L.B. FOSTER COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(Dollars in thousands, except share data)
Note 1. Financial Statements
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all estimates and adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals, unless otherwise stated herein) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows of L.B. Foster Company and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income, and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 have been included. However, actual results could differ from those estimates and changes in those estimates are recorded when known. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2021 was derived from audited financial statements. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in L.B. Foster Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, references to “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” refer collectively to L.B. Foster Company and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Reclassifications
Certain accounts in the prior year consolidated financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes principally to conform to the presentation of the current year period. Effective for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, the Company implemented operational changes in how its Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) manages its businesses, including resource allocation and operating decisions. As a result of these changes, the Company has three reporting segments, representing the individual businesses that are run separately under the new structure: Rail, Technologies, and Services; Precast Concrete Products; and Steel Products and Measurement. The Company has revised the information for all periods presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect these reclassifications.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In March 2020 and as clarified in January 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. (“ASU”) 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or by another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The amendments are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impacts of the provisions of ASU 2020-04 on its financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Note 2. Business Segments
The Company is a global solutions provider of engineered, manufactured products and services that builds and supports infrastructure. The Company’s innovative engineering and product development solutions address the safety, reliability, and performance needs of its customers’ most challenging requirements. The Company maintains locations in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia. The Company’s segments represent components of the Company (a) that engage in activities from which revenue is generated and expenses are incurred, (b) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the CODM, who uses such information to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments, and (c) for which discrete financial information is available. Operating segments are evaluated on their segment profit contribution to the Company’s consolidated results. Other income and expenses, interest, income taxes, and certain other items are managed on a consolidated basis. The Company’s segment accounting policies are described in Note 2 Business Segments of the Notes to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2021.

Note 3. Revenue
Revenue from products or services provided to customers over time accounted for 27.5% and 27.9% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 28.8% and 26.8% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The majority of revenue under these long-term agreements is recognized over time either using an input measure based upon the proportion of actual costs incurred to estimated total project costs or an input measure based upon actual labor costs as a percentage of estimated total labor costs, depending upon which measure the Company believes best depicts its performance to date under the terms of the contract. Revenue recognized over time using an input measure was $20,089 and $27,687 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $39,411 and $48,795 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. A certain portion of the Company’s revenue recognized over time under these long-term agreements is recognized using an output method, specifically units delivered, based upon certain customer acceptance and delivery requirements. Revenue recognized over
10

time using an output measure was $16,013 and $15,487 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $26,994 and $23,751 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had contract assets of $31,023 and $36,179, respectively, that were recorded within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had contract liabilities of $2,584 and $3,235, respectively, that were recorded in “Deferred revenue” within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The majority of the Company’s revenue is from products transferred and services rendered to customers at a point in time. Point in time revenue accounted for 72.5% and 72.1% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 71.2% and 73.2% for six months ended June 30, 2022 . The Company recognizes revenue at the point in time at which the customer obtains control of the product or service, which is generally when the product title passes to the customer upon shipment or the service has been rendered to the customer. In limited cases, title does not transfer and revenue is not recognized until the customer has received the products at a physical location.

The timing of revenue recognition, billings, and cash collections results in billed receivables, costs in excess of billings (included in “Contract assets”), and billings in excess of costs (contract liabilities, included in “Deferred revenue”) within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Significant changes in contract assets during the six months ended June 30, 2022 included transfers of $14,235 from the contract assets balance as of December 31, 2021 to accounts receivable. Significant changes in contract liabilities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 resulted from increases of $2,570 due to billings in excess of costs, excluding amounts recognized as revenue during the period. Contract liabilities were reduced due to revenue recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 of $1,201 and $228, respectively, and revenue recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 of $2,642 and $904, respectively, which were included in contract liabilities at the beginning of each period.

The Company records provisions related to the allowance for credit losses associated with contract assets. Provisions are recorded based upon a specific review of individual contracts as necessary, and a standard provision over any remaining contract assets pooled together based on similar risk of credit loss. The development of these provisions are based on historic collection trends, accuracy of estimates within contract margin reporting, as well as the expectation that collection patterns, margin reporting, and bad debt expense will continue to adhere to patterns observed in recent years. These expectations are formed based on trends observed as well as current and expected future conditions.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had approximately $250,845 of obligations under new contracts and remaining performance obligations, which is also referred to as backlog. Approximately 5.3% of the June 30, 2022 backlog was related to projects that are anticipated to extend beyond June 30, 2023.

The Company performs goodwill impairment tests annually during the fourth quarter, and also performs interim goodwill impairment tests if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than the carrying amount. Qualitative factors are assessed to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than the carrying amount, which included the impacts of COVID-19. However, the future impacts of COVID-19 are unpredictable and are subject to change. No interim goodwill impairment test was required as a result of the evaluation of qualitative factors as of June 30, 2022.

On June 21, 2022, the Company acquired the stock of Skratch Enterprises Ltd. (“Skratch”) for $7,402, which is inclusive of deferred payments withheld by the Company of $1,228, to be paid over the next five years or utilized to satisfy post closing working capital adjustments or indemnity claims under the purchase agreement. Located in Telford, United Kingdom, Skratch offers a single-point supply solution model for clients, and enabling large scale deployments.

Note 5. Accounts Receivable
The Company extends credit based upon an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition and, while collateral is not required, the Company periodically receives surety bonds that guarantee payment. Credit terms are consistent with industry standards and practices. The amounts of trade accounts receivable as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 have been reduced by an allowance for credit losses of $515 and $547, respectively. Changes in reserves for uncollectible accounts, which are recorded as part of “Selling and administrative expenses” within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, resulted in expense of $150 and $40 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and expense of $211 and $18 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

13

The Company established the allowance for credit losses by calculating the amount to reserve based on the age of a given trade receivable and considering historical collection patterns and bad debt expense experience, in addition to any other relevant subjective adjustments to individual receivables made by management. The Company also considers current and expected future market and other conditions. Trade receivables are pooled within the calculation based on a range of ages, which we believe appropriately groups receivables of similar credit risk together.

The established reserve thresholds to calculate the allowance for credit loss are based on and supported by historic collection patterns and bad debt expense incurred by the Company, as well as the expectation that collection patterns and bad debt expense will continue to adhere to patterns observed in recent years, which was formed based on trends observed as well as current and expected future conditions, including the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Management maintains stringent credit review practices and works to maintain positive customer relationships to further mitigate credit risk.

The following table sets forth the Company’s allowance for credit losses:

The Company reviews its property, plant, and equipment for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment loss if it believes that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. There were no impairments of property, plant, and equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
Note 8. Leases

On August 13, 2021, the Company, its domestic subsidiaries, and certain of its Canadian and United Kingdom subsidiaries (collectively, the “Borrowers”), entered into the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, N.A., Citizens Bank, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, Bank of America, N.A., and BMO Harris Bank, National Association. The Credit Agreement modifies the prior revolving credit facility, as amended, on more favorable terms and extends the maturity date from April 30, 2024 to August 13, 2026. The Credit Agreement provides for a five-year, revolving credit facility that permits aggregate borrowings of the Borrowers up to $130,000 (a $15,000 increase over the previous commitment) with a sublimit of the equivalent of $25,000 U.S. dollars that is available to the Canadian and United Kingdom borrowers in the aggregate. The Credit Agreement’s incremental loan feature permits the Company to increase the available commitments under the facility by up to an additional $50,000 subject to the Company’s receipt of increased commitments from existing or new lenders and the satisfaction of certain conditions.

The obligation of the Company and its domestic, Canadian, and United Kingdom subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) under the Credit Agreement will be secured by the grant of a security interest by the Borrowers and Guarantors in substantially all of the assets owned by such entities. Additionally, the equity interests in each of the loan parties, other than the Company, and the equity interests held by each loan party in their subsidiaries, will be pledged to the lenders as collateral for the lending obligations.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at rates based upon either the base rate or LIBOR rate plus applicable margins. Applicable margins are dictated by the ratio of the Company’s total net indebtedness to the Company’s consolidated EBITDA for four trailing quarters, as defined in the Credit Agreement. The base rate is the highest of (a) the Overnight Bank Funding Rate plus 50 basis points, (b) the Prime Rate, or (c) the Daily LIBOR rate plus 100 basis points so long as the Daily LIBOR Rate is offered, ascertainable, and not unlawful (each as defined in the Credit Agreement). The base rate and LIBOR rate spreads range from 25 to 125 basis points and 125 to 225 basis points, respectively.
16


The Credit Agreement includes two financial covenants: (a) Maximum Gross Leverage Ratio, defined as the Company’s consolidated Indebtedness (as defined in the Credit Agreement) divided by the Company’s consolidated EBITDA, which must not exceed (i) 3.25 to 1.00 for all testing periods other than during an Acquisition Period, and (ii) 3.50 to 1.00 for all testing periods occurring during an Acquisition Period (as defined in the Credit Agreement), and (b) Minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, defined as the Company’s consolidated EBITDA divided by the Company’s Fixed Charges (as defined in the Credit Agreement), which must be more than 1.05 to 1.00.

