EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

Exhibit 10.1

This Employment Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of May 11, 2021, is by and between SITE Centers Corp., an Ohio corporation (“SITE Centers” or the “Company”), and Xxxx Xxxxxxxx (“Executive”).

The Board of Directors of SITE Centers (the “Board”), on behalf of the Company, and Executive desire to enter into this Agreement to reflect the terms pursuant to which Executive will continue to serve SITE Centers (certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement have the meanings ascribed to them in Section 22 of this Agreement).

SITE Centers and Executive agree, effective as of the date first set forth above (the “Effective Date”), as follows:

1. Employment, Term. SITE Centers will engage and employ Executive to render services in the administration and operation of its affairs as its Chief Investment Officer, reporting directly to SITE Centers’ Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”) and performing such duties and having such responsibilities and authority as are customarily incident to the principal investment officers of companies similar in size to, and in a similar business as, SITE Centers, together with such other duties as, from time to time, may be specified by the CEO, in a manner consistent with Executive’s status as Chief Investment Officer, all in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, for a term extending from the Effective Date through May 11, 2024. The period of time from the Effective Date through May 11, 2024 is sometimes referred to herein as the “Contract Period.” During the Contract Period while Executive is employed by SITE Centers, Executive shall report to the CEO.

2. Full-Time Services. Throughout the Contract Period while Executive is employed by SITE Centers, Executive will devote substantially all of Executive’s business time and efforts to the service of SITE Centers, except for (a) usual vacation periods and reasonable periods of illness, (b) reasonable periods of time devoted to Executive’s personal financial affairs, and (c) with the prior consent of the CEO, services as a director or trustee of other corporations or organizations, either for profit or not for profit, that are not in competition with SITE Centers; provided, however, that in no event shall Executive devote less than 90% of Executive’s business time and efforts to the service of SITE Centers.

3. Compensation. For all services to be rendered by Executive to SITE Centers under this Agreement during the Contract Period while Executive is employed by SITE Centers, including services as Chief Investment Officer and any other services specified by the CEO, SITE Centers will pay and provide to Executive the compensation and benefits specified in this Section 3.

3.1 Base Salary. From and after the Effective Date and through the end of the Contract Period while Executive is employed by SITE Centers, SITE Centers will pay Executive base salary (the “Base Salary”), in equal monthly or more frequent installments, at the rate of not less than Three Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars ($350,000) per year, subject to such increases as the Committee or the Board of Directors of SITE Centers (the “Board”) may approve. Any such increased Base Salary shall constitute “Base Salary” for purposes of this Agreement.

3.2 Annual Bonus. For each calendar year during the Contract Period while Executive is employed by SITE Centers, subject to achievement of applicable performance criteria, the Company shall make an annual incentive payment to Executive, in cash, for such calendar year (an “Annual Bonus”) between January 1 and March 15 of the immediately subsequent calendar year, determined and calculated in accordance with the percentages set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto (and rounded to the nearest dollar). The Company’s payment of an Annual Bonus to Executive shall be determined based on the factors and criteria that have been or may be

reasonably established from time to time for the calculation of the Annual Bonus by the Committee. For each calendar year in the Contract Period while Executive is employed by SITE Centers, the Board or the Committee will establish, and thereafter provide Executive with written notice of, the performance metrics and their relative weighting to be used in, and any specific threshold, target and maximum performance targets applicable to, the determination of the Annual Bonus for Executive for such calendar year not later than March 15 of such year. There is no guaranteed Annual Bonus under this Agreement, and for each applicable year, Executive’s Annual Bonus could be as low as zero or as high as the maximum percentage set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each Annual Bonus shall be on the terms and subject to such conditions as are specified for the particular Company plans or programs pursuant to which the Annual Bonus is granted.

3.3 Specific Equity Awards. The awards described in this Section 3.3 will at all times be subject to the approval of the Committee and to the terms and conditions of the Company’s 2019 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan (or its successor(s)), as in effect from time to time (collectively, the “Equity Plan”), including, without limitation, all authority and powers provided or reserved to such plan’s administrator thereunder, as well as the award agreements for such awards. As applicable, any awards vesting in installments shall be rounded up to the next nearest share amount divisible by the number of installments.

(a) Initial Grant. On or as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, Executive shall be entitled to receive a grant of service-based restricted share units (“RSUs”) (or substantially similar award) covering a number of Shares equal to the quotient of (A) $300,000 divided by (B) the average closing price of a Share for the ten trading days immediately preceding (but not including) the date of grant on the principal stock exchange on which it then trades (the “Initial RSUs”). Such Initial RSUs will, in general, vest subject to Executive’s continued employment with the Company in three substantially equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of grant, with dividend equivalents credited with respect to such Initial RSUs deferred until (and paid in Shares contingent upon) the vesting of such Initial RSUs.

(b) Annual Grants.

