 PHANTOM EQUITY AGREEMENT 

PHANTOM EQUITY AGREEMENT, effective as of August 1, 2007 (the “Effective Date”), dated as of October 17, 2007, and
restated as of the date noted below (the “Agreement”), by and among Foresight Energy Services LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), and Drexel Short (the “Executive”). 

WHEREAS, the Company has engaged the Executive as an at will employee of the Company; and 

WHEREAS, the Executive is willing and able to accept and continue his employment with the Company as an at will employee in consideration of
the Company entering into this Agreement. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other valid
consideration, the sufficiency of which is acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  

	 	Section 1.	Phantom Equity Award. 

 1.1. Award. The Company hereby awards
Executive a phantom equity interest equal to a one percent (1%) limited partnership interest in 69.59409% of Foresight Reserves, L.P. (“Reserves”) (the “Phantom Equity Award”). If additional partners are
admitted to Reserves or a current partner of Reserves interest is terminated, Executive’s Phantom Equity Award shall be adjusted to maintain the same ratio of ownership as exists as of the date hereof with the partners of Reserves other than
Riverstone (the “Effective Date Partners”). 
 1.2. Account Balance and Distributions. If Reserves
makes any distribution, in cash or in-kind, to its partners attributable to equity (other than distributions made to partners merely to satisfy tax obligations of those partners), Reserves shall pay to Executive in cash an amount equal to the
Phantom Equity Award multiplied by (a) if such distribution is in cash, the amount otherwise distributed to the Effective Date Partners or (b) if such distribution is in-kind, the fair market value of the property distributed to the
Effective Date Partners, determined as of the date of the distribution to the Effective Date Partners. The fair market value of any in-kind distribution shall be determined in good faith by the managing partner of Reserves. Such payments shall be
paid in cash to the Executive as an employment bonus by January 15 of the following year, in addition to any payments made to Executive by the Company in respect of Executive’s employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no payment under
this Section 1.2 shall be paid to Executive unless the Executive is employed by the Company on the date such payment would otherwise occur. 

1.3. Change of Control. Upon a Change of Control of Reserves, then immediately prior to such sale, Reserves shall pay to
Executive as a bonus an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the net consideration that the Effective Date Partners would otherwise receive plus an amount equal to the Accrued Tax Distributions (as defined below). For example, if the Effective
Date Partners own 69.59409% of Reserves, and a third party purchases 100% of the equity of Reserves for $1,000,000 then immediately prior to such sale, Reserves shall make a bonus payment to Executive of ($1,000,000 x .6959409 x 0.01) = $6,959.41,
plus any Accrued Tax Distributions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall only be entitled to the bonus described in this Section 1.3 if he is employed by the Company on the date of such Change of

  
 2 

 
Control. The Company’s payment of the bonus described in this Section 1.3 to the Executive shall be in full satisfaction of the Company’s and Reserve’s obligations to make
payment to the Executive under the terms of this Agreement, and the Company’s and Reserves’ obligation to pay Executive any amounts described in this Agreement (including pursuant to Section 2 below) shall cease as of the date of
payment of such bonus. 
 A “Change of Control” shall be deemed to have occurred if any person or group of
persons together with its affiliates, excluding employee benefit plans of Reserves or its affiliates, is or becomes, directly or indirectly, the beneficial owner of Reserves equity interests representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of
its then outstanding equity interests whether through the partners’ approval of a merger or consolidation of Reserves with any other entity regardless of which entity is the survivor, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in
the voting interests of Reserves outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or being converted into voting interests of the surviving entity) at least 80% of the combined voting power of the voting
interests of Reserves or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation or any other event which Reserves management determines should constitute a Change of Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall
a Change of Control be deemed to have occurred if such Change of Control does not constitute a “change in the ownership” or “change in the effective control” of Reserves, each within the meaning of Section 409A of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Treasury regulations and applicable published guidance relating thereto (collectively, “Code Section 409A”). 

Section 2. Termination/Bonus Payments. Upon the date of termination of Executive’s employment with the Company by
either party for any reason, Reserves shall pay to Executive an amount equal to (i) the Fair Market Value of Executive’s Phantom Equity Award, plus (ii) an amount equal to the sum of all tax distributions (i.e., distributions made to
Effective Date Partners during the term of this Agreement merely to satisfy tax obligations of those partners) Executive would have received had he owned equity in Reserves equal to his Phantom Equity Award percentage (which, as of November 1,
2012, totaled $1,372,459.41), and shall be increased after such date if additional tax distributions are made to Effective Date Partners after such date and on or before Executive terminates employment with the Company) (the “Accrued Tax
Distributions”), less (iii) $3,000,000 (but not below zero), which shall be his Termination Amount. Reserves may pay such Termination Amount as of the date of termination of Executive’s employment in cash or, subject to the terms
hereof, by delivery to the Executive of a Qualified Promissory Note (as defined below) payable in quarter-annual installments over a period of not longer than ten (10) years with interest compounded at the “applicable federal rate” as
such rate is determined under the Internal Revenue Code (the “AFR”), provided, that if such Termination Amount is less than $5,000.000, then the term of any such note shall not be longer than three (3) years, further
provided, that a portion of such Termination Amount may be paid in cash and a portion may be paid, subject to the terms hereto, through the delivery to the Executive of a Qualified Promissory Note. The parties hereto agree that in no
event will the Termination Amount to be paid in cash be less than the product of the Termination Amount multiplied by the sum of the maximum marginal federal, state and local tax rates for the tax year in which the payment is received (the
“Required Cash Amount”). Any Qualified Promissory Note shall have a principal amount equal to the Termination Amount reduced by any Required Cash Amount paid to Executive. “Qualified Promissory Note” shall mean a
secured promissory note, negotiable in form and having characteristics commensurate with a cash equivalent (such as the ability for such note to be transferred or assigned and it having been issued 

  
 3 

 
by an obligor with adequate solvency), and a prohibition against setoff of any amounts. Any such Qualified Promissory Note shall be in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. The
parties’ intent is and has been for the receipt of the Termination Amount to constitute a taxable event with respect to the entire Termination Amount regardless of the form of payment therefor and for any Qualified Promissory Note to constitute
“property” for purposes of Section 83 of the Code. 
 The “Fair Market Value” of the Phantom Equity Award in Reserves shall be the
fair market value of such interest valuing Reserves on a going concern basis but taking into account debt and appropriate discounts for lack of marketability and minority interest for the limited partnership interest so valued. The Fair Market Value
shall be determined in good faith the by the general partner of Reserves. If the Executive disputes the Fair Market Value determined by the general partner, the Executive shall so notify Reserves, and if the general partner of Reserves and the
Executive cannot resolve the dispute in good faith within 30 days or such longer period of time as they may mutually agree, then the Executive may demand arbitration under the rules of commercial arbitration of the American Arbitration Association.
Reserves and Executive shall each be entitled to make a presentation concerning the Fair Market Value to the single arbitrator after which such arbitrator shall be authorized to pick one and only one of the two purchase prices offered by Reserves,
on the one hand, and the Executive, on the other hand. The arbitrator’s determination shall be final and not subject to appeal or farther arbitration by either party. The costs of any such mediation and/or arbitration (which include the cost of
the arbitrator but not the expenses of the parties such as legal and expert fees) shall be borne by the losing party, provided, that the disputing parties shall advance any expenses required to engage the arbitrator equally. The Company’s
payment of the Termination Amount to the Executive shall be in full satisfaction of the Company’s obligations to make payment to the Executive with respect to his Phantom Equity Award. Upon the payment of the final such installment, the
Company’s and Reserves’ obligation to pay Executive any amounts described in this Agreement shall cease. 
 If the Executive dies
prior to the payment of all quarterly installments described in this Section 2, any installments that have not been paid as of the date of the Executive’s death shall continue to be paid at the same time and in the same form to the
beneficiary the Executive has designated to receive such payments. Such beneficiary shall be designated in writing in such form acceptable to the Company. Should the Executive not designate a beneficiary in writing in a form acceptable to the
Company or should any such designated beneficiary (or any alternate designated beneficiaries) die prior to the payment of all installments payments, any such remaining installment payments shall be paid to the Executive’s spouse at the time of
his death or, if none, his estate at the same time and in the same form as such installments would have been paid to the Executive had the Executive not died. 
  

	 	Section 3.	Employment Termination. 

 3.1. Termination of Employment.
The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment for any reason, and Executive acknowledges that he is an “at will” employee. 

3.2. Cooperation. During his employment and after, Executive shall, at Company’s request and expense, cooperate
with Company and its affiliates in any internal investigation or audit, or in any dispute with any third party as reasonably requested by Company (including without limitation, Executive being available to Company upon reasonable notice for
interviews 

  
 4 

 
and factual investigations, appearing at Company’s request to give testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, volunteering to Company all pertinent information
and turning over to Company all relevant documents which are or may come into Executive’s possession). 
  

	 	Section 4.	Unauthorized Disclosure; Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation; Interference with Business Relationships: Proprietary Rights. 

