Revenue Code (“Code”) and the regulations issued thereunder, that would otherwise be paid solely as a result of such separation shall be paid to Executive during the six-month period beginning on the date of such separation, provided that
(i) such delay shall not be required to the extent that the sum of such payments during the six-month period does not exceed two times the lesser of (A) Executive’s Base Salary for the calendar year preceding the separation from

 1 

 
period in which no payment may be made, such period shall immediately end and all installments then due to Executive shall be paid in accordance with Executive’s beneficiary designation or,
if no such designation has been made or applies, to his estate. For purposes of the preceding sentence, Executive’s status as a Specified Employee, which shall be determined in accordance with regulations under Sections 409A and

owning within the meaning of Section 318 of the Code) more than 1% of the outstanding stock of the Company or stock possessing more than 1% of the total combined voting power of all stock of the Company, and had annual compensation from the
Company in excess of $150,000. For purposes of the preceding sentence, an individual’s annual compensation shall be the total compensation reported in box 1 of IRS Form W-2 for the applicable calendar year. 

(b) Acceleration of Payments Prohibited. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Sections 3.3(a), 3.3(c), 3.4,
3.5(a) and 3.5(c) shall be construed and applied so that the time of payment of any amount constituting the deferral of compensation, within the meaning of Section 409A(d) of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder, shall be determined
in accordance with the plan or other arrangement providing such payment and shall not be accelerated as a result of Executive’s disability or termination of employment to which this Agreement applies.”

 Exhibit 10.12 
 BJ’S WHOLESALE CLUB, INC. 
 CHANGE OF CONTROL SEVERANCE BENEFIT PLAN

 FOR KEY EMPLOYEES 
 As Amended and Restated 
 January 31, 2010 

BJ’s Wholesale Club, Inc. (the “Company”) desires to assure that it and its Subsidiaries (collectively, the
“Employer”) will have the benefit of the continued service and experience of certain of their key employees and to assure the Employer and such employees of the continuity of management of the Company and the Employer in the event of a
change of control of the Company, and adopts this plan as amended and restated (the “Plan”) to provide such assurances. This Plan is intended to cover as Participants those employees of the Employer who are designated or otherwise
described as a Participant in Exhibit A, paragraph (j). 
 1. Benefits Upon Change of Control. 

1.01 In General. (a) Within 30 days following a Change of Control, whether or not a Participant’s
employment has been terminated, the Company shall pay to the Participant in a lump sum: an amount equal to the product of (i) the target incentive award under the BJ’s Wholesale Club, Inc. Management Incentive Plan or any other annual
incentive plan which is applicable to the Participant for the fiscal year in which the Change of Control occurs and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year prior to the Change of Control and the
denominator of which is 365; and 
 (b) If the Participant is a participant in any long-range incentive plan at
the time of the Change of Control, the Company shall pay the benefits provided for by the terms of such plan upon the occurrence of a Change of Control at such time as may be provided by the long-range incentive plan. 

1.02 Benefits Following a Qualified Termination. Participants whose employment terminates in a Qualified Termination shall be
entitled to the following additional benefits: 
 (a) Within 30 days following the Participant’s Date of
Termination, the Employer shall pay to the Participant an amount equal to the accrued and unpaid portion of the Participant’s Base Salary through the Date of Termination. 

(b) In addition to amounts described in paragraph (a) above, the Employer shall within 30 days following the
Participant’s Date of Termination pay in a single lump sum an amount equal to the Participant’s, Base Salary, determined as hereinafter provided, multiplied by the Applicable Number of Weeks, determined as provided on Exhibit B, to any
Participant who had been employed by the Employer for at least 12 months prior to the Date of Termination. The 

 
Base Salary payable under this paragraph shall equal the Participant’s Base Salary as in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control or, if greater, the Participant’s Base Salary
as in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination. However, in the case of a Participant who has the management title of Senior Vice President, if such Participant’s Base Salary was reduced within 180 days before the commencement of a
Standstill Period, such Participant’s Base Salary in effect immediately before such reduction shall be substituted for the Base Salary in effect immediately before his Date of Termination. 

