 2011 PHANTOM SHARES AWARD AGREEMENT 

 

 This AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), effective as of the date indicated on
the Notice of Grant delivered herewith (the “Notice of Grant”), is made and entered into by and between Dean Foods Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the individual named on the Notice of Grant
(“you”). 
 WITNESSETH: 
 WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has adopted and approved the Dean Foods Company 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which Plan was approved as required by the
Company’s stockholders and provides for the grant of stock-based awards to certain selected Employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries (Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in
the Plan); and 
 WHEREAS, during your employment, and based upon your position with the Company and/or its Subsidiaries, you
have acquired and will continue to acquire, by reason of your position, substantial knowledge of the operations and practices of the business of the Company; and 
 WHEREAS, the Committee desires to award phantom shares (the “Phantom Shares”) in accordance with the terms and conditions applicable to Other Stock-Based Awards pursuant to the Plan; and

 WHEREAS, the Company desires to assure that, to the extent and for the period of your service and for a reasonable period
thereafter, it may maintain the confidentiality of its trade secrets and proprietary information, and protect goodwill and other legitimate business interests, each of which could be compromised if any competitive business were to secure your
services; and 
 WHEREAS, the Phantom Shares provided for under the Plan are intended to comply with the requirements of Rule
16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; and 
 WHEREAS, the Committee has selected you to participate in
the Plan and has awarded to you Phantom Shares, described in this Agreement and in the Notice of Grant.



 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants and
agreements herein contained, and as an inducement to you to continue as an employee of the Company (or its Subsidiaries), you and the Company hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Grant of Award. The Company hereby grants to you and you hereby accept, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and in this Agreement, the number of Phantom Shares shown on the
Notice of Grant, effective as of the date indicated on the Notice of Grant (the “Date of Grant”). Each Phantom Share represents the right to receive the cash value of one share of the Company’s Stock, subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in the Plan and in this Agreement. No shares of Stock shall be issuable upon vesting of the Phantom Shares granted to you pursuant to this Agreement. You must accept this Phantom Share Award in the manner designated by the
Company in the Notice of Grant (e.g. electronic acceptance) not later than 90 days after the Date of Grant, or electronic notification of such Grant, whichever occurs later, or this Award will be rendered void and without effect. Subject to the
provisions of Sections 2(c), 2(d), 3(b) and 7 hereof, this Award of Phantom Shares is irrevocable and is intended to conform in all respects with the Plan. 
 2. Vesting. 
 (a) Regular Vesting. Except as otherwise provided in
the Plan or in this Section 2, your Phantom Shares will vest ratably in three (3) equal annual increments commencing on the first anniversary of the Date of Grant. 
 (b) Accelerated Vesting. 
 (1) Unless otherwise determined by the
Committee, or except as provided in an agreement between you and your Employer, if your Service terminates by reason of Death, Disability or Retirement during the Restriction Period, all unvested Phantom Shares you held at the time of such
termination will vest in full at the date of such termination. Payment in respect of your Phantom Shares shall be made as soon as administratively practicable following your date of termination, except that, if you are a specified

employee (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) and your right to receive a payment under this Section 2(b)(1) arises due to your Retirement, then notwithstanding the
foregoing or Section 3(a), such payment shall not be made prior to the six month anniversary of your date of your separation from service. For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” shall be defined as your retirement from
employment or other service to the Company or any Subsidiary after you reach (i) age fifty-five (55), so long as you shall also have completed at least ten (10) years of continuous service immediately prior to your retirement, or
(ii) age sixty-five (65). “Disability” shall be defined as your permanent and total disability (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code). 

(2) In addition to the vesting provisions contained in Sections 2(a), 2(b)(1) and 2(b)(2) above, your Phantom Shares will automatically
and immediately vest in full upon a Change in Control. 
 (c) Forfeiture of Unvested Phantom Shares. Unless otherwise
determined by the Committee, or except as provided in an agreement between you and your Employer, if your Service terminates for any reason other than Death, Disability or Retirement during the Restriction Period, any Phantom Shares you held will be
forfeited and canceled as of the date of such termination of Service. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2, your rights with respect to unvested Phantom Shares shall in all events be immediately forfeited and canceled as
of the date of your termination of Service for Cause as defined in Section 3(b) below. 
 (d) Repayment.
Participant agrees and acknowledges that this Award Agreement is subject to any policies that the Committee may adopt from time to time with respect to the repayment to the Company of any benefit received hereunder, including “clawback”
policies. 
 3. Value; Forfeiture. 
 (a) Payment Upon Vesting. The Company will pay to you (or to your estate in the event of your Death) the cash value of the Shares of Stock represented by the Phantom Shares that vested on such
vesting date as soon as administratively practicable after such vesting date but in no event later than the fifteenth day of the third calendar month beginning after the calendar year in which such Phantom Shares shall have become vested. Such
payment shall be calculated by multiplying the closing sales price of the Stock on the vest date times the number of Phantom Shares vesting on the vest date in accordance with Section 2(a) of this Agreement.



