FOR EMPLOYEES

     THIS RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of ___, 20___is
entered into between PEERLESS MFG. CO., a Texas corporation (the “Company”), and

meanings assigned to those terms in the Peerless Mfg. Co. 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

     A. Grantee is, or will become within 90 days of the Date of Grant (as defined below), an
employee of the Company or a Subsidiary and has been designated a Participant under the Plan; and

     B. Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, on ___, 20___(“Date of Grant”), Grantee was
granted shares (“Restricted Stock”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $1.00 per share
(“Common Shares”);

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of these premises and the covenants and agreements set forth
in this Agreement, the Company and Grantee agree as follows:

     1. Grant of Restricted Stock. The Company hereby grants to Grantee, effective as of
the Date of Grant, ___shares of Restricted Stock. Certificates evidencing shares of
Restricted Stock, and any certificates for Common Shares issued as dividends on, in exchange of, or
as replacements for, certificates evidencing shares of Restricted Stock, shall bear legends
referring to the restrictions set forth herein and any other restrictive legends as the Company
(upon advice of counsel) may deem necessary or advisable. Until such time as all restrictions have
lapsed and the shares of Restricted Stock have become nonforfeitable, the Company shall retain the
certificates evidencing the same.

     2. Restrictions on Transfer. The shares of Restricted Stock may not be transferred,
sold, pledged, exchanged, assigned or otherwise encumbered or disposed of by Grantee unless and
until they have become nonrestricted and nonforfeitable in accordance with Section 3 hereof;
provided, however, that Grantee’s interest in the shares of Restricted Stock may be
transferred by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any purported transfer, encumbrance
or other disposition of the shares of Restricted Stock that is in violation of this Section 2 shall
be null and void, and the other party to any such purported transaction shall not obtain any rights
to or interest in the shares of Restricted Stock. The shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder
shall be deemed to be subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture within the meaning of Section 83
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time.

 

 

     3. Lapse of Restrictions.

     (a) The shares of Restricted Stock shall become nonrestricted and nonforfeitable to the
extent of ___% of the shares of Restricted Stock on each of the first ___anniversaries of
the Date of Grant, unless earlier forfeited in accordance with Section 4[; provided,
however, that if the Board determines that Grantee has satisfied the management
objectives established by the Board and attached as Appendix A hereto as of the ___
anniversary of the Date of Grant, the shares of Restricted Stock shall become fully vested
and exercisable on the ___anniversary of the Date of Grant].

     (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3(a) above, all shares of Restricted
Stock shall become immediately nonrestricted and nonforfeitable upon the occurrence of a
Change of Control, as defined in the Plan.

     (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3(a) above, all shares of Restricted
Stock shall become immediately nonrestricted and nonforfeitable if Grantee’s employment with
the Company or a Subsidiary ceases because Grantee becomes permanently disabled (as
determined by the Board) or dies.

     4. Forfeiture of Restricted Stock.

     (a) Any of the shares of Restricted Stock that remain forfeitable in accordance with
Section 3 hereof shall be forfeited if Grantee ceases for any reason to be employed by the
Company or a Subsidiary at any time prior to the Restricted Stock becoming nonforfeitable in
accordance with Section 3 hereof, unless the Board determines to provide otherwise at the
time of the cessation of Grantee’s employment. For the purposes of this Agreement, the
Grantee’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary shall not be deemed to have been
interrupted, and Grantee shall not be deemed to have ceased to be an employee of the Company
or a Subsidiary, by reason of (i) the transfer of Grantee’s employment among the Company and
its Subsidiaries, (ii) an approved leave of absence of not more than 90 days, or (iii) the
period of any leave of absence required to be granted by the Company under any law, rule,
regulation or contract applicable to Grantee’s employment with the Company or any
Subsidiary.

     (b) In the event of a forfeiture, the certificate(s) representing shares of Restricted
Stock that have been forfeited shall be cancelled.

     5. Dividend, Voting and Other Rights. Grantee shall have all of the rights of a
shareholder with respect to the shares of Restricted Stock, including the right to vote the shares
of Restricted Stock and receive any cash dividends that may be paid thereon; provided,
however, that any non-cash dividend or other distribution, including any additional Common
Shares that Grantee may become entitled to receive pursuant to a share dividend or other securities
as a result of a merger or reorganization in which the Company is the surviving corporation or any
other change in the capital structure of the Company shall be subject to the same restrictions as
the shares of Restricted Stock and otherwise pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

permitted hereunder or designated to be given with respect to the rights or interests covered by
