7. Income Taxes

The following table presents the provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

	For the three months ended
	March 31, 2023		March 31, 2022
Provision for income taxes	$	23,726	$	7,588

The provision for income taxes consists of (1) current tax expense, which relates primarily to our profitable operations in tax jurisdictions with limited or no net operating loss carryforwards and withholding taxes related to management fees, royalties, and the repatriation of foreign earnings; and (2) deferred tax expense (or benefit), which represents adjustments in book-to-tax basis differences primarily related to (a) book versus tax basis in intangible assets, (b) changes in net operating loss

9

carryforwards, and (c) changes in withholding taxes on unremitted earnings. Other items impacting deferred tax expense include changes in tax rates and changes in our assessment of the realizability of our deferred tax assets.

We recorded a partial valuation allowance against certain interest carryforwards in the U.S. at both December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. We are continually evaluating both the positive and negative evidence for this partial valuation allowance. We believe that there is a reasonable possibility that within the next 12 months, sufficient positive evidence may become available to allow us to reach a conclusion that a significant portion of the valuation allowance will no longer be needed. Release of the valuation allowance would result in the recognition of this deferred tax asset and a decrease to income tax expense for the period the release is recorded. However, the exact timing and amount of the valuation allowance release are subject to change on the basis of the level of profitability and future utilization of this attribute that we are able to actually achieve.

8. Net Income per Share

Basic and diluted net income per share are calculated by dividing net income by the number of basic and diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding during the period. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 the weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding used to calculate basic and diluted net income per share were as follows:

	For the three months ended
	March 31, 2023	March 31, 2022
Basic weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding	152,518	157,422
Dilutive effect of stock options	151	473
Dilutive effect of unvested restricted securities	655	735
Diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding	153,324	158,630

Certain potential ordinary shares were excluded from our calculation of diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding because either they would have had an anti-dilutive effect on net income per share or they related to equity awards that were contingently issuable for which the contingency had not been satisfied. These potential ordinary shares were as follows:

	For the three months ended
	March 31, 2023	March 31, 2022
Anti-dilutive shares excluded	381	4
Contingently issuable shares excluded	1,268	1,002

9. Inventories

The following table presents the components of inventories as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

	March 31, 2023		December 31, 2022
Finished goods	$	217,181	$	202,531
Work-in-process	115,608		117,691

Our debt consists of secured credit facilities and various tranches of senior unsecured notes. Refer to Note 14: Debt of our 2022 Annual Report for additional information related to our existing indebtedness.

As of March 31, 2023, we had $746.1 million available under our $750.0 million revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility"), net of $3.9 million of obligations in respect of outstanding letters of credit issued thereunder. Outstanding letters of credit are issued primarily for the benefit of certain operating activities. As of March 31, 2023, no amounts had been drawn against these outstanding letters of credit.

Accrued Interest

Accrued interest associated with our outstanding debt is included as a component of accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, accrued interest totaled $54.4 million and $50.1 million, respectively.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

We are regularly involved in a number of claims and litigation matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters, based upon our experience and current information known to us, we do not expect the outcome of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, and/or cash flows.

12. Shareholders' Equity

Cash Dividends

On February 22, 2023, we paid a cash dividend of $0.11 per share, or $16.8 million in aggregate, to shareholders of record as of February 8, 2023. On April 13, 2023, we announced that our Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share, payable on May 24, 2023 to shareholders of record as of May 10, 2023.

11

Treasury Shares

From time to time, our Board of Directors has authorized various share repurchase programs, which may be modified or terminated by the Board at any time. On January 20, 2022, we announced that our Board of Directors had authorized a new $500.0 million ordinary share repurchase program (the “January 2022 Program”), which replaced the previous $500.0 million program approved in July 2019. We did not repurchase any ordinary shares under this program in the three months ended March 31, 2023. In the three months ended March 31, 2022, we repurchased 1.1 million ordinary shares under the January 2022 Program. As of March 31, 2023, $224.5 million remained available for repurchase under the January 2022 Program.

14. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Hedges of Foreign Currency Risk

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, amounts excluded from the assessment of effectiveness of our foreign currency forward contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges were not material. As of March 31, 2023, we estimated that $21.8 million of net gains will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to earnings during the twelve-month period ending March 31, 2024.

As of March 31, 2023, we had the following outstanding foreign currency forward contracts:

Credit Risk Related Contingent Features

We have agreements with our derivative counterparties that contain a provision whereby if we default on our indebtedness and repayment of the indebtedness has been accelerated by the lender, then we could also be declared in default on our derivative obligations.

As of March 31, 2023, the termination value of outstanding derivatives in a liability position, excluding any adjustment for non-performance risk, was $13.3 million. As of March 31, 2023, we had not posted any cash collateral related to these agreements. If we breach any of the default provisions on any of our indebtedness as described above, we could be required to settle our obligations under the derivative agreements at their termination values.

15. Acquisitions and Divestitures

Acquisitions

Elastic M2M

On February 11, 2022, we acquired all of the equity interests of Elastic M2M Inc. ("Elastic M2M") for an aggregate cash purchase price of $51.6 million, subject to certain post-closing items. In addition to the aggregate cash purchase price, the previous shareholders of Elastic M2M are entitled to up to $30.0 million of additional acquisition-related incentive

15

compensation, which was pending the completion of certain technical milestones in fiscal year 2022 and achievement of financial targets in fiscal years 2022 and 2023. All technical milestones were completed in fiscal year 2022. As of December 31, 2022, we had recognized $24.7 million of this acquisition-related incentive compensation. In three months ended March 31, 2023, we recognized an additional $3.3 million of this acquisition-related incentive compensation. This incentive compensation is recorded in restructuring and other charges, net.

Elastic M2M was a privately-held innovator of connected intelligence for operational assets across heavy-duty transport, warehouse, supply chain and logistics, industrial, light-duty passenger car, and a variety of other industry segments. Elastic M2M primarily serves telematics service providers and resellers, enabling them to leverage Elastic M2M’s cloud platform and analytics capabilities to deliver sensor-based operational insights to their end users. This acquisition augments our cloud capabilities critical to delivering actionable sensor-based insights, an increasingly important capability in this fast-growing industry segment. We are integrating Elastic M2M into the Performance Sensing reportable segment.

The allocation of the purchase price related to this acquisition was finalized in the three months ended March 31, 2023. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price to the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed:

Net working capital, excluding cash	$	35
Goodwill	28,211
Other intangible assets	27,700
Deferred income tax liabilities	(5,925)
Fair value of net assets acquired, excluding cash and cash equivalents	50,021
Cash and cash equivalents	1,597
Fair value of net assets acquired	$	51,618

The goodwill recognized as a result of this acquisition represents future economic benefits expected to arise from synergies from combining operations and the extension of existing customer relationships. The goodwill recognized in this acquisition will not be deductible for tax purposes.

In connection with the allocation of purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we identified certain definite-lived intangible assets. The following table presents the acquired intangible assets, their estimated fair values, and weighted-average lives:

	Acquisition Date Fair Value		Weighted-Average Lives (years)
Acquired definite-lived intangible assets
Customer relationships	$	17,500	13
Completed technologies	10,200		10
Total definite-lived intangible assets acquired	$	27,700	12

The definite-lived intangible assets were valued using the income approach. We primarily used the relief-from-royalty method to value completed technologies, and we used the multi-period excess earnings method to value customer relationships. These valuation methods incorporate assumptions including expected discounted future net cash flows resulting from either the future estimated after-tax royalty payments avoided as a result of owning the completed technologies or the future earnings related to existing customer relationships.

Dynapower

On July 12, 2022, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding equity interests of DP Acquisition Corp ("Dynapower"), a leader in power conversion systems including inverters, converters, and rectifiers for renewable energy generation, green hydrogen production, electric vehicle charging stations, and microgrid applications, as well as industrial and defense applications, for an aggregate cash purchase price of $577.5 million, subject to certain post-closing items. Dynapower also provides aftermarket sales and service to maintain its equipment in the field.

Dynapower is a foundational addition to our Clean Energy Solutions strategy and complements our recent acquisitions of GIGAVAC, Lithium Balance, and Spear. We are integrating Dynapower into our Sensing Solutions reportable segment.

16

The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed:

Net working capital, excluding cash	$	13,487
Property, plant and equipment	1,846
Goodwill	418,257
Other intangible assets	164,400
Other assets	1,656
Deferred income tax liabilities	(25,548)
Other long-term liabilities	(1,035)
Fair value of net assets acquired, excluding cash and cash equivalents	573,063
Cash and cash equivalents	4,410
Fair value of net assets acquired	$	577,473

The allocation of purchase price of Dynapower is preliminary and is based on management’s judgments after evaluating several factors, including preliminary valuation assessments of intangible assets. The final allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired will be completed when the final valuations are completed. The preliminary goodwill recognized as a result of this acquisition represents future economic benefits expected to arise from synergies from combining operations and the extension of existing customer relationships. The goodwill recognized in this acquisition will not be deductible for tax purposes.

In connection with the preliminary allocation of purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we identified certain definite-lived intangible assets. The following table presents the acquired intangible assets, their estimated fair values, and weighted-average lives:

	Acquisition Date Fair Value		Weighted-Average Lives (years)
Acquired definite-lived intangible assets
Customer relationships	$	37,000	13
Backlog	7,100		2
Completed technologies	86,100		12
Tradenames	34,200		18
Total definite-lived intangible assets acquired	$	164,400	13

The definite-lived intangible assets were valued using the income approach. We primarily used the relief-from-royalty method to value completed technologies and tradenames, and we used the multi-period excess earnings method to value customer relationships. These valuation methods incorporate assumptions including expected discounted future net cash flows resulting from either the future estimated after-tax royalty payments avoided as a result of owning the completed technologies or the future earnings related to existing customer relationships.

Divestiture - Qinex Business

On May 27, 2022, we executed an asset purchase agreement (the "APA") whereby we agreed to sell various assets and liabilities comprising our semiconductor test and thermal business (collectively, the "Qinex Business") to LTI Holdings, Inc. ("LTI") in exchange for consideration of approximately $219.0 million, subject to working capital and other adjustments. Concurrent with the execution of the APA, the parties entered into a Contract Manufacturing Agreement ("CMA") and a Transition Services Agreement ("TSA"), each for nominal consideration.

The CMA commenced at closing of the transaction ("Closing") and had a term of either six or nine months, depending on the manufacturing site. LTI also had the option of extending each contract for an additional three months. The period from Closing to the end of the CMA term (including extensions, if any) is referred to as the "Transition Period." The terms of the CMA required that we provide manufacturing and distribution services for the Transition Period. The TSA commenced at Closing and had a term that varied depending on the nature of the support services, ranging from one month to the entirety of the Transition Period. The terms of the TSA required that we provide various forms of commercial, operational, and back-office support to LTI. As of March 31, 2023, the Transition Period has ended.

Closing occurred in July 2022, at which time assets of approximately $70 million (including allocated goodwill of $45 million) and liabilities of approximately $2 million transferred to LTI. Transferred assets and liabilities excluded inventories and accounts payable, which transferred to LTI at the end of the Transition Period. We received cash consideration of

17

$198.8 million at Closing and recognized a pre-tax gain of $135.1 million. Cash consideration received at Closing excluded amounts held in escrow until various milestones were met through the Transition Period.

The Qinex Business manufactures semiconductor burn-in test sockets and thermal control solutions and was formed through the combination of Sensata’s semiconductor interconnect business with Wells-CTI in 2012. The Qinex Business was included in our Sensing Solutions segment (and Industrial Solutions reporting unit). We allocated goodwill to the Qinex Business based on its fair value relative to the total fair value of the Industrial Solutions reporting unit.

16. Segment Reporting

We present financial information for two reportable segments, Performance Sensing and Sensing Solutions. The Performance Sensing reportable segment consists of two operating segments, Automotive and HVOR, which meet the criteria for aggregation in FASB ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting. The Sensing Solutions reportable segment is also an operating segment.

Our operating segments are businesses that we manage as components of an enterprise, for which separate financial information is evaluated regularly by our chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

An operating segment’s performance is primarily evaluated based on segment operating income, which excludes amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and other charges, net, certain costs associated with our strategic megatrend initiatives, and certain corporate costs or credits not associated with the operations of the segment, including share-based compensation expense and a portion of depreciation expense associated with assets recognized in connection with acquisitions. Corporate and other costs excluded from an operating (and reportable) segment’s performance are separately stated below and also include costs that are related to functional areas such as finance, information technology, legal, and human resources. We believe that segment operating income, as defined above, is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of our segments. However, this measure should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, operating income or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The accounting policies of each of our operating and reportable segments are materially consistent with those described in Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies of the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2022 Annual Report.

