 2 

 
assertion, and in the case of non-willful behavior under clauses (i), (iii), (iv), or (vi), Executive has failed to cure within 30 days of written notice

written notice, an opportunity is provided to Executive and his counsel to be heard before the Board with respect to the matters described in the written notice, (4) any resolution or other Board action held with respect to any deliberation
regarding or decision to terminate Executive for Cause is duly adopted by a vote of a majority of the entire Board of the Corporation at a meeting of the Board called and held, and (5) Executive is promptly provided with a copy of the

policy or any Corporation instruction to Executive that would permit Executive to terminate this Agreement under Section 2.7(a) because such policy or instruction constitutes Good Reason. 

(j) “Change of Control”: except as may be otherwise required, if at all, under Code Section 409A,

immediately after such transaction, or (B) the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation; or 

(iii) a change in a majority of the Board within a 12-month period unless the

nominations are approved by a Board committee rather than the Board) then still in office who were in office at the beginning of the 12-month period. 

For the purposes of the definition of “Change of Control,” the term “person” shall mean any
individual, corporation, partnership, group, association, or other person, as such term is defined in Section 13(d)(3) or Section 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, other than the Corporation, a subsidiary of the
Corporation, or any employee benefit plan(s) sponsored or maintained by the Corporation or any subsidiary thereof, and the term “beneficial owner” shall have the meaning given the term in Rule
13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. 

  
 3 

 For the purposes of clarity, a transaction shall not constitute a Change of
Control if its principal purpose is to change the state of the Corporation’s incorporation, create a holding company that would be owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held the Corporation’s securities immediately
before such transaction, or is another transaction of other similar effect. 
 Notwithstanding the preceding provisions, in
the event that any compensation paid under this Agreement is deemed to be deferred compensation subject to (and not exempt from) the provisions of Code Section 409A, then payment to be made upon a Change of Control may be permitted, in the
Board’s discretion, upon the occurrence of one or more of the following events (as they are defined and interpreted under Code Section 409A): (A) a change in the ownership of the Corporation; (B) a change in effective control of the

Executive’s return to full duty is indeterminable, is indefinite, or is likely to exceed a 90-day period; provided, however, that if Executive and the Corporation cannot agree upon a mutually acceptable

reimbursement policies. The amount of reimbursable expenses incurred in one taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year. Each category of reimbursement shall be paid as soon as administratively
practicable, but in no event shall any such reimbursement be paid after the last day of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred. No right to reimbursement is subject to liquidation or exchange for
other benefits.

elects, the Corporation shall pay to Executive an additional amount necessary to put Executive in substantially the same after-tax position that he would have been in had he not elected to include such
disability insurance premiums in income (taking into account all federal, state, and local income and employment taxes due as a result of the inclusion of such disability insurance premiums in income). Payment of the additional amount, if any, shall
be made to Executive in the same pay periods in which the disability insurance premiums are included in income.

to Executive’s Average Bonus as determined as of the Termination Date, to be paid over the Severance Period, (D) a pro-rata portion of the Annual Bonus for the year in which Executive’s

such amount by the portion of such year Executive was employed by the Corporation), plus, if Executive’s termination occurs after year-end but before the Annual Bonus for the preceding year is paid, the
Annual Bonus for the preceding year, to the extent earned, and (E) COBRA premiums as described in Section 2.7(f).

on or after 45 calendar days following the Termination Date. Any additional amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.7(a)(iii) attributable to a Change of Control occurring within six (6) months following Executive’s termination of
employment shall be added to the remaining balance of the amounts payable under Section 2.7(a)(ii)(B)–(C) and shall be paid as provided in this Section 2.7(a)(iv) over the remainder of the Severance Period. The payment required by

 (v) Additional Payments. In addition, the Corporation will pay to Executive all unreimbursed expenses incurred by
Executive prior to his termination pursuant to Section 2.7(a) for which Executive is entitled to reimbursement pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.5(c). Further, during the Severance Period, the Corporation shall pay reasonable

employment hereunder for Cause upon written notice to Executive and Executive’s failure to cure during any applicable cure period as set forth in this Agreement. If Executive’s employment is terminated for Cause, the Corporation will pay
to Executive (i) accrued but unpaid Salary through the Termination Date (payable 45 calendar days after the Termination Date), and (ii) all unreimbursed expenses incurred by Executive prior to the Termination Date for which Executive is
entitled to reimbursement pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.5(c). Upon termination of Executive’s employment pursuant to this Section 2.7(b), except for the payments required by this Section 2.7(b) or as required by
applicable law, the Corporation will have no additional obligations to Executive hereunder or otherwise and, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement (including but not limited to Executive’s obligations under Article III herein), this
Agreement will terminate as of the Termination Date. 
 (c) Voluntary Termination by Executive. If Executive
voluntarily terminates his employment, the Corporation will pay to Executive (i) accrued but unpaid Salary through the Termination Date (payable as and at such times as Executive would have otherwise received his Salary had he remained an
employee of the Corporation (that is, in accordance with Corporation payroll practices)), (ii) if Executive’s termination occurs after year-end but before the Annual Bonus for the preceding year is paid,
the Annual Bonus for the preceding year, to the extent earned (payable as and at such time as Executive would have otherwise received his Annual Bonus had he remained an employee of the Corporation), and (iii) all expenses incurred by Executive
prior to the Termination Date for 

  
 12 

 
which Executive is entitled to reimbursement pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.5(c). Upon termination of Executive’s employment pursuant to this Section 2.7(c), except
for the payments required by this Section 2.7(c) or as required by applicable law, the Corporation will have no additional obligations to Executive hereunder or otherwise and, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement (including but not
limited to Executive’s obligations under Article III herein), this Agreement will terminate. 
 (d) Termination by
Death of Executive. If Executive dies during the Employment Period, the Corporation will pay to such Person or Persons as Executive may designate in writing or, in the absence of such designation, to the estate of Executive (as the case may be,
the “Estate”) the sum of (i) accrued but unpaid Salary earned prior to Executive’s death, (ii) expenses incurred by Executive prior to his death for which Executive is entitled to reimbursement pursuant to and
in accordance with Section 2.5(c), and (iii) a pro-rata portion of the Annual Bonus for the year in which Executive’s death occurs, to the extent earned (such amount to be calculated by
determining the amount of the Annual Bonus earned as of the end of the year in which the death occurs and pro-rating such amount by the portion of such year Executive was employed by the Corporation), plus, if
Executive’s death occurs after year-end but before the Annual Bonus for the preceding year is paid, the Annual Bonus for the preceding year, to the extent earned. The payments described in clauses
(i) and (ii) in the preceding sentence will be made within 45 calendar days following the date of Executive’s death. Any Annual Bonus will be paid as and at such times as Executive would have otherwise received his Annual Bonus had he
remained an employee of the Corporation. This Agreement in all other respects will terminate upon the death of Executive, and all rights of Executive and his heirs, legatees, descendants, testamentary executors, and testamentary administrators
regarding compensation and other benefits under this Agreement shall cease. 
 (e) Termination for Disability.
Executive acknowledges and agrees that his position is unique and critical to the Corporation and that the Corporation would suffer grievous economic injury or other undue hardship if Executive becomes unable to perform one or more essential
functions of his job due to a Disability, as defined by Section 1.1(r). The parties, therefore, agree to the following termination provisions to avoid grievous economic injury and/or other undue hardship to the Corporation in the event of the
Disability of Executive. 
 (i) Notice of Termination. Subject to a municipal, state, or federal law expressly
providing to the contrary, the Corporation will have the right to terminate Executive’s employment hereunder at any time upon the Disability of Executive during the Employment Period. 

