The Award is made under and pursuant to the MRC Global Inc. 2011 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) which Plan is incorporated in this Agreement by reference, and the Award is subject to Section 9 of the Plan and all the provisions of the Plan.

			If prior to the cancellation, termination or forfeiture of all of the Restricted Stock Units the Participant hold any Restricted Stock Units and the Company pays a dividend in Shares with respect to its outstanding Shares, then the Company will increase the Restricted Stock Units awarded under this Agreement by an amount equal to the product of (a) the Restricted Stock Units that have not been cancelled, terminated, forfeited or exchanged and (b) the number of Shares paid by the Company per Share (collectively, the “Stock Dividend RSUs”).  Each Stock Dividend RSU will be subject to the same restrictions, limitations and conditions applicable to the Restricted Stock Unit for which such Stock Dividend RSU was awarded and will be exchanged for Shares at the same time and on the same basis as such Restricted Stock Unit.

			3

		






 

			18][SVPs: 12][all others: six] months after Participant’s Termination of employment with the Company Group (the “Restricted Period”).  If the Participant engages in a Prohibited Activity during the Restricted Period, the Company or its appropriate Subsidiaries may seek an injunction from a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent Participant from engaging in the Prohibited Activity during the Restricted Period without the necessity of posting bond or other security to obtain the injunction.  Both the Company and the Participant agree that monetary damages alone are an insufficient remedy for breach of the foregoing covenant.  The Company or its appropriate Subsidiaries may seek monetary damages in addition to an injunction, and the covenant in favor of the Company Group in this Agreement is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any similar covenants that Participant may have entered into in favor of any member of the Company Group in any employment or other agreement.  To the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction rules that the restrictions in the foregoing covenant are too broad, these restrictions shall be interpreted and construed in the broadest possible manner to provide the Company Group the broadest possible protection, including (without limitation) with respect to geographic coverage, activities of the Company Group’s businesses and time of applicability of the restrictions.




			
	
			
				 8.
			No Right to Continued Employment.  Nothing in this Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or its Subsidiaries to Terminate the Participant’s employment, nor confer upon the Participant any right to continuance of employment by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or continuance of service as a Board member.




			
	
			
				 9.
			Withholding of Taxes.  To the extent that the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units or a distribution under the Agreement results in income to the Participant for any income, employment or other tax purposes with respect to which the Company Group has a withholding obligation,  the Participant (or the Participant’s estate) shall be required to pay to the Company (or any Affiliate that employs the Participant) at such time required under applicable law, and the Company (or any Affiliate that employs the Participant) shall have the right and is hereby authorized to withhold, any applicable withholding taxes in respect of such Award, or any payment or transfer under, or with respect to, such Award, and to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Committee to satisfy all obligations for the payment or withholding of such withholding taxes.    The Participant may elect to satisfy the withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold from a Share payment the number of Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date the withholding is to be determined equal to the withholding amount.  The Participant shall be solely responsible for the payment of all taxes relating to the payment or provision of any amounts or benefits under this Agreement.  




			
	
			
				 10.
			Modification of Agreement.  This Agreement may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated, and any terms or conditions may be waived, but only by a written instrument executed by the parties hereto, except as otherwise permitted under the Plan.




			
	
			
				 11.
			Severability.  Should any provision of this Agreement be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable or invalid for any reason, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected by such holding and shall continue in full force in accordance with their terms.
