Committee, approved grants of restricted stock units (&#147;RSUs&#148;) and performance share awards (&#147;PSAs&#148;) for the following Named Executive Officers and other senior members of management of the Company in the amounts set forth below.
Pursuant to these long-term incentive grants, each Named Executive Officer and senior member of management received an award of RSUs and PSAs valued at an amount equal to a specific percentage of his or her respective annual base salary, with 25
percent of each award represented by RSUs and 75 percent of each award represented by PSAs. The RSUs awarded will vest ratably over a three year period based upon continued service with the Company. The PSAs awarded will vest on January&nbsp;15,
2017 based on the Company&#146;s total shareholder return for 2014 &#150; 2016 as compared with a specified group of peer companies. The actual number of PSAs which will vest will be determined based on the performance level achieved and may be
equal to, greater than, or less than the number of PSAs specified below. In the event of a &#147;change in control&#148; (as defined in the Agreements), vesting will be accelerated pro rata to reflect time elapsed and performance to date. The
foregoing descriptions of the terms of the RSU and PSA awards are qualified by reference to the full text of the forms of Restricted Stock Unit Agreement and Performance Share Award Agreement (the &#147;Agreements&#148;), which are filed herewith as

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">1. <U>Grant</U>. Northwest Pipe Company (the &#147;Company&#148;) hereby grants you, XXXX (the &#147;Employee&#148;), in your position as
XXXX, an award of XXX Restricted Stock Units under the Company&#146;s 2014 Long Term Incentive Grant (the &#147;2014 LTI Grant&#148;), subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the 2014 LTI Grant and the Company&#146;s
stockholder approved 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the &#147;Plan&#148;). The date of this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (the &#147;Agreement&#148;) is May&nbsp;29, 2014 (the &#147;Grant Date&#148;). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms
used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">2. <U>Company&#146;s Obligation to Pay</U>. Unless and until the
Restricted Stock Units have vested in the manner set forth in Sections 3 through 5, the Employee will have no right to payment of such Restricted Stock Units. Prior to actual payment of any vested Restricted Stock Units, such Restricted Stock Units
will represent an unsecured obligation. Payment of any vested Restricted Stock Units shall be made in whole shares of the Company&#146;s common stock (&#147;Shares&#148;) only. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">3. <U>Vesting Schedule/Period of Restriction</U>. Except as provided in Sections&nbsp;4 and 5, and subject to Section&nbsp;7, the Restricted
Stock Units awarded by this Agreement shall vest in accordance with the Vesting Schedule attached hereto as Appendix&nbsp;A. Restricted Stock Units shall not vest in the Employee unless the Employee shall have been continuously employed by the
Company or by one of its Subsidiaries from the Grant Date until the date the Restricted Stock Units vest in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">4. <U>Change in Control.</U> In the event a change in control of the Company (as defined in Appendix B) occurs at any time prior to the last
vesting date, a pro-rata number of Restricted Stock Units will be calculated based on time elapsed as of the date of the change in control, and those Restricted Stock Units will be immediately vested. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">5. <U>Committee Discretion</U>. The Compensation Committee of the Company&#146;s Board of Directors (the &#147;Committee&#148;), in its
discretion, may accelerate the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the Restricted Stock Units at any time, subject to the terms of the Plan. If so accelerated, such Restricted Stock Units will be considered as having
vested as of the date specified by the Committee. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">6. <U>Payment after Vesting</U>. Any Restricted Stock Units that vest in accordance
with Sections&nbsp;3 through 5 will be paid to the Employee as soon as practicable following the date of vesting, subject to Section&nbsp;9. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">7. <U>Clawback provision</U>. If the Company&#146;s financial statements are the subject of a restatement due to misconduct, to the extent
permitted by governing law, in all appropriate cases, the Company will seek reimbursement of excess share compensation granted to you per this Agreement. &#147;Excess share compensation&#148; means the positive difference, if any, between
(i)&nbsp;the award paid to you and (ii)&nbsp;the award that would have been paid to you had the award been calculated based on the Company&#146;s financial statements as restated. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">8. <U>Forfeiture</U>. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the balance of
the Restricted Stock Units that have not vested pursuant to Sections&nbsp;3 through 5 at the time of the Employee&#146;s termination of service (with or without cause) will be forfeited and automatically transferred to and reacquired by the Company
at no cost to the Company. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">9. <U>Death of Employee</U>. Any distribution of Shares that vested during Employee&#146;s lifetime which is
to be made to the Employee under this Agreement after the Employee is deceased shall be made to the administrator or executor of the Employee&#146;s estate. Any such administrator or executor must furnish the Company with (a)&nbsp;written notice of
his or her status as transferee, and (b)&nbsp;evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">10. <U>Withholding of Taxes</U>. When Shares are issued as payment for vested Restricted Stock Units, the Company (or the employing
Subsidiary) may withhold a portion of the Shares that have an aggregate market value sufficient to pay federal, state, local and foreign income, social insurance, employment and any other applicable taxes required to be withheld by the Company or
the employing Subsidiary with respect to the Shares, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, either requires or otherwise permits the Employee to make alternate arrangements satisfactory to the Company for such withholdings in advance of the
arising of any withholding obligations. The number of Shares withheld pursuant to the prior sentence will be rounded up to the nearest whole Share, with no refund for any value of the Shares withheld in excess of the tax obligation as a result of
such rounding. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no Shares will be issued unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Company) have been made by the Employee with respect to the payment of any income and
other taxes which the Company determines must be withheld or collected with respect to such Shares. In addition and to the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company (or the employing Subsidiary) has the right to retain without notice from salary
or other amounts payable to the Employee, cash having a sufficient value to satisfy any tax withholding obligations that the Company determines cannot be satisfied through the withholding of otherwise deliverable Shares. All income and other taxes
related to the Restricted Stock Units award and any Shares delivered in payment thereof are the sole responsibility of the Employee. By accepting this award, the Employee expressly consents to the withholding of Shares and to any additional cash
withholding as provided for in this Section&nbsp;9. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">11. <U>Rights as Shareholder</U>. Neither the Employee nor any person claiming under
or through the Employee will have any of the rights or privileges of a shareholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares (which may be in book entry form) shall have been
issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to the Employee (including through electronic delivery to a brokerage account). After such issuance, recordation and delivery, the Employee will have
all the rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">12. <U>No Effect on Employment</U>. Subject to any employment contract with the Employee, the terms of such employment will be determined from
time to time by the Company, or the Subsidiary employing the Employee, as the case may be, and the Company, or the Subsidiary employing the Employee, as the case may be, will have the right, which is hereby expressly reserved, to terminate or change
the terms of the employment of the Employee at any </P>

