Xxxxxx (“Executive”). This Agreement supersedes and replaces in its entirety that certain Employment Agreement by and between Executive and the Company dated as of December 3 , 2012, as amended (the “Prior Agreement”).

BACKGROUND

The Company and Executive mutually desire to amend and restate the Prior Agreement in its entirety and, in connection therewith, to provide for the continued services and employment of Executive by the Company on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

2. Position and Duties. Executive shall be employed as the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company and shall assume the duties inherent in such position, as well as such additional duties as may be prescribed by the Company’s Board of Managers (the “Board”) or Chief Executive Officer from time to time. Executive shall report directly to the Chief Executive Officer. During the Employment Period, Executive shall devote his full business time and attention to the faithful performance of his duties to the Company and its affiliates. Executive shall perform his duties, responsibilities and functions to the Company and its affiliates to the best of his ability in a diligent, trustworthy, professional and efficient manner and shall comply with the Company’s policies and procedures in all material respects. During the Employment Period, Executive shall not serve as an officer or director of, or otherwise perform services for compensation for, any other entity without the prior written consent of the Chief Executive Officer; provided that Executive may serve as an officer or director of or otherwise participate in educational, welfare, social, religious and civic organizations so long as such activities do not otherwise interfere with Executive’s employment.

3. Compensation and Benefits.

3.1 Base Salary. During the Employment Period, Executive’s base salary shall be $315,000 per annum or such higher rate as the Board may determine, in its sole discretion, from time to time (as adjusted from time to time, the “Base Salary”). Executive’s Base Salary shall be

payable by the Company in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices in effect from time to time. In addition to the Base Salary payable to Executive under this Section 3.1, Executive shall be paid an additional amount (the “Tax Gross Up”) equal to the self-employment taxes Executive is obligated to pay as a result of Executive’s status as a partner in a partnership (rather than as an employee of a corporation) for federal income tax purposes. The Tax Gross Up to be paid to Executive shall be determined by the Company in a manner consistent with similar payments made to other senior executives of the Company, and shall be payable in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices in effect from time to time.

3.2 Bonus Plan. In addition to Base Salary, effective as of April 1, 2018, Executive shall be eligible for an annual cash bonus award (“Bonus”) in an amount expected to be not less than a target bonus of fifty percent (50%) of Executive’s then current Base Salary (or such higher target bonus as the Board, in its sole discretion, may determine from time to time). Executive acknowledges and agrees that any such Bonus is not guaranteed and is contingent upon Executive and the Company achieving the goals set forth in a management cash bonus plan (“Bonus Plan”) to be adopted or amended by the Board from time to time. Other than with respect to Executive’s target bonus percentage, Executive shall participate in the Bonus Plan on the same terms as other senior executives of the Company.

3.3 Other Benefits. During the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to participate in all of the Company’s employee benefit programs for which senior executive employees of the Company and its affiliates are generally eligible. Executive shall be entitled to four weeks of paid vacation each calendar year in accordance with the Company’s policies, which if not taken during any year may not be carried forward to any subsequent calendar year and no compensation shall be payable in lieu thereof.

3.4 Location: Expenses.

The Company shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable, ordinary and necessary documented travel (other than commuting costs to Executive’s primary office location), entertainment and other out-of-pocket expenses that Executive incurs on behalf of the Company in the course of his employment hereunder in accordance with the Company’s normal policies and provisions regarding such reimbursements.

4. Indemnification: Directors and Officers Insurance. The Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Executive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any claim, threatened claim, loss, liability, damage, or expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees) brought against, threatened or incurred by Executive arising out of or related to Executive’s service as an officer, employee, or agent of the Company (or arising out of or related to Executive’s service with respect to any other corporation or other enterprise in any such capacity at the request of the Company). In addition, during the Employment Period, the Company shall maintain customary directors’ and officers’ liability insurance for the benefit of Executive; such insurance to be on terms no less favorable than that provided for the benefit of other senior executives and directors of the Company.

(a) At the election of the Company, for Cause, immediately upon written notice by the Company to Executive. For the purposes of this Section 5.1(a), a termination shall be considered to be for “Cause” if it occurs in conjunction with a determination by the Board that Executive has committed, engaged in, or incurred either:

(i) a material breach any of his obligations under this Agreement which Executive fails to cure within thirty (30) days following written notice from the Board,

(ii) any material act of fraud, misappropriation, embezzlement or similar dishonest or wrongful act in performing Executive’s duties for the Company,

(v) material and repeated failure (other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental disability) to carry out the directions, instructions, policies, rules, regulations or decisions of the Board after a written notice of such failure is delivered to Executive by the Board which specifically identifies the failure, or

(vi) conviction of a felony or any crime involving moral turpitude.

(b) Upon the death of Executive or thirty (30) days after the Disability of Executive. As used herein, the term “Disability” means the inability of Executive, due to a physical or mental disability, to perform the essential functions of his position, with or without reasonable accommodation.

