	 	Re:	EveryWare Global, Inc. (the “Company”)  

 Grant of Nonqualified Stock Option 
 Dear
[            ]: 
 The Company is pleased to advise you that its
Board of Directors (the “Board”) has granted to you a stock option (an “Option”), as provided below, under the 2012 EveryWare Global, Inc. Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”), a copy of which is attached
hereto and incorporated herein by reference. The Option has been granted, and the Option Shares will be issued, pursuant to a “compensatory benefit plan” within the meaning of such term under Rule 701 of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended. 
 1. Definitions. Each capitalized term used, but not defined, herein has the meaning ascribed to such term in
the Plan and for the purposes of this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings set forth below: 

“Company” shall mean EveryWare Global, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and (except to the extent the context requires
otherwise) any subsidiary corporation of EveryWare Global, Inc., as such term is defined in Section 424(f) of the Code. 

“Equity Securities” means (i) capital stock or other equity interests in the Company, (ii) obligations,
evidences of indebtedness, or other securities or interests convertible or exchangeable into capital stock of the Company or other equity interests in the Company, and (iii) warrants, options, or other rights to purchase or otherwise acquire
capital stock or other equity interests in the Company. 
 “MCP Investors” means, collectively, Monomoy Capital
Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, MCP Supplemental Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, Monomoy Executive Co-Investment Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, Monomoy Capital Partners II, L.P., a Delaware limited
partnership, and MCP Supplemental Fund II, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership. 
 “Net Sponsor Inflows” means
all Sponsor Inflows less all Sponsor Outflows. 
 “Option Shares” shall mean (i) all shares of
Class B Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of the Option and (ii) all shares of Class B Common Stock issued with 

 
respect to the Class B Common Stock referred to in clause (i) above by way of stock dividend or stock split or in connection with any conversion, merger, consolidation or recapitalization or
other reorganization affecting the Class B Common Stock. Option Shares shall continue to be Option Shares in the hands of any holder other than you (except for the Company or purchasers pursuant to a public offering under the Securities Act), and
each such transferee thereof shall succeed to the rights and obligations of a holder of Option Shares hereunder. 

“Sponsor Inflows” means, without duplication, as of the date of consummation of a Change of Control, all cash (excluding
management fees and expense reimbursements and similar payments and amounts payable in respect of indebtedness) received by the MCP Investors with respect to or in exchange for Equity Securities (whether such payments are received from the Company
or any third party) from the Effective Date (as defined in the Plan) through the date of consummation of such Change of Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Equity Securities are converted into equity securities of another Person (including
pursuant to any merger, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar transaction), such other equity securities shall not be treated as Sponsor Inflows and shall be treated as Equity Securities for all purposes of the definition of
“Sponsor Inflows.” 
 “Sponsor Outflows” means, without duplication, as of the date of consummation
of a Change of Control, all cash payments made and the fair market value of all other property contributed by (or on behalf of) the MCP Investors (on a cumulative basis) with respect to (including any contribution to the capital of the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries) or in exchange for any Equity Securities (whether such payments are made to the Company or any third party on behalf of the Company) from the Effective Date through the date of consummation of such Change of Control.

 “Type I Option Shares” means any Option Shares issuable upon exercise of the Type I Option. 

“Type II Option Shares” means any Option Shares issuable upon exercise of the Type II Option. 

2. Option. 
 (a) Terms. Your Option is for the purchase of up to [                ] shares of Class B Common Stock at a price per
share of $[        ] (the “Exercise Price”), payable upon exercise as set forth in Section 2(b) below and vesting as set forth in Section 3 below. Your Option shall expire at
the close of business on the date that is ten (10) years following the date hereof (the “Expiration Date”), subject to earlier expiration as provided in Section 3(c) below or upon termination of your employment as
provided in Section 4(b) below. Your Option to purchase [                ] shares of Class B Common Stock is referred to herein as your “Type I
Option” and your option to purchase [                ] shares of Class B Common Stock is referred to herein as your “Type II Option.” Your
Option is not intended to be an “incentive stock option” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code. 
 (b)
Payment of Option Price. Subject to Section 3 below, your Option may be exercised in whole or in part upon payment of an amount (the “Option Price”) equal to the

