Exhibit C  of the original Lease is hereby amended to provide that Tenant’s Proportionate Share shall be equal to (i) forty-two and five hundred eighty-nine thousandths percent (42.589%) on the Phase 1 Commencement Date and (ii) fifty-four and two hundred eighteen thousandths percent (54.218%) on the Phase 2 Commencement Date.

(b)Effective as of the FECD (or earlier in case of early occupancy of the First Expansion Premises), Tenant’s Proportionate Share as set forth in the Lease shall be eighty and six hundred twenty thousandths percent (80.620%) for all purposes under the Lease.  

(c)Effective as of the SECD, Tenant’s Proportionate Share as set forth in the Lease shall be 100% for all purposes under the Lease.

5.Tenant Work; Allowances, As Is.  

(a)Exhibit D to the original Lease provides that the Contractor for the Tenant Work shall be Harvey Cleary.  Exhibit D is hereby amended to provide that Landlord will bid the construction of the Tenant Work for the Phase 1 Premises and the Phase 2 Premises to three separate general contractors, namely:   Harvey Cleary, Trimbuilt, and Burt Watts.  Tenant and Landlord will work together to mutually agree upon the Contractor.  If they are unable to agree, Landlord shall select the qualified contractor with the lowest bid as the “Contractor” for constructing the Tenant Work in the Phase 1 Premises and the Phase 2 Premises.  Landlord and Tenant will later bid the Tenant Work for the remainder of the Premises to three (3) mutually agreeable contractors to be the “Contractor” for such Tenant Work.    The last paragraph of Article V to Exhibit D to the Lease is hereby deleted.    There will be no construction of the Tenant Work by such Contractor during construction of the Building Shell, except as expressly set forth herein. The Phase 1 Premises will be made available to the Contractor for construction of Tenant Work upon receipt of a certificate of occupancy or Certificate of Compliance (temporary to be sufficient) for the Building Shell (the “Landlord Delivery Date”).  Landlord shall notify Tenant sixty (60) days in advance of the date Landlord anticipates will be the Landlord Delivery Date (the “Landlord Anticipated Delivery Notice”).  Following such notice, and subject to obtaining all necessary governmental approvals, the issuance of which Landlord and Tenant each agree to diligently pursue, and subject to the approval of Landlord and the contractor for the Building Shell, 

which shall not be unreasonably withheld, Tenant may request that  Landlord cause the Contractor to commence construction of the Tenant Work within the Phase 1 Premises.  If Tenant does not make such election, the Phase 1 Commencement Date shall be October 1, 2015, unless the Landlord Delivery Date has not then occurred, in which case the Phase 1 Commencement Date shall be the Landlord Delivery Date.  If Tenant does elect for such early access, the Phase 1 Commencement Date shall be the later of (i) October 1, 2015, or (ii) 60 days following the date of Landlord’s Anticipated Delivery Notice, and the lease termination right set forth in Section 8.1 of Exhibit D to the Lease for delivery not occurring by February 16, 2016 shall be of no further force and effect.

(b)On the FECD, the First Expansion Premises (including the Tenant Work therein) shall be delivered to Tenant, and Tenant shall accept the same, in its condition as of the FECD.  On the SECD, the Second Expansion Premises (including the Tenant Work therein) shall be delivered to Tenant, and Tenant shall accept the same, in its condition as of the SECD.

(c)Tenant acknowledges that no representations as to the repair of the First Expansion Premises, Second Expansion Premises or the Project, nor promises to alter, remodel, or improve the First Expansion Premises, the Second Expansion Premises have been made by Landlord, except as expressly set forth in this Lease.  

(d)Landlord shall construct Tenant Work in the First Expansion Premises and the Second Expansion Premises, all in accordance with Exhibit D attached to the original Lease; provided, that the following shall be applicable to the Tenant Work in the First Expansion Premises and the Second Expansion Premises:  (i) the Space Plan shall be due within ninety (90) days of the Effective Date of this Amendment, (ii) the Allowance under this Amendment shall be $45.00 per square foot of Rentable Area in the First Expansion Premises and the Second Expansion Premises and (iii) the provisions of Section 8.1 shall not apply to the Tenant Work in the First Expansion Premises and the Second Expansion Premises.  Also, if Tenant elects to build out any portion of the second (2nd) floor prior to the SECD, the cost of the required multi-tenant corridor shall be deducted from the Allowance.

