             FIXED ALLOWANCE
RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD 
 This Award Agreement, together with The Goldman Sachs Amended and Restated
Stock Incentive Plan (2015) (the “Plan”), governs your award of              Fixed Allowance Restricted Shares (your “Award”). You should read
carefully this entire Award Agreement, which includes the Award Statement and any attached Appendix. 
 ACCEPTANCE 

1. You Must Decide Whether to Accept this Award Agreement. To be eligible to receive your Award, you must by the date specified
(a) open and activate an Account and (b) agree to all the terms of your Award by executing the related signature card in accordance with its instructions. By executing the signature card, you confirm your agreement to all of the

 DOCUMENTS
THAT GOVERN YOUR AWARD; DEFINITIONS 
 2. The Plan.
Your Award is granted under the Plan, and the Plan’s terms apply to, and are a part of, this Award Agreement. 
 3. Your
Award Statement. The Award Statement delivered to you contains some of your Award’s specific terms. For example, it contains the number of Fixed Allowance Restricted Shares awarded to you and any applicable Transferability Dates. 

4. Definitions. Capitalized terms are defined in the Definitions Appendix, which also includes terms that are defined in the
Plan. 
 VESTING OF YOUR FIXED ALLOWANCE RESTRICTED
SHARES 
 5. Vesting. All of your Fixed Allowance Restricted Shares are Vested. When a Fixed Allowance
Restricted Share is Vested, it means that your continued active Employment is not required for that portion of Restricted Shares to become fully transferable without risk of forfeiture. The terms of this Award Agreement (including any applicable
Transfer Restrictions) continue to apply to Vested Fixed Allowance Restricted Shares. 
 TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS 

6. Transfer Restrictions. Fixed Allowance Restricted Shares will be subject to Transfer Restrictions until the Transferability
Date next to such number or percentage of Restricted Shares on your Award Statement. Any purported sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, hypothecation, fractionalization, hedge or other disposition in violation of the Transfer Restrictions
will be void. Within 30 Business Days after the Transferability Date listed on your Award Statement (or any other date on which the Transfer Restrictions are to be removed), GS Inc. will remove the Transfer Restrictions. The Committee or the SIP
Committee may select multiple dates within such 30-Business-Day period on which to remove Transfer Restrictions for all or a portion of the Restricted Shares with the same Transferability Date listed on the Award Statement, and all such dates will
be treated as a single Transferability Date for purposes of this Award. 

 DIVIDENDS 

7. Dividends. You will be entitled to receive on a current basis any regular cash dividend paid in respect of your Fixed
Allowance Restricted Shares. 
 EXCEPTIONS TO TRANSFERABILITY DATES 

8. Accelerated Release of Transfer Restrictions in the Event of a Qualifying Termination After a Change in Control, Conflicted Employment
or Death. In the event of your Qualifying Termination After a Change in Control, Conflicted Employment or death, each as described below, your Outstanding Award will be treated as described in this Paragraph 8. 

(a) You Have a Qualifying Termination After a Change in Control. If your Employment terminates when you meet the
requirements of a Qualifying Termination After a Change in Control, any Transfer Restrictions will cease to apply. 
 (b)
You Are Determined to Have Accepted Conflicted Employment. 
 (i) Generally. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in the Plan or otherwise, for purposes of this Award Agreement, “Conflicted Employment” means your employment at any U.S. Federal, state or local government, any non-U.S. government, any supranational or international
organization, any self-regulatory organization, or any agency or instrumentality of any such government or organization, or any other employer (other than an “Accounting Firm” within the meaning of SEC Rule 2-01(f)(2) of Regulation S-X or
any successor thereto) determined by the Committee, if, as a result of such employment, your continued holding of any Outstanding Award would result in an actual or perceived conflict of interest. If your Employment terminates solely because you
resign to accept Conflicted Employment or if, following your termination of Employment, you notify the Firm that you are accepting Conflicted Employment, any Transfer Restrictions will cease to apply as soon as practicable after the Committee has
received satisfactory documentation relating to your Conflicted Employment. 
 (ii) You May Have to Take Other Steps to
Address Conflicts of Interest. The Committee retains the authority to exercise its rights under the Award Agreement or the Plan (including Section 1.3.2 of the Plan) to take or require you to take other steps it determines in its sole
discretion to be necessary or appropriate to cure an actual or perceived conflict of interest (which may include a determination that the accelerated release of Transfer Restrictions described in Paragraph 8(b)(i) will not apply because such actions
are not necessary or appropriate to cure an actual or perceived conflict of interest). 
 (c) Death. If you die, any
Transfer Restrictions will cease to apply as soon as practicable after the date of death and after such documentation as may be requested by the Committee is provided to the Committee.

