 Dear John: 
 I am pleased to extend to you an offer of
employment to join us as Senior Vice President of Administration, Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary with additional functional responsibility for IT, Legal and Facilities, reporting directly to me with a start date of September 5,
2006. Your election as an officer of the Company will require Board approval (which I expect to obtain at the Board meeting to be held on July 20, 2006). 
 The terms of the offer provide an annual base salary of two hundred seventy thousand dollars ($270,000.00), paid semi monthly. 
 The offer also
includes a non qualified option to purchase one hundred thousand (100,000) shares of ESI common stock issued as an inducement grant with terms substantially as set forth in ESI’s 2004 Stock Incentive Plan. One quarter of these options
shall vest on each of the first four anniversaries of the grant date. The option price will be the market closing price on your first day of employment. For information about the stock incentive plan, refer to the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan
Prospectus. 
 You will be eligible to participate in ESI’s companywide bonus program. Under the FY’07 plan, you are targeted to receive a cash
bonus equal to sixty percent (60%) of your base salary if certain company and individual performance targets (as determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion) are achieved. If performance targets are exceeded you could receive up
to an amount not to exceed 200% of your bonus target. Your bonus for FY’07 will be prorated based on the number of months you worked for ESI during the 2007 fiscal year. 
 You will also receive a sign-on bonus of four thousand (4,000) restricted stock units issued under the terms and conditions of ESI’s 2004 Stock Incentive Plan. These will be granted on the first day of your
employment. One half of these will vest 90 days after the grant date; the remaining one half of these will vest one year and 90 days after the grant date. 
 As an officer of the company, you are eligible to participate in ESI’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan. You will also be covered by a change in control agreement (CIC) with terms established by the Board of Directors in May of
2006. A separate CIC agreement will be given to you to execute. 

 As a regular full-time employee, you are eligible to participate in ESI’s employee benefit program. The benefits
available to you are defined in plan documents which may change from time to time. Refer to the enclosed 2004 Benefit Program for a summary of ESI’s current benefits. 
 Your performance and salary will be reviewed annually in accordance with ESI’s employment policies. 
 We understand
that when you join ESI, you will remain a partner in Tatum LLC. You acknowledge that (i) your partnership status will not interfere with your responsibilities as a full-time employee of the Company, (ii) that no confidences of ESI will be
shared with Tatum or any of its partners (iii) that any financial obligations that you may have with respect to your Tatum partnership status will be borne by you and shall not be the obligation of ESI and (iv) that, unless approved in
advance by the Company, Tatum will not solicit any employee of the Company to become a partner of Tatum or to perform services on its behalf. 
 Further, if
you voluntarily terminate your employment with ESI within one year of your start date, you agree to repay a pro rata portion of the one hundred eight thousand dollar ($108,000.00) placement fee that it paid to Tatum as consideration for your
employment with ESI. The amount of the fee to be paid will be calculated on a pro rata basis for the portion of the one year period that you are not voluntarily employed by ESI. 
 This offer is conditioned upon our negotiation of a Full-Time Permanent Engagement Agreement with Tatum on terms satisfactory to us. 
 The following are pre-conditions to your employment with ESI: 
 1. In accordance with the Immigration Reform &
Control Act of 1986, employment in the United States is conditional upon proof of eligibility to legally work in the United States by completing the Employment Eligibility Verification Form (I-9). You are required to present one document from Column
A or one document from column B and one document from column C (view the attached list) on your first day of employment. If you do not have sufficient documents, please contact me prior to your first day of employment as your employment may be
impacted. You must also present a valid social security card in order to satisfy IRS and Social Security Administration requirements. (Note: The social security card may also be used to satisfy the column C requirement as explained above.)

 2. As an employee of ESI you will have access to confidential information and you may, during the course of your employment, develop information or
inventions which are the property of ESI. To protect the interests of ESI, you are required to sign and return the Company’s standard “Employee Confidentiality and Assignment Agreement”. We wish to impress upon you that we do not wish
you to bring with you any confidential or proprietary material of any former employer or to violate any other obligations you may have to your former employer; ESI is making this offer on the understanding that you are not subject to any non-compete
or other agreement that would restrict your employment at ESI. 
 This offer is contingent upon satisfactory completion of a reference check. 
 I am very excited about your joining ESI and look forward to a beneficial and productive relationship. This offer of employment is extended to you through the end of
business, Monday July 10, 2006. This letter outlines all aspects of the employment offer discussed with you. If you agree that this letter is correct in all aspects and you accept our offer of employment, please sign and fax a copy of this

