 6. Reasons for Termination of Employment. Executive’s employment hereunder may
terminate under the following circumstances: 
 (a) Death. Executive’s employment hereunder will terminate upon his death. 

(b) Disability. If, as a result of Executive’s incapacity due to physical or mental illness, Executive will have been
substantially unable to perform his duties under this Agreement for a continuous period of 180 days, the Company may terminate Executive’s employment as a result of “Disability.” 

(c) Cause. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment for Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, the Company will have
“Cause” to terminate Executive’s employment upon Executive’s: 
 (i) conviction of or plea of no contest to any
felony or any crime involving fraud, embezzlement, or moral turpitude; 
 (ii) attempted commission of, or participation in, a fraud or act
of dishonesty against the Company; 
 (iii) intentional, material violation of any contract or agreement between the Executive and the
Company, of any statutory duty owed to the Company or of any code of ethics or material policies of the Company (including, without limitation, policies relating to sexual harassment or other prohibited discrimination); 

(iv) unauthorized use or disclosure of the Company’s confidential information or trade secrets in violation of Company policy and
procedure; 
 (v) refusal or willful omission, other than due to Disability, to perform any duties required of Executive, which continues
after a period of thirty (30) days following the Executive’s receipt of notice from the Company that it deems such conduct Cause for termination of employment; or 

(vi) gross misconduct. 
 For
purposes of this Section 6(c), no act, or failure to act, by Executive will be considered “willful” if taken or omitted in the good faith belief that the act or omission was in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the
Company. 
 (d) Good Reason. Executive may terminate his employment for “Good Reason” within 90 days after Executive
has actual knowledge of the occurrence, without the written consent of Executive, of one of the following events that has not been cured within 30 days after written notice thereof has been given by Executive to the Company setting forth in
reasonable detail the facts and circumstances of the event; provided that such notice must be given to the Company within 30 days of Executive becoming aware of such condition: 

(i) a material diminution by the Company in Executive’s Base Salary or Target Bonus; 

  
 -3- 













 (ii) a material diminution in Executive’s authority, duties or responsibilities; 

(iii) a relocation of Executive’s location of employment by more than 50 miles; or 

(iv) the Company’s material breach of any provision of this Agreement. 

Executive’s continued employment during the 90-day period referred to above in this
Section 6(d) will not constitute consent to, or a waiver of rights with respect to, any act or failure to act constituting Good Reason hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company placing Executive on a paid leave for up to 90
days, pending the determination of whether there is a basis to terminate Executive for Cause, will not constitute a “Good Reason” event; provided, that, if Executive is subsequently terminated for Cause, then Executive will repay
any amounts paid by the Company to Executive during such paid leave period.  
 (e) Without Cause. The Company may terminate
Executive’s employment hereunder without Cause by providing Executive with a Notice of Termination (as defined in Section 7(a)). This means that, notwithstanding this Agreement, Executive’s employment with the Company will be
“at will.” 
 (f) Without Good Reason. Executive may terminate Executive’s employment hereunder without Good Reason by
providing the Company with a Notice of Termination. 
 7. Termination of Employment Procedure. 

(a) Notice of Termination. Any termination of Executive’s employment by the Company or, by Executive (other than termination
pursuant to Section 6(a)) will be communicated by written Notice of Termination to the other party hereto in accordance with Section 13 with at least 60 days’ advance written notice. For purposes of this Agreement, a
“Notice of Termination” means a notice which will indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and will set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for
termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated if the termination is based on Section 6(b), (c) or (d). The failure by Executive or the Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact
or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Good Reason or Cause will not waive any right of Executive or the Company, respectively, under this Agreement or preclude Executive or the Company, respectively, from asserting such fact or
circumstance in enforcing Executive’s or the Company’s rights hereunder. 
 (b) Date of Termination. “Date of
Termination” means (i) if Executive’s employment is terminated by his death, the date of his death; (ii) if Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to Section 6(b) (Disability), the date set forth in
the Notice of Termination; and (iii) if Executive’s employment is terminated for any other reason, the date set forth in the Notice of Termination; provided, however, that if such termination is due to a Notice of Termination
by Executive, the Company will have the right to accelerate such notice and make the Date of Termination the date of the Notice of Termination or such other date prior to Executive’s intended Date of Termination as the Company deems
appropriate, which acceleration will in no event be deemed a termination by the Company without Cause or constitute Good Reason. Furthermore, such acceleration by the Company shall not reduce or eliminate the payments or benefits Executive is
entitled to receive under this Agreement. 