 OTHER TERMS, CONDITIONS AND
AGREEMENTS 
 9. Additional Terms, Conditions and Agreements. 

(a) You Must Satisfy Applicable Tax Withholding Requirements. Removal of the Transfer Restrictions is conditioned on
your satisfaction of any applicable withholding taxes in accordance with Section 3.2 of the Plan, which includes the Firm deducting or withholding amounts from any payment or distribution to you (which, notwithstanding Section 3.2.2 of the
Plan, may exceed the statutory minimum rate if and to the extent determined by the Committee or the SIP Committee). In addition, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Firm, in its sole discretion, may require you to provide amounts equal to
all or a portion of any Federal, state, local, foreign or other tax obligations imposed on you or the Firm in connection with the grant of this Award by requiring you to choose between remitting the amount (i) in cash (or through payroll
deduction or otherwise), (ii) in the form of proceeds from the Firm’s executing a sale of shares of Common Stock delivered to you under this Award or (iii) shares of Common Stock delivered to you pursuant to this Award. In addition,
if you are an individual with separate employment contracts (at any time during and/or after the Firm’s              fiscal year), the Firm, in its sole discretion, may require
you to provide for a reserve in an amount the Firm determines is advisable or necessary in connection with any actual, anticipated or potential tax consequences related to your separate employment contracts by requiring you to choose between
remitting such amount (i) in cash (or through payroll deduction or otherwise) or (ii) in the form of proceeds from the Firm’s executing a sale of shares of Common Stock delivered to you pursuant to this Award (or any other Outstanding
awards granted under the Plan or any predecessor or successor plan thereto). 
 (b) Firm May Deliver Cash or Other
Property Instead of Shares. In accordance with Section 1.3.2(i) of the Plan, in the sole discretion of the Committee, in lieu of all or any portion of the shares of Common Stock, the Firm may deliver cash, other securities, other awards
under the Plan or other property, and all references in this Award Agreement to deliveries of shares of Common Stock will include such deliveries of cash, other securities, other awards under the Plan or other property. 

(c) Amounts May Be Rounded to Avoid Fractional Shares. Restricted Shares subject to Transfer Restrictions may, in each
case, be rounded to avoid fractional shares of Common Stock. 
 (d) You May Be Required to Become a Party to the
Shareholders’ Agreement. Your rights to your Fixed Allowance Restricted Shares are conditioned on your becoming a party to any shareholders’ agreement to which other similarly situated employees (e.g., employees with a similar
title or position) of the Firm are required to be a party. If you are a party to the Amended and Restated Shareholders’ Agreement, shares of Common Stock delivered in respect of Fixed Allowance Restricted Shares will be subject to the Amended
and Restated Shareholders’ Agreement, but those shares of Common Stock will not be “Covered Shares” for purposes of Section 2.1(a) thereof. 

(e) Firm May Affix Legends and Place Stop Orders on Restricted Shares. GS Inc. may affix to Certificates representing
shares of Common Stock any legend that the Committee determines to be necessary or advisable (including to reflect any restrictions to which you may be subject under a separate agreement). GS Inc. may advise the transfer agent to place a stop order
against any legended shares of Common Stock. 

