PURPOSE |
This Performance Share Award Program (this “Program”) provides for the grant of Performance Share Awards (as defined below) to Employees under the 2014 Equity Participation Plan of Civeo Corporation, as amended and restated July 17, 2015, and as thereafter amended from time to time (the “Plan”). The purpose of this Program is to promote the interests of Civeo Corporation (the “Company”) and its stockholders by motivating key employees of the Company and its affiliates to produce outstanding results, encouraging superior performance, increasing productivity, and aiding in the ability to attract and retain such key employees through Performance Share Award opportunities. The Program is intended to provide the Company with the ability to grant qualified performance-based compensation under Section 162(m)(4)(c) of the Code, and shall be administered and interpreted with respect to Performance Share Awards intended to qualify as such so to ensure such compliance.
|

PROGRAM GUIDELINES. |
The administration of this Program and any potential financial remuneration to come as a result of its implementation is subject to the determination by the Committee that the performance goals for the applicable periods have been achieved. This Program is an additional compensation program designed to encourage Program participants (“Participants”) to exceed specified objective performance targets for the designated period. Payments under this Program will be made upon approval by the Committee after it reviews the performance results for the designated period.
|

PERFORMANCE TARGETS. |
4.1 Performance Targets. Performance Share Awards will be earned in amounts equal to between 0% to 200% of the Participant’s target Performance Share Award, based on the Payout Percentage associated with the Performance Measure over the Performance Period (subject to the vesting requirements described below), as follows:

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Performance Measure yields a Payout Percentage of 0%, the Participants will not earn the Performance Share Awards for the respective Performance Period. If more than one member of the Performance Comparator Group, as a result of a business combination or other transaction, ceases to exist and/or ceases to have publicly traded common stock, the Committee may adjust the absolute rank associated with the range of implied percentile rankings described above as determined in its discretion to be appropriate to reflect the removal of such members from the Performance Comparator Group. Where a member of the Performance Comparator Group is unable to report financial results for the complete Performance Period for reasons including but not limited to insolvency, it shall not be removed from the Performance Comparator Group until the end of the respective Performance Period.

GRANT AND PAYOUT OF PERFORMANCE SHARE AWARDS. |
A Participant’s designated target Performance Share Award shall be determined under criteria established or approved by the Committee. In the discretion of the Committee, different target Performance Share Awards may be established for Participants. A Participant’s target Performance Share Award will be set forth in an Award Agreement and communicated to the Participant. The amount of Performance Share Award, if any, a Participant may receive will depend upon the Performance Measure achieved, as described in Section 4, as determined by the Committee. Payment of the Performance Share Award shall be made in the form designated in the Participant’s Award Agreement no later than the fifteenth day of the third month following the end of the Performance Period, subject to earlier forfeiture or payment as provided in Section 7. For the avoidance of doubt, a Performance Share Award may be settled in cash or Common Shares as determined in the Committee’s sole discretion.
|
7. |
VESTING REQUIREMENTS. |
7.1 Termination of Employment. A Participant's termination of employment for any reason, including termination without cause, prior to the payment of the Performance Share Award will result in the Participant’s forfeiture of any right, title or interest in any payment of the Performance Share Award under this Program without consideration or compensation, except as expressly set forth below:
|
a. |
If a Participant’s employment is terminated due to death or Disability, then the Participant will be entitled to a payment at the end of the Performance Period as provided in Section 6 based on the Payout Percentage achieved for the Performance Period, but prorated based on the number of days employed in the Performance Period prior to termination of employment. |
|
b. |
If a Participant’s employment is terminated due to Retirement, then the Participant will be entitled to a payment at the end of the Performance Period as provided in Section 6 based on the Payout Percentage achieved for the Performance Period, but prorated based on the number of days employed in the Performance Period prior to termination of employment. |
|
c. |
The requirement that a Participant remain employed for the entire Performance Period may be waived by the Committee, in its sole discretion; provided, that no such forfeitures shall be waived to the extent such waiver would cause a Performance Share Award intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code to fail to so qualify. |
7.2 Change of Control. If a Change of Control occurs prior to the end of the Performance Period, then the Payout Percentage will be determined by the Committee as if the date of the Change of Control is the last day of the Performance Period. In determining the Payout Percentage, the Performance Measure to be applied will be that which is attained through the date of Change of Control. Payout of Performance Share Awards will made following the completion of the Performance Period as provided in Section 6, subject to the Participant’s continued employment through the end of the Performance Period; provided, however, that if the Participant’s employment is terminated (i) by the Company without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason or (ii) as a result of the Participants death or Disability, in either case following a Change of Control and prior to the payout of Performance Share Awards, then the Participant will be entitled to payout of the Performance Share Award (A) in the case of a termination within two years following a Change of Control that constitutes a “change in control event” within the meaning of Code Section 409A, within 15 days following termination of employment or (B) in all other cases, at the completion of the Performance Period as provided in Section 6, without regard to any obligation to remain employed.

8. |
AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. |
The Committee, at its sole discretion, reserves the right to amend this Program and to terminate this Program at any time; provided, however, that no such amendment or termination shall adversely affect the rights of any Participant who has received a Performance Share Award grant prior to the date of such amendment or termination without the consent of such Participant.

b. |
Notwithstanding any provision of the Program to the contrary, if the Participant is identified by the Company as a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) on the date on which the Participant has a “separation from service” (other than due to death) within the meaning of Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(h), the Performance Share Awards payable or settled on account of a separation from service that are deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A shall be paid or settled on the earliest of (i) the first business day following the expiration of six months from the Participant’s separation from service, (ii) the date of the Participant’s death, or (iii) such earlier date as complies with the requirements of Code Section 409A. |