4.1. Unauthorized Disclosure. The Executive expressly agrees that all information he obtains regarding Company, any of
its affiliates, or any work performed hereunder shall be deemed confidential. Executive further agrees that he shall not disclose any such information to any person or entity, or otherwise use such information in any manner that is unrelated to the
performance of his services under this Agreement, without Company’s express prior written consent. Executive’s duties of confidentiality shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement. 

4.2. Non-Competition. By and in consideration of the Company’s entering into this Agreement and the payments to be
made and the benefits to be provided hereunder, acknowledges and agrees that as a condition of his employment by Company under this Agreement, that for so long as he is employed hereunder and for the period of one year after his termination of
employment (the “Restriction Period”). Executive shall not compete in any way, either directly or indirectly, with any of Christopher Cline, Company, or any of their affiliates. For the purpose of this restriction, competing, shall
include, without limitation, serving as an owner, investor, employee, or agent of any individual or entity engaged in the development of coal mines and/or the mining or production of coal (“Mining Activities”) in any state or
territory where any of Christopher Cline, Company, or any of their affiliates are engaged in such Mining Activities while Executive was employed under this Agreement. 

4.3. Non-Solicitation of Employees. During the Restriction Period, the Executive shall not directly or indirectly
contact, induce or solicit (or assist any Person to contact, induce or solicit) for employment any person who is, or within twelve (12) months prior to the date of such solicitation was, an employee of the Company or any of its affiliates. 

4.4. Interference with Business Relationships. During the Restriction Period (other than in connection with carrying out
his responsibilities for the Company and its affiliates), the Executive shall not directly or indirectly contact, induce or solicit (or assist any Person to contact, induce or solicit) any customer or client of the Company or its subsidiaries to
terminate its relationship or otherwise cease doing business in whole or in part with the Company or its subsidiaries, or directly or indirectly interfere with (or assist any Person to interfere with) any material relationship between the Company or
its subsidiaries and any of its or their customers or clients so as to cause harm to the Company or its affiliates. 
 4.5.
Extension of Restriction Period. The Restriction Period shall be tolled for any period during which the Executive is in breach of any of Sections 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4 hereof. 

4.6. Proprietary Rights. The Executive expressly acknowledges that all work product, information or data in any form
generated in connection with the services performed under this Agreement, and all component parts thereof, shall be and remain the exclusive property of 

  
 5 

 
Company. Executive acknowledges that he cannot use any such work product, information or data in any manner that is unrelated to the performance of his services under this Agreement without the
Company’s express prior written consent. At the termination of Executive’s employment with Company, he will deliver to Company any and all Company property, together with all copies thereof, and any other material containing confidential
or proprietary nature of any kind whatsoever. 
 4.7. Confidentiality of Agreement. Other than with respect to
information required to be disclosed by applicable law, the parties hereto agree not to disclose the terms of this Agreement to any Person; provided the Executive may disclose this Agreement and/or any of its terms to the Executive’s
immediate family, financial advisors and attorneys, so long as the Executive instructs every such Person to whom the Executive makes such disclosure not to disclose the terms of this Agreement further. 

4.8. Remedies. The Executive agrees that any breach of the terms of this Section 4 would result in irreparable
injury and damage to the Company for which the Company would have no adequate remedy at law; the Executive therefore also agrees that in the event of said breach or any threat of breach, the Company shall be entitled to an immediate injunction and
restraining order to prevent such breach and/or threatened breach and/or continued breach by the Executive and/or any and all Persons acting for and/or with the Executive, without having to prove damages, in addition to any other remedies to which
the Company may be entitled at law or in equity, including, without limitation, the obligation of the Executive to return any Severance Payments made by the Company (subject to the Company fulfilling any proofs required therefor). The terms of this
paragraph shall not prevent the Company from pursuing any other available remedies for any breach or threatened breach hereof, including, without limitation, the recovery of damages from the Executive. The Executive and the Company further agree
that the provisions of the covenants contained in this Section 4 are reasonable and necessary to protect the businesses of the Company and its affiliates because of the Executive’s access to Confidential Information and his material
participation in the operation of such businesses. 
  

	 	Section 5.	Representation. 

 The Executive and the Company each represents and warrants that
(i) he or it is not subject to any contract, arrangement, policy or understanding, or to any statute, governmental rule or regulation, that in any way limits his or its ability to enter into and fully perform his or its obligations under this

	 	Section 6.	Non-Disparagement.

of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Executive agrees not to make any statement (other than statements made in connection with carrying out his responsibilities for the Company and its affiliates) that is intended to become
public, or that should reasonably be expected to become public, and that criticizes, ridicules, disparages or is otherwise derogatory of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, affiliates, employees, officers, directors or stockholders. The Company
shall cause its officers and directors not to make any such statement regarding the Executive. 

  
 6 

	 	Section 7.	Employment Status, Partner Status and Withholding. 

 The Executive acknowledges
and agrees that he is an employee of the Company and that the rights conferred to him under this Agreement do not make the Executive a partner in Reserves or in any other organization. The Executive also acknowledges and agrees that actual payment
of any bonus amount under this Agreement may be paid be either the Company or Reserves. The Company or Reserves may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement such Federal, state local or foreign taxes as shall be required to be withheld
pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. The Executive shall be solely responsible for the payment of all taxes relating to the payment or provision of any amounts or benefits hereunder. 

 

	 	Section 8.	Miscellaneous. 

 8.1. Code Section 409A. It is intended that this
Agreement shall comply with Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if Executive is considered a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A (as determined in
accordance with the methodology established by the Company as in effect on the date of termination), any payment that constitutes nonexempt “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Code Section 409A that is otherwise due to
Executive under this Agreement during the six-month period immediately following Executive’s separation from service (as determined in accordance with Code Section 409A) on account of Executive’s separation from service shall be
accumulated and paid to Executive on the first business day of the seventh month following his Date of Termination (which amount shall accrue interest at the AFR in effect for short-term loans as of the Date of Termination, compounded semi-annually,
from the Date of Termination through and until such payment date. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, any references to termination of employment or Date of Termination shall mean and refer to the date of
Executive’s “separation from service” as that term is defined in Code Section 409A. Executive understands and agrees that entering into this Agreement (including entering into amendments hereto) and receiving the benefits and
payments provided under this Agreement may result in unintended, adverse tax consequences. Should any payments or benefits payable to Executive under this Agreement subject Executive to any penalties, taxes, interest charges, or other adverse
consequences under Code Section 409A (collectively, the “409A Penalties”), then Company and Reserves shall jointly and severally pay, in a cash lump-sum on the date Executive is subject to the 409A Penalties, an additional
payment equal to (i) the 409A Penalties (the “409A Gross-Up Payment”) plus (ii) an additional amount equal to all taxes, interest or penalties (including any additional tax, interest or penalties imposed upon the payments
contemplated under this clause (ii) that Executive must pay with respect to the 409A Gross-Up Payment). 
 8.2.
Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement and any of the provisions hereof may be amended, waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), modified or supplemented, in whole or in part, only by
written agreement signed by the parties hereto; provided, that, the observance of any provision of this Agreement may be waived in writing by the party that will lose the benefit of such provision as a result of such waiver; provided
further, that, Reserves may terminate this Agreement in its sole discretion in accordance with Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulation 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix), as long as Executive receives the Termination Amount, valued as of the date of
termination of this Agreement, payable at the earliest time permissible under the timing requirements of such 

  
 7 

 
Treasury Regulation due to the termination of the Agreement. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or
continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach, except as otherwise explicitly provided for in such waiver. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no
delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder, or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. 
 8.3. Nonalienation
of Benefits. No right or benefit under this Plan shall be subject to anticipation, alienation, sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or change, and any attempt to anticipate, alienate, sell, assign, pledge, encumber, or charge the same shall be
void. No right or benefit hereunder shall in any manner be liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, or torts of the person entitled to such benefit. If any participant or beneficiary hereunder should become bankrupt or attempt to
anticipate, alienate, sell, assign, pledge, encumber, or charge any right to benefit hereunder, then such right or benefit, in the discretion of the Members, shall cease and terminate, and in such event, Reserves may hold or apply the same or any
part thereof for the benefit of Executive, his spouse, children or other dependents, or any of them, in such manner and in such portions the Members may deem proper. 

8.4. Assignment. This Agreement and the parties’ rights and obligations hereunder may not be assigned without the
consent of the other party hereto, and any purported assignment shall be null and void; provided, however, that such rights and obligations may be assigned or transferred by the Company pursuant to a merger or consolidation, the sale
or liquidation of all or substantially all of the business and assets of the Company, or upon consent of the Executive, provided that the assignee or transferee is the successor to all or substantially all of the business and assets of the Company
and such assignee or transferee assumes the liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company, as contained in this Agreement, either contractually or as a matter of law. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon any Person not a party to this
Agreement, or the legal representatives of such Person, any rights or remedies of any nature or kind whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. 

8.5. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights and obligations of
the parties hereto shall be governed by, the laws of the State of West Virginia, without giving effect to the conflicts of law principles thereof. 

