263002286 v1 SEPARATION LETTER AGREEMENT 11/11/2022 XXXX XXXXXX Via DocuSign Dear Xxxx, This letter sets forth the substance of the separation agreement (the “Agreement”) that DB Management Co., (the “Company”) and its affiliated entities including, but not limited to, Dutch Bros Inc., Dutch Mafia, LLC, Dutch Bros., LLC, Xxxxxxx Bros. LLC, and DB Franchising USA, LLC (collectively with the Company, the “Company Group”) is offering to you to aid in your employment transition. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined within this Agreement shall be given the same definition as under the Dutch Bros Inc. Amended and Restated Severance and Change in Control Plan (the “Severance Plan”). 1. SEPARATION. Your last day of work with the Company and your employment termination date will be January 4, 2023 (the “Separation Date”). Between the date of the delivery of this letter and the Separation Date you will continue to be employed by the Company Group and will continue to serve at the direction and under the supervision of our CEO. 2. ACCRUED SALARY AND PAID TIME OFF. On the Separation Date, the Company will pay you all accrued salary earned through the Separation Date, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings. You are entitled to this payment by law. Since the Company has a nonaccrual vacation policy for executives, you do not have any accrued vacation or other paid time off and thus will not be paid out for any accrued vacation or other paid time off. 3. SEVERANCE BENEFITS. Provided that you timely sign this Agreement, allow it to become effective, and comply with your obligations under it, the Company will pay you severance in accordance with the Severance Plan, and specifically, in accordance with Section 3 of the Participation Agreement between you and Dutch Bros Inc., dated November 29, 2021 (the “Participation Agreement”). Under the Severance Plan and Participation Agreement, you will receive the following: a. Twelve (12) months of your base salary, equal to $500,000, subject to standard payroll deductions and withholdings, made in installments pursuant to the Company Group’s regular payroll practices over the length of the Severance Period; and b. The COBRA benefits described in Section 2(d) of your Participation Agreement. DocuSign Envelope ID: 4758A6EA-4F84-4E9A-BB5B-550859DDE266

263002286 v1 Page 2 The salary and COBRA benefits described above are collectively referred to herein as the “Severance Benefits.” 4. EQUITY PLAN. Under the terms of your RSU Award Agreement and the Dutch Bros Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (collectively, the “Equity Plan”), vesting of your equity award will cease as of the Separation Date. Your right to any vested equity, and all other rights and obligations with respect thereto will be as set forth in the Equity Plan. 5. OTHER COMPENSATION OR BENEFITS. You acknowledge that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, you have not earned and will not receive from the Company any additional compensation (including bonus, incentive compensation, or additional equity), severance, or benefits before or after the Separation Date, with the exception of your standard salary and benefits due between now and the Separation Date and any vested right you may have under the express terms of a written ERISA-qualified benefit plan (e.g., 401(k) account) or the Equity Plan. 6. EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENTS. You agree that, within thirty (30) days after the Separation Date, you will submit your final documented expense reimbursement statement reflecting all business expenses you incurred through the Separation Date, if any, for which you seek reimbursement. The Company will reimburse you for these expenses pursuant to its regular business practice. 7. RELEASE OF CLAIMS. (a) General Release of Claims. Under the Severance Plan and Participation Agreement, receipt of the Severance Benefits is conditioned on your execution of a required Release. Accordingly, you hereby generally and completely release the Company Group, and its affiliated, related, parent and subsidiary entities, and its and their current and former directors, officers, employees, shareholders, partners, agents, attorneys, predecessors, successors, insurers, affiliates, and assigns from any and all claims, liabilities, demands, causes of action, and obligations, both known and unknown, arising from or in any way related to events, acts, conduct, or omissions occurring at any time prior to and including the date you sign this Agreement. (b) Scope of Release. This general release includes, but is not limited to: (i) all claims arising from or in any way related to your employment with the Company or the termination of that employment; (ii) all claims related to your compensation or benefits from the Company, including salary, bonuses, commissions, vacation pay, expense reimbursements, severance pay, fringe benefits, stock, stock options, or any other ownership, equity, or profits interests in the Company; (iii) all claims for breach of contract, wrongful termination, and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; (iv) all tort claims, including claims for fraud, defamation, emotional distress, and discharge in violation of public policy; and (v) all federal, state, and local statutory claims, including claims for discrimination, harassment, retaliation, attorneys’ fees, or other claims arising under the federal Civil Rights Act of 1964 (as amended), the federal Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the California Labor Code (as amended), the California Family Rights Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”) and the California Fair DocuSign Envelope ID: 4758A6EA-4F84-4E9A-BB5B-550859DDE266