  
 -2-

 
product of (i) the Exercise Price multiplied by (ii) the number of Option Shares to be acquired. Payment shall be made in cash (including check, bank draft or money order) or, in the
discretion of the Committee, by delivery of a promissory note (if in accordance with policies approved by the Board) or via cashless exercise in accordance with the Plan. 
 3. Exercisability/Vesting. Your Option may be exercised only to the extent it has become vested. Your Type I Option is subject to vesting based upon your continued employment with the Company. Your
Type II Option is subject to vesting based upon your continued employment with the Company and upon the achievement of certain performance hurdles as further described in this Section 3. 

(a) Type I Option Vesting. Your Type I Option shall vest and become exercisable with respect to 20% of your Option Shares (rounded
to the nearest whole share) upon each of the first five anniversaries of the date hereof, if and only if you are at such time, and have been, continuously employed by the Company since the date hereof. 

(b) Type II Option Vesting. Your Type II Option shall vest and become exercisable upon the consummation of a Change of Control in
accordance with the following schedule, provided that you are and have been continuously employed by the Company or its Subsidiaries as of the date of such event. 
  

					
	 Net Sponsor Inflows Range
	  	Cumulative Percentage
of Type II Shares
that
Vest if Net Sponsor
Inflows Fall within
Corresponding Range	 
		
	 Less than $151,549,000.01
	  	 	0	% 
	 $151,549,000.01 to $189,590,999.99
	  	 	30	% 
	 $189,591,000.00 to $225,309,999.99
	  	 	65	% 
	 Greater than $225,309,999.99
	  	 	100	% 

 For the avoidance of doubt, each tranche of Type II Options corresponding to a particular dollar range of
Net Sponsor Inflows shall vest in full only upon the achievement of the applicable minimum Net Sponsor Inflows in such range and shall not be subject to any proportionate, pro rata or ‘straight-line’ vesting. 

(c) Effect on Vesting in Case of Employment Termination. Notwithstanding Sections 3(a) and 3(b) above, the following
special vesting rules shall apply if your employment with the Company terminates prior to the Expiration Date: 

(i) Death, Disability, Retirement. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, if you die or become subject to
any Disability while an employee of the Company or if you retire (with the approval of the Committee or the Board), then your Option shall be vested and become fully exercisable with respect to that portion of your Option that was vested and
exercisable on the date of your death, Disability or retirement. Any portion of your Option that was not vested and exercisable on the date of your death, Disability or retirement shall expire and be forfeited. 

  
 -3-

 (ii) Other Termination of Employment. Unless otherwise determined by
the Committee, if your employment terminates for any reason other than your death, Disability, retirement (with the approval of the Committee or the Board), resignation or discharge for Cause, then your Option shall be vested and fully exercisable
with respect to that portion of your Option that was vested and exercisable on the date your employment with the Company ceased, and any portion of your Option that was not vested and exercisable on such date shall expire and be forfeited. If you
resign or are discharged for Cause, all of your Option not previously exercised shall immediately expire and be forfeited whether vested and exercisable or not. 
 (d) Acceleration of Vesting on Change of Control. If you have been continuously employed by the Company from the date of this Agreement until a Change of Control, any portion of your outstanding
Type I Option which has not become vested at the date of such event shall immediately vest and become exercisable simultaneously with the consummation of the Change of Control, notwithstanding that the Change of Control may have transpired prior to
the applicable anniversary date. In any event, any portion of your Option (including any portion of your Type II Option) which has not been become vested and been exercised prior to or in connection with the Change of Control shall expire and be
forfeited, unless otherwise determined by the Committee or the Board. 
 (e) Upon exercise of your Option, the Company will
deliver certificates representing the Option Shares with respect to which your Option is exercised. Kirkland & Ellis LLP will act as custodian and hold all such certificates on your behalf. 

4. Expiration of Option. 
 (a) Normal Expiration. In no event shall any part of your Option be exercisable after the Expiration Date set forth in Section 2(a) above. 