  
 -3- 

 (f) You Agree to Certain Consents, Terms and Conditions. By accepting this
Award you understand and agree that: 
 (i) You Agree to Certain Consents as a Condition to the Award. You have
expressly consented to all of the items listed in Section 3.3.3(d) of the Plan, including the Firm’s supplying to any third-party recordkeeper of the Plan or other person such personal information of yours as the Committee deems advisable
to administer the Plan, and you agree to provide any additional consents that the Committee determines to be necessary or advisable; 

(ii) You Are Subject to the Firm’s Policies, Rules and Procedures. You are subject to the Firm’s policies in
effect from time to time concerning trading in shares of Common Stock and hedging or pledging shares of Common Stock and equity-based compensation or other awards (including, without limitation, the Firm’s “Policies with Respect to
Personal Transactions Involving GS Securities and GS Equity Awards” or any successor policies), and confidential or proprietary information, and you will effect sales of shares of Common Stock in accordance with such rules and procedures as may
be adopted from time to time (which may include, without limitation, restrictions relating to the timing of sale requests, the manner in which sales are executed, pricing method, consolidation or aggregation of orders and volume limits determined by
the Firm); 
 (iii) You Are Responsible for Costs Associated with Your Award. You will be responsible for all
brokerage costs and other fees or expenses associated with your Fixed Allowance Restricted Shares, including those related to the sale of shares of Common Stock; 

(iv) You Will Be Deemed to Represent Your Compliance with All the Terms of Your Award if You Sell Shares. You will be
deemed to have represented and certified that you have complied with all of the terms of the Plan and this Award Agreement when you request the sale of shares of Common Stock following the release of Transfer Restrictions; 

(v) Firm May Deliver Your Award into an Escrow Account. The Firm may establish and maintain an escrow account on such
terms (which may include your executing any documents related to, and your paying for any costs associated with, such account) as it may deem necessary or appropriate, and the delivery of shares of Common Stock (including Restricted Shares) or the
payment of cash or other property may initially be made into and held in that escrow account until such time as the Committee has received such documentation as it may have requested or until the Committee has determined that any other conditions or
restrictions on delivery of shares of Common Stock, cash or other property required by this Award Agreement have been satisfied; 

(vi) You Must Comply with Applicable Deadlines and Procedures to Appeal Determinations Made by the Committee, the SIP
Committee or SIP Administrators. In order to appeal a determination by the Committee, the SIP Committee, the SIP Administrators, or any of their delegates or designees, you must submit a written request for the appeal within 180 days after
receipt of any such determination. You must exhaust all administrative remedies before seeking to resolve a dispute through arbitration pursuant to Paragraph 12 and Section 3.17 of the Plan; and 

(vii) You Agree that Covered Persons Will Not Have Liability. In addition to and without limiting the generality of the
provisions of Section 1.3.5 of the Plan, neither the Firm nor any Covered Person will have any liability to you or any other person for any action taken or omitted in respect of this or any other Award. 

  
 -4- 

 10. Non-transferability. Except as otherwise may be provided in this Paragraph 10
or as otherwise may be provided by the Committee, the limitations on transferability set forth in Section 3.5 of the Plan will apply to this Award. Any purported transfer or assignment in violation of the provisions of this Paragraph 10 or
Section 3.5 of the Plan will be void. The Committee may adopt procedures pursuant to which some or all recipients of Fixed Allowance Restricted Shares may transfer some or all of their Fixed Allowance Restricted Shares (which will continue to
be subject to Transfer Restrictions until the Transferability Date) through a gift for no consideration to any immediate family member, a trust or other estate planning vehicle approved by the Committee or SIP Committee in which the recipient and/or
the recipient’s immediate family members in the aggregate have 100% of the beneficial interest. 
 11. Right of Offset.
The obligation to pay dividends or to remove the Transfer Restrictions under this Award Agreement is subject to Section 3.4 of the Plan, which provides for the Firm’s right to offset against such obligation any outstanding amounts you owe
to the Firm and any amounts the Committee deems appropriate pursuant to any tax equalization policy or agreement.