6.Right of First Refusal.  Section 2 of Exhibit J to the Lease is hereby deleted in its entirety.   

7.Renewal Option.  The Renewal Option contained in Section 1 of Exhibit J to the Lease, including all conditions of exercise, shall be applicable to the Premises (except the Renewal Term shall be equal to one (1) additional period of ten (10) years), as expanded by the First Expansion Premises and the Second Expansion Premises, exercisable at the end of the Term, as extended by this Amendment. 

8.Construction of Tenant Work in the Premises.  The fourth from the final sentence and third from the final sentence of Section 8.1 of Exhibit D to the original Lease are hereby deleted 

in their entirety and replaced with the following (with the remaining portions of Section 8.1 remaining the same):

 “Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Landlord has not delivered the Landlord Anticipated Delivery Notice until after August 2, 2015 (such date to be extended for each day of force majeure delay, [but not including Landlord’s inability to obtain a certificate of occupancy or Certificate of Compliance, unless such inability is related to a Tenant Delay] or Tenant Delay), then Landlord shall be liable, as Tenant’s sole and exclusive remedy, for a day-for-day abatement of Base Rent and Operating Expenses with respect to all of the Phase 1 Premises.  If the Landlord Delivery Date has not occurred by February 16, 2016 (such date to be extended for each day of force majeure delay [but not including Landlord’s inability to obtain a certificate of occupancy or Certificate of Compliance, unless such inability is related to a Tenant Delay]or Tenant Delay), then Tenant shall have the right to terminate this Lease within ten (10) days of such date.”
9.Parking.  Tenant shall, upon each of the FECD and the SECD, have Parking Permits for such space at a ratio of 4.39 permits per 1,000 square feet of Rentable Area in the applicable Expansion Premises (subject to reduction on a space for space basis due to Tenant’s covered parking requirements).  Additionally, Section 3 of Exhibit I to the original Lease is hereby amended such that Landlord shall pay for the cost of construction of the Covered Space Parking Permits described therein and that the overall parking ratio for the entire Premises as described in Section 1 of Exhibit I to the Lease is amended to be equal to 4.39 permits per 1,000 square feet of Rentable Area in the Premises.

10.Additional Security.  Upon the Effective Date, Tenant shall increase the Letter of Credit in favor of Landlord pursuant to Section 2.4 of the Lease up to One Million Three Hundred Fifteen Thousand and NO/100 Dollars ($1,315,000.00).  The second sentence of Section 2.4 to the Lease is hereby amended to read as follows: “As long as there is no Event of Default, the amount of Letter of Credit, or minimum required balance of the Cash Account required hereunder shall be reduced to (i) $875,000.00 on the day after the expiration of the forty-eighth (48th) calendar month following the Commencement Date, (ii) $438,000.00 on the day after the expiration of the eighty-fourth (84th) calendar month following the Commencement Date, at which amount it will remain until the expiration of the Term (collectively, the “Reduction Schedule”).”

11.Broker. Landlord has agreed to pay to Crimson Services, LLC and AQUILA Commercial, LLC (“Landlord’s Broker”) and to Colliers International (“Tenant’s Broker”) real estate brokerage commissions as set forth in separate commission agreements between Landlord and Landlord’s Broker and Landlord and Tenant’s Broker, respectively.  Landlord and Tenant hereby represent and warrant each to the other that they have not employed any other agents, brokers or other such parties in connection with this Lease, and each agrees that they shall hold the other harmless from and against any and all claims of all other agents, brokers or other such parties claiming by, through or under the respective indemnifying party.

12.No Claims.  As of the date hereof and except as set forth in this Amendment, to Tenant’s actual knowledge, (a) Tenant has no pending claims, demands, counterclaims, defenses, 

allowances, adjustments or offsets arising out of or in any way related to the Lease or arising out of any document, writing, or instrument executed in connection therewith or herewith, and (b) Tenant is not aware of any existing default by Landlord under any of the terms or provisions of the Lease.  