(i) Annual RSUs. No later than March 15 of each calendar year during the Contract Period (starting in 2022), provided that Executive is continuously employed by SITE Centers through the applicable date of grant, Executive shall be eligible to receive a grant of service-based RSUs (or substantially similar award) covering a number of Shares equal to the quotient of (A) not less than $125,000 divided by (B) the average closing price of a Share for the ten trading days immediately preceding (but not including) the date of grant on the principal stock exchange on which it then trades (the “Annual RSUs”). Each grant of Annual RSUs will, in general, vest subject to Executive’s continued employment with the Company in three substantially equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the applicable date of grant, and dividend equivalents credited with respect to such Annual RSUs will be paid in cash on a current basis.

(ii) PRSUs. No later than March 15 of each calendar year during the Contract Period (starting in 2022), provided that Executive is continuously employed by SITE Centers through the applicable date of grant, Executive shall be eligible to receive one or more grants of performance-based RSUs (or substantially similar awards) covering a “target” number of Shares (in the aggregate) equal to the quotient of (A) not less than $250,000 divided by (B) the average closing price of

a Share for the ten trading days immediately preceding (but not including) the date of grant on the principal stock exchange on which it then trades, the payout of which grant(s) will vary from 0% to 200% of the target award(s) based on achievement with respect to performance objectives established by the Committee, measured over, for each such award, a three-year performance period (the “PRSUs”); provided, however, that no less than 50% of the aggregate target PRSU award(s) for each such calendar year shall vest (from 0% to 200%) based on SITE Centers’ total shareholder return achievement relative to a peer group established by the Committee. Such PRSUs will be payable, if earned, after the expiration of the applicable performance period, and dividend equivalents credited with respect to such PRSUs will be deferred until (and paid in Shares contingent upon) the earning and vesting of such PRSUs.

3.4 Certain Other Equity Award Terms. Subject in all cases to the terms of the Equity Plan, any Initial RSUs, Annual RSUs and PRSUs granted to Executive in accordance with this Agreement and outstanding and unvested at the time of Executive’s termination of employment with the Company will vest on an accelerated basis and be paid pursuant to their terms if such termination is: (a) by the Company without Cause; (b) by Executive for Good Reason; (c) by the Company due to Executive’s Total Disability; or (d) due to Executive’s death; otherwise, upon Executive’s termination of employment, such outstanding and unvested awards (and any related unvested or unpaid dividend equivalents) will be forfeited by Executive (unless otherwise determined by the Committee before such termination of employment).

3.5 Taxes. Executive shall be solely responsible for taxes imposed on Executive by reason of any compensation and benefits provided under this Agreement, and all such compensation and benefits shall be subject to applicable withholding taxes.

4. Benefits.

4.1 Retirement and Other Benefit Plans Generally. Throughout the Contract Period while Executive is employed by SITE Centers, Executive will be entitled to participate in all retirement and other benefit plans maintained by SITE Centers that are generally available to its senior executives and with respect to which Executive is eligible pursuant to the terms of the underlying plan or plans, including, without limitation, the SITE Centers 401(k) plan for its employees and any SITE Centers deferred compensation program.

4.2 Insurance, Generally. Throughout the Contract Period while Executive is employed by SITE Centers, SITE Centers will provide an enrollment opportunity to Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents for health, dental and vision insurance coverage, other insurance (e.g., life, disability, etc.) and any other health and welfare benefits maintained by SITE Centers from time to time, if any, during the Contract Period that are generally available to its senior executives and with respect to which Executive is eligible pursuant to the terms of the underlying plan or plans. To the extent that SITE Centers maintains officer insurance coverage, Executive shall be covered by such policy on terms no less favorable than provided to other officers.

(b) A lump sum amount equal to Executive’s Annual Bonus earned for the calendar year immediately preceding the calendar year in which the Termination Date occurs, to the extent not already paid.

(c) A lump sum amount equal in value to Executive’s Annual Bonus that would have been earned for the calendar year in which the Termination Date occurs, pro-rated based on the number of days that Executive is employed by SITE Centers during the applicable performance period, and calculated on the basis of actual performance of the applicable performance objectives for the entire performance period. Subject to Section 13.1, SITE Centers will pay this amount to Executive on the same date that the Annual Bonus for such year would have been paid if Executive’s employment had not been terminated, but in any event not later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Termination Date occurs.

Subject to Section 13.1, SITE Centers will pay this amount to Executive as soon as practicable (but no later than 74 days) following the Termination Date. Any annual bonus paid by SITE Centers to Executive for a calendar year prior to 2021 will constitute an “Annual Bonus” for purposes of calculating the Average Annual Bonus in connection with this Section 7.2(d) or Section 7.5(d).

(e) A lump sum in cash in an amount equal to the product of (i) 18 multiplied by (ii) the sum of (A) the monthly COBRA premium for health, dental and vision benefits but only if Executive timely elects continuation coverage under SITE Centers’ health, dental and vision plans pursuant to COBRA, plus (B) the employer portion of the monthly premium for other SITE Centers provided insurance (e.g., life, disability, etc.) in effect for Executive as of the Termination Date.