(b) Early Expiration Upon Termination of Employment. Any portion of your Option that was not vested and exercisable as of the date
your employment with the Company terminated shall expire and be forfeited on such date, and, any portion of your Option that was vested and exercisable as of the date your employment with the Company terminated shall expire and be forfeited within
the time frames set forth in the Plan. 
 5. Procedure for Exercise. You may exercise all or any portion of your Option,
to the extent it has vested and is exercisable, at any time and from time to time prior to its expiration, by delivering written notice to the Company (to the attention of the Company’s Secretary) and your written acknowledgement that you have
reviewed and have been afforded an opportunity to ask questions of management of the Company with respect to all financial and other information provided to you regarding the Company, together with payment of the Option Price in accordance with the
provisions of Section 2(b) above. As a condition to any exercise of your Option, you shall permit the Company to deliver to you all financial and other information regarding the Company it believes necessary to enable you to make an
informed investment decision, and you shall make all customary investment representations which the Company requires. 

  
 -4-

 6. Stockholders Agreement. Upon exercise of the Option, you shall be deemed to have
become party to and joined the Company’s Stockholders Agreement dated as of March 23, 2012, and you hereby agree to become a party thereto and bound thereby. 
 7. Securities Laws Restrictions and Other Restrictions on Transfer of Option Shares. You represent and warrant that when you exercise your Option you shall be purchasing Option Shares for your own
account and not on behalf of others. You understand and acknowledge that federal and state securities laws govern and restrict your right to offer, sell or otherwise dispose of any Option Shares unless your offer, sale or other disposition thereof
is registered or qualified under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, or in the opinion of the Company’s counsel, such offer, sale or other disposition is exempt from registration or qualification thereunder. You agree that
you shall not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of any Option Shares in any manner which would: (i) require the Company to file any registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (or any similar filing under state law) or to
amend or supplement any such filing or (ii) violate or cause the Company to violate the Securities Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or any other state or federal law. You further understand that the certificates for any
Option Shares you purchase shall bear such legends as the Company deems necessary or desirable in connection with the Securities Act or other rules, regulations or laws. 
 8. Non-Transferability of Option. Your Option is personal to you and is not transferable by you other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. During your lifetime only you (or your
guardian or legal representative) may exercise your Option. In the event of your death, your Option may be exercised only (i) by the executor or administrator of your estate or the person or persons to whom your rights under the Option shall
pass by will or the laws of descent and distribution and (ii) to the extent that you were entitled hereunder at the date of your death. 
 9. Conformity with Plan. Your Option is intended to conform in all respects with, and is subject to all applicable provisions of, the Plan (which is incorporated herein by reference).
Inconsistencies between this Agreement and the Plan shall be resolved in accordance with the terms of the Plan. By executing and returning the enclosed copy of this Agreement, you acknowledge your receipt of this Agreement and the Plan and agree to
be bound by all of the terms of this Agreement and the Plan. 
 10. Rights of Participants. Nothing in this Agreement
shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate your employment at any time (with or without Cause), nor confer upon you any right to continue in the employ of the Company for any period of time or to continue your
present (or any other) rate of compensation, and in the event of your termination of employment (including, but not limited to, termination by the Company without Cause), any portion of your Option that was not previously vested and exercisable
shall expire and be forfeited. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon you any right to be selected again as a Plan participant, and nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall provide for any adjustment to the number of Option Shares subject to
your Option upon the occurrence of subsequent events except as provided in Section 12 below. 

  
 -5-

 11. Withholding of Taxes. The Company shall be entitled, if necessary or desirable,
to withhold from you any amounts due and payable by the Company to you (or secure payment from you in lieu of withholding) the amount of any withholding or other tax due from the Company with respect to any Option Shares issuable hereunder, and the
Company may defer such issuance unless indemnified by you to its satisfaction. 
 12. Adjustments. In the event of a
reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend or stock split, or combination or other change in the shares of Class B Common Stock, the Board or the Committee may, make such adjustments in the number and type of shares authorized by the Plan, the
number and type of shares covered by your Option and the Exercise Price specified herein as may be determined to be appropriate and equitable, in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of rights under your Option. 