or implied promise of continued employment for any period of time. A leave of absence or an interruption in service (including an interruption during military service) authorized or acknowledged by the Company or the Subsidiary employing the
Employee, as the case may be, shall not be deemed a termination of service for the purposes of this Agreement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">13. <U>Address for

privileges conferred hereby may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred or disposed of in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and will not be subject to sale under execution, attachment or similar process, until the
Employee has been issued Shares in payment of the Restricted Stock Units. Upon any attempt to sell, pledge, assign, hypothecate, transfer or otherwise dispose of this grant, or any right or privilege conferred hereby, or upon any attempted sale
under any execution, attachment or similar process, this grant and the rights and privileges conferred hereby immediately will become null and void. </P>

registered under U.S. federal securities laws and will be freely tradable upon receipt. However, an Employee&#146;s subsequent sale of the Shares may be subject to any market blackout-period that may be imposed by the Company and must comply with
the Company&#146;s insider trading policies, and any other applicable securities laws. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">16. <U>Binding Agreement</U>. Subject to the
limitation on the transferability of this grant contained herein, this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">17. <U>Additional Conditions to Issuance of Certificates for Shares</U>. The Company shall not be required to issue any certificate or
certificates for Shares hereunder prior to fulfillment of all the following conditions: (a)&nbsp;the admission of such Shares to listing on all stock exchanges on which such class of stock is then listed; (b)&nbsp;the completion of any registration
or other qualification of such Shares under any U.S. state or federal law or under the rulings or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental regulatory body, which the Committee shall, in its absolute discretion,
deem necessary or advisable; (c)&nbsp;the obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any U.S. state or federal governmental agency, which the Committee shall, in its absolute discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable; and
(d)&nbsp;the lapse of such reasonable period of time following the date of vesting of the Restricted Stock Units as the Committee may establish from time to time for reasons of administrative convenience. </P>

Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules (including, but not limited to, the determination of whether or not any
Restricted Stock Units have vested). All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Committee in good faith will be final and binding upon the Employee, the Company and all other interested persons. No member of the

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">1. <U>Grant</U>. Northwest Pipe Company (the &#147;Company&#148;) hereby grants you, XXXX(the &#147;Employee&#148;), in your position as XXXX,
an award of XXX Performance Shares under the Company&#146;s 2014 Long Term Incentive Grant (the &#147;2014 LTI Grant&#148;), subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the 2014 LTI Grant and the Company&#146;s stockholder approved
2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the &#147;Plan&#148;). The date of this Performance Share Agreement (the &#147;Agreement&#148;) is May&nbsp;29, 2014 (the &#147;Grant Date&#148;). The number of Performance Shares that may vest and the timing of vesting of
the Performance Shares shall depend upon achievement of certain performance goals and </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">2. shall be determined in accordance with the
Performance Matrices attached hereto as Appendix A. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">3. <U>Company&#146;s Obligation to Pay</U>. Unless and until the Performance Shares have vested in the manner set forth in Sections 3 through
5, the Employee will have no right to payment of such Performance Shares. Prior to actual payment of any vested Performance Shares, such Performance Shares will represent an unsecured obligation. Payment of any vested Performance Shares shall be
made in whole shares of the Company&#146;s common stock (&#147;Shares&#148;) only. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">4. <U>Vesting Schedule/Period of Restriction</U>.
Except as provided in Sections&nbsp;4 and 5, and subject to Section&nbsp;7, the Performance Shares awarded by this Agreement shall vest in accordance with the vesting provisions set forth in Appendix A. Performance Shares shall not vest in the
Employee unless the Employee shall have been continuously employed by the Company or by one of its Subsidiaries from the Grant Date until the date the Performance Shares vest in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">5. <U>Change in Control.</U> In the event a change in control of the Company (as defined in Appendix B) occurs at any time prior to the last
vesting date, a pro-rata number of Performance Shares will be calculated based on actual performance and time elapsed as of the date of the change in control, and those Performance Shares will be immediately vested. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">6. <U>Committee Discretion</U>. The Compensation Committee of the Company&#146;s Board of Directors (the &#147;Committee&#148;), in its
discretion, may accelerate the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the Performance Shares at any time, subject to the terms of the Plan. If so accelerated, such Performance Shares will be considered as having vested as
of the date specified by the Committee. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">7. <U>Payment after Vesting</U>. Any Performance Shares that vest in accordance with

