This Restricted Stock Unit Agreement ("Agreement") entered into as of December 23, 2020 (the "Grant Date"), by and between Fluor Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and you ("Grantee" or “you”) evidences the grant to Grantee of a Stock Unit Award (“RSU Award”)
pursuant to Rule 303A.08 of the New York Stock Exchange Listed Company Manual. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein have the meaning set forth in the Plan (as defined below).
Section 1.EMPLOYMENT INDUCEMENT AWARD
This RSU Award is an employment inducement award made in accordance with Rule 303A.08 of the New York Stock Exchange Listed Company Manual and is not granted under any stock incentive plan adopted by the Company. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, this RSU Award shall be construed as if the RSU Award had been granted under the Fluor Corporation 2020 Performance Incentive Plan (the "Plan") in accordance with and consistent with, and shall be treated as subject to, all of the terms and conditions
of the Plan, including any terms, rules or determinations made by the Committee pursuant to its administrative authority under the Plan, and such further terms as are set forth in the Plan that are applicable to awards thereunder, including without limitation provisions on adjustment of awards, non-transferability, satisfaction of tax requirements and compliance with other laws.
Section 2.RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD
The Company hereby awards Grantee restricted stock units (“RSUs”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of Company common stock, par value $.01 per share (“Shares”), pursuant to this RSU Award, subject
to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Subject to the provisions of Section 3 and Section 4 hereof, upon the issuance to Grantee of Shares hereunder, Grantee shall also receive cash in an amount equivalent to any dividends or distributions paid or made by the Company from the date of this RSU Award to the date of the issuance of the Shares with respect to an equivalent number of Shares so issued.
Section 3.RESTRICTIONS ON SALE OR OTHER TRANSFER
Each RSU awarded to Grantee pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to forfeiture to the Company pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein and each RSU may not be sold or otherwise transferred except pursuant to the following
provisions:
(a)The RSUs shall be held in book entry form by the Company until (1) the restrictions set forth herein lapse in accordance with the provisions of Section 4, at which time the RSUs will be converted to Shares, or (2) the RSUs are forfeited pursuant to Section 4 hereof.
(b)No such RSUs may be sold, transferred or otherwise alienated or hypothecated so long as such RSUs are subject to the restrictions provided for in this Agreement.
(c)The Company may impose such other restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any re-sales by the Grantee
or other subsequent transfers by the Grantee of any Shares issued as a result of the vesting of the RSUs, including without limitation (i) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (ii) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by Grantee and other stockholders of the Company and (iii) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such re-sales or other transfers.
Section 4.LAPSE OF RESTRICTIONS
The RSUs subject to this RSU Award shall vest and restrictions thereon shall lapse at a rate of one fifth of such number per year commencing with December 23, 2021 and annually thereafter ending on December 23, 2025, provided that
Grantee’s employment has not terminated on or before such date unless one of the exceptions set forth below in this Section 4 is met. The Company will issue you the Shares subject to this RSU Award (as well as any cash payments related to dividends or distributions related to such Shares) as soon as reasonably possible after each date on which the applicable restrictions lapse or any other date upon which this RSU Award vests as set forth below in this Section 4.
If your employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries terminates for any reason other than death, Disability or a Qualifying Termination, each as defined below and determined by the Committee in
accordance with the Plan, then as of the date of such termination any RSUs which have yet to vest shall be forfeited by you in exchange for no additional consideration or payment. If prior to the RSUs becoming vested in full pursuant to the preceding paragraph, your employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries terminates by reason of your death, Disability or a Qualifying Termination, each as determined by the Committee in accordance with the Plan, then any portion of this RSU Award which has yet to become vested shall become immediately vested. Notwithstanding the foregoing and regardless of the reason for termination, under all circumstances other than your Qualifying Termination, any RSUs held less than one year from the Grant Date shall be forfeited in exchange for no additional
consideration or payment. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement confers any right of continuing employment with the Company or its subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if in the event of a Change of Control the successor to the Company does not assume this RSU Award, then any portion of this RSU Award which has
- 1 -
Exhibit 10.28
yet to become vested and which has not otherwise been forfeited pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4 shall become immediately vested. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, in the event your employment is terminated for Cause (as defined herein), you shall forfeit the unvested RSUs in exchange for no additional consideration or payment, unless otherwise prohibited by law.
For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” and “Change of Control” shall have the meanings given to them in Appendix B to this Agreement. The term “Qualifying Termination” means your involuntary termination of employment by the Company, without Cause, within two (2) years following a Change of Control of the Company. For this purpose, “Cause”
means your dishonesty, fraud, willful misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty, conflict of interest, commission of a felony, material failure or refusal to perform your job duties in accordance with Company policies, material violation of Company policy that causes harm to the Company or its subsidiaries or other wrongful conduct of a similar nature and degree.
