	VESTING SCHEDULE:

	 	

1. This Stock Unit Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of      (the “Date of Grant”)
between General Cable Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and      (the “Participant”), as a
participant (the “Participant”) in the General Cable Corporation 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), a copy of
which is enclosed herewith. Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Plan.

2. The Participant is granted      restricted stock units with respect to the Common Stock of the Company (the
“Stock Units”). The Stock Units are granted as provided for under the Plan and are subject to the terms and conditions
set forth in the Plan and this Agreement. This grant of Stock Units will vest according to the vesting schedule set
forth above, provided that the performance condition set forth herein has been met.  Specifically, the grant will vest
100% on [DATE] (the “Vesting Date”) if the Company has earned at least $1.00 of cumulative net income during the
vesting period (the “Performance Target”) and the Participant has continued in employment through the Vesting Date, or
as provided in Paragraph 7 or 8 below.  For this purpose, cumulative net income shall mean the Company’s cumulative net
income for the period beginning on the first day of the calendar month following the date of grant through the last day
of the calendar month preceding the Vesting Date (or through the date described in Paragraph 7, if applicable). The
Performance Target shall be calculated at the end of the vesting period by the Vice President, Compensation and
Benefits, with the advice of the Chief Financial Officer of the Company (the “Officers”) and shall be reported to the
Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the Compensation Committee”).  The Performance Target shall
be calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), and the GAAP results shall be
adjusted by the Officers to exclude extraordinary gains or losses in accordance with the methodology that has been
specified by the Compensation Committee for calculation of the Performance Target. No payment shall be made with
respect to the Stock Units unless and until the Compensation Committee shall have certified that the Performance Target
and the requirements of this Agreement have been met (except in the event of a Change in Control as described in
Paragraph 8 below). The Stock Units granted hereunder are a matter of separate inducement and are not in lieu of
salary or other compensation for the Participant’s services.

 

1

 

3. The Stock Units shall be promptly recorded on the books of the Company as Stock Unit awards. When and if the
vesting restrictions, as set forth in the vesting schedule above, terminate, the Participant shall be entitled to a
payment in shares of Common Stock only, one share of Common Stock for each Stock Unit granted hereunder, and the
Participant shall have no rights to the Stock Units until all vesting restrictions terminate. Payment shall be made
within 90 days after the Vesting Date, but not later than March 15 after the end of the calendar year in which the
Stock Units vest, subject to Paragraphs 7, 8 and 13 below.

4. If under Section 12 of the Plan, the Participant shall be entitled to new, additional or different Stock Units,
such new, additional or different Stock Units shall be subject to the vesting and other restrictions as provided in
Paragraphs 5 and 6 below.

5. The Stock Units shall be subject to vesting and other restrictions as provided in this Agreement. Upon the
delivery of shares of Common Stock under this Agreement after vesting, the Participant shall have all the rights of a
shareholder with respect to such shares of Common Stock, including, but not limited to, the right to vote such shares
and to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to them, and all such shares shall be evidenced
by one or more certificates. The Participant shall not be entitled to Dividend Equivalent Rights with respect to the
Stock Units.

6. Stock Units may not be sold, exchanged, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of except by
will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any attempt by the Participant to dispose of any of the Stock Units in
any such manner shall result in the immediate forfeiture of the Stock Units.

