 Exhibit 10.1 

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 

(Brady R. Shirley; President and Chief Executive Officer) 

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) dated as of November 14, 2016 by and between DJO Global, Inc. (the
“Company”) and Brady R. Shirley (the “Executive”). 
 The Company desires to continue to employ Executive
and to enter into an employment agreement embodying the terms of such employment; 
 Executive desires to accept such continued employment
and enter into such agreement; 
 In consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein and for other good and valuable
consideration, the parties agree as follows: 
 1. Term of Employment. Subject to the provisions of Section 7 of this Agreement,
Executive shall be employed by the Company and certain of its affiliates under the terms of this Agreement for a period commencing on November 14, 2016 (the “Effective Date”) and ending on November 14, 2020 (the “Employment
Term”) on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement; provided, however, that commencing with November 14, 2020 and on each November 14 thereafter (each an “Extension Date”), the Employment Term
shall be automatically extended for an additional one-year period, unless the Company or Executive provides the other party hereto 60 days prior Notice before the next Extension Date that the Employment Term shall not be so extended. 

2. Position. 
 (a) During
the Employment Term, Executive shall serve as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. In such position, Executive shall report directly to the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) and have such duties
and authority as are customary for the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and as shall be otherwise determined from time to time by the Board. Executive shall also serve as a member of the Board without additional compensation.

 (b) During the Employment Term, Executive will devote Executive’s full business time and best business efforts to the performance of
Executive’s duties as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and will not engage in any other business, profession or occupation for compensation or otherwise which would conflict or interfere with the rendition of such services
either directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Board; provided that nothing herein shall preclude Executive, (i) from engaging in charitable and civic activities, including accepting appointment to or continuing
to serve on any board of directors or trustees of any charitable organization or (ii) subject to the prior approval of the Board, from accepting appointment to or continuing to serve on any board of directors or trustees of any business
corporation; provided in each case, and in the aggregate, that such activities do not conflict or interfere with the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder or conflict with Section 8. 

 3. Base Salary. During the Employment Term, the Company shall pay Executive a base salary
at the annual rate of $750,000, payable in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s usual payment practices. Executive shall be entitled to such increases in Executive’s base salary, if any, as may be determined in the sole
discretion of the Board at least annually. Executive’s annual base salary, as in effect from time to time, is hereinafter referred to as the “Base Salary.” 

4. Incentive Compensation. 

(a) Annual Bonus. With respect to each full fiscal year during the Employment Term starting with the 2017 fiscal year, Executive shall
be eligible to earn an annual bonus award (an “Annual Bonus”) in such amount, if any, as may be determined in the sole discretion of the Board, of 100% of Executive’s Base Salary (the “Target Annual Bonus”),
based upon the achievement of such performance objectives as may be established by the Board. The Annual Bonus, if any, shall be paid to Executive within two and one-half months after the end of the applicable fiscal year; provided that if the
audited financial statements of the Company shall not have been completed by such date, the Annual Bonus shall instead be payable within 30 days of such completion and no later than December 31 of the applicable year. For 2016, Executive’s
Annual Bonus will be calculated based on the Company’s bonus terms applicable to Executive prior to this Agreement. 
 (b) Equity
Arrangements. Executive has agreed to purchase at least $500,000 of shares of newly issued common stock (the “Common Stock”) of the Company at a price equal to the per share fair market value of the Common Stock on the purchase
date (it being acknowledged that the current fair market value is $16.46 per share) no later than 180 days after the Effective Date (the “Co-Invest”). The Co-Invest shall be effected pursuant to the subscription agreement attached
as Exhibit B. In addition, the Company shall grant to Executive 450,000 options to acquire shares of Common Stock no later than 30 days following the Effective Date pursuant to the option award agreement attached as Exhibit C. 

5. Employee Benefits. During the Employment Term, Executive shall be entitled to participate in the Company’s employee benefit
plans (other than annual bonus and incentive plans) as in effect from time to time (collectively “Employee Benefits”), on the same basis as those benefits are generally made available to other senior executives of the Company. Executive
shall be entitled to four weeks’ vacation per fiscal year. 
 Executive acknowledges that the primary business and work location for
Executive’s employment will be Vista, California. Within the 30 days following the Effective Date, Executive shall obtain a corporate apartment in the Vista, California metropolitan area and the Company shall reimburse Executive for the monthly
cost of such corporate apartment up to a reasonable monthly amount as mutually agreed between Executive and the compensation committee of the Board. The Company shall provide the foregoing benefits on an after-tax basis to the extent any such amount
is not deductible as customary business expenses on Executive’s federal income tax return.

 6. Business Expenses. During the Employment Term, reasonable business expenses incurred by
Executive in the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder shall be advanced or promptly reimbursed by the Company in accordance with Company policies. 

