“(e) ‘Change in Control’ means: 
 (i) the acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) (a ‘Person’) of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of
Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 25% or more of either (A) the then outstanding Registered Shares of the Company (the ‘Outstanding Parent Shares’) or (B) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting
securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the ‘Outstanding Parent Voting Securities’); provided, however, that for purposes of this subparagraph (e)(i) the following acquisitions shall not

(ii) individuals who, as of the date of this Agreement, constitute the Board (the ‘Incumbent Board’) cease for
any reason to constitute a majority of such Board; provided, however, that any individual becoming a director of the Company subsequent to the date hereof whose election, or nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders, was approved by
a vote of a majority of the directors of the Company then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial
assumption of office occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened election contest or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board; or 

(iii) consummation of a reorganization, merger, amalgamation or consolidation of the Company, with or without approval by
the shareholders of the Company, in each case, unless, following such reorganization, merger, amalgamation or consolidation, (A) more than 50% of, respectively, the then

respectively, of the Outstanding Parent Shares and Outstanding Parent Voting Securities immediately prior to such reorganization, merger, amalgamation or consolidation in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to
such reorganization, merger, amalgamation or consolidation, of the Outstanding Parent Shares and Outstanding Parent Voting Securities, as the case may be, (B) no Person (excluding the Company, any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the
Company or such company resulting from such reorganization, merger, amalgamation or consolidation, and any Person beneficially owning, immediately prior to such reorganization, merger, amalgamation or consolidation, directly or indirectly, 25% or
more of the Outstanding Parent Shares or Outstanding Parent Voting Securities, as the case may be) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock (or equivalent security) of the
company resulting from such reorganization, merger, amalgamation or consolidation or the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, and (C) a majority
of the members of the board of directors of the company resulting from such reorganization, merger, amalgamation or consolidation were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of the initial agreement providing for such
reorganization, merger, amalgamation or consolidation; or 
 (iv) consummation of a sale or other disposition of
all or substantially all the assets of the Company, with or without approval by the shareholders of the Company, other than to a corporation, with respect to which following such sale or other disposition, (A) more than 50% of, respectively,
the then outstanding shares of common stock (or equivalent security) of such corporation and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors is then
beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Parent Shares and Outstanding Parent Voting Securities immediately prior to such
sale or other disposition in substantially the same proportion as their ownership, immediately prior to such sale or other disposition, of the Outstanding Parent Shares and Outstanding Parent Voting Securities, as the case may be, (B) no Person
(excluding the Company, any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or such corporation, and any Person beneficially owning, immediately prior to such sale or other disposition, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of the Outstanding
Parent Shares or Outstanding Parent Voting Securities, as the case may be) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock (or equivalent security) of such corporation or the
combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, 

  
 -2-

 
and (C) a majority of the members of the board of directors of such corporation were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of the initial agreement or action of the
Board providing for such sale or other disposition of assets of the Company; or 
 (v) approval by the
shareholders of the Company of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company. 
 Notwithstanding the
foregoing, or anything to the contrary set forth herein, a transaction or series of related transactions will not be considered to be a Change of Control if (i) the Company becomes a direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of a holding
company and (ii) (A) immediately following such transaction(s), the then outstanding shares of common stock (or equivalent security) of such holding company and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such
holding company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors is then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding
Parent Shares and Outstanding Parent Voting Securities immediately prior to such transaction(s) in substantially the same proportion as their ownership immediately prior to such transaction(s) of the Outstanding Parent Shares and Outstanding Parent
Voting Securities, as the case may be, or (B) the shares of Outstanding Parent Voting Securities outstanding immediately prior to such transaction(s) constitute, or are converted into or exchanged for, a majority of the outstanding voting
securities of such holding company immediately after giving effect to such transaction(s).”

 EXECUTION COPY 
 PRIVILEGED AND CONFIDENTIAL 

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT  
 This Employment Agreement (this “Agreement”), effective as of February 3, 2012, by and between XPO Logistics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its successors and assigns,
the “Company”), and John J. Hardig (“Employee”). 
 WHEREAS, the Company desires to employ
Employee and Employee desires to accept such employment with the Company, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein and for other good and valuable consideration, Employee and
the Company agree as follows: 
 1. Term and Duties. (a) Term. The term of Employee’s employment
hereunder (the “Term”) shall begin on February 13, 2012 (the “Start Date”) and shall end on September 2, 2016. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Term may be earlier terminated by either party in
accordance with the terms of Section 4 of this Agreement, and the Term shall automatically expire on the last day of the Term (the “Expiration Date”) without notice required by any party to the other. 

(b) Employment Duties. Employee shall perform such duties as are customarily performed by a chief financial officer of a public
company and as reasonably assigned from time to time by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the “CEO”) or Board of Directors of the Company(the “Board”). 

(c) Title, Full Time Service and Other Activities. During the Term, Employee shall serve as the Chief Financial Officer of the
Company, and, excluding any periods of paid time-off or approved sick leave to which Employee is entitled, Employee shall devote his full working time, energy and attention to the performance of his duties and responsibilities hereunder and shall
faithfully and diligently endeavor to promote the business and best interests of the Company. During the Term, Employee may not, without the prior written consent of the CEO, directly or indirectly, operate, participate in the management, operations
or control of, or act as an employee, officer, consultant, partner, member, agent or representative of, any type of business or service other than as an employee and member of the Company. It shall not, however, be a violation of the foregoing
provisions of this Section 1(c) for Employee to (i) serve as an officer or director or otherwise participate in non-profit, educational, social welfare, religious and civic organizations or (ii) manage his personal, financial and
legal affairs, in each case so long as any such activities do not unreasonably interfere with the performance of his duties and responsibilities to the Company. 
 (d) Location. During the Term, Employee shall be based primarily in Greenwich, Connecticut, with such travel as the performance of his duties to the Company may require. 

2. Compensation. (a) Base Salary. During the Term, the Company shall pay Employee, pursuant to the Company’s
normal and customary payroll procedures but not less frequently than monthly, a base salary at the rate of $395,000 per annum (the “Base Salary”); provided, that the Base Salary shall be $450,000 per annum after such time as
Employee relocates his permanent residence to within 50 miles of Greenwich, Connecticut. The Base Salary is subject to review annually throughout the Term by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) in
its sole discretion. 

