PERFORMANCE-BASED 

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT 

THIS PERFORMANCE-BASED RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT, including the Appendix attached hereto (this
“Agreement”), dated as of [•] (the “Date of Grant”), is made by and between Key Energy Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and [•] (the
“Participant”). 
 R E C I T A L S: 

WHEREAS, Awards of Restricted Stock Units intended to qualify as Performance Compensation Awards (“Performance-Based
Restricted Stock Units”), may be granted pursuant to the Key Energy Services, Inc. 2016 Equity and Cash Incentive Plan (the “Plan”); 

[WHEREAS, in [December 2016] [January 2017] the Participant received equity awards pursuant to a Performance-based/Time-vested Option
Award Agreement and a Performance-based/Time-vested Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (together, the “Prior Awards”); 

WHEREAS, the Company has determined that the first tranche of the Prior Awards that is scheduled to vest during [December 2017] [and
January 2018] shall be allowed to vest, if at all, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the original award agreements (the “December Vesting Awards”); 

WHEREAS, the Company has determined that the Participant be given an election to continue to hold the Prior Awards that do not become
vested with the December Vesting Awards, or to forfeit all rights to the Prior Awards other than the December Vesting Awards and receive this new award of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units; 

WHEREAS, the Participant has elected to forfeit all rights pursuant to the Prior Awards other than the December Vesting Awards and to
receive the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Agreement (the “Participant Election”); 

WHEREAS, by making the Participant Election the Participant has agreed that the vesting and settlement of the December Vesting Awards
was in full satisfaction of the Prior Awards;] 
 WHEREAS, the Administrator has determined that it is in the best interests of the
Company and its stockholders to grant the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (the “Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit Award”) provided for herein pursuant to the terms of the Plan and subject to the further terms
and conditions set forth herein; and 
 WHEREAS, the Participant desires to accept the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit Award
made pursuant to this Agreement and agrees to abide by the restricts that accompany this Agreement, including those set forth in Appendix A hereto. 






 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the [Participant Election and the mutual covenants
hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  

	1.	Grant of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units. The Company hereby grants to the Participant the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit Award consisting of [•] Performance-Based Restricted Stock
Units. The number of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units that the Participant will actually earn will be determined as set forth in Section 3 hereof. 


 

	2.	Incorporation by Reference. The provisions of the Plan are incorporated herein by reference. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the
provisions of the Plan and any capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the definitions set forth in the Plan. The Administrator shall have the authority to interpret and construe the Plan and this Agreement and to make
any and all determinations thereunder, and its decision shall be binding and conclusive upon the Participant and his or her legal representative in respect of any questions arising under the Plan or this Agreement. 


 

	3.	Vesting of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units. Subject to (i) the Participant’s Continued Service through the last day of the 2020 Performance Period (as defined below) and
(ii) compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including without limitation, the restrictive covenants set forth in Appendix A), the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units shall be earned and vested following the end
of the 2020 Performance Period (as defined below). One-third of the target number of Performance-based Restricted Stock Units granted in Section 1 will be assigned to each individual Performance Period,
with the actual number of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units in each tranche that will become earned and vested during that Performance Period to be determined based on the Company’s level of adjusted
non-capitalized EBITDA (as defined below) generated (the “Performance Goal”) during the applicable performance periods set forth below (each a “Performance
Period”). As used herein, “EBITDA” means Company adjusted non-capitalized earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.

	 	(b)	Certification. Following completion of each Performance Period, the Administrator shall review and certify in writing the level of performance achieved with respect to the Performance Goal for such Performance
Period. In the event that EBITDA performance was reached in between any of the levels set forth in Section 3(a), the number of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units that will be deemed earned and vested for that tranche will be interpolated
on a linear basis. At the end of the 2020 Performance Period, the Administrator shall review the number of Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units in each tranche that were deemed to have been earned and vested to determine the aggregate number of
Performance-based Restricted Stock Units that have become earned and vested pursuant to this Agreement. 

  

	4.	Settlement. 

  

	 	(a)	Amount. The Company will deliver one share of Common Stock for each vested Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit, less any withholding (as permitted pursuant to the Plan and Section 7
hereof). The value of any fractional Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit shall be rounded down at the time shares of Common Stock are issued. No fractional shares of Common Stock, nor the cash value of any fractional shares of Common Stock, will
be issuable or payable pursuant to this Agreement. The value of shares of Common Stock shall not bear any interest owing to the passage of time. Neither this Section 4 nor any action taken in accordance with this
Section 4 shall be construed to create a trust or a funded or secured obligation of any kind. 

  

	 	(b)	Timing. Delivery in respect of the vested Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units will be made as soon as administratively practicable following completion of the certification required by
Section 3(b) above with respect to the 2020 Performance Period, and in any event within sixty (60) days following the end of the 2020 Performance Period. Such delivery shall be subject to the Participant’s
continued compliance with the restrictive covenants set forth in Appendix A. 

