    MEMBERSHIP INTEREST GRANT AGREEMENT

     

    This Membership Interest Grant Agreement (the “Agreement”) is effective as of January 1, 2017 (the “Effective Date”), and is made by and between DREAM FINDERS HOLDINGS, LLC (the “Company”) and Douglas Moran (the “Grantee”).

     

    Recitals:

     

    A.

    The Grantee
        is an employee of Dream Finders Homes, LLC (“Dream Finders Homes”), whose employment is governed by that certain Amended and Restated Employment Agreement of even date herewith, as may be further
        amended from time to time (the “Employment Agreement”).  Dream Finders Homes is a subsidiary of the Company, and
        this Agreement is being entered in consideration of the Grantee’s continued employment with Dream Finders Homes.

     

    B.

    All Members of the Company are
        required to execute and agree to be bound to the Company’s Amended and Restated Operating Agreement (the “Amended Operating Agreement”).  By accepting the Granted Units (as defined below), the Grantee
        agrees to be bound by and subject to the terms of the Amended Operating Agreement, which contains the Grantee’s rights and obligations with respect to the Granted Units in the Company.  Any terms not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed
        in such terms in the Amended Operating Agreement.

     

    Agreement:

     

    In consideration of the premises, the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
      sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

     

    1.

    Grant of Units.  The Company hereby grants to
        the Grantee 1,010.10101 Common Non-Voting Units of the Company (the “Granted Units”); provided that the Grantee’s rights in the Granted Units shall be restricted and subject to divestiture and/or
        redemption as provided herein and as provided in the Amended Operating Agreement.

     

    2.

    Restrictions Pertaining to the Granted Units. 
        The Grantee shall not have the right to make or permit to exist any transfer or hypothecation, whether outright or as security for any obligation, with or without consideration, voluntary or involuntary, of all or any part of any right, title, or
        interest in or to any Granted Units.  Any such disposition shall be deemed null and void.  The Company will not recognize, or have the duty to recognize, any such disposition.  The Grantee may not sell, pledge or otherwise directly or indirectly
        transfer (whether with or without consideration and whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law) any interest in or any beneficial interest in any Granted Units.  Any sale, pledge, or other transfer (or any attempt to effect the
        same) of any Granted Units in violation of hereof shall be void, and the Company shall not record such transfer, assignment, pledge, or other disposition on its books or treat any purported transferee of such Granted Units as the owner of such
        Granted Units for any purpose.

    
      
        

    

     

    The Granted Units shall vest according to the following schedule:

     

    	
            Date of Vesting

          	
            Percentage of Granted Units that Become

              Vested Units

            January 1, 2020

          	
            60%

            80%

          
	
            January 1, 2022

          	
            100%

          

     

    The Granted Units that shall have become vested pursuant to the above Vesting Schedule are herein referred to as “Vested

          Units”.  The unvested Granted Units (“Unvested Units”) shall be forfeited back to the Company immediately upon the Grantee’s Termination of Service.  Additionally, upon the forfeiture of
      any Unvested Units, the Capital Account associated with such Unvested Units will likewise be forfeited.  “Termination of Service” shall mean the effective date of the Grantee’s termination as an employee
      of Dream Finders Homes for any reason other than Grantee’s termination For Cause (as defined below).  No portion of the Granted Units shall vest after a Termination of Service.  In the event that the Company has a Liquidity Event (as hereafter
      defined) prior to the first anniversary of the Effective Date, then fifty percent (50%) of the Granted Units shall be deemed Vested Units.  If the Company has a Liquidity Event on or after the first anniversary of the Effective Date, then one hundred
      percent (100%) of the Granted Units shall be deemed Vested Units.  The term “Liquidity Event” means any one transaction or a series of related transactions in which the Company (i) sells substantially
      all of its assets to an unrelated third party, (ii) transfers control of the Company along with the majority of the economic rights to a third-party (excluding any transaction where the Company incurs debt, which may include certain control and/or
      approval rights that are provided to the lender in such a transaction), (iii) merges with another entity where the Members of the Company immediately prior to the transaction do not retain majority economic or voting control of the successor entity,
      or (iv) sells common equity securities through an underwritten public offering where a registration statement is filed pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933.  The Grantee expressly acknowledges that the Company may elect not to make any
      distributions with respect to the Granted Units, but that if distributions are made by the Company, then the Company may make distributions, in the Company’s sole discretion, which will be made with respect to Vested Units only (and not with respect
      to any Unvested Units).  As provided under the Amended Operating Agreement, the Grantee will be entitled to receive Tax Distributions both with respect to Vested Units and Unvested Units to the extent that the Grantee may be allocated income from the
      Company.

     

    All of the Granted Units (regardless of whether they are Vested Units or Unvested Units) shall be forfeited back to the Company immediately in the event
      that the Grantee’s employment with Dream Finders Homes is terminated For Cause (as defined below) or in the event that Grantee violates the terms of the Restrictive Covenants set forth in the Employment Agreement (the “Restrictive Covenants”).  In the event that the Granted Units are forfeited under this paragraph, then the Capital Account associated with such forfeited Granted Units will likewise be forfeited, and the Grantee will no longer
      have any rights as a Member of the Company effective upon the date that the Grantee is provided with notice of termination For Cause or notice of breach of the Restrictive Covenants (as the case may be).  “For
          Cause” shall mean a termination by Dream Finders Homes for “Cause” as defined in the Employment Agreement.

    
      
        

    

     

    Upon a Termination of Service by the Grantee or by Dream Finders Homes other than For Cause, the Company will redeem any Vested Units
      for a purchase price that is equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Capital Account associated with the Vested Units as of the date of such Termination of Service (the “Vested Units Purchase Price”).  The
      Vested Units Purchase Price will be paid by delivery of a promissory note from the Company to the Grantee, which will provide for (a) quarterly payments of principal and interest over a five-year term, (b) interest at four percent (4%) per annum, (c)
      venue and jurisdiction in Duval County, Florida, in the event of any dispute arising out of the promissory note, and (d) a waiver of any right to a trial by jury.  The effective date for the redemption of any Vested Units will be the date of the
      Termination of Service, and delivery of the promissory note for the Vested Units Purchase Price will be within thirty (30) days after the Termination of Service.  The Grantee expressly acknowledges and agrees that after a Termination of Service that
      Grantee will have no rights as a Member of the Company, and that Grantee’s sole recourse will be for payment of the Vested Units Purchase Price by receiving the promissory note contemplated by this paragraph.

     

    There are other events as provided in the Amended Operating Agreement which would create a right of the Company to repurchase the
      Granted Units on terms provided therein.

     

    The Grantee acknowledges that the Granted Units are intended to qualify as “profits interests” within the meaning of Internal Revenue
      Service Revenue Procedures 93-27 and 2001-43, or any future Internal Revenue Service guidance.  Accordingly, the Grantee covenants to execute any and all documentation required by the Company to ensure that the Granted Units are deemed “profits
      interests,” which may include, but is not limited to, filing an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code.  Additionally, so that the Granted Units will be treated as “profits interests” rather than “capital interests”, the Grantee
      expressly agrees that as of the Effective Date, before Grantee can receive any distributions with respect to the Granted Units, all of the other holders of Units as of the Effective Date must first receive distributions in the amount of such Members’
      Capital Accounts as of December 31, 2016 (the “Distribution Threshold”).  The amount of the Distribution Threshold was determined by the Company in good faith so that if the Company sold its assets at
      fair market value as of the Effective Date and the proceeds were distributed in a complete liquidation of the Company, the Grantee would not receive any distribution with respect to the Granted Units.

     

    3.

    Consideration Payable Upon Liquidity Event.  If
        the Company experiences a Liquidity Event, the Grantee shall be entitled to elect to either (a) retain Grantee’s Vested Units, or (b) forfeit the Vested Units to the Company in exchange for payment of the Liquidity Event Bonus described in the
        Employment Agreement.  Grantee shall make such election in writing delivered to the Company no later than ten (10) business days following written notice from the Company of a Liquidity Event.  If no election is made within such ten (10) business
        day period, the Grantee will be deemed to have elected to retain Grantee’s Vested Units and no Liquidity Event Bonus shall be due or payable.  In order for the Grantee to receive the compensation as provided in this section, the Grantee must be
        willing to continue his employment with the successor entity after the Liquidity Event, and must also be willing to enter into such other agreements concerning the Grantee’s continued employment with such successor entity as may be reasonably
        requested (including appropriate confidentiality agreements, restrictive covenants, etc.).

    
      
        

    

     

    4.

    Investment Intent; Disclosure.  The Grantee
        represents and warrants to the Company that the Grantee is acquiring the Granted Units in the Company under this Agreement for investment and not with a view to resale or distribution thereof.  The Grantee further represents and warrants to the
        Company that the Grantee understands that:  (a) the Granted Units have not been registered under the federal Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) in reliance upon an exemption from
        registration; (b) the Granted Units must be held indefinitely, unless the Granted Units are later registered under the Securities Act or unless an exemption from registration is otherwise available; and (c) the Company has no obligation to register
        the Granted Units.  The Grantee agrees that the Granted Units will not be offered, sold, transferred, pledged, or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an opinion of counsel
        acceptable to the Manager of the Company that such registration is not required.  The Grantee represents and warrants that it has sufficient experience in investment and business matters to recognize and understand the advantages and disadvantages
        of its acceptance of the Granted Units, and the Grantee represents and warrants that it is able to bear the economic risks related to the Granted Units, including the possible total loss of value of the Granted Units, and that the Grantee has no
        need for liquidity with respect to the value of the Granted Units.  The Grantee acknowledges that it has conducted his own review of the prospects of the Company and has reviewed all information it deems necessary regarding the business of the
        Company, and neither the Company nor any person acting on behalf of the Company has made any representations or warranties regarding the Company or its business that the Grantee has relied upon that are important in executing this Agreement and
        accepting the Granted Units, and the Grantee represents and warrants that he has made the decision to accept the Granted Units based upon his independent business judgment.

     

    5.

    Certificates.  In the event that the Granted
        Units are or become certificated, the Grantee shall receive certificate(s) for the Granted Units designating him as the registered owner thereof.  Upon such receipt, the Grantee agrees to deliver the certificate(s) together with a signed and
        undated power of attorney to the Company or the Company’s designee authorizing the Managing Member to transfer title to the certificate(s) representing any Granted Units that are forfeited to the Company under the terms of this Agreement and/or the
        Amended Operating Agreement.  Such certificate(s), if any, shall be held by the Company in escrow until the Granted Units become vested and shall bear the legends required under the Amended Operating Agreement and any other legends that the
        Managers in their sole discretion deem proper.

     

    6.

    83(b) Election.  The Grantee is recommended to
        make a valid, timely election to include in the Grantee’s current year income, the “fair market value” of the Granted Units, pursuant to Code Section 83(b).  Upon making such election, the Grantee shall promptly furnish a copy of the election to
        the Company and shall file the election with the IRS with in the requisite 30-day period.  For the purposes of such election, the Granted Units are not expected to have any “fair market value” as of the Grant Date, as there is a Distribution
        Threshold so that if all of the Company’s assets were sold at fair market value as of the Grant Date, then the holders of all of the other Units, other than the Grantee with respect to the Granted Units, would be the sole Persons to receive
        Distributions.  THE COMPANY SHALL BEAR NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR ANY ADVERSE TAX CONSEQUENCES RESULTING FROM THE GRANTEE’S CODE SECTION 83(b) ELECTION OR THE GRANTEE’S FAILURE TO MAKE SUCH ELECTION.  THE GRANTEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES
        THAT HE HAS BEEN URGED TO CONSULT WITH HIS PERSONAL TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE CONSEQUENCES OF MAKING, OR NOT MAKING, A CODE SECTION 83(b) ELECTION.  Upon making such Code Section 83(b) election, the Grantee must pay to the Company in cash the
        amount of any federal, state or local income or other taxes determined by the Company to be due in connection with such election, if any.  The Grantee agrees that the Company may, except as explicitly prohibited by applicable law, withhold all such
        legally required amounts from any other payments due, or becoming due, to the Grantee from the Company until such withholding obligation is satisfied in full.

    
      
        

    

     

    7.

    No Right to Continued Employment.  This Agreement shall not confer upon the Grantee any right with respect to continuance of
        employment by Dream Finders Homes, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of Dream Finders Homes to terminate the Grantee’s employment for any reason, with or without Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement), or otherwise affect the
        Grantee’s at-will employment status.

     

    8.

        any necessary documents to implement this Agreement, including but not limited to an Agreement to be Bound by Operating Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.  This Agreement will not be

        raise the use of a facsimile machine or digital imaging and electronic mail to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature was transmitted or communicated through the use of a facsimile machine or digital imaging and electronic mail as a
        defense to the information of a contract and each such party forever waives any such defense.

 Exhibit 10.1 

COOPERATION AGREEMENT 

This Cooperation Agreement, dated as of December 21, 2020 (this “Agreement”), is by and among Evolent Health, Inc. (the
“Company”) and the persons and entities set forth on Exhibit A hereto (the “Engaged Group,” and, for clarity and as applicable, including each member thereof acting individually). 

RECITALS 
 WHEREAS, the
Company and Engaged Capital, LLC, a member of the Engaged Group, have engaged in various discussions and communications concerning the Company’s business, financial performance and strategic plans; 

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the Engaged Group is the Beneficial Owner (as defined below) of 8,553,155 shares of Class A common
stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”), or approximately 9.96% of the Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date hereof; and 

WHEREAS, the Company and the Engaged Group have determined to come to an agreement with respect to certain matters relating to the composition
of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and certain other matters, as provided in this Agreement. 

AGREEMENT 
 NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties (as defined
below), intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows: 
 1.    Board Appointments, Committees and
Related Agreements. 
 (a)    Board Matters. 

(i)    Immediately following the execution of this Agreement, the Board and all applicable committees of
the Board shall take all necessary actions to appoint Craig A. Barbarosh (the “New Director”) as a Class III director of the Board with a term expiring at the 2021 annual meeting of stockholders of the Company (the
“2021 Annual Meeting”). 
 (ii)    The Board will include the New Director as a nominee
for election to the Board on the slate of nominees recommended by the Board in the Company’s proxy statement and on its proxy card relating to the 2021 Annual Meeting and take all necessary or appropriate actions to cause the election of the
New Director to the Board at the 2021 Annual Meeting, including: (A) recommending that the Company’s stockholders vote in favor of the New Director, and (B) otherwise supporting the New Director in a manner no less rigorous and
favorable than the manner in which the Company supports the Board’s other nominees. 

  
 1 

 (iii)    The Board and all applicable committees of the
Board shall take all necessary actions to seek the approval of the Company’s stockholders at the 2021 Annual Meeting of an amendment to the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”)
to declassify the structure of the Board (the “Declassification Proposal”) such that directors standing for election at and subsequent to the 2021 Annual Meeting shall stand for election to
one-year terms (with it being acknowledged and agreed that if the Declassification Proposal is approved by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with the Charter and the General Corporation Law of the
State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), then the Company’s Class III directors (including the New Director) will be elected at the 2021 Annual Meeting with terms of office expiring at the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders of the
Company (the “2022 Annual Meeting”)). The Board shall recommend in favor of, and use its reasonable best efforts to solicit stockholder approval of, the Declassification Proposal at the 2021 Annual Meeting, and all directors and
executive officers of the Company agree to vote all shares Beneficially Owned by them and over which they have voting control in favor of the Declassification Proposal. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company agrees to (A) engage Saratoga
Proxy Consulting LLC as a proxy solicitor on reasonable and customary terms to solicit stockholder approval of the Declassification Proposal and (B) to adjourn the 2021 Annual Meeting for up to two (2) weeks (with the length of any such
adjournment to be determined by the Company in reasonable consultation with the Engaged Group and consistent with the desire to approve the Declassification Proposal) to solicit additional stockholder support for the Declassification Proposal if as
of immediately prior to the commencement of the 2021 Annual Meeting at least 75% of the outstanding Common Stock has not voted in favor of the Declassification Proposal. 

(iv)    During the period commencing with the date of this Agreement through the expiration of the
Termination Date the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall not increase the size of the Board to more than ten (10) directors without the prior written consent of the Engaged Group. 

(b)    Strategy Committee. Promptly following the execution of this Agreement, the Board shall establish a Strategy
Committee of the Board (the “Strategy Committee”) to make recommendations to the Board with respect to value creation initiatives, including through improvements to the Company’s operations, financial performance (including
cost reduction) and overall business strategy and direction. Until the Termination Date, the Strategy Committee shall consist of four (4) non-executive Board members, including the New Director who shall
serve on the Strategy Committee. 
 (c)    Director Committee Appointments. Subject to the Company’s
Corporate Governance Guidelines and NYSE rules and applicable laws, the Board and all applicable committees of the Board shall take all actions necessary to ensure that from and after the appointment of the New Director to the Board and until the
Termination Date, the New Director 

  
 2 

 
is appointed to the Compensation Committee of the Board. Further, subject to the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines and NYSE rules and applicable laws, the Board and all applicable
committees of the Board shall take all action necessary to ensure that until the Termination Date, any executive committee of the Board or any committee of the Board tasked with evaluating an Extraordinary Transaction (as defined below) shall
include the New Director. Without limiting the foregoing, the Board shall give the New Director the same due consideration for membership to any committee of the Board as any other independent director. 

(d)    Replacement Director. From the date of this Agreement until the Termination Date, if the New Director is
unable or unwilling to serve as a director, resigns as a director or is removed as a director, and so long as the Engaged Group continuously Beneficially Owns in the aggregate at least the lesser of (A) 5.0% of the Company’s then outstanding
Common Stock and (B) 4,288,937 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment for stock splits, reclassifications and combinations, the “Ownership Minimum”), then the Engaged Group shall have the ability to recommend a
substitute person(s) to replace the New Director in accordance with this Section 1(d) (any such replacement director, a “Replacement Director”). The appointment of any Replacement Director shall be subject
to (A) the execution and delivery by such Replacement Director of a fully completed copy of the Company’s standard director and officer questionnaire and other reasonable and customary director onboarding documentation required by the
Company in connection with the appointment or election of new Board members; (B) such Replacement Director satisfying the Director Criteria (as defined below); and (C) the approval of the Board (it being acknowledged that the Board cannot
unreasonably withhold its approval), taking into account the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Board (the “Nominating Committee”). The Nominating Committee shall make its determination and
recommendation regarding whether such candidate so qualifies within five (5) Business Days after such candidate has submitted to the Company the documentation required by Section 1(e)(iv) below. In the event the
Nominating Committee does not accept a substitute person recommended by the Engaged Group as the Replacement Director (it being acknowledged that the Nominating Committee cannot unreasonably withhold its approval), the Engaged Group shall have the
right to recommend additional substitute person(s) whose appointment shall be subject to the Nominating Committee recommending such person in accordance with the procedures described above. Upon the recommendation of a Replacement Director candidate
by the Nominating Committee, the Board shall review, approve and vote on the appointment of such Replacement Director to the Board no later than five (5) Business Days after the Nominating Committee’s recommendation of such Replacement
Director; provided, however, that if the Board does not approve and appoint such Replacement Director to the Board (it being acknowledged that the Board cannot unreasonably withhold its approval), the Parties shall continue to follow
the procedures of this Section 1(d) until a Replacement Director is approved and appointed to the Board. Upon a Replacement Director’s appointment to the Board, the Board and all applicable committees of the Board
shall consider whether such Replacement Director has the necessary qualifications to be appointed to any committee of the Board of which the replaced director was a member immediately prior to such director’s departure from the Board, and, if
the qualifications for such committee(s) are met, shall appoint such Replacement Director to such committee(s) or, if the qualifications for such committee(s) are not met, shall consider in good faith appointing the Replacement Director to other
committees of the Board. Any Replacement Director designated pursuant to this Section 1(d) replacing the New Director prior to the 2021 Annual Meeting shall stand for election at the 2021 Annual Meeting together