 (b) Annual Bonus. As additional compensation, Employee shall have the opportunity to
earn a performance-based bonus (“Annual Bonus”) for each year during the Term of Employee’s employment commencing in the 2012 fiscal year targeted at 100% of the Base Salary based upon Employee’s achievement of performance
goals as determined by the Compensation Committee. The target Annual Bonus for 2012 shall be 100% of the aggregate Base Salary actually paid to Employee during 2012. The performance goals applicable to the Annual Bonus shall be based on one or more
of the performance criteria (the “2011 Plan Performance Criteria”) set forth in Section 6(e)(iv) of the Company’s 2011 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2011 Plan”). Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein and without limiting any other rights and remedies of the Company (including as may be required by law), if Employee has engaged in fraud or other willful misconduct that contributes materially to any significant financial
restatements or material loss to the Company or any of its affiliates, the Company may, at any time up to six months after learning of such conduct, but in no event more than two years after Employee engages in such conduct, require repayment by
Employee of any cash Annual Bonus (net of any taxes paid by Employee on such payment) previously paid to Employee, or cancel any earned but unpaid Annual Bonus or adjust the future compensation of Employee in order to recover the amount by which any
compensation paid to Employee exceeded the lower amount that would have been payable after giving effect to the restated financial results or the material loss. 
 (c) Make-Whole Payment. In order to compensate Employee for all benefits and payments that Employee forfeited when he ceased employment with his former employer, Employee shall receive a cash
payment equal to $225,000 (the “Make-Whole Payment”), which shall be payable no later than March 15, 2012, provided that, except to the extent provided in Section 5(d)(iii) of this Agreement, Employee remains
continuously employed by the Company on the payment date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Make-Whole Payment shall be reduced by an amount equal to any bonus that Employee receives from his former employer with respect to 2011 (the “2011
Bonus”). Within five business days of the earlier of: (x) the date on which Employee is notified by his former employer that he shall be entitled to the 2011 Bonus and (y) the date on which Employee receives the 2011 Bonus,
Employee shall provide written notice to the Company of such notification or payment by his former employer. 
 (d)
Relocation and Housing Assistance. In order to assist Employee in relocating his household to Fairfield County, Connecticut: (i) Employee shall receive a cash payment equal to $20,000, which shall be payable in five equal installments of
$4,000 each on or as promptly as practicable following the Start Date and on each of the first payroll dates during each of the next four months and (ii) the Company will pay or reimburse, upon receipt of reasonable evidence of such expenses
from Employee commuting expenses for travel between the Company’s offices and Employee’s residence in Maryland of up to $2,500 per month following the Start Date, provided that, in the case of each of clause (i) and clause (ii),
Employee remains continuously employed by the Company on the applicable payment date. 

  
 2 

 (e) Benefits. During the Term, Employee shall be eligible to participate in the
benefit plans and programs of the Company that are generally available to other members of the Company’s senior executive team, subject to the terms and conditions of such plans and programs. 

(f) Paid-Time Off. Employee shall be entitled to 13 days paid-time off, and any holidays that are generally afforded to the
Company’s employees, in each case, per calendar year during the Term, prorated for the portion(s) of any partial calendar year during the Term. Employee may take paid-time off only with the consent of the CEO, which consent shall not be
withheld unreasonably. 
 (g) Business Expenses. The Company shall provide Employee a Company-owned wireless smartphone
and Company-owned laptop computer during the Term and shall pay or reimburse Employee for all reasonable and necessary business expenses incurred in the performance of his duties to the Company during the Term upon the presentation of appropriate
statements of such expenses. 
 3. Equity Awards. (a) Grant. On or as promptly as practicable following the
Start Date, subject to approval by the Compensation Committee, Employee shall receive (i) 135,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) of the Company of which (x) 50,000 RSUs (“Time-Based RSUs”) shall be
subject to time-based vesting and (y) 85,000 RSUs (“Performance-Based RSUs”) shall be subject to performance-based vesting, and (ii) options (“Options”) to purchase 50,000 shares of Company common stock
(“Shares”), with an exercise price equal to the closing price per Share as reported by the NYSE Amex LLC on the date of grant, in each case, on the terms set forth below and on such other customary terms and conditions as the Company may
require. 
 (b) Vesting and Cancellation. The RSUs and Options shall initially be unvested and, subject to
Employee’s continued employment hereunder, shall vest as follows: (i) the Time-Based RSUs and Options shall vest, solely based on Employee’s continued employment, in equal annual installments of 20% each beginning on September 2,
2012 and continuing for the next four anniversaries thereof (each such date, a “Vesting Date”), and (ii) the Performance-Based RSUs shall vest in equal annual installments of 20% on each Vesting Date, subject to Employee’s
achievement of performance goals as determined by the Compensation Committee. The performance goals applicable to the Performance-Based RSUs shall be based on one or more of the 2011 Plan Performance Criteria. 

(c) Treatment upon Termination of Employment. All unvested RSUs and Options referenced in this Section 3 shall be
forfeited upon the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason other than (i) a termination by the Company without Cause or a termination by Employee for Good Reason and (ii) a termination due to
Employee’s death or Disability. In the event that Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause or by Employee for Good Reason, subject to the terms and conditions of Section 5(e) of this
Agreement, a portion of any outstanding and unvested RSUs and Options referenced in this Section 3 outstanding as of the Date of Termination shall immediately vest as determined in accordance with the following sentence, and the balance
of such RSUs and Options referenced in this Section 3 shall immediately be forfeited upon the Date of 

  
 3 

 
Termination. For purposes of this Section 3(c), (x) the portion of outstanding Time-Based RSUs and Options that shall vest upon a termination pursuant to
Section 3(c)(i) of this Agreement shall be calculated by multiplying the number of outstanding and unvested Time-Based RSUs and Options that would otherwise have vested on the next Vesting Date by a fraction, (1) the numerator of
which shall be the number of days that have elapsed between the Vesting Date immediately preceding the Date of Termination and the Date of Termination (or, if Employee’s employment is terminated before the first Vesting Date, between
September 2, 2011 and the Date of Termination), and (2) the denominator of which shall be 365, and (y) the portion of outstanding Performance-Based RSUs that shall be eligible to vest upon a termination pursuant to
Section 3(c)(i) of this Agreement shall be determined following the last day of the applicable performance period by multiplying the number of Performance-Based RSUs that would otherwise have vested on the next Vesting Date based on the
Company’s actual performance during such period by the same fraction applicable to the Time-Based RSUs and Options as set forth in Section 3(c)(x). In the event that Employee’s employment hereunder terminates due to his death
or Disability, all outstanding and unvested RSUs and Options referenced in this Section 3 shall automatically vest and be settled, as applicable, within 30 days following the Date of Termination. No amounts shall be payable by the
Company at any time with respect to any unvested RSUs or Options. 
 (d) Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a
Change of Control while Employee is still employed by the Company, all outstanding RSUs and Options shall automatically be 100% vested and, in the case of RSUs, shall be settled within 10 days following the date of such Change of Control. For
purposes of this Agreement, the term “Change of Control” shall have the meaning ascribed to it in the 2011 Plan. If Employee’s employment is terminated without Cause prior to a Change of Control and such termination of employment is
in anticipation of the Change of Control and such Change of Control actually occurs not later than six months following the Date of Termination, then for purposes of this Section 3(d), the date immediately preceding the Date of
Termination shall be treated as the date of the Change of Control, provided that for purposes of determining the timing of payments with respect to the RSUs and the vesting of Options, the date of the actual Change of Control shall be deemed
to be the Date of Termination. 
 4. Termination. Employee’s employment hereunder shall be terminated upon the
earliest to occur of any one of the following events (in which case the Term shall terminate as of the applicable Date of Termination): 
 (a) Expiration of Term. Unless sooner terminated, Employee’s employment hereunder shall terminate automatically in accordance with Section 1(a) of this Agreement on the Expiration
Date, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, in which case employment will continue on an at-will basis or pursuant to the terms of any subsequent agreement between Employee and the Company. 

