	2.	 Indenture and Subordination. 

This Global Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Notes”) issued under the
Indenture, dated as of March 9, 2015 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture No. 1, dated as of June 2, 2020 (the “Supplemental Indenture” and the Base Indenture, as supplemented by
the Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee. Capitalized terms used herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise indicated. The terms of
the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a
statement of all such terms. To the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Note and the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the Indenture will control. 

The Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes is, to the extent and in the manner set forth in the Indenture subordinate and subject in right of
payment to the prior payment in full of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on all Senior Indebtedness of the Company and each Holder of a Note, by accepting the same, agrees to and shall be bound by the provisions of the Indenture
with respect thereto. 
 The Notes are general unsecured, subordinated obligations of the Company. The Notes will initially be limited to an
original aggregate principal amount of $172,500,000, but additional Notes may be issued pursuant to the Indenture, and the originally issued Notes and any such additional Notes shall constitute a single series of Securities under the Indenture and
the originally issued Notes and any such additional Notes shall vote together for all purposes as a single class. 

	3.	 Redemption; Discharge Prior to Redemption or Maturity. 

On June 15, 2025 or on any Interest Payment Date thereafter, this Note will be redeemable, at the Company’s option, in whole or in
part, at any time and from time to time.

Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 Any redemption will be at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of this Note plus
accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the payment of such accrued and unpaid interest paid as a part of the Redemption Price shall satisfy in full the obligation of the
Company to pay accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes redeemed from and including the most recent Interest Payment Date on which all accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes was paid or provided for through, but excluding, the Redemption Date. No
redemption of the Notes by the Company prior to the Stated Maturity shall be made without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve if such prior approval is or will be required at the scheduled Redemption Date in order for the Notes to qualify as
Tier 2 Capital of the Company under the rules and guidelines of the Federal Reserve, as determined in good faith by the Company. 
 Notice
of any redemption will be mailed or transmitted at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed at its registered address. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption
Price on the Notes, on and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions called for redemption. 
 The
Company has no obligation to redeem or purchase any Notes pursuant to any sinking fund or at the option of the Holders. 
 The Notes may be
defeased by the Company, pursuant to Section 13.02 of the Indenture, provided the Company irrevocably deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Securities sufficient to pay the then Outstanding principal of and accrued interest on the
Notes to redemption or maturity and the Company may in certain circumstances be discharged from the Indenture and the Notes. 
  

	4.	 Registered Form; Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. 

The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $25 principal amount and any multiple of $25 in excess thereof. A Holder
may register the transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Company or Security Registrar may require a Holder to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or
permitted by the Indenture. Pursuant to the Indenture, there are certain periods during which the Company will not be required to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Note or certain portions of a Note. 

	5.	 Defaults and Remedies. 

In case an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal hereof may be declared, and upon
such declaration shall become, due and payable immediately, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture. 

The Indenture provides that in the event of a Default in the payment of interest or principal or the performance of any covenant or agreement
in the Notes or the Indenture (each of which is defined in the Indenture to be a “Default”), the Trustee may, subject to certain limitations and conditions, seek to enforce payment of such interest or principal or the performance of such
covenant agreement. There will be no right of acceleration in the case of a Default. 
  

	6.	 Amendment and Waiver. 

Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture and the Notes may be amended, or default may be waived, with the consent of the Holders of a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes. Without notice to or the consent of any Holder, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, or to correct or
supplement any provision therein which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision therein.

day of                 , 2020, by and between Hanesbrands Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), and
                 (“Executive”). 

WHEREAS, Executive is an employee of Company, Company desires to foster the continuous employment of Executive and
has determined that appropriate steps should be taken to reinforce and encourage the continued attention and dedication of Executive to his duties free from distractions which could arise in anticipation of an involuntary termination of
employment or a Change in Control of Company; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein set
forth, Company and Executive agree as follows: 
 1. Term and Nature of Agreement. This Agreement shall commence
on the date it is fully executed (“Execution Date”) by all parties and shall continue in effect unless the Company gives at least eighteen (18) months prior written notice that this Agreement will not be renewed.
In the event of such notice, this Agreement will expire on the next anniversary of the Execution Date that is at least eighteen (18) months after the date of such notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change in
Control occurs during any term of this Agreement, the term of this Agreement shall be extended automatically for a period of twenty-four (24) months after the end of the month in which the Change in Control occurs.
Except to the extent otherwise provided, the parties intend for this Agreement to be construed and enforced as an unfunded welfare benefit plan under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”),
including without limitation the jurisdictional provisions of ERISA. 
 2. Involuntary Termination Benefits. Executive shall
be eligible for severance benefits upon an involuntary termination of employment under the terms and conditions specified in this section 2. 
  

	 	(a)	 Eligibility for Severance. 

 

	 	(i)	 Eligible Terminations. Subject to subparagraph (a)(ii) below, Executive shall be eligible for
severance payments and benefits under this section 2 if his employment terminates under one of the following circumstances: 

  

	 	(A)	 Executive’s employment is terminated involuntarily without Cause (defined in subparagraph
2(a)(ii)(A)); or 

  

	 	(B)	 Executive terminates his or her employment at the request of Company. 

 

	 	(ii)	 Ineligible Terminations. Notwithstanding subparagraph (a)(i) next above, Executive shall not be
eligible for any severance payments or benefits under this section 2 if his employment terminates under any of the following circumstances: 

  

	 	(A)	 A termination for Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” means
Executive has been convicted of (or pled guilty or no contest to) a felony or any crime involving fraud, embezzlement, theft, misrepresentation of financial impropriety; has willfully engaged in misconduct resulting in material harm to
Company; has willfully failed to substantially perform duties after written notice; or is in willful violation of Company policies resulting in material harm to Company; 

 

	 	(B)	 A termination as the result of Disability. For purposes of this Agreement “Disability”

	 	(C)	 A termination due to death; 

 

	 	(D)	 A termination due to Voluntary Retirement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Voluntary

	 	(G)	 The transfer of Executive’s employment to a subsidiary or affiliate of Company with his
consent; 

  

	 	(H)	 A termination of employment that qualifies Executive to receive severance payments or benefits under
section 3 below following a Change in Control; or 

  

	 	(I)	 Any other termination of employment under circumstances not described in subparagraph 2(a)(i).