8.6. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement, including those
contained in Section 4 hereof, will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law but the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement in any jurisdiction shall
not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, including that provision or portion of any provision, in any other jurisdiction. In addition,
should a court or arbitrator determine that any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement, including those contained in Section 4 hereof, is not reasonable or valid, either in period of time, geographical area, or otherwise, the
parties hereto agree that such provision should be interpreted and enforced to the maximum extent which such court or arbitrator deems reasonable or valid.

 8.7. Entire Agreement. From and after the Effective Date, this Agreement
constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto, and supersede all prior representations, agreements and understandings (including any prior course of dealings), both written and oral, between the parties hereto with respect to the

 8.8. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. 
 8.9.
Binding Effect. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding on, the successors of each of the parties, including, without limitation, the Executive’s heirs and the personal representatives of the Executive’s estate
and any successor to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company. 
 8.10. General Interpretive
Principles. The headings of the sections, paragraphs, subparagraphs, clauses and subclauses of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions hereof.
Words of inclusion shall not be construed as terms of limitation herein, so that references to “include,” “includes” and “including” shall not be limiting and shall be regarded as references to non-exclusive and
non-characterizing illustrations. 
 8.11. Parties to This Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement
to the contrary, following the date of this amendment to and restatement of this Agreement, the parties to this Agreement agree and acknowledge that neither Reserves nor Foresight Management, LLC shall have any rights or obligations under the terms

 Upon a
Change of Control (as defined in the Phantom Equity Agreement entered into by Executive and the undersigned and dated as of             , 2012), the outstanding principal balance and

all of which are hereby expressly waived. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the undersigned shall have five business days after receipt of the notice described therein in which to cure an Event of Default, to the extent applicable. If any

	1 	Term dependent upon 1274 of Code. 

 This Note shall be assignable and transferable by Executive without the consent of the
undersigned. This Note is secured under that certain [Security Agreement], dated as of even date herewith, by and between the undersigned and Executive (as amended from time to time, the “Security Agreement”)2 [Type of security to be determined at the time of Executive’s termination of employment, subject to any restrictions in any credit agreement the Company has in place at such time. Foresight
Reserves, L.P. shall guaranty the note]. Reference is hereby made to the Security Agreement for a description of the nature and extent of the security for this Note and the rights with respect to such security of the holder of this Note. In
addition, this is a full recourse note so that the undersigned and its successors or assignees shall be liable on this Note and (b) in the Event of Default under this Note, Executive (and any representative, successor, endorsee or assign) may
seek payment of amounts due under this Note in accordance with the rights and remedies set forth in the Security Agreement and directly against the undersigned and its successors or assignees. Moreover, the terms of this Note shall bind and inure to
the benefit of the heirs, devisees, representatives, successors and assigns of the parties and any direct or other transferee of any transfer of the Note by Executive. The foregoing sentence shall not be construed to permit the undersigned to assign
or delegate any obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Executive. Also, undersigned shall not have the right to offset any payments hereunder against any obligations Executive may have to the undersigned. 

In the event that any payment of any principal or interest on this Note is not paid when due, whether by reason of maturity, acceleration or
otherwise, and this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney or attorneys for collection or if this Note is placed in the hands of an attorney or attorneys for representation of the Executive in connection with bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings
relating hereto, the undersigned promises to pay to the order of the Executive, in addition to all other amounts otherwise due hereon, the costs and expenses of such collection, foreclosure and representation, including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses (whether or not litigation shall be commenced in aid thereof). 
 The undersigned hereby
waives presentment, demand for payment, protest and notice of nonpayment or dishonor and agrees that failure of the holder to exercise any of its rights hereunder in any instance shall not constitute a waiver thereof in that or any other instance.
No amount payable hereunder shall be permitted to be setoff for any obligation owed to the undersigned or its affiliates. 
 Any dispute or
controversy between the Executive and the undersigned, whether arising out of or relating to this Note, the breach of this Note, or otherwise, shall be settled by confidential arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association
(“AAA”) in accordance with its Commercial Rules then in effect and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Any arbitration shall be held before a single arbitrator who shall
be selected by the mutual agreement of the Executive and the undersigned, unless the parties are unable to agree to an arbitrator, in which case, the arbitrator will be selected under the procedures of the AAA. The arbitrator shall have the

 Exhibit 10.2 

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) made as of July 8, 2013, effective as of June 3, 2013 (the “Effective
Date”), between TIME WARNER CABLE INC. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, and Philip G. Meeks (“you” or “your”). 

You and the Company desire to set forth the terms and conditions of your employment by the Company and agree as follows: 

1.       Term of Agreement. The term of this Agreement shall be for the period beginning on the
Effective Date and ending on June 2, 2016 (the “Term”), subject, however, to earlier termination as set forth in this Agreement. 

2.       Employment. During the Term, (a) you shall serve as the Executive Vice President,
Chief Operating Officer, Business Services of the Company, and you shall have the authority, functions, duties, powers and responsibilities normally associated with such position (including, without limitation, the authority, functions, duties,
powers and responsibilities you hold as of the date hereof), and such other title, authority, functions, duties, powers and responsibilities as may be assigned to you from time to time by the Company consistent with your senior position with the
Company; (b) your services shall be rendered on a substantially full-time, exclusive basis and you will apply on a full-time basis all of your skill and experience to the performance of your duties; (c) you shall report to the Chief
Operating Officer of the Company (the “COO”) or such other senior executive as the Company determines in its sole discretion; (d) you shall have no other employment and, without the prior written consent of the CEO, no outside
business activities which require the devotion of substantial amounts of your time; (e) you shall adhere to the Company’s policies in effect during your employment, including its Standards of Business Conduct, Insider Trading Policy, and
the stock ownership or retention guidelines adopted by the Company, if any; and (f) the place for the performance of your services shall be at the Company’s principal corporate offices, and such principal corporate offices shall be in the
New York metropolitan area, subject to such reasonable travel as may be required in the performance of your duties. For purposes of this Section 2, “Company” shall mean either Time Warner Cable Inc. or, if Time Warner Cable Inc.
becomes a controlled subsidiary of another entity, then the ultimate parent company of Time Warner Cable Inc. The foregoing shall be subject to the Company’s written policies, as in effect from time to time, regarding vacations, holidays,
illness and the like. 

 3.       Compensation. 

3.1.      Base Salary. The Company shall pay you a base salary at the rate of not less than $600,000 per
annum during the Term (“Base Salary”). The Company may increase, but not decrease, your Base Salary during the Term. Base Salary shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s customary payroll practices. 

3.2.      Bonus. In addition to Base Salary, the Company typically pays its executives an annual cash
bonus (“Bonus”). Each year, the Company will establish a target annual Bonus (“Target Bonus”) for you. Following the applicable year, the Company’s performance (and the relevant Line of Business performance, if applicable)
and your personal performance (if applicable) will be considered in the context of your executive duties and any individual goals set for you, and your actual Bonus will be determined. Although as a general matter the Company expects to pay bonuses
at the target level in cases of satisfactory performance, it does not commit to do so. Your Bonus is fully discretionary, and your Bonus may be higher or lower than your Target Bonus. Your Bonus amount, if any, will be paid to you between
January 1 and March 15 of the calendar year immediately following the performance year in respect of which such Bonus is earned at the same time as bonuses are paid to other senior executives. 

3.3.      Long-term Incentive Compensation. For each year of the Term, you will be eligible to receive
long-term incentive compensation through a mix of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), other forms of equity compensation, cash-based long-term plans or other components as may be determined by the Compensation
Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (“Board”) from time to time in its sole discretion (“Long-term Incentive Awards”), subject to the terms of any Company plans governing the granting of Long-term Incentive Awards, and the terms of any related award agreements in accordance with the Company’s customary practices. 

3.4.      Total Compensation. Each year during the Term, the sum of your Base Salary, Target Bonus, and
target value of your Long-term Incentive Awards will be at least $2,500,000 (determined pursuant to the Company’s valuation methods) pro-rated with respect to partial years. Although as a general matter the Company expects to pay Bonuses and
award Long-term Incentive Awards at the target level in cases of satisfactory performance, it does not commit to do so. Your Bonus and Long-term Incentive Awards are fully discretionary. Accordingly, your Bonus and Long-term Incentive Awards may be
higher or lower than your target amounts, and the sum of your Base Salary, Bonus, and value of your Long-term Incentive Awards may be higher or lower than the amount provided for in the first sentence of this paragraph. 

  
 2 

 3.5.      Additional Compensation Plans. In addition to the
above compensation, and at the Company’s discretion, you will be eligible to participate in other compensation plans and programs available to executives at your level (“Additional Compensation Plans”). The Company shall maintain full
discretion to amend, modify or terminate such Additional Compensation Plans, and full discretion over the decision to award you compensation under such Additional Compensation Plans and the amount of such an award, if any. 

3.6.      Indemnification. You shall be entitled throughout the Term (and after the end of the Term, to
the extent relating to service during your employment) to the benefit of the indemnification provisions contained on the date hereof in the Restated Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws of Time Warner Cable Inc. (not including any amendments or
additions after the date hereof that limit or narrow, but including any that add to or broaden, the protection afforded to you by those provisions). 

