Dear Hillary:

This Separation Agreement and Release (“Agreement”) sets forth the agreement reached concerning the separation of your employment with Essential Properties Realty Trust, Inc., including its current and former parents, subsidiaries and affiliates, and their respective current and former successors, predecessors, assigns, representatives, agents, attorneys, stockholders, partners, officers, directors and employees, both individually and in their official capacities (collectively, the “Company”).

1.Separation Date.  Your service as the Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of the Company and one of its Executive Vice Presidents will end immediately, and your employment with the Company will end on April 30, 2020 (the “Separation Date”).  The Company will pay you, in a lump-sum on, or no later than the payroll date following, the Separation Date (a) any base salary payable to you pursuant to the Employment Agreement between you and the Company dated as of June 25, 2018 (the “Employment Agreement”), accrued up to and including the Separation Date, less applicable withholdings and deductions, (b) any accrued but unused vacation or other paid time off, (c) any other employee benefits to which you are entitled upon termination of your employment with the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable plans of the Company and applicable law, and (d) reimbursement for any unreimbursed business expenses incurred by you prior to the Separation Date, ((a)-(d), collectively, the “Accrued Amounts”).  You acknowledge and agree that your employment with the Company ends for all purposes on the Separation Date.

2.Additional Benefits.  In addition to payment of the Accrued Amounts as set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement, in consideration for signing this Agreement and in exchange for the promises, covenants and waivers set forth herein, generally as if your employment had been terminated by the Company without Cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement), (a) the Company will pay you severance benefits equal to 12 months of your current base salary (i.e., $275,000), payable in a lump sum in accordance with the Company's regular payroll practices, (b) a pro rata target bonus for 2020 (i.e., $110,000) and awarded but unpaid performance bonus for the year ended December 31, 2019 (i.e., $50,000), (c) during the 12-month period commencing immediately after the Separation Date and subject to your timely and proper election of COBRA benefits, monthly reimbursement to you for the costs of maintaining coverage for health benefits at the current levels of benefits in effect for you immediately prior to the Separation Date (including family coverage, if such coverage was in effect immediately prior to the Separation Date), (d) any outstanding unvested time-based restricted stock units previously

granted to you by the Company will become vested as of the Separation Date and will be settled in accordance with their terms, and (e) any outstanding unvested performance-based restricted stock units previously granted to you by the Company will become vested based on the actual performance of the Company through the Separation Date (as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Company) and will be settled in accordance with their terms.  The severance benefits described in clause (a) will be paid on the first regular payroll date of the Company after the Separation Date.

3.Mutual Release of Claims.  Except for breaches by the Company of this Agreement and/or claims by you that this Agreement was not entered into knowingly and voluntarily, for and in consideration of the benefits described in Section 2, and the other promises, agreements and undertakings contained herein, you, and anyone claiming through you, including your spouse, issue, agents, representatives, guardians, assigns, dependents, heirs, executors, administrators, and attorneys, do hereby irrevocably waive, release, and discharge the Company, from any and all claims that you now have, including, but not limited to, all claims arising from, growing out of, or in any way connected with, directly or indirectly, your employment relationship with the Company, or the separation of that relationship, or otherwise.  Specifically, you agree and acknowledge that by signing this Agreement, you forever relinquish and waive all rights that you have had or now have (except any claims that cannot be waived by law), and arising through the date that you sign this Agreement with respect to any and all actual or potential:

a.claims against the Company based on the Employment Agreement, any other contract, express or implied, and any other Company program, policy or plan unless specifically preserved in this Agreement;

b.claims against the Company based upon alleged violation(s) of any statute, regulation, or ordinance, whether federal, state or local, or based on any other federal, state or local law, including but not limited to, any and all claims under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, 29 U.S.C. §1001, et seq.; Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. §2000e, et seq.; the Civil Rights Act of 1991, P.L. 102-166, 105 Stat. 1071, et seq.; 42 U.S.C. §1981; the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. §12101, et seq.; the Family and Medical Leave Act, 29 U.S.C. §2601, et seq.; the Equal Pay Act, 29 U.S.C. §206(d), et seq.; and any other federal, state, or local laws touching upon the employment relationship;

c.claims against the Company based upon the U.S. Constitution or any State Constitution;

d.claims against the Company based on the common law, including, but not limited to, claims of personal injury, emotional and mental distress, injury to personal reputation, defamation (including libel or slander), denial or termination of employment in contravention of the common law or any federal, state, local or public policy, law or regulation; and

b.In accordance with the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, you understand that notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Employment Agreement, an individual may not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (i) is made in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (ii) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.

March 16, 2020

wrongdoing, responsibility, or liability on the part of the Company.  It is expressly understood and agreed between the parties that the consideration provided to you pursuant to this Agreement is made solely for the purpose of settling and compromising any actual and/or possible claims of injuries you may have arising from your employment relationship with the Company, the termination thereof and the circumstances surrounding the separation of your employment relationship with the Company, and it is further agreed that the Company is not otherwise obligated to provide such consideration.

6.Entire Agreement.  You acknowledge and agree that no promise or inducement has been offered to you for signing this Agreement other than the promises contained herein and the consideration described in Section 2, above; that this Agreement is signed by you without reliance upon any statement or representation of the Company, its attorneys or representatives, concerning the nature and extent of any possible claim(s); that this Agreement and the provisions of your Employment Agreement that survive your termination of employment, contain the entire agreement between you and the Company and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous oral or written statements or understandings; that the terms of this Agreement are contractual in nature and not a mere recital; and that you are legally competent to sign this Agreement and accept your full responsibility under it.

10.Choice of Law.  This Agreement is expressly made subject to the provisions of the applicable and valid laws, rules, regulations, and judicial and administrative decisions of the United States of America and the State of New Jersey (excluding the conflict-of-law principles thereof), and if any provision(s) of this Agreement shall ever be invalidated or struck down because of a conflict with any such laws, rules, regulations, or decisions, the invalidation shall affect said provision(s) only, and any and all provisions of this Agreement that are not so invalidated or struck down shall continue in full force and effect.

11.Miscellaneous.  This Agreement may be modified or amended only by a written instrument executed by you and the Company.  It may not be amended, modified, changed or added to in any manner or fashion by oral statements, acts or conduct.