  
 -4- 













 Removal from any Boards and Position. Upon the termination of Executive’s
employment with the Company for any reason, he will be deemed to resign (i) from the board of directors of any subsidiary of the Company and/or any other board to which he has been appointed or nominated by or on behalf of the Company
(including the Board), and (ii) from any position with the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, including, but not limited to, as an officer and director of the Company and any of its subsidiaries. 

8. Compensation upon Termination of Employment. This Section 8 provides the payments and benefits to be paid or provided to
Executive as a result of his termination of employment. Except as provided in this Section 8, Executive will not be entitled to any payments or benefits from the Company or its subsidiaries, as applicable, as a result of the termination
of his employment, regardless of the reason for such termination. 
 (a) Termination for Any Reason. Following the termination of
Executive’s employment, regardless of the reason for such termination and including, without limitation, a termination of his employment by the Company for Cause or by Executive without Good Reason, the Company will: 

(i) pay Executive (or his estate in the event of his death) as soon as practicable following the Date of Termination (A) any earned but
unpaid Base Salary and (B) any accrued and unused vacation pay through the Date of Termination; 
 (ii) reimburse Executive as soon as
practicable following the Date of Termination for any amounts due to Executive pursuant to Section 5 (e) (unless such termination occurred as a result of misappropriation of funds); and 

(iii) provide Executive with any compensation and/or benefits as may be due or payable to Executive in accordance with the terms and
provisions of any employee benefit plans or programs of the Company or its subsidiaries, as applicable. 
 (b) Termination by Company
without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason. If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason, Executive will be entitled to the payments and benefits provided in
Section 8(a) hereof. In addition, and solely in the case of a termination by Company without Cause or by Executive for Good Reason that occurs after six months following Executive’s first day of employment, and further subject to
Section 8(d) and subject to Executive’s continued compliance with Section 10 as if Executive remained employed during the period Executive is eligible to receive any severance benefits, Executive will be entitled to
receive the following severance benefits: (i) a lump sum amount equal to the Severance Amount, (ii) the Pro Rata Bonus paid at the time bonuses are paid to similarly situated employees of the Company, (iii) the Medical Benefits and
(iv) the Equity Vesting Benefits. 
 (i) The “Severance Amount” will be equal to: 

(A) if such termination is within two years following a Change in Control of the Company (a “Qualifying CIC

 (B) if such termination is not a Qualifying CIC

 -5- 













 (ii) The “Pro Rata Bonus” will be equal to: (A) if such termination is
a Qualifying CIC Termination, a prorated Annual Bonus for the year of termination based on the period of time elapsed from the start of the applicable performance period through the Date of Termination, calculated based on the greater of actual and
target performance or (B) if such termination is not a Qualifying CIC Termination, a prorated Annual Bonus for the year of termination based on the period of time elapsed from the start of the applicable performance period through the
Date of Termination, calculated based on actual performance and payable at the end of the performance period. For the avoidance of doubt, actual performance referred to herein shall be calculated on a basis comparable to the Company’s other
Named Executive Officers for the same period. 
 (iii) The “Medical Benefits” require the Company to provide Executive
medical insurance coverage substantially identical to (including the applicable cost of coverage) that provided to other senior executives of the Company (which may be provided pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act) for:
(A) if such termination is a Qualifying CIC Termination, twelve (12) months following the Date of Termination or (B) if such termination is not a Qualifying CIC Termination, twelve (12) months following the Date of Termination.
If this Agreement to provide benefits continuation raises any compliance issues or impositions of penalties under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act or other applicable law, then the parties agree to modify this Agreement so that it
complies with the terms of such laws without impairing the economic benefit to Executive. 
 (iv) The “Equity Vesting
Benefits” mean whether in the case of either a Qualifying or non-Qualifying CIC Termination such additional vesting as the Company’s 2020 Stock Incentive Plan Committee may determine pursuant to
the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan, provided that such determination for Executive shall be made in a manner substantially similar to Company’s other executive officers. 

