  Form of Award Agreements

  The initial grants of the NQSOs and RSUs were made,
  as applicable, pursuant to (i) the Form of Great Lakes Dredge &
  Dock Corporation Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement pursuant to the LTIP ("Option
  Award Agreement")
  , a copy
  of which is attached hereto as
  Exhibit 10.1
  and incorporated herein
  by reference, and (ii) the Form of
  Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Corporation Restricted Stock Unit Award
  Agreement pursuant to the LTIP ("Unit Award Agreement"), a copy of which
  is attached hereto as
  Exhibit 10.2
  and incorporated herein by
  reference.
  Pursuant to the Option Award Agreement, NQSOs
  granted to eligible employees of the Company under the Option Award Agreement
  generally vest and become exercisable in three equal annual installments
  commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date; provided, however, that
  the recipient of the grant is

  employed by the Company on each such annual vesting
  date.
  For a complete description of the terms of

  Pursuant
  to the Unit Award Agreement, vesting of the RSUs will generally occur three
  years after the grant date ("Vesting Date"), provided that the holder is
  continuously employed with the Company on or through such date.  On the Vesting Date, subject to certain
  restrictions or delays that may be imposed by applicable securities laws and/or
  the Company's policies on securities trading and disclosure of confidential
  information, each RSU will be converted into one share of common stock of the
  Company for no additional consideration. 
  RSUs outstanding at the time the Company declares a dividend on its
  common stock will receive a dividend equivalent in cash equal to the dividend
  that would have been received had the RSUs been converted into shares of the Company's
  common stock on the record date of such dividend.  For a complete description
  of the terms of the Unit Award Agreement please refer to the full text of the
