The number of Shares available for distribution in respect of Awards made under the Plan shall be subject to the following limitations:

          (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 3.02 hereof, effective as of May 19, 2005 (the date on which this Plan became effective) the aggregate number of Shares that were authorized to be issued in respect of Awards made under the Plan was limited to two million two hundred fifty thousand (2,250,000) Shares. Effective as of the date this amendment and restatement is approved by the Company’s stockholders, in addition to the number of Shares available for issuance pursuant to the terms of the Plan as of December 31, 2008, an additional seven hundred fifty thousand (750,000) Shares may be issued in respect of Awards made under the Plan and shall be reserved for issuance pursuant to the terms of the Plan.

          (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 3.01(a) and Section 3.01(c), upon the grant of any Award, the overall aggregate number of Shares available for further Awards under the Plan, and if the Award so granted was in a form subject to a limitation on the aggregate number of Shares available for Awards in that form, the aggregate number of Shares available for further Awards under the Plan in that form, shall be reduced by the number of Shares subject to the Award so granted.

          (c) There shall be added back to the aggregate number of Shares available for the grant of Awards under the Plan, as determined under (a) and (b) above, the following: (i) any Shares as to which an Option granted hereunder has not been exercised at the time of its expiration, cancellation or forfeiture; (ii) any Shares included in any other form of Award

granted to an Eligible Person hereunder, to the extent that the person’s right to receive such Shares, or any cash payment in settlement of such Award, is forfeited; (iii) any Shares represented by Restricted Units granted hereunder as to which payment is to be made in cash instead of by the issuance and delivery of Shares; (iv) any Shares represented by Performance Units granted hereunder as to which payment is to be made in cash instead of by the issuance of Shares; and (v) any Shares subject to an Option granted hereunder, or covered by any other form of Award made hereunder, to the extent such Option or other Award is surrendered in exchange for any other Award made hereunder.

     3.02 Certain Adjustments to Shares . In the event of any change in the number of outstanding Shares of Common Stock without receipt of consideration by the Company resulting from any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, combination or exchange of Shares, or any rights offering to purchase Shares of Common Stock at a price substantially below fair market value, or any similar change affecting the Shares of Common Stock: (a) the maximum aggregate number and kind of Shares specified herein as available for the grant of Awards, or for the grant of any particular form of Award, under the Plan; (b) the number and kind of Shares that may be issued and delivered to Participants upon the exercise of any Option, or in payment with respect to any Award of Restricted Shares or Performance Shares, that is outstanding at the time of such change; (c) the number and kind of Shares represented by any Restricted Units, Performance Units, Rights or Dividend Equivalent Units that are outstanding at the time of such change; (d) the number of Shares represented by any Award of Rights; (e) the exercise price per share of any Options granted hereunder that are outstanding at the time of such change; and (f) the Base Price established with respect to any Rights granted hereunder that are outstanding at the date of such change, shall be appropriately adjusted consistent with such change in such manner as the Compensation Administration Committee, in its sole discretion, may deem equitable to prevent substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to, or available for, the Participants hereunder.

     In the case of any outstanding Incentive Stock Option, any such change shall be made in the manner that satisfies the requirements that must be met under Section 424 of the Code in order for such change not to be treated as a “modification” of such Option as defined under Section 424 of the Code.

     The Committee shall give notice to each Participant of any adjustment made pursuant to this Section and, upon such notice, such adjustment shall be effective and binding for all purposes.

     3.03 Listing and Qualification of Shares . The Company, in its discretion, may postpone the issuance, delivery, or distribution of Shares with respect to any Award until completion of such stock exchange listing or other qualification of such Shares under any state or federal law, rule or regulation as the Company may consider appropriate, and may require any Participant to make such representations and furnish such information as it may consider appropriate in connection with the issuance or delivery of the Shares in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations.

Subject to the limitations set forth in Article 3 above and to the other terms and conditions of the Plan, Options may be granted under the Plan to Eligible Persons for the purchase of such number of Shares, at such times and, upon such terms and conditions, as the Committee in its discretion may determine.

