SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND RELEASE
This Separation Agreement and Release (“Agreement”) is entered into by and between Todd Edlund (“Executive”), a resident of Minnesota, and Entegris, Inc., a Delaware corporation, with corporate headquarters located at 129 Concord Road, Billerica, Massachusetts 01821 (“Entegris”). It shall take effect after the rescission period described in Paragraph 6 has expired. The purpose of this Separation Agreement and Release is to set forth the compensation and benefits being offered to the Executive in connection with his retirement from employment with Entegris.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
In consideration of the recitals stated above and the mutual promises made below, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
1.Separation Date -- The last day of Executive’s employment with Entegris shall be September 1, 2022 (the “Separation Date”) as a result of Executive’s retirement. Executive shall continue to receive his base salary, continue to be eligible to participate in Entegris’ employee benefits, and continue to vest in any outstanding equity awards relating to shares of Entegris common stock through the Separation Date.
2.Separation Payments and Benefits -- Subject to and contingent upon Executive’s continued employment through September 1, 2022 and Executive’s execution of and compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and further provided that Executive does not revoke this Agreement as provided in Paragraph 6 below, Entegris shall provide Executive with the following benefits: (i) all outstanding, unvested restricted stock units relating to shares of Entegris common stock that are outstanding and held by Executive as of the Separation Date shall vest in full effective as of the Effective Date; (ii) all stock option award agreements relating to shares of Entegris common stock where such stock options or a portion thereof are held by Executive and are outstanding as of the Separation Date shall, effective as of the Effective Date, be amended in accordance with Exhibit A hereto (the “Omnibus Option Agreement Amendment”); and (iii) all performance-based restricted stock unit award agreements relating to shares of Entegris common stock where such performance-based restricted stock units or a portion thereof are held by Executive and are outstanding and unvested as of the Separation Date shall, effective as of the Effective Date, be amended in accordance with Exhibit B hereto (the “Omnibus PRSU Agreement Amendment”); provided, that such amendments shall apply only after giving effect to the proration provisions of sections 1.3 and 1.7 of the 2022 Stock Option Award Agreement and 2022 Performance-Based RSU Award Agreement, respectively, in each case, by and between the Company and Executive. For the avoidance of doubt, each such Entegris equity award shall remain outstanding for the period between the Separation Date and the Effective Date and, Executive revokes this Agreement as provided in Paragraph 6 below, then each such award shall be forfeited in accordance with its terms

In addition, notwithstanding Entegris’ requirement that an employee must remain employed with Entegris on January 1, 2023, in order to be eligible to receive a discretionary award under the Entegris Incentive Plan for the 2022 fiscal year, Entegris will pay EMPLOYEE a pro-rata bonus for fiscal year 2022, less applicable taxes and withholdings. Such amount will be determined in Entegris’ discretion based on Entegris’ financial performance for 2022 pursuant to the Entegris Incentive Plan and will be pro-rated based on the number of days during fiscal year 2022 during which EMPLOYEE remained employed with Entegris. This pro-rata bonus will



be paid at the same time that Entegris pays such bonuses to current Entegris employees, which Entegris anticipates will be in February 2023.

1.Accrued Payments -- Whether or not Executive signs this Agreement and it becomes effective in accordance with its terms, Executive will receive or be provided with the following: (a) Executive’s base salary through the Separation Date to the extent not previously paid prior to the Separation Date, which will be paid to Executive on the first regularly scheduled payment date following the Separation Date; (b) those unvested restricted stock units relating to shares of Entegris common stock that were granted in 2022 and vest on a prorated basis in accordance with their terms as of September 1, 2022 and without regard to Section 2(i) above, which such awards will be settled in accordance with their terms; (c) exercisability of those unvested restricted stock options to acquire shares of Entegris common stock that were granted in 2022 and vest on a prorated basis in accordance with their terms as of September 1, 2022 and without regard to Section 2(ii) above; (d) those unvested performance-based restricted stock units relating to shares of Entegris common stock that were granted in 2022 and remain outstanding on a prorated basis in accordance with their terms as of September 1, 2022 and without regard to Section 2(ii) above and will vest or be forfeited in accordance with their terms at the end of the performance period; (e) reimbursement for any unreimbursed business expenses properly incurred by Executive in accordance with Entegris policy prior to the Separation Date and properly submitted for reimbursement within sixty (60) days following the Separation Date, which will be paid to Executive within thirty (30) days following such proper submission for reimbursement; and (f) such reimbursements and benefits under Entegris’ benefit plans, if any, to which Executive became entitled prior to the Separation Date, as determined in accordance with Entegris’ benefit plans and policies.

