HOSTESS BRANDS, INC. 

2022 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN 

Effective as of June 8, 2022 
 I.
PURPOSE OF THE PLAN 
 This Hostess Brands, Inc. 2022 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) is intended to promote the
interests of the Company by providing eligible employees with the opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company through participation in a payroll-deduction based employee stock purchase plan intended to meet the requirements of
section 423 of the Code. 
 Capitalized terms herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in Article XII. 

II. ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN 
 A. The Plan
Administrator shall have full authority to interpret and construe any provision of the Plan and to adopt such rules and regulations for administering the Plan as it may deem necessary or appropriate in order to implement the Plan or to comply with
the requirements of section 423 of the Code. Decisions of the Plan Administrator shall be final and binding on all parties having an interest in the Plan. 

B. The Plan Administrator may authorize one or more offerings under the Plan that are not designed to comply with the requirements of Code
Section 423 but with the requirements of the foreign jurisdictions in which those offerings are conducted. Such offerings shall be separate from any offerings designed to comply with the Code Section 423 requirements but may be conducted
concurrently with those offerings. In no event, however, shall the terms and conditions of any offering contravene the express limitations and restrictions of the Plan, and to the extent required by Code Section 423, the participants in each
separate offering shall have equal rights and privileges under that offering in accordance with the requirements of Section 423(b)(5) of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations thereunder. 

C. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the Plan, the Plan Administrator may adopt such
sub-plans relating to the operation and administration of the Plan to accommodate the specific requirements of local laws and procedures for jurisdictions outside of the United States. 

III. STOCK SUBJECT TO PLAN; CONDITIONS TO ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK 

A. The stock purchasable under the Plan shall be shares of authorized but unissued or reacquired Common Stock, including shares of Common Stock
purchased on the open market. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock which may be issued over the term of the Plan shall not exceed 3,000,000 shares as of the Effective Date. 

B. Should any change be made to the Common Stock by reason of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger,
consolidation, combination of shares, exchange of shares, spin-off transaction or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class without the Company’s receipt of consideration, or should
the value of outstanding shares of Common Stock be substantially reduced as a result of a spin-off transaction or an extraordinary dividend or distribution, appropriate adjustments shall be made to
(i) the maximum number and class of securities issuable under the Plan, (ii) the maximum number and class of securities purchasable per Participant on any one Purchase Date and (iii) the number and class of securities and the price
per share in effect under each outstanding purchase right in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of benefits thereunder. 

  
 1 

 C. The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate or certificates
for, or make any book entries evidencing, shares of Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of rights under the Plan prior to fulfillment of all of the following conditions: 

(i) The admission of such shares of Common Stock to listing on all stock exchanges, if any, on which the Common Stock is then
listed; 
 (ii) The completion of any registration or other qualification of such shares of Common Stock under any state or
federal law or under the rulings or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental regulatory body that the Plan Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable; 

(iii) The obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any state or federal governmental agency that the Administrator
shall, in its absolute discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable; 
 (iv) The payment to the Company of all amounts
that it is required to withhold under federal, state or local law upon exercise of the rights, if any; and 
 (v) The lapse
of such reasonable period of time following the exercise of the rights as the Administrator may from time to time establish for reasons of administrative convenience. 

IV. PURCHASE/HOLDING PERIODS 
 A. Shares of
Common Stock shall be offered for purchase under the Plan through a series of successive purchase periods until such time as (i) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall have been purchased or
(ii) the Plan shall have been sooner terminated. 
 B. Except as otherwise provided in Section X or as otherwise provided by the Plan
Administrator, each purchase period shall have a duration of six (6) months, and in no event greater than twenty-seven (27) months. The Enrollment Date and Purchase Date for each purchase period shall be established by the Plan
Administrator from time to time. 
 V. ELIGIBILITY 

A. Each individual who (i) is an Eligible Employee on the Enrollment Date and (ii) has completed thirty (30) days of service
(or such other period of service as determined by the Plan Administrator) with the Company or any Corporate Affiliate prior to such Enrollment Date shall be eligible to participate in the Plan for that purchase period on such Enrollment Date. 