 (b) Forfeiture of Phantom Shares. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement
or the Plan to the contrary, if you are discharged from the employment of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for Cause (as defined below), your rights in your unvested Phantom Shares will be immediately forfeited and canceled as of such
termination date. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” means your (i) willful failure to perform substantially your duties; (ii) willful or serious misconduct that has caused, or could reasonably be expected to result
in, material injury to the business or reputation of an Employer; (iii) conviction of, or entering a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a crime constituting a felony; (iv) breach of any written covenant or agreement with an
Employer, any material written policy of any Employer or any Employer’s code of conduct or code of ethics, or (v) failure to cooperate with an Employer in any internal investigation or administrative, regulatory or judicial proceeding. In
addition, your Service shall be deemed to have terminated for Cause if, after your Service has terminated (for a reason other than Cause), facts and circumstances are discovered that would have justified a termination for Cause. Your Phantom Shares
will also be immediately forfeited and canceled in accordance with Section 7 upon your breach of the provisions set forth in Section 7. 
 (c) Compliance With Law. The Plan, the granting and payment with respect to any Phantom Shares, and any obligations of the Company under the Plan, shall be subject to all applicable federal, state
and foreign country laws, rules and regulations, and to such approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency as may be required. The Company, in its discretion, may postpone the granting and payment with respect to any Phantom Shares, and neither
the Company nor its directors or officers shall have any obligation or liability to you with respect to any Phantom Shares that shall lapse because of such postponement. 
 4. Stockholder Rights. Except as set forth in the Plan, neither you nor any person claiming under or through you shall be, or have any of the rights or privileges of, a stockholder of the Company
in respect of the Phantom Shares. 
 5. Tax Withholding. The Employer shall have the right to deduct from all amounts
paid to you in cash (whether under this Plan or otherwise) any amount required by law to be withheld in respect of Awards under this Plan as may be necessary in the opinion of the Employer to satisfy any applicable tax withholding requirements under
the laws of any country, state, province, city or other jurisdiction, including but not limited to income taxes, capital gains taxes, transfer taxes, and social security contributions that are required by law to be withheld.

to services you provided to the Company in the two year period preceding the termination of your employment, that might involve the use or disclosure of Confidential Information, or that would
involve business opportunities related to Relevant Products. 
 (ii) “Customer” means any and all persons or
entities who purchased any Relevant Product from the Company or any Subsidiary during the term of your employment with the Company or any Subsidiary and as to whom, within the course of the last two (2) years of your employment with the Company

 (iv) “Relevant Market Area” means the counties (or county equivalents) in the United States where the Company
does business that you assist in providing services to and/or receive Confidential Information about in the two year period preceding the termination of your employment so long as the Company continues to do business in that geographic market area
during the Restricted Period. 
 (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) the restrictions of subsection 7(a) above shall
not prohibit your employment with a non-competing, independently operated subsidiary, division, or unit of a diversified company (even if other separately operated portions of the diversified company are involved in Relevant Products) if in advance
of your providing any services, you and the diversified company that is going to employ you both provide the Company with written assurances that are satisfactory to the Company establishing that (a) the entity, subsidiary, division, or unit of
the diversified business that you are going to be employed in is not involved in Relevant Products or preparing to become involved in Relevant Products, and (b) your position will not involve Competing Services of any kind, and (2) you are
not prohibited from owning, either of record or beneficially, not more than five percent (5%) of the shares or other equity of any publicly traded company. Your obligation under this Section 7 shall survive the vesting or forfeiture of
your RSUs and/or the distribution or forfeiture of the underlying Shares. 


