payment would have been made to the Executive based upon the restated financial results. In each such instance, the Company will, to the extent practicable, seek to recover from Executive the amount by which Executive’s Incentive Compensation
for the relevant period exceeded the lower payment that would have been made based on the restated financial results and Executive shall be liable to repay the same.

occurred, less one United States dollar (US $1.00); and payment shall be made in a lump sum on the next regularly scheduled payroll date following the sixtieth (60th) day after Executive’s termination; provided further that to
the extent any such termination of employment occurs pursuant to Section 5.2 (Disability), monetary payments actually received by the Executive from a bona fide short-term or long-term disability plan maintained by the Company shall be used to
reduce any payment made by the Company pursuant to this provision on a dollar for dollar basis; provided that: (i) the disability plan payments qualify as “disability pay” under Treasury Regulation
Section 31.3121(v)(2)-1(b)(4)(iv)(C) (ii) such reduction does not otherwise affect the time of payment of such Base Salary or the provision of benefits; (iii) the disability plan covers a

  
 4 

 
substantial number of employees and, was in effect before Executive became Disabled; and (iv) any subsequent amendment of such plan or any change in the benefits payable under such plan

 c) any cash incentive award earned with respect to a calendar year ending on or prior to the date of such termination of employment but unpaid as of such date, shall be payable at the same time such
payment would be made if Executive continued to be employed by the Company; 
 (d) a pro-rata portion of Executive’s cash
incentive award for the calendar year in which Executive’s termination of employment occurs (determined by multiplying the amount of such Cash Bonus, which would be due for the full calendar year by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
number of days during the calendar year of termination that Executive is employed with the Company and the denominator of which is 365) based on actual performance and payable at the same time that other senior executives of the Company receive
bonus payments in respect of the calendar year in which such termination occurs, but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the end of the calendar year to which such cash incentive award relates; provided,
that to the extent Executive’s cash incentive award for the calendar year in which Executive’s termination occurs (i) is intended to be “qualified performance-based compensation” (within the meaning of

satisfied in full and (ii) is not intended to be “qualified performance-based compensation” (within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code), any qualitative performance criteria applicable to such bonus shall be deemed
satisfied in full;

Section 12.7 and shall include any amounts due prior thereto; provided, further, that to the extent any such termination occurs during the twenty-four- (24-) month period following a Change in Control, Executive shall have

(30-) month period Executive shall be required to pay the full cost of the amount for such coverage (both employee and employer) on an after-tax basis and, if permitted under applicable law, as determined in good faith by Cedar Fair, Cedar Fair
shall reimburse Executive for the payments on a monthly basis. and

where the Company conducts its Business; 
 provided; however, that the restrictions set forth in this Section 8.2(b) shall
cease upon the expiration of the Noncompetition Period. 
 8.3 Assignment of Inventions. 

(a) Executive agrees that during employment with the Company, any and all inventions, discoveries, innovations, writings, domain names,
improvements, trade secrets, designs, drawings, formulas, business processes, secret processes and know-how, whether or not patentable or a copyright or trademark, which Executive may create, conceive, develop or make, either alone or in conjunction
with others and related or in any way connected with the Company’s strategic plans, products, processes or apparatus or the Business (collectively, “Inventions”), shall be fully and promptly disclosed to the Company and shall
be the sole and exclusive property of the Company as against Executive or any of Executive’s assignees. Regardless of the status of Executive’s employment by the Company, Executive and Executive’s heirs, assigns and representatives
shall promptly assign to the Company any and all right, title and interest in and to such Inventions made during employment with the Company. 
 (b) Whether during or after the Employment Period, Executive further agrees to execute and acknowledge all papers and to do, at the Company’s expense, any and all other things necessary for or
incident to the applying for, obtaining and maintaining of such letters patent, copyrights, trademarks or other intellectual property rights, as the case may be, and to execute, on request, all papers necessary to assign and transfer such
Inventions, copyrights, patents, patent applications and other intellectual property rights to the Company and its successors and assigns. In the event that the Company is unable, after reasonable efforts and, in any event, after ten
(10) business days, to secure Executive’s signature on a written assignment to the Company, of any application for letters patent, trademark registration or to any common law or statutory copyright or other property right therein, whether
because of Executive’s physical or mental incapacity, or for any other reason whatsoever, Executive irrevocably designates and appoints the Secretary of the Company as Executive’s attorney-in-fact to act on Executive’s behalf to
execute and file any such applications and to do all lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution or issuance of such assignments, letters patent, copyright or trademark. 

8.4 Return of Company Property. Within ten (10) days following the date of any termination of Executive’s employment,
Executive or Executive’s personal representative shall return all property of the Company in Executive’s possession, including but not limited to all Company-owned computer equipment (hardware and software), telephones, facsimile machines,
smart phones, cell phones, tablet computer and other communication devices, credit cards, office keys, security access cards, badges, identification cards and all copies (including drafts) of 

  
 12 

 
any documentation or information (however stored) relating to the Business, the Company’s customers and clients or its prospective customers and clients. Anything to the contrary
notwithstanding, Executive shall be entitled to retain (i) personal papers and other materials of a personal nature, provided that such papers or materials do not include Confidential Information, (ii) information showing Executive’s
compensation or relating to reimbursement of expenses, and (iii) copies of plans, programs and agreements relating to Executive’s employment, or termination thereof, with the Company which he received in Executive’s capacity as a
participant. 
 8.5 Resignation as an Officer and Director. Upon any termination of Executive’s employment,
Executive shall be deemed to have resigned, to the extent applicable as an officer of the Company, a member of the board of directors or similar body of any of Cedar Fair, L.P.’s Affiliates and as a fiduciary of any Company benefit plan. On or
immediately following the date of any termination of Executive’s employment, Executive shall confirm the foregoing by submitting to the Company in writing a confirmation of Executive’s resignation(s). 

8.6 Cooperation. During and following the Employment Period, Executive shall give Executive’s assistance and cooperation
willingly, upon reasonable advance notice (which shall include due regard to the extent reasonably feasible for Executive’s employment obligations and prior commitments), in any matter relating to Executive’s position with the Company, or
Executive’s knowledge as a result thereof as the Company may reasonably request, including Executive’s attendance and truthful testimony where deemed appropriate by the Company, with respect to any investigation or the Company’s
defense or prosecution of any existing or future claims or litigations or other proceeding relating to matters in which he was involved or had knowledge by virtue of Executive’s employment with the Company. The Company will reimburse Executive
for reasonable out-of-pocket travel costs and expenses incurred by him (in accordance with Company policy) as a result of providing such assistance, upon the submission of the appropriate documentation to the Company. 

8.7 Non-Disparagement. During his employment with the Company and at any time thereafter, Executive agrees not to disparage or
encourage or induce others to disparage the Company, any of its respective employees that were employed during Executive’s employment with the Company or any of its respective past and present, officers, directors, products or services (the
“Company Parties”). For purposes of this Section 8.7, the term “disparage” includes, without limitation, comments or statements to the press, to the Company’s employees or to any individual or entity with
whom the Company has a business relationship (including, without limitation, any vendor, supplier, customer or distributor), or any public statement, that in each case is intended to, or can be reasonably expected to, materially damage any of the
Company Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 8.7 shall prevent Executive from making any truthful statement to the extent, but only to the extent (A) necessary with respect to any litigation, arbitration
or mediation involving this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the enforcement of this Agreement, in the forum in which such litigation, arbitration or mediation properly takes place or (B) required by law, legal process or by any court,
arbitrator, mediator or administrative or legislative body (including any committee thereof) with apparent jurisdiction over Executive. 

  
 13 

 8.8 Tolling. In the event of any violation of the provisions of this
Section 8, Executive acknowledges and agrees that the post-termination restrictions contained in this Section 8 shall be extended by a period of time equal to the period of such violation, it being the intention of the
parties hereto that the running of the applicable post-termination restriction period shall be tolled during any period of such violation. 
 8.9 Survival. This Section 8 shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement or employment of Executive. 
 9. Remedies; Scope. 
 9.1 It is specifically understood and agreed
that any breach of the provisions of Section 8 of this Agreement is likely to result in irreparable injury to the Company and that the remedy at law alone will be an inadequate remedy for such breach, and that in addition to any other
remedy it may have in the event of a breach or threatened breach of Section 8 above, the Company shall be entitled to enforce the specific performance of this Agreement by Executive and to seek both temporary and permanent injunctive
relief (to the extent permitted by law) without bond and without liability should such relief be denied, modified or violated. Furthermore, in the event of any breach of the provisions of Section 8.2 above or a material and willful
breach of any other provision in Section 8 above (the “Forfeiture Criteria”), the Company shall be entitled to cease making any severance payments being made hereunder, and in the event of a final, nonappealable
determination by a federal or state court of competent jurisdiction that a breach of any provision of Section 8 above has occurred, if such breach of Section 8 above satisfies the Forfeiture Criteria and occurs while
Executive is receiving severance payments in accordance with Section 6 above (regardless whether the Company discovers such breach during such period of severance payment or anytime thereafter), the Company shall be entitled to recover
any severance payments made to Executive. 
 9.2 Scope. Executive has carefully considered the nature and extent of the
restrictions upon Executive and the rights and remedies conferred upon the Company under Section 8 and Section 9.1, and hereby acknowledges and agrees that the same are reasonable and necessary in time and territory, are
intended to eliminate competition which otherwise would be unfair to the Company, do not stifle the inherent skill and experience of Executive, would not operate as a bar to Executive’s sole means of support, are fully required to protect the
business interests of the Company, and do not confer a benefit upon the Company disproportionate to the detriment to Executive. 
 10.
Severable Provisions. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and the invalidity of any one or more provisions shall not affect the validity of any other provision. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction shall
determine that any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof is unenforceable in whole or in part because of the duration or scope thereof, the parties hereto agree that said court in making such determination shall have the power to
reduce the duration and scope of such provision to the extent necessary to make it enforceable, and that the Agreement in its reduced form shall be valid and enforceable to the full extent permitted by law. 