13. Right to Purchase Option Shares Upon Your Termination of Employment. 

(a) Repurchase of Option Shares. If your employment with the Company shall terminate, including upon your death, Disability,
resignation or termination with or without Cause (the date on which such termination occurs being referred to as the “Termination Date”), then the Company shall have the option to repurchase all or any part of the Option Shares
issued or issuable upon exercise of your Option, whether held by you or by one or more of your transferees, at the price determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 14 hereof (the “Repurchase Option”).

 (b) Repurchase by Company. The Board may elect to cause the Company to purchase all or any portion of the Option
Shares by delivery of written notice (the “Repurchase Notice”) to you or any other holders of the Option Shares within 60 days after the Termination Date for any Option Shares issued at least 181 days prior to the Termination Date
(or in the case of Option Shares issued 180 days or less prior to the Termination Date or at any time after such Termination Date, within 60 days after the date that is 181 days following the date of the issuance of such Option Shares). The
Repurchase Notice shall set forth the number of Option Shares to be acquired from you and such other holder(s), the aggregate consideration to be paid for such shares and the time and place for the closing of the transaction. The number of Option
Shares to be repurchased by the Company shall first be satisfied to the extent possible from the Option Shares held by you at the time of delivery of the Repurchase Notice. If the number of Option Shares then held by you is less than the total
number of Option Shares the Company has elected to purchase, then the Company shall purchase the remaining shares elected to be purchased from the other holders thereof, pro rata according to the number of shares held by each such holder at the time
of delivery of such Repurchase Notice (determined as close as practical to the nearest whole share). 
 (c) Assignment of
Repurchase Option. The Company may assign the Repurchase Option to one or more third parties (including to one or more of the Company’s stockholders). 
 (d) Closing of Repurchase of Option Shares. The closing of the purchase of Option Shares pursuant to this Section 13 shall take place on the date designated by the Company in the
Repurchase Notice, which date shall not be more than 30 days nor less than five days after the delivery of the Repurchase Notice. At the closing, the purchaser or purchasers 

  
 -6-

 
shall pay the purchase price in the manner specified in Section 14(b) and you and any other holders of Option Shares being purchased shall deliver the certificate or certificates
representing such shares to the purchaser or purchasers or their nominees, accompanied by duly executed stock powers. Any purchaser of Option Shares under this Section 13 shall be entitled to receive customary representations and
warranties from you and any other selling holders of Option Shares regarding the sale of such shares (including representations and warranties regarding good title to such shares, free and clear of any liens or encumbrances) and to require all
sellers’ signatures to be guaranteed by a national bank or nationally recognized securities broker. 
 (e) Applicability
of Repurchase Option. It is agreed and understood that the Repurchase Option shall apply with respect to the Option Shares issued or issuable pursuant hereto and not with respect to any other shares of capital stock of the Company held by you
(provided that you acknowledge that there exist other repurchase rights relating to other shares of capital stock of the Company that may be held by you). 
 (f) The Repurchase Option contained in this Section 13 shall terminate upon the initial public offering of securities of the Company. 

14. Purchase Price for Option Shares. 
 (a) Purchase Price. The purchase price per share to be paid for the Option Shares purchased by the Company pursuant to Section 13 shall be (i) the lower of the Exercise Price
thereof and the Fair Market Value thereof as of the date of the delivery of the Repurchase Notice (as defined in Section 13(b)) (taking into account any unpaid applicable Exercise Price), in the event of the termination of your
employment for Cause, and (ii) the Fair Market Value thereof as of the date of the delivery of the Repurchase Notice (taking into account any unpaid applicable Exercise Price) in the event of any other termination of employment. 

