RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Executive currently serves as the Managing Director of Acquisitions for the Company;

WHEREAS, subject to the Executive’s appointment by the Company’s Board of Directors as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and, provided that the Executive remains continuously employed until the Effective Date, the Company and the Executive desire to enter into this Agreement to set forth the term and conditions of the employment relationship with the Company from and after the Effective Date; and

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

1.Term. The term of employment under this Agreement shall be for an initial period beginning on the Effective Date and ending on March 7, 2025 (the “Initial Termination Date”), unless sooner terminated as hereinafter set forth. If not previously terminated, the Employment Period shall automatically renew for additional one-year periods on the Initial Termination Date and on each anniversary of the Initial Termination Date thereafter, unless no later than thirty (30) days prior to the end of the otherwise applicable Employment Period, either the Company or the Executive gives written notice of nonrenewal to the other, in which case, this Agreement will terminate at the end of the then-applicable Employment Period. The period during which the Executive is employed by the Company under the terms of this Agreement (including any renewal or extension) is hereinafter referred to as the “Employment Period.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive’s employment with the Company is and shall continue on an “at will” basis, subject to the provisions of Section 6 hereof.

2.Position and Duties. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall serve as the Chief Financial Officer of the Company. In such capacity, the Executive shall report directly to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the “CEO”). During the Employment Period, the Executive shall have the duties, responsibilities and authority as shall be consistent with the Executive’s position, and such other duties, responsibilities and authority consistent with the Executive’s position as may be assigned to the Executive from time to time by the CEO. The Executive shall, if requested by the CEO or the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), also serve as an officer or director of any affiliate of the Company for no additional

|||

compensation. The Executive shall devote substantially all of the Executive’s business time and efforts to the performance of the Executive’s duties hereunder and the advancement of the business and affairs of the Company, provided that in no event shall this sentence prohibit the Executive from creating and managing his personal and family investments or participating in charitable activities, so long as such personal or family investments and charitable activities (i) do not materially interfere with the Executive’s duties under this Agreement and (ii) comply with the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and other policies of the Company as in effect from time to time. The Executive may not serve on any other outside boards of directors unless he obtains the prior written approval of the Board, provided that the Executive agrees to resign any such outside board service in the event the Board or CEO reasonably determines that such service materially interferes with the Executive’s duties under this Agreement.

3.Compensation and Benefits.

(a)Base Salary. As of the Effective Date, the Company shall pay the Executive a base salary at the rate of $420,000 per calendar year (the “Base Salary”), which shall be payable in accordance with the normal payroll procedures of the Company in effect from time to time. The Base Salary shall be reviewed by the CEO and Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) no less frequently than annually and may be increased (but not decreased) in the discretion of the Committee, after considering the recommendation of the CEO. Any such adjusted Base Salary shall constitute the “Base Salary” for purposes of this Agreement.

(b)Incentive and Bonus Compensation. For each calendar year ending during the Employment Period, the Executive shall be eligible to earn a performance bonus (the “Annual Bonus”) targeted at 70% of the Executive’s Base Salary (the “Target Bonus”) under the Company’s existing and future bonus and equity incentive plans or other incentive compensation programs for similarly situated executives of the Company, to the extent that the Executive is qualified to participate in any such plan under the generally applicable provisions thereof in effect from time to time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive acknowledges and agrees that eligibility to participate in such plans and programs is not a guarantee of participation in or of the receipt of any award, payment or other compensation under such plans and programs. The actual amount of any Annual Bonus shall be determined by the Board or the Committee (as applicable) in its sole discretion, based on the achievement of individual and/or Company performance goals as determined by the Board or the Committee (as applicable) in its sole discretion. The payment of any Annual Bonus, to the extent any Annual Bonus becomes payable, will be made on the date on which annual bonuses are paid generally to similarly situated executives, but in no event later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such Annual Bonus was earned. Except as provided in Section 6, payment of the Annual Bonus shall be subject to and conditioned upon the Executive’s continued employment through the applicable payment date.

(c)Annual Long-Term Incentive Awards. For each calendar year ending during the Employment Period, the Executive shall be eligible to receive an annual equity-based compensation award as determined by the Board or the Committee (as applicable) from time to time (in any case, an “Annual LTI Award”). The Board or the Committee (as applicable) shall

determine in its sole discretion the grant timing, amount, form(s) and mix, and such other terms and conditions, applicable to any such Annual LTI Award; provided, however, that, the target aggregate value of any such award shall be not less than $520,000.

(d)Benefits. The Executive shall be eligible to participate in all employee benefit and insurance plans sponsored or maintained by the Company for similarly situated executives of the Company (including any savings, retirement, life, health and disability plans), to the extent that the Executive is qualified to participate in any such plan under the generally applicable provisions thereof in effect from time to time.

4.Expenses. The Company shall pay or reimburse the Executive for reasonable expenses incurred or paid by the Executive in the performance of the Executive’s duties hereunder in accordance with the generally applicable policies and procedures of the Company, as in effect from time to time and subject to the terms and conditions thereof.

5.Clawback/Recoupment. The compensation payable hereunder shall be subject to (i) any clawback or recoupment policy of the Company required in order to comply with applicable law, including the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) any clawback or recoupment policy of the Company approved by the Board or Committee which applies to the Company’s senior executives. The Company and the Executive acknowledge that this Section 5 is not intended to limit any clawback and/or disgorgement of such compensation pursuant to Section 304 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002.

6.Termination of Employment.