7.5 Upon Termination In Connection With a Change in Control. Upon the occurrence of a Triggering Event during the Contract Period while Executive is employed by SITE Centers, SITE Centers will pay and provide to Executive the amounts and benefits specified in this Section 7.5, and SITE Centers will be deemed to have waived its right to provide a Release as provided in Section 8.2, and the provision of a Release will not be a condition to Executive receiving any payment or benefit from SITE Centers under this Section 7.5. The amounts and benefits specified in this Section 7.5 are as follows:

(c) A lump sum amount equal in value to Executive’s Annual Bonus that would have been earned for the calendar year in which the Termination Date occurs at the “Target” level, pro-rated based on the number of days that Executive is employed by SITE Centers during the applicable performance period.

Bonus. Subject to Section 13.1, SITE Centers will pay this amount to Executive as soon as practicable (but no later than 74 days) following the Termination Date.

8. Release. This Section 8 will apply only upon termination of Executive’s employment during the Contract Period (a) by SITE Centers without Cause, (b) by Executive for Good Reason, (c) by reason of Executive’s death or (d) by SITE Centers pursuant to Section 6.1 following Executive’s disability.

8.1 Presentation of Release by SITE Centers. If this Section 8 applies, SITE Centers may present to Executive (or in the case of Executive’s death or legal incapacity, to Executive’s personal representative), not later than 21 days after the Termination Date, a form of release (a “Release”) of all current and future claims, known or unknown, arising on or before the date on which the Release is to be executed, that Executive or Executive’s assigns have or may have against SITE Centers or any Subsidiary, and the directors, officers, and affiliates of any of them, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B, but subject to such modifications as may be reasonably determined necessary or appropriate by the Committee to reflect changes in applicable law or reasonable changes in best practices between the Effective Date and the execution of such Release, together with a covering message in which SITE Centers advises Executive (or Executive’s personal representative) that the Release is being presented in accordance with this Section 8.1 and that a failure by Executive (or Executive’s personal representative) to execute and return the Release as contemplated by Section 8.3 would relieve SITE Centers of the obligation to make payments otherwise due to Executive (or to Executive’s personal representative) under one or more portions of Section 7.2, Section 7.3 or Section 7.4, as the case may be.

8.2 Effect of Failure by SITE Centers to Present Release. If SITE Centers fails to present a Release and covering message to Executive (or Executive’s personal representative) as contemplated by Section 8.1, SITE Centers will be deemed to have waived the requirement that Executive (or Executive’s personal representative) execute a Release as a condition to receiving payments under any portion of Section 7.2, Section 7.3 or Section 7.4, as the case may be.

8.3 Execution of Release by Executive or Executive’s Personal Representative. If SITE Centers does present a Release and covering message to Executive (or Executive’s personal representative) as contemplated by Section 8.1, Executive (or Executive’s personal representative) will have until 60 days after the Termination Date (i.e., at least 39 days after presentation of the Release to Executive (or Executive’s personal representative)) within which to deliver an executed copy of the Release to SITE Centers and thereby satisfy the condition to receiving payments under any portion of Section 7.2, Section 7.3 or Section 7.4, as the case may be, provided that Executive (or Executive’s personal representative) does not revoke the execution of the Release during any applicable revocation period.

8.4 Effect of Failure to Execute Release or of Revocation of Release. If Executive (or Executive’s personal representative) fails to deliver an executed copy of the Release to SITE Centers within 60 days after the Termination Date or revokes the execution of the Release during any applicable revocation period, Executive (or Executive’s personal representative) will be

deemed to have waived the right to receive all payments under Section 7.2, Section 7.3 or Section 7.4, as the case may be, that were conditioned on the Release.

9. Disability Definitions; Physical Examination.

9.1 Definitions. For all purposes of this Agreement:

(a) Executive’s “Own Occupation” means the regular occupation in which Executive is engaged under this Agreement at the time Executive becomes disabled.

(b) “Total Disability” means that, because of sickness or injury, Executive is not able to perform the material and substantial duties of Executive’s Own Occupation.

(c) “Totally Disabled” means that Executive suffers from Total Disability (and Executive will be deemed to continue to be Totally Disabled so long as Executive is not able to work in Executive’s Own Occupation even if Executive works in some other capacity).

9.2 Physical Examination. If either SITE Centers or Executive, at any time or from time to time after receipt of notice of Executive’s Total Disability from the other, desires to contend that Executive is not Totally Disabled, Executive will promptly submit to a physical examination by the chief of medicine of any major accredited hospital in the New York, New York or Cleveland, Ohio areas (at SITE Centers’ reasonable cost) and, unless that physician issues his or her written statement to the effect that, in his or her opinion, based on his or her diagnosis, Executive is capable of resuming Executive’s Own Occupation and discharging the duties of Executive’s Own Occupation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Executive will be deemed to be and to continue to be Totally Disabled for all purposes of this Agreement.