EXPRESSLY INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE, PROVIDE AMONG OTHER THINGS THAT ANY
DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM BETWEEN THE FIRM AND YOU ARISING OUT OF
OR RELATING TO OR CONCERNING THE PLAN OR THIS AWARD AGREEMENT WILL
BE FINALLY SETTLED BY ARBITRATION IN NEW YORK CITY, PURSUANT TO THE
TERMS MORE FULLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 3.17 OF THE PLAN; PROVIDED
THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL PRECLUDE YOU FROM FILING A CHARGE WITH OR
PARTICIPATING IN ANY INVESTIGATION OR PROCEEDING CONDUCTED BY ANY GOVERNMENTAL
AUTHORITY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE SEC AND THE EQUAL EMPLOYMENT
OPPORTUNITY COMMISSION. 
 (b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no
arbitrator will have the authority to consider class, collective or representative claims, to order consolidation or to join different claimants or grant relief other than on an individual basis to the individual claimant involved. 

(c) Notwithstanding any applicable forum rules to the contrary, to the extent there is a question of enforceability of this
Award Agreement arising from a challenge to the arbitrator’s jurisdiction or to the arbitrability of a claim, it will be decided by a court and not an arbitrator. 

(d) All references to the New York Stock Exchange in Section 3.17 of the Plan will be read as references to the Financial
Industry Regulatory Authority.

THE GOLDMAN SACHS GROUP, INC. 

             YEAR-END
PERFORMANCE-BASED RSU AWARD 
 This Award Agreement governs your award of performance-based RSUs
(your “Award” or “PSUs”) granted under The Goldman Sachs Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan (2015) (the “Plan”) in accordance with The Goldman Sachs Long-Term Performance Incentive Plan
(the “LTIP”). You should read carefully this entire Award Agreement, which includes the Award Statement and any attached Appendix. 

ACCEPTANCE 
 1. You
Must Decide Whether to Accept this Award Agreement. To be eligible to receive your Award, you must by the date specified (a) open and activate an Account and (b) agree to all the terms of your Award by executing the related signature
card in accordance with its instructions. By executing the signature card, you confirm your agreement to all of the terms of this Award Agreement, including the arbitration and choice of forum provisions in Paragraph 16. 

DOCUMENTS THAT GOVERN YOUR AWARD; DEFINITIONS 

2. The Plan and LTIP. Your Award is granted under the Plan in accordance with the LTIP, and the terms of both apply to, and are a
part of, this Award Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the LTIP and the Plan, the terms of the Plan will control. 

3. Your Award Statement. The Award Statement delivered to you contains some of your Award’s specific terms. For example, it
contains the number of PSUs subject to this Award, the Performance Period and the Performance Goal applicable to your Award. [It also contains the Determination Date and the Settlement Date for your Award and the Transferability Date for any Shares
at Risk that may be delivered to you in respect of any Settlement Amount that you may earn.] The number of PSUs on your Award Statement is not necessarily the number of PSUs in respect of which the Settlement Amount will be earned, but is merely the
basis for determining the amount (if any) that will be delivered to you. 
 4. Definitions. Capitalized terms are defined in
the Award Statement or the Definitions Appendix, which also includes terms that are defined in the LTIP and the Plan. 
 VESTING
OF YOUR PSUS 
 5. Vesting. Your PSUs are Vested. When a PSU is Vested, it
means only that your continued active Employment is not required to earn delivery in respect of that PSU. Vesting does not mean you have a non-forfeitable right to the Vested portion of your Award. The terms of this Award Agreement
(including conditions to delivery and satisfaction of the Performance Goal) continue to apply to your Award, and failure to meet such terms may result in the termination of this Award (as a result of which no delivery in respect of such Vested PSUs
would be made). 
 PERFORMANCE GOAL 

6. Performance. The Settlement Amount is dependent, and may vary based, on achievement of the Performance Goal over the
Performance Period. On the Determination Date, the Firm will determine whether or not, and to what extent, the Performance Goal for that Performance Period has been satisfied. All your rights with respect to the Settlement Amount (and any Dividend
Equivalent Payments) are dependent on the extent to which the Performance Goal is achieved, and any rights to 

 
delivery in respect of your Outstanding PSUs immediately will terminate and no Settlement Amount will be delivered in respect of such PSUs upon the Committee’s determination, in its sole
discretion, that the Performance Goal has not been satisfied to the extent necessary to result in delivery in respect of the PSUs. 

