon Option Shares that would otherwise have been eligible for
vesting as part of the Base Option Vesting Amount for the 2001 Plan Year shall vest, effective as of the last day of the Plan Year as to which such EBITDA surplus was achieved, according to the following schedule:



|                           |  |                                                    |

|9%          |  | 5.625 | %
|10% or more |  | 6.250 | %

If the Surplus Vesting Percentage for a Plan Year falls between two whole number percents, the Percentage of Total
Option Shares Subject to Surplus Vesting shall be adjusted pro rata. The number of Option Shares vesting in any Plan Year will be rounded to the nearest whole share. The Base Option Vesting Amount for the 2001 Plan Year shall be reduced by the
amount of any Option Shares subject to surplus vesting in any prior Plan Year, and for purposes of calculating the number of Option Shares vesting based on performance during the 2001 Plan Year, the vesting table set forth in Section 2 shall be
adjusted proportionately, such that the full number of Option Shares remaining in the Base Option Vesting Amount for the 2001 Plan Year will vest only if the Performance Level for the 2001 Plan Year is 100% or more. In no event shall any EBITDA
Surplus for any Plan Year be carried over to any subsequent Plan Year.

4. Full Vesting on Company Sale; Termination of Option;
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Company Sale is consummated prior to the end of the 2001 Plan Year, 100% of the Option Shares shall automatically vest immediately prior to consummation of such Company Sale. In connection with a Company Sale, the
Company may, in its discretion, either (i) upon not less than 30 days notice prior to consummation of such Company Sale (or such lesser notice period as shall otherwise be reasonable under the circumstances) , permit the Participant to exercise
all or part of the Option in advance of such Company Sale or (ii) provide for the deemed exercise of all or part of the Option and payment in cash or other property therefor. In either such event, unless otherwise determined by the Company in
its discretion, any Option or part thereof not so exercised or deemed exercised in connection with such Company Sale shall expire upon the consummation of such Company Sale.

5. Nine Year Cliff Vesting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to Section 6 below, any Option Shares that fail to vest by reason of the
vesting provisions of Sections 1 through 4 above shall nonetheless vest on the ninth anniversary of the date of grant of the Option.

6.
Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Plan, except as may otherwise be provided in any applicable employment agreement between the Company and the Participant, all Options held by a Participant shall
cease to vest as of the date such Participants employment with the Company or any Subsidiary terminates for any reason and under any circumstances.

7. Definitions. For purposes of this Schedule 1, the terms set forth below shall be defined as follows:

EBITDA means, with reference to any period, Net Income for such period adjusted (a) by adding thereto the amount of all (i) debt interest expense to the extent included in determining Net Income for such period,
(ii) depreciation and amortization expenses and non-cash charges, including, without limitation, (A) the non-cash portion of any expenses incurred during such period pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 106,
(B)



15



---

purchase accounting adjustments that occur as a result of the application of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 16 and (C) non-cash charges
for compensation costs recognized pursuant to Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (as permitted under Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 123) in connection with Options granted to employees of the Company and its
Subsidiaries to the extent included in determining Net Income for such period, (iii) all income taxes to the extent included in determining Net Income, and (iv) the management fee payable under the Management Agreement and all
directors fees, in each case, to the extent included in determining Net Income for such period, and (b) by subtracting therefrom (1) all interest income to the extent included in determining Net Income for such period, and
(ii) all tax credits to the extent included in determining Net Income for such period.

The Committee will make equitable adjustments to the EBITDA
Targets from time to time to reflect (i) acquisitions and dispositions made by the Company and its subsidiaries during the Performance Vesting Period and (ii) the establishment of accounting reserves prior to January 1, 1998 and, in
each case, the anticipated effect on the EBITDA Targets resulting therefrom.

Net Income means, with reference to any period,
the net income (or deficit) of the Company and its Subsidiaries for such period, after deducting all operating expenses, provisions for taxes, reserves and all other proper deductions, all determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles applied on a consolidated basis and on a basis consistent with prior periods after eliminating all intercompany transactions and after deducting portions of income properly attributable to minority interests, if any, in the stock and
surplus of Subsidiaries; provided, however, that there shall be excluded (a) any aggregate net gain or net loss during such period arising from the sale, exchange or other disposition of capital assets, (b) any net income or gain from the
collection of the proceeds of insurance policies (other than proceeds of business interruption insurance for lost income to the extent such loss reduced Net Income for such period and proceeds of other insurance in respect of claims or losses to the
extent such claims or losses reduced Net Income for such period) , (c) any gain or loss arising from the acquisition of any securities, or the extinguishment, under generally accepted accounting principles, of any indebtedness of the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries, or (d) any net income or gain or net loss during such period from any change in accounting principles originally used as a basis for the computation of EBITDA or from any extraordinary items.