(ii) Severance Payments. If Executive’s employment is terminated because of Executive’s Disability, the
Corporation will pay to Executive (A) accrued but unpaid Salary through the Termination Date, (B) an amount equal to Executive’s Salary in effect on the Termination Date, to be paid over the Severance Period, (C) an amount equal
to Executive’s Average Bonus as determined as of the Termination Date, to be paid over the Severance Period, (D) a pro-rata portion of the Annual Bonus for the year in which Executive’s
termination due to Disability 

  
 13 

 
occurs, to the extent earned (such amount to be calculated by determining the amount of the Annual Bonus earned as of the end of the year in which Executive’s termination due to Disability
occurs and pro-rating such amount by the portion of such year Executive was employed by the Corporation), plus, if Executive’s termination due to Disability occurs after
year-end but before the Annual Bonus for the preceding year is paid, the Annual Bonus for the preceding year, to the extent earned, and (E) COBRA premiums as described in Section 2.7(f). 

(iii) Timing of Payments. The payment required by Section 2.7(e)(ii)(A) will be made as and at such times as
Executive would have otherwise received his Salary had he remained an employee of the Corporation (that is, in accordance with Corporation payroll practices). The payments required by Section 2.7(e)(ii)(B)–(C) will be made in equal
installments over the Severance Period as and at such times as Executive would have otherwise received his Salary had he remained an employee of the Corporation (that is, in accordance with Corporation payroll practices), subject to execution of an
irrevocable release as provided in Section 4.18 and provided that such amounts shall be paid commencing with the first payroll date that occurs on or after 45 calendar days following the Termination Date. The payment required by
Section 2.7(e)(ii)(D) will be made as and at such time as Executive would have otherwise received his Annual Bonus had he remained an employee of the Corporation, subject to execution of an irrevocable release as provided in Section 4.18.

 (iv) Additional Payments. In addition, the Corporation will pay to Executive all unreimbursed expenses incurred by
Executive prior to his termination pursuant to Section 2.7(e) for which Executive is entitled to reimbursement pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.5(c). Further, during the Severance Period, the Corporation shall pay reasonable
outplacement service expenses of Executive in an amount not to exceed $25,000. 
 (v) Offset for Disability Benefits.
The payment obligations of the Corporation set forth in this Section 2.7(e) will be reduced by the amount of any disability benefits paid to Executive pursuant to any disability insurance, plan, or policy provided and paid for by the
Corporation. In the event that any such disability insurance, plan, or policy pays disability benefits to Executive that are not subject to local, state, or federal taxation, the payment obligations of the Corporation set forth in this
Section 2.7(e) will be reduced by an amount equal to the gross taxable amount that the Corporation would have been required to pay in order to yield the net, after-tax benefit that Executive actually
received pursuant to the disability insurance, plan, or policy. 
 (vi) Liquidated Damages. The payments to be made in
accordance with this Section 2.7(e) will constitute liquidated damages, and Executive will not be entitled to any other compensation from the Corporation under this Agreement or otherwise except as provided in this Section 2.7(e). 

  
 14 

 (vii) Compliance with Article III. The Corporation’s obligation
to make any payments under this Section 2.7(e), except for accrued but unpaid Salary through the Termination Date, any Annual Bonus that was previously earned but unpaid as of the Termination Date, and reimbursement of unreimbursed expenses, is
contingent upon Executive’s compliance with Article III herein, and Executive and the Corporation agree that the Corporation shall have the right, in addition to any other rights of the Corporation, to terminate or suspend such payments in the
event of Executive’s breach of Article III herein. 
 (viii) Termination of Agreement. Upon termination of
Executive’s employment pursuant to this Section 2.7(e), except for the payments required by this Section 2.7(e) or as required by applicable law, the Corporation will have no additional obligations to Executive hereunder or otherwise
and, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement (including but not limited to Executive’s obligations under Article III herein), this Agreement will terminate. 

(f) Payment of COBRA Premiums; No Effect on Vested and Accrued Benefits. During the Severance Period and provided that
Executive timely and properly elects health continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), the Corporation shall reimburse Executive for the monthly COBRA premium paid by
Executive for himself and his dependents for continuation coverage under the Corporation’s group medical plan; provided, however, that if at any time during the Severance Period Executive becomes eligible to receive health insurance from a
subsequent employer or is no longer eligible to receive COBRA continuation coverage under the Corporation’s group medical plan, the Corporation’s obligation to continue to reimburse Executive for his COBRA premium payments shall terminate
immediately. Such reimbursement shall be paid to Executive on the 20th day of the month immediately following the month in which Executive timely remits the required COBRA premium payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein and subject
to the terms of any benefit plan or program of the Corporation, no termination of Executive’s employment with the Corporation shall in any manner whatsoever result in any termination, curtailment, reduction, or cessation of any vested benefits
or other entitlements to which Executive is entitled under the terms of any such benefit plan or program of the Corporation in respect of which Executive is a participant as of the Termination Date. 

(g) No Mitigation; No Offset. In the event of any termination of Executive’s employment under this
Section 2.7, Executive shall be under no obligation to seek other employment and there shall be no offset against amounts due Executive under this Agreement on account of any compensation attributable to any subsequent employment that he may
obtain, except as specifically provided in this Section 2.7. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, any compensation and/or benefits payable to Executive under any other severance or
change-in-control plan, program, policy, or arrangement of the Corporation in which Executive is a participant (other than the Stock Plan or the Annual Incentive Plan,
or any award granted thereunder) shall be reduced by the amount of all compensation and benefits payable under this Section 2.7. 

  
 15 

 (h) Survival. In the event that the Corporation becomes obligated
during the Employment Period to make post-termination payments to Executive pursuant to this Section 2.7, the Corporation’s obligation to continue to make such payments in accordance with this Section 2.7 shall survive the termination
of the Agreement and the Employment Period, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement (including but not limited to Executive’s compliance with Article III). For the avoidance of doubt, Executive will not be entitled to any payment
pursuant to this Section 2.7 if Executive’s termination of employment occurs after the end of the Employment Period. 
 III.
RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS 
 3.1 Patents, Inventions, and Other Intellectual Property. 

(a) If at any time during the Employment Period or prior thereto at any time that Executive was an employee, agent, director,
or officer of or consultant to the Corporation or its Subsidiaries, Executive, whether alone or with any other Person, makes, discovers, produces, conceives, or first reduces to practice any invention, process, development, design, or improvement
that relates to, affects, or, in the opinion of the Board, is capable of being used or adapted for use in or in connection with the Business or any product, process, or intellectual property right of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries,
(i) Executive acknowledges and agrees that such invention, process, development, design, or improvement (collectively, “Corporation IP”) will be the sole property of the Corporation or such Subsidiaries, as appropriate,
and is hereby irrevocably assigned by Executive to the Corporation or such Subsidiaries, as appropriate, and (ii) Executive will immediately disclose in confidence all Corporation IP to the Corporation in writing. The Corporation shall have the
right to use all such Corporation IP, whether original or derivative, in any matter it chooses without any related royalty, licensure, or other obligation. Executive acknowledges that all such Corporation IP shall be considered as “work made
for hire” as provided under the United States Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. Section 101, et seq., and shall belong exclusively to the Corporation. Executive agrees further that in the event that any Corporation IP should be deemed not to be
work made for hire belonging exclusively to the Corporation, he shall promptly assign and transfer such Corporation IP to the Corporation so that the Corporation shall be, in fact, the exclusive owner. 