The following table presents net revenue and segment operating income for our reportable segments and other operating results not allocated to our reportable segments for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

	For the three months ended
	March 31, 2023		March 31, 2022
Net revenue:
Performance Sensing	$	751,525	$	717,697
Sensing Solutions	246,650		258,073
Total net revenue	$	998,175	$	975,770
Segment operating income (as defined above):
Performance Sensing	$	188,377	$	180,638

A wide variety of potential risks, uncertainties, and other factors could materially affect our ability to achieve the results either expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, risks related to public health crises, instability and changes in the global markets, supplier interruption or non-performance, the acquisition or disposition of businesses, adverse conditions or competition in the industries upon which we are dependent, intellectual property, product liability, warranty and recall claims, market acceptance of new product introductions and product innovations, labor disruptions or increased labor costs, and changes in existing environmental or safety laws, regulations, and programs.

Investors and others should carefully consider the foregoing factors and other uncertainties, risks, and potential events including, but not limited to, those described in Item 1A: Risk Factors included in our 2022 Annual Report and as may be updated from time to time in Item 1A: Risk Factors included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or other subsequent filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. All such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update these statements other than as required by law.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations supplements, and should be read in conjunction with, the discussion in Item 7: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our 2022 Annual Report. The following discussion should also be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Amounts and percentages in the following discussions have been calculated based on unrounded numbers. Accordingly, certain amounts may not appear to recalculate due to the effect of rounding.

Overview

Net revenue increased 2.3% in the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the prior year period. Net revenue increased 4.7% on an organic basis, which excludes a decrease of 2.3% attributed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and a decrease of 0.1% due to the net effect of acquisitions and divestitures. This reflects organic revenue growth of 7.0% in Performance Sensing and organic revenue decline of 1.5% in Sensing Solutions. Organic revenue growth (or decline), discussed throughout this Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (this "MD&A"), is a financial measure not presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Refer to Non-GAAP Financial Measures included elsewhere in this MD&A for additional information related to our use of organic revenue growth (or decline).

Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2023, increased $22.9 million, or 18.2%, to $148.8 million (14.9% of net revenue) compared to $125.9 million (12.9% of net revenue) in the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to (1) lower selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense, primarily related to reduced compensation in the first quarter of 2023 as a result of restructuring actions taken in fiscal year 2022, (2) margin improvements driven by organic revenue growth partially offset by the unfavorable effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and (3) lower restructuring and other charges, net. These increases were partially offset by an increase in amortization expense as a result of intangibles recently acquired. Refer to Results of Operations included elsewhere in this MD&A for additional discussion of our earnings results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the prior year period.

We have sufficient cash to operate the business effectively. We generated $96.9 million of operating cash flow in the three months ended March 31, 2023, ending the quarter with $1.0 billion in cash and cash equivalents. In the three months ended March 31, 2023, we used approximately $16.8 million for payment of cash dividends and we have announced an increase in cash dividends for the second quarter to $0.12 per share. In the first quarter of 2023, we prepaid $250.0 million of principal on the balance outstanding of the Term Loan and we intend to pay down the remaining principal balance on the Term Loan in the second quarter of 2023. In fiscal year 2023, we will continue to return capital to shareholders through our dividend and

19

opportunistic share repurchases. We expect improving free cash flow will naturally allow leverage to decline and returns on invested capital to improve over time.

Results of Operations

The table below presents our historical results of operations, in millions of dollars and as a percentage of net revenue, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. We have derived the results of operations from the condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Amounts and percentages in the table below have been calculated based on unrounded numbers. Accordingly, certain amounts may not appear to recalculate due to the effect of rounding.

Net Revenue

Net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased 2.3% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. Net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased 4.7% on an organic basis, which excludes a decrease of 2.3% attributed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and a decrease of 0.1% due to the net effect of acquisitions and divestitures. This represents market outgrowth of 20 basis points. We use the term "market outgrowth" to describe the impact of an increasing quantity and value of our products used in customer systems and applications above external market growth. It is only loosely correlated to normal unit demand fluctuations in the markets we serve.

Performance Sensing

Performance Sensing net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased 4.7% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. Excluding a decrease of 2.7% attributed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and an increase of 0.4% due to the effect of acquisitions, Performance Sensing net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased 7.0% on an organic basis. Both automotive and HVOR contributed to these results as discussed below.

Automotive net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 grew 2.9% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. Excluding a decline of 3.1% attributed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, Automotive net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 grew 6.0% on an organic basis, primarily due to improved market performance. HVOR net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 grew 9.0% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. Excluding a decline of 1.7% attributed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and an increase of 1.3% due to the effect of acquisitions, HVOR net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 grew 9.4% on an organic basis, primarily due to market outgrowth.

Sensing Solutions

Sensing Solutions net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 decreased 4.4% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. Excluding a decline of 1.5% attributed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and a decline of 1.4% due to the net effect of acquisitions and divestitures, Sensing Solutions net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 declined 1.5% on an organic basis, which primarily reflects market declines in our industrial business, partially offset by improvements in the aerospace markets.

___________________________________

*     Represents the amount presented divided by total net revenue.

Cost of revenue

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, cost of revenue as a percentage of net revenue decreased slightly from the three months ended March 31, 2022, as the net impacts of (1) pricing recoveries from customers, (2) inflation on material and logistics costs, and (3) volume leverage was largely offset by (1) product mix and (2) the unfavorable effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Research and development expense

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, research and development ("R&D") expense decreased slightly from the three months ended March 31, 2022, due to lower costs as a result of repositioning activities in fiscal year 2022 and the favorable effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Selling, general and administrative expense

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, SG&A expense decreased from the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily as a result of (1) reduced compensation in the first quarter of 2023, primarily the result of restructuring actions taken in fiscal year 2022, (2) the favorable effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and (3) lower costs related to mergers and acquisitions activity. Refer to Note 15: Acquisitions and Divestitures of our condensed consolidated financial statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for additional information related to acquired businesses.

Amortization of intangible assets

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, amortization expense increased from the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to increased intangibles from recent acquisitions. Refer to Note 15: Acquisitions and Divestitures of our condensed consolidated financial statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for additional information related to recent acquisitions.

Restructuring and other charges, net

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, restructuring and other charges, net decreased from the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily due to (1) a reduction in expense for acquisition-related compensation arrangements and (2) the gain on sale of a business in the first quarter of 2023, partially offset by (1) the impact of the non-recurrence of a gain recognized in the first quarter of 2022 related to the reduction of the liability for contingent consideration for Spear and (2) an increase in severance charges that were not the result of initiation of a larger restructuring plan. Refer to Note 5: Restructuring and Other Charges, Net of our condensed consolidated financial statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for additional information on the components of restructuring and other charges, net.

Operating income

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, operating income increased compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to (1) lower SG&A expense, primarily related to reduced compensation in the first quarter of 2023 as a result of restructuring actions taken in fiscal year 2022, (2) margin improvements driven by organic revenue growth partially offset by

21

the unfavorable effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and (3) lower restructuring and other charges, net. These increases were partially offset by an increase in amortization expense as a result of intangibles recently acquired.

Interest expense, net

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, interest expense, net decreased $5.4 million from the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily due to increased interest income as a result of increasing interest rates partially offset by (1) increased interest expense on the Term Loan (partially mitigated by the $250.0 million prepayment on the Term Loan in the first quarter of 2023) and (2) the net impact of the early redemption of the 4.875% Senior Notes and the issuance of the 5.875% Senior Notes in the third quarter of 2022.

Other, net

Other, net primarily includes currency remeasurement gains and losses on net monetary assets, gains and losses on foreign currency and commodity forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments, mark-to-market gains and losses on investments, losses related to debt refinancing, and the portion of our net periodic benefit cost excluding service cost. Refer to Note 6: Other, Net of our condensed consolidated financial statements, included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for more details related to the components of other, net.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, other, net represented a net gain of $1.4 million, a favorable impact on earnings of $51.8 million compared to a net loss of $50.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022. This impact was primarily due to the non-recurrence of mark-to-market losses on equity investments, primarily related to our investment in Quanergy Systems Inc., in the first quarter of 2022, partially offset by lower gains on commodity forward contracts.

Provision for income taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the provision for income taxes increased $16.1 million from the three months ended March 31, 2022, predominantly due to the increase in profit before tax as impacted by the jurisdictional mix of profits.

The provision for income taxes consists of (1) current tax expense, which relates primarily to our profitable operations in tax jurisdictions with limited or no net operating loss carryforwards and withholding taxes related to management fees, royalties, and the repatriation of foreign earnings; and (2) deferred tax expense (or benefit), which represents adjustments in book-to-tax basis differences primarily related to (a) book versus tax basis in intangible assets, (b) changes in net operating loss carryforwards, and (c) changes in withholding taxes on unremitted earnings. Other items impacting deferred tax expense include changes in tax rates and changes in our assessment of the realizability of our deferred tax assets.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This section provides additional information regarding certain non-GAAP financial measures, including organic revenue growth (or decline), adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share ("EPS"), free cash flow, net leverage ratio, and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA"), which are used by our management, Board of Directors, and investors. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally to make operating and strategic decisions, including the preparation of our annual operating plan, evaluation of our overall business performance, and as a factor in determining compensation for certain employees. 

The use of our non-GAAP financial measures has limitations. They should be considered as supplemental in nature and are not intended to be considered in isolation from, or as an alternative to, reported net revenue growth (or decline), operating income, operating margin, net income, diluted EPS, net cash provided by operating activities, or total debt, finance lease and other financing obligations, respectively, calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our measures of organic revenue growth (or decline), adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, free cash flow, net leverage ratio, and adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as, or comparable to, similar non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies.

Organic revenue growth (or decline)

Organic revenue growth (or decline) is defined as the reported percentage change in net revenue, calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding the period-over-period impact of foreign currency exchange rate differences as well as the net impact of material acquisitions and divestitures for the 12-month period following the respective transaction date(s).

We believe that organic revenue growth (or decline) provides investors with helpful information with respect to our operating performance, and we use organic revenue growth (or decline) to evaluate our ongoing operations as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that organic revenue growth (or decline) provides useful information in

22

evaluating the results of our business because it excludes items that we believe are not indicative of ongoing performance or that we believe impact comparability with the prior-year period.

Adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, and adjusted EPS

We define adjusted operating income as operating income, determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding certain non-GAAP adjustments which are described under the heading Non-GAAP adjustments below. Adjusted operating margin is calculated by dividing adjusted operating income by net revenue determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We define adjusted net income as follows: net income (or loss) determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding certain non-GAAP adjustments which are described under the heading Non-GAAP Adjustments below. Adjusted EPS is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by the number of diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding in the period.

Management uses adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, and adjusted EPS as measures of operating performance, for planning purposes (including the preparation of our annual operating budget), to allocate resources to enhance the financial performance of our business, to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies, in communications with our Board of Directors and investors concerning our financial performance, and as factors in determining compensation for certain employees. We believe investors and securities analysts also use these non-GAAP financial measures in their evaluation of our performance and the performance of other similar companies. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of liquidity.

Free cash flow

Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less additions to property, plant and equipment and capitalized software. We believe free cash flow is useful to management and investors as a measure of cash generated by business operations that will be used to repay scheduled debt maturities and can be used to, among other things, fund acquisitions, repurchase ordinary shares, and (or) accelerate the repayment of debt obligations.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (or loss), determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding interest expense, net, provision for (or benefit from) income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization of intangible assets, and the following non-GAAP adjustments, if applicable: (1) restructuring related and other, (2) financing and other transaction costs, and (3) deferred loss or gain on derivative instruments. Refer to Non-GAAP Adjustments below for additional discussion of these adjustments. We believe that this measure is useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends.

Net leverage ratio

Net leverage ratio represents net debt (total debt, finance lease and other financing obligations less cash and cash equivalents) divided by last twelve months ("LTM") adjusted EBITDA. We believe that the net leverage ratio is a useful measure to management and investors in understanding trends in our overall financial condition.

Non-GAAP adjustments

Many of our non-GAAP adjustments relate to a series of strategic initiatives developed by our management aimed at better positioning us for future revenue growth and an improved cost structure. These initiatives have been modified from time to time to reflect changes in overall market conditions and the competitive environment facing our business. These initiatives include, among other items, acquisitions, divestitures, restructurings of certain business, supply chain or corporate activities, and various financing transactions. We describe these adjustments in more detail below, each of which is net of current tax impacts, as applicable.

