THE BRINK’S COMPANY  
(Amended and Restated as of April 1, 2020) 
 
 
PREAMBLE
The Key Employees’ Deferred Compensation Program of The Brink’s Company, as amended and restated (the “Program”), provides an opportunity to certain employees to defer receipt of (a) up to 90% of their cash incentive payments awarded under the Incentive Plan and any stock unit awards; (b) up to 50% of their base salary; (c) any or all amounts that are prevented from being deferred as a matched contribution under The Brink’s Company 401(k) Plan as a result of limitations imposed by Sections 401(a)(17), 401(k)(3), 402(g) and 415 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”); and (d) any and all other amounts that the Committee (as defined below), in its sole discretion, shall allow.
In order to align the interests of participants more closely to the long term interests of The Brink’s Company (the “Company”) and its shareholders, the Program also (a) provides matching contributions with respect to certain cash incentive awards and salary deferrals for certain participants designated by the Committee and (b) allocates under the Program an amount equivalent to matching contributions that are not eligible to be made under The Brink’s Company 401(k) Plan as a result of limitations imposed by Code Section 401(m)(2).
The Program is an unfunded plan maintained primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees, within the meaning of Section 201(2) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any compensation, bonuses or incentive payments approved by the Committee payable pursuant to any special recognition bonus payable to any highly compensated employees, shall be excluded for purposes of defining or determining the Cash Incentive Payment for which an Employee may make an elective deferral, and for which Matching Incentive Contributions (as defined below) are made, pursuant to the terms of the Program.

Section 3.02.  Eligibility.  The Committee shall determine on an annual basis for each Year which Employees (a) may participate in the benefits provided pursuant to this Article 3 and (b) shall be eligible to receive a Matching Incentive Contribution benefit provided pursuant to this Article 3.
Section 3.03.  Deferral of Cash Incentive Payments.  Each Employee whom the Committee has selected to be eligible to defer a Cash Incentive Payment for any Year pursuant to this Article 3 may make an election to defer an amount, expressed as a percentage from 10% to 90%, of such Cash Incentive Payment which may be made to him or her for such Year.  Such Employee’s election for such Year shall be made prior to the beginning of the Year with respect to which the Cash Incentive Payment is earned (and as otherwise permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(a)) by filing a deferral election form with the Company.  Such deferral election form shall include the Employee’s written election as to time and form of distribution of such deferred amounts in accordance with Article 8.  A Cash Incentive Account and/or Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account (which may be the same such accounts established p

6

ursuant to Articles 4 and/or 5) shall be established for each Employee making such election, and cash and/or Units, as applicable, in respect of such deferred amounts shall be credited to such accounts as provided in Section 3.06 below. 
Section 3.04.  Matching Incentive Contributions.  Each Employee who has been designated by the Committee as eligible to receive Matching Incentive Contributions for any Year pursuant to Section 3.02, and who has deferred a percentage of his or her Cash Incentive Payment for such Year pursuant to Section 3.03, shall have a Matching Incentive Contribution allocated to his or her Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account for such Year.  The amount of such Matching Incentive Contribution for any Year shall be equal to the portion of his or her Cash Incentive Payment that he or she has elected to defer for such Year but not in excess of 10% of his or her Cash Incentive Payment.  The dollar amount of each Employee’s Matching Incentive Contributions deferred to his or her Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account shall be converted into Units and credited to such Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account as provided in Section 3.06 below.  Stock Unit Deferrals are not eligible for Matching Incentive Contributions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Matching Incentive Contributions shall be credited on deferrals credited on or after April 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020.
Section 3.05.  Deferral of Stock Unit Awards.  Each Employee whom the Committee has selected to be eligible to defer a Stock Unit Award pursuant to this Article 3 may make an election to defer such Stock Unit Award which may be made to him or her for such Year.  Such Employee’s election for such Year shall be made prior to the beginning of the Year with respect to which the Stock Unit Award is granted (and as otherwise permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(a)) by filing a deferral election form with the Company.  Such deferral election form shall include the Employee’s written election as to time and form of distribution of such deferred amounts in accordance with Article 8.  An Employee also may make an election to defer a previously granted Stock Unit Award by filing a deferral election form with the Company on or before the date that is at least 12-months prior to the Vesting Date for the applicable Stock Unit Award and subject to a minimum deferral period of five (5) years (and as otherwise permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(a) or Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b), as applicable). Such deferral election form shall include the Employee’s written election as to time (subject to the five (5) year minimum deferral requirement) and form of distribution of such deferred amounts in accordance with Article 8. A Stock Unit Deferral Account shall be established for each Employee making such an election and Units in respect of such deferred amounts shall be credited to such accounts as provided in Section 3.06 below. 
Section 3.06.  Crediting of Cash and Stock Incentive Accounts.  The amount of an Employee’s deferred Cash Incentive Payment for any Year shall be credited to such Employee’s Cash Incentive Account as of the last day of the month in which the non-deferred portion of the Cash Incentive Payment was made, and each Employee may, in a manner compliant with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(o), elect one or more investment options selected by the Company, in its sole discretion, for t

7

he purpose of crediting or debiting additional amounts to such deferred amount (each such investment option, an “Eligible Investment Option”); provided, however, if such Employee elects to invest his or her deferred Cash Incentive Payment for any Year in Units, or fails to make a timely investment election (as prescribed by the Committee) with respect to such deferred Cash Incentive Payment, the portion of the Employee’s deferred Cash Incentive Payment so invested in Units or with respect to which a timely investment election was not made shall instead be converted to Units and credited to such Employee’s Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account as of the last business day of the month in which the Cash Incentive Payment was made. The amount of an Employee’s Matching Incentive Contributions for any Year shall be converted to Units and credited to such Employee’s Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account as of the last business day of the month in which the non-deferred portion of the applicable Cash Incentive Payment was made.  The amount of an Employee’s Stock Unit Deferrals for any Year shall be converted to Units and credited to such Employee’s Stock Unit Deferral Account as of the Vesting Date for the applicable Stock Units.
The number (computed to at least the second decimal place) of Units credited to an Employee’s Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account for any Year for Matching Incentive Contributions shall be determined by dividing the aggregate amount of the Cash Incentive Payment deferred to such Employee’s Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account for such Year under this Section 3.06 or the Matching Incentive Contributions for such Year, as applicable, by the per share reported closing price of Brink’s Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the final trading day of the month in which the Cash Incentive Payment was made.
Section 3.07.  Adjustments.  The Committee shall determine such equitable adjustments in the Units credited to each Stock Incentive Account as may be appropriate to reflect any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, reorganization, combination, or exchange of shares, split-up, split-off, spin-off, liquidation or other similar change in capitalization or any distribution to shareholders other than cash dividends.
Section 3.08.  Dividends and Distributions.  Whenever a cash dividend or any other distribution is paid with respect to shares of Brink’s Stock, the Stock Incentive Accounts of each Employee will be credited with an additional number of Units, equal to the number of shares of Brink’s Stock, including fractional shares (computed to at least the second decimal place), that could have been purchased had such dividend or other distribution been paid to the applicable Stock Incentive Account on the payment date for such dividend or distribution based on the number of Shares represented by Units in such Stock Incentive Account as of such date and assuming the amount of such dividend or value of such distribution had been used to acquire additional Units.  Such additional Units shall be deemed to be purchased: (1) at the per share reported closing price of Brink’s Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the payment date for the dividend or other distribution for Units credited on or after January 1, 2015; and (2) at the average of the high and low per share quoted s

8

ale prices of Brink’s Stock, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transaction Tape on the payment date for the dividend or other distribution for Units credited prior to January 1, 2015. The value of any distribution in property will be determined by the Committee.
Section 3.09.  Minimum Distribution.  Distributions shall be made in accordance with Article 8; provided, however, that the aggregate value of the Brink’s Stock distributed to an Employee (or his or her beneficiaries) attributable to deferrals of Cash Incentive Payments otherwise payable in respect to services rendered prior to January 1, 2007 (including dividends relating to such Units but not Matching Incentive Contributions) shall not be less than the aggregate amount of Cash Incentive Payments and dividends (credited to his or her Pre-2015 Stock Incentive Account pursuant to Section 3.07) in respect of which such Units were initially so credited.  The value of the Brink’s Stock, so distributed shall be considered equal to the per share reported closing price of Brink’s Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the final trading day immediately preceding the date of distribution.
ARTICLE 4     
DEFERRAL OF SALARY
Section 4.01.  Definitions.  Wherever used in the Program, the following term shall have the meaning indicated:

Section 4.03.  Deferral of Salary.  Each Employee who is eligible to defer Salary for any Year pursuant to this Article 4 may elect to defer an amount, expressed as a percentage, from 5% to 50% of his or her Salary for such Year; provided, however, that in the case of an Employee who first becomes eligible to participate in this portion of the Program after January 1 of such Year, only Salary earned (from 5% to 50%) after he or she files a deferral election with the Company may be deferred.  Such Employee’s election hereunder for any Year shall be made prior to the later of (a) the first day of such Year or (b) the expiration of the 30 day period following (and including) his or her initial date of becoming eligible to participate in the Plan, or as otherwise required under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(a), by filing a deferral election form with the Company.  Such deferral election form shall include the Employee’s written election as to time and form of distribution of such deferred amount in accordance with Article 8.  A Cash Incentive Account and/or Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account (which may be the same such accounts established pursuant to Articles 3 and/or 5) shall be established for each Employee making such election, and c

9

ash and/or Units, as applicable, in respect of such deferred amounts shall be credited to such accounts as provided in Section 4.05 below.
Section 4.04.  Matching Salary Contributions.  Each Employee who has been designated by the Committee as eligible to receive Matching Salary Contributions for a Year pursuant to Section 4.02 and who has deferred a percentage of his or her Salary for such Year pursuant to Section 4.03 shall have Matching Salary Contributions allocated to his or her Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account for such Year.  The amount of such Matching Salary Contributions for any Year shall be equal to 100% of the first 10% of his or her Salary that he or she has elected to defer for the Year pursuant to Section 4.03.  The dollar amount of each Employee’s Matching Salary Contributions deferred to his or her Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account shall be converted into Units and credited to such Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account as provided in Section 4.05 below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Matching Salary Contributions shall be credited on deferrals credited on or after April 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020.
Section 4.05.  Crediting of Cash and Stock Incentive Accounts.  The amount of an Employee’s deferred Salary for any Year shall be credited to such Employee’s Cash Incentive Account as of the last business day of the month in which such Salary was earned and payable, and each Employee may, in a manner compliant with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(o), elect one or more Eligible Investment Options for the purpose of crediting or debiting additional amounts to such deferred amount; provided, however, if such Employee elects to invest his or her deferred Salary for any Year in Units, or fails to make a timely investment election (as prescribed by the Committee) with respect to such deferred Salary, the portion of the Employee’s deferred Salary so invested in Units or with respect to which a timely investment election was not made shall instead be converted to Units and credited to such Employee’s Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account as of the last business day of the month in which Salary was earned and payable.  The amount of an Employee’s Matching Salary Contributions for any Year shall be converted to Units and shall be credited to such Employee’s Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account as of the last business day of the month in which the applicable Salary would have been payable.
The number (computed to at least the second decimal place) of Units credited to an Employee’s Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account for any month shall be determined by dividing the aggregate amount of the Salary deferred to such Employee’s Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account for such month under this Section 4.05 or the Matching Salary Contributions for such month, as applicable, by the per share reported closing price of Brink’s Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the final trading day of the month in which the applicable Salary would have been payable.
Section 4.06.  Adjustments.  The Committee shall determine such equitable adjustments in the Units credited to each Stock Incentive Account as may be appropriate to reflect any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, reorganization, combination, or exchange of shares, split up, split-off, s

10

pin-off, liquidation or other similar change in capitalization or any distribution to shareholders other than cash dividends.
Section 4.07.  Dividends and Distributions.  Whenever a cash dividend or any other distribution is paid with respect to shares of Brink’s Stock, the Stock Incentive Accounts of each Employee will be credited with an additional number of Units equal to the number of shares of Brink’s Stock, including fractional shares (computed to at least the second decimal place), that could have been purchased had such dividend or other distribution been paid to the applicable Stock Incentive Account on the payment date for such dividend or distribution based on the number of Shares represented by the Units in such Stock Incentive Account as of such date and assuming the amount of such dividend or value of such distribution had been used to acquire additional Units.  Such additional Units shall be deemed to be purchased: (1) at the per share reported closing price of Brink’s Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the payment date for the dividend or other distribution for Units credited on or after January 1, 2015; and (2) at the average of the high and low per share quoted sale prices of Brink’s Stock, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transaction Tape on the payment date for the dividend or other distribution for Units credited prior to January 1, 2015.  The value of any distribution in property will be determined by the Committee.
Section 4.08.  Minimum Distribution.  Distributions shall be made in accordance with Article 8; provided, however, the aggregate value of the Brink’s Stock distributed to an Employee (or his or her beneficiaries) attributable to the deferral of Salary otherwise payable for services rendered prior to January 1, 2007 (including dividends relating to such Units but not Matching Salary Contributions) shall not be less than the aggregate amount of Salary and dividends (credited to his or her Pre-2015 Stock Incentive Account pursuant to Section 4.07) in respect of which Units were initially so credited.  The value of the Brink’s Stock so distributed shall be considered equal to the per share reported closing price of Brink’s Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the final trading day immediately preceding the date of distribution.

Section 5.03.  Deferral of Compensation.  Each eligible Employee who is not permitted to defer the maximum amount of his or her Compensation that may be contributed under the Savings Plan for any Year as a result of limitations imposed by Code Sections 401(a)(17), 401(k)(3), 402(g) and/or 415 may elect to defer the excess of (a) the maximum percentage of his or her Compensation for such Year (without regard to any limitation on such amount imposed by Code Section 401(a)(17)) with respect to which he or she could have received a matching contribution under the Savings Plan (based on the rate at which matching contributions are credited under the Savings Plan as of January 1 of such Year) over (b) the amount actually deferred as a matched contribution under the Savings Plan for such Year.  In order to be permitted to defer any portion of his or her Compensation pursuant to this Section 5.03, the Employee must elect to defer the maximum amount permitted as a matched contribution for the Year under the Savings Plan.

Such deferral election form shall include the Employee’s written election as to time and form of distribution of such deferred amounts in accordance with Article 8.  A Cash Incentive Account and/or Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account (which may be the same such accounts established pursuant to Articles 3 and/or 4) shall be established for each Employee making such election, and cash and/or Units, as applicable, in respect of such deferred payment shall be credited to such accounts as provided in Section 5.05 below; provided, however, that in the event an Employee is not permitted to defer the maximum amount of his or her Compensation that may be contributed under the Savings Plan for any year as a result of the limitation imposed by Code Section 401(k)(3), such excess contribution to the Savings Plan  shall be distributed to the Employee, his or her Compensation paid after the date of the distribution shall be reduced by that amount and such amount shall be allocated to his or her accounts as soon as practicable following the first business day following the J

12

anuary 1 next following the Year for which the excess contribution was made under the Savings Plan and credited as provided in Section 5.05 below.
Section 5.04.  Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions.

The dollar amount of such Matching Contribution shall be allocated to the Employee’s Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account as soon as practicable following the January 1 next following the Year for which the matching contribution was made under the Savings Plan.  Units in respect of such contribution shall be credited to the Employee’s Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account as provided in Section 5.05 below.
Section 5.05.  Crediting of Cash and Stock Incentive Accounts.  The amount of an Employee’s deferred Compensation for any Year shall be credited to such Employee’s Cash Incentive Account as of the last business day of the month in which such Compensation was earned, and each Employee may, in a manner compliant with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(o), elect one or more Eligible Investment Options for the purpose of crediting or debiting additional amounts to such deferred amount; provided, however, if such Employee elects to invest his or her deferred Compensation for any Year in Units, or fails to make a timely investment election (as prescribed by the Committee) with respect to such deferred Compensation, the portion of the Employee’s deferred Compensation so invested in Units or with respect to which a timely investment election was not made shall instead be converted to Units and credited to such Employee’s Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account as of the last business day of the month in which the Compensation was earned.  The amount of an Employee’s Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contribution (representing amounts that cannot be c

13

ontributed to the Savings Plan in respect of employee contributions due to applicable limits on such employee contributions) for any Year shall be converted to Units and shall be credited to such Employee’s Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account as of the last business day of the month in which the matching contribution was made under the Savings Plan.
The number (computed to at least the second decimal place) of Units credited to an Employee’s Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account for any month shall be determined by dividing the aggregate amount of the Compensation deferred to such Employee’s Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account for such month under this Section 5.05 or the Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions for such month, as applicable, by the per share reported closing price of Brink’s Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the final trading day of the month in which the matching contribution was made under the Savings Plan.
Section 5.06.  Adjustments.  The Committee shall determine such equitable adjustments in the Units credited to each Stock Incentive Account as may be appropriate to reflect any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, reorganization, combination, or exchange of shares, split up, split-off, spin-off, liquidation or other similar change in capitalization or any distribution to shareholders other than cash dividends.
Section 5.07.  Dividends and Distributions.  Whenever a cash dividend or any other distribution is paid with respect to shares of Brink’s Stock, the Stock Incentive Accounts of each Employee will be credited with an additional number of Units equal to the number of shares of Brink’s Stock, including fractional shares (computed to at least the second decimal place), that could have been purchased had such dividend or other distribution been paid to the applicable Stock Incentive Account on the payment date for such dividend or distribution based on the number of Shares represented by the Units in such Stock Incentive Account as of such date and assuming that the amount of such dividend or value of such distribution had been used to acquire additional Units of the class giving rise to the dividend or other distribution.  Such additional Units shall be deemed to be purchased: (1) at the per share reported closing price of Brink’s Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the payment date for the dividend or other distribution for Units credited on or after January 1, 2015; and (2) at the average of the high and low per share quoted sale prices of Brink’s Stock, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transaction Tape on the payment date for the dividend or other distribution for Units credited prior to January 1, 2015.  The value of any distribution in property will be determined by the Committee.

ARTICLE 8     
DISTRIBUTIONS; CHANGES TO AND CANCELATIONS OF DEFERRAL ELECTIONS
Section 8.01.  In Service Distributions.  (a)  In connection with each deferral election made by an Employee under the Program, the Employee may (but s

16

hall not be required to) elect to receive distributions in cash and/or Brink’s Stock in respect of all or a portion of the amounts and/or Units covered by such deferral election (other than Units attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions and dividends related thereto) standing to the credit of such Employee’s Cash Incentive Account and Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account, as applicable, prior to such Employee’s Termination of Employment.  Such Employee may elect to receive (i) such cash amounts in a single-lump sum distribution on or in equal annual installments (at least two and not more than five) beginning on a nondiscretionary and objectively determinable calendar date (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)); provided, however, that if the aggregate value of the applicable portion of amounts credited to such Employee’s Cash Incentive Account at the time any such installment is due, is less than or equal to the lesser of $25,000 and the limitation calculated in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(v)(B), then such amounts shall be distributed to such Employee in a single-lump sum distribution in a manner that shall comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(v) and (ii) such Units in a single-lump sum distribution on a nondiscretionary and objectively determinable calendar date (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)).  The distribution election(s) described in this Section 8.01 shall be made no later than the corresponding deferral election.  After making such a distribution election, an Employee may subsequently change, at least 12 months prior to the first scheduled distribution under such Employee’s current election (such, date the “Initial Distribution”), his or her distribution election under this Section 8.01, but such Employee shall not be permitted to change his or her distribution election subsequent to the second such change.  Distributions pursuant to any such subsequent election shall not commence earlier than the fifth anniversary of the Initial Distribution and any such subsequent election shall not become effective prior to the 12-month anniversary of the date such subsequent election is made and shall otherwise comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b).  For the avoidance of doubt, any such subsequent election shall be void and without effect with respect to any payment that would otherwise occur during the 12-month period following the date that such subsequent election is made, and the Employee's election in effect at the time that the subsequent election is made shall instead be applicable with respect to any such payment; provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, a subsequent election shall be applicable with respect to installment payments that are payable after the 12-month period following the date that a such subsequent election is made provided that the Employee specifies that the subsequent election is applicable to each such installment payment.  If an Employee experiences a Disability or dies prior to receiving all such distributions elected pursuant to this Section 8.01, such amounts and/or Units that have not been distributed shall be treated in accordance with Section 8.02 below.
(a)      The amount of cash to be included in each installment pursuant to this Section 8.01, if applicable, shall be a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the applicable portion of such Employee’s remaining Cash Incentive Account balance subject to such distribution election (i.e., the original amounts deferred under such election together with the amounts credited or debited to such Cash Incentive Account, 

17

reduced by the amounts subject to any prior installments) and the denominator of which is equal to the number of remaining installments (including the current installment).
(b)      Any fractional Units distributed pursuant to this Section 8.01 shall be converted to cash based on the per share reported closing price of Brink’s Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the final trading day immediately preceding the date of distribution and shall be paid in cash.
(c)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Section 8.02, 8.03 or 8.05 becomes applicable (whether or not distribution has commenced) prior to the date of the first scheduled distribution of any deferred amounts and/or Units under this Section 8.01, such provision shall apply instead of this Section 8.01; provided, however, that this Section 8.01 shall continue to apply to any deferred amounts and/or Units after the commencement of distributions hereunder without regard to the potential subsequent application of Section 8.03 or 8.05.  Section 8.02 shall apply in all events notwithstanding this Section 8.01.
Section 8.02.  Certain Distributions on Death or Disability.  (a)  Each Employee shall receive a distribution in cash and/or Brink’s Stock in respect of all amounts and/or Units (other than Units attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions and dividends related thereto) standing to the credit of such Employee’s Cash Incentive Account and Stock Incentive Accounts, as applicable, as of the date of such Employee’s death or Disability (whether or not distribution shall have previously commenced pursuant to Section 8.01, 8.03 or 8.05), in a single-lump sum distribution as soon as practicable, but no later than 45 days, after the date of such Employee’s death or Disability, as applicable. 
(a)      Any fractional Units distributed pursuant to this Section 8.02 shall be converted to cash based on the per share reported closing price of Brink’s Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the final trading day immediately preceding the date of distribution and shall be paid in cash.  
(b)      In the event of an Employee’s death or Disability after the provisions of Section 8.01, 8.03 or 8.05 have become applicable (whether or not distribution has commenced), this Section 8.02 shall apply in lieu of such Sections with respect to any amounts and/or Units that remain standing to the credit of such Employee’s Incentive Accounts as provided in Section 8.02(a).
Section 8.03.  Certain Distributions on Termination of Employment.  (a)   In connection with each deferral under the Program made after July 10, 2014, each Employee shall elect to receive (i) distributions in cash in respect of all amounts covered by such deferral election standing to the credit of such Employee’s Cash Incentive Account as of the date of such Employee’s Termination of Employment, in a single-lump sum distribution on the first day that is more than six months after the date of the Employee’s Termination of Employment or in equal annual installments (at least two and n

18

ot more than five) commencing on the first day that is more than six months after the date of the Employee’s Termination of Employment, and with each subsequent installment being paid on each anniversary of such date that is more than six months after the date of the Employee’s Termination of Employment and (ii) distributions in Brink’s Stock in respect of all Units covered by such deferral election (other than Units attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Post-2014 Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions and dividends related thereto) standing to the credit of such Employee’s Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account as of the date of such Employee’s Termination of Employment, in a single-lump sum distribution on the first day that is more than six months after the date of the Employee’s Termination of Employment.  The distribution election described in this Section 8.03 shall be made no later than the corresponding deferral election.  An Employee may subsequently change, at least 12 months prior to his or her Termination of Employment, such distribution election, but such an Employee shall not be permitted to change his or her distribution election subsequent to the second such change.  Distributions pursuant to any such subsequent election shall not commence earlier than the fifth anniversary of when distributions would have commenced under such Employee’s current election and any such subsequent election shall not become effective prior to the 12-month anniversary of the date the subsequent election is made and shall otherwise comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b).  For the avoidance of doubt, any such subsequent election made during the 12-month period prior to an Employee's Termination of Employment shall be void and without effect with respect to any payment that would otherwise occur during the 12-month period following the date that such subsequent election is made, and the Employee's election in effect at the time that the subsequent election is made shall instead remain applicable with respect to any such payment; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, a subsequent election shall be applicable with respect to installment payments that are payable after the 12-month period following the date that a such subsequent election is made provided that the Employee specifies that the subsequent election is applicable to each such installment payment.  In the event that an Employee fails to clearly and unambiguously elect a form of distribution under this Section 8.03(a) with respect to all or a portion of any amounts standing to the credit of (or to be credited to) such Employee’s Incentive Accounts, such Employee will be deemed to have elected to receive a single-lump sum distribution as provided for pursuant to this Section 8.03(a) with respect thereto.  
(a)      In connection with each deferral election made prior to January 1, 2014 under the Program, for any Termination of Employment, each Employee shall receive distributions in Brink’s Stock in respect of all Units (other than Units attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions (other than Post-2014 Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions) and dividends related thereto) standing to the credit of such Employee’s Pre-2015 Stock Incentive Account in a single-lump sum distribution on the first day that is more than six months after the date of the Employee’s Termination of Employment or in accordance with any applicable distribution election 

19

made by such Employee covered by such applicable deferral election prior to January 1, 2014.  
(b)      The amount of cash to be included in each installment pursuant to this Section 8.03, if applicable, shall be a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the applicable portion of such Employee’s remaining applicable Cash Incentive Account balance subject to such distribution election (i.e., the original amounts deferred under such election together with the amounts credited or debited to such Cash Incentive Account, reduced by the amounts subject to any prior installments) and the denominator of which is equal to the number of remaining installments (including the current installment).
(c)      Any fractional Units distributed pursuant to this Section 8.03 shall be converted to cash based on the per share reported closing price of Brink’s Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the final trading day immediately preceding the date of distribution and shall be paid in cash.
(d)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.05 becomes applicable (whether or not distribution has commenced) prior to the applicable Employee’s Termination of Employment, the provisions of Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.05, as applicable, shall apply instead of this Section 8.03; provided, however, that this Section 8.03 shall continue to apply to any deferred amounts and/or Units after the occurrence of such Employee’s Termination of Employment without regard to the potential subsequent application of Section 8.01 or 8.05.  Section 8.02 shall apply in all events notwithstanding this Section 8.03.
Section 8.04.  Distributions Attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions and Matching Salary Contributions on Termination of Employment.  In the event of an Employee’s (a) death, (b) Retirement, (c) Disability or (d) Termination of Employment for any reason within three years following a Change in Control (other than a Termination of Employment by the Company for Cause), the Employee shall receive a distribution of Brink’s Stock in respect of each Unit standing to the credit of such Employee’s Stock Incentive Accounts attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Post-2014 Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions and dividends related thereto in the same manner as provided in Section 8.02 or 8.03, as applicable, for the distribution of the applicable deferred amount that gave rise to the Matching Incentive Contribution, Matching Salary Contribution, Post-2014 Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contribution or dividend related thereto that was converted into such Unit. 
In the event of a Termination of Employment for a reason not described in the preceding paragraph and that is not in connection with a Termination of Employment by the Company for Cause, such Employee shall be vested in the Units standing to the credit of such Employee in his or her Stock Incentive Accounts attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Post-2014 Matching 

20

Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions and dividends related thereto in accordance with the following schedule:

	100%

An Employee shall receive credit for one “month of participation” for each calendar month subsequent to the effective date of the Employee’s initial participation in the Program (without regard to whether such Employee participates in subsequent calendar years) through the date of such Employee’s Termination of Employment; provided, however, if subsequent to an Employee’s Termination of Employment for any reason, such former Employee again becomes eligible to participate in the Program, any prior credits for “months of participation” shall be disregarded.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Brink’s Stock in respect of each vested Unit standing to the credit of such Employee attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions and dividends related thereto shall be distributed as provided in Section 8.02 or 8.03, as applicable, and any remaining unvested Units shall be forfeited; provided further, that any such distribution pursuant to Section 8.03 shall be pursuant to an election made by such Employee as provided for under Section 8.03 in respect of Units deferred under the Program.  For the avoidance of doubt, an Employee shall always be vested in any Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions that are not Post-2014 Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions.  
Section 8.05.  Distribution Following a Change in Control.  (a)  In the event of a 409A Change in Control, each Employee shall receive a single-lump sum distribution in cash and/or Brink’s Stock (or stock of the successor to the Company, if any) in respect of all amounts and/or Units (other than Units attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Post-2014 Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions, Stock Unit Deferrals and dividends related thereto) standing to the credit of such Employee’s Cash Incentive Account and Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account, as applicable, on the earlier of (i) the date that is 15 months from the 409A Change in Control and (ii) the date (the “Specified Distribution Date”) specified in any applicable deferral election of the Employee, but only to the extent that such Specified Distribution Date is within 12 months from the 409A Change in Control; provided, however, such Employee may, with respect to each deferral election under the Program made on or after July 10, 2014, elect prior to the earlier of (A) the date that is three months after the occurrence of the 409A Change in Control and (B) the date that is at least 12 months prior to the Specified Distribution Date d

esignated by the Employee in any applicable deferral election, to receive the amounts and/or Units subject to such deferral election in a single-lump sum distribution or, in the case of amounts subject to such deferral elections only, in equal annual installments (at least two and not more than five) commencing no earlier than the fifth anniversary of the date such amounts and/or Units would have been distributed absent such election, and each such distribution election shall otherwise comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b).  
(a)      Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.03 becomes applicable (whether or not distribution has commenced) prior to a 409A Change in Control, the provisions of Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.03, as applicable, shall apply instead of this Section 8.05; provided, however, that this Section 8.05 shall continue to apply to any deferred amounts and/or Units after the occurrence of a 409A Change in Control without regard to the potential subsequent application of Section 8.01 or 8.03.  Section 8.02 shall apply in all events notwithstanding this Section 8.05.
Section 8.06.  Unforeseeable Emergencies.  An Employee who experiences an Unforeseeable Emergency may petition the Company to receive a partial or full payout from his or her Cash Incentive Account and/or Stock Incentive Accounts to the extent permitted by Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(3).  Such payout, if any, shall not exceed the amount necessary to satisfy the Unforeseeable Emergency, plus amounts necessary to pay Federal, state, local or foreign income taxes or penalties reasonably anticipated as a result of such distribution, but after taking into account any additional compensation available by canceling deferral elections as permitted under the Program or any other non-qualified deferred compensation plan in which the Employee participates.  An Employee shall not be eligible to receive a payout according to this Section 8.06 to the extent that such a payout would not be permitted by Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(3) or the Unforeseeable Emergency is or may be relieved (a) through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise, (b) by liquidation of the Employee’s assets, to the extent the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship or (c) by cessation of deferrals under the Program.
Section 8.07.  Changes to and Cancelations of Deferral Elections.  Any election to defer under the Program shall be irrevocable, in the case of (a) amounts under the Program for any Year, (i) on and after the first day of such Year or (ii) in the case of an election made by a newly hired Employee for his or her initial Year of employment, after the date such an election is made and (b) Cash Performance Payments under the Program for any Performance Measurement Period, after the last date for making such an election, as specified in the second or third sentence of Section 6.03, above, as applicable (it being understood that an Employee may only change any such election prior to its becoming irrevocable in accordance with procedures established by the Company).  After such election has become irrevocable, an Employee may only subsequently change such election consistent with this Article 8 a

22

nd Code Section 409A but may, in compliance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(viii), cancel any such election.
Section 8.08.  Termination of Employment by the Company for Cause.  In the event of a Termination of Employment by the Company for Cause, the Employee shall forfeit all of the Units standing to the credit of the Employee’s Stock Incentive Accounts attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Post-2014 Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions and dividends related thereto.
Section 8.09.  Installment Payments.  For purposes of Section 409A, each installment payment provided for under this Article 8 will be deemed to be a separate payment as permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii).
Section 8.10.  Distribution Timing.  Distributions made pursuant to this Article 8 will be made on the designated payment date or as soon as administratively practicable following such date. 
ARTICLE 9     
DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARY
An Employee may designate in a written election filed with the Company a beneficiary or beneficiaries (which may be an entity other than a natural person) to receive all distributions and payments under the Program after the Employee’s death.  Any such designation may be revoked, and a new election may be made, at any time and from time to time, by the Employee without the consent of any beneficiary.  If the Employee designates more than one beneficiary, any distributions and payments to such beneficiaries shall be made in equal percentages unless the Employee has designated otherwise, in which case the distributions and payments shall be made in the percentages designated by the Employee.  If no beneficiary has been named by the Employee or no beneficiary survives the Employee, the remaining amounts and/or Shares (including fractional Shares) in the Employee’s Cash Incentive Account and/or Stock Incentive Accounts shall be distributed or paid in a single lump-sum sum to the Employee’s estate.  All distributions from an Employee’s Stock Incentive Accounts shall be made in Shares except that fractional Shares shall be paid in cash. 
ARTICLE 10     
MISCELLANEOUS
Section 10.01.  Nontransferability of Benefits.  Except as provided in Article 9, amounts and/or Units credited to a Cash Incentive Account and/or Stock Incentive Account shall not be transferable by an Employee or former Employee (or his or her beneficiaries) other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a domestic relations order.  No Employee, no person claiming through such Employee, nor any other person shall have any right or interest under the Program, or in its continuance, in the payment of any amount or distribution of any amounts and/or S

23

hares under the Program, unless and until all the provisions of the Program, any determination made by the Committee thereunder, and any restrictions and limitations on the payment itself have been fully complied with.  Except as provided in this Section 10.01, no rights under the Program, contingent or otherwise, shall be transferable, assignable or subject to any pledge or encumbrance of any nature, nor shall the Company or any of its Subsidiaries be obligated, except as otherwise required by law, to recognize or give effect to any such transfer, assignment, pledge or encumbrance.
Section 10.02.  Notices.  The Company may require all elections contemplated by the Program to be made on forms provided by it.  All notices, elections and other communications pursuant to the Program shall be effective when received by the Company either, in the Company’s sole discretion, via electronic delivery through a Company email system or by reference to a location on a Company intranet or secure internet site to which the Employee has access or in writing delivered to the following address:
The Brink’s Company 
1801 Bayberry Court 
P. O. Box 18100 
Richmond, VA 23226-8100 
 
Attention of Chief Human Resources Officer
Section 10.03.  Limitation on Rights of Employee.  Nothing in the Program shall be deemed to create, on the part of any Employee, beneficiary or other person, (a) any interest of any kind in the assets of the Company or (b) any trust or fiduciary relationship in relation to the Company.  The right of an Employee to receive any amounts and/or Shares shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.
Section 10.04.  No Contract of Employment.  The benefits provided under the Program for an Employee shall be in addition to, and in no way preclude, other forms of compensation to or in respect of such Employee.  However, the selection of any Employee for participation in the Program shall not give such Employee any right to be retained in the employ of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any period.  The right of the Company and of each such Subsidiary to terminate the employment of any Employee for any reason or at any time is specifically reserved.  In addition, designation of an Employee as a participant for one Year does not create any right to participation or expectation that the Committee will designate the Employee as a participant in any subsequent Year.
Section 10.05.  Withholding.  All distributions pursuant to the Program shall be subject to withholding in respect of income and other taxes required by law to be withheld.  The Company shall establish appropriate procedures to ensure payment or withholding of such taxes.  Such procedures may include arrangements for payment or withholding of taxes by retaining Shares otherwise issuable in accordance with the p

24

rovisions of the Program or by accepting already owned Shares, and by applying the fair market value of such Shares to the withholding taxes payable.  The value of the Brink’s Stock distributed to an Employee pursuant to the Program shall, for purposes of income taxes and all other applicable taxes, be considered equal to the per share reported closing price of Brink’s Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the final trading day immediately preceding the date of distribution.
Section 10.06.  Amendment and Termination.  The Committee may from time to time amend any of the provisions of the Program, or may at any time terminate the Program.  No amendment or termination shall adversely affect any Units (or distributions in respect thereof) which shall theretofore have been credited to any Employee’s Cash Incentive Account and/or Stock Incentive Accounts.  On the termination of the Program, distributions from an Employee’s Cash Incentive Account and/or Stock Incentive Accounts shall be made in compliance with Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulations issued thereunder.

 RECITALS 

WHEREAS, the Debtors, the Backstop Parties and certain other Persons have entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement, dated as of
May 14, 2020 (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified from time to time, together with any schedules, exhibits and annexes thereto, the “RSA”), which provides for the restructuring of the
Debtors’ capital structure and financial obligations pursuant to a plan of reorganization in the form attached as Exhibit B to the RSA (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, together with the Plan
Supplement, the “Plan”); 
 WHEREAS, on May 14, 2020 (the “Petition Date”), following the
execution and delivery of the RSA by the parties thereto, the Debtors commenced voluntary reorganization cases (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code,
11 U.S.C. §§ 101 – 1532 (as amended, the “Bankruptcy Code”), in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (the “Bankruptcy Court”); 

WHEREAS, pursuant to (and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in) the Plan, the Debtors are conducting a rights offering, on
the terms set forth in the Plan, the Rights Offering Procedures and this Agreement (the “Rights Offering”), by distributing Subscription Rights to each Rights Offering Participant to purchase shares of New Common Stock on the
Effective Date, which shall consist of (a) shares of New Common Stock offered pro rata (based on the respective Pro Rata Shares of each of the Rights Offering Participants) to all Rights Offering Participants (the “Base Rights
Offering Securities”) at an aggregate purchase price of up to $42.5 million (the “Base Rights Offering Amount”), and (b) shares of New Common Stock offered pro rata (based on the respective Priority
Backstop Commitment Percentages of each of the Priority Backstop Parties) to all Priority Backstop Parties (the “Priority Rights Offering Securities” and, together with the Base Rights Offering Securities, the “Rights
Offering Securities”) at an aggregate purchase price of up to $42.5 million (the “Priority Rights Offering Amount” and, together with the Base Rights Offering Amount, the “Rights Offering
Amount”); 

  
 -1- 

 WHEREAS, the final Rights Offering Amount shall be reasonably determined by the
Debtors and must be reasonably acceptable to the Requisite Backstop Parties (but shall in no event be less than the amount set forth in the definition of “Rights Offering Amount” set forth in the Plan) and if the final Rights Offering
Amount is less than $85.0 million, then the Base Rights Offering Amount and the Priority Rights Offering Amount shall each be reduced by fifty percent (50.0%) of the difference between $85.0 million and such final Rights Offering Amount;
and 
 WHEREAS, in order to facilitate the Rights Offering, pursuant to this Agreement, and subject to the terms, conditions and
limitations set forth herein, and in reliance on the representations and warranties set forth herein, (i) each of the Backstop Parties, severally and not jointly, has agreed to provide the Debtors with the right to require such Backstop Party
to purchase, and upon exercise of such right by the Debtors, each Backstop Party has agreed to purchase from UP Energy, on the Effective Date, such Backstop Party’s Backstop Commitment Percentage of the Base Rights Offering Securities that have
not been subscribed for by the Rights Offering Participants by the Subscription Expiration Deadline (including the Unallocated Securities) (the “Unsubscribed Securities”), and (ii) each of the Priority Backstop Parties,
severally and not jointly, has agreed to provide the Debtors with the right to require such Priority Backstop Party to purchase, and upon exercise of such right by the Debtors, each Priority Backstop Party has agreed to purchase from UP Energy, on
the Effective Date, such Priority Backstop Party’s Priority Backstop Commitment Percentage of all Priority Rights Offering Securities; 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and the representations, warranties and covenants set forth herein, and other good
and valuable consideration, the Debtors and the Backstop Parties hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Rights Offering and Backstop
Commitments. 
 1.1 The Rights Offering. 

(a) The Debtors shall conduct and consummate the Rights Offering on the terms, subject to the conditions and in accordance with Rights
Offering Procedures set forth in Exhibit A hereto (as such procedures may be amended or supplemented from time to time with the prior written consent of the Requisite Backstop Parties, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or
conditioned, the “Rights Offering Procedures”) and otherwise on the applicable terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and consistent with the Plan and the RSA. The Debtors and the Priority Backstop Parties shall cooperate
and work in good faith in determining the final Rights Offering Amount and the Debtors shall provide the Priority Backstop Parties with all materials and information reasonably requested by any of the Priority Backstop Parties or counsel to the
Backstop Parties identified in Section 12(a) hereof in connection with such determination, including the aggregate Exit RBL Lender Cash Election Amount for all Allowed First Lien RBL Claims and any investments or
expenditures that are proposed to be financed or funded (in whole or in part) with the proceeds from the Rights Offering and the sale of Backstop Securities pursuant to this Agreement. 

(b) The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Rights Offering Subscription Agent to deliver, on behalf of the Company,
to each of the 

  
 -2- 

 
Backstop Parties, by e-mail, a funding notice (the “Backstop Funding Notice”) that sets forth (i) if there are Unsubscribed
Securities, a true and accurate calculation of the aggregate Per Share Purchase Price therefor, or (ii) if there are no Unsubscribed Securities, the fact that there are no Unsubscribed Securities (it being understood that the Backstop Base
Commitments shall terminate at the Closing). The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Rights Offering Subscription Agent to deliver the Backstop Funding Notice to each of the Backstop Parties promptly after the later of
(A) the date on which the final Rights Offering Amount has been determined and (B) the funding deadline for Rights Offering Participants who are not Backstop Parties as set forth in the Rights Offering Procedures, but in no event shall
such delivery be made more than five (5) Business Days after such later date. 
 1.2 Backstop Commitments. 

(a) On the terms, subject to the conditions (including the entry of the Confirmation Order by the Bankruptcy Court and the Confirmation Order
becoming a Final Order) and limitations, and in reliance on the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement, each of the Backstop Parties hereby, severally and not jointly, grants the Debtors the right to require such Backstop Party,
and upon exercise of such right by the Debtors, each Backstop Party agrees, to purchase from UP Energy, on the Effective Date, at the aggregate Per Share Purchase Price therefor, its Backstop Commitment Percentage of all Unsubscribed Securities. The
Backstop Base Commitments of the Backstop Parties are several, not joint, obligations of the Backstop Parties, such that no Backstop Party shall be liable or otherwise responsible for the Backstop Base Commitment of any other Backstop Party. The
Unsubscribed Securities that each of the Backstop Parties is required to purchase pursuant to this Section 1.2(a) are referred to herein as such Backstop Party’s “Backstop Base Commitment Securities”.

 (b) On the terms, subject to the conditions (including the entry of the Confirmation Order by the Bankruptcy Court and the Confirmation
Order becoming a Final Order) and limitations, and in reliance on the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement, each of the Priority Backstop Parties hereby, severally and not jointly, grants the Debtors the right to require such
Priority Backstop Party, and upon exercise of such right by the Debtors, each Priority Backstop Party agrees, to purchase from UP Energy, on the Effective Date, at the aggregate Per Share Purchase Price therefor, its Priority Backstop Commitment
Percentage of all Priority Rights Offering Securities. The Backstop Priority Commitments of the Priority Backstop Parties are several, not joint, obligations of the Priority Backstop Parties, such that no Priority Backstop Party shall be liable or
otherwise responsible for the Backstop Priority Commitment of any other Priority Backstop Party. The Priority Rights Offering Securities that each of the Priority Backstop Parties is required to purchase pursuant to this
Section 1.2(b) are referred to herein as such Priority Backstop Party’s “Backstop Priority Commitment Securities”. 

(c) On or prior to the date that is three (3) Business Days prior to the anticipated Effective Date (but in no event shall such date be
less than five (5) Business Days after the date on which the Backstop Funding Notice is delivered to the Backstop Parties) (the “Deposit Deadline”), each Backstop Party shall, severally and not jointly, deposit into an account
(the “Deposit Account”) with, at the option of the Requisite Backstop Parties, the Rights Offering Subscription Agent or a bank or trust company approved by the Requisite Backstop Parties, by wire transfer of immediately available
funds, an amount equal to the aggregate Per 

  
 -3- 

 
Share Purchase Price for such Backstop Party’s Backstop Commitment Securities (such Backstop Party’s “Aggregate Purchase Price”). If the Closing has not occurred on or
prior to the later of (A) the fifth Business Day following the Deposit Deadline and (B) if a Funding Default shall have occurred, the fifth Business Day following the date on which the procedures described in
Section 1.2(b) hereof shall have been completed, any funds deposited in the Deposit Account by a Backstop Party will be returned by the Debtors to an account designated by such Backstop Party upon written request of such
Backstop Party. 
 (d) In the event that a Backstop Party defaults (a “Funding Default”) on its obligation to deposit its
Aggregate Purchase Price in the Deposit Account by the Deposit Deadline pursuant to Section 1.2(c) hereof (each such Backstop Party, a “Defaulting Backstop Party”), then each applicable Non-Defaulting Backstop Party shall have the right (the “Default Purchase Right”), but not the obligation, to elect to commit to purchase from UP Energy, at the aggregate Per Share Purchase Price
therefor, up to such Non-Defaulting Backstop Party’s Adjusted Commitment Percentage of all applicable Backstop Commitment Securities required to be purchased by the Defaulting Backstop Party pursuant to
Section 1.2(a) and/or Section 1.2(b) but which such Defaulting Backstop Party did not make the required deposit in accordance with Section 1.2(c). Within two
(2) Business Days after a Funding Default, the Company shall send a written notice (the “Default Notice”) to each applicable Non-Defaulting Backstop Party specifying (i) the
aggregate Per Share Purchase Price for all applicable Backstop Commitment Securities subject to such Funding Default (collectively, the “Default Securities”) and (ii) the maximum aggregate Per Share Purchase Price for Default
Securities such Non-Defaulting Backstop Party may elect to commit to purchase (determined in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 1.2(d)). Each applicable Non-Defaulting Backstop Party will have three (3) Business Days after receipt of the Default Notice to elect to exercise its Default Purchase Right by notifying the Company in writing of its election and
specifying the aggregate Per Share Purchase Price for Default Securities that it is committing to purchase (up to the maximum aggregate Per Share Purchase Price for Default Securities such Non-Defaulting
Backstop Party is permitted to commit to purchase pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 1.2(d)). If any Non-Defaulting Backstop Party elects to commit to purchase less than
the maximum amount of Default Securities such Non-Defaulting Backstop Party is permitted to commit to purchase pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 1.2(d) or if any Non-Defaulting Backstop Party does not elect to commit to purchase any Default Securities within the 3-Business Day period referred to in the immediately preceding sentence, then the Default Securities that such Non-Defaulting Backstop Party does not commit to purchase may be purchased by applicable Non-Defaulting Backstop Parties that exercised in full their respective Default
Purchase Rights (the right to make such purchase to be made on a pro rata basis based on the respective applicable Adjusted Commitment Percentages of such Non-Defaulting Backstop Parties, and the
process for providing commitments for such purchases to be made by utilizing substantially the same procedures set forth in the two immediately preceding sentences). To the extent the procedure described in the preceding sentence does not result in
commitments by applicable Non-Defaulting Backstop Parties for all applicable Default Securities, such procedure shall be repeated until either (A) applicable
Non-Defaulting Backstop Parties have elected to commit to purchase all of the applicable unsubscribed Default Securities or (B) applicable Non-Defaulting Backstop
Parties have ceased providing elections to commit to purchase applicable unsubscribed Default Securities and the applicable Non-Defaulting Backstop Parties have not provided elections to commit to purchase all
applicable Default Securities. 

  
 -4- 

 (e) If Non-Defaulting Backstop Parties elect to
commit to purchase all (but not less than all) Default Securities in accordance with Section 1.2(d), each Non-Defaulting Backstop Party that has elected to commit to purchase Default
Securities hereby agrees, severally and not jointly, to deposit into the Deposit Account, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount equal to the aggregate Per Share Purchase Price for such Default Securities no later than two
(2) Business Days after the day that the Company has notified the Non-Defaulting Backstop Parties that Non-Defaulting Backstop Parties have elected to commit to
purchase all (but not less than all) Default Securities. If Non-Defaulting Backstop Parties do not elect to commit to purchase all Default Securities in accordance with
Section 1.2(d), then no Non-Defaulting Backstop Party shall be required to deposit in the Deposit Account any portion of the Per Share Purchase Price for the Default Securities which
such Non-Defaulting Backstop Party may have elected to commit to purchase pursuant to Section 1.2(d) unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Requisite Backstop Parties and then
only on the terms agreed to in writing by the Requisite Backstop Parties. The Default Securities which a Backstop Party elects to purchase pursuant to Section 1.2(d), if any, together with such Backstop Party’s
Backstop Base Commitment Securities and Put Option Securities, shall be referred to herein as such Backstop Party’s “Backstop Securities”. 

(f) Fractional Backstop Securities or fractional Backstop Priority Commitment Securities shall not be issued. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, no Backstop Party shall be required or have the right to purchase or be issued any fractional Backstop Securities or fractional Backstop Priority Commitment Securities. If a Backstop Party would otherwise be required or have the
right to purchase or be issued Backstop Securities or Backstop Priority Commitment Securities that includes a fraction of a share of New Common Stock, then such number of Backstop Securities or Backstop Priority Commitment Securities shall be
rounded upward or downward to the nearest whole share of New Common Stock (with .5 of a share of New Common Stock being rounded up), and no Backstop Party shall receive any payment or other distribution in respect of any fraction of a share of New
Common Stock such Backstop Party does not receive as a result of such a rounding down. For purposes of determining whether a Backstop Party would otherwise receive a fraction of a share of New Common Stock, the total number of Rights Offering
Securities (including Backstop Priority Commitment Securities) and Backstop Securities to be issued to such Backstop Party pursuant to the Rights Offering and this Agreement shall be aggregated. 

1.3 Put Option Premium. 

(a) The Debtors and the Backstop Parties hereby acknowledge that, in consideration for the Debtors’ right to call the Backstop Base
Commitments of the Backstop Parties to purchase the Backstop Base Commitment Securities of the Backstop Parties pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Debtors shall be required to pay to the Backstop Parties a premium in an aggregate amount
equal to $3,187,500 (the “Put Option Base Premium”), which Put Option Base Premium shall be paid to the Backstop Parties on a pro rata basis based upon their respective Put Option Base Premium Percentages. The Debtors shall
be obligated to pay the Put Option Base Premium on the Effective Date and such payment shall be satisfied, in lieu of any cash payment, by UP Energy contributing to Ultra Resources, and Ultra Resources transferring to the Backstop Parties (or their
designees) immediately after the receipt thereof from UP Energy, an additional number of shares of New Common Stock (the “Put Option Base  

  
 -5- 

 
Securities”) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) $3,187,500 by (ii) the Per Share Purchase Price, on a pro rata basis based upon their respective Put
Option Base Premium Percentages; provided, however, that if the Closing does not occur, the Debtors shall be required to pay the Put Option Base Premium to the Backstop Parties in cash to the extent provided in
Section 8(e). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) no Defaulting Backstop Party shall be entitled to receive any portion of the Put Option Base Premium, (B) any Non-Defaulting
Backstop Party that purchases Default Securities constituting Backstop Base Commitment Securities of a Defaulting Backstop Party shall be entitled to receive an additional portion of the Put Option Base Premium equal to the product of (x) the
amount of the Put Option Base Premium that would be payable to such Defaulting Backstop Party if such Defaulting Backstop Party had not committed a Funding Default and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Default Securities
constituting Backstop Base Commitment Securities of such Defaulting Backstop Party which such Non-Defaulting Backstop Party purchases and the denominator of which is the total number of Default Securities
constituting Backstop Base Commitment Securities of such Defaulting Backstop Party, and (C) if a Specified Backstop Party makes an Exit Term Loan Election in respect of Backstop Base Commitment Securities (including any Default Securities that
constitute Backstop Base Commitment Securities) and the Closing occurs, then the portion of the Put Option Base Premium otherwise payable to such Specified Backstop Party in respect of such Backstop Base Commitment Securities (including any Default
Securities that constitute Backstop Base Commitment Securities) shall be payable in the form of Exit Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to such portion of the Put Option Base Premium. 

(b) The Debtors and the Backstop Parties hereby acknowledge that, in consideration for the Debtors’ right to call the Backstop Priority
Commitments of the Priority Backstop Parties to purchase Backstop Priority Commitment Securities in the Rights Offering, the Debtors shall be required to pay to the Priority Backstop Parties a premium in an aggregate amount equal to $3,187,500 (the
“Put Option Priority Premium”), which Put Option Priority Premium shall be paid to the Priority Backstop Parties on a pro rata basis based upon their respective Priority Backstop Commitment Percentages. The Debtors shall be
obligated to pay the Put Option Priority Premium on the Effective Date and such payment shall be satisfied, in lieu of any cash payment, by UP Energy contributing to Ultra Resources, and Ultra Resources transferring to the Priority Backstop Parties
(or their designees) immediately after the receipt thereof from UP Energy, an additional number of shares of New Common Stock (the “Put Option Priority Securities”) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) $3,187,500 by
(ii) the Per Share Purchase Price, on a pro rata basis based upon their respective Priority Backstop Commitment Percentages; provided, however, that if the Closing does not occur, the Debtors shall be required to pay the
Put Option Priority Premium to the Priority Backstop Parties in cash to the extent provided in Section 8(e). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) no Defaulting Backstop Party shall be entitled to receive any portion of
the Put Option Priority Premium, (B) any Non-Defaulting Backstop Party that purchases Default Securities constituting Backstop Priority Commitment Securities of a Defaulting Backstop Party shall be
entitled to receive an additional portion of the Put Option Priority Premium equal to the product of (x) the amount of the Put Option Priority Premium that would be payable to such Defaulting Backstop Party if such Defaulting Backstop Party had
not committed a Funding Default and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Default Securities constituting Backstop Priority Commitment Securities of such Defaulting Backstop Party which such
Non-Defaulting Backstop Party purchases and the denominator of which is the total number of Default Securities 

  
 -6- 

 
constituting Backstop Priority Commitment Securities of such Defaulting Backstop Party, and (C) if a Specified Backstop Party makes an Exit Term Loan Election in respect of Backstop Priority
Commitment Securities (including any Default Securities that constitute Backstop Priority Commitment Securities) and the Closing occurs, then the portion of the Put Option Priority Premium otherwise payable to such Specified Backstop Party in
respect of such Backstop Priority Commitment Securities (including any Default Securities that constitute Backstop Priority Commitment Securities) shall be payable in the form of Exit Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to such portion
of the Put Option Priority Premium. 
 (c) The Debtors hereby further acknowledge and agree that the Put Option Premium (including the
commitment premium with respect to any Exit Term Loans) (i) shall be fully earned as of the Execution Date, (ii) shall not be refundable under any circumstance or creditable against any other amount paid or to be paid in connection with
this Agreement or any of the Contemplated Transactions or otherwise, (iii) shall be paid without setoff or recoupment and shall not be subject to defense or offset on account of any claim, defense or counterclaim, (iv) except to the extent
required under the Code or other applicable Law, shall be paid free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future applicable Taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto
(collectively, “Deductions or Withholdings”), and to the extent of any Deductions or Withholdings, the Debtors shall pay additional amounts such that the total amount received by each Backstop Party shall equal the amount that would
have been received absent any such Deductions or Withholdings, and (v) shall be treated for U.S. federal income Tax purposes as a premium (and, as applicable, an adjustment to tax basis or adjustment to issue price) for an option to put the
Backstop Base Commitment Securities of the Backstop Parties to the Backstop Parties and the Backstop Priority Commitment Securities of the Priority Backstop Parties to the Priority Backstop Parties, as applicable, and none of the Debtors or the
Backstop Parties shall take any position or action inconsistent with such treatment and/or characterization, except as otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). 
 1.4 Exit Term Loans. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, each of the Specified Backstop Parties shall be entitled to elect (an “Exit Term Loan Election”), in lieu of purchasing Backstop Commitment Securities that it is otherwise required to purchase pursuant to this
Agreement and/or in lieu of purchasing Default Securities which such Specified Backstop Party elects to commit to purchase pursuant to this Agreement, to make Exit Term Loans to Ultra Resources on the Effective Date in an aggregate original
principal amount (excluding any original issue discount and any commitment premium) up to the aggregate Per Share Purchase Price that such Specified Backstop Party is required to pay, but not to exceed the Exit Term Loan Cap Amount for such
Specified Backstop Party. A Specified Backstop Party may make an Exit Term Loan Election by delivering written notice thereof to the Company not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the anticipated Effective Date (or, in the case an Exit Term
Loan Election is made with respect to the purchase of Default Securities, at the time such Specified Backstop Party elects to commit to purchase Default Securities pursuant to Section 1.2(d)), which notice shall specify the aggregate original
principal amount of Exit Term Loans (excluding any original issue discount and any commitment premium) that such Specified Backstop Party is electing to make. If a Specified Backstop Party makes an Exit Term Loan Election, such Specified Backstop
Party shall be required to deposit the aggregate original 

  
 -7- 

 
principal amount of the applicable Exit Term Loans (excluding any original issue discount and any commitment premium) into the Deposit Account no later than the time that such Specified Backstop
Party would have been required to deposit the Per Share Purchase Price for Backstop Commitment Securities or Default Securities that such Specified Backstop Party would be required to pay if such Specified Backstop Party did not make such Exit Term
Loan Election. Any amounts deposited by a Specified Backstop Party in the Deposit Account in respect of Exit Term Loans shall reduce, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the
aggregate Per Share Purchase Price for Backstop Commitment Securities and Default Securities that such Specified Backstop Party would have been required to pay if such Specified Backstop Party did not make an Exit Term Loan Election, and the
Backstop Commitment Securities and Default Securities that a Specified Backstop Party would have otherwise received if such Specified Backstop Party had paid such aggregate Per Share Purchase Price will not be issued. Any reference to the term
“Rights Offering Securities”, “Backstop Securities”, “Backstop Base Commitment Securities”, “Backstop Priority Commitment Securities”, “Put Option Securities” or “Default Securities” used
in this Agreement shall be deemed to include Exit Term Loans and/or Exit Warrants to the extent any Specified Backstop Party makes an Exit Term Loan Election and such inclusion is applicable. 

2. Closing; Certain Expenses and Payments. 

2.1 Closing. 

(a) The closing of the purchase, sale and/or issuance of Backstop Securities and Backstop Priority Commitment Securities hereunder (the
“Closing”) will occur at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Effective Date. At the Closing, UP Energy shall deliver (e-mail delivery being sufficient) to each Backstop Party
(i) notification of the number of shares of New Common Stock to be distributed to each Backstop Party as of the Effective Date; provided, however, that promptly following the Closing (but in no event later than three
(3) Business Days following the Effective Date), UP Energy shall deliver (e-mail delivery being sufficient) to each Backstop Party a statement prepared by UP Energy or any transfer agent for the New
Common Stock reflecting the book-entry position of the Backstop Securities and the Rights Offering Securities (including the Backstop Priority Commitment Securities) acquired by such Backstop Party as of the Effective Date (it being understood and
agreed that each Backstop Party shall be the record owner of such Backstop Securities and Rights Offering Securities on the Effective Date notwithstanding such delivery being made by UP Energy after the Effective Date); provided,
further, that if a Specified Backstop Party makes an Exit Term Loan Election, then UP Energy and Ultra Resources shall deliver to such Specified Backstop Party at the Closing, at the request of such Specified Backstop Party at least one
(1) Business Day prior to the Effective Date, (x) one or more promissory notes issued by Ultra Resources payable to such Specified Backstop Party (or its designee) in the aggregate original principal amount specified in the notice of the
Exit Term Loan Election delivered by such Specified Backstop Party (plus any original issue discount and commitment premium applicable to such Exit Term Loans), duly executed by Ultra Resources, and (y) one or more certificates for Exit
Warrants that are issued in connection with such Exit Term Loans, duly executed by UP Energy, and (ii) such certificates, counterparts to agreements, documents or instruments required to be delivered by the Debtors to such Backstop Party
pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof. The agreements, instruments, certificates and other documents to be delivered on the Effective Date by or on behalf of the Debtors will be

 (b) All Backstop Securities and Rights Offering Securities
(including Backstop Priority Commitment Securities) will be delivered free and clear of any and all Encumbrances (other than Encumbrances pursuant to the New Organizational Documents of UP Energy and pursuant to applicable securities Laws) with any
and all issue, stamp, transfer or similar Taxes or duties payable in connection with such delivery duly paid by the Debtors. 
 (c) Anything
in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding (but without limiting the provisions of Section 13.1 hereof), any Backstop Party, in its sole discretion, may designate that some or all of the Backstop Securities and/or
Backstop Priority Commitment Securities be issued in the name of, and delivered to, one or more of its Affiliates that (in any such case) is an Accredited Investor. Any such designation shall be made by a Backstop Party by delivering written notice
thereof to the Company no less than three (3) Business Days prior to the Effective Date, which notice shall (i) specify the name of each such Affiliate, (ii) specify the number of Backstop Securities and/or Backstop Priority
Commitment Securities that should be issued or delivered to each such Affiliate (or the applicable aggregate Per Share Purchase Price and/or portion of the Put Option Premium, as applicable, for such Backstop Securities and/or Backstop Priority
Commitment Securities), and (iii) contain a certification from each such Affiliate of the accuracy of the representations and warranties made by each Backstop Party in Section 4 hereof as applied to such Affiliate. Any
designation pursuant to this Section 2.1(c) shall not relieve the designating Backstop Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement. 

2.2 Backstop Expenses. Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Contemplated
Transactions are consummated, the Debtors hereby agree, on a joint and several basis, to reimburse in cash or pay in cash, as the case may be, the Backstop Expenses as follows: (a) all accrued and unpaid Backstop Expenses incurred up to (and
including) the date of entry by the Bankruptcy Court of the Confirmation Order shall be paid in full in cash on or as soon as reasonably practicable following the date of entry by the Bankruptcy Court of the Confirmation Order (but in no event later
than two (2) Business Days after submission of invoices following entry of the Confirmation Order), without Bankruptcy Court review or further Bankruptcy Court Order, (b) all accrued and unpaid Backstop Expenses incurred up to (and
including) the Effective Date shall be paid in full in cash on the Effective Date, without Bankruptcy Court review or further Bankruptcy Court Order and (c) if applicable, upon termination of this Agreement, all accrued and unpaid Backstop
Expenses incurred up to (and including) the date of such termination shall be paid in full in cash promptly (but in any event within five (5) Business Days) after invoices are presented to the Debtors, without Bankruptcy Court review or further
Bankruptcy Court Order. All Backstop Expenses of a Backstop Party shall be paid to such Backstop Party (or its designee) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) specified by such Backstop Party. The Backstop Expenses shall
constitute allowed administrative expenses against the Debtors’ estates under the Bankruptcy Code. The terms set forth in this Section 2.2 shall survive termination of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and
effect regardless of whether the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Contemplated Transactions are consummated. The obligations set forth in this Section 2.2 are in addition to, and do not limit,
the Debtors’ obligations under Sections 1.3, 8 and 9 hereof. 