SETTLEMENT AMOUNT 

7. Settlement. 
 (a)
In General. Subject to satisfaction of the terms of this Award, including satisfaction of the Performance Goal, on the Settlement Date, you will receive delivery (less applicable withholding as described in Paragraph 13(a)) of the Settlement
Amount and payment of any Dividend Equivalent Payments as further described in this Award Agreement and in your Award Statement. Until such delivery and payment, you have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor and you do not have any rights
as a shareholder of GS Inc. with respect to either the PSUs or the Settlement Amount. Without limiting the Committee’s authority under Section 2(b) of the LTIP, the Firm may accelerate any Settlement Date by up to 30 days. 

(b) [Form of Delivery. The Settlement Amount will be delivered as follows: 

(i)             % in the form of cash that will be paid on the Settlement
Date. 
 (ii)             % in the form of Shares at Risk. 

(c) Shares at Risk. All of the Shares delivered (after application of tax withholding) to you in respect of the Settlement Amount will
be Shares at Risk subject to Transfer Restrictions until the Transferability Date. Any purported sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, hypothecation, fractionalization, hedge or other disposition in violation of the Transfer Restrictions on
Shares at Risk will be void. Within 30 Business Days after the Transferability Date listed on your Award Statement (or any other date on which the Transfer Restrictions are to be removed), GS Inc. will remove the Transfer Restrictions. The Committee
or the SIP Committee may select multiple dates within such 30-Business-Day period on which to remove Transfer Restrictions for all or a portion of the Shares at Risk with the same Transferability Date listed on the Award Statement, and all such
dates will be treated as a single Transferability Date for purposes of this Award.] 
 DIVIDEND EQUIVALENT
RIGHTS 
 8. Dividend Equivalent Rights. To the extent described in your Award Statement, each PSU will
include a Dividend Equivalent Right, which will be subject to the provisions of Section 2.8 of the Plan. Accordingly, for each of your Outstanding PSUs with respect to which delivery is made under the Settlement Amount, you will be entitled to
payments under Dividend Equivalent Rights equal to any regular cash dividend paid by GS Inc. in respect of a Share the record date for which occurs on or after the Date of Grant. The payment to you of amounts under Dividend Equivalent Rights (less
applicable withholding as described in Paragraph 13(a)) is conditioned upon the delivery under the Settlement Amount in respect of the PSUs to which such Dividend Equivalent Rights relate, and you will have no right to receive any Dividend
Equivalent Payments relating to PSUs for which you do not receive delivery under the Settlement Amount (including, without limitation, due to a failure to satisfy the Performance Goal). Dividend Equivalent Payments will be paid on the Settlement
Date.

Transfer Restrictions on Shares at Risk] or (b) make payment of cash or deliver Shares at Risk into an escrow account in accordance with Paragraph 13(f)(v). [Paragraph 12 (relating to certain circumstances under which release of Transfer
Restrictions may be accelerated) provides for exceptions to one or more provisions of this Paragraph 9.]

applicable to you, any offer letter, employment agreement or any shareholders’ agreement relating to the Firm. Your failure to pay or reimburse the Firm, on demand, for any amount you owe to the Firm will constitute (A) failure to meet an
obligation you have under an agreement, regardless of whether such obligation arises under a written agreement, and/or (B) a material violation of Firm policy constituting Cause.

whether you actually hold such position at the relevant time).]

