 Pursuant to the UMB Financial Corporation 2016 Long-Term Incentive
Compensation Program (the “Program”) established under the UMB Financial Corporation Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), UMB Financial Corporation (the “Company”) hereby grants to
[INSERT NAME], as a Participant in the Program (“You” or, as a possessive, “Your”),                      shares of
Performance-Based Restricted Stock, as indicated in the “Notification of Grant Award” from Merrill Lynch Equity Award Services, with a Grant Date of
                    , 2016 (the “Notification”). This Stock Award is effective only upon the electronic acknowledgement and
acceptance of the Stock Award by You and are subject to all of the terms and conditions of this 2016 Performance-Based Restricted Stock Award Agreement (the “Agreement”), the Plan, and the Program (collectively, the
“Restricted Stock Documentation”). The Plan and the Program are incorporated in their entirety here by this reference. The Restricted Stock Documentation may be viewed, printed, and accepted by You through the website
www.benefits.ml.com and are agreed to by You. Without limiting any other provision herein, You expressly acknowledge that Section 7 of the Program and other provisions of the Restricted Stock Documentation authorize the Compensation Committee
and the Company, under the circumstances stated therein, to “claw back” or otherwise reclaim or recover all or a portion of the Restricted Stock referenced in this Agreement or its cash equivalent. Each term used but not otherwise defined
in this Agreement has the meaning set forth in the Program or, if not defined there, in the Plan. 
 1.
Performance-Based Restricted Stock 
 a) Dividends and Distributions on Performance-Based Restricted Stock. Any
cash dividends or distributions on unvested Performance-Based Restricted Stock will be used to purchase additional shares of Company Stock pursuant to the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan, and any Company Stock so purchased will be subject
to the same rights, restrictions, and provisions applicable to the Performance-Based Restricted Stock upon which such cash dividends or distributions were paid. 

b) Performance-Based Restricted Stock Vesting Schedule. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Restricted Stock Documentation,
including the satisfaction (in whole or in part) of the Performance Standard as provided in the Program, You will become 100% vested in the shares of Performance-Based Restricted Stock upon Your completion of Continuous Service for the period of
time beginning on the Grant Date and continuing until the conclusion of the Performance Period (such date of conclusion, the “Vesting Date”). Prior to the Vesting Date, You will not be vested in any shares of the Performance-Based
Restricted Stock. 







 c) Termination of Continuous Service. If Your Continuous Service terminates for any reason
other than Your death, Disability, or Qualified Retirement, the Company shall automatically reacquire, with no further action and for no additional consideration, and You shall be deemed to have waived and released any right or interest that You may
then have in, all shares of Performance-Based Restricted Stock that have not vested under the Restricted Stock Documentation as of the date of termination. If Your Continuous Service terminates due to Your death, Disability, or Qualified Retirement,
all or a portion of Your unvested shares of Performance-Based Restricted Stock may vest on the terms and conditions described in Section 5 of the Program. But to the extent that any shares of Performance-Based Restricted Stock do not vest as
described in Section 5 of the Program, the Company shall automatically reacquire, with no further action and for no additional consideration, and You shall be deemed to have waived and released any right or interest that You may then have in,
those unvested shares of Performance-Based Restricted Stock. 
 d) Failure to Achieve the Performance Standard. Despite Your
completion of the requisite Continuous Service described in this Section 1, to the extent that the Performance Standard is not achieved as described in Section 6 of the Program and all or a portion of Your shares of Performance-Based
Restricted Stock are consequently not earned, the Company shall automatically reacquire, with no further action and for no additional consideration, and You shall be deemed to have waived and released any right or interest that You may then have in,
all of those unearned shares of Performance-Based Restricted Stock. 
 2. Additional Terms 

a) Non-Transferability. Your Restricted Stock shall not be transferable other than by the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant
to a qualified domestic relations order. Any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of Your Restricted Stock during the time that it is restricted and the levy of any execution, attachment or similar process upon
Restricted Stock while it is restricted shall be null and void and without effect. 
 b) Restricted Period. The Restricted Period for
Restricted Stock under this Agreement and the related Restricted Stock Documentation will end once You have earned and become vested in the Restricted Stock. You expressly acknowledge, however, that applicable law and policies of the Company may
impose other restrictions or limitations on Company Stock that you own or hold. 
 c) No Waiver. No waiver of any breach or condition
of any of the Restricted Stock Documentation will effect a waiver of any subsequent or other breach or condition, whether similar or dissimilar. No failure to exercise or delay in exercising any right or remedy under any of the Restricted Stock
Documentation will effect a waiver of that right or remedy. No single or partial exercise of any right or remedy under any of the Restricted Stock Documentation will preclude any other or further exercise of that right or remedy or any other right
or remedy. Except as otherwise expressly provided, the rights and remedies under the Restricted Stock Documentation are cumulative and not exclusive or exhaustive.

 d) No Employment Contract. Nothing in the Restricted Stock Documentation or the grant of
any Restricted Stock shall confer on You any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any Affiliate or affect in any way the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate Your employment at any time. Except to the extent that the terms
of any written employment contract between the Company and You may expressly provide otherwise, the Company and its Affiliates shall be under no obligation to continue Your employment for any period of specific duration and may terminate Your
employment at any time, with or without cause, free from any liability or any claim under the Restricted Stock Documentation or otherwise. 

e) Notices. Any notice to the Company under the Restricted Stock Documentation must be in writing and addressed to the Company in care
of its Secretary at 1010 Grand Boulevard, Kansas City, Missouri 64106. Any notice to You under the Restricted Stock Documentation must be in writing and addressed to You at the address last known and on file with the Company. Notices must be

receipt requested, upon delivery; and (iv) by first-class U.S. mail, postage prepaid, three (3) calendar days following delivery to the United States Postal Service. 

f) Construction. This Agreement and the Stock Award are made and granted pursuant to the Restricted Stock Documentation and are in all
respects limited by and subject to the express terms and provisions of the Restricted Stock Documentation. 
 g) General. The Company
shall pay all original issue and transfer taxes with respect to the issue and transfer of shares pursuant hereto and all other fees and expenses necessarily incurred by the Company in connection therewith.