•Restructuring related and other: includes net charges related to certain restructuring and other exit activities as well as other costs (or income) that we believe are either unique or unusual to the identified reporting period, and that we believe impact comparisons to prior period operating results. Such costs include charges related to optimization of our manufacturing processes to increase productivity. This type of activity occurs periodically, however each action is unique, discrete, and driven by various facts and circumstances. Such amounts are excluded from internal financial statements and analyses that management uses in connection with financial planning and in its review and assessment of our operating and financial performance, including the performance of our segments.

•Financing and other transaction costs: includes losses or gains related to debt financing transactions, losses or gains related to the divestiture of a business, costs incurred, including for legal, accounting, and other professional services, that are directly related to an acquisition, divestiture, or equity financing transaction, mark-to-market losses or gains on

23

our equity investments, expenses related to compensation arrangements entered into concurrent with the closing of an acquisition, and gains related to changes in the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration amounts.

•Deferred loss or gain on derivative instruments: includes unrealized losses or gains on derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting as well as the impact of commodity prices on our raw material costs relative to the strike price on our commodity forward contracts.

•Step-up depreciation and amortization: includes depreciation and amortization expense associated with the step-up in fair value of assets acquired in connection with a business combination (e.g., property, plant and equipment, definite-lived intangible assets, and inventories).

•Deferred taxes and other tax related: includes adjustments for book-to-tax basis differences due primarily to the step-up in fair value of fixed and intangible assets and goodwill, the utilization of net operating losses, and adjustments to our valuation allowance in connection with certain acquisitions and tax law changes. Other tax related items include certain adjustments to unrecognized tax benefits and withholding tax on repatriation of foreign earnings.

•Amortization of debt issuance costs: represents interest expense related to the amortization of deferred financing costs as well as debt discounts, net of premiums.

•Where applicable, the current income tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments.

Our definition of adjusted net income excludes the deferred provision for (or benefit from) income taxes and other tax related items described above. As we treat deferred income taxes as an adjustment to compute adjusted net income, the deferred income tax effect associated with the reconciling items presented below would not change adjusted net income for any period presented.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we held cash and cash equivalents in the following regions:

(In millions)	March 31, 2023		December 31, 2022
United Kingdom	$	17.0	$	15.7
United States	16.0		16.1
The Netherlands	669.7		861.3
China	228.9		210.0
Other	102.5		122.5
Total	$	1,034.1	$	1,225.5

The amount of cash and cash equivalents held in these geographic regions fluctuates throughout the year due to a variety of factors, such as our use of intercompany loans and dividends and the timing of cash receipts and disbursements in the normal course of business. Our earnings are not considered to be permanently reinvested in certain jurisdictions in which they were earned. We recognize a deferred tax liability on these unremitted earnings to the extent the remittance of such earnings cannot be recovered in a tax-free manner.

In certain jurisdictions, our cash balances are subject to withholding taxes immediately upon withdrawal of funds to a different jurisdiction. In addition, in order to take advantage of incentive programs offered by various jurisdictions, including tax incentives, we are required to maintain minimum cash balances in these jurisdictions. The transfer of cash from these jurisdictions could result in loss of incentives or higher cash tax expense, but those impacts are not expected to be material.

Our cash and cash equivalent balances are held in the following significant currencies (amounts in the tables below have been calculated based on unrounded numbers, accordingly, certain amounts may not appear to recalculate due to the effect of rounding):

Cash Flows:

The table below summarizes our primary sources and uses of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. We have derived these summarized statements of cash flows from the condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Amounts in the table below have been calculated based on unrounded numbers. Accordingly, certain amounts may not appear to recalculate due to the effect of rounding.

	For the three months ended
(In millions)	March 31, 2023		March 31, 2022
Net cash provided by/(used in):
Operating activities:
Net income adjusted for non-cash items	$	168.3	$	150.5
Changes in operating assets and liabilities, net	(71.4)		(103.2)

Operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased compared to the corresponding period of the prior year, primarily due to higher net income and timing of supplier payments and customer receipts. We also paid approximately $17.0 million in additional interest in the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Investing activities. Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 decreased compared to the corresponding period of the prior year, primarily due to no cash paid for acquisitions (compared to $48.4 million paid for Elastic M2M in the three months ended March 31, 2022) and no cash paid for investments in debt and equity securities (compared to $6.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022), partially offset by cash proceeds of $14.0 million from the divestiture of a business in the three months ended March 31, 2023. For fiscal year 2023, we anticipate capital expenditures of approximately $170.0 million to $180.0 million, which we expect to fund with cash on hand.

Financing activities. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased primarily due to the $250.0 million payment on the Term Loan made in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and $16.8 million paid to shareholders in the form of cash dividends paid, partially offset by lower cash paid to repurchase ordinary shares as part of our share repurchase program. On April 25, 2023, we announced that we intended to pay down $196.8 million (the remaining outstanding balance) on the Term Loan in the second quarter of 2023, which will be presented as a cash outflow within financing activities.

Indebtedness and Liquidity

As of March 31, 2023, we had $4.0 billion in gross indebtedness, which includes finance lease and other financing obligations and excludes debt discounts, premiums, and deferred financing costs.

Capital Resources

Senior Secured Credit Facilities

The Credit Agreement provides for Senior Secured Credit Facilities consisting of the Term Loan, the Revolving Credit Facility, and incremental availability (the "Accordion") under which additional secured credit facilities could be issued under certain circumstances. In the first quarter of 2023, we paid $250 million on the Term Loan. We intend to repay the remaining outstanding balance in the second quarter of 2023.

Sources of liquidity

Our sources of liquidity include cash on hand, cash flows from operations, and available capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2023, we had $746.1 million available under the Revolving Credit Facility, net of $3.9 million of obligations in respect of outstanding letters of credit issued thereunder. Outstanding letters of credit are issued primarily for the benefit of certain operating activities. As of March 31, 2023, no amounts had been drawn against these outstanding letters of credit. Availability under the Accordion varies each period based on our attainment of certain financial metrics as set forth in the terms of the Credit Agreement and the indentures under which our senior notes were issued (the "Senior Notes Indentures"). As of March 31, 2023, availability under the Accordion was approximately $1.0 billion.

27

We believe, based on our current level of operations and taking into consideration the restrictions and covenants included in the Credit Agreement and Senior Notes Indentures, that the sources of liquidity described above will be sufficient to fund our operations, capital expenditures, dividend payments, ordinary share repurchases, and debt service for at least the next twelve months. However, we cannot make assurances that our business will generate sufficient cash flows from operations or that future borrowings will be available to us in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs. Further, our highly-leveraged nature may limit our ability to procure additional financing in the future.

Our ability to raise additional financing, and our borrowing costs, may be impacted by short- and long-term debt ratings assigned by independent rating agencies, which are based, in significant part, on our performance as measured by certain credit metrics such as interest coverage and leverage ratios. As of April 21, 2023, Moody’s Investors Service’s corporate credit rating for STBV was Ba2 with a stable outlook, and Standard & Poor’s corporate credit rating for STBV was BB+ with a stable outlook. Any future downgrades to STBV's credit ratings may increase our future borrowing costs but will not reduce availability under the Credit Agreement.

Restrictions and Covenants

The Credit Agreement provides that if our senior secured net leverage ratio exceeds a specified level we are required to use a portion of our excess cash flow, as defined in the Credit Agreement, generated by operating, investing, or financing activities to prepay some or all of the outstanding borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. The Credit Agreement also requires mandatory prepayments of the outstanding borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities upon certain asset dispositions and casualty events, in each case subject to certain reinvestment rights, and upon the incurrence of certain indebtedness (excluding any permitted indebtedness). These provisions were not triggered during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

The Credit Agreement and the Senior Notes Indentures contain restrictions and covenants that limit the ability of our wholly-owned subsidiary, STBV, and certain of its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur subsequent indebtedness, sell assets, pay dividends, and make other restricted payments. For a full discussion of these restrictions and covenants, refer to Part II, Item 7: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Capital Resources included in our 2022 Annual Report. These restrictions and covenants, which are subject to important exceptions and qualifications set forth in the Credit Agreement and Senior Notes Indentures, were taken into consideration when we established our share repurchase programs and will be evaluated periodically with respect to future potential funding of those programs. As of March 31, 2023, we believe we were in compliance with all covenants and default provisions under our credit arrangements.

Share repurchase programs

From time to time, our Board of Directors has authorized various share repurchase programs, which may be modified or terminated by our Board at any time. We currently have an authorized $500.0 million share repurchase program (the "January 2022 Program") under which approximately $224.5 million remained available as of March 31, 2023. We did not repurchase any ordinary shares under this program in the three months ended March 31, 2023. In the three months ended March 31, 2022, we repurchased 1.1 million ordinary shares under the January 2022 Program.

Dividends

On February 22, 2023, we paid a cash dividend of $0.11 per share, or $16.8 million in aggregate, to shareholders of record as of February 8, 2023. On April 13, 2023, we announced that our Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share, payable on May 24, 2023 to shareholders of record as of May 10, 2023.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

There are no recently issued accounting standards that have been adopted in the current period or will be adopted in future periods that have had or are expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures.

The required certifications of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Accounting Officer are included as exhibits to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The disclosures set forth in this Item 4 contain information concerning the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures and changes in internal control over financial reporting referred to in these certifications. These certifications should be read in conjunction with this Item 4 for a more complete understanding of the matters covered by the certifications.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

With the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Accounting Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2023. The term "disclosure controls and procedures," as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2023, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Accounting Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, even an effective system of internal control over financial reporting can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our internal controls over financial reporting are subject to various inherent limitations, including cost limitations, judgments used in decision making, assumptions about the likelihood of future events, the soundness of our systems, the possibility of human error, and the risk of fraud. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may be inadequate because of changes in conditions and the risk that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate over time.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.Legal Proceedings.

We are regularly involved in a number of claims and litigation matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters, based upon our experience and current information known to us, we do not expect the outcome of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, and/or cash flows.

Item 1A.Risk Factors.

Information regarding risk factors appears in Part I, Item 1A: Risk Factors, included in our 2022 Annual Report. There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed therein.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is hereby executed by and between Sensata Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Jennifer Slater (“Executive”), to be effective as of April 1, 2023 (the “Effective Date”).

WHEREAS, the Company and Executive desire to enter into an employment agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are expressly hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.Employment. The Company shall employ Executive, and Executive hereby agrees to continue employment with the Company, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement for the period beginning on the Effective Date and ending as provided in Section 4 hereof (the “Employment Period”). Subject to applicable law, the parties agree that for purposes of calculating years of service under any benefit plans or programs, Executive’s employment with the Company commenced as of September 11, 2022 unless expressly provided otherwise under the terms of any employee benefit plans or programs.

2.Position and Duties.

(a)During the Employment Period, Executive shall serve as Senior Vice President, Performance Sensing, Automotive & Aftermarket of the Company and shall have the duties, responsibilities, functions and authority that are normally associated with the position of Senior Vice President. Executive’s duties shall be subject to the power and authority of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Company Board”) and the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Sensata Technologies Holding plc, a public limited company formed under the laws of England and Wales (“Parent”), to expand or limit such duties, responsibilities, functions and authority and to overrule actions of officers of the Company. During the Employment Period, Executive shall render to Parent and its Subsidiaries (as defined herein) administrative, financial and other executive and managerial services that are consistent with Executive’s position as the Board may from time to time direct.

(b)Executive shall report to the Chief Executive Officer and President, or to such other person or persons as may be designated from time to time by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board. Executive shall devote her full business time and attention (except for vacation periods consistent with past practice and reasonable periods of illness or other incapacity) to the business and affairs of Parent and its Subsidiaries. In performing her duties and exercising her authority under this Agreement, Executive shall support and implement the business and strategic plans approved from time to time by the Board. As long as Executive is employed by the Company, Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the Board, perform other services for compensation. Unless otherwise agreed by Executive, Executive’s place of work shall be in the greater Milwaukee, Wisconsin metropolitan area, except for travel reasonably required for Company business.

(c)For purposes of this Agreement, “Subsidiaries” shall mean any corporation or other entity of which the securities or other ownership interests having the voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors or other governing body are, at the time of determination, owned by Parent, directly or through one or more Subsidiaries.

1

(d)For purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” shall mean with respect to Parent and its Subsidiaries, any other Person controlling, controlled by or under common control with Parent or any of its Subsidiaries and, in the case of a Person that is a partnership, any partner of the Person.

(e)For purposes of this Agreement, “Person” shall mean an individual, a partnership, a corporation, a limited liability company, an association, a joint stock company, a trust, a joint venture, an unincorporated organization and a governmental entity or any department, agency or political subdivision thereof.

3.Compensation and Benefits.

