promptly return any and all Termination Benefits already received to the Company. All capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to them elsewhere in the Agreement. 

1. Termination Allowance. The Company will pay to you $525,000 as your termination allowance under the Company’s severance
policy. The termination allowance payment will be made within three days after the Effective Date. 
 2. CNC Payment. Pursuant to
Section 6(g) of the CNC Agreement, the Company will pay to you $971,250 representing 185% of your annual base salary in effect immediately prior to the Termination Date (the “CNC Payment”). Fifty percent of the
CNC Payment (i.e., $485,625) will be paid on September 30, 2020, and the remaining 50% of the CNC Payment will be made in six equal, consecutive, monthly installments, each in the amount of $80,937.50, commencing on October 30, 2020. 

3. Verso Incentive Plan. Pursuant to Section 6(f) of the CNC Agreement, the Company will pay to you a prorated portion of the
annual incentive award, if any, that may be payable to you under the 2020 Verso Incentive Plan (the “2020 VIP”). The 2020 VIP payment, if any, will be based on the Company’s actual level of achievement of its performance
objectives under the 2020 VIP and the assumption that you achieved 100% of your group/individual performance objectives under the 2020 VIP, and will be prorated on a daily basis to reflect the number of days that you were employed by the Company in
2020. The 2020 VIP payment, if any, will be made in 2021 in accordance with the provisions of the 2020 VIP. In addition, on March 31, 2020, the Company will pay to you the remaining amount payable to you under the 2019 Verso Incentive Plan, in

you elected. 
 7. Equity Awards. 43,357 time-based restricted stock units shall become vested as of the Termination Date and be
settled within 10 days after you execute the Waiver and do not revoke it within the time-period for revocation set forth therein. 18,557 performance-












 
based restricted stock units shall remain outstanding and will not vest unless and until the applicable date as of which the conditions to their vesting set forth in the applicable award
agreement are met, provided that the condition that you be employed by the Company at the time of vesting shall not apply. 
 8. Medical
and Dental Insurance. The Company will provide fully subsidized continuation of your current benefit election for 6 months, beginning the 1st day of the month following termination date (“Initial Continued Coverage”).
Thereafter, you have the right to continue the group medical and dental insurance coverage provided by the Company for you and your eligible dependents pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended
(“COBRA”), provided that you elect such continued coverage in accordance with COBRA, during the two-year period (the “COBRA Period”) beginning on the first day of the month
immediately following the termination of the 6 months of your fully subsidized coverage. If, and to the extent that, you elect to receive continued medical and dental insurance coverage in accordance with COBRA, the cost of the continued coverage
during the subsequent 18 months of the COBRA Period (the “Subsequent Continued Coverage”) will be split between you and the Company, with you paying the standard, active- employee portion of the cost in effect immediately prior to
the Termination Date and the Company paying the balance of the cost. Notwithstanding the foregoing: 
 (a) The Company’s obligation to
pay the cost of the Initial Continued Coverage or its portion of the Subsequent Continued Coverage will terminate effective as of the last day of the month in which you first become eligible for comparable coverage from another employer, as
reasonably determined by the Company. 
 (b) If the Initial Continued Coverage would result in penalties under Section 4980D of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the Company, in its sole and absolute discretion, may provide that (1) you will pay to the Company, on an after-tax basis, a monthly amount equal to the full
premium cost of the Initial Continued Coverage (determined in accordance with the methodology under COBRA) for such month, and (2) within 30 days after such premium payment, the Company will reimburse you in cash (less required withholding) an
amount equal to the sum of (A) the excess of (i) the full premium cost of the Initial Continued Coverage for such month over (ii) any premium amount that would have been payable by you if you had been actively employed by the Company
for such month and (B) an additional tax gross-up payment to cover all estimated applicable federal, state and local income and payroll taxes imposed on you with respect to the Initial Continued Coverage.

 9. Basic Life Insurance. The Company will (A) continue to provide current coverage under Basic Life Insurance for 2 years,
beginning the 1st of the month following the termination date and (B) if federal, state and/or local income and payroll taxes imposed on you with respect to such continued coverage, provide an additional tax
gross-up payment to cover all such estimated taxes. This coverage will be equivalent to one time(s) your base salary at time of termination. Thereafter, you have the right to convert the group basic life
insurance coverage on your life provided by the Company to an individual life insurance policy with a guaranteed premium rate. The coverage will be provided by Legal and General American Banner Life Insurance Company. We will provide you with the
contact information for the agent responsible for getting your coverage started.
