EXHIBIT 10.1

AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     This
AGREEMENT is entered into as of March 31, 2006 (the “Effective Date”), by and
between MASTEC, INC. (the “Company”) and C. ROBERT CAMPBELL (the “Employee”).

     WHEREAS, the Company and Employee entered into that certain Employment Agreement dated October
12, 2004 (the “Agreement”);

     WHEREAS, the Company and Employee desire to amend the Agreement in order to comply with the
recently promulgated deferred compensation rules.

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises contained herein and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties
agree as follows:

     1. A new paragraph p is hereby added to Section 12 of the Agreement to read as follows:

          “p. Compliance with Section 409A: To the extent the Employee would otherwise be
entitled to any payment (whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise) during the six months
beginning on termination of employment, that would be subject to the additional tax imposed under
Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”), (i) the payment will not be made and (ii) the payment,
with interest at the rate being paid by the Company on its senior credit facility (the “Senior
Credit Interest Rate”) determined as of the date of termination of the Employee’s employment, will
be paid to the Employee on the earlier of the six-month anniversary of the Employee’s date of
termination of employment or the Employee’s death or disability (within the meaning of Section
409A). Similarly, to the extent the Employee otherwise would be entitled to any benefit (other
than a payment) during the six months beginning on termination of employment that would be subject
to the Section 409A additional tax, the benefit will be delayed and will begin being provided
(together, if applicable, with an adjustment to compensate the Employee for the delay) on the
earlier of the six-month anniversary of the date of termination, death or disability (within the
meaning of Section 409A). It is the Company’s intention that the benefits and rights to which the
Employee could become entitled in connection with termination of employment comply with Section
409A. If the Employee or the Company believes, at any time, that any of such benefit or right does
not comply, it will promptly advise the other and will negotiate reasonably and in good faith to
amend the terms of such arrangement such that it complies.”

     2. In all other respects, the Agreement shall remain unchanged by this Amendment.

EXHIBIT 10.3

MASTEC, INC.

DEFERRED BONUS AGREEMENT FOR JOSE MAS

     THIS AGREEMENT, made and entered into as of this 3rd day of April, 2006, by and between
MASTEC, INC., a Florida corporation, with principal offices and place of business in the State of
Florida (the “Corporation”), and Jose Mas, an individual residing in the State of Florida (the
“Employee”),

     WITNESSETH THAT:

     WHEREAS, the Employee is employed by the Corporation; and

     WHEREAS, the Corporation recognizes the value of the services performed by the Employee and
wishes to encourage his continued employment; and

     WHEREAS, the Employee wishes to be assured that he will be entitled to a certain deferred
bonus; and

     WHEREAS, the parties hereto wish to provide the terms and conditions upon which the
Corporation shall pay such deferred bonus to the Employee; and

     WHEREAS, the parties hereto intend that this Agreement be considered an unfunded arrangement,
maintained primarily to provide deferred compensation benefits for the Employee, a member of a
select group of management or highly compensated employees of the Corporation, for purposes of the
Employee Retirement Security Act of 1974, as amended;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual promises herein contained,
the parties hereto agree as follows:

     1. Deferred Bonus.

          a. Eligibility for Benefit. As of March 11, 2005, the Corporation and the Employee
entered into a Split-Dollar Agreement (the “Split-Dollar Agreement”). The

 

 

Employee shall be entitled to receive the Deferred Bonus provided hereunder from the Corporation in
the event that the Split-Dollar Agreement is terminated as a result of a Change of Control in the
Corporation. For purposes hereof, a Change in Control shall occur on the date of a change in
control, within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, due
to (i) one person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquiring ownership of stock of the
Corporation constituting more than 50% of the total fair market value or total voting power of such
stock, or (ii) a majority of the Corporation’s board of directors being replaced during any
12-month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the
Corporation’s board of directors prior to the date of such appointment or election.

          b. Amount of Deferred Bonus. The amount of the Deferred Bonus to be provided by the
Corporation to the Employee under this Section 1 shall be an amount equal to the sum of the total
amount of the premium payments made by the Corporation under the terms of the Split-Dollar
Agreement, plus 4%, compounded annually.

          c. Payment of Deferred Bonus. On or as soon as administratively practicable after the
date upon which the Employee becomes entitled to the Deferred Bonus as provided above, but in no
event later than 60 days after such date, the Corporation shall pay to the Employee an amount equal
to the Deferred Bonus, subject to usual withholding taxes.

          d. No Trust Created. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 1, no action taken
pursuant to its provisions by either the Corporation or the Employee shall create, or be construed
to create, a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship between the Corporation and the
Employee, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or any other person.