B. Each U.S. corporation that is a Corporate Affiliate as of the Effective Date has been designated as a Participating Company. Each U.S.
corporation that becomes a Corporate Affiliate after the Effective Date shall automatically become a Participating Company effective as of the Enrollment Date of the first purchase period coincident with or next following the date on which it
becomes such a Corporate Affiliate, unless the Plan Administrator determines otherwise prior to the Enrollment Date of that purchase period. Any other corporation that is a Corporate Affiliate as of the Effective Date or becomes a Corporate
Affiliate after the Effective Date and any Corporate Affiliate whose participation in the Plan is delayed by the Plan Administrator under the preceding sentence shall become a Participating Company when authorized by the Plan Administrator to extend
the benefits of the Plan to its Eligible Employees. 
 C. To participate in the Plan for a particular purchase period, the Eligible Employee
must complete and submit enrollment forms prescribed by the Plan Administrator (including a payroll deduction authorization and Stock Purchase Agreement) in accordance with enrollment procedures prescribed by the Plan Administrator (which may
include accessing a third party administrator’s website and enrolling electronically) on or before the Enrollment Date of the purchase period. Unless otherwise specified by the Plan Administrator, once an Eligible Employee timely submits the
properly completed enrollment forms, such Eligible Employee’s participation in the 

  
 2 

 
Plan will automatically remain in effect from one purchase period to the next in accordance with such Eligible Employee’s payroll deduction authorization (including such Eligible
Employee’s designated rate of payroll deduction) unless and until such Eligible Employee withdraws from the Plan, changes the rate of such Eligible Employee’s payroll deduction or such Eligible Employee’s employment status changes.

 VI. PAYROLL DEDUCTIONS 
 A. The payroll
deduction authorized by the Participant for purposes of acquiring shares of Common Stock under the Plan may be any multiple of one percent (1%) of the Base Salary paid to the Participant during each purchase period, up to a maximum of twenty-five
percent (25%) unless the Plan Administrator establishes a different maximum percentage prior to the Enrollment Date of the applicable purchase period (subject to the limitations of Section VII). The deduction rate so authorized shall continue in
effect for the entire purchase period except for changes effected in accordance with the following guidelines: 
 (i) The
Participant may, at any time during the purchase period, reduce the Participant’s rate of payroll deduction to become effective as soon as possible after submitting the appropriate form with the Plan Administrator. The Participant may not,
however, effect more than one such reduction per purchase period, unless otherwise provided in the applicable offering documents related to such purchase period. 

(ii) The Participant may at any time reduce such Participant’s rate of payroll deduction under the Plan to 0%. Such
reduction shall become effective as soon as possible after submitting the appropriate form with the Plan Administrator. The Participant’s existing payroll deductions shall be applied to the purchase of shares of Common Stock on the next
scheduled Purchase Date unless the Participant’s participation in the Plan has terminated in accordance with Section VII.F. 

(iii) The Participant may, at any time during the purchase period, increase the rate of such Participant’s payroll
deduction (up to the maximum percentage limit for that purchase period) to become effective for the next purchase period. 
 B. Payroll
deductions shall begin on the first pay day administratively feasible following the Enrollment Date of the purchase period and shall (unless sooner terminated by the Participant) continue through the pay day ending with or immediately prior to the
last day of the purchase period. The amounts so collected shall be credited to the Participant’s book account under the Plan, but no interest shall be paid on the balance from time to time outstanding in such account unless otherwise required
by the terms governing that purchase period. Unless the Plan Administrator determines otherwise prior to the start of the applicable purchase period, the amounts collected from the Participant shall not be held in any segregated account or trust
fund and may be commingled with the general assets of the Company and used for general corporate purposes. 
 C. Payroll deductions
collected in a currency other than U.S. Dollars shall be converted into U.S. Dollars on the last day of the purchase period in which collected, with such conversion to be based on an exchange rate determined by the Plan Administrator in its sole
discretion. 
 D. Payroll deductions shall automatically cease upon the termination of the Participant’s purchase right in accordance
with the provisions of the Plan. 
 E. To the extent necessary to comply with local law, the Plan Administrator may permit Participants in
one or more offerings to make contributions to the Plan by means other than payroll deductions. 
 VII. PURCHASE RIGHTS 

A. Grant of Purchase Right. A Participant shall be granted a separate purchase right on the Enrollment Date of each purchase period in
which he or she participates. The purchase right shall provide the Participant with the right to purchase shares of Common Stock on the Purchase Date upon the terms set forth below. 