(c) At the election of Executive, without Good Reason, upon not less than ninety (90) days’ prior written notice of termination;

A termination by Executive shall not constitute termination for Good Reason unless (x) Executive shall first have delivered to the Company written notice setting forth with specificity the occurrence deemed to give rise to a right to terminate for Good Reason (which notice must be given no later than ninety (90) days after the initial occurrence of such event), (y) the Company shall have thirty (30) days to cure, correct, rescind or otherwise substantially reverse the occurrence supporting termination for Good Reason as identified by Executive (the “Cure Period”), and (z) if the Company’s failed to cure, correct, rescind or otherwise substantially reverse the occurrence supporting termination for Good Reason, Executive actually resigns for Good Reason within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Cure Period.

(c) Termination at the Election of the Company without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason. If Executive’s employment is terminated at the election of the Company pursuant to Section 5.1(d), or by Executive for Good Reason pursuant to Section 5.1(e), and provided that Executive has executed the release attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Release”) and the revocation period for such release has expired no later than sixty (60) days after the Termination Date, in addition to the Accrued Benefits, the Company will pay to Executive (i) severance in the amount equal to one hundred and fifty percent (150%) of Executive’s Base Salary plus Tax Gross Up in effect as of the date of termination, payable in twelve (12) substantially equal monthly installments, commencing within sixty (60) days following the Termination Date (provided that if the 60 day period after the Termination Date begins in one calendar year and ends in a second calendar year, such payments will not commence until the beginning of the second taxable year, and provided further, that the first such installment payment will include all amounts that would otherwise have been paid to Executive during the period beginning on the Termination Date and ending on the first payment date if no delay had been imposed), and (ii) a one-time

payment in an amount equal to $50,000, which such $50,000 payment approximates the cost of twelve (12) months of coverage under the Company’s group health plan, payable in a lump sum within sixty (60) days after the Termination Date (provided that if the 60 day period after the Termination Date begins in one calendar year and ends in a second calendar year, payment will not be made until the beginning of the second taxable year).

This Agreement shall be interpreted and administered in a manner so that any amount or benefit payable hereunder shall be paid or provided in a manner that is either exempt from or compliant with the requirements Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and applicable Internal Revenue Service guidance and Treasury Regulations issued thereunder.

9.2 Definitional Restrictions. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that any amount or benefit that would constitute non-exempt “deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code (“Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation”) would otherwise be payable or distributable hereunder, or a different form of payment of such Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation would be effected, by reason of Executive’s Disability or termination of employment, such Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation will not be payable or distributable to Executive, and/or such different form of payment will not be effected, by reason of such circumstance unless the circumstances giving rise to such Disability or termination of employment, as the case may be, meet any description or definition of “disability” or “separation from service”, as the case may be, in Section 409A of the Code and applicable regulations (without giving effect to any elective provisions that may be available under such definition). This provision does not affect the dollar amount or prohibit the vesting of any Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation upon Disability or termination of employment, however defined. If this provision prevents the payment or distribution of any Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation, or the application of a different form of payment, such payment or distribution shall be made at the time and in the form that would have applied absent the non- 409A- conforming event.

9.3 Six-Month Delay in Certain Circumstances. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if any amount or benefit that would constitute Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation would otherwise be payable or distributable under this Agreement by reason of

9.4 Treatment of Installment Payments. Each payment of termination benefits under Section 5.2 of this Agreement, including, without limitation, each installment payment under Section 5.2, shall be considered a separate payment, as described in Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A- 2(b)(2), for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.

9.5 Timing of Release of Claims. Whenever in this Agreement a payment or benefit is conditioned on Executive’s execution of a release of claims, such release must be executed, and all revocation periods shall have expired within sixty (60) days after the Termination Date; failing which such payment or benefit shall be forfeited. If such payment or benefit constitutes Non-Exempt Deferred Compensation, and if such 60-day period begins in one calendar year and ends in the next calendar year, the payment or benefit shall not be made or commence before the second such calendar year, even if the release becomes irrevocable in the first such calendar year.

9.6 Timing of Reimbursements and In-kind Benefits. If Executive is entitled to be paid or reimbursed for any taxable expenses under this Agreement and such payments or reimbursements are includible in Executive’s federal gross taxable income, the amount of such expenses reimbursable in any one calendar year shall not affect the amount reimbursable in any other calendar year, the reimbursement of an eligible expense must be made no later than December 31 of the year after the year in which the expense was incurred, and such right to reimbursement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

9.7 Permitted Acceleration. The Company shall have the sole authority to make any accelerated distribution permissible under Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4) to Executive of deferred amounts, provided that such distribution meets the requirements of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4).

EXHIBIT A

GENERAL RELEASE

I, Xxxxx X. Xxxxxx, in consideration of the severance payments to be paid to me pursuant to Section 5 of the Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated as of April 1, 2018, between EVO Investco, LLC (the “Company”) and me (the “Agreement”), do hereby release and forever discharge as of the date hereof the Company and its affiliates and all present, former and future managers, members, owners, directors, officers, employees, agents, insurers, employee benefit plans and fiduciaries, trustees, successors and assigns of the Company and its affiliates and direct or indirect owners (collectively, the “Released Parties”) to the extent provided below (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. Terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given to them in the Agreement.