Section 5.ТАХ WITHHOLDING
Regardless of any action the Company or the Grantee’s employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll
tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Grantee is and remains the Grantee’s responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations nor undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this grant of RSUs, including the grant and vesting of RSUs, subsequent delivery of Shares and/or cash related to such RSUs or the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired pursuant to such RSUs and receipt of any dividend equivalent payments (if any) and (ii) do not commit to structure the terms or any aspect of this grant of RSUs to reduce or eliminate the Grantee’s liability for Tax-Related Items. The Grantee shall pay the
Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of the Grantee’s participation in the Plan or receipt of RSUs or of Shares pursuant to RSUs that cannot be satisfied by the means described below. Further, if the Grantee is subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction, the Grantee acknowledges that the Company and/or Employer (or former Employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. The Company may refuse to deliver the Shares if the Grantee fails to comply with the Grantee’s obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.
Prior
to the taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Grantee shall pay, or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company or to the Employer (in their sole discretion) to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, the Grantee authorizes the Company or Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related Items legally payable by the Grantee by (1) withholding a number of Shares otherwise deliverable equal to the Retained Share Amount (as defined below); (2) withholding from the Grantee’s wages or other cash compensation paid by the Company and/or Employer; and/or (3) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon settlement of the RSUs, either through a voluntary sale or through a sale
arranged by the Company (on the Grantee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization), to the extent permitted by the Plan Administrator. The “Retained Share Amount” shall mean a number of Shares equal to the quotient of the minimum statutory tax withholding obligation of the Company triggered by the RSUs on the relevant date, divided by the fair market value of one Share on the relevant date or as otherwise provided in the Plan. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding a number of Shares as described herein, the Grantee understands that he or she shall be deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the settled RSUs, notwithstanding that a number of Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related
Items due as a result of the settlement of the RSUs.
Grantee acknowledges and understands that Grantee should consult a tax advisor regarding Grantee’s tax obligations.
Section 6.SEVERABILITY
In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be invalidated for any reason by a court of competent jurisdiction, any provision so invalidated shall be deemed to be separable from the other provisions hereof, and the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be valid and fully enforceable.
Section 7.DATA PROTECTION
The Grantee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Grantee’s personal data as described in this document
by and among, as applicable, the Employer, and the Company and its subsidiaries for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Grantee’s participation in the Plan. The Grantee understands that the Company, its subsidiaries and the Employer hold certain personal information about the Grantee, including, but not limited to, name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the
Company, details of all options or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, purchased, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Grantee’s favor for the purpose of implementing, managing and administering the Plan (“Data”). The Grantee understands that the Data may be transferred to any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in the Grantee’s country or elsewhere, including outside the European economic area, and that the recipient country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Grantee’s country. The Grantee understands that he/she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the
- 2 -
Exhibit 10.28
Data
by contacting the local human resources representative. The Grantee authorizes the recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data, as may be required to a broker or other third party with whom the Grantee may elect to deposit any Shares acquired under the Plan. The Grantee understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage participation in the Plan. The Grantee understands that he/she may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of the Data, require any necessary amendments to the Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting the local human resources representative in writing. The Grantee understands that refusing or withdrawing consent
may affect the Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of refusing to consent or withdrawing consent, the Grantee understands that he/she may contact the Plan Administrator at the Company.
Section 8.ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND WAIVER
By accepting this grant of RSUs, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that:
(a)the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, and it is discretionary in nature and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time unless otherwise provided in
the Plan or this Agreement;
(b)the grant of RSUs is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Shares or RSUs, or benefits in lieu of Shares or RSUs, even if Shares or RSUs have been granted repeatedly in the past;
(c)all decisions with respect to future grants, if any, shall be at the sole discretion of the Company;
(d)this Agreement shall not create a right to further employment with Employer and shall not interfere with the ability of Employer to terminate the Grantee’s employment relationship, and it is expressly agreed and understood that employment is terminable at the will of either party, insofar as permitted by law;
(e)the
Grantee is receiving RSUs voluntarily;
(f)RSU awards and resulting benefits are extraordinary items that do not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company or the Employer, and are outside the scope of the Grantee’s employment contract, if any;
(g)RSU awards and resulting benefits are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, or end of service payments, or bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments insofar as permitted by law;
(h)in
the event that the Grantee is not an employee of the Company, this award of RSUs shall not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company, and furthermore, this award of RSUs shall not be interpreted to form an employment contract with the Employer or any subsidiary of the Company;
(i)the future value of the Shares is unknown, may increase or decrease from the date of award or vesting of the RSU and cannot be predicted with certainty;
(j)in consideration of this grant of RSUs, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from termination or diminution in value of this grant of RSUs resulting from termination of the Grantee’s employment by the Company or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever), and the Grantee irrevocably releases the Company and the Employer from any such claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, then, by accepting the terms of this Agreement, the Grantee shall be irrevocably deemed to have waived any entitlement to pursue such claim; and
(k)the award evidenced by this Agreement
is subject to all Company policies relating to the clawback and/or recoupment of compensation, as the same may be amended from time to time, and to the extent the Grantee is subject to such policies, the terms and conditions of such policies are hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement.
- 3 -
Exhibit 10.28
Section 9.CONFIDENTIALITY
This Agreement and the receipt of any RSUs hereunder are conditioned upon Grantee not disclosing this Agreement or said receipt to anyone other than Grantee's spouse, financial advisor, senior management of the
Company or members of the Company's Law, Tax, and Human Resources departments. If unauthorized disclosure is made to any other person, the RSUs received hereunder shall be forfeited in exchange for no additional payment or consideration. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other agreement, if Grantee makes a confidential disclosure of a Company trade secret to a government official or an attorney for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or in a court filing under seal, Grantee shall not be held liable under this Agreement or any other agreement, or under any federal or state trade secret law for such a disclosure. Moreover, nothing in this Agreement or any other agreement shall prevent Grantee from making a confidential disclosure of any other confidential information to a government official, to an attorney as necessary
to obtain legal advice or in a court filing under seal.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the day and year first herein above written.
This Appendix A, which is part of the Agreement, includes additional terms and conditions of the Agreement that will apply to you if you are a resident in one
of the countries listed below. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings assigned to them in the Plan and the Agreement.
NOTIFICATIONS
This Appendix A also includes information regarding exchange control and certain other issues of which you should be aware with respect to your participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of January 2020. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that you not rely on the information in this Appendix A as the only source of information relating to the consequences of your participation in the Plan because such information may be out-of-date when your RSUs vest and/or you sell any
Shares acquired under the Plan.
In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to your particular situation. As a result, the Company is not in a position to assure you of any particular result. You are therefore advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in your country may apply to your situation.
Finally, if you are a citizen or resident of a country other than that in which you are currently working, the information contained herein may not apply to you.

Insider-Trading Notification. Grantees should be aware of the Dutch insider-trading rules, which may impact the sale of Shares acquired upon vesting of the RSU. In particular, Grantees may be prohibited from effectuating certain transactions involving Shares if they have inside information about the Company. Grantees should consult their personal legal
advisor if they are uncertain whether the insider-trading rules apply to them. By accepting the Agreement and participating in the Plan, Grantee acknowledges having read and understood this notification and acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to comply with the Dutch insider-trading rules.
RUSSIA
Terms and Conditions
Securities Law Information. Grantee acknowledges that the Agreement, the grant of RSUs, the Plan and all other materials Grantee may receive regarding participation in the Plan do not constitute advertising or an offering of securities in Russia. The issuance of securities pursuant to the Plan has not and will not be registered in Russia and therefore, the securities described in any Plan-related documents may not be used for offering or public circulation in Russia.
Grantee
further acknowledges that in no event will Shares acquired upon vesting of the RSUs be delivered to Grantee in Russia; all Shares acquired upon vesting of the RSUs will be maintained on Grantee’s behalf in the United States.
Grantee acknowledges that Grantee is not permitted to sell Shares directly to a Russian legal entity or resident.

Exchange
Control Information. To participate in the Plan, Grantee understands that Grantee must comply with exchange control regulations and rulings (the “Exchange Control Regulations”) in South Africa.
For RSUs, because no transfer of funds from South Africa is required, no filing or reporting requirements should apply when the RSUs, if any, are granted or when shares are issued upon vesting and settlement of the RSUs.
Because the Exchange Control Regulations change frequently and without notice, Grantee understands that Grantee should consult a legal advisor prior to the purchase or sale of shares under the Plan to ensure compliance with current regulations. Grantee understands

10.28
that it is Grantee’s responsibility to comply with South African exchange control laws, and neither the Company nor Grantee’s Employer will be liable for any fines or penalties resulting from failure to comply with applicable laws.
SPAIN
Terms and Conditions
There are no country-specific provisions.
Notifications
No Special Employment or Similar Rights. Grantee understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously, and discretionally decided
to distribute awards under the Plan to individuals who may be employees of the Company or its subsidiaries throughout the world. The decision is a temporary decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its subsidiaries presently or in the future, other than as specifically set forth in the Plan and the terms and conditions of Grantee’s RSU grant. Consequently, Grantee understands that any grant is given on the assumption and condition that it shall not become a part of any employment contract
(either with the Company or any of its subsidiaries) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purpose (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. Further, Grantee understands and freely accepts that there is no guarantee that any benefit whatsoever shall arise from any gratuitous and discretionary grant since the future value of the awards and underlying shares is unknown and unpredictable. In addition, Grantee understands that this grant would not be made but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, Grantee acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any grant of awards shall be null and void and the Plan shall not have any
effect whatsoever.