  

	 	(iii)	 Characterization of Termination. The characterization of Executive’s termination shall be
made by the Committee (as defined in section 5 below) which determination shall be final and binding. 

  

	 	(iv)	 Termination Date. For purposes of this section 2, Executive’s “Termination
Date” shall mean the date on which Executive terminates employment with Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates, as specified in the separation and release agreement described under section 2(e) below.

  

	 	(b)	 Severance Benefits Payable. If Executive is terminated under circumstances described in
subparagraph 2(a)(i), and not described in subparagraph 2(a)(ii), then in lieu of any benefits payable under any other severance plan of the Company of any type and in consideration of the separation and release agreement and the covenants
contained herein, the following shall apply: 

  

	 	(i)	 Executive shall be entitled to receive his Base Salary (the “Salary Portion of
Severance”) during the “Severance Period, “payable as provided in section 2(c). The “Severance Period” shall mean the number of months determined by multiplying the number of Executive’s full
years of employment with Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of Company by two; provided, however, that in no event shall the Severance Period be less than twelve months or more than twenty-four months. “Base
Salary” shall mean the annual salary in effect for Executive immediately prior to his Termination Date. At the discretion of the Committee, Executive may receive an additional salary portion in an amount equal to
as much as 100% of Executive’s target bonus under the Annual Incentive Plan. 

  

	 	(ii)	 Executive shall receive a pro-rata amount (determined based upon
the number of days from the first day of the Company’s current fiscal year to Executive’s Termination Date divided by the total number of days in the applicable performance period and based on actual performance and
achievement of any performance goals) of: 

  

	 	(A)	 The annual incentive, if any, payable under the Annual Incentive Plan in effect with respect to the
fiscal year in which the Termination Date occurs based on actual fiscal year performance (the “Annual Incentive Portion of Severance”). “Annual Incentive Plan” means the Hanesbrands Inc. annual incentive plan
in which Executive participates as of the Termination Date; and 

  

	 	(B)	 The long-term incentive, if any, payable under the Omnibus Plan in effect on Executive’s
Termination Date for any performance period or cycle that is at least fifty (50) percent completed prior to Executive’s Termination Date and which relates to the period of his service prior to his Termination Date. The
“Omnibus Plan” means the Hanesbrands Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time, and any successor plan or plans. The long-term incentive described in this section (“Long-Term Cash Incentive
Plan”) includes cash long-term incentives, but does not include stock options, RSUs, or other equity awards. 

Such amounts shall be payable as provided in section 2(c). Treatment of stock options, RSUs, or other equity awards shall be determined
pursuant to Executive’s award agreement(s). Executive shall not be eligible for any new Annual Incentive Plan grants, Long-Term Cash Incentive Plan grants, or any other grants of stock options, RSUs, or other equity
awards under the Omnibus Plan during the Severance Period. 
  

	 	(iii)	 Beginning on his Termination Date, Executive shall be eligible to elect continued coverage under
the group medical and dental plan available to similarly situated senior executives. If Executive elects continuation coverage for medical coverage, dental coverage or both, he shall pay the entire COBRA premium charged for such continuation
coverage during the Severance Period; provided, however, that during the Severance Period Company shall reimburse Executive, on a taxable basis if so elected by Company, for that portion of the COBRA premium paid that
exceeds the amount payable by an active executive of Company for similar coverage, as adjusted from time to time. Such reimbursement shall be made to Executive on the 20th day of
each calendar month during the Severance Period, or within ten (10) business days thereafter. The amount eligible for reimbursement under this subparagraph in any calendar year shall not affect any amounts eligible for reimbursement to
be provided in any other calendar year. In addition, Executive’s 

  
 2 

	 	
right to reimbursement hereunder shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit. Executive’s right to COBRA continuation coverage under any such group health
plan shall be reduced by the number of months of medical and dental coverage otherwise provided pursuant to this subparagraph. The premium charged for any continuation coverage after the end of the Severance Period shall be entirely at
Executive’s expense and shall be the actuarially determined cost of the continuation coverage as determined by an actuary selected by the Company (in accordance with the requirements under COBRA, to the extent applicable). Executive
shall not be entitled to reimbursement of any portion of the premium charged for such coverage after the end of the Severance Period. Executive’s COBRA continuation coverage shall terminate in accordance with the COBRA continuation of
coverage provisions under Company’s group medical and dental plans. If Executive has attained age fifty (50) and completed five (5) years of service with Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates (or would
attain age fifty (50) and complete five (5) years of service if the Severance Period is considered as employment), then, after exhausting any COBRA continuation coverage under the group medical plan, Executive may elect to
participate in the Hanesbrands Inc. Choice Fund Open Access Plus HRA – Extended Medical Plan (or its successor) in accordance with the terms and conditions of such plan in effect on and after Executive’s Termination Date; provided,
that such retiree medical coverage shall not be available to Executive unless he elects such coverage within thirty (30) days following his Termination Date. The premium charged for such retiree medical coverage may be different
(greater) than the premium charged an active employee for similar coverage. 

  

	 	(iv)	 Except as otherwise provided herein or in the applicable plan, participation in all other Company
plans available to similarly situated senior executives including but not limited to, qualified pension plans, stock purchase plans, matching grant programs, 401(k) plans and ESOPs, personal accident insurance, travel accident insurance, short and
long term disability insurance, and accidental death and dismemberment insurance, shall cease on Executive’s Termination Date. During the Severance Period, Company shall continue to maintain life insurance covering
Executive under Company’s Executive Life Insurance Plan in accordance with its terms. If Executive has attained age fifty-five (55) and completed ten (10) years of service with Company and its subsidiaries and
affiliates, or would have if the Severance Period is considered as employment, then Company will continue to pay the premiums (or prepay the entire premium) so that Executive has a paid-up
life insurance benefit equal to his annual salary on his Termination Date.  

  

	 	(c)	 Payment of Severance. 