 (f) Any breach of any provision of this Section 7 will result in immediate and
complete forfeiture of your unvested Phantom Shares. In addition, you hereby agree that if you violate any provision of this Section 7, the Company will be entitled to injunctive relief, specific performance, or such other legal and equitable
relief as is needed to prevent or enjoin any violation of the provisions of this Agreement in addition to and not to the exclusion of any other remedy that may be allowed by law for damages experienced prior to the issuance of injunctive relief. You
also agree that, if you are found to have breached any of the time-limited covenants in this Section 7, the time period during which you are subject to such covenant shall be extended by one day for each day you are found to have violated such
restriction, up to a maximum of two years. 
 (g) You acknowledge that you have given careful consideration to the restraints
imposed by this Agreement, and you fully agree that they are necessary for the reasonable and proper protection of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The restrictions set forth herein shall be construed as a series of separate and
severable covenants. You agree that each and every restraint imposed by this Agreement is reasonable with respect to subject matter, time period, and geographical area. Except as expressly set forth herein, the restraints imposed by this Agreement
shall continue during their full time periods and throughout the geographical area set forth in this Agreement. 
 (h) You
stipulate and agree that one of the purposes of this Agreement is to fully resolve and bring finality to any concerns over the enforceability of the Restrictive Covenants. You also stipulate and agree that (a) the enforceability of the
Restrictive Covenants and (b) the Company’s agreement herein to provide you with this Phantom Share Award are mutually dependent clauses and obligations without which this Agreement would not be made by the parties. Accordingly, you agree
not to sue otherwise pursue a legal claim to set aside or avoid enforcement of the Restrictive Covenants. And, in the event that you or any other party pursues a legal challenge to the enforceability of any material provision of the restrictions in
Section 7 of this Agreement and a material provision is found unenforceable by a court of law or other legally binding authority such that you are no longer bound by a material provision of Section 7, then (1) your unvested Phantom
Shares shall be forfeited and (2) you hereby agree that you will return to the Company the cash value of any Award paid to you hereunder (less any taxes paid by you). The foregoing is not intended as a liquidated damage remedy but is instead a
return-of-gains and contractual recission remedy due to the mutual dependent nature of the subject provisions in the Agreement.

 (i) If any of the Restrictive Covenants are deemed unenforceable as written, you and the
Company expressly authorize the court to revise, delete, or add to the restrictions contained in this Section 7 to the extent necessary to enforce the intent of the parties and to provide the goodwill, Confidential Information, and other
business interests of the Company and its Subsidiaries with effective protection. And, in the event that such reformation of the restriction is acceptable to the Company, then the forfeiture and rescission (return of gain) remedies provided for in
subsection 7(h) above shall not apply. 
 (j) The provisions of this Section 7 are not intended to override, supercede,
reduce, modify or affect in any manner any other non-competition or non-solicitation agreement between you and the Company or any Subsidiary, and instead are intended to supplement any such agreements. 

8. Plan Incorporated. You accept the Phantom Shares hereby granted subject to all the provisions of the Plan, which, except as
expressly contradicted by the terms hereof, are incorporated into this Agreement, including the provisions that authorize the Committee to administer and interpret the Plan and which provide that the Committee’s decisions, determinations and
interpretations with respect to the Plan are final and conclusive on all persons affected thereby. 
 9. Assignment of
Intellectual Property Rights. In consideration of the granting of this Phantom Share Award, you hereby agree that all right, title and interest to any and all products, improvements or processes (“Intellectual Property”)
whatsoever, discovered, invented or conceived during the course of employment with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, relating to the subject matter of the business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or which may be directly or
indirectly utilized in connection therewith, are vested in the Company, and you hereby forever waive any and all interest you have in such Intellectual Property and agree to assign such Intellectual Property to the Company. In addition, all writings
produced in the course of work or employment for the Company or any Subsidiary are works produced for hire and the property of the Company and its Subsidiaries, including any copyrights for those writings. 

10. Miscellaneous. 
 (a) No Guaranteed Employment. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall affect the right of the Company to terminate your employment at any time, with or without Cause, or shall be deemed to create
any rights to employment on your part. The rights and obligations arising under this Agreement are not intended to and do not affect the employment relationship that otherwise exists between the Company and you, whether such employment relationship
is 


 
at will or defined by an employment contract. Moreover, this Agreement is not intended to and does not amend any existing employment contract between the Company and you. To the extent there is a
conflict between this Agreement and such an employment contract, the employment contract shall govern and take priority. 

