 Grantee:
                                 

1. Grant of Performance-Based Award; Issuance of Restricted Stock Upon Achievement of Performance-Based Metrics.

 (a) As of the effective date of this agreement (this “Agreement”), Basic Energy
Services, Inc. (formerly BES Holding Co.), a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby grants to the Grantee (identified above) shares (the “Restricted Stock”) of common stock, $0.01 par value per share of
the Company (the “Common Stock”), subject to meeting the Performance Metrics as described in Section 12 hereof, and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Fourth Amended and Restated Basic Energy
Services, Inc. 2003 Incentive Plan (as amended, the “Plan”). The Plan is hereby incorporated in this Agreement in its entirety by reference. 

(b) To determine the actual number of shares of Restricted Stock to be earned by Grantee, the PB Peer
Group (as identified in Section 12 below) will be ranked from best performing to worst performing with regard to each company’s respective TSR Performance Metric where the PB Peer Group company ranked 1st shall be the one with the highest TSR Performance Metric when
compared to all other PB Peer Group companies, the PB Peer Group company ranked 2nd shall be the one with the second highest TSR Performance Metric when compared to all other PB Peer Group companies, the PB Peer Group company ranked 3rd shall be the one with the third highest TSR Performance Metric when
compared to all other PB Peer Group companies, and so forth. The PB Peer Group company ranked 13th shall be the one with the lowest TSR Performance Metric when compared to all other PB Peer Group companies. The percentage of TSR Target Shares (as identified in Section 12 below) earned by Grantee
should the Company’s TSR Performance Metric equal that of the 1st-ranked,
2nd-ranked, 3rd-ranked, etc., PB Peer Group company will be as set forth below:

			
	 PB Peer Group Company
 Rank Based on TSR

	 1st
	 	150.0%
		
	 2nd

	 	133.3%
		
	 4th
	 	125.0%
		
	 5th
	 	116.7%
		
	 6th
	 	108.3%
		
	 7th
	 	100.0%

	 11th
	 	33.3%
		
	 12th
	 	16.7%
		
	 13th
	 	    0%

 Should the Company’s TSR Performance Metric be (1) greater than the TSR
Performance Metric of the 1st-ranked member of the PB Peer Group, the percentage of TSR Target Shares earned by Grantee will be 150.0%, (2) less than the TSR Performance Metric of the 13th-ranked (or last) member of the PB Peer Group, the
percentage of TSR Target Shares earned by Grantee will be 0%, and (3) greater than the TSR Performance Metric of one PB Peer Group company and less than the TSR Performance Metric of the next highest ranked PB Peer Group company, the percentage
of TSR Target Shares earned by Grantee will be higher than the percentage assigned to the lower ranked of the two companies and lower than the percentage assigned to the higher ranked of the two companies with the exact percentage of Target Shares
earned by the Grantee determined by proportional interpolation (for example, if the Company’s TSR Performance Metric were to be at the midpoint between the TSR Performance Metrics of the
6th-ranked and the 5th-ranked PB Peer Group companies, the Grantee would earn 112.5% of the
TSR Target Shares (as identified in Section 12 below), 112.5% lying exactly halfway between the 108.3% assigned to the
6th-ranked PB Peer Group company and the 116.7% assigned
to the 5th-ranked PB Peer Group company).

 (c) The stock certificate(s) or book entry evidencing the shares of
Restricted Stock shall not be issued or registered on the Company’s books and records until (i) the achievement of the Performance Metrics set forth above and described in Section 12 below have been met and approved by the Committee
and (ii) the Committee has determined the specific number of shares of Restricted Stock to be issued pursuant to this Agreement. Upon resolution and certification by the Committee that the applicable Performance Metrics have been achieved, and
subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company will promptly issue by book entry or a stock certificate(s) the aggregate number of shares of Restricted Stock certified by the Committee for issuance under this Agreement.

independent legal and tax advice regarding the grant of the Restricted Stock in accordance with this Agreement and any disposition of any such shares. 
 7. Reorganization of Company. The existence of this Agreement shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all
adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in Company’s capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue or bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stock ahead of or
affecting the Restricted Stock or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or
otherwise.