7. In the event of the termination of the Participant’s employment, the Participant’s outstanding Stock Units
shall vest or be forfeited, as applicable, in accordance with Section 14 of the Plan; provided, however, that (a) if
the Participant’s employment terminates on account of Disability (as defined below) or death, the Participant’s
unvested Stock Units will fully vest as of the date of the Participant’s termination of employment, or (b) if the
Participant’s employment terminates on account of Retirement (as defined below), and if the Performance Target is met
for the period beginning on the first day of the calendar month following the date of grant through the last day of the
calendar month preceding the Participant’s termination date, a pro rata portion of the Participant’s unvested Stock
Units will vest as of the date of the Participant’s termination of employment. The pro rata portion will be determined
by multiplying the Participant’s unvested Stock Units by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of the
Participant’s completed months of service from the Date of Grant to the termination date and the denominator of which
is 60. For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” shall mean termination of employment (other than for Cause, as
defined in the Plan) after the Participant has attained age 62 and has completed ten years of service with the Company
and its subsidiaries. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean the Participant is, by reason of a
mental or physical impairment, eligible to receive long-term disability benefits under the applicable long-term
disability plan of the Company. Any Stock Units that vest upon termination of employment pursuant to this Paragraph 7
shall be paid within 90 days after the termination date, but not later than March 15 after the end of the calendar year
in which the Stock Units vest, subject to Paragraph 13 below. Any Stock Units that do not vest upon termination of
employment shall be forfeited on the termination date.

 

2

 

8. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, all outstanding Stock Units shall become
fully vested immediately upon the occurrence of the Change in Control of the Company in accordance with Section 13 of
the Plan. Any Stock Units that vest upon a Change in Control pursuant to this Paragraph 8 shall be paid upon or within
60 days after the Change in Control, subject to Paragraph 13 below.

9. Subject to Section 10(c) of the Plan, the Participant shall be entitled to defer receipt of shares of Common
Stock upon the termination of the vesting restrictions applicable to the Stock Units only under the terms of an
agreement with the Company acceptable to the Company under the terms of the General Cable Corporation Deferred
Compensation Plan and applicable law. Further, the Company reserves the right to cause deferral to be made so as to
comply with Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

10. By his or her acceptance of this Agreement, the Participant agrees to reimburse the Company for any taxes
required by any government to be withheld or otherwise deducted and paid by the Company in respect of the Stock Units
or any shares of Common Stock issued to the Participant upon the termination of vesting restrictions related to the
Stock Units. In lieu thereof, the Company shall have the right to withhold the amount of such taxes from any
compensation or other sums due or to become due from the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, to the
Participant, and the Company may withhold such taxes from shares of Common Stock to be delivered pursuant to this
Agreement (up to the minimum required tax withholding amount).

11. The Participant covenants and agrees with the Company that if, with respect to the Stock Units or any shares
of Common Stock delivered to the Participant pursuant to this Agreement, there does not exist a Registration Statement
on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), which Registration Statement shall
have become effective and shall include a prospectus that is current with respect to the Stock Units or shares of
Common Stock subject to this Agreement, (i) that he or she takes the Stock Units or such shares of Common Stock for his
or her own account and not with a view to the resale or distribution thereof, (ii) that any subsequent offer for sale
or sale of any such shares shall be made either pursuant to (x) a Registration Statement on an appropriate form under
the Act, which Registration Statement shall have become effective and shall be current with respect to the shares being
offered and sold, or (y) a specific exemption from the registration requirements of the Act, but in claiming such
exemption, the Participant shall, prior to any offer for sale of such shares, obtain a favorable written opinion from
counsel for or approved by the Company as to the applicability of such exemption and (iii) that the Participant agrees
that the certificates evidencing such shares shall bear a legend to the effect of the foregoing.

12. This Agreement is subject to all terms, conditions, limitations and restrictions contained in the Plan, which
shall be controlling in the event of any conflicting or inconsistent provisions, except as permitted by the Plan. In
the event, however, of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement or the Plan and the provisions of an
employment or change-in-control agreement between the Company and the Participant, the provisions of the latter shall
prevail, to the extent consistent with the Plan.

13. This Agreement is intended to comply with section 409A of the Code or an exemption, and payments may only be
made under this Agreement upon an event and in a manner permitted by section 409A, to the extent applicable.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if required by section 409A, if the Participant is
considered a “specified employee” for purposes of section 409A and if any payment under this Agreement is required to
be delayed for a period of six months after separation from service pursuant to section 409A, such payment shall be
delayed as required by section 409A, and the accumulated payment amounts shall be paid in a lump sum payment within ten
days after the end of the six-month period. If the Participant dies during the postponement period prior to payment,
the amounts withheld on account of section 409A shall be paid to the personal representative of the Participant’s
estate within 60 days after the date of the Participant’s death. Any payments to be made upon a termination of
employment under this Agreement may only be made upon a “separation from service” under section 409A. In no event may
the Executive, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of a payment, except in accordance with section
409A. If payment is to be made upon vesting in the event of a Change in Control and the Change in Control is not a
“change in control event” under section 409A, then the outstanding Stock Units will nevertheless vest on the Change in
Control, but, if required by section 409A, the vested Stock Units will be paid at the earlier of separation from
service or the Vesting Date described in Paragraph 3 above.