10. No Set‑Off; No Obligation to Seek Other Employment or to Otherwise Mitigate Damages; No Effect Upon Other Plans. SITE Centers’ obligation to make the payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations under this Agreement will not be affected by any set‑off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense, or other claim whatsoever that SITE Centers or any Subsidiary or affiliate may have against Executive, except that the prohibition on set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense, or other claim contained in this sentence will not apply if Executive’s employment is terminated by SITE Centers for Cause. Executive will not be required to mitigate damages or the amount of any payment provided for under this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise. The amount of any payment provided for under this Agreement will not be reduced by any compensation or benefits earned by Executive as the result of employment by another employer or otherwise after the Termination Date. Neither the provisions of this Agreement nor the making of any payment provided for under this Agreement, nor the termination of SITE Centers’ obligations under this Agreement, will reduce any amounts otherwise payable, or in any way diminish Executive’s rights, under any incentive compensation plan, stock option or stock appreciation rights plan, restricted stock plan or agreement, deferred compensation, retirement, or supplemental retirement plan, stock purchase and savings plan, disability or insurance plan, or other similar contract, plan, or arrangement of SITE Centers or any Subsidiary, all of which will be governed by their respective terms.

11. Payments Are in Lieu of Severance Payments. If Executive becomes entitled to receive payments under this Agreement as a result of termination of Executive’s employment, those payments will be in lieu of any and all other claims or rights that Executive may have against SITE Centers for severance, separation, and/or salary continuation pay upon that termination of Executive’s employment.

12. Covenants and Confidential Information. Executive acknowledges SITE Centers’ reliance on and expectation of Executive’s continued commitment to performance of Executive’s duties and

responsibilities during the Contract Period while Executive is employed by SITE Centers and Executive assumes the obligations set out in this Section 12 in light of that reliance and expectation on the part of SITE Centers.

12.1 Noncompetition. During the Contract Period while Executive is employed by SITE Centers, and for a period of 12 months thereafter, Executive will not, directly or indirectly, own, manage, control, or participate in the ownership, management, or control of, or be employed or engaged by or otherwise affiliated or associated as a consultant, independent contractor, or otherwise with the entities that are part of SITE Centers’ relative total shareholder return peer group, as most recently (but no later than as of the date of Executive’s termination of employment) designated with respect to awards of performance-based RSUs granted to Executive; provided, however, that the ownership by Executive of not more than three percent of any class of publicly traded securities of any entity will not be deemed a violation of this Section 12.1.

12.2 Confidentiality. Throughout and after the Contract Period, Executive will not disclose, divulge, discuss, copy, or otherwise use or suffer to be used in any manner, in competition with, or contrary to the interests of, SITE Centers, any confidential information relating to SITE Centers’ operations, properties, or otherwise to its particular business or other trade secrets of SITE Centers, it being acknowledged by Executive that all such information regarding the business of SITE Centers compiled or obtained by, or furnished to, Executive during Executive’s employment by or association with SITE Centers is confidential information and SITE Centers’ exclusive property. The restrictions in this Section 12.2 will not apply to any information to the extent that it (a) is clearly obtainable in the public domain, (b) becomes obtainable in the public domain, except by reason of the breach by Executive of Executive’s obligations under this Section 12.2, (c) was not acquired by Executive in connection with Executive’s employment or affiliation with SITE Centers, (d) was not acquired by Executive from SITE Centers or its representatives, or (e) is required to be disclosed by rule of law or by order of a court or governmental body or agency. However, nothing in this Agreement or in ancillary agreements is intended to interfere with or discourage the disclosure of a suspected violation of the law to any governmental entity, or to discourage Executive from participating in an investigation by a governmental entity regarding a suspected violation of the law.

12.3 Non-Disparagement.

(a) Throughout and after the Contract Period, outside the ordinary course of business on behalf of the Company, Executive will not make or issue, or procure any person, firm, or entity to make or issue, any statement in any form, including written, oral and electronic communications of any kind, which conveys negative or adverse information concerning SITE Centers or its Subsidiaries or affiliates, or any of their legal predecessors, successors, assigns, parents, subsidiaries, divisions or other affiliates, or any of the foregoing’s respective past, present or future directors, officers, employees or representatives (collectively, the “Non-Disparagement Parties”), or any Non-Disparagement Party’s business, or its actions, to any person or entity, regardless of the truth or falsity of such statement.

(b) Throughout and after the Contract Period, SITE Centers will reasonably direct the executive officers and directors of SITE Centers not to make or issue, or procure any person, firm, or entity to make or issue, any statement in any form, including written, oral and electronic communications of any kind, which conveys negative or adverse information concerning Executive or any of Executive’s legal successors, assigns, or other affiliates, or any of the foregoing’s respective past, present or future directors, officers, employees or representatives (collectively, the “Executive Non-Disparagement

Parties”), or any Executive Non-Disparagement Party’s business, or its actions, to any person or entity, regardless of the truth or falsity of such statement.

