DIRECTOR RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

(Time Vesting)

THIS RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made effective as of                      (the “Award Date”) by and between Hornbeck Offshore Services, Inc. (the “Company”) and                      (“Director”).

1. GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS. Pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Hornbeck Offshore Services, Inc. Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) Director is hereby awarded Restricted Stock Units covering                      shares of the Common Stock of the Company. On any day, the value of a Restricted Stock Unit shall equal the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock of the Company. All of the Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions as set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement.

2. EFFECT OF THE PLAN. The Restricted Stock Units awarded to Director are subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Plan, which terms and conditions are incorporated herein for all purposes, and of this Agreement together with all rules and determinations from time to time issued by the Committee and by the Board pursuant to the Plan. The Company hereby reserves the right to amend, modify, restate, supplement or terminate the Plan without the consent of Director, so long as such amendment, modification, restatement or supplement shall not materially reduce the rights and benefits available to Director hereunder, and this Award shall be subject, without further action by the Company or Director, to such amendment, modification, restatement or supplement unless provided otherwise therein. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Plan.

3. DEFINITIONS.

(a) “Disability” means permanent and total disability within the meaning of section 22(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

(b) “Forfeiture Restrictions” means the prohibition on transfer of the Restricted Stock Units and the obligations to forfeit the Restricted Stock Units to the Company as set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement.

(c) “Restricted Stock Unit” means an Award representing an unfunded, unsecured right to receive one share of the Common Stock of the Company.

(d) “Retirement” means Director’s separation from service as a Director with all the Company or any of its Subsidiaries on or after five (5) years of service.

4. RESTRICTIONS AND VESTING. Director hereby accepts the Award of the Restricted Stock Units and agrees with respect thereto as follows:

(a) Transferability. The Restricted Stock Units may be transferred in a manner consistent with Section 15.13 of the Plan. Except as provided in Section 15.13 of the Plan and elsewhere in this Agreement and the Plan, the Restricted Stock Units shall not be sold, assigned, pledged, exchanged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any attempted assignment of a Restricted Stock Unit in violation of this Agreement shall be null and void. The Company shall not be required to honor the transfer of any Restricted Stock Units that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Plan.

(b) Mandatory Mediation and Arbitration Procedure. By execution of this Agreement and acceptance of this Award, which is a voluntary benefit provided to Director by the Company, Director waives Director’s right to a jury trial in state or federal court and agrees that (i) Section 15.17 of the Plan shall be the sole and exclusive means of resolving disputes of the parties (including any other persons claiming any rights or having any obligations through the Company or Director) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and (ii) the dispute resolution procedures of Section 15.17 shall be the sole and exclusive means for resolving any other covered dispute between Director and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (including any other person(s) claiming any rights or having any obligations through the Company or Director). By execution of this Agreement, however, Director does not waive Director’s right to any normally available remedies Director may have in connection with any claim Director may bring against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as an arbitrator can award any normal remedies Director could get in a court proceeding. By execution of this Agreement Director represents that to the extent Director considered necessary, Director has sought, at Director’s own expense, counsel regarding the terms of this Agreement and the waiver contemplated in this Section 4(b).

(c) Forfeiture of Restricted Stock Units. If Director terminates service with the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the              anniversary of the Award Date for any reason other than the Director’s death, Disability, or Retirement, as herein defined, or if Director (or Director’s estate) shall initiate a legal proceeding against the Company other than as provided in paragraph (b) of thus Section 4, then Director (or Director’s estate, as applicable) shall, for no consideration, forfeit all Restricted Stock Units; provided, however, that the Committee or its designee may, in the Committee’s or the designee’s sole and absolute discretion, as applicable, provide for the acceleration of the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, eliminate or make less restrictive any restrictions contained in this Agreement, waive any restriction or other provision of the Plan or this Agreement or otherwise amend or modify this Agreement in any manner that is either (i) not adverse to Director, or (ii) consented to by Director.

(d) Vesting of Restricted Stock Units. If Director provides continuous, eligible service to the Company and its Subsidiaries, as determined by the Committee or its designee, in the Committee’s or the designee’s sole and absolute discretion, as applicable, until the              anniversary of the Award Date, Director shall vest in one hundred percent (100%) of the Restricted Stock Units.

(e) Retirement, Death or Disability. If, as a result of Director’s death, Retirement, or Disability, Director terminates service with the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the              anniversary of the Award Date, Director shall vest in and have a non-forfeitable right to one hundred percent (100%) of the Restricted Stock Units.

(f) Change of Control. If a Change of Control occurs prior to the              anniversary of the Award Date, Director shall vest in and have a non-forfeitable right to one hundred percent (100%) of the Restricted Stock Units.

(g) Rights. Restricted Stock Units represent an unfunded, unsecured promise of the Company to issue shares of Common Stock of the Company as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Other than the rights provided in this Agreement, Director shall have no rights of a stockholder of the Company until such Restricted Stock Units have vested and the related shares of Common Stock have been issued pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(h) Issuance of Common Stock. The Company will issue to Director the shares of Common Stock underlying the vested Restricted Stock Units, no later than the later of (i) 2 ¹/2 months after the Restricted Stock Units vest pursuant to Section 4 above, or (ii) as soon as is administratively practicable thereafter; provided, however, that in the event Director has timely deferred receipt of such shares in accordance with the terms of the Hornbeck Offshore Services, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan, then issuance of the shares shall be at the time and pursuant to the method of delivery so elected. Evidence of the issuance of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement may be accomplished in such manner as the Company or its authorized representatives shall deem appropriate including, without limitation, electronic registration, book-entry registration or issuance of a certificate or certificates in the name of Director or in the name of such other party or parties as the Company and its authorized representatives shall deem appropriate.

In the event the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Agreement remain subject to any additional restrictions, the Company and its authorized representatives shall ensure that Director is prohibited from entering into any transaction, which would violate any such restrictions, until such restrictions lapse.

(i) Associated Preferred Stock Purchase Rights. The issuance of any shares of Common Stock as the result of Director’s vesting in Restricted Stock Units pursuant to this Agreement will include any associated preferred stock purchase rights.

5. COMMUNITY INTEREST OF SPOUSE. The community interest, if any, of any spouse of Director in any of the Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to all of the terms, conditions and restrictions of this Agreement and the Plan, and shall be forfeited and surrendered to the Company upon the occurrence of any of the events requiring Director’s interest in such Restricted Stock Units to be so forfeited and surrendered pursuant to this Agreement.

6. BINDING EFFECT. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors to the Company and all persons lawfully claiming under Director.

7. TAX MATTERS.

(a) The vesting of any Restricted Stock Units and the related issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to paragraph (h) of Section 4 of this Agreement shall be subject to the satisfaction of all applicable federal, state and local income and employment tax withholding requirements (the “Required Withholding”). By execution of this Agreement, Director shall be deemed to have authorized the Company to withhold from the shares of Common Stock issued as a result of Director’s vesting in the Restricted Stock Units, the shares of Common Stock necessary to satisfy Director’s Required Withholding, if any. The amount of the Required Withholding and the number of shares of Common Stock required to satisfy Director’s Required Withholding, if any, as well as the amount reflected on tax reports filed by the Company, shall be based on the closing price of the Common Stock on the day the Restricted Stock Units vest pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may require that Director satisfy Director’s Required Withholding, if any, by any other means the Company, in its sole discretion, considers reasonable. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be conditioned on such satisfaction of the Required Withholding.

(b) Director acknowledges that the tax consequences associated with the Award are complex and that the Company has urged Director to review with Director’s own tax advisors the federal, state, and local tax consequences of this Award. Director is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. Director understands that Director (and not the Company) shall be responsible for Director’s own tax liability that may arise as a result of this Agreement.
