EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

    This Amended and Restated Employment Agreement (“Agreement”) is between iHeartMedia Management Services, Inc. (such entity together with all past, present, and future parents, divisions, operating companies, subsidiaries, and affiliates are referred to collectively herein as “Company”) and Jordan R. Fasbender (“Employee”).

1.TERM OF EMPLOYMENT
This Agreement commences effective as of April 1, 2022 (“Effective Date”) and shall continue until March 31, 2025 (the “Initial Term”). On April 1, 2025 and each anniversary thereof, the term of this Agreement shall be automatically extended for successive one (1) year periods (each, a “Renewal Term”) unless either the Company or the Employee elects not to extend this Agreement by giving at least sixty (60) days’ advance written notice of non-renewal to the other party that the Employment Period shall not be extended; provided, that, during the Initial Term, no later than December 1, 2024, the Company shall either provide advance written notice of non-renewal or shall commence discussions with Employee regarding any modifications to this Agreement.  If this Agreement is extended pursuant to the foregoing provisions, all terms and conditions of this Agreement shall remain the same; provided, however, that the terms of this Agreement may be modified in accordance with Section 19(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Employee’s employment may be earlier terminated by either party as set forth in Section 7. Employee’s period of employment hereunder, whether during the Initial Term or a Renewal Term, shall be referred to as the “Employment Period”.

2.TITLE AND EXCLUSIVE SERVICES

(b)Exclusive Services. Employee shall not be employed or render services elsewhere during the Employment Period, except board or advisory board work as agreed in writing between Employee and the Chief Executive Officer.  Employee may also participate in professional, civic or charitable organizations (and manage her personal investments) so long as such participation is unpaid and does not unreasonably interfere with the performance of Employee’s duties. 

3.COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS
(a)Base Salary. Employee shall initially be paid an annualized salary of Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($700,000.00), including retroactively from April 1, 2022 (pro-rated on a daily basis in respect of the period commencing April 1, 2022 through the date hereof, and paid in a lump sum on the Company’s first regularly scheduled payroll date following the date hereof). Beginning on April 1, 2023, Employee’s Base Salary will be Seven Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($725,000.00), and beginning on April 1, 2024, Employee’s Base Salary will be Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000) (Employee’s annualized salary as in effect from time to time, the “Base Salary”). The Base Salary shall be payable in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices and pursuant to Company policy, which may be amended from time to time. Employee is eligible and will be considered for salary increases (but not decreases) at Company’s discretion based on Company and/or individual performance.

(b)Vacation. Employee is eligible for 20 vacation days subject to the Employee Guide.

(c)Annual Bonus. Eligibility for an Annual Bonus is based on financial and performance criteria established by Company and approved in the annual budget, pursuant to the terms of the applicable bonus plan which operates at the discretion of Company and the Board (as defined below) and is not a guarantee of compensation.  The payment of any Annual Bonus shall be no later than March 15 of each calendar year following the year in which the Annual Bonus was earned, within the Short-Term Deferral period under the Internal Revenue Code Section 409A 
                                            

(“Section 409A”) and applicable regulations.  During the Company’s fiscal year 2022, Employee’s bonus Target shall be 100% of Employee’s highest Base Salary during the year in which the Annual Bonus is earned, and in each subsequent fiscal year, Employee’s bonus Target shall be 110% of Employee’s highest Base Salary during the year in which the Annual Bonus is earned (as applicable, the “Target Annual Bonus”).   

(d)Long Term Incentive Grant. Employee shall participate in any annual long-term incentive program instituted by the Company for its senior executives on similar terms and values applicable to similarly situated executives holding the same level of executive seniority and responsibility and consistent with prior grants made to Employee, with the actual grant subject to approval by the Board or the Committee, as applicable, in the same manner as approval for such similarly situated executives.  For the avoidance of doubt, for the purpose of any such long-term incentive program and any long-term incentive award held by Employee, the terms “Cause”, “Disability” and “Good Reason” (or any analogous term) shall have the definitions set forth in this Agreement with respect to Employee.

(e)Benefits.  Employee will be eligible to participate in various benefit programs provided by Company on the same terms and conditions as they are generally made available to other similarly situated executive employees. 

(f)Expenses. Company will reimburse Employee for business expenses, consistent with past practices pursuant to Company policy.