263002286 v1 Page 3 Employment and Housing Act (as amended). You acknowledge that you have been advised, as required by California Government Code Section 12964.5(b)(4), that you have the right to consult an attorney regarding this Agreement and that you were given a reasonable time period of not less than five business days in which to do so. You further acknowledge and agree that, in the event you sign this Agreement prior to the end of the reasonable time period provided by the Company, your decision to accept such shortening of time is knowing and voluntary and is not induced by the Company through fraud, misrepresentation, or a threat to withdraw or alter the offer prior to the expiration of the reasonable time period, or by providing different terms to employees who sign such an agreement prior to the expiration of the time period. (c) ADEA Release. You acknowledge that you are knowingly and voluntarily waiving and releasing any rights you have under the ADEA, and that the consideration given for the waiver and releases you have given in this Agreement is in addition to anything of value to which you were already entitled. You further acknowledge that you have been advised, as required by the ADEA, that: (i) your waiver and release does not apply to any rights or claims arising after the date you sign this Agreement; (ii) you should consult with an attorney prior to signing this Agreement (although you may choose voluntarily not to do so); (iii) you have twenty-one (21) days to consider this Agreement (although you may choose voluntarily to sign it sooner); (iv) you have seven (7) days following the date you sign this Agreement to revoke this Agreement (in a written revocation sent to the Company); and (v) this Agreement will not be effective until the date upon which the revocation period has expired, which will be the eighth day after you sign this Agreement provided that you do not revoke it (the “Effective Date”). (d) Section 1542 Waiver. In giving the release herein, which includes claims which may be unknown to you at present, you acknowledge that you have read and understand Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which reads as follows: “A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.” You hereby expressly waive and relinquish all rights and benefits under that section and any law of any other jurisdiction of similar effect with respect to your release of claims herein, including but not limited to your release of unknown claims. (e) Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you are not releasing the Company hereby from: (i) any obligation to indemnify you pursuant to the Articles and Bylaws of the Company, any valid fully executed indemnification agreement with the Company, applicable law, or applicable directors and officers liability insurance; (ii) any claims that cannot be waived by law; or (iii) any claims for breach of this Agreement. (f) Protected Rights. You understand that nothing in this Agreement limits your ability to file a charge or complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Department of Labor, the National Labor Relations Board, the Occupational Safety and Health DocuSign Envelope ID: 4758A6EA-4F84-4E9A-BB5B-550859DDE266

263002286 v1 Page 4 Administration, the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing, the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other federal, state or local governmental agency or commission (“Government Agencies”). You further understand this Agreement does not limit your ability to communicate with any Government Agencies or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any Government Agency, including providing documents or other information, without notice to the Company. While this Agreement does not limit your right to receive an award for information provided to the Securities and Exchange Commission, you understand and agree that, to maximum extent permitted by law, you are otherwise waiving any and all rights you may have to individual relief based on any claims that you have released and any rights you have waived by signing this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement prevents you from discussing or disclosing information about unlawful acts in the workplace, such as harassment or discrimination or any other conduct that you have reason to believe is unlawful. (g) Final Release. Within ten (10) business days of the Separation Date, you will sign a final release in substantially the same form as set forth above releasing the Company Group from any claims or liabilities that arise between the effective date of this Agreement and your Separation Date. (h) Maintain Good Standing. As an express condition of your receipt of the Severance Benefits, you must not engage in any conduct that qualifies as “Cause” for termination under the Severance Plan. In the event that you are terminated for Cause prior to the Separation Date, you will forfeit all rights to the Severance Benefits. 8. RETURN OF COMPANY PROPERTY. You agree that, by the Separation Date, or earlier if requested by the Company, you will return to the Company all Company documents (and all copies thereof) and other Company property in your possession or control, including, but not limited to, Company files, notes, drawings, records, plans, forecasts, reports, studies, analyses, proposals, agreements, drafts, financial and operational information, research and development information, sales and marketing information, customer lists, prospect information, pipeline reports, sales reports, personnel information, specifications, code, software, databases, computer- recorded information, tangible property and equipment (including, but not limited to, computing and electronic devices, mobile telephones, servers), credit cards, entry cards, identification badges and keys; and any materials of any kind which contain or embody any proprietary or confidential information of the Company (and all reproductions or embodiments thereof in whole or in part). You agree that you will make a diligent search to locate any such documents, property and information by the close of business on the Separation Date or as soon as possible thereafter. If you have used any personally owned computer or other electronic device, server, or e-mail system to receive, store, review, prepare or transmit any Company confidential or proprietary data, materials or information, within five (5) days after the Separation Date, you shall provide the Company with a computer-useable copy of such information and then permanently delete and expunge such Company confidential or proprietary information from those systems; and you agree to provide the Company access to your system as requested to verify that the necessary copying and/or deletion is completed. Your timely compliance with this paragraph is a condition to your receipt of the Severance Benefits provided under this Agreement. DocuSign Envelope ID: 4758A6EA-4F84-4E9A-BB5B-550859DDE266

