RESTRICTED SHARE AWARD AGREEMENT UNDER THE DREAMWORKS ANIMATION SKG, INC., AMENDED AND RESTATED 2008 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN, dated as of October 29, 2010 between DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Lewis Coleman.

This Restricted Share Award Agreement (the “Award Agreement”) sets forth the terms and conditions of an award of 18,413 shares (this “Award”) of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, $0.01 par value (“Share”), that are subject to certain restrictions on transfer and risks of forfeiture and other terms and conditions specified herein (“Restricted Shares”) and that are granted to you under the DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc. Amended and Restated 2008 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”).

THIS AWARD IS SUBJECT TO ALL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE PLAN AND THIS AWARD AGREEMENT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN SECTION 10. BY SIGNING YOUR NAME BELOW, YOU WILL HAVE CONFIRMED YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AWARD AGREEMENT.

SECTION 1. The Plan. This Award is made pursuant to the Plan, all the terms of which are hereby incorporated in this Award Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Plan and the terms of this Award Agreement, the terms of this Award Agreement shall govern. Except as explicitly set forth in this Award Agreement, in the event of any conflict between the terms of this Award Agreement and the terms of any individual employment agreement between you and the Company or any of its Affiliates (an “Employment Agreement”), the terms of your Employment Agreement will govern.

SECTION 2. Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this Award Agreement that are not defined in this Award Agreement have the meanings as used or defined in the Plan. As used in this Award Agreement, the following terms have the meanings set forth below:

“Business Day” means a day that is not a Saturday, a Sunday or a day on which banking institutions are legally permitted to be closed in the City of New York.

“Section 409A” means Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations and other interpretive guidance promulgated thereunder, as in effect from time to time.

“Vesting Date” means the date on which your rights with respect to all or a portion of the Restricted Shares subject to this Award Agreement may become fully vested, and the restrictions set forth in this Award Agreement may lapse, as provided in Sections 3(a) or 3(b) of this Award Agreement.

SECTION 3. Vesting and Delivery. (a) Regularly Scheduled Vesting. (i) On each Vesting Date set forth below, your rights with respect to the number of Restricted Shares that corresponds to such Vesting Date, as specified in the chart below, shall become vested, and the restrictions set forth in this Award Agreement shall lapse, provided that you must be actively employed by the Company or an Affiliate on the relevant Vesting Date, except (A) as otherwise determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, (B) as set forth in Section 3 of this Award Agreement or (C) as otherwise provided in your Employment Agreement.

(ii) In the event that, prior to the final Vesting Date, you commence an unpaid leave of absence in accordance with the Company’s policies as in effect from time to time, your Restricted Shares will remain outstanding pursuant to the terms of this Section 3(a)(ii). Solely for purposes of this Award Agreement, your employment with the Company and its Affiliates will be deemed to continue until the earlier of (A) the six-month anniversary of the date that your unpaid leave of absence began and (B) March 15 of the year following the year in which your unpaid leave of absence began (the earlier of such dates, the “Final Return Date”). Therefore, any Restricted Shares that are outstanding on the date your unpaid leave of absence began will remain outstanding until the Final Return Date and, if a Vesting Date occurs during that period, will be settled on the relevant Vesting Date. If you return to active employment prior to the Final Return Date, your unvested Restricted Shares will remain outstanding following that date in accordance with their terms. In the event that you do not return to active employment with the Company or its Affiliates prior to the Final Return Date, then except as set forth in your Employment Agreement or as otherwise determined by the Committee in its discretion, your rights with respect to all outstanding Restricted Shares will immediately terminate upon the Final Return Date, and you will be entitled to no further payments or benefits with respect thereto.

(iii) In the event that your employment with the Company is subject to an Employment Agreement, and prior to the earlier of (x) the expiration or termination of such Employment Agreement and (y) the final Vesting Date, the Company determines that you shall no longer be required to perform services for the Company or its Affiliates as specified in your Employment Agreement even though your Employment Agreement

will remain in effect until its scheduled expiration date, then provided that you continue to comply with the terms of your Employment Agreement, solely for purposes of Sections 3 and 4 of this Award Agreement, you will be deemed to remain employed until the earlier of (A) the scheduled expiration date of your Employment Agreement and (B) March 15 of the year following the year in which you ceased to perform services for the Company and its Affiliates. Upon the earlier of the events described in clauses (A) and (B) of the immediately preceding sentence, your employment with the Company and its Affiliates will be deemed to terminate, and your rights with respect to any Restricted Shares the Vesting Date of which has not yet occurred will terminate, and you will be entitled to no further payments or benefits with respect thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise set forth in your Employment Agreement, in no event will the scheduled expiration of your Employment Agreement be deemed to be a termination of your employment without cause or for good reason for purposes of Section 3(b) of this Award Agreement.

