WITNESSETH: WHEREAS, Director is a director of Newmont; and WHEREAS, in recognition of the Director&#8217;s service as a director of Newmont rendered and to be rendered during the 2024 calendar year, the Board of Directors, the Leadership Development and Compensation Committee and the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee (&#8220;Newmont Committee&#8221;) has awarded Director, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and those of the Newmont Corporation 2020 Stock Incentive Compensation Plan (&#8220;Plan&#8221;), the number of Director Restricted Stock Units (&#8220;DSUs&#8221;) specified below. Each DSU represents a right to receive a share of Newmont Common Stock (&#8220;Common Stock&#8221;) (rounded down to the nearest whole share), subject to the conditions and restrictions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the Plan. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, Newmont hereby documents such award to Director of ___ DSUs and, in connection with such award, Newmont and Director hereby agree as follows: AGREEMENT: 1. Immediate Vesting. The DSUs are immediately fully vested and nonforfeitable. 2. No Ownership Rights Prior to Issuance of Common Stock. Director shall not have any rights as a stockholder of Newmont with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the DSUs, including but not limited to the right to vote with respect to such shares of Common Stock, until and after such shares of Common Stock have been actually issued to Director and transferred on the books and records of Newmont; provided, however, that each DSU shall accrue Dividend Equivalents during the period from the date of this Agreement until the date such shares are delivered in accordance with Section 3, payable in cash at the time specified in Section 3 below. 3. Delivery of Shares of Common Stock. Within thirty (30) days following the date of Director&#8217;s retirement from the Board, Newmont shall cause to be delivered to Director the full number of shares of Common Stock underlying the DSUs, together with all accrued Dividend - 2 - Equivalents, subject to satisfaction of any applicable tax withholding pursuant to Section 5 hereof and Section 16 of the Plan. For purposes of this Agreement, &#8220;retirement&#8221; from the Board means separation from service (as a director, employee and all other service provider relationships) with Newmont and the Affiliates under any circumstances, including due to death. For the avoidance of doubt, a separation from service must meet the requirements of a &#8220;separation from service&#8221; within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code if Director is a U.S. taxpayer. 4. Nature of Grant. Director acknowledges receipt of and understands and agrees to the terms of the DSUs awarded hereunder and the Plan. In addition to the above terms, Director understands and agrees to the following: (a) Director hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees to be bound by all of the terms and provisions thereof, including the terms and provisions adopted after the date of this Agreement but prior to the distribution of Common Stock underlying the DSUs. If and to the extent that any provision contained in this Agreement is inconsistent with the Plan, the Plan shall govern. (b) Director acknowledges that this Agreement and the Plan set forth the entire understanding between Director and Newmont regarding the DSUs and the shares of Common Stock underlying the DSUs and supersedes any prior oral and written agreements pertaining to the DSUs and/or such shares. (c) The Plan is established voluntarily by Newmont, it is discretionary in nature, and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by Newmont at any time as set forth in the Plan. (d) All decisions with respect to future DSU grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of Newmont. (e) Director acknowledges that the Director&#8217;s acceptance of the DSUs, including the terms and conditions herein, is voluntary. (f) The future value of the underlying shares of Common Stock is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty. (g) Director acknowledges and understands the DSU grant and Director&#8217;s participation in the Plan shall not create a right to employment or service or be interpreted as forming or amending an employment or service contract with Newmont or any Affiliate. (h) The DSUs and the shares of Common Stock subject to the DSUs, and the income and value of same, are not intended to replace pension rights, if any. (i) For Directors who reside outside the U.S., Director acknowledges and agrees that neither Newmont, nor any Affiliate shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between Director&#8217;s local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the DSUs or of any amounts due to Director pursuant to the vesting of the DSUs or the subsequent sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired
