This Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of the Grant Date set forth in the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Grant (the “Grant Notice,” and together with this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, the “Agreement”) to which this Agreement is attached, is made between NRG Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) and the Participant, as set forth in the Grant Notice. The Grant Notice is included in, and made part of, this Agreement.

1.Grant of RSUs

Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Vivint Smart Home, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the Company hereby grants to the Participant the number of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) set forth in the Grant Notice.

2.Vesting Schedule

Provided that you have been continuously employed by the Company during the vesting period, the RSUs will vest one-third each year beginning on the first anniversary of the Date of Grant. For the avoidance of doubt, the vesting period for the second and third portions of the RSUs begins when the previous one-third portion of the RSUs has completed vesting.

3.Conversion of RSUs and Issuance of Shares

As soon as reasonably practicable following vesting of the RSUs, subject to satisfaction of applicable tax withholding obligations in accordance with Section 12(g), the Company shall cause to be paid to the Participant one (1) share of NRG Energy, Inc. Common Stock for each RSU that vests on such vesting date, provided, however, that if the Participant incurs a Termination of Service that qualifies for vesting as described in Section 8, then such payment shall be made on the next administratively feasible regularly scheduled payroll date but at no time more than sixty (60) days after the vesting date described in the applicable subsection of Section 8, and, in accordance with Section 12(g), the Fair Market Value of the RSUs shall be determined as of such vesting date, less applicable taxes.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3 to the contrary, if at the time of the Participant’s separation from service within the meaning of Code Section 409A, the Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A, any payment hereunder that constitutes a “deferral of compensation” under Code Section 409A and that would otherwise become due on account of such separation from service, shall be delayed, and payment shall be made in full upon the earlier of (a) a date during the thirty-day period commencing six (6) months and one (1) day following such separation from service and (b) the date of the Participant’s death.

4.Dividend Equivalent Rights

Cash dividends on shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder shall be credited to a dividend book entry account on behalf of the Participant with respect to each RSU granted to the Participant; provided that such cash dividends shall be deemed to be reinvested in shares of Common Stock immediately following the time declared at the then Fair Market Value of the Common Stock and shall vest and be paid at the same time that the shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs vest and are delivered to the Participant in accordance with the provisions hereof. Stock dividends on shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder shall be credited to a dividend book entry account on behalf of the Participant with respect to each RSU granted to the Participant; provided that such stock dividends shall vest and be paid at the same time that the shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs vest and are delivered to the Participant in accordance with the provisions hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that there are insufficient shares of Common Stock available in the Plan to settle the accrued dividends in shares of Common Stock, such shares of Common Stock shall be settled in cash in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of such shares of Common Stock at the time of settlement. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock underlying any RSU unless and until the Participant has become the holder of record of such shares.

5.Transfer of RSUs

Unless otherwise permitted by the Committee or Section 13 of the Plan, the RSUs may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than

2

pursuant to a will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any attempted disposition in violation of this Section 5 and Section 13 of the Plan shall be void.

6.Status of Participant

The Participant shall not be, and, except as otherwise provided herein, shall not have rights as, a stockholder of the Company with respect to any of the shares of Common Stock subject to this Award, unless the Award has vested and shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs have been issued and delivered to the Participant. The Company shall not be required to issue or transfer any certificates for shares of Common Stock upon vesting of the Award until all applicable requirements of law have been complied with and such shares have been duly listed on any securities exchange on which the Common Stock may then be listed.

7.No Effect on Capital Structure

This Award shall not affect the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to reclassify, recapitalize or otherwise change its capital or debt structure or to merge, consolidate, convey any or all of its assets, dissolve, liquidate, windup, or otherwise reorganize.

8.Expiration and Forfeiture of Award

This Award shall vest and/or expire in the circumstances described in this Section 8. As used herein, “Termination of Service” means termination of a Participant’s employment by, or service to, the Company, including any of its Subsidiaries.

(a)Death

Upon a Termination of Service by reason of death, the Award shall vest in full and the Common Stock underlying the RSUs shall be issued and delivered to the Participant's legal representatives, heirs, legatees, or distributees in accordance with Section 3.

(b)Retirement

Retirement means (i) for any non-director, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, means (A) termination of service as a non-director after at least 10 years of service by such non-director and (B) attaining at least 55 years of age, and (ii) for any director, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, means termination of service as a director after at least five years of Board service by such director.

Upon a Termination of Service in the event of Retirement, the Award shall continue to vest according to the vesting schedule; provided that Retirement occurs more than twelve (12) months following the Date of Grant. Upon vesting, the shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs shall be issued and delivered to the Participant in accordance with Section 3.

(c)Disability

Upon a Termination of Service as a result of Disability, the Award shall vest in full, and the Common Stock underlying the RSUs shall be issued and delivered to the Participant in accordance with Section 3. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” means a disability that would entitle an eligible Participant to payment of monthly disability payments under any Company long-term disability plan or as otherwise determined by the Committee.

