Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement 

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT 

VOLT INFORMATION SCIENCES, INC. 

2015 Equity Incentive Plan 

This RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), is made as of June 14, 2018 (the “Grant
Date”) between Volt Information Sciences, Inc., a New York corporation (the “Company”), and [                ] (the
“Participant”), and is made pursuant to the terms of the Company’s 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan. 

Section 1.    Restricted Stock Units. The Company hereby issues to the Participant, as of
the Grant Date, [            ] restricted stock units (the “Units”, and each, a “Unit”), subject to such vesting, transfer and other restrictions
and conditions as set forth in this Agreement. Each Unit represents the right to receive an amount in cash or Shares as determined in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement
and the Plan. 
 Section 2.    Vesting Requirements. 

(a)    Generally. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Units shall vest ratably over three years on each of the
first three anniversaries of the Grant Date (each, a “Vesting Date”), subject to the Participant’s continuous service or employment with the Company or its Affiliates (“Service”) from the Grant Date through the
applicable Vesting Date. 
 (b)    Terminations of Service. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2(d)
below, upon the occurrence of a termination of the Participant’s Service for any reason, all outstanding and unvested Units shall immediately be forfeited and cancelled, and the Participant shall not be entitled to any compensation or other
amount in respect thereof. 
 (c)    Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, if
upon a Change in Control the Participant does not receive a Replacement Award in respect of the Units, then (i) if such Change in Control occurs on or before the first anniversary of the Grant Date, the Participant shall vest in a portion of
the Units, determined by multiplying the number of Units granted under this Agreement by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months elapsed from the Grant Date through the effective date of such Change in Control (with any month
in which at least 15 days has passed to be deemed a full month for purposes of the foregoing, and in any event not to exceed 12 months), and the denominator of which is 36, and any Units that do not vest after giving effect to the foregoing sentence
shall be immediately cancelled and forfeited, and (ii) if such Change in Control occurs after the first anniversary of the Grant Date, then any Units that are unvested as of immediately prior to the Change in Control shall vest as of the
effective date of the Change in Control. With respect to any Units that vest as a result of the foregoing sentence, the “Vesting Date” as used in this Agreement shall mean the effective date of the Change in Control. For the avoidance of
doubt, if the Participant receives a Replacement Award in respect of the Units (the “Replacement Units”), then such Replacement Units shall continue to vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in Section 2(a)
above and continue to be subject to the terms of the Plan and this Agreement.

 (d)    Involuntary Termination following a Change
in Control. If a Participant incurs an Involuntary Termination of Service on or prior to the second anniversary of the closing of a Change in Control, the Replacement Units will vest based on the following schedule: (i) if such Change in
Control occurred on or before the first anniversary of the Grant Date, then on the effective date of the Participant’s Involuntary Termination the Participant shall vest in a portion of the Replacement Units, determined by multiplying the
number of unvested Replacement Units by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months elapsed from the Grant Date through the effective date of such Involuntary Termination (with any month in which at least 15 days has passed to be
deemed a full month for purposes of the foregoing, and in any event not to exceed 12 months), and the denominator of which is 36, and any Replacement Units that do not vest after giving effect to the foregoing sentence shall be immediately cancelled
and forfeited, and (ii) if such Change in Control occurred after the first anniversary of the Grant Date, then any Replacement Units that are unvested as of immediately prior to the Participant’s Involuntary Termination shall vest as of
the effective date of such Involuntary Termination. With respect to any Replacement Units that vest as a result of the foregoing sentence, the “Vesting Date” as used in this Agreement shall mean the effective date of the Participant’s
Involuntary Termination. 
 Section 3.    Settlement. 

(a)    Cash Settlement. As soon as reasonably practicable following the applicable Vesting Date (and in any event,
within 10 days following the applicable Vesting Date), any Units that become vested and non-forfeitable shall be settled by the Company’s delivery to the Participant of an amount in cash equal to the
product of (A) the number of Units that vested and became non-forfeitable pursuant to Section 2 hereof, multiplied by (B) the lesser of (i) the closing price of a Share on the applicable
Vesting Date, and (ii) 2x the closing price of a Share on the Grant Date (the amount referred to in subsection (ii), the “Cap Price”). 

(b)    Company Discretion to Settle Units in Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that there
are shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2015 Plan or any successor plan at the time the Units are settled (or any portion of the Units are settled), then the Company may, in its sole discretion, determine to settle the applicable
Units (or any portion of the applicable Units) by delivering to the Participant a number of Shares equal to the number of Units vesting. 