(a)Permitted Terminations. The Executive’s employment may be terminated by either the Executive or the Company at any time and for any or no reason, subject to the following:

(i)Death. The Executive’s employment shall terminate automatically upon the Executive’s death.

(ii)Disability. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment due to the Executive’s Disability (as defined below) while such Disability exists. The Executive agrees that in the event of any question as to the existence, extent or potentiality of the Executive’s Disability upon which the Company and the Executive cannot agree, such question shall be resolved by a qualified, independent physician mutually agreed to by the Company and the Executive, with the cost of such physician to be paid by the Company. The written medical opinion of such physician shall be conclusive and binding upon each of the parties hereto as to whether a Disability exists and the date when such Disability arose. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean that the Executive has a disability due to illness or injury which is expected to be permanent in nature and which prevents the Executive from performing the material duties required by the Executive’s regular occupation.

(iii)By the Company. The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment at any time for Cause or without Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean (A) the Executive’s continued failure to substantially perform the Executive’s duties with the Company (other than any such failure resulting from the Executive’s incapacity due to physical or mental illness or a legally protected leave of absence); (B) the Executive’s conviction of, or entering into a plea of either guilty or nolo contendere to, any felony, including, but not limited to, a felony involving moral turpitude, embezzlement, fraud, misappropriation, theft or similar act that occurred during or in the course of the Executive’s employment with the Company; (C) the Executive’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or dishonesty in the performance of the Executive’s duties with the Company, in each case that is reasonably likely to have a material adverse impact on the Company; or (D) the Executive’s failure to materially comply with the Company’s written policies applicable to the Executive as in effect from time to time. Except for an act, failure or misconduct which, by its nature, cannot reasonably be expected to be cured, as determined by the Board after reasonable consultation with the Executive, or for a termination under the foregoing clause (B), the Executive shall have thirty (30) days from the delivery of a written notice by the Company within which to cure any acts constituting Cause, which notice shall detail the specific act or acts that serve as the basis for the termination for Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, an act, or failure to act, shall not be deemed to be “willful” unless the Company reasonably and in good faith determines it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in bad faith or without a reasonable belief that the action or omission was in the best interests of the Company.

(iv)By the Executive. The Executive may terminate the Executive’s employment for any reason (including for Good Reason (as defined below)) or for no reason. If the Executive terminates the Executive’s employment without Good Reason, then the Executive shall provide written notice to the Company at least sixty (60) days prior to the Date of Termination (as defined below). For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean without the Executive’s express written consent, (A) (i) the assignment to Executive of any duties inconsistent in any substantially adverse respect with Executive’s position, authority or responsibilities as in effect during the ninety (90)-day period immediately preceding the date of the consummation of a Change in Control (including, without limitation and as applicable, the Company ceasing to be a public company or ceasing to be traded on the New York Stock Exchange (or similar exchange) following a Change in Control) or (ii) any other substantial adverse change in such position (including titles), authority or responsibilities either following a Change in Control or otherwise; (B) a material reduction in the Executive’s Base Salary, Target Bonus, annual long-term incentive opportunity (whether cash or equity compensation) or aggregate employee benefits, other than (i) an inadvertent failure remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of notice thereof given by the Executive, (ii) with respect to Base Salary, a reduction that does not exceed ten percent (10%) and that is generally applicable to all senior executives of the Company, (iii) with respect to the Target Bonus and Annual LTI Award, a change in the allocation or elements of such incentive compensation programs that results in an incentive compensation opportunity that is substantially comparable in the aggregate, or (iv) with respect to aggregate employee benefits only, any such failure resulting from an across-the-board reduction in employee benefits applicable to all similarly situated employees of the Company generally; (C) any failure by the Company to obtain the assumption and agreement to perform

this Agreement by a successor to the Company; (D) the relocation of the Executive’s principal place of employment by more than twenty-five (25) miles; or (E) the material breach of this Agreement by the Company (or any successor to the Company). The Executive shall only have Good Reason if (x) the Executive has provided written notice to the Board of any of the foregoing conditions within ninety (90) days after the initial existence of the condition, (y) the Company does not cure such condition within thirty (30) days following receipt of such notice, and (z) if such condition is not cured within such thirty (30) day period, the Executive actually terminates employment within sixty (60) days after the Executive provided the written notice to the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) the Executive’s mental or physical incapacity following the occurrence of an event described above in clauses (A), (B), (C) or (D) shall not affect the Executive’s ability to terminate employment for Good Reason and (y) the Executive’s death following delivery of a notice of the existence of Good Reason shall not affect the Executive’s estate’s entitlement to the severance benefits provided hereunder upon a termination of employment for Good Reason.

(b)Notice of Termination. Any termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company or the Executive (other than due to the Executive’s death) shall be communicated by a written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” shall mean a notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, if any, and shall, in the case of a termination for Cause or for Good Reason, set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for such termination of the Executive’s employment. Termination of the Executive’s employment shall take effect on the Date of Termination.

(c)Date of Termination. For purposes of this Agreement, “Date of Termination” means (i) if the Executive’s employment is terminated due to the Executive’s death, the date of the Executive’s death; (ii) if the Executive’s employment is terminated due to the Executive’s Disability, thirty (30) days after Notice of Termination; or (iii) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause or without Cause, or by the Executive for any reason, the date specified in the Notice of Termination. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits upon or following a termination of employment that are considered deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively “Section 409A”), references to the Executive’s termination of employment (and corollary terms) with the Company shall be construed to refer to the Executive’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(h)) with the Company.