(b) Executive will, if and when reasonably required to do so by the Corporation (whether during the Employment Period or
thereafter), at the Corporation’s expense and, if after the expiration of the Employment Period, subject to Executive’s availability and reimbursement by the Corporation of Executive’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and payment to Executive of a reasonable per diem to compensate Executive for time spent in connection therewith: (i) apply, or join with the Corporation or a Subsidiary thereof,
as appropriate, in applying, for patents or other protection in any jurisdiction in the world for any Corporation IP; (ii) execute or procure to be executed all instruments, and do or procure to be done all things, that are necessary or, in the
opinion of the Corporation, advisable for vesting such patents or other protection in the name of the Corporation or a Subsidiary thereof or any nominee thereof, or subsequently for renewing and maintaining the same in the name of the Corporation, a
Subsidiary thereof, or its nominees; and (iii) assist in defending any proceedings relating to, or any application for, such patents or other protection. 

  
 16 

 (c) Executive irrevocably appoints the Corporation as his attorney in his
name (with full power of substitution and re-substitution) and on his behalf to execute all documents, and do all things, required in order to give full effect to the provisions of this Section 3.1. 

3.2 Confidentiality. 

(a) Executive acknowledges that during the Employment Period and prior thereto when he was an employee, agent, director, or
officer of or consultant to the Corporation, Executive has been given and will continue to have, in connection with the conduct of the Business, access and exposure to trade secrets and other confidential information in written, oral, electronic,
and other form regarding the Corporation and its Subsidiaries, and their respective Affiliates, businesses, operations, equipment, products, and employees (“Confidential Information”), including, but not limited to: 

(i) the identities of customers and key accounts and relationships and potential customers and key accounts and relationships,
including, without limitation, the identity of customers and key accounts and potential customers and key accounts cultivated or maintained by Executive while providing services to the Corporation or its Subsidiaries, or that Executive cultivates or
maintains while providing services at the Corporation or its Subsidiaries using the Corporation’s (or its Subsidiaries’) products, name, and infrastructure, and the identities of contact persons at those customers and key accounts and
potential customers and key accounts, as well as other such confidential information related to the Business to which Executive is exposed during the course of his employment or service; 

(ii) the particular preferences, likes, dislikes, and needs of those customers and key accounts and relationships, and
potential customers and key accounts and contact persons with respect to service types, financing terms, pricing, sales calls, timing, sales terms, rental terms, lease terms, service plans, and other marketing terms and techniques; 

(iii) the business methods, practices, strategies, forecasts, pricing, and marketing techniques; 

(iv) the identities of brokers, licensors, vendors, and other suppliers and the identities of contact persons at such brokers,
licensors, vendors, and other suppliers; 
 (v) the identities of key sales representatives and personnel and other
employees; 
 (vi) advertising and sales materials, research, technology, intellectual property rights, training materials
and techniques, computer software, and related materials; 

  
 17 

 (vii) other facts and financial and other business information concerning
such Persons or relating to their business, operations, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects; and 

(viii) all other information the Corporation or its Subsidiaries try to keep confidential and that has commercial value or is
of such a nature that its unauthorized disclosure would be detrimental to the Corporation’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ interests. 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Confidential Information” will not include information that is approved for
public release by the Corporation or its Subsidiaries or information that Executive can demonstrate (i) is already in or has subsequently entered the public domain, other than as a result of any breach of this Agreement by Executive;
(ii) was in the possession of or known to Executive prior to Executive’s employment or other service with the Corporation and is not subject to confidentiality restrictions; (iii) was obtained from a third party not in violation of
any agreement with, or duty of confidentiality to, the Corporation; or (iv) was independently developed by Executive without use of or reference to the Corporation’s Confidential Information. 

(c) During the Employment Period and thereafter, Executive will not at any time, except as directed by the Corporation, use for
himself or others, directly or indirectly, any such Confidential Information, and, except as required by law or as directed by the Corporation, Executive will not disclose such Confidential Information, directly or indirectly, to any other Person or
use, lecture upon, or publish any of the Confidential Information. 
 (d) All physical property and all notes, memoranda,
files, records, writings, documents, and other materials of any and every nature, written or electronic, that Executive has prepared, developed, or received, or will prepare, develop, or receive in the course of his association with the Corporation
or its Subsidiaries and that relate to or are useful in any manner to the Business or any other business now or hereafter conducted by the Corporation or its Subsidiaries, are and will remain the sole and exclusive property of such Persons. Except
as may be required in the performance of Executive’s duties under this Agreement, Executive will not remove from such Person’s premises any such physical property, the original, “soft copy,” or any reproduction of any such
materials nor the information contained therein, and all such physical property, materials, and information in his possession or under his custody or control will, on the Termination Date, be immediately turned over to the Corporation or its
Subsidiaries. 
 (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) nothing in this Agreement or other agreement prohibits Executive
from reporting possible violations of law or regulation to any federal, state, or local governmental agency or entity (the “Government Agencies”), or communicating with Government Agencies or otherwise participating in any
investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by Government Agencies, including providing documents or other information; (ii) Executive does not need the prior authorization of the Corporation to take any action described in (i), and
Executive is not required to notify the Corporation that he has taken any action described in (i); and (iii) the Agreement does not limit Executive’s right to receive an award for providing information relating to a possible securities law
violation to the Securities and Exchange Commission. 

  
 18 

 (f) Further, notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive will not be held
criminally or civilly liable under any Government Agency’s trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (i) is made (A) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or
to an attorney, and (B) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (ii) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.
Additionally, an individual suing an employer for retaliation based on the reporting of a suspected violation of law may disclose a trade secret to his attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, so long as any document
containing the trade secret is filed under seal and the individual does not disclose the trade secret except pursuant to court order. 

(g) Further, Executive may disclose Confidential Information (i) to the extent required by a court of law, by any
governmental agency having supervisory authority over the business of the Corporation, or by any administrative or legislative body (including a committee thereof) with apparent jurisdiction to order him to divulge, disclose, or make accessible such
information (provided, however, that the Corporation is given reasonable prior notice of such proposed disclosure and a reasonable period of time to secure a protective order or take other action to protect such Confidential Information (at the
Corporation’s expense)); or (ii) to Executive’s spouse, attorney, and/or his personal tax and financial advisors as necessary or appropriate to advance Executive’s tax, financial, and other personal planning (each, an
“Exempt Person”), provided, however, that (A) each such Exempt Person is notified of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information, (B) such disclosure to an Exempt Person does not violate applicable laws,
rules, or regulations, and (C) any disclosure or use of Confidential Information by an Exempt Person shall be deemed to be a breach of this Section 3.2 by Executive. 

3.3 Covenant Not to Compete. Executive agrees that during his employment with the Corporation, and for a period of one (1) year
immediately following the termination thereof, whether voluntary or involuntary, he shall not, directly or indirectly, on behalf of himself or any other person or entity, (a) work, whether on a full-time, part-time, consulting, or contractor
basis, as a chief operating officer or in another capacity similar to his management position with the Corporation for, (b) provide Business Services consulting to, (c) operate or manage, or (d) have an ownership interest in, any
entity (including a sole proprietorship) in the Non-Compete Territory (as hereinafter defined) that operates a Business that is competitive with the Business of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries or that
provides Business Services that are competitive with those provided by the Corporation or its Subsidiaries. Although Executive acknowledges that the market area of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries extends throughout much of the United States and
that he shall regularly be exposed to customers, Loan Sources, and related Confidential Information throughout that market area, the restriction in this Section 3.3 shall apply only to the area that is within a twenty-five (25)-mile radius of
any branch or other office of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries (“Non-Compete Territory”). Moreover, the restriction in this Section 3.3 shall not prevent Executive from owning,
for personal investment purposes, up to one percent (1%) of the stock of any entity whose securities are listed on a national or regional securities exchange or have been registered under Section 12(b) or Section 12(g) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. 