(v) “Change in Control” will have the following meaning contained in the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan or such other successor
plan as may adopted by the Company following closing of the Merger (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), which is hereby incorporated by reference, except that for purposes of this Agreement, the term “Change in Control”
shall not include the closing of the Merger (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement. 
 (c) Death or Disability. In the
event Executive’s employment terminates as a result of Executive’s death or Disability, Executive would be entitled to (i) the payments and benefits provided in Section 8(a) hereof and, subject to Section 8(d),
(ii) a prorated portion of Executive’s annual Target Bonus based on the period of time elapsed from the start of the applicable performance period through the Date of Termination, and (iii) vesting of all outstanding unvested
equity-based awards on the Date of Termination (if applicable, any performance share unit performance requirements will vest based on actual performance at the end of the performance period), in each case, to be paid in a cash lump sum payment as
soon as practicable following the Date of Termination. 
 (d) Condition to Payment. As a condition to the payments set forth in
Section 8, Executive must execute (and not revoke) a separation and general release agreement in favor of the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Release”) in substantially the form typically used by the Company in
connection with severance pay modified to reflect the terms of this Agreement. Subject to Section 17 hereof, any lump sum payments provided pursuant to this Section 8 will be paid to Executive within 30 days after such
Release becomes effective; 

  
 -6- 













 
provided, however, that if Executive’s Date of Termination occurs on or after November 1 of a given calendar year, such payment will, subject to Section 17
hereof, be paid in January of the immediately following calendar year. 
 9. Section 280G. In the event that any payments or
benefits otherwise payable to Executive (1) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and (2) but for this
Section 9, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then such payments and benefits will be either (x) delivered in full, or (y) delivered as to such lesser extent that would result in no
portion of such payments and benefits being subject to excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income and employment taxes and the excise tax
imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (and any equivalent state or local excise taxes), results in the receipt by Executive, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of benefits, notwithstanding that
all or some portion of such payments and benefits may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. Any reduction in payments and/or benefits required by this provision will occur in the following order: (1) reduction of cash payments;
(2) reduction of the vesting acceleration of equity awards (if any); and (3) reduction of other benefits paid or provided to Executive. In the event that the acceleration of vesting of equity awards is to be reduced, such acceleration of
vesting will be cancelled in the reverse order of the date of grant for equity awards. If two or more equity awards are granted on the same date, each award will be reduced on a pro rata basis. 

10. Confidential Information, Ownership of Documents; Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation. 
 (a) Confidential Information. Executive acknowledges that Executive’s
employment by the Company will, throughout Executive’s employment, bring Executive into close contact with many confidential affairs of the Company, including information about costs, profits, markets, sales, products, key personnel,

 -7- 













 
or disclosures shall be conditioned upon the agreement of the person to whom the terms are disclosed to maintain the confidentiality of such terms, or as provided in clauses (i) or (ii)
above. This confidentiality covenant is not intended to, and shall be interpreted in a manner that does not, limit or restrict Executive from exercising any legally protected whistleblower rights under any applicable law and receiving compensation
therefore if provided by applicable law or rule for information provided to a governmental entity. 
 Executive is hereby notified that the
immunity provisions in Section 1833 of title 18 of the United States Code provide that an individual cannot be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for any disclosure of a trade secret that is made

any of its respective current officers, directors, employees, joint venture partners, products, services or customers to any third party (whether through non-public communication with any person, social media
or in any public communication to the media). Notwithstanding the foregoing, as it relates to customers and joint venture partners, this paragraph is limited to such acts that are expressly tied to, in context of, or in reference to Executive’s
role with the Company. Nothing contained in this Section 10(a) shall preclude Executive from enforcing his rights under this Agreement or truthfully testifying in response to legal process or a governmental inquiry, or providing

and such securities, including converted or convertible securities, do not 

  
 -8- 













 
constitute more than one percent (1%) of the outstanding voting power of that entity and (ii) securities of any Competitive Entity that are not registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g)
of the Exchange Act and are not publicly traded, so long as Executive or any entity under Executive’s control is not part of any control group of such Competitive Entity and such securities, including converted securities, do not constitute
more than three percent (3%) of the outstanding voting power of that entity; provided, that in each case Executive has no active participation in the business of such entity except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. 

“Competitive Entity” means a business (whether conducted through an entity or by individuals including employees in

to, the Company, Executive will not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Company, (i) solicit or employ, and shall not cause any entity of which Executive is an affiliate to employ, any person who is a full-time
employee of the Company, (ii) solicit any Client to transact business with a Competitive Entity that would directly cause such Client to reduce or refrain from doing any business with the Company, (iii) transact business with any Client

 -9- 













 
Product”), and that various business opportunities shall be presented to Executive by reason of Executive’s employment by the Company. Executive acknowledges that all of
the foregoing shall be owned by and belong exclusively to the Company and that Executive shall have no personal interest therein; provided that they are either related in any manner to the business (commercial or experimental) of the Company,

(e) Covenants to Others. Executive has indicated to the Company that there are no agreements that would impact Executive’s ability
to be employed by the Company in this position, or in any way would prevent Executive from performing the functions of this position. Executive hereby agrees that Executive will not use, bring onto the Company’s premises, or copy or store