(b) Manner of Payment. If the Company elects to purchase all or any part of the Option Shares, including Option Shares held by one
or more transferees, the Company shall pay for such shares by first offsetting amounts outstanding under any bona fide debts owed by you to the Company (or one or more of your transferees, other than the Company); upon full repayment of such bona
fide debts, the Company will make payment in the aggregate amount of the remaining purchase price for such Option Shares, at its option, (i) by a check or wire transfer of funds or (ii) if pursuant to Section 14(c) below, the
Company is prohibited from paying cash to repurchase the Option Shares, then by a subordinated note or notes payable in up to three annual installments beginning on the date of the closing of such purchase and bearing interest (payable quarterly) at
a rate per annum equal to the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal on the business day immediately preceding the date of the closing of such purchase. 
 (c) Restrictions on Repurchase. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, all repurchases of Option Shares (and any payments of principal or interest with respect to the
subordinated note(s) referenced in Section 14(b)) by the Company shall be subject to applicable restrictions contained in the Delaware General Corporation Law and in the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ debt and equity financing
agreements. If any such restrictions prohibit the repurchase of Option Shares hereunder which the Company is otherwise entitled or required to make, the Company may make such repurchases as soon as it is permitted to do so under such restrictions.

required in connection with such transfer. 
 (c) Holdback. You agree not to effect any public sale or distribution of
any equity securities of the Company, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the seven days prior to and the 180 days after the effectiveness of any underwritten initial public offering or 90
days following the effectiveness of any follow-on offer, except as part of such underwritten public offering or if otherwise permitted by the Company. 
 16. Remedies. The parties hereto shall be entitled to enforce their rights under this Agreement specifically, to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to
exercise all other rights existing in their favor. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement and that any party hereto shall be entitled to specific

after the Effective Date with respect to or in exchange for equity securities (including securities which are convertible into equity securities) of the Company (whether such payments are received from the Company or any third party). For purposes
of this definition, any cash proceeds or other property that are deposited into an escrow account or that are held back by the purchaser in a Sale of the Company for distribution upon the occurrence of any event or the satisfaction of certain
conditions following the Sale of the Company shall be disregarded in measuring any Fund I Inflows until such time as such amounts are absolutely and unconditionally released to and 

  
 2 

 
received by the selling equityholders of the Company. For purposes of this definition of Fund I Inflows the value of any non-cash consideration received by Fund I (or any transferee of Fund I in
respect of equity securities of the Company so transferred) shall be equal to the fair market value of such consideration as determined by the Committee in its reasonable discretion, after applying a 15% discount to such determination.

accordance with Article IV hereof.

2.17 “Sale of the Company” means any transaction or series of related transactions pursuant to which any person(s) or
entity(ies) (other than Fund I or Fund II (including any Affiliate of Fund I or Fund II)) in the aggregate acquire(s) (i) capital stock of the Company possessing the voting power (other than voting rights accruing only in the event of a
default, breach or event of noncompliance) to elect a majority of the Company’s board of directors (whether by merger, consolidation, reorganization, combination, sale or transfer of the Company’s capital stock, shareholder or voting
agreement, proxy, power of attorney or otherwise) or (ii) all or substantially all of the Company’s assets determined on a consolidated basis. 
 2.18 “Subsidiary” means, with respect to any Person, any corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association or other business entity of which (i) if a corporation, a
majority of the total voting power of shares of stock entitled (without regard to the occurrence of any contingency) to vote in the election of directors, managers or trustees thereof is at the time owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by
that Person or one or more of the other Subsidiaries of that Person or a combination thereof, or (ii) if a limited liability company, partnership, association or other business entity, a majority of the limited liability company, partnership or
other similar ownership interest thereof is at the time owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by any Person or one or more Subsidiaries of that Person or a combination thereof. For purposes hereof, a Person or Persons shall be deemed to have
a majority ownership interest in a limited liability company, partnership, association or other business entity if such Person or Persons shall be allocated a majority of limited liability company, partnership, association or other business entity
gains or losses or shall be or control the managing director or general partner of such limited liability company, partnership, association or other business entity. 
 ARTICLE III 
 ADMINISTRATION 

3.1 General. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall be
authorized to (a) select Participants, (b) determine the Award Percentage applicable to Awards, (c) determine (in accordance with the terms of the 

