	4.	Eligibility and Participation. 

 (a) Eligibility. All Eligible Executives are
eligible to participate in this Plan for any Performance Period. 
 (b) Participation. For each Performance Period, the Committee, in
its discretion, shall select the Eligible Executives who shall participate in this Plan. The Committee will select the Participants no later than 90 days after the beginning of the Performance Period (or, if shorter, before 25% of the Performance
Period has elapsed) in accordance with Section 162(m). 
  

	5.	Awards. 

 (a) Establishment of Basis for Awards. In connection with the grant of
each Award, the Committee shall (i) establish the Performance Goal(s) and the Performance Period applicable to such Award, (ii) establish the formula for determining the amounts payable based on achievement of the applicable Performance
Goal(s), and (iii) establish such other terms and conditions for the Award as the Committee deems appropriate, including, without limitation, the consequences for the Award of the Participant’s termination of employment, demotion or
promotion during the Performance Period. The foregoing shall be accomplished within 90 days of the beginning of the Performance Period (or, if the Performance Period is shorter than 12 months, before 25% of the Performance Period has elapsed). 

(b) Performance Goals. The term “Performance Goals” means the objective performance goals established by the Committee for
each Performance Period. The Performance Goals may be described in terms of objectives that are related to an individual Participant or objectives that are Company-wide or related to a subsidiary, affiliate, division, department, region, function or
business unit; may be measured on an absolute or cumulative basis or on the basis of percentage of improvement over time; may be measured in terms of Company performance (or performance of the applicable subsidiary, affiliate, division, department,
region, function or business unit) or measured in terms of performance relative to selected peer companies or a market index; and different Performance Metrics may be given different weights. To the extent permissible for Awards to qualify for the
Section 162(m) Exemption, the Committee may establish other subjective or objective goals, including individual Performance Goals, which it deems appropriate, for purposes of applying negative discretion in determining the Award amount. 

(c) Performance Metrics. The term “Performance Metrics” means one or more of the following criteria on which Performance
Goals may be based: operating income before depreciation and amortization; operating income; free cash flow; net earnings; net earnings from continuing operations; earnings per share; earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization;
revenue; net revenue; funds from operations; adjusted funds from operations; total shareholder return; share price; return on equity; return in excess of cost of capital; profit in excess of cost of capital; return on assets; return on invested
capital; net operating profit after tax; operating margin; profit margin or any combination thereof. 
 (d) Adjustments. With respect
to Awards that are intended to comply with the Section 162(m) Exemption, the Committee shall specify, in a manner that satisfies the requirements of the Section 162(m) Exemption, whether the calculation of the Performance Goals applicable
to such Award shall be adjusted or modified in order to reflect the occurrence of qualifying criteria during the Performance Period. Such qualifying criteria may include, among others: any recapitalization, reorganization, stock split or dividend,
merger, acquisition, divestiture, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, split-off, combination, liquidation, dissolution, sale of assets or other similar corporate transaction or event, or to exclude the effect of any “extraordinary items”
under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, including, without limitation, any changes in accounting standards, and/or to reflect any other item or event determined by the Committee in its discretion. With respect to Awards
that are not intended to comply with the Section 162(m) Exemption, the Committee may appropriately adjust or modify the calculation of the Performance Goals applicable to such Award based upon the occurrence of qualifying criteria during the
Performance Period.

 (e) Certification of Awards. After the end of the Performance Period and prior to payment
of any Award, the Committee shall certify in writing the degree to which the Performance Goals applicable to each Participant for the Performance Period were achieved or exceeded. Subject to Section 5(f), the Award for each Participant shall be
determined by applying the applicable formula for the Performance Period based upon the level of achievement of the Performance Goals certified by the Committee. 

(f) Committee Discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, reduce or
eliminate, but not increase, any Award payable to any Participant for any reason, including without limitation to reflect individual or business performance and/or unanticipated or subjective factors. 