4.       Termination. 

4.1.      Termination for Cause; Voluntary Resignation. The Company may terminate your employment for
“cause” and you may voluntarily resign your employment prior to the expiration of the Term. Upon the termination of your employment for cause or your voluntary resignation, all of the obligations under this Agreement shall terminate, other
than the Company’s obligations set forth below in Section 4.1.2 and the provisions identified in Section 10.13 (Survival). 

4.1.1.    Definition of Cause. Termination by the Company for “cause” shall mean termination because of
your (a) conviction (treating a nolo contendere plea as a conviction) of a felony (whether or not any right to appeal has been or may be exercised) other than as a result of a moving violation or a Limited Vicarious Liability (as defined
below); (b) willful failure or refusal without proper cause to perform your material duties with the Company, including your material obligations under this Agreement (other than any such failure resulting from your incapacity due to physical
or mental impairment); (c) willful misappropriation, embezzlement, fraud or any reckless or willful destruction of Company property having a significant adverse financial effect on the Company or a significant adverse effect on the
Company’s reputation; (d) willful and material breach of any statutory or common law duty of loyalty to the Company having a significant adverse financial effect on the Company or a 

  
 3 

 
significant adverse effect on the Company’s reputation; (e) material and willful breach of any of the restrictive covenants provided for in Section 8 (Restrictive Covenants) below;
or (f) a willful violation of any material Company policy, including the Company’s Standards of Business Conduct having a significant adverse financial effect on the Company or a significant adverse effect on the Company’s reputation.
Such termination shall be effected by written notice thereof delivered by the Company to you and shall be effective as of the date of such notice; provided however, that if (i) such termination is because of your willful failure
or refusal without proper cause to perform your material duties with the Company including any one or more of your material obligations under this Agreement, and (ii) within 15 days following the date of such notice you shall cease your refusal
and shall use your best efforts to perform such obligations, the termination shall not be effective. The term “Limited Vicarious Liability” shall mean any liability which is based on acts of the Company for which you are responsible solely
as a result of your office(s) with the Company; provided that (x) you are not directly involved in such acts and either had no prior knowledge of such actions or, upon obtaining such knowledge, promptly acted reasonably and in good faith to
attempt to prevent the acts causing such liability or (y) after consulting with the Company’s counsel, you reasonably believed that no law was being violated by such acts. 

4.1.2.    Obligations Upon Termination For Cause or Voluntary Resignation. In the event of your termination of
employment by the Company for cause or your voluntary resignation, without prejudice to any other rights or remedies that the Company may have at law or in equity, the Company shall have no further obligation to you other than (i) to pay Base
Salary through the effective date of termination, (ii) with respect to any rights you have pursuant to any insurance or other benefit plans or arrangements of the Company, (iii) with respect to any rights to indemnification that you may
have under Section 3.6 above, and (iv) if your employment is terminated pursuant to Sections 4.1.1(b) or 4.1.1(f) above, the Company shall pay you any Bonus for any year prior to the year in which such termination of employment occurs that
has been determined but not yet paid as of the date of such termination of employment. You hereby disclaim any right to receive a pro rata portion of any Bonus with respect to the year in which such termination or resignation occurs. Payments of
Base Salary required under this Section shall be made at the same time as such payments would otherwise have been made to you pursuant to Sections 3.1 (Base Salary) if your employment had not been terminated. 

4.2.      Termination by You for Good Reason and Termination by the Company Without Cause. Unless
previously terminated pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement, you shall have the right, exercisable by written notice to the Company, to terminate your employment for “Good Reason” effective 30 days after the giving of such
notice, if, at the 

  
 4 

 
time of the giving of such notice, the Company is in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement without your express written consent; provided however, with the
exception of clause (i) below, this Agreement shall not so terminate if such notice is the first such notice of termination delivered by you pursuant to this Section 4.2 and within such 30-day period the Company shall have cured all such
material breaches. Any such notice of termination for Good Reason must be provided to the Company within 90 days of any material breach of the Agreement. A material breach by the Company shall include, but not be limited to, (i) the
Company’s material violation of Sections 2(a) or 2(f) with respect to your authority, functions, duties, powers, responsibilities or place of employment, or (ii) the Company failing to cause any successor to all or substantially all of the
business and assets of the Company expressly to assume the obligations of the Company under this Agreement as provided by Section 10.4 (Assignability). The Company shall have the right, exercisable by written notice to you, to terminate your
employment under this Agreement without cause, which notice shall specify the effective date of such termination. 

4.2.1.    Termination Benefits. After the effective date of a termination of employment without cause or for Good
Reason pursuant to this Section 4.2, you shall receive Base Salary and a pro rata portion of your Bonus through the effective date of termination, subject to the actual achievement of the performance criteria established for the Company (and
the relevant Line of Business, if applicable) for the year of termination; provided that, any criteria based on individual performance shall be deemed satisfied to the same extent as the performance criteria based on Company
performance (and the relevant Line of Business performance, if applicable) or, if multiple performance criteria are used, the weighted average of such performance criteria, as determined by the Company. Your pro rata Bonus pursuant to this
Section 4.2.1 shall be paid to you at the times set forth in Section 4.5 (Payments). 

4.2.2.    Severance Benefits. After the effective date of a termination of employment without cause or for Good
Reason pursuant to Section 4.2, you shall continue to receive Base Salary and Bonus compensation and the post-termination benefits specified in Section 7.2 for a period ending on the date which is 24 months after the effective date of such
termination (the “Severance Period”). During the Severance Period you shall be entitled to receive, whether or not you become disabled during the Severance Period, whichever of the following produces greater total payments: (a) the
sum of (i) Base Salary at an annual rate equal to your Base Salary in effect immediately prior to the notice of termination, and (ii) an annual Bonus in respect of each calendar year or portion thereof (in which case a pro rata portion of
such Bonus will be payable) during the Severance Period equal to your Target Bonus in effect immediately prior to the notice of termination or (b) the sum of (i) Base Salary at an annual rate equal to your Base Salary in effect on the
Effective Date, and (ii) an annual Bonus in respect of 

  
 5 

 
each calendar year or portion thereof (in which case a pro rata portion of such Bonus will be payable) during the Severance Period equal to your Target Bonus in effect on the Effective Date.
Payments made pursuant to this Section 4.2.2 shall be paid to you at the times set forth in Section 4.5 (Payments). Effective as of the date of your termination of employment pursuant to Section 4.2, any outstanding Long-term
Incentive Awards granted during the Term shall immediately vest in full and any stock option awards granted during the Term shall become immediately exercisable for the time periods set forth in the respective stock option award agreements,
provided that, if any such Long-term Incentive Awards or stock options are subject to a performance requirement that has not been satisfied and certified by the Board of Directors on the date of your termination of employment, such
Long-term Incentive Awards or stock options shall not be immediately vested and exercisable, but shall become fully vested and exercisable upon satisfaction of such performance requirement and certification by the Board of Directors (or, if
applicable, upon deemed satisfaction of such performance requirements pursuant to the terms of the Long-term Incentive Awards or stock options). 

4.2.2.1.    Other Full-Time Employment or Death During the Severance Period. Except as provided in the following
sentence, if you accept other full-time employment, excluding employment with an affiliate (“Other Employment”) during the Severance Period or notify the Company in writing of your intention to terminate your
post- termination benefits under Section 7.2, effective upon the commencement of such Other Employment or the effective date of such termination as specified by you in such notice, whichever is
applicable, the continuation of the post-termination health and welfare benefits specified in Section 7.2 shall terminate, but you shall continue to receive the remaining payments you would have received pursuant to Section 4.2.2 at the
times specified therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you accept employment with any not-for-profit organization, as defined by Internal Revenue Code (“Code”) Section 501(c), then you shall be entitled to continue to receive the
post-termination health and welfare benefits specified in Section 7.2 and the payments as provided in the first sentence of Section 4.2.2. Furthermore, if you accept employment with any affiliate of the Company or die during the Severance
Period, then the payments provided for in Section 4.2.2 shall immediately cease and you (or your estate or designated beneficiary(ies)) shall not be entitled to any further payments; provided that, you shall be entitled to a
prorated Target Bonus for the year in which your employment by the affiliate commences or the year of your death, as applicable, based on the number of whole or partial months in such calendar year prior to the date of your employment by the
affiliate or the date of your death, as determined by the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “affiliate” shall mean any entity which, directly or indirectly, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the
Company. For purposes of enforcing the terms of this Section 4.2.2.1, you acknowledge and agree that you will provide the Company with written notice of your intent to 

  
 6 

 
accept Other Employment, other part-time employment, other employment by a not-for-profit entity, or employment by an affiliate, including, the identity of the entity or person you intend to be
employed by, the anticipated start date of your employment and a contact at such entity who can verify your employment terms. Any income from any Other Employment you may obtain shall not be applied to reduce the Company’s obligations under
this Agreement. 
 4.2.3.    Termination of Employment Upon Change In Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
your employment is terminated pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof (a) within 24 months following a Change In Control (as defined in the Time Warner Cable 2011 Stock Incentive Plan or any successor plan) or (b) following the Company’s
execution of an applicable merger, acquisition, sale or other agreement providing for a Change In Control (a “CIC Agreement”) but before the date that is 24 months after a Change In Control (or, if earlier, the expiration or termination of
the CIC Agreement without a Change In Control), you shall (i) receive the severance benefits provided in Section 4.2.2, provided that, for purposes of this sub-clause (i) and sub-clause
(ii) of this Section only, your Severance Period under such circumstances shall be 36 months rather than 24 months, and (ii) receive the post-termination benefits provided in Section 7.2. Any employment terminations for
“cause” pursuant to Sections 4.1.1(b) or 4.1.1(f) above within 24 months following a Change In Control shall be deemed terminations without cause for purposes of severance benefits (as provided in sub-clauses (i) and (ii) above)
and treatment of the Company’s (or any successor’s) outstanding equity awards or other Long-term Incentive Awards that are outstanding as of the employment termination date. 