7. Termination. The Employment Term and Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated by the Company at any time and for any
reason upon Notice to Executive and by Executive upon at least 30 days’ advance Notice of any such resignation of Executive’s employment; provided, that in the event that the Company terminates Executive’s employment without Cause (as
defined in Section 7(a)(ii)) after Executive has given advance Notice of his resignation but before the end of the notice period, Executive shall receive full payment of Base Salary, any Annual Bonus, and benefits as an active employee for the
unexpired portion of such notice period. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 7 shall exclusively govern Executive’s rights to payment of compensation, severance, employee benefits and
Executive’s business expenses upon termination of employment with the Company and its affiliates. 
 (a) By the Company For Cause or
By Executive Other Than as a Result of a Constructive Termination. 
 (i) The Employment Term and Executive’s
employment hereunder may be terminated by the Company for Cause and shall terminate automatically upon the effective date of Executive’s resignation other than as result of a Constructive Termination (as defined in Section 7(c)(ii)). 

(ii) For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean (A) Executive’s willful and continued
failure to substantially perform Executive’s duties (other than any such failure resulting from the Executive’s Disability or any such failure subsequent to the Executive being delivered notice of the Company’s intent to terminate the
Executive’s employment without Cause), (B) indictment for, conviction of, or a plea of nolo contendere to, (x) a felony (other than traffic-related) under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or any similar
criminal act in a jurisdiction outside the United States or (y) a crime involving moral turpitude that could be injurious to the Company or its reputation, (C) the Executive’s willful malfeasance or willful misconduct which is
materially and demonstrably injurious to the Company, (D) any act of fraud by the Executive in the performance of the Executive’s duties or (E) Executive’s material breach of any of the Company’s material policies. The
determination of Cause shall be made by the Board, with Executive required to recuse himself from all deliberations and decisions with respect thereto. 

(iii) If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause, or if Executive resigns other than as a result of
a Constructive Termination, Executive shall be entitled to receive: 
 (A) the Base Salary and unused vacation accrued
through the date of termination, payable within fifteen days following the date of such termination; 

  
 3 

 (B) any Annual Bonus earned, but unpaid, as of the date of termination for the
immediately preceding fiscal year, paid in accordance with Section 4 (except to the extent payment is otherwise deferred pursuant to any applicable deferred compensation arrangement with the Company, in which case such amount shall be paid in
full at the earliest such time as is provided under such arrangement); 
 (C) reimbursement, within 60 days following
submission by Executive to the Company of appropriate supporting documentation) for any unreimbursed business expenses properly incurred by Executive in accordance with Company policy prior to the date of Executive’s termination;
provided, that claims for such reimbursement (accompanied by appropriate supporting documentation) are submitted to the Company within 90 days following the date of Executive’s termination of employment; and 

(D) such Employee Benefits, if any, as to which Executive may be entitled under the employee benefit plans of the Company (the
amounts described in clauses (A) through (D) hereof being referred to as the “Accrued Rights”). 
 Following such
termination of Executive’s employment by the Company for Cause or resignation by Executive other than as a result of a Constructive Termination, except as set forth in this Section 7(a)(iii), Executive shall have no further rights to any
compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement. 
 (b) Disability or Death. 

(i) The Employment Term and Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate upon Executive’s death and may be terminated by the
Company if Executive becomes physically or mentally incapacitated, after providing Executive reasonable accommodation, and is therefore unable, for a period of nine consecutive months or for an aggregate of 12 months in any 18 consecutive month
period, to perform Executive’s duties. The period of nine months shall be deemed continuous unless Executive returns to work for a period of at least 30 consecutive days during such period and performs during such period at the level and
competence that existed prior to the beginning of the nine-month period. Such incapacity is hereinafter referred to as “Disability”. Any question as to the existence of the Disability of Executive as to which Executive and the Company
cannot agree shall be determined in writing by a qualified independent physician mutually acceptable to Executive and the Company. If Executive and the Company cannot agree as to a qualified independent physician, each shall appoint such a physician
and those two physicians shall select a third qualified independent physician which third such physician shall make such determination. The determination of Disability made by such physician in writing to the Company and Executive shall be final and
conclusive for all purposes of the Agreement and any other agreement between any Company and Executive that incorporates the definition of “Disability”. 

(ii) Upon termination of Executive’s employment hereunder for either Disability or death, Executive or Executive’s estate (as the
case may be) shall be entitled to receive (A) the Accrued Rights and (B) a pro rata portion of the actual Annual Bonus paid for the year of termination, payable on the date when bonuses are otherwise paid to executives. 

  
 4 

 Following Executive’s termination of employment due to death or Disability, except as set
forth in this Section 7(b)(ii), Executive shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement. 

(c) By the Company Without Cause or Resignation by Executive as a result of Constructive Termination. 

(i) The Employment Term and Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated by the Company without Cause or by
Executive as a result of a Constructive Termination. 
 (ii) For purposes of this Agreement, a “Constructive
Termination” shall be deemed to have occurred upon (A) the failure of the Company to pay or cause to be paid Executive’s Base Salary or Annual Bonus (if any) when due; (B) a reduction in Executive’s Base Salary or Target
Annual Bonus opportunity percentage of Base Salary (excluding any change in value of equity incentives or a reduction in Base Salary affecting substantially all similarly situated executives by the same percentage of base salary); (C) any
diminution in Executive’s title or any substantial and sustained diminution in Executive’s duties; (D) a relocation of Executive’s primary work location more than 50 miles without Executive’s prior written consent (other
than as contemplated by this Agreement); (E) a Company Notice to Executive of the Company’s election not to extend the Employment Term; or (F) a failure to elect or reelect or the removal as a member of the Board; provided,
that none of these events shall constitute Constructive Termination unless the Company fails to cure such event within 30 days after Notice is given by Executive specifying in reasonable detail the event which constitutes Constructive Termination;
provided, further, that “Constructive Termination” shall cease to exist for an event on the 60th day following Executive’s knowledge thereof, unless Executive has given the
Company Notice thereof prior to such date. 
 (iii) If Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause
(other than by reason of death or Disability) or if Executive resigns as a result of a Constructive Termination, Executive shall be entitled to receive: 

