RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
UNDER THE
SNAP ONE HOLDINGS CORP.
2021 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
Pursuant to the Restricted Stock Unit Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) delivered to the Participant (as defined in the Grant Notice), and subject to the terms of this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (this “Restricted Stock Unit Agreement”) and the Snap One Holdings Corp. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, as it may be amended and restated from time to time (the “Plan”), the Company and the Participant agree as follows.  Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Plan. 
1.Grant of Restricted Stock Units.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Plan, the Company hereby grants to the Participant the number of Restricted Stock Units provided in the Grant Notice (with each Restricted Stock Unit representing an unfunded, unsecured right to receive one share of Common Stock).  The Company may make one or more additional grants of Restricted Stock Units to the Participant under this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement by providing the Participant with a new grant notice, which may also include any terms and conditions differing from this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement to the extent provided therein.  The Company reserves all rights with respect to the granting of additional Restricted Stock Units hereunder and makes no implied promise to grant additional Restricted Stock Units. 
2.Vesting.  Subject to the conditions contained herein and in the Plan, the Restricted Stock Units shall vest as provided in the Grant Notice. 
3.Settlement of Restricted Stock Units.  The Company will deliver to the Participant, without charge, as soon as reasonably practicable (and, in any event, within thirty (30) days) following the applicable Settlement Date, one share of Common Stock for each Restricted Stock Unit (as adjusted under the Plan, as applicable) which becomes vested hereunder and such vested Restricted Stock Unit shall be cancelled upon such delivery.  The Company shall either (a) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Participant a certificate or certificates therefor, registered in the Participant’s name or (b) cause such shares of Common Stock to be credited to the Participant’s account at the third party plan administrator.  Notwithstanding anything in this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall have no obligation to issue or transfer any shares of Common Stock as contemplated by this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement unless and until such issuance or transfer complies with all relevant provisions of law and the requirements of any stock exchange on which the Company’s shares of Common Stock are listed for trading. 
4.Treatment of Restricted Stock Units Upon Termination.  
(a)Except as otherwise set forth in Section 4(b) through Section 4(d) below, in the event of the Participant’s Termination, all vesting with respect to the Restricted Stock Units shall cease and any then-unvested Restricted Stock Units shall be immediately forfeited for no consideration upon the Participant’s Termination. 
(b) In the case of a Termination as a result of the Participant’s death, unvested Restricted Stock Units will remain outstanding for one (1) month following the date of such Termination, but shall be eligible to vest only to the extent the Committee determines, during such one (1) month period, to accelerate the vesting of such unvested Restricted Stock Units, and if the Committee fails to make such determination, the unvested Restricted Stock Units will terminate without further action at the end of such period.
        



        4

(c)Solely to the extent that the Participant participates in or is subject to a Severance Arrangement, in the event such Participant incurs a Qualifying Termination, vesting of unvested Restricted Stock Units shall immediately accelerate upon such Qualifying Termination (subject to the Participant’s execution and non-revocation of a release of claims in accordance with the terms of the applicable Severance Arrangement).
(d)In the case of a Termination as a result of a Qualifying Retirement, the Restricted Stock Units shall continue to vest, notwithstanding such Termination, in accordance with the original vesting schedule set forth in the Grant Notice so long as the Participant has not engaged in any Detrimental Activity prior to any applicable vesting date; provided, however, that unvested Restricted Stock Units shall accelerate in full upon any Change in Control prior to the applicable vesting date. In the event of a Detrimental Activity, the terms set forth in Section 12(v) of the Plan shall apply. 
5.Definitions. 
(e)The term “Company” as used in this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement with reference to service shall include the Company and its Subsidiaries. 
(f)Whenever the word “Participant” is used in any provision of this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement under circumstances where the provision should logically be construed to apply to the executors, the administrators, or the person or persons to whom the Restricted Stock Units may be transferred in accordance with Section 12(b) of the Plan, the word “Participant” shall be deemed to include such person or person.
(g)The term  “Qualifying Retirement” means the Participant’s Termination by the Participant following the date on which (i) the Participant attained the age of 62 years old and (ii) the number of completed years of the Participant’s employment with the Service Recipient is at least 10, but only to the extent the Participant provided the Service Recipient with at least six (6) months’ advanced written notice of such Termination and the Participant remained in good standing up to the date of the Termination. 
(d)    The term “Qualifying Termination” means (i) if the Participant is a participant in the Severance Plan, a “Covered Termination” (as defined in the Severance Plan), or (ii) if the Participant is party to an Employment Agreement, a “Covered Termination” (as defined in the Employment Agreement). 
(e)     The term “Settlement Date” means, with respect to any Restricted Stock Unit, the date upon which such Restricted Stock Unit vests, or in the case of any Restricted Stock Unit that vests on or following any Termination pursuant to Section 4(d) hereof, the earlier to occur of the original vesting date upon which such Restricted Stock Unit would otherwise have vested (disregarding any such Termination) or the date of a Change in Control.  
 (f)    The term “Severance Arrangement” means (i) if the Participant is a participant of the Snap One Holdings Corp. Change in Control Employee Severance Plan (the “Severance Plan”) as of the date hereof or at the time of Termination, the Severance Plan, or (ii) if the Participant is party to an employment agreement as of the date hereof with the Service Recipient that provides for equity acceleration benefits upon a Qualifying Termination (an “Employment Agreement”), such Employment Agreement.

Subject to any dividend equivalent payments to be provided to the Participant in accordance with the Grant Notice and Section 12(c)(iii) of the Plan, the Participant or a Permitted Transferee of the Restricted Stock Units shall have no rights as a shareholder with respect to any share of Common Stock underlying a Restricted Stock Unit unless and until the Participant shall have become the holder of record or the beneficial owner of such share of Common Stock, and no adjustment shall be made for dividends or distributions or other rights in respect of such share of Common Stock for which the record date is prior to the date upon which the Participant shall become the holder of record or the beneficial owner thereof.  
8.Tax Withholding.  The provisions of Section 12(d) of the Plan are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.
