without limitation, to waive the forfeiture period and any other conditions set forth in any Award Agreement under appropriate circumstances (including the death, disability or retirement of the Participant or a material change in circumstances
arising after the date of an Award) and subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee shall deem appropriate. 
 (b) Actions taken

Stock on the date the Option is exercised. Exercise of Options shall also be permitted, to the extent permitted by the Committee, in accordance with a cashless exercise program under which, if so instructed by a Participant, Shares may be issued
directly to the Participant’s broker or dealer upon receipt of an irrevocable written notice of exercise from the Participant. In addition, exercise of Options shall be permitted, to the extent permitted by the Committee, (i) by reduction
in the number of Shares otherwise deliverable upon exercise of such Option with a Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate Exercise Price at the time of exercise, or (ii) in any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the
Committee.

 (d) Each Option granted under this Plan shall not be transferable by the Participant
otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and shall be exercisable, during the Participant’s lifetime, only by the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Non-Qualified Stock
Options may be transferable, without payment of consideration, to Family Members to the extent permitted by the Committee. 
 (e) No
Participant may be granted Incentive Stock Options under the Plan (or any other plans of the Company and its Subsidiaries) that would result in Shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value (measured on the Date of Grant) of more than $100,000 first
becoming exercisable in any one calendar year. 
  

	7.	 GRANT AND EXERCISE OF STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS 



(a) The Committee may grant to any Participant one or more Awards of Stock Appreciation Rights on such terms and subject to such conditions as
may be established by the Committee. An Award of Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted in such number, at such Exercise Price, and subject to such waiting periods, exercise dates and restrictions on exercise (including, but not limited to,
periodic installments), not inconsistent with the terms of this Plan, as may be determined by the Committee at the time of grant. 
 (b) The
Exercise Price of each Share upon exercise of any Stock Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan (except in connection with Substitute Awards) shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Date of Grant. Each
Stock Appreciation Right shall have a stated term not to exceed ten (10) years from the Date of Grant. 
 (c) Upon exercise of a Stock
Appreciation Right with respect to a Share, the Participant shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (A) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise over (B) the Exercise Price of such Stock
Appreciation Right established in the Award Agreement. Any payment which may become due from the Company by reason of a Participant’s exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right may be paid to the Participant as determined by the Committee and set
forth in the applicable Award Agreement (i) all in cash, (ii) all in Common Stock, or (iii) in any combination of cash and Common Stock. In the event that all or a portion of the payment is made in Common Stock, the number of Shares
delivered in satisfaction of such payment shall be determined by dividing the amount of such payment or portion thereof by the Fair Market Value on the Exercise Date. No fractional Share shall be issued to make any payment in respect of Stock
Appreciation Rights; if any fractional Share would be issuable, the combination of cash and Common Stock payable to the Participant shall be adjusted as directed by the Committee to avoid the issuance of any fractional Share. 

(d) Each Award of Stock Appreciation Rights granted under this Plan shall not be transferable by the Participant otherwise than by will or the
laws of descent and distribution, and shall be exercisable, during the Participant’s lifetime, only by the Participant.

the Company) such as a merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, separation, partial or complete liquidation, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, split up, spin-off, or other
distribution of stock or property of the Company, a combination or exchange of Common Stock, dividend in kind, or other like change in capital structure, number of outstanding Shares, distribution (other than normal cash dividends) to shareholders
of the Company, or any similar corporate event or transaction, the Committee, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of Participants’ rights under this Plan, shall make equitable and appropriate adjustments and substitutions, as
applicable, to or of the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding Awards, the Exercise Price for such shares, the number and kind of shares available for future issuance under the Plan, and other determinations applicable to outstanding
Awards, including with respect to any applicable performance goals. The Committee shall have the power and sole discretion to determine the amount of the adjustment to be made in each case. 

(b) In addition, in the event that the Company is a party to a Merger, outstanding Awards shall be subject to the agreement of merger or
reorganization. Such agreement may provide, without limitation, for the continuation of outstanding Awards by the Company (if the Company is a surviving corporation), for their assumption by the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary, for
the substitution by the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary of its own awards for such Awards, for accelerated vesting and accelerated expiration, or for settlement in cash or cash equivalents. 