(c) The Employer shall arrange and pay for continuation of medical and life insurance benefits for the Participant (which
shall be in amount and terms substantially comparable to those in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control) for a period commencing on the Date of Termination and continuing for the Applicable Number of Weeks. In the case of a Participant
who has the management title of Senior Vice President, if such Participant’s title was reduced within 180 days before the commencement of a Standstill Period, the amount and terms of such medical and life insurance benefits shall be the same as
provided under the plans and programs in which such Participant was entitled to participate immediately before such reduction in title if the benefits are greater. To the extent the Participant, immediately prior to the Change of Control (or, in the
case of a Participant described in the preceding sentence, before his change in management title), was responsible for paying a portion of the premiums with respect to such insurance benefits, the Participant shall be required to continue to pay
such amount. 
 1.03 Coordination With Certain Tax Rules. 

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, in the event that the Company undergoes a Change in Ownership or
Control (as defined below), the Company shall not be obligated to provide to the Participant a portion of any “Contingent Compensation Payments” that the Participant would otherwise be entitled to receive to the extent necessary to
eliminate any “excess parachute payments” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(l) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)) for the Participant. For purposes of this Section 1.03, the Contingent
Compensation Payments so eliminated shall be referred to as the “Eliminated Payments” and the aggregate amount (determined in accordance with Proposed Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q/A-30 or any successor provision) of the
Contingent Compensation Payments so eliminated shall be referred to as the “Eliminated Amount.” 
 (b)
For purposes of this Section 1.03, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings: 
 (i)
“Change in Ownership or Control” shall mean a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company determined in accordance with Section 280G(b)(2) of
the Code. 
 (ii) “Contingent Compensation Payments” shall mean any payment (or benefit) in the nature
of compensation that is made or made available (under this Plan or otherwise) to a “disqualified individual” (as defined in Section 280G(c) of 

  
 2 

 
the Code) and that is contingent (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Code) on a Change in Ownership or Control of the Company. 

(c) Any payments or other benefits otherwise due to the Participant following a Change in Ownership or Control that could
be characterized (as reasonably determined by the Company) as Contingent Compensation Payments shall not be made until the determination, pursuant to this Section 1.03(c), of which Contingent Compensation Payments shall be treated as Eliminated
Payments. Within 30 days after each date on which the Participant first becomes entitled to receive (whether or not then due) a Contingent Compensation Payment relating to such Change in Ownership or Control, the Company shall determine and notify
the Participant (with reasonable detail regarding the basis for its determinations) (i) which of such payments and benefits constitute Contingent Compensation Payments and (ii) the Eliminated Amount. Within 30 days after delivery of such
notice to the Participant, the Participant shall notify the Company which Contingent Compensation Payments, or portions thereof (the aggregate amount of which, determined in accordance with Proposed Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q/A-30
or any successor provision, shall be equal to the Eliminated Amount), shall be treated as Eliminated Payments. In the event that the Participant fails to notify the Company pursuant to the preceding sentence on or before the required date, the
Contingent Compensation Payments (or portions thereof) that shall be treated as Eliminated Payments shall be determined by the Company in its absolute discretion. 