  
 3 

 
with the Company’s other nominees. Upon a Replacement Director’s appointment to the Board, such Replacement Director shall be deemed to be the New Director for all purposes under this
Agreement. 
 (e)    Additional Agreements. 

(i)    The Engaged Group agrees (A) to cause its Affiliates and Associates (each as defined below) to
comply with the terms of this Agreement and (B) that it shall be responsible for any breach of this Agreement by any such Affiliate or Associate. A breach of this Agreement by an Affiliate or Associate of any member of the Engaged Group, if
such Affiliate or Associate is not a Party, shall be deemed to occur if such Affiliate or Associate engages in conduct that would constitute a breach of this Agreement if such Affiliate or Associate were a Party to the same extent as the Engaged
Group. 
 (ii)    Until the Termination Date, the Engaged Group agrees that it shall, and shall cause
each of its Affiliates and Associates to, appear in person or by proxy or participate virtually at each annual or special meeting of the stockholders of the Company, or any action by written consent of the Company’s stockholders in lieu
thereof, and any adjournment, postponement, rescheduling or continuation thereof (each, a “Stockholder Meeting”) and vote all Voting Securities (as defined below) Beneficially Owned, directly or indirectly, by the Engaged Group or
any such Affiliate or Associate (or which the Engaged Group or such Affiliate or Associate has the right or ability to vote) at such meeting (A) in favor of the nominees for director recommended by the Board, against or withhold from voting in
favor of the election of any nominee for director not approved, recommended and nominated by the Board for election at any such meeting, and against any removal of any director of the Board; (B) in favor of the Declassification Proposal; and
(C) in accordance with the Board’s recommendation with respect to any other matter presented at such meeting; provided, however, that in the event Institutional Shareholder Services Inc. (“ISS”) or Glass
Lewis & Co., LLC (“Glass Lewis”) recommends otherwise with respect to any proposals (other than the election of directors or the Declassification Proposal), the Engaged Group shall be permitted to vote in accordance with
the ISS or Glass Lewis recommendation; provided, further, that the Engaged Group shall be permitted to vote in its sole discretion with respect to any publicly announced proposals relating to an Extraordinary Transaction. 

(iii)    Until the Termination Date, upon written request from the Company, the Engaged Group shall
promptly provide the Company with information regarding the amount of the securities of the Company then Beneficially Owned by the Engaged Group. Such information provided to the Company shall be kept strictly confidential unless required to be
disclosed pursuant to law, the rules of any stock exchange or any Legal Requirement (as defined below). 

(iv)    Prior to the date of this Agreement, the New Director has submitted to the Company a fully
completed copy of the Company’s standard director & officer questionnaire and other reasonable and customary director onboarding 

  
 4 

 
documentation required by the Company of all current directors in connection with the appointment or election of new Board members. Any Replacement Director will also promptly (but in any event
prior to being placed on the Board in accordance with this Agreement) submit to the Company a fully completed copy of the Company’s standard director & officer questionnaire and other reasonable and customary director onboarding
documentation required by the Company of all current non-employee directors in connection with the appointment or election of new Board members. 