(c) In addition, unless otherwise specifically prohibited under applicable laws, or by the rules and regulations of any governing governmental
agencies or national securities exchanges, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, at the time an Award is made hereunder or at any time prior to, coincident with or after the time of a Change in Control take one of the following actions which
shall apply only upon the occurrence of a Change in Control or, if later, upon the action being taken: 
 (i) provide for the
acceleration of any time periods, or the waiver of any other conditions, relating to the vesting, exercise, payment or distribution of an Award so that any Award to a Participant whose employment or other service relationship has been terminated as
a result of a Change in Control may be vested, exercised, paid or distributed in full on or before a date fixed by the Committee, and in connection therewith the Committee may (i) provide for an extended period to exercise Options (not to
exceed the original Option term) and (ii) determine the level of attainment of any applicable performance goals;

 (ii) provide for the purchase of any Awards from a Participant whose
employment or other service relationship has been terminated as a result of a Change in Control, upon the Participant’s request, for an amount of cash equal to the amount that could have been obtained upon the exercise, payment or distribution
of such rights had such Award been currently exercisable or payable; or 
 (iii) cause the Awards then outstanding to be
assumed, or new rights substituted therefore, by the surviving corporation in such Change in Control. 
 For purposes of
sub-paragraphs (i) and (ii) above, any Participant whose employment or other service relationship is either (A) terminated by the Company other than for “cause,” or (B) terminated by
the Participant for “good reason” (each as defined in the applicable Award Agreement), in either case upon, or on or prior to the second anniversary of, a Change in Control, shall be deemed to have been terminated as a result of the Change
in Control. 
  

	11.	 AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION 



(a) This Plan may be amended or terminated at any time by the Board except with respect to any Awards then outstanding, and any Award granted
under this Plan may be terminated at any time with the consent of the Participant. The Board may make such changes in and additions to this Plan as it may deem proper and in the best interest of the Company; provided, however, that no such action
shall, without the consent of the Participant, materially impair any Award theretofore granted under this Plan; and provided, further, that no such action shall be taken without the approval of the stockholders of the Company if such stockholder
approval is required under applicable law or the rules of the New York Stock Exchange. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the repricing of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights is prohibited without prior approval of the
Company’s stockholders. For this purpose, a “repricing” means any of the following (or any other action that has the same effect as any of the following): (A) changing the terms of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right to lower its
Purchase or Exercise Price, as applicable; (B) any other action that is treated as a “repricing” under generally accepted accounting principles; and (C) repurchasing for cash or canceling an Option or Stock Appreciation Right at
a time when its Purchase or Exercise Price, as applicable, is greater than the Fair Market Value of the underlying Shares in exchange for another Award, unless the cancellation and exchange occurs in connection with a change in capitalization or
similar change under Section 10 above. Such cancellation and exchange would be considered a “repricing” regardless of whether it is treated as a “repricing” under generally accepted accounting principles and regardless of
whether it is voluntary on the part of the Participant. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the Board may amend or revise this Plan to comply with applicable laws or governmental regulations.

	12.	 GENERAL PROVISIONS 



(a) Each Award granted under this Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement containing such terms and conditions as the Committee may
require, and no person shall have any rights under any Award granted under this Plan unless and until such Award Agreement has been executed and delivered by the Participant and the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may in its
discretion determine not to evidence one or more Adjusted Spin-Off Awards with an Award Agreement, and instead rely on the terms memorialized in the award agreement for the original Crane Holdings Co., Equity
Compensation Award to which such Adjusted Spin-Off Award relates, as adjusted in accordance with the Employee Matters Agreement. 