Any reimbursement that would constitute nonqualified deferred compensation shall be paid pursuant to Section 409A.

Employee is hereby provided notice that under the

(d)Termination By Company Without Cause/Termination By Employee with Good Reason/Non-Renewal by Company. 

i.If Company terminates Employee’s employment without Cause, or if Employee terminates employment with Good Reason (and such termination is not a Change in Control Termination) or as of the end of the Employment Period following Company issuing a written notice of non-renewal of this Agreement pursuant to Section 1, Company shall pay Employee within thirty (30) days following termination of Employee’s employment the accrued and unpaid Base Salary through the termination date determined by Company, unpaid prior year bonus, if any, and any payments required under applicable employee benefit plans (including accrued vacation and unreimbursed business expenses). 
ii.In addition, subject to Section 8(d)(iii), below, Company shall pay Employee (w) an amount equal to eighteen (18) months of Employee’s current Base Salary; (x) the COBRA Amount; (y) an amount equal to one and one-half (1.5) times the Employee’s Target Annual Bonus for the year in which termination occurs; and (z) the Pro-Rata Bonus, (collectively, such payments under this Section 8(d), the “Severance Payment”). Subject to Section 8(d)(iii) below, the Company shall also provide Employee with the Additional Vesting.
A.The COBRA Amount shall mean an amount in cash equal to the assumed COBRA premiums Employee would pay if Employee elected COBRA coverage for eighteen (18) months, for the health benefits coverage Employee had immediately prior to the termination date under the plan(s) in which Employee was participating immediately prior to the termination date, less Employee’s normal contribution for such coverage. For the avoidance of doubt, Employee shall be solely responsible for timely enrolling for any COBRA or Marketplace coverage and paying any required premiums and Company is not placing any restrictions upon the use by Employee of such payment(s) as a condition upon the receipt of the payment(s) under this Section 8. 
B.The Pro-Rata Bonus shall mean a pro-rata portion of the Target Annual Bonus for the year of termination equal to the product of (x) the number of days Employee was employed by the Company during the fiscal year of Employee’s termination of employment, divided by 365 and (y) the Employee’s Target Annual Bonus for the year in which Employee’s termination of employment occurs.
                                            

C.The Additional Vesting shall mean (i) with respect to time-based awards, an additional 18 months of service credit (less any earned pro-rated vesting provided for in the applicable award agreement upon such termination) and (ii) with respect to performance-based awards an additional 18 months of service credit (less any pro-rated service credit provided for in the applicable award agreement upon such termination) (e.g., if pro rated vesting or service credit upon such termination is 6 months, an additional 12 months of vesting or service credit would be provided hereunder); provided, that, in each case the number of months of service credit provided shall not be less than zero (0) . The Additional Vesting shall apply to those certain restricted stock units and those certain performance-based restricted stock units, in each case, granted on May 9, 2022 and any long-term incentive awards granted to Employee following the date hereof.  The terms and conditions of the underlying award agreements shall govern the timing of settlement of any restricted stock units or performance-based restricted stock units subject to the Additional Vesting. 
iii.Payment of the Severance Payment and the Additional Vesting shall be subject to and conditioned upon Employee’s execution and non-revocation of a Severance Agreement and General Release of Claims in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Release”), which shall be provided by Company to Employee no later than five (5) business days following Employee’s termination.  Company will pay Employee the Severance Payments in substantially equal installments on Company’s regularly scheduled payroll dates during the eighteen (18) month period following the Release Effective Date (as defined in the Release). 
iv.The Company agrees that Employee is not required to seek other employment or to attempt in any way to reduce any amounts payable to Employee by the Company and that if Employee becomes eligible to participate in other health and/or welfare plans, such eligibility alone shall not affect Employee’s and Employee’s eligible dependents’ entitlement to continued participation in any group health, dental and vision insurance plans in which Employee and Employee’s eligible dependents are then enrolled.  Except as hereinafter provided in Section 8(e)(v), the amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Agreement shall not be reduced by any compensation earned by Employee as the result of employment through self-employment or by another employer, by retirement benefits, by unemployment compensation, by offset against any amount claimed to be owed by Employee to the Company, or otherwise. 