Agreement. &#147;Excess share compensation&#148; means the positive difference, if any, between (i)&nbsp;the award paid to you and (ii)&nbsp;the award that would have been paid to you had the
award been calculated based on the Company&#146;s financial statements as restated. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">9. <U>Forfeiture</U>. Notwithstanding any contrary
provision of this Agreement, the balance of the Performance Shares that have not vested pursuant to Sections&nbsp;3 through 5 at the time of the Employee&#146;s termination of service (with or without cause) will be forfeited and automatically
transferred to and reacquired by the Company at no cost to the Company. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">10. <U>Death of Employee</U>. Any distribution of Shares that
vested during Employee&#146;s lifetime which is to be made to the Employee under this Agreement after the Employee is deceased shall be made to the administrator or executor of the Employee&#146;s estate. Any such administrator or executor must
furnish the Company with (a)&nbsp;written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (b)&nbsp;evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">11. <U>Withholding of Taxes</U>. When Shares are issued as payment for vested Performance Shares, the Company (or the employing
Subsidiary) may withhold a portion of the Shares that have an aggregate market value sufficient to pay federal, state, local and foreign income, social insurance, employment and any other applicable taxes required to be withheld by the Company or
the employing Subsidiary with respect to the Shares, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, either requires or otherwise permits the Employee to make alternate arrangements satisfactory to the Company for such withholdings in advance of the
arising of any withholding obligations. The number of Shares withheld pursuant to the prior sentence will be rounded up to the nearest whole Share, with no refund for any value of the Shares withheld in excess of the tax obligation as a result of
such rounding. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no Shares will be issued unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Company) have been made by the Employee with respect to the payment of any income and
other taxes which the Company determines must be withheld or collected with respect to such Shares. In addition and to the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company (or the employing Subsidiary) has the right to retain without notice from salary
or other amounts payable to the Employee, cash having a sufficient value to satisfy any tax withholding obligations that the Company determines cannot be satisfied through the withholding of otherwise deliverable Shares. All income and other taxes
related to the Performance Shares award and any Shares delivered in payment thereof are the sole responsibility of the Employee. By accepting this award, the Employee expressly consents to the withholding of Shares and to any additional cash
withholding as provided for in this Section&nbsp;9. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">12. <U>Rights as Shareholder</U>. Neither the Employee nor any person claiming under
or through the Employee will have any of the rights or privileges of a shareholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares (which may be in book entry form) shall have been
issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to the Employee (including through electronic delivery to a brokerage account). After such issuance, recordation and delivery, the Employee will have
all the rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares. </P>

terms of such employment will be determined from time to time by the Company, or the Subsidiary employing the Employee, as the case may be, and the Company, or the Subsidiary employing the Employee, as the case may be, will have the right, which is
hereby expressly reserved, to terminate or change the terms of the employment of the Employee at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without good cause. The transactions contemplated hereunder and the vesting schedules set forth in the
Appendices do not constitute an express or implied promise of continued employment for any period of time. A leave of absence or an interruption in service (including an interruption during military service) authorized or acknowledged by the Company
or the Subsidiary employing the Employee, as the case may be, shall not be deemed a termination of service for the purposes of this Agreement. </P>

pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred or disposed of in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and will not be subject to sale under execution, attachment or similar process, until the Employee has been issued Shares in payment of
the Performance Shares. Upon any attempt to sell, pledge, assign, hypothecate, transfer or otherwise dispose of this grant, or any right or privilege conferred hereby, or upon any attempted sale under any execution, attachment or similar process,
this grant and the rights and privileges conferred hereby immediately will become null and void. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">16. <U>Restrictions on Sale of
Securities</U>. The Shares issued as payment for vested Performance Shares under this Agreement will be registered under U.S. federal securities laws and will be freely tradable upon receipt. However, an Employee&#146;s subsequent sale of the Shares
may be subject to any market blackout-period that may be imposed by the Company and must comply with the Company&#146;s insider trading policies, and any other applicable securities laws. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">17. <U>Binding Agreement</U>. Subject to the limitation on the transferability of this grant contained herein, this Agreement will be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">18.

Shares to listing on all stock exchanges on which such class of stock is then listed; (b)&nbsp;the completion of any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any U.S. state or federal law or under the rulings or regulations of the

Oregon corporation (the &#147;Company&#148;), considers the establishment and maintenance of a sound and vital management to be essential to protecting and enhancing the best interest of the Company and its shareholders. In this connection, the
Company recognizes that, as is the case with many publicly held corporations, the possibility of a Change in Control may exist and that such possibility, and the uncertainty and questions which it may raise among management, may result in the
departure or distraction of management personnel to the detriment of the Company and its shareholders. Accordingly, the Board of Directors of the Company (the &#147;Board&#148;) has determined that appropriate steps should be taken to reinforce and
encourage the continued attention and dedication of members of the Company&#146;s management to their assigned duties without distraction in circumstances arising from the possibility of a Change in Control of the Company. </P>