  
 14 

 11. Notices. All notices hereunder, to be effective, shall be in writing and shall be deemed

12. Miscellaneous. 

12.1 Executive Representation. Executive hereby represents to the Company that the execution and delivery of this Agreement by
Executive and the Company and the performance by Executive of Executive’s duties hereunder shall not constitute a breach of, or otherwise contravene, or be prevented, interfered with or hindered by, the terms of any employment agreement or
other agreement or policy to which Executive is a party or otherwise bound, and further that Executive is not subject to any limitation on his activities on behalf of the Company as a result of agreements into which Executive has entered except for
obligations of confidentiality with former employers. To the extent this representation and warranty is not true and accurate, it shall be treated as a Cause event and the Company may terminate Executive for Cause or not permit Executive to commence
employment. 
 12.2 No Mitigation; Offset. 
 (a) No Mitigation. In the event of any termination of Executive’s employment hereunder, Executive shall be under no obligation to seek other employment or otherwise mitigate the obligations of
the Company under this Agreement. 
 (b) Offset. To the extent that following Executive’s termination of employment
with the Company, Executive becomes employed by or provides consultation services to any natural person, partnership, corporation, limited liability company, business trust, joint stock company, trust, unincorporated association, joint venture,
governmental entity, or other entity or organization (each, a “Person”) during any period, if any, in which the Company may be obligated, pursuant to Section 6.3 of this Agreement, to pay or provide to Executive
compensation or benefits following such termination of employment, 
 (i) Executive shall immediately notify the Company of any
Person for whom Executive works or provides services; 

  
 15 

 (ii) Executive shall promptly provide to the Company copies of all pay statements (or
similar statements) received from any such Person, or, if no such statements are available, a true, correct and complete description of any payments Executive is receiving; and 

(iii) in addition to any other rights the Company may have pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, the Company shall be
entitled to offset any compensation or benefits, if any, which the Company may be obligated, pursuant to Section 6.3 of this Agreement, to pay or provide to Executive following such termination of employment by the compensation,
consultant’s and/or other fees (excluding any such fees received by Executive in connection with his participation on the board of directors of any Person in which Executive is a member of such Person’s board of directors as of immediately
prior to his termination of employment with the Company) being paid to Executive during the same period; provided, that any such offset shall, in each case, be applied to the next dollars due to Executive from the Company during the
applicable period and provided further that such offset is permitted under Code Section 409A and other applicable law. 
 12.3 Entire Agreement; Amendment. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and as further set forth in the grant agreement of any equity awards, this Agreement constitutes the entire Agreement
between the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof, superseding all prior understandings, term sheets and agreements, whether written or oral. This Agreement may not be amended or revised except by a writing signed by the parties.

 12.4 Assignment and Transfer. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding on and shall inure to the benefit of
the Company and any successor in interest to the Company who acquires all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, duties or obligations of Executive shall be assignable by Executive, nor shall
any of the payments required or permitted to be made to Executive by this Agreement be encumbered, transferred or in any way anticipated, except as required by applicable laws. All rights of Executive under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit
of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal or legal representatives, estates, executors, administrators, heirs and beneficiaries. 
 12.5 Waiver of Breach. A waiver by either party of any breach of any provision of this Agreement by the other party shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach
by the other party. 
 12.6 Reporting and Withholding. The Company shall be entitled to report all income and withhold
from any amounts to be paid or benefits provided to Executive hereunder any federal, state, local or foreign income tax withholding, FICA contributions, Medicare contributions, or other taxes, charges or deductions which it is from time to time
required to withhold or that Executive has authorized the Company to withhold. The Company shall be entitled to rely on an opinion of counsel if any question as to the amount or requirement of any such withholding shall arise. 

12.7 Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement: 

(a) The parties agree that this Agreement shall be interpreted to comply with or, to the extent possible, be exempt from Section 409A
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, 

  
 16 

 
as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder to the extent applicable (collectively “Code Section 409A”), and all
provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Code Section 409A. Except to the extent attributable to a breach of this Agreement by the Company, in no event
whatsoever will the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on Executive under Code Section 409A or any damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A. 

(b) A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the
payment of any amounts or benefits considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the
meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.” If Executive is
deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered nonqualified deferred
compensation under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” if no exemption or exclusion from Section 409 (A) is determined to apply, such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided until
the date which is the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of such “separation from service” of Executive, and (ii) the date of Executive’s death (the “Delay
Period”). Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 12.7(b) (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such
delay) shall be paid or reimbursed on the first business day following the expiration of the Delay Period to Executive in a lump sum with interest at the prime rate during the Delay Period, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this
Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates and in the normal payment forms specified for them herein. 
 (c) With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Code Section 409A, (i) the right to reimbursement or
in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for
reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, to be provided in any other taxable year, provided that this clause (ii) shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Internal Revenue Code
Section 105(b) solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect and (iii) such payments shall be made on or before the last day of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable
year in which the expense occurred. 
 (d) For purposes of Code Section 409A, Executive’s right to receive any
installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g.,
“payment shall be made within thirty (30) days following the date of termination”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company, unless provided otherwise herein.

  
 17 

 12.8 Arbitration. 

(a) Executive and Cedar Fair agree that, except as provided in Section 12.8(h) below, any dispute, claim, or controversy between
them, including without limitation disputes, claims, or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or Executive’s employment with Cedar Fair or the termination of that employment, shall be settled exclusively by final and
binding arbitration. Judgment upon the award of the arbitrators may be entered and enforced in any federal or state court having jurisdiction over the parties. Executive and Cedar Fair expressly acknowledge that this agreement to arbitrate applies
without limitation to any disputes, claims or controversies between them, including without limitation claims of unlawful discrimination (including without limitation claims under Title VII, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Americans
with Disabilities Act and all amendments to those statutes, as well as state anti-discrimination statutes), harassment, whistleblowing, retaliation, wrongful discharge, constructive discharge, claims related to the payment of wages or benefits,
contract claims, and tort claims under federal, state, or local law, whether created by statute or the common law. By agreeing to submit any and all claims to arbitration (except as set forth in Section 12.8(h) below), Executive and Cedar Fair
expressly waive any right that they may have to resolve any disputes, claims, or controversies through any other means, including a jury trial or bench trial. 
 (b) The arbitration shall be conducted by a panel of three (3) arbitrators in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) except as
provided in this Agreement. Within twenty (20) days after notice from one party to the other of the notifying party’s election to arbitrate, each party shall select one (1) arbitrator. Within twenty (20) days after the selection
of the two (2) arbitrators by the parties, said arbitrators shall in turn select a third arbitrator. If the two (2) arbitrators cannot agree upon the selection of a third arbitrator, the parties agree that the third arbitrator shall be
appointed by the AAA in accordance with AAA’s arbitrator selection procedures, including the provision of a list of potential arbitrators to both parties. Each member of the panel shall be a lawyer admitted to practice law for a minimum of 15
years. 
 (c) Executive and Cedar Fair waive their right to file any arbitration on a class or collective basis; both Executive
and Cedar Fair agree to file any arbitration only on an individual basis and agree not to file any arbitration as a representative of any class or group of others. Therefore, neither Executive nor Cedar Fair will seek to certify a class or
collective arbitration or otherwise seek to proceed in arbitration on a representative basis, and the arbitrators shall have no authority to conduct a proceeding as a class or collective action or to award any relief to a class of employees. Nor
shall Executive or Cedar Fair participate in any class or collective action involving claims covered by this Agreement, but instead shall arbitrate all claims covered by this Agreement on an individual basis. 

