RESTRICTED STOCK GRANT AGREEMENT

      THIS AGREEMENT, by and between TWIN DISC, INCORPORATED (the “Company”) and ______________________ (the “Employee”) is dated this 24 th day of July 2008.

      WHEREAS, the Company adopted a Long Term Incentive Compensation Plan in 2004, as amended in 2006 (the “Plan”), whereby the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”) is authorized to award shares of common stock of the Company to officers and key employees carrying restrictions such as a prohibition against disposition and establishing a substantial risk of forfeiture; and WHEREAS, the Committee has determined it to be in its best interests of the Company to provide the Employee with an inducement to acquire or increase his equity interest in the Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the covenants and agreements herein set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:

      1. Stock Grant . Subject to the terms of the Plan, a copy of which has been provided to the Employee and is incorporated herein by reference, the Company grants to the Employee _________
shares of the common stock of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions and restrictions set forth below.

      If at any time while this Agreement is in effect (or shares of common stock granted hereunder shall be or remain unvested while Employee’s employment continues and has not yet terminated or ceased for any reason), there shall be any increase or decrease in the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company through the declaration of a stock dividend or through any recapitalization resulting in a stock split-up, combination or exchange of such


shares, then the Committee shall make any adjustments it deems fair and appropriate (in view of such change) in the number of shares of common stock then subject to this Agreement. If any such adjustment shall result in a fractional share, such fraction shall be disregarded.

      2. Price Paid by Employee . The price to be paid by the Employee for the shares granted shall be No Dollars ($ 0.00 ) per share.

      3. Transferability . For a period of three (3) years from the date of grant the shares granted shall not be subject to sale, assignment, pledge or other transfer of disposition by the Employee, except as provided in Sections 5 or 6, or except by reason of an exchange or conversion of such shares because of merger, consolidation, reorganization or other corporate action. Any shares into which the granted shares may be converted or for which the granted shares may be exchanged in a merger, consolidation, reorganization or other corporate action shall be subject to the same transferability restrictions as the granted shares.

On the third anniversary of the date of grant, one hundred percent (100%) of the shares

granted shall become freely transferable.

      4. Forfeitability . Except as provided in Section 5 of this Agreement, if the employment of the Employee shall terminate prior to the expiration of three (3) years from the date of grant other than by reason of death or permanent disability, the shares granted (or any shares into which they may have been converted or for which they may have been exchanged) shall be forfeited. If the Employee continues to be employed on the third anniversary of the date of grant, the shares shall become non-forfeitable.

      5. Termination Following Change in Control . Notwithstanding Sections 3 and 4 of this Agreement, if an event constituting a Change in Control of the Company occurs and the Employee thereafter either terminates employment for Good Reason or is involuntarily terminated by the Company without cause, the transferability provisions and the forfeitability provisions shall immediately cease to apply. Employee’s continued employment with the Company, for whatever duration, following a Change in Control of the Company shall not constitute a waiver of his or her rights with respect to this Section 5. Employee's right to terminate his or her employment pursuant to this Subsection shall not be affected by his or her incapacity due to physical or mental illness. For purposes of this Section 5:
