2013 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

PERFORMANCE-BASED RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT

This Performance-Based Restricted Stock Agreement (the “Restricted Stock Agreement”) is entered into as of <Date Granted> between SPEEDWAY MOTORSPORTS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and <Name> (the “Recipient”).

WHEREAS, the Company has established the Speedway Motorsports, Inc. 2013 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), pursuant to which the Company may, from time to time, make grants of restricted shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), to eligible employees and other individuals providing services to the Company and its Subsidiaries; and

WHEREAS, in consideration for the Recipient’s service to the Company and/or its Subsidiaries, the Company has determined to grant the Recipient restricted shares of the Company’s Common Stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Restricted Stock Agreement;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1.             Grant of Restricted Stock. In consideration for the Recipient’s service to the Company and/or its Subsidiaries and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Restricted Stock Agreement and the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Recipient _______________ (____) restricted shares of Common Stock (the “Target Grant”). As used in this Restricted Stock Agreement, the term “Restricted Stock” shall mean the Target Grant or the Target Grant as adjusted pursuant to Section 2 below, as applicable at the given time.

2.             Vesting and Performance Conditions. The Restricted Stock shall remain subject to forfeiture and the restrictions on transferability provided under the Plan until the expiration of the following periods: <insert vesting schedule>. Vesting on any such date is subject to the Recipient’s continued service with the Company or its Subsidiaries through such date and subject to the other terms of this Restricted Stock Agreement. The Restricted Stock also shall become fully vested as provided under the Plan in connection with a “Change in Control.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the shares of Restricted Stock also are subject to forfeiture based upon the performance-based criteria set forth below, and may also be further subject to forfeiture or restrictions on transferability as set forth in the Plan or elsewhere in this Restricted Stock Agreement.

The Target Grant of Restricted Stock also shall be subject to forfeiture based on <insert performance-based criteria>.

3.             Termination of Service. If the Recipient incurs a Termination of Service, all shares of Restricted Stock not vested at the time of such termination shall be immediately and automatically forfeited by the Recipient.

4.             Restrictions on Transferability. The Recipient may not sell, assign, convey, pledge, exchange, hypothecate, alienate or otherwise dispose of or transfer the Restricted Stock in any manner to the extent it remains unvested. No assignment, pledge or transfer of the Restricted Stock, or of the rights represented thereby, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, shall be effective; but immediately upon any such attempt to assign, pledge or otherwise transfer the Restricted Stock, the Restricted Stock shall be forfeited.

5.             Company Policies. The Restricted Stock is subject to the terms and conditions of any policy regarding clawbacks, forfeitures, or recoupments adopted by the Company from time to time. Without limiting the foregoing, by acceptance of the Restricted Stock, the Recipient agrees to repay to the Company or any Subsidiary any amount that may be required to be repaid under any such policy.

6.             Forfeiture Procedures. In the event of any forfeiture of the Restricted Stock, such forfeiture shall be automatic and without further act or deed by the Recipient. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if requested by the Company (or its agent), the Recipient shall execute such documents (including, without limitation, a power of attorney in favor of the Company) and take such other action deemed necessary or desirable by the Company to evidence such forfeiture.

7.             Tax Matters. The Recipient shall pay or make provision for payment to the Company or its Subsidiary, as applicable, through payroll or other withholding (which withholding the Recipient hereby authorizes) or other means acceptable to the Committee and permissible under the Plan, the amount necessary to satisfy any federal, state or local withholding requirements applicable to any taxable event arising in connection with the Restricted Stock (including the payment of any dividends). If other satisfactory arrangements have not been made by the Recipient and unless otherwise provided by the Committee, the Recipient may elect to have the Company retain from any Common Stock otherwise deliverable to the Recipient upon vesting of the Restricted Stock such number of shares with a fair market value equal to the statutory minimum required withholding amount. The determination of the withholding amounts due in such event shall be made by the Company and its Subsidiaries and shall be binding upon the Recipient. The Company shall not be required to deliver (or release the restrictions on transfer of) such shares of Common Stock unless the Recipient has made acceptable arrangements to satisfy any such withholding requirements. Nothing in this Section shall be construed to impose on the Company a duty to withhold where applicable law does not require such withholding.

THE RECIPIENT ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE RECIPIENT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR, AND IS ADVISED TO CONSULT WITH THE RECIPIENT’S OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING, THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THE RECIPIENT THAT MAY ARISE IN CONNECTION WITH THE RESTRICTED STOCK, INCLUDING THE DECISION TO MAKE AND TIMELY FILE, AND THE CONSEQUENCES OF, ANY ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(B) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. THE RECIPIENT ALSO SHALL TIMELY DELIVER A COPY OF ANY SUCH SECTION 83(b) FILING TO THE COMPANY.

8.             Rights as Stockholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing vesting and transfer restrictions that apply to the Restricted Stock, but subject to the terms of this Restricted Stock Agreement and the Plan, the Recipient generally shall otherwise have the beneficial ownership of the Restricted Stock and shall be entitled to exercise the rights and privileges of a stockholder with respect to the Restricted Stock, including the right to vote such shares and the right to receive dividends (if any) paid with respect to such shares; provided, however, that (a) any dividend payments will be made no later than the end of the calendar year in which the dividends are paid to stockholders of the Common Stock or, if later, the fifteenth day of the third month following the date the dividends are paid to stockholders of the Common Stock; and (b) with respect to any shares of Common Stock that arise from any dividends with respect to the Restricted Stock or from adjustments under Section 10, the Recipient shall have the same rights and privileges, and shall be subject to the same restrictions, that apply to the Restricted Stock under this Restricted Stock Agreement and the Plan.

9.             Book-Entry Form. The shares of Restricted Stock generally shall be evidenced in book-entry or similar form and maintained by or on behalf of the Company in such form. In such case, no stock certificates shall be issued and the applicable restrictions will be noted in the records of the Company and its transfer agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the discretion of the Company, a certificate or certificates representing the Restricted Stock may be registered in the name of the Recipient and held in escrow or other custody by or on behalf of the Company. In either case, each certificate or book-entry record may bear such legends as the Company deems appropriate to reflect the applicable terms and conditions upon the Restricted Stock.

10.           Adjustments. In the event of a reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, extraordinary dividend, spin-off, combination of shares, merger, consolidation or similar transaction or other change in corporate capitalization affecting the Common Stock, equitable adjustments and/or substitutions, as applicable, will be made to the Restricted Stock by the Committee to prevent the dilution or enlargement of rights. The Committee also will make adjustments in its discretion to eliminate any resulting fractional shares.

The existence of the Restricted Stock does not affect in any way the authority of the Company and its stockholders to exercise their corporate rights and powers, including, but not by way of limitation, the right of the Company to authorize any adjustment, reclassification, reorganization, or other change in its capital or business structure, any merger or consolidation of the Company, the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the issuance of securities with preference ahead of or affecting the Common Stock, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its business or assets.

11.           Securities Laws. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary or in the Plan, the Company shall be under no obligation to issue any shares of Common Stock to the Recipient pursuant to this Restricted Stock Agreement unless and until the Company has determined that such issuance is either exempt from registration, or is registered, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and is either exempt from registration and qualification, or is registered or qualified, as applicable, under all applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws. Nothing in this Restricted Stock Agreement shall be construed to obligate the Company at any time to file or maintain a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to effect similar compliance under any applicable state laws with respect to the Common Stock that may be issued pursuant to this Restricted Stock Agreement. The Company may require that the Recipient make such representations and agreements and furnish such information as the Company deems appropriate to assure compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