The Credit Agreement permits the Company to pay dividends and make distributions and redemptions with respect to its stock provided no event of default or potential default (as defined in the Credit Agreement) has occurred prior to or after giving effect to the dividend, distribution, or redemption. Additionally, the Credit Agreement permits the Company to complete acquisitions so long as (a) no event of default or potential default has occurred prior to or as a result of such acquisition; (b) the liquidity of the Borrowers is not less than $15,000 prior to and after giving effect to such acquisition; and (c) the aggregate consideration for the acquisition does not exceed: (i) $50,000 per acquisition, so long as the Gross Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is less than or equal to 2.75 after giving effect to such acquisition; or (ii) $75,000 per acquisition, so long as the Gross Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 1.75 after giving effect to such acquisition.

Other restrictions exist at all times including, but not limited to, limitations on the Company’s sale of assets and the incurrence by either the Borrowers or the non-borrower subsidiaries of the Company of other indebtedness, guarantees, and liens.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with the covenants in the Credit Agreement, as amended. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had outstanding letters of credit of approximately $683 and had net available borrowing capacity of $81,489, subject to covenant restrictions. The maturity date of the facility is August 13, 2026.

Note 11. Income Taxes
For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $821 and $1,139 on pre-tax income of $2,797 and $3,993 for an effective income tax rate of 29.4% and 28.5%, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $313 and $818 on pre-tax income of $703 and $2,402 for an effective income tax rate of 44.5% and 34.1%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to state income taxes, nondeductible expenses, and research tax credits. Changes in pre-tax income projections, combined with the seasonal nature of our businesses, could also impact the effective income tax rate.
Note 12. Stock-Based Compensation
The Company applies the provisions of the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation,” to account for the Company’s stock-based compensation. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the calculated fair value of the award and is recognized over the employees’ requisite service periods. The Company
17

recorded stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock awards and performance share units of $925 and $386 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $1,183 and $1,213 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, unrecognized compensation expense for unvested awards approximated $4,104. The Company expects to recognize this expense over the upcoming 3.5 years through March 2026.

Shares issued as a result of vested stock-based compensation awards generally will be from previously issued shares that have been reacquired by the Company and held as treasury stock or authorized and previously unissued common stock.

Restricted Stock Awards, Performance Share Units, and Performance-Based Stock Awards
Under the 2006 Omnibus Plan, the Company grants eligible employees restricted stock and performance share units. The forfeitable restricted stock awards granted generally time-vest ratably over a three-year period, unless indicated otherwise by the underlying restricted stock award agreement. Since May 2018, awards of restricted stock have been subject to a minimum one-year vesting period, including those granted to non-employee directors. Performance share units are offered annually under separate three-year long-term incentive programs. Performance share units are subject to forfeiture and will be converted into common stock of the Company based upon the Company’s performance relative to performance measures and conversion multiples, as defined in the underlying program. If the Company’s estimate of the number of performance share units expected to vest changes in a subsequent accounting period, cumulative compensation expense could increase or decrease. The change will be recognized in the current period for the vested shares and would change future expense over the remaining vesting period.

Since May 1, 2017, non-employee directors have been permitted to defer receipt of annual stock awards and equity elected to be received in lieu of quarterly cash compensation. If so elected, these deferred stock units will be issued as common stock six months after separation from their service on the Board of Directors. Since May 2018, no non-employee directors have elected the option to receive deferred stock units of the Company’s common stock in lieu of director cash compensation.

In February 2022, the Compensation Committee approved the 2022 Performance Share Unit Program and the 2022 Executive Incentive Compensation Plan (consisting of cash and equity components).

On June 2, 2022, the shareholders approved the new 2022 Equity and Incentive Compensation plan as the successor to the 2006 Omnibus Plan and contingent Strategic Transformation Plan.

Note 13. Fair Value Measurements
The Company determines the fair value of assets and liabilities based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The fair values are based on assumptions that market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in valuation techniques and the inputs to valuations. The fair value hierarchy is based on whether the inputs to valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions of what market participants would use. The fair value hierarchy includes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value as described below:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

The classification of a financial asset or liability within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
18


Cash equivalents - Included in “Cash and cash equivalents” within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets are investments in non-domestic term deposits. The carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short maturity of the instruments.

LIBOR-based interest rate swaps - To reduce the impact of interest rate changes on outstanding variable-rate debt, the Company entered into a forward starting LIBOR-based interest rate swaps with notional values totaling $50,000 and $20,000 effective February 2017 and March 2022, respectively. The fair value of the interest rate swaps are based on market-observable forward interest rates and represents the estimated amount that the Company would pay to terminate the agreements. As such, the swap agreements are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the interest rate swaps were recorded in "Other current assets" when the interest rate swaps’ fair market value are in an asset position, and "Other accrued liabilities" when in a liability position within our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The $20,000 interest rate swaps that became effective March 2022 are accounted for as cash flow hedges and the objective of the hedges is to offset the expected interest variability on payments associated with the interest rate on our debt. The gains and losses related to the interest rate swaps are reclassified from “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and included in “Interest expense - net” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as the interest expense from our debt is recognized.

The Company accounted for the $50,000 of interest rate swaps that became effective February 2017 as cash flow hedges, these interest rate swaps expired February 2022.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized interest income of $19 and interest expense of $245, respectively, from interest rate swaps. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized interest expense of $78 and $480, respectively, from interest rate swaps.

In accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” the Company measures certain nonfinancial assets and liabilities at fair value, which are recognized and disclosed on a nonrecurring basis.
Note 14. Retirement Plans

Union Pacific Railroad (“UPRR”) Concrete Tie Matter
On March 13, 2019, the Company and its subsidiary, CXT Incorporated (“CXT”), entered into a Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with UPRR to resolve the pending litigation in the matter of Union Pacific Railroad Company v. L.B. Foster Company and CXT Incorporated, Case No. CI 15-564, in the District Court for Douglas County, Nebraska.

Under the Settlement Agreement, the Company and CXT will pay UPRR the aggregate amount of $50,000 without pre-judgment interest, which began with a $2,000 immediate payment, and with the remaining $48,000 paid in installments over a six-year period commencing on the effective date of the Settlement Agreement through December 2024 pursuant to a Promissory Note. Additionally, commencing in January 2019 and through December 2024, UPRR agreed to purchase and has been purchasing from the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates, a cumulative total amount of $48,000 of products and services, targeting $8,000 of annual purchases per year beginning March 13, 2019 per letters of intent under the Settlement Agreement. During the third quarter of 2021, in connection with the Company’s divestiture of its Piling Products division, the targeted annual purchases per year have been reduced to $6,000 for 2021 through 2024. The Settlement Agreement also includes a mutual release of all claims and liability regarding or relating to all CXT pre-stressed concrete railroad ties with no admission of liability and dismissal of the litigation with prejudice.

The expected payments under the UPRR Settlement Agreement for the remainder of the year ending December 31, 2022 and thereafter are as follows:
Year Ending December 31,
Remainder of 2022$6,000 
20238,000

Environmental and Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to national, state, foreign, provincial, and/or local laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment. The Company’s efforts to comply with environmental regulations may have an adverse effect on its future earnings.

On June 5, 2017, a General Notice Letter was received from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) indicating that the Company may be a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) regarding the Portland Harbor Superfund Site cleanup along with numerous other companies. More than 140 other companies received such a notice. The Company and a predecessor owned and operated a facility near the harbor site for a period prior to 1982. The net present value and undiscounted costs of the selected remedy throughout the harbor site are estimated by the EPA to be approximately $1.1 billion and $1.7 billion, respectively, and the remedial work is expected to take as long as 13 years to complete. These costs may increase given that the remedy will not be initiated or completed for several years. The Company is reviewing the basis for its identification by the EPA and the nature of the historic operations of a Company predecessor near the site. Additionally, the Company executed a PRP agreement which provides for a private allocation process among almost 100 PRPs in a working group whose work is ongoing. On March 26, 2020, the EPA issued a Unilateral Administrative Order to two parties requiring them to perform remedial design work for that portion of the Harbor Superfund Site that includes the area closest to the facility; the Company was not a recipient of this Unilateral Administrative Order. The Company cannot predict the ultimate impact of these proceedings because of the large number of PRPs involved throughout the harbor site, the size and extent of the site, the degree of contamination of various wastes, varying environmental impacts throughout the harbor site, the scarcity of data related to the facility once operated by the Company and a predecessor, potential comparative liability between the allocation parties and regarding non-participants, and the speculative nature of the remediation costs. Based upon information currently available, management does not believe that the Company’s alleged PRP status regarding the Portland Harbor Superfund Site or other compliance with the present environmental protection laws will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, competitive position, or capital expenditures of the Company. As more information develops and the allocation process is completed, and given the resolution of factors like those described above, an unfavorable resolution could have a material adverse effect.


21

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company maintained environmental reserves approximating $2,500 and $2,519, respectively. The following table sets forth the Company’s environmental obligation:
Environmental liability
Balance as of December 31, 2021$2,519 
Environmental obligations utilized(19)
Balance as of June 30, 2022$2,500 

The Company is also subject to other legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of its business. Legal actions are subject to inherent uncertainties, and future events could change management’s assessment of the probability or estimated amount of potential losses from pending or threatened legal actions. Based on available information, it is the opinion of management that the ultimate resolution of pending or threatened legal actions, both individually and in the aggregate, will not result in losses having a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or liquidity as of June 30, 2022.