(g) Maximum Awards. No Participant may be granted Awards in respect of any Fiscal Year having a maximum aggregate value in excess of
the lesser of $25 million or eight (8) times his or her base salary in effect at the beginning of the Performance Period. 
 (h)
Timing of Payment. Awards will be payable by the Company to Participants as soon as administratively practicable following the determination and written certification of the Committee for the Performance Period pursuant to Section 5(e)
above. In the case of any Participant subject to U.S. federal income tax, the Company shall distribute amounts payable to Participants in the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Performance Period ends and no later than
March 15th of that calendar year. 
 (i) Form of Payment. Awards will be paid in cash or cash equivalents. The Committee in its
discretion may determine that all or a portion of an Award shall be paid in stock, restricted stock, stock options or other stock-based or stock denominated units which shall be issued pursuant to the CBS Outdoor Americas Inc. Omnibus Stock
Incentive Plan or a successor equity compensation plan in existence at the time of grant. 
 (j) Deferral of Payment of Awards.
Notwithstanding Section 5(h), the Committee, in its discretion, may defer the payout or vesting of any Award and/or provide to Participants the opportunity to elect to defer the payment of any Award under an approved deferred compensation plan
or arrangement. With respect to any Award (or portion thereof) that constitutes deferred compensation subject to Section 409A and is not otherwise exempt from Section 409A, such Award (or portion thereof) shall not be paid earlier than the
date that is six months after the Participant’s Separation from Service if the payment is based on the Participant’s Separation from Service (other than as a result of death) and the Participant is classified as a “specified
employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of his or her Separation from Service. 
 (k) Certain Participants not
Eligible. To be eligible for payment of any Award, the Participant must (i) be employed by the Company on the last day of the Performance Period, unless the Committee specifies otherwise, (ii) have performed the Participant’s
duties to the satisfaction of the Committee, and (iii) have not engaged in any acts that are considered by the Committee to constitute Misconduct. 
  

	6.	Miscellaneous Provisions. 

 (a) Effect on Benefit Plans. Awards shall not be
considered eligible pay under other plans, benefit arrangements or fringe benefit arrangements of the Company, unless otherwise specifically provided under the terms of such other plans. 

(b) Restriction on Transfer. Awards (or interests therein) or amounts payable with respect to a Participant under this Plan are not
subject to transfer, assignment or alienation, whether voluntary or involuntary. 
 (c) Withholding Taxes. CBS Outdoor or any
subsidiary or division thereof, as appropriate, shall have the right to deduct from all payments hereunder any federal, state, local or foreign taxes or social contributions required by law to be withheld with respect to such awards. The Participant
shall be solely responsible for the satisfaction of any federal, state, local or foreign taxes on payments under this Plan.

 (d) No Rights to Awards. Except as set forth herein, no Company employee or other person
shall have any claim or right to be granted an award under this Plan. Neither this Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as giving any employee any right to be retained in the employ of CBS Outdoor or any of its subsidiaries,
divisions or affiliates or to interfere with the ability of the Company to terminate any such employee’s employment relationship at any time. At no time before the actual payment of an Award shall any Participant or other person accrue any
vested interest or right whatsoever under this Plan, and the Company has no obligation to treat Participants identically under this Plan. 

(e) Costs and Expenses. The cost and expenses of administering this Plan shall be borne by the Company and shall not be charged to any
Award or to any Participant receiving an Award. 
 (f) No Funding of Plan. This Plan shall be unfunded, and the Awards shall be paid
solely from the general assets of the Company. The Company shall not be required to establish any special or separate fund or to make any other segregation of assets to assure the payment of any Award under this Plan. To the extent that any person
acquires a right to receive payments under this Plan, the right is no greater than the right of any other unsecured general creditor. 
 (g)
Offset for Monies Owed. Any payments made under this Plan will be offset for any monies that are owed to the Company to the extent permitted by applicable law, including Section 409A if such payment is subject to Section 409A. 

(h) Other Incentive Plans. Nothing contained in this Plan shall prohibit the Company from granting other performance awards to
employees of the Company (including Participants) under such other incentive arrangements, and in such form and manner, as it deems desirable. 

(i) Successors. All obligations of the Company under this Plan shall be binding on any successor to the Company whether the existence
of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise of all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company. 

(j) Section 409A. To the extent that any Award under this Plan is subject to Section 409A, the terms and administration of
such Award shall comply with the provisions of Section 409A, and, to the extent necessary to achieve compliance, shall be modified at the discretion of the Committee. 

(k) Severability. If any provision of this Plan or any Award is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction or would disqualify this Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without,
in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the purpose or intent of this Plan or the Award, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, and the remainder of this Plan or Award shall remain in full force and effect. 

(l) Governing Law. This Plan and all rights and awards hereunder shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the
State of Maryland.

be effective as of [                    ]. 

(b) Amendments. The Committee may at any time terminate or from time to time amend this Plan in whole or in part, but no such action
shall adversely affect any rights or obligations with respect to any Awards theretofore made under this Plan. No such amendment or modification, however, may be effective without approval of CBS Outdoor’s shareholders if such approval is
necessary to comply with the requirements of the Section 162(m) Exemption including (i) any change to the class of persons eligible to participate in this Plan, (ii) any change to the Performance Goals or Performance Metrics or
(iii) any increase to the maximum dollar amount that may be paid to a Participant for a Performance Period.

This Plan shall continue in effect until terminated by the Committee.