(b) Death. Employee’s employment hereunder shall terminate upon his death. 

(c) Cause. The Company may terminate Employee’s employment hereunder for Cause by written notice at any time. For purposes of
this Agreement, the term “Cause” shall mean Employee’s (i) willful misconduct or gross negligence in the performance of his duties hereunder 

  
 4 

 
or substantial failure (other than any such failure that is attributable to Disability (as defined in Section 4(g) of this Agreement)) or willful refusal to perform duties reasonably
assigned by the CEO or the Board or to follow any lawful directive of the CEO or the Board; (ii) commission of any fraud, embezzlement, theft or any act of material dishonesty that is injurious to the Company, or any deliberate misappropriation
of money or other assets of the Company; (iii) material breach of any term of this Agreement or any agreement governing any of the equity compensation referred to in Section 3 of this Agreement (the “Equity
Compensation”), or material breach of his fiduciary duties to the Company; (iv) any willful act, or failure to act, in bad faith to the material detriment of the Company; (v) willful failure to cooperate in good faith with a
governmental or internal investigation of the Company or any of its directors, managers, officers or employees, if the Company requests his cooperation; and (vi) conviction of, or plea of nolo contendere to, a felony or any serious crime (other
than vehicular misdemeanors punishable solely by fine); provided that the Company will provide Employee with written notice describing the facts and circumstances that the Company believes constitutes Cause and, in cases where cure is possible,
Employee shall first be provided a 15-day cure period. If, subsequent to Employee’s termination of employment hereunder for any reason other than by the Company for Cause, it is determined in good faith by the Board that, based on facts not
actually known by the Board at the time of Employee’s termination, Employee’s employment could have been terminated by the Company for Cause pursuant to this Section 4(c), Employee’s employment shall, at the election of
the Board at any time up to six months after learning such facts, but in no event more than two years after the occurrence of such facts, be deemed to have been terminated for Cause retroactively to the date the events giving rise to Cause occurred.

 (d) Without Cause. The Company may terminate Employee’s employment hereunder without Cause by written notice at
any time. 
 (e) Good Reason. Employee may terminate his employment hereunder for Good Reason in accordance with the
terms of this Section 4(e). For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean, without first obtaining Employee’s written consent: (i) the Company materially breaches the terms of this Agreement;
(ii) the Company diminishes Employee’s duties or responsibilities in a material and negative manner; (iii) the Company reduces the Base Salary or materially reduces the amount of paid vacation to which Employee is entitled or his
fringe benefits or perquisites; or (iv) the Company requires Employee to be based in a location that is more than 50 miles from Greenwich, Connecticut without Employee’s consent; provided that, the Company shall first be provided a
30-day cure period (the “Cure Period”), following receipt of written notice setting forth in reasonable detail the specific conduct of the Company that constitutes Good Reason, to cease, and to cure, any conduct specified in such
written notice; provided further, that such notice shall be provided to the Company within 60 days of the occurrence of the conduct constituting Good Reason. If, at the end of the Cure Period, the circumstance that constitutes Good
Reason has not been remedied, Employee will be entitled to terminate employment for Good Reason during the 30-day period that follows the end of the Cure Period. If Employee does not terminate employment during such 30-day period, Employee will not
be permitted to terminate employment for Good Reason as a result of such event. If the Company disputes the existence of Good Reason, Employee shall have the burden of proof to establish that Good Reason does exist or that the circumstances that
gave rise to Good Reason have not been cured. 

  
 5 

 (f) Voluntary Resignation. Employee may voluntarily terminate his employment
hereunder at any time upon at least 30 days’ advance written notice to the Company. 
 (g) Disability.
Employee’s employment hereunder shall terminate in the event of Employee’s Disability. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean the inability of Employee, due to illness, accident or any other physical or
mental incapacity, to perform Employee’s duties for the Company for an aggregate of 180 days within any period of 12 consecutive months, which inability is determined to be total and permanent by a board-certified physician mutually agreeable
to the Company and Employee, and the determination of such physician shall be binding upon Employee and the Company. 
 (h) “Date of Termination” shall mean: (i) the scheduled expiration of the Term in the event of termination of Employee’s employment pursuant to Section 4(a) of this
Agreement; (ii) the date of Employee’s death in the event of termination of Employee’s employment pursuant to Section 4(b) of this Agreement; (iii) the date of the Company’s delivery of a notice of termination to
Employee or such later date as specified in such notice in the event of termination by the Company pursuant to Section 4(c) or 4(d) of this Agreement; (iv) the 30th date following delivery of Employee’s notice to the Company of his resignation in accordance with
Section 4(e) or 4(f) of this Agreement (or such earlier date as selected by the Company provided that the Company continues to pay or provide to Employee the compensation and benefits specified under Sections 2 and 3
of this Agreement through such 30th date) and (v) the
date of a determination of Employee’s Disability in the event of a termination of Employee’s employment pursuant to Section 4(g) of this Agreement. 
 5. Termination Payments. (a) General. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 5, following any termination of Employee’s employment hereunder, the obligations of
the Company to pay or provide Employee with compensation and benefits under Section 2 of this Agreement shall cease, and the Company shall have no further obligations to provide compensation or benefits to Employee hereunder except for
payment of (i) any unpaid Base Salary accrued through the Date of Termination; (ii) any unused vacation accrued through the Date of Termination, and (iii) any unpaid or unreimbursed obligations and expenses under
Section 2(g) of this Agreement accrued or incurred through the Date of Termination (collectively items (a)(i) through (a)(iii) above, the “Accrued Benefits”). The payments referred to in Sections
5(a)(i) and (ii) of this Agreement shall be paid within 30 days following the Date of Termination. The payments referred to in Section 5(a)(iii) of this Agreement shall be paid at the times such amounts would otherwise be
paid had Employee’s services hereunder not terminated. Upon termination of Employee’s employment for any reason, all unvested RSUs and Options shall be cancelled without payment therefor except as otherwise specifically provided in
Section 3(c) or 3(d) of this Agreement. The payments and benefits to be provided to Employee under Sections 5(c) and (d) of this Agreement, if any, shall in all events be subject to the satisfaction of the
conditions of Section 5(e) of this Agreement. 
 (b) Automatic Expiration of the Term, Voluntary Resignation, or
Cause. Except as specifically set forth in Sections 7(b) and 7(c) below, if Employee’s employment is terminated pursuant to Section 4(a), 4(c) or 4(f) of this Agreement, the Company shall have no obligation to Employee other
than with respect to the Accrued Benefits. 