  
 19 

 3.4 Covenant Not to Solicit Competitive Business Services Through or From Loan
Sources. 
 (a) Executive agrees that during his employment with the Corporation, and for a period of one (1) year
immediately following the termination thereof, whether voluntary or involuntary, he shall not, directly or indirectly, on behalf of himself or any other person or entity, solicit the provision of, or otherwise provide, Business Services that are
competitive with those provided by or to the Corporation or its Subsidiaries, through any Loan Source. “Loan Source,” as used in this Agreement, shall mean any automobile dealership, online credit application network,
retailer, or other Business Services source that the Corporation or its Subsidiaries uses at any time during the last year of Executive’s employment with the Corporation and that Executive has contact with or is exposed to Confidential
Information about through his employment with the Corporation. 
 (b) Executive agrees that during his employment with the
Corporation, and for a period of one (1) year immediately following the termination thereof, whether voluntary or involuntary, he shall not, directly or indirectly, on behalf of himself or any other person or entity, solicit any Loan Source for
the purpose of providing or receiving Business Services that are competitive with those provided by or to the Corporation or its Subsidiaries. 

3.5 Covenant Not to Hire or Solicit Employees. Executive agrees that during his employment with the Corporation, and for a period of
one (1) year immediately following the termination thereof, whether voluntary or involuntary, he shall not, directly or indirectly, on behalf of himself or any other person or entity, hire any Corporation Employee for, or solicit any
Corporation Employee for the purpose of offering employment with, any entity or person (including himself) that operates a Business that is competitive with the Business of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries or that provides Business Services that
are competitive with those provided by the Corporation or its Subsidiaries. “Corporation Employee,” as used in this Agreement, shall mean any employee who (a) is employed with the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries
at any time during the last six (6) months of Executive’s employment with the Corporation, and (b) either (1) has been exposed to Confidential Information or (2) has had contact with Executive through Executive’s employment
with the Corporation. 
 3.6 Reasonableness of Restrictions. 

(a) Executive has carefully read and considered the provisions of Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, and 3.5 and, having done so, agrees
that the restrictions, set forth in these Sections, including, but not limited to, the time period of restriction and the geographical area restriction, are fair and reasonable and are reasonably required for the protection of the interests of the
Corporation. 
 (b) In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, either Section 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, or 3.5 above shall
be held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining paragraph(s) thereof shall nevertheless continue to be valid and enforceable as though the invalid or unenforceable paragraph(s) had not been included therein. 

  
 20 

 (c) In the event that any provision of Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, or 3.5 above
shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions thereof shall nevertheless continue to be valid and enforceable as though the invalid or unenforceable provision(s) had not been included therein. 

(d) In the event that any provision of Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, or 3.5 relating to the time period of restriction, the
geographic area restriction, and/or any related aspects is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to exceed the maximum restrictiveness such court deems reasonable and enforceable, then it is the express desire and intent of both the Corporation
and Executive that such provision not be rendered invalid thereby, but rather that the duration, geographic area, scope, or nature of the restriction be deemed reduced or modified to the extent necessary to render such provision reasonable, valid,
and enforceable. The time period restriction, geographic area restriction, and/or any related aspects deemed reasonable and enforceable by the court shall then become, and thereafter be, the maximum restriction in such regard, and the provision, as
reformed, shall remain valid and enforceable. The Corporation and Executive acknowledge that this Section 3.6(d) is contractual in nature and expressly grant a court of competent jurisdiction the authority to effectuate this contractual
provision. 
 3.7 Non-Disparagement. During the term of Executive’s employment, and
thereafter, Executive shall not make any disparaging remarks, or any remarks that could reasonably be construed as disparaging, regarding the Corporation, its Subsidiaries, or its or their officers, directors, employees, stockholders,
representatives, or agents. The Corporation shall, except to the extent otherwise required by applicable laws, rules, or regulations or as appropriate in the exercise of the Board’s fiduciary duties (as determined by the Board with advice of
counsel), exercise reasonable efforts to cause the following individuals to refrain from making any disparaging statements, orally or in writing, regarding Executive from and after the termination of the Employment Period: the Corporation’s
executive officers and the members of the Board. 
 3.8 Use of Name. Executive will not have the rights to and may not use the name
“Regional Management Corp.” or any other name used by the Corporation or its Subsidiaries or any derivative or abbreviation thereof in any manner, including but not limited to in any activity prohibited under Sections 3.3, 3.4, or 3.5, or
in any manner that could reasonably be expected to be adverse to the interests of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries. This covenant shall survive indefinitely without limitation to time. 

3.9 Breach of Restrictive Covenants. Executive acknowledges that this Agreement is designed and intended to protect the legitimate
business interests of the Corporation and that the restrictions imposed by this Agreement are necessary, fair, and reasonably designed to protect those interests. Executive further acknowledges that the Corporation has given him access to certain
Confidential Information and that the use of such Confidential Information by him on behalf of some other entity (including himself) would cause irreparable harm to the Corporation. Executive also acknowledges that the Corporation has invested
considerable time and resources in developing its relationships with its Loan Sources and customers and in training Corporation 

  
 21 

 
Employees, the loss of which similarly would cause irreparable harm to the Corporation. Without limitation, Executive agrees that if he should breach or threaten to breach any of the restrictive
covenants contained in Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, and 3.7 of this Agreement, the Corporation may, in addition to seeking other available remedies (including but in no way limited to the Corporation’s rights under Sections 2.7(a) and (e)),
apply, consistent with Section 4.7 below, for the immediate entry of an injunction restraining any actual or threatened breaches or violations of said provisions or terms by Executive. If, for any reason, any of the restrictive covenants or
related provisions contained in Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, or 3.7 of this Agreement should be held invalid or otherwise unenforceable, it is agreed the court shall construe the pertinent Section(s) or provision(s) so as to allow its enforcement to
the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. Executive further agrees that any claimed breach of this Agreement by the Corporation shall not prevent, or otherwise be a defense against, the enforcement of any restrictive covenant or other
Executive obligation herein. 
 3.10 Executive Representations. Executive represents that the restrictions on his business provided
in this Agreement are fair and protect the legitimate business interests of the Corporation. Executive represents further that the consideration for this Agreement is fair and adequate, and that even if the restrictions in this Agreement are applied
to him, he shall still be able to earn a good and reasonable living from those activities, areas, and opportunities not restricted by this Agreement. In addition, Executive represents he has had an opportunity to consult with independent counsel
concerning this Agreement and is not relying on the Corporation or its counsel for any related legal, tax, or other advice. 
 3.11 No
Prior Obligations. The Corporation represents and warrants that it is fully authorized and empowered to enter into this Agreement and that the performance of its obligations under this Agreement will not violate any agreement between it and any
other person, firm, or organization. Executive represents he is not subject to any contractual or other obligations, including but not limited to any non-competition,
non-solicitation, confidentiality, and/or other restrictive covenants, that preclude him from entering into this Agreement or would in any way restrict his work activities as required under this Agreement.
Executive represents further that he does not possess any prior employer or other third-party proprietary information and shall not use or disclose any such information in his work for the Corporation. In the event that said representations should
be untrue to any material extent and a related action should be initiated against the Corporation or its Subsidiaries, Executive agrees to promptly indemnify the Corporation for any resulting liability and costs, including attorneys’ fees, as
they are incurred in full. 
 3.12 Survival; Subsequent Employer Notice. The provisions contained in this Article III and in
Section 4.4 and Section 4.7 will survive termination of this Agreement regardless of whether such termination is initiated by the Corporation or Executive. In the event of the termination of his employment with the Corporation and
subsequent employment with, or work for, another entity or person, Executive agrees to notify the Corporation of his new employment or work, including the name and address of the new employer or entity or person he intends to work for, before
commencing work for the new employer or other entity or person. In addition, Executive authorizes the Corporation to provide notice of his obligations under this Agreement, including a copy of this Agreement, to his new employer or other entity or
person for whom he intends to work or provide services.

be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. 
 4.3 Expenses. Unless expressly set forth to the
contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the parties will pay all of their respective expenses incurred in connection with any legal proceeding concerning a dispute arising out of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall pay
the reasonable fees and expenses of Executive’s attorney not to exceed $5,000 in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement. 