14. This Agreement is not a contract of employment and the terms of the Participant’s employment shall not be
affected hereby or by any agreement referred to herein except to the extent specifically so provided herein or therein.
Nothing herein shall be construed to impose any obligation on the Company to continue the Participant’s employment, and
it shall not impose any obligation on the Participant’s part to remain in the employ of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accord with the laws of the Commonwealth of
Kentucky, excluding principles of conflicts of law.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this Agreement as of the date written above.

DEVON ENERGY CORPORATION

2009 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION

AWARD AGREEMENT

     THIS INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION AWARD AGREEMENT (the “Award Agreement”), is entered into as
of %%OPTION_DATE%-% (the “Date of Grant”), by and between Devon Energy Corporation (the “Company”)
and %%FIRST_NAME%-% %%MIDDLE_NAME%-% %%LAST_NAME%-% (the “Participant”);

WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, the Participant is an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliated Entity of
the Company, and it is important to the Company that the Participant be encouraged to remain in the
employ of the Company or a Subsidiary or Affiliated Entity of the Company, as applicable; and

     WHEREAS, in recognition of such facts, the Company desires to provide to the Participant an
incentive stock option to purchase %%TOTAL_SHARES_GRANTED%-% shares of the Common Stock of the
Company (the “Covered Shares”), as hereinafter provided, pursuant to the “Devon Energy Corporation
2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan” (the “Plan”), a copy of which is attached hereto.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth and for good
and valuable consideration, the Participant and the Company hereby agree as follows:

     Section 1. Grant of Incentive Stock Option. The Company hereby grants to the Participant an
incentive stock option intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Code to purchase all or any
part of the Covered Shares (the “Incentive Stock Option”), subject to the terms and conditions of
this Award Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof
for all purposes. The purchase price for each Covered Share to be purchased hereunder shall be the
exercise price set forth on the Cover Page (the “Exercise Price”).

     Section 2. Times of Exercise of Incentive Stock Option.

     (a) The Incentive Stock Option shall become fully vested and exercisable on and after the
vesting date for each installment of Covered Shares as described in the following schedule (the
“Vesting Date”) (but only if the Participant’s Date of Termination has not occurred before the
Vesting Date):

	%%VEST_DATE_PERIOD5%-%

	 	%%SHARES_PERIOD5%-%

 

 

     (b) The Incentive Stock Option shall become fully vested and exercisable upon the occurrence
of a Change of Control Event that occurs prior to the Participant’s Date of Termination.

     (c) If (i) the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs under circumstances in which the
Participant is entitled to a severance payment from the Company, a Subsidiary, or an Affiliated
Entity under (A) the Participant’s employment agreement or severance agreement with the Company due
to a termination of the Participant’s employment by the Company without “cause” or by the
Participant for “good reason” in accordance with the Participant’s employment agreement or
severance agreement or (B) the Devon Energy Corporation Severance Plan and (ii) the Participant
signs and returns to the Company a release of claims against the Company in a form prepared by the
Company (the “Release”) and the Participant does not revoke the Release prior to the date the
Release becomes effective, then the Incentive Stock Option shall become fully vested and
exercisable effective as of the Participant’s Date of Termination. If the Participant fails to
sign and return the Release to the Company or revokes the Release prior to the date the Release
becomes effective, then the unvested portion of the Incentive Stock Option shall be forfeited.