  
 6 

 (c) Death, Disability, Without Cause or for Good Reason. In the event of a
termination by reason of Employee’s death or Disability or in the event that, either prior to a Change of Control or more than two years following a Change of Control, the Company terminates Employee’s employment hereunder without Cause or
Employee resigns for Good Reason, Employee (or his estate) shall be entitled to: 
 (i) the Accrued Benefits;

 (ii) a cash payment (the “Severance Payment”) equal to two years’ Base Salary, as in
effect on the Date of Termination (but for purposes of this Section 5(c)(ii), in no event shall the Base Salary be less than $450,000) (payable as set forth in Section 5(e) of this Agreement), plus any Annual Bonus that the
Company has notified Employee in writing that Employee has earned prior to the Date of Termination but is unpaid as of the Date of Termination, and, except in the case of a termination by reason of Employee’s death, medical and dental coverage
for Employee and his covered eligible dependents for a period of 12 months from the Date of Termination; provided that, in the event of a termination without Cause or for Good Reason, (x) any monies Employee earns from any other work, whether
as an employee or as an independent contractor, while Employee is receiving any Severance Payments, shall reduce, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the amount that the Company is obligated to pay Employee under this Section 5(c)(ii) and
(y) if Employee secures other employment, any medical or dental benefits provided under this Section 5(c)(ii) shall cease as of the commencement of such employment; and 

(iii) accelerated vesting of any outstanding RSUs and Options to the extent set forth in Section 3(c) of this
Agreement. 
 (iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, whenever compensation is payable to Employee hereunder as a
result of a termination due to Disability during or with respect to a time that such Disability would entitle Employee to severance, disability income or to salary continuation payments from the Company, as applicable, according to the terms of any
plan now or hereafter provided by the Company or according to any policy of the Company in effect at the time of such Disability, the compensation payable to Employee hereunder shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by any such disability
income or salary continuation and shall not be in addition thereto. If disability income is payable directly to Employee by an insurance company under an insurance policy paid for by the Company, the compensation payable to Employee hereunder shall
by reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amounts paid to Employee by said insurance company and shall not be in addition thereto. 
 (d) Without Cause or for Good Reason Following a Change of Control. In the event that, within two years following a Change of Control, the Company terminates Employee’s employment hereunder
without Cause or Employee resigns for Good Reason, Employee shall be entitled to: 
 (i) the Accrued Benefits;

  
 7 

 (ii) a cash payment (the “CIC Severance Payment”) equal to
three times the sum of (x) the Base Salary, as in effect on the Date of Termination (but for purposes of this Section 5(d)(ii)(x) and (y), in no event shall the Base Salary be less than $450,000) and (y) a target Annual Bonus
of not less than 100% of the Base Salary, in each case, as in effect on the Date of Termination (payable as set forth in Section 5(e) of this Agreement), plus any Annual Bonus that the Company has notified Employee in writing that
Employee has earned prior to the Date of Termination but is unpaid as of the Date of Termination, and continuation of medical and dental coverage for Employee and his eligible dependents for a period of 36 months from the Date of Termination; and

 (iii) solely in the case of a termination of Employee’s employment by the Company without Cause, payment
of the Make-Whole Payment to the extent not previously paid (payable as set forth in Section 5(e) of this Agreement). 
 (e) Conditions Precedent and Subsequent. The payments and benefits provided under Sections 5(c) and 5(d) of this Agreement (other than the Accrued Benefits and other than in the event
of termination by reason of Employee’s death or Disability) are subject to and conditioned upon (i) Employee having provided, within 30 days after the Date of Termination (or such greater period as required by law), a waiver and general
release agreement in a form satisfactory to the Company that has become effective and irrevocable in accordance with its terms and in no event later than the 60th day after the Date of Termination, and (ii) Employee’s compliance with
Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement. Employee shall, upon request by the Company, be required to repay to the Company (net of any taxes paid by Employee on such payments), and the Company shall have no further obligation to pay, the
Severance Payment or CIC Severance Payment, as applicable, in the event Employee receives, within four months after the occurrence of the breach, written notice from the Company that, in the reasonable judgment of the Board, Employee has materially
breached his obligations under Section 6 or 7 of this Agreement; provided, however, that, in cases where cure is possible, Employee shall first be provided a 15-day cure period to cease, and to cure, such conduct. The
Severance Payment, if any, payable hereunder shall be paid in substantially equal installments over the 24-month period, following the Date of Termination, consistent with the Company’s payroll practices, with the first installment to be paid
within 15 days after the condition described in Section 5(e)(i) of this Agreement has been satisfied and with any installments that would otherwise have been paid prior to such date accumulated and paid in a lump sum on the first
date on which payments are made in accordance with the terms of this sentence. The CIC Severance Payment and Make-Whole Payment, if any, payable hereunder shall be paid in one lump sum within 15 days after the condition described in
Section 5(e)(i) has been satisfied; provided, however, that, unless the CIC Severance Payment relates to a transaction that satisfies the requirements of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-3(i)(5), any portion of the CIC Severance
Payment that constitutes deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”), will be paid at the earliest date that is permitted in accordance with the
schedule that is applicable to the Severance Payment. 
 (f) Forfeiture of Equity Awards. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein and without limiting any rights and remedies available to the Company under the terms of this Agreement or otherwise available at, or required by, law or in equity, in the event the Company terminates Employee’s employment for
Cause or if Employee violates the restrictive covenants set forth in Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement (other than the non-disparagement covenant set forth in Section 7(e) of this Agreement) or engages in fraud or willful
misconduct that 