13.Entire Agreement.  This Amendment supersedes and cancels any and all previous statements, negotiations, arrangements, brochures, agreements and understandings, if any, between Landlord and Tenant with respect to the subject matter of this Amendment.  The Lease and this Amendment constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter of the Lease and this Amendment.  There are no representations, understandings, stipulations, agreements, warranties or promises (express or implied, oral or written) between Landlord and Tenant with respect to the subject matter of this Amendment or the Lease, except as set forth in this Amendment or the Lease.  It is likewise agreed that the Lease and this Amendment may not be altered, amended, modified or extended except by an instrument in writing signed by both Landlord and Tenant.

14.Authority.  Tenant represents unto Landlord that: (a) Tenant is a duly organized and validly existing Delaware limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the State of Texas, (b) Tenant has the full right and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Amendment and the execution and delivery of this Amendment by the Tenant does not require the consent of any other person or entity (including, without limitation, any lender); (c) the person executing this Amendment on behalf of Tenant is authorized to do so; and (d) this Amendment, when executed and delivered by Tenant and Landlord, will constitute the valid and binding agreement of Tenant, enforceable against Tenant in accordance with its terms.

 Exhibit 10.1 

The Gorman-Rupp Company 2015 Omnibus Incentive Plan 

Performance Share Grant Agreement 

THIS PERFORMANCE SHARE GRANT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), effective as of
            , 2015 (the “Grant Date”), is between The Gorman-Rupp Company, an Ohio corporation (the “Company”), and
                    (the “Grantee”). 

1. Grant of Performance Shares. The Company hereby grants to the Grantee the Performance Shares set forth in Appendix A (the
“Target Award”). Each Performance Share shall be deemed to be the equivalent of one common share of The Gorman-Rupp Company (a “Share”). The Grantee shall not have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to any
Shares deliverable to the Grantee in payment of the Performance Shares, including the right to vote or receive dividends, until payment of the Performance Shares is made under this Agreement. 

2. Subject to the Plan. This Agreement is subject to the provisions of The Gorman-Rupp Company 2015 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as may be
amended from time to time (the “Plan”), and, unless defined herein or the context requires otherwise, terms used herein as defined terms shall have the same meanings as in the Plan. In the event of a conflict between the provisions
of the Plan and this Agreement, the Plan shall control. 
 3. Account. The Company shall credit the Performance Shares to a
bookkeeping account (the “Account”) maintained by the Company for the Grantee’s benefit. Upon the occurrence of an event set forth in Section 12.2 of the Plan, the number of Performance Shares credited to the Account shall
be equitably and appropriately adjusted as provided in that Section. 
 4. Earning of Performance Shares. The Grantee shall be
entitled to receive payment of the number of Performance Shares earned by the Grantee over the Performance Period (as defined in Appendix A), subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Plan. The number of any Performance Shares earned by the
Grantee for the Performance Period will be determined at the end of the Performance Period based on the level of achievement of the performance measure goals set forth in Appendix A. If none of the performance measure goals are met, then all of
the Performance Shares shall be forfeited. Promptly following completion of the Performance Period, the Committee will review and certify in writing (a) whether, and to what extent, the performance measure goals for the Performance Period have
been achieved, and (b) the number of Performance Shares that the Grantee is eligible to earn, if any, subject to compliance with the vesting requirements of Section 5 of this Agreement. 

5. Vesting. The Performance Shares shall become vested at the end of the Performance Period, provided that the Grantee has remained
employed by the Company or a Subsidiary or Division since the Grant Date, except as otherwise provided in Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement, and subject to the achievement of the performance measure goals set forth in Appendix A for the
Performance Period. 