(e)Termination By Company Without Cause/ Termination By Employee with Good Reason in connection with a Change in Control. 

i.If Company terminates employment without Cause or as of the end of the Employment Period following Company issuing a written notice of non-renewal of this Agreement pursuant to Section 1, or if Employee terminates employment with Good Reason, during the ninety (90) days prior or twelve (12) months following a Change in Control (as defined in the iHeartMedia, Inc. 2021 Long-Term Incentive Award Plan) (or otherwise prior to a Change in Control but after the execution of a definitive agreement which results in a Change in Control) (each, a “CIC Termination”), Company will pay the accrued and unpaid Base Salary through the termination date determined by Company, unpaid prior year bonus, if any, and any payments required under applicable employee benefit plans. 
ii.In addition, subject to Section 8(e)(iii) below, Company will pay (w) an amount equal to 24 months of Employee’s current Base Salary; (x) an amount equal to one and one-third (11⁄3) times the COBRA Amount; (y) an amount equal to two (2) times Employee’s Target Annual Bonus for the year in which termination occurs; and (z) the Pro-Rata Bonus, the “CIC Severance Payment”).  Subject to Section 8(e)(iii) below, to the extent that Employee’s Equity Awards do not otherwise vest in connection with a Change in Control or a qualifying termination thereafter in accordance with their terms, the Company shall provide Employee with the Additional Vesting. 
                                            

iii.Payment of the CIC Severance Payment and the Additional Vesting, if applicable, shall be subject to and conditioned upon Employee’s execution and non-revocation of the Release, which shall be provided by Company to Employee no later than five (5) business days following Employee’s termination.  Company will pay Employee the CIC Severance Payments in a lump sum on the Company’s first regularly scheduled payroll date following the Release Effective Date (as defined in the Release) or if later, the closing of the Change in Control.
iv.The Company agrees that Employee is not required to seek other employment or to attempt in any way to reduce any amounts payable to Employee by the Company and that if Employee becomes eligible to participate in other health and/or welfare plans, such eligibility alone shall not affect Employee’s and Employee’s eligible dependents’ entitlement to continued participation in any group health, dental and vision insurance plans in which Employee and Employee’s eligible dependents are then enrolled.  Except as hereinafter provided in Section 8(e)(v), the amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Agreement shall not be reduced by any compensation earned by Employee as the result of employment through self-employment or by another employer, by retirement benefits, by unemployment compensation, by offset against any amount claimed to be owed by Employee to the Company, or otherwise.  
v.To the extent that Employee terminates employment pursuant to Section 8(d), and subsequently becomes eligible for payments under this Section 8(e), the amount payable pursuant to this Section 8(e) shall be reduced by any payments previously made pursuant to Section 8(d), and, if a Release had been executed previously, Employee shall not be required to execute any additional Release. If a CIC Termination occurs prior to a Change in Control under this Section 8(e), the parties shall determine in good faith to what extent the severance payments under this Section 8(e) may be made in a lump sum or require continued installments under Section 8(d) in order to satisfy Section 409A.
 
(f)For purposes of calculating severance payments under Sections 8(d) and 8(e) of this Agreement, the Base Salary and Target Annual Bonus shall not take into account any reductions which would constitute Good Reason or which were made in the prior six (6) month period.  All payments pursuant to this Section 8 shall be subject to Company’s withholding and reporting obligations. 

(g)If Employee is in material breach of any post-employment obligations or covenants and such breach is not cured by Employee within ten (10) days following written notice from the Company, the Company shall have no obligation to pay Employee the Severance Payment or the CIC Severance Payment, as applicable.  Employee acknowledges the Severance Payment or the CIC Severance Payment, as applicable, and the Additional Vesting are adequate and independent consideration to support Employee’s General Release of claims referenced in Section 8(d), as it is something of value to which Employee would not have otherwise been entitled at termination had Employee not executed a General Release of claims.

9.PAYOLA, PLUGOLA AND CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
Employee acknowledges familiarity with Company policies on payola, plugola and sponsorship identification (collectively “Payola Policies”) and warrants that Employee will fully comply with such policies. Employee shall certify compliance with the Payola Policies from time to time as requested by the Company. Employee shall notify Company immediately in writing if there is any attempt to induce Employee to violate the Payola Policies. 

