### SUMMARY OF THE INCENTIVE PLAN
The following is a summary of the material features of the Incentive Plan (as amended by the Incentive Plan Amendment) and its operation. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Incentive Plan itself. A copy of the amended and restated Incentive Plan that includes the Incentive Plan Amendment is attached to this proxy statement as Appendix B . Appendix B shows the Incentive Plan (as amended by the Incentive Plan Amendment), with deletions indicated by strikeouts and additions indicated by underlining .

#### Purpose
The purposes of the Incentive Plan are to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility, to provide incentives to individuals who perform services to Align and to promote the success of Align’s business.

#### Eligibility
The Incentive Plan provides that stock options, restricted stock, RSUs, performance shares, performance units, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), and other stock or cash awards (each, an “Award” under this summary of the Incentive Plan) may be granted to employees of Align and its affiliates (including Align’s officers), members of the Board, and consultants of Align or any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Align. However, incentive stock options may be granted only to employees of Align or any parent or subsidiary of Align. Generally, an affiliate refers to any corporation or other entity controlling, controlled by, or in common control with Align.

The Plan Administrator (as defined below) will determine which eligible persons will be granted Awards. As of February 28, 2025, approximately 8,908 employees of ours or our affiliates (including four officers) and nine non-employee members of our Board were eligible to participate in the Incentive Plan. We do not grant Awards under the Incentive Plan to service providers who are not employees, other than members of our Board. Accordingly, no consultants of ours or any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of ours are eligible to participate in the Incentive Plan.