(d) The arbitration panel shall have authority to award any remedy or relief that an Ohio or federal court in Ohio could grant in
conformity with applicable law on the basis of the claims actually made in the arbitration. The arbitration panel shall not have the authority either to abridge or change substantive rights available under existing law. Notwithstanding the above,
any remedy for an alleged breach of the Agreement, wrongful discharge, or constructive discharge, or claims related to compensation and benefits will be governed solely by the applicable provisions of this Agreement, with no right to compensatory,

  
 18 

 
punitive, or equitable relief. Further notwithstanding the foregoing, given the nature of Executive’s position with Cedar Fair, the arbitrator shall not have the authority to order
reinstatement, and Executive waives any right to reinstatement to the full extent permitted by law. 
 (e) The arbitrator may
award attorneys’ fees and costs to the extent authorized by statute. The arbitration panel shall issue a written award listing the issues submitted by the parties, together with a succinct explanation of the manner in which the panel resolved
the issues. The costs of the arbitration panel shall be borne by the parties in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules of the AAA. 
 (f) All arbitration proceedings, including the arbitration panel’s decision and award, shall be confidential. Neither party shall disclose any information or evidence adduced by the other in the
arbitration proceedings, or the panel’s award except (i) to the extent that the parties agree otherwise in writing; (ii) as necessary in any subsequent proceedings between the parties, such as to enforce the arbitration award; or
(iii) as otherwise compelled by law. 
 (g) The terms of this arbitration Agreement are severable. The invalidity or
unenforceability of any provisions herein shall not affect the application of any other provisions. This Agreement to arbitrate shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. The claims, disputes, and controversies submitted to arbitration will
be governed by Ohio law and applicable federal law. The arbitrators shall have exclusive jurisdiction to decide questions concerning the interpretation and enforceability of this Agreement to arbitrate, including but not limited to questions of
whether the parties have agreed to arbitrate a particular claim, whether a binding contract to arbitrate has been entered into, and whether the Agreement to arbitrate is unconscionable or otherwise unenforceable; provided however, that it is
agreed that the arbitrators shall have no authority to decide any questions as to whether the waiver of class and collective actions is valid or enforceable and all questions of the validity or enforceability of the waiver shall be decided by a
court, not the arbitrators, and the court shall stay any arbitration that purports to proceed as a class or collective action or where the claimant in the arbitration seeks to otherwise act in a representative capacity. 

(h) The parties agree and acknowledge that the promises and agreements set forth in Sections 8.1 (Confidentiality) and 8.2
(Non-Competition) of this Agreement shall not be subject to the arbitration provisions set forth in this Section 12.8, but rather such claims may be brought in any federal or state court of competent jurisdiction. This Agreement to
arbitrate does not apply to claims arising under federal statutes that prohibit pre-dispute arbitration agreements. This Agreement to arbitrate does not preclude Executive from filing a claim or charge with a governmental administrative agency,
such as the National Labor Relations Board, the Department of Labor, and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, or from filing a workers’ compensation or unemployment compensation claim in a statutorily-specified forum. 

12.9 Code Section 280G. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Executive and Cedar Fair agree that
in no event shall the present value of all payments, distributions and benefits provided to Executive or for Executive’s benefit pursuant to 

  
 19 

 
the terms of this Agreement or otherwise which constitute a “parachute payment” when aggregated with other payments, distributions, and benefits which constitute “parachute
payments,” exceed two hundred ninety-nine percent (299%) of Executive’s “base amount.” As used herein, “parachute payment” has the meaning ascribed to it in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, without regard to
Code Section 280G(b)(2)(A)(ii); and “base amount” has the meaning ascribed to it in Code Section 280G and the regulations thereunder. If the “present value” as defined in Code Sections 280G (d)(4) and 1274(b)(2), of
such aggregate “parachute payments” exceeds the 299% limitation set forth herein, such payments, distributions and benefits shall be reduced by Cedar Fair in accordance with the order of priority set forth below so that such reduced amount
will result in no portion of the payments, distributions and benefits being subject to excise tax. Such payments, distributions and benefits will be reduced by Cedar Fair in accordance with the following order of priority (A) reduction of cash
payments; (B) cancellation of accelerated vesting of unit awards; and (C) reduction of employee benefits. If acceleration of vesting of unit award compensation is to be reduced, such acceleration of vesting shall be cancelled in the
reverse order of the date of grant of the Executive’s unit awards. 
 12.10 Indemnification; Liability Insurance. To
the extent provided in the Company’s Code of Regulations and Certificate of Incorporation, the Company shall indemnify Executive for losses or damages incurred by Executive as a result of all causes of action arising from Executive’s
performance of duties for the benefit of the Company, whether or not the claim is asserted during the Employment Period. Executive shall be provided with the same level of directors and officers liability insurance coverage provided to other
directors and officers of the Company on the same terms and conditions applicable to such other directors and officers. 
 12.11
Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed under and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof. 

12.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and
shall have the same effect as if the signatures hereto and thereto were on the same instrument. 
 12.13 Compliance with
Dodd-Frank. The Company and the Executive acknowledge and agree that it is the intent of both parties that this Agreement comply with all applicable laws, including, without limitation, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection
Act. In accordance with the foregoing sentence, the Company and Executive agree to enter into any amendments to this Agreement from time to time, as may be necessary to comply with all applicable laws, including, without limitation, any
incentive compensation policy established from time to time by the Company to comply with Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

 Exhibit A 
 RELEASE AGREEMENT 
 This RELEASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated
            , 201    , is made and entered into by and between Cedar Fair, L.P., a publicly traded Delaware limited partnership, Cedar Fair Management, Inc., an Ohio
Corporation (“Cedar Fair Management”), Magnum Management Corporation, an Ohio corporation (“Magnum”) and
                     (the “Employee”). 
 WHEREAS, Cedar Fair, L.P. is affiliated with several corporations and partnerships including, without limitation, Cedar Fair Management and Magnum (collectively, “Cedar Fair” or the
“Company”); 
 WHEREAS, the Company and the Employee previously entered into an Employment Agreement dated
                     (the “Employment Agreement”); and 
 WHEREAS, the Employee’s employment with Magnum and the Company has terminated effective                  ,
20    . 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual agreements contained herein and in
the Employment Agreement, the Company and the Employee agree as follows: 
 1. General Release and Waiver of Claims. 

a. In consideration of Employee’s right to receive the severance payments and benefits set forth in Sections [6.1(b), (d), and
(e)]1/[Sections 6.1(d) and the last sentence of 6.2 ]2/[Sections 6.1 (e) and 6.3(y)]3 of the Employment Agreement, the Employee, on behalf of himself and his heirs, executors, administrators, trustees, legal representatives, successors and
assigns (hereinafter collectively referred to for purposes of this Section 1 as “Employee”), hereby agrees to irrevocably and unconditionally waive, release and forever discharge the Company and its past, present and future
affiliates and related entities, parent and subsidiary corporations, divisions, shareholders, predecessors, current, former and future officers, directors, employees, trustees, fiduciaries, administrators, executives, agents, representatives,
successors and assigns (collectively, the “Company Released Parties”) from any and all waivable claims, charges, demands, sums of money, actions, rights, promises, agreements, causes of action, obligations and liabilities of any
kind or nature whatsoever, at law or in equity, whether known or unknown, existing or contingent, suspected or unsuspected, apparent or concealed, foreign or domestic (hereinafter collectively referred to as “claims”) which he has
now or in the future may claim to have against any or all of the Company Released Parties based upon or arising out of any facts, acts, conduct, omissions, transactions, occurrences, contracts, claims, events, causes, matters or things of any
conceivable kind or character existing or occurring or claimed to exist or to have occurred prior to the date of the Employee’s execution of this Agreement in any way whatsoever relating to or arising out of Employee’s employment with the
Company Released Parties or the termination thereof. Such claims include, without limitation, claims arising under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, 29 U.S.C. § 621 et seq.; Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42
U.S.C. § 2000e et seq.; the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, 42 U.S.C. § 12101 et seq.; the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, 29 U.S.C. § 2601 et seq.; the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, 29 U.S.C. § 1001 et seq.; the Equal Pay Act of 1963, 29 U.S.C. § 206(d); Section 806 of the Corporate and Criminal Fraud Accountability Act of 2002, 18 U.S.C. § 1681 et
seq.; the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. §1681 et seq.; any other federal, state or local statutory laws relating to employment, discrimination in 

 

	1	 References to be used in connection with a termination without Cause or for Good Reason or as a result of Disability. 

	2	 References to be used in connection with a termination as a result of death 

	3	References to be used in connection with a termination as a result of application of Section 6.3. 

 
employment, termination of employment, wages, benefits or otherwise; or any other federal, state or local constitution, statute, rule, or regulation, including, but not limited to, any ordinance
addressing fair employment practices; any claims for employment or reemployment by the Company Released Parties; any common law claims, including but not limited to actions in tort, defamation and breach of contract; any claim or damage arising out
of Employee’s employment with or separation from the Company Released Parties (including a claim for retaliation) under any common law theory or any federal, state or local statute or ordinance not expressly referenced above; and any and all
claims for counsel fees and cost. 
 b. To the fullest extent permitted by law, and subject to the provisions of Section 1.d
and 1.e below, Employee represents and affirms that he has not filed or caused to be filed on his behalf any claim for relief against any of the Company Released Parties or any releasee and, to the best of his knowledge and belief, no outstanding
claims for relief have been filed or asserted against the Company Released Parties or any releasee on his behalf. 
 c. In
waiving and releasing any and all waivable claims whether or not now known, Employee understands that this means that, if he later discovers facts different from or in addition to those facts currently known by him, or believed by him to be true,
the waivers and releases of this Agreement will remain effective in all respects — despite such different or additional facts and his later discovery of such facts, even if he would not have agreed to this Agreement if he had prior knowledge of
such facts. 
 d. Nothing in this Section 1, or elsewhere in this Agreement, prevents or prohibits Employee from filing a
claim with a government agency, such as the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, that is responsible for enforcing a law on behalf of the government. However, Employee understands that, because Employee is waiving and releasing, among other
things, any and all claims for monetary damages and any other form of personal relief (per Section 1.a above), Employee may only seek and receive non-monetary forms of relief through any such claim. 

e. Nothing in this Section 1, or elsewhere in this Agreement, is intended as, or shall be deemed or operate as, a release by the
Employee (i) of any claims for payments to which the Employee is entitled under the express language of section 6 of the Employment Agreement, (ii) of any claims for vested benefits (e.g., medical or 401(k) benefits) and (iii) of any
right that the Employee had immediately prior to his termination of employment to be indemnified by any Company Released Party or to coverage under any directors and officers insurance policy and any run-off policy thereto. 

2. No Admission of Liability. It is understood that nothing in this Agreement is to be construed as an admission on behalf of the Company Released
Parties of any wrongdoing with respect to the Employee, any such wrongdoing being expressly denied. 
  

	3.	Acknowledgement of Waiver and Release of Claims Under ADEA. 

 a. The Employee acknowledges that, pursuant to Section 1 hereof, he is agreeing to waive and release any claims he may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967
(“ADEA”) and that he is doing so knowingly and voluntarily. The Employee also acknowledges that the consideration given for the ADEA waiver and release under this Agreement is in addition to anything of value to which the Employee
was already entitled. The Employee further acknowledges that he has been advised by the Company, as required by the ADEA, that: 

i. the ADEA waiver and release contained in this Agreement does not apply to any rights or claims that may arise after the date he signs
this Agreement; 

 ii. he should consult with an attorney prior to signing this Agreement (although he may
choose voluntarily not to do so); 
 iii. he has twenty-one (21) days within which to consider this Agreement (although he
may choose voluntarily to sign it earlier); 
 iv. he has seven (7) days following the date he signs this Agreement to
revoke this Agreement by delivering a written notice of such revocation to [PERSON/ADDRESS]; and 
 v. this Agreement shall not
become effective or enforceable until the first day following the end of the seven-day revocation period; provided that the Employee has signed, returned and not revoked this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof. 

b. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Employee from challenging or seeking a determination in good faith of the validity of the
ADEA waiver and release contained in this Agreement, nor does it prevent the Employee from filing a charge with the EEOC to enforce the ADEA, nor does it impose any condition precedent, penalties or costs for doing so, unless specifically authorized
by federal law. 
 4. Miscellaneous. 
 a. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Ohio without giving effect to its conflict of laws principles. 

b. Consent to Jurisdiction. Any action by the parties hereto related to this Agreement may be instituted in any state or federal
court having proper subject matter jurisdiction located within the State of Ohio, or in any other court in which jurisdiction is otherwise proper. Accordingly, the Company and the Employee irrevocably and unconditionally (a) submit to the
jurisdiction of any such court and (b) waive (i) any objection to the laying of venue of any such action brought in such court and (ii) any claim that any such action brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient
forum. 
 c. Prior Agreements. Unless stated otherwise expressly herein, the terms and conditions of the Employment
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. 
 d. Construction. There shall be no presumption that any ambiguity in
this Agreement should be resolved in favor of one party hereto and against another party hereto. Any controversy concerning the construction of this Agreement shall be decided neutrally without regard to authorship. 

e. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed will be deemed to be an
original, and such counterparts will, when executed by the parties hereto, together constitute but one agreement. Facsimile and electronic signatures shall be deemed to be the equivalent of manually signed originals.

remain subject to Sections 8 and 9 of this Agreement; however, no other provisions of this Agreement will remain in effect.

Executive’s best efforts (excepting vacation time, holidays, sick days and periods of disability) to Executive’s employment and service with the Company; provided, that this Section 2 shall not be interpreted as

or similar bodies of non-profit organizations, or (iv) subject

the calendar year following the end of the calendar year to which such cash bonus relates. Executive shall not be paid any cash bonus with respect to a calendar year unless Executive is employed with the Company on the last day of the calendar year

payment would have been made to the Executive based upon the restated financial results. In each such instance, the Company will, to the extent practicable, seek to recover from Executive the amount by which Executive’s Incentive Compensation
for the relevant period exceeded the lower payment that would have been made based on the restated financial results and Executive shall be liable to repay the same.

Cause under this Section 5.4); 
 5.5 At the option of Executive for Good Reason (as provided in
Section 6.5); or 
 5.6 At the option of Executive for any or no reason, on sixty (60) days prior written notice

6. Severance Payments. 
 6.1 Termination Without Cause, Disability or Resignation for Good Reason. If Executive’s employment is terminated at any time during the Employment Period by the Company without Cause (and not

payroll date following the sixtieth (60th) day after Executive’s termination. The first payment shall include payment of any amounts that would otherwise be due prior thereto. To the extent any such termination of employment occurs during
the twenty-four- (24-) month period following a Change in Control such amount shall be two and one-half (2-1/2) times annual “Cash Compensation” for the year preceding the calendar year in which the Change in Control of Cedar Fair
occurred, less one United States dollar (US $1.00); and payment shall be made in a lump sum on the next regularly scheduled payroll date following the sixtieth (60th) day after Executive’s termination; provided further that to
the extent any such termination of employment occurs pursuant to Section 5.2 (Disability), monetary payments actually received by the Executive from a bona fide short-term or long-term disability plan maintained by the Company shall be used to
reduce any payment made by the Company pursuant to this provision on a dollar for dollar basis; provided that: (i) the disability plan payments qualify as “disability pay” under Treasury Regulation
Section 31.3121(v)(2)-1(b)(4)(iv)(C) (ii) such reduction does not otherwise affect the time of payment of such Base Salary or the provision of benefits; (iii) the disability plan covers a

  
 4 

 
substantial number of employees and, was in effect before Executive became Disabled; and (iv) any subsequent amendment of such plan or any change in the benefits payable under such plan

 c) any cash incentive award earned with respect to a calendar year ending on or prior to the date of such termination of employment but unpaid as of such date, shall be payable at the same time such
payment would be made if Executive continued to be employed by the Company; 
 (d) a pro-rata portion of Executive’s cash
incentive award for the calendar year in which Executive’s termination of employment occurs (determined by multiplying the amount of such Cash Bonus, which would be due for the full calendar year by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
number of days during the calendar year of termination that Executive is employed with the Company and the denominator of which is 365) based on actual performance and payable at the same time that other senior executives of the Company receive
bonus payments in respect of the calendar year in which such termination occurs, but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the end of the calendar year to which such cash incentive award relates; provided,
that to the extent Executive’s cash incentive award for the calendar year in which Executive’s termination occurs (i) is intended to be “qualified performance-based compensation” (within the meaning of
Section 162(m) of the Code (as defined in Section 12.7)), any qualitative performance criteria applicable to such bonus relating to the potential application of “negative discretion” in respect of such bonus shall be deemed
satisfied in full and (ii) is not intended to be “qualified performance-based compensation” (within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code), any qualitative performance criteria applicable to such bonus shall be deemed
satisfied in full; 
 (e) subject to Executive’s timely election of continuation coverage under the under Part 6 of Title I

offers medical benefits, provided that the first payment of any amount described in this Section 6.1(e) shall be paid following Executive’s termination of employment as described in Section 6.6 or
Section 12.7 and shall include any amounts due prior thereto; provided, further, that to the extent any such termination occurs during the twenty-four- (24-) month period following a Change in Control, Executive shall have
the right to continue medical and dental insurance coverage during the thirty- (30-) month period after the date of such termination pursuant to COBRA, and from the Executive’s termination of employment date through the end of such thirty-
(30-) month period Executive shall be required to pay the full cost of the amount for such coverage (both employee and employer) on an after-tax basis and, if permitted under applicable law, as determined in good faith by Cedar Fair, Cedar Fair
shall reimburse Executive for the payments on a monthly basis. and 

  
 5 

 (f) all other accrued amounts or accrued benefits due to Executive in accordance with the
Company’s benefit plans, programs or policies (other than severance).

further that if the sixty- (60-) day period begins in one calendar year and ends in a second calendar year, payments shall always be made in the second calendar year. Failure to timely execute and return such release or revocation thereof shall
be a waiver by Executive of Executive’s right to severance (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any amounts described in Sections 6.1(a), (c) and (f) hereof). In addition, severance shall be conditioned on
Executive’s compliance with Section 8 hereof as provided in Section 9 below.

plan or severance policy generally available to the Company’s employees or otherwise. 
 7. Reimbursement of Expenses.
Subject to Section 6.6 and Section 12.7, the Company shall reimburse Executive for reasonable and necessary expenses actually incurred by Executive directly in connection with the business and affairs of the Company and the
performance of Executive’s duties hereunder upon presentation of proper receipts or other proof of expenditure and in accordance with the guidelines and limitations established by the Company under the Company’s Travel and Entertainment
Policy as in effect from time to time; provided, that Executive shall present all such proper receipts or other proof of expenditure promptly following the date the expense was incurred, but in no event later than one week after the
date the expense was incurred, and reimbursement shall be made promptly thereafter. When traveling for Company business, Executive shall be subject to Company travel policies, including, without limitation, the Company’s Travel and
Entertainment Policy, in effect from time to time. 
 8. Restrictions on Activities of Executive. 