 Vested Performance Shares shall be settled in Shares (or, in the discretion of the Committee, in
cash equal to the Fair Market Value thereof). Settlement and delivery of the applicable number of Shares (or cash equivalent, if applicable) shall be made as soon as practicable following vesting, but in no event later than two and one-half (2 1⁄2) months after the vesting date. 
 6.
Termination of Employment  
 (a) General Rule. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6, in the event of the
Grantee’s termination of employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries and Divisions prior to the end of the Performance Period for any reason, all of the Performance Shares that were not vested on the date of such termination of employment
shall be immediately forfeited. 
 (b) Retirement or Disability. In the event of the Grantee’s Retirement or Disability prior to
the end of the Performance Period, the Grantee shall vest in the Performance Shares under Section 5 of this Agreement as if employment had not terminated, subject to (i) the achievement of the performance measure goals set forth in
Appendix A and (ii) a pro rata reduction equal to the result of multiplying (x) the Performance Shares that would have become earned at the end of the Performance Period pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement had the Grantee
remained in employment by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of whole months of employment from the beginning of the Performance Period to the date of the Grantee’s Retirement or Disability, and the denominator of which
is thirty-six (36). 
 For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” shall mean termination of the Grantee’s
employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries and Divisions if (i) the Grantee is then at least age 55 and has completed at least fifteen (15) years of cumulative service with the Company and its Subsidiaries and Divisions,
(ii) the Grantee’s is then at least age 60 and has completed at least ten (10) years of cumulative service with the Company and its Subsidiaries and Divisions or (iii) the Grantee is then at least age 65 and has completed at
least five (5) years of cumulative service with the Company and its Subsidiaries and Divisions. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean (A) the Grantee’s becoming disabled within the meaning of the
long-term disability plan then provided by the Company or a Subsidiary or Division, as applicable, to its employees, (B) physical or mental incapacity that renders the Grantee unable to perform employment services for a period of 180
consecutive days or an aggregate of 180 days in any consecutive 365-day period or (C) as otherwise determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. The Committee may require such proof of Disability as the Committee in its sole and absolute
discretion deems appropriate. 
 (c) Death. In the event of the Grantee’s death while employed by the Company or a
Subsidiary or Division prior to the end of the Performance Period, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Grantee shall immediately vest in that number of Performance Shares equal to the result of multiplying the
Target Award by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of whole months of employment from the beginning of the Performance Period to the date of the Grantee’s death, and the denominator of which is thirty-six (36). 

 (d) Termination by Company without Cause. In the event of the Grantee’s termination
of employment by the Company and its Subsidiaries and Divisions without Cause (as defined in this Section 6) at least 12 months after the beginning of the Performance Period but prior to the end of the Performance Period, the Grantee shall vest
in the Performance Shares under Section 5 of this Agreement as if employment had not terminated, subject to (i) the achievement of the performance measure goals set forth in Appendix A and (ii) a pro rata reduction equal to the
result of multiplying (x) the Performance Shares that would have become earned at the end of the Performance Period pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement had the Grantee remained in employment by (y) a fraction, the numerator of
which is the number of whole months of employment from the beginning of the Performance Period to the date of the Grantee’s termination of employment, and the denominator of which is thirty-six (36). 

For purposes of this Section 6, “Cause” shall mean (i) the Grantee’s willful misconduct or gross negligence in
the performance of the Grantee’s duties to the Company and/or a Subsidiary or Division, as applicable, that has or could reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the Company and/or a Subsidiary or Division, as applicable;

 7. Change in
Control 
 (a) Vesting of Performance Shares. In the event of a Change in Control, the Performance Shares shall be converted into
a number of time-based restricted stock units “RSUs”) equal to the Target Award and shall be assumed or substituted for by the successor company on substantially the same terms and conditions (which may include payment in equivalent
shares of the common stock of the successor company) as set forth in this Agreement. The RSUs shall become fully vested on the last day of the Performance Period, provided that the Grantee is then employed by the Company or a Subsidiary or Division.
If within twenty-four (24) months following the Change in Control the Grantee’s employment is terminated by the Company or a Subsidiary or Division without Cause (as defined in Section 7(c)) or by the Grantee for Good Reason, all of
such RSUs shall immediately become fully vested. 
 In the event of a Change in Control, to the extent the successor company does not assume
or substitute for the RSUs on substantially the same terms and conditions (which may include payment in equivalent shares of the common stock of the successor company) as set forth in this Agreement, all of such RSUs shall immediately become fully
vested, provided the Grantee is then employed by the Company or a Subsidiary or Division as of the date of the consummation of the Change in Control. 