     4.02 Type of Options . Each Option granted hereunder shall be identified in the instrument evidencing such grant as either: (a) an Option intended to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option; or (b) an Option that shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

     4.03 Term of Options . The period of time during which an Option may be exercised shall be such period of time as is determined by the Committee and specified in the instrument setting forth the terms of the Option Award; provided that, in no event may the period of time during which an Option may be exercised exceed ten (10) years from the Date of Grant of the Option. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan to the contrary, no Option may be exercised after its expiration.

     4.04 Exercise of Options . Each Option granted hereunder shall become exercisable, in whole or in part, at such time or times during its term as the instrument evidencing the grant of such Option shall specify. To the extent that an Option has become exercisable, it may be exercised thereafter, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time prior to its expiration, as to any or all Shares as to which the Option has become and remains exercisable, subject to the provisions of Section 4.05 below.

     4.05 Termination of Service . Except as the instrument evidencing the grant of an Option may otherwise provide, the portion of any outstanding Option held by an Eligible Person on the date of his or her Termination of Service that has not become exercisable prior to such date, and the portion of such Option which was exercisable but had not been exercised prior to the date of the Eligible Person’s Termination of Service, shall be forfeited on such date.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Committee so determines, in its discretion, the instrument evidencing the grant of an Option may provide that the portion of the Option that is exercisable at the time of the Eligible Person’s Termination of Service will continue to be exercisable, and that the portion of such Option that is not exercisable at such time will become exercisable in accordance with the terms of the Option and remain exercisable thereafter, during such period of time after the date on which the Eligible Person’s Termination of Service occurs (but not beyond the expiration of the term of the Option), in such circumstances and subject to such terms and conditions, as are specified in such instrument. However, to the extent that any Option granted hereunder to an Employee as an Incentive Stock Option is exercised more than three months after the date of such Employee’s Termination of Service for any reason other than Disability, or more than one year after such date if the Employee’s Termination of Service occurred because of Disability, the Option shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option for purposes of the Plan.

     4.06 Exercise Price and Method of Exercise . The price at which Shares may be purchased upon any exercise of an Option shall be the price per share determined by the

Committee and specified in the instrument evidencing the grant of such Option; provided that, in no event shall the exercise price per Share be less than: (a) the Fair Market Value of a Share determined as of the Date of Grant of the Option; or (b) if greater, the par value of a Share.

     An Option shall be exercised by delivery of a written notice of exercise, in a form satisfactory to the Committee, to the Company at its principal business office and addressed to the attention of the Company’s Secretary or such other person as the Company’s Secretary may have designated to receive such notice. The notice shall specify the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised. The notice shall be accompanied by payment of the exercise price of the Shares for which the Option is being exercised, which payment shall be made under one or more of the methods of payment provided in Section 4.07 below.

     4.07 Payment . Payment of the exercise price for Shares purchased upon the exercise of an Option shall be made by one, or by a combination of any, of the following methods: (a) in cash, which may be paid by check or other instrument acceptable to the Company, or by wire transfer of funds, in each case in United States dollars; (b) if permitted by the Committee and subject to any terms and conditions it may impose on the use of such methods, by: (i) the delivery to the Company of other Shares owned by the Participant; provided that such shares have been owned by the Participant for the requisite period necessary to avoid a charge to the Company’s earnings; or (ii) the surrender to the Company of Shares that otherwise would have been delivered to the Participant upon exercise of the Option; and (c) to the extent permissible under applicable law, through any cashless exercise sale and remittance procedure that the Committee in its discretion may from time to time approve.

     For purposes of determining the portion of the exercise price payable upon the exercise of an Option that will be treated as satisfied by the delivery or surrender of Shares pursuant to clause (b) (i) or (ii) above, Shares so delivered or surrendered shall be valued at their Fair Market Value determined as of the business day next preceding the date on which the Option is exercised .

     4.08 Incentive Stock Options . Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following provisions:

          (a) No Incentive Stock Option may be granted under the Plan after February 9, 2015.

          (b) To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan and under all other stock option plans maintained by the Company are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year exceeds $100,000, the Incentive Stock Options so exercisable shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options. For purposes of the foregoing, the Fair Market Value of Shares as to which any Incentive Stock Option may be exercised shall be determined as of the Date of Grant of such Option. The determination of whether the limitation set forth in the first sentence of this Section 4.08(b) applies with respect to any Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan shall be made in accordance with applicable provisions of Section 422 of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder.