 10. Withholding of Taxes. The Grantee shall have the responsibility of discharging all taxes owed by the Grantee as a result of any Restricted Stock awarded to Grantee pursuant to
this Agreement and no issuance of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement shall be made until appropriate arrangements satisfactory to the Company have been made for the payment of any tax amounts that may be required to be withheld or paid to the
Company with respect thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in accordance with Section 9(b) of the Plan, the Company hereby agrees that the Grantee may direct the Company to satisfy the Company’s actual withholding tax obligations through
the “constructive” tender and withholding of vested Restricted Stock under 

  
 4 

 
this Agreement; provided, the Company may revoke such right at any time prior to the vesting date of Awards under this Agreement by giving written notice to the Grantee. Grantee agrees that, if
he makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, with regard to the Restricted Stock, he will so notify the Company in writing within two (2) weeks after making such election, so as to enable the
Company to timely comply with any applicable governmental reporting requirements. 
 11. General.

 (a) Notices. All notices under this Agreement shall be mailed or delivered by hand to the parties at
their respective addresses set forth beneath their signatures below or at such other address as may be designated in writing by either of the parties to one another, or to their permitted transferees if applicable. Notices shall be effective upon
receipt. 
 (b) Transferability of Award. The rights of the Grantee pursuant to this Agreement are not
transferable by Grantee. No right or benefit hereunder shall in any manner be liable for or subject to any debts, contracts, liabilities, obligations or torts of Grantee or any permitted transferee thereof. Any purported assignment, alienation,
pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or other encumbrance of the Restricted Stock, prior to the lapse of restrictions, that does not satisfy the requirements hereunder shall be void and unenforceable against the Company. 

(c) Amendment and Termination. No amendment, modification or termination of this Agreement shall be made at any
time without the written consent of Grantee and the Company. 
 (d) No Guarantee of Tax Consequences. The
Company and the Committee make no commitment or guarantee that any federal or state tax treatment will apply or be available to any person eligible for benefits under this Agreement. The Grantee has been advised and been provided the opportunity to
obtain independent legal and tax advice regarding the award of Restricted Stock pursuant to this Agreement and the disposition of any Common Stock acquired thereby. 

(e) Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be held illegal, invalid or unenforceable
for any reason, such provision shall be fully severable, but shall not affect the remaining provisions of the Agreement, and the Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had not been included
therein. 
 (f) Supersedes Prior Agreements. This Agreement shall supersede and replace all prior
agreements and understandings, oral or written, between the Company and the Grantee regarding the grant of the Restricted Stock covered hereby. 
 (g) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas without regard to its conflict of law provisions, to the extent federal law does not supersede
and preempt Texas law. 

  
 5 

 (h) No Trust or Fund Created. This Agreement shall not create or be
construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company or any Affiliate and a Grantee or any other Person. To the extent that any Person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any
Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement, such right shall be no greater than the right of any general unsecured creditor of the Company or any Affiliate. 
 (i) Other Laws. The Company retains the right to refuse to issue or transfer any Common Stock if it determines that the issuance or transfer of such shares might violate any applicable law or
regulation or entitle the Company to recover under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

(j) Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors to the Company and all
persons lawfully claiming under the Grantee.

 With
respect to any of the events set forth in clauses (ii), (iii) or (iv) above in this Section 12(b) prior to the end of the Performance Period, the Grantee shall also be deemed to have met the TSR Performance Metric and earned 100% of

which Participant was participating immediately prior to the Change in Control; 

  
 6 

 (d) Disability. “Disability” shall mean that Grantee
is entitled to receive long-term disability (“LTD”) income benefits under the LTD plan or policy maintained by the Company that covers Grantee. If, for any reason, Grantee is not covered under such LTD plan or policy, then
“Disability” shall mean a “permanent and total disability” as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code and Treasury regulations thereunder. Evidence of such Disability shall be certified by a physician acceptable to the
Company. Grantee agrees to submit to any examinations that are reasonably required by the attending physician or other healthcare service providers to determine whether he or she has a Disability. 