(a)During the Employment Period, Executive’s base salary shall be equal to the amount determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board on an annual basis (as adjusted from time to time, the “Base Salary”), which Base Salary shall be payable by the Company in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices (in effect from time to time). In addition, during the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to participate in all of the Company’s employee benefit programs for which senior executive employees of Parent and its Subsidiaries are generally eligible (assuming Executive and/or her family meet the eligibility requirements of those benefit programs) (the “Senior Executive Benefits”).

(b)During the Employment Period, Executive shall be reimbursed by the Company for all reasonable business expenses incurred by her in the course of performing her duties and responsibilities under this Agreement, which business expenses are consistent with the Company’s policies in effect from time to time with respect to travel, entertainment and other business expenses. Reimbursement of the costs and expenses set forth in this Section 3(b) are subject to the Company’s requirements with respect to reporting and documentation of such costs and expenses.

(c)In addition to the Base Salary, Executive shall be eligible to earn an annual bonus (“Annual Bonus”) in an amount as determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board equal to a certain percentage of the Base Salary then in effect, with such other terms and based upon Executive’s individual performance and/or the achievement by Parent and its Subsidiaries of financial and other objectives, in each case as established for each fiscal year by the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board. Executive will become entitled to receive an Annual Bonus, if any, only if Executive continues to be employed by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries through April 1st of the fiscal year following the fiscal year to which such Annual Bonus relates and such Annual Bonus, if any, will be paid to Executive by the Company on or before April 15th of the fiscal year following the fiscal year to which such Annual Bonus relates. There is no guaranteed Annual Bonus under this Agreement, and for each applicable year, Executive’s Annual Bonus could be as low as zero or as high as the maximum Annual Bonus opportunity established for such year.

4.Term.

(a)The Employment Period shall end on the first anniversary of the Effective Date, but shall automatically be renewed on the same terms and conditions set forth herein (as may be modified from time to time in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) for additional one-year periods beginning on the first anniversary of the Effective Date and on each successive anniversary of the Effective Date, unless the Company or Executive gives the other party written notice of the election not to renew the Employment Period at least 90 days prior to any such renewal date; provided that, the Employment Period shall terminate immediately upon Executive’s resignation (with or without Good Reason, as defined below), death or Disability (as

2

defined below) or upon the Company’s termination of Executive’s employment (whether with Cause (as defined below) or without Cause).

(b)If the Employment Period is terminated (1) by the Company without Cause (other than as a result of Executive’s Disability) or (2) upon Executive’s resignation with Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled to: (i) her Base Salary through the date of termination; (ii) any Annual Bonus amounts to which Executive is entitled for years that ended on or prior to the date of termination in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 3(c) (including the requirement that Executive remain employed by the Parent or its Subsidiaries through April 1 of the fiscal year following the fiscal year to which such Annual Bonus relates); (iii) an amount equal to one year of Executive’s then current Base Salary plus an amount equal to the average of the Annual Bonuses paid to Executive for the two completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date of the termination of Executive’s employment; and (iv) running concurrently with (and counting toward) her COBRA period, continued participation throughout the Severance Period (as defined below) in all health and dental benefit plans in which Executive was entitled to participate immediately prior to the termination of Executive’s employment (or the Company shall arrange to make available to Executive benefits substantially similar to those which Executive would otherwise have been entitled to receive over such period if Executive’s employment had not been terminated) on the same terms and conditions (including the amount of employee contributions toward premium payments but not guaranteeing any particular tax result to Executive of such continued benefits) under which Executive was entitled to participate immediately prior to her termination. Any stock options, RSUs or other equity awards granted to Executive shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Management Equity Plans and such awards. The amounts and benefits described in clauses (iii) and (iv) of this Section 4(b) will be paid if and only if Executive has executed and delivered to the Company a separation agreement with a general release to be provided by the Company in connection with Executive’s termination, and such release has become effective and no longer subject to revocation not later than sixty (60) days following the date of termination (the “General Release”) and only if Executive does not breach the provisions of Sections 5 through 7 hereof. The amounts payable pursuant to clause (iii) of this Section 4(b) shall be payable in a lump sum payment following the date of termination (the “Severance Period”) in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices as in effect on the date of termination; provided that no amounts shall be paid until the first scheduled payment date following the date the General Release is executed and no longer subject to revocation, with the first such payment being in an amount equal to the total amount to which Executive would otherwise have been entitled during the period following the date of termination through such payment date if such deferral had not been required. The amounts and benefits described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 4(b) shall be paid to Executive in a lump sum in cash within thirty (30) days of the applicable date of termination.

(c)If the Employment Period is terminated (1) by the Company with Cause, (2) due to Executive’s death or Disability or (3) by Executive’s resignation without Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled to receive (i) her Base Salary through the date of termination and (ii) any Annual Bonus amounts to which Executive is entitled determined by reference to years that ended on or prior to the date of termination in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 3(c) (including the requirement that Executive remain employed by the Parent or its Subsidiaries through April 1 of the fiscal year following the fiscal year to which such Annual Bonus relates). The amounts and benefits described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 4(c) shall be paid to Executive or, in the event of death, Executive’s estate or beneficiaries, in a lump sum in cash within thirty (30) days of the applicable date of termination.

(d)Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Executive shall not be entitled to any other salary, bonuses, employee benefits or compensation from the Company or its Subsidiaries after the termination of the Employment Period and all of Executive’s rights to

3

salary, bonuses, employee benefits and other compensation hereunder which would have accrued or become payable after the termination of the Employment Period (other than vested retirement benefits accrued on or prior to the termination of the Employment Period in accordance with the terms of the applicable retirement plan or other amounts owing hereunder as of the date of such termination that have not yet been paid) shall cease upon such termination, other than those expressly required under applicable law (such as COBRA) or as provided under an applicable Management Equity Plan.

(e)Executive is under no obligation to mitigate damages or the amount of any payment provided for hereunder by seeking other employment or otherwise, and the Company shall have no right of offset for any amounts received by Executive from other employment; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Executive’s coverage under the Company’s health and dental benefit plans will terminate when Executive becomes eligible under any employee benefit plan made available by another employer covering health and dental benefits. Executive shall notify the Company within thirty (30) days after becoming eligible for any such benefits.

(f)Subject to applicable law, the Company may offset any amounts Executive owes Parent and its Subsidiaries against any amounts Parent and its Subsidiaries owe Executive hereunder.

(g)For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean, with respect to Executive, one or more of the following: (1) the indictment for a felony or other crime involving moral turpitude or the commission of any other act or any omission to act involving fraud with respect to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their customers or suppliers; (2) any act or any omission to act involving dishonesty or disloyalty that causes, or in the good faith judgment of the Board would be reasonably likely to cause, material harm (including reputational harm) to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their customers or suppliers; (3) any (i) repeated abuse of alcohol or (ii) abuse of controlled substances, in either case, that adversely affects Executive’s work performance (and, in the case of clause (i), continues to occur at any time more than thirty (30) days after Executive has been given written notice thereof) or brings Parent or its Subsidiaries into public disgrace or disrepute; (4) the failure by Executive to substantially perform duties as reasonably directed by the Board, which non-performance remains uncured for ten (10) days after written notice thereof is given to Executive; (5) willful misconduct with respect to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, which misconducts causes, or in the good faith judgment of the Board would be reasonably likely to cause, material harm (including reputational harm) to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries; (6) the failure of Executive to cooperate in any audit or investigation of the business or financial practices of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries; or (7) any breach by Executive of Sections 5 through 7 of this Agreement or any other material breach of this Agreement or the Management Equity Plans (as defined below).

(h)Executive will be “Disabled” only if, as a result of her incapacity due to physical or mental illness, Executive is considered disabled under the Company’s long-term disability insurance plans.

(i)For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean if Executive resigns from employment with the Company and, if applicable, its Subsidiaries prior to the end of the Employment Period as a result of one or more of the following reasons: (1) any reduction in Executive’s Base Salary or Annual Bonus opportunity, without Executive’s prior consent, in either case other than any reduction which (i) is generally applicable to senior leadership team executives of the Company and (ii) does not exceed 15% of Executive’s Base Salary and Annual Bonus opportunity in the aggregate; (2) any material breach by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries of any agreement between such Persons and Executive; or (3) a change in Executive’s principal office without Executive’s prior consent to a location that is more than fifty (50) miles from

4

Executive’s principal office on the date hereof; provided that, in order for Executive’s resignation with Good Reason to be effective hereunder, Executive must provide written notice to the Company of the event constituting Good Reason within thirty (30) days of the initial occurrence of such event, the Company shall have thirty (30) days after delivery of such written notice to cure such event to Executive’s reasonable satisfaction, and Executive’s resignation with Good Reason must be effective within thirty (30) days following the end of the Company’s cure period.

(j)For purposes of this Agreement, “Management Equity Plans” shall mean the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan of Parent, including any amendments thereto, together with any other incentive equity plan of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries under which Executive may have in the past received, or may in the future receive any equity or equity-based award, along with any Award Agreements (as defined therein) and any attachments thereto, as amended from time to time.

5.Confidential Information.

(a)Executive acknowledges that the continued success of Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, depends upon the use and protection of a large body of confidential and proprietary information. All of such confidential and proprietary information now existing or to be developed in the future will be referred to in this Agreement as “Confidential Information”. Confidential Information will be interpreted as broadly as possible to include all information of any sort (whether merely remembered or embodied in a tangible or intangible form) that is (1) related to Parent’s or its Subsidiaries’ or Affiliates’ current or potential business and (2) is not generally or publicly known. Confidential Information includes, without specific limitation, the information, observations and data obtained by Executive during the course of her performance with Parent and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (including the Company) concerning the business and affairs of Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, information concerning acquisition opportunities in or reasonably related to the Parent’s or its Subsidiaries’ or Affiliates’ business or industry of which Executive has become or becomes aware during her employment, the persons or entities that are current, former or prospective suppliers or customers of any one or more of them during Executive’s course of performance, as well as development, transition and transformation plans, methodologies and methods of doing business, strategic, marketing and expansion plans, including plans regarding planned and potential sales, financial and business plans, employee lists and telephone numbers, locations of sales representatives, new and existing programs and services, prices and terms, customer service, integration processes, requirements and costs of providing service, support and equipment. Therefore, Executive agrees that during her employment and thereafter she shall not disclose to any unauthorized person or use for her own account any of such Confidential Information without the Board’s prior written consent, unless and to the extent that any Confidential Information (i) becomes generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of Executive’s acts or omissions to act; or (ii) is required to be disclosed pursuant to any applicable law or court order. Executive agrees to deliver to the Company at the end of the Employment Period, or at any other time the Company may request in writing, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and other documents (and copies thereof) relating to the business of Parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (including, without limitation, all Confidential Information) that she may then possess or have under her control.

(b)During the Employment Period, Executive shall not use or disclose any confidential information, including trade secrets, if any, of any former employers or any other person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality, and shall not bring onto the premises of Parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or any other Person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by the former employer or Person. Executive shall

5

use in the performance of her duties only information that is (1) generally known and used by persons with training and experience comparable to Executive’s and that is (i) common knowledge in the industry or (ii) is otherwise legally in the public domain; (2) otherwise provided or developed by Parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates; or (3) in the case of materials, property or information belonging to any former employer or other Person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality, approved for such use in writing by such former employer or Person. If at any time during the Employment Period, Executive believes she is being asked to engage in work that will, or will be likely to, jeopardize any confidentiality or other obligations Executive may have to former employers, Executive shall immediately advise the Board so that Executive’s duties can be modified appropriately.

(c)Executive represents and warrants to the Parent and its Subsidiaries that Executive took nothing with her that belonged to any former employer when Executive left her position(s) with such employer(s) that Executive was not authorized to take and that Executive has nothing that contains any confidential information that belongs to any former employer. If at any time Executive discovers that this representation is incorrect, Executive shall promptly return any such materials to Executive’s former employer(s). Parent and its Subsidiaries do not want any such materials, and Executive shall not be permitted to use or refer to any such materials in the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder.

(d)Executive understands that Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates will receive from third parties confidential or proprietary information (“Third Party Information”) subject to a duty on Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ and Affiliates’ part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. During the Employment Period and thereafter, and without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 5(a) above, Executive will hold Third Party Information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than personnel of Parent or its Subsidiaries and Affiliates who need to know such information in connection with their work for Parent or such Subsidiaries and Affiliates) or use, except in connection with her work for Parent or its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, Third Party Information unless expressly authorized by a member of the Board in writing.

(e)Under the federal Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Executive shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (1) 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 (2) is made to Executive’s attorney in relation to a lawsuit for retaliation against the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law; or (3) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Further, nothing in this Agreement prevents Executive from providing, without prior notice to the Company or its Affiliates, information to governmental authorities regarding possible legal violations or otherwise testifying or participating in any investigation or proceeding by any governmental authorities regarding possible legal violations.