          (c) No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to an Employee if, as of the Date of Grant of such Option, such Employee owns stock possessing more than ten percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, unless: (i) the exercise price per Share under such Option is at least 110% percent of the Fair Market Value of a Share determined as of the Date of Grant of such Option; and (ii) such Option is not exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the Date of Grant of such Option. If an Option, designated as an Incentive Stock Option, is granted to an Employee who owns more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company and either the price per Share at which the Option is exercisable or the date on which the Option expires does not satisfy the limitations specified above, such Incentive Stock Option shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

          (d) The instrument evidencing the grant of any Incentive Stock Option shall require that if any Shares acquired upon the exercise of such Option are disposed of within 2 years from the Date of Grant of such Option, or within one year from the date as of which the Shares disposed of were transferred to the Participant pursuant to the exercise of such Option, the Participant shall give the Company written notice of such disposition, within ten days following the date of such disposition.

     4.09 Other Option Provisions . The instrument evidencing the grant of any Option hereunder may contain such other terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan or any applicable law, as the Committee may determine.

     4.10 Rights of a Shareholder . Upon the exercise by a Participant of an Option or any portion thereof in accordance with the Plan, the provisions of the instrument evidencing the grant of such Option and any applicable rules and regulations established by the Committee and the issuance to the Participant of a certificate representing the Shares with respect to which the Option has been exercised, the Participant shall have all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to the Shares issued as a result of such exercise. Prior to the issuance to a Participant of a certificate representing Shares issuable to the Participant upon his or her exercise of an Option, the Participant shall not have any rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to such Shares.

ARTICLE 5.
RESTRICTED SHARES AND RESTRICTED UNITS

     5.01 Awards of Restricted Shares and Restricted Units . Subject to the limitations set forth in Article 3 and to the other terms and conditions of the Plan, Restricted Shares and Restricted Units may be granted to such Eligible Persons, at such times, and in such amounts, as the Committee may determine in its discretion. In addition to Awards of Restricted Shares or Restricted Units which may be made to any Eligible Person in recognition of services provided to the Company and its Affiliates or as an incentive for such Eligible Person to continue to contribute to the profitability and growth of the Company and its Affiliates, effective as of May 19, 2005, the Company adopted a framework under which a specific type of Restricted Unit Awards will be made, which framework, as amended from time to time prior to the effective date hereof, is known as the Gibraltar Industries, Inc. Management Stock Purchase Plan (the “MSPP”). The MSPP is intended to be treated as an integral part of this Plan and provides for the granting of Awards of Restricted Units to Eligible Persons in consideration for and

recognition of the agreement of such Eligible Persons to authorize the Company to credit Restricted Units to an account established for the benefit of such Eligible Persons under the MSSP in lieu of the payment to such Eligible Persons of a portion of the base salary and/or a portion of the annual incentive bonus (in the case of an Eligible Person that is an Employee) or all or part of the Director fees (in the case of an Eligible Person that is a member of the Company’s Board of Directors) which such Eligible Persons would otherwise be entitled to receive from the Company and its Affiliates.

     5.02 Restrictions and Restricted Period . At the time of each grant of Restricted Shares or Restricted Units to any Participant, the Committee shall establish a period of time within which the Restricted Shares or Restricted Units covered by such grant (and the Participant’s right to receive payment with respect to such Restricted Units) may not be sold, assigned, transferred (other than a transfer to the Participant’s Beneficiary occurring by reason of the Participant’s death), made subject to gift, or otherwise disposed of, or mortgaged, pledged or otherwise encumbered, whether voluntarily or by operation of law. The Committee in its discretion may prescribe a separate Restricted Period for any specified portion of the Restricted Shares or Restricted Units granted pursuant to any Award.

     5.03 Rights While Restricted Shares Remain Subject to Restrictions . Restricted Shares granted to a Participant hereunder may be issued to the Participant as of the Date of Grant as uncertificated shares or as Shares represented by a stock certificate bearing a legend or legends making appropriate references to the Restrictions. Until the Restrictions which apply to Restricted Shares lapse in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.05 below or Section 9.01(c), the Restricted Shares granted to a Participant which are not certificated shall be held in the Participant’s name in a bookkeeping account maintained by the Company and Restricted Shares granted to a Participant and represented by a stock certificate shall continue to bear the legend or legends making reference to the Restrictions. A separate account shall be maintained for all Restricted Shares granted to a Participant with a Restricted Period ending on the same date.