Company with any other entity, unless the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or business combination continue to represent at least a majority of the combined voting power of the securities
having the right to vote for the election of directors generally of the Company or the surviving entity or any parent thereof outstanding immediately after such merger, consolidation or business combination (either by remaining outstanding or by

transactions, including by means of a sale, lease or disposition of the assets or equity interests in one or more of its direct or indirect subsidiaries), other than such a sale, lease or other disposition to an entity of which at least a majority
of the combined voting power of the outstanding securities are owned directly or indirectly by stockholders of the Company. 

  

	 	(v)	The occurrence of any other event or circumstance that results in the Company filing or being required to file a report or proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange
Commission disclosing that a change of control of the Company has occurred. 

  

	(c)	Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the provisions of Section IV(d) are superceded and shall no longer have any effect.

Securities and Exchange Commission are required for such sale or disposition and that no state license or permit is necessary for such sale or disposition, and (ii) that such a state license or permit, if required, has been duly issued.

 ARTICLE VII 
 Other Terms

  

	(a)	Grantee understands that (i) the Grantee shall not have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any Common Stock received upon exercise of this Option until such Common
Stock has been actually issued to the Grantee in accordance with the terms hereof; and (ii) nothing in this Agreement or the Plan shall confer on Grantee any right to continue in the employ of the Company or a Subsidiary or interfere in any way
with the right of the Company or a Subsidiary to terminate his or her employment at any time, with or without cause, notwithstanding the possibility that the number of Shares purchasable or exercisable by Grantee under this Option thereby be reduced
or eliminated. 

  

	(b)	Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may postpone the exercise of this Option for such time as the Board of Directors or the Committee in its discretion may
deem necessary, in order to permit the Board of Directors or the Committee with reasonable diligence (i) to effect or maintain registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of the Plan or the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
the exercise of this Option, or (ii) to determine that the Plan and such shares are exempt from registration; and the Company shall not be obligated by virtue of this Option or to sell or issue shares of Common Stock in violation of said Act or
of the law of any government having jurisdiction thereof. Any such postponement shall not extend the Term of this Option; and neither the Company nor its Board nor the Committee shall have any obligation or liability to the Grantee or to the
Grantee’s Successor, with respect to any Shares of Common Stock as to which this Option shall lapse because of such postponement. 

  

 7 

	(c)	Subject to Article IV of this Agreement, this Option shall be non-transferable and non-assignable except by will and by the law of descent and distribution. During the
Grantee’s lifetime, this Option may be exercised only by the Grantee. 

  

	(d)	The Grantee agrees that in the event Grantee makes any sale or other disposition of the Shares issued upon exercise of an Incentive Stock Option within 1 year after the date of
exercise, Grantee shall promptly notify the Company of such sale or disposition and shall furnish the Company with such information concerning such sale or disposition as may be requested by the Company. 

  

	(e)	As a condition of the granting of this Option, the Grantee or Successor of the Grantee agrees that any dispute or disagreement which may arise hereunder shall be determined by the
Board of Directors or the Committee in its sole discretion and judgment, and that any such determination and any interpretation by the Board of Directors or the Committee of the terms of this Agreement or the Plan shall be final and binding and
conclusive, for all purposes, upon the Company, the Grantee or the Successor of the Grantee. No member of the Board or the Committee shall be liable to any person for any action, failure to act, omission or determination taken or made in good faith
with respect to the Plan or this Agreement. 

  

	(f)	Any notice given by the Company to the Grantee shall be effective to bind any person who shall acquire rights hereunder. The Company shall be under no obligation whatsoever to
advise the Grantee of the existence, maturity or termination of any of the Grantee’s rights hereunder and the Grantee shall be deemed to have familiarized himself/herself with all matters contained herein and in the Plan which may affect any of
the Grantee’s rights and privileges hereunder. 

  

	(g)	This Agreement is subject to the Plan and its terms and provisions (including any subsequent amendments thereto), which Plan and its terms and provisions are by this reference
incorporated herein. In the event of a conflict between any term or provision contained herein and a term or a provision of the Plan, the applicable terms and provisions of the Plan will govern and prevail. 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, TEXAS INDUSTRIES, INC. has caused this Stock Option Agreement to be executed as of the Effective Date, and Grantee has accepted the