CONFIDENTIALITY. The provisions of this Agreement will be held in strictest confidence by you and will not be publicized or disclosed by you in any manner whatsoever; provided, however, that: (a) you may disclose this Agreement in confidence to your immediate family and to your attorneys, accountants, tax preparers and financial advisors; (b) you may disclose this Agreement insofar as such disclosure may be necessary to enforce its terms or as otherwise required by law; and (c) you may make such statements and disclosures as set forth in the section of this Agreement entitled “Protected Rights.” In particular, and without limitation, you agree not to disclose the terms of this Agreement to any current or former Company employee or independent contractor. 11. NON-DISPARAGEMENT. You agree not to disparage the Company Group, and the Company Group’s officers, directors, employees, shareholders and agents, in any manner likely to be harmful to them or their business, business reputations or personal reputations. Likewise, the Company Group agrees to direct its officers and directors not to disparage you in any manner likely to be harmful to you or your personal or business reputations or relationships. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement or any other agreement between the parties prohibits you or the Company Group from responding accurately and fully to any request for information or disclosure of documents if required by law, court order, subpoena or other legal process, in any criminal, civil, or regulatory proceeding or investigation, or in any legal dispute between the parties. In addition, nothing in this provision or this Agreement is intended to prohibit or restrain the parties in any manner from making disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal or state law or regulation. You will direct any future requests for an employment reference or verification of your employment with the Company to the Company’s most senior Human Resources official and, in response to any such request, the Company’s most senior Human Resources official will disclose only your dates of employment and last position held. 12. NO VOLUNTARY ADVERSE ACTION. You agree that you will not voluntarily (except in response to legal compulsion or as permitted under the section of this Agreement entitled “Protected Rights”) assist any person in bringing or pursuing any proposed or pending litigation, arbitration, administrative claim or other formal proceeding against the Company, its parent or subsidiary entities, affiliates, officers, directors, employees or agents. 13. COOPERATION.

263002286 v1 Page 6 connection with any such cooperation (excluding foregone wages) and will make reasonable efforts to accommodate your scheduling needs. 14. NO ADMISSIONS. You understand and agree that the promises and payments in consideration of this Agreement shall not be construed to be an admission of any liability or obligation by the Company Group to you or to any other person, and that the Company Group makes no such admission. 15. REPRESENTATIONS. You hereby represent that you have: been paid all compensation owed and for all hours worked; received all leave and leave benefits and protections for which you are eligible pursuant to the Family and Medical Leave Act, the California Family Rights Act, or otherwise; and not suffered any on-the-job injury for which you have not already filed a workers’ compensation claim. 16. DISPUTE RESOLUTION. You and the Company agree that any and all disputes, claims, or controversies of any nature whatsoever arising from, or relating to, this Agreement or its interpretation, enforcement, breach, performance or execution, your employment or the termination of such employment (including, but not limited to, any statutory claims) (collectively, “Claims”, each a “Claim”), shall be resolved, pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1-16, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, by final, binding and confidential arbitration in Grants Pass, Oregon (or another mutually acceptable location) conducted before a single neutral arbitrator by JAMS, Inc. (“JAMS”) or its successor, under the then applicable JAMS Arbitration Rules and Procedures for Employment Disputes (available at xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxx.xxx/xxxxx- employment-arbitration/). By agreeing to this arbitration procedure, both you and the Company waive the right to have any Claim resolved through a trial by jury or judge or an administrative proceeding. You will have the right to be represented by legal counsel at any arbitration proceeding, at your own expense. This paragraph shall not apply to any action or claim that cannot be subject to mandatory arbitration as a matter of law, including, without limitation, claims brought pursuant to the California Private Attorneys General Act of 2004, as amended, to the extent such claims are not permitted by applicable law to be submitted to mandatory arbitration and the applicable law(s) are not preempted by the Federal Arbitration Act or otherwise invalid (collectively, the “Excluded Claims”). In the event you intend to bring multiple claims, including one of the Excluded Claims listed above, the Excluded Claims may be publicly filed with a court, while any other claims will remain subject to mandatory arbitration. The arbitrator shall have sole authority for determining if a Claim is subject to arbitration, and any other procedural questions related to the dispute and bearing on the final disposition. In addition, the arbitrator shall: (a) have the authority to compel adequate discovery for the resolution of the dispute and to award such relief as would otherwise be available under applicable law in a court proceeding; and (b) issue a written statement signed by the arbitrator regarding the disposition of each claim and the relief, if any, awarded as to each claim, the reasons for the award, and the arbitrator’s essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. The Company shall pay all JAMS arbitration fees. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent you or the Company from obtaining injunctive relief in court to prevent irreparable harm pending the conclusion of any arbitration. Any awards or orders in such arbitrations may be entered and enforced as judgments in the federal and state courts of any competent jurisdiction.