2.    Standstill Agreement.

to, directly or indirectly, in any manner, alone or in concert with others: 
 (i)    (A) acquire, cause
to be acquired, or offer, seek or agree to acquire, whether by purchase, tender or exchange offer, through the acquisition of control of another person, by joining or forming a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group (including

“Acquisition”), Beneficial Ownership of any securities or assets of the Company (or any direct or indirect rights or options to acquire such ownership, including voting rights decoupled from the underlying Voting Securities) such
that after giving effect to any such Acquisition, the Engaged Group or any of its Affiliates and Associates holds, directly or indirectly, in excess of 12.0% of the Voting Securities, (B) acquire, cause to be acquired or offer, seek or agree to
acquire, whether by purchase or otherwise, any interest in any indebtedness of the Company, or (C) acquire, cause to be acquired or offer, seek or agree to acquire, ownership of any asset or business of the Company or any right or option to
acquire any such asset or business from any person;

person to submit any nomination in furtherance of a “contested solicitation” or take any other action in respect of the election or removal of any director (in each case other than pursuant to Section 1), (C)
submit, or seek or knowingly encourage the submission of, any stockholder proposal (pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act or otherwise) for consideration at, or bring any other business before, any

Affiliates or Associates from taking actions in furtherance of identifying director candidates in connection with the 2022 Annual Meeting so long as such actions do 

  
 5 

 
not create a public disclosure obligation for the Engaged Group or the Company and are undertaken on a basis reasonably designed to be confidential and in accordance in all material respects with
the Engaged Group’s normal practices in the circumstances; 
 (iii)    solicit any proxy, consent or
other authority to vote of stockholders or conduct any other referendum (binding or non-binding) (including any “withhold,” “vote no” or similar campaign) with respect to, or from the
holders of, Voting Securities, or become a “participant” (as such term is defined in Instruction 3 to Item 4 of Schedule 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act) in, or knowingly assist, advise, initiate, encourage or influence any person
(other than the Company) in, any “solicitation” of any proxy, consent or other authority to vote any Voting Securities (other than such assistance, advice, encouragement or influence that is consistent with the Board’s recommendation
in connection with such matter); 
 (iv)    (A) grant any proxy, consent or other authority to vote with
respect to any matters (other than to the named proxies included in the Company’s proxy card for any Stockholder Meeting or as otherwise permitted by Section 1(e)(ii)) or (B) deposit or agree or propose to deposit
any securities of the Company in any voting trust or similar arrangement, or subject any securities of the Company to any agreement or arrangement with respect to the voting of such securities (including a voting agreement or pooling arrangement),
other than (I) any such voting trust or arrangement solely for the purpose of delivering to the Company or its designee a proxy, consent or other authority to vote in connection with a solicitation made by or on behalf of the Company or
(II) customary brokerage accounts, margin accounts and prime brokerage accounts so long as a member of the Engaged Group retains the sole right to vote any such securities at any Stockholder Meeting; 

(v)    knowingly encourage, advise or influence any person or knowingly assist any person in so
encouraging, advising or influencing any person, with respect to the giving or withholding of any proxy, consent or authority to vote any Voting Securities or in conducting any referendum (binding or
non-binding) (including any “withhold,” “vote no,” or similar campaign); 

(vi)    without the prior written approval of the Company, separately or in conjunction with any other
person in which it is or proposes to be either a principal, partner or financing source or is acting or proposes to act as broker or agent for compensation, propose, suggest or recommend publicly or in a manner that the Engaged Group is required
under applicable law, rule or regulation to disclose publicly or participate in, effect or seek to effect any Extraordinary Transaction or knowingly encourage any other third party in any such activity; provided, that nothing in this
Section 2(a)(vi) shall be interpreted to prohibit the Engaged Group from proposing, suggesting or recommending any Extraordinary Transaction privately to the Company so long as any such action is not publicly disclosed by
the Engaged Group and is made by the Engaged Group in a manner that would not reasonably be expected to require the public disclosure thereof by the Company, the Engaged Group or any other person; 