If management believes that, based on available information, it is at least reasonably possible that a material loss (or additional material loss in excess of any accrual) will be incurred in connection with any legal actions, the Company discloses an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss, either individually or in the aggregate, as appropriate, if such an estimate can be made, or discloses that an estimate cannot be made. Based on the Company’s assessment as of June 30, 2022, no such disclosures were considered necessary.
Note 16. Subsequent Events
On August 1, 2022, the Company divested the assets of its rail spikes and anchors track components business (“Track Components”) located in St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Quebec, Canada. Cash proceeds from the transaction are expected to total $7,795, subject to indemnification obligations and working capital adjustment. The Track Components business was reported in the Rail Products business unit within the Rail, Technologies, and Services segment.

General Overview and Business Update
L.B. Foster Company is a global solutions provider of engineered, manufactured products and services that builds and supports infrastructure. The Company’s innovative engineering and product development solutions address the safety, reliability, and performance needs of its customers’ most challenging requirements. The Company maintains locations in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia.

On June 21, 2022, the Company acquired the stock of Skratch Enterprises Ltd. (“Skratch”) for $7,402. Skratch is an industry leader in digital system integration with expertise in advanced digital display technologies and capabilities currently serving retail markets in the U.K. The Company has collaborated with Skratch on projects in the past and believes joining the two companies will unlock the broader market potential for our respective solutions in the visual communications space. Skratch is reported within the Technology Services and Solutions business unit in the Rail, Technologies, and Services segment.

Sequentially, sales increased 33.1% versus the 2022 first quarter, which is consistent with historic seasonal trends. Orders and backlog levels for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 also remained strong, a reflection of a robust demand environment in markets served.

Net sales for the second quarter of 2022 were $131,515, a $23,007, or 14.9%, decrease versus the prior year quarter. The now divested Piling Products division contributed $22,091 of the year over year sales decline. Net sales increased in the Precast Concrete Products segment by $3,538 and Steel Products and Measurement segment, as adjusted to exclude the Piling Products division of , by $2,531, which was partially offset by a $6,985 decrease in Rail, Technologies, and Services segment sales.

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $23,293, a $2,868 decrease, or 11.0%, from the prior year quarter. The decline in gross profit was driven primarily by the Piling Products divestiture, coupled with lower volume and higher input costs, partially offset by favorable mix. Consolidated gross profit margin increased by 80 basis points to 17.7% when compared to the prior year quarter, and the Company is generally seeing progress on margin improvement through its recent pricing initiatives and favorable mix. Gross profit decreased in the Rail, Technologies, and Services segment by $999, driven by the $6,985 decrease in sales. Rail, Technologies, and Services gross profit margins increased 30 basis points due to increased sales in its higher margin Global Friction Management and Technology Services and Solutions business units which were partially offset by the lower margin Rail Products business unit. The Precast Concrete Products segment gross profit decreased $572, or 14.6%, despite increased sales volumes. The decline in gross profit margin in Precast Concrete Products, which was down 530 basis points compared to the prior year quarter, is principally attributable to continued higher raw material and labor costs, coupled with unfavorable building sales mix compared to last year’s quarter. The Steel Products and Measurement segment gross profit declined from the prior year by $1,297. This decline was primarily attributable to the sale of the Piling Products division of $2,056 and also due to inflationary pressure, particularly in the Bridge Products division. However, Steel Products and Measurement gross profit margin was up 420 basis points compared to the prior year, a reflection of a more favorable mix after the sale of the lower margin Piling Products business. The Company continues to focus on margin improvement measures to counteract inflationary pressures experienced.

Selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 decreased by $373, or 1.9%, from the prior year, primarily driven by decreases in expenses associated with the sale of the Piling Products division, partially offset by an increase related to strategic transformation plan and acquisition related expenses. Selling and administrative expenses as a percent of net sales were 14.7% versus 12.8% in the prior year quarter, a 190 basis points increase, due primarily to the decline in sales associated with the Piling Products divestiture.

Other income - net for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $701 while Other expense - net was $70 in the prior year quarter. Insurance proceeds received in the current year quarter and a favorable $489 purchase price adjustment from the sale of Piling Products were the drivers of the increase.

The Company’s effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was 29.4%, compared to 28.5% in the prior year quarter. The Company’s effective income tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 differed from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to state income taxes, nondeductible expenses, and research tax credits.

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2022 attributable to L.B. Foster Company was $2,010, or $0.18 per diluted share, a decrease of $866, or $0.09 per diluted share, from the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily driven by lower overall sales volumes primarily associated with the sale of the Piling Products business and continued inflationary pressure.

The Company’s consolidated backlog(a) was $250,845 as of June 30, 2022, a decrease of $2,386, or 0.9%, from the prior year, with increases across the Company offset by the divested Piling Products division, which contributed $33,682 to the year over year decline. The Rail, Technologies, and Services and Precast Concrete Product segments reported a $29,437 and $9,094 backlog increase versus the prior year quarter, respectively, while the Steel Products and Measurement segment, adjusted for the Piling Products divestiture, reported a decrease of $7,235 versus the prior year quarter. Sequentially, consolidated backlog(a) increased $6,227, or 2.5% from
24

March 31, 2022. Order levels(a) for three months ended June 30, 2022, when adjusted for the Piling Products sale, increased by $27,971, or 24.7%, from the prior year quarter.

While the current inflationary cost environment is expected to continue to put pressure on margins across our businesses throughout 2022, the sequential 110 basis point margin improvement versus the prior quarter is an indication of positive progress toward mitigating such pressures. Actions to continue to mitigate inflationary impacts as much as possible are ongoing. In addition, the Company continues to take proactive steps to manage disruptions in raw materials, labor, supply chain, service partners, and other lingering COVID-19 related effects, and experienced an ease in these impacts during the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

With the federal infrastructure support programs announced in 2020 and 2021, such as the U.S. Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act passed in November 2021, the Company is maintaining its optimistic outlook regarding longer-term trends in the North American freight and transit markets given supply chain and transportation needs coupled with expected government-subsidized investment. The Company believes that many of its businesses will continue to directly benefit from infrastructure investment activity. Additionally, with the proceeds from the Piling division divestiture, coupled with the additional flexibility and capacity resulting from the amendment and extension of our credit agreement in August 2021, the Company believes that it has significant capacity to pursue organic and acquisitive growth opportunities in 2022 and beyond. The Company continues to prioritize its portfolio transformation, as evidenced from the acquisitions of Skratch Enterprises Ltd. and Intelligent Video, Ltd. on June 21, 2022, and July 6, 2022, respectively, and the divested the assets of its rail spikes and anchors track components business on August 1, 2022.
(a) The Company defines new orders as a contractual agreement between the Company and a third-party in which the Company will, or has the ability to, satisfy the performance obligations of the promised products or services under the terms of the agreement. The Company defines backlog as contractual commitments to customers for which the Company’s performance obligations have not been met, including with respect to new orders and contracts for which the Company has not begun any performance. Management utilizes new orders and backlog to evaluate the health of the industries in which the Company operates, the Company’s current and future results of operations and financial prospects, and strategies for business development. The Company believes that new orders and backlog are useful to investors as supplemental metrics by which to measure the Company’s current performance and prospective results of operations and financial performance.

Second Quarter 2022 Compared to Second Quarter 2021
The Rail, Technologies, and Services segment sales for the three months ended June 30, 2022 decreased by $6,985, or 7.9%, compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease in the Rail Products business unit was driven by the timing of customer shipments versus the prior year quarter. The Rail Products business unit declined by $8,419, or 13.0%, offsetting a sales increase in the Global
26

Friction Management business unit of $2,082, or 17.1%. The Technology Services and Solutions business unit had a more modest sales decrease of $648, or 5.4%, compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease in the Rail Products business unit was driven by timing of customer order fulfillment versus the prior year quarter. The sales increase in the Global Friction Management business unit is due to strength in North American markets served.

The Rail, Technologies, and Services segment gross profit decreased by $999, or 6.0%, from the prior year quarter. The decrease was driven by overall lower sales volumes. Segment gross profit margins increased by 30 basis points as a result of stronger sales in the higher margin Global Friction Management and Technology Services and Solutions business units. Operating profit was $3,998, a $1,659 decrease over the prior year quarter, due primarily to lower overall gross profit levels and higher selling and administrative expenses.

During the current quarter, the Rail, Technologies, and Services segment had an increase in new orders of 31.1% compared to the prior year period, driven almost entirely by the Rail Products business unit. Backlog as of June 30, 2022 was $132,017, an increase of $29,437, or 28.7%, versus June 30, 2021, continued to show strength.

On June 21, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase the stock of Skratch Enterprises Ltd. (“Skratch”) for $7,402.

Second Quarter 2022 Compared to Second Quarter 2021

The Precast Concrete Products segment sales for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased by $3,538, or 17.6%, compared to the prior year quarter, which is a continued reflection of the strong demand environment both in the southern and northeastern United States markets served.

Precast Concrete Products gross profit decreased by $572, or 14.6%, from the prior year quarter. The decline is principally attributable to continued high raw material and labor costs, coupled with an unfavorable building sales mix compared to last year’s quarter. Segment gross profit margin declined by 530 bps for the second quarter of 2022. Operating loss for the second quarter of 2022 declined by $1,273 when compared to the operating profit in the prior year quarter, due to reduction in gross profit margin and increases in selling and administrative costs.

During the quarter, the Precast Concrete Products segment had an increase in new orders of 39.4% compared to the prior year quarter; another reflection of the strong demand environment. Backlog as of June 30, 2022 was $71,507, an increase of $9,094, or 14.6%, from June 30, 2021, remaining at historically high levels.