-2-

 

          e. Deferred Bonus Unfunded. Until the occurrence of any event which entitles the
Employee to receive the Deferred Bonus provided under this Section 1, such benefit shall remain an
asset of the Corporation which, in the event of the Corporation’s insolvency, will be subject to
the claims of general creditors of the Corporation. The parties intend this Deferred Bonus to be
considered unfunded for federal income tax purposes, so as not to have the benefit provided
hereunder be included in the Employee’s income for such tax purposes prior to actual receipt
thereof.

          f. Benefit Not Transferable. Neither the Employee, his beneficiary or beneficiaries,
nor any other person with a beneficial interest in this Agreement shall have any power or right to
transfer, assign, anticipate, hypothecate or otherwise encumber any part or all of this Deferred
Bonus. No such amounts shall be subject to seizure by any creditor or any such beneficiary, by a
proceeding at law or in equity, nor shall such amounts be transferable by operation of law in the
event of bankruptcy, insolvency or death of the Employee, his beneficiary or beneficiaries, or any
other person with a beneficial interest in this Agreement. Any such attempt at assignment or
transfer shall be void.

     2. Named Fiduciary, Determination of Benefits, Claims Procedure and Administration.

          a. Named Fiduciary. The Corporation is hereby designated as the named fiduciary under
this Agreement. The named fiduciary shall have authority to control and manage the operation and
administration of this Agreement, and it shall be responsible for establishing and carrying out a
funding policy and method consistent with the objectives of this Agreement.

-3-

 

          b. Claim. A Participant, beneficiary or other person who believes that he or she is
being denied a benefit to which he or she is entitled (hereinafter referred to as “Claimant”), or
his or her duly authorized representative, may file a written request for such benefit with the
President of the Corporation (the “First Level Reviewer”) setting forth his or her claim. Such
claim must be addressed to the President of the Corporation, at its then principal place of
business.

          c. Claim Decision. Upon receipt of a claim, the First Level Reviewer shall advise the
Claimant that a reply will be forthcoming within a reasonable period of time, but ordinarily not
later than ninety (90) days, and shall, in fact, deliver such reply within such period. However,
the First Level Reviewer may extend the reply period for an additional ninety (90) days for
reasonable cause. If the reply period will be extended, the First Level Reviewer shall advise the
Claimant in writing during the initial ninety (90) day period indicating the special circumstances
requiring an extension and the date by which the First Level Reviewer expects to render the benefit
determination.

               If the claim is denied in whole or in part, the First Level Reviewer will render a written
opinion, using language calculated to be understood by the Claimant, setting forth:

               (1) the specific reason or reasons for the denial;

               (2) the specific references to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based;

               (3) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to
perfect the claim and an explanation as to why such material or such information is necessary;

-4-

 

               (4) appropriate information as to the steps to be taken if the Claimant wishes to submit the
claim for review, including a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under
Section 502(a) of ERISA following an adverse benefit determination on review; and

               (5) the time limits for requesting a review of the denial under subparagraph c hereof and for
the actual review of the denial under subparagraph d hereof.

          d. Request for Review. Within sixty (60) days after the receipt by the Claimant of
the written opinion described above, the Claimant may request in writing that the Secretary of the
Corporation ( the “Second Level Reviewer”) review the First Level Reviewer’s prior determination.
Such request must be addressed to the Secretary of the Corporation, at its then principal place of
business. The Claimant or his or her duly authorized representative may submit written comments,
documents, records or other information relating to the denied claim, which such information shall
be considered in the review under this subsection without regard to whether such information was
submitted or considered in the initial benefit determination.