(c) This Section 12.3 does not apply to truthful testimony or disclosure compelled or required by applicable law or legal process. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or ancillary agreements to the contrary, Executive is not prohibited from providing information voluntarily to the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 21F of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

12.4 Nonsolicitation. During the Contract Period while Executive is employed by SITE Centers, and for a period of 12 months thereafter, Executive will not directly or indirectly solicit or induce or attempt to solicit or induce any employee of SITE Centers and/or of any Subsidiary or affiliate to terminate his or her employment with SITE Centers and/or any Subsidiary.

12.5 Remedies. Executive acknowledges that the remedy at law for any breach by Executive of this Section 12 may be inadequate and that the damages following from any such breach may not be readily susceptible to being measured in monetary terms. Accordingly, Executive agrees that, upon adequate proof of Executive’s violation of any legally enforceable provision of this Section 12, SITE Centers will be entitled to immediate injunctive relief and may obtain a temporary order restraining any threatened or further breach. Nothing in this Section 12 will be deemed to limit SITE Centers’ remedies at law or in equity for any breach by Executive of any of the provisions of this Section 12 that may be pursued or availed of by SITE Centers.

12.6 Acknowledgement. Executive has carefully considered the nature and extent of the restrictions upon Executive and the rights and remedies conferred upon SITE Centers under this Section 12, and hereby acknowledges and agrees that the same are reasonable in time and territory, are designed to eliminate competition that otherwise would be unfair to SITE Centers, do not stifle the inherent skill and experience of Executive, would not operate as a bar to Executive’s sole means of support, are fully required to protect the legitimate interests of SITE Centers, and do not confer a benefit upon SITE Centers disproportionate to the detriment to Executive.

13. Compliance with Section 409A.

13.1 Six Month Delay on Certain Payments, Benefits, and Reimbursements . If Executive is a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A (as determined under SITE Centers’ policy for determining specified employees on the Termination Date), to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i ), each payment, benefit, or reimbursement paid or provided under this Agreement that constitutes a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A , that is to be paid or provided as a result of a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, and that would otherwise be paid or provided at any time (a “Scheduled Time”) that is on or before the date (the “Six Month Date”) that is exactly six months after the Termination Date (other than payments, benefits, or reimbursements that are treated as separation pay under Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(v) of the Treasury Regulations) will not be paid or provided at the Scheduled Time but will be accumulated (together with interest at the applicable federal rate under Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code in effect on the Termination Date) through the Six Month Date and paid or provided during the period of 30 consecutive days beginning on the first business day after the Six Month Date (that period of 30 consecutive days, the “Seventh Month after the Termination Date”), except that if Executive dies before the Six Month Date, the payments, benefits, or reimbursements will be accumulated only through the date of Executive’s death and thereafter paid or provided not later than 30 days after the date of death.

13.2 Additional Limitations on Reimbursements and In-Kind Benefits. The reimbursement of expenses or in-kind benefits provided under Section 7 or under any other section of this Agreement that are taxable benefits (and that are not disability pay or death benefit plans within the meaning of Section 409A) are intended to comply, to the maximum extent possible, with the exception to Section 409A set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(v) of the Treasury Regulations. To the extent that any reimbursement of expenses or in-kind benefits provided under Section 7 or under any other section of this Agreement do not qualify for that exception and are otherwise deferred compensation subject to Section 409A , then they will be subject to the following additional rules: (i) any reimbursement of eligible expenses will be paid within 30 days following Executive’s written request for reimbursement; provided, however, that Executive provides written notice no later than 60 days before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred so that SITE Centers can make the reimbursement within the time periods required by Section 409A; (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during any calendar year will not affect the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, during any other calendar year; and (iii) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits will not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit.

13.3 Compliance Generally. Each payment or reimbursement and the provision of each benefit under this Agreement shall be considered a separate payment and not one of a series of payments for purposes of Section 409A. SITE Centers and Executive intend that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement will either be exempt from the application of, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A. This Agreement is to be construed, administered, and governed in a manner that effects that intent and SITE Centers will not take any action that is inconsistent with that intent. Without limiting the foregoing, the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement may not be deferred, accelerated, extended, paid out, or modified in a manner that would result in the imposition of an additional tax under Section 409A upon Executive. Notwithstanding any provision of Section 7 to the contrary, if the period commencing on the Termination Date begins in one taxable year of Executive and the 74th day following the Termination Date is in a subsequent taxable year, any amounts payable under Section 7 which are considered deferred compensation under Section 409A shall be paid in such subsequent taxable year.