Second Quarter 2022 Compared to Second Quarter 2021
The Steel Products and Measurement segment sales for the three months ended June 30, 2022 decreased by $19,560, or 42.8%, compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease in sales for the second quarter of 2022 was attributable to the $22,091 decline in year over year sales from the Piling Products division, which was divested September 2021. The decline was partially offset by an increase
27

in Fabricated Steel Products, excluding the divested Piling Products division, of $1,705 and an increase of $784 in the Coatings and Measurement business unit.

Steel Products and Measurement gross profit decreased by $1,297, or 23.2%, from the prior year quarter, due to lower sales volume associated with the sale of the Piling Products business. The gross profit margin increased 420 basis points to 16.4%, as a result of a more favorable mix in 2022 due to the sale of the low margin of the divested Piling Products business. The segment operating profit was $762, a $52 decline from the prior year quarter. Selling and administrative expenses incurred by the segment decreased by $1,296 compared to the prior year quarter, primarily attributable to the Piling Products divestiture.

During the quarter, the Steel Products and Measurement segment new orders decreased by $25,661, or 50.1% compared to the prior year quarter, driven by a $25,089 decline from the divested Piling Products division. The Coatings and Measurement business unit experienced a decline in orders of $2,376, while Fabricated Steel Products, excluding the divested Piling Products division, experienced a slight increase. Backlog as of June 30, 2022 was $47,321, a decrease of $40,917, or 46.4%, from June 30, 2021 driven entirely by the Fabricated Steel Products business unit, $33,682 of which is related to the divested Piling Products division.

First Six Months 2022 Compared to First Six Months 2021
The Rail, Technologies, and Services segment sales for the six months ended June 30, 2022 decreased by $9,507, or 6.1%, compared to the prior year period. The decrease in sales was driven entirely by the Rail Products business unit, which declined by $12,357, or 11.4%, offsetting sales increases in both the Global Friction Management and Technology Services and Solutions business units of $2,359 and $491, respectively. The decrease in the Rail Products business unit was driven by the timing of customer shipments versus
29

the prior year period. The sales increase in the Global Friction Management business unit is due to strength primarily in domestic markets served.

The Rail, Technologies, and Services segment gross profit decreased by $1,277, or 4.3%, from the prior year quarter. The decrease was driven by overall lower sales volumes, offset in part by improved business mix. Segment gross profit margins increased by 40 basis points as a result of stronger sales in the higher margin Global Friction Management and Technology Services and Solutions business units, versus the lower-margin Rail Products businesses. Operating profit was $5,037, a $2,842 decrease over the prior year period, due in part to lower overall gross profit levels and increases in selling and administrative expenses.

During the current quarter, the Rail, Technologies, and Services segment had an increase in new orders of 32.1% compared to the prior year period, driven by improvements in all business units.

First Six Months 2022 Compared to First Six Months 2021
The Precast Concrete Products segment sales for the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased by $5,870, or 17.9%, compared to the prior year period, which is a continued reflection of the strong demand environment in the southern United States market served.

Precast Concrete Products gross profit decreased by $617, or 9.6%, from the prior year quarter, due to continued inflationary pressure on raw material and labor costs, unfavorable building sales mix and, to a lesser extent, manufacturing inefficiencies due to supply chain disruption. Segment gross profit margin declined by 460 bps for the six months ended June 30, 2022 versus the prior year period. Operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 2022 of $916 reflects a $1,947 decline from the prior year period, due to margin degradation and increases in selling and administrative costs.

During the quarter, the Precast Concrete Products segment had a decrease in new orders of 10.9% compared to the prior year period. New orders and backlog continue to remain strong given the robust demand environment in markets served.

First Six Months 2022 Compared to First Six Months 2021
The Steel Products and Measurement segment sales for the six months ended June 30, 2022 decreased by $36,656, or 44.3%, compared to the prior year period, due entirely to the impact of the divested Piling Products business, which drove a sales decline of $42,889 versus the prior year period. The decline in sales was partially offset by sales increases in the balance of the business units including the Fabricated Steel Products business sales, excluding Piling, which increased $3,749, and Coatings and Measurement where sales increased $2,477 versus the prior year period.

Steel Products and Measurement gross profit decreased by $3,357, or 36.8%, from the prior year period, due to lower sales volumes and increased raw material costs in the Fabricated Bridge business. However, the gross profit margin for the segment increased 150 basis points to 12.5%, a result of a more favorable mix in 2022 given the divestiture of the low margin Piling Products business. The
30

segment loss was $1,386, an increased loss of $1,273 from the prior year period. Selling and administrative expenses incurred by the segment decreased by $2,192 compared to the prior year period, primarily attributable to the Piling Products divestiture.

During the quarter, the Steel Products and Measurement segment new orders decreased by $36,949, or 42.3% compared to the prior year period, driven by a $45,664 decline from the divested Piling Products division. This decrease was partially offset by improvements in both Fabricated Steel Products, excluding the divested Piling Products division, and Coatings and Measurement.

Segment Backlog
Total Company backlog is summarized by business segment in the following table for the periods indicated:
June 30,
2022
December 31,
2021
June 30,
2021
Rail, Technologies, and Services$132,017 $96,573 $102,580 
Precast Concrete Products71,507 68,636 62,413 
Steel Products and Measurement47,321 44,980 88,238 
Total backlog $250,845 $210,189 $253,231 

The backlog for Steel Products and Measurement includes $33,682 related to the divested Piling Products division as of June 30, 2021 in the above table.

The Company’s backlog represents the sales price of received customer purchase orders and any contracts for which the performance obligations have not been met, and therefore are precluded from revenue recognition. Although the Company believes that the orders included in backlog are firm, customers may cancel or change their orders with limited advance notice; however, these instances have been rare. Backlog should not be considered a reliable indicator of the Company’s ability to achieve any particular level of revenue or financial performance. While a considerable portion of the Company’s business is backlog-driven, certain product lines within the Company are not driven by backlog as the orders are fulfilled shortly after they are received.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are its existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated by operations, and the available capacity under the revolving credit facility, which provides for a total commitment of up to $130,000. The Company’s primary needs for liquidity relate to working capital requirements for operations, capital expenditures, debt service obligations, and payments related to the Union Pacific Railroad Settlement. The Company’s total debt was $49,286 and $31,251 as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and was primarily comprised of borrowings under its revolving credit facility.

The following table reflects available funding capacity, subject to covenant restrictions, as of June 30, 2022:
June 30, 2022
Cash and cash equivalents$7,661 
Credit agreement:
Total availability under the credit agreement130,000 
Outstanding borrowings on revolving credit facility(49,194)
Letters of credit outstanding(683)
Net availability under the revolving credit facility80,123 
Total available funding capacity$87,784 

The Company’s cash flows are impacted from period to period by fluctuations in working capital. While the Company places an emphasis on working capital management in its operations, factors such as its contract mix, commercial terms, customer payment patterns, and market conditions as well as seasonality may impact its working capital. The Company regularly assesses its receivables and contract assets for collectability, and provides allowances for credit losses where appropriate. The Company believes that its reserves for credit losses are appropriate as of June 30, 2022, but adverse changes in the economic environment and adverse financial conditions of its customers resulting from, among other things, the COVID-19 pandemic, may impact certain of its customers’ ability to access capital and pay the Company for its products and services, as well as impact demand for its products and services.

Cash Flow from Operating Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, cash flows used in operating activities were $13,382, compared to cash flows provided by continuing operating activities of $6,842 during the prior year to date period. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the net income and adjustments to net income from continuing operating activities provided $7,277, compared to $9,677 in the 2021 period. Working capital and other assets and liabilities used $20,659 in the current period, compared to using $2,835 in the prior year period.

The Company’s calculation for days sales outstanding at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was 46 and 46 days, respectively, and the Company believes it has a high quality receivables portfolio.

Cash Flow from Investing Activities
Capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $3,048 and $2,248, respectively. The current period expenditures primarily relate to the implementation of the enterprise resource planning system at additional Company divisions and general plant and operational improvements throughout the Company. Expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily relate to the expansion of the Precast Concrete Products business line in Texas. On June 21, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase the stock of Skratch for $7,402, which included a cash outflow of $5,712 during the six months ended June 30, 2022. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company received final proceeds from the 2021 Piling Products divestiture of $1,195.

Cash Flow from Financing Activities
During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had an increase in outstanding debt of $18,877 and a decrease of $7,767, respectively. The increase in debt for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was due in part to the acquisition of Skratch on June 21, 2022, which contributed $6,518 to the increase, as well as the funding working of capital and other assets and liabilities. The decrease in net debt for the 2021 period was primarily attributable to the utilization of excess cash generated through operating activities. Treasury stock acquisitions of $401 and $547 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, represent stock repurchases from employees to satisfy their income tax withholdings in connection with the vesting of stock awards.

Financial Condition
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $7,661 in cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s cash management priority continues to be short-term maturities and the preservation of its principal balances. As of June 30, 2022, approximately $6,872 of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were held in non-domestic bank accounts. The Company principally maintains its cash and cash equivalents in accounts held by major banks and financial institutions.

The Company’s principal uses of cash have been to fund its operations, including capital expenditures, acquisitions, and to service its indebtedness. The Company views its liquidity as being dependent on its results of operations, changes in working capital needs, and its borrowing capacity. As of June 30, 2022, its revolving credit facility had $81,489 of net availability, while the Company had $49,286 in total debt. The Company’s current ratio as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was 2.10 and 2.08, respectively.