(e) Retirement. “Retirement” means the voluntary termination of Grantee’s employment for
normal retirement at or after attaining age 62 provided that, on the date of his retirement, Grantee has accrued at least ten continuous years of active employment service with the Company; provided, if the Grantee is party to an employment
agreement in effect between the Grantee and the Company as of the date hereof in which the term “Retirement” is defined for purposes of that agreement, such term shall apply to this Agreement. 

In the event of the Retirement of the Grantee, Grantee is hereby given the option to have any unvested shares forfeited in connection with
such Retirement in accordance with Section 5(b) reissued to the Grantee upon, and as partial consideration for, Grantee’s execution and delivery of a non-compete agreement (in the form required by the Company in its sole discretion with a
term of not longer than the final vesting date set forth in Section 12(d) above) within the period of time specified by the Company after delivery of such agreement to the Grantee for execution. In addition, with respect to a Retirement after
the end of the Performance Period but prior to the determination of the achievement of the TSR Performance Metric by the Committee, the Grantee shall also be deemed to have met the TSR Performance Metric and earn TSR Target Shares if and when
determined in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (f) TSR Target Shares and Maximum Number of
Shares of Restricted Stock. “TSR Target Shares” means                  shares of Common Stock. Accordingly, based on the potential

(g) Performance Metric. For purposes of this Agreement: 

 

	 	(i)	“TSR Performance Metric” means the cumulative total shareholder return (“TSR”) for the Common Stock of the Company as calculated below
for the Performance Period. The award will be earned as set forth in Section 1(b) based on the Company’s TSR performance relative to the PB Peer Group. 

  
 7 

	 	(ii)	“TSR for the Performance Period” shall be defined and calculated as follows, where “Beginning Price” is the average closing price on
the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) for the last 20 NYSE trading days of 2011, and “Ending Price” is the average closing price on the NYSE for the last 20 NYSE trading days of 2012, in each case as applied to the
applicable equity security: 

 TSR = (Ending Price – Beginning Price + cash dividends (if any) per share
paid*) 
 Beginning
Price                                        
                 
  

	 	*	Stock dividends paid in securities rather than cash in which there is a distribution of less than 25 percent of the outstanding shares (as calculated prior to the
distribution) shall be treated as cash for purposes of this calculation. 

 To the extent a security of the Company
or any member of the PB Peer Group is not listed or traded on the NYSE, “NYSE” as used above above shall mean the principal national securities exchange or quotation service on which the security is listed or quoted. 

(h) PB Peer Group. “PB Peer Group” means each of the following companies: (1) C&J Energy
Services, Inc.; (2) Forbes Energy Services Ltd.; (3) Hercules Offshore Inc.; (4) Key Energy Services, Inc.; (5) Natural Gas Services Group, Inc.; (6) Oil States International, Inc.; (7) Patterson-UTI Energy Inc.;
(8) Pioneer Drilling Co.; (9) Superior Energy Services, Inc.; (10) Team Inc.; (11) Tesco Corp.; (12) Tetra Technologies, Inc.; and (13) Union Drilling, Inc.; provided, in the event any such company ceases to
exist, ceases to file public reports timely with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the Performance Period or merges or combines with any other entity that, in the determination of the Committee makes such combined company
not comparable for use as part of the PB Peer Group, the Committee in its sole discretion may continue to include or exclude such company in the PB Peer Group, but in no event may substitute any other company in its place as part of the PB Peer
Group. 
 (i) Performance Period. “Performance Period” means the one-year calculation
period starting on the 20th NYSE trading day prior to and including the last NYSE trading day of 2011 and ending on the last NYSE trading day of 2012.