4.4 Indemnification. The Corporation will provide indemnification no less favorable than that set forth in the Corporation’s
amended and restated bylaws as in effect on the Effective Date. The Corporation agrees to use its best efforts to maintain a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy covering Executive to the extent the Corporation provides such
coverage for its other executive officers and such policy is available on commercially reasonable terms. Notwithstanding any indemnification rights provided under this Section 4.4, Executive shall not be entitled to any indemnification as to
any matter where the Corporation has brought an action or has otherwise asserted a claim against Executive that Executive has breached this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 4.4 shall
survive the termination of the Agreement and the Employment Period. 
 4.5 Successors and Assigns. The provisions, obligations and
rights of this Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, and administrators; provided, however, that Executive may not assign, delegate, or otherwise transfer any
of his rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Corporation. 
 4.6 No Third Party
Beneficiaries. Except as otherwise expressly provided for herein, this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their permitted assigns, and nothing herein expressed or implied will give or be construed to give to any Person,
other than the parties hereto and such permitted assigns, any legal or equitable rights hereunder. 
 4.7 Choice of Law; Forum Selection;
Jury Waiver. This Agreement, including its interpretation, performance, breach, or any statutory or other claim relating to Executive’s employment with the Corporation, the termination thereof, or his work for the Corporation, shall be
governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware without giving any force or effect to the provisions of any conflict of law rule thereof, and unless superseded by federal law. The parties knowingly and voluntarily
agree that any controversy or dispute arising out of or otherwise related to this Agreement, including any statutory or other claim relating to Executive’s employment with the Corporation, the termination thereof, or his work for the
Corporation, shall be tried exclusively, without jury, and consent to personal jurisdiction, in the state courts of Greenville, South Carolina or the United States District Court for the District of 

  
 24 

 
South Carolina, Greenville division. Consistent with 6 Del. Code Ann. Section 2708(a), the parties consent to the jurisdiction of said South Carolina courts and the service of legal process
on them for any civil action arising out of or otherwise related to this Agreement, including any statutory or other claim related to Executive’s employment with the Corporation or the termination thereof. 

4.8 Controlling Document. Except with respect to the Stock Plan, the Annual Incentive Plan, or any award agreement under any such plan,
if any provision of any agreement, plan, program, policy, arrangement, or other written document between or related to the Corporation and Executive conflicts with any provision of this Agreement, the provision of this Agreement shall control and
prevail. The provisions of the Stock Plan, the Annual Incentive Plan, and any award agreements under such plans shall control over this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 4.8 shall
survive the termination of the Agreement and the Employment Period. 
 4.9 No Limitation of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall
limit or prejudice any rights of the Corporation under any other laws. 
 4.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any
number of counterparts, including via facsimile transmission, each of which will be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. 

4.11 Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and will not control or affect the meaning or
construction of any provisions hereof. 
 4.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such
provision to any Person or circumstance is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability will not affect any other provision hereof. If any provision of
this Agreement is finally judicially determined to be invalid, ineffective, or unenforceable, the determination will apply only in the jurisdiction in which such final adjudication is made, and such provision will be deemed severed from this
Agreement for purposes of such jurisdiction only, but every other provision of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, and there will be substituted for any such provision held invalid, ineffective, or unenforceable, a provision of
similar import reflecting the original intent of the parties to the extent permitted under applicable law. 
 4.13 Certain Interpretive
Matters. 
 (a) Unless the context otherwise requires, (i) all references to sections are to sections of this
Agreement, (ii) each term defined in this Agreement has the meaning assigned to it, (iii) words in the singular include the plural and vice versa, and (iv) the terms “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,”
“hereunder,” and words of similar import shall mean references to this Agreement as a whole and not to any individual section or portion hereof. All references to $ or dollar amounts will be to lawful currency of the United States. 

(b) No provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in favor of, or against, any of the parties hereto by reason of the
extent to which any such party or his or its counsel participated in the drafting thereof or by reason of the extent to which any such provision is inconsistent with any prior draft hereof or thereof. 

  
 25 

 4.14 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the
parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both oral and written, including but not limited to any term sheet, offer letter, employment agreement, or other similar summary of proposed
terms, between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of the Agreement to the contrary, Executive and the Corporation expressly agree that the
terms of any long-term incentive award agreements outstanding as of the Effective Date and granted under the Stock Plan shall continue in accordance with their terms. Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties hereby agree that, effective as of the
Effective Date, the Prior Employment Agreement shall be terminated and of no further force or effect, and that Executive shall have no rights to compensation or benefits thereunder. 

4.15 Full Understanding. Executive represents and agrees that Executive fully understands Executive’s right to discuss all aspects
of this Agreement with Executive’s private attorney, and that to the extent, if any, that Executive desired, Executive utilized this right. Executive further represents and agrees that: (i) Executive has carefully read and fully
understands all of the provisions of this Agreement; (ii) Executive is competent to execute this Agreement; (iii) Executive’s agreement to execute this Agreement has not been obtained by any duress, and Executive freely and
voluntarily enters into it; (iv) Executive is not subject to any covenants, agreements, or restrictions arising out of Executive’s prior employment (other than with the Corporation) that would be breached or violated by Executive’s
execution of this Agreement or performance of duties hereunder; and (v) Executive has read this document in its entirety and fully understands the meaning, intent, and consequences of this document. Executive agrees and acknowledges that the
obligations owed to Executive under this Agreement are solely the obligations of the Corporation and that none of the Corporation’s stockholders, directors, or lenders will have any obligation or liabilities in respect of this Agreement and the
subject matter hereof. 
 4.16 Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the
contrary, if and to the extent that Code Section 409A is deemed to apply to any benefit under this Agreement, it is the general intention of the Corporation that such benefits shall, to the extent practicable, comply with, or be exempt from,
Code Section 409A, and this Agreement shall, to the extent practicable, be construed in accordance therewith. Deferrals of benefits distributable pursuant to this Agreement that are otherwise exempt from Code Section 409A in a manner that
would cause Code Section 409A to apply shall not be permitted unless such deferrals are in compliance with or otherwise exempt from Code Section 409A. In the event that the Corporation (or a successor thereto) has any stock which is
publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise and Executive is determined to be a “specified employee” (as defined under Code Section 409A), any payment of deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A to
be made to Executive upon a separation from service may not be made before the date that is six months after Executive’s separation from service (or death, if earlier). To the extent that Executive becomes subject to the six-month delay rule, all payments of deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A that would have been made to Executive during the six months following his separation from service, if any, will be
accumulated and paid to Executive during the seventh month following his separation from service, and any remaining payments due will be made in their ordinary course as described in this Agreement. For the purposes herein, the phrase
“termination of employment” or similar phrases will be interpreted in accordance with the term 

  
 26 

 
“separation from service” as defined under Code Section 409A if and to the extent required under Code Section 409A. Whenever payments under the Agreement are to be made in
installments, each such installment shall be deemed to be a separate payment for purposes of Code Section 409A. Further, (i) in the event that Code Section 409A requires that any special terms, provisions, or conditions be included in
this Agreement, then such terms, provisions, and conditions shall, to the extent practicable, be deemed to be made a part of this Agreement, and (ii) terms used in this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with Code Section 409A if
and to the extent required. Further, in the event that this Agreement or any benefit thereunder shall be deemed not to comply with Code Section 409A, then neither the Corporation, its Subsidiaries, the Board, the Compensation Committee, nor its
or their designees or agents shall be liable to Executive or any other person for actions, decisions, or determinations made in good faith. 