10.OWNERSHIP OF MATERIALS 
(a)Employee agrees that all inventions, improvements, discoveries, designs, technology, and works of authorship (including but not limited to computer software) made, created, conceived, or reduced to practice by Employee, whether alone or in cooperation with others, during employment, together with all patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret, and other intellectual property rights related to any of the foregoing throughout the world, are among other things works made for hire (the “Works”) and at all times are owned exclusively by Company, and in 
                                            

any event, Employee hereby assigns all ownership in such rights to Company.  Employee understands that the Works may be modified or altered and expressly waives any rights of attribution or integrity or other rights in the nature of moral rights (droit morale) for all uses of the Works.

Employee hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company as Employee’s agent and attorney-in-fact, to act for and on Employee’s behalf regarding obtaining and enforcing any intellectual property rights that were created by Employee during employment and related to the performance of Employee’s job.  Employee agrees not to incorporate any intellectual property created by Employee prior to Employee’s employment, or created by any third party, into any Company work product.  This Agreement does not apply to an invention for which no equipment, supplies, facility, or trade secret information of Company was used and which invention was developed entirely on Employee’s own time, so long as the invention does not (i) relate directly to the business of the Company, (ii) relate to the Company’s actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development, or (iii) result from any work performed by Employee for Company.
(b)The terms of this Section 10 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason.

Employee hereby consents to the Agreement being enforced by any successor or assign of the Company without the need for further notice to or consent by Employee. Neither this Agreement nor any rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned by Employee, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

13.LITIGATION AND REGULATORY COOPERATION
During and after employment, Employee shall reasonably cooperate in the defense or prosecution of claims, investigations, or other actions which relate to events or occurrences during Employee’s employment with the Company. Employee’s cooperation shall include being available to prepare for discovery or trial and to act as a witness. Company will pay Employee a per diem rate (based on Base Salary as of the last day of employment) for cooperation that occurs after Employee’s employment with the Company, and reimburse Employee for reasonable expenses, including travel expenses, reasonable independent attorneys’ fees and costs. Any such cooperation following Employee’s employment with the Company shall be subject to Employee’s business and personal commitments. Employee shall not be required to cooperate against her own legal interests or the legal interests of any subsequent employer.

14.INDEMNIFICATION 
The Company shall indemnify the Employee to the fullest extent permitted by law, in effect at the time of the subject act or omission, and shall advance to the Employee reasonable 
                                            

attorneys’ fees and expenses as such fees and expenses are incurred (subject, to the extent required by applicable law, to an undertaking from the Employee to repay such advances if it shall be finally determined by a judicial decision which is not subject to further appeal that the Employee was not entitled to the reimbursement of such fees and expenses), and the Employee will be entitled to the protection of any insurance policies that the Company may elect to maintain generally for the benefit of its directors and officers against all costs, charges and expenses incurred or sustained by her in connection with any action, suit or proceeding to which she may be made a party by reason of her being or having been a director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or her serving or having served any other enterprise or benefit or equity plan as a director, officer, employee or fiduciary at the request of the Company (other than any dispute, claim or controversy arising under or relating to this Agreement). The Company covenants to maintain during the Employee’s employment and for six (6) years thereafter for the benefit of the Employee (in her capacity as an officer of the Company) Directors and Officers Insurance providing benefits to the Employee no less favorable, taken as a whole, than the benefits provided to the other similarly situated employees of the Company by the Directors and Officers Insurance maintained by the Company on the date hereof or, if greater, hereafter; provided, however, that the Board may elect to terminate Directors and Officers Insurance for all officers and directors, including the Employee, if the Board determines in good faith that such insurance is not commercially available.  

15.DISPUTE RESOLUTION
(a)Arbitration.  This Agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. and evidences a transaction involving commerce.  This Dispute Resolution Provision applies to any dispute arising out of or related to Employee's employment with Company or termination of employment and shall apply to the Release.  Nothing contained in this Provision shall be construed to prevent or excuse Employee from using the Company’s existing internal procedures for resolution of complaints, and this Provision is not intended to be a substitute for the use of such procedures.  Except as it otherwise provides, this Provision is intended to apply to the resolution of disputes that otherwise would be resolved in a court of law, and therefore this Provision requires all such disputes to be resolved only by an arbitrator through final and binding arbitration and not by way of court or jury trial.  Such disputes include without limitation disputes arising out of or relating to interpretation or application of this Agreement, including the enforceability, revocability or validity of the Agreement or any portion of the Agreement.  The Provision also applies, without limitation, to disputes regarding the employment relationship, trade secrets, unfair competition, compensation, breaks and rest periods, termination, or harassment and claims arising under the Uniform Trade Secrets Act, Civil Rights Act of 1964, Americans With Disabilities Act, Age Discrimination in Employment Act, Family Medical Leave Act, Fair Labor Standards Act, and state statutes, if any, addressing the same or similar subject matters, and all other state statutory and common law claims.