If Executive rescinds Executive’s consent within the relevant time period, this Agreement shall be of no force or effect and Executive shall have no right to the payments and benefits set forth in Paragraph 2. If Executive does not rescind this Agreement, then, at the expiration of such fifteen (15) day period, this Agreement will take effect as a legally-binding agreement between Executive and Entegris on the basis set forth above (such date, the “Effective Date”).
3.Non-Admission -- Nothing in this Agreement, nor the furnishing of consideration for this Agreement, is intended to be nor will it be used as an admission of liability by either party that there has been any violation of state or federal law, employment practice or any other matter.
4.Confidentiality -- Executive acknowledges that the disclosure of any Confidential Information could cause irreparable harm to Entegris and its affiliates. Without limiting Paragraph 10 below, Executive agrees to maintain, at all times, the confidentiality of such Confidential Information and to not, directly or indirectly, use for Executive’s own purpose or benefit, or for the benefit of any other person or entity, the Confidential Information or otherwise disclose, furnish or publish any Confidential Information. For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means all information of Entegris or its affiliates, whether written or oral, tangible or intangible, of a private, secret, proprietary or confidential nature, including, without limitation, all non-public data, information, matters and materials of or concerning Entegris and its affiliates, their businesses, operations, finances, employees, and technology, including, without limitation, any data, compositions, customer lists, equipment, formulae, know-how, method of manufacture, materials, process, records, specifications, supplier names, test methodologies, technology, pricing information, business plans and strategies, marketing information, the terms or structures of Entegris’ or its affiliates’ contracts and agreements with customers and suppliers, trade secrets, and all other information which is not generally known to the public.
5.Non-Disparagement -- Without limiting Paragraph 10 below, Executive agrees that Executive will not, in public or private, make any false, disparaging, derogatory or defamatory statements, whether online (including, without limitation, on any social media, networking, or employer review site) or otherwise, to any person or entity, including, but not limited to, any media outlet, industry group, financial institution or current or former employee, board member, consultant, client or customer of Entegris or its affiliates, regarding Entegris or any of the other Released Parties, or regarding the Entegris’ business affairs, business prospects, or financial condition.
6.Permitted Disclosures -- Regardless of whether or not this Agreement becomes binding, nothing in this Agreement or in any other agreement Executive may have with Entegris or any of its affiliates prohibits Executive from communicating with any federal, state or local governmental agencies about possible violations of federal, state, or local laws or otherwise providing information to government agencies or participating in or cooperating with any governmental agency investigations, inquiries or proceedings. Executive is not required to notify Entegris of any such communications; provided, however, that nothing herein authorizes the disclosure of information Executive obtained through any communication that was subject to the attorney-client privilege. Further, notwithstanding Executive’s confidentiality and nondisclosure obligations, Executive is hereby advised as follows pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act: “An individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (A) is made (i) in confidence to a



Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. An individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual (A) files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and (B) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.”
7.Return of Entegris Documents and Other Property -- In signing this Agreement, Executive represents and warrants that, as of the Separation Date, Executive has returned to Entegris any and all documents, materials and information (whether in hardcopy, on electronic media or otherwise) related to business of Entegris or any of its affiliates and all keys, access cards, credit cards, laptops, computer hardware and software, storage devices (flash drives, thumb drives, etc.), tablets, smartphones, telephones and telephone-related equipment and all other property of Entegris and its affiliates in his/her possession or control. Further, Executive represents and warrants that Executive has not retained any copy of any documents, materials or information of Entegris or any of its affiliates (whether in hardcopy, on electronic media or otherwise). Recognizing that his employment with Entegris has ended, Executive agrees that Executive will not, for any purpose, attempt to access or use any Entegris computer or computer network or system. Further, Executive acknowledges that he has disclosed to Entegris all passwords necessary or desirable to enable Entegris to access all information which Executive has password-protected on any of its computer equipment or on its computer network or system.
8.Non-Compete and Non-Solicit -- Executive acknowledges that during the course of employment with Entegris, Executive had access to Confidential Information, which, if disclosed, would assist in competition against Entegris and its affiliates, and, in further consideration of the payments and benefits provided to Executive in Paragraph 2, agrees to the following restrictions to protect the goodwill, Confidential Information and other legitimate interests of Entegris and its affiliates:
a.Executive agrees that, while any performance restricted stock units or stock options previously granted to Executive remain unvested and for the one (1) year period following February 2, 2025 (the last date on which any then-unvested performance restricted stock units and stock options will vest) (the “Restricted Period”), Executive will not, directly or indirectly, either as principal, agent, employee, consultant, officer, director, stockholder, lender or in any other capacity, undertake planning or preparation for, engage in, or have a financial interest in, any business which is or would be competitive, directly or indirectly, with the current business or planned business of Entegris or any of its affiliates; provided, however, that [nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude Executive from rendering advice or providing services to, whether as a principal, agent, employee, consultant, officer, director, stockholder, lender or in any other capacity, an entity engaged or planning to engage in any business which is or would be competitive, directly or indirectly, with the current business or planned business of Entegris or any of its affiliates so long as such relationship is restricted solely to one or more distinct portions of the operations and businesses of such entity and such distinct portions do not engage in and/or are not planning to engage in any business which is or would be competitive, directly



or indirectly, with the current business or planned business of Entegris or any of its affiliates, and Executive does not have any discussions with, or participate in, the governance, strategy, development, management or operations of any business segments that engaged in and/or planning to engage in any business which is or would be competitive, directly or indirectly, with the current business or planned business of Entegris or any of its affiliates; provided, further, that nothing contained in this Agreement shall preclude Executive from purchasing or owning less than one percent (1%) of the stock or other securities of any company with securities traded on a nationally recognized securities exchange.
b.Executive agrees that, during the Restricted Period, Executive will not, directly or indirectly, either as principal, agent, employee, consultant, officer, director, stockholder, lender or in any other capacity (i) contact, solicit or otherwise engage in any discussion with any employee, consultant, independent contractor, or agent of Entegris or its affiliates with the intention or effect of encouraging or inducing such party to terminate his or her employment, engagement, agency or other relationship, as applicable, with Entegris or any of its affiliates, or otherwise hire, engage or employ any such employee, consultant, independent contractor or agent of Entegris or its affiliates; or (ii) contact, solicit or otherwise engage in any discussion with any client, customer, account, supplier, licensor or licensee of Entegris or its affiliates, with the intention or effect of encouraging such party to terminate or reduce the volume of its business with Entegris or any of its affiliates or to place elsewhere any portion of its business that could be served by Entegris or any of its affiliates.
c.As used in this Paragraph 12, the term "client," "customer," or "account" shall include: (i) any person or entity that is a client, customer or account (has an established business arrangement with Entegris or its affiliates) of Entegris or its affiliates as of the date of this Agreement with whom or which Executive had material contact; [(ii) any person or entity with whom or which Executive had material contact that was a client, customer or account of Entegris or its affiliates at any time during the one-year period preceding the Separation Date; and (iii) any prospective client, customer or account to whom or which Entegris or any of its affiliates has made a pitch, presentation (or similar offering of services) and with whom or which Executive had material contact within a period of 180 days preceding the Separation Date.
d.The non-compete and non-solicit covenants set forth in this Paragraph 12 are limited to those geographies where Executive had a material presence or influence during the last twenty four (24) months of employment with Entegris and its affiliates. However, because Entegris and its affiliates offer products for sale on a nationwide and international basis, Executive recognizes that the business of Entegris and its affiliates is not restricted by geography. Accordingly, Executive agrees that it is fair and reasonable that the non-compete and non-solicit covenants set forth in this Paragraph 12 apply nationally or internationally, to the extent Executive had a material presence or influence nationally or internationally during the last twenty four (24) months of employment.
9.Breach -- In the event of a breach of any lawful provision of the Agreement by Executive, Entegris will be entitled to cease making any payments or providing any benefits described in Paragraph 2 and to terminate any unvested performance restricted stock units and stock options, in addition to any and all other rights or remedies Entegris may