4.17 Compliance with Recoupment, Ownership, and Other Policies or Agreements. As a condition to entering into this Agreement, Executive
agrees that he shall abide by all provisions of any equity retention policy, compensation recovery policy, stock ownership guidelines, and/or other similar policies maintained by the Corporation, each as in effect from time to time and to the extent
applicable to Executive from time to time. In addition, Executive shall be subject to such compensation recovery, recoupment, forfeiture, or other similar provisions as may apply at any time to Executive under applicable law. 

4.18 Waiver and Release. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Corporation may at any time require, as a condition to receipt of
benefits payable under this Agreement, including but not limited to the payment of termination benefits pursuant to Sections 2.7(a), 2.7(d), 2.7(e), and 2.7(f) herein, that Executive (or a representative of his Estate) execute a waiver and
release discharging the Corporation and its Subsidiaries, and their respective Affiliates, and its and their officers, directors, managers, employees, agents, and representatives and the heirs, predecessors, successors, and assigns of all of the
foregoing, from any and all claims, actions, causes of action, or other liability, whether known or unknown, contingent or fixed, arising out of or in any way related to Executive’s employment, or the termination of Executive’s employment
with the Corporation or the benefits thereunder, including, without limitation, any claims under this Agreement or other related instruments. The waiver and release shall be in a form substantially similar to the form of release attached to this
Agreement as Exhibit A and shall be executed prior to the expiration of the time period provided for payment of such benefits (including those provided under Section 2.7 herein). 

4.19 Tax Matters. The Corporation has made no warranties or representations to Executive with respect to the tax consequences
(including but not limited to income tax consequences) contemplated by this Agreement and/or any benefits to be provided pursuant thereto. Executive acknowledges that there may be adverse tax consequences related to the transactions contemplated
hereby and that Executive should consult with his own attorney, accountant, and/or tax advisor regarding the decision to enter into this Agreement and the consequences thereof. Executive also acknowledges that the Corporation has no responsibility
to take or refrain from taking any actions in order to achieve a certain tax result for Executive.

 EXHIBIT A 

RELEASE OF CLAIMS 
 This
Release of Claims (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into by and between Regional Management Corp. (the “Corporation”) and John D. Schachtel (the “Executive”). 

BACKGROUND 
 A. The
Corporation and Executive are parties to an Employment Agreement dated as of July 1, 2020 (the “Employment Agreement”) that, among its terms, provides that the Corporation will pay Executive certain individually-tailored severance
benefits (the “Severance”) under certain circumstances in connection with the termination of Executive’s employment thereunder. 

B. Under the Employment Agreement, the Corporation is not obligated to pay the Severance unless Executive has signed a release of claims in
favor of the Corporation. The parties intend this Agreement to be that release of claims. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, based on the foregoing and the
terms and conditions below, the Corporation and Executive, desiring to amicably resolve any and all existing and potential disputes between them as of the date each executes this Agreement, and in consideration of the obligations and undertakings
set forth below and intending to be legally bound, agree as follows. 
 1. Corporation’s Obligations. In return for
“Executive’s Obligations” (as described in Section 2 below), and provided that Executive signs this Agreement and does not exercise Executive’s rights to revoke or rescind Executive’s waivers of certain discrimination
claims (as described in Section 5 below), the Corporation will pay to Executive the Severance. 
 2. Executive’s
Obligations. In return for the Corporation’s Obligations in Section 1 above, Executive knowingly and voluntarily agrees to the following: 

(a) Executive hereby fully, finally, and forever releases, waives, and discharges, to the maximum extent that the law permits, any and all
legal, equitable, and administrative claims, actions, causes of action, suits, debts, accounts, judgments, and demands (collectively, “Claims”) against the Corporation or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries or affiliates that
Executive has or may have through the date on which Executive signs this Agreement. This full and final release, waiver, and discharge extends to all and each of every legal, equitable, and administrative Claim(s) of any kind or nature whatsoever
including, without limitation, the following: 
 (i) All Claims that Executive has or may have now, whether Executive now
knows about or suspects such claims; 
 (ii) All Claims for attorney’s fees; 

 (iii) All rights and Claims of age discrimination and retaliation under the
Age Discrimination in Employment Act (“ADEA”), as amended by the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990 (“OWBPA”); 

(iv) All rights and Claims of any other forms of discrimination and retaliation of any kind or nature whatsoever under federal,
state, or local law, including but not limited to Claims of discrimination and retaliation under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the Americans With Disabilities Act (“ADA”); 

(v) All Claims, whether in contract or tort, arising out of Executive’s employment and Executive’s termination of
employment with the Corporation, including but not limited to any alleged breach of contract, breach of implied contract, wrongful or illegal termination, defamation, invasion of privacy, fraud, promissory estoppel, and infliction of emotional
distress; 
 (vi) All Claims for any other compensation, including but not limited to front pay, back pay, bonus, fringe
benefits, vacation pay, other paid time off, severance pay, other severance benefits, incentive opportunity pay, other grants of incentive compensation, and grants of stock, stock options, and other equity awards or equity-based awards; 

(vii) All Claims under the Employee Retirement Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), subject to
Section 4(c) herein; 
 (viii) All Claims for any other alleged unlawful employment practices arising out of or relating
to Executive’s employment or termination of employment with the Corporation; 
 (ix) All Claims for emotional distress,
pain and suffering, compensatory damages, punitive damages, and liquidated damages; and 
 (x) All Claims for reinstatement
or re-employment. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 2(a) shall
constitute a waiver of (i) any Claims that arise as a result of conduct that occurs after the date that Executive signs this Agreement, (ii) any Claims for continuation rights under COBRA, or (iii) any Claims that do not exist as of
the date that Executive signs this Agreement. 
 (b) Executive will not commence any civil actions against the Corporation except as
necessary to enforce his rights and/or the Corporation’s obligations under this Agreement and the Employment Agreement. The Severance that Executive is receiving in the Employment Agreement has a value that is greater than anything to which
Executive is entitled. Other than what Executive is receiving in the Employment Agreement, the Corporation owes Executive nothing else in return for Executive’s Obligations. 

(c) Executive relinquishes any right to future employment with the Corporation, and the Corporation shall have the right to refuse to re-employ Executive without liability. 

  
 A-2 

 (d) Executive agrees to continue to adhere to the terms and conditions set forth in Article
III (Restrictive Covenants) of the Employment Agreement. Executive agrees that such terms and conditions are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Corporation and that any violation of Article III of the Employment
Agreement by Executive may cause substantial and irreparable harm to the Corporation. Executive agrees that the Corporation may seek any remedies set forth in Section 2.7(a)(vii), Section 2.7(e)(vii), and/or Article III of the Employment
Agreement should Executive violate Article III of the Employment Agreement. The Corporation and Executive specifically agree that Section 2.7(a)(vii), Section 2.7(e)(vii), and Article III of the Employment Agreement are incorporated
hereto by reference and integrated herein. 
 3. Certain Definitions. For purposes of Section 2, “Executive” means
John D. Schachtel and any person or entity that has or obtains any legal rights or claims through John D. Schachtel. Further, the “Corporation” means Regional Management Corp. and any parent, subsidiary, and affiliated organization or
entity in the present or past related to Regional Management Corp., and any past and present officers, directors, members, governors, attorneys, employees, agents, insurers, successors, and assigns of, and any person who acted on behalf of or
instruction of, Regional Management Corp. 
 4. Other Provisions. 