8.1 Confidentiality 
 (a) Executive acknowledges that it is the policy of the Company to maintain as secret and confidential all “Confidential Information” (as defined herein). The parties hereto recognize that the
services to be performed by Executive pursuant to this Agreement are special and unique, and that by reason of her employment by the Company after the Effective Date, Executive will acquire, or may have acquired, Confidential Information. Executive
recognizes that all such Confidential Information is and shall remain the sole property of the Company, free of any rights of Executive, and acknowledges that the Company has a vested interest in assuring that all such Confidential Information
remains secret and confidential. Therefore, in 

  
 9 

 
consideration of Executive’s employment with the Company pursuant to this Agreement, Executive agrees that at all times from and after the Effective Date, she will not, directly or
indirectly, disclose to any person, firm, company or other entity (other than the Company) any Confidential Information, except as specifically required in the performance of her duties hereunder, without the prior written consent of the Company,
except to the extent that (i) any such Confidential Information becomes generally available to the public, other than as a result of a breach by Executive of this Section 8.1 or by any other executive officer of the Company subject
to confidentiality obligations, or (ii) any such Confidential Information becomes available to Executive on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company, or its executive officers or advisors; provided, that such
source is not known by Executive to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with, or other obligation of secrecy to, the Company or another party. In addition, it shall not be a breach of the confidentiality obligations hereof if Executive is
required by law to disclose any Confidential Information; provided, that in such case, Executive shall (x) give the Company the earliest notice possible that such disclosure is or may be required and (y) cooperate with the
Company, at the Company’s expense, in protecting to the maximum extent legally permitted, the confidential or proprietary nature of the Confidential Information which must be so disclosed. The obligations of Executive under this
Section 8.1 shall survive any termination of this Agreement. During the Employment Period Executive shall exercise all due and diligent precautions to protect the integrity of the business plans, customer lists, statistical data and
compilation, agreements, contracts, manuals or other documents of the Company which embody the Confidential Information, and upon the expiration or the termination of the Employment Period, Executive agrees that all Confidential Information in her
possession, directly or indirectly, that is in writing or other tangible form (together with all duplicates thereof) will forthwith be returned to the Company and will not be retained by Executive or furnished to any person, either by sample,
facsimile film, audio or video cassette, electronic data, verbal communication or any other means of communication. Executive agrees that the provisions of this Section 8.1 are reasonably necessary to protect the proprietary rights of
the Company in the Confidential Information and its trade secrets, goodwill and reputation. 
 (b) For purposes hereof, the term
“Confidential Information” means all information developed or used by the Company relating to the “Business” (as herein defined), operations, employees, customers, suppliers and distributors of the Company, including, but
not limited to, customer lists, purchase orders, financial data, pricing information and price lists, business plans and market strategies and arrangements and any strategic plan, all books, records, manuals, advertising materials, catalogues,
correspondence, mailing lists, production data, sales materials and records, purchasing materials and records, personnel records, quality control records and procedures included in or relating to the Business or any of the assets of the Company and
all trademarks, copyrights and patents, and applications therefore, all trade secrets, inventions, processes, procedures, research records, market surveys and marketing know-how and other technical papers. The term “Confidential
Information” also includes any other information heretofore or hereafter acquired by the Company and deemed by it to be confidential. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Business” shall mean: (i) the business of
amusement and water parks; (ii) leisure theme parks; (iii) any other business engaged in or being developed (including production of materials used in the Company’s businesses) by the Company, or being considered by the Company, at
the time of Executive’s termination, in each case, to the extent such business is primarily related to the business of amusement and water 

  
 10 

 
parks or leisure theme parks; and (iv) any joint venture, partnership or agency arrangements relating to the businesses described in (b)(i) through (iii) above. 

8.2 Non-Competition. 
 (a) Executive agrees that, during the Noncompetition Period, Executive will not: 

(i) directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, control or participate in the ownership, management or control of, or be connected as
an officer, employee, partner, consultant, contractor, director, or otherwise with, or have any financial interest in, or aid, consult, advise, or assist anyone else in the conduct of, any entity or business: 

(x) in which ten percent (10%) or more of whose annual revenues are derived from a Business as defined above; and 

(y) which conducts business in any locality or region of the United States or Ontario, Canada (whether or not such competing entity or
business is physically located in the United States or Canada), or any other area where Business is being conducted by the Company on the date Executive’s employment is terminated hereunder or in each and every area where the Company intends to
conduct such Business as it expresses such intent in the written strategic plan developed by the Company as of the date Executive’s employment is terminated hereunder; and 

(ii) either personally or by her agent or by letters, circulars or advertisements, and whether for himself or on behalf of any other
person, company, firm or other entity, except in her capacity as an executive of the Company, canvass or solicit, or enter into or effect (or cause or authorize to be solicited, entered into, or effected), directly or indirectly, for or on behalf of
himself or any other person, any business relating to the services of the type provided by, or orders for business or services similar to those provided by, the Company from any person, company, firm, or other entity who is, or has at any time
within two (2) years prior to the date of such action been, a customer or supplier of the Company; provided that the restrictions of Section 8.2(a)(i)(y) above shall also apply to any person, company, firm, or other entity
with whom the Company is specifically seeking to develop a relationship as a customer or supplier of the Company at the date of such action. 

Notwithstanding the forgoing, Executive’s ownership of securities of a public company engaged in competition with the Company not in excess of five
percent (5%) of any class of such securities shall not be considered a breach of the covenants set forth in this Section 8.1(a). 
 (b) Executive agrees that, at all times from after the Effective Date, Executive will not, either personally or by her agent or by letters, circulars or advertisements, and whether for himself or on
behalf of any other person, company, firm, or other entity, except in her capacity as an executive of the Company: 

  
 11 

 (i) seek to persuade any employee of the Company to discontinue her or her status or
employment therewith or to become employed in a business or activities likely to be competitive with the Business; or 
 (ii)
solicit or employ any such person at any time within twelve (12) months following the date of cessation of employment of such person with the Company, in any locality or region of the United States or Canada and in each and every other area
where the Company conducts its Business; 
 provided; however, that the restrictions set forth in this Section 8.2(b) shall
cease upon the expiration of the Noncompetition Period. 
 8.3 Assignment of Inventions. 

(a) Executive agrees that during employment with the Company, any and all inventions, discoveries, innovations, writings, domain names,
improvements, trade secrets, designs, drawings, formulas, business processes, secret processes and know-how, whether or not patentable or a copyright or trademark, which Executive may create, conceive, develop or make, either alone or in conjunction
with others and related or in any way connected with the Company’s strategic plans, products, processes or apparatus or the Business (collectively, “Inventions”), shall be fully and promptly disclosed to the Company and shall
be the sole and exclusive property of the Company as against Executive or any of Executive’s assignees. Regardless of the status of Executive’s employment by the Company, Executive and Executive’s heirs, assigns and representatives
shall promptly assign to the Company any and all right, title and interest in and to such Inventions made during employment with the Company. 
 (b) Whether during or after the Employment Period, Executive further agrees to execute and acknowledge all papers and to do, at the Company’s expense, any and all other things necessary for or
incident to the applying for, obtaining and maintaining of such letters patent, copyrights, trademarks or other intellectual property rights, as the case may be, and to execute, on request, all papers necessary to assign and transfer such
Inventions, copyrights, patents, patent applications and other intellectual property rights to the Company and its successors and assigns. In the event that the Company is unable, after reasonable efforts and, in any event, after ten
(10) business days, to secure Executive’s signature on a written assignment to the Company, of any application for letters patent, trademark registration or to any common law or statutory copyright or other property right therein, whether
because of Executive’s physical or mental incapacity, or for any other reason whatsoever, Executive irrevocably designates and appoints the Secretary of the Company as Executive’s attorney-in-fact to act on Executive’s behalf to
execute and file any such applications and to do all lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution or issuance of such assignments, letters patent, copyright or trademark. 