(b) Notices. Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of this Agreement shall be addressed to the Company at its
principal executive offices, and any notice to be given to you shall be addressed to you at the address set forth on the attached Notice of Grant, or at such other address for a party as such party may hereafter designate in writing to the other.
Any such notice shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed, postage prepaid, addressed as aforesaid. 
 (c) Binding
Agreement. Subject to the limitations in this Agreement on the transferability by you of the Award granted herein, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the representatives, executors, successors or beneficiaries of
the parties hereto. 
 (d) Governing Law. The interpretation, performance and enforcement of this Agreement
shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware and the United States, as applicable, without reference to the conflict of laws provisions thereof. 
 (e) Severability. Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein in Section 7 above, if any provision of this Agreement is declared or found to be illegal, unenforceable or void, in whole
or in part, then the parties shall be relieved of all obligations arising under such provision, but only to the extent that it is illegal, unenforceable or void, it being the intent and agreement of the parties that this Agreement shall be deemed
amended by modifying such provision to the extent necessary to make it legal and enforceable while preserving its intent or, if that is not possible, by substituting therefor another provision that is legal and enforceable and achieves the same
objectives. 
 (f) Interpretation. All section titles and captions in this Agreement are for convenience only, shall
not be deemed part of this Agreement, and in no way shall define, limit, extend or describe the scope or intent of any provisions of this Agreement. 
 (g) Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise provided for in Section 7 above, this Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all prior agreements and understandings pertaining thereto.

 (h) No Waiver. No failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance of
any covenant, duty, agreement or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute waiver of any such breach or any other covenant, duty, agreement or condition. 

(i) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, all of which together shall constitute one agreement binding
on all the parties hereto, notwithstanding that all such parties are not signatories to the original or the same counterpart.

equity, the Company shall be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief to prevent or enjoin any violation of the provisions of this Agreement.

whatsoever, discovered, invented or conceived during the course of employment with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, relating to the subject matter of the business of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries or which may be directly or indirectly utilized in connection therewith, are vested in the Company, and you hereby forever waive any and all interest you have in such Intellectual Property and agree to assign such Intellectual
Property to the Company. In addition, all writings produced in the course of work or employment for the Company or any Subsidiary are works produced for hire and the property of the Company and its Subsidiaries, including any copyrights for those

 9. Miscellaneous. 
 (a) No Guaranteed Employment. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall affect the right of the Company to terminate your employment at any time, with or without Cause, or shall be deemed to create
any rights to employment on your part. The rights and obligations arising under this Agreement are not intended to and do not affect the employment relationship that otherwise exists between the Company and you, whether such employment relationship
is at will or defined by an employment contract. Moreover, this Agreement is not intended to and does not amend any existing employment contract between the Company and you. To the extent there is a conflict between this Agreement and such an
employment contract, the employment contract shall govern and take priority. 
 (b) Notices. Any notice to be given to
the Company under the terms of this Agreement shall be addressed to the Company at its principal executive offices, and any notice to be given to you shall be addressed to you at the address set forth on the attached Notice of Grant, or at such
other address for a party as such party may hereafter designate in writing to the other. Any such notice shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed, postage prepaid, addressed as aforesaid. 

(c) Binding Agreement. Subject to the limitations in this Agreement on the transferability by you of the Award granted herein,
this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the representatives, executors, successors or beneficiaries of the parties hereto. 
 (d) Governing Law. The interpretation, performance and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware and the United States, as applicable, without
reference to the conflict of laws provisions thereof. 


 (e) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is declared or found to be
illegal, unenforceable or void, in whole or in part, then the parties shall be relieved of all obligations arising under such provision, but only to the extent that it is illegal, unenforceable or void, it being the intent and agreement of the
parties that this Agreement shall be deemed amended by modifying such provision to the extent necessary to make it legal and enforceable while preserving its intent or, if that is not possible, by substituting therefor another provision that is
legal and enforceable and achieves the same objectives. 
 (f) Interpretation. All section titles and captions in this
Agreement are for convenience only, shall not be deemed part of this Agreement, and in no way shall define, limit, extend or describe the scope or intent of any provisions of this Agreement. 

(g) Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter
hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings pertaining thereto. 
 (h) No Waiver. No failure by any
party to insist upon the strict performance of any covenant, duty, agreement or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof shall constitute waiver of any such breach or any other covenant, duty,
agreement or condition. 
 (i) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, all of which together
shall constitute one agreement binding on all the parties hereto, notwithstanding that all such parties are not signatories to the original or the same counterpart. 
 (j) Relief. In addition to all other rights or remedies available at law or in equity, the Company shall be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief to prevent or enjoin any violation of
the provisions of this Agreement.