On August 13, 2021, the Company entered into the Credit Agreement, which increased the total commitments under the revolving credit facility to $130,000 from $115,000, extends the maturity from April 30, 2024 to August 13, 2026, and provides more favorable covenant terms. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest rates based upon either the base rate or LIBOR rate plus applicable margins. The Company believes that the combination of its cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, and the capacity under its revolving credit facility should provide the Company with sufficient liquidity to provide the flexibility to operate the business in a prudent manner and enable the Company to continue to service its outstanding debt. For a discussion of the terms and availability of the credit facilities, please refer to Note 9 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

32

To reduce the impact of interest rate changes on outstanding variable-rate debt, the Company entered into forward starting LIBOR-based interest rate swaps with notional values totaling $50,000 and $20,000, effective February 1, 2017 and March 1, 2022, respectively, at which point they effectively converted a portion of the debt from variable to fixed-rate borrowings during the term of the swap contract. During 2020, the Company dedesignated its cash flow hedges and accounted for the $50,000 tranche of interest rate swaps on a mark-to-market basis with changes in fair value recorded in current period earnings. During February 2022, the $50,000 tranche of interest rate swaps expired. As of June 30, 2022 the swap asset was $1,111 and as of December 31, 2021 the swap asset and liability were $175 and $159, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. When more than one accounting principle, or method of its application, is generally accepted, management selects the principle or method that, in its opinion, is appropriate in the Company’s specific circumstances. Application of these accounting principles requires management to reach opinions regarding estimates about the future resolution of existing uncertainties. As a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. In preparing these financial statements, management has reached its opinions regarding the best estimates and judgments of the amounts and disclosures included in the financial statements giving due regard to materiality. A summary of the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates is included in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
L.B. Foster Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of June 30, 2022. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such date such that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer, chief financial officer, or person performing such functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes to our “internal control over financial reporting” (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2022, and that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

(j)a contested election of Directors, including with respect to Directors elected under any proxy access procedures included in the Company’s organizational documents, as a result of which or in connection with which the persons who were Directors of the Company before such election or nominees approved by the Board for election to the Board cease to constitute a majority of the Board.
13.Detrimental Activity and Recapture Provisions. Any Evidence of Award may reference a clawback policy of the Company or provide for the cancellation or forfeiture of an award or the forfeiture and repayment to the Company of any gain related to an award, or other provisions intended to have a similar effect, upon such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Committee from time to time, if a Participant, either (a) during employment or other service with the Company or a Subsidiary, or (b) within a specified period after termination of such employment or service, engages in any detrimental activity, as described in the applicable Evidence of Award or such clawback policy. In addition, notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, any Evidence of Award or such clawback policy may also provide for the cancellation or forfeiture of an award or the forfeiture and repayment to the Company of any
    13    


Common Stock issued under and/or any other benefit related to an award, or other provisions intended to have a similar effect, including upon such terms and conditions as may be required by the Committee or under Section 10D of the Exchange Act and any applicable rules or regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission or any national securities exchange or national securities association on which the Common Stock may be traded.
14.Non-U.S. Participants. In order to facilitate the making of any grant or combination of grants under this Plan, the Committee may provide for such special terms for awards to Participants who are foreign nationals or who are employed by the Company or any Subsidiary outside of the United States of America or who provide services to the Company or any Subsidiary under an agreement with a foreign nation or agency, as the Committee may consider necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in local law, tax policy or custom. Moreover, the Committee may approve such supplements to or amendments, restatements or alternative versions of this Plan (including sub-plans) as it may consider necessary or appropriate for such purposes, without thereby affecting the terms of this Plan as in effect for any other purpose, and the secretary or other appropriate officer of the Company may certify any such document as having been approved and adopted in the same manner as this Plan. No such special terms, supplements, amendments or restatements, however, will include any provisions that are inconsistent with the terms of this Plan as then in effect unless this Plan could have been amended to eliminate such inconsistency without further approval by the Shareholders.
15.Transferability.
(r)Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, and subject to compliance with Section 17(b) of this Plan and Section 409A of the Code, no Option Right, Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Unit, Performance Share, Performance Unit, Cash Incentive Award, award contemplated by Section 9 of this Plan or dividend equivalents paid with respect to awards made under this Plan will be transferable by the Participant except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. In no event will any such award granted under this Plan be transferred for value. Where transfer is permitted, references to “Participant” shall be construed, as the Committee deems appropriate, to include any permitted transferee to whom such award is transferred. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, Option Rights and Appreciation Rights will be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by him or her or, in the event of the Participant’s legal incapacity to do so, by his or her guardian or legal representative acting on behalf of the Participant in a fiduciary capacity under state law or court supervision.
(s)The Committee may specify on the Date of Grant that part or all of the shares of Common Stock that are (i) to be issued or transferred by the Company upon the exercise of Option Rights or Appreciation Rights, upon the termination of the Restriction Period applicable to Restricted Stock Units or upon payment under any grant of Performance Shares or Performance Units or (ii) no longer subject to the substantial risk of forfeiture and restrictions on transfer referred to in Section 6 of this Plan, will be subject to further restrictions on transfer, including minimum holding periods.
16.Withholding Taxes. To the extent that the Company is required to withhold federal, state, local or foreign taxes or other amounts in connection with any payment made or benefit realized by a Participant or other person under this Plan, and the amounts available to the Company for such withholding are insufficient, it will be a condition to the receipt of such payment or the realization of such benefit that the Participant or such other person make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for payment of the balance of such taxes or other amounts required to be withheld, which arrangements (in the discretion of the Committee) may include relinquishment of a portion of such benefit. If a Participant’s benefit is to be received in the form of Common Stock, and such Participant fails to make arrangements for the payment of
    14    


taxes or other amounts, then, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Company will withhold shares of Common Stock having a value equal to the amount required to be withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, when the Participant is required to pay the Company an amount required to be withheld under applicable income, employment, tax or other laws, the Participant may elect, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, to satisfy the obligation, in whole or in part, by having withheld, from the shares of Common Stock required to be delivered to the Participant, shares of Common Stock having a value equal to the amount required to be withheld or by delivering to the Company other shares of Common Stock held by such Participant. The Committee may also provide for automatic and mandatory withholding of shares of Common Stock from an award by the Company in connection with the Participant’s satisfaction of such obligations. The Common Stock used for tax or other withholding will be valued at an amount equal to the fair market value of such Common Stock on the date the benefit is to be included in Participant’s income. In no event will the fair market value of the Common Stock to be withheld and delivered pursuant to this Section 16 exceed the minimum amount required to be withheld, unless (i) an additional amount can be withheld and not result in adverse accounting consequences and (ii) such additional withholding amount is authorized by the Committee. Participants will also make such arrangements as the Company may require for the payment of any withholding tax or other obligation that may arise in connection with the disposition of Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of Option Rights.
17.Compliance with Section 409A of the Code.
(a)To the extent applicable, it is intended that this Plan and any grants made hereunder comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, so that the income inclusion provisions of Section 409A(a)(1) of the Code do not apply to the Participants. This Plan and any grants made hereunder will be administered in a manner consistent with this intent. Any reference in this Plan to Section 409A of the Code will also include any regulations or any other formal guidance promulgated with respect to such section by the U.S. Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service.
(b)Neither a Participant nor any of a Participant’s creditors or beneficiaries will have the right to subject any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) payable under this Plan and grants hereunder to any anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment or garnishment. Except as permitted under Section 409A of the Code, any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) payable to a Participant or for a Participant’s benefit under this Plan and grants hereunder may not be reduced by, or offset against, any amount owed by a Participant to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.
(c)If, at the time of a Participant’s separation from service (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code), (i) the Participant will be a specified employee (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and using the identification methodology selected by the Company from time to time) and (ii) the Company makes a good faith determination that an amount payable hereunder constitutes deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) the payment of which is required to be delayed pursuant to the six-month delay rule set forth in Section 409A of the Code in order to avoid taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code, then the Company will not pay such amount on the otherwise scheduled payment date but will instead pay it, without interest, on the tenth business day of the seventh month after such separation from service.
(d)Solely with respect to any award that constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code and that is payable on account of a Change in Control (including any installments or stream of payments that are accelerated on account of a Change in Control), a Change in Control shall occur only if such event also constitutes a “change
    15    