(b)The following claims are excluded from this Provision: workers compensation, state disability insurance, unemployment insurance claims, and claims for benefits under employee benefit plans covered by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act that contain an appeal procedure or other exclusive and/or binding dispute resolution procedure in the respective plan.  Disputes that may not be subject to pre-dispute arbitration agreements as provided by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Public Law 111-203) are also excluded from the coverage of this Provision.  Nothing in this Provision prevents Employee from making a report to or filing a claim or charge with a government agency, including without limitation the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, U.S. Department of Labor, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, National Labor Relations Board, or Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs. Nothing in this Provision prevents the investigation by a government agency of any report, claim or charge otherwise covered by this Agreement.  This Provision also does not prevent federal administrative agencies from adjudicating claims and awarding remedies based on those claims, even if the claims would otherwise be covered by this Provision.  Nothing in this Provision shall be deemed to preclude or excuse a party from bringing an administrative claim before any agency in order to fulfill the party's obligation to exhaust administrative remedies before making a claim in arbitration.  The Company will not retaliate 
                                            

against Employee for filing a claim with an administrative agency or for exercising rights (individually or in concert with others) under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act.

(c)The Arbitrator shall be selected by mutual agreement of the Company and the Employee. Unless the Employee and Company mutually agree otherwise, the Arbitrator shall be an attorney licensed to practice in the location where the arbitration proceeding will be conducted or a retired federal or state judicial officer who presided in the jurisdiction where the arbitration will be conducted. If for any reason the parties cannot agree to an Arbitrator, either party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction with authority over the location where the arbitration will be conducted for appointment of a neutral Arbitrator. The court shall then appoint an Arbitrator, who shall act under this Provision with the same force and effect as if the parties had selected the Arbitrator by mutual agreement. The location of the arbitration proceeding shall be no more than 45 miles from the place where the Employee last worked for the Company, unless each party to the arbitration agrees in writing otherwise. 

(d)A demand for arbitration must be in writing and delivered by hand or first- class mail to the other party within the applicable statute of limitations period. Any demand for arbitration made to the Company shall be provided to the Company's Legal Department, 20880 Stone Oak Parkway, San Antonio, Texas 78258. The Arbitrator shall resolve all disputes regarding the timeliness or propriety of the demand for arbitration. 

(e)In arbitration, the parties will have the right to conduct adequate civil discovery, bring dispositive motions, and present witnesses and evidence as needed to present their cases and defenses, and any disputes in this regard shall be resolved by the Arbitrator. The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure shall govern any depositions or discovery efforts, and the arbitrator shall apply the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure when resolving any discovery disputes. 

(f)Class Action Waiver.  In the event of any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of employment with, or otherwise relating to Employee’s relationship with Company, claims may only be brought by Employee or by Company in the Employee’s individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, or other joint proceeding.  In that regard, Employee specifically agrees not to file, initiate directly or indirectly, join or participate in any class, collective, or other representative proceeding against Company and its respective directors, officers, agents, representatives and employees.  If a class, collective, or other representative proceeding is filed purporting to include Employee, Employee shall promptly take all steps to refrain from opting in or to opt-out and will otherwise exclude him/herself from the proceeding, as applicable.  Claims covered by this waiver may not be joined or consolidated with claims of other individuals without the consent of both Company and Employee.  Notwithstanding any other clause contained in this Agreement, the preceding Class Action Waiver shall not be severable from this Provision in any case in which the dispute to be arbitrated is brought as a class, collective or representative action.  Although an Employee will not be retaliated against, disciplined or threatened with discipline as a result of Employee’s exercising his or her rights under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act by the filing of or participation in a class, collective or representative action in any forum, the Company may lawfully seek enforcement of this Provision and the Class Action Waiver under the Federal Arbitration Act and seek dismissal of such class, collective or representative actions or claims.  Notwithstanding any other clause contained in this Provision, any claim that all or part of the Class Action Waiver is unenforceable, unconscionable, void or voidable may be determined only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator.