(b) In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Plan and any provision of any Award Agreement, the terms of this Plan shall be
controlling. 
 (c) No Participant or other person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award under the Plan. Neither the Plan nor
any action taken hereunder shall be construed as giving any Participant any right to be retained in the employment or any other service relationship with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Unless otherwise agreed by contract, the Company
reserves the right to terminate its employment or other service relationship with any person at any time and for any reason. 
 (d) Income
realized as a result of a grant or an exercise of any Award under this Plan shall not be included in the Participant’s earnings for the purpose of any benefit plan in which the Participant may be enrolled or for which the Participant may become
eligible unless otherwise specifically provided for in such plan. 
 (e) The obligation of the Company to sell and deliver Shares with
respect to any Award granted hereunder shall be subject to, as deemed necessary or appropriate by counsel for the Company, and the Committee shall have the sole discretion to impose such conditions, restrictions and limitations (including suspending
exercises of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights and the tolling of any applicable exercise period during such suspension) on the issuance of Common Stock with respect to any Award unless and until the Committee determines that such issuance
complies with (i) all applicable laws, rules and regulations and such approvals by any governmental agencies as may be required, including, without limitation, the effectiveness of a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, and
(ii) the condition that such Shares shall have been duly listed on such stock exchanges as the Common Stock is then listed. 
 (f)
Anything in this Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, it is expressly agreed and understood that if any one or more provisions of this Plan shall be illegal or invalid such illegality or invalidity shall not invalidate this Plan or any other
provisions thereof, but this Plan shall be effective in all respects as though the illegal or invalid provisions had not been included. 

(g) All determinations made and actions taken pursuant to the Plan shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, other than the
conflict of laws provisions thereof, and construed in accordance therewith.

 (h) For any Award granted under the Plan other than an Option or a Stock Appreciation Right,
the Committee shall have the discretion, upon the Date of Grant or thereafter, to provide for the payment of dividend equivalents to the Participant in connection with such Award or to establish a Dividend Equivalent Account with respect to the
Award, and the applicable Award Agreement or an amendment thereto shall confirm the terms of such arrangement. For purposes of payment of dividend equivalents or settlement of any Dividend Equivalent Account, the amount to be paid or otherwise
settled shall be rounded to the nearest one-hundredth of a dollar ($0.01). If a Dividend Equivalent Account is established, the following terms shall apply: 

(i) Dividend Equivalent Accounts shall be subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine and as shall be
set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. Such terms and conditions may include, without limitation, for the Participant’s Account to be credited as of the record date of each cash dividend on the Common Stock with an amount equal to the
cash dividends which would be paid with respect to the number of Shares then covered by the related Award if such Shares had been owned of record by the Participant on such record date. 

(ii) Dividend Equivalent Accounts shall be established and maintained only on the books and records of the Company and no
assets or funds of the Company shall be set aside, placed in trust, removed from the claims of the Company’s general creditors, or otherwise made available until such amounts are actually payable as provided hereunder. 

(iii) Dividend equivalents credited to a Dividend Equivalent Account with respect to any Award that becomes earned based on a
performance condition shall be earned by the Participant only to the extent the underlying Award is earned. 
 (i) As a condition to receipt
of any Award under the Plan, a Participant shall agree, upon demand of the Company, to do all acts and execute, deliver and perform all additional documents, instruments and agreements which may be reasonably required by the Company, to implement
the provisions and purposes of the Plan. 
 (j) Awards under the Plan may be granted to such employees or
Non-Employee Directors of the Company and its Subsidiaries who are residing in foreign jurisdictions as the Committee in its sole discretion may determine from time to time. The Committee may adopt such
supplements or subplans to the Plan as may be necessary or appropriate to comply with the applicable laws of such foreign jurisdictions and to afford Participants favorable treatment under such laws; provided, however, that no Award shall be granted
under any such supplement with terms or conditions inconsistent with the provision set forth in the Plan. 
 (k) All notices, elections,
requests, demands and all other communications required or permitted by the Committee, the Company or a Participant under the Plan shall be delivered personally, by intraoffice mail, by fax, by electronic mail or other electronic means, or via a
postal service, postage prepaid, to such electronic mail or postal address and directed to such person as the Company may notify the Participant from time to time; and to the Participant at the Participant’s electronic mail or postal address as
shown on the records of the Company from time to time, or at such other electronic mail or postal address as the Participant, by notice to the Company, may designate in writing from time to time.