have at law or in equity (including, with respect to a breach of Paragraphs 8, 9 or 12, injunctive relief); provided, however, that for purposes of this Paragraph 13, Executive’s challenge to the validity of an ADEA waiver shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement.
10.Governing Law and Venue -- This Agreement will be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Minnesota and may be pleaded as a full and complete defense to any action, suit, or proceeding relating to Executive’s employment with Entegris. For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises out of this Agreement, such disputes shall be brought in Ramsey County or Hennepin County, Minnesota.
11.Other Provisions -- A waiver of any breach of or failure to comply fully with any provision of this Agreement by either party shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach thereof or failure to comply. If any portion or provision of this Agreement shall to any extent be deemed invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby and each portion and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. To avoid any possible misunderstanding, Entegris intends this Agreement to be a comprehensive statement of the terms of Executive’s retirement. This Agreement supersedes any prior understanding or statement made to Executive by Entegris regarding arrangements with Entegris for the period after Executive’s separation. Any modifications of the terms set forth in this Agreement must be in writing and signed by Executive and an authorized officer of Entegris.
12.Resignation; Entegris Affiliation -- Executive hereby resigns from all positions and offices held by Executive with Entegris and its affiliates effective as of the Separation Date and agrees to execute all such other documents and form in connection with Executive’s resignation as may be requested by Entegris. Executive agrees that, following the Separation Date, Executive will not hold himself/herself out as an officer, employee, or otherwise as a representative of Entegris.
13.Cooperation -- Executive agrees that, to the extent permitted by law, Executive shall cooperate fully with Entegris in the investigation, defense or prosecution of any claims or actions which already have been brought, are currently pending, or which may be brought in the future against Entegris by a third party or by or on behalf of Entegris against any third party, whether before a state or federal court, any state or federal government agency, or a mediator or arbitrator. Executive’s full cooperation in connection with such claims or actions shall include, but not be limited to, being available to meet with Entegris’ counsel, at reasonable times and locations designated by Entegris, to investigate or prepare Entegris’ claims or defenses, to prepare for trial or discovery or an administrative hearing, mediation, arbitration or other proceeding and to act as a witness when requested by Entegris. Executive further agrees that, to the extent permitted by law, Executive will notify Entegris promptly in the event that Executive is served with a subpoena (other than a subpoena issued by a government agency), or in the event that Executive is asked to provide a third party (other than a government agency) with information concerning any actual or potential complaint or claim against Entegris.
14.Voluntary Assent -- This Agreement, including the release of claims set forth above, creates legally binding obligations and Entegris advises Executive to consult an attorney before signing this Agreement. In signing this Agreement, Executive gives Entegris assurance that Executive has signed it voluntarily and with a full understanding of its terms; that Executive has had sufficient opportunity, before signing this



Agreement, to consider its terms and has been advised to consult with an attorney, if Executive wished to do so, and that, in signing this Agreement, Executive has not relied on any promises or representations, express or implied, that are not set forth expressly in this Agreement.
15.Tax Acknowledgment -- In connection with the benefits provided to Executive pursuant to this Agreement, Entegris shall withhold and remit to the tax authorities the amounts required or permitted under applicable law, and Executive shall be responsible for all applicable taxes with respect to such benefits under applicable law. Executive acknowledges that he is not relying upon the advice or representation of Entegris with respect to the tax treatment of any of the benefits set forth in this Agreement.
16.Expiration -- This Agreement must be signed and returned to Entegris no later than September 22, 2022, but no earlier than the Separation Date. If Executive does not sign and return the Agreement by such date, the Agreement shall expire and be null and void.
