(1) These restricted stock units (the "Units") are granted pursuant to the Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). Each Unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock"), upon the vesting of the Units. The Units vest according to the following schedule: 1/4 vest on each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the date of grant (2/20/2015), subject to accelerated vesting of the entire award upon a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan). The Units also include dividend equivalent rights that entitle the reporting person to the same dividends that would be payable were the shares of Common Stock underlying the Units actually outstanding at the time such dividends were issued. The credited dividends will be paid concurrently with the issuance of the shares of Common Stock to the reporting person.
(2) These performance shares represent a contingent right to receive Common Stock, based on the Company's relative shareholder return versus that of the Company's peer group. As determined by the Company's Nominating, Governance & Compensation Committee ("NG&C Committee") and given the Company's relative shareholder return versus the relevant peer group over the two-year period commencing on January 1, 2013 and ending on December 31, 2014, each performance share represents the right to receive 0 shares of Common Stock.
(3) These performance shares represent a contingent right to receive Common Stock, based on the Company's relative shareholder return versus that of the Company's peer group.

(4) These options are exercisable in accordance with the following schedule: 1/4 of the options become exercisable on each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the date of grant (2/20/2015).
(5) These performance shares represent a contingent right to receive Common Stock, based on the Company's relative shareholder return versus that of the Company's peer group. Each performance share will settle for between 0 and 2 shares of Common Stock in the first quarter of 2016, based on achievement of performance measures over a one-year period, following certification by the NG&C Committee of the performance results.
(6) These performance shares represent a contingent right to receive Common Stock, based on the Company's relative shareholder return versus that of the Company's peer group.