(A) the Accrued Rights; 

(B) a pro rata portion of the actual Annual Bonus that would have been earned for the year of termination, payable on the date
when bonuses are otherwise paid to executives and after Executive has entered into a release of claims set forth below, based upon the percentage of the fiscal year that shall have elapsed through the date of Executive’s termination of
employment; 

  
 5 

 (C) subject to Executive’s continued compliance with the provisions of
Sections 8 and 9, payment, of an amount equal to (x) one and one-half multiplied by (y) the sum of the annual Base Salary amount plus Executive’s Target Annual Bonus amount for the year of termination, which shall be payable to
Executive in equal installments in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices, as in effect on the date of termination of Executive’s employment, for 18 months after the date of such termination; provided, that the
aggregate amount described in this clause (C) shall be reduced by the present value of any other cash severance benefits payable to Executive under any other severance plans, programs or arrangements of the Company or its affiliates; and 

(D) continued coverage under the Company’s group health (subject to Executive’s election for COBRA continuation
coverage election), life and disability plans on the same terms as applicable to Executive prior to Executive’s date of termination of employment until the earlier of (i) 18 months from Executive’s date of termination of employment
with the Company and (ii) the date such Executive is or becomes eligible for comparable coverage (determined, to the extent practicable, on a coverage-by-coverage and benefit-by-benefit basis) under health, life and disability plans of another
employer. 
 Amounts payable to Executive under subparagraphs (B), (C) and (D) above, are subject to Executive
providing a release of all claims to the Company in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Following Executive’s termination of employment by the Company without Cause (other than by reason of Executive’s death or Disability) or by
Executive’s resignation as a result of a Constructive Termination, except as set forth in this Section 7(c)(iii), Executive shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement. 

(d) Expiration of Employment Term. 

(i) Election Not to Extend the Employment Term. In the event either party elects not to extend the Employment Term pursuant to
Section 1, unless Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 7 (including, without limitation, due to a Constructive Termination pursuant to clause (E) under
Section 7(c)(ii) hereof), Executive’s termination of employment hereunder (whether or not Executive continues as an employee of the Company thereafter) shall be deemed to occur on the close of business on the day immediately preceding the
next scheduled Extension Date and Executive shall be entitled to receive the Accrued Rights. Following such termination of Executive’s employment hereunder as a result of either party’s election not to extend the Employment Term, except as
set forth in this Section 7(d)(i) and subject to the provisions of paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 7 as may apply, Executive shall have no further rights to any compensation or any other benefits under this Agreement.

 (ii) Continued Employment Beyond the Expiration of the Employment Term. Unless the parties otherwise agree in writing, continuation
of Executive’s employment with the Company beyond the expiration of the Employment Term shall be deemed an employment at-will and shall not be deemed to extend any of the provisions of this Agreement and Executive’s employment may
thereafter be terminated at will by either Executive or the Company; provided, that the provisions of Sections 8, 9 and 10 of this Agreement, and any accrued and vested rights of Executive as of the last day of the Employment Term, shall
survive any termination of this Agreement or Executive’s termination of employment hereunder. 

  
 6 

 (e) Notice of Termination. Any purported termination of employment by the Company or by
Executive (other than due to Executive’s death) shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto in accordance with Section 11(i) hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” shall
mean a Notice which shall indicate the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of employment under the provision so
indicated. 
 (f) Board/Committee Resignation. Upon termination of Executive’s employment for any reason, Executive agrees to
resign, as of the date of such termination and to the extent applicable, from the Board (and any committees thereof) and the Board of Directors (and any committees thereof) of any of the Company’s affiliates (and if Executive fails to tender
such resignation within five business days following the Company’s request for such resignation, all amounts payable under this Section 7 other than the Accrued Rights shall be forfeited). 

8. Non-Competition. 
 (a)
The Executive acknowledges that in the course of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive will become familiar with trade secrets and other confidential information of the Company and that the Executive’s services will be
of special, unique and extraordinary value to the Company. Therefore, the Executive agrees that, during the Employment Term and for the 18 months thereafter (the “Restricted Period”), the Executive shall not directly or indirectly
own, manage, control, participate in, consult with, or in any manner engage in any business competing with any business of the Company within the United States and any other geographical area in which the Company then engages in business or engaged
in business at any time during the Executive’s employment with the Company (a “Competitor”). Nothing herein shall prohibit the Executive from being a passive owner of not more than 2% of the outstanding stock of any class of a
corporation that is publicly traded so long as the Executive has no direct or indirect active participation in the business of such corporation. 

(b) During the Restricted Period, the Executive shall not directly or indirectly (i) induce or attempt to induce any employee of the
Company to terminate such employment, or in any way interfere with the employee relationship between the Company and any such employee, (ii) hire any person who is, or at any time during the Employment Term was, an employee of the Company or
(iii) induce or attempt to induce any customer, licensor, licensee or supplier of the Company having a business relationship with the Company to cease doing business with the Company or interfere materially with the relationship between any
such person and the Company 
 (c) The period of time during which the provisions of this Section 8 shall be in effect shall be extended
by the length of time during which Executive is in breach of the terms hereof as determined by any court of competent jurisdiction on the Company’s application for injunctive relief. 

  
 7 

 (d) The parties hereto agree that the duration and area for which the covenants set forth in this
Section 8 are to be effective and are reasonable. In the event that any court or arbitrator determines that the time period or the area, or both of them, are unreasonable and that any of the covenants are to that extent unenforceable, the
parties hereto agree that such covenants will remain in full force and effect, first, for the greatest time period, and second, in the greatest geographical area that would not render them unenforceable. The parties intend that this Agreement will
be deemed to be a series of separate covenants, one for each and every county of each and every state of the United States of America. 
 (e)
Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8 to the contrary, Executive may request a waiver from the Company with regard to any restrictions contained in this Section by providing written notice of any such request to the Company’s Chief
Legal Officer or General Counsel. Upon receipt of any such written notice, the Company’s Chief Legal Officer or General Counsel shall confer with the Board regarding such request and make reasonable efforts to respond to Executive within 15
days of receipt of such notice whether the Board (in its sole determination) shall agree to waive any of the restrictions contained in this Section 8. 

9. Confidentiality; Non-Disparagement; Intellectual Property. 

(a) Confidentiality. 

(i) Executive will not at any time (whether during or after Executive’s employment with the Company) (x) retain or
use for the benefit, purposes or account of Executive or any other person; or (y) disclose, divulge, reveal, communicate, share, transfer or provide access to any person outside the Company (other than its professional advisers who are bound by
confidentiality obligations), any non-public, proprietary or confidential information — including without limitation trade secrets, know-how, research and development, software, databases, inventions, processes, formulae, technology, designs
and other intellectual property, information concerning finances, investments, profits, pricing, costs, products, services, vendors, customers, clients, partners, investors, personnel, compensation, recruiting, training, advertising, sales,
marketing, promotions, government and regulatory activities and approvals — concerning the past, current or future business, activities and operations of the Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates and/or any third party that has disclosed or
provided any of same to the Company on a confidential basis (“Confidential Information”) without the prior written authorization of the Board except as may be required for Executive to discharge his employment duties to the Company.

 (ii) “Confidential Information” shall not include any information that is (a) generally known to the
industry or the public other than as a result of Executive’s breach of this covenant or any breach of other confidentiality obligations by third parties; (b) made legitimately available to Executive by a third party without breach of any
confidentiality obligation; or (c) required by law to be disclosed (including via subpoena); provided that Executive shall give prompt Notice to the Company of such requirement of law, disclose no more information than is so required,
and cooperate, at the Company’s cost, with any attempts by the Company to obtain a protective order or similar treatment. 

  
 8 

 (iii) Except as required by law, Executive will not disclose to anyone, other
than Executive’s immediate family and legal or financial advisors, the existence or contents of this Agreement (unless this Agreement shall be publicly available as a result of a regulatory filing made by the Company or its affiliates or
otherwise is disclosed by the Company to any unaffiliated party that is not under a restriction of confidentiality at least as restrictive as this restriction upon Executive); provided, that Executive may disclose to any prospective future
employer the notice provisions of that part of Section 7 preceding Section 7(a) and the provisions of Sections 8 and 9 of this Agreement provided they agree to maintain the confidentiality of such terms. 

(iv) Upon termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, Executive shall (x) cease and not
thereafter commence use of any Confidential Information or intellectual property (including without limitation, any patent, invention, copyright, trade secret, trademark, trade name, logo, domain name or other source indicator) owned or used by the
Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates; (y) immediately destroy, delete, or return to the Company, at the Company’s option, all originals and copies in any form or medium (including memoranda, books, papers, plans, computer files, letters
and other data) in Executive’s possession or control (including any of the foregoing stored or located in Executive’s office, home, laptop or other computer, whether or not Company property) that contain Confidential Information or
otherwise relate to the business of the Company, its affiliates and subsidiaries, except that Executive may retain only those portions of any personal notes, notebooks and diaries that do not contain any Confidential Information and his rolodex (or
other physical or electronic address book); and (z) fully cooperate with the Company regarding the delivery or destruction of any other Confidential Information not within Executive’s possession or control of which Executive is or becomes
aware. 
 (v) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or restrict Executive from participating, cooperating, or testifying
in any action, investigation, or proceeding with, or providing information to, any self-regulatory organization, any governmental agency or legislative body, including, but not limited to, any legal department within the Company, the Securities and
Exchange Commission, and/or pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act or Sarbanes-Oxley Act; provided that, to the extent permitted by law, upon receipt of any subpoena, court order or other legal process compelling the disclosure of any such information,
documents, or testimony, the Executive shall give prompt prior written notice to the Company’s General Counsel in order to provide the Company reasonable opportunity to take appropriate steps to protect its confidential information to the
fullest extent possible. 
 (b) Non-Disparagement. Executive will not, other than as required by law or by order of a court or other
competent authority, make or publish, or cause any other person to make or publish, any statement that is disparaging or that reflects negatively upon the Company or its affiliates, or that is or reasonably would be expected to be damaging to the
reputation of the Company or its affiliates. 

