        , 20            , by and between Pacer International, Inc. (the “Company”), a Tennessee corporation, and

 Background Information 
 The Compensation Committee and the Board of Directors (the
“Board”) have adopted the Pacer International, Inc. 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), and the shareholders have approved the Plan. 
 The Compensation Committee of the Board has approved the grant of this Nonstatutory Stock Option to Grantee, subject to the terms of the Plan. 
 The Grantee desires to accept this Nonstatutory Stock Option and agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement. 
 Accordingly, upon and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan, the Company hereby grants as of the Date of Grant to the Grantee the Nonstatutory Stock Option described below
(the “Option”) pursuant to Section 6 of the Plan in consideration of the Grantee’s services to the Company. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein have the meaning ascribed to them in the Plan. 

 

	 	A.	Date of Grant: March 5, 201    . 

  

	 	B.	Option, Exercise, Price and Term: up to             shares of the Company’s common stock
(“Option Shares”), par value $0.01 per share, at a per share exercise price equal to $            , the closing price on the Date of Grant. The number of Option Shares and the
exercise price are subject to future adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events as provided in the Plan. The Option is not intended to qualify for federal income tax purposes as an Incentive Stock Option within the meaning of
Section 422 of the Code. 

  

	 	C.	Vesting Schedule: The Option will vest and become exercisable for 100% of the total number of Option Shares on the third anniversary of the Date of Grant,
subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan. Except as set forth below, vesting of the Option will cease, and the unvested Option will terminate, as of the date on which Grantee’s Continuous Status as an Employee or
Consultant terminates. 

  

	 	D.	Acceleration of Vesting; Forefeiture of Unvested Options. 

 (a) Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control, the unvested Option will be immediately vest as follows unless an earlier date for vesting is determined by the Administrator: on the
earlier of (i) the third anniversary of the Date of Grant, or (ii) the earliest of the following to occur: 
  

	 	(A)	the 18-month anniversary of the Change in Control; 

  

	 	(B)	the death or Disability of the Grantee within 18 months after the Change in Control; 

	 	(C)	the Termination of Employment of the Grantee by the Company without Cause within 18 months after the Change in Control; or 

 

	 	(D)	the Termination of Employment by the Grantee for Good Reason within 18 months after the Change in Control. 

(b) Death or Disability of Grantee Prior to a Change in Control. In the event of the death or Disability of the Grantee prior to
the occurrence of a Change in Control, the unvested Option will immediately vest. 
 (c) Termination without Cause Prior to a
Change in Control. Upon a Termination of Employment of the Grantee by the Company without Cause prior to the occurrence of a Change in Control, the unvested Options will be forfeited immediately. 

(d) Other Termination. In the event of any other Termination of Employment prior to vesting (including for illustration,
resignation, retirement or termination for Cause), the unvested Options will be forfeited immediately. 
  

	 	E.	 Option Term. Effect of Death, Disability, Retirement and Termination of Service on Expiration of Awards. The term of the option (the
“Option Term”) will commence on the Date of Grant and expire on the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Date of Grant, unless sooner terminated, canceled or forfeited as provided in this Agreement or in the Plan. The unexercised portion of the Option granted under this Agreement
will automatically terminate and will become null and void and be of no further force or effect upon the first to occur of the following: 

  

	 	(a)	the three-month anniversary of the date on which Grantee’s Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant terminates for any reason other than

  

	 	i.	the Retirement, death or Disability of the Grantee or

	 	iii.	the Termination of Employment by the Grantee for Good Reason within 18 months after the Change in Control. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such Grantee dies after the date on which his Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant terminates
but before the three-month anniversary thereof, the unexercised portion of such Option will automatically terminate and become null and void and be of no further force or effect upon the 12-month anniversary of the date on which Grantee’s
Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant terminated; 
  

	 	(b)	the 12-month anniversary of the date on which Grantee’s Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant terminates due to Grantee’s death or Disability;

  

	 	(c)	the expiration date of the Option Term (for avoidance of doubt, including if the Grantee’s Continuous Status as an Employee or Consultant terminates due to