 (b) Payment of RSUs. Payment of RSUs that vest pursuant to the first sub-paragraph of
paragraph (a) of this Section 7 shall be made in Shares (or, if applicable, in equivalent shares of the common stock of the successor company) as soon as practicable following the earlier of (i) the last day of the Performance Period
or (ii) the date of the termination of employment referred to in such paragraph. Payment of RSUs that vest pursuant to the second sub-paragraph of paragraph (a) of this Section 7 shall be made in Shares (or, if applicable, in
equivalent shares of the common stock of the successor company), as soon as practicable following the date of the Change in Control. In no event shall payment under this Section 7(b) be made later than two and one-half (2-1/2) months after the
applicable date. 
 (c) Cause. For purposes of this Section 7, “Cause” shall mean (i) the Grantee’s
willful misconduct or gross negligence in the performance of the Grantee’s duties to the Company and/or a Subsidiary or Division, as applicable, that has or could reasonably be expected to have an adverse effect on the Company and/or a
Subsidiary or Division, as applicable; (ii) the Grantee’s willful and continued failure to perform the Grantee’s duties to the Company and/or a Subsidiary or Division, as applicable, or to follow the lawful directives of the Chief

salary; (ii) a material and adverse change to, or a material reduction of, the Grantee’s duties and responsibilities; or (iii) the relocation of the Grantee’s primary office to any location more than fifty (50) miles from
the Grantee’s then current primary office, resulting in a materially longer commute for the Grantee. 
 8. Certain
Restrictive Covenants. The Company and its Subsidiaries and Divisions operate in a highly sensitive and competitive commercial environment. As part of the Grantee’s service with the Company and its Subsidiaries and Divisions, the Grantee
has had and will be exposed to highly confidential and sensitive information regarding the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ and Divisions’ business operations, including corporate strategy, pricing and other market information,
know-how, trade secrets, and valuable customer, supplier, distributor, regulatory, advisory and employee relationships. It is critical that the Company and its Subsidiaries and Divisions take all necessary steps to safeguard its legitimate
protectable interests in such information and to prevent any of its competitors or any other persons from obtaining any such information and the Grantee hereby agrees to be bound by the following restrictive covenants: 

(a) Non-Competition. 
  

	 	(i)	During the term of the Grantee’s service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Divisions and for a period of twenty four (24) months following the Grantee’s termination of service with the

(B) enter the employ of, or render any services to, any person engaged in any Competing Business, (C) acquire a financial interest in, or otherwise become actively involved with, any person engaged in any Competing Business, whether as an

Business provided such securities are publicly traded on a national or regional stock exchange or on the over-the-counter market. 

  

	 	(iii)	For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Competing Business” shall mean any business entity anywhere in the world that competes with the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries and/or Divisions in the
manufacture or distribution of any of its or their self-priming centrifugal, standard centrifugal, magnetic drive centrifugal, axial and mixed flow vertical turbine line shaft, submersible, high pressure booster, rotary gear, diaphragm, bellows and

refined petroleum products, including the ground refueling of aircraft; fluid control in HVAC applications; various agricultural purposes and dewatering purposes; and sprinkler back-up systems, fire hydrants, stand pipes, fog systems and deluge
systems at hotels, banks, factories, airports, schools, public buildings and other such facilities throughout the world. 

  

	 	(iv)	The Grantee understands that the restrictions set forth in this Section 8 are intended to protect the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ and Divisions’ established customer, supplier, distributor,
advisor, employee or other business relations, and the general goodwill of its business, and the Grantee agrees that such restrictions are reasonable and appropriate for this purpose. 

(b) Non-Solicitation. During the Restricted Period, the Grantee will not, directly or indirectly, either for himself or herself or on
behalf of any other person, (i) recruit or otherwise solicit or induce any customer, supplier, distributor, advisor, employee or other business relation 

 
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Divisions to terminate its employment or arrangement with the Company or its Subsidiaries or Divisions, or otherwise change its relationship with the
Company or its Subsidiaries or Divisions, or (ii) hire, or cause to be hired, any person who was employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Divisions at any time during the twelve (12)-month period immediately prior to the
Grantee’s date of termination or who thereafter becomes employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Divisions. 
 (c)
Non-Disparagement. The Grantee agrees not to disparage the Company; its Subsidiaries or Divisions; any of its or their respective customers, suppliers, distributors, advisors, employees or directors; any of its or their products or practices;
or any of its or their agents, representatives or affiliates, either orally or in writing, at any time; provided, that the Grantee may confer in confidence with the Grantee’s legal representatives and make truthful statements as required by
law. 
 (d) Confidentiality. 
  

