 Exhibit 10.7 

ARMSTRONG WORLD INDUSTRIES, INC. 

2011 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN 

PERFORMANCE RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT 

TERMS AND CONDITIONS 
 1. Grant.

(a) Subject to the terms set forth below, Armstrong World Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) has granted to the designated
employee (the “Grantee”) a target award (the “Target Award”) of performance-based restricted stock units (the “Performance Units”) as specified in the 2014 Long-Term Performance Restricted Stock
Unit Grant letter to which these Grant Conditions relate (the “Grant Letter”). The “Date of Grant” is February 25, 2014. The Performance Units are Stock Units that relate to common stock of the
Company (“Company Stock”) and entitle the Grantee to receive a cash bonus payment from the Grantee’s employer subject to the terms set forth below. 

(b) The Performance Units shall be earned, vested and payable if and to the extent that the Return on Invested Capital performance goals
set forth in the Grant Letter (the “Performance Goals”), employment conditions and other terms of these Grant Conditions are met. The “Performance Period” for which the attainment of the Performance Goals will
be measured is the period beginning January 1, 2014 and ending December 31, 2016. 
 (c) These Terms and Conditions (the
“Grant Conditions”) are part of the Grant Letter. This grant is made under the Armstrong World Industries, Inc. 2011 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Any terms not defined herein shall have the
meanings set forth in the Plan.
 2. Vesting. 

(a) The Grantee shall earn and vest in a number of Performance Units based on the attainment of the Performance Goals as of the end of the
Performance Period, provided that the Grantee continues to be employed by the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates (collectively the “Employer”) through December 31, 2016 (the “Vesting Date”).

(b) At the end of the Performance Period, the Management Development and Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) will
determine whether and to what extent the Performance Goals have been met and the amount earned with respect to the Performance Units. The Grantee can earn up to 175% of the Target Award based on attainment of the Performance Goals, as set forth
in the Grant Letter. 
 (c) Except as described below, no Performance Units shall vest prior to the Vesting Date, and if the Performance
Goals are not attained at the end of the Performance Period, the Performance Units shall be immediately forfeited and shall cease to be outstanding. 







 3. Termination of Employment.  

(a) Except as described below, if the Grantee ceases to be employed by the Employer prior to the Vesting Date, the Performance Units shall
be forfeited as of the termination date and shall cease to be outstanding. 
 (b) If, after ten months following the Date of Grant but
prior to the Vesting Date, the Grantee ceases to be employed by the Employer on account of: (i) “55 / 5” Rule Termination (as defined below) or (ii) Involuntary Termination (as defined below), the Grantee shall earn a pro-rated
portion of the outstanding Performance Units based on the extent to which the Performance Goals are achieved, as determined following the end of the Performance Period, provided such vesting does not result in a violation of any age discrimination
or other applicable law. The pro-rated portion shall be determined by multiplying the number of Performance Units earned based on attainment of the Performance Goals by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months that elapsed
during the period beginning on January 1, 2014 through the Grantee’s termination date, and the denominator of which is 36. A partial month after the month of grant shall count as a full month for purposes of this calculation. The
pro-rated earned Performance Units shall be paid as described in Section 6. 
 (c) If the Grantee ceases to be employed by the
Employer prior to the Vesting Date on account of death or Long-Term Disability (as defined below), the Grantee shall earn a pro-rated portion of the outstanding Performance Units based on the extent to which the Performance Goals are achieved, as
determined following the end of the Performance Period. The pro-rated portion shall be determined by multiplying the number of Performance Units earned based on attainment of the Performance Goals by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
number of months that elapsed during the period beginning on January 1, 2014 through the Grantee’s termination date and the denominator of which is 36. A partial month after the month of grant shall count as a full month for purposes
of this calculation. The pro-rated earned Performance Units shall be paid as described in Section 6. 
 4. Change in Control Involuntary
Termination. Subject to Section 14 of the Plan, if the Grantee has an Involuntary Termination upon or within two years after a Change in Control and prior to the Vesting Date, the Grantee’s outstanding Performance Units shall vest
at their Target Award value and shall be paid within 60 days after such Involuntary Termination (subject to applicable withholding for Taxes), notwithstanding Sections 3 and 6 herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section 4, if the Grantee has a change in control agreement in effect with the Company, the terms of the change in control agreement and not the foregoing sentences shall govern the vesting and payment of the Performance Units in the event of
termination of employment upon, after or in connection with a Change in Control, to the extent that such change in control agreement conflicts with the terms of these Grant Conditions. 