 

	 	(i)	 Salary Portion. The Salary Portion of Severance shall be paid as follows: 

 

	 	(A)	 That portion of the Salary Portion of Severance that exceeds the “Separation Pay Limit,”
if any, shall be paid to Executive in a lump sum payment as soon as practicable following the Termination Date, but in no event later than the fifteenth day of the third month after the Termination Date. The
“Separation Pay Limit” shall mean two (2) times the lesser of (1) the sum of Executive’s annualized compensation based upon the annual rate of pay for services provided to Company for the calendar year
immediately preceding the calendar year in which the Termination Date occurs (adjusted for any increase during that calendar year that was expected to continue indefinitely if Executive had not terminated employment); and (2) the
maximum dollar amount of compensation that may be taken into account under a tax-qualified retirement plan under Code section 401(a)(17) for the year in which the Termination Date occurs.
The payment to be made to Executive pursuant to this subparagraph (A) is intended to be exempt from Section 409A (as defined in section 15) under the exemption found in Regulation section 1.409A-(b)(4) for
short-term deferrals. 

  

	 	(B)	 The remaining portion of the Salary Portion of Severance shall be paid during the Severance
Period in accordance with Company’s payroll schedule, with the first installment payable in the first payroll falling on or after the sixtieth (60th) day following the
Termination Date, with such first installment to include any amount that would have been paid in the period between the Termination Date and the date of such payroll. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall such remaining
portion of the Salary Portion of Severance be paid to Executive later than December 31 of the second calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive’s Termination Date occurs. The payment(s) to be made
to Executive pursuant to this subparagraph (B) are intended to be exempt from Code section 409A (as defined in section 15) under the exemption found in Regulation section 1.409A-(b)(9)(iii) for
separation pay plans (i.e., the so-called “two times” pay exemption). Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted under Section 409A, the Committee may
elect to pay such remaining Salary Portion of Severance in a lump sum payment or a combination of regular payments and a lump sum payment. Any such lump sum payment shall be paid to Executive as soon as practicable following the
Termination Date, but in no event later than the fifteenth day of the third month after the Termination Date. 

  
 3 

	 	(ii)	 Incentive Portion. The Annual Incentive Portion of Severance, if any, shall be paid in cash on
the same date the active participants under the Annual Incentive Plan are paid. The Long-Term Cash Incentive Plan payout, if any, shall be paid in the same form and on the same date the active participants under the Omnibus Plan
are paid. 

  

	 	(iii)	 Withholding. All payments hereunder shall be reduced by such amount as Company (or any subsidiary
or affiliate of Company) may be required under all applicable federal, state, local or other laws or regulations to withhold or pay over with respect to such payment. 

 

	 	(d)	 Termination of Benefits. Notwithstanding any provisions in this Agreement to the contrary, all
rights to receive or continue to receive severance payments and benefits under this section 2 shall cease on the earliest of: (i) the date Executive breaches any of the covenants in the separation and release agreement described in
section 2(e); or (ii) the date Executive becomes reemployed by Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. 

  

	 	(e)	 Separation and Release Agreement. No benefits under this section 2 shall be payable to Executive
unless Executive and Company have executed and Executive has delivered to Company a separation and release agreement (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A) within forty-five (45) days following
the Termination Date and the release therein shall have become effective in accordance with its terms, and the payment of severance benefits under this section 2 shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the separation and release
agreement. 

  

	 	(f)	 Death of Executive. In the event that Executive shall die prior to the payment in full of
any benefits described above as payable to Executive for involuntary termination, payments of such benefits shall cease on the date of Executive’s death. 

3. Change in Control Benefits. 
  

	 	(a)	 Eligibility for Change in Control Benefits. 

 

	 	(i)	 Terminations. If (A) within three (3) months preceding a Change in Control,
Executive’s employment is terminated by Company at the request of a third party in contemplation of a Change in Control, (B) within twenty-four (24) months following a Change in Control, Executive’s
employment is terminated by Company other than on account of Executive’s death, Disability or Voluntary Retirement and other than for Cause, or (C) within twenty-four (24) months following a
Change in Control Executive voluntarily terminates his employment for Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled to the Change in Control benefits as described in section 3(b) below. 

 

	 	(ii)	 Good Reason. For purposes of this section 3, “Good Reason” means the occurrence of any
one or more of the following (without Executive’s written consent after a Change in Control): 

  

	 	(A)	 A material adverse change in Executive’s duties or responsibilities; 

 

	 	(B)	 A reduction in Executive’s annual base salary except any reduction of not more than ten
(10) percent; 

  

	 	(C)	 A material reduction in Executive’s level of participation in Company’s short- and/or
long-term incentive compensation plans, or employee benefit or retirement plans, policies, practices or arrangements in which Executive participates, except for any reduction applicable to all senior executives; 

 

	 	(D)	 The failure of any successor to Company to assume and agree to perform this Agreement; or

  

	 	(E)	 Company’s requiring Executive to be based at an office location which is at least fifty
(50) miles from his or her office location at the time of the Change in Control. 

 The existence of Good
Reason shall not be affected by Executive’s temporary incapacity due to physical or mental illness not constituting a Disability. Executive’s Voluntary Retirement shall constitute a waiver of his or her
rights with respect to any circumstance that would otherwise constitute Good Reason. Executive’s continued employment shall not constitute a waiver of his or her rights with respect to any circumstances which may constitute
Good Reason; provided, however, that Executive may not rely on any particular action or event described in clause (A) through (E) above as a basis for terminating his employment for Good Reason unless he delivers a
Notice of Termination based on that action or event within ninety (90) days after its occurrence and Company has failed to correct the circumstances cited by Executive as constituting Good Reason within thirty
(30) days of receiving the Notice of Termination. 