8.4 Return of Company Property. Within ten (10) days following the date of any termination of Executive’s employment,
Executive or Executive’s personal representative shall return all property of the Company in Executive’s possession, including but not limited to all Company-owned computer equipment (hardware and software), telephones, facsimile machines,
smart phones, cell phones, tablet computer and other communication devices, credit cards, office keys, security access cards, badges, identification cards and all copies (including drafts) of 

  
 12 

 
any documentation or information (however stored) relating to the Business, the Company’s customers and clients or its prospective customers and clients. Anything to the contrary
notwithstanding, Executive shall be entitled to retain (i) personal papers and other materials of a personal nature, provided that such papers or materials do not include Confidential Information, (ii) information showing Executive’s
compensation or relating to reimbursement of expenses, and (iii) copies of plans, programs and agreements relating to Executive’s employment, or termination thereof, with the Company which she received in Executive’s capacity as a
participant. 
 8.5 Resignation as an Officer and Director. Upon any termination of Executive’s employment,
Executive shall be deemed to have resigned, to the extent applicable as an officer of the Company, a member of the board of directors or similar body of any of Cedar Fair, L.P.’s Affiliates and as a fiduciary of any Company benefit plan. On or
immediately following the date of any termination of Executive’s employment, Executive shall confirm the foregoing by submitting to the Company in writing a confirmation of Executive’s resignation(s). 

8.6 Cooperation. During and following the Employment Period, Executive shall give Executive’s assistance and cooperation
willingly, upon reasonable advance notice (which shall include due regard to the extent reasonably feasible for Executive’s employment obligations and prior commitments), in any matter relating to Executive’s position with the Company, or
Executive’s knowledge as a result thereof as the Company may reasonably request, including Executive’s attendance and truthful testimony where deemed appropriate by the Company, with respect to any investigation or the Company’s
defense or prosecution of any existing or future claims or litigations or other proceeding relating to matters in which she was involved or had knowledge by virtue of Executive’s employment with the Company. The Company will reimburse Executive
for reasonable out-of-pocket travel costs and expenses incurred by him (in accordance with Company policy) as a result of providing such assistance, upon the submission of the appropriate documentation to the Company. 

8.7 Non-Disparagement. During her employment with the Company and at any time thereafter, Executive agrees not to disparage or
encourage or induce others to disparage the Company, any of its respective employees that were employed during Executive’s employment with the Company or any of its respective past and present, officers, directors, products or services (the
“Company Parties”). For purposes of this Section 8.7, the term “disparage” includes, without limitation, comments or statements to the press, to the Company’s employees or to any individual or entity with
whom the Company has a business relationship (including, without limitation, any vendor, supplier, customer or distributor), or any public statement, that in each case is intended to, or can be reasonably expected to, materially damage any of the
Company Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 8.7 shall prevent Executive from making any truthful statement to the extent, but only to the extent (A) necessary with respect to any litigation, arbitration
or mediation involving this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the enforcement of this Agreement, in the forum in which such litigation, arbitration or mediation properly takes place or (B) required by law, legal process or by any court,
arbitrator, mediator or administrative or legislative body (including any committee thereof) with apparent jurisdiction over Executive. 

  
 13 

 8.8 Tolling. In the event of any violation of the provisions of this
Section 8, Executive acknowledges and agrees that the post-termination restrictions contained in this Section 8 shall be extended by a period of time equal to the period of such violation, it being the intention of the
parties hereto that the running of the applicable post-termination restriction period shall be tolled during any period of such violation. 
 8.9 Survival. This Section 8 shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement or employment of Executive. 
 9. Remedies; Scope. 
 9.1 It is specifically understood and agreed
that any breach of the provisions of Section 8 of this Agreement is likely to result in irreparable injury to the Company and that the remedy at law alone will be an inadequate remedy for such breach, and that in addition to any other
remedy it may have in the event of a breach or threatened breach of Section 8 above, the Company shall be entitled to enforce the specific performance of this Agreement by Executive and to seek both temporary and permanent injunctive
relief (to the extent permitted by law) without bond and without liability should such relief be denied, modified or violated. Furthermore, in the event of any breach of the provisions of Section 8.2 above or a material and willful
breach of any other provision in Section 8 above (the “Forfeiture Criteria”), the Company shall be entitled to cease making any severance payments being made hereunder, and in the event of a final, nonappealable
determination by a federal or state court of competent jurisdiction that a breach of any provision of Section 8 above has occurred, if such breach of Section 8 above satisfies the Forfeiture Criteria and occurs while
Executive is receiving severance payments in accordance with Section 6 above (regardless whether the Company discovers such breach during such period of severance payment or anytime thereafter), the Company shall be entitled to recover
any severance payments made to Executive. 
 9.2 Scope. Executive has carefully considered the nature and extent of the
restrictions upon Executive and the rights and remedies conferred upon the Company under Section 8 and Section 9.1, and hereby acknowledges and agrees that the same are reasonable and necessary in time and territory, are
intended to eliminate competition which otherwise would be unfair to the Company, do not stifle the inherent skill and experience of Executive, would not operate as a bar to Executive’s sole means of support, are fully required to protect the
business interests of the Company, and do not confer a benefit upon the Company disproportionate to the detriment to Executive. 
 10.
Severable Provisions. The provisions of this Agreement are severable and the invalidity of any one or more provisions shall not affect the validity of any other provision. In the event that a court of competent jurisdiction shall
determine that any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof is unenforceable in whole or in part because of the duration or scope thereof, the parties hereto agree that said court in making such determination shall have the power to
reduce the duration and scope of such provision to the extent necessary to make it enforceable, and that the Agreement in its reduced form shall be valid and enforceable to the full extent permitted by law. 

  
 14 

 11. Notices. All notices hereunder, to be effective, shall be in writing and shall be deemed
effective when delivered by hand or mailed by (a) certified mail, postage and fees prepaid, or (b) nationally recognized overnight express mail service, as follows:

 or to such other address as a party may notify the other pursuant to a notice given in accordance with this Section 11. 
 12. Miscellaneous. 
 12.1 Executive Representation. Executive
hereby represents to the Company that the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Executive and the Company and the performance by Executive of Executive’s duties hereunder shall not constitute a breach of, or otherwise contravene, or be
prevented, interfered with or hindered by, the terms of any employment agreement or other agreement or policy to which Executive is a party or otherwise bound, and further that Executive is not subject to any limitation on her activities on behalf
of the Company as a result of agreements into which Executive has entered except for obligations of confidentiality with former employers. To the extent this representation and warranty is not true and accurate, it shall be treated as a Cause event
and the Company may terminate Executive for Cause or not permit Executive to commence employment. 
 12.2 No Mitigation;
Offset. 
 (a) No Mitigation. In the event of any termination of Executive’s employment hereunder, Executive
shall be under no obligation to seek other employment or otherwise mitigate the obligations of the Company under this Agreement. 

(b) Offset. To the extent that following Executive’s termination of employment with the Company, Executive becomes employed by
or provides consultation services to any natural person, partnership, corporation, limited liability company, business trust, joint stock company, trust, unincorporated association, joint venture, governmental entity, or other entity or organization
(each, a “Person”) during any period, if any, in which the Company may be obligated, pursuant to Section 6.3 of this Agreement, to pay or provide to Executive compensation or benefits following such termination of
employment, 
 (i) Executive shall immediately notify the Company of any Person for whom Executive works or provides services;

  
 15 

 (ii) Executive shall promptly provide to the Company copies of all pay statements (or
similar statements) received from any such Person, or, if no such statements are available, a true, correct and complete description of any payments Executive is receiving; and 

(iii) in addition to any other rights the Company may have pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, the Company shall be
entitled to offset any compensation or benefits, if any, which the Company may be obligated, pursuant to Section 6.3 of this Agreement, to pay or provide to Executive following such termination of employment by the compensation,
consultant’s and/or other fees (excluding any such fees received by Executive in connection with her participation on the board of directors of any Person in which Executive is a member of such Person’s board of directors as of immediately
prior to her termination of employment with the Company) being paid to Executive during the same period; provided, that any such offset shall, in each case, be applied to the next dollars due to Executive from the Company during the
applicable period and provided further that such offset is permitted under Code Section 409A and other applicable law. 
 12.3 Entire Agreement; Amendment. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and as further set forth in the grant agreement of any equity awards, this Agreement constitutes the entire Agreement
between the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof, superseding all prior understandings, term sheets and agreements, whether written or oral. This Agreement may not be amended or revised except by a writing signed by the parties.

 12.4 Assignment and Transfer. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding on and shall inure to the benefit of
the Company and any successor in interest to the Company who acquires all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, duties or obligations of Executive shall be assignable by Executive, nor shall
any of the payments required or permitted to be made to Executive by this Agreement be encumbered, transferred or in any way anticipated, except as required by applicable laws. All rights of Executive under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit
of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal or legal representatives, estates, executors, administrators, heirs and beneficiaries. 
 12.5 Waiver of Breach. A waiver by either party of any breach of any provision of this Agreement by the other party shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach
by the other party. 
 12.6 Reporting and Withholding. The Company shall be entitled to report all income and withhold
from any amounts to be paid or benefits provided to Executive hereunder any federal, state, local or foreign income tax withholding, FICA contributions, Medicare contributions, or other taxes, charges or deductions which it is from time to time
required to withhold or that executive has authorized the Company to withhold. The Company shall be entitled to rely on an opinion of counsel if any question as to the amount or requirement of any such withholding shall arise. 