  
 3 

 Under no circumstances shall purchase rights be granted under the Plan to any Eligible
Employee if such individual would, immediately after the grant, own (within the meaning of section 424(d) of the Code) or hold outstanding options or other rights to purchase, stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting
power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or any Corporate Affiliate. 
 B. Exercise of the Purchase Right. Each purchase
right shall be automatically exercised on the Purchase Date, and shares of Common Stock shall accordingly be purchased on behalf of each Participant (other than any Participant whose payroll deductions have previously been refunded in accordance
with the provisions of Section VII.B below) on such date. The purchase shall be affected by applying the Participant’s payroll deductions for the purchase period ending on such Purchase Date to the purchase of whole shares of Common Stock
(subject to the limitation on the maximum number of shares purchasable per Participant on any one Purchase Date) at the purchase price in effect for that purchase period. Fractional shares will not be issued under the Plan, unless otherwise
determined by the Plan Administrator and provided under the applicable offering document. Any excess contributions in a Participant’s account that would have been used to purchase fractional shares will be automatically re-invested in a
subsequent purchase period unless the Participant timely revokes such Participant’s authorization to re-invest such excess amounts or the Company elects to return such contributions to the Participant.

 C. Purchase Price. Effective with the initial purchase period commencing following the Effective Date and until such time as
otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator, the purchase price per share at which Common Stock will be purchased on the Participant’s behalf on each Purchase Date shall be equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the lower of
(i) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the Enrollment Date of the applicable purchase period or (ii) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the Purchase Date of the applicable purchase period. However, the Plan
Administrator may prior to the start of any purchase period establish a different purchase price per share at which Common Stock will be purchased on the Participant’s behalf on the Purchase Date for that purchase period, but in no event shall
such purchase price be less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the lower of (i) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the Enrollment Date of that purchase period or (ii) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on
that Purchase Date. 
 D. Number of Purchasable Shares. The number of shares of Common Stock purchasable by a Participant on each
Purchase Date shall be the number of shares obtained by dividing the amount collected from the Participant through payroll deductions during the purchase period ending with that Purchase Date by the purchase price in effect for that Purchase Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to the limitations described in Section II.B and Section VIII, in connection with any offering, the Plan Administrator may (i) specify a maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by
any single Participant on a Purchase Date, and if no such limit is specified, such limit shall be 625 shares of Common Stock; and (ii) elect to specify a maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by all
Participants pursuant to such offering. For the avoidance of doubt, the Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority, exercisable prior to the start of any purchase period under the Plan, to increase or decrease the limitations to be in
effect for the number of shares purchasable per Participant on the Purchase Date for that purchase period. 
 E. Excess Payroll
Deductions. Any payroll deductions not applied to the purchase of Common Stock by reason of any limitation on the maximum number of shares purchasable by the Participant on the Purchase Date (whether such limitation is pursuant to Section VII.D,
Section VIII or otherwise) shall be promptly refunded. 
 F. Termination of Purchase Right. The following provisions shall govern the
termination of outstanding purchase rights: 
 (i) A Participant may, no later than fifteen (15) days (or such other
period as determined by the Plan Administrator) prior to a Purchase Date for a purchase period, terminate such Participant’s outstanding purchase right by submitting the prescribed form in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Plan
Administrator (which may include accessing a third party administrator’s website and electronically electing 

  
 4 

 
to withdraw), and no further payroll deductions shall be collected from the Participant with respect to the terminated purchase right. Any payroll deductions collected during the purchase period
in which such termination occurs shall, at the Participant’s election, be immediately refunded or held for the purchase of shares on the next Purchase Date. If no such election is made at the time such purchase right is terminated, then the
payroll deductions collected with respect to the terminated right shall be refunded as soon as possible. 
 (ii) The
termination of such purchase right shall be irrevocable, and the Participant may not subsequently rejoin the purchase period for which the terminated purchase right was granted. In order to resume participation in any subsequent purchase period,
such individual must re-enroll in the Plan (in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Plan Administrator) on or before the Enrollment Date of the new purchase period. 