13.4 Termination of Employment to Constitute a Separation from Service. The parties intend that the phrase “termination of employment” and words and phrases of similar import mean a “separation from service” with SITE Centers within the meaning of Section 409A. Executive and SITE Centers will take all steps necessary (including taking into account this Section 13.4 when considering any further agreement regarding provision of services by Executive to SITE Centers after the Termination Date) to ensure that (a) any termination of employment under this Agreement constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, and (b) the Termination Date is the date on which Executive experiences a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

14. Indemnification. SITE Centers will indemnify Executive, to the full extent permitted or authorized by the Ohio General Corporation Law as it may from time to time be amended, if Executive is made or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, by reason of the fact that Executive is or was a director, officer, or employee of SITE Centers and/or of any Subsidiary, or is or was serving at the request of SITE Centers and/or of any Subsidiary as a director, trustee, officer, or employee of a corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise. The indemnification provided by this Section 14 will not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Executive may be entitled under the articles of incorporation or the regulations of SITE Centers and/or of any Subsidiary, or any agreement, vote of

shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, both as to action in Executive’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and will continue as to Executive after Executive has ceased to be a director, trustee, officer, or employee and will inure to the benefit of Executive’s heirs, executors, and administrators. In particular, Executive will continue to be entitled to the full benefit of the indemnification agreement dated as of the Effective Date between Executive and SITE Centers (the “Indemnification Agreement”) for so long as that Indemnification Agreement remains in effect according to its terms. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this Section 14 and the provisions of the Indemnification Agreement, the provisions of the Indemnification Agreement shall control.

15. Adjustment of Certain Payments and Benefits. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any payment or benefit to be paid or provided hereunder or under any other plan or agreement would be an “Excess Parachute Payment,” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, or any successor provision thereto, but for the application of this sentence, then the payments and benefits to be paid or provided hereunder shall be reduced to the minimum extent necessary (but in no event to less than zero) so that no portion of any such payment or benefit, as so reduced, constitutes an Excess Parachute Payment; provided, however, that the foregoing reduction shall be made only if and to the extent that such reduction would result in an increase in the aggregate payments and benefits to be provided, determined on an after-tax basis (taking into account the excise tax imposed pursuant to Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, or any successor provision thereto, any tax imposed by any comparable provision of state law, and any applicable federal, state and local income taxes). The determination of whether any reduction in such payments or benefits to be provided hereunder is required pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be made at the expense of the Company, if requested by Executive or the Company, by the Company’s independent accountants or a nationally recognized law firm chosen by the Company. The fact that Executive’s right to payments or benefits may be reduced by reason of the limitations contained in this Section 15 shall not of itself limit or otherwise affect any other rights of Executive under this Agreement. In the event that any payment or benefit intended to be provided hereunder is required to be reduced pursuant to this Section 15, then the reduction will be made in accordance with Section 409A and will occur in the following order: (a) first, by reducing any cash payments with the last scheduled payment reduced first; (b) second, by reducing any equity-based benefits that are included at full value under Q&A-24(a) of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code (the “280G Regulations”), with the highest value reduced first; (c) third, by reducing any equity-based benefits included on an acceleration value under Q&A-24(b) or 24(c) of the 280G Regulations, with the highest value reduced first; and (d) fourth, by reducing any non-cash, non-equity based benefits, with the latest scheduled benefit reduced first.

16. Certain Expenses. This Section 16 will apply only to expenses that (a) are otherwise described in one or more of its subsections and (b) are incurred at any time from the Effective Date through the fifth anniversary of Executive’s death.

16.1 Reimbursement of Certain Expenses. SITE Centers will pay, as incurred, all expenses, including the reasonable fees of counsel engaged by Executive, of Executive in (a) prosecuting any action to compel SITE Centers to comply with the terms of this Agreement upon receipt from Executive of an undertaking to repay SITE Centers for such expenses if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that Executive had no reasonable grounds for bringing such action or (b) defending any action brought by a party other than Executive or Executive’s personal representative to have this Agreement declared invalid or unenforceable.

16.2 Advancement of Certain Expenses. Expenses (including the reasonable fees of counsel engaged by Executive) incurred by Executive in defending any action, suit, or proceeding commenced or threatened against Executive for any action or failure to act as an employee, officer or director of SITE Centers and/or of any Subsidiary will be paid by SITE Centers, as they

are incurred, in advance of final disposition of the action, suit, or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of Executive in which Executive agrees to reasonably cooperate with SITE Centers and/or the Subsidiary, as the case may be, concerning the action, suit, or proceeding, and (a) if the action, suit, or proceeding is commenced or threatened against Executive for any action or failure to act as a director, to repay the amount if it is proved by clear and convincing evidence in a court of competent jurisdiction that his action or failure to act involved an act or omission undertaken with deliberate intent to cause injury to SITE Centers or a Subsidiary or with reckless disregard for the best interests of SITE Centers or a Subsidiary, or (b) if the action, suit, or proceeding is commenced or threatened against Executive for any action or failure to act as an officer or employee, to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined that Executive is not entitled to be indemnified. The obligation of SITE Centers to advance expenses provided for in this Section 16.2 will not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Executive may be entitled under the articles of incorporation or the regulations of SITE Centers or of any Subsidiary, or any agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.