               The Claimant or his or her duly authorized representative shall be provided, upon request and
free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other information
which (i) was relied upon by the First Level Reviewer in making its initial claims decision, (ii)
was submitted, considered or generated in the course of the First Level Reviewer making its initial
claims decision, without regard to whether such instrument was actually relied upon by the First
Level Reviewer in making its decision or (iii) demonstrates compliance by the First Level Reviewer
with its administrative processes and safeguards designed to ensure and to verify that benefit
claims determinations are made in accordance with this Agreement and that, where appropriate, the
provisions of this Agreement have been applied

-5-

 

consistently with respect to similarly situated claimants. If the Claimant does not request a
review of the First Level Reviewer’s determination within such sixty (60) day period, he or she
shall be barred and estopped from challenging such determination.

          e. Review of Decision. Within a reasonable period of time, ordinarily not later than
sixty (60) days, after the Second Level Reviewer’s receipt of a request for review, it will review
the First Level Reviewer’s prior determination. If special circumstances require that the sixty
(60) day time period be extended, the Second Level Reviewer will so notify the Claimant within the
initial sixty (60) day period indicating the special circumstances requiring an extension and the
date by which the Second Level Reviewer expects to render its decision on review, which shall be as
soon as possible but not later than 120 days after receipt of the request for review. In the event
that the Second Level Reviewer extends the determination period on review due to a Claimant’s
failure to submit information necessary to decide a claim, the period for making the benefit
determination on review shall not take into account the period beginning on the date on which
notification of extension is sent to the Claimant and ending on the date on which the Claimant
responds to the request for additional information.

               The Second Level Reviewer has discretionary authority to determine a Claimant’s eligibility
for benefits and to interpret the terms of this Agreement. Benefits under this Agreement will be
paid only if the Second Level Reviewer decides in its discretion that the Claimant is entitled to
such benefits. The decision of the Second Level Reviewer shall be final and non-reviewable, unless
found to be arbitrary and capricious by a court of competent review. Such decision will be binding
upon the Employer and the Claimant.

               If the Second Level Reviewer makes an adverse benefit determination on review, the Second
Level Reviewer will render a written opinion, using language calculated to be

-6-

 

understood by the Claimant, setting forth:

               (1) the specific reason or reasons for the denial;

               (2) the specific references to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based;

               (3) a statement that the Claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge,
reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records and other information which (i) was
relied upon by the Second Level Reviewer in making its decision, (ii) was submitted, considered or
generated in the course of the Second Level Reviewer making its decision, without regard to whether
such instrument was actually relied upon by the Second Level Reviewer in making its decision or
(iii) demonstrates compliance by the Second Level Reviewer with its administrative processes and
safeguards designed to ensure and to verify that benefit claims determinations are made in
accordance with governing Plan documents, and that, where appropriate, the Plan provisions have
been applied consistently with respect to similarly situated claimants; and

               (4) a statement of the Claimant’s right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA
following the adverse benefit determination on such review.

     3. Miscellaneous

          a. No Contract of Employment. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to be a
contract of employment for any term of years, nor as conferring upon the Employee the right to
continue in the employ of the Corporation in any capacity.

-7-

 

          b. Amendment of Agreement. This Agreement may not be amended, altered or modified,
except by a written instrument signed by the parties hereto, or their respective successors or
assigns, and may not be otherwise terminated except as provided herein.

          c. Notice. Any notice, consent, or demand required or permitted to be given under the
provision of this Agreement shall be in writing, and shall be signed by the party giving or making
the same. If such notice, consent, or demand is mailed to a party hereto, it shall be sent by
United States certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed to such party’s last known address as
shown on the records of the Company. The date of such mailing shall be deemed the date of notice,
consent, or demand. Either party may change the address to which notice is to be sent by giving
notice of the change of address in the manner aforesaid.

          d. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Florida and any applicable federal laws.

          e. Gender, Singular and Plural. All pronouns and any variations thereof shall be
deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, as the identity of the person or persons may
require. As the context may require, the singular may be read as the plural and the plural as the
singular.

          f. Inurement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
Corporation and its successors and assigns, and the Employee, his successors, heirs, executors,
administrators and beneficiaries.

          g. Captions. The captions of the sections and paragraphs of this Agreement are for
convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any of its
provisions.

          h. Validity. In the event any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, void, or
unenforceable, the same shall not affect, in any respect whatsoever, the validity of any other
provision of this Agreement.

Agreement, in duplicate, as of the day and year first above written.