(g)Each party will pay the fees for his, her or its own attorneys, subject to any remedies to which that party may later be entitled under applicable law. However, in all cases where required by law, the Company will pay the Arbitrator’s and arbitration fees. If under applicable law the Company is not required to pay all of the Arbitrator’s and/or arbitration fees, such fee(s) will be apportioned between the parties by the Arbitrator in accordance with applicable law. 

(h)Within thirty (30) days of the close of the arbitration hearing, any party will have the right to prepare, serve on the other party and file with the Arbitrator a brief. The Arbitrator may award 
                                            

any party any remedy to which that party is entitled under applicable law, but such remedies shall be limited to those that would be available to a party in a court of law for the claims presented to and decided by the Arbitrator. The Arbitrator will issue a decision or award in writing, stating the essential findings of fact and conclusions of law. Except as may be permitted or required by law, neither a party nor an Arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of all parties. A court of competent jurisdiction shall have the authority to enter a judgment upon the award made pursuant to the arbitration. 

(i)Injunctive Relief.  A party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for temporary or preliminary injunctive relief in connection with an arbitrable controversy, but only upon the ground that the award to which that party may be entitled may be rendered ineffectual without such provisional relief.

(j)This Section 15 is the full and complete agreement relating to the formal resolution of employment-related disputes. In the event any portion of this Section 15 is deemed unenforceable and except as set forth in Section 15(f), the remainder of this Agreement will be enforceable. 

(k)This Section 15 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason.

16.REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF EMPLOYEE
Employee represents that Employee is under no contractual or other restriction inconsistent with the execution of this Agreement, the performance of Employee’s duties hereunder, or the rights of Company.  Employee represents that Employee is under no disability that prevents Employee from performing the essential functions of Employee’s position, with or without reasonable accommodation.

17.LIMITATION ON PAYMENTS
(a)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that any payment or benefit received or to be received by the Employee or paid on the Employee’s behalf (including any payment or benefit received in connection with a termination of the Employee’s employment, whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, any other plan, arrangement or agreement or otherwise) (all such payments and benefits, including the payments and benefits under this Section 17, being hereinafter referred to as the “Total Payments”) would be subject (in whole or part), to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (or any similar tax that may be imposed by any taxing authority) (such excise tax or similar tax, the “Excise Tax”), then the Total Payments shall be reduced solely to the extent necessary to ensure that no portion of the Total Payments is subject to the Excise Tax but only if (i) the net amount of such Total Payments, as so reduced (and after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income or payroll taxes on such reduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such reduced Total Payments) is greater than or equal to (ii) the net amount of such Total Payments without such reduction (but after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local or payroll income taxes on such Total Payments and the amount of Excise Tax to which the Employee would be subject in respect of such unreduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such unreduced Total Payments). If a reduction is to occur pursuant to this Section 17(a)(i), unless an affirmative election by the Employee is permitted by (such that it would not result in taxation under) Section 409A of the Code, the reduction to the Total Payments shall be implemented in the following order: (x) cash severance payments under this Agreement; (y) accelerated vesting of any equity-based awards; (z) non-cash benefits under this Agreement; and any other payments or benefits under this Agreement or otherwise. If no 
                                            

reduction is to occur pursuant to this Section 17(a)(i), the Total Payments shall be delivered and paid to the Employee in full.