	 	(i)	As used in this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means all data, information, ideas, concepts, discoveries, trade secrets, inventions (whether or not patentable or reduced to practice),
innovations, improvements, know-how, developments, techniques, methods, processes, treatments, drawings, sketches, specifications, designs, plans, patterns, models, plans and strategies, and all other confidential or proprietary information or trade
secrets in any form or medium (whether merely remembered or embodied in a tangible or intangible form or medium) whether now or hereafter existing, relating to or arising from the past, current or potential business, activities and/or operations of
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Divisions, including, without limitation, any such information relating to or concerning finances, sales, marketing, advertising, transition, promotions, pricing, personnel, customers, suppliers, vendors,
raw materials partners and/or competitors. Confidential Information also includes information developed by the Grantee in the course of the Grantee’s employment by the Company or its Subsidiaries or Divisions, as well as other information to
which the Grantee has had or may have access in connection with the Grantee’s service. Confidential Information also includes the confidential information of others with which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Divisions have a business
relationship and which is known by the Grantee or which the Grantee should have reason to know about. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information does not include information in the public domain, unless due to breach of the
Grantee’s duties under this Section 8(d). 

  

	 	(ii)	 The Grantee understands and agrees that the Grantee’s service creates a relationship of confidence and trust between the Grantee and the Company
and its Subsidiaries and Divisions with respect to all Confidential Information. At all times, both during the Grantee’s service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Divisions and after its termination, the Grantee will keep in
confidence and trust all such Confidential Information, and will not use or disclose any such Confidential Information without the written consent of the 

	 	
Company or its Subsidiaries or Divisions, except as may be necessary in the ordinary course of performing the Grantee’s duties to the Company or its Subsidiaries or Divisions or as otherwise
required by law. 

  

	 	(iii)	All documents, records, data, apparatus, equipment and other physical property, whether or not pertaining to Confidential Information, which are furnished to the Grantee by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or
Divisions or are produced by the Grantee in connection with the Grantee’s service will be and remain the sole property of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries or Divisions. The Grantee will return to the Company or its Subsidiaries or Divisions
all such materials and property as and when requested by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Divisions. In any event, the Grantee will return all such materials and property immediately upon termination of the Grantee’s service for any
reason, and will not retain any copies thereof following such termination. 

 (e) Reasonableness of Covenants. In
entering into this Agreement, the Grantee gives the Company assurance that the Grantee has carefully read and considered all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the restraints imposed under this Section 8. The Grantee
agrees that these restraints are necessary for the reasonable and proper protection of the Company, its Subsidiaries and Divisions, and its and their Confidential Information and that each and every one of the restraints is reasonable in respect of
subject matter, length of time and geographic area. The Grantee acknowledges that each of these covenants has a unique, very substantial and immeasurable value to the Company and its Subsidiaries and Divisions and that the Grantee has sufficient
assets and skills to provide a livelihood while such covenants remain in force. The Grantee further covenants that the Grantee will not challenge the reasonableness or enforceability of any of the covenants set forth in this Section 8, and that
the Grantee will reimburse the Company and/or its Subsidiaries and Divisions for all costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with any action to enforce any of the provisions of this Section 8 if either the
Company and/or its Subsidiaries or Divisions prevails in any such dispute. It is also agreed that each Subsidiary and Division will have the right to enforce all of the Grantee’s obligations to that Subsidiary or Division under this Agreement,
including without limitation pursuant to this Section 8. 
 (f) Reformation. If it is determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction in any state that any restriction in this Section 8 is excessive in duration or scope or is unreasonable or unenforceable under applicable law, it is the intention of the parties that such restriction may be modified or amended by
the court to render it enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by the laws of that state. 
 (g) Tolling. In the event of any
violation of the provisions of this Section 8, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the post-termination restrictions contained in this Section 8 shall be extended by a period of time equal to the period of such violation, it being the
intention of the parties hereto that the running of the applicable post-termination restriction period shall be tolled during any period of such violation. 

 (h) Survival of Provisions. The obligations contained in this Section 8 shall survive
the termination of the Grantee’s employment or service with the Company and its Subsidiaries and Divisions and shall be fully enforceable thereafter. 