(d)Change in Control

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8 to the contrary, if the Company terminates the Participant’s employment without Cause in connection with a Change in Control (other than the Merger, as hereinafter defined), the RSUs shall vest in full immediately upon the later of such Change in Control or such termination of employment.  Upon vesting, the Common Stock underlying the RSUs shall be issued and delivered to the Participant in accordance with Section 3. The Company’s termination of the Participant’s employment may be treated as being in connection with a Change in Control only if such termination occurs during the period beginning six (6) months prior to the Change in Control and ending twenty-four (24) months following the Change in Control. The Committee shall determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, whether the Participant’s employment was terminated without Cause in connection with a Change in Control.

(e)Eligible Termination

Upon a Termination of Service by reason of an Eligible Termination (as defined below), the number of RSUs that shall vest and be delivered to the Participant shall be the pro-rated percentage of the total number of RSUs awarded that is equal to the percentage of time during the aggregate vesting period for all RSUs awarded that the Participant was actually continuously employed by the Company (the “Pro-Rated Award”). The Pro-Rated Award shall vest on the fifteenth (15th) day of the month that follows the month in which the Release (as defined below) becomes irrevocable; provided, that (i) in the event the aggregate consideration and revocation period applicable to the Release spans two (2) calendar years, vesting of the Pro-Rated Award shall occur in the second calendar year; and (ii) in the event aggregate consideration and revocation period applicable tothe Release ends in December, the Pro-Rated Award shall vest on December 31. Upon vesting, the Pro-Rated Award shall be issued and delivered to the Participant in accordance with Section 3.

For purposes of this Section 8(e), “Eligible Termination” means an involuntary Termination of Service in connection with the sale of a business segment, restructuring or reduction in workforce. In order to be deemed an Eligible Termination, the Participant must execute and not revoke a general release of claims in favor of the Company in a form and with terms and conditions drafted by and acceptable to the Company, which is executed, and not revoked, by the Participant as a condition to receiving the benefit described herein (the “Release”). For the avoidance of doubt: (i) an involuntary Termination of Service by reason of a Change in Control, Cause, death, or Disability is not an Eligible Termination and (ii) in the event an Eligible Termination occurs and the Award also meets the requirements for Retirement, the Award shall vest in accordance with Section 8(b). The Committee shall determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, whether a Termination of Service was by reason of an Eligible Termination.

Except as provided in Section 8(i), any unvested portion of this Award shall expire and be forfeited by the Participant to the Company upon a Termination of Service by: (i) any reason other than death, Retirement, Disability, or without Cause in connection with a Change in Control, including, without limitation, as a result of retirement or disability that does not meet the requirements set forth in the definitions of such terms in the Plan or this Agreement; (ii) voluntary resignation; or (iii) termination for Cause.

All RSUs shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture, or recoupment to the extent necessary to comply with (i) any clawback, forfeiture, or other similar policy adopted by the Board or the Committee and is in effect from time to time and (ii) applicable law. Further, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, to the extent that the Participant receives any amount in excess of the amount that the Participant should otherwise have received under the terms of the Award for any reason (including, without limitation, by reason of a financial restatement, mistake in calculations or other administrative error), the Participant shall be required to repay any such excess amount to the Company.

(h) Detrimental Activity

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if a Participant has engaged in any Detrimental Activity, as determined by the Committee, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for one or more of the following: (i) cancellation of any or all of such Participant’s outstanding Awards; or (ii) forfeiture by the Participant of any gain realized on the vesting of the Award, and repayment of any such gain promptly to the Company. For purposes of this Agreement “Detrimental Activity” means any of the following: (i) unauthorized disclosure of any confidential or proprietary information of the Company or any Subsidiary; (ii) any activity that would be grounds to terminate the Participant’s employment with the Company or any Subsidiary for Cause; (iii) the Participant having engaged in a violation of any provisions of any agreement with the Company or a Subsidiary, containing covenants regarding non-competition, non-solicitation, non-disparagement and/or non-disclosure obligations; or (iv) fraud or conduct contributing to any financial restatements or irregularities, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.

For purposes of this Section 8(i) “Closing” shall mean the Closing of the transaction in which Vivint Smart Home, Inc. became a wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company on March 10, 2023 (the “Merger”).

(c)Undertaking

The Participant hereby agrees to take whatever additional action, and execute whatever additional documents, the Company may deem necessary or advisable in order to carry out or effect one or more of the obligations or restrictions imposed on either the Participant or the Award pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement.

LEGAL\61899786\10

Company intends to maintain this registration statement but has no obligation to the Participant to do so. If the registration statement ceases to be effective, the Participant will not be able to transfer or sell shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Award, unless exemptions from registration under applicable securities laws are available. Such exemptions from registration are very limited and might be unavailable. Participant agrees that any resale of the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Award shall comply in all respects with the requirements of all applicable securities laws, rules and regulations (including, without limitation, the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the respective rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) and any other law, rule or regulation applicable thereto, as such laws, rules, and regulations may be amended from time to time. The Company shall not be obligated to either issue shares of Common Stock or permit the resale of any such shares if such issuance or resale would violate any such requirements.

The Participant acknowledges that the vesting and earning of the RSUs will give rise to a withholding tax liability and that no shares of Common Stock are issuable hereunder until such withholding obligation is satisfied in full.