  
 8 

 
contributes materially to any significant financial restatement or material loss to the Company or any of its affiliates, the Company may, (i) in the case of a termination for Cause, at any
time up to six months after such termination, or (ii) in the case of a violation of the restrictive covenants or engaging in fraud or willful misconduct, at any time up to six months after learning of such conduct, but in no event more than two
years after Employee engages in such conduct, (x) terminate or cancel any equity compensation awards granted to Employee by the Company (“Equity Awards”) that are unvested or vested and unexercised, (y) require Employee to
forfeit or remit to the Company any amount payable, or the after-tax net amount paid or received by Employee, in respect of any Equity Awards the vesting of which was accelerated upon termination of Employee’s employment for any reason and
(z) require Employee to forfeit or remit to the Company any Shares (or the equivalent value in cash) required to be held by Employee under the Company’s Stock Ownership Guidelines (subject to a maximum of four times the Base Salary, as in
effect on the Date of Termination) and that were issued to Employee upon vesting, settlement or exercise, as applicable, of any Equity Awards; provided, however, that, in cases where cure is possible, Employee shall first be provided a
15-day cure period to cease, and to cure, such conduct. 
 (g) Section 280G. In the event that any payments,
distributions, benefits or entitlements of any type payable to Employee (“CIC Benefits”) (i) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) but for this paragraph
would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then Employee’s CIC Benefits shall be reduced to such lesser amount (the “Reduced Amount”) that would result in no
portion of such benefits being subject to the Excise Tax; provided that such amounts shall not be so reduced if the Company determines, based on the advice of a nationally recognized accounting firm selected by the Company (the
“Accountants”), that without such reduction Employee would be entitled to receive and retain, on a net after tax basis (including, without limitation, any excise taxes payable under Section 4999 of the Code), an amount that is
greater than the amount, on a net after tax basis, that Employee would be entitled to retain upon receipt of the Reduced Amount. Unless the Company and Employee otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this
Section 5(g) shall be made in writing in good faith by the Accountants. In the event of a reduction of benefits hereunder, benefits shall be reduced by first reducing or eliminating the portion of the CIC Benefits that are payable in
cash and then by reducing or eliminating the non-cash portion of the CIC Benefits, in each case, in reverse order beginning with payments or benefits which are to be paid the furthest in the future; provided, however, that for purposes
of the foregoing sequence, any amounts that are payable with respect to equity-based or equity-related awards (whether payable in cash or in kind) shall be deemed to be a non-cash portion of the CIC Benefits. For purposes of making the calculations
required by this Section 5(g), the Accountants may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of the Code, and other
applicable legal authority. The Company and Employee shall furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably require in order to make a determination under this Section 5(g), and the Company
shall bear the cost of all fees the Accountants charge in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 5(g).

 6. Non-Solicitation. (a) During the Term and during the Restricted Period,
Employee hereby agrees not to, directly or indirectly, solicit or hire or assist any other person or entity in soliciting or hiring any employee of the Company, or any of its affiliates (the “Company Entities”), to perform services
for any entity (other than a Company Entity) or attempt to induce any such employee to leave the service of a Company Entity, or solicit, hire or engage on behalf of himself or any other person, any employee of a Company Entity, or anyone who was
employed by a Company Entity, during the twelve-month period preceding such hiring or engagement. “Restricted Period” means three years following termination of Employee’s employment for any reason. 

(b) During the Term and during the Restricted Period, Employee hereby agrees not to, directly or indirectly, solicit, encourage, advise
or influence any individuals, partnerships, corporations, professional associations or other business organizations that have a business relationship with any Company Entity during the Term or for three years thereafter (the “Company’s
Clients”) or to discontinue or reduce the extent of the relationship between the Company Entities and the Company’s Clients or to obtain or seek products or services the same as or similar to the Company Entities from any other source
not affiliated with the Company Entities. The Company may, in its sole discretion and upon written request from Employee, grant Employee a written release from Employee’s obligations contained in this Section 6(b). 

7. Confidentiality; Non-Compete; Non-Disclosure; Non-Disparagement; Cooperation. (a) Confidentiality.
(i) Employee hereby agrees that, during the Term and thereafter, he will hold in strict confidence (except as required by applicable law after notice to the Company’s General Counsel) any Confidential Information related to any of the
Company Entities. For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” shall mean all confidential or proprietary information of any of the Company Entities (in whatever form), including, without limitation: any information,
observations and data concerning the business or affairs or operation of the Company Entities developed by Employee during the Term or which any Company Entity or any of their respective members, directors, officers, managers, partners, employees,
agents, advisors, attorneys, accountants, consultants, investment bankers, investment advisors or financing sources at any time furnishes or has furnished to Employee in connection with the business of any of the Company Entities; the Company’s
(and any of its respective affiliates’) investment methodologies or models, investment advisory contracts, fees and fee schedules or investment performance (“Track Records”); technical information or reports; brand names,
trademarks, formulas; trade secrets; unwritten knowledge and “know-how”; operating instructions; training manuals; customer lists; customer buying records and habits; product sales records and documents, and product development, marketing
and sales strategies; market surveys; marketing plans; profitability analyses; product cost; long-range plans; information relating to pricing, competitive strategies and new product development; information relating to any forms of compensation or
other personnel-related information; contracts and supplier lists and any information relating to financial data, strategic business plans; information about any other third parties in respect of which any Company Entity has a business relationship
or owes a duty of confidentiality; and all notes, analyses, compilations, forecasts, studies or other documents prepared by Employee that contain or reflect any such information and, in each case, which is not known to the public generally other
than as a result of Employee’s breach of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Track Records shall not be the work of any one individual (including Employee) and are the exclusive property of
the Company and its affiliates, as applicable, and agrees that he shall in no event claim the Track Records as his own following termination of his employment with the Company. 