EXPRESSLY INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE, PROVIDE AMONG OTHER THINGS THAT ANY
DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM BETWEEN THE FIRM AND YOU ARISING OUT OF
OR RELATING TO OR CONCERNING THE LTIP, THE PLAN OR THIS AWARD
AGREEMENT WILL BE FINALLY SETTLED BY ARBITRATION IN NEW YORK CITY,
PURSUANT TO THE TERMS MORE FULLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 6(h) OF
THE LTIP AND SECTION 3.17 OF THE PLAN; PROVIDED THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL
PRECLUDE YOU FROM FILING A CHARGE WITH OR PARTICIPATING IN ANY
INVESTIGATION OR PROCEEDING CONDUCTED BY ANY GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY, INCLUDING BUT

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no arbitrator will have the authority to consider class, collective or representative
claims, to order consolidation or to join different claimants or grant relief other than on an individual basis to the individual claimant involved. 

(c) Notwithstanding any applicable forum rules to the contrary, to the extent there is a question of enforceability of this Award Agreement
arising from a challenge to the arbitrator’s jurisdiction or to the arbitrability of a claim, it will be decided by a court and not an arbitrator. 

(d) All references to the New York Stock Exchange in Section 6(h) of the LTIP and Section 3.17 of the Plan will be read as references
to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. 
 (e) The Federal Arbitration Act governs interpretation and enforcement of all arbitration

18. Compliance of Award Agreement, the Plan and LTIP with Section 409A. The provisions of this Paragraph 18 apply to you
only if you are a U.S. taxpayer. 
 (a) This Award Agreement, the Plan and the LTIP provisions that apply to this Award are intended and will
be construed to comply with Section 409A (including the requirements applicable to, or the conditions for exemption from treatment as, 409A Deferred Compensation), whether by reason of short-term deferral treatment or other exceptions or
provisions. The Committee will have full authority to give effect to this intent. To the extent necessary to give effect to this intent, in the case of any conflict or potential inconsistency between the provisions of the LTIP (including
Section 2(b) thereof), the Plan (including Sections 1.3.2 and 2.1 thereof) and this Award Agreement, the provisions of this Award Agreement will govern, and in the case of any conflict or potential inconsistency between this Paragraph 18 and
the other provisions of this Award Agreement, this Paragraph 18 will govern. 

  
 -10- 

 (b) Settlement will not be delayed beyond the date on which all applicable conditions or
restrictions on settlement in respect of your PSUs required by this Award Agreement (including those specified in Paragraph 11(c) (execution of waiver and release of claims agreement to pay associated tax liability) and the consents and other items
specified in Section 3.3 of the Plan and Section 6(c) of the LTIP) are satisfied. To the extent that any portion of this Award is intended to satisfy the requirements for short-term deferral treatment under Section 409A, settlement in
respect of such portion will occur by the March 15 coinciding with the last day of the applicable “short-term deferral” period described in Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(4) in order for settlement to be within the short-term deferral
exception unless, in order to permit all applicable conditions or restrictions on settlement to be satisfied, the Committee elects, pursuant to Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(4)(i)(D) or otherwise as may be permitted in accordance with Section 409A,
to delay settlement to a later date within the same calendar year or to such later date as may be permitted under Section 409A, including Reg. § 1.409A-2(b)(7) (in conjunction with Section 6(d) of the LTIP and Section 3.21.3 of
the Plan pertaining to Code Section 162(m)) and Reg. § 1.409A-3(d). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Award includes a “series of installment payments” as described in Reg. § 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii), your right to the series of
installment payments will be treated as a right to a series of separate payments and not as a right to a single payment. 
 (c)
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.3.2(i) of the Plan, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A, any delivery or payment [(including in the form of Shares at Risk or other property)] that the Firm may make in respect of
your PSUs will not have the effect of deferring payment, delivery, income inclusion, or a substantial risk of forfeiture, beyond the date on which such payment, delivery or inclusion would occur or such risk of forfeiture would lapse, with respect
to the payment or delivery that would otherwise have been made (unless the Committee elects a later date for this purpose pursuant to Reg. 1.409A-1(b)(4)(i)(D) or otherwise as may be permitted under Section 409A, including and to the extent
applicable, the subsequent election provisions of Section 409A(a)(4)(C) of the Code and Reg. 1.409A-2(b)). 
 (d) Paragraph 15,
Section 6(l) of the LTIP and Section 3.4 of the Plan will not apply to Awards that are 409A Deferred Compensation except to the extent permitted under Section 409A. 

