THIS RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of the Grant Date specified above, is entered into by and between Jason Industries, Inc. (f/k/a/ Quinpario Acquisition Corp.), a corporation organized in the State of Delaware (the “Company”), and the Participant specified above, pursuant to the Jason Industries, Inc. 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as in effect and as amended from time to time (the “Plan”), which is administered by the Committee;
WHEREAS, the Company has entered into an Employment Agreement with the Participant, dated effective as of __________________________ (the “Employment Agreement”), pursuant to which, if the Participant purchases shares of Common Stock (the “Purchased Shares”) during a limited period specified in the Employment Agreement, then the Company will grant a restricted stock unit award, within thirty (30) days following the date of such purchase, for a number of shares having a grant date value (measured as of the date of purchase of the Purchased Shares) equal to the fair market value of the Purchased Shares (subject to a limit specified in the Employment Agreement);
WHEREAS, the Participant has purchased Purchased Shares; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with the terms of the Employment Agreement, the Company desires to grant the Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) provided herein to the Participant.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto hereby mutually covenant and agree as follows:
1.Incorporation By Reference; Plan Document Receipt. This Agreement is subject in all respects to the terms and provisions of the Plan (including, without limitation, any amendments thereto adopted at any time and from time to time unless such amendments are expressly intended not to apply to the Award provided hereunder), all of which terms and provisions are made a part of and incorporated in this Agreement as if they were each expressly set forth herein. Any capitalized term not defined in this Agreement shall have the same meaning as is ascribed thereto in the Plan. The Participant hereby acknowledges receipt of a true copy of the Plan and that the Participant has read the Plan carefully and fully understands its content. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall control.
2.Grant of Restricted Stock Unit Award. The Company hereby grants to the Participant, as of the Grant Date specified above, the number of RSUs specified above. Except as otherwise provided by the Plan, the Participant agrees and understands that nothing contained in this Agreement provides, or is intended to provide, the Participant with any protection against potential future dilution of
the Participant’s interest in the Company for any reason, and no adjustments shall be made for dividends in cash or other property, distributions or other rights in respect of the shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs, except as otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan or this Agreement.
3.Vesting.
(a)In General. The RSUs that have not previously been forfeited pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof shall vest in full on the third anniversary of the Grant Date, provided that the Participant has not incurred a Termination of Employment prior to such anniversary. There shall be no proportionate or partial vesting in the period prior to the third anniversary of the Grant Date. The foregoing provisions of this Section 3(a) are subject to the provisions of Sections 3(b), 3(c) and 3(d) hereof.
(b)Forfeiture Upon Sale of Purchased Shares. If the Participant Transfers any shares of Common Stock held by the Participant prior to the date on which the RSUs are fully vested, a proportionate number of RSUs corresponding to the portion of the Purchased Shares represented by the Transferred shares of Common Stock (if any) shall be automatically forfeited and cancelled for no value without any consideration being paid therefor and otherwise without any further action of the Company whatsoever. The Participant shall inform the Company in advance of any contemplated Transfer of any shares of Common Stock, and the Company shall determine, in its sole discretion, whether such shares represent Purchased Shares and, if so, the number of RSUs to be forfeited in connection with such Transfer.
(c)Certain Terminations of Employment. In the event of the Participant’s Termination of Employment pursuant to Section 4(a) (“Qualifying Termination”) or Section 4(b) (“Qualifying Termination in Connection with a Change in Control”) of the Employment Agreement, the RSUs shall be treated as described in the applicable provisions of the Employment Agreement. If the Employment Agreement has been terminated by the consent of the parties prior to such Termination of Employment, such provisions shall be applied as if the Employment Agreement were still in effect except to the extent the parties have otherwise agreed. Upon any other Termination of Employment other than due to the Participant’s death or Disability, any RSUs that have not previously been vested or forfeited shall be automatically forfeited and cancelled for no value without any consideration being paid therefor and otherwise without any further action of the Company whatsoever. If the Participant’s Termination of Employment is due to the Participant’s death or Disability, then the RSUs shall become fully vested as of the date of such Termination.