4.3.      Expiration of Term. If at the expiration of the Term, your employment shall not have been
previously terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, no Disability Period is then in effect and the parties shall not have agreed in a signed writing to an extension or renewal of this Agreement or on the terms of a new employment
agreement, then this Agreement shall expire and your employment shall continue on an at-will basis. As an at-will employee, upon the termination of your employment without cause, (a) you shall be eligible for participation in any
executive-level severance plan or program offered by the Company that will provide a minimum severance benefit equal to six (6) months Base Salary and Target Bonus, subject to your execution and delivery of a full release to the Company
substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex A or such other form of release as may be implemented for such executive-level severance plan or program, and (b) you shall receive immediate vesting in full of any outstanding equity awards or
other Long-term Incentive Awards granted during the Term and any stock option awards granted during the Term shall become immediately exercisable for the time periods set forth in the respective stock option award agreements, provided
that, if any such Long-term Incentive Awards or stock options are subject to a performance requirement that has not been satisfied and certified by the Board of Directors 

  
 7 

 
on the date of your termination of employment, such Long-term Incentive Awards or stock options shall not be immediately vested and exercisable, but shall become fully vested and exercisable upon
satisfaction of such performance requirement and certification by the Board of Directors (or, if applicable, upon deemed satisfaction of such performance requirements pursuant to the terms of the Long-term Incentive Awards or stock options). 

4.4.      Release. A condition precedent to the Company’s obligation to make the payments
associated with a termination of employment pursuant to Sections 4.2 (Termination Without Cause or For Good Reason), 4.3 (Expiration of Term) and 5.1 (Disability) shall be your execution and delivery of a release of all claims substantially in the
form attached hereto as Annex A, as may be revised from time to time as necessary to reflect changes in federal or state laws to ensure that such release is valid. Such release must be signed by you and returned to the Company no later than 21 days
(or, if required by law, 45 days) after the date you receive the release. If you shall fail to execute and deliver such release within the designated timeframe, or if you revoke such release as provided therein, then you shall not be entitled to any
severance benefits provided in Section 4.2.2 or Section 4.3 or Disability Period (defined below) payments under the Agreement and you shall reimburse the Company for any such payments made to you in anticipation of your execution of the
release or prior to the revocation of such release. 
 4.5.      Payments. Payments of Base Salary and
Bonus required to be made to you after a termination of employment pursuant to Sections 4, 5 or 6 shall be made at the same times as such payments otherwise would have been paid to you pursuant to Sections 3.1 (Base Salary) and 3.2 (Bonus) if your
employment had not been terminated, or such other time as required for compliance with Code Section 409A as set forth in Section 10.15 below. 

4.6.      Code §§ 280G and 4999. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, to the extent that any amount, stock option, restricted stock, RSUs, other equity awards or benefits paid or distributed to you pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement or arrangement between the Company and you (collectively,
the “280G Payments”) (a) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (b) but for this Section 4.6, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the
Code, then the 280G Payments shall be payable either (i) in full or (ii) in such lesser amount which would result in no portion of such 280G Payments being subject to excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code; whichever of the
foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income or excise taxes (including the excise tax imposed by Section 4999) results in your receipt on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of benefits under
this Agreement, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such benefits may be 

  
 8 

 
taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. Unless you and the Company otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section shall be made in writing by an independent public
accountant selected by the Company (the “Accountants”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon you and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section, the Accountants may
make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and you shall furnish to the Accountants
such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section. The Company shall bear all costs the Accountants may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by
this Section, as well as any reasonable legal or accountant expenses, or any additional taxes, that you may incur as a result of any calculation errors made by the Accountant and/or the Company in connection with the Code Section 4999 excise
tax analysis contemplated by this Section. 
 4.6.1.    Additional 280G Payments. If you receive reduced 280G
Payments by reason of this Section 4.6 and it is established pursuant to a final determination of the court or an Internal Revenue Service proceeding that you could have received a greater amount without resulting in an excise tax, then the
Company shall promptly thereafter pay you the aggregate additional amount which could have been paid without resulting in an excise tax as soon as practicable. 

4.6.2.    Review of Accountant Determinations. The parties agree to cooperate generally and in good faith with
respect to (i) the review and determinations to be undertaken by the Accountants as set forth in this Section 4.6 and (ii) any audit, claim or other proceeding brought by the Internal Revenue Service or similar state authority to
review or contest or otherwise related to the determinations of the Accountants as provided for in this Section 4.6, including any claim or position taken by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the payment by you of
any additional excise tax, over and above the amounts of excise tax established under the procedure set forth in this Section 4.6. 

4.6.3.    Order of 280G Payment Reduction. The reduction of 280G Payments, if applicable, shall be effected in the
following order (unless you, to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code, elect another method of reduction by written notice to the Company prior to the Section 280G event): (i) any cash severance payments, (ii) any
other cash amounts payable to you, (iii) any health and welfare or similar benefits valued as parachute payments, (iv) acceleration of vesting of any stock options for which the exercise price exceeds the then fair market value of the
underlying stock, in order of the option tranches with the largest 

  
 9 

 
Section 280G parachute value, (v) acceleration of vesting of any equity award that is not a stock option and (vi) acceleration of vesting of any stock options for which the
exercise price is less than the fair market value of the underlying stock in such manner as would net you the largest remaining spread value if the options were all exercised as of the Section 280G event. 

5.       Disability. 

5.1.      Disability Payments. If during the Term and prior to the delivery of any notice of termination
of employment pursuant to Section 4, you become physically or mentally disabled, whether totally or partially, so that you are unable to engage in substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental
impairment, which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than twelve (12) months, the Company shall, nevertheless, continue to pay your full compensation (including Bonus) through the
last day of the sixth consecutive month of disability or the date on which any shorter periods of disability shall have equaled a total of six months in any twelve-month period (such last day or date being referred to herein as the “Disability
Date”), in lieu of or offset by any payments received by you from Worker’s Compensation insurance, Social Security, and short- or long-term disability insurance benefits maintained by the Company; provided that, if you die
prior to the Disability Date, you are not entitled to any further payments after such date, except as provided in Section 6 below. If you have not resumed your usual duties on or prior to the Disability Date, the Company shall terminate your
employment effective as of the Disability Date and pay you a pro rata Bonus based on actual achievement of the performance criteria established for the Company (and the relevant Line of Business, if applicable); provided that, if
applicable, any criteria based on individual performance shall be deemed satisfied to the same extent as the performance criteria based on Company performance (and the relevant Line of Business performance, if applicable) or, if multiple performance
criteria are used, the weighted average of such performance criteria, as determined by the Company, for the year in which the Disability Date occurs. Thereafter, the Company shall pay you disability benefits for a period of time equal to the
Severance Period defined in Section 4.2.2 (the “Disability Period”), in an annual amount equal to the greater of 75% of your Base Salary and Target Bonus in effect as of the Disability Date or 75% of your Base Salary and Target Bonus
in effect as of the Effective Date. All payments pursuant to this Section 5.1 shall be made at the times specified in Section 4.5 (Payments). 

5.2.      Recovery From Disability. If during the Disability Period you shall fully recover from your
disability, the Company shall have the right (exercisable within 60 days after notice from you of such recovery), but not the obligation, to reinstate you to full-time employment at your compensation rate in effect as of the Disability Date. If the
Company elects 

  
 10 

 
to rehire you, then the Disability Period payments described in Section 5.1 shall cease and this Agreement shall be reinstated in all respects and the Term shall not be extended by virtue of
the occurrence of the Disability Period. If the Company elects not to rehire you, during any balance of your Disability Period, you shall be entitled to receipt of the payments described in Section 5.1 and you may obtain Other Employment,
subject, however, to the following: (i) you shall perform advisory services to the Company during any balance of the Disability Period and (ii) you shall not be entitled to the post-termination health and welfare benefits provided in
Section 7.2 if you obtain Other Employment during the balance of your Disability Period. The advisory services referred to in clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence shall consist of rendering advice concerning strategic matters
as requested by the Company, but you shall not be required to devote more than five days (up to eight hours per day) each month to such services, which shall be performed at a time and place mutually convenient to both parties. Any income from any
Other Employment you may obtain during the balance of the Disability Period shall not be applied to reduce the Company’s obligations under this Agreement. 