  
 3 

 
Plan and any applicable Award Notice) the Bonus Amounts payable pursuant to Awards based on the Fund I Inflows in connection with a Sale of the Company, (d) determine (in accordance with the
terms of the Plan and any applicable Award Notice) the conditions and restrictions, if any, subject to which the payment of Bonus Amounts pursuant to Awards will be made, (e) certify that the conditions and restrictions applicable to the
payment of Bonus Amounts pursuant to an Award have been met, (f) interpret the Plan, and (g) adopt, amend, or rescind such rules and regulations, and make such other determinations, for carrying out the Plan as it may reasonably deem
appropriate. Decisions of the Committee on all matters relating to the Plan shall be in the Committee’s reasonable good faith discretion and shall be conclusive and binding upon the Participants, the Company and all other Persons to whom rights
to receive payments hereunder have been transferred in accordance with Section 5.2 hereof. The validity, construction, and effect of the Plan and the rules and regulations relating to the Plan shall be determined in accordance with
applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations promulgated pursuant thereto. 
 3.2 Plan Expenses. The expenses
of the Plan shall be borne by the Company. 
 3.3 Unfunded Arrangement. The Company shall not be required to establish
any special or separate fund or make any other segregation of assets to assume the payment of any amount under the Plan. The Plan shall be “unfunded” for all purposes and Awards hereunder shall be paid out of the general assets of the
Company as and when the Awards are payable under the Plan. All Participants shall be solely unsecured general creditors of the Company. If the Company decides in its sole discretion to establish any advance accrued reserve on its books against the
future expense of the Awards payable hereunder, or if the Company decides in its sole discretion to fund a trust from which Plan benefits may be paid from time to time, such reserve or trust shall not under any circumstance be deemed to be an asset
of the Plan. 
 3.4 Delegation. The Committee may, to the extent permissible by applicable law, delegate any of its
authority hereunder to such Persons as it deems appropriate. 
 3.5 Accounts and Records. The Committee shall maintain
such accounts and records regarding the fiscal and other transactions of the Plan and such other data as may be required to carry out its functions under the Plan and to comply with all applicable laws. 

3.6 Retention of Professional Assistance. The Committee may employ such legal counsel, accountants and other Persons as may be
required in carrying out its duties in connection with the Plan. 
 ARTICLE IV 

PARTICIPATION; GRANT AND PAYMENT OF AWARDS 
 4.1 Participation. Awards are hereby granted under the Plan to those Persons named in Exhibit B hereto (the “Initial Participants”), making such Persons participants in the
Plan; and such Participants’ Awards and Award Percentages are also set forth in Exhibit B hereto. Participation in the Plan shall be limited to those Participants selected by the Committee from time to time, and no employee of the
Company shall have any right to be selected as a 

  
 4 

 
Participant. Nothing in the Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way any right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to terminate any Participant’s employment at any time and for
any reason (or no reason), nor confer upon any Participant any right to continued service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any period of time or to continue such Participant’s present (or any other) rate of compensation. No
Participant who is granted an Award under the Plan shall have any right to a grant of future Awards under the Plan. By accepting any payment under the Plan, each Participant and each Person claiming under or through such Participant shall be
conclusively deemed to have indicated such Person’s acceptance and ratification of, and consent to, any action taken under the Plan by the Company or the Committee. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, determinations made by the
Committee under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made selectively among eligible individuals under the Plan, whether or not such individuals are similarly situated. 
 4.2 Grant of Awards. The Committee shall determine the Participants (other than the Initial Participants) to whom Awards under the Plan are granted. Awards granted under the Plan shall contain an
Award Percentage and shall represent the right to receive a Bonus Amount. The Committee may impose such vesting or other restrictions in an Award Notice on an Award granted under the Plan as it determines in its sole discretion. 

