1.2    Incorporation of Terms of Plan. The Option is subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. In the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan will control, unless it is expressly specified in this Agreement or the Grant Notice that the specific provision of the Plan will not apply.

ARTICLE II.
PERIOD OF EXERCISABILITY
2.1    Commencement of Exercisability. The Option will vest and become exercisable according to the vesting schedule in the Grant Notice (the “Vesting Schedule”) except that any fraction of a Share as to which the Option would be vested or exercisable will be accumulated and will vest and become exercisable only when a whole vested Share has accumulated. Except as otherwise set forth in the Grant Notice, the Plan or this Agreement, and unless the Administrator otherwise determines, the Option will immediately expire and be forfeited as to any portion of the Option that is not vested and exercisable as of Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason (after taking into consideration any accelerated vesting and exercisability which may occur in connection with such Termination of Service, if any). 
2.2    Duration of Exercisability. The Vesting Schedule is cumulative. Any portion of the Option which vests and becomes exercisable will remain vested and exercisable until the Option expires. The Option will be forfeited immediately upon its expiration.

(d)    Except as the Administrator may otherwise approve, Participant’s Termination of Service for Cause.

ARTICLE III.
EXERCISE OF OPTION

3.2    Partial Exercise. Any exercisable portion of the Option or the entire Option, if then wholly exercisable, may be exercised, in whole or in part, according to the procedures in the Plan at any time prior to the time the Option or portion thereof expires, except that the Option may only be exercised for whole Shares.
3.3    Tax Withholding; Exercise Price. 
(a)    Payment of the exercise price and/or applicable withholding tax obligations with respect to the Option shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of Participant:

Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary makes any representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the grant, vesting or exercise of the Option or the subsequent sale of Shares. The Company and the Subsidiaries do not commit and are under no obligation to structure the Option to reduce or eliminate Participant’s tax liability.
3.4    Representation(a)    . Participant represents to the Company that Participant has reviewed with Participant’s own tax advisors the tax consequences of this Option and the transactions contemplated by the Grant Notice and this Agreement. Participant is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents.

By a notice given pursuant to this Section, either party may designate a different address for notices to be given to that party. Any notice will be deemed duly given when actually received, when sent by email, when sent by certified mail (return receipt requested) and deposited with postage prepaid in a post office or branch post office regularly maintained by the United States Postal Service (or any similar foreign entity), when delivered by a nationally recognized express shipping company or upon receipt of a facsimile transmission confirmation.
4.4    Titles. Titles are provided herein for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for interpretation or construction of this Agreement.
4.5    Conformity to Securities Laws. Participant acknowledges that the Plan, the Grant Notice and this Agreement are intended to conform to the extent necessary with all Applicable Laws and, to the extent Applicable Laws permit, will be deemed amended as necessary to conform to Applicable Laws.
4.6    Successors and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under this Agreement to single or multiple assignees, and this Agreement will inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company.

4.7    Limitations Applicable to Section 16 Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement, if Participant is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the Plan, the Grant Notice, this Agreement and the Option will be subject to any additional limitations set forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule.

4.9    Severability. If any portion of the Grant Notice or this Agreement or any action taken under the Grant Notice or this Agreement, in any case is held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity will not affect the remaining parts of the Grant Notice and/or this Agreement (as applicable), and the Grant Notice and/or this Agreement (as applicable) will be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provisions had been excluded, and the illegal or invalid action will be null and void.