     (d) The Incentive Stock Option shall become fully vested and exercisable upon the
Participant’s Date of Termination if the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs by reason of the
Participant’s death. The Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, elect to vest all or
a portion of the unvested portion of the Incentive Stock Option upon the Participant’s Date of
Termination if the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs by reason of disability, Normal
Retirement Date, Early Retirement Date, or other special circumstances (as determined by the
Committee).

     (e) The Incentive Stock Option may be exercised on or after the Participant’s Date of
Termination only as to that portion of the Covered Shares for which it was exercisable immediately
prior to such Date of Termination, or became exercisable upon the Date of Termination.

     Section 3. Term of Incentive Stock Option. The Incentive Stock Option shall expire and cease
to be exercisable on the earliest to occur of:

     (a) The Expiration Date set forth on the Cover Page.

     (b) If the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs by reason of death, the three-year
anniversary of such Date of Termination.

     (c) If the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs by reason of disability, and Section (d)
below (relating to termination on or after Normal Retirement Date) does not apply, the one-year
anniversary of such Date of Termination.

     (d) If the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs on or after the Participant’s Normal
Retirement Date, the three-year anniversary of such Date of Termination.

     (e) If the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs on or after the Participant’s Early
Retirement Date but prior to the Participant’s Normal Retirement Date, and Section (b) above
(relating to termination because of death) does not apply, the one-year anniversary of such Date of
Termination (or such later date as may be permitted by the Committee).

     (f) If the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs under circumstances in which the
Participant is entitled to a severance payment from the Company, a Subsidiary of the
Company, or an Affiliated Entity under an employment agreement or severance agreement

 

 

with the Company, the last day of the Severance Period. The “Severance Period” shall be the longer of:

(i) the period beginning on the Date of Termination and continuing through the end
of the period during which such severance payments are paid to the Participant; or

(ii) the period described in the following clause (B), if the amount of the
Participant’s severance payment is determined in whole or in part as being equal to
the product of (A) the Participant’s salary rate, multiplied by (B) a period
over which such amount would be computed.

     (g) If the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs and none of Sections (b), (c), (d), (e),
and (f) are applicable, the three month anniversary of such Date of Termination.

The Participant should be aware that exercising an incentive stock option more than three months
after the Date of Termination (one year in the case of termination by reason of certain
disabilities) will generally result in the option being treated as a nonqualified option rather
than an incentive stock option for tax purposes. The Participant should also be aware that if his
or her employment is transferred to a limited liability company that is an Affiliated Entity that
does not satisfy the definition of “company” or “subsidiary” in Section 424 of the Code, the
transfer will be classified as a termination of employment for purposes of the incentive stock
option rules regardless of whether it constitutes a Date of Termination under this Award Agreement.
As a result, the option, if not exercised within three months of such transfer, will be treated as
a nonqualified stock option rather than an incentive stock option for tax purposes. Regardless of
classification of the option for tax purposes, this Award Agreement shall continue in full force
and effect.

     Section 4. Nontransferability of Incentive Stock Option. The Incentive Stock Option shall not
be transferable except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and the Incentive Stock
Option may be exercised during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant. Without
limiting the generality of the previous sentence, the Incentive Stock Option may not be assigned,
transferred (except as provided above), pledged or hypothecated in any way whatsoever, shall not be
assignable by operation of law and shall not be subject to execution, attachment, or similar
process. Any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the
Incentive Stock Option contrary to the provisions hereof shall be null and void and without effect.

     Section 5. Employment. So long as the Participant shall continue to be an employee of the
Company or one or more of the Subsidiaries or Affiliated Entities of the Company, the Incentive
Stock Option shall not be affected by any change of duties or position. Nothing in the Plan or in
this Award Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the employ of the
Company or its Subsidiaries or Affiliated Entities, or interfere in any way with the right to
terminate the Participant’s employment at any time.

     Section 6. Annual Limitation on Exercise of Incentive Stock Options. Except as provided in
Section 2(b) - (d) herein, in no event during any calendar year will the aggregate Fair Market
Value, determined as of the Date of Grant, of the Covered Shares for which the Participant may
first have the right to exercise under the Incentive Stock Option and any other “incentive stock
options” granted under all plans qualified under Section 422 of the
Code which are sponsored by the Company, its parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliated Entities
exceed $100,000.