(d)Compensation Upon Termination of Employment by the Company Without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason. If the Company terminates the Executive’s employment without Cause (including a termination of employment due to nonrenewal of this Agreement by the Company in accordance with Section 1 above) or if the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, in either case, other than during the Change in Control Protection Period (as defined below), the Company shall pay or provide to the Executive within

thirty (30) days after the Date of Termination (or such earlier date as may be required by applicable law) (i) the Executive’s Base Salary due through the Date of Termination, (ii) any amounts or benefits owing to the Executive as of the Date of Termination under the then applicable benefit plans of the Company, at the time such amounts or benefits are due, and (iii) any amounts owing to the Executive for reimbursement of expenses properly incurred by the Executive prior to the Date of Termination, which shall be subject to and paid in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement policy (collectively, the “Accrued Amounts”). Subject to the Executive’s material compliance with the restrictive covenants in Section 10 hereof and the Executive’s timely execution and non-revocation of the Release (as defined below), the Company shall also pay to the Executive (x) an amount equal to one (1.0) times the sum of (A) the Executive’s Base Salary in effect as of the Date of Termination and (B) the Executive’s Target Bonus in effect as of the Date of Termination, payable in a cash lump sum within ten (10) days following the Release Effective Date (as defined below), and (y) an amount equal to the pro-rata portion of the Annual Bonus that would have otherwise been earned by the Executive for the fiscal year during which the Date of Termination occurs, if any, determined in accordance with Section 3(b)(i) above and pro-rated based on the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company during such year, payable in a lump sum at the time the Company pays bonuses to similarly situated executives of the Company, but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Date of Termination occurs (collectively, the “Severance Amount”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of the Severance Amount could be paid to the Executive during the subsequent taxable year of the Executive rather than the Executive’s taxable year in which the Date of Termination occurs based on when the Executive executes and delivers the Release to the Company, then, to the extent that such portion of the Severance Amount constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, such portion of the Severance Amount shall not be paid earlier than the first business day of the later of such taxable years. In addition, subject to the Executive’s compliance with the restrictive covenants in Section 10 hereof and the Executive’s timely execution and non-revocation of the Release, the Company shall reimburse the Executive on a monthly basis for the Executive’s monthly premium payments for health care coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”) for the Executive and the Executive’s eligible dependents for a period of eighteen (18) months, provided that the Executive and, if applicable, the Executive’s eligible dependents are currently enrolled in the applicable plan(s) of the Company at the time of the Executive’s termination, that the Executive timely elects to continue the Executive’s coverage under COBRA and substantiates the monthly expense; provided, however, that the Company’s obligation to reimburse the Executive for such premiums shall cease on the date the Executive is no longer eligible to receive COBRA coverage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) if any plan pursuant to which such COBRA benefits are provided is not, or ceases prior to the expiration of the eighteen (18)-month period to be, exempt from the application of Section 409A under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(a)(5), or (B) the Company is otherwise unable to continue to cover the Executive under its group health plans without incurring penalties (including without limitation, pursuant to Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act or the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act), then, in either case, an amount equal to each remaining COBRA reimbursement shall thereafter be paid to the Executive in substantially equal monthly installments over such period (or the remaining portion thereof). The Executive must advise the

Company as soon as the Executive becomes eligible for health care coverage from a third party (e.g., spouse’s employer, the Executive’s subsequent employer, or any other party with a relationship with the Executive). In the case of each of the Executive’s then-outstanding equity awards (including any Annual LTI Award), the vesting of each award will be determined in accordance with the terms of the applicable equity award agreement (in any case, an “Award Agreement”).

(e)Compensation Upon Termination of Employment by the Executive for Good Reason or by the Company Without Cause in Connection with a Change in Control. Notwithstanding Section 6(d), if the Executive terminates the Executive’s employment for Good Reason or if the Company terminates the Executive’s employment without Cause (including a termination of employment due to nonrenewal of this Agreement by the Company in accordance with Section 1 above), in each case immediately prior to, on, or within twenty-four (24) months following a Change in Control (such period, the “Change in Control Protection Period”), the Company shall: (A) pay or provide to the Executive the Accrued Amounts, and (B) subject to the Executive’s material compliance with the restrictive covenants in Section 10 hereof and the Executive’s timely execution and non-revocation of the Release, pay to the Executive (i) an amount equal to one and one-half (1.5) times the sum of (x) the Executive’s Base Salary in effect as of the Date of Termination and (y) the Executive’s Target Bonus in effect as of the Date of Termination, payable in a cash lump sum within ten (10) days following the Release Effective Date, and (ii) an amount equal to the pro-rata portion of the Annual Bonus that would have otherwise been earned by the Executive for the fiscal year during which the Date of Termination occurs, if any, determined in accordance with Section 3(b)(i) above and pro-rated based on the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company during such year, payable in a lump sum at the time the Company pays bonuses to similarly situated executives of the Company, but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Date of Termination occurs (collectively, the “Change in Control Severance Amount”). In the case of each of the Executive’s then-outstanding equity awards (including any Annual LTI Award), the vesting of each award will be determined in accordance with the terms of the applicable Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of the Change in Control Severance Amount could be paid to the Executive during the subsequent taxable year of the Executive rather than the Executive’s taxable year in which the Date of Termination occurs based on when the Executive executes and delivers the Release to the Company, then, to the extent that such portion of the Change in Control Severance Amount constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, such portion of the Change in Control Severance Amount shall not be paid earlier than the first business day of the later of such taxable years. In addition, subject to the Executive’s compliance with the restrictive covenants in Section 10 hereof and the Executive’s timely execution and non-revocation of the Release, the Company shall reimburse the Executive on a monthly basis for the Executive’s monthly premium payments for health care coverage under COBRA for the Executive and the Executive’s eligible dependents for a period of eighteen (18) months, provided that the Executive and, if applicable, the Executive’s eligible dependents are currently enrolled in the applicable plan(s) of the Company at the time of the Executive’s termination, that the Executive timely elects to continue the Executive’s coverage under COBRA and substantiates the monthly expense; provided, however, that the Company’s obligation to reimburse the Executive for such