|US-DOCS\129038839.4||

4.10    Limitation on Participant’s Rights. Participation in the Plan confers no rights or interests other than as herein provided. This Agreement creates only a contractual obligation on the part of the Company as to amounts payable and may not be construed as creating a trust. Neither the Plan nor any underlying program, in and of itself, has any assets. Participant will have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to amounts credited and benefits payable, if any, with respect to the Option, and rights no greater than the right to receive the Shares as a general unsecured creditor with respect to the Option, as and when exercised pursuant to the terms hereof.
4.11    Rights as a Stockholder. Neither Participant nor any person claiming under or through Participant will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares (which may be in book-entry form) will have been issued and recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to Participant (including through electronic delivery to a brokerage account). Except as otherwise provided herein, after such issuance, recordation and delivery, Participant will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to such Shares, including, without limitation, the right to receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares. 
4.12    Not a Contract of Employment or Service. Nothing in the Plan, the Grant Notice or this Agreement confers upon Participant any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or any Subsidiary or interferes with or restricts in any way the rights of the Company and its Subsidiaries, which rights are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or terminate the services of Participant at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without Cause, except to the extent expressly provided otherwise by applicable law or in a written agreement between the Company or a Subsidiary and Participant. 
4.13    Counterparts. The Grant Notice may be executed in one or more counterparts, including by way of any electronic signature, subject to Applicable Law, each of which will be deemed an original and all of which together will constitute one instrument.
4.14    Incentive Stock Options. If the Option is designated as an Incentive Stock Option:
(a)    Participant acknowledges that to the extent the aggregate fair market value of shares (determined as of the time the option with respect to the shares is granted) with respect to which stock options intended to qualify as “incentive stock options” under Section 422 of the Code, including the Option, are exercisable for the first time by Participant during any calendar year exceeds $100,000 or if for any other reason such stock options do not qualify or cease to qualify for treatment as “incentive stock options” under Section 422 of the Code, such stock options (including the Option) will be treated as non-qualified stock options. Participant further acknowledges that the rule set forth in the preceding sentence will be applied by taking the Option and other stock options into account in the order in which they were granted, as determined under Section 422(d) of the Code. Participant also acknowledges that if the Option is exercised more than three (3) months after Participant’s Termination of Service, other than by reason of death or Disability, the Option will be taxed as a Non-Qualified Stock Option.
(b)    Participant will give prompt written notice to the Company of any disposition or other transfer of any Shares acquired under this Agreement if such disposition or other transfer is made (i) within two (2) years from the Grant Date or (ii) within one year after the transfer of such Shares to Participant. Such notice will specify the date of such disposition or other transfer and the amount realized, in cash, other property, assumption of indebtedness or other consideration, by Participant in such disposition or other transfer.
4.15    Governing Law. The Grant Notice and this Agreement will be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, disregarding any state’s choice-of-law principles requiring the application of a jurisdiction’s laws other than the State of Delaware.

Dear ___________,
This letter agreement (this “Letter Agreement”) memorializes our discussions and agreement concerning an amendment to the terms of the Executive Agreement (the “Executive Agreement”), dated as of ____________, 20__, by and between you and Dollar Tree, Inc. and each of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”).  
1.    Definitions.  Unless otherwise defined in this Letter Agreement, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Executive Agreement.  
2.    Amendment to Section 4.a. Section 4.a of the Executive Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows: 
a.    Continued Base Salary for twenty-four (24) months following the Separation Date, payable in equal installments in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices, which payments shall commence on the next scheduled payroll date after the effective date of the Release (“Salary Continuation Period”). In the event Executive accepts an offer of employment or an offer to provide services in a consulting or other capacity during the Salary Continuation Period, Executive agrees to so inform the Company within three (3) business days, at which time Salary Continuation payments under this Section 4.a shall cease.
3.    Amendment to Section 4.f. Section 4.f of the Executive Agreement is hereby amended and restated as follows: 
f.    The Company intends the amounts payable to Executive upon a termination of employment to be excepted from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) to the maximum extent permissible and that each payment hereunder shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.  To the extent that any payment hereunder is subject to Section 409A of the Code, it shall be administered in compliance with the requirements thereof.  To the extent required to avoid a violation of Section 409A of the Code, if the period between Executive’s termination of employment and the date on which the Release may become effective includes two calendar years, no payment under Section 4.a (or otherwise under this Agreement) shall be made until the second calendar year.  Further, to the extent required to avoid a violation of Section 409A of the Code, if Executive is a “specified employee” under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(i) and the regulations promulgated thereunder on the date of Executive’s termination of employment, then any payment under this Agreement shall be accumulated and paid without interest to Executive on the first business day of the seventh month following the date of Executive’s termination of employment.