12.7 Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement: 

(a) The parties agree that this Agreement shall be interpreted to comply with or, to the extent possible, be exempt from Section 409A
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, 

  
 16 

 
as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder to the extent applicable (collectively “Code Section 409A”), and all
provisions of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Code Section 409A. Except to the extent attributable to a breach of this Agreement by the Company, in no event
whatsoever will the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on Executive under Code Section 409A or any damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A. 

(b) A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the
payment of any amounts or benefits considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the
meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.” If Executive is
deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered nonqualified deferred
compensation under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” if no exemption or exclusion from Section 409 (A) is determined to apply, such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided until
the date which is the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of such “separation from service” of Executive, and (ii) the date of Executive’s death (the “Delay
Period”). Upon the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 12.7(b) (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such
delay) shall be paid or reimbursed on the first business day following the expiration of the Delay Period to Executive in a lump sum with interest at the prime rate during the Delay Period, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this
Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates and in the normal payment forms specified for them herein. 
 (c) With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Code Section 409A, (i) the right to reimbursement or
in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for
reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, to be provided in any other taxable year, provided that this clause (ii) shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Internal Revenue Code
Section 105(b) solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect and (iii) such payments shall be made on or before the last day of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable
year in which the expense occurred. 
 (d) For purposes of Code Section 409A, Executive’s right to receive any
installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g.,
“payment shall be made within thirty (30) days following the date of termination”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company, unless provided otherwise herein.

  
 17 

 12.8 Arbitration. 

(a) Executive and Cedar Fair agree that, except as provided in Section 12.8(h) below, any dispute, claim, or controversy between
them, including without limitation disputes, claims, or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or Executive’s employment with Cedar Fair or the termination of that employment, shall be settled exclusively by final and
binding arbitration. Judgment upon the award of the arbitrators may be entered and enforced in any federal or state court having jurisdiction over the parties. Executive and Cedar Fair expressly acknowledge that this agreement to arbitrate applies
without limitation to any disputes, claims or controversies between them, including without limitation claims of unlawful discrimination (including without limitation claims under Title VII, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Americans
with Disabilities Act and all amendments to those statutes, as well as state anti-discrimination statutes), harassment, whistleblowing, retaliation, wrongful discharge, constructive discharge, claims related to the payment of wages or benefits,
contract claims, and tort claims under federal, state, or local law, whether created by statute or the common law. By agreeing to submit any and all claims to arbitration (except as set forth in Section 12.8(h) below), Executive and Cedar Fair
expressly waive any right that they may have to resolve any disputes, claims, or controversies through any other means, including a jury trial or bench trial. 
 (b) The arbitration shall be conducted by a panel of three (3) arbitrators in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) except as
provided in this Agreement. Within twenty (20) days after notice from one party to the other of the notifying party’s election to arbitrate, each party shall select one (1) arbitrator. Within twenty (20) days after the selection
of the two (2) arbitrators by the parties, said arbitrators shall in turn select a third arbitrator. If the two (2) arbitrators cannot agree upon the selection of a third arbitrator, the parties agree that the third arbitrator shall be
appointed by the AAA in accordance with AAA’s arbitrator selection procedures, including the provision of a list of potential arbitrators to both parties. Each member of the panel shall be a lawyer admitted to practice law for a minimum of 15
years. 
 (c) Executive and Cedar Fair waive their right to file any arbitration on a class or collective basis; both Executive
and Cedar Fair agree to file any arbitration only on an individual basis and agree not to file any arbitration as a representative of any class or group of others. Therefore, neither Executive nor Cedar Fair will seek to certify a class or
collective arbitration or otherwise seek to proceed in arbitration on a representative basis, and the arbitrators shall have no authority to conduct a proceeding as a class or collective action or to award any relief to a class of employees. Nor
shall Executive or Cedar Fair participate in any class or collective action involving claims covered by this Agreement, but instead shall arbitrate all claims covered by this Agreement on an individual basis. 

(d) The arbitration panel shall have authority to award any remedy or relief that an Ohio or federal court in Ohio could grant in
conformity with applicable law on the basis of the claims actually made in the arbitration. The arbitration panel shall not have the authority either to abridge or change substantive rights available under existing law. Notwithstanding the above,
any remedy for an alleged breach of the Agreement, wrongful discharge, or constructive discharge, or claims related to compensation and benefits will be governed solely by the applicable provisions of this Agreement, with no right to compensatory,

  
 18 

 
punitive, or equitable relief. Further notwithstanding the foregoing, given the nature of Executive’s position with Cedar Fair, the arbitrator shall not have the authority to order
reinstatement, and Executive waives any right to reinstatement to the full extent permitted by law. 
 (e) The arbitrator may
award attorneys’ fees and costs to the extent authorized by statute. The arbitration panel shall issue a written award listing the issues submitted by the parties, together with a succinct explanation of the manner in which the panel resolved
the issues. The costs of the arbitration panel shall be borne by the parties in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules of the AAA. 
 (f) All arbitration proceedings, including the arbitration panel’s decision and award, shall be confidential. Neither party shall disclose any information or evidence adduced by the other in the
arbitration proceedings, or the panel’s award except (i) to the extent that the parties agree otherwise in writing; (ii) as necessary in any subsequent proceedings between the parties, such as to enforce the arbitration award; or
(iii) as otherwise compelled by law. 
 (g) The terms of this arbitration Agreement are severable. The invalidity or
unenforceability of any provisions herein shall not affect the application of any other provisions. This Agreement to arbitrate shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. The claims, disputes, and controversies submitted to arbitration will
be governed by Ohio law and applicable federal law. The arbitrators shall have exclusive jurisdiction to decide questions concerning the interpretation and enforceability of this Agreement to arbitrate, including but not limited to questions of
whether the parties have agreed to arbitrate a particular claim, whether a binding contract to arbitrate has been entered into, and whether the Agreement to arbitrate is unconscionable or otherwise unenforceable; provided however, that it is
agreed that the arbitrators shall have no authority to decide any questions as to whether the waiver of class and collective actions is valid or enforceable and all questions of the validity or enforceability of the waiver shall be decided by a
court, not the arbitrators, and the court shall stay any arbitration that purports to proceed as a class or collective action or where the claimant in the arbitration seeks to otherwise act in a representative capacity. 

(h) The parties agree and acknowledge that the promises and agreements set forth in Sections 8.1 (Confidentiality) and 8.2
(Non-Competition) of this Agreement shall not be subject to the arbitration provisions set forth in this Section 12.8, but rather such claims may be brought in any federal or state court of competent jurisdiction. This Agreement to
arbitrate does not apply to claims arising under federal statutes that prohibit pre-dispute arbitration agreements. This Agreement to arbitrate does not preclude Executive from filing a claim or charge with a governmental administrative agency,
such as the National Labor Relations Board, the Department of Labor, and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, or from filing a workers’ compensation or unemployment compensation claim in a statutorily-specified forum. 

12.9 Code Section 280G. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Executive and Cedar Fair agree that
in no event shall the present value of all payments, distributions and benefits provided to Executive or for Executive’s benefit pursuant to 

  
 19 

 
the terms of this Agreement or otherwise which constitute a “parachute payment” when aggregated with other payments, distributions, and benefits which constitute “parachute
payments,” exceed two hundred ninety-nine percent (299%) of Executive’s “base amount.” As used herein, “parachute payment” has the meaning ascribed to it in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code, without regard to
Code Section 280G(b)(2)(A)(ii); and “base amount” has the meaning ascribed to it in Code Section 280G and the regulations thereunder. If the “present value” as defined in Code Sections 280G (d)(4) and 1274(b)(2), of
such aggregate “parachute payments” exceeds the 299% limitation set forth herein, such payments, distributions and benefits shall be reduced by Cedar Fair in accordance with the order of priority set forth below so that such reduced amount
will result in no portion of the payments, distributions and benefits being subject to excise tax. Such payments, distributions and benefits will be reduced by Cedar Fair in accordance with the following order of priority (A) reduction of cash
payments; (B) cancellation of accelerated vesting of unit awards; and (C) reduction of employee benefits. If acceleration of vesting of unit award compensation is to be reduced, such acceleration of vesting shall be cancelled in the
reverse order of the date of grant of the Executive’s unit awards. 
 12.10 Indemnification; Liability Insurance. To
the extent provided in the Company’s Code of Regulations and Certificate of Incorporation, the Company shall indemnify Executive for losses or damages incurred by Executive as a result of all causes of action arising from Executive’s
performance of duties for the benefit of the Company, whether or not the claim is asserted during the Employment Period. Executive shall be provided with the same level of directors and officers liability insurance coverage provided to other
directors and officers of the Company on the same terms and conditions applicable to such other directors and officers. 
 12.11
Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed under and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to the conflicts of law provisions thereof. 