(b)For purposes of determining whether and the extent to which the Total Payments will be subject to the Excise Tax, (i) no portion of the Total Payments the receipt or enjoyment of which the Employee shall have waived at such time and in such manner as not to constitute a “payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b) of the Code shall be taken into account; (ii) no portion of the Total Payments shall be taken into account which, in the written opinion of an independent, nationally recognized accounting firm and/or tax counsel appointed or engaged by the Company with the Employee’s prior written consent prior to any change in ownership or control (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.280G-1, Q&As 27 - 29) (the “Independent Advisors”), does not constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code (including by reason of Section 280G(b)(4)(A) of the Code) and, in calculating the Excise Tax, no portion of such Total Payments shall be taken into account which, in the written opinion of Independent Advisors, constitutes reasonable compensation for services actually rendered (or for holding oneself out as available to perform services and refraining from performing services (such as under a covenant not to compete)), in excess of the “base amount” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) allocable to such reasonable compensation; and (iii) the value of any non-cash benefit or any deferred payment or benefit included in the Total Payments shall be determined by the Independent Advisors in accordance with the principles of Sections 280G of the Code. In the event that the Independent Advisors are serving as accountants, auditors or counsel for the individual, entity or group effecting the change in ownership or control (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.280G-1, Q&As 27 - 29), the Company shall appoint another nationally recognized accounting firm and/or tax counsel to make the determinations hereunder, subject to the written consent of Employee which shall not be unreasonably withheld (which firm(s) shall then be referred to as the “Independent Advisors” hereunder). All determinations hereunder shall be made by the Independent Advisors, who shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and the Employee at such time as it is requested by the Company or the Employee. The determination of the Independent Advisors shall be final and binding upon the Company and the Employee, absent manifest error. The Company shall be responsible for all charges for the Independent Advisors. The Company and the Employee shall promptly deliver to each other copies of any written communications, and summaries of any verbal communications, with any taxing authority regarding the Excise Tax covered by this Section 17.

18.SECTION 409A COMPLIANCE
Payments under this Agreement (the “Payments”) are intended to be designed and operated in such a manner that they are either exempt from the application of, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A, the Regulations, applicable case law and administrative guidance. In the event that the parties determine that the payments and benefits under this Agreement are not in compliance with or exempt from Section 409A, the parties shall in good faith attempt to modify this Agreement to comply with Section 409A while endeavoring to maintain the intended economic benefits hereunder.  All Payments shall be deemed to come from an unfunded plan. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, all Payments subject to Section 409A will not be accelerated in time or schedule. Employee and Company will not be able to change the designated time or form of any Payments subject to Section 409A. To the extent that the period of time during which Employee may execute the Release spans two calendar years, the Severance Payment or CIC Severance Payment, as applicable shall be delayed until the second calendar year. In addition, to the extent the Severance Payment or the CIC Severance payment is deferred compensation and subject to Section 409A, it will only be payable upon a “separation from service” (as that term is defined at Section 1.409A-1(h) of the Treasury Regulations) from the Company and from all other corporations and trades or businesses, if any, that would be treated as a single “service recipient” with the Company under Section 1.409A-1(h)(3). All payments hereunder shall be treated as separate payments for purposes of Section 409A. All references in this Agreement to a termination of employment and correlative terms shall be construed to require a “separation from service.”  Notwithstanding 
                                            