5. Definitions. For purposes of these Grant Conditions and the Grant Letter: 

(a) “Cause” shall mean any of the following, as determined in the sole discretion of the Employer: (1) commission of
a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude; (2) fraud, dishonesty, misrepresentation, theft or misappropriation of funds with respect to the Employer; (3) violation of the Employer’s Code of Conduct or employment policies, as in
effect from time to time; (4) breach of any written noncompetition, confidentiality or nonsolicitation covenant of the Grantee with respect to the Employer; or (5) gross negligence or misconduct in the performance of the
Grantee’s duties with the Employer. 







 (b) “Involuntary Termination” shall mean the Employer’s termination of
the Grantee’s employment other than for Cause.
 (c) “Long-Term Disability” shall mean the Grantee is receiving
long-term disability benefits under the Employer’s long-term disability plan. 
 (d) “”55 / 5” Rule
Termination” shall mean the Grantee’s termination of employment other than for Cause after the Grantee has attained age 55 and has completed five years of service with the Employer. 

6. Payment. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Section 4 above, at the end of the Performance Period, if the Committee certifies
that the Performance Goals and other conditions to payment of the Performance Units have been met, the Company shall cause the Grantee’s employer to make a cash payment to the Grantee, payable in local currency equal, to the Fair Market Value
of the shares of Company Stock underlying the vested Performance Units (rounded up to the nearest whole share), subject to applicable withholding for Taxes. The Fair Market Value of the shares shall be determined as of the date immediately
before the payment date. Payment shall be made within 60 days after the applicable vesting date. 
 7. Dividend Equivalents. Dividend
Equivalents shall accrue with respect to Performance Units and shall be payable subject to the same vesting terms and other conditions as the Performance Units to which they relate. Dividend Equivalents shall be credited on the Performance
Units when dividends are declared on shares of Company Stock from the Date of Grant until the payment date for the vested Performance Units. The Company will keep records of Dividend Equivalents in a non-interest bearing cash account for the
Grantee. No interest will be credited to any such account. Vested Dividend Equivalents shall be paid in cash at the same time and subject to the same terms as the underlying vested Performance Units. If and to the extent that the
underlying Performance Units are forfeited, all related Dividend Equivalents shall also be forfeited.
 8. No Shareholder Rights. No shares
of Company Stock shall be issued to the Grantee with respect to the Performance Units, and the Grantee shall not be, nor have any of the rights or privileges of, a shareholder of the Company with respect to any Performance Units. 

9. No Right to Continued Employment. The grant of Performance Units shall not confer upon the Grantee any right to continued employment with
the Employer or interfere with the right of the Employer to terminate the Grantee’s employment at any time. 
 10. Incorporation of Plan by
Reference. The Grant Letter and these Grant Conditions are made pursuant to the terms of the Plan, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference, and shall in all respects be interpreted in accordance therewith. The decisions of
the Committee shall be conclusive upon any question arising hereunder. The Grantee’s receipt of the Performance Units constitutes the Grantee’s acknowledgment that all decisions and determinations of the Committee with respect to the Plan,
the Grant Letter, these Grant Conditions, and the Performance Units shall be final and binding on the Grantee and any other person claiming an interest in the Performance Units.  