(c)    Settlement on a Change of Control. With respect to any Units that vest and become settled upon a
Change in Control, the Committee will have the discretion to settle such Units in either (i) cash, as calculated in accordance with Section 3(a) hereof, or (ii) in the form of other consideration received by the Company’s
shareholders in connection with such Change in Control; provided, that any cash received by the Participant will be subject to the application of the Cap Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with a Change in Control, the
Committee shall have the discretion to waive the application of the Cap Price. 

Section 4.    Restrictions on Transfer. No Units (nor any interest therein) may be sold,
assigned, alienated, pledged, attached or otherwise transferred or encumbered by the Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and any such purported sale, assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, transfer or
encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or any Affiliate; provided that the designation of a 







 Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement 

 
 beneficiary shall not constitute a sale, assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment,
transfer or encumbrance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the discretion of the Committee, Units may be transferred by the Participant solely to the Participant’s spouse, siblings, parents, children and grandchildren or trusts for the benefit
of such persons or partnerships, corporations, limited liability companies or other entities owned solely by such persons, including, but not limited to, trusts for such persons. 

Section 5.    Investment Representation. The Participant is acquiring the Units for
investment purposes only and not with a view to, or in connection with, the public distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). No Shares shall be acquired unless and until the
Company and/or the Participant shall have complied with all applicable federal or state registration, listing and/or qualification requirements and all other requirements of law or of any regulatory agencies having jurisdiction, unless the Committee
has received evidence satisfactory to it that the Participant may acquire such Shares pursuant to an exemption from registration under the applicable securities laws. The Participant understands and agrees that none of the Units and none of the
Shares issued in respect thereof (if any), may be offered, sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of except in compliance with this Agreement and the Securities Act pursuant to an effective registration statement or
applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall have no obligation to deliver any Shares
hereunder or make any other distribution of benefits hereunder unless such delivery or distribution would comply with all applicable laws (including, without limitation, the Securities Act), and the applicable requirements of any securities exchange
or similar entity. 
 Section 6.    Adjustments. The Units granted hereunder shall be
subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4(b) of the Plan. 
 Section 7.    No
Right of Continued Service. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continued Service. 

Section 8.    Tax Withholding. This Agreement and the Units shall be subject to tax
and/or other withholding in accordance with Section 17(e) of the Plan. 

Section 9.    No Rights as a Stockholder; Dividends. The Participant shall not have any
privileges of a stockholder of the Company with respect to any Units, including without limitation any right to vote any Shares potentially issuable in respect of such Units or to receive dividends or other distributions in respect thereof, unless
and until Shares have actually been delivered to the Participant in respect of such Units in accordance with Section 3(b) of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any dividends payable with respect to the Units during the period from
the Grant Date through the date the applicable Units are settled in accordance with Section 3 hereof will accumulate in cash and be payable to the Participant on a deferred basis, but only to the extent that the Units vests in accordance with
Section 2 hereof. In no event shall the Participant be entitled to any payments relating to dividends paid after the earlier to occur of the settlement or forfeiture of the applicable Units and, for the avoidance of doubt, all accumulated
dividends shall be forfeited immediately upon the forfeiture or cancellation of the Units or applicable portion thereof.

Section 10.    Clawback. The Units will be subject to recoupment in accordance with any
existing clawback policy or clawback policy that the Company may be required to adopt pursuant to the listing standards of any national securities exchange or association on which the Company’s securities are listed or as may otherwise be
required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or other applicable law. In addition, the Board may impose such other clawback, recovery or recoupment provisions as the Board determines necessary or appropriate, including
but not limited to a reacquisition right in respect of previously acquired cash or property upon the occurrence of Cause. The implementation of any clawback policy will not be deemed a triggering event for purposes of any definition of “good
reason” for resignation or “constructive termination.”

to this Agreement shall be in writing and signed by the parties hereto. Notwithstanding the immediately-preceding sentence, subject to the terms of the Plan, the Committee may waive any conditions or rights under, amend any terms of, or alter,
suspend, discontinue, cancel or terminate, this Agreement and/or the Units; provided that, subject to the terms of the Plan, any such waiver, amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance, cancellation or termination that would materially
impair the rights of the Participant or any holder or beneficiary of the Units shall not be effective without the written consent of the Participant, holder or beneficiary. 

Section 12.    Construction. The Units granted hereunder is granted by the Company
pursuant to the Plan and is in all respects subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. The Participant hereby acknowledges that a copy of the Plan has been delivered to the Participant and accepts the Units hereunder subject to all terms and

decisions under the Plan and this Agreement are vested in the Committee, whose determinations shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Participant. 

Section 13.    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the choice of law principles thereof. 

Section 14.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 

Section 15.    Binding Effect. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