  
 10 

 (ii) Except as expressly set forth otherwise in this Agreement (including, without
limitation, pursuant to Section 8 of this Agreement), Employee agrees that, prior to the date on which the Company publicly files this Agreement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Employee shall not disclose the terms of this
Agreement except to his immediate family and his financial and legal advisors, or as may be required by law or ordered by a court. Employee further agrees that any disclosure to his financial and legal advisors will only be made after such advisors
acknowledge and agree to maintain the confidentiality of this Agreement and its terms. 
 (iii) Employee further agrees that he
will not improperly use or disclose any confidential information or trade secrets, if any, of any former employers of Employee or any other person to whom Employee has an obligation of confidentiality, and will not bring onto the premises of the
Company or its affiliates any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any such former employer or other person to whom Employee has an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by the former employer or such other
person. 
 (b) Non-Competition. Employee and the Company agree that Employee will occupy a high-level and unique position
of trust and confidence with the Company Entities and will have access to their Confidential Information, and that they would likely suffer significant harm from Employee’s competing with them during the Term and for some period of time
thereafter. Accordingly, Employee agrees that he will not, during the Term and during the Non-Compete Period, directly or indirectly become employed by, engage in business with, serve as an agent or consultant to, become an employee, partner,
member, principal, stockholder or other owner (other than a holder of less than 1% of the outstanding voting shares of any publicly held company) of, any Competitive Business, or otherwise perform services relating to the business of, or otherwise
compete with and within the Restricted Area, any of the Company Entities, or businesses they are actively considering, at the time of termination of Employee’s employment or during the one year prior to the date such employment terminates (the
“Business”) for any Competitive Business (whether or not for compensation). For purposes of this Agreement, “Competitive Business” shall mean any individual, employeeship, corporation, limited liability company,
partnership, unincorporated organization, trust, joint venture or other entity (i) that engages in, or is actively considering engaging in during Employee’s employment with the Company or during the one year following the date such
employment terminates, acquisition related or mergers and acquisition activities related to the transportation or third-party logistics industry, including, without limitation, researching, analyzing and evaluating companies for possible investment
in or acquisition of, for itself or clients or (ii) that engages in, or is actively considering engaging in during Employee’s employment with the Company or during the one year following the date such employment terminates, the Business,
including, without limitation, any providers of third-party logistics services, including, without limitation, freight brokerage, freight forwarding, expediting, internet load boards or intermodal providers, or firms such as CH Robinson, Expeditors
International of Washington, Inc., Echo Global Logistics Inc., Roadrunner Transportation Systems, TransCore, Internet Truckstop LLC and Hub Group Inc.; provided, 

  
 11 

 
however, that clause (i) of this definition shall have no further force and effect as of the date that is one year following a Change of Control. The Company may, in its sole
discretion and upon written request from Employee, grant Employee a written release from Employee’s obligations contained in this Section 7(b). “Non-Compete Period” means (x) one year following termination of
Employee’s employment hereunder by the Company without Cause or by Employee for Good Reason, (y) one year following termination of Employee’s employment for any reason upon or following expiration of the Term (a “Post-Term
Termination”) and (z) three years following termination of Employee’s employment hereunder for any reason not covered by clause (x) or (y) of this definition. Solely in the event of a Post-Term Termination, the Company
agrees to pay Employee subject to Section 5(e) of this Agreement during each month of the Non-Compete Period Employee’s monthly base salary as in effect immediately prior to such termination in the same manner, and subject to the
same reductions, as would apply if the Company elected to extend the Non-Compete Period in accordance with Section 7(c) of this Agreement; provided; however, that the Company shall have the ability to waive the restrictions
of this Section 7(b) in the event of a Post-Term Termination by notifying Employee of such fact not later than 30 days following such termination, in which case, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to make
any payments to Employee during the Non-Compete Period and Employee shall not be bound by the restrictions set forth in this Section 7(b) and Section 7(c) of this Agreement shall be inapplicable. “Restricted
Area” means Canada, Mexico, and any State of the United States, and any other country in which the Company or any Company Entity does business or any other country in which any Company client is located, during the Term or the Non-Compete
Period. 
 (c) Extended Non-Competition. In the event (i) that Employee’s employment with the Company is
terminated hereunder by the Company without Cause or by Employee for Good Reason or (ii) of a Post-Term Termination, the Company shall have the right to extend the Non-Compete Period for up to two additional 12-month periods (each, an
“Extended Non-Compete Period”) beyond the completion of the Non-Compete Period. If the Company elects to extend the Non-Compete Period or the Extended Non-Compete Period, it will notify Employee in writing of such fact not later
than the 90th day prior to the expiration of the Non-Compete Period or the then-current Extended Non-Compete Period, as applicable. By signing this Agreement, Employee agrees to accept and abide by the Company’s election. If the Company elects
to extend the Non-Compete Period, Employee agrees that, during any Extended Non-Compete Period, Employee shall be bound by the restrictions set forth in Section 7(b) in the same manner applicable during the Non-Compete Period, and the
Company agrees to pay Employee subject to Section 5(e) of this Agreement during each month of the Extended Non-Compete Period, an amount equal to his monthly Base Salary as in effect on the Date of Termination, or, in the event of a
Post-Term Termination, the date on which such termination becomes effective (but for purposes of this Section 7(c) in no event shall the monthly Base Salary be less than $37,500). Payment for any partial month will be prorated. Payment
of Employee’s Base Salary during the Extended Non-Compete Period will be made pursuant to the Company’s normal and customary payroll procedures. If the Company elects to extend the Non-Compete Period or the Extended Non-Compete Period, any
monies Employee earns from any other work during such periods, whether as an employee or as an independent contractor, will reduce, dollar for dollar, the amount that the Company is obligated to pay Employee under this Section 7(c).
Payments made by the Company under this Section 7(c) are made solely for the extension of the non-compete covenant and do not render Employee either an employee of, or a consultant to, the Company. 

  
 12 

 (d) Competitive Opportunity. If, at any time during the Term, Employee
(i) acquires knowledge of a potential investment, investment opportunity or business venture which may be an appropriate investment by the Company, or in which the Company could otherwise have an interest or expectancy (a “Competitive
Opportunity”), or (ii) otherwise is then exploiting any Competitive Opportunity, Employee shall promptly bring such Competitive Opportunity to the Company. In such event, Employee shall not have the right to hold any such Competitive
Opportunity for his (and his agents’, employees’ or affiliates’) own account and benefit or to recommend, assign or otherwise transfer or deal in such Competitive Opportunity with persons other than the Company. 

(e) Return of Company Property. All documents, data, recordings, or other property, including, without limitation, smartphones,
computers and other business equipment, whether tangible or intangible, including all information stored in electronic form, obtained or prepared by or for Employee and utilized by Employee in the course of his employment with the Company shall
remain the exclusive property of the Company and Employee shall return all copies of such property upon any termination of his employment and as otherwise requested by the Company during the Term. 