  
 6 

 (vii)    form, join, encourage the formation of, or in
any way participate in any partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) with respect to any Voting Securities (other than a group that includes all or some of the members of
the Engaged Group, but does not include any other entities or persons that are not members of the Engaged Group as of the date hereof; provided that nothing herein shall limit the ability of an Affiliate of the Engaged Group to join such
group following the execution of this Agreement, so long as any such Affiliate agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement); 

(viii)    make or publicly advance any request or proposal to amend, modify or waive any provision of this
Agreement, or take any action challenging the validity or enforceability of any provision of or obligation arising under this Agreement; provided that the Engaged Group may make confidential requests to the Board to amend, modify or waive any
provision of this Agreement, which the Board may accept or reject in its sole and absolute discretion, so long as any such request is not publicly disclosed by the Engaged Group and is made by the Engaged Group in a manner that would not reasonably
be expected to require the public disclosure thereof by the Company, the Engaged Group or any other person; 

(ix)    make a request for a list of the Company’s stockholders or for any books and records of the
Company pursuant to Section 220 of the DGCL; or 
 (x)    enter into any discussion, negotiation,
agreement, arrangement or understanding concerning any of the foregoing (other than this Agreement) or encourage, assist, solicit, seek, or seek to cause any person to undertake any action inconsistent with this Section 2.

 (b)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the foregoing provisions of this
Section 2 shall not be deemed to restrict the Engaged Group from: (i) communicating privately with the Board or any of the Company’s officers regarding any matter, so long as such communications are not intended
to, and would not reasonably be expected to, require any public disclosure of such communications, (ii) communicating privately with stockholders of the Company and others in a manner that does not otherwise violate this
Section 2 or Section 5, or (iii) making any public disclosure necessary to comply with any Legal Requirement. Furthermore, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed
to restrict in any way the New Director in the exercise of its fiduciary duties under applicable law as a director of the Company. 

3.    Representations and Warranties of All Parties. Each Party represents and warrants to the other
Party that (a) such Party has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder, (b) this Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by it and is a
valid and binding obligation of such Party, enforceable against such Party in accordance with its terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy and similar laws relating to creditors’ rights and to general equity principles) and (c) this
Agreement will not result in a material violation of any (i) term or condition of any agreement to which such person is a party or by which such Party may otherwise be bound or (ii) law, rule, license, regulation, judgment, order or decree
governing or affecting such Party.

Affiliates against the other Party or its Affiliates; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prevent any Party or any of its Representatives from responding to oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or
documents, subpoenas, civil investigative demands or similar processes (each, a “Legal Requirement”) in connection with any Legal Proceeding if such Legal Proceeding has not been initiated by, on behalf of or at the suggestion of
such Party; provided, further, that in the event any Party or any of its Representatives receives such Legal Requirement, such Party shall give prompt written notice of such Legal Requirement to the other Party (except where such
notice would be legally prohibited or not practicable). Each Party represents and warrants that neither it nor any assignee has filed any lawsuit against the other Party.

of any judgment in respect of this Agreement and any rights and obligations arising hereunder brought by the other Party or its successors or assigns, shall be brought and determined exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state

any Chosen Court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper or (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by the Chosen Courts. EACH PARTY HERETO
HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT.

 13 

 17.    No Waiver. Any waiver by any Party of a
breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate as or be construed to be a waiver of any other breach of such provision or of any breach of any other provision of this Agreement. The failure of a Party to insist upon strict adherence to
any term of this Agreement on one or more occasions shall not be considered a waiver of, or deprive that Party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to, that term or any other term of this Agreement. 

18.    Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the Parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may only be amended pursuant to a written agreement executed by each Party.