6.Intellectual Property, Inventions and Patents. Executive acknowledges that all discoveries, concepts, ideas, inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses, drawings, reports, patent applications, copyrightable work and mask work (whether or not including any confidential information) and all registrations or applications related thereto, all other proprietary information and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable) that relate to Parent’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ actual or anticipated business, research and development or existing or future products or services and that are conceived, developed or made by Executive (whether alone or jointly with others) while employed by the Company and its Subsidiaries, whether before or after the date of this Agreement (“Work Product”), belong to Parent, the Company or such Subsidiary. At the Company’s expense, Executive shall perform all actions reasonably requested by the Board (whether during or after

6

the Employment Period) to establish and confirm such ownership (including, without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of attorney and other instruments).

7.Non-Compete; Non-Solicitation.

(a)In further consideration of the compensation and benefits to be paid to Executive hereunder, Executive acknowledges that during the course of her employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries, she has and shall become familiar with Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ and Affiliates’ corporate strategy, pricing and other market information, know-how, trade secrets and valuable customer, supplier and employee relationships, and with other Confidential Information concerning Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, and that her services have been and shall be of special, unique and extraordinary value to Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates. Accordingly, Executive agrees that, during the Employment Period and for one (1) year thereafter (the “Non-compete Period”), if the termination of Executive’s employment is voluntary or for “Cause” (as defined above), she shall not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Company, serve in a capacity similar to the position(s) held by Executive with the Company in the last two (2) years of Executive’s employment by the Company, and in a geographic area to which Executive was assigned, in which Executive provided services or had a material presence or influence, or for which Executive was directly or indirectly responsible, during the last two (2) years of her employment by the Company, own any interest in, manage, control, participate in, consult with, render services for, or in any manner engage in any Competing Business that conducts operations or sales in such U.S. states, or such countries outside the United States, as Parent and its Subsidiaries conduct sales or operations as of the date of termination of the Employment Period. Nothing herein shall prohibit Executive from being a passive owner of not more than 2% of the outstanding stock of any class of a publicly-traded corporation, so long as Executive has no active participation in the business of such corporation. For purpose of this Agreement, “Competing Business” shall mean any business engaged (whether directly or indirectly) in the design, manufacture, marketing, or sale of products or services competitive with those designed, manufactured, marketed or sold by the Parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive has received sufficient mutually agreed-upon consideration for agreeing to be bound by the obligations in this Section, specifically the salary, benefits and the potential to receive severance set forth in Section 4(b) above. The restrictions in this Section do not become effective until the 11th business day after this Agreement is executed by Executive.

(b)During the Non-compete Period, Executive shall not directly or indirectly through another person or entity (1) induce or attempt to induce any employee of Parent or any Subsidiary to leave the employ of Parent or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between Parent or any Subsidiary and any employee thereof; (2) knowingly hire any person who was an employee of Parent or any Subsidiary at any time during the twelve (12) months prior to the termination of Executive’s employment; or (3) induce or encourage, or attempt to induce, encourage or solicit, any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor or other business relation of Parent or any Subsidiary to cease doing business with Parent or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee, licensor or business relation and Parent or any Subsidiary (including, without limitation, making any negative or disparaging statements or communications regarding Parent or its Subsidiaries); provided that, in each case, this Section 7(b) shall only apply if Executive shall have done business with, or had direct or indirect supervisory or other responsibility for, the employee, customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, or business relation to which the applicable clause of this Section 7(b) applies.

(c)If, at the time of enforcement of this Section 7, a court shall hold that the duration, scope or area restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties agree that the maximum duration, scope or area reasonable under such

7

circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and that the court shall be allowed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period, scope and area permitted by law. Executive acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 7 are reasonable and that she has reviewed the provisions of this Agreement with her legal counsel.

(d)Executive acknowledges that any breach or threatened breach of the provisions of this Section 7 would cause Parent and its Subsidiaries irreparable harm. Accordingly, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in its favor, the Company shall be entitled to specific performance and/or injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). Further, in the event of an alleged breach or violation by Executive of this Section 7, the Non-compete Period shall be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured.

8.Executive’s Representations. Executive hereby represents and warrants to the Company that (a) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Executive do not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which Executive is a party or by which she is bound; (b) Executive is not a party to or bound by any employment agreement, non-compete agreement or confidentiality agreement with any other person or entity; and (c) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, this Agreement shall be the valid and binding obligation of Executive, enforceable in accordance with its terms. Executive hereby acknowledges and represents that she has consulted with independent legal counsel regarding her rights and obligations under this Agreement and that she fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein.

9.Recoupment Policy. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Executive acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement and any compensation described herein are subject to the terms and conditions of the Company's recoupment policy (if any) as may be in effect from time to time, including specifically to implement Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and any applicable rules or regulations promulgated thereunder (including applicable rules and regulations of any national securities exchange on which the shares of the Company’s common stock may be traded) (the “Claw-back Policy”), and that applicable sections of this Agreement and any related documents shall be deemed superseded by and subject to the terms and conditions of the Claw-back Policy from and after the effective date thereof.

10.Survival. Sections 4 through 24 (other than Section 22) shall survive and continue in full force in accordance with their terms notwithstanding the termination of the Employment Period.

14.No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any party.

15.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts (including by means of facsimile), each of which is deemed to be an original and all of which taken together constitute one and the same agreement.

16.Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and any successor to the Company, including, without limitation, any Persons acquiring directly or indirectly all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company whether by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise (and such successor shall thereafter be deemed the “Company” for the purposes of this Agreement), but will not otherwise be assignable, transferable or delegable by the Company other than to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees and legatees, but otherwise will not otherwise be assignable, transferable or delegable by Executive. This Agreement is personal in nature and neither of the parties hereto shall, without the consent of the other, assign, transfer or delegate this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 16.

17.Choice of Law. All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or

9

conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

19.Insurance. The Company may, at its discretion, apply for and procure in its own name and for its own benefit life and/or disability insurance on Executive in any amount or amounts considered advisable. Executive agrees to cooperate in any medical or other examination, supply any information and execute and deliver any applications or other instruments in writing as may be reasonably necessary to obtain and constitute such insurance.

20.Tax Matters; Code Section 409A.

(a)The Company and its respective Subsidiaries shall be entitled to deduct or withhold from any amounts owing from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to Executive any federal, state, local or foreign withholding taxes, excise tax, or employment taxes (“Taxes”) imposed with respect to Executive’s compensation or other payments from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Executive’s ownership interest in Parent (including, without limitation, wages, bonuses, dividends, the receipt or exercise of equity options and/or the receipt or vesting of restricted equity). In the event the Company or any of its Subsidiaries does not make such deductions or withholdings, Executive shall indemnify the Company and its Subsidiaries for any amounts paid with respect to any such Taxes, together (if such failure to withhold was at the written direction of Executive) with any interest, penalties and related expenses thereto. The Company does not guarantee any particular tax result to Executive with respect to any payments or benefits provided hereunder.

(b)The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code Section 409A”) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. In no event whatsoever shall the Company, or Parent or any of their Subsidiaries be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on Executive by Code Section 409A or damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A.

(c)A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided until the date which is the earlier of (1) the first business day following the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of such “separation

10

from service” of Executive, and (2) the date of Executive’s death, to the extent required under Code Section 409A. Upon the expiration of the foregoing delay period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 19(c)(whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to Executive in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.

(d)To the extent that reimbursements or other in-kind benefits under this Agreement constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, (1) all such expenses or other reimbursements hereunder shall be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by Executive; (2) any right to such reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit; and (3) no such reimbursement, expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year.

(e)For purposes of Code Section 409A, Executive’s right to receive any payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments.

(f)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any payment under this Agreement that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A be subject to offset by any other amount unless otherwise permitted by Code Section 409A.

21.Waiver of Jury Trial. AS A SPECIFICALLY BARGAINED FOR INDUCEMENT FOR EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT (AFTER HAVING THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH COUNSEL), EACH PARTY HERETO EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LAWSUIT OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO OR ARISING IN ANY WAY FROM THIS AGREEMENT OR THE MATTERS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

22.Corporate Opportunity. During the Employment Period, Executive shall submit to the Board all business, commercial and investment opportunities or offers presented to Executive, or of which Executive becomes aware, at any time during the Employment Period, which opportunities relate to the business of designing, manufacturing, marketing, or selling products or services competitive with those designed, manufactured, marketed or sold by the Parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (“Corporate Opportunities”). During the Employment Period, unless approved by the Board, Executive shall not accept or pursue, directly or indirectly, any Corporate Opportunities on Executive’s own behalf.

23.Executive’s Cooperation. During the Employment Period and thereafter, Executive shall reasonably cooperate with Parent and its Subsidiaries in any internal investigation or administrative, regulatory or judicial proceeding as reasonably requested by Parent or any Subsidiary (including, without limitation, Executive being available to Parent and its Subsidiaries upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations, appearing at Parent’s or any Subsidiary’s request to give truthful and accurate testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, volunteering to Parent and its Subsidiaries all pertinent information and turning over to Parent and its Subsidiaries all relevant documents which are or may come into Executive’s possession, all at times and on schedules that are reasonably consistent with Executive’s other permitted activities and commitments). In the event Parent or any Subsidiary requires Executive’s cooperation in accordance with this Section 23, Parent shall pay Executive a per diem reasonably determined by the Board or the Compensation

11

Committee and reimburse Executive for reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith (including lodging and meals, upon submission of receipts).

24.Nondisparagement. Executive agrees not to, except as may be required by law, directly or indirectly, publicly or privately, make, publish or solicit, or encourage others to make, publish or solicit, any disparaging statements, comments, announcements, or remarks concerning Parent or its Affiliates, or any of their respective past and present directors, officers or employees. Parent and its Affiliates agree not to, except as may be required by law, directly or indirectly, publicly or privately, make, publish or solicit, or encourage others to make, publish or solicit, any disparaging statements, comments, announcements or remarks concerning Executive or her employment with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

25.Acknowledgement. Executive acknowledges that she had the opportunity to consult with counsel regarding this Agreement.

WHEREAS, the Company and Executive desire to enter into an employment agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are expressly hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.Employment. The Company shall employ Executive, and Executive hereby agrees to continue employment with the Company, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement for the period beginning on the Effective Date and ending as provided in Section 4 hereof (the “Employment Period”). Subject to applicable law, the parties agree that for purposes of calculating years of service under any benefit plans or programs, Executive’s employment with the Company commenced as of January 6, 1998 unless expressly provided otherwise under the terms of any employee benefit plans or programs.

2.Position and Duties.

(a)During the Employment Period, Executive shall serve as Senior Vice President, Sensing Solutions of the Company and shall have the duties, responsibilities, functions and authority that are normally associated with the position of Senior Vice President. Executive’s duties shall be subject to the power and authority of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Company Board”) and the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Sensata Technologies Holding plc, a public limited company formed under the laws of England and Wales (“Parent”), to expand or limit such duties, responsibilities, functions and authority and to overrule actions of officers of the Company. During the Employment Period, Executive shall render to Parent and its Subsidiaries (as defined herein) administrative, financial and other executive and managerial services that are consistent with Executive’s position as the Board may from time to time direct.

(b)Executive shall report to the Chief Executive Officer and President, or to such other person or persons as may be designated from time to time by the Chief Executive Officer or the Board. Executive shall devote his full business time and attention (except for vacation periods consistent with past practice and reasonable periods of illness or other incapacity) to the business and affairs of Parent and its Subsidiaries. In performing his duties and exercising his authority under this Agreement, Executive shall support and implement the business and strategic plans approved from time to time by the Board. As long as Executive is employed by the Company, Executive shall not, without the prior written consent of the Board, perform other services for compensation. Unless otherwise agreed by Executive, Executive’s place of work shall be in the greater Attleboro, Massachusetts metropolitan area, except for travel reasonably required for Company business.

(c)For purposes of this Agreement, “Subsidiaries” shall mean any corporation or other entity of which the securities or other ownership interests having the voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors or other governing body are, at the time of determination, owned by Parent, directly or through one or more Subsidiaries.

(d)For purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” shall mean with respect to Parent and its Subsidiaries, any other Person controlling, controlled by or under common control

1

with Parent or any of its Subsidiaries and, in the case of a Person that is a partnership, any partner of the Person.

(e)For purposes of this Agreement, “Person” shall mean an individual, a partnership, a corporation, a limited liability company, an association, a joint stock company, a trust, a joint venture, an unincorporated organization and a governmental entity or any department, agency or political subdivision thereof.

3.Compensation and Benefits.

