d.Accelerated Vesting and Other Adjustments to Retained Options.
i.The parties acknowledge and agree that as of the date hereof, only 2,917 of the Options have vested in accordance with the terms of the 2021 Option Agreement (the “Vested Options”).
ii.Notwithstanding the vesting, forfeiture or other provisions of the Plan or the Option Agreement, (a) up to 40% of the 5-Year Option (as defined in the 2021 Option Agreement) (i.e., up to 40,000 ordinary shares of the Parent covered by the 5-Year Option) shall remain eligible to become vested based solely on actual performance for fiscal year 2023, as calculated in accordance with the terms of the 2021 Option Agreement (the “Retained 5-Year Option”); and (b) up to 40% of the Options granted under the 2022 Option Agreement (i.e., up to 200,000 ordinary shares of the Parent covered by such Options) shall remain eligible to become vested based solely on actual performance for fiscal year 2023, as calculated in accordance with the terms of the 2022 Option Agreement (the “Retained 2022 Option”, and together with the Retained 5-Year Option, the “Retained Options”); provided, however, that no portion of the Retained Options shall remain eligible for vesting or any of the adjustments contemplated by the Option Agreements for performance in any performance years after fiscal 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the portion of the Retained Options that becomes vested, if any, shall be considered final following the verification by the Committee (as defined in the Option Agreements) of the AOP (as defined in the Option Agreements) for fiscal year 2023, and if such AOP is less than the maximum AOP target, the amount vested shall not be eligible to any upward adjustments for future performance and the unvested portion of the Retained Options shall immediately be deemed forfeited by the Executive and cancelled by the Company. All Options other than the Retained Options and Vested Options shall be immediately forfeited in accordance with their terms effective as of the Separation Date.
iii.In addition, and notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or the Option Agreement, (a) the Parent shall and hereby does permit the Vested Options and any vested Retained Options to be exercised at any time during the 36-month period following the Separation Date (but not thereafter) by the Executive or his guardian or legal representative (or by his estate or the person who acquires the Retained Options by will or the laws of descent and distribution or otherwise by reason of the Executive’s death if he dies during such period); and (b) the Executive shall have no dividend equivalent rights of any kind with respect to the Vested Options or the Retained Options.

than the Executive’s rights in (i) the Vested Options and Retained Options in accordance with the terms of the Plan, the Option Agreements and this Agreement, as applicable; and (ii) the ordinary shares of Parent that are held directly or indirectly by Executive as of the date hereof. If Parent declares a dividend on its ordinary shares, and Executive holds such shares on the applicable record date, Parent shall pay or cause to be paid such dividend to Executive in a manner reasonably consistent with the other holders of ordinary shares.
4.Return of Property. By the Effective Date, the Employee must return all property of the Parent or any of its Affiliates, including identification cards or badges, access codes or devices, keys, laptops, computers, telephones, mobile phones, hand-held electronic devices, credit cards, electronically stored documents or files, physical files, and any other property of the Parent or its Affiliates in the Executive’s possession. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that Executive no longer has access to and does not claim ownership of any of the cloud storage or social media accounts of the Parent or its Affiliates.
5.Release of Claims. In consideration of the performance by the Parent and the Company of their obligations under the Employment Agreement and this Agreement, the Executive hereby releases and forever discharges as of the date hereof the Parent, the Company and their respective Affiliates and all present, former and future managers, directors, officers, employees, successors and assigns of the Parent, Company and their respective affiliates and direct or indirect owners (collectively, the “Released Parties”) to the extent provided in this Section 5 (this “General Release”). The Released Parties are intended to be third-party beneficiaries of this General Release, and this General Release may be enforced by each of them in accordance with the terms hereof in respect of the rights granted to such Released Parties hereunder.
a.Executive understands that any payments or benefits paid or granted to Executive under Section 3 of this Agreement (other than the Accrued Obligations) represent, in part, consideration for signing this General Release and are not salary, wages or benefits to which Executive was already entitled. Executive understands and agree that Executive will not receive certain of the payments and benefits specified in Section 6 of the Agreement (other than the Accrued Obligations) unless Executive executes this General Release and do not revoke this General Release within the time period permitted hereafter.

c.Executive represents that Executive has made no assignment or transfer of any right, claim, demand, cause of action, or other matter covered by Section 5(b) above.
d.Executive agrees that this General Release does not waive or release any rights or claims that Executive may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 which arise after the date Executive executes this General Release.

e.Executive hereby waives all rights to sue or obtain equitable, remedial or punitive relief from any or all Released Parties of any kind whatsoever in respect of any Claim, including, without limitation, reinstatement, back pay, front pay, and any form of injunctive relief. Notwithstanding the above, Executive further acknowledges that Executive is not waiving and is not being required to waive any right that cannot be waived under law, including the right to file an administrative charge or participate in an administrative investigation or proceeding, including with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”); provided, however, that Executive disclaims and waives any right to share or participate in any monetary award resulting from the prosecution of such EEOC charge or investigation or proceeding. Additionally, Executive is not waiving (i) any right to the Accrued Obligations or any severance benefits to which Executive is entitled under the Agreement or (ii) any claim relating to any right of indemnification under the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability or other insurance coverage, the Company’s organizational documents, or otherwise.