(i) Equitable Relief and Other Remedies. The Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ and
Divisions’ remedies at law for a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of this Section 8 would be inadequate and, in recognition of this fact, the Grantee agrees that, in the event of such a breach or threatened breach, in
addition to any remedies at law, the Company and its Subsidiaries and Divisions shall be entitled to obtain equitable relief in the form of specific performance, a temporary restraining order, a temporary or permanent injunction or any other
equitable remedy which may then be available, without the necessity of showing actual monetary damages or the posting of a bond or other security. In the event of a material violation by the Grantee of Section 8 hereof, any value previously
delivered to the Grantee pursuant to this Agreement shall be immediately repaid to the Company. 
 9. Securities Laws/Legend on
Certificates. The issuance and delivery of Shares shall comply with all applicable requirements of law, including (without limitation) the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, state securities
laws and regulations, and the regulations of any stock exchange or other securities market on which the Company’s securities may then be traded. If the Company deems it necessary to ensure that the issuance of Shares under the Plan is not
required to be registered under any applicable securities laws, the Grantee shall deliver to the Company an agreement or certificate containing such representations, warranties and covenants, as reasonably requested by the Company, which satisfies
such requirements. Any certificates representing the Shares shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem reasonably advisable, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such
certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions. 
 10. Beneficiary. In the event of the Grantee’s death prior
to payment of the vested Performance Shares credited to the Account, payment shall be made to the last beneficiary designated in writing that is received by the Company prior to the Grantee’s death or, if no designated beneficiary survives the
Grantee, such payment shall be made to the Grantee’s estate. 
 11. Source of Payments. The Grantee’s right to receive
payment under this Agreement shall be an unfunded entitlement and shall be an unsecured claim against the general assets of the Company. The Grantee has only the status of a general unsecured creditor hereunder, and this Agreement constitutes only a
promise by the Company to pay the value of the Account on the payment date in accordance with the other terms of this Agreement. 

12. Nontransferability. Except as otherwise permitted under the Plan and/or Section 10 of this Agreement, this Agreement
shall not be assignable or transferable by the Grantee or by the Company (other than to successors of the Company or as a result of a sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets) and no amounts payable under this Agreement, or any rights
therein, shall be subject in any manner to any anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, levy, lien, attachment, garnishment, debt or other charge or disposition of any kind. 

 13. Withholding. The Grantee agrees to pay to the Company, or to make satisfactory
arrangement with the Company for payment of, any federal, state or local taxes, if any, required by law to be withheld in respect of payment of the Performance Shares. The Grantee hereby agrees that the Company may withhold from the Grantee’s
wages or other remuneration the applicable taxes. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, the applicable taxes shall be withheld in kind from the Shares deliverable to the Grantee in payment of the Performance Shares. 

14. Notices. All notices required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally or by mailing
by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid or by delivering via overnight courier using an express delivery service, to the other party. Notice by mail shall be deemed delivered at the time and on the date the same is postmarked.

of Ohio, other than its conflict of laws principles. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this Agreement. 

 18. Agreement Not a Contract. This Agreement (and the grant of Performance Shares) is
not an employment or service contract, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on the Grantee’s part to continue as an Employee, or of the Company or a Subsidiary or Division to continue the
Grantee’s service as an Employee. 
 19. Entire Agreement; Modification. This Agreement contains the entire agreement
between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified except as provided in the Plan or in a written document executed by both parties. 

20. Repayment Obligation. In the event that (i) the Company issues a restatement of financial results to correct a material error
and (ii) the Committee determines, in good faith, that the Grantee’s fraud or willful misconduct was a significant contributing factor to the need to issue such restatement and (iii) some or all of the Performance Shares that were
granted and/or earned during the three year period prior to such restatement would not have been granted and/or earned, as applicable, based upon the restated financial results, the Grantee shall immediately return to the Company (as applicable) any
outstanding Performance Shares, any Shares received under this Agreement and/or the pre-tax income derived from any disposition of any Shares previously received in payment of the Performance Shares that would not have been granted and/or earned
based upon the restated financial results (the “Repayment Obligation”). This Repayment Obligation shall be in addition to any compensation recovery policy that is adopted by the Company or is otherwise required by applicable law.

