6. Transferability of PBA; No Incidents of Ownership; Dividend Equivalents

(a) Except as provided in this Section 6(a), the PBA may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any attempt to transfer the PBA in contravention of this Section 6(a) is void ab initio. The PBA shall not be subject to execution, attachment or other process.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee shall be permitted to transfer the PBA to members of his or her immediate family (i.e., children, grandchildren or spouse), trusts for the benefit of such family members, and partnerships or other entities whose only partners or equity owners are such family members; provided, however, that no consideration can be paid for the transfer of the PBA and the transferee of the PBA must agree to be subject to all conditions applicable to the PBA (including all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement) prior to transfer.

(b) The Grantee shall not possess any incidents of ownership (including, without limitation, dividend and voting rights) in shares of Common Stock in respect of this PBA unless and until the Grantee becomes the holder of record of the PBA Shares.

(c) On each dividend record date, for each share of Common Stock underlying the PBA Target Share Award and each Additional Restricted Unit (as defined below), the Grantee shall be entitled to dividend equivalents in an amount equal to the value of any cash or stock dividends paid by the Company on one share of Common Stock. In the case of cash dividends, the Company shall credit the Grantee, on each dividend payment date, an additional number of PBA Shares (“Additional Restricted Units”) equal to (i) divided by (ii), where (i) equals the total of the PBA Target Share Award and Additional Restricted Units, if any, subject to this Agreement on such date multiplied by the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Common Stock on such date, and (ii) equals the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on such date. If a dividend is paid to holders of Common Stock in shares, the Company shall credit the Grantee, on each dividend payment date, Additional Restricted Units equal to the total of the PBA Target Share Award and Additional Restricted Units, if any, subject to this Agreement on such date multiplied by the share dividend paid per share of Common Stock on such date. If fractions of a share would result from the calculation of any Additional Restricted Units payable to the Grantee, the amount of Additional Restricted Units shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares.  Following the completion of the Long-Term Performance Period, the number of Additional Restricted Units shall be adjusted to reflect the attainment of the Long-Term Performance Measures in the same manner as the PBA Target Share Award.  If fractions of a share would result from any such adjustment, the number of Additional Restricted Units resulting from such adjustment shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares.  Additional Restricted Units are subject to the same restrictions, including but not limited to vesting, transferability, forfeiture and payment restrictions that apply to the underlying PBA to which they relate.

7. Forfeiture of PBA and PBA Shares on Certain Conditions .  Grantee hereby acknowledges that the Hexcel Group has given or will give Grantee access to certain confidential, proprietary or trade secret information, which the Hexcel Group considers extremely valuable and which provides the Hexcel Group with a competitive advantage in the markets in which the Hexcel Group develops or sells its products.  The Grantee further acknowledges that the use of such information by Grantee other than in furtherance of Grantee’s job responsibilities with the Hexcel Group would be extremely detrimental to the Hexcel Group and would cause immediate and irreparable harm to the Hexcel Group.  In

3

exchange for access to such confidential, proprietary or trade secret information, Grantee hereby agrees as follows:

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, should the Grantee breach the “Protective Condition” (as defined in Section 7(b)), then (I) the PBA and any PBA Shares distributed to the Grantee pursuant to this Agreement, shall immediately be forfeited upon such breach, (II) the Grantee shall immediately deliver to the Company the number of PBA Shares previously distributed to the Grantee during the 180-day period prior to the termination of the Grantee’s employment with any member of the Hexcel Group and (III) if any PBA Shares were sold during the 180-day period immediately prior to such termination of employment in an arms’ length transaction or disposed of in any other manner, the Grantee shall immediately deliver to the Company all proceeds of such arms’ length sales, and if disposed of otherwise than in arms’ length sale, the Fair Market Value of such PBA Shares determined at the time of disposition. The PBA Shares and proceeds to be delivered under clauses (II) and (III) may be reduced to reflect the Grantee’s liability for taxes payable on such PBA Shares and/or proceeds.