 

 

     Section 7. Method of Exercising Incentive Stock Option.

     (a) Procedures for Exercise. The Incentive Stock Option may be exercised prior to the
Expiration Date by providing written notice in the form prescribed by the Company to the Secretary
of the Company or following the electronic exercise procedures adopted by the Company. The written
notice shall state the election to exercise the Incentive Stock Option, the number of Covered
Shares to be purchased upon exercise, the form of payment, and shall be signed by the person
exercising the Incentive Stock Option.

     (b) Form of Payment. Payment of the full Exercise Price for the Covered Shares purchased
under this Award Agreement shall accompany the Participant’s notice of exercise, together with full
payment of applicable withholding taxes, if any. Payment shall be made (i) in cash or by check,
draft or money order payable to the order of the Company; (ii) by delivering shares of Common Stock
having a Fair Market Value on the date of payment equal to the amount of the Exercise Price, but
only to the extent such form of payment would not result in a compensation expense to the Company
for financial accounting purposes with respect to the shares of Common Stock used to pay the
Exercise Price unless otherwise determined by the Committee; or (iii) a combination of the
foregoing.

     (c) Further Information. In the event the Incentive Stock Option is exercised, pursuant to
the foregoing provisions of this Section 7, by any person other than the Participant due to the
Participant’s death, such notice shall also be accompanied by appropriate proof of such person’s
right to exercise the Incentive Stock Option. The notice so required shall be given electronically
or by personal delivery to the Secretary of the Company or by registered or certified mail,
addressed to the Company at 20 North Broadway, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73102-8260, and it shall be
deemed to have been given when it is so delivered or when it is so deposited in the United States
mail in an envelope addressed to the Company, as aforesaid, properly stamped for delivery as a
registered or certified letter.

     Section 8. Securities Law Restrictions. The Incentive Stock Option shall be exercised and
Common Stock issued only upon compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”),
and any other applicable securities law, or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. If deemed
necessary by the Company to comply with the Act or any applicable laws or regulations relating to
the sale of securities, the Participant, at the time of exercise and as a condition imposed by the
Company, shall represent, warrant and agree that the Covered Shares subject to the Incentive Stock
Option are being purchased for investment and not with any present intention to resell the same and
without a view to distribution, and the Participant shall, upon the request of the Company, execute
and deliver to the Company an agreement to such effect.

     Section 9. Disqualifying Disposition of Stock. If the Participant shall make a disposition
(within the meaning of Section 424(c) of the Code) of any Covered Shares within one year after the
date of exercise or within two years after the Date of Grant, then in either such event, the
Participant shall promptly notify the Company, by delivery of written notice to the Secretary of
the Company, of (i) the date of disposition, (ii) the number of Covered Shares which were disposed
of and (iii) the price at which such Covered Shares were disposed of or the amount of any other
consideration received on such disposition. The Company may make such provision as it may deem
appropriate for the withholding of any applicable federal, state or local taxes that it determines
it may be obligated to withhold or pay in
connection with the exercise of the Incentive Stock Option or the disposition of Covered
Shares acquired upon exercise of the Incentive Stock Option.

     Section 10. Notices. All notices or other communications relating to the Plan and this Award
Agreement as it relates to the Participant shall be in writing and shall be delivered
electronically, personally or mailed (U.S. Mail) by the Company to the Participant at the then

 

 

current address as maintained by the Company or such other address as the Participant may advise
the Company in writing.

Participant’s employment shall not be considered terminated while the Participant is on a leave of
absence from the Company, a Subsidiary, or an Affiliated Entity approved by the Participant’s
employer pursuant to Company policies. If, as a result of a sale or other transaction, the
Participant’s employer ceases to be either a Subsidiary or an Affiliated Entity and the Participant
is not, at the end of the 30-day period following the transaction, employed by the Company or an