  
 9 

 (c) Intellectual Property. 

(i) If Executive creates, invents, designs, develops, contributes to or improves any works of authorship, inventions,
intellectual property, materials, documents or other work product (including without limitation, research, reports, software, databases, systems, applications, presentations, textual works, content, or audiovisual materials), either alone or with
third parties, at any time during Executive’s employment by the Company and within the scope of such employment and/or with the use of any the Company resources (“Company Works”), Executive shall promptly and fully disclose
same to the Company and hereby irrevocably assigns, transfers and conveys, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, all rights and intellectual property rights therein (including rights under patent, industrial property, copyright,
trademark, trade secret, unfair competition and related laws) to the Company to the extent ownership of any such rights does not vest originally in the Company. 

(ii) All of Executive’s records regarding Company Works will be available to and remain the sole property and intellectual
property of the Company at all times. 
 (iii) Executive shall take all requested actions and execute all requested documents
(including any licenses or assignments required by a government contract) at the Company’s expense (but without further remuneration) to assist the Company in validating, maintaining, protecting, enforcing, perfecting, recording, patenting or
registering any of the Company’s rights in the Company Works. If the Company is unable for any other reason to secure Executive’s signature on any document for this purpose, then Executive hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the
Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as Executive’s agent and attorney in fact, to act for and in Executive’s behalf and stead to execute any documents and to do all other lawfully permitted acts in connection with the
foregoing. 
 (iv) Executive shall not improperly use for the benefit of, bring to any premises of, divulge, disclose,
communicate, reveal, transfer or provide access to, or share with the Company any confidential, proprietary or non-public information or intellectual property relating to a former employer or other third party without the prior written permission of
such third party. Executive shall comply with all relevant policies and guidelines of the Company, including regarding the protection of confidential information and intellectual property and potential conflicts of interest. Executive acknowledges
that the Company may amend any such policies and guidelines from time to time, and that Executive remains at all times bound by their most current version. 

(v) The provisions of Section 8, 9 and 10 shall survive the termination of Executive’s employment for any reason.

 10. Specific Performance. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s remedies at law for a breach or threatened
breach of any of the provisions of Sections 8 or 9 would be inadequate and the Company would suffer irreparable damages as a result of such breach or threatened breach. In recognition of this fact, Executive agrees that, in the event of such a
breach or threatened breach, in addition to any remedies at law, the Company, without posting any bond, shall be entitled to cease making any payments or providing any benefit otherwise required by this Agreement and obtain equitable relief in the
form of specific performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then be available. 

  
 10 

 11. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without
regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof. 
 (b) Entire Agreement/Amendments. This Agreement contains the entire understanding
of the parties with respect to the employment of Executive by the Company. There are no restrictions, agreements, promises, warranties, covenants or undertakings between the parties with respect to the subject matter herein other than those
expressly set forth herein or as may be set forth from time to time in the Company’s employee benefit plans and policies applicable to Executive. This Agreement may not be altered, modified, or amended except by written instrument signed by the
parties hereto. In the event of any inconsistency between this Agreement and any other plan, program, practice or agreement of which Executive is a participant or a party, this Agreement shall control unless such other plan, program, practice or
agreement specifically refers to the provisions of this sentence. 
 (c) No Waiver. The failure of a party to insist upon strict
adherence to any term of this Agreement on any occasion shall not be considered a waiver of such party’s rights or deprive such party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement. 

(d) Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be or become invalid, illegal or
unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby. 

(e) Assignment. This Agreement, and all of Executive’s rights and duties hereunder, shall not be assignable or delegable by
Executive. Any purported assignment or delegation by Executive in violation of the foregoing shall be null and void ab initio and of no force and effect. This Agreement may be assigned by the Company to a person or entity which is an
affiliate or a successor in interest to substantially all of the business operations of the Company. Upon such assignment, the rights and obligations of the Company hereunder shall become the rights and obligations of such affiliate or successor
person or entity. 
 (f) Counterclaim; No Mitigation. The Company’s obligation to pay Executive the amounts provided and to make
the arrangements provided hereunder shall be subject to counterclaim and to seek recoupment of amounts owed by Executive to the Company or its affiliates. Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for pursuant to
this Agreement by seeking other employment, and such payments shall not be reduced by any compensation or benefits received from any subsequent employer or other endeavor. 