Executive expressly consents that this General Release shall be given full force and effect according to each and all of its express terms and provisions, including those relating to unknown and unsuspected Claims (notwithstanding any state or local statute that expressly limits the effectiveness of a general release of unknown, unsuspected and unanticipated Claims), if any, as well as those relating to any other Claims hereinabove mentioned or implied. Executive acknowledges and agrees that this waiver is an essential and material term of this General Release and that without such waiver the Company would not have agreed to the terms of the Agreement. Executive further agrees that in the event Executive should bring a Claim seeking damages against the Company, or in the event Executive should seek to recover against the Company in any Claim brought by a governmental agency on Executive’s behalf, this General Release shall serve as a complete defense to such Claims to the maximum extent permitted by law. Executive further agrees that Executive is not aware of any pending claim of the type described in Section 2 above as of the execution of this General Release.
g.Executive agrees that neither this General Release, nor the furnishing of the consideration for this General Release, shall be deemed or construed at any time to be an admission by the Company, any Released Party or Executive of any improper or unlawful conduct.

Executive acknowledges that Executive may hereafter discover claims or facts in addition to or different than those which Executive now knows or believes to exist with respect to the subject matter of the release set forth in Section 5(b) above and which, if known or suspected at the time of entering into this General Release, may have materially affected this General Release and Executive’s decision to enter into it.
j.Notwithstanding anything in this General Release to the contrary, this General Release shall not relinquish, diminish, or in any way affect any rights or claims arising out of any breach by the Company or by any Released Party of the Agreement after the date hereof.
k.Whenever possible, each provision of this General Release shall be interpreted in, such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this General Release is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this General Release shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

b.Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed, construed, interpreted and enforced in accordance with the substantive laws of Delaware.
c.Validity. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.
d.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement. The signatures to this Agreement need not all be on a single copy of this Agreement, and may be electronic signatures (e.g., DocuSign) or copies on portable document format (.pdf) rather than originals, and in each case shall be fully effective as though all signatures were originals on the same copy.
e.Amendments; Waivers. This Agreement may not be modified, amended, or terminated except by an instrument in writing, signed by the Executive and duly appointed officer of the Company. By an instrument in writing similarly executed, the Executive or the Company or Parent may waive compliance by the other party or parties with any provision of this Agreement that such other party was or is obligated to comply with or perform; provided, however, that such waiver shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any other or subsequent failure. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising any right, remedy or power hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise of any other right, remedy or power provided herein or by law or in equity.
f.No Inconsistent Actions.

Furthermore, it is the intent of the parties hereto to act in a fair and reasonable manner with respect to the interpretation and application of the provisions of this Agreement.
g.Arbitration. Except as expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement, any dispute arising out of, relating to, or having any connection with, this Agreement, including any question regarding its existence, validity, interpretation, performance, breach or termination, and any tort or other extra-contractual or statutory claims arising out of or relating to its negotiation, execution or performance, shall be exclusively and finally settled by arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the
International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC Rules”) by one or more arbitrators appointed in accordance with the ICC Rules; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 6(g) shall prohibit: (i) a party from instituting litigation to enforce any final award in any court of competent jurisdiction; or (ii) the Company from seeking a restraining order or injunction in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent any continuation of any violation of the Continuing Obligations and the Executive hereby consents that such restraining order or injunction may be granted without the necessity of the Company’s posting any bond. The seat of the arbitration shall be in St. Louis, Missouri. The language of the arbitration shall be English. The parties undertake to carry out any award of the tribunal without delay, and waive their right to refer any question of law and any right of appeal on the law or merits to a court of law or other judicial authority, insofar as such waiver may be validly made. The parties agree that an arbitral tribunal appointed under this Agreement may exercise jurisdiction with respect to this Agreement and any amendments or exhibits or schedules hereto (except as otherwise expressly provided therein), and that any disputes involving more than one of such agreements, exhibits or schedules shall proceed as a consolidated arbitration in accordance with Article 10 of the ICC Rules. The arbitrator selected pursuant to this Section 6(g) shall award to the prevailing party, if any, the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with the arbitration and, if the arbitrator determines a party to be the prevailing party under circumstances where the prevailing party won on some but not all of the claims and counterclaims, the arbitrator may award the prevailing party an appropriate percentage of the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with the arbitration and the enforcement of its rights under this Agreement.

j.Limited Revocation Right; Effect of Revocation. After signing this Agreement, the Executive shall have a period of seven days to reconsider and revoke his acceptance of this Agreement in his discretion (the “Revocation Period”). If the Executive chooses to revoke his acceptance of this Agreement, he must do so by providing written notice to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and General Counsel on or before the seventh day after signing this Agreement, in which case this Agreement shall not become effective or enforceable and the Executive shall not receive the separation benefits set forth in Sections 3(c) and 3(d) of this Agreement.