  

	5.	Termination of Continuous Service. Subject to Section 6(b), or as may otherwise be determined by the Board in its discretion, all unvested Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units
shall be forfeited upon termination of the Participant’s Continuous Service for any reason. 

  

	6.	Change of Control. 

  

	 	(a)	Notwithstanding Section 3, the Board may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units in connection with a Change of Control (as defined
below). 

  

	 	(b)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Participant’s Continuous Service is terminated (i) by the Company other than due to a Termination for Cause (as defined below) or (ii) by
the Participant due to a Termination for Good Reason (as defined below), in each case within twelve (12) months following a Change of Control, the Board may determine, in its sole discretion, to accelerate the vesting of any unvested
Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, which determination shall be made prior to the Change of Control, and if accelerated, shall be settled in accordance with Section 4.

	 	(c)	“Change of Control” means: 

  

	 	(i)	the consummation of a merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange or similar form of corporate transaction or event (a “Business Combination”) involving the Company, which results in:
(A) the holders of the Company’s voting securities immediately prior to the Business Combination no longer holding at least 60% of the total voting power of (x) the entity resulting from such Business Combination (the

	 	(iii)	the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete dissolution or liquidation of the Company.

provided in the joint prepackaged plan of reorganization of the Company and its debtor affiliates filed on October 24, 2016 (the “Bankruptcy Plan”) and any supplement to the Bankruptcy Plan incorporated prior to
confirmation of the Bankruptcy Plan; and provided, further, none of (a) the facts or circumstances giving rise to the commencement of, or occurring in connection with, any case filed for the Company or its debtor affiliates under
Chapter 11 of the bankruptcy code, (b) the issuance of shares of common stock of the Company reorganized pursuant to the Bankruptcy Plan, or (c) implementation or consummation of any other transaction pursuant to the Bankruptcy Plan
shall constitute a “Change of Control.” 
  

	 	(d)	“Termination for Cause” means termination of the Participant’s employment by the Company (or any of its subsidiaries) by reason of the Participant’s (i) gross negligence in the
performance of his or her duties, (ii) willful failure to perform his or her duties (other than such failure resulting from the Participant’s incapacity due to physical or mental illness) that the Participant fails to remedy to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Company within thirty (30) days after written notice is delivered by the Company to the Participant that sets the basis of the Participant’s failure to perform his or her duties, (iii) willful engagement
in conduct which is, or can reasonably be expected to be, materially injurious to the Company or its subsidiaries (monetarily or otherwise) or (iv) conviction of, or plea of guilty or no contest to, a misdemeanor involving moral turpitude or

	 	(ii)	a move of more than fifty (50) miles in the geographic location at which the Participant must perform services from the location at which the Participant was required to perform services immediately prior to the
date a Change of Control occurs; or

In order for a resignation to be considered a Termination for Good Reason under this Agreement, (w) the event giving rise to Good
Reason must have occurred without the Participant’s consent, (x) the Participant must provide notice to the Company of the existence of one of the above events within thirty (30) days of the initial existence of such condition,
(y) the Company must be provided thirty (30) days from the date of the Participant’s notice to remedy that condition (the “Cure Period”), and (z) the condition must not have been remedied by the Company

	10.	Detrimental Activity. 

  

	 	(a)	Upon delivery of Common Stock in respect of vested Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units, the Participant shall certify in a manner acceptable to the Company that the Participant has not engaged in any Detrimental
Activity (as defined below). 

  

	 	(b)	The Administrator may cancel, rescind, suspend, withhold or otherwise limit or restrict this Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit Award, in whole or in part, at any time if the Participant engages in any Detrimental
Activity. 

  

	 	(c)	In the event a Participant engages in Detrimental Activity after delivery of Common Stock in respect of vested Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units and during any period for which any restrictive covenant
prohibiting such activity is applicable to the Participant, such delivery may be rescinded within one (1) year after the Participant engages in such Detrimental Activity. In the event of any such rescission, the Participant shall pay to the
Company the amount of any gain realized or payment received as a result of the delivery, in such manner and on such terms and conditions as may be required by the Company. The Company shall be entitled to
set-off against the amount of any such gain any amount owed to the Participant by the Company, subject to compliance with Section 409A of the Code, if applicable.

(iii) activity that is discovered to be grounds for or results in the Participant’s Termination for Cause; (iv) the conviction of, or guilty plea entered by, the Participant for any felony or a crime involving moral turpitude whether

	11.	Compliance with Laws, Regulations and Company Policies. The grant and payment of the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to compliance by the Company and the Participant with all
applicable requirements of state and federal laws and regulatory agencies and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange on which the Common Stock may be listed at the time of such issuance or transfer, if applicable. This
Performance-Based Restricted Stock Unit Award shall also be subject to any applicable clawback or recoupment policies, share trading and stock ownership policies of the Company, and other policies that may be implemented by the Board from time to
time. 