 11. Withholding Taxes. 

(a) The Employer shall have the right, and the Grantee hereby authorizes the Employer, to deduct from all payments made hereunder and from
other compensation an amount equal to the federal (including FICA), state, local and foreign taxes, social insurance, payroll tax, contributions, payment on account obligations or other amounts required by law to be collected, withheld or accounted
for with respect to the Performance Units (the “Taxes”). 
 (b) Regardless of any action the Employer takes with
respect to any such Taxes, the Grantee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all such Taxes legally due by the Grantee is and remains the Grantee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Employer. The
Grantee further acknowledges that the Employer (i) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Taxes in connection with any aspect of the Performance Units, including the grant, vesting or settlement of the
Performance Units and the receipt of any Dividend Equivalents; and (ii) does not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Performance Units to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s liability for Taxes. Further, if
the Grantee has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the date of grant and the date of any relevant taxable event, the Grantee acknowledges that the Employer (or the Grantee’s former employer, as applicable) may be
required to collect, withhold or account for Taxes in more than one jurisdiction. 
 12. Company Policies. All amounts payable under the
Grant Letter and these Grant Conditions shall be subject to any applicable clawback or recoupment policies, share trading policies and other policies that may be implemented by the Company’s Board of Directors from time to time.

13. Assignment. The Grant Letter and these Grant Conditions shall bind and inure to the benefit of the successors and assignees of the
Company. The Grantee may not sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of the Performance Units, except to a successor grantee in the event of the Grantee’s death. 

14. Section 409A. The Grant Letter and these Grant Conditions are intended to comply with section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code or
an exemption, consistent with Section 20(h) of the Plan. 
 15. Governing Law. The validity, construction, interpretation and effect
of the Grant Letter and these Grant Conditions shall be governed by, and determined in accordance with, the applicable laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, excluding any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle. 

16. No Entitlement or Claims for Compensation. In connection with the acceptance of the grant of the Performance Units under the Grant Letter
and these Grant Conditions, the Grantee acknowledges the following: 







 (a) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, the grant of the Performance Units
under the Plan is made at the discretion of the Committee and the Plan may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time; 

(b) the grant of the Performance Units under the Plan is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to
receive future grants of Performance Units, or benefits in lieu of them, even if Performance Units have been granted repeatedly in the past;

(c) all decisions with respect to future grants of Performance Units, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Committee; 

(d) the Grantee is voluntarily participating in the Plan; 

(e) the Performance Units and any payments thereunder are extraordinary items that do not constitute compensation of any kind for services
of any kind rendered to the Employer (including, as applicable, the Grantee’s employer) and which are outside the scope of the Grantee’s employment contract, if any; 

(f) the Performance Units and any payments thereunder are not to be considered part of the Grantee’s normal or expected compensation
or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, payment in lieu of notice, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or
similar payments; 
 (g) the Performance Units and payments thereunder are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;

 (h) the grant of Performance Units and the Grantee’s participation in the Plan will not be interpreted to form an employment
contract or relationship with the Employer; 
 (i) the future value of the underlying shares of Company Stock is unknown and cannot be
predicted with certainty. The Grantee understands that the Company is not responsible for any foreign exchange fluctuation between the United States Dollar and the Grantee’s local currency that may affect the value of the Performance
Units; and 
 (j) the Grantee shall have no rights, claim or entitlement to compensation or damages as a result of the Grantee’s
cessation of employment (for any reason whatsoever, whether or not in breach of contract or local labor law or the terms of the Grantee’s employment agreement, if any), insofar as these rights, claim or entitlement arise or may arise from the
Grantee’s ceasing to have rights under or be entitled to receive payment under or ceasing to have the opportunity to participate in the Plan as a result of such cessation or loss or diminution in value of the Performance Units as a result of
such cessation, and the Grantee irrevocably releases the Employer from any such rights, entitlement or claim that may arise. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such right or claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have
arisen, then the Grantee shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived the Grantee’s entitlement to pursue such rights or claim.