  
 11 

 (g) Compliance with IRC Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, (i) if at the time of Executive’s termination of employment with the Company Executive is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”) and the deferral of the commencement of any payments or benefits otherwise payable hereunder as a result of such termination of employment is necessary in order to prevent any accelerated or additional tax under
Section 409A of the Code, then the Company will defer the commencement of the payment of any such payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to Executive) until the date that
is six months following Executive’s termination of employment with the Company (or the earliest date as is permitted under Section 409A of the Code) and (ii) if any other payments of money or other benefits due to Executive hereunder
could cause the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, such payments or other benefits shall be deferred if deferral will make such payment or other benefits compliant under Section 409A of the
Code, or otherwise such payment or other benefits shall be restructured, to the extent possible, in a manner, determined by the Board, that does not cause such an accelerated or additional tax. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each
payment made under this Agreement shall be designated as a “separate payment” within the meaning of the Section 409A of the Code, and references herein to Executive’s “termination of employment” shall refer to
Executive’s separation from service with the Company within the meaning of Section 409A. To the extent any reimbursements or in-kind benefits due to Executive under this Agreement constitute “deferred compensation” under
Section 409A of the Code, any such reimbursements or in-kind benefits shall be paid to Executive in a manner consistent with Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv). For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent any payment due under
Section 7 is considered “non-qualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, such payment shall be made no earlier than the date that is the 60th day following Executive’s date of termination of employment
from the Company. The Company shall consult with Executive in good faith regarding the implementation of the provisions of this Section 11(g); provided that neither the Company nor any of its employees or representatives shall have any
liability to Executive with respect to thereto. 
 (h) Successors; Binding Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and
be binding upon personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. In the event of Executive’s death prior to receipt of all amounts payable to Executive (including any unpaid
amounts due under Section 7), such amounts shall be paid to Executive’s beneficiary designated by him by Notice to the Company or, in the absence of such designation, to his estate.

 3. Term of
Option. The term of the Option shall commence on the Grant Date and, unless earlier terminated in accordance with Section 7 hereof, shall expire ten (10) years from the Grant Date. 

 4. Right to Exercise. 

(a) The Option Shares in the Time-Based Tranche shall become vested and exercisable in increments of 20% each on the first through fifth
anniversary dates of the Grant Date, provided the Optionee remains in the continuous employ of the Company, any Subsidiary or Affiliate as of the applicable anniversary date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Option Shares in the Time-Based Tranche
shall become immediately exercisable upon the occurrence of a Change in Control if Optionee remains in the continuous employ of the Company or any Subsidiary until the date of the consummation of such Change in Control. 

(b) The Option Shares in the Market Return Tranche will be eligible to vest and become exercisable on each Determination Date, as follows: 

 

	 	•	 	If Blackstone has realized an aggregate MOIC of 1.5 times on a Determination Date, then a total of 25% of the Market Return Tranche will vest and become exercisable on such Determination Date; 

 

	 	•	 	If Blackstone has realized an aggregate MOIC of 2.25 times on a Determination Date, then a total of 100% of the Market Return Tranche will, to the extent not previously vested, vest and become exercisable on the such
Determination Date; and 

  

	 	•	 	If Blackstone has realized an aggregate MOIC of greater than 1.5 times but less than 2.25 times on a Determination Date, then the percentage of the Market Return Tranche that will be vested and become exercisable on
such Determination Date will be calculated based on a straight-line interpolation between the above numbers. 

 (c) The
Optionee shall be entitled to the privileges of ownership with respect to Option Shares purchased and delivered to Optionee upon the exercise of all or part of this Option, subject to Section 8 hereof. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Optionee is on an approved leave of absence, as provided in the last paragraph of
Section 7 hereof, the Optionee will be considered as still in continuous employ of the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate for purposes of this Plan. 

5. Option Nontransferable. The Optionee may not transfer or assign all or any part of the Option other than by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution. This Option may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Optionee, only by the Optionee, or in the event of the Optionee’s legal incapacity, by the Optionee’s guardian or legal representative acting on behalf of
the Optionee in a fiduciary capacity under state law and court supervision. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Optionee may transfer or assign all or any part of the Option to “family members” (as defined in the General
Instructions to Form S-8 of the Securities Act of 1933) or trusts, partnerships or similar entities for the benefit of such family members, for estate planning purposes or in connection with the disposition of
Optionee’s estate. 

 6. Notice of Exercise; Payment. 

(a) To the extent then exercisable, the Option may be exercised in whole or in part by written notice to the Company stating the number of
Option Shares for which the Option is being exercised and the intended manner of payment. The date of such notice shall be the exercise date. Payment equal to the aggregate Option Price of the Option Shares being purchased pursuant to an exercise of
the Option must be tendered in full with the notice of exercise to the Company in one or a combination of the following methods as specified by the Optionee in the notice of exercise: (i) cash in the form of currency or check or by wire
transfer as directed by the Company, (ii) provided that the shares of the Company’s common stock (“Shares”) are traded on an established securities market, through the surrender to the Company of Shares owned by the Optionee for
at least six months as valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise, (iii) through net exercise, using Shares to be acquired upon exercise of the Option, such Shares being valued at their Fair Market Value (which for such purpose
shall have the meaning set forth in the Stockholders Agreement) on the date of exercise, or (iv) through such other form of consideration as is deemed acceptable by the Compensation Committee. 

