Award of Performance Units

On January 3, 2012 Gibraltar Industries, Inc. (the “Company”), acting pursuant to the recommendation of the Company’s Compensation Committee, made awards of Performance Units under the Company’s 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Under the form of award of the Performance Units (the “Award”), a recipient (the “Recipient”) is granted Performance Units that may be converted into cash if the Company achieves certain targeted levels of total shareholder return (“Company TSR”) compared to the total shareholder return of the Standard & Poors 600 Small Cap Index (“S&P 600 TSR”). Consistent with the Plan, the number of Performance Units which the Recipient is eligible to receive pursuant to the Award may be increased up to a maximum of 200% of the targeted award or decreased to the extent that the Company TSR exceeds or is less than the S&P 600 TSR.

Under the Award the Company TSR is evaluated over a performance period beginning January 1, 2012 and ending December 31, 2012 (the “Performance Period”). The Company TSR and S&P 600 TSR applicable to the Award in the Performance Period are determined according to a formula set forth in the Award.

This description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms and conditions of the form of the Award, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