 21. Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code
or an exemption thereunder and shall be construed and interpreted in a manner that is consistent with the requirements for avoiding additional taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code. In addition and notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, the Company reserves the right to revise this Agreement as it deems necessary or advisable, in its sole discretion and without the Grantee’s consent, to comply with Section 409A or to otherwise avoid imposition
of any additional tax or income recognition under Section 409A in connection with this Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representations that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement comply with
Section 409A of the Code and in no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by the Grantee on account of non-compliance with Section 409A of the Code.
For purposes of this Agreement, “Section 409A” means Section 409A of the Code, and any proposed, temporary or final Treasury regulations and Internal Revenue Service guidance thereunder, as each may be amended from time to
time.

or in part by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall (i) be deemed limited to the extent that such court of competent jurisdiction deems it lawful, valid and/or enforceable and as so limited shall remain in full force and
effect, and (ii) not affect any other provision of this Agreement or part thereof, each of which shall remain in full force and effect.

 APPENDIX A 

PERSONAL AND CONFIDENTIAL 
  

			
	Grantee:		[INSERT GRANTEE NAME]
		
	Long-Term Incentive Opportunity:		The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of The Gorman-Rupp Company has determined to award Grantee a long-term incentive award opportunity in the form of “Performance Shares” with an initial cash
equivalent award amount of $        .
		
	Target Award:		 [INSERT TARGET NUMBER OF SHARES] Performance Shares.
  

The Target Award was calculated based on (i) the $27.31 closing price of a common share of The Gorman-Rupp Company stock on May 1, 2015 divided into
(ii) the foregoing long-term incentive opportunity, and then rounded down to the nearest whole number.

		
	Performance Period:		January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2017
		
	Performance Measure Goals:		 There are two performance measures for the Performance Period as more fully described below:

 

-        50% of the Target Award is based on Operating Income growth

 

-        50% of the Target Award is based on Shareholders’ Equity
growth

		
	Earned Award:		The number of Performance Shares earned by Grantee can range from 0% to 150% of the Target Award based on the achievement of the performance measure goals and the terms and conditions of the Agreement as more fully described
below.
		
	Payment:		Any payment of earned Performance Shares is expected to be in the form of Shares.

 Performance Measure Goals 

The performance measures for this Target Award are compound annual growth (CAGR) goals for The Gorman-Rupp Company’s audited consolidated Operating Income
and Shareholders’ Equity over a three-year period from January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2017 (the “Performance Period”). These performance measure goals are shown in the table below and each performance measure
goal contributes 50% of the total Target Award determination. 
  

									
	 3-Year Performance Period Compound Annual Growth (CAGR)
Goals
	 
	 Target Award Payment Range
	  	Operating Income (50%)	 	 	Shareholders’ Equity (50%)	 
			
	 Maximum (150%)
	  	 	+    	% 	 	 	+    	% 
	 Target (100%)
	  	 	+    	% 	 	 	+    	% 
	 Threshold (50%)
	  	 	+    	% 	 	 	+    	% 

 In determining whether the performance measure goals have been achieved, the Compensation Committee has determined that it
will exclude the impact of any of the following which are material and non-budgeted: acquisitions and dispositions, extraordinary items, litigation expenses and settlements, other unusual or non-recurring charges (as discussed in management’s
discussion and analysis in the Company’s Form 10-K for that year), force majeure events, foreign exchange gains and losses, goodwill or long-lived asset impairment and/or the cumulative effects of tax or accounting changes in accordance with
U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. 
 Performance Shares Earned 

Depending on the Company’s level of achievement of the performance measure goals, the Grantee may earn between 0% and 150% of the Performance Shares. The
minimum (threshold) earned payment will be 50% of the Performance Shares. (If less than 50% of both performance measure goals are not achieved, then no Performance Shares will be earned.) The maximum earned payment will be 150% of the Performance
Shares. 
 Payment amounts will be earned on a straight-line interpolated basis between 50% and 100%, and between 100% and 150%, based on achievement of the
respective three-year growth goals for Operating Income and Shareholders’ Equity as noted in the table above. The two respective goal achievement amounts added together equal Grantee’s total achieved Performance Shares less an estimated
amount of Shares to pay Grantee’s related income taxes. The net number of Performance Shares earned will be paid to Grantee by the issuance of an equal number of actual common shares of The Gorman-Rupp Company on or about March 1, 2018.