Further, the RSU Award provides a conditional right to Shares and may be forfeited or affected by Grantee’s termination of employment, as set forth in the Agreement. For avoidance of doubt, Grantee’s rights, if any, to the RSUs upon termination of employment shall be determined as set forth in the Agreement, including, without limitation, where (i) Grantee is considered to be unfairly dismissed without good cause; (ii) Grantee is dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (iii) Grantee terminates service due to a change of work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; or (iv) Grantee terminates service due to the Company’s or any of its subsidiaries’
unilateral breach of contract.
Securities Law Notice. The RSUs granted under the Plan do not qualify as securities under Spanish regulations. By the grant of RSUs, no "offer of securities to the public", as defined under Spanish law, has taken place or will take place in Spanish territory. The present document and any other document relating to the offer of RSUs under the Plan has not been nor will it be registered with the Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores (Spanish Securities Exchange Commission), and it does not constitute a public offering prospectus.
Foreign Asset and Account Reporting. To the extent that Spanish residents hold rights or assets (e.g.,
shares of common stock, cash, etc.) in a bank or brokerage account outside of Spain with a value in excess of €50,000 per type of right or asset as of December 31 each year, such residents are required to report information on such rights and assets on their tax return for such year. Shares of common stock constitute securities for purposes of this requirement, but unvested rights (e.g., RSUs) are not considered assets or rights for purposes of this requirement.
If applicable, Spanish residents must report the assets or rights on Form 720 by no later than March 31 following the end of the relevant year. After such assets or rights are initially reported, the reporting obligation will only apply for subsequent years if the value of any previously-reported assets or rights increases by more than €20,000. Failure to comply with this reporting requirement may result in penalties.
Spanish
residents are also required to electronically declare to the Bank of Spain any securities accounts (including brokerage accounts held abroad), as well as the securities held in such accounts, if the value of the transactions for all such accounts during the prior tax year or the balances in such accounts as of December 31 of the prior tax year exceeds €1,000,000. More frequent reporting is required if such transaction value or account balance exceeds €1,000,000.
Spanish residents should consult with their personal tax and legal advisors to ensure compliance with their personal reporting obligations.
Exchange Control Information. All acquisitions of foreign shares by Spanish residents must comply with exchange control regulations in Spain. Because of foreign investments requirements, the acquisition of Company shares under the Plan must be declared for statistical
purposes to the Spanish Direccion General de Politica Comercial y de Inversiones Extranjeras (the “DGPCIE“). If you acquire the Shares
- 8 -
Exhibit 10.28
through the use of a Spanish financial institution, that institution will automatically make the declaration to the DGPCIE for you. Otherwise, you must make the declaration by filling a form with the DGPCIE.
If you import the Shares acquired under the Plan into Spain, you must declare the importation of the share certificates to the DGPCIE.
In addition, you must also file a declaration of the ownership of the Shares with the Directorate of Foreign Transactions
each January while the Shares are owned. These filings are made on standard forms furnished by the Directorate of Foreign Transactions.
When you receive any foreign currency payments (i.e., as a result of the sale of the Shares), you must inform the institution receiving the payment of the basis upon which such payment is made and provide certain specific information (e.g., name, address, and fiscal identification number; the name and corporate domicile of the company; the amount of the payment; the type of foreign currency received; the country of origin; and the reason for the payment).

Exhibit 10.28
Compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code
(a) It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (“Section 409A”), and all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding
taxes or penalties under Section 409A.
(b) Neither Grantee nor any of Grantee’s creditors or beneficiaries shall have the right to subject any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable under this 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 Grantee or for Grantee’s benefit under this Agreement may not be reduced by, or offset against, any amount owing by Grantee to the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
(c) If, at the time of Grantee’s separation from service (within the meaning of Section
409A), (i) Grantee is 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 pursuant to Section 4 of this Agreement but shall instead pay it, without interest, on the first business day after such six-month period or, if
earlier, upon the Grantee’s death.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, for the purpose of this Agreement, (i) if the RSUs have not previously been forfeited, the RSUs shall vest on a Disability, which shall mean that the Grantee is considered disabled in accordance with U.S. Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-3(i)(4), determined as if all permissible provisions of such regulation were in effect, and (ii) a Change of Control of the Company is considered to have occurred with respect to the Grantee upon the occurrence with respect to the Grantee of a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the
Company, as determined in accordance with U.S. Treasury Regulations section 1.409A-3(i)(5).
(e) Notwithstanding any provision of this 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 Agreement as the Company deems necessary or desirable to avoid the imposition of taxes or penalties under Section 409A. In any case, Grantee shall be solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on Grantee or for Grantee’s account in connection with this Agreement (including, without limitation, any taxes and penalties under Section 409A), and neither the
Company nor any of its subsidiaries shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold Grantee harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties.