in the ownership,” “change in effective control,” and/or a “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of assets” of the Company as those terms are defined under Treasury Regulation §1.409A-3(i)(5), but only to the extent necessary to establish a time and form of payment that complies with Section 409A of the Code, without altering the definition of Change in Control for any purpose in respect of such award.
(e)Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan and grants hereunder to the contrary, in light of the uncertainty with respect to the proper application of Section 409A of the Code, the Company reserves the right to make amendments to this Plan and grants hereunder as the Company deems necessary or desirable to avoid the imposition of taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code. In any case, a Participant will be solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on a Participant or for a Participant’s account in connection with this Plan and grants hereunder (including any taxes and penalties under Section 409A of the Code), and neither the Company nor any of its affiliates will have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold a Participant harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties.
18.Amendments.
(t)The Board may at any time and from time to time amend this Plan in whole or in part; provided, however, that if an amendment to this Plan, for purposes of applicable stock exchange rules and except as permitted under Section 11 of this Plan, (i) would materially increase the benefits accruing to Participants under this Plan, (ii) would materially increase the number of securities which may be issued under this Plan, (iii) would materially modify the requirements for participation in this Plan, or (iv) must otherwise be approved by the Shareholders in order to comply with applicable law or the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market or, if the Common Stock is not traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market, the principal national securities exchange upon which the Common Stock is traded or quoted, all as determined by the Board, then, such amendment will be subject to approval by the Shareholders and will not be effective unless and until such approval has been obtained.
(u)Except in connection with a corporate transaction or event described in Section 11 of this Plan or in connection with a Change in Control, the terms of outstanding awards may not be amended to reduce the Option Price of outstanding Option Rights or the Base Price of outstanding Appreciation Rights, or cancel outstanding “underwater” Option Rights or Appreciation Rights (including following a Participant’s voluntary surrender of “underwater” Option Rights or Appreciation Rights) in exchange for cash, other awards or Option Rights or Appreciation Rights with an Option Price or Base Price, as applicable, that is less than the Option Price of the original Option Rights or Base Price of the original Appreciation Rights, as applicable, without approval by the Shareholders. This Section 18(b) is intended to prohibit the repricing of “underwater” Option Rights and Appreciation Rights and will not be construed to prohibit the adjustments provided for in Section 11 of this Plan. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, this Section 18(b) may not be amended without approval by the Shareholders.
(v)If permitted by Section 409A of the Code, but subject to the paragraph that follows, including in the case of termination of employment or service, or in the case of unforeseeable emergency or other circumstances or in the event of a Change in Control, to the extent a Participant holds an Option Right or Appreciation Right not immediately exercisable in full, or any Restricted Stock as to which the substantial risk of forfeiture or the prohibition or restriction on transfer has not lapsed, or any Restricted Stock Units as to which the Restriction Period has not been completed, or any Cash Incentive Awards, Performance Shares or Performance Units which have not been fully earned, or any dividend equivalents or other awards made pursuant to Section 9 of this Plan subject to any vesting schedule or transfer
    16    


restriction, or who holds Common Stock subject to any transfer restriction imposed pursuant to Section 15(b) of this Plan, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for continued vesting or accelerate the time at which such Option Right, Appreciation Right or other award may vest or be exercised or the time at which such substantial risk of forfeiture or prohibition or restriction on transfer will lapse or the time when such Restriction Period will end or the time at which such Cash Incentive Awards, Performance Shares or Performance Units will be deemed to have been earned or the time when such transfer restriction will terminate or may waive any other limitation or requirement under any such award.
(w)Subject to Section 18(b) of this Plan, the Committee may amend the terms of any award theretofore granted under this Plan prospectively or retroactively. Except for adjustments made pursuant to Section 11 of this Plan, no such amendment will materially impair the rights of any Participant without his or her consent. The Board may, in its discretion, terminate this Plan at any time. Termination of this Plan will not affect the rights of Participants or their successors under any awards outstanding hereunder and not exercised in full on the date of termination.
19.Governing Law. This Plan and all grants and awards and actions taken hereunder will be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal substantive laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
20.Effective Date/Termination. This Plan will be effective as of the Effective Date. No grants will be made after the Effective Date under the Predecessor Plan provided that outstanding awards granted under the Predecessor Plan will continue unaffected following the Effective Date. No grant will be made under this Plan on or after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, but all grants made prior to such date will continue in effect thereafter subject to the terms thereof and of this Plan. For clarification purposes, the terms and conditions of this Plan shall not apply to or otherwise impact previously granted and outstanding awards under the Predecessor Plan, as applicable.
21.Miscellaneous Provisions.
(k)The Company will not be required to issue any fractional shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Plan. The Committee may provide for the elimination of fractions or for the settlement of fractions in cash.
(l)This Plan will not confer upon any Participant any right with respect to continuance of employment or other service with the Company or any Subsidiary, nor will it interfere in any way with any right the Company or any Subsidiary would otherwise have to terminate such Participant’s employment or other service at any time.
(m)Except with respect to Section 21(e) of this Plan, to the extent that any provision of this Plan would prevent any Option Right that was intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option from qualifying as such, that provision will be null and void with respect to such Option Right. Such provision, however, will remain in effect for other Option Rights and there will be no further effect on any provision of this Plan.
(n)No award under this Plan may be exercised by the holder thereof if such exercise, and the receipt of cash or shares thereunder, would be, in the opinion of counsel selected by the Company, contrary to law or the regulations of any duly constituted authority having jurisdiction over this Plan.
    17    


(o)Absence on leave approved by a duly constituted officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries will not be considered interruption or termination of service of any employee for any purposes of this Plan or awards granted hereunder.
(p)No Participant will have any rights as a Shareholder with respect to any Common Stock subject to awards granted to him or her under this Plan prior to the date as of which he or she is actually recorded as the holder of such Common Stock upon the share records of the Company.
(q)The Committee may condition the grant of any award or combination of awards authorized under this Plan on the surrender or deferral by the Participant of his or her right to receive a cash bonus or other compensation otherwise payable by the Company or a Subsidiary to the Participant.
(r)Except with respect to Option Rights and Appreciation Rights, the Committee may permit Participants to elect to defer the issuance of Common Stock under this Plan pursuant to such rules, procedures or programs as it may establish for purposes of this Plan and which are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. The Committee also may provide that deferred issuances and settlements include the crediting of dividend equivalents or interest on the deferral amounts.
(s)If any provision of this Plan is or becomes invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or would disqualify this Plan or any award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision will be construed or deemed amended or limited in scope to conform to applicable laws or, in the discretion of the Committee, it will be stricken and the remainder of this Plan will remain in full force and effect. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan or an Evidence of Award to the contrary, nothing in this Plan or in an Evidence of Award prevents a Participant from providing, without prior notice to the Company, information to governmental authorities regarding possible legal violations or otherwise testifying or participating in any investigation or proceeding by any governmental authorities regarding possible legal violations, and for purpose of clarity a Participant is not prohibited from providing information voluntarily to the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 21F of the Exchange Act.
22.Share-Based Awards in Substitution for Awards Granted by Another Company. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary:
(x)Awards may be granted under this Plan in substitution for or in conversion of, or in connection with an assumption of, stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units or other share or share-based awards held by awardees of an entity engaging in a corporate acquisition or merger transaction with the Company or any Subsidiary. Any conversion, substitution or assumption will be effective as of the close of the merger or acquisition, and, to the extent applicable, will be conducted in a manner that complies with Section 409A of the Code. The awards so granted may reflect the original terms of the awards being assumed or substituted or converted for and need not comply with other specific terms of this Plan, and may account for Common Stock substituted for the securities covered by the original awards and the number of shares subject to the original awards, as well as any exercise or purchase prices applicable to the original awards, adjusted to account for differences in stock prices in connection with the transaction.
(y)Any Common Stock that is issued or transferred by, or that is subject to any awards that are granted by, or become obligations of, the Company under Section 22(a) of this Plan will not reduce the shares of Common Stock available for issuance or transfer under this Plan or otherwise count against the limits contained in Section 3 of this Plan. In addition, no shares of Common Stock subject to an award that is granted by, or becomes an obligation of, the
    18    


Company under Section 22(a) of this Plan, will be added to the aggregate limit contained in Section 3(a)(i) of this Plan pursuant to the share recycling provisions set forth in Section 3(b) of this Plan.

APPENDIX A
TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO
L.B. FOSTER COMPANY STRATEGY TRANSFORMATION PLAN

1. Dividends. Performance-based stock awards hereunder will not be credited with dividends that are paid on the Company's Common Stock.
2.Tax Consequences/Withholding.
(a)It is intended that: (i) a Participant's performance-based stock award hereunder shall be considered to be subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture in accordance with those terms as defined in Section 409A and 3121(v)(2) of the Code; and (ii) a Participant shall have merely an unfunded, unsecured promise to be paid a benefit, and such unfunded promise shall not consist of a transfer of "property" within the meaning of Code Section 83.
(b)Participant acknowledges that any income for foreign, federal, state or local income tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that the Participant is required to recognize on account of the vesting of the performance-based stock award and/or issuance of the shares of Common Stock under this award to Participant shall be subject to withholding of tax by the Company. In accordance with administrative procedures established by the Company, in order to satisfy Participant’s minimum statutory withholding tax obligations, if any, on account of the vesting of the performance-based stock award and/or issuance of shares of Common Stock under this award, the Company will withhold from the performance-based stock to be issued to the Participant a sufficient number of whole shares distributable in connection with this award equal to the applicable minimum statutory withholding tax obligation.
(c)This Program is intended to be excepted from coverage under Section 409A and shall be construed accordingly. Notwithstanding any provision of this Program to the contrary, if any benefit provided under this Program is subject to the provisions of Section 409A, the provisions of the Program will be administered, interpreted and construed in a manner necessary to comply with Section 409A (or disregarded to the extent such provision cannot be so administered, interpreted or construed). Notwithstanding, Section 409A may impose upon the Participant certain taxes or other charges for which the Participant is and shall remain solely responsible, and nothing contained in this Program or the Plan shall be construed to obligate the Compensation Committee, the Company or any Subsidiary for any such taxes or other charges
3. Non-Competition.
a.The Participants hereunder agree that this Section is reasonable and necessary in order to protect the legitimate business interests and goodwill of the Company, including the Company's trade secrets, valuable confidential business and professional information, substantial relationships with prospective and existing customers and clients, and specialized training provided to Participants and other employees of the Company. The Participants acknowledge and recognize the highly competitive nature of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries and accordingly agree that during the term of each of their employment and for a period of two (2) years after the termination thereof:
i.The Participants will not directly or indirectly engage in any business substantially similar to any line of business conducted by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including, but not limited to, where such engagement is as an officer, director, proprietor, employee, partner, investor (other than as a holder of less than 1% of the outstanding capital stock of a publicly traded corporation), consultant, advisor, agent or sales representative, in any geographic region in which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries conducted business;
ii.The Participants will not contact, solicit, perform services for, or accept business from any customer or prospective customer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in any line of business conducted by the Company or any of its subsidiaries;



