RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT

     THIS RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made as of ___between
QUINTANA MARITIME LIMITED, a Marshall Islands company (the “Company”), and ___(the
“Employee”). The parties agree as follows:

     1.     Award. Pursuant to the QUINTANA MARITIME LIMITED 2005 STOCK INCENTIVE
PLAN (the “Plan”), as of the date of this Agreement, ___shares (the “Restricted Shares”) of
the Company’s common stock shall be issued as hereinafter provided in the Employee’s name subject
to certain restrictions thereon. The Restricted Shares shall be issued upon acceptance hereof by
Employee and upon satisfaction of the conditions of this Agreement. The Employee acknowledges
receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees that this award of Restricted Shares shall be subject to
all of the terms and provisions of the Plan, including future amendments thereto, if any, pursuant
to the terms thereof.

     2.     Restricted Shares. The Employee hereby accepts the Restricted Shares when issued
and agrees with respect thereto as follows:

          (a)     Forfeiture Restrictions. The Restricted Shares may not be sold, assigned,
pledged, exchanged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred, encumbered or disposed of to the
extent then subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions, and in the event of termination of the
Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason other than as provided in Section
2(b), the Employee shall, for no consideration, forfeit to the Company all Restricted Shares
then subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions. The prohibition against transfer and the
obligation to forfeit and surrender Restricted Shares to the Company upon termination of
employment are herein referred to as the “Forfeiture Restrictions.” The Forfeiture
Restrictions shall be binding upon and enforceable against any transferee of Restricted
Shares.

          (b)     Lapse of Forfeiture Restrictions. The Forfeiture Restrictions shall lapse
as to the Restricted Shares in accordance with the following schedule provided that the
Employee has been continuously employed by the Company from the date of this Agreement
through the lapse date:

	 	 	 
	 	 	Number of Restricted Shares Granted as to Which
	Lapse Date	 	Forfeiture Restrictions Lapse
	___
	 	___
	___
	 	___
	___
	 	___
	___
	 	___

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Employee’s employment with the Company is
terminated by reason of his death or disability (within the meaning of section 22(e)(3)

 

 

of the Code) ) or if a Corporate Change occurs (as defined in the Plan), the Forfeiture
Restrictions shall lapse as to all of the Restricted Shares then subject to the Forfeiture
Restrictions. The Employee is entitled to receive cash dividends paid on the Restricted
Shares in the same amounts paid with respect to the Company’s common stock until the
Forfeiture Restrictions lapse (at which time the Restricted Shares will no longer be subject
to this Agreement and will be treated the same as other shares of the Company’s common
stock) or the Restricted Shares are forfeited (after which time the Employee will no longer
be entitled to dividends with respect to any of the forfeited Restricted Shares).

          (c)     Book Entry. A book entry evidencing the Restricted Shares shall be made in
your name in the books of the Company maintained by its transfer agent, pursuant to which
you shall have all of the rights of a shareholder of the Company (except with respect to
distributions as provided above) with respect to the Restricted Shares, including, without
limitation, voting rights. The book entry shall reflect the restrictions on transfer set
forth in Section 2(a) above. Upon vesting, the Company shall cause the book entry to be
amended to remove any restrictions (except for any restrictions required pursuant to
applicable securities laws or any other agreement to which you are a party) with respect to
the Restricted Shares that have vested.

          (d)     Corporate Acts. The existence of the Restricted Shares shall not affect in
any way the right or power of the Board of Directors of the Company or the shareholders of
the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other
change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of
the Company, any issue of debt or equity securities, the dissolution or liquidation of the
Company or any sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or any part of its assets
or business or any other corporate act or proceeding. The prohibitions of Section 2(a)
hereof shall not apply to the transfer of Restricted Shares pursuant to a plan of
reorganization of the Company, but the stock, securities or other property received in
exchange therefor shall also become subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions and provisions
governing the lapsing of such Forfeiture Restrictions applicable to the original Restricted
Shares for all purposes of this Agreement and the certificates representing such stock,
securities or other property shall be legended to show such restrictions.

     3.     Withholding of Tax and Tax Elections. To the extent that the receipt of the
Restricted Shares or the lapse of any Forfeiture Restrictions results in compensation income or
wages to the Employee for federal, state, or local income tax purposes, the Employee shall deliver
to the Company at the time of such receipt or lapse, as the case may be, such amount of money as
the Company may require to meet its obligation under applicable tax laws or regulations. The
Employee may elect with respect to this Agreement to surrender or authorize the Company to withhold
shares of stock of the Company (valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of surrender or
withholding of such shares) to satisfy any tax required to be withheld by reason of compensation
income resulting under this Agreement. An election pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be
referred to herein as a “Stock Withholding Election.” All Stock Withholding Elections shall be
made by written notice to the Company at its principal executive office addressed to the attention
of the Secretary. The Employee may revoke such election by delivering to the Secretary written
notice of such revocation prior to the date such election is implemented through actual surrender
or withholding of shares of stock of the Company. If the

-2-

 

Employee fails to pay the required amount to the Company or fails to make a Stock Withholding
Election, the Company is authorized to withhold from any cash remuneration or stock remuneration,
including withholding any Restricted Shares distributable to the Employee under this Agreement,
then or thereafter payable to the Employee any tax required to be withheld by reason of
compensation income resulting under this Agreement or the disposition of Restricted Shares acquired
under this Agreement.