  
 4 

	 	(iii)	 Change in Control. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in Control” will
occur: 

  

	 	(A)	 Upon the acquisition by any individual, entity or group, including any Person (as defined in the United
States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), of beneficial ownership (as defined in Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of
twenty (20) percent or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding capital stock of Company that by its terms may be voted on all matters submitted to stockholders of Company generally (“Voting
Stock”); provided, however, that the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change in Control: 

  

	 	1)	 Any acquisition directly from Company (excluding any acquisition resulting from the exercise of a
conversion or exchange privilege in respect of outstanding convertible or exchangeable securities unless such outstanding convertible or exchangeable securities were acquired directly from Company); 

 

	 	2)	 Any acquisition by Company; 

 

	 	3)	 Any acquisition by an employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by Company or any
corporation controlled by Company; or 

  

	 	4)	 Any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a reorganization, merger or consolidation involving
Company, if, immediately after such reorganization, merger or consolidation, each of the conditions described in clauses (1), (2) and (3) of subparagraph 3(a)(iii)(B) below shall be satisfied; and provided further that, for purposes of
clause (2) immediately above, if (i) any Person (other than Company or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by Company or any corporation controlled by Company) shall become the
beneficial owner of twenty (20) percent or more of the Voting Stock by reason of an acquisition of Voting Stock by Company, and (ii) such Person shall, after such acquisition by Company, become the
beneficial owner of any additional shares of the Voting Stock and such beneficial ownership is publicly announced, then such additional beneficial ownership shall constitute a Change in Control; or 

 

	 	(B)	 Upon the consummation of a reorganization, merger or consolidation of Company, or a sale, lease,
exchange or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of Company; excluding, however, any such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale, lease, exchange or other transfer with respect to which, immediately after consummation
of such transaction: 

  

	 	1)	 All or substantially all of the beneficial owners of the Voting Stock of Company outstanding
immediately prior to such transaction continue to beneficially own, directly or indirectly (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the entity resulting from such transaction), more than fifty
(50) percent of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the entity resulting from such transaction (including, without limitation, Company or an entity which as a result of such transaction owns Company or all or
substantially all of Company’s property or assets, directly or indirectly) (the “Resulting Entity ”) outstanding immediately after such transaction, in substantially the same proportions relative to each other as their
ownership immediately prior to such transaction; and 

  

	 	2)	 No Person (other than any Person that beneficially owned, immediately prior to such
reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or other disposition, directly or indirectly, Voting Stock representing twenty (20) percent or more of the combined voting power of Company’s then outstanding securities)
beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, twenty (20) percent or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding securities of the Resulting Entity; and 

 

	 	3)	 At least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the entity resulting from such transaction were
members of the board of directors of Company (the “Board ”) at the time of the execution of the initial agreement or action of the Board authorizing such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or other
disposition; or 

  

	 	(C)	 Upon the consummation of a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of Company; or 

 

	 	(D)	 When the Initial Directors cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board.
For this purpose, an “Initial Director” shall mean those individuals serving as the directors of Company as of the date of this Agreement; 

  
 5 

	 	
provided, however, that any individual who becomes a director of Company at or after the first annual meeting of stockholders of Company following the date of this Agreement
whose election, or nomination for election by Company’s stockholders, was approved by the vote of at least a majority of the Initial Directors then comprising the Board (or by the nominating committee of the Board,
if such committee is comprised of Initial Directors and has such authority) shall be deemed to have been an Initial Director; and provided further, that no individual shall be deemed to be an Initial Director if such individual
initially was elected as a director of Company as a result of: (1) an actual or threatened solicitation by a Person (other than the Board) made for the purpose of opposing a solicitation by the Board with respect to
the election or removal of directors; or (2) any other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of any Person (other than the Board). 

 

	 	(iv)	 Termination Date. For purposes of this section 3, “Termination Date” shall mean the
date on which Executive terminates employment with Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates, as specified in the Notice of Termination.  

 

	 	(b)	 Change in Control Benefits. In the event Executive becomes entitled to receive benefits
under this section 3, the following shall apply: 

  

	 	(i)	 In consideration of Executive’s covenant in section 4 below, Executive shall be entitled to
receive the following amounts, payable as provided in section 3(j): 

  

	 	(A)	 A lump sum payment equal to the unpaid portion of Executive’s annual Base Salary and
vacation accrued through the Termination Date; 

  

	 	(B)	 A lump sum payment equal to Executive’s prorated Annual Incentive Plan payment;

  

	 	(C)	 A lump sum payment equal to Executive’s prorated Long-Term Cash Incentive Plan payment, if
any; and 

  

	 	(D)	 A lump sum payment equal to three times the sum of (1) Executive’s annual Base
Salary; and (2) the greater of (i) Executive’s target annual incentive (as defined in the Annual Incentive Plan) for the year in which the Change in Control occurs and
(ii) Executive’s average annual incentive calculated over the three (3) fiscal years immediately preceding the year in which the Change in Control occurs; and (3) an amount equal to the Company
matching contribution to the defined contribution plan in which Executive is participating at the Termination Date. 

Treatment of stock options, RSUs, or other equity awards shall be determined pursuant to Executive’s award agreement(s).
Executive shall not be eligible for any new Annual Incentive Plan grants, Long-Term Cash Incentive Plan grants, or any other grants of stock options, RSUs, or other equity awards under the Omnibus Plan with respect to the
CIC Severance Period as defined immediately below. 
  

	 	(ii)	 For a period of 36 months following Executive’s Termination Date (the “CIC Severance
Period ”), Executive shall have the right to elect continuation of the life insurance, personal accident insurance, travel accident insurance and accidental death and dismemberment insurance coverages which insurance coverages shall
be provided at the same levels and the same costs in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control. Beginning on his Termination Date, Executive shall be eligible to elect continued coverage under the group medical and
dental plan available to similarly situated senior executives. If Executive elects continuation coverage for medical coverage, dental coverage or both, he shall pay the entire COBRA premium charged for such continuation coverage during the
CIC Severance Period; provided, however, that during the CIC Severance Period, Company shall reimburse Executive, on a taxable basis if so elected by Company, for that portion of the COBRA premium paid that exceeds
the amount payable by an active executive of Company for similar coverage, as adjusted from time to time. Such reimbursement shall be made to Executive on the 20th day of each
calendar month during the CIC Severance Period, or within ten (10) business days thereafter. The amount eligible for reimbursement under this subparagraph in any calendar year shall not affect any amounts eligible for reimbursement to be
provided in any other calendar year. In addition, Executive’s right to reimbursement hereunder shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit. Executive’s right to COBRA continuation coverage under any
such group health plan shall be reduced by the number of months of coverage otherwise provided pursuant to this subparagraph. The premium charged for any continuation coverage after the end of the CIC Severance Period shall be entirely at
Executive’s expense and shall be the actuarially determined cost of the continuation coverage as determined by an actuary selected by the Company (in accordance with the requirements under COBRA, to the extent applicable). Executive
shall not be entitled to reimbursement of any portion of the premium charged for such coverage after the end of the CIC Severance Period. Executive’s COBRA continuation coverage shall terminate in accordance with the COBRA