(iv) In the event that your employment with the Company is terminated prior to the final Vesting Date under any of the circumstances described in your Employment Agreement (such as Incapacity, Death, Involuntary Termination or Termination for Good Reason) or in the event that your Employment Agreement expires prior to the final Vesting Date, your entitlement to vest in the Restricted Shares pursuant to this Award shall be governed by the relevant section of your Employment Agreement (which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes the provisions of Paragraph 4.b(vi) of your Employment Agreement).

(b) Vesting following a Change of Control. Except as explicitly set forth in this Section 3(b) or Section 3(d) of this Award Agreement, and unless otherwise provided pursuant to the provisions of your Employment Agreement, in the event of a change of control (as defined in your Employment Agreement) prior to the final Vesting Date, all unvested Restricted Shares shall remain unvested and shall continue to vest in accordance with their terms, without regard to the occurrence of such change of control. Subject to the procedures set forth in your Employment Agreement, if, during the one-year period following a change of control, your employment is terminated by the Company without cause (as defined in your Employment Agreement) or you terminate your employment for good reason (as defined in your Employment Agreement), then, except as set forth in your Employment Agreement, your rights with respect to any then-unvested Restricted Shares shall become immediately vested. In such event, the date of such termination of your employment shall be considered a Vesting Date hereunder.

(c) Delivery of Shares. On or following the date of this Award Agreement, certificates issued in respect of Restricted Shares shall be registered in your name and deposited by you, together with a stock power endorsed in blank, with the Company or such other custodian as may be designated by the Committee or the Company, and shall be held by the Company or other custodian, as applicable, until such time, if any, as your rights with respect to such Restricted Shares become vested. Upon the vesting of your rights with respect to such Restricted Shares, the Company or other custodian, as applicable, shall deliver such certificates to you or your legal representative.

(d) Change of Control under your Employment Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of a change of control prior to the final Vesting Date, unless provision is made in connection with such change of control for (i) assumption of outstanding Restricted Shares or (ii) substitution for the Restricted Shares of new restricted shares of a successor corporation or its “parent corporation” (as defined in Section 424(e) of the Code) or “subsidiary corporation” (as defined in Section 424(f) of the Code) with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kinds of shares that preserve the material terms and conditions of such outstanding Restricted Shares as in effect immediately prior to the change of control (including, without limitation, with respect to the vesting schedules, the intrinsic value of the Restricted Shares as of the change of control and transferability of the Restricted Shares), all outstanding Restricted Shares that you hold shall automatically vest as of immediately prior to such change of control.

SECTION 4. Forfeiture of Restricted Shares. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, and except as otherwise provided in your Employment Agreement or in Section 3 of this Award Agreement, if your rights with respect to any Restricted Shares awarded to you pursuant to this Award Agreement have not become vested prior to the date on which your employment with the Company and its Affiliates terminates, your rights with respect to such Restricted Shares shall immediately terminate, and you will be entitled to no further payments or benefits with respect thereto.

SECTION 5. Voting Rights; Dividend Equivalents. Prior to the date on which your rights with respect to a Restricted Share have become vested, you shall not be entitled to exercise any voting rights with respect to such Restricted Share and shall not be entitled to receive dividends or other distributions with respect thereto.

SECTION 6. Non-Transferability of Restricted Shares. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in its discretion, Restricted Shares may not be sold, assigned, alienated, transferred, pledged, attached or otherwise encumbered except as provided in Section 9(a) of the Plan. Any purported sale, assignment, alienation, transfer, pledge, attachment or other encumbrance of Restricted Shares in violation of the provisions of this Section 6 and Section 9(a) of the Plan shall be void.

SECTION 7. Withholding, Consents and Legends. (a) Withholding. The delivery of Share certificates pursuant to Section 3(c) of this Award Agreement is conditioned on satisfaction of any applicable withholding taxes in accordance with this Section 7(a) and Section 9(d) of the Plan. No later than the date as of which an amount first becomes includible in your gross income for Federal, state, local or foreign income tax purposes with respect to any Restricted Shares, you shall pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company regarding the payment of, any Federal, state, local and foreign taxes that are required by applicable laws and regulations to be withheld with respect to such amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in its sole discretion and subject to such other terms and conditions as the Company may determine, permit you to satisfy, in whole or in part, any withholding tax liability by having the Company withhold from the number of Restricted Shares in which you would be entitled to vest, a number of Shares having a Fair Market Value (which shall either have the meaning set forth in the Plan or shall have such other meaning as determined by

the Company in accordance with applicable withholding requirements) equal to such withholding tax liability. Prior to the vesting of the Restricted Shares, the Company will notify you whether you will be permitted to surrender any portion of the Restricted Shares to the Company in order to satisfy any portion of your withholding tax liability.

