On February 21, 2023 the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Simpson Manufacturing Co., Inc. (the "Company") approved the Simpson Manufacturing Co., Inc. Nonqualified Plan, effective April 3, 2023 (the "Plan"), for certain employees, including the Company's named executive officers, and non-employee directors. The Plan is an unfunded, nonqualified deferred compensation plan maintained primarily for the purpose of deferring compensation already earned for a select group of management employees and non-employee directors.

United States employees of the Company or its affiliates who are classified as a Vice President or higher ("Eligible Employees") and non-employee directors of the Board ("Eligible Directors") are eligible to participate in the Plan. Eligible Employees may elect to defer a portion of their annual base salary and any annual bonus, performance share units and restricted share units awarded to them. Eligible Directors may elect to defer their cash compensation and shares of common stock of the Company awarded during the Plan Year. A participant will be 100% vested at all times in all amounts deferred under the Plan. The Company does not make any contributions to the Plan.

Each participant's deferrals will be credited to a bookkeeping account established for them under the Plan. Participants will have the opportunity to choose deemed investments of their deferrals among various notional investment options, including Company stock.

Payment of Plan accounts will be made in a lump sum or installments over three, five, or ten years, as elected by the participant and will generally occur on March 15 of the calendar year after the calendar year in which a participant separates from service with the Company, except that payments of deferred performance share units will not be paid before the end of their applicable performance period. The Plan requires a payment delay of six months following separation of service if the participant is a "specified employee" under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. Payment under the Plan will also be made upon a change in control of the Company.

The obligations of the Company under the Plan will be general unsecured obligations of the Company to be paid from the general assets of the Company, although the Company may establish a trust to hold amounts which the Company may use to satisfy Plan distributions from time to time. Any such trust will remain subject to the Company's creditors. The Company's Retirement Plan Committee will act as Plan administrator.