  
 6 

	 	
continuation of coverage provisions under Company’s group medical and dental plans. If Executive has attained age fifty (50) and completed five (5) years of service
with Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates (or would attain age fifty (50) and complete five (5) years of service if the CIC Severance Period is considered as employment), then, after exhausting any COBRA
continuation coverage under the group medical plan, Executive may elect to participate in the Hanesbrands Inc. Choice Fund Open Access Plus HRA – Extended Medical Plan (or its successor) in accordance with the terms and conditions of
such plan in effect on and after Executive’s Termination Date; provided, that such retiree medical coverage shall not be available to Executive unless he elects such coverage within thirty (30) days following his
Termination Date. The premium charged for such retiree medical coverage may be different from the premium charged an active employee for similar coverage. 

  

	 	(iii)	 If the aggregate benefits accrued by Executive as of the Termination Date under the savings and
retirement plans sponsored by Company are not fully vested pursuant to the terms of the applicable plan(s), the difference between the benefits Executive is entitled to receive under such plans and the benefits he would have received
had he been fully vested will be provided to Executive under the Hanesbrands Inc. Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan (the “Supplemental Plan”). In addition, for purposes of determining Executive’s benefits
under the Supplemental Plan and Executive’s right to post-retirement medical benefits under the Hanesbrands Inc. Choice Fund Open Access Plus HRA – Extended Medical Plan (or its successor), additional years of age and
service credits equivalent to the length of the CIC Severance Period shall be included. However, Executive will not be eligible to begin receiving any retirement benefits under any such plans until the date he would otherwise be
eligible to begin receiving benefits under such plans. 

  

	 	(iv)	 Except as otherwise provided herein or in the applicable plan, participation in all other plans of
Company or any subsidiary or affiliate of Company available to similarly situated executives of Company, shall cease on Executive’s Termination Date. 

 

	 	(c)	 Termination for Disability. If Executive’s employment is terminated due to Disability
following a Change in Control, Executive shall receive his Base Salary through the Termination Date, at which time his benefits shall be determined in accordance with Company’s disability, retirement,
insurance and other applicable plans and programs then in effect, and Executive shall not be entitled to any other benefits provided by this Agreement. 

 

	 	(d)	 Termination for Retirement or Death. If Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of
his Voluntary Retirement or death following a Change in Control, Executive’s benefits shall be determined in accordance with Company’s retirement, survivor’s benefits, insurance, and other applicable
programs then in effect, and Executive shall not be entitled to any other benefits provided by this Agreement. 

  

	 	(e)	 Termination for Cause, or Other Than for Good Reason or Retirement. If Executive’s
employment is terminated either by Company for Cause, or voluntarily by Executive (other than for Good Reason) following a Change in Control, Company shall pay Executive his full Base Salary
and accrued vacation through the Termination Date, at the rate then in effect, plus all other amounts to which such Executive is entitled under any compensation plans of Company, at the time such payments are due, and
Company shall have no further obligations to such Executive under this Agreement. 

  

	 	(f)	 Separation and Release Agreement. No benefits under this section 3 shall be payable to Executive
unless Executive and Company have executed and Executive has delivered to Company a “Separation and Release Agreement” (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A) within forty-five
(45) days following the Termination Date and the release therein shall have become effective in accordance with its terms, and the payment of change in control benefits under this section 3 shall be subject to the terms and conditions of
the Separation and Release Agreement. 

  

	 	(g)	 Deferred Compensation. All amounts previously deferred by or accrued to the benefit of Executive
under any nonqualified deferred compensation plan sponsored by Company (including, without limitation, any vested amounts deferred under incentive plans), together with any accrued earnings thereon, shall be paid in accordance with the terms
of such plan following Executive’s termination. 

  

	 	(h)	 Notice of Termination. Any termination of employment under this section 3 by Company or by
Executive for Good Reason shall be communicated by a written notice which shall indicate the specific Change in Control termination provision relied upon, and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed
to provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated (a “Notice of Termination”). 

  
 7 

	 	(i)	 Termination of Benefits. All rights to receive or continue to receive severance payments and benefits
pursuant to this section 3 by reason of a Change in Control shall cease on the date Executive becomes reemployed by Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. 

 

	 	(j)	 Form and Timing of Benefits. Subject to the provisions of this section 3, the Change in Control
benefits described herein shall be paid to Executive in cash in a single lump sum payment as soon as practicable following the Termination Date, but in no event later than the fifteenth day of the third month after the date of the
Executive’s termination of employment. The Change in Control benefits payable to Executive pursuant to this subparagraph (j) are intended to be exempt from Section 409A (as defined in section 15)
under the exemption found in Regulation section 1.409A-(b)(4) for short-term deferrals. 

  

	 	(k)	 Excise Tax Adjustment. Subject to the limitation below, in the event that Executive becomes
entitled to any payment or benefit under this section 3 (such benefits together with any other payments or benefits payable under any other agreement with, or plan or policy of, Company are referred to in the aggregate as the “Total
Payments”), if all or any part of the Total Payments will, as determined by Company, be subject to the tax (the “Excise Tax”) imposed by Code section 4999 (or any similar tax that may hereafter be
imposed), then such payment shall be either: (i) provided to Executive in full, or (ii) provided to Executive to such lesser extent as would result in no portion of such payment being subject to such Excise Tax,
whichever of the foregoing amounts, when taking into account applicable federal, state, local and foreign income and employment taxes, such Excise Tax, and any other applicable taxes, results in the receipt by Executive, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of the payment, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such payment may be taxable under such Excise Tax. To the extent such payment needs to be reduced pursuant
to the preceding sentence, reductions shall come from taxable amounts before non-taxable amounts and beginning with the payments otherwise scheduled to occur soonest. Executive agrees to cooperate fully
with Company to determine the benefits applicable under this section. For purposes of determining whether any of the Total Payments will be subject to the Excise Tax, and the amounts of such Excise Tax, the following
shall apply: 

  