premiums shall cease on the date the Executive is no longer eligible to receive COBRA coverage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) if any plan pursuant to which such COBRA benefits are provided is not, or ceases prior to the expiration of the eighteen (18)-month period to be, exempt from the application of Section 409A under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(a)(5), or (B) the Company is otherwise unable to continue to cover the Executive under its group health plans without incurring penalties (including without limitation, pursuant to Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act or the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act), then, in either case, an amount equal to each remaining COBRA reimbursement shall thereafter be paid to the Executive in substantially equal monthly installments over such period (or the remaining portion thereof). The Executive must advise the Company as soon as the Executive becomes eligible for health care coverage from a third party (e.g., spouse’s employer, the Executive’s subsequent employer, or any other party with a relationship with the Executive).

(f)Compensation Upon Termination by the Company for Cause, Resignation by the Executive without Good Reason, or Termination due to Death or Disability.

(i)If the Executive’s employment is terminated (x) by the Company for Cause, (y) by the Executive due to a nonrenewal of the Agreement by the Executive or by the Executive other than for Good Reason or (z) other than due to his death or Disability, the Company shall have no further obligation to the Executive hereunder, except the obligation to pay or provide to the Executive (or the Executive’s estate or beneficiaries, as applicable) the Accrued Amounts.

(ii)If the Executive’s employment is terminated due to the Executive’s death or Disability, the Company shall have no further obligation to the Executive hereunder, except the obligation to pay or provide to the Executive (or the Executive’s estate or beneficiaries, as applicable) the Accrued Amounts and the COBRA reimbursement described herein. If the Executive’s employment is terminated due to the Executive’s death or Disability, the Company shall reimburse the Executive (or the Executive’s eligible dependents in the event of Executive’s death) on a monthly basis for the monthly premium payments for group health plan coverage under COBRA for the Executive and/or the Executive’s eligible dependents for a period of eighteen (18) months, provided that the Executive and, if applicable, the Executive’s eligible dependents are currently enrolled in the applicable plan(s) of the Company at the time of the Executive’s termination due to the Executive’s death or Disability, that the Executive and/or the Executive’s eligible dependents timely elect to continue the existing group health plan coverage under COBRA and substantiates the monthly expense; provided, however, that the Company’s obligation to reimburse the Executive and/or the Executive’s eligible dependents for such premiums shall cease on the date the Executive and/or the Executive’s eligible dependents are no longer eligible to receive COBRA coverage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) if any plan pursuant to which such COBRA benefits are provided is not, or ceases prior to the expiration of the eighteen (18)-month period to be, exempt from the application of Section 409A under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(a)(5), or (B) the Company is otherwise unable to continue to cover the Executive under its group health plans without incurring penalties (including without limitation, pursuant to Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act or the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act), then, in either case, an amount equal to each

remaining COBRA reimbursement shall thereafter be paid to the Executive in substantially equal monthly installments over such period (or the remaining portion thereof). The Executive or the Executive’s eligible dependents must advise the Company as soon as the Executive and/or the Executive’s eligible dependents become eligible for health care coverage from a third party (e.g., spouse’s employer, the Executive’s subsequent employer, or any other party with a relationship with the Executive).

(g)Resignation. Upon termination of the Executive’s employment hereunder for any reason, unless otherwise specified in a written agreement between the Executive and the Company, the Executive shall be deemed to have resigned from all positions that the Executive holds as an officer or member of the Board (or a committee thereof) of the Company or any of its affiliates.

7.Payments Contingent Upon Release Agreement. As a condition to receiving the Severance Amount or the Change in Control Severance Amount, as applicable, and the reimbursement of COBRA premiums under this Agreement, the Executive will timely execute a release of claims substantially in the form of the release attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Release”). Within three business days after the Date of Termination, the Company shall deliver to the Executive the Release for the Executive to execute. The Executive will forfeit all rights to receive the Severance Amount or the Change in Control Severance Amount, as applicable, and the reimbursement of COBRA premiums under this Agreement unless, within sixty (60) days after delivery of the Release by the Company to the Executive, the Executive executes and delivers the Release to the Company and such Release has become irrevocable by virtue of the expiration of the revocation period specified therein without the Release having been revoked (the first such date, the “Release Effective Date”). The Company’s obligation to pay the Severance Amount or the Change in Control Severance Amount, as applicable, or to reimburse COBRA premiums under this Agreement, is subject to the Release becoming effective as described above, and if the Release does not become effective, then the Company shall have no obligation to make such payments or reimbursements. Any reimbursements of COBRA premiums under this Agreement that would otherwise have become due prior to the Release Effective Date shall be paid in a cash lump sum within ten (10) days following the Release Effective Date; provided, that if any reimbursements of COBRA premiums under this Agreement could be paid to the Executive during a different taxable year of the Executive than the Executive’s taxable year in which Date of Termination occurs based on when the Executive executes and delivers the Release to the Company, then, to the extent that the reimbursements constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, the reimbursement amounts shall not be paid earlier than the first business day of the later of such taxable years. In the event the Executive materially breaches one or more of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 10 hereof, the Executive shall forfeit the Executive’s right to receive the Severance Amount or the Change in Control Severance Amount, as applicable, and the reimbursement of COBRA premiums under this Agreement, and, to the extent such amounts have been paid to the Executive, shall repay to the Company the after-tax amount of any such previously paid amounts.