5.3.      Other Disability Provisions. The Company shall be entitled to deduct from all payments to be
made to you during the Disability Period pursuant to this Section 5 an amount equal to all disability payments received by you during the Disability Period from any Worker’s Compensation insurance, Social Security and short- or long-term
disability insurance benefits maintained by the Company; provided however, that for so long as, and to the extent that, proceeds paid to you from such disability insurance policies are not includible in your income for federal income
tax purposes, the Company’s deduction with respect to such payments shall be equal to the product of (i) such payments and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is one and the denominator of which is one less the maximum marginal
rate of federal income taxes applicable to individuals at the time of receipt of such payments. For purposes of clarity, you acknowledge and agree that Sections 4.2 (Termination Without Cause or For Good Reason) and 4.3 (Expiration of Term) shall
not apply during the Disability Period and you shall not be entitled to any other notice and severance benefits under this Agreement or otherwise, or to receive or be paid for any accrued vacation time or unused sabbatical, unless payment of such
accrued, but unused vacation benefits is otherwise required by state law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you die during the Disability Period, the payments provided for in Section 5.1 shall immediately cease and your estate (or designated
beneficiary(ies)) shall not be entitled to any further payments; provided that, you shall be entitled to 75% of a prorated Target Bonus for the year in which your death occurs, based on the number of whole or partial months in such
calendar year prior to the date of your death, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, calculated using the greater of your Target Bonus in effect for the year in which your death occurs or your Target Bonus in effect for the year in
which the Effective Date occurs. 

  
 11 

 6.       Death. If you die during the Term, this
Agreement and all obligations of the Company to make any payments hereunder shall terminate except that your estate (or a designated beneficiary) shall be entitled to receive Base Salary to the last day of the month in which your death occurs and
Bonus compensation (at the time bonuses are normally paid) based on the actual achievement of the performance criteria established for the Company (and the relevant Line of Business, if applicable); provided that, if applicable, any
criteria based on individual performance shall be deemed satisfied to the same extent as the performance criteria based on Company performance (and the relevant Line of Business performance, if applicable) or, if multiple performance criteria are
used, the weighted average of such performance criteria, as determined by the Company, but prorated according to the number of whole or partial months you were employed by the Company in such calendar year. 

7.       Other Benefits. 

7.1.      Generally Available Benefits. To the extent that (a) you are eligible under the general
provisions thereof (including without limitation, any plan provision providing for participation to be limited to persons who were employees of the Company or certain of its subsidiaries prior to a specific point in time) and (b) the Company
maintains such plan or program for the benefit of its executives, during the Term and so long as you are an employee of the Company, you shall be eligible to participate in any pension, excess plan, savings or similar plan or program, group life
insurance, hospitalization, medical, vision, dental, accident, disability or similar plan or program, and courtesy services of the Company now existing or established hereafter for similarly situated executives. 

7.2.      Benefits After a Termination or Disability. During the Severance Period or the Disability
Period, unless you accept Other Employment as described in Sections 4.2.2 (Severance Benefits) or 5.2 (Recovery From Disability), you shall continue to be eligible to participate in the Company’s health and welfare benefit plans, or comparable
arrangements that may be implemented for former employees covered by severance arrangements, to the extent such benefits are maintained in effect by the Company for its executives; provided however, (a) you shall not be entitled
to any additional awards or grants under any stock option, restricted stock, RSU or other stock based incentive plan or Additional Compensation Plans, (b) any equity awards or other Long-term Incentive Awards granted on or after the Effective
Date and during the Term shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the respective award agreements and the vesting provisions set forth in Section 4.2.2 and this Section 7.2, (c) during the Term, but only for equity awards
granted after the Effective Date, the Company shall not be permitted to determine that your employment was terminated for “Performance” within the meaning of any stock option, restricted stock, RSU, or other equity compensation agreement
between you and 

  
 12 

 
the Company, (d) you shall not be eligible for continuation of Company car, automobile allowance, mobile phone, and/or country club membership reimbursements or any other similar
discretionary allowances, to the extent applicable, during or after the Severance Period or Disability Period, or any other termination of employment under this Agreement. Effective with your termination of employment pursuant to Sections 4, 5 or 6,
you will no longer be permitted to contribute to or receive a Company match in the TWC Savings Plan, or any successor plan, and you will no longer accrue benefit service under the Time Warner Cable Pension Plan or the Time Warner Cable Excess
Benefit Pension Plan, or any successor plans, and your rights under those plans will be determined in accordance with the terms of those plans and applicable law. Unless otherwise stated in this Agreement, your rights to benefits and payments under
any benefit plans or any insurance or other death benefit plans or arrangements of the Company or under any stock option, restricted stock, RSU, or other equity compensation, Additional Compensation Plans, or any management incentive or other plan
of the Company shall be determined in accordance with the terms and provisions of such plans and any related award agreements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, your continued participation in the Company’s benefit plans shall be subject to the
limitations of applicable law. 
 7.3.      Payments in Lieu of Other Benefits. In the event your
employment with the Company is terminated pursuant to any section of this Agreement, you shall not be entitled to notice and severance under the Company’s general employee policies or other executive severance plans or programs, or to be paid
for any accrued vacation time or unused sabbatical (unless payment of such accrued, but unused vacation benefits is otherwise required by state law), the payments provided for in such sections in this Agreement being in lieu thereof. 

8.       Restrictive Covenants. 

8.1.      Confidentiality Covenant. You acknowledge that your employment by the Company will, throughout
the term of your employment, bring you into close contact with many confidential affairs of the Company, its affiliates and third parties doing business with the Company, including information about costs, profits, markets, sales, products, key
personnel, pricing policies, operational methods, technical processes and other business affairs and methods and other information not readily available to the public, and plans for future development. You further acknowledge that the services to be
performed under this Agreement are of a special, unique, unusual, extraordinary and intellectual character. You further acknowledge that the business of the Company and its affiliates is international in scope, that its products and services are
marketed throughout the world, that the Company and its affiliates compete in nearly all of its business activities with other entities that are or could be located in nearly any part of the world and that the nature of your services, position and
expertise are such that you are capable of competing with the Company and its affiliates from nearly any location in the world. In recognition of the foregoing, you covenant and agree: 

  
 13 

 8.1.1.    You shall use all reasonable efforts to keep secret all
confidential matters of the Company, its affiliates and third parties and shall not disclose such matters to anyone outside of the Company and its affiliates, or to anyone inside the Company and its affiliates who does not have a need to know or use
such information, and shall not use such information for personal benefit or the benefit of a third party, either during or after the Term, except with the Company’s written consent, provided that (i) you shall have no such obligation to
the extent such matters are or become publicly known other than as a result of your breach of your obligations hereunder, (ii) you may, after giving prior notice to the Company to the extent practicable under the circumstances, disclose such
matters to the extent required by applicable laws or governmental regulations or judicial or regulatory process, and (iii) to the extent necessary to enforce the terms of this Agreement; and 

8.1.2.    You shall deliver promptly to the Company on termination of your employment, or at any other time the Company
may so request, all memoranda, notes, records, reports and other documents (and all copies thereof) relating to the Company’s and its affiliates’ businesses, which you obtained while employed by, or otherwise serving or acting on behalf
of, the Company and which you may then possess or have under your control. 

8.2.      Non-solicitation. During your employment with the Company and its affiliates, and if your
employment terminates for any reason, whether during or after the Term, including your voluntary resignation or retirement, for a period of one year after such termination, without the prior written consent of the Company, you shall not directly or
indirectly, (i) solicit, induce, encourage or attempt to influence any customer, independent contractor, joint venturer or supplier of the Company to cease to do business with or to otherwise terminate his, her or its relationship with the
Company, (ii) solicit or hire or cause any entity of which you are an affiliate to solicit or hire, any person who was a full-time employee of the Company at the date of your termination of employment or within six months prior thereto, but
such prohibition shall not apply to your secretary or executive assistant, any other employee eligible to receive overtime pay or any former employee of the Company who was terminated involuntarily by the Company, so long as you were not, directly
or indirectly, involved in the circumstances giving rise to such termination. Nothing in this Section 8.2 shall restrict your ability to engage in general advertising not targeted at Company employees or serve as a reference for an employee
with regard to an entity with which you are not affiliated. 