(d)Termination of Unvested RSUs; Other Forfeiture. Any portion of the RSUs that does not become vested in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3 shall be automatically forfeited and cancelled for no value without any consideration being paid therefor and otherwise without any further action of the Company whatsoever. For the avoidance of doubt, any portion of the RSUs that does not become vested on or prior to the third anniversary of the Grant Date shall be automatically forfeited and cancelled as of such date for no value without any consideration being paid therefor and otherwise without any further action of the Company whatsoever.
4.Delivery of Shares. Within thirty (30) days following the date of vesting of RSUs, the Company shall issue to the Participant the number of shares of Common Stock, free and clear of all restrictions (other than as may apply under Section 9) that correspond to the number of RSUs that have become so vested on the applicable vesting date.
5.Dividends; Rights as Stockholder. Cash dividends on shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder shall be credited to a dividend book entry account on behalf of the Participant with respect to each RSU granted to the Participant, provided that such cash dividends shall not be deemed to be reinvested
2
in shares of Common Stock and shall be held uninvested and without interest and paid in cash at the same time that the shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs are delivered to the Participant in accordance with the provisions hereof. Stock dividends on shares of Common Stock shall be credited to a dividend book entry account on behalf of the Participant with respect to each RSU granted to the Participant, provided that such stock dividends shall be paid in shares of Common Stock at the same time that the shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs are delivered to the Participant in accordance with the provisions hereof. For the sake of clarity, in the event any portion of the unvested RSUs is forfeited and cancelled in accordance with this agreement or the Plan, any accrued dividends on shares of Common Stock underlying such forfeited RSUs shall be automatically forfeited for no value without any consideration being paid therefor and otherwise without any further action of the Company whatsoever. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock covered by any RSU unless and until the Participant has become the holder of record of such shares.
6.Non-Transferability. No portion of the RSUs may be sold, assigned, transferred, encumbered, hypothecated or pledged by the Participant, other than to the Company as a result of forfeiture of the RSUs as provided herein, unless and until payment is made in respect of vested RSUs in accordance with the provisions hereof and the Participant has become the holder of record of the vested shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder.
7.Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the choice of law principles thereof.
8.Withholding of Tax. The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require the Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, local and foreign taxes of any kind (including, but not limited to, the Participant’s FICA and SDI obligations) which the Company, in its sole discretion, deems necessary to be withheld or remitted to comply with the Code and/or any other applicable law, rule or regulation with respect to the RSUs and, if the Participant fails to do so, the Company may otherwise refuse to issue or transfer any shares of Common Stock otherwise required to be issued pursuant to this Agreement. The foregoing provisions of this Section 8 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Participant may direct the Company to satisfy any such required withholding obligation with regard to the Participant by reducing the amount of cash or shares of Common Stock, having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the statutory minimum withholding obligation, otherwise deliverable to the Participant pursuant to Section 4.
9.Legend. The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable federal, state or foreign securities law restrictions on all certificates representing shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Agreement, consistent with issuances to holders of shares of Common Stock other than pursuant to this Agreement. The Participant shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to this Agreement in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section 9.
10.Securities Representations. This Agreement is being entered into by the Company in reliance upon the following express representations and warranties of the Participant. The Participant hereby acknowledges, represents and warrants that:

3
(b)If the Participant is deemed an affiliate within the meaning of Rule 144 of the Securities Act, the shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder must be held indefinitely unless an exemption from any applicable resale restrictions is available or the Company files an additional registration statement (or a “re-offer prospectus”) with regard to such shares of Common Stock and the Company is under no obligation to register such shares of Common Stock (or to file a “re-offer prospectus”).
(c)If the Participant is deemed an affiliate within the meaning of Rule 144 of the Securities Act, the Participant understands that (i) the exemption from registration under Rule 144 will not be available unless (A) a public trading market then exists for the Common Stock of the Company, (B) adequate information concerning the Company is then available to the public, and (C) other terms and conditions of Rule 144 or any exemption therefrom are complied with, and (ii) any sale of the shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder may be made only in limited amounts in accordance with the terms and conditions of Rule 144 or any exemption therefrom.

The Company shall not be obligated to issue the RSUs or any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement if any such issuance would violate any such requirements; provided, in such event as the Company is prohibited from issuing shares of Common Stock, the Company shall pay to the Participant (unless otherwise prohibited