	 	(i)	 Any other payments or benefits received or to be received by Executive in connection with a Change in
Control or Executive’s termination of employment (whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, policy, arrangement or agreement with Company, or with any Person whose actions result in a
Change in Control or any Person affiliated with Company or such Persons) shall be treated as “parachute payments” within the meaning of Code section 280G(b)(2), and all “excess parachute
payments” within the meaning of Code section 280G(b)(1) shall be treated as subject to the Excise Tax, unless in the opinion of Company’s tax counsel as supported by Company’s independent auditors and
acceptable to Executive, such other payments or benefits (in whole or in part) do not constitute parachute payments, or unless such excess parachute payments (in whole or in part) represent reasonable compensation for services actually
rendered within the meaning of Code section 280G(b)(4) in excess of the base amount within the meaning of Code section 280G(b)(3), or are otherwise not subject to the Excise Tax; 

 

	 	(ii)	 The value of any noncash benefits or any deferred payment or benefit shall be determined by
Company’s independent auditors in accordance with the principles of Code sections 280G(d)(3) and (4); and 

  

	 	(iii)	 Executive shall be deemed to pay federal income taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal income
taxation, and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rate of taxation in the state and locality of Executive’s residence on the Termination Date, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be
obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes. 

  

	 	(l)	 Company’s Payment Obligation. Subject to the provisions of section 4, Company’s
obligation to make the payments and the arrangements provided in this section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional, and shall not be affected by any circumstances, including, without limitation, any offset, counterclaim, recoupment, defense, or
other right which Company may have against Executive or anyone else. All amounts payable by Company under this section 3 shall be paid without notice or demand and each and every payment made by Company shall be final,
and Company shall not seek to recover all or any part of such payment from Executive or from whomsoever may be entitled thereto, for any reason except as provided in section 3(k) above or in section 4. 

 

	 	(m)	 Other Employment. Executive shall not be obligated to seek other employment in
mitigation of the amounts payable or arrangements made under this section 3, and the obtaining of any such other employment shall in no event result in any reduction of Company’s obligations to make the payments and arrangements required
to be made under this section 3, except to the extent otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement. 

  
 8 

	 	(n)	 Payment of Legal Fees and Expenses. To the extent permitted by law, Company shall reimburse
Executive for all reasonable legal fees, costs of litigation or arbitration, prejudgment or pre-award interest, and other expenses incurred in good faith by Executive as a result of
Company’s refusal to provide benefits under this section 3, or as a result of Company contesting the validity, enforceability or interpretation of the provisions of this section 3, or as the result of any conflict (including
conflicts related to the calculation of parachute payments or the characterization of Executive’s termination) between Executive and Company; provided that the conflict or dispute is resolved in Executive’s
favor and Executive acts in good faith in pursuing his rights under this section 3. 

 Such reimbursement shall be
made within thirty (30) days following final resolution, in favor of Executive, of the conflict or dispute giving rise to such fees and expenses. In no event shall Executive be entitled to receive the reimbursements provided for
in this subparagraph if he acts in bad faith or pursues a claim without merit, or if he fails to prevail in any action instituted by him or Company. 
  

	 	(o)	 Arbitration for Change in Control Benefits. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection
with the benefits provided under this section 3 shall promptly and expeditiously be submitted to arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association in effect at the time of such arbitration
proceeding utilizing a panel of three (3) arbitrators sitting in a location selected by Executive within fifty (50) miles from the location of his employment with Company. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator
may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The costs and expenses of both parties, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees shall be borne by Company. Pending the resolution of any such dispute, controversy or
claim, Executive (and his beneficiaries) shall, except to the extent that the arbitrator otherwise expressly provides, continue to receive all payments and benefits due under this section 3. 

4. Remedies. In the event of any actual or threatened breach of the provisions of this Agreement or any separation and release
agreement, the party who claims such breach or threatened breach shall give the other party written notice and, except in the case of a breach which is not susceptible to being cured, ten calendar days in which to cure. In the event of a breach of
any provision of this Agreement or any separation and release agreement by Executive, (i) Executive shall reimburse Company: the full amount of any payments made under section 2(b)(i), (ii) or (iii) or section
3(b)(i) of this Agreement (as the case may be), (ii) Company shall have the right, in addition to and without waiving any other rights to monetary damages or other relief that may be available to Company at law or in equity, to
immediately discontinue any remaining payments due under subparagraph 2(b)(i), (ii) or (iii) or subparagraph 3(b)(i) of this Agreement (as the case may be) including but not limited to any remaining Salary Portion of
Severance payments, and (iii) the Severance Period or the CIC Severance Period (as the case may be) shall thereupon cease, provided that Executive’s obligations under, if applicable, any separation and release
agreement shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms for the entire duration of the Severance Period or CIC Severance Period as applicable. In addition, Executive acknowledges that Company will
suffer irreparable injury in the event of a breach or violation or threatened breach or violation of the provisions of this Agreement or any separation and release agreement and agrees that in the event of an actual or threatened breach or
violation of such provisions, in addition to the other remedies or rights available to under this Agreement or otherwise, Company shall be awarded injunctive relief in the federal or state courts located in North Carolina to prohibit
any such violation or breach or threatened violation or breach, without necessity of posting any bond or security. 
 5. Committee.
Except as specifically provided herein, this Agreement shall be administered by the Compensation and Benefits Committee of the Board (the “Committee”). The Committee may delegate any administrative duties,
including, without limitation, duties with respect to the processing, review, investigation, approval and payment of severance/Change in Control benefits, to designated individuals or committees. 