(f) Non-Disparagement. Employee hereby agrees not to defame or disparage any of the Company Entities or any of its officers,
directors, members, partners or employees (collectively, the “Company Parties”), and, during the Term and for a period of three years following termination of Employee’s employment for any reason, to cooperate with the Company
upon reasonable request, in refuting any defamatory or disparaging remarks by any third party made in respect of any of the Company Parties. Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, make (or cause to be made) any comment or statement, oral or
written, including, without limitation, in the media or to the press or to any individual or entity, that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the reputation of any of the Company Parties or the conduct of its, his or their business. The
Company shall require its directors and executive officers not to defame or disparage Employee. 
 (g) Cooperation.
During the Term and thereafter (including, without limitation, following the Date of Termination), Employee shall, upon reasonable notice and without the necessity of any Company Entity obtaining a subpoena or court order, provide Employee’s
reasonable cooperation in connection with any suit, action or proceeding (or any appeal from any suit, action or proceeding), and any investigation and/or defense of any claims asserted against any Company Entity that relates to events occurring
during Employee’s employment with any Company Entity as to which Employee may have relevant information (including furnishing relevant information and materials to the relevant Company Entity or its designee and/or providing testimony at
depositions and at trial), provided that the Company shall reimburse Employee for expenses reasonably incurred in connection with any such cooperation occurring after the termination of Employee’s employment and provided that any such
cooperation occurring after the Date of Termination shall be scheduled to the extent reasonably practicable so as not to unreasonably interfere with Employee’s business or personal affairs. 

  
 13 

 8. Notification of Subsequent Employer. Employee hereby agrees that, prior to
accepting employment with any other person during any period during which Employee remains subject to any of the covenants set forth in Section 6, 7(b) or 7(c) of this Agreement, Employee shall provide such prospective employer with
written notice of such provisions of this Agreement, with a copy of such notice delivered simultaneously to the Company. 
 9.
Injunctive Relief. Employee acknowledges that it is impossible to measure in money the damages that will accrue to the Company Parties in the event that Employee breaches any of the restrictive covenants provided in Sections 6 and
7 of this Agreement. In the event that Employee breaches any such restrictive covenant, the Company Parties shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Employee from violating such restrictive covenant (without posting any bond). If any of
the Company Parties shall institute any action or proceeding to enforce any such restrictive covenant, Employee hereby waives the claim or defense that such Company Party has an adequate remedy at law and agrees not to assert in any such action or
proceeding the claim or defense that there is an adequate remedy at law. The foregoing shall not prejudice the Company’s right to require Employee to account for and pay over to the Company, and Employee hereby agrees to account for and pay
over, the compensation, profits, monies, accruals or other benefits derived or received by Employee as a result of any transaction constituting a breach of any of the restrictive covenants provided in Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement or to seek
any other relief to which it may be entitled. 
 10. Miscellaneous. (a) Notices. Any notice or other
communication required or permitted under this Agreement shall be effective only if it is in writing and shall be deemed to be given when delivered personally, or four days after it is mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return
receipt requested or one day after it is sent by overnight courier service via UPS or FedEx and, in each case, addressed as follows (or if it is sent through any other method agreed upon by the parties):

 14 

 (b) Entire Agreement. This Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement and
understanding among the parties hereto with respect to Employee’s employment hereunder and supersedes and is in full substitution for any and all prior understandings or agreements (whether written or oral) with respect to Employee’s
employment. The Company does not make and has not made, and Employee does not rely and has not relied on any statement, omission, representation or warranty, written or oral, of any kind or nature whatsoever, regarding the Company or the Equity
Compensation, including, without limitation, its or their present, future, prospective or potential value, worth, prospects, performance, soundness, profit or loss potential, or any other matter or thing whatsoever relating to whether Employee
should purchase or accept any Equity Compensation and/or the consideration therefor. 
 (c) Amendment; No Waiver. Except
as expressly set forth otherwise in this Agreement (including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections 10(l)(iv) and 10(m) of this Agreement), this Agreement may be amended only by an instrument in writing signed by the parties, and the
application of any provision hereof may be waived only by an instrument in writing that specifically identifies the provision whose application is being waived and that is signed by the party against whom or which enforcement of such waiver is
sought. The failure of any party at any time to insist upon strict adherence to any provision hereof shall in no way affect the full right to insist upon strict adherence at any time thereafter, nor shall the waiver by any party of a breach of any
provision hereof be taken or held to be a waiver of any succeeding breach of such provision or a waiver of the provision itself or a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement. No failure or delay by either party in exercising any right or
power hereunder will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment of any steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right or power. Termination of this Agreement shall not relieve any party of liability for any breach of this Agreement occurring prior to such termination. 
 (d) No Construction Against Drafter. The parties acknowledge and agree that each party has reviewed and negotiated the terms and provisions of this Agreement and has had the opportunity to
contribute to its revision. Accordingly, any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement. 

(e) Clawbacks. Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary,
Employee will be subject to any legally mandatory policy relating to the recovery of compensation, solely to the extent that the Company is required to implement such policy pursuant to applicable law, whether pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of
2002, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 or otherwise. 

  
 15 

 (f) Employee Representations and Acknowledgements. Employee represents, warrants and
covenants that as of the date hereof: (i) he has the full right, authority and capacity to enter into this Agreement, (ii) he is ready, willing and able to perform his obligations hereunder and, to his knowledge, no reason exists that
would prevent him from performing his obligations hereunder, (iii) he is not bound by any agreement that conflicts with or prevents or restricts the full performance of his duties and obligations to the Company hereunder during or after the
Term and (iv) the execution and delivery of this Agreement shall not result in any breach or violation of, or a default under, any existing obligation, commitment or agreement to which Employee is subject. Employee acknowledges and agrees that
nothing in this Agreement shall (x) entitle Employee to any compensation or other interest in respect of any activity of Jacobs Private Equity, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“JPE”) or Bradley S. Jacobs other than
with respect to the Company; (y) restrict or prohibit the Company, Bradley S. Jacobs or any of his affiliates from having business interests and engaging in business activities in addition to those relating to the Company; or (z) restrict
the investments which the Company, Bradley S. Jacobs or JPE or any of his or its affiliates may make, regardless of whether such investment opportunity or investment may be deemed to be a Competitive Opportunity. Employee acknowledges that he has
carefully read this Agreement and has given careful consideration to the restraints imposed upon Employee by this Agreement, and is in full accord as to the necessity of such restraints for the reasonable and proper protection of the Confidential
Information, business strategies, employee and customer relationships and goodwill of the Company Entities now existing or to be developed in the future. Employee expressly acknowledges and agrees that each and every restraint imposed by this
Agreement is reasonable with respect to subject matter, industry scope, time period and geographic area. Employee agrees to comply with each of the covenants contained in Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement in accordance with their terms, and
Employee shall not, and hereby agrees to waive and release any right or claim to, challenge the reasonableness, validity or enforceability of any of the covenants contained in Section 6 or 7 of this Agreement. Employee further
acknowledges that although Employee’s compliance with the covenants contained in Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement may prevent Employee from earning a livelihood in a business similar to the business of the Company Entities,
Employee’s experience and capabilities are such that Employee has other opportunities to earn a livelihood and adequate means of support for Employee and Employee’s dependents. Employee acknowledges that the Company has advised him that it
is in his best interest to consult with an attorney prior to executing this Agreement. 
 (g) Survival. Employee’s
obligations under Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect for the entire period provided therein notwithstanding any termination of employment or other expiration of the Term or termination of this Agreement.
The terms and conditions of Sections 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 of this Agreement shall survive the Term and termination of Employee’s employment. 
 (h) Assignment. This Agreement is binding on and is for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators and other legal representatives.
This Agreement is personal to Employee; and neither this Agreement nor any right or obligation hereunder may be assigned by Employee without the prior written consent of the Company (or except by will or the laws of descent and distribution), and
any purported assignment in violation of this Section 10(h) shall be void. 