(iii) Should the Participant cease to remain an Eligible Employee for any reason (including death, disability or change in
status) while such Participant’s purchase right remains outstanding, then that purchase right shall immediately terminate, and all of the Participant’s payroll deductions for the purchase period in which the purchase right so terminates
shall be immediately refunded. However, should the Participant cease to remain in active service by reason of an approved unpaid leave of absence, then the Participant shall have the election, exercisable up until the business day preceding the
Purchase Date for the applicable purchase period in which such leave commences, to (a) withdraw all the funds in the Participant’s payroll account at the time of the commencement of such leave or (b) have such funds held for the
purchase of shares at the end of such purchase period. In no event, however, shall any further payment deductions be added to the Participant’s account during such leave. Upon the Participant’s return to active service (x) within
three (3) months following the commencement of such leave; or (y) prior to the expiration of any longer period for which such Participant is provided with reemployment rights by statute or contract, such Participant’s payroll deductions
under the Plan shall automatically resume at the rate in effect at the time the leave began. An individual who returns to active employment following a leave of absence which exceeds in duration the applicable (x) or (y) time period above will
be treated as a new Eligible Employee for purposes of subsequent participation in the Plan and must accordingly re-enroll in the Plan (in accordance with procedures prescribed by the Plan Administrator) on or
before the start of the purchase period. 
 G. Proration of Purchase Rights. Should the total number of shares of Common Stock which
are to be purchased pursuant to outstanding purchase rights on any particular date exceed the number of shares then available for issuance under the Plan, the Plan Administrator shall make a pro-rata
allocation of the available shares on a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis, and the payroll deductions of each Participant, to the extent in excess of the aggregate purchase price payable for the Common Stock
pro-rated to such individual, shall be refunded. 
 H. Change of Control. In the event that a
Change of Control occurs during a purchase period, the Plan Administrator may take such action as it deems appropriate, including (without limitation): 

(i) provide that each outstanding purchase right shall remain outstanding; 

(ii) provide that each outstanding purchase right will terminate as of a date prior to the effective date of the Change of
Control without being exercised and all payroll deductions of each Participant accumulated during such purchase period (and not previously applied to the purchase of shares) shall be refunded to the Participant; 

(iii) provide that a Purchase Date shall automatically occur immediately prior to the effective date of the Change of Control,
and each purchase right outstanding at that time shall thereupon be exercised by applying the payroll deductions of each Participant for the purchase period in which such Change of Control occurs to the purchase of shares of Common Stock at the
purchase price per share in effect for that purchase period pursuant to the purchase price formula provisions of Section VII.C; 

  
 5 

 (iv) provide than no new purchase period shall be initiated following the
announcement of such Change of Control; 
 (v) provide for a new date on or before the consummation of such Change of Control
that will be the Purchase Date for the applicable purchase period; or 
 (vi) provide that each outstanding purchase right
will be assumed or an equivalent right will be substituted by the successor corporation (or parent or subsidiary thereof). 
 I. ESPP
Brokerage Account. The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority to require that the shares purchased on behalf of each Participant be deposited directly into a brokerage account which the Company shall establish for the
Participant at a Company-designated brokerage firm (the “ESPP Brokerage Account”). Except as otherwise provided below, the deposited shares may not be transferred (either electronically or in certificate form) from the ESPP
Brokerage Account until the later of the following two periods: (i) the end of the two (2)-year period measured from the Participant’s Enrollment Date into the purchase period in which the shares were purchased and
(ii) the end of the one (1)-year measured from the actual Purchase Date of those shares. Such limitation shall apply both to transfers to different accounts with the same ESPP broker and to transfers to other brokerage firms. Any shares held
for the required holding period may be transferred (either electronically or in certificate form) to other accounts or to other brokerage firms. 