6. Claims Procedure. If Executive believes that he is entitled to receive severance benefits under this Agreement, he may
file a claim in writing with the Committee within ninety (90) days after the date such Executive believes he should have received such benefits. No later than ninety (90) days after the receipt of the claim, the
Committee shall either allow or deny the claim in writing. A denial of a claim, in whole or in part, shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by Executive and shall include the specific reason or reasons for the denial;
specific reference to the pertinent provisions of this Agreement on which the denial is based; a description of any additional material or information necessary for Executive to perfect the claim and an explanation of why such material
or information is necessary; and an explanation of the claim review procedure. Executive (or his duly authorized representative) may within sixty 60 days after receipt of the denial of his claim request a review upon written application
to the Committee; review pertinent documents; and submit issues and comments in writing. The Committee shall notify Executive of its decision on review within sixty (60) days after receipt of a request for review unless
special circumstances require an extension of time for processing, in which case a decision shall be rendered as soon as possible, but not later than one-hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of a
request for review. Notice of the decision on review shall be in writing. The Committee ’s decision on review shall be 

  
 9 

 
final and binding on Executive and any successor in interest. If Executive subsequently wishes to file a claim under section 502(a) of ERISA, any legal action must be filed within
ninety (90) days of the Committee’s final decision. Executive must exhaust the claims procedure provided in this section 6 before filing a claim under ERISA with respect to any benefits provided under section 2 of this
Agreement. 
 7. Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be sufficient if in
writing and either delivered in person or sent by first class, certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, if to Company at Company’s principal place of business, and if to Executive, at his home address most recently
filed with Company, or to such other address as either party shall have designated in writing to the other party. 
 8. Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina without regard to any state’s conflict of law principles. 

9. Severability and Construction. If any provision of this Agreement is declared void or unenforceable or against public policy,
such provision shall be deemed severable and severed from this Agreement and the balance of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any restriction in this
Agreement is overbroad or unreasonable under the circumstances, such restriction shall be modified or revised by such court to include the maximum reasonable restriction allowed by law. 

10. Waiver. Failure to insist upon strict compliance with any of the terms, covenants or conditions hereof shall not be deemed a waiver
of such term, covenant or condition. 
 11. Entire Agreement Modifications. This Agreement (including all exhibits hereto)
constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, oral and written, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. In the event of any inconsistency
between any provision of this Agreement and any provision of any plan, employee handbook, personnel manual, program, policy, arrangement or agreement of Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, the provisions of this
Agreement shall control. This Agreement may be modified or amended only by an instrument in writing signed by both parties. 

12. Withholding. All payments made to Executive pursuant to this Agreement will be subject to withholding of employment
taxes and other lawful deductions, as applicable. 
 13. Survivorship. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, to the
extent necessary to carry out the intentions of the parties hereunder the respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall survive any termination of Executive’s employment. 

14. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall bind and shall inure to the benefit of Company and any and all of its
successors and assigns. This Agreement is personal to Executive and shall not be assignable by Executive. Company may assign this Agreement to any entity which (i) purchases all or substantially all of the assets
of Company or (ii) is a direct or indirect successor (whether by merger, sale of stock or transfer of assets) of Company. Any such assignment shall be valid so long as the entity which succeeds to Company expressly
assumes Company’s obligations hereunder and complies with its terms. 
 15. Compliance with Code
Section 409A. To the extent applicable, it is intended that the payment of benefits described in this Agreement comply with Code section 409A and all guidance or regulations thereunder
(“Section 409A ”), or qualify for an exemption from Section 409A (e.g., the short-term deferral exception and the “two times” pay exemption applicable to severance payments).
This Agreement will, to the extent subject to Section 409A, at all times be construed in a manner to comply with Section 409A and should any provision be found not in compliance with
Section 409A, Executive hereby agrees to any changes to the terms of this Agreement deemed necessary and required by legal counsel for Company to achieve compliance with
Section 409A, including any applicable exemptions. By signing a copy of this Agreement, Executive irrevocably waives any objections he may have to any changes that may be required by
Section 409A. In no event will any payment that becomes payable pursuant to this Agreement that is considered “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A, if any, and
does not satisfy any of the applicable exemptions under Section 409A, be accelerated in violation of Section 409A. To the extent that any amount payable hereunder upon Executive’s
termination of employment is subject to Section 409A, payment shall not be made until Executive incurs a “separation from service,” as defined in Section 409A, from Company.
If Executive is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A, any payment that becomes payable upon his termination of employment pursuant to this Agreement that is considered “deferred
compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A and does not satisfy any of the applicable exemptions under Section 409A may not be made before the date that is six months after
Executive’s separation from service (or death, if earlier). To the extent Executive becomes subject to the six-month delay rule, all payments that would have been made to Executive
during the six months following his separation from service that are not otherwise exempt from Section 409A, if any, will be accumulated and paid to Executive during the seventh month following his separation from
service, and any remaining payments due will be made in their ordinary course as described in this Agreement. Company will notify Executive should he become subject to the six-month delay
rule. For purposes of Section 409A, any right to receive any installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments.

 SEPARATION
AND RELEASE AGREEMENT 
 Hanesbrands Inc. (“Company”) and
                 (“Executive”) enter into this Separation and Release Agreement which was received by Executive on the

 WITNESSETH: 

WHEREAS, Executive has been employed by the Company as a
                ; and 
 WHEREAS, Executive’s

WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Severance/Change in Control Agreement between Company and Executive dated
                , 2020 (the “Change in Control Agreement”), upon a termination of Executive’s employment that satisfies the conditions specified in
the Change in Control Agreement, Executive is entitled to the benefits described in the Change in Control Agreement provided Executive executes a separation and release agreement acceptable to Company; and 

WHEREAS, this separation and release agreement (the “Agreement”) is intended to satisfy the requirements of the Change in
Control Agreement and to form a part of the Change in Control Agreement in such a manner that all the rights, duties and obligations arising between Executive and Company, including, but in no way limited to, any rights, duties and obligations that
have arisen or might arise out of or are in any way related to Executive’s employment with the Company and the conclusion of that employment are settled herein through the joinder of the Change in Control Agreement with this Agreement. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the obligations of the parties under the Change in Control Agreement and the additional covenants and
mutual promises herein contained, it is further agreed as follows: 
 1. Termination Date. Executive agrees to resign
Executive’s employment and all appointments Executive holds with Company, and its subsidiaries and affiliates, on the Termination Date. Executive understands and agrees that Executive’s employment with the Company will conclude on the
close of business on the Termination Date. 
 2. Termination Benefits. Executive and Company agree that Executive shall receive the
benefits described in the Change in Control Agreement, less all applicable withholding taxes and other customary payroll deductions, provided in the Change in Control Agreement. 