4.3 Determination of Bonus Pool; Time and Form of Payment of Bonus Amounts. The amount of the Bonus Pool shall be determined by
the Committee on or as soon as administratively practicable following a Sale of the Company. Subject to the provisions of Sections 4.4 and 4.5 hereof and the satisfaction of any vesting condition imposed by the Committee on an Award at
the time of grant or, if agreed to by the affected Participant, thereafter, each Bonus Amount that becomes payable in respect of an Award hereunder shall be paid to the Participant in cash in a single, lump-sum as soon as administratively
practicable following the consummation of a Sale of the Company (but in no event later than thirty (30) days following the consummation of a Sale of the Company); provided, however, that in the event that the Fund I Inflows increase due to the
release of any cash proceeds that are deposited into an escrow account or that are subject to being held back by the purchaser of the Company for distribution upon the occurrence of any event or the satisfaction of certain conditions following the
Sale of the Company, as described in the final sentence of the definition of “Fund I Inflows” herein (such increase referred to herein as a “Subsequent Increase”), and the Subsequent Increase increases the Fund I Inflows
such that a larger Bonus Pool would be payable, then any Participant who has remained continuously employed with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries until the time of such Subsequent Increase shall be paid, within sixty (60) days following
the Subsequent Increase, an additional Bonus Amount equal to the product of (x) such Participant’s Award Percentage and (y) the increase in the Bonus Pool that resulted from the Subsequent Increase. Upon acceptance of payment of any
Bonus Amount in respect of any Award hereunder, the Participant shall be deemed, absent manifest error or bad faith by the Committee, to have (i) accepted all aspects of the calculation of the Bonus Pool with respect to the applicable Bonus
Amount, and (ii) unconditionally released and discharged the Company and any and all of the Company’s partners, Subsidiaries, Affiliates, successors and assigns and any and all of its and their past and present officers, directors,
managers, partners, agents, employees and representatives from any and all claims in connection with, or in any manner related to or arising under, the Plan with respect to such Bonus Amount, including the determination of such Bonus Amount and any
other matter associated therewith. 

  
 5 

 4.4 Employment Requirement. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee in its sole
discretion, payment of any Bonus Amount in respect of any Award hereunder shall be conditioned upon the Participant’s continued employment with the Company or its Subsidiaries through the date of the consummation of a Sale of the Company (and
through the date of payment of any portion of the Bonus Amount payable after the date of consummation of such Sale of the Company, to the extent any portion of the Bonus Amount becomes payable after the date of such Sale of the Company). Unless
otherwise determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, a Participant shall not be entitled to the payment of any Bonus Amount in respect of an Award hereunder in the event of such Participant’s termination of employment at any time or
for any reason (or no reason) prior to the date of consummation of a Sale of the Company, and all of a Participant’s Awards granted under the Plan shall be forfeited automatically upon such Participant’s termination of employment at any
time or for any reason (or no reason). 
 4.5 Restrictive Covenants. In partial consideration for the grant of an Award
under the Plan, a Participant’s rights with respect to the payment of any Bonus Amount under the Plan shall be subject to the Participant’s compliance with any non-competition, non-solicitation or other restrictive covenants that may be
contained in any employment agreement, restrictive covenants agreement or other agreement between the Company and the Participant, whether entered into prior to, on or following the Effective Date. If, at the time of enforcement of any restrictive
covenants described in this Section 4.5, a court shall hold that the duration, scope, area or other restrictions stated in the applicable agreement are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, such provisions shall be enforceable
to the maximum extent permissible under applicable law. In addition to any means at law or equity available to enforce such restrictive covenants (including, without limitation, injunctive relief), the Participant shall be required upon a breach of
any such restrictive covenant to forfeit the Participant’s rights with respect to any Award hereunder. 
 ARTICLE V

 MISCELLANEOUS 
 5.1 Successors. For purposes of the Plan, the Company shall include any and all successors or assignees, whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, to all or
substantially all of the business or assets of the Company and such successors and assignees shall perform the Company’s obligations under the Plan, in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no
such succession or assignment had taken place. In the event that the surviving corporation in any transaction to which the Company is a party is a subsidiary of another corporation, the ultimate parent corporation of such surviving corporation shall
cause the surviving corporation to perform the obligations of the Company under the Plan in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform such obligations if no such succession or assignment had taken place. In
such event, the term “Company,” as used in the Plan, shall mean the Company, as hereinbefore defined, and any successor or assignee (including the ultimate parent corporation) to the business or assets thereof which by reason hereof
becomes bound by the terms and provisions of the Plan. No rights under the Plan shall be assignable by the Participant or subject to any pledge or encumbrance of any nature. 