17. Survival of Obligations. Except as is otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the respective obligations of SITE Centers and Executive under this Agreement will survive any termination of Executive’s employment under this Agreement.

18. Notices. Notices and all other communications provided for in this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given upon receipt (or rejection) when delivered in person or by overnight delivery (to the chief legal officer of SITE Centers in the case of notices to SITE Centers and to Executive in the case of notices to Executive) or mailed by United States registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, and addressed, if to SITE Centers, to its principal place of business, attention: Chief Legal Officer, and, if to Executive, to Executive’s home address last shown on the records of SITE Centers, or to such other address or addresses as either party may furnish to the other in accordance with this Section 18.

19. Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise set forth below in this Section 19, this Agreement and the agreements specifically referenced herein supersede in their entirety all prior agreements between the parties, if any, and all understandings between them, if any, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. As provided in Section 14, Executive will continue to be entitled to the full benefit of the Indemnification Agreement for so long as it remains in effect according to its terms.

20. Mandatory Arbitration Before a Change in Control. Section 20.1 will apply if and only if either party notifies the other, in writing, that it is demanding resolution of a then-current controversy or claim by arbitration and the notice is provided by the notifying party to the other party before any Change in Control has occurred. Nothing in this Section 20 will limit the right of SITE Centers to seek and obtain injunctive relief in a court of equity for any breach or threatened breach by Executive of any of Executive’s covenants contained in Section 12 above.

20.1 Scope of Arbitration. If this Section 20.1 applies, any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any breach of this Agreement will be settled by binding arbitration to be held before three arbitrators and conducted in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures of the American Arbitration Association in the City of Cleveland, Ohio or New York, New York. The decision of the arbitrators will be final and binding on both parties and judgment on any award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Costs and expenses of any such arbitration will be borne by the parties as may be directed by the arbitrators taking into account the extent to which the positions taken by each of the parties are reasonable. The arbitrators will have the power to issue mandatory orders and restraining orders in connection with any such arbitration.

20.2 Other Disputes. If Section 20.1 does not apply to any claim or controversy between the parties, the parties may nevertheless, but need not, mutually agree to submit any controversy or claim to arbitration as though Section 20.1 did apply. Failing any such mutual agreement, either party may bring proceedings against the other with respect to any claim or controversy in any court of competent jurisdiction that satisfies the venue requirements set forth in Section 21.8. Nothing in this Section 20.2 imposes upon either party any obligation to discuss possible arbitration of any claim or controversy to which Section 20.1 does not apply before bringing any court proceedings with respect to that claim or controversy.

21. Miscellaneous.

21.1 No Conflict. Executive represents and warrants that Executive is not a party to any agreement, contract, or understanding, whether employment or otherwise, that would restrict or prohibit Executive from undertaking or performing employment in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

21.2 Assistance. During the term of this Agreement and thereafter, Executive will provide reasonable assistance to SITE Centers in litigation and regulatory matters that relate to events that occurred during Executive’s period of employment with SITE Centers and its predecessors, and will provide reasonable assistance to SITE Centers with matters relating to its corporate history from the period of Executive’s employment with it or its predecessors. Executive will be entitled to reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket travel or related costs and expenses relating to any such cooperation or assistance that occurs following the Termination Date.

21.3 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more provision is determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions and any partially unenforceable provision to the extent enforceable in any jurisdiction nevertheless will be binding and enforceable.

21.4 Benefit of Agreement. The rights and obligations of SITE Centers under this Agreement will inure to the benefit of, and will be binding on, SITE Centers and its successors and assigns, and the rights and obligations (other than obligations to perform services) of Executive under this Agreement will inure to the benefit of, and will be binding upon, Executive and Executive’s heirs, personal representatives, and assigns.

21.5 No Waiver. The failure of either party to enforce any provision or provisions of this Agreement will not in any way be construed as a waiver of any such provision or provisions as to any future violations thereof, nor prevent that party from later enforcing each and every other provision of this Agreement. The rights granted the parties in this Agreement are cumulative and the waiver of any single remedy will not constitute a waiver of that party’s right to assert all other legal remedies available to it under the circumstances.

21.6 Modification . This Agreement may not be modified or terminated orally. No modification or termination will be valid unless in writing and signed by the party against which the modification or termination is sought to be enforced. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, however, Executive acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement and any compensation described herein are subject to the terms and conditions of the Company's clawback policy (if any) as may be in effect from time to time including specifically to implement Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and any applicable rules or regulations promulgated thereunder (including applicable rules and regulations of any national securities exchange on which the Shares may be traded) (the “Compensation Recovery Policy”), and that applicable sections of this Agreement and any related documents shall be deemed

superseded by and subject to the terms and conditions of the Compensation Recovery Policy from and after the effective date thereof.