     Except for the Restrictions which apply to Restricted Shares, and subject to the forfeiture provisions applicable under Section 5.06 below, a Participant shall have, with respect to all Restricted Shares so held for his account, all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including full voting rights with respect to such Shares and the right to receive currently with respect to the Participant’s Restricted Shares all dividends and other distributions payable generally on the Company’s Shares. If any dividends or distributions so payable are paid in Shares, the Shares paid as a dividend or distribution with respect to a Participant’s Restricted Shares shall be subject to the same Restrictions and provisions relating to forfeiture as apply to the Restricted Shares with respect to which they were paid. Such stock dividend Shares shall themselves be treated as Restricted Shares, and shall be credited to the same account which the Company maintains for those Restricted Shares of the Participant with respect to which such stock dividends or distributions were paid.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the instrument evidencing the grant of any Restricted Shares to a Participant so provides, all cash dividends and distributions payable generally on the Company’s Shares that are otherwise payable with respect to the Restricted Shares granted to the Participant shall not be paid currently to the Participant but instead, shall be applied to the purchase of additional Shares for the Participant’s account. The additional Shares so purchased

shall be subject to the same Restrictions and provisions relating to forfeiture as apply to the Restricted Shares with respect to which they were paid. Such additional Shares shall themselves be treated as Restricted Shares, and shall be credited to the same account which the Company maintains for those Restricted Shares of the Participant with respect to which such dividends or distributions were paid. The purchase of any such additional Shares shall be made in accordance with such other procedure as may be specified in the instrument evidencing the grant of the Restricted Shares on which such dividends are paid.

     5.04 Rights While Restricted Units Remain Subject to Restrictions . No Shares shall be issued at the time an award of Restricted Units is made. Except as provided in the following paragraph or otherwise provided by the instrument evidencing an Award of Restricted Units, a Participant that is the holder of an Award of Restricted Units shall not have any rights as a shareholder with respect to such Restricted Units. Restricted Units granted to a Participant hereunder shall be credited to a bookkeeping account maintained by the Company for the Participant. A separate account shall be maintained for all Restricted Units granted to a Participant with a Restricted Period ending on the same date and for all Dividend Equivalent Units that are to be credited to such account in accordance with the next following paragraph.

     If any dividends or other distributions payable on the Company’s Shares are paid in Shares during any period that a Participant holds an Award of Restricted Units, as of the applicable Dividend Payment Date, a number of additional Restricted Units shall be credited to each account established for the Participant to reflect the number of Restricted Units held by the Participant as of such Dividend Payment Date. The number of additional Restricted Units to be credited shall be determined by first multiplying: (a) the total number of Restricted Units standing to the Participant’s credit in such account on the day immediately preceding such Dividend Payment Date (including all Dividend Equivalent Units credited to such account on all previous Dividend Payment Dates); by (b) the per share dollar amount of the dividend paid on such Dividend Payment Date; and then , (c) dividing the resulting amount by the Fair Market Value of one Share on such Dividend Payment Date. Dividend Equivalent Units awarded pursuant to this paragraph to a Participant that holds an Award of Restricted Units shall have the same Restricted Period as the Restricted Units with respect to which such Dividend Equivalent Units have been awarded.

     5.05 Lapse of Restrictions and Payment . Upon the expiration of the Restricted Period for any Restricted Shares or Restricted Units granted to a Participant hereunder but subject to the provisions of Section 5.06 below, the Restrictions applicable to such Restricted Shares or Restricted Units shall lapse, and payment with respect to such Restricted Shares or Restricted Units (including any related Dividend Equivalent Units) shall be made in accordance with the following provisions:

          (a) In the case of Restricted Shares, payment shall be made by delivery to the Participant of a stock certificate for the number of such Restricted Shares, free and clear of all Restrictions to which such shares were subject. However, if the Restricted Shares with respect to which the applicable Restrictions have lapsed includes a fractional Share, payment for such fractional Share shall be made in cash, in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of such fractional Share determined as of the date on which such Restrictions lapsed. Delivery of such stock certificate and any such cash payment shall be made to the Participant as soon as practicable following the lapse of the applicable Restrictions.

          (b) In the case of Restricted Units (incl