  
 6 

 5.2 Nontransferability. No Award or right to receive payment under the Plan may be
transferred other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any transfer or attempted transfer of an Award or a right to receive payment under the Plan contrary to this Section 5.2 shall be void. In the event of an attempted
transfer by a Participant of an Award or a right to receive payment pursuant to the Plan contrary to this Section 5.2 hereof, the Committee may in its sole discretion terminate such Award or right. 

5.3 Withholding Taxes. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be entitled, if necessary or desirable, to withhold from any
amount due and payable by the Company to any Participant (or secure payment from such Participant in lieu of withholding) the amount of any withholding or other tax due from the Company with respect to any amount payable to such Participant under
the Plan. 
 5.4 Amendment and Termination of the Plan. The Board reserves the right to amend or terminate, in whole or
in part, any or all of the provisions of the Plan by action of the Board (or a duly authorized committee thereof) at any time, provided that in no event shall any amendment or termination adversely affect in any material respect the rights of
Participants hereunder without the prior written consent of those Participants holding in excess of 50% of the Award Percentages; provided further, that, no such amendment may affect any rights granted specifically to a Participant
pursuant to an Award Notice without such Participant’s prior written consent. This Plan, together with all exhibits and annexes hereto and any Award Notice granted pursuant to the Plan, sets forth the entire agreement of the parties hereto in
respect of the subject matter contained herein and supersedes any and all prior agreements or understandings between a Participant and the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof. 

5.5 Severability. The provisions of the Plan shall be deemed severable. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of the
Plan in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of the remainder of the Plan in such jurisdiction or the validity, legality or enforceability of any provision of the Plan in any other jurisdiction, it being
intended that all provisions of the Plan shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. 
 5.6
Titles and Headings. The headings and titles used in the Plan are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of the Plan. 
 5.7 Validity of Signatures. Signatures on any Award Notice which are transmitted by facsimile or electronic mail shall be valid for all purposes. 

5.8 Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of the Plan or any Award
shall be governed by the internal law of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws
of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. Any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be
brought in the United States District Court for the Delaware District or any Delaware State court sitting in New Castle County, Delaware, and each of the parties hereby consents to the personal jurisdiction of such courts (and

  
 7 

 
of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) and to service of process upon them in accordance with the rules and statutes governing service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding
and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding that is
brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient form. EACH PARTICIPANT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A JURY TRIAL IN CONNECTION WITH THE PLAN OR ANY AWARD OR ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.

 5.9 No Obligation; Company Discretion. No provision of the Plan or any Award granted hereunder shall be interpreted to
impose an obligation on the Company to accept, agree to or otherwise enter into any proposed or potential Sale of the Company. The decision to enter into (or to reject) a proposed transaction to consummate a Sale of the Company, and all terms and
conditions of such transaction, including the amount, timing and form of consideration to be provided in connection therewith, shall be within the sole and absolute discretion of the Company. 

5.10 No Acquired Rights. All Awards under the Plan are made at the Plan Committee’s discretion. The Company or the Committee
assumes no obligation to a Participant under this Plan with respect to any doctrine or principle of acquired rights or similar concept. Awards under the Plan are special incentives and shall not be taken into account in computing the amount of
salary or compensation for purposes of determining any bonus, incentive, pension, retirement, death or other benefit under any other bonus, incentive, pension, retirement, insurance or other employee benefit plan of the Company, unless such plan or
agreement expressly provides otherwise. 
 5.11 Code Section 409A. The Plan is intended to be exempt from, the
requirements of Code Section 409A. Accordingly, the Company reserves the right to amend the provisions of the Plan at any time and in any manner without the consent of Participants solely to be exempt from the requirements of Code
Section 409A and to avoid the imposition of the additional tax, interest or income inclusion under Code Section 409A on any payment to be made hereunder while preserving, to the maximum extent possible, the intended economic result of the
Award of any affected Participant. Whenever a payment under the Plan specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days, the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the reasonable discretion of the Company.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable for any additional tax, interest, income inclusion or other penalty that may be imposed on a Participant by Code Section 409A or for damages for failing to comply
with Code Section 409A.