(b) “Protective Condition” shall mean that (I) the Grantee complies with all terms and provisions of any obligation of confidentiality contained in a written agreement with any member of the Hexcel Group signed by the Grantee, or otherwise imposed on Grantee by applicable law, and (II) during the time Grantee is employed by any member of the Hexcel Group and for a period of one year following the termination of the Grantee’s employment with any member of the Hexcel Group, the Grantee does not (a) engage, in any capacity, directly or indirectly, including but not limited to as employee, agent, consultant, manager, executive, owner or stockholder (except as a passive investor holding less than a 5% equity interest in any enterprise), in any business enterprise then engaged in competition with the business conducted by the Hexcel Group anywhere in the world; provided, however, that the Grantee may be employed by a competitor of the Hexcel Group within such one year period so long as the duties and responsibilities of Grantee’s position with such competitor do not involve the same or substantially similar duties and responsibilities as those performed by the Grantee for any member of the Hexcel Group in a business segment of the new employer which competes with the business segment(s) with which the Grantee worked or had supervisory authority over while employed by any member of the Hexcel Group during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the date on which the Grantee’s employment terminates, (b) employ or attempt to employ, solicit or attempt to solicit, or negotiate or arrange the employment or engagement with Grantee or any other Person, of any Person who was at the date of termination of the Grantee’s employment, or within twelve (12) months prior to that date had been, a member of the senior management of any member of the Hexcel Group with whom the Grantee worked closely or was an employee with whom the Grantee worked closely or had supervisory authority over during the twelve months immediately preceding the date on which the Grantee’s employment terminates or (c) disparage any member of the Hexcel Group, any of its respective current or former directors, officers or employees or any of its respective products.

(c) This paragraph (c) shall apply if the Grantee is an executive officer or officer (as defined in Rule 3b-7or Rule 3b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). In accordance with the Company’s policy adopted by the Board on the Potential Impact on Compensation from Executive Misconduct, if it is determined, within eighteen (18) full calendar months after the date on which the Grantee became entitled to receive any PBA Shares, that the Grantee engaged in misconduct resulting in the inaccurate reporting of the Company’s financial results, and the number of PBA Shares the Grantee became entitled to receive (the “Incorrect Number of Shares”) was greater than the number of PBA Shares that would have been awarded, paid or

4

delivered to, or realized by, the Grantee , if calculated based on the accurate reporting of financial results (the “Correct Number of Shares”), then (I) if the Grantee has not yet received the PBA Shares, the number of PBA Shares to which the Grantee shall be entitled shall be immediately reduced from the Incorrect Number of Shares to the Correct Number of Shares, (II) if the Grantee has received the PBA Shares, then the Grantee shall immediately deliver to the Company that number of PBA Shares equal to the difference between the Incorrect Number of Shares and the Correct Number of Shares (the “Forfeited Shares”), and (III) if the Grantee has received the PBA Shares and sold any of the Forfeited Shares in an arms’ length transaction or disposed of such shares in any other manner , the Grantee shall immediately deliver to the Company all proceeds from the arms’ length sales of such Forfeited Shares and , if disposed of otherwise than in an arms’ length sale, the Fair Market Value of such shares determined at the time of disposition . The PBA Shares and proceeds to be delivered under clauses (II) and (III) may be reduced to reflect the Grantee’s liability for taxes payable on such PBA Shares and/or proceeds.

(d) In the event any of Section 7(a), Section 7(b) or Section 7(c) is unenforceable in the jurisdiction in which the Grantee is employed on the date hereof, such section nevertheless shall be enforceable to the full extent permitted by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Company shall have the ability to seek remedies against the Grantee arising from any activity prohibited by this Section 7.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, whenever the Company may be entitled or required by law, Company policy or the requirements of an exchange on which the Company’s shares are listed for trading, to cause an Award to be forfeited or to recoup compensation received by the Grantee pursuant to the Plan, including recovery of shares distributed or the proceeds of shares sold or transferred, the Grantee shall accept such forfeiture and comply with any Company request or demand for recoupment of compensation received. Without limiting the preceding sentence, the PBA granted hereunder shall be subject to the Company’s Clawback Policy (CP No. 1.7) or any similar successor policy adopted by the Company.

8. Issuance of PBA Shares .  Subject to Section 11(e) below, any PBA Shares to be issued to the Grantee under this PBA (i) shall be delivered to the Grantee promptly, but in no event later than ten days, after such time as the Grantee becomes entitled to receive such PBA Shares, and (ii) may be issued in either certificated form or in uncertificated form (via the Direct Registration System or otherwise).

9. Taxes .  Upon the distribution of PBA Shares to the Grantee, absent a notification by the Grantee to the Company (or an agent designated by the Company to administer the Company’s stock incentive program) which is received by the Company or its agent at least three business days prior to the date of such distribution, to the effect that the Grantee will pay to the Company or its Affiliate by check or wire transfer any taxes (“Withholding Taxes”) the Company reasonably determines it or its Affiliate is required to withhold under applicable tax laws with respect to such shares, the Company will reduce the number of PBA Shares to be distributed to the Grantee in connection with such distribution by a number of PBA Shares the Fair Market Value of which (as of the date the Grantee becomes entitled to receive such shares) is equal to the total amount of Withholding Taxes; provided , however , that, even in the absence of such notification from the Grantee, the Committee shall retain the discretion at all times to require the Grantee to pay to the Company or its Affiliate by check or wire transfer the Withholding Taxes. In the event the Grantee elects, or is required by the Committee, to pay to the Company or its Affiliate the Withholding Taxes with respect to such shares by check or wire