The foregoing procedures shall not in any way limit when the Participant may sell such Participant’s shares. Those
procedures are designed solely to assure that any sale of shares prior to the satisfaction of the required holding period is made through the ESPP Brokerage Account. In addition, the Participant may request a stock certificate or share transfer from
such Participant’s ESPP Brokerage Account prior to the satisfaction of the required holding period should the Participant wish to make a gift of any shares held in that account. However, shares may not be transferred (either electronically or
in certificate form) from the ESPP Brokerage Account for use as collateral for a loan, unless those shares have been held for the required holding period. 

The foregoing procedures shall apply to all shares purchased by the Participant under the Plan, whether or not the Participant continues in
Eligible Employee status. 
 J. Assignability. During the Participant’s lifetime, the purchase right shall be exercisable only
by the Participant and shall not be assignable or transferable by the Participant (other than by will or the laws of descent). 
 K.
Stockholder Rights. A Participant shall have no stockholder rights with respect to the shares subject to such Participant’s outstanding purchase right until the shares are purchased on the Participant’s behalf in accordance with the
provisions of the Plan and the Participant has become a holder of record of the purchased shares. 
 VIII. ACCRUAL LIMITATIONS 

A. No Participant shall be entitled to accrue rights to acquire Common Stock pursuant to any purchase right outstanding under this Plan if and
to the extent such accrual, when aggregated with (i) rights to purchase Common Stock accrued under any other purchase right granted under this Plan and (ii) similar rights accrued under other employee stock purchase plans (within the
meaning of section 423 of the Code) of the Company or any Corporate Affiliate, would otherwise permit such Participant to purchase more than $25,000 worth of stock of the Company or any Corporate Affiliate (determined on the basis of the Fair Market
Value of such stock on the date or dates such rights are granted) for each calendar year such rights are at any time outstanding. 
 B. For
purposes of applying such accrual limitations, the following provisions shall be in effect: 
 (i) The right to acquire
Common Stock under each outstanding purchase right shall accrue on the Purchase Date in effect for the purchase period for which such right is granted. 

  
 6 

 (ii) No right to acquire Common Stock under any outstanding purchase right
shall accrue to the extent the Participant has already accrued in the same calendar year the right to acquire Common Stock under one (1) or more other purchase rights at a rate equal to $25,000 worth of Common Stock (determined on the basis of
the Fair Market Value of such stock on the date or dates of grant) for each calendar year such rights were at any time outstanding. 
 C. If
by reason of such accrual limitations, any purchase right of a Participant does not accrue for a particular purchase period, then the payroll deductions which the Participant made during that purchase period with respect to such purchase right shall
be promptly refunded. 
 D. In the event there is any conflict between the provisions of this Section and one or more provisions of the Plan
or any instrument issued thereunder, the provisions of this Section shall be controlling. 
 IX. EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERM OF THE PLAN 

A. Subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders, the Plan shall be effective as of the Effective Date. 

B. Unless sooner terminated by the Board, the Plan shall terminate upon the earliest of (i) the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date,
(ii) the date on which all shares available for issuance under the Plan have been sold pursuant to purchase rights exercised under the Plan or (iii) the date on which all purchase rights are exercised in connection with a Change of
Control. No further purchase rights shall be granted or exercised, and no further payroll deductions shall be collected, under the Plan following its termination. 

X. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN 
 The Board may alter,
amend, suspend or discontinue the Plan at any time and for any reason; provided, however, the Board may not, without the approval of the Company’s stockholders, (i) increase the number of shares of Common Stock issuable under the
Plan, except for permissible adjustments in the event of certain changes in the Company’s capitalization or (ii) change the class of corporations that may be designated as Participating Companies. 

XI. GENERAL PROVISIONS 
 A. All costs and
expenses incurred in the administration of the Plan shall be paid by the Company. 
 B. Nothing in the Plan shall confer upon the
Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any Corporate Affiliate for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Company (or any Corporate Affiliate employing such
person) or of the Participant, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate such person’s employment at any time for any reason, with or without cause.
