On March 15, 2023, Mastech Digital, Inc. (the "Company") amended its Fourth Amended and Restated Executive Employment Agreement, dated as of March 20, 2019 (the "Gupta Employment Agreement"), with Vivek Gupta, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and President, by replacing the prior compensation schedule attached thereto with a revised compensation schedule (the "Revised Gupta Compensation Schedule").

The Revised Gupta Compensation Schedule is effective April 1, 2023 and amends the Gupta Employment Agreement by providing that (i) Mr. Gupta's base salary shall be $585,000 per year, subject to review and modification annually by the Company; and (ii) Mr. Gupta is eligible to earn an annual performance-based cash bonus of $282,000 (the "Gupta Performance-Based Cash Bonus") for the achievement of certain financial and operational targets, which targets, and the bonus dollars tied to such targets, will be determined by the Company's Board of Directors on an annual basis.

Under the Revised Gupta Compensation Schedule, the Gupta Performance-Based Cash Bonus for the 2023 calendar year will be based on (i) the Company's Consolidated Revenues; (ii) the Company's Consolidated Gross Profit Dollars; (iii) the Company's Non-GAAP Diluted Earnings Per Share; and (iv) the Company's Offshore Staffing December 2023 Annual Run-rate Revenue.

Except as amended by the Revised Gupta Compensation Schedule, the terms of the Gupta Employment Agreement are unchanged and remain in full force and effect.

<u>Amendment to Employment Agreement with John J. Cronin, Jr., Chief Financial Officer.</u>

Cronin, Jr., the Company's Chief Financial Officer, by replacing the prior compensation schedule attached thereto with a revised compensation schedule (the "Revised Cronin Compensation Schedule").

The Revised Cronin Compensation Schedule is effective April 1, 2023 and amends the Cronin Employment Agreement by providing that (i) Mr. Cronin's base salary shall be $450,000 per year, subject to review and modification annually by the Company; and (ii) Mr. Cronin is eligible to earn an annual performance-based cash bonus of $184,000 (the "Cronin Performance-Based Cash Bonus") for the achievement of certain financial and operational targets, which targets, and the bonus dollars tied to such targets, will be determined by the Company's Chief Executive Officer on an annual basis.

Under the Revised Cronin Compensation Schedule, the Cronin Performance-Based Cash Bonus for the 2023 calendar year will be based on (i) the Company's Consolidated Revenue; (ii) the Company's Non-GAAP Diluted Earnings Per Share; and (iii) the Company's Consolidated Gross Profit Dollars.

Except as amended by the Revised Cronin Compensation Schedule, the terms of the Cronin Employment Agreement are unchanged and remain in full force and effect.

The foregoing descriptions of the Revised Gupta Compensation Schedule and the Revised Cronin Compensation Schedule do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of (i) the Revised Gupta Compensation Schedule; and (ii) the Revised Cronin Compensation Schedule, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

## Exhibit 10.1

**Exhibit 10.1** 

**<u>Schedule A-7</u>**

This <u>Schedule A-7</u> dated March 15, 2023, is issued pursuant to the Fourth Amended and Restated Executive Employment Agreement by and among Company, Parent and Executive, dated March 20, 2019 (the "Agreement"), and shall be incorporated therein and governed by the terms and conditions of such Agreement. This <u>Schedule A-7</u> is effective April 1, 2023, and is intended to replace any previously issued <u>Schedule A</u>.

1. <u>Position</u>: Chief Executive Officer and President. Executive shall report in such capacity to the Board.

2. <u>Base Salary</u>: $585,000 per year.

3. <u>Bonus</u>: Executive will be entitled to an annual performance-based cash bonus of $282,000, for the achievement of certain financial and operational targets. These targets, and the bonus dollars tied to such targets, will be determined and communicated to you by the Board on an annual basis. For the 2023 calendar year your bonus will be determined on the following performance measures:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. MHH Consolidated Revenues;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. MHH Consolidated Gross Profit Dollars;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c. MHH Non-GAPP Diluted Earnings Per Share; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d. Offshore Staffing December 2023 Annual Run-rate Revenue.

The target amount for each measure for the 2023 calendar year is set forth on *<u>Appendix 1</u>* to this schedule. Should Company fail to achieve the target amount for the above performance measures, Executive's annual performance-based bonus, if any, shall be based upon Company's evaluation of the percentage of the target amount achieved during the year. Conversely, should Company's performance exceed the target amount for the above performance measures, Executive's annual performance-based bonus may exceed the bonus amount stated above, based upon Company's evaluation of the percentage of the over-achievement of such target amount(s). All bonuses will be paid by March 15, 2023, following the completion of Company's year-end audit. If Executive leaves Company voluntarily, or is terminated with Cause, before December 31, 2023, Executive will not be eligible for a bonus. If Executive is terminated by Company during 2023 without Cause, Executive's bonus calculation will be based on Company's annual results (calculated as though Executive were still an employee) and a prorated bonus will be paid considering the days in 2023 in which Executive was employed by Company divided by 365.

4. <u>Benefits</u>: Executive is eligible for standard company benefits in the same manner as other executives of Company.

5. <u>Expenses</u>: Company will reimburse all properly documented expenses reasonably related to Executive's performance of Executive's duties hereunder.