1. I understand that any payments or benefits paid or granted to me under Section 5 of the Agreement represent, in part, consideration for signing this General Release and are not salary, wages or benefits to which I was already entitled. I understand and agree that I will not receive certain of the payments and benefits specified in Section 5 of the Agreement unless I execute this General Release and do not revoke this General Release within the time period permitted hereafter. Such payments and benefits will not be considered compensation for purposes of any employee benefit plan, program, policy or arrangement maintained or hereafter established by the Company or its affiliates.

2. Except as provided in paragraphs 4 and 5 below and except for the provisions of the Agreement which expressly survive the termination of my employment with the Company, I knowingly and voluntarily (for myself, my heirs, executors, administrators and assigns) release and forever discharge the Company and the other Released Parties from any and all claims, suits, controversies, actions, causes of action, cross-claims, counter-claims, demands, debts, compensatory damages, liquidated damages, punitive or exemplary damages, other damages, claims for costs and attorneys’ fees, or liabilities of any nature whatsoever in law and in equity, both past and present (through the date that this General Release becomes effective and enforceable) and whether known or unknown, suspected, or claimed against the Company or any of the Released Parties which I, my spouse, or any of my heirs, executors, administrators or assigns, may have, which arise out of or are connected with my employment with, or my separation or termination from, the Company (including, but not limited to, any allegation, claim or violation, arising under any of the following laws, as amended from time to time: Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; the Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (including the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act); the Equal Pay Act of 1963; the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; the Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974; any applicable Executive Order Programs; the Fair Labor Standards Act; the Georgia Age Discrimination Act; the Georgia Equal Employment of Persons with Disabilities Code; the Georgia Sex Discrimination in Employment Act; the Code of Ordinances for each and every Georgia City and/or County; or under any other federal, state or local civil or human rights law, or under any other local, state, or federal law, regulation or ordinance; or under any public policy,

contract or tort, or under common law; or arising under any policies, practices or procedures of the Company; or any claim for wrongful discharge, breach of contract, infliction of emotional distress, defamation; or any claim for costs, fees, or other expenses, including attorneys’ fees incurred in these matters) (all of the foregoing collectively referred to herein as the “Claims”).

3. I represent that I have made no assignment or transfer of any right, claim, demand, cause of action, or other matter covered by paragraph 2 above.

4. I agree that this General Release does not waive or release any rights or claims that I may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 which arise after the date I execute this General Release. I acknowledge and agree that my separation from employment with the Company shall not serve as the basis for any claim or action (including, without limitation, any claim under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967).

5. I agree that I hereby waive all rights to xxx 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, I further acknowledge that I am not waiving and am 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; provided, however, that I disclaim and waive any right to share or participate in any monetary award resulting from the prosecution of such charge or investigation or proceeding, with the exception of any right to receive an award for information provided to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Additionally, I am not waiving (i) any right to the Accrued Benefits or any severance benefits to which I am entitled under the Agreement, (ii) any claim relating to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage or any right of indemnification under the Company’s organizational documents or otherwise, or (iii) my rights as an equity or security holder in the Company or its affiliates.

6. In signing this General Release, I acknowledge and intend that it shall be effective as a bar to each and every one of the Claims hereinabove mentioned or implied. I expressly consent 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. I acknowledge and agree 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. I further agree that in the event I should bring a Claim seeking damages against the Company, or in the event I should seek to recover against the Company in any Claim brought by a governmental agency on my behalf, this General Release shall serve as a complete defense to such Claims to the maximum extent permitted by law. I further agree that I am not aware of any pending claim of the type described in paragraph 2 above as of the execution of this General Release.

7. I agree 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 myself of any improper or unlawful conduct.

8. I agree that if I violate this General Release by suing the Company or the other Released Parties, I will pay all costs and expenses of defending against the suit incurred by the Released Parties, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.

9. I agree that this General Release and the Agreement are confidential and agree not to disclose any information regarding the terms of this General Release or the Agreement, except to my immediate family and any tax, legal or other counsel I have consulted regarding the meaning or effect hereof or as required by law, and I will instruct each of the foregoing not to disclose the same to anyone.

10. Nothing contained in this General Release limits my ability to file a charge or complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the National Labor Relations Board, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), or any other federal, state or local governmental agency or commission (collectively, “Government Agencies”), or prevents me from providing truthful testimony in response to a lawfully issued subpoena or court order. Further, this General Release does not limit my 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.

11. I hereby acknowledge that Sections 4, 5, 6, 9 and 10 of the Agreement shall survive my execution of this General Release.

12. I represent that I am not aware of any claim by me other than the claims that are released by this General Release. I acknowledge that I may hereafter discover claims or facts in addition to or different than those which I now know or believe to exist with respect to the subject matter of the release set forth in paragraph 2 above and which, if known or suspected at the time of entering into this General Release, may have materially affected this General Release and my decision to enter into it. This General Release shall nevertheless be and remain effective in all respects, notwithstanding such different or additional claims or facts, or the discovery thereof.

13. 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.

14. 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.