anything herein to the contrary, to the extent that a Payment is subject to, and not exempt from, Section 409A, if Employee is a “specified employee” as such term is defined under Section 409A, payment of the Severance Payment or the CIC Severance Payment, as applicable shall be delayed for a period of six (6) months following Employee’s separation of employment to the extent and up to an amount necessary to ensure such payments are not subject to  penalties and interest under Section 409A.  If the payments are delayed as a result of the previous sentence, then on the first business day following the end of such six (6) month period (or such earlier date upon which such amount can be paid under Section 409A without resulting in a prohibited distribution, such as Employee’s death), the Company shall pay Employee a lump sum amount equal to the cumulative amount that would have otherwise been payable to Employee during such period.  
19.MISCELLANEOUS
(a)Withholding.  The Company shall withhold from any amounts to be paid or benefits provided to Employee hereunder any federal, state, local, or foreign withholding or other taxes or charges which it is from time to time required to withhold.  
(b)Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof for the period defined and, upon its Effective Date, supersedes and nullifies all prior or contemporaneous conversations, negotiations, or agreements (oral or written) regarding the subject matter of this Agreement, including without limitation that certain Employment Agreement by and between Employee and the Company effective as of January 1, 2021.  To the extent this Agreement has been executed prior to its Effective Date and other agreements are in place as of the date of execution, such other agreements remain in place until the Effective Date has been reached, and the terms of this Agreement shall not be in effect unless and until the Effective Date has been reached.  
(c)Amendments. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except in writing signed by Employee and Company and approved by a representative of Company’s Legal Department.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, a counterpart transmitted via electronic means, and all executed counterparts, when taken together, shall constitute sufficient proof of the parties’ entry into this Agreement. 
(d)Full Performance. The parties agree to execute any further or future documents which may be necessary to allow the full performance of this Agreement. The failure of a party to require performance of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the right of such party to later enforce any provision. A waiver of the breach of any term or condition of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term or condition. 
(e)Blue Pencil; Injunctive Relief. If any provision of this Agreement shall, for any reason, be held unenforceable, such unenforceability shall not affect the remaining provisions hereof, except as specifically noted in this Agreement, or the application of such provisions to other persons or circumstances, all of which shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by law. Company and Employee agree that the restrictions contained in Section 4, 5, 6, and 10, are material terms of this Agreement, reasonable in scope and duration and are necessary to protect Company’s Confidential Information, goodwill, specialized training expertise, and legitimate business interests. If any restrictive covenant is held to be unenforceable because of the scope, duration or geographic area, the parties agree that the court or arbitrator may reduce the scope, duration, or geographic area, and in its reduced form, such provision shall be enforceable. Should Employee violate the provisions of Sections 5, or 6, then in addition to all other remedies available to Company, the duration of these covenants shall be extended for the period of time when Employee began such violation until Employee permanently ceases such violation. Employee agrees that no bond will be required if an injunction is sought to enforce any of the covenants previously set forth herein.  
(f)Expiration of Employment Period. In the event that Employee’s employment continues for any period of time following the end of the Employment Period, unless and until agreed to in a new 
                                            

executed agreement, such employment or continuation thereof is “at-will” and may be terminated at any time by either party.    
(g)Construction. The headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not control the meaning of any provision hereof.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to control or modify which entity (among the Company’s family of entities) is the Employee’s legal employer for purposes of any laws or regulations governing the employment relationship.  
(h)Company Policies. Employee acknowledges receipt of the iHeartMedia Employee Guide (“Employee Guide”), Code of Conduct and other Company policies (available on the Company’s intranet website) and agrees to review and abide by their terms, which along with any other policy referenced in this Agreement may be amended from time to time at Company’s discretion.  Employee understands that Company policies do not constitute a contract between Employee and Company.  Any conflict between such policies and this Agreement shall be resolved in favor of this Agreement.
(i)Effective Date. Upon full execution by all parties, this Agreement shall be effective on the Effective Date in Section 1.

each Private Placement Warrant assumed by Nikola shall be determined by dividing the per share exercise price of Romeo Common Stock subject to such Private Placement Warrant, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, by 0.1186 and
rounding the resulting exercise price to the nearest whole cent; and (iv) any restriction on any Private Placement Warrant assumed by Nikola shall continue in full force and effect, and the term and other provisions of such Private Placement
Warrant shall otherwise remain unchanged;

holders.

 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein and other good
and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereby agree as follows: 
  

	 	1.	 The first sentence of the Warrant Agreement, effective at the Effective Time and conditioned on the
consummation of the Merger, is hereby amended as follows: 

 THIS WARRANT AGREEMENT (this
“Agreement”), dated as of February 7, 2019, is by and between Romeo Power, Inc., a Delaware corporation, (f/k/a RMG Acquisition Corp.), (the “Company”), and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust, a New
York limited purpose trust company, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agent”, also referred to herein as the “Transfer Agent”). 
  

	 	2.	 Section 9.02 of the Warrant Agreement, effective at the Effective Time and conditioned on the consummation
of the Merger, is hereby amended to direct that all notices, instructions and communications under the Warrant Agreement to the Warrant Agent shall be delivered to:

	 	3.	 AST hereby resigns as Warrant Agent under the Warrant Agreement, and the Company hereby appoints Continental to
act as the Warrant Agent for the Company under the Warrant Agreement, and Continental hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the same duties and obligations in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Warrant
Agreement as modified by this Amendment No.1. 

  

	 	4.	 The validity, interpretation, and performance of this Amendment No.1 shall be governed in all respects by the
laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that any action, proceeding or claim
against it arising out of or relating in any way to this Amendment No.1 shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and irrevocably submits to such
jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be exclusive. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient forum.