  
 14 

 8.3.      Non-disparagement. During your employment with
the Company and its affiliates, and if your employment terminates for any reason, whether during or after the Term, including your voluntary resignation or retirement, at any time after your termination of employment, you shall not, directly or
indirectly, disparage, make negative statements about or act in any manner which is intended to damage the goodwill of, or the business or personal reputations of the Company or any of its affiliates, or those individuals who serve or served as an
officer or director of the Company or any of its affiliates on or after the Effective Date. Nothing in this Section 8.3 shall prohibit or bar you from providing truthful testimony in any legal proceeding, making any truthful disclosure required
under law or from enforcing any rights under this Agreement. 
 8.4.      Non-compete. During your
employment with the Company and its affiliates, and if your employment terminates for any reason, whether during or after the Term, including your voluntary resignation or retirement, for a period of time equal to the Severance Period defined in
Section 4.2.2 (whether or not you are eligible for or receive any severance benefits under Section 4.2.2) or, if you are employed at will, six (6) months after your termination of employment for any reason (the “Non-compete
Period”), you shall not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Chief Executive Officer render any services to, or act in any capacity for, any Competitive Entity, or acquire any interest of any type in any Competitive
Entity; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to prohibit you from acquiring, (a) solely as an investment and through market purchases, securities of any Competitive Entity which are registered under Section 12(b) or
12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and which are publicly traded, so long as you are not part of any control group of such Competitive Entity and such securities, including converted securities, do not constitute more than one percent
(1%) of the outstanding voting power of that entity and (b) securities of any Competitive Entity that are not publicly traded, so long as you are not part of any control group of such Competitive Entity and such securities, including
converted securities, do not constitute more than three percent (3%) of the outstanding voting power of that entity. For purposes of the foregoing, the following shall be deemed to be a Competitive Entity: (i) any United States based
entity a material portion of the business of which is any line of business that comprises a material portion of the business in which the Company engages in, conducts or, to your knowledge, has definitive plans to engage in or conduct and that the
Company reasonably expects will comprise a material portion of its business within the succeeding 12 months, whether that business is conducted directly by such entity or a subsidiary of such entity (a “Covered Business”); provided
that, you may be employed by or provide services to an ultimate parent company that owns a subsidiary which is materially engaged in a Covered Business, so long as you demonstrate to the Company’s reasonable satisfaction (e.g. represent
and warrant to the Company in writing and describe the nature of your responsibilities) that you do not and will 

  
 15 

 
not, directly or indirectly, provide any services or advice to, have any responsibility for, or supervision of, any subsidiary materially engaged in a Covered Business, (ii) any entity which
has a material commercial relationship with the Company and could reasonably derive a material unfair advantage in dealings with the Company because of confidential information you possess about the Company’s products, services, business
strategies, financial condition, terms of agreements or other information, or (iii) any operating business that is engaged in or conducted by the Company as to which, to your knowledge, the Company covenants, in writing, not to compete with in
connection with the disposition of such business; provided that, this Section 8.4 (iii) shall only apply during your active employment with the Company and its affiliates. In evaluating any requests for written consent of the
Chief Executive Officer of the Company to be relieved, in whole or in part, of your obligations under this Section 8.4, the Chief Executive Officer shall consider the nature of your position with the Company, the confidential and proprietary
information to which you were privy during the course of your employment with the Company, the nature of the employment and position you are seeking with a Competitive Entity, the extent to which you can perform services for any such Competitive
Entity without disclosing, using or putting at risk any trade secrets or confidential, proprietary information of the Company, and any other relevant factors, in all instances looking to make decisions that reasonably and properly protect the trade
secrets and other confidential, proprietary information of the Company. 
 8.5.      Ownership of Work
Product. You acknowledge that during your employment, you may conceive of, discover, invent or create inventions, improvements, new contributions, literary property, material, ideas and discoveries, whether patentable or copyrightable or not
(all of the foregoing being collectively referred to herein as “Work Product”), and that various business opportunities shall be presented to you by reason of your employment by the Company. You acknowledge that all of the foregoing shall
be owned by and belong exclusively to the Company and that you shall have no personal interest therein, provided that they are either related in any manner to the business (commercial or experimental) of the Company, or are, in the case of Work
Product, conceived or made on the Company’s time or with the use of the Company’s facilities or materials, or, in the case of business opportunities, are presented to you for the possible interest or participation of the Company. You shall
(i) promptly disclose any such Work Product and business opportunities to the Company; (ii) assign to the Company, upon request and without additional compensation, the entire rights to such Work Product and business opportunities;
(iii) sign all papers necessary to carry out the foregoing; and (iv) give testimony in support of your inventorship or creation in any appropriate case. You agree that you will not assert any rights to any Work Product or business
opportunity as having been made or acquired by you prior to the date of this Agreement except for Work Product or business opportunities, if any, disclosed to and acknowledged by the Company in writing prior to the date hereof. 

  
 16 

 8.6.      Reasonable Restrictive Covenants. You acknowledge
that the restrictions contained in this Section 8, in light of the nature of the Company’s business and your position and responsibilities, are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Company. You further
acknowledge that the restrictions contained in this Section 8 shall survive the termination of your employment as provided in Section 10.13 (Survival), including your voluntary resignation or retirement, and/or the expiration or
termination of this Agreement. 
 9.       Notices. All notices, requests, consents and other
communications required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be effective only if given in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered personally or sent by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service, or
mailed first-class, postage prepaid, by registered or certified mail, as follows (or to such other or additional address as either party shall designate by notice in writing to the other in accordance herewith):

10.       General. 

10.1.     Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the
substantive laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of laws rules, as applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely in New York. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement that is not resolved in
arbitration pursuant to Section 10.7 shall be adjudicated in a court located in New York, New York, and the parties irrevocably consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue of such court. 

  
 17 

 10.2.     Captions. The section headings contained herein are for
reference purposes only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. 
 10.3.    
No Other Representations. No representation, promise or inducement has been made by either party that is not embodied in this Agreement, and neither party shall be bound by or be liable for any alleged representation, promise or inducement
not so set forth. 
 10.4.     Assignability. This Agreement and your rights and obligations hereunder may not
be assigned by you and except as specifically contemplated in this Agreement, neither you, your legal representative nor any beneficiary designated by you shall have any right, without the prior written consent of the Company, to assign, transfer,
pledge, hypothecate, anticipate or commute to any person or entity any payment due in the future pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, and any attempt to do so shall be void and shall not be recognized by the Company. The Company shall assign
its rights together with its obligations hereunder in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s business and assets, whether by merger, purchase of stock or assets or otherwise, as the
case may be. Upon any such assignment, the Company shall cause any such successor expressly to assume such obligations, and such rights and obligations shall inure to and be binding upon any such successor. 

10.5.     Amendments; Waivers. This Agreement may be amended, modified, superseded, cancelled, renewed or extended
and the terms or covenants hereof may be waived only by written instrument executed by both of the parties hereto, or in the case of a waiver, by the party waiving compliance. The failure of either party at any time or times to require performance
of any provision hereof shall in no manner affect such party’s right at a later time to enforce the same. No waiver by either party of the breach of any term or covenant contained in this Agreement, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed
to be, or construed as, a further or continuing waiver of any such breach, or a waiver of the breach of any other term or covenant contained in this Agreement. 

10.6.     Remedies. 

10.6.1. Specific Remedies. In addition to such other rights and remedies as the Company may have at equity or in law with respect to
any breach of this Agreement, if you commit a material breach of any of the provisions of Section 8 (Restrictive Covenants), the Company shall have the right and remedy to have such provisions specifically enforced by any court located in New
York, New York having equity jurisdiction, it being acknowledged and agreed that any such breach or threatened breach will cause irreparable injury 

  
 18 

 
to the Company; provided that, for the non-compete covenant set forth in Section 8.4, the right to specific enforcement shall only apply to the first twelve months of the
Non-compete Period. Upon a judicial determination that any of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 8 are overbroad in duration or scope, this Agreement shall be deemed to be modified so as to effect the original intent of the parties
as closely as possible to the end that the restrictive covenants contemplated in Section 8 are fulfilled to the greatest extent possible. 

10.6.2. Reduction of Severance Payments and Forfeiture of Long-term Incentive Awards.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if you breach any of the provisions of Section 8 during the relevant restricted periods provided for therein, as determined by the Company, all payment and other obligations of
the Company pursuant to Sections 4.2.2 (Severance Benefits), 4.2.3 (Termination Upon CIC), 4.3 (Expiration of Term), 5.1 (Disability Payments) or 7.2 (Benefits After Termination) shall cease as of the date of the breach and you agree to forfeit such
payments and obligations while in breach of the provisions of Section 8; provided that, the balance of any remaining payments or other obligations due you pursuant to Sections 4.2.2, 4.2.3, 4.3, 5.1 or 7.2, if any, shall be
provided to you as scheduled if you cease to engage in the conduct that violates the provisions of Section 8 (whether at the request of the Company, as the result of an injunction or otherwise). Furthermore, any breach of the provisions of
Section 8 during the relevant restricted periods provided for therein shall result in the consequences, if any, provided for under the terms of your Long-term Incentive Awards. Nothing in this Section 10.6.2 shall limit your repayment
obligations to the Company, if any, under Section 10.6.3 below. 
 10.6.3. Incentive Compensation Forfeiture. In addition to
the remedies available to the Company pursuant to Sections 10.6.1 and 10.6.2 above, you agree that in the event the Company is required to file an adverse restatement of earnings and it is determined by the Board or a committee thereof that
(a) you were involved, had knowledge of or, by virtue of your position and duties, should have known that the earnings at issue were false or misleading when originally filed, and (b) the false or misleading earnings filed resulted in
compensation to executives that otherwise would not have been earned, vested or paid, then the Company shall be entitled to any one or all of the following additional remedies, as provided below, or some lesser amount determined by the Board or a
committee thereof in its sole discretion: 
 10.6.3.1.     Bonus or Other Cash Incentive Repayments. You shall
repay to the Company, by certified check, within sixty (60) days of a written demand, the amount by which your Bonus or other cash incentive compensation payments made during the Forfeiture Period (defined below) would have been reduced had the
Company not relied on 

