On behalf of XPO, Inc., I’m happy to offer you the position of Chief Operating Officer. I know I speak for the rest of our team when I say how pleased we are to make you this offer.

•Base Salary: You’ll receive $14,423.08, paid on a weekly basis, or $750,000 annually, less all applicable withholdings and deductions, and pro-rated for any partial period worked.

•Profit-Sharing Cash Incentive Program: You will be eligible to participate in a profit-sharing cash incentive program, with a participation factor of 0.56% of the Company’s LTL adjusted operating income. Your incentive will be paid quarterly in cash, less all applicable withholdings and deductions, as soon as practicable after the Company’s quarterly earnings are publicly announced. The first incentive payment for which you will be eligible will be based upon the Company’s Q2 2023 LTL adjusted operating income, prorated for your start date of employment. You must be employed through the date on which the Company’s quarterly earnings are publicly announced in order to receive an incentive payment for such quarter. Incentive payments will be subject to the terms and conditions of the profit-sharing cash incentive program approved by the Compensation Committee.

•Long-term Incentive: You will be eligible for an annual long-term incentive award with a target grant date value of $1,500,000, with the form, structure, timing, vesting conditions and schedule determined annually by the Compensation Committee. The underlying number of stock units will be determined based on XPO’s closing stock price on date of grant (subject to variation from time-to-time), in the form as follows:

oTime-Based Restricted Stock Units (RSUs): $525,000 of grant date value will be awarded to you in the form of RSUs, with vesting to occur on March 15th over a three-year schedule, or as otherwise determined annually by the Compensation Committee subject to your continuing employment with the Company through each applicable vest date.

oPerformance-Based Restricted Stock Units (PRSUs): $975,000 of target grant date value will be awarded to you in the form of PRSUs, which will cliff vest on March 6th, 2026, or as otherwise determined annually by the Compensation Committee subject to achievement of the applicable performance goals and continued service through each applicable vest date.

•Profit-sharing cash incentives and long-term incentive awards will be reflective of your individual performance and contributions, Company and/or business unit performance, as applicable, and the scope and expectations of your position/role in the Company. As an at-will employee, profit-sharing cash incentives and long-term incentives are subject to change at the sole discretion of the Company.

•Cash Sign-On: You’ll receive a $1,500,000 sign-on bonus, which is taxable income. If you voluntarily leave the Company before 24 months of continuous employment, you’re required to repay 100% of the bonus. The sign on bonus will be paid in accordance with the Company’s payroll procedures and no later than May 26, 2023.

•Payment of Forfeited Bonus: In connection with your separation of employment from your current employer, if your current employer does not pay you any portion of the bonus that you earned in March 2023 that is payable to you April 28 (the “March bonus”), the Company will provide you with a cash payment equivalent to the value of the forfeited bonus, less applicable taxes and withholding, up to $225,000. Payment of the forfeited bonus is contingent upon you providing the Company, within ten (10) business days following your start date, satisfactory proof that you (a) forfeited the payout of some or all of the March bonus and (b) the amount of March bonus you forfeited. If eligible, payment of the forfeited bonus will be made in the payroll cycle following 30 days of your continuous employment.

The underlying number of stock units will be determined based on XPO’s closing stock price on date of grant (subject to variation from time-to-time), in the form as follows:

oRSUs: $2,650,000 of grant value will be awarded to you in the form of RSUs and will vest at 50% on the first anniversary of the grant date and 50% on the second anniversary, subject to your continuing employment with the Company through the vest date.

oPRSUs: $4,500,000 of grant value will be awarded to you in the form of PRSUs and will vest on a 5-year cliff schedule, subject to achievement of the applicable performance goals (as detailed in the respective award agreement) and continued employment with the Company through the vest date.