8.Section 280G.

(a)The Executive shall bear all expense of, and be solely responsible for, any Excise Tax (as defined below) imposed on the Executive; provided, however, in the event that the Accounting Firm (as defined below) determines that receipt of all payments or distributions in the nature of compensation to or for the benefit of the Executive, whether paid or payable pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise (the “Payments”) would subject the Executive to tax under Section 4999 of the Code, then, after taking into account any reduction in the Payments provided by reason of Section 280G of the Code in any other plan, arrangement or agreement, the Accounting Firm shall determine whether the Payments shall be reduced to the Reduced Amount (as defined below). The Payments shall be reduced to the Reduced Amount only if the Accounting Firm determines that the Net After-Tax Receipt (as defined below) of unreduced aggregate Payments would be equal to or less than one-hundred percent (100%) of the Net After-Tax Receipt of the Reduced Amount. The provisions of this Section 8 shall supersede and control any conflicting Payments adjustment language in the Parachute Limitations provisions in Section 17 of the Company’s Amended and Restated 2015 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time, or any similar parachute limitations language in any other plan or agreement applicable to Executive.

(b)If the Accounting Firm determines that aggregate Payments should be reduced to the Reduced Amount, the Company shall promptly give the Executive notice to that effect and a copy of the detailed calculation thereof. All determinations made by the Accounting Firm under this Section shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive and shall be made as soon as reasonably practicable and in no event later than five (5) business days following the effective date of the applicable Change in Control, or such later date on which there has been a Payment. The reduction of the Payments, if applicable, shall be made in the following order:

(i)reduction of cash payments, which will occur in reverse chronological order such that the cash payment owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering such excise tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced;

(ii)cancellation of accelerated vesting of equity awards, which will occur in the reverse order of the date of grant for such stock awards (i.e., the vesting of the most recently granted stock awards will be reduced first); and

(iii)reduction of other employee benefits, which will occur in reverse chronological order such that the benefit owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering such excise tax will be the first benefit to be reduced; provided, however, that no reduction of a Payment that is nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be made to the extent that such reduction would result in any other payment or benefit being deemed a substitute (within the meaning of Section 1.409A-3(f) of the Treasury Regulations) for the forfeited amount by reason of such other payment or benefit having a different time or form of payment. With respect to each of clauses (i)-(iii), in the case of any Payments that constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, the reduction will occur first as to amounts that are not deferred. If two or more of the same type of awards are granted on the same date, each award will have their acceleration of vesting reduced on a pro-rata basis. In no event will the Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of Payment

reductions. All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm in implementing the provisions of this Section shall be borne by the Company.

(c)For purposes of determining whether and the extent to which the Payments will be subject to the Excise Tax, (i) no portion of the Payments the receipt or enjoyment of which the Executive shall have waived at such time and in such manner as not to constitute a “payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b) of the Code shall be taken into account, (ii) no portion of the Payments shall be taken into account which, in the opinion of the Accounting Firm, does not constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code (including by reason of Section 280G(b)(4)(A) of the Code) and, in calculating the Excise Tax, no portion of such Payments shall be taken into account which, in the opinion of Accounting Firm, constitutes reasonable compensation for services actually rendered, within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4)(B) of the Code, in excess of the Base Amount (as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) allocable to such reasonable compensation, and (iii) the value of any non-cash benefit or any deferred payment or benefit included in the Payments shall be determined by the Accounting Firm in accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code.

(d)The Company and the Executive shall provide the Accounting Firm access to copies of any books, records, and documents in their possession as reasonably requested by the Accounting Firm, and otherwise cooperate with the Accounting Firm in connection with the preparation and issuance of the determinations and calculations contemplated by this Section 8. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 8, the Accounting Firm may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Code Sections 280G and 4999.

(e)For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Accounting Firm” shall mean a nationally recognized accounting firm, or actuarial, benefits or compensation consulting firm (with experience in performing the calculations regarding the applicability of Code Section 280G and of the tax imposed by Code Section 4999) selected by the Company immediately prior to a Change in Control.

(f)For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Excise Tax” shall mean, collectively, (i) the tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, (ii) any similar tax imposed by state or local law, and (iii) any interest or penalties actually due with respect to any tax described in clause (i) or (ii).

(g)For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Net After-Tax Receipt” shall mean the present value (as determined in accordance with Sections 280G(b)(2)(A)(ii) and 280G(d)(4) of the Code) of a Payment net of all taxes imposed on the Executive with respect thereto under Sections 1 and 4999 of the Code and under applicable state and local laws, determined by applying the highest marginal rate under Section 1 of the Code and under state and local laws which applied to the Executive’s taxable income for the immediately preceding taxable year, or such other rate(s) as the Executive certifies, in the Executive’s sole discretion, as likely to apply to the Executive in the relevant tax year(s).