12.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and
shall have the same effect as if the signatures hereto and thereto were on the same instrument. 
 12.13 Compliance with
Dodd-Frank. The Company and the Executive acknowledge and agree that it is the intent of both parties that this Agreement comply with all applicable laws, including, without limitation, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection
Act. In accordance with the foregoing sentence, the Company and Executive agree to enter into any amendments to this Agreement from time to time, as may be necessary to comply with all applicable laws, including, without limitation, any
incentive compensation policy established from time to time by the Company to comply with Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

 Exhibit A 
 RELEASE AGREEMENT 
 This RELEASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”)
dated            , 201        , is made and entered into by and between Cedar Fair, L.P., a publicly traded Delaware limited partnership, Cedar Fair
Management, Inc., an Ohio Corporation (“Cedar Fair Management”), Magnum Management Corporation, an Ohio corporation (“Magnum”) and
                 (the “Employee”). 
 WHEREAS, Cedar Fair, L.P. is affiliated with several corporations and partnerships including, without limitation, Cedar Fair Management and Magnum (collectively, “Cedar Fair” or the
“Company”); 
 WHEREAS, the Company and the Employee previously entered into an Employment Agreement dated
                     (the “Employment Agreement”); and 
 WHEREAS, the Employee’s employment with Magnum and the Company has terminated effective                  ,
20        . 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual agreements
contained herein and in the Employment Agreement, the Company and the Employee agree as follows: 
  

	1.	General Release and Waiver of Claims. 

 a. In consideration of Employee’s right to receive the severance payments and benefits set forth in Sections [6.1(b), (d), and (e)]1/[Sections 6.1(d) and the last sentence of 6.2 ]2/[Sections 6.1
(e) and 6.3(y)]3 of the Employment Agreement, the Employee, on behalf of himself and her heirs, executors, administrators, trustees, legal representatives, successors and assigns (hereinafter collectively referred to for purposes of this
Section 1 as “Employee”), hereby agrees to irrevocably and unconditionally waive, release and forever discharge the Company and its past, present and future affiliates and related entities, parent and subsidiary corporations,
divisions, shareholders, predecessors, current, former and future officers, directors, employees, trustees, fiduciaries, administrators, executives, agents, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Company Released
Parties”) from any and all waivable claims, charges, demands, sums of money, actions, rights, promises, agreements, causes of action, obligations and liabilities of any kind or nature whatsoever, at law or in equity, whether known or
unknown, existing or contingent, suspected or unsuspected, apparent or concealed, foreign or domestic (hereinafter collectively referred to as “claims”) which she has now or in the future may claim to have against any or all of the
Company Released Parties based upon or arising out of any facts, acts, conduct, omissions, transactions, occurrences, contracts, claims, events, causes, matters or things of any conceivable kind or character existing or occurring or claimed to exist
or to have occurred prior to the date of the Employee’s execution of this Agreement in any way whatsoever relating to or arising out of Employee’s employment with the Company Released Parties or the termination thereof. Such claims
include, without limitation, claims arising under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, 29 U.S.C. § 621 et seq.; Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e et seq.; the Americans with
Disabilities Act of 1990, 42 U.S.C. § 12101 et seq.; the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, 29 U.S.C. § 2601 et seq.; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, 29 U.S.C. § 1001 et
seq.; the Equal Pay Act of 1963, 29 U.S.C. § 206(d); Section 806 of the Corporate and Criminal Fraud Accountability Act of 2002, 18 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq.; the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. §1681
et seq.; any other federal, state or local statutory laws relating to employment, discrimination in

	2	 References to be used in connection with a termination as a result of death 

	3	 References to be used in connection with a termination as a result of application of Section 6.3.

 
employment, termination of employment, wages, benefits or otherwise; or any other federal, state or local constitution, statute, rule, or regulation, including, but not limited to, any ordinance
addressing fair employment practices; any claims for employment or reemployment by the Company Released Parties; any common law claims, including but not limited to actions in tort, defamation and breach of contract; any claim or damage arising out
of Employee’s employment with or separation from the Company Released Parties (including a claim for retaliation) under any common law theory or any federal, state or local statute or ordinance not expressly referenced above; and any and all
claims for counsel fees and cost. 
 b. To the fullest extent permitted by law, and subject to the provisions of Section 1.d
and 1.e below, Employee represents and affirms that she has not filed or caused to be filed on her behalf any claim for relief against any of the Company Released Parties or any releasee and, to the best of her knowledge and belief, no outstanding
claims for relief have been filed or asserted against the Company Released Parties or any releasee on her behalf. 
 c. In
waiving and releasing any and all waivable claims whether or not now known, Employee understands that this means that, if she later discovers facts different from or in addition to those facts currently known by him, or believed by him to be true,
the waivers and releases of this Agreement will remain effective in all respects — despite such different or additional facts and her later discovery of such facts, even if she would not have agreed to this Agreement if she had prior knowledge
of such facts. 
 d. Nothing in this Section 1, or elsewhere in this Agreement, prevents or prohibits Employee from filing a
claim with a government agency, such as the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, that is responsible for enforcing a law on behalf of the government. However, Employee understands that, because Employee is waiving and releasing, among other
things, any and all claims for monetary damages and any other form of personal relief (per Section 1.a above), Employee may only seek and receive non-monetary forms of relief through any such claim. 

e. Nothing in this Section 1, or elsewhere in this Agreement, is intended as, or shall be deemed or operate as, a release by the
Employee (i) of any claims for payments to which the Employee is entitled under the express language of section 6 of the Employment Agreement, (ii) of any claims for vested benefits (e.g., medical or 401(k) benefits) and (iii) of any
right that the Employee had immediately prior to her termination of employment to be indemnified by any Company Released Party or to coverage under any directors and officers insurance policy and any run-off policy thereto. 

2. No Admission of Liability. It is understood that nothing in this Agreement is to be construed as an admission on behalf of the Company Released
Parties of any wrongdoing with respect to the Employee, any such wrongdoing being expressly denied. 
  

	3.	Acknowledgement of Waiver and Release of Claims Under ADEA. 

 a. The Employee acknowledges that, pursuant to Section 1 hereof, she is agreeing to waive and release any claims she may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967
(“ADEA”) and that she is doing so knowingly and voluntarily. The Employee also acknowledges that the consideration given for the ADEA waiver and release under this Agreement is in addition to anything of value to which the Employee
was already entitled. The Employee further acknowledges that she has been advised by the Company, as required by the ADEA, that: 
 i. the ADEA waiver and release contained in this Agreement does not apply to any rights or claims that may arise after the date she signs this Agreement; 

 ii. he should consult with an attorney prior to signing this Agreement (although she may
choose voluntarily not to do so); 
 iii. he has twenty-one (21) days within which to consider this Agreement (although she
may choose voluntarily to sign it earlier); 
 iv. he has seven (7) days following the date she signs this Agreement to
revoke this Agreement by delivering a written notice of such revocation to [PERSON/ADDRESS]; and 
 v. this Agreement shall not
become effective or enforceable until the first day following the end of the seven-day revocation period; provided that the Employee has signed, returned and not revoked this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof. 

b. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Employee from challenging or seeking a determination in good faith of the validity of the
ADEA waiver and release contained in this Agreement, nor does it prevent the Employee from filing a charge with the EEOC to enforce the ADEA, nor does it impose any condition precedent, penalties or costs for doing so, unless specifically authorized
by federal law. 
  

	4.	Miscellaneous. 

 a.
Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Ohio without giving effect to its conflict of laws principles. 

b. Consent to Jurisdiction. Any action by the parties hereto related to this Agreement may be instituted in any state or federal
court having proper subject matter jurisdiction located within the State of Ohio, or in any other court in which jurisdiction is otherwise proper. Accordingly, the Company and the Employee irrevocably and unconditionally (a) submit to the
jurisdiction of any such court and (b) waive (i) any objection to the laying of venue of any such action brought in such court and (ii) any claim that any such action brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient
forum. 
 c. Prior Agreements. Unless stated otherwise expressly herein, the terms and conditions of the Employment
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. 
 d. Construction. There shall be no presumption that any ambiguity in
this Agreement should be resolved in favor of one party hereto and against another party hereto. Any controversy concerning the construction of this Agreement shall be decided neutrally without regard to authorship. 

e. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed will be deemed to be an
original, and such counterparts will, when executed by the parties hereto, together constitute but one agreement. Facsimile and electronic signatures shall be deemed to be the equivalent of manually signed originals. 

THE UNDERSIGNED HAVE CAREFULLY READ THE FOREGOING AGREEMENT, KNOW THE CONTENTS THEREOF, FULLY UNDERSTAND IT, AND SIGN THE SAME AS HER OR ITS OWN FREE
ACT.
