The definition of ARL shall be amended to exclude any liabilities that relate to the following defined benefit pension plans: (a) in Japan: RAP – Retirement Allowance Plan for Employees, DBCPP – Defined Benefit
Corporate Pension Plan for Employees, and DRAP – Directors Retirement Allowance Plan; (b) in The Netherlands: XXXXXXXXX XXXX NETHERLANDS B.V. – Contract 30008626 with Nationale-Nederlanden, XXXXXXXXX XXXX EUROPEAN HOLDING COMPANY – Contract

In addition, the definition of ARL shall be amended to clarify that the liabilities that relate to the Deferred Compensation Plan with Club Car, Inc. will be included.
Accordingly, the definition of ARL is amended to add the following sentence immediately prior to the end thereof:
1
“For the avoidance of doubt, (A) such aggregate gross Liabilities shall not include any Liabilities attributable to a Designated Pension Plan and (B) the Deferred Compensation Plan with Club Car, Inc. (and any

Section 3.02 is amended to provide that, in lieu of Xxxxxxx establishing or maintaining a tax-qualified defined contribution 401(k) plan for the benefit of SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees, Xxxxxxxxx-Xxxx
has caused one of SpinCo’s U.S. subsidiaries, to establish a tax-qualified defined contribution 401(k) plan for the benefit of the SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees that will be assumed by the Clover Group as a SpinCo Benefit Plan.
Accordingly, Sections 3.02(b) and (c) are hereby amended to read, in their entirety, as follows:
“(b) SpinCo Savings Plan. Effective January 1, 2020, Moon has taken all actions necessary and appropriate to cause Xxxxxxxxx-Xxxx Industrial U.S., Inc., a wholly owned U.S. Subsidiary of SpinCo, to establish
and maintain for the benefit of SpinCo Employees, Former SpinCo Employees, and Plan Payees the Xxxxxxxxx-Xxxx Industrial U.S., Inc. Employee Savings Plan (such plan and its related trust(s), the “SpinCo Savings Plan”), a defined contribution

Xxxxxxxxx-Xxxx Company Employee Savings Plan for Bargained Employees (collectively, the “Moon Savings Plans”) to spin off to the SpinCo Savings Plan the portions of the Moon Savings Plans which are attributable to the SpinCo Employees and
Former SpinCo Employees, as well as to any respective Plan Payees, such spin-off included (without limitation) any and all of such individual’s accounts (but excluding zero balance accounts), Liabilities, related Assets, unvested amounts,
un-locatable participant accounts, and outstanding loan balances. Effective prior to, or as of, the Distribution Date, the assets of the SpinCo Savings Plan shall be transferred from the Xxxxxxxxx-Xxxx Employee Savings Plan Master Trust holding
assets of the defined contribution plans sponsored by members of the Moon Group into a separate trust solely for the benefit of participants, beneficiaries and Plan Payees of the SpinCo Savings Plan.
Effective as of the Effective Time, Clover (acting directly or through members of the Clover Group or the SpinCo Group) hereby agrees to assume and adopt the SpinCo Savings Plan for the benefit of all SpinCo Employees,
Former SpinCo Employees and Plan Payees as a SpinCo Benefit Plan.”
Accordingly, the definition of “Clover Savings Plan” in Article I shall be removed; and the definition of “Moon Savings Plan” in Article I shall be amended (and renamed as “Moon Savings Plans”) and the following