  
 -6- 








	12.	Section 409A. Any amounts payable with respect to the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units are intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code in reliance on
the short-term deferral exemption set forth in the final regulations issued thereunder. If any amounts payable with respect to the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units are determined to be subject to Section 409A of the Code, such payments
may only be made under this Agreement upon an event and in a manner permitted by Section 409A of the Code. All payments to be made upon a termination of employment may only be made upon a “separation from service” under
Section 409A of the Code. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each payment shall be treated as a separate payment. In no event may the Participant, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year in which the payments under this
Agreement will be made. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Participant is a “specified employee” as defined by Section 409A of the Code, then if and to the extent required by Section 409A of the
Code, any payment with respect to the Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units upon a separation from service will not be made be made before the date that is six (6) months after the Participant separates from service or such earlier date
permitted by Section 409A of the Code. 

  

	13.	No Right to Continuous Service. Nothing herein alters the at-will nature of the Participant’s employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Nothing in
this Agreement shall be deemed by implication or otherwise to impose any limitation on any right of the Company or any of its Affiliates to terminate the Participant’s Continuous Service at any time.

 1. Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information. In the course of the Participant’s employment with the

secret to the Participant’s attorney and (ii) use the trade secret information in the court proceeding related to such lawsuit, in each case, if the Participant (A) files any document containing such trade secret under seal; and
(B) does not otherwise disclose such trade secret, except pursuant to court order; and 

  

	 	c.	 nothing shall prevent the Participant from lawfully, and without obtaining prior authorization from the Company

 4. Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation. 
  

	 	a.	 In granting the Restricted Stock Unit Award to the Participant, the Company provides the Participant a further

subsidiaries goodwill, the Participant voluntarily agrees to the covenants set forth in this Section 4(a). The Participant agrees and acknowledges that the limitations
and restrictions set forth herein, including the geographical and temporal restrictions on certain activities, are reasonable in all respects and not oppressive and are material and substantial part of the Company’s willingness to enter into
this Agreement, and are intended and necessary to protect the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ Confidential Information, goodwill, and substantial and legitimate business interests. 


 

	 	b.	The Participant agrees that during the Prohibited Period, the Participant shall not, without prior written approval of the Company, directly or indirectly, for the Participant, or on behalf of or in conjunction with any
other person or entity of whatever nature: 

  

	 	i.	engage in or carry on within the Market Area in competition with the Company or any of its subsidiaries in any aspect of the Business, which prohibition shall prevent the Participant from directly or indirectly:
(A) owning, managing, operating, becoming an officer or director of any person or entity engaged in, or planning to engage in, the Business in the Market Area in competition, or anticipated competition, with the Company or any of its
subsidiaries, or (B) in the Market Area, joining, becoming employee or consultant of, or otherwise being affiliated with any person or entity engaged in, or planning to engage in, the Business in the Market Area in competition, or anticipated
competition, with the Company or any of its subsidiaries (in each case, with respect to this clause (B), in any capacity in which the Participant’s duties are the same or similar to those performed for the Company or any of its subsidiaries);


  

	 	ii.	appropriate any Business Opportunity of, or relating to, the Company or any of its subsidiaries located in the Market Area; 

  

	 	iii.	within the Market Area, solicit, canvass, approach, encourage, entice or induce any customer or supplier of the Company or any of its subsidiaries with whom or which the Participant had contact in the last 24 months of
his or her employment with the Company or its subsidiaries or about whom or which the Participant obtained Confidential Information to cease or lessen such customer’s or supplier’s business with the Company or any of its subsidiaries in

 iv 







 6. Specific Performance. Because of the difficulty of measuring economic losses to the Company and its
subsidiaries as a result of a breach of the foregoing covenants, and because of the immediate and irreparable damage that would be caused to the Company and its subsidiaries for which it would have no other adequate remedy, the Participant agrees
that the Company and each of its subsidiaries shall be entitled to enforce the foregoing covenants, in the event of a breach, by injunctions and restraining orders and that such enforcement shall not be the Company’s or its subsidiaries’
exclusive remedy for a breach but instead shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies available to the Company and its subsidiaries, at law and equity. 

7. Severability. The covenants in this Appendix A to the Agreement are severable and separate, and the unenforceability of any specific covenant (or any
portion thereof) shall not affect the provisions of any other covenant (or portion thereof). Moreover, in the event any arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that the scope, time or territorial restrictions set forth are
unreasonable, then it is the intention of the Participant and the Company that such restrictions be enforced to the fullest extent which the arbitrator deems reasonable and this Agreement shall thereby be reformed. 

8. Third-Party Beneficiaries. Each of the Company’s subsidiaries that is not a signatory hereto shall be a third-party beneficiary of the
Participant’s representations, covenants and obligations set forth in this Appendix A and shall be entitled to enforce such representations, covenants and obligations as if a party hereto.
