This Stock Bonus Award Agreement (this “Agreement”), made as of the 12th day of March, 2019 by and between Green Brick Partners, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Summer Loveland (the “Participant”), evidences the grant by the
Company of an Award of Common Stock to the Participant and the Participant’s acceptance of the Award in accordance with the provisions of the Company’s 2014 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Unless otherwise provided herein, all capitalized terms shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Plan. The Company and the Participant agree as
follows:
WHEREAS, the Committee
has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company to pay the Participant a discretionary bonus in the amount of $100,000, payable 60% of such amount payable in case on or before March 15, 2019 and the remaining 40% of such amount
payable in the form of a Stock Bonus Award, of fully vested shares of Common Stock (the “Additional 2018 Bonus”) granted under
the Plan on March 12, 2019.
1. Basis for Award. This Stock Bonus Award (as defined below) is made under Section 10 of the Plan for services rendered to the Company by the Participant.
2. Stock Awarded. The Company hereby awards to the Participant 6,521 shares of Common Stock subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement
(the “Stock Bonus Award”).
3. Vesting. The Stock Bonus Award is 100% vested and non-forfeitable.
4. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The transfer of Common Stock shall be subject to compliance by the Company and the Participant with all applicable requirements
of federal and state securities laws and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange on which the Common Stock may be listed at the time of such transfer.
5. Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the right, and is hereby authorized, to withhold the amount of any applicable withholding taxes in respect of the Annual Bonus,
including in respect of the Stock Bonus Award granted hereunder. The Participant may satisfy such withholding (i) in cash or by check, (ii) by having the Company withhold from the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable pursuant to
the Award a number of shares with a fair market value equal to such withholding liability or (iii) by such other method as the Committee may permit in accordance with applicable law.

encumbered by the Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or an
Affiliate; provided that the designation of a beneficiary shall not
constitute an assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance.