(b) As soon as practicable upon the Company’s receipt of the Optionee’s notice of exercise and payment, the Company shall direct the
due issuance of the Option Shares so purchased. 
 (c) As a further condition precedent to the exercise of this Option in whole or in part,
the Optionee shall comply with all regulations and the requirements of any regulatory authority having control of, or supervision over, the issuance of the shares of common stock and in connection therewith shall execute any documents which the
Compensation Committee shall in its sole discretion deem necessary or advisable. 
 7. Termination of Agreement. The Agreement and
the Option granted hereby shall terminate automatically and without further notice on the earliest of the following dates: 
 (a) After the
Optionee’s termination of employment due to the Optionee’s death or Disability, all unvested Option Shares in the Time-Based Tranche will be forfeited immediately and terminate and all vested Option Shares in the Time-Based Tranche and the
Market Return Tranche shall remain exercisable until the lesser of (i) one (1) year following the Optionee’s date of termination of employment or (ii) the remaining term of the Option; provided, however, that it shall be a
condition to the exercise of the Option in the event of the Optionee’s death that the Person exercising the Option shall (i) have agreed in a form satisfactory to the Company to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and the
Stockholders Agreement and (ii) comply with all regulations and the requirements of any regulatory authority having control of, or supervision over, the issuance of the shares of common stock and in connection therewith shall execute any
documents which the Compensation Committee shall in its sole discretion deem necessary or advisable. All unvested Option Shares in the Market Return Tranche shall remain outstanding for the twelve (12) month period following the date of such
termination of employment by reason of death or Disability. To the extent an event described in Section 4(b) occurs during such twelve (12) month period that would cause some or all of such unvested Option Shares to become vested (a
“Post-Termination Vesting Event”), the appropriate number of Option Shares will vest as of such Post-Termination Vesting Event, and remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following such Post-Termination Vesting Event (but not
beyond the remaining term of the Option). On the twelve (12) month anniversary of the date of termination of employment by reason of death or Disability, all remaining unvested Option Shares will be forfeited; 

 (b) After the Optionee’s termination of employment by the Company without Cause or by the
Optionee for Good Reason, all vested Option Shares shall remain exercisable until the lesser of (i) ninety (90) calendar days following the Optionee’s date of termination of employment or (ii) the remaining term of the Option.
All unvested Option Shares in the Time-Based Tranche shall be forfeited immediately and terminate on the date of such termination of employment by Optionee. All unvested Option Shares in the Market Return Tranche shall remain outstanding for the
twelve (12) month period following the date of such termination of employment by the Company without Cause or by the Optionee for Good Reason. To the extent a Post-Termination Vesting Event occurs within such twelve (12) month period, the
appropriate number of Option Shares in the Market Return Tranche will vest as of such Post-Termination Vesting Event, and remain exercisable for ninety (90) calendar days following such Post-Termination Vesting Event (but not beyond the
remaining term of the Option). On the twelve (12) month anniversary of the date of termination of employment by reason of termination by the Company without Cause or by the Optionee with Good Reason, all remaining unvested Option Shares will be
forfeited; 
 (c) The date of the Optionee’s termination of employment for Cause, upon which all vested and unvested Option Shares will
be forfeited immediately and terminate; 
 (d) After the Optionee’s termination of employment without Good Reason, all unvested Option
Shares will be forfeited immediately and terminate and all vested Option Shares shall remain exercisable until the lesser of (i) ninety (90) calendar days following the Optionee’s date of termination or (ii) the remaining term of
the Option; or 
 (e) Ten (10) years from the Grant Date. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in all termination events, other than a termination of the Optionee’s employment for Cause, if the last
day to exercise vested Option Shares occurs after the date on which the Company’s common stock is publicly traded on a national stock exchange and during a lock-up period or securities law blackout period, the otherwise applicable
post-termination Option exercise period shall continue, but not beyond the remaining term of the Option, until thirty (30) calendar days after the first day when the terminating Optionee is no longer precluded from selling stock acquired upon
exercise of Options for either of such reasons. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing herein shall prohibit the Optionee from exercising his or her vested Options through net exercise, using Shares to be acquired upon exercise of
the Option, during any lock-up or securities law blackout period to the extent not prohibited by law. 
 In the event that the
Optionee’s employment is terminated in the circumstances described in Section 7(c) hereof, this Agreement shall terminate at the time of such termination notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement and the Optionee’s Option
will cease to be exercisable to the extent exercisable as of such termination and will not be or become exercisable after such termination. The Optionee shall be deemed to be an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary if on a leave of absence
approved in writing by the Compensation Committee or the Chief Executive Officer of the Company to the extent consistent with Section 409A of the Code. 

8. Stockholders Agreement. The Optionee agrees that any Option Shares that the Optionee receives pursuant to this Agreement or under
the Plan are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Stockholders Agreement. 
 9. No Employment Contract. Nothing
contained in this Agreement shall (a) confer upon the Optionee any right to be employed by or remain employed by the Company or any Subsidiary, or (b) limit or affect in any manner the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate
the employment or adjust the compensation of the Optionee. 