(a) The Corporation has paid or will pay Executive in full for all reimbursable business expenses, earned annualized salary, earned unpaid
bonus pay, and any other earnings through the last day of Executive’s employment (if and to the extent such payments are required to be made pursuant to the terms of the Employment Agreement). 

(b) This Agreement does not prohibit Executive from filing an administrative charge of discrimination with, or cooperating or participating in
an investigation or proceeding conducted by, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or other federal or state regulatory or law enforcement agency. However, Executive agrees not to seek or accept any money damages or other relief should any
such charge be filed. 
 (c) Nothing in this Agreement affects Executive’s rights in any qualified retirement or welfare benefit plan
or program in which Executive was a participant while employed by the Corporation. In addition, any equity, equity-based, or other long-term incentive awards granted to Executive shall be governed by the terms of the applicable Stock Plan (as
defined in the Employment Agreement) and related award agreement. The terms of such plans, programs, and award agreements control Executive’s rights with respect thereto. 

(d) The Corporation will indemnify Executive as permitted by and pursuant to any agreement or policy that the Corporation has adopted relating
to indemnification of directors, officers, and employees, and as permitted by and pursuant to any provision of the Corporation’s certificate of incorporation or by-laws relating to such indemnification.
Executive will continue to be covered as permitted by and pursuant to any policy of directors and/or officers liability insurance policy on the terms and conditions of the applicable policy documents. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in
Section 2(a) of this Agreement waives any right to claims for such indemnification or insurance coverage. 

  
 A-3 

 (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) nothing in this Agreement or other agreement
prohibits Executive from reporting possible violations of law or regulation to any federal, state, or local governmental agency or entity (the “Government Agencies”), or communicating with Government Agencies or otherwise
participating in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by Government Agencies, including providing documents or other information; (ii) Executive does not need the prior authorization of the Corporation to take any action
described in (i), and Executive is not required to notify the Corporation that he has taken any action described in (i); and (iii) the Agreement does not limit Executive’s right to receive an award for providing information relating to a
possible securities law violation to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Further, notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Government Agency’s trade secret law for the disclosure of a
trade secret that (i) is made (A) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, and (B) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation or
law; or (ii) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Additionally, an individual suing an employer for retaliation based on the reporting of a suspected violation of
law may disclose a trade secret to his or her attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, so long as any document containing the trade secret is filed under seal and the individual does not disclose the trade secret except
pursuant to court order. 
 (f) The terms and obligations of the Employment Agreement and this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of
Executive’s heirs and estate. 
 5. Executive’s Rights to Counsel, Consider, Revoke, and Rescind. 

(a) The Corporation hereby advises Executive to consult with an attorney prior to signing this Agreement. 

(b) Executive further understands that Executive has 21 days to consider Executive’s release of rights and claims of age discrimination
under the ADEA and OWBPA, beginning the date on which Executive receives this Agreement. Executive agrees that he was provided this Agreement on
                    , 20         for consideration. If Executive signs this Agreement, Executive understands
that Executive is entitled to revoke Executive’s release of any rights or claims under the ADEA and OWBPA within seven days after Executive has executed it, and Executive’s release of any rights or claims under the ADEA and OWBPA will not
become effective or enforceable until the seven-day period has expired. To revoke such release, Executive must put the rescission in writing and deliver it to the Corporation by hand or mail within the seven-day period. If Executive delivers the rescission by mail, it must be: (i) postmarked within seven calendar days after the date on which Executive signs this Agreement; (ii) addressed to the
Corporation, c/o General Counsel, 979 Batesville Road, Suite B, Greer, SC 29651; and (iii) sent by certified mail return receipt requested. If Executive revokes or rescinds Executive’s waivers of discrimination claims as provided above,
Executive shall not be entitled to receive the Severance. 
 6. Non-Admission. The
Corporation and Executive enter into this Agreement expressly disavowing fault, liability, and wrongdoing, liability at all times having been denied. Neither this Agreement, nor anything contained in it, will be construed as an admission by either
of them of any liability, wrongdoing, or unlawful conduct whatsoever. If this Agreement is not executed, no term of this Agreement will be deemed an admission by either party of any right that he/it may have with or against the other. 

  
 A-4 

 7. No Oral Modification or Waiver. This Agreement may not be changed orally. No
breach of any provision hereof can be waived by either party unless in writing. Waiver of any one breach by a party will not be deemed to be a waiver of any other breach of the same or any other provision hereof. 

8. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by the substantive laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflicts of law
principles. 
 9. Forum Selection, Jurisdiction, and Venue. Executive and the Corporation knowingly and voluntarily agree that any
controversy or dispute arising out of or otherwise related to this Agreement, including any employment or statutory claim, shall be tried exclusively, without jury, and consent to personal jurisdiction, in the state courts of Greenville, South
Carolina or the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, Greenville division. 
 10. Counterparts. This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each such counterpart will be deemed to be an original instrument, and all such counterparts together will constitute but one agreement. 

11. Blue Pencil Doctrine. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable under applicable law, the validity or
enforceability of the remaining provisions will not be affected. To the extent any provision of this Agreement is judicially determined to be unenforceable, a court of competent jurisdiction may reform any such provision to make it enforceable. The
provisions of this Agreement will, where possible, be interpreted so as to sustain its legality and enforceability. 
 12. Agreement
Freely Entered Into. Executive and the Corporation have voluntarily and free from coercion entered into this Agreement. Each has read this Agreement carefully and understands all of its terms, and has had the opportunity to discuss this
Agreement with his/its own attorney prior to its execution. In agreeing to sign this Agreement, neither party has relied on any statements or explanations made by the other party, their respective agents, or attorneys except as set forth in this
Agreement. Both parties agree to abide by this Agreement. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly
executed as of the dates set forth below.

This
SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of July 6, 2020, is entered into by and between
Clean Energy Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation, (the “Company”), and LGH Investments, LLC, a Wyoming
limited liability company (the “Buyer”).

 

A.
The Company and the Buyer are executing and delivering this Agreement in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration
afforded by the rules and regulations as promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”).

 

B.
Upon the terms and conditions stated in this Agreement, the Buyer desires to purchase and the Company desires to issue and sell,
upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (i) a Promissory Note of the Company, in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit A (the “Note”), in the original principal amount of $164,800.00 (the “Original
Principal Amount”) (together with any note(s) issued in replacement thereof or as a dividend thereon or otherwise with
respect thereto in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Note”) convertible into shares of common stock of
the Company (“Common Stock”), (ii) a two-year share purchase warrant entitling the Buyer to acquire 1,500,000
shares of common stock of the Company, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Warrant”)
and (ii) one million (1,000,000) restricted common shares in the Company (“Inducement Shares”) to be delivered to
Buyer, via overnight courier within 7 (seven) calendar days following the Closing Date. On the date at which the Buyer seeks to
have the restricted legend removed, in the event the Company’s share price has declined the Company agrees to issue the
Buyer additional shares such that the aggregate value of the Inducement Shares equal the aggregate value of the Inducement Shares
as of the closing date.

 

NOW
THEREFORE, the Company and the Buyer hereby agree as follows:

 

1.
Purchase and Sale. On the Closing Date (as defined below), the Company shall issue and sell to the Buyer and the Buyer
agrees to purchase from the Company the (i) Note in the original principal amount of $164,800.00, (ii) Warrant, and (ii) one million
Inducement Shares. (collectively the “Securities”).