(a)During the Employment Period, Executive’s base salary shall be equal to the amount determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board on an annual basis (as adjusted from time to time, the “Base Salary”), which Base Salary shall be payable by the Company in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices (in effect from time to time). In addition, during the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to participate in all of the Company’s employee benefit programs for which senior executive employees of Parent and its Subsidiaries are generally eligible (assuming Executive and/or his family meet the eligibility requirements of those benefit programs) (the “Senior Executive Benefits”).

(b)During the Employment Period, Executive shall be reimbursed by the Company for all reasonable business expenses incurred by his in the course of performing his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement, which business expenses are consistent with the Company’s policies in effect from time to time with respect to travel, entertainment and other business expenses. Reimbursement of the costs and expenses set forth in this Section 3(b) are subject to the Company’s requirements with respect to reporting and documentation of such costs and expenses.

(c)In addition to the Base Salary, Executive shall be eligible to earn an annual bonus (“Annual Bonus”) in an amount as determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board equal to a certain percentage of the Base Salary then in effect, with such other terms and based upon Executive’s individual performance and/or the achievement by Parent and its Subsidiaries of financial and other objectives, in each case as established for each fiscal year by the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board. Executive will become entitled to receive an Annual Bonus, if any, only if Executive continues to be employed by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries through April 1st of the fiscal year following the fiscal year to which such Annual Bonus relates and such Annual Bonus, if any, will be paid to Executive by the Company on or before April 15th of the fiscal year following the fiscal year to which such Annual Bonus relates. There is no guaranteed Annual Bonus under this Agreement, and for each applicable year, Executive’s Annual Bonus could be as low as zero or as high as the maximum Annual Bonus opportunity established for such year.

4.Term.

(a)The Employment Period shall end on the first anniversary of the Effective Date, but shall automatically be renewed on the same terms and conditions set forth herein (as may be modified from time to time in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) for additional one-year periods beginning on the first anniversary of the Effective Date and on each successive anniversary of the Effective Date, unless the Company or Executive gives the other party written notice of the election not to renew the Employment Period at least 90 days prior to any such renewal date; provided that, the Employment Period shall terminate immediately upon Executive’s resignation (with or without Good Reason, as defined below), death or Disability (as defined below) or upon the Company’s termination of Executive’s employment (whether with Cause (as defined below) or without Cause).

2

(b)If the Employment Period is terminated (1) by the Company without Cause (other than as a result of Executive’s Disability) or (2) upon Executive’s resignation with Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled to: (i) his Base Salary through the date of termination; (ii) any Annual Bonus amounts to which Executive is entitled for years that ended on or prior to the date of termination in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 3(c) (including the requirement that Executive remain employed by the Parent or its Subsidiaries through April 1 of the fiscal year following the fiscal year to which such Annual Bonus relates); (iii) an amount equal to one year of Executive’s then current Base Salary plus an amount equal to the average of the Annual Bonuses paid to Executive for the two completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date of the termination of Executive’s employment; and (iv) running concurrently with (and counting toward) his COBRA period, continued participation throughout the Severance Period (as defined below) in all health and dental benefit plans in which Executive was entitled to participate immediately prior to the termination of Executive’s employment (or the Company shall arrange to make available to Executive benefits substantially similar to those which Executive would otherwise have been entitled to receive over such period if Executive’s employment had not been terminated) on the same terms and conditions (including the amount of employee contributions toward premium payments but not guaranteeing any particular tax result to Executive of such continued benefits) under which Executive was entitled to participate immediately prior to his termination. Any stock options, RSUs or other equity awards granted to Executive shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Management Equity Plans and such awards. The amounts and benefits described in clauses (iii) and (iv) of this Section 4(b) will be paid if and only if Executive has executed and delivered to the Company a separation agreement with a general release to be provided by the Company in connection with Executive’s termination, and such release has become effective and no longer subject to revocation not later than sixty (60) days following the date of termination (the “General Release”) and only if Executive does not breach the provisions of Sections 5 through 7 hereof. The amounts payable pursuant to clause (iii) of this Section 4(b) shall be payable in a lump sum payment following the date of termination (the “Severance Period”) in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices as in effect on the date of termination; provided that no amounts shall be paid until the first scheduled payment date following the date the General Release is executed and no longer subject to revocation, with the first such payment being in an amount equal to the total amount to which Executive would otherwise have been entitled during the period following the date of termination through such payment date if such deferral had not been required. The amounts and benefits described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 4(b) shall be paid to Executive in a lump sum in cash within thirty (30) days of the applicable date of termination.

(c)If the Employment Period is terminated (1) by the Company with Cause, (2) due to Executive’s death or Disability or (3) by Executive’s resignation without Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled to receive (i) his Base Salary through the date of termination and (ii) any Annual Bonus amounts to which Executive is entitled determined by reference to years that ended on or prior to the date of termination in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 3(c) (including the requirement that Executive remain employed by the Parent or its Subsidiaries through April 1 of the fiscal year following the fiscal year to which such Annual Bonus relates). The amounts and benefits described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 4(c) shall be paid to Executive or, in the event of death, Executive’s estate or beneficiaries, in a lump sum in cash within thirty (30) days of the applicable date of termination.

(d)Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Executive shall not be entitled to any other salary, bonuses, employee benefits or compensation from the Company or its Subsidiaries after the termination of the Employment Period and all of Executive’s rights to salary, bonuses, employee benefits and other compensation hereunder which would have accrued or become payable after the termination of the Employment Period (other than vested retirement benefits accrued on or prior to the termination of the Employment Period in accordance with the

(j)For purposes of this Agreement, “Management Equity Plans” shall mean the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan of Parent, including any amendments thereto, together with any other incentive equity plan of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries under which Executive may have in the past received, or may in the future receive any equity or equity-based award, along with any Award Agreements (as defined therein) and any attachments thereto, as amended from time to time.

5.Confidential Information.

(a)Executive acknowledges that the continued success of Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, depends upon the use and protection of a large body of confidential and proprietary information. All of such confidential and proprietary information now existing or to be developed in the future will be referred to in this Agreement as “Confidential Information”. Confidential Information will be interpreted as broadly as possible to include all information of any sort (whether merely remembered or embodied in a tangible or intangible form) that is (1) related to Parent’s or its Subsidiaries’ or Affiliates’ current or potential business and (2) is not generally or publicly known. Confidential Information includes, without specific limitation, the information, observations and data obtained by Executive during the course of his performance with Parent and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (including the Company) concerning the business and affairs of Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, information concerning acquisition opportunities in or reasonably related to the Parent’s or its Subsidiaries’ or Affiliates’ business or industry of which Executive has become or becomes aware during his employment, the persons or entities that are current, former or prospective suppliers or customers of any one or more of them during Executive’s course of performance, as well as development, transition and transformation plans, methodologies and methods of doing business, strategic, marketing and expansion plans, including plans regarding planned and potential sales, financial and business plans, employee lists and telephone numbers, locations of sales representatives, new and existing programs and services, prices and terms, customer service, integration processes, requirements and costs of providing service, support and equipment. Therefore, Executive agrees that during his employment and thereafter she shall not disclose to any unauthorized person or use for his own account any of such Confidential Information without the Board’s prior written consent, unless and to the extent that any Confidential Information (i) becomes generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of Executive’s acts or omissions to act; or (ii) is required to be disclosed pursuant to any applicable law or court order. Executive agrees to deliver to the Company at the end of the Employment Period, or at any other time the Company may request in writing, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and other documents (and copies thereof) relating to the business of Parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (including, without limitation, all Confidential Information) that she may then possess or have under his control.

(b)During the Employment Period, Executive shall not use or disclose any confidential information, including trade secrets, if any, of any former employers or any other person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality, and shall not bring onto the premises of Parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or any other Person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by the former employer or Person. Executive shall use in the performance of his duties only information that is (1) generally known and used by persons with training and experience comparable to Executive’s and that is (i) common knowledge in the industry or (ii) is otherwise legally in the public domain; (2) otherwise

5

provided or developed by Parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates; or (3) in the case of materials, property or information belonging to any former employer or other Person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality, approved for such use in writing by such former employer or Person. If at any time during the Employment Period, Executive believes she is being asked to engage in work that will, or will be likely to, jeopardize any confidentiality or other obligations Executive may have to former employers, Executive shall immediately advise the Board so that Executive’s duties can be modified appropriately.

(c)Executive represents and warrants to the Parent and its Subsidiaries that Executive took nothing with his that belonged to any former employer when Executive left his position(s) with such employer(s) that Executive was not authorized to take and that Executive has nothing that contains any confidential information that belongs to any former employer. If at any time Executive discovers that this representation is incorrect, Executive shall promptly return any such materials to Executive’s former employer(s). Parent and its Subsidiaries do not want any such materials, and Executive shall not be permitted to use or refer to any such materials in the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder.

(d)Executive understands that Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates will receive from third parties confidential or proprietary information (“Third Party Information”) subject to a duty on Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ and Affiliates’ part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. During the Employment Period and thereafter, and without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 5(a) above, Executive will hold Third Party Information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than personnel of Parent or its Subsidiaries and Affiliates who need to know such information in connection with their work for Parent or such Subsidiaries and Affiliates) or use, except in connection with his work for Parent or its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, Third Party Information unless expressly authorized by a member of the Board in writing.

(e)Under the federal Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Executive shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (1) 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 (2) is made to Executive’s attorney in relation to a lawsuit for retaliation against the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law; or (3) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Further, nothing in this Agreement prevents Executive from providing, without prior notice to the Company or its Affiliates, information to governmental authorities regarding possible legal violations or otherwise testifying or participating in any investigation or proceeding by any governmental authorities regarding possible legal violations.

6.Intellectual Property, Inventions and Patents. Executive acknowledges that all discoveries, concepts, ideas, inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses, drawings, reports, patent applications, copyrightable work and mask work (whether or not including any confidential information) and all registrations or applications related thereto, all other proprietary information and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable) that relate to Parent’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ actual or anticipated business, research and development or existing or future products or services and that are conceived, developed or made by Executive (whether alone or jointly with others) while employed by the Company and its Subsidiaries, whether before or after the date of this Agreement (“Work Product”), belong to Parent, the Company or such Subsidiary. At the Company’s expense, Executive shall perform all actions reasonably requested by the Board (whether during or after the Employment Period) to establish and confirm such ownership (including, without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of attorney and other instruments).

6

7.Non-Compete; Non-Solicitation.

(a)In further consideration of the compensation and benefits to be paid to Executive hereunder, Executive acknowledges that during the course of his employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries, she has and shall become familiar with Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ and Affiliates’ corporate strategy, pricing and other market information, know-how, trade secrets and valuable customer, supplier and employee relationships, and with other Confidential Information concerning Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, and that his services have been and shall be of special, unique and extraordinary value to Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates. Accordingly, Executive agrees that, during the Employment Period and for one (1) year thereafter (the “Non-compete Period”), if the termination of Executive’s employment is voluntary or for “Cause” (as defined above), she shall not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Company, serve in a capacity similar to the position(s) held by Executive with the Company in the last two (2) years of Executive’s employment by the Company, and in a geographic area to which Executive was assigned, in which Executive provided services or had a material presence or influence, or for which Executive was directly or indirectly responsible, during the last two (2) years of his employment by the Company, own any interest in, manage, control, participate in, consult with, render services for, or in any manner engage in any Competing Business that conducts operations or sales in such U.S. states, or such countries outside the United States, as Parent and its Subsidiaries conduct sales or operations as of the date of termination of the Employment Period. Nothing herein shall prohibit Executive from being a passive owner of not more than 2% of the outstanding stock of any class of a publicly-traded corporation, so long as Executive has no active participation in the business of such corporation. For purpose of this Agreement, “Competing Business” shall mean any business engaged (whether directly or indirectly) in the design, manufacture, marketing, or sale of products or services competitive with those designed, manufactured, marketed or sold by the Parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive has received sufficient mutually agreed-upon consideration for agreeing to be bound by the obligations in this Section, specifically the salary, benefits and the potential to receive severance set forth in Section 4(b) above. The restrictions in this Section do not become effective until the 11th business day after this Agreement is executed by Executive.

(b)During the Non-compete Period, Executive shall not directly or indirectly through another person or entity (1) induce or attempt to induce any employee of Parent or any Subsidiary to leave the employ of Parent or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between Parent or any Subsidiary and any employee thereof; (2) knowingly hire any person who was an employee of Parent or any Subsidiary at any time during the twelve (12) months prior to the termination of Executive’s employment; or (3) induce or encourage, or attempt to induce, encourage or solicit, any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor or other business relation of Parent or any Subsidiary to cease doing business with Parent or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee, licensor or business relation and Parent or any Subsidiary (including, without limitation, making any negative or disparaging statements or communications regarding Parent or its Subsidiaries); provided that, in each case, this Section 7(b) shall only apply if Executive shall have done business with, or had direct or indirect supervisory or other responsibility for, the employee, customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, or business relation to which the applicable clause of this Section 7(b) applies.