iii.The Participants will not directly or indirectly induce any employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to: (1) engage in any activity or conduct which is prohibited pursuant to subparagraph 11(a)(i) or (2) terminate such employee's employment with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Moreover, the Participants will not directly or indirectly employ or offer employment (in connection with any business substantially similar to any line of business conducted by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) to any person who was employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries unless such person shall have ceased to be employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for a period of at least 12 months; and
iv.The Participants will not directly or indirectly assist others in engaging in any of the activities, which are prohibited under subparagraphs (a)(i-iii) above.
a.It is expressly understood and agreed that although the Participants and the Company consider the restrictions contained in this Section 11 to be reasonable, if a final judicial determination is made by a court of competent jurisdiction that the time or territory or any other restriction contained in this Program is an unenforceable restriction against any Participant, the provisions of this Program shall not be rendered void but shall be deemed amended to apply as to such maximum time and territory and to such maximum extent as such court may judicially determine or indicate to be enforceable against such Participant. Alternatively, if any court of competent jurisdiction finds that any restriction contained in this Program is unenforceable, and such restriction cannot be amended so as to make it enforceable, such finding shall not affect the enforceability of any of the other restrictions contained herein. The restrictive covenants set forth in this Section 11 shall be extended by any amount of time that a Participant is in breach of such covenants, such that the Company receives the full benefit of the time duration set forth above.
4.Confidential Information and Trade Secrets. The Participants and the Company agree that certain materials, including, but not limited to, information, data and other materials relating to customers, development programs, costs, marketing, trading, investment, sales activities, promotion, credit and financial data, manufacturing processes, financing methods, plans or the business and affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries, constitute proprietary confidential information and trade secrets. Accordingly, the Participants will not at any time during or after a Participant's employment with the Company (including any Subsidiary) disclose or use for such Participant's own benefit or purposes or the benefit or purposes of any other person, firm, partnership, joint venture, association, corporation or other business organization, entity or enterprise other than the Company and any of its affiliates, any proprietary confidential information or trade secrets, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to information which is not unique to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or which is generally known to the industry or the public other than as a result of such Participant's breach of this covenant. The Participants agree that upon termination of employment with the Company (including any Subsidiary) for any reason, the Participants will immediately return to the Company all memoranda, books, papers, plans, information, letters and other data, and all copies thereof or therefrom, which in any way relate to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, except that the Participants may retain personal notes, notebooks and diaries. The Participants further agree that the Participants will not retain or use for their own account at any time any trade names, trademark or other proprietary business designation used or owned in connection with the business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.
5.Remedies; Forfeiture; Recoupment.
a.The Participants acknowledge that a violation or attempted violation on a Participant's part of Non-Competition and Confidential Information and Trade Secrets covenants (the “Covenants”) hereunder will cause irreparable damage to the Company and its Subsidiaries, and the Participants therefore agree that the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be entitled as a matter of right to an injunction, out of any court of competent jurisdiction, restraining any violation or further violation of such promises by the Participants or a Participant's employees, partners or agents. The Participants agree that such right to an injunction is cumulative and in addition to whatever



other remedies the Company (including any Subsidiary) may have under law or equity, and the Participants' obligations to make timely payment to the Company as set forth in Section 13(b) of this Program. The Participants further acknowledge and agree that a Participant's award shall be cancelled and forfeited without payment by the Company if such Participant breaches any of his or her obligations contained in the Covenants set forth herein.
b.At any point after becoming aware of a breach of any obligation set forth in the Covenants of this Program, the Company shall provide notice of such breach to a Participant. By agreeing to participate in this Program, the Participants agree that within ten (10) days after the date the Company provides such notice, a Participant shall pay to the Company in cash an amount equal to any and all distributions paid to or on behalf of such Participant under this Program within the six (6) months prior to the date of the earliest breach. The Participant agrees that failure to make such timely payment to the Company constitutes an independent and material breach of the terms and conditions of this Program, for which the Company may seek recovery of the unpaid amount as liquidated damages, in addition to all other rights and remedies the Company may have resulting from a Participant's breach of the obligations set forth in Sections 11 and 12. The Participants agree that timely payment to the Company as set forth in this provision of the Program is reasonable and necessary because the compensatory damages that will result from breaches of the Covenants cannot readily be ascertained. Further, the Participants agree that timely payment to the Company as set forth in this provision of the Program is not a penalty, and it does not preclude the Company from seeking all other remedies that may be available to the Company, including without limitation those set forth in this Section 13.
c.All awards granted hereunder are made subject to the L.B. Foster Executive Recoupment Policy which is incorporated herein by reference (the “Policy.”) The Policy provides for the clawback by the Company and repayment by the Participant of cash awards paid hereunder in the event of an accounting restatement applicable to any financial reporting period within the Performance Period due to material noncompliance of the Company with any financial reporting requirement under the securities or other applicable laws.
6.Assignment/Nonassignment.
a.The Company shall have the right to assign this Program, and the Participants agree to remain obligated by all provisions of this Program that are assigned to any successor, assign or surviving entity. The obligations of the Company under the Program shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Company. Any successor to the Company is an intended third party beneficiary of this Program.
b.The awards shall not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred or disposed of (a "Transfer") in any manner, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any attempt by a Participant to Transfer the award in violation of the terms of the Program shall render the Performance Share Units null and void, and result in the immediate forfeiture of such award, without payment by the Company or any Subsidiary.
7.Impact on Benefit Plans. Issuances under the Program shall not be considered as earnings for purposes of the Company's and/or Affiliate's qualified retirement plans or any such retirement or benefit plan unless specifically provided for therein. Nothing herein shall prevent the Company or any Affiliate from maintaining additional compensation plans and arrangements for its employees.
8.Changes in Stock. In the event of a stock split, stock dividend, or similar event, the awards and the shares of Company common stock on which the average consecutive stock price targets are based shall be appropriately adjusted to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of Participants which would otherwise result from any such transaction, provided such adjustment shall be consistent with Code Section 409A.



9.Governing Law, Jurisdiction, and Venue.
a.This Program shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law.
b.Participant hereby irrevocably submits to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania or the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania in any action or proceeding arising out of, or relating to, this Program (whether such action or proceeding arises under contract, tort, equity or otherwise). Participant hereby irrevocably waives any objection which Participant now or hereafter may have to the laying of venue or personal jurisdiction of any such action or proceeding brought in said courts.
c.Jurisdiction over, and venue of, any such action or proceeding shall be exclusively vested in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania or the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania.
d.Provided that the Company commences any such action or proceeding in the courts identified herein, Participant irrevocably waives Participant's right to object to or challenge the above selected forum on the basis of inconvenience or unfairness under 28 U.S.C. § 1404, 42 Pa. C.S. § 5322 or similar state or federal statutes. Participant agrees to reimburse the Company for all of the attorney fees and costs it incurs to oppose Participant's efforts to challenge or object to litigation proceeding in the courts identified in Section 17(b) with respect to actions arising out of or relating to this Program (whether such actions arise under contract, tort, equity or otherwise).
10.Failure to Enforce Not a Waiver. The failure of the Company to enforce at any time any provision of this Program shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provision or of any other provision hereof.
11.Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Program shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
12.Funding. The Program is not funded and all amounts payable hereunder, if any, shall be paid from the general assets of the Company or its Affiliate, as applicable. No provision contained in this Program or the Plan and no action taken pursuant to the provisions of this Program or the Plan shall create a trust of any kind or require the Company to maintain or set aside any specific funds to pay benefits hereunder. To the extent a Participant acquires a right to receive payments from the Company under the Program, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.
13.Headings. The descriptive headings of the Sections of this Program are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Program.
14.Amendment or Termination of this Program. This Program may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Board at any time. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision of this Program to the contrary, the Board may, in the sole discretion and without the Participants’ consent, modify or amend the terms of the Program or a grant, or take any other action it deems necessary or advisable, to cause the Program to comply with Section 409A. Any modification, amendment, suspension or termination shall only be effective upon a writing issued by the Board, and a Participant shall not offer evidence of any purported oral modifications or amendments to vary or contradict the terms of this Program document.