subject to the German works council, Xxxxxxxxx-Xxxx will pass through an accrual for the benefit of SpinCo.
3
Accordingly, the first sentence of Section 3.07 is replaced in its entirety and redesignated as Sections 3.07(a), 3.07(b) and 3.07(c) as follows:
“(a) Prior Period Bonuses. Immediately prior to the Distribution Time, Moon shall have paid all earned but unpaid bonuses, commissions, and other cash-based incentive compensation due to any SpinCo Employee or
Former SpinCo Employee under any Employee Agreement, SpinCo Benefit Plan, or Moon Benefit Plan in respect of periods prior to the Closing Plan Year.
(b) Stub Period and Retention Bonuses.
(i) No later than 45 days after the Distribution Date, Moon shall (A) provide to Clover a report (the “Stub Period and Retention Bonus Report”) of the amount in the local currency applicable to each SpinCo
Employee, to be paid (1) to each bonus-eligible SpinCo Employee calculated based on actual performance through the Distribution Date or assuming the target level of performance, in each case as determined by Moon in its sole discretion, pursuant to
any bonus, commission or cash-based incentive program of the Moon Group in which such SpinCo Employee is a participant immediately prior to the Distribution Date, prorated to correspond with the SpinCo Employee’s applicable period of employment
with Moon during the Closing Plan Year (the “Stub Period Bonus”), and (2) to each SpinCo Employee as the pre-Closing portion of the retention bonus payment in connection with the successful completion of the Merger (the “Retention Bonus”)
under the terms of such SpinCo Employee’s retention bonus letter agreement with Moon, as described in item 1 of Section 7.2(a)(xi)(A) of the SpinCo Disclosure Letter to the Merger Agreement and (B) remit to Clover payment of the aggregate amount of
the Stub Period Bonuses and Retention Bonuses to SpinCo Employees who will receive payment of their Stub Period Bonuses and Retention Bonuses, as applicable, from Clover and its Subsidiaries (for the sake of clarity, solely with respect to payrolls
that are not administered by Moon under the Transition Services Agreement (“Clover Payrolls”)), as described in Section 3.07(b)(ii) below.
4
(ii) No later than 60 days after the Distribution Date (and, with respect to the Stub Period Bonuses in the case of jurisdictions listed on Exhibit A, no later than 75
days after the Distribution Date), Moon (with respect to payrolls that are administered, in whole or in part, by Moon under the Transition Services Agreement (“Moon Payrolls”)) or Clover (with respect to Clover Payrolls) shall cause to be
paid to each SpinCo Employee, the Stub Period Bonus and the Retention Bonus (if any), in each case, as identified on the Stub Period and Retention Bonus Report; provided that all such Stub Period Bonuses and Retention Bonuses shall be paid in one
or more special off-cycle payrolls specifically dedicated to such Stub Period Bonus and Retention Bonus payments. With respect to the Moon Payrolls, Moon shall be responsible for the costs of such off-cycle payrolls and shall not include any such

amount, the Retention Bonus payment amount, the employer portions of FICA and any other similar employment taxes that are payable in respect of the Stub Period Bonus and the Retention Bonus and the employer matching contributions or other defined
contribution plan non-elective contributions that are payable in respect of the Stub Period Bonus (such employment taxes and employer contribution amounts, the “Additional Amounts”). No employer matching or other defined contribution plan
non-elective contributions are due on the Retention Bonus payment amounts, and Moon and Clover, as applicable, shall choose appropriate wage codes for payment of such Retention Bonuses to ensure that the Retention Bonus payment amounts are not
eligible compensation for defined contribution plan purposes.
(iv) No later than two Business Days after the date that Clover provides to Moon any report described in Section 3.07(b)(iii) above, Moon shall remit to Clover payment of the aggregate Additional Amounts
related to the Stub Period Bonuses and Retention Bonuses paid by Clover and its Subsidiaries with respect to the Clover Payrolls. As soon as practicable following the payment of the Stub Period Bonuses and Retention Bonuses, Clover shall provide
Moon with an invoice for the Off-Cycle Payroll Costs and Moon shall reimburse Clover such amounts within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.

dollars, each local currency shall be converted to U.S. dollars calculated using the Bloomberg FX Fixing (BFIX) rate for the applicable local currency as published on the Bloomberg Terminal two Business Days prior to the date on which such amount
is remitted or reimbursed to Clover.

to the German works council (each monthly, quarterly or annual sales incentive plan and such German local incentive plan, a “Designated Sales Incentive Plan”), in each case in respect of a specified monthly, quarterly or annual incentive
period that includes the elapsed time period between January 1, 2020 and the Distribution Date, Moon shall pass through an accrual for the benefit of SpinCo for the sales incentive amounts payable to such SpinCo Employees under the Designated Sales
Incentive Plans, which accrual is through the Distribution Date and is determined based on target performance for the applicable incentive period, and Clover and its Subsidiaries shall pay the sales incentive payments actually earned by such SpinCo
Employees as and when due under the terms of such Designated Sales Incentive Plans (including terms applicable in connection with a termination of employment).”
Additionally, the second sentence of Section 3.07 is redesignated as Section 3.07(d).

“Each Moon Stock Option that is vested by its terms immediately prior to the Distribution Time and is held by a SpinCo Employee who is subject to the Wujiang China SAFE filing (the “China SAFE Filing”) (each, a
“Vested Moon China Stock Option”) shall be converted as of the Effective Time into a Clover Stock Option as provided under Section 4.02(b)(ii), provided that for such purpose each reference therein to an “Unvested Moon Stock Option” shall be
deemed to refer to a “Vested Moon China Stock Option”. Clover agrees that the Clover Group shall be solely and exclusively responsible (and shall indemnify each Moon Entity) for all obligations, Liabilities, costs and expenses to the Clover Group
resulting from the transactions contemplated under this Section 4.02(a)(ii). In addition, neither Party shall (and shall not permit any of its Affiliates, including with respect to Moon, the Moon Group, and with respect to Clover, the Clover Group