(b) Consents. Your rights in respect of the Restricted Shares are conditioned on the receipt to the full satisfaction of the Committee of any required consents that the Committee may determine to be necessary or advisable (including, without limitation, your consenting to the Company’s supplying to any third-party recordkeeper of the Plan such personal information as the Committee deems advisable to administer the Plan).

(c) Legends. The Company may affix to certificates for Shares issued pursuant to this Award Agreement any legend that the Committee determines to be necessary or advisable (including to reflect any restrictions to which you may be subject under any applicable securities laws). The Company may advise the transfer agent to place a stop order against any legended Shares.

SECTION 8. Successors and Assigns of the Company. The terms and conditions of this Award Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Company and its successors and assigns.

SECTION 9. Committee Discretion. Subject to the terms of this Award Agreement and your Employment Agreement, the Committee shall have full and plenary discretion with respect to any actions to be taken or determinations to be made in connection with this Award Agreement, and its determinations shall be final, binding and conclusive.

SECTION 10. Dispute Resolution. (a) Jurisdiction and Venue. Notwithstanding any provision in your Employment Agreement, you and the Company irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of (i) the United States District Court for the District of Delaware and (ii) the courts of the State of Delaware for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Award Agreement or the Plan. You and the Company agree to commence any such action, suit or proceeding either in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware or, if such suit, action or other proceeding may not be brought in such court for jurisdictional reasons, in the courts of the State of Delaware. You and the Company further agree that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to the other party’s address set forth below shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in Delaware with respect to any matters to which you have submitted to jurisdiction in this Section 10(a). You and the Company irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Award Agreement or the Plan in (A) the United States District Court for the District of Delaware or (B) the courts of the State of Delaware, and hereby and thereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(b) Waiver of Jury Trial. You and the Company hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right either of you may have to a trial by jury in respect to any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Award Agreement or the Plan.

(c) Confidentiality. You hereby agree to keep confidential the existence of, and any information concerning, a dispute described in this Section 10, except that you may disclose information concerning such dispute to the court that is considering such dispute or to your legal counsel (provided that such counsel agrees not to disclose any such information other than as necessary to the prosecution or defense of the dispute).

SECTION 11. Notice. All notices, requests, demands and other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Award Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered by hand or overnight courier or three Business Days after they have been mailed by U.S. registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the other party as set forth below:

The parties may change the address to which notices under this Award Agreement shall be sent by providing written notice to the other in the manner specified above.

SECTION 12. Headings. Headings are given to the Sections and subsections of this Award Agreement solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. Such headings shall not be deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction or interpretation of this Award Agreement or any provision thereof.

SECTION 13. Amendment of this Award Agreement. The Committee may waive any conditions or rights under, amend any terms of, or alter, suspend, discontinue, cancel or terminate this Award Agreement prospectively or retroactively; provided, however, that, except as set forth in Section 14(d) of this Award Agreement, any such waiver, amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance, cancelation or termination that would materially and adversely impair your rights under this Award Agreement shall not to that extent be effective without your consent (it being understood, notwithstanding the foregoing proviso, that this Award Agreement and the Restricted Shares shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7(c) of the Plan).

SECTION 14. Section 409A. (a) It is intended that the provisions of this Award Agreement comply with Section 409A, and all provisions of this Award Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Section 409A.

(b) Neither you nor any of your creditors or beneficiaries shall have the right to subject any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable under this Award Agreement to any anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment or garnishment. Except as permitted under Section 409A, any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable to you or for your benefit under this Award Agreement may not be reduced by, or offset against, any amount owing by you to the Company or any of its Affiliates.

(c) If, at the time of your separation from service (within the meaning of Section 409A), (i) you shall be a specified employee (within the meaning of Section 409A and using the identification methodology selected by the Company from time to time) and (ii) the Company shall make a good faith determination that an amount payable hereunder constitutes deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) the payment of which is required to be delayed pursuant to the six-month delay rule set forth in Section 409A in order to avoid taxes or penalties under Section 409A, then the Company shall not pay such amount on the otherwise scheduled payment date but shall instead pay it, without interest (except as otherwise provided in your Employment Agreement), on the first business day after such six-month period.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision of this Award Agreement to the contrary, in light of the uncertainty with respect to the proper application of Section 409A, the Company reserves the right to make amendments to this Award Agreement as the Company deems necessary or desirable to avoid the imposition of taxes or penalties under Section 409A. In any case, you shall be solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on you or for your account in connection with this Award Agreement (including any taxes and penalties under Section 409A), and neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold you harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties.

SECTION 15. Counterparts. This Award Agreement may be signed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have duly executed this Award Agreement as of the date first written above.