21.7 Merger or Transfer of Assets of SITE Centers. During the Contract Period while Executive is employed by SITE Centers, SITE Centers will not consolidate with or merge into any other corporation, or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation, unless such other corporation assumes this Agreement in a signed writing and delivers a copy thereof to Executive, which signed writing may consist of the merger or sale agreement, or similar document. Upon any such assumption, the successor corporation will become obligated to perform the obligations of SITE Centers under this Agreement, and the terms “SITE Centers” and the “Company,” as used in this Agreement, will be deemed to refer to that successor corporation, and the term “the Board” as used in this Agreement will be deemed to refer to the board of directors of that successor corporation.

21.8 Governing Law and Venue. The provisions of this Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio applicable to contracts made in and to be performed exclusively within that State, notwithstanding any conflict of law provision to the contrary. Subject to the mandatory arbitration provisions of Section 20, the parties consent to venue and personal jurisdiction over them in the courts of the State of Ohio and federal courts sitting in Cleveland, Ohio, for purposes of construing and enforcing this Agreement.

21.9 Termination of Status as Director or Officer. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, unless otherwise agreed to by SITE Centers and Executive prior to the Termination Date, Executive shall be deemed to have automatically resigned from all directorships and offices with SITE Centers and its Subsidiaries, and their affiliates (including joint ventures), as of the Termination Date.

Centers’ proxy statement in which such person is named as a nominee of SITE Centers for director), but excluding for this purpose any person whose initial assumption of office as a director of SITE Centers occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors of SITE Centers or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of an individual, corporation, partnership, group, associate or other entity or person other than the Board, shall be, for purposes of this Section 22.2(c), considered as though such person was a member of the Board at the beginning of such period.

In consideration of certain benefits provided to Xxxx Xxxxxxxx (“Executive”) and to be received by Executive from SITE Centers Corp. (the “Company”) as described in the Employment Agreement between the Company and Executive dated May 11, 2021 (the “Agreement”):

Claims Released. Executive, for himself and on behalf of anyone claiming through Executive including each and all of Executive’s legal representatives, administrators, executors, heirs, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Executive Releasors”), does hereby fully, finally and forever release, absolve and discharge the Company and each and all of its legal predecessors, successors, assigns, fiduciaries, parents, subsidiaries, divisions and other affiliates, and each of the foregoing’s respective past, present and future principals, partners, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants, attorneys, trustees, administrators, executors and representatives (collectively, the “Company Released Parties”), of, from and for any and all claims, causes of action, lawsuits, controversies, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, expenses and demands of any nature whatsoever, at law or in equity, whether known or unknown, asserted or unasserted, foreseen or unforeseen, that the Executive Releasors (or any of them) now have, have ever had, or may have against the Company Released Parties (or any of them) based upon, arising out of, concerning, relating to or resulting from any act, omission, matter, fact, occurrence, transaction, claim, contention, statement or event occurring or existing at any time in the past up to and including the date on which Executive signs this Release, including, without limitation, (a) all claims arising out of or in any way relating to Executive’s employment with or separation of employment from the Company or its affiliates; (b) all claims for compensation or benefits, including salary, commissions, bonuses, vacation pay, expense reimbursements, severance pay, fringe benefits, stock options, restricted stock units or any other ownership interests in the Company Released Parties; (c) all claims for breach of contract, wrongful termination and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing; (d) all tort claims, including claims for fraud, defamation, invasion of privacy and emotional distress; (e) all other common law claims; and (f) all claims (including claims for discrimination, harassment, retaliation, attorneys fees, expenses or otherwise) that were or could have been asserted by Executive or on his behalf in any federal, state, or local court, commission, or agency, or under any federal, state, local, employment, services or other law, regulation, ordinance, constitutional provision, executive order or other source of law, including without limitation under any of the following laws, as amended from time to time: the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (the “ADEA”), as amended by the Older Workers’ Benefit Protection Act of 1990 (the “OWBPA”), Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 1981 & 1981a, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Equal Pay Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, the Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx Fair Pay Act of 2009, the Family and Medical Leave Act, Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002, the National Labor Relations Act, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act, the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act, Federal Executive Order 11246, and the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act.

Scope of Release. Nothing in this Release (a) shall release the Company from any of its obligations set forth in the Agreement or any claim that by law is non-waivable, (b) shall release the Company from any obligation to defend and/or indemnify Executive against any third party claims arising out of any action or inaction by Executive during the time of his employment and within the scope of his duties with the Company to the extent Executive has any such defense or indemnification right, and to the extent permitted by applicable law and to the extent the claims

Executive further acknowledges that by signing this Release, Executive does not waive the right to file a charge against the Company with, communicate with or participate in any investigation by the EEOC, the Securities and Exchange Commission or any comparable state or local agency. However, Executive waives and releases, to the fullest extent legally permissible, all entitlement to any form of monetary relief arising from a charge Executive or others may file, including without limitation any costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees. Executive understands that this waiver and release of monetary relief would not affect an enforcement agency’s ability to investigate a charge or to pursue relief on behalf of others.

Entire Agreement.

I agree to the terms and conditions set forth in this Release.