3. Receipt of Other Compensation. Executive acknowledges and agrees that, other than as specifically set forth in the Change in Control
Agreement or this Agreement, following the Termination Date, Executive is not and will not be due any compensation, including, but not limited to, compensation for unpaid salary (except for amounts unpaid and owing for Executive’s employment
with Company, its subsidiaries or affiliates prior to the Termination Date), unpaid bonus, severance and accrued or unused vacation time or vacation pay from the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. Except as provided herein or in the
Change in Control Agreement, Executive will not be eligible to participate in any of the benefit plans of the Company after Executive’s Termination Date. However, Executive will be entitled to receive benefits which are vested and accrued prior
to the Termination Date pursuant to the employee benefit plans of the Company. Any participation by Executive (if any) in any of the compensation or benefit plans of the Company as of and after the Termination Date shall be subject to and determined
in accordance with the terms and conditions of such plans, except as otherwise expressly set forth in the Change in Control Agreement or this Agreement. 

4. Continuing Cooperation. Following the Termination Date, Executive agrees to cooperate with all reasonable requests for information
made by or on behalf of Company with respect to the operations, practices and policies of the Company. In connection with any such requests, the Company shall reimburse Executive for all out-of-pocket expenses reasonably and necessarily incurred in responding to such request(s). 
 5.
Executive’s Representation and Warranty. Executive hereby represents and warrants that, during Executive’s period of employment with the Company, Executive did not willfully or negligently breach Executive’s duties as an
employee or officer of the Company, did not commit fraud, embezzlement, or any other similar dishonest conduct, and did not violate the Company’s business standards. 

 6. Non-Solicitation and Non-Compete. In consideration of the benefits provided under this Agreement and in the Change in Control Agreement, Executive agrees that during Executive’s employment and for the duration of the applicable
Severance Period as determined pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control Agreement, Executive will not, without the prior written consent of Company, either alone or in association with others, (a) solicit for employment or assist or
encourage the solicitation for employment, any employee of Company, or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, (b) induce or attempt to induce any customer (i) with whom Executive or any employee under Executive’s direct supervision
had material contact during the last two years of Executive’s employment with the Company or (ii) about whom Executive obtained trade secrets or confidential information in the course of Executive’s employment with the Company to
cease or reduce doing business with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, or interfere with the relationship between the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, on the one hand, and any such customer, on the other hand, or
(c) within the Territory, directly or indirectly counsel, advise, perform services for, or be employed by, or otherwise engage or participate in, in each case, in any capacity that is similar to the capacity in which Executive provided services
to the Company or that could require the performance of duties or functions similar to those performed as an employee of the Company, any Competing Business (regardless of whether Executive receives compensation of any kind). For purposes of this
Agreement, a “Competing Business” shall mean any commercial activity which competes or is reasonably likely to compete with any business that the Company conducts, or demonstrably anticipates conducting, at any time during

Executive. 
 7. Confidentiality. At all times after the Effective Date, Executive will maintain the confidentiality of all
information in whatever form concerning Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates relating to its or their businesses, customers, finances, strategic or other plans, marketing, employees, trade practices, trade secrets, know-how or other matters which are not generally known outside Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, and Executive will not, directly or indirectly, make any disclosure thereof to anyone, or make any
use thereof, on Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any third party, unless specifically requested by or agreed to in writing by an executive officer of Company. In addition, Executive agrees that Executive will not disclose the existence or

personal property which Executive received or prepared or helped prepare in connection with Executive’s employment and Executive will not retain any copies, duplicates, reproductions or excerpts thereof. The obligations of this paragraph 7
shall survive the expiration of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Executive is not prohibited from (i) providing truthful testimony or accurate information in connection with any investigation being
conducted into the business or operations of the Company by any government agency or other regulator that is responsible for enforcing a law on behalf of the government or (ii) otherwise providing information to the appropriate government
agency regarding conduct or action undertaken or omitted to be taken by the Company that Executive reasonably believes is illegal or in non-compliance with any financial disclosure or other legal or regulatory
requirement applicable to the Company, or from making any other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of applicable law or regulation; provided, that in making any such disclosures, Executive agrees to take all reasonable
precautions to prevent any unauthorized use or disclosure of any confidential information to any parties other than the relevant government agencies. Additionally, Executive will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state
trade secret law for any disclosure of a trade secret that: (A) is made (1) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (2) solely for the purpose of reporting
or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding. If Executive files a lawsuit for retaliation by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of
law, Executive may disclose the Company’s trade secrets to the Executive’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if the Executive (A) files any document containing trade secrets under seal; and
(B) does not disclose trade secrets, except pursuant to court order. Executive is not required to obtain the approval of, or give notice to, the Company or any of its representatives to take any action permitted under this Section 7.

criticize, orally or in writing, the business, products, policies, decisions, directors, officers or employees of Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to any person. Company also agrees that none of its executive officers will disparage
or criticize Executive to any person or entity. The obligations of this paragraph 8 shall survive the expiration of this Agreement.

acknowledges and agrees that this release and the covenant not to sue set forth in paragraph (c) below are essential and material terms of this Agreement and that, without such release and covenant not to sue, no agreement would have been

RIGHTS UNDER THIS RELEASE IS KNOWING AND VOLUNTARY AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE OLDER WORKERS BENEFIT PROTECTION ACT OF 1990; (ii) THAT EXECUTIVE UNDERSTANDS THE TERMS OF THIS RELEASE; (iii) THAT EXECUTIVE’S WAIVER OF RIGHTS IN THIS RELEASE
IS IN EXCHANGE FOR CONSIDERATION THAT WOULD NOT OTHERWISE BE OWING TO EXECUTIVE PURSUANT TO ANY PREEXISTING OBLIGATION OF ANY KIND HAD EXECUTIVE NOT SIGNED THIS RELEASE; (iv) THAT EXECUTIVE HEREBY IS AND HAS BEEN ADVISED IN WRITING BY COMPANY

Executive or any of the Released Parties from filing a charge with an administrative agency, from instituting any action required to enforce the terms of this Agreement, or from challenging the validity of this Agreement. In addition, nothing herein
shall be construed to prevent Executive from enforcing any rights Executive may have to recover vested benefits under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

alleged claims, demands, rights, causes of action, and other matters that are released in this paragraph 10; (iv) the same have not been transferred or assigned or caused to be transferred or assigned to any other person, firm, corporation or other