     If the Employee makes the election authorized by section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the “Code”), the Employee shall submit to the Company a copy of the statement
filed by the Employee to make such election.

     4.     Status of Stock. The Employee agrees that the Restricted Shares issued under this
Agreement will not be sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner that would constitute a violation
of any applicable federal or state securities laws. The Employee also agrees that (i) the
certificates representing the Restricted Shares may bear such legend or legends as the Committee
deems appropriate in order to reflect the Forfeiture Restrictions and to assure compliance with
applicable securities laws, (ii) the Company may refuse to register the transfer of the Restricted
Shares on the stock transfer records of the Company if such proposed transfer would constitute a
violation of the Forfeiture Restrictions or, in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company,
of any applicable securities law, and (iii) the Company may give related instructions to its
transfer agent, if any, to stop registration of the transfer of the Restricted Shares.

     5.     Employment Relationship. For purposes of this Agreement, the Employee shall be
considered to be in the employment of the Company as long as the Employee remains an employee of
either the Company or an Affiliate (as defined in the Plan). Nothing in the adoption of the Plan,
nor the award of the Restricted Shares thereunder pursuant to this Agreement, shall confer upon the
Employee the right to continued employment by the Company or affect in any way the right of the
Company to terminate such employment at any time. Unless otherwise provided in a written
employment agreement or by applicable law, the Employee’s employment by the Company shall be on an
at-will basis, and the employment relationship may be terminated at any time by either the Employee
or the Company for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause. Any question as to whether and
when there has been a termination of such employment, and the cause of such termination, shall be
determined by the Committee, and its determination shall be final.

     6.     Notices. Any notices or other communications provided for in this Agreement shall
be sufficient if in writing. In the case of the Employee, such notices or communications shall be
effectively delivered if hand delivered to the Employee at his principal place of employment or if
sent by registered or certified mail to the Employee at the last address the Employee has filed
with the Company. In the case of the Company, such notices or communications shall be effectively
delivered if sent by registered or certified mail to the Company at its principal executive
offices.

     7.     Amendment. This Agreement may not be modified in any respect by any verbal
statement, representation or agreement made by the Employee or by any employee, officer, or
representative of the Company or by any written agreement unless signed by the Employee and

-3-

 

by an officer of the Company who is expressly authorized by the Company to execute such
document.

     8.     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 Employee.

     9.     Controlling Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance
with, the laws of the Marshall Islands, without regards to conflicts of laws principles.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Agreement to be duly executed by an officer
thereunto duly authorized, and the Employee has executed this Agreement, all as of the date first
above written.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Director’s service on the Board of Directors of the
Company is terminated by reason of his death or disability (within the meaning of section
22(e)(3) of the Code) or if a Corporate Change occurs (as defined in the Plan), the
Forfeiture Restrictions shall lapse as to all of the Restricted Shares then subject to the
Forfeiture Restrictions. The Director is entitled to receive cash dividends paid on the
Restricted Shares in the same amounts paid with respect to the Company’s common stock until
the Forfeiture Restrictions lapse (at which time the Restricted Shares will no longer be

common stock) or the Restricted Shares are forfeited (after which time the Director will no
longer be entitled to dividends with respect to any of the forfeited Restricted Shares).

           (c)     Book Entry. A book entry evidencing the Restricted Shares shall be made in
your name in the books of the Company maintained by its transfer agent, pursuant to which
you shall have all of the rights of a shareholder of the Company (except with respect to

any way the right or power of the Board of Directors of the Company or the shareholders of
the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other
change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of
the Company, any issue of debt or equity securities, the dissolution or liquidation of the
Company or any sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or any part of its assets
or business or any other corporate act or proceeding. The prohibitions of Section 2(a)
hereof shall not apply to the transfer of Restricted Shares pursuant to a plan of
reorganization of the Company, but the stock, securities or other property received in
exchange therefor shall also become subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions and provisions
governing the lapsing of such Forfeiture Restrictions applicable to the original Restricted
Shares for all purposes of this Agreement and the certificates representing such stock,
securities or other property shall be legended to show such restrictions.

considered to be providing services to the Company as long as the Director remains a member of the
Board of Directors of the Company. Nothing in the adoption of the Plan, nor the award of the

to continue providing serving as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company or affect in any
way the right of the Company to terminate such membership at any time, subject to the Company’s
Articles of Incorporation and By-laws.