(c)If, at the time of enforcement of this Section 7, a court shall hold that the duration, scope or area restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties agree that the maximum duration, scope or area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and that the court shall be allowed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period, scope and area

7

permitted by law. Executive acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 7 are reasonable and that she has reviewed the provisions of this Agreement with his legal counsel.

(d)Executive acknowledges that any breach or threatened breach of the provisions of this Section 7 would cause Parent and its Subsidiaries irreparable harm. Accordingly, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in its favor, the Company shall be entitled to specific performance and/or injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). Further, in the event of an alleged breach or violation by Executive of this Section 7, the Non-compete Period shall be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured.

8.Executive’s Representations. Executive hereby represents and warrants to the Company that (a) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Executive do not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which Executive is a party or by which she is bound; (b) Executive is not a party to or bound by any employment agreement, non-compete agreement or confidentiality agreement with any other person or entity; and (c) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, this Agreement shall be the valid and binding obligation of Executive, enforceable in accordance with its terms. Executive hereby acknowledges and represents that she has consulted with independent legal counsel regarding his rights and obligations under this Agreement and that she fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein.

10.Survival. Sections 4 through 24 (other than Section 22) shall survive and continue in full force in accordance with their terms notwithstanding the termination of the Employment Period.

14.No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any party.

15.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts (including by means of facsimile), each of which is deemed to be an original and all of which taken together constitute one and the same agreement.

16.Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and any successor to the Company, including, without limitation, any Persons acquiring directly or indirectly all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company whether by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise (and such successor shall thereafter be deemed the “Company” for the purposes of this Agreement), but will not otherwise be assignable, transferable or delegable by the Company other than to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees and legatees, but otherwise will not otherwise be assignable, transferable or delegable by Executive. This Agreement is personal in nature and neither of the parties hereto shall, without the consent of the other, assign, transfer or delegate this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 16.

17.Choice of Law.

19.Insurance. The Company may, at its discretion, apply for and procure in its own name and for its own benefit life and/or disability insurance on Executive in any amount or amounts considered advisable. Executive agrees to cooperate in any medical or other examination, supply any information and execute and deliver any applications or other instruments in writing as may be reasonably necessary to obtain and constitute such insurance.

20.Tax Matters; Code Section 409A.

(a)The Company and its respective Subsidiaries shall be entitled to deduct or withhold from any amounts owing from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to Executive any federal, state, local or foreign withholding taxes, excise tax, or employment taxes (“Taxes”) imposed with respect to Executive’s compensation or other payments from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Executive’s ownership interest in Parent (including, without limitation, wages, bonuses, dividends, the receipt or exercise of equity options and/or the receipt or vesting of restricted equity). In the event the Company or any of its Subsidiaries does not make such deductions or withholdings, Executive shall indemnify the Company and its Subsidiaries for any amounts paid with respect to any such Taxes, together (if such failure to withhold was at the written direction of Executive) with any interest, penalties and related expenses thereto. The Company does not guarantee any particular tax result to Executive with respect to any payments or benefits provided hereunder.

(b)The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code Section 409A”) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. In no event whatsoever shall the Company, or Parent or any of their Subsidiaries be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on Executive by Code Section 409A or damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A.

(c)A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided until the date which is the earlier of (1) the first business day following the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of such “separation from service” of Executive, and (2) the date of Executive’s death, to the extent required under Code Section 409A. Upon the expiration of the foregoing delay period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 19(c)(whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to Executive in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.

(d)To the extent that reimbursements or other in-kind benefits under this Agreement constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, (1) all such expenses or other reimbursements hereunder shall be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by Executive; (2) any right to such reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit; and (3) no such reimbursement, expenses eligible for

10

reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year.

(e)For purposes of Code Section 409A, Executive’s right to receive any payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments.

(f)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any payment under this Agreement that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A be subject to offset by any other amount unless otherwise permitted by Code Section 409A.

21.Waiver of Jury Trial. AS A SPECIFICALLY BARGAINED FOR INDUCEMENT FOR EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT (AFTER HAVING THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH COUNSEL), EACH PARTY HERETO EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LAWSUIT OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO OR ARISING IN ANY WAY FROM THIS AGREEMENT OR THE MATTERS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

22.Corporate Opportunity. During the Employment Period, Executive shall submit to the Board all business, commercial and investment opportunities or offers presented to Executive, or of which Executive becomes aware, at any time during the Employment Period, which opportunities relate to the business of designing, manufacturing, marketing, or selling products or services competitive with those designed, manufactured, marketed or sold by the Parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (“Corporate Opportunities”). During the Employment Period, unless approved by the Board, Executive shall not accept or pursue, directly or indirectly, any Corporate Opportunities on Executive’s own behalf.

23.Executive’s Cooperation. During the Employment Period and thereafter, Executive shall reasonably cooperate with Parent and its Subsidiaries in any internal investigation or administrative, regulatory or judicial proceeding as reasonably requested by Parent or any Subsidiary (including, without limitation, Executive being available to Parent and its Subsidiaries upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations, appearing at Parent’s or any Subsidiary’s request to give truthful and accurate testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, volunteering to Parent and its Subsidiaries all pertinent information and turning over to Parent and its Subsidiaries all relevant documents which are or may come into Executive’s possession, all at times and on schedules that are reasonably consistent with Executive’s other permitted activities and commitments). In the event Parent or any Subsidiary requires Executive’s cooperation in accordance with this Section 23, Parent shall pay Executive a per diem reasonably determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee and reimburse Executive for reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith (including lodging and meals, upon submission of receipts).

24.Nondisparagement. Executive agrees not to, except as may be required by law, directly or indirectly, publicly or privately, make, publish or solicit, or encourage others to make, publish or solicit, any disparaging statements, comments, announcements, or remarks concerning Parent or its Affiliates, or any of their respective past and present directors, officers or employees. Parent and its Affiliates agree not to, except as may be required by law, directly or indirectly, publicly or privately, make, publish or solicit, or encourage others to make, publish or solicit, any disparaging statements, comments, announcements or remarks concerning Executive or his employment with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(a)The Employment Period shall end on the first anniversary of the Effective Date, but shall automatically be renewed on the same terms and conditions set forth herein (as may be modified from time to time in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) for additional one year periods beginning on the first anniversary of the Effective Date and on each successive anniversary of the Effective Date, unless the Company or Executive gives the other

2

party written notice of the election not to renew the Employment Period at least 90 days prior to any such renewal date; provided that, the Employment Period shall terminate immediately upon Executive’s resignation (with or without Good Reason, as defined below), death or Disability (as defined below) or upon the Company’s termination of Executive’s employment (whether with Cause (as defined below) or without Cause).

(b)If the Employment Period is terminated (1) by the Company without Cause (other than as a result of Executive’s Disability) or (2) upon Executive’s resignation with Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled to: (i) her Base Salary through the date of termination; (ii) any Annual Bonus amounts to which Executive is entitled for years that ended on or prior to the date of termination in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 3(c) (including the requirement that Executive remain employed by the Parent or its Subsidiaries through April 1 of the fiscal year following the fiscal year to which such Annual Bonus relates); (iii) an amount equal to one year of Executive’s then current Base Salary plus an amount equal to the average of the Annual Bonuses paid to Executive for the two completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date of the termination of Executive’s employment; and (iv) running concurrently with (and counting toward) her COBRA period, continued participation throughout the Severance Period (as defined below) in all health and dental benefit plans in which Executive was entitled to participate immediately prior to the termination of Executive’s employment (or the Company shall arrange to make available to Executive benefits substantially similar to those which Executive would otherwise have been entitled to receive over such period if Executive’s employment had not been terminated) on the same terms and conditions (including the amount of employee contributions toward premium payments but not guaranteeing any particular tax result to Executive of such continued benefits) under which Executive was entitled to participate immediately prior to her termination. Any stock options, RSUs or other equity awards granted to Executive shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Management Equity Plans and such awards. The amounts and benefits described in clauses (iii) and (iv) of this Section 4(b) will be paid if and only if Executive has executed and delivered to the Company a separation agreement with a general release to be provided by the Company in connection with Executive’s termination, and such release has become effective and no longer subject to revocation not later than sixty (60) days following the date of termination (the “General Release”) and only if Executive does not breach the provisions of Sections 5 through 7 hereof. The amounts payable pursuant to clause (iii) of this Section 4(b) shall be payable in regular installments over the twelve (12)-month period following the date of termination (the “Severance Period”) in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices as in effect on the date of termination, but in no event less frequently than monthly; provided that no amounts shall be paid until the first scheduled payment date following the date the General Release is executed and no longer subject to revocation, with the first such payment being in an amount equal to the total amount to which Executive would otherwise have been entitled during the period following the date of termination through such payment date if such deferral had not been required. The amounts and benefits described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 4(b) shall be paid to Executive in a lump sum in cash within thirty (30) days of the applicable date of termination.

(c)If the Employment Period is terminated (1) by the Company with Cause, (2) due to Executive’s death or Disability or (3) by Executive’s resignation without Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled to receive (i) her Base Salary through the date of termination and (ii) any Annual Bonus amounts to which Executive is entitled determined by reference to years that ended on or prior to the date of termination in accordance with the terms set forth in Section 3(c) (including the requirement that Executive remain employed by the Parent or its Subsidiaries through April 1 of the fiscal year following the fiscal year to which such Annual Bonus relates). The amounts and benefits described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 4(c) shall be paid to Executive or, in the event of death, Executive’s estate or beneficiaries, in a lump sum in cash within thirty (30) days of the applicable date of termination.

3

(d)Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Executive shall not be entitled to any other salary, bonuses, employee benefits or compensation from the Company or its Subsidiaries after the termination of the Employment Period and all of Executive’s rights to salary, bonuses, employee benefits and other compensation hereunder which would have accrued or become payable after the termination of the Employment Period (other than vested retirement benefits accrued on or prior to the termination of the Employment Period in accordance with the terms of the applicable retirement plan or other amounts owing hereunder as of the date of such termination that have not yet been paid) shall cease upon such termination, other than those expressly required under applicable law (such as COBRA) or as provided under an applicable Management Equity Plan.

(e)Executive is under no obligation to mitigate damages or the amount of any payment provided for hereunder by seeking other employment or otherwise, and the Company shall have no right of offset for any amounts received by Executive from other employment; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Executive’s coverage under the Company’s health and dental benefit plans will terminate when Executive becomes eligible under any employee benefit plan made available by another employer covering health and dental benefits. Executive shall notify the Company within thirty (30) days after becoming eligible for any such benefits.

(f)Subject to applicable law, the Company may offset any amounts Executive owes Parent and its Subsidiaries against any amounts Parent and its Subsidiaries owe Executive hereunder.

(g)For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean, with respect to Executive, one or more of the following: (1) the indictment for a felony or other crime involving moral turpitude or the commission of any other act or any omission to act involving fraud with respect to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their customers or suppliers; (2) any act or any omission to act involving dishonesty or disloyalty that causes, or in the good faith judgment of the Board would be reasonably likely to cause, material harm (including reputational harm) to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their customers or suppliers; (3) any (i) repeated abuse of alcohol or (ii) abuse of controlled substances, in either case, that adversely affects Executive’s work performance (and, in the case of clause (i), continues to occur at any time more than thirty (30) days after Executive has been given written notice thereof) or brings Parent or its Subsidiaries into public disgrace or disrepute; (4) the failure by Executive to substantially perform duties as reasonably directed by the Board, which non-performance remains uncured for ten (10) days after written notice thereof is given to Executive; (5) willful misconduct with respect to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, which misconducts causes, or in the good faith judgment of the Board would be reasonably likely to cause, material harm (including reputational harm) to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries; (6) the failure of Executive to cooperate in any audit or investigation of the business or financial practices of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries; or (7) any breach by Executive of Sections 5 through 7 of this Agreement or any other material breach of this Agreement or the Management Equity Plans (as defined below).

(h)Executive will be “Disabled” only if, as a result of her incapacity due to physical or mental illness, Executive is considered disabled under the Company’s long-term disability insurance plans.