 10. Dividend Equivalents. Upon the payment of any ordinary or extraordinary cash dividend
(or similar distributions) to holders of Company common stock, the Optionee will be credited with dividend equivalent rights with respect to the Options as follows. Dividend equivalents relating to vested Option Shares shall be paid to the Optionee
in cash at the same time dividends are paid to holders of Company common stock. Dividend equivalents relating to unvested Option Shares will be credited to a notional account maintained on the books of the Company for the benefit of the Optionee,
which account shall not accrue interest. The Optionee will become vested in such account at the same time as the Options to which the dividend equivalents relate vest and become exercisable, and such vested amounts shall be payable in cash upon the
applicable vesting date, and in no event later than 2 1⁄2 months following the end of the calendar year in which the applicable vesting date occurs. Unvested
amounts held in such account shall be forfeited by the Optionee upon the date of any termination of employment; provided, however, that if such termination of employment results in the continuation of unvested Option Shares, as provided in Sections
7(a) and 7(b), above, forfeiture of dividend equivalents shall be delayed until the twelve (12) month anniversary of such termination, and to the extent that any Option Shares vest during such twelve (12) month period, such related
dividend equivalents shall also vest and be paid to the Optionee in cash on the twelve (12) month anniversary of such termination or, if the Options are forfeited, such related dividend equivalents shall also be forfeited. 

11. Taxes and Withholding. The Company or any Subsidiary may withhold, or require the Optionee to remit to the Company or any
Subsidiary, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, local or foreign taxes (including the Optionee’s FICA obligation) in connection with any payment made or benefit realized by the Optionee or other person under this Agreement or
otherwise, and if the amounts available to the Company or any Subsidiary for such withholding are insufficient, it shall be a condition to the receipt of such payment or the realization of such benefit that Optionee or such other person make
arrangements satisfactory to the Company or any Subsidiary for payment of the balance of such taxes required to be withheld. The Optionee may elect to have such withholding obligation satisfied by surrendering to the Company or any Subsidiary a
portion of the Option Shares that are issued or transferred to the Optionee upon the exercise of an Option (but only to the extent of the minimum withholding required by law), and the Option Shares so surrendered by Optionee shall be credited
against any such withholding obligation at the Fair Market Value (which for such purpose shall have the meaning set forth in the Stockholders Agreement) of such Shares on the date of such surrender. 

12. Compliance with Law. The Company shall make reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws;
provided, however, that notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Option shall not be exercisable if the exercise thereof would result in a violation of any such law. 

13. Adjustments. 
 (a) The
Compensation Committee shall make or provide for such substitution or adjustments in the number of Option Shares covered by this Option, in the Option Price applicable to such Option, and in the kind of shares covered thereby and/or such other
equitable substitution or adjustments as the Compensation Committee may determine to prevent dilution or enlargement of the Optionee’s rights that otherwise would result from (i) any stock dividend, extraordinary cash-dividend, stock
split, combination of shares, recapitalization, or other change in the capital structure of the Company, (ii) any merger, consolidation, spin-off, split-off, spin-out, split-up, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation,
or other distribution of assets or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase securities, or (iii) any other corporate transaction or event having an effect similar to any of the foregoing. In the case of a Change in Control, such substitutions
and adjustments include, without limitation, canceling any and all Options Shares in the Time-Based Tranche in exchange for cash payments equal to the excess, if any, of the value of the consideration paid to a shareholder of an Option Share over
the Option Price per share subject to such Option in connection with such an adjustment event. 

 (b) To the extent that any equity securities of any member of the Company’s controlled group
become publicly traded, at such time all Options shall be exchanged, in a manner consistent with Sections 409A and 424 of the Code, for options with the same intrinsic value in the publicly-traded entity, and all Shares shall be exchanged for shares
of common stock with the same aggregate value of the publicly-traded entity. 
 14. Relation to Other Benefits. Any economic or other
benefit to Optionee under this Agreement shall not be taken into account in determining any benefits to which Optionee may be entitled under any profit-sharing, retirement or other benefit or compensation plan maintained by the Company or any
Subsidiary and shall not affect the amount of any life insurance coverage available to any beneficiary under any life insurance plan covering employees of the Company or any Subsidiary. 

15. Amendments. Any amendment to the Plan shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Agreement to the extent that the amendment is
applicable hereto. 
 16. Severability. If one or more of the provisions of this Agreement is invalidated for any reason by a court
of competent jurisdiction, any provision so invalidated shall be deemed to be separable from the other provisions hereof, and the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be valid and fully enforceable. 

17. Relation to Plan. This Agreement is subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. In the event of any inconsistent provisions
between this Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall govern. The Compensation Committee acting pursuant to the Plan, as constituted from time to time, shall, except as expressly provided otherwise herein, have the right to determine any questions
which arise in connection with the Option or its exercise. 
 18. Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall
inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors, administrators, heirs, legal representatives and assigns of Optionee, and the successors and assigns of the Company. 

19. Governing Law. The interpretation, performance, and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New
York, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws thereof and all parties, including their successors and assigns, consent to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of New York. 

20. Prior Agreement. As of the Grant Date, this Agreement supersedes any and all prior and/or contemporaneous agreements, either oral
or in writing, between the parties hereto, or between either or both of the parties hereto and the Company, with respect to the subject matter hereof. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that no representations, inducements, promises, or other
agreements, orally or otherwise, have been made by any party, or anyone acting on behalf of any party, pertaining to the subject matter hereof, which are not embodied herein, and that no prior and/or contemporaneous agreement, statement or promise
pertaining to the subject matter hereof that is not contained in this Agreement shall be valid or binding on either party. 

 21. Notices. For all purposes of this Agreement, all communications, including without