Exhibit 10.3

RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT
(NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR)
(Section 6 Of The 2022 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan)
This Restricted Stock Agreement set forth below (this “Agreement”) is dated as of June 2, 2022 (the “Issue Date”) and is between L. B. Foster Company, a Pennsylvania corporation (“Company”), and [NAME] (the “Shareholder”).
The Company has established its 2022 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), to advance the interests of the Company and its Shareholders by providing incentives to certain eligible persons who contribute significantly to the strategic and long-term performance objectives and growth of the Company. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement have the same meaning given them in the Plan.
Pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee has full power and authority to direct the execution and delivery of this Agreement in the name and on behalf of the Company, and has authorized the execution and delivery of this Agreement.
AGREEMENT
The parties, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:
Section 1.    Issuance of Stock. Subject and pursuant to all terms and conditions stated in this Agreement and in the Plan, as of the Issue Date, the Company hereby grants to Shareholder [# OF RESTRICTED SHARES] shares of Company common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), pursuant to Section 6 of the Plan. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Shares” shall include all of the shares of Common Stock issued to Shareholder pursuant to this Agreement or issued with respect to such shares of Common Stock, including, but not limited to, shares of Company capital stock issued by way of a stock dividend or stock split or in connection with a combination of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or other reorganization.
Section 2.    Vesting; Rights; Obligations; and Restrictions on Transfer.
(a)    None of the Shares may be sold, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered or disposed of until they have vested in accordance with the terms of this Section 2. Except as set forth in this Section 2, effective at the close of business on the date Shareholder ceases to be a Director for any reason other than as set forth in this Agreement, any Shares that are not vested in accordance with this Section 2, and any dividends accrued pursuant to Section 2(c) below, shall be automatically forfeited without any further obligation on the part of the Company. Shareholder hereby assigns and transfers any forfeited Shares and the stock certificate(s) or other evidence of ownership representing such Shares to the Company.
(b)    All of the Shares will vest 100% at the end of the approximate one-year period beginning on the Issue Date and ending on the date of the next regular annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders, provided that this approximate one-year period may not be less than 50 weeks per Section 3(e) of the Plan (the Vesting Date), subject to Shareholder’s continued service as a Director of the Company until such Vesting Date. However, any unvested Shares shall immediately vest in full upon the occurrence of the following events if such event(s) occur(s) prior to the Vesting Date: (i) Shareholder experiences a Separation from Service as a Director due to Shareholder’s death or Disability; or (ii) Retirement of Shareholder.





(c)    Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2 and the provisions of the Plan, Shareholder shall have all rights of a shareholder with respect to the Shares, including the right to vote the Shares and to receive dividends, provided, however, that until such time as the Shares, or portion thereof, shall have vested, the Company shall accrue on its books and records for the benefit of the Shareholder an amount equal to the dividend payment that would otherwise have been received on the Shares but for this Agreement to accrue the dividend payments. Dividends accrued for the benefit of the Shareholder shall be payable in cash, as the Shares vest with payment to be made by the Company, or its agent, within ten (10) business days after vesting.
(d)    The certificates, if any, representing unvested Shares will bear the following or similar legend:
“The securities represented by this certificate are subject to forfeiture and restrictions on transfer as set forth in the Restricted Stock Agreement between the issuer and the initial holder of these shares. A copy of that document may be obtained by the holder without charge at the issuer’s principal place of business or upon written request.”
Section 3.    Investment Representation. Shareholder hereby acknowledges that the Shares cannot be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of an effective registration statement for the Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and applicable state securities laws or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or as otherwise provided herein or in the Plan. Shareholder also agrees that the Shares which Shareholder acquires pursuant to this Agreement will not be sold or otherwise disposed of in any manner which would constitute a violation of any applicable securities laws, whether federal or state.
Section 4.    Book Entry Account. At the discretion of the Company, certificates for the Shares may not be issued. In lieu of certificates, the Company may establish a book entry account for the Shares, until vested, in the name of the Shareholder with the Company’s transfer agent for its Common Stock.
Section 5.    Income Taxes.
(a)    Shareholder acknowledges that, if Shareholder is a Pennsylvania resident, Shareholder is responsible for any and all applicable income and other taxes, as well as any social insurance contributions and other deductions or withholdings required by applicable law, from this Award, including federal, FICA, state, and local taxes applicable to Shareholder (such taxes, the “Tax-Related Items”). Shareholder further acknowledges that the Company (a) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting, or delivery of Shares under the Award, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to the Award, and the receipt of any dividends, and (b) does not commit to and is under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate Shareholder’s liability for Tax-Related Items.
(b)    If Shareholder is not a Pennsylvania resident, Shareholder acknowledges that any issuance of Shares to Shareholder pursuant to this Award shall be subject to any applicable tax withholding requirements. The Company shall automatically, not later than the date as of which the transfer of Shares pursuant to this Award becomes a taxable event for federal income tax or other applicable withholding tax purposes, cause the required minimum federal, state, local, non-U.S., or other taxes required by law to be withheld on account of such





taxable event to be satisfied by withholding from Shares to be issued to Shareholder a number of Shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value that would satisfy such minimum withholding obligation.
(c)    Shareholder agrees further to notify the Company promptly if Shareholder files an election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), with respect to any Shares.
Section 6.    No Right to Continued Service. Neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall be deemed to give Shareholder any right to continued service as a Director of the Company, nor shall the Plan or the Agreement be deemed to limit in any way the Company’s right to terminate the Shareholder’s service as a Director at any time.
Section 7.    Further Assistance. Shareholder will provide assistance reasonably requested by the Company in connection with actions taken by Shareholder while serving as a Director of the Company, including but not limited to assistance in connection with any lawsuits or other claims against the Company arising from events during the period in which Shareholder served as a Director of the Company.
Section 8.    Binding Effect; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and Shareholder and their respective heirs, representatives, successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the Company and the Shareholder and their respective heirs, representatives, successors and permitted assigns. The parties agree that this Agreement shall survive the issuance of the Shares.
Section 9.    Agreement to Abide by Plan; Conflict between Plan and Agreement. The Plan is hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement and is made a part hereof as though fully set forth in this Agreement. Shareholder, by execution of this Agreement, represents that he or she is familiar with the terms and provisions of the Plan and agrees to abide by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan. Shareholder accepts as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Committee upon any question arising under the Plan or this Agreement (including, without limitation, the date that Shareholder’s service as a Director of the Company terminates). In the event of any conflict between the Plan and this Agreement, the Plan shall control and this Agreement shall be deemed to be modified accordingly, except to the extent that the Plan gives the Committee the express authority to vary the terms of the Plan by means of this Agreement, in which case this Agreement shall govern.
Section 10.    Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement and the Plan, which Shareholder has reviewed and accepted in connection with the grant of the Shares reflected by this Agreement, constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersede any prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or between the parties, written or oral, to the extent they related in any way to the subject matter of this Agreement.
Section 11.    Choice of Law. To the extent not superseded by federal law, the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (without regard to the conflicts laws thereof) shall control in all matters relating to this Agreement and any action relating to this Agreement must be brought in State or Federal Courts located in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Section 12.    Notice. All notices, requests, demands, claims, and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing. Any notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication under this Agreement shall be deemed duly given if (and then two business days after) it is sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, and





addressed to the intended recipient at the following address: If to the Company, L. B. Foster Company, 415 Holiday Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15220, Attn: Secretary; and if to the Shareholder, to his or her address as it appears on the Company’s records. Either party to this Agreement may send any notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication under this Agreement to the intended recipient at such address using any other means (including personal delivery, expedited courier, messenger service, telecopy, ordinary mail, or electronic mail), but no such notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication shall be deemed to have been duly given unless and until it actually is received by the intended recipient. Either party to this Agreement may change the address to which notices, requests, demands, claims, and other communications hereunder are to be delivered by giving the other party notice in the manner set forth in this section.
Section 13.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
Section 14.    Amendments. This Agreement may be amended or modified at any time by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto, or as otherwise provided under the Plan. Notwithstanding, the Company may, in its sole discretion and without the Shareholder’s consent, modify or amend the terms of this Agreement, impose conditions on the timing and effectiveness of the issuance of the Shares, or take any other action it deems necessary or advisable, to cause this Award to be excepted from Section 409A of the Code (or to comply therewith to the extent the Company determines it is not excepted).
Section 15.    Acknowledgments.
(a)    By accepting the Shares, the Shareholder acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement, as in effect and/or amended from time to time.
(b)    The Plan and related documents may be delivered to Shareholder electronically. Such means of delivery may include but do not necessarily include the delivery of a link to a Company intranet site or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the documents via e-mail or CD-ROM or such other delivery determined at the Committee’s discretion. Both Internet Email and the World Wide Web are required in order to access documents electronically.
(c)    This Award is intended to be excepted from coverage under Section 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder and shall be interpreted and construed accordingly. Notwithstanding, Shareholder recognizes and acknowledges that Section 409A of the Code may impose upon the Shareholder certain taxes or interest charges for which the Shareholder is and shall remain solely responsible.
(d)    Shareholder acknowledges that, by receipt of this Award, Shareholder has read this Section 15 and consents to the electronic delivery of the Plan and related documents, as described in this Section 15. Shareholder acknowledges that Shareholder may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost if Shareholder contacts the Company’s General Counsel by telephone at (412) 928-7829 or by mail to L.B. Foster Company, 415 Holiday Drive, Suite 100, Pittsburgh, PA 15220 ATTN: General Counsel.

Section 16. Deferral Election. To the extent that a Shareholder has made a valid deferral election pursuant to the terms of the Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee





Directors (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”) and the Plan, the effect of such election shall be that in lieu of the Award described herein the Shareholder shall receive a Restricted Stock Unit Award as defined and subject to the provision of Section 7 of the Plan, which upon vesting shall be treated as Deferred Stock Units as defined and subject to the provisions of the Deferred Compensation Plan.