(h)For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Reduced Amount” shall mean $1.00 less than the greatest amount of Payments that can be paid that would not result in the imposition of the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code.

9.Section 409A.

(a)To the extent applicable, this Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A. For purposes of Section 409A, (i) each “payment” (as defined by Section 409A) made under this Agreement shall be considered a “separate payment,” and (ii) payments shall be deemed exempt from the definition of deferred compensation under Section 409A to the fullest extent possible under (x) the “short-term deferral” exemption of Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(b)(4), and (y) the exemptions of Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(b)(9)-(11), which exemptions are hereby incorporated by reference.

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Company determines that the Executive is a “specified employee” (as defined in Section 409A and as applied according to procedures of the Company and its affiliates) as of the Executive’s separation from service, to the extent any payment under this Agreement that is payable upon or in connection with a separation from service would be a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, no such payment will be made to the Executive during the six-month period following the Executive’s separation from service. If the payment of any such amounts is delayed as a result of the previous sentence, then on the first day of the seventh month following the Executive’s separation from service (or such earlier date upon which such amount can be paid under Section 409A without resulting in a prohibited distribution, including as a result of the Executive’s death), the Company shall pay the Executive a lump-sum amount equal to the cumulative amount that would have otherwise been payable to the Executive during such period.

(c)Any expense reimbursements or in kind benefits under this Agreement that constitute deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A, including, without limitation, that: (i) the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in one taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in any other taxable year; (ii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense shall be made no later than the end of the year after the year in which such expense was incurred; and (iii) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(d)Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the Company determines that any compensation or benefits payable under this Agreement may be subject to Section 409A, the Company shall work in good faith with the Executive to adopt such amendments to this Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Company determines are necessary or appropriate to avoid the imposition of taxes under Section 409A, including without limitation, actions intended to (i) exempt the compensation and benefits payable under this Agreement from Section 409A, and/or (ii) comply with the requirements of

Section 409A. If this Agreement fails to meet the requirements of Section 409A, neither the Company nor any of its affiliates shall have any liability for any tax, penalty or interest imposed on the Executive by Section 409A, and the Executive shall have no recourse against the Company or any of its affiliates for payment of any such tax, penalty, or interest imposed by Section 409A.

10.Restrictive Covenants.

(a)Non-Disparagement. The Executive agrees that the Company’s reputation and goodwill in the marketplace is of utmost importance and value to the Company. The Executive further agrees that during and after the term of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive, other than in the performance of his duties for the Company, will not make, publish or cause to be published any statement or comments that disparage or defame the reputation, character, image, products, or services of the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates, or any of their respective stockholders, partners, members, boards of directors, managers, officers and employees. During and after the term of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the executive officers and Board members of the Company, its subsidiaries and its affiliates, other than in the performance of their duties for the Company, will not make, publish or cause to be published any statement or comments that disparage or defame the reputation, character, image, products, or services of the Executive. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the foregoing prohibitions extend to statements to the news media, the Company’s competitors, vendors, and the Company’s then-current employees. The parties hereto further acknowledge and agree that the foregoing prohibitions shall not be violated by (i) truthful statements by the Executive, the executive officers of the Company or the members of the Board in response to legal process, governmental testimony or filings, or administrative or arbitral proceedings (including, without limitation, depositions in connection with such proceedings) or (ii) the Executive, the executive officers of the Company or the members of the Board rebutting false or misleading statements made by others. The parties hereto further understand and agree that this Section 10(a) is a material provision of this Agreement and that any material and uncured breach of this Section 10(a) shall be a material breach of this Agreement, and that the Company and the Executive, as applicable, would be irreparably harmed by violation of this provision.

(b)Cooperation. The Executive agrees that after the Date of Termination (other than due to a termination for death or Disability), the Executive shall, upon the Company’s reasonable request, make the Executive available at reasonable times, intervals and places for interviews, consultations, internal investigations and/or testimony during which the Executive shall provide to the Company, or its designated attorneys or agents, any and all information then known to the Executive regarding or relating to the Company or the Executive’s activities on behalf of the Company pertaining to the subject matter on which the Executive’s cooperation is sought. The Executive agrees to remain involved for so long as any such matters shall be pending. Any efforts undertaken by the Executive at the Company’s request pursuant to this Section 10(b) shall be at the Company’s expense (and shall be subject to reasonable accommodation for the Executive’s then-current commitments and obligations).

(c)Non-Disclosure.

(i)During the course of the Executive’s employment with the Company, before and after the execution of this Agreement, and as consideration for the restrictive covenants entered into by the Executive herein, the Executive has received and will continue to receive some or all of the Company’s various Trade Secrets (as defined under applicable law) and confidential or proprietary information, which includes the following whether in physical or electronic form: (1) data and compilations of data related to, Business Opportunities (as defined below); (2) computer software, hardware, network and internet technology utilized, modified or enhanced by the Company or by the Executive in furtherance of the Executive’s duties with the Company; (3) compilations of data concerning Company products, services, customers, and end users including but not limited to compilations concerning projected sales, new project timelines, inventory reports, sales, and cost and expense reports; (4) compilations of information about the Company’s employees and independent contracting consultants; (5) the Company’s financial information, including, without limitation, amounts charged to customers and amounts charged to the Company by its vendors, suppliers, and service providers; (6) proposals submitted to the Company’s customers, potential customers, wholesalers, distributors, vendors, suppliers and service providers; (7) the Company’s marketing strategies and compilations of marketing data; (8) compilations of data or information concerning, and communications and agreements with, vendors, suppliers and licensors to the Company and other sources of technology, products, services or components used in the Company’s business; (9) the Company’s research and development records and data; and (10) any summary, extract or analysis of such information together with information that has been received or disclosed to the Company by any third party as to which the Company has an obligation to treat as confidential (collectively, “Confidential Information”). For purposes of this Agreement, “Business Opportunities” means all ideas, concepts or information received or developed (in whatever form) by the Executive or by the Company concerning any business, transaction or potential transaction that constitutes or may constitute an opportunity for the Company to earn a fee or income, specifically including those relationships that were initiated, nourished or developed at the Company’s expense. Confidential Information does not include data or information: (1) which has been voluntarily disclosed to the public by the Company, except where such public disclosure has been made by the Executive without authorization from the Company; (2) which has been independently developed and disclosed by others; or (3) which has otherwise entered the public domain through lawful means.