 

1.1.
Form of Payment. On the Closing Date, (i) the Buyer shall pay the purchase price of $160,000 (the “Purchase Price”)
at the Closing (as defined below) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a Company account designated by the Company,
in accordance with the Company’s written wiring instructions, against delivery of the Securities, and (ii) the Company shall
deliver such duly executed Securities on behalf of the Company, to the Buyer, against delivery of such Purchase Price.

 

1.2.
Closing Date. The date and time of the issuance and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement (the “Closing
Date”) shall be on or about July 6, 2020, or such other mutually agreed upon time. The closing of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall occur on the Closing Date at such location as may be agreed to by the
parties.

 

1.3.
Share Reservation. The Company shall at all times require its transfer agent to establish a reserve of shares of its authorized
but unissued and unreserved Common Stock in the amount of 25,000,000 shares for purposes of exercise of the Warrant or conversion
of the Note. The Company shall cause the Transfer Agent to agree that it will not reduce the reserve under any circumstances unless
such reduction is pre-approved in writing by the Buyer.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

2.
Buyer’s Investment Representations; Governing Law; Miscellaneous.

 

2.1
Buyer’s Investment Representations.

 

(a)
This Agreement is made in reliance upon the Buyer’s representation to the Company, which by its acceptance hereof Buyer
hereby confirms, that the Securities to be received by it will be acquired for investment for its own account, not as a nominee
or agent, and not with a view to the sale or distribution of any part thereof, and that it has no present intention of selling,
granting participation in, or otherwise distributing the same, but subject nevertheless to any requirement of law that the disposition
of its property shall at all times be within its control.

 

(b)
The Buyer understands that the Securities are not registered under the 1933 Act, on the basis that the sale provided for in this
Agreement and the issuance of securities hereunder is exempt from registration under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 4(a)(2)
thereof, and that the Company’s reliance on such exemption is predicated on the Buyer’s representations set forth
herein. The Buyer realizes that the basis for the exemption may not be present if, notwithstanding such representations, the Buyer
has in mind merely acquiring shares of the Securities for a fixed or determinable period in the future, or for a market rise,
or for sale if the market does not rise. The Buyer does not have any such intention.

 

(c)
The Buyer understands that the Securities may not be sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of without registration under the
1933 Act or an exemption therefrom, and that in the absence of an effective registration statement covering the Securities or
an available exemption from registration under the 1933 Act, the Stock must be held indefinitely. In particular, the Buyer is
aware that the Securities may not be sold pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 701 promulgated under the 1933 Act unless all of the conditions
of the applicable Rules are met. Among the conditions for use of Rule 144 is the availability of current information to the public
about the Company. The Buyer agrees that, in the absence of an effective registration statement covering the Securities, it will
sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of the Securities only in a manner consistent with its representations set forth herein and
then only in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(d) hereof.

 

(d)
The Buyer agrees that in no event will it make a transfer or disposition of any of the Securities (other than pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the 1933 Act), unless and until (i) the Buyer shall have notified the Company of the proposed disposition
and shall have furnished the Company with a statement of the circumstances surrounding the disposition, and (ii) if requested
by the Company, at the expense of the Buyer or transferee, the Buyer shall have furnished to the Company either (A) an opinion
of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such transfer may be made without registration under the
1933 Act or (B) a “no action” letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission to the effect that the transfer of
such securities without registration will not result in a recommendation by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission
that action be taken with respect thereto. The Company will not require such a legal opinion or “no action” letter
in any transaction in compliance with Rule 144.

 

(e)
The Buyer represents and warrants to the Company that it is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Securities
and Exchange Commission Rule 501 of Regulation D, as presently in effect and, for the purpose of Section 25102(f) of the California
Corporations Code, he or she is excluded from the count of “purchasers” pursuant to Rule 260.102.13 thereunder.

connection with this Agreement or any other Transaction Document by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or

or rule of law, then such provision shall be deemed inoperative to the extent that it may conflict therewith and shall be deemed
modified to conform with such statute or rule of law. Any provision hereof which may prove invalid or unenforceable under any
law shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.

2.8
Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors
and assigns. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the rights, interests or obligations of the Company hereunder may
not be assigned, by operation of law or otherwise, in whole or in part, by the Company without the prior written consent of the
Buyer, which consent may be withheld at the sole discretion of the Buyer; provided, however, that in the case of a merger,
sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets or other corporate reorganization, the Buyer shall not unreasonably withhold,
condition or delay such consent. This Agreement or any of the severable rights and obligations inuring to the benefit of or to
be performed by Buyer hereunder may be assigned by Buyer to a third party, including its financing sources, in whole or in part,
without the need to obtain the Company’s consent thereto.

 

2.9
Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted
successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person.

 

2.10
Survival. The representations and warranties of the Company and the agreements and covenants set forth in this Agreement
shall survive the Closing hereunder notwithstanding any due diligence investigation conducted by or on behalf of the Buyer. The
Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer and all its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, and agents for
loss or damage arising as a result of or related to any breach or alleged breach by the Company of any of its representations,
warranties and covenants set forth in this Agreement or any of its covenants and obligations under this Agreement, including advancement
of expenses as they are incurred.

 

2.11
No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to
express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party.

 

2.12
Remedies. The Company acknowledges that a breach by it of its obligations hereunder will cause irreparable harm to the
Buyer by vitiating the intent and purpose of the transaction contemplated hereby. Accordingly, the Company acknowledges that the
remedy at law for a breach of its obligations under this Agreement will be inadequate and agrees, in the event of a breach or
threatened breach by the Company of the provisions of this Agreement, that the Buyer shall be entitled, in addition to all other
available remedies at law or in equity, and in addition to the penalties assessable herein, to an injunction or injunctions restraining,
preventing or curing any breach of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without the necessity
of showing economic loss and without any bond or other security being required.

2.13
Buyer’s Rights and Remedies Cumulative. All rights, remedies, and powers conferred in this Agreement and the Transaction
Documents on the Buyer are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies, and shall be in addition to every other
right, power, and remedy that the Buyer may have, whether specifically granted in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document,
or existing at law, in equity, or by statute; and any and all such rights and remedies may be exercised from time to time and
as often and in such order as the Buyer may deem expedient.

 

2.14
Ownership Limitation. If at any time after the Closing, the Buyer shall or would receive shares of Common Stock in payment
of interest or principal under Note, upon exercise of the Warrant, so that the Buyer would, together with other shares of Common
Stock held by it or its Affiliates, own or beneficially own by virtue of such action or receipt of additional shares of Common
Stock a number of shares exceeding 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date (the “Maximum
Percentage”), the Company shall not be obligated and shall not issue to the Buyer shares of Common Stock which would
exceed the Maximum Percentage, but only until such time as the Maximum Percentage would no longer be exceeded by any such receipt
of shares of Common Stock by the Buyer. The foregoing limitations are enforceable, unconditional and non-waivable and shall apply
to all Affiliates and assigns of the Buyer.

 

2.15
No Shorting. For so long as Investor holds any securities of Company, neither Investor nor any of its Affiliates will engage
in or effect, directly or indirectly, any Short Sale of Common Stock.

 

2.16
Attorneys’ Fees and Cost of Collection. In the event of any action at law or in equity to enforce or interpret the
terms of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, the parties agree that the party who is awarded the most money
shall be deemed the prevailing party for all purposes and shall therefore be entitled to an additional award of the full amount
of the attorneys’ fees and expenses paid by such prevailing party in connection with the litigation and/or dispute without
reduction or apportionment based upon the individual claims or defenses giving rise to the fees and expenses. Nothing herein shall
restrict or impair a court’s power