14. Dispute Resolution; Management Arbitration Agreement. 

(a) The parties will use good faith efforts to resolve any controversy or claim arising out of, or relating to this Agreement or the breach
thereof, first in accordance with the Company’s internal review procedures, except that this requirement will not apply to any claim or dispute under or relating to Section 10 of this Agreement. If, despite their good faith efforts,
the parties are unable to resolve such controversy or claim through the Company’s internal review procedures, then such controversy or claim will be resolved by arbitration in Chicago, Illinois, in accordance with the rules then applicable of
the American Arbitration Association (provided that the Company will pay the filing fee and all hearing fees, arbitrator expenses and compensation fees, and administrative and other fees associated with any such arbitration), and judgment upon the
award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. 
 15. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Amendments. No provisions of this Agreement may be amended, modified, or waived unless such amendment or modification is agreed to
in writing signed by Executive and by a duly authorized officer of the Company, and such waiver is set forth in writing and signed by the party to be charged. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision or provisions of this Agreement will
not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which will remain in full force and effect. 
 (b)
Full Settlement. Except as set forth in Section 10(h) of this Agreement, the Company’s obligations to make the payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder will not (absent fraud
or willful misconduct or a termination for Cause) be affected by any set-offs, counterclaims, recoupment, defense, or other claim, right or action that the Company may have against Executive or others. After
Executive’s termination of employment, in no event will Executive be obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to Executive under any of the provisions of this Agreement, and such
amounts will not be reduced whether or not Executive obtains other employment.

performance of this Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Illinois without regard to its conflict of law principles.

with respect to any controversy or claim between Executive and the Company arising out of or relating to or concerning this Agreement. 

16. Entire Agreement/Effectiveness. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject
matter contained herein and supersedes all prior agreements, term sheets, promises, covenants, arrangements, communications, representations or warranties, whether oral or written, by any officer, employee or representative of any party hereto in
respect of such subject matter. Any other prior agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein, including, without limitation, the Existing Employment Agreement, is hereby terminated and cancelled, except with
respect to any equity agreements or any compensatory plan or program in which Executive is a participant on the Effective Date. 
 17.
Section 409A Compliance. 
 (a) This Agreement is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code
(together with the applicable regulations thereunder, “Section 409A”). To the extent that any provision in this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A or to the extent any provision in this Agreement
must be modified to comply with Section 409A (including, without limitation, Treasury Regulation 1.409A-3(c)), such provision will be read, or will be modified (with the mutual consent of the parties,
which consent will not be unreasonably withheld), as the case may be, in such a manner so that all payments due under this Agreement will comply with Section 409A. For purposes of Section 409A, each payment made under this Agreement will
be treated as a separate payment. In no event may Executive, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment. 
 (b) All
reimbursements provided under this Agreement will be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A, including, where applicable, the requirement that (i) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during
Executive’s lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in this Agreement), (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar
year, (iii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred, and (iv) the right to reimbursement is not subject to liquidation or
exchange for another benefit. 
 (c) Executive further acknowledges that any tax liability incurred by Executive under Section 409A of
the Code is solely the responsibility of Executive. 
 (d) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if necessary to
comply with the restriction in Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code concerning payments to “specified employees” (as defined in Section 409A) any payment on account of Executive’s separation from service that would
otherwise be due hereunder within six months after such separation will nonetheless be delayed until the first business day of the seventh month following Executive’s date of termination and the first such payment will include the


  
 -13- 













 
cumulative amount of any payments that would have been paid prior to such date if not for such restriction, together with interest on such cumulative amount during the period of such restriction
at a rate, per annum, equal to the applicable federal short-term rate (compounded monthly) in effect under Section 1274(d) of the Code on the Date of Termination. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Executive will not be
considered to have terminated employment with the Company for purposes of Section 8 hereof unless he would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A.

 18. Representations. Executive represents and warrants to the Company that he is under no contractual or other binding legal
restriction which would prohibit Executive from entering into and performing under this Agreement or that would limit the performance of Executive’s duties under this Agreement. 

19. Withholding Taxes. The Company will withhold from any amounts or benefits payable under this Agreement income taxes and payroll
taxes that are required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. 
 20. Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, and all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement will become binding when one or more counterparts hereof, individually or taken
together, will bear the signatures of all of the parties reflected hereon as the signatories. Photographic, faxed or PDF copies of such signed counterparts may be used in lieu of the originals for any purpose.