(ii)All Confidential Information, Trade Secrets, and all physical and electronic embodiments thereof are confidential and are and will remain the sole and exclusive property of the Company. During and after the term of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive agrees that the Executive shall protect any such Confidential Information and Trade Secrets and shall not, except in connection with the performance of the Executive’s remaining duties for the Company, use, disclose or otherwise copy, reproduce, distribute or otherwise disseminate any such Confidential Information or Trade Secrets, or any physical or electronic embodiments thereof, to any third party; provided, however, that the Executive may make disclosures required by a valid order or subpoena issued by a court or administrative agency of competent jurisdiction, in which event the Executive will promptly

notify the Company of such order or subpoena to provide the Company an opportunity to protect its interests. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Executive agrees that after the Executive’s termination of employment with the Company, the Executive shall not disclose to any third party any business developments, investment or business arrangements, negotiations, prospective or existing commercial agreements, transaction or potential transaction that was considered by the Company prior to the Date of Termination from the Company. The Executive further agrees that if the Executive is ever subpoenaed or otherwise required by law to provide any statement or other assistance to a party to a dispute or litigation with the Company, other than the Company, then the Executive shall provide written notice of the circumstances requiring such statement or other assistance, including where applicable a copy of the subpoena or other legal writ, in such a manner and at such a time that allows the Company to timely respond. Nothing herein shall prevent the Executive from cooperating with co-defendants in litigation or with inquiry in a government investigation without a need to obtain prior consent or approval from the Company; provided, however, the Executive shall provide prompt notice of any voluntary giving of oral or written statements to such parties, and provide to the Company a copy of any written statement so given or a summary of any oral statement provided.

(iii)Upon request by the Company and, in any event, upon termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, the Executive will promptly deliver to the Company all property belonging to the Company, including but without limitation, all Confidential Information, Trade Secrets and all electronic and physical embodiments thereof, all Company files, customer lists, management reports, memoranda, research, Company forms, financial data and reports and other documents (including but not limited to all such data and documents in electronic form) supplied to or created by the Executive in connection with the Executive’s employment with the Company (including all copies of the foregoing) in the Executive’s possession or control, and all of the Company’s equipment and other materials in the Executive’s possession or control. The Executive agrees to allow the Company, at its request, to verify return of Company property and documents and information and/or permanent deletion of the same, through inspection of personal computers, personal storage media, third party websites, third party e-mail systems, personal digital assistant devices, cell phones and/or social networking sites on which Company information was stored during the Executive’s employment with the Company.

(iv)Nothing contained herein shall be in derogation or a limitation of the rights of the Company to enforce its rights or the Executive’s duties under the applicable law relating to Trade Secrets.

(v)Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Executive from (A) communicating directly with, cooperating with, or providing information to, reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to or receiving financial awards from any Federal, state or local governmental agency or entity, including but not limited to the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission, the U.S. National Labor Relations Board or any Inspector General, or making other disclosures protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or

regulation; (B) exercising any rights the Executive may have under Section 7 of the U.S. National Labor Relations Act, such as the right to engage in concerted activity, including collective action or discussion concerning wages or working conditions; or (C) discussing or disclosing information about unlawful acts in the workplace, such as harassment or discrimination based on a protected characteristic or any other conduct that the Executive has reason to believe is unlawful. The Executive does not need the prior authorization of the Company to make any such reports or disclosures and the Executive is not required to notify the Company that the Executive has made such reports or disclosures.

(vi)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the parties hereto acknowledge that pursuant to 18 USC § 1833(b), the Executive may not be held liable under any criminal or civil federal or state trade secret law for disclosure of a trade secret: (i) made in confidence to a Federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law or (ii) in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Additionally, the parties hereto acknowledge that if the Executive sues the Company for retaliation based on the reporting of a suspected violation of law, the Executive may disclose a trade secret to the Executive’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, so long as any document containing the trade secret is filed under seal and the Executive does not disclose the trade secret except pursuant to court order.

(d)Non-Solicitation. The Executive agrees that during the course of the Executive’s employment with the Company and for a period of twelve (12) months following the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, with or without Cause, whether upon the initiative of either the Executive or the Company, the Executive will not, on behalf of the Executive or any other individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, association, trust or any other entity or organization (including a government or political subdivision or an agency or instrumentality thereof), directly or by assisting others, solicit, induce, persuade or encourage, or attempt to solicit, induce, persuade or encourage, any individual employed by the Company, with whom the Executive has worked, to terminate such employee’s position with the Company, whether or not such employee is a full-time or temporary employee of the Company and whether or not such employment is pursuant to a written agreement, for a determined period, or at will. The provisions of this Section 10(d) shall only apply to those individuals employed by the Company at the time of solicitation or attempted solicitation. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 10(d) shall not apply to outside advisors or other third-party service providers to the Company.