  
 19 

 
the false or misleading financial statements, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion. For purposes of this Agreement, “Forfeiture Period” shall mean the three year period
following the last day of the fiscal year of the financial statements restated by the Company; provided that, such Forfeiture Period shall not apply if the adverse restatement is filed by the Company more than three years after the
last day of the fiscal year of the restated financial statements. 
 10.6.3.2.     Performance-Based Equity Award
Repayments. In regard only to any performance-based equity awards granted to you by the Company, you shall repay to the Company, by certified check, within sixty (60) days after a written demand is made by the Company, an amount equal to
(a) the total amount of Award Gain (as defined herein) realized by you during the Forfeiture Period upon each exercise of such performance-based options and the value you have received with respect to any settlement or payment in connection
with any other performance-based equity awards, and (b) the fair market value of all other performance-based equity awards granted to you or which have become vested during the Forfeiture Period; provided that, the return to the
Company of such other performance-based equity awards shall satisfy your repayment obligations with respect to amounts owed pursuant to this sub-clause (b); provided further that, your repayment obligations under this
Section 10.6.3.2 shall be limited to the extent that the granting or value of the performance-based equity awards was impacted by the Company’s reliance on the false or misleading financial statements during the Forfeiture Period.
“Award Gain” shall mean, with respect to performance-based equity awards only, the product of (x) the fair market value per share of stock at the date of such option exercise or exercise of other equity awards (without regard to any
subsequent change in the market price of such share of stock) minus the exercise price times (y) the number of shares as to which the options and other equity awards were exercised at that date. 

10.6.3.3.     Incentive Compensation Forfeiture Offset. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to
the contrary, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall have the right to offset against any amounts owed to you by the Company any repayment obligations or liabilities that you may have under Sections 10.6.3.1 and 10.6.3.2 of
this Agreement. 
 10.6.3.4.     Other Incentive Compensation Repayments. You agree that, if you are or become
an executive officer subject to the incentive compensation repayment requirements of The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, you will enter into an amendment to this Section or a separate written agreement with the Company to
comply with the Act and any regulations thereunder if required by the Act or any regulations thereunder. 

  
 20 

 10.7.     Resolution of Disputes. Except as provided in the preceding
Section 10.6 (Remedies), any dispute or controversy arising with respect to this Agreement and your employment hereunder (whether based on contract or tort or upon any federal, state or local statute, including but not limited to claims
asserted under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, any state Fair Employment Practices Act and/or the Americans with Disability Act) shall, at the election of either you or the Company, be
submitted to JAMS for resolution in arbitration in accordance with the rules and procedures of JAMS. Either party shall make such election by delivering written notice thereof to the other party at any time (but not later than 45 days after such
party receives notice of the commencement of any administrative or regulatory proceeding or the filing of any lawsuit relating to any such dispute or controversy) and thereupon any such dispute or controversy shall be resolved only in accordance
with the provisions of this Section 10.7. Any such proceedings shall take place in New York, New York before a single arbitrator (rather than a panel of arbitrators), pursuant to any streamlined or expedited (rather than a comprehensive)
arbitration process, before a non-judicial (rather than a judicial) arbitrator, and in accordance with an arbitration process which, in the judgment of such arbitrator, shall have the effect of reasonably limiting or reducing the cost of such
arbitration. The resolution of any such dispute or controversy by the arbitrator appointed in accordance with the procedures of JAMS shall be final and binding. Judgment upon the award rendered by such arbitrator may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction thereof, and the parties consent to the jurisdiction of the New York courts for this purpose. If you shall be the prevailing party in such arbitration, the Company shall promptly pay, upon your demand, all reasonable legal fees, court
costs and other reasonable costs and expenses incurred by you in any legal action seeking to enforce the award in any court. 

10.8.     Beneficiaries. Whenever this Agreement provides for any payment to your estate, such payment may be made
instead to such beneficiary or beneficiaries as you may designate by written notice to the Company. You shall have the right to revoke any such designation and to redesignate a beneficiary or beneficiaries by written notice to the Company (and to
any applicable insurance company) to such effect. 
 10.9.     No Conflict. You represent and warrant to the
Company that this Agreement is legal, valid and binding upon you and the execution of this Agreement and the performance of your obligations hereunder does not and will not constitute a breach of, or conflict with the terms or provisions of, any
agreement or understanding to which you are a party (including, without limitation, any other employment agreement). The Company represents and warrants to you that this Agreement is legal, valid and binding upon the Company and the execution of
this Agreement and the performance of the Company’s obligations hereunder does not and will not constitute a breach of, or conflict with the terms or provisions of, any agreement or understanding to which the Company is a party. 

  
 21 

 10.10.   Withholding Taxes. Payments made to you pursuant to this Agreement
shall be subject to withholding and social security taxes and other ordinary and customary payroll deductions. 
 10.11.  
Offset. Except as provided in Sections 5.1 (Disability Payments), 10.6.3.3 (Incentive Compensation Forfeiture Offset) and the Company’s general right to offset any payments received by you under this Agreement by any disability benefits
you may receive during the Term or any Severance Period from Worker’s Compensation insurance, Social Security disability, and short- and long-term disability insurance benefits maintained by the Company, neither you nor the Company shall have
any right to offset any amounts owed by one party hereunder against amounts owed or claimed to be owed to such party, whether pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, and you and the Company shall make all the payments provided for in this Agreement
in a timely manner. 
 10.12.   Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid, the remainder of
this Agreement shall not be affected thereby; provided however, that the parties shall negotiate in good faith with respect to equitable modification of the provision or application thereof held to be invalid. To the extent that it may
effectively do so under applicable law, each party hereby waives any provision of law which renders any provision of this Agreement invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect. 

10.13.   Survival. 

10.13.1.        Sections 3.6 (Indemnification), 4.5 (Payments), 4.6 (Code §280G), 8 (Restrictive
Covenants), 9 (Notices) and 10 (General) shall survive any termination of your employment by the Company for cause or your voluntary resignation pursuant to Section 4.1 and the expiration of the Term pursuant to Section 4.3. 

10.13.2.        Sections 3.6 (Indemnification), 4.4 (Release), 4.5, 4.6, 7.2 (Benefits After Term),
8, 9 and 10 shall survive any termination of your employment by the Company without cause, by you for Good Reason, or due to your disability pursuant to Sections 4.2 or 5. 

10.13.3.        If your employment continues after the Term on an at-will basis, Sections 4.3(a) and
4.3(b) shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

 10.15.   Compliance With Section 409A. This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code and
will be interpreted, administered and operated in a manner consistent with that intent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at the time of your separation from service with the Company you are a “specified employee” as
defined in Section 409A of the Code (and the regulations thereunder) and any payments or benefits otherwise payable hereunder as a result of such separation from service are subject to Section 409A of the Code, then the Company will defer
the commencement of the payment of any such payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to you) until the date that is six months following your separation from service with the
Company (or the earliest date as is permitted under Section 409A of the Code), and the Company will pay any such delayed amounts in a lump sum at such time. If any other payments of money or other benefits due to you hereunder could cause the
application of an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, such payments or other benefits shall be deferred if deferral will make such payment or other benefits compliant under Section 409A of the Code, or otherwise
such payment or other benefits shall be restructured, to the extent 

  
 23 

 
possible, in a manner, determined by the Company, that does not cause such an accelerated or additional tax. To the extent any reimbursements or in-kind benefits due to you under this Agreement
constitute “deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, any such reimbursements or in-kind benefits shall be paid to you in a manner consistent with Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(l)(iv). Each payment made under this
Agreement shall be designated as a “separate payment” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. References to “termination of employment” and similar terms used in this Agreement are intended to refer to
“separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code. The Company shall consult with you in good faith regarding the implementation of the
provisions of this Section 10.15; provided that, neither the Company nor any of its employees or representatives shall have any liability to you with respect to thereto. 

10.16.   Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding of the parties relating to the
subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, arrangements and understandings, written or oral, between the parties; provided however, the terms and conditions of any offer letter between you and the Company in
connection with your initial employment with the Company shall not be superseded and shall continue to apply solely with respect to any one-time, non-recurring payment provided for under such offer letter, including, but not limited to, potential
repayment of such one-time payment in the event of your termination of employment. 
 10.17.   Counterparts; Electronic
Delivery. This Agreement may be executed in a number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same Agreement, and such executed counterpart may be delivered in original form or by
electronic means.