(d) The provisions of this Section 1.03 are intended to apply to any and all payments or benefits available to the
Participant under this Plan or any other agreement or plan of the Company under which the Participant receives Contingent Compensation Payments. 
 1.04 Definitions. The terms defined in Exhibits A and C hereto are used herein as so defined. 
 2. Noncompetition; No Mitigation of Damages; Other Severance Payments; Withholding. 
 2.01 Noncompetition. Upon a Change of Control, any agreement by a Participant not to engage in competition with the Employer subsequent to the termination of his employment, whether contained in an
employment contract or other agreement, shall no longer be effective. 
 2.02 No Duty to Mitigate Damages. A
Participant’s benefits under this Plan shall be considered severance pay in consideration of his past and future services, and his entitlement thereto shall neither be governed by any duty to mitigate his damages by seeking further employment
nor offset by any compensation he may receive from future employment. 
 2.03 Other Severance Payments. In the event that
the Participant has an employment contract or any other agreement with the Employer which entitles the Participant to severance payments upon the termination of his employment with the Employer (other than payments to be made under the
Company’s Severance Policy, as described in Section 1.02(b)), the amount of any 

  
 3 

 
such severance payments shall be deducted from the payments to be made to the Participant under this Plan so as to avoid duplication of severance benefits. 

2.04 Withholding. Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, all payments required to be made by the Employer hereunder to a
Participant shall be subject to the withholding of such amounts, if any, relating to tax and other payroll deductions as the Employer may reasonably determine it should withhold pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. 

3. Notice of Termination. During a Standstill Period, a Participant’s employment may be terminated by the Employer only upon
30 days’ written notice to the Participant. 
 4. Notices. All notices shall be in writing and shall be deemed given
five days after mailing in the continental United States by registered or certified mail, or upon personal receipt after delivery, telex, telecopy or telegram, to the party entitled thereto at the address stated below or to such changed address as
the addressee may have given by a similar notice:

		  	Natick, Massachusetts 01760
		  	Attention: Treasurer
		
	To the Participant:	  	At his home address,
		  	as last shown on the
		  	records of the Employer

 5.
Severability. In the event that any provision of this Plan shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be enforceable in any other jurisdiction in which valid and enforceable. In any event, the remaining
provisions shall remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law. 
 6. Continued Employment. This
Plan shall not give a Participant any right of continued employment or any right to any compensation or benefits from the Company or the Employer except the benefits specifically provided for herein and shall not limit the Employer’s right to
change the terms of or terminate the Participant’s employment, with or without Cause, at any time other than during a Standstill Period, except as may be otherwise provided in a written employment agreement between the Participant and the
Employer.

2002; provided that on March 31, 2000 and each March 31 thereafter, the termination date provided in this clause shall be automatically extended for an additional year (the “Date”) (so that on March 31, 2000 the Date shall
become March 31, 2003, and so on) unless, not later than 90 days prior to any March 31, the Company acting by its Board of Directors elects not to renew this Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Plan and the employee benefits
described herein may be amended or terminated as to all Participants or as to any specific Participant at any time by the Company acting by its Board of Directors and shall be automatically terminated with respect to any specific Participant upon

all of its assets; provided that no such amendment or termination which occurs during a Standstill Period shall terminate or affect the existing rights of any Participant hereunder except that all such rights shall terminate as to a Participant
employed by a Subsidiary which has either ceased to be a Subsidiary of the Company or sold all or substantially all of its assets during a Standstill Period unless the employment of the Participant shall have been terminated in a Qualified
Termination within 90 days of such event. 
 8. Legal Fees and Expenses. The Employer shall pay all legal fees and
expenses, including but not limited to counsel fees, stenographer fees, printing costs, etc. incurred by a Participant in reasonably contesting or disputing that the termination of his employment during a Standstill Period is for Cause or other than
for good reason (as defined in Exhibit A paragraph (k)) or in obtaining any right or benefit to which the Participant is entitled under this Plan. Any amount payable under this Plan that is not paid when due shall accrue interest at the prime rate
as from time to time in effect at Bank of America (or any successor thereto, or if there is no successor entity thereto, such other commercial banking institution as shall be selected by the Executive Compensation Committee of the Company’s
Board of Directors) until paid in full.

The acquisition by an individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) (a “Person”) of beneficial ownership (within the
meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 20% or more of either (i) the then-outstanding shares of common stock of the Company (the “Outstanding Company Common Stock”) or (ii) the combined voting power of the