(e)Acknowledgements. The Executive acknowledges that the Company is in the business of owning, acquiring and leasing restaurant, medical, and retail properties (in each case, as directed by the Board) on a nationwide basis and that the Company makes substantial investments and has established substantial goodwill associated with its business, supplier relationships and marketing programs throughout the United States. The Executive therefore acknowledges and agrees that it is fair and reasonable for the Company to take steps to protect its Confidential Information, Trade Secrets, goodwill, business relationships, employees, economic

advantages, and/or other legitimate business interests from the risk of misappropriation of or harm to its Confidential Information, Trade Secrets, goodwill, business relationships, employees, economic advantages, and/or other legitimate business interests. The Executive acknowledges that any limitations as to time and scope of activity to be restrained are reasonable and do not impose a greater restraint than is necessary to protect Company’s Confidential Information, Trade Secrets, good will, business relationships, employees, economic advantages, and/or other legitimate business interests, and will not prevent the Executive from earning a livelihood.

(f)Survival of Covenants. The provisions and restrictive covenants in this Section 10 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason. The Executive agrees not to challenge the enforceability or scope of the provisions and restrictive covenants in this Section 10. The Executive further agrees to notify all future persons or businesses, with which the Executive becomes affiliated or employed by, of the provisions and restrictions set forth in this Section 10, prior to the commencement of any such affiliation or employment.

(g)Injunctive Relief. The parties hereto acknowledge that if a party breaches or threatens to breach any of the provisions of this Agreement, the breaching party’s actions will cause irreparable harm and damage which cannot be compensated by damages alone. Accordingly, if a party hereto breaches or threatens to breach any of the provisions of this Agreement, the non-breaching party shall be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to any other rights or remedies the party may have. The parties hereto hereby waive the requirement for a bond as a condition to seeking injunctive relief. The existence of any claim or cause of action by a party hereto, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement of the parties’ rights under this Agreement.

11.Entire Agreement. Effective as of the Effective Date, this Agreement supersedes any and all other agreements, either oral or in writing, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof (including severance payments and benefits (other than payments and benefits provided by law or under the Company’s benefit plans in which the Executive participates or under any Award Agreements)), and contains all of the agreements between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof (including severance payments and benefits (other than payments and benefits provided by law or under the Company’s benefit plans in which the Executive participates or under any Award Agreements)).

12.Miscellaneous.

(a)Except for injunctive relief as set forth herein, the parties agree that any dispute between the parties regarding this Agreement or the Executive’s employment shall be submitted to binding arbitration in San Francisco, California in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures of the American Arbitration Association. All disputes shall be resolved by one arbitrator chosen by agreement of the parties in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award the same remedies, damages and costs that a court could award. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding.

(b)This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California (without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof). Subject to Section 12(a) hereof, the Executive agrees that the state and federal courts of California shall have jurisdiction over any litigation between the Executive and the Company regarding this Agreement, and the Executive expressly submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the federal and state courts sitting in San Francisco, California.

(c)This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which, when executed by both parties to this Agreement shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

(d)The failure of either party hereto to enforce any right under this Agreement shall not be construed to be a waiver of that right, or of damages caused thereby, or of any other rights under this Agreement.

(e)This Agreement may not be amended or modified otherwise than by a written agreement executed by the parties hereto or their respective successors and legal representatives.

(f)This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns. This Agreement shall bind any successor of or to the Company, its assets or its businesses (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise), in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be obligated under this Agreement if no succession had taken place. In the case of any transaction in which a successor would not by the foregoing provision or by operation of law be bound by this Agreement, the Company shall require such successor expressly and unconditionally to assume and agree to perform the Company’s obligations under this Agreement, in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place. All rights under this Agreement are personal to the Executive and, without the prior written consent of the Company, shall not be assignable by the Executive otherwise than by shall or the laws of descent and distribution. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable in the event of the Executive’s death or disability by the Executive’s legal representatives, heirs and legatees.

(g)The Executive and the Company acknowledge that, except as may otherwise be provided under any other written agreement between the Executive and the Company, the employment of the Executive by the Company is “at will” and may be terminated by either the Executive or the Company at any time. Nothing contained in the Agreement shall affect such rights to terminate, provided, however, that nothing in this Section 12(g) shall prevent the Executive from receiving any amounts payable on the termination of his service under this Agreement.

(h)Any provision in this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating or affecting the remaining provisions hereof, and any

such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

(i)Notices and all other communications contemplated by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when personally delivered, when given by electronic mail (i.e., e-mail) or when mailed by U.S. registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid or when sent by express U.S. mail or overnight delivery through a national delivery service (or an international delivery service in the case of an address outside the U.S.) with signature required. Notice to the Company shall be directed to the attention of the General Counsel of the Company at his or her Company e-mail address or the address of the Company’s headquarters, and notice to the Executive shall be directed to the Executive at the Executive’s most recent e-mail address or personal residence on file with the Company.

(j)The Company shall deduct from the amounts payable to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement all required withholding amounts and deductions, including but not limited to federal, state and local withholding amounts in accordance all applicable laws and regulations and deductions authorized by the Executive. The Executive shall be solely responsible for and shall pay all taxes associated with the amounts payable under this Agreement.