 (l) If a Participant or any Beneficiary entitled to receive a payment under this Plan is, in
the judgment of the Committee, physically, mentally or legally incapable of receiving or acknowledging receipt of the payment, and no legal representative has been appointed for the individual, the Company may (but is not required to) cause the
payment to be made to any one or more of the following as may be chosen by the Company: (i) the Participant’s designated Beneficiary (in the case of the Participant’s incapacity); (ii) the institution maintaining the Participant or
the Beneficiary; (iii) a custodian under the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act of any state (in the case of the incapacity of a beneficiary); or (iv) the spouse, children, parents or other relatives by blood or marriage of the Participant or
the Participant’s Beneficiary. The Company is not required to ensure the proper application of any payment so made, and any such payment completely discharges all claims under this Plan against the Company to the extent of the payment. 

(m) The Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code to the extent an Award is intended to be subject to,
or otherwise be exempt from, Section 409A. Consistent with that intent, the Plan shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with Section 409A and in the event that any provision that is necessary for the Plan to comply with
Section 409A is determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, to have been omitted, such omitted provision shall be deemed included herein and is hereby incorporated as part of the Plan. In addition, and notwithstanding any provision of
the Plan to the contrary, the Company reserves the right to amend the Plan or any Award granted under the Plan, by action of the Committee, without the consent of any affected Participant, to the extent deemed necessary or appropriate for purposes
of maintaining compliance with Section 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, to the extent required to avoid accelerated taxation and additional taxes or penalties
under Section 409A of the Code, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to the Plan during the six (6) month period immediately following the Participant’s separation from service
with the Company shall instead be paid on the first payroll date after the six (6)-month anniversary of the Participant’s separation from service (or the Participant’s death, if earlier). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company
nor the Committee shall have any obligation to take any action to prevent the assessment of any additional tax or penalty on any Participant under Section 409A of the Code and neither the Company nor the Committee will have any liability to any
Participant for such tax or penalty. 
 (n) To the extent that this Plan provides for or otherwise refers to issuance of certificates to
reflect the transfer of Shares pursuant to the terms of an Award, the transfer of such Shares may be effected, in the Company’s discretion, on a book entry or such other noncertificated basis, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or
the rules of any stock exchange on which such Shares are listed. 
 (o) The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or
withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy Federal, state, local or other applicable taxes (including the Participant’s FICA obligation or other social taxes) required by law to be withheld with
respect to any taxable event arising as a result of this Plan. The Company may cause any such tax withholding obligation to be satisfied by the Company withholding Shares otherwise deliverable in connection with the Award that have a fair market
value on the date the tax is to be determined not to exceed the maximum statutory total tax which could be imposed on the transaction. In the alternative, the Company may permit Participants to elect to satisfy the tax


  
 - 16 - 













 
withholding obligation, in whole or in part, by either (i) having the Company withhold Shares having a fair market value on the date the tax is to be determined in an amount not to exceed
the maximum statutory total tax which could be imposed on the transaction or (ii) tendering previously acquired, unencumbered Shares having an aggregate fair market value in an amount not to exceed the maximum statutory total tax which could be
imposed on the transaction. All such elections shall be made in writing, signed by the Participant, and shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. 

(p) All Awards made under the Plan (whether vested or unvested) are subject to rescission, cancellation or recoupment, in whole or in part,
under any current or future “clawback” or similar policies of the Company or its Subsidiary that are applicable to the Participant. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Plan, any Award which is subject to recovery under any law,
government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement, will be subject to such deductions and “clawback” as may be required to be made pursuant to such law, government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement. The Awards, and
any Shares associated therewith, shall be subject to the Company’s (or its Subsidiaries’) stock ownership, securities trading, anti-hedging and other similar policies, as in effect from time to time. In the case of a Participant that holds
an Adjusted Spin-Off Award, which Participant provides services to Crane NXT, Co. or its affiliates immediately after the Effective Time, but does not provide services to the Company or its Subsidiaries
immediately after the Effective Time, this provision shall be read so as to apply to policies that are maintained by Crane NXT, Co. and its affiliates. 

(q) Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, the terms and conditions of the Plan will apply to Adjusted Spin-Off Awards only to the extent that such terms and conditions are not inconsistent with the treatment of such Awards under the terms of the Employee Matters Agreement.