  
 -9- 

 2.3 Withholding. The Debtors are entitled to deduct and withhold from
any amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement any withholding of Taxes or other amounts required to be deducted or withheld from the payment of such amounts as required by the Code or other applicable Law. To the extent that any such amounts are so
deducted or withheld, such amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. 

3. Representations and Warranties of the Debtors. Except (a) as set forth in the corresponding section of the
disclosure schedule delivered by the Debtors to the Backstop Parties on the Execution Date attached hereto as Annex A hereto (the “Debtor Disclosure Schedules”) or (b) as disclosed in SEC Reports filed with the SEC on or

applicable) power and authority to conduct its business as it is now conducted. Each Debtor is duly qualified or registered to do business as a foreign corporation or limited liability company (as applicable) and is in good standing (to the extent
such concept is applicable) under the Laws of each jurisdiction in which either the ownership or use of the properties owned or used by it, or the nature of the activities conducted by it, requires such qualification or registration, except where
the failure to be so qualified or registered would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be adverse in any material respect to the Debtors, taken as a whole. 

3.2 Organization and Capitalization of the Subsidiaries. 

(a) Schedule 3.2(a) of the Debtor Disclosure Schedules sets forth the name and jurisdiction of incorporation, organization or formation
(as applicable) of each Subsidiary of UP Holdings. UP Holdings legally and beneficially owns all of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of UP Energy. UP Energy legally and beneficially owns all of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests

by a Debtor after the Execution Date and at or prior to the Closing, will constitute) the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Debtor (or, in the case of a Definitive Document other than this Agreement, the Debtor party thereto), enforceable

(c) Neither the execution and delivery by the Debtors of this Agreement or any of the other Definitive Documents, the execution or filing with
the Bankruptcy Court by the Debtors of the Plan nor the performance or consummation by the Debtors of any of the Contemplated Transactions will, directly or indirectly (with or without notice or lapse of time or both): 

(i) contravene, conflict with or result in a violation or breach of any provision of the Organizational Documents of any
Debtor; 
 (ii) contravene, conflict with or result in a violation of any Law or Order to which any Debtor or any of the

connection with the Chapter 11 Cases and except as set forth on Schedule 3.4 of the Debtor Disclosure Schedules, there is no Proceeding pending, existing, instituted, outstanding or, to the Knowledge of the Debtors, threatened to which any Debtor is
or would be a party or to which any property, asset, right or interest owned, leased or used by any Debtor is bound or subject, except for any Proceeding that if adversely determined to such Debtor would not, individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to be adverse in any material respect to the Debtors, taken as a whole. 

  
 -12- 

 3.5 Brokers or Finders. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.5 of
the Debtor Disclosure Schedules, neither the Debtors nor any of their respective Representatives has incurred any obligation or liability, contingent or otherwise, for brokerage or finders’ fees or agents’ commissions or other similar

unpatentable proprietary or confidential information, systems or procedures) and licenses related to any of the foregoing (collectively, “IP Rights”) owned, licensed or used by any Debtor (collectively, “Debtor IP
Rights”) as such Debtor IP Rights are used in the business of any Debtor, except where the failure to own or possess such rights to (or have adequate licenses related to) any such IP Rights would not, individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to be adverse in any material respect to the Debtors, taken as a whole. The conduct of the businesses and operations of each Debtor does not infringe or misappropriate any IP Rights of any third party, except in such instances
as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be adverse in any material respect to the Debtors, taken as a whole. No Debtor has received any written notice of any claim of infringement or misappropriation of any IP
Rights of any third party as a result of the operation of the respective businesses and operations of any of the Debtors, except in such instances as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be adverse in any material
respect to the Debtors, taken as a whole. None of the Debtor IP Rights owned by any Debtor have been adjudged invalid or unenforceable, except in such instances as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be adverse in
any material respect to the Debtors, taken as a whole. The Debtors have maintained all registered patents, trademarks, copyrights and all applications for any of the foregoing in full force and effect and used commercially reasonable efforts to
protect and maintain all trade secrets, except in such instances as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be adverse in any material respect to the Debtors, taken as a whole. To the Knowledge of the Debtors, no third
party has infringed or misappropriated any Debtor IP Rights or is infringing or misappropriating any Debtor IP Rights. 
 (b) Each Debtor
owns or possesses adequate rights to use all computer systems (including hardware, software databases, firmware and related equipment), communications systems, and networking systems (the “IT Systems”) used by each Debtor (the
“Debtor IT Systems”) in the manner in which they are used in the operation of such Debtor’s businesses and operations, except where the failure to own or possess such rights would not, individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to be adverse in any material respect to the Debtors, taken as a whole. The Debtor IT Systems are adequate in all material respects for their intended use in the operation of each Debtor’s businesses and operations. There
has not been any material malfunction with respect to any of the Debtor IT Systems that has caused material disruption to any Debtor’s businesses or operations in the past three (3) years that has not been remedied or replaced in all
material respects. 
 (c) Each Debtor has complied at all times in all material respects with applicable Laws regarding the collection,

the access, disclosure or use of personal information maintained by or on behalf of any Debtor or, to the Knowledge of the Debtors, threatened any such Proceeding or conducted any investigation or inquiry thereof. To the Knowledge of the Debtors,
the respective businesses and operations of the Debtors have not, in the past three (3) years, experienced any material loss, damage, or unauthorized access, disclosure, use or breach of security of any personal information in any Debtor’s
possession, custody or control, or otherwise held or processed on its behalf.

or interests, or the conduct or operation of its businesses or operations (collectively, the “Licenses and Permits”), except where the failure to possess, obtain, make or give any of the foregoing would not, individually or in the
aggregate, reasonably be expected to be adverse in any material respect to the Debtors, taken as a whole. The operation of the businesses of the Debtors is, and for the past three (3) years has been, in accordance with the Licenses and Permits,
and no event has occurred which permits (nor has an event occurred which with notice or lapse of time or both would permit) the revocation or termination of any of the Licenses and Permits or which might result in any other impairment of the rights
of any of the Debtors therein or thereunder, except to the extent that any such non-compliance, revocation or termination would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be adverse in
any material respect to the Debtors, taken as a whole. No Debtor has received notice of any revocation, suspension or modification of any of the Licenses and Permits, has any reason to believe that any of the Licenses and Permits will be revoked or
suspended, or will not be renewed in the ordinary course, or that any such renewal will be materially impeded, delayed, hindered, conditioned or burdensome to obtain, except to the extent that any of the foregoing would not, individually or in the
aggregate, reasonably be expected to be adverse in any material respect to the Debtors, taken as a whole.

to a civil penalty or Tax under ERISA or the Code, including a civil penalty assessed pursuant to Section 409 or Section 502(i) of ERISA or a Tax imposed pursuant

effect immediately following the Closing, will remain in full force and effect immediately following Closing. All premiums payable under the material Insurance Policies have been paid to the extent such premiums are due and payable. The Debtors have
otherwise complied with the terms and conditions of, and their obligations under, all of the material Insurance Policies in all material respects, and no event has occurred which, with notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute such a
breach or default, or permit termination, modification, or acceleration, under any of the material Insurance Policies. To the Knowledge of the Debtors, there is no threatened termination of, premium increase with respect to, or material alteration

 -38- 

 
contained in this Agreement (including covenants incorporated into this Agreement by reference), or any representation or warranty of any of the Debtors in this Agreement shall have become untrue
(determined as if the Debtors made their respective representations and warranties at all times on and after the Execution Date and prior to the date this Agreement is terminated), and (B) any such breach, failure to perform or occurrence

performed by the Drop-Dead Date, is not cured or performed within seven (7) Business Days after written notice of such breach, failure or occurrence is given to the Debtors by the Requisite Backstop Parties (it being understood and agreed that
the failure by the Debtors to comply with any of the covenants set forth in Section 5.7 will result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.1 and shall not be subject to cure); 

(ii) if any of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 hereof become incapable of fulfillment prior

(i) if (A) any of the Backstop Parties shall have breached or failed to perform any of their respective representations,

result of a termination of the RSA by the Debtors pursuant to 13.04(b) of the RSA or (iii) a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8(b)(vii) or Section 8(c)(iv) hereof if the

Parties elects to commit to purchase has been deposited into the Deposit Account by any of the Backstop Parties, the Backstop Parties that have deposited such Aggregate Purchase Price (or portion thereof) or such aggregate Per Share Purchase Price

termination (but in any event no later than two (2) Business Days after any such effective date), a letter instructing the Rights Offering Subscription Agent to pay to each applicable Backstop Party, by wire transfer of immediately available

defined terms used in any such Sections (but solely to the extent used in any such Sections)), and other than in respect of any liability of any party for any breach of this Agreement prior to such termination, which shall in each case expressly
survive any such termination). 
 (h) Each Debtor hereby acknowledges and agrees and shall not dispute that the giving of notice of
termination by the Requisite Backstop Parties pursuant to this Agreement shall not be a violation of the automatic stay of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code (and each Debtor hereby waives, to the greatest extent possible, the applicability of the
automatic stay to the giving of such notice). 
 9. Indemnification. 

(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Contemplated Transactions are consummated, the Debtors
hereby agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless (i) each of the Backstop Parties, (ii) each of the Affiliates of each of the Backstop Parties, and (iii) each of the stockholders, equity holders, members, partners,
managers, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, accountants, financial advisors, consultants, agents, advisors and controlling persons of each of the Backstop Parties and each of the Affiliates of each of the Backstop Parties (each, in such
capacity, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), interest, penalties, judgments and settlements (excluding Taxes of
the Backstop Parties except to the extent otherwise provided for in this Agreement) arising out of or related to a third party claim that are imposed on, sustained, incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, any Indemnified Party as a result of,
arising out of, related to or in connection with, directly or indirectly, this Agreement, the Backstop Commitments, the Backstop Securities, the Backstop Priority Commitment Securities, the Exit 

  
 -41- 

 
Term Loans, the Exit Warrants, the Rights Offering, any of the Definitive Documents (including the Plan), the solicitation of the Plan, the Chapter 11 Cases or the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby or any of the other Contemplated Transactions, or any claim, litigation, investigation or other Proceeding relating to or arising out of any of the foregoing, regardless of whether any such Indemnified Party is a party thereto, and
to pay and/or reimburse each such Indemnified Party for the reasonable and documented legal or other out-of-pocket costs and expenses as they are incurred in connection
with investigating, monitoring, responding to or defending any of the foregoing (collectively, “Losses”); provided, that the foregoing indemnification will not, as to any Indemnified Party, apply to Losses that are determined
by a final, non-appealable decision by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from any act by such Indemnified Party that constitutes fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. If for
any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Debtors shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such Loss in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Debtors on the one hand and such Indemnified Party on the other hand but also the relative fault of the Debtors, on the one hand, and such Indemnified Party, on
the other hand, as well as any relevant equitable considerations. It is hereby agreed that the relative benefits to the Debtors on the one hand and all Indemnified Parties on the other hand shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as
(i) the total value received or proposed to be received by the Debtors pursuant to the sale of the maximum number of Backstop Securities and Backstop Priority Commitment Securities to the Backstop Parties pursuant to this Agreement (assuming a
Rights Offering Amount equal to $85.0 million) bears to (ii) the Put Option Premium. The Debtors also agree that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability based on its exclusive or contributory negligence or otherwise to the Debtors, any
Person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of the Debtors, or any other Person in connection with or as a result of this Agreement, the Backstop Commitments, the Backstop Securities, the Backstop Priority Commitment Securities, the Exit Term
Loans, the Exit Warrants, the Rights Offering, any of the Definitive Documents (including the Plan), the solicitation of the Plan, the Chapter 11 Cases, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any of the other Contemplated
Transactions, except as to any Indemnified Party to the extent that any Losses incurred by the Debtors resulted solely from the fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party, as determined by a final, non-appealable decision by a court of competent jurisdiction. The terms set forth in this Section 9 shall survive termination of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect
regardless of whether the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Contemplated Transactions are consummated. The indemnity, contribution and reimbursement obligations of the Debtors under this
Section 9 are in addition to, and do not limit, the Debtors’ obligations under Sections 2.2 and 8. 

(b) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice of the commencement of any claim, litigation, investigation or other Proceeding
with respect to which such Indemnified Party may be entitled to indemnification hereunder (“Actions”), such Indemnified Party will, if a claim is to be made hereunder against the Debtors in respect thereof, notify the Debtors in
writing of the commencement thereof; provided, that (i) the omission to so notify the Debtors will not relieve the Debtors from any liability that they may have hereunder except to the extent (and solely to the extent) they have been
actually and materially prejudiced by such failure and (ii) the omission to so notify the Debtors will not relieve the Debtors from 

  
 -42- 

 
any liability that they may have to an Indemnified Party otherwise than on account of this Section 9. In case any such Actions are brought against any Indemnified Party
and such Indemnified Party notifies the Debtors of the commencement thereof, if the Debtors commit in writing to fully indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Party with respect to such Actions, without regard to whether the Effective Date
occurs, the Debtors will be entitled to participate in such Actions, and, to the extent that the Debtors elect by written notice delivered to such Indemnified Party, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Party;
provided, that if the defendants in any such Actions include both such Indemnified Party and the Debtors and such Indemnified Party shall have concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to
those available to the Debtors, such Indemnified Party shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such Actions on behalf of such Indemnified Party. Following the date
of receipt by an Indemnified Party of such indemnification commitment from the Debtors and notice from the Debtors of their election to assume the defense of such Actions and approval by such Indemnified Party of counsel, the Debtors shall not be
liable to such Indemnified Party for expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof after such date (other than reasonable costs of investigation and monitoring) unless (w) such Indemnified Party shall have
employed separate counsel in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, (x) the Debtors shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Party to
represent such Indemnified Party at the Debtors’ expense within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the Actions, (y) after the Debtors assume the defense of such Actions, such Indemnified Party determines that the Debtors are
failing to diligently defend against such Actions in good faith or (z) any of the Debtors shall have authorized in writing the employment of counsel for such Indemnified Party and agreed to be liable for such expenses. 

(c) The Debtors shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnified Party, effect any settlement, compromise or other resolution of
any pending or threatened Actions in respect of which indemnity has been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party unless such settlement, compromise or other resolution (i) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party in form
and substance satisfactory to such Indemnified Party from all liability on the claims that are the subject matter of such Actions and (ii) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on
behalf of any Indemnified Party. 
 10. Survival. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made in
this Agreement shall not survive the Closing except for covenants and agreements made in this Agreement that by their terms are to be satisfied or complied with after the Closing, which covenants and agreements shall survive until fully satisfied or
complied with in accordance with their terms. 
 11. Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended
or modified and the compliance with any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) only if such amendment, modification or waiver is signed, in the case of an
amendment or modification, by the Requisite Backstop Parties and the Debtors, or in the case of a waiver, by the Requisite Backstop Parties (if 

  
 -43- 

 
compliance by the Debtors is being waived) or by the Requisite Backstop Parties and the Debtors (if compliance by any of the Backstop Parties is being waived); provided, however,
that (a) Schedule 1, Schedule 2 and Schedule 3 hereto may be updated in accordance with the terms of Section 13.1 hereof, (b) any amendment or modification to this Agreement that would have
the effect of changing the Backstop Commitment Percentage (including both the Tier 1 Backstop Commitment Percentage and the Tier 2 Backstop Commitment Percentage), the Priority Backstop Commitment Percentage or the Exit Term Loan Cap Amount of any
Backstop Party shall require the prior written consent of such Backstop Party, (c) any amendment or modification to the definition of “Aggregate Purchase Price” or the allocation of the Put Option Premium among the Backstop Parties as
set forth in Section 1.3 shall (in any such case) require the prior written consent of each Backstop Party adversely affected thereby, (d) any amendment or modification to the definition of “Specified Backstop
Party” shall require the prior written consent of each Specified Backstop Party adversely affected thereby, (e) any amendment or modification to Section 1.4 hereof and the definitions of “Exit Term
Loans” and “Exit Warrants” shall require the prior written consent of the Requisite Backstop Parties and the Specified Backstop Parties whose aggregate Exit Term Loan Cap Amount is more than 50.0% of the aggregate Exit Term Loan Cap
Amount for all Specified Backstop Parties, (f) any amendment or modification to the definition of “Priority Backstop Party” shall require the prior written consent of each Priority Backstop Party adversely affected thereby, and
(g) any amendment, modification or waiver to this Agreement that would adversely affect any of the rights or obligations (as applicable) of any Backstop Party set forth in this Agreement in a manner that is different or disproportionate in any
material respect from the effect on the comparable rights or obligations (as applicable) of the Requisite Backstop Parties set forth in this Agreement (other than in proportion to the amount of the Backstop Commitments held by each of the Backstop
Parties) shall also require the written consent of such affected Backstop Party (it being understood that in determining whether consent of any Backstop Party is required pursuant to this clause (g), no personal
circumstances of such Backstop Party shall be considered). No delay on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any waiver on the part of any party of any
right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement, or any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
privilege pursuant to this Agreement. The rights and remedies provided pursuant to this Agreement are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any party otherwise may have at Law or in equity. 

12. Notices, etc.. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all notices, requests,
demands, document deliveries and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given, provided, made or received (a) when sent by electronic mail

Miscellaneous. 
 13.1 Assignments. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding
upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned by any of the parties (whether by operation of Law or
otherwise) without the prior written consent of the Debtors and the Requisite Backstop Parties. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, any Backstop Party’s rights, obligations or interests hereunder may be freely assigned,
delegated or transferred, in whole or in part, by such Backstop Party to (a) any other 

  
 -45- 

 
Backstop Party, (b) any Affiliate of a Backstop Party, or (c) any other Person not referred to in clause (a) or clause (b) above so long as such Person is
approved in writing by the Requisite Backstop Parties prior to such assignment, delegation or transfer (for purposes of this clause (c), the Backstop Party proposing to make such assignment, delegation or transfer, and all of its Affiliates,
shall be deemed to be Defaulting Backstop Parties for purposes of determining whether the definition of “Requisite Backstop Parties” has been satisfied); provided, that (x) any such assignee assumes the obligations of the
assigning Backstop Party hereunder that are being assigned to such assignee and agrees in writing prior to such assignment to be bound by the terms hereof in the same manner as the assigning Backstop Party (which writing shall contain, if the
assignee is not already a Backstop Party, a certification from the assignee as to the accuracy of the representations and warranties made by each Backstop Party in Section 4 hereof as applied to such assignee), (y) any
assignee of a Backstop Commitment must be an Accredited Investor, and (z) the right to purchase Rights Offering Securities (including Priority Rights Offering Securities) are only assignable as set forth in the Rights Offering Procedures.
Following any assignment described in the immediately preceding sentence, Schedule 1 and, if applicable, Schedule 2 and/or Schedule 3 hereto shall be updated by the Debtors (in consultation with the assigning Backstop Party and
the assignee) solely to reflect (i)(A) the name and address of the applicable assignee or assignees, and (B) the Backstop Commitment Percentage (including both the Tier 1 Backstop Commitment Percentage and the Tier 2 Backstop Commitment
Percentage) and, if applicable, the Priority Backstop Commitment Percentage and Exit Term Loan Cap Amount that shall apply to such assignee or assignees, in each case as specified by the assigning Backstop Party and the assignee or assignees, and
(ii) any changes to the Backstop Commitment Percentage (including both the Tier 1 Backstop Commitment Percentage and the Tier 2 Backstop Commitment Percentage) and, if applicable, the Priority Backstop Commitment Percentage and the Exit Term
Loan Cap Amount applicable to the assigning Backstop Party, in each case as specified by the assigning Backstop Party and the assignee or assignees (it being understood and agreed that updates to Schedule 1, Schedule 2 and/or
Schedule 3 hereto shall not result in an overall change to the aggregate Backstop Commitment Percentages, Priority Backstop Commitment Percentages and Exit Term Loan Cap Amounts for all Backstop Parties). Any update to Schedule 1,
Schedule 2 and/or Schedule 3 hereto described in the immediately preceding sentence shall not be deemed an amendment to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions herein, unless otherwise agreed in any
instance by the Debtors and the Requisite Backstop Parties (for purposes of this sentence, the Backstop Party making such assignment, and all of its Affiliates, shall be deemed to be Defaulting Backstop Parties for purposes of determining whether
the definition of “Requisite Backstop Parties” has been satisfied), no assignment of obligations by a Backstop Party to an Affiliate of such Backstop Party will relieve the assigning Backstop Party of its obligations hereunder if any such
Affiliate assignee fails to perform such obligations. 
 13.2 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement, or the
application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance, shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, such invalidity or unenforceability shall attach only to such provision or part thereof and the remaining part of such
provision and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party hereto. Upon any such determination
of invalidity, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a reasonably acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby
are consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.
