This RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD (“Award”), is granted as of the Award Date, by AMETEK, Inc., a Delaware corporation, to the Recipient.
W I T N E S S E T H :
WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan of AMETEK, Inc. (the “Plan”), pursuant to which the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Committee”) may, inter alia, award shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Shares”), to such key employees of the Company as the Committee may determine, and subject to such terms, conditions and restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Plan, the Committee has awarded to the Recipient a restricted stock award, subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in the Plan and in this Award;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1.Pursuant to the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Recipient on the Award Date, a Stock Award, and such Shares, the “Restricted Shares,” are subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth in the Plan and in this Award. On the Award Date, the Company shall issue one or more certificates in the name of the Recipient for the number of Shares granted as per this Award and as recorded in the Company’s stock administrator’s system, and such Shares shall be held by the transfer agent until such time as the Shares become vested and nonforfeitable. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Award shall have the same meanings as defined in the Plan.
2.The Restricted Shares shall become vested and nonforfeitable on the earliest of:
a.with respect to one-third of the Restricted Shares awarded (and any dividends with respect thereto) on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the Award Date, subject to the Recipient’s continuous employment with the Company (or any Affiliate) through each such date;
b.the death or Disability of the Recipient; or
c.the Recipient’s termination of employment with the Company (or its Affiliate) as a result of and concurrent with a Change of Control.
Except to the extent, if any, that the Restricted Shares shall have become vested and nonforfeitable pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph 2, if the Recipient voluntarily or involuntarily leaves the employ of the Company and its Affiliates prior to the third anniversary of the Award Date, such unvested Restricted Shares (and any dividends, distributions and adjustments retained by the Company with respect thereto) shall be forfeited.
3.The Recipient shall not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, by operation of law or otherwise (collectively, “transfer”) any Restricted Shares, or

any interest therein. The Company shall not be required (a) to transfer on its books any of the Restricted Shares which shall have been sold or transferred in violation of any of the provisions set forth in this Award or the Plan or (b) to treat as owner of such Shares or to pay dividends to any transferee to whom any such Shares shall have been sold or transferred. Each certificate representing ownership of Shares acquired pursuant to this Award shall, prior to the expiration or lapse of all restrictions or conditions on such Shares under this Award have affixed thereto, in addition to any legends required under the Plan or under federal or state securities laws, a legend in substantially the following form:
“Transfer of the securities is restricted by that certain restricted stock award dated as of the Award Date, between AMETEK, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and the registered holder hereof, and certain terms of the 2020 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan of AMETEK, Inc., copies of which award and plan are on file at the principal corporate offices of AMETEK, Inc.”
4.Prior to the lapse of the restrictions on the transferability of the Restricted Shares, the Recipient shall have all other rights and privileges of a beneficial and record owner with respect to such Shares, including, without limitation, voting rights and the right to receive dividends, distributions and adjustments with respect to such Shares; provided, however, that any dividends, distributions and adjustments with respect to the Restricted Shares, plus interest credited on any such cash dividends, shall be retained by the Company for the Recipient’s account and for delivery to the Recipient, together with the stock certificate representing such Shares, only as and when such Restricted Shares have become vested and nonforfeitable, and in no event later than two-and-a-half months after the end of the calendar year in which the Restricted Shares become vested and nonforfeitable. Cash dividends declared on forfeited Shares shall be forfeited as and when such Shares are forfeited. For purposes of this paragraph 4, interest shall be credited from the date a dividend with respect to the Restricted Shares is made to the date on which the Company distributes such amounts to the Recipient, at the five-year Treasury Note rate, plus 0.5%, as such rate is set forth in the Wall Street Journal as of the first business day of each calendar quarter.
5.If prior to the expiration or lapse of all of the restrictions and conditions on the Restricted Shares under this Award, there shall be declared and paid a stock dividend upon the Restricted Shares or if the Restricted Shares shall be split up, converted, exchanged, reclassified or in any way substituted for, the Recipient shall receive, subject to the same restrictions and conditions as the original Restricted Shares subject to this Award, the same securities or other property as are received by the holders of the Company’s Shares pursuant to such stock dividend, split up, conversion, exchange, reclassification or substitution. If the Recipient receives any securities or property of the Company (or any acquiring entity) pursuant to this paragraph 5, such securities or other property shall thereafter be deemed to be “Shares” and “Restricted Shares” within the meaning of this Award.
6.If, with respect to the Restricted Shares (and any dividends, distributions and adjustments to such Shares), the Company (or any Affiliate) shall be required to withhold amounts under applicable federal, state, local or foreign laws, rules or regulations, including income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to the Recipient’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Recipient (“Tax-Related Items”), the Company will address all Tax-Related Items in accordance with Section 14 of the Plan. The Recipient acknowledges that the Recipient has been informed of the availability of making an election in accordance with Section 83(b) of the Code, as

In the event that the Recipient files such an election with the Internal Revenue Service, the Recipient agrees to provide a copy of such election to the Company promptly.
7.The Company and the Recipient each hereby agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan.
8.Any notices or other communications given in connection with this Award shall be sent either by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or by overnight mail, facsimile, or electronic mail to the Company and Recipient address or number of record or to such changed address or number as to which either party has given notice to the other party in accordance with this paragraph 8. All notices shall be deemed given when so mailed, or if sent by facsimile or electronic mail, when electronic confirmation of the transmission is received, except that a notice of change of address shall be deemed given when received.