(e) Settlement in respect of any portion of the Award may be made, if and to the extent elected by the Committee, later than the relevant
Settlement Date or other date or period specified hereinabove (but, in the case of any Award that constitutes 409A Deferred Compensation, only to the extent that the later payment or delivery, as applicable, is permitted under Section 409A).

 (f) You understand and agree that you are solely responsible for the payment of any taxes and penalties due pursuant to Section 409A,
but in no event will you be permitted to designate, directly or indirectly, the taxable year of the payment. 
 19. Compliance of
Award Agreement and LTIP with Section 162(m). If you are or become considered by GS Inc. to be one of its “covered employees” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, then you will be subject to Section 6(d)
of the LTIP and Section 3.21.3 of the Plan, as a result of which delivery of the Settlement Amount and payment of the Dividend Equivalent Payments may be delayed. In addition, to the extent provided in your Award Statement and, to the extent
that Section 409A is applicable to you, consistent with Reg § 1.409A-2(b), the Firm may delay any Settlement Date.

further that the Committee expressly reserves its rights to amend the Award Agreement, the LTIP and the Plan as described in Section 2(b)(viii)(1) of the LTIP and Sections 1.3.2(h)(1), (2) and (4) of the Plan. A modification that impacts the tax

 DEFINITIONS APPENDIX 

The following capitalized terms are used in this Award Agreement with the following meanings: 

(a) “409A Deferred Compensation” means a “deferral of compensation” or “deferred compensation” as those
terms are defined in the regulations under Section 409A. 
 (b) “Associate With a Covered Enterprise” means that you
(i) form, or acquire a 5% or greater equity ownership, voting or profit participation interest in, any Covered Enterprise or (ii) associate in any capacity (including association as an officer, employee, partner, director, consultant,
agent or advisor) with any Covered Enterprise. Associate With a Covered Enterprise may include, as determined in the discretion of the Committee, (i) becoming the subject of any publicly available announcement or report of a pending or future
association with a Covered Enterprise and (ii) unpaid associations, including an association in contemplation of future employment. “Association With a Covered Enterprise” will have its correlative meaning. 

(c) “Covered Enterprise” means an existing or planned business enterprise that competes with the Firm (which, for this purpose
means offering products or services that are the same as or similar to those offered by the Firm (“Firm Products or Services”)), or reasonably may be expected to do so. The enterprises covered by this definition include enterprises that
offer Firm Products or Services directly, as well as those that do so indirectly by ownership or control (e.g., by owning, being owned by, or being under common ownership with an enterprise that offers Firm Products or Services). An
enterprise will be treated as providing Firm Products or Services if, solely by way of example, it provides products or services associated with investment banking, public or private finance, lending, financial advisory services, private investing
(for anyone other than you or your family members), private banking, commercial banking, merchant banking, asset or hedge fund management, insurance or reinsurance underwriting or brokerage, property management, or securities, futures, commodities,
energy, derivatives or currency brokerage, sales, lending, custody, clearance, settlement or trading. A Competitive Enterprise is a Covered Enterprise. An enterprise that offers, or may reasonably be expected to offer, Firm Products or Services
is a Covered Enterprise irrespective of whether the enterprise is a customer, client or counterparty of the Firm, and, because the Firm is a global enterprise, irrespective of where the Covered Enterprise is physically located.

whether or not, and to what extent, the Performance Goal was achieved for the Performance Period.

Insurance Corporation or any successor thereto. 
 (g) “Failed to Consider Risk” means that you participated in the
structuring or marketing of any product or service, or participated on behalf of the Firm or any of its clients in the purchase or sale of any security or other property, in any case without appropriate consideration of the risk to the Firm or the
broader financial system as a whole (for example, where you have improperly analyzed such risk or where you have failed sufficiently to raise concerns about such risk) and, as a result of such action or omission, the Committee determines there has
been, or reasonably could be expected to be, a material adverse impact on the Firm, your business unit or the broader financial system.