  
 16 

 (i) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof is
held invalid, the invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications of this Agreement which can be given effect without the invalid provisions or applications and to this end the provisions of this Agreement are declared to be severable.
If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any applicable law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect so long as
the economic and legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse; provided, however, that in the event of a final, non-reviewable, non-appealable determination that
any provision of Section 6 or 7 of this Agreement (whether in whole or in part) is void or constitutes an unreasonable restriction against Employee, such provision shall not be rendered void but shall be deemed to be modified to the
minimum extent necessary to make such provision enforceable for the longest duration and the greatest scope as may constitute a reasonable restriction under the circumstances. Subject to the foregoing, upon such determination that any term or other
provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that
the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible. 
 (j) Tax
Withholding. The Company may withhold from any amounts payable to Employee hereunder all federal, state, city, foreign or other taxes that the Company may reasonably determine are required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or
regulation (it being understood that Employee shall be responsible for payment of all taxes in respect of the payments and benefits provided herein). 
 (k) Cooperation Regarding Equity Compensation. Employee expressly agrees that he shall execute such other documents as reasonably requested by the Company to effect the terms of this Agreement and
the issuance of the Equity Compensation as contemplated hereunder in compliance with applicable law. 
 (l) Governing Law;
Arbitration; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. (i) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with its express terms, and otherwise in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without reference to
its principles of conflicts of law. 
 (ii) Any claim initiated by Employee arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the
breach thereof, or Employee’s employment, or the termination thereof, shall be resolved by binding arbitration before a single arbitrator in the City, County and State of New York administered by the American Arbitration Association in
accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. 
 (iii) Any claim initiated by the Company arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach thereof, or Employee’s employment, or the termination thereof, shall, at the election of the
Company be resolved in accordance with Section 10(l)(ii) or (iv) of this Agreement. 

  
 17 

 (iv) Employee hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court
located in the City, County and State of New York; provided, however, that nothing herein shall preclude the Company from bringing any suit, action or proceeding in any other court for the purposes of enforcing the provisions of this
Section 10(l) or enforcing any judgment or award obtained by the Company. Employee waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which he now or hereafter has to personal jurisdiction or to the laying of venue
of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in an applicable court described in this Section 10(l)(iv), and agrees that he shall not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any
court. Employee agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, a final and non-appealable judgment in any suit, action or proceeding brought in any applicable court described in this Section 10(l)(iv) shall be
conclusive and binding upon Employee and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction. EMPLOYEE EXPRESSLY AND KNOWINGLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL IN THE EVENT THAT ANY ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE BREACH THEROF, OR
EMPLOYEE’S EMPLOYMENT, OR THE TERMINATION THEREOF, IS LITIGATED OR HEARD IN ANY COURT. 
 (v) The prevailing party shall be
entitled to recover all legal fees and costs (including reasonable attorney’s fees and the fees of experts) from the losing party in connection with any claim arising under this Agreement or Employee’s employment hereunder. 

(m) Section 409A. (i) It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement comply with Section 409A, and all
provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Section 409A. 
 (ii) Neither Employee nor any of his creditors or beneficiaries shall have the right to subject any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable under this Agreement or under
any other plan, policy, arrangement or agreement of or with the Company or any of its affiliates (this Agreement and such other plans, policies, arrangements and agreements, the “Company Plans”) to any anticipation, alienation,
sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment or garnishment. Except as permitted under Section 409A, any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable to Employee or for Employee’s benefit under any
Company Plan may not be reduced by, or offset against, any amount owing by Employee to the Company or any of its affiliates. 

(iii) If, at the time of Employee’s separation from service (within the meaning of Section 409A), (i) Employee shall be a
specified employee (within the meaning of Section 409A and using the identification methodology selected by the Company from time to time) and (ii) the Company shall make a good faith determination that an amount payable under a Company
Plan constitutes deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) the payment of which is required to be delayed pursuant to the six-month delay rule set forth in Section 409A in order to avoid taxes or penalties under
Section 409A, then the Company (or its affiliate, as applicable) shall not pay such amount on the otherwise scheduled payment date but shall instead accumulate such amount and pay it on the first business day after such six-month period.

 (iv) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any Company Plan to the contrary, in
light of the uncertainty with respect to the proper application of Section 409A, the Company reserves the right to make amendments to any Company Plan as the Company deems necessary or desirable to avoid the imposition of taxes or penalties
under Section 409A. In any case, Employee is solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on Employee or for Employee’s account in connection with any Company Plan (including any taxes
and penalties under Section 409A), and neither the Company nor any affiliate shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold Employee harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties. 

(v) For purposes of Section 409A, each payment hereunder will be deemed to be a separate payment as permitted under Treasury
Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii). 
 (vi) Except as specifically permitted by Section 409A, any benefits and
reimbursements provided to Employee under this Agreement during any calendar year shall not affect any benefits and reimbursements to be provided to Employee under this Agreement in any other calendar year, and the right to such benefits and
reimbursements cannot be liquidated or exchanged for any other benefit. Furthermore, reimbursement payments shall be made to Employee as soon as practicable following the date that the applicable expense is incurred, but in no event later than the
last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the underlying expense is incurred. 
 (n)
Section 105(h). Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent necessary to satisfy Section 105(h) of the Code, the Company will be permitted to alter the manner in which medical benefits are provided
to Employee following termination of Employee’s employment, provided that the after-tax cost to Employee of such benefits shall not be greater than the cost applicable to similarly situated executives of the Company who have not terminated
employment. 
 (o) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an
original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. Signatures delivered by facsimile or electronic means (including by “pdf”) shall be deemed effective for all purposes. 

(p) Headings. The headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be a part of or control
or affect the meaning of any provision hereof.