and the settlement of Moon PSUs held by SpinCo Employees.
Accordingly, Section 4.09 of the EMA is redesignated as Section 4.09(a) and new Sections 4.09(b) and 4.09(c) are added to read as follows:
“(b) Following the end of each calendar quarter in which has occurred any exercise by a SpinCo Employee of an Adjusted Vested Moon Stock Option or settlement of a Moon PSU held by a SpinCo Employee, in each case that
gives rise to FICA taxes, Clover will provide a report to Moon setting forth for each SpinCo Employee, (A) the aggregate wages for FICA purposes attributable to such exercise or settlement and (B) the employer portion of FICA taxes related thereto,
which shall be determined based on such SpinCo Employee’s FICA wages earned from the first day of such calendar year through the date of such exercise or settlement (without regard to the source of such FICA wages). Clover shall also provide Moon
with documentary backup (i.e., report from third-party equity plan administrator and summary payroll report for the calendar year through the end of the applicable calendar quarter) evidencing the items in the preceding clauses (A) and (B).
Within 30 days following receipt of such report and documentary backup, Moon shall wire to Clover the amount of the employer portion of FICA taxes payable in respect of such exercise of an Adjusted Vested Moon Stock
Option or settlement of any Moon PSU held by a SpinCo Employee.
(c) Similarly, following the end of each calendar quarter in which has occurred any exercise by a SpinCo Employee of an Adjusted Vested Moon Stock Option or settlement of a Moon PSU held by a SpinCo Employee, in each
case that gives rise to required employment taxes or social insurance (or similar) payments to a Governmental Authority that are owed by an employer, Clover shall provide Moon with documentary backup (e.g., year-to-date wage statements) evidencing
the actual payments by Clover of such employer taxes or other payments during such calendar quarter. Within 30 days following receipt of such documentation, Moon shall wire to Clover reimbursement for such employer taxes and other payments. In the
event that Clover or its Subsidiaries receives a refund of any such employer taxes or other payments that were the subject of a Moon reimbursement payment, such refund shall be paid promptly by Clover to Moon (and, in the event that any refund is
not able to be specifically allocated to any particular reimbursement payment, Clover shall promptly pay to Moon its pro rata portion of such refund (determined as the ratio of the amount of the Moon reimbursements in respect of the applicable
taxes or other payments to the total amount of applicable taxes and other payments paid by Clover and its Subsidiaries in respect of the taxable year for which such refund is received)).”

Transfer of Personnel Records and Authorization
|
Xxxxxxxxx-Xxxx and Xxxxxxx acknowledge that certain Benefit Management Records for SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees (that are not contained within the applicable PeopleSoft HRIS system) may exist in
physical form throughout various Company locations (or at offsite locations), and may be commingled with records of Employees (other than SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees), and that it will take significant time to locate and properly
identify and segregate the applicable Benefit Management Records. Accordingly, Section 7.02 of the EMA is amended to provide that Xxxxxxxxx-Xxxx will transfer Benefit Management Records for SpinCo Employees and Former SpinCo Employees as soon as
administratively practicable following the Distribution Date (or as commercially reasonable on an expedited basis following a time-sensitive request from Clover).

“Subject to any limitation imposed by applicable Law, prior to the Distribution Date or as soon as administratively practicable (on commercially reasonable expedited basis) after the Distribution Date, Moon shall have

HRA Retiree Medical Claims Timing
|
Section 3.08(b) is amended to revise the time at which claims are deemed to be incurred with respect to HRA retiree medical liabilities, in order to properly ensure that the future claims are paid from the accounts
passed through to the Clover Group, as the EMA does not properly contemplate a defined contribution retiree medical arrangement.
Accordingly, the last sentence of Section 3.08(b) of the EMA is deleted in its entirety and replaced as follows:
“For purposes of this Section 3.08(b) and Section 3.08(c), a claim is deemed to be incurred (i) with respect to medical, dental, vision, or prescription drug benefits (other than benefits described in
clause (iv)), as applicable, on the date on which the services are performed or the goods are provided, regardless of when the injury or medical condition giving rise to the claim occurred, (ii) with respect to life, accidental death and
dismemberment, and business travel accident insurance, on the date on which the event giving rise to such claim occurs, (iii) with respect to disability benefits, on the date on which a person’s disability begins, as determined by the disability
benefit insurer or claims administrator, giving rise to such claim, and (iv) with respect to retiree medical claims to be paid from a health reimbursement account, on the date when the request for reimbursement, including appropriate documentation,
is received by the health reimbursement account claims administrator.”