(i)For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean if Executive resigns from employment with the Company and, if applicable, its Subsidiaries prior to the end of the Employment Period as a result of one or more of the following reasons: (1) any reduction in Executive’s Base Salary or Annual Bonus opportunity, without Executive’s prior consent, in either case other than any reduction which (i) is generally applicable to senior leadership team executives of the Company and (ii) does not exceed 15% of Executive’s Base Salary and Annual

4

Bonus opportunity in the aggregate; (2) any material breach by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries of any agreement between such Persons and Executive; or (3) a change in Executive’s principal office without Executive’s prior consent to a location that is more than fifty (50) miles from Executive’s principal office on the date hereof; provided that, in order for Executive’s resignation with Good Reason to be effective hereunder, Executive must provide written notice to the Company of the event constituting Good Reason within thirty (30) days of the initial occurrence of such event, the Company shall have thirty (30) days after delivery of such written notice to cure such event to Executive’s reasonable satisfaction, and Executive’s resignation with Good Reason must be effective within thirty (30) days following the end of the Company’s cure period.

(j)For purposes of this Agreement, “Management Equity Plans” shall mean the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan of Parent, including any amendments thereto, together with any other incentive equity plan of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries under which Executive may have in the past received, or may in the future receive any equity or equitybased award, along with any Award Agreements (as defined therein) and any attachments thereto, as amended from time to time.

5.Confidential Information.

(a)Executive acknowledges that the continued success of Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, depends upon the use and protection of a large body of confidential and proprietary information. All of such confidential and proprietary information now existing or to be developed in the future will be referred to in this Agreement as “Confidential Information”. Confidential Information will be interpreted as broadly as possible to include all information of any sort (whether merely remembered or embodied in a tangible or intangible form) that is related to Parent’s or its Subsidiaries’ or Affiliates’ current or potential business and (2) is not generally or publicly known. Confidential Information includes, without specific limitation, the information, observations and data obtained by Executive during the course of her performance with Parent and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (including the Company) concerning the business and affairs of Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, information concerning acquisition opportunities in or reasonably related to the Parent’s or its Subsidiaries’ or Affiliates’ business or industry of which Executive has become or becomes aware during her employment, the persons or entities that are current, former or prospective suppliers or customers of any one or more of them during Executive’s course of performance, as well as development, transition and transformation plans, methodologies and methods of doing business, strategic, marketing and expansion plans, including plans regarding planned and potential sales, financial and business plans, employee lists and telephone numbers, locations of sales representatives, new and existing programs and services, prices and terms, customer service, integration processes, requirements and costs of providing service, support and equipment. Therefore, Executive agrees that during her employment and thereafter he shall not disclose to any unauthorized person or use for her own account any of such Confidential Information without the Board’s prior written consent, unless and to the extent that any Confidential Information (i) becomes generally known to and available for use by the public other than as a result of Executive’s acts or omissions to act; or (ii) is required to be disclosed pursuant to any applicable law or court order. Executive agrees to deliver to the Company at the end of the Employment Period, or at any other time the Company may request in writing, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and other documents (and copies thereof) relating to the business of Parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (including, without limitation, all Confidential Information) that he may then possess or have under her control.

(b)During the Employment Period, Executive shall not use or disclose any confidential information, including trade secrets, if any, of any former employers or any other person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality, and shall not bring onto the

5

premises of Parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or any other Person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by the former employer or Person. Executive shall use in the performance of her duties only information that is (1) generally known and used by persons with training and experience comparable to Executive’s and that is (i) common knowledge in the industry or (ii) is otherwise legally in the public domain; (2) otherwise provided or developed by Parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates; or (3) in the case of materials, property or information belonging to any former employer or other Person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality, approved for such use in writing by such former employer or Person. If at any time during the Employment Period, Executive believes he is being asked to engage in work that will, or will be likely to, jeopardize any confidentiality or other obligations Executive may have to former employers, Executive shall immediately advise the Board so that Executive’s duties can be modified appropriately.

(c)Executive represents and warrants to the Parent and its Subsidiaries that Executive took nothing with her that belonged to any former employer when Executive left her position(s) with such employer(s) that Executive was not authorized to take and that Executive has nothing that contains any confidential information that belongs to any former employer. If at any time Executive discovers that this representation is incorrect, Executive shall promptly return any such materials to Executive’s former employer(s). Parent and its Subsidiaries do not want any such materials, and Executive shall not be permitted to use or refer to any such materials in the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder.

(d)Executive understands that Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates will receive from third parties confidential or proprietary information (“Third Party Information”) subject to a duty on Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ and Affiliates’ part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. During the Employment Period and thereafter, and without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 5(a) above, Executive will hold Third Party Information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than personnel of Parent or its Subsidiaries and Affiliates who need to know such information in connection with their work for Parent or such Subsidiaries and Affiliates) or use, except in connection with her work for Parent or its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, Third Party Information unless expressly authorized by a member of the Board in writing.

(e)Under the federal Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Executive shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (1) 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 (2) is made to Executive’s attorney in relation to a lawsuit for retaliation against the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law; or (3) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Further, nothing in this Agreement prevents Executive from providing, without prior notice to the Company or its Affiliates, information to governmental authorities regarding possible legal violations or otherwise testifying or participating in any investigation or proceeding by any governmental authorities regarding possible legal violations.

6.Intellectual Property, Inventions and Patents. Executive acknowledges that all discoveries, concepts, ideas, inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods, designs, analyses, drawings, reports, patent applications, copyrightable work and mask work (whether or not including any confidential information) and all registrations or applications related thereto, all other proprietary information and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable) that relate to Parent’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ actual or anticipated business, research and development or existing or future products or services and that are conceived, developed or made by Executive (whether alone or jointly with others) while employed by the

6

Company and its Subsidiaries, whether before or after the date of this Agreement (“Work Product”), belong to Parent, the Company or such Subsidiary. At the Company’s expense, Executive shall perform all actions reasonably requested by the Board (whether during or after the Employment Period) to establish and confirm such ownership (including, without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of attorney and other instruments).

7.Non-Compete; Non-Solicitation.

(a)In further consideration of the increased compensation and benefits to be paid to Executive hereunder, Executive acknowledges that during the course of her employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries, he has and shall become familiar with Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ and Affiliates’ corporate strategy, pricing and other market information, know-how, trade secrets and valuable customer, supplier and employee relationships, and with other Confidential Information concerning Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates, and that her services have been and shall be of special, unique and extraordinary value to Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates. Accordingly, and in consideration for receiving the salary increase in connection with this Agreement and the potential severance benefits set forth in Section 4(b) above, Executive agrees that, during the Employment Period and for one (1) year thereafter (the “Non-compete Period”), if the termination of Executive’s employment is voluntary or for “Cause” (as defined above), he shall not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Company, in a capacity similar to the position(s) held by Executive with the Company in the last two (2) years of Executive’s employment by the Company, and in a geographic area to which Executive was assigned, in which Executive provided services or had a material presence or influence, or for which Executive was directly or indirectly responsible, during the last two (2) years of her employment by the Company, own any interest in, manage, control, participate in, consult with, render services for, or in any manner engage in any Competing Business that conducts operations or sales in such U.S. states, or such countries outside the United States, as Parent and its Subsidiaries conduct sales or operations as of the date of termination of the Employment Period. Nothing herein shall prohibit Executive from being a passive owner of not more than 2% of the outstanding stock of any class of a publicly-traded corporation, so long as Executive has no active participation in the business of such corporation. For purpose of this Agreement, “Competing Business” shall mean any business engaged (whether directly or indirectly) in the design, manufacture, marketing, or sale of products or services competitive with those designed, manufactured, marketed or sold by the Parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive has received sufficient mutually agreed-upon consideration for agreeing to be bound by the obligations in this Section, specifically the salary increase and the potential to receive severance set forth in Section 4(b) above. The restrictions in this Section do not become effective until the 11th business day after this Agreement is executed by Executive.

(b)During the Non-compete Period, Executive shall not directly or indirectly through another person or entity (1) induce or attempt to induce any employee of Parent or any Subsidiary to leave the employ of Parent or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between Parent or any Subsidiary and any employee thereof; (2) knowingly hire any person who was an employee of Parent or any Subsidiary at any time during the twelve (12) months prior to the termination of Executive’s employment; or (3) induce or encourage, or attempt to induce, encourage or solicit, any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor or other business relation of Parent or any Subsidiary to cease doing business with Parent or such Subsidiary, or in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee, licensor or business relation and Parent or any Subsidiary (including, without limitation, making any negative or disparaging statements or communications regarding Parent or its Subsidiaries); provided that, in each case, this Section 7(b) shall only apply if Executive shall have done business with, or had direct or indirect supervisory or other responsibility for, the

7

employee, customer, supplier, licensee, licensor, or business relation to which the applicable clause of this Section 7(b) applies.

(c)If, at the time of enforcement of this Section 7, a court shall hold that the duration, scope or area restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties agree that the maximum duration, scope or area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and that the court shall be allowed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period, scope and area permitted by law. Executive acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 7 are reasonable and that he has reviewed the provisions of this Agreement with her legal counsel.

(d)Executive acknowledges that any breach or threatened breach of the prov1s1ons of this Section 7 would cause Parent and its Subsidiaries irreparable harm. Accordingly, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in its favor, the Company shall be entitled to specific performance and/or injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). Further, in the event of an alleged breach or violation by Executive of this Section 7, the Non-compete Period shall be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured.

8.Executive’s Representations. Executive hereby represents and warrants to the Company that (a) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Executive do not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which Executive is a party or by which he is bound; (b) Executive is not a party to or bound by any employment agreement, non-compete agreement or confidentiality agreement with any other person or entity; and (c) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company, this Agreement shall be the valid and binding obligation of Executive, enforceable in accordance with its terms. Executive hereby acknowledges and represents that he has consulted with independent legal counsel regarding her rights and obligations under this Agreement and that he fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein.

9.Recoupment Policy. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Executive acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement and any compensation described herein are subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s recoupment policy (if any) as may be in effect from time to time, including specifically to implement Section 10D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and any applicable rules or regulations promulgated thereunder (including applicable rules and regulations of any national securities exchange on which the shares of the Company’s common stock may be traded) (the “Claw-back Policy”), and that applicable sections of this Agreement and any related documents shall be deemed superseded by and subject to the terms and conditions of the Claw-back Policy from and after the effective date thereof.

10.Survival. Sections 4 through 24 (other than Section 22) shall survive and continue in full force in accordance with their terms notwithstanding the termination of the Employment Period.

12.Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or any action in any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

13.Complete Agreement.

15.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts (including by means of facsimile), each of which is deemed to be an original and all of which taken together constitute one and the same agreement.

16.Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and any successor to the Company, including, without limitation, any Persons acquiring directly or indirectly all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company whether by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise (and such successor shall thereafter be deemed the “Company” for the purposes of this Agreement), but will not otherwise be assignable, transferable or delegable by the Company other than to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees and legatees, but otherwise will not otherwise be assignable, transferable or delegable by Executive. This Agreement is personal in nature and neither of the parties hereto shall, without the consent of the other, assign, transfer or delegate this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 16.

17.Choice of Law. All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.

18.Amendment and Waiver. The provisions of this Agreement may be amended or waived only with the prior written consent of the Company (as approved by the Board or the

9

Compensation Committee of the Board as appropriate) and Executive, and no course of conduct or course of dealing or failure or delay by any party hereto in enforcing or exercising any of the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Company’s right to terminate the Employment Period with Cause or, except as otherwise stated herein, Executive’s right to terminate the Employment Agreement with Good Reason) shall affect the validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Agreement or be deemed to be an implied waiver of any provision of this Agreement.

19.Insurance. The Company may, at its discretion, apply for and procure in its own name and for its own benefit life and/or disability insurance on Executive in any amount or amounts considered advisable. Executive agrees to cooperate in any medical or other examination, supply any information and execute and deliver any applications or other instruments in writing as may be reasonably necessary to obtain and constitute such insurance.

20.Tax Matters; Code Section 409A.

(a)The Company and its respective Subsidiaries shall be entitled to deduct or withhold from any amounts owing from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to Executive any federal, state, local or foreign withholding taxes, excise tax, or employment taxes (“Taxes”) imposed with respect to Executive’s compensation or other payments from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Executive’s ownership interest in Parent (including, without limitation, wages, bonuses, dividends, the receipt or exercise of equity options and/or the receipt or vesting of restricted equity). In the event the Company or any of its Subsidiaries does not make such deductions or withholdings, Executive shall indemnify the Company and its Subsidiaries for any amounts paid with respect to any such Taxes, together (if such failure to withhold was at the written direction of Executive) with any interest, penalties and related expenses thereto. The Company does not guarantee any particular tax result to Executive with respect to any payments or benefits provided hereunder.

(b)The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code Section 409A”) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. In no event whatsoever shall the Company, or Parent or any of their Subsidiaries be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty that may be imposed on Executive by Code Section 409A or damages for failing to comply with Code Section 409A.

(c)A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of any amounts or benefits upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided until the date which is the earlier of (1) the first business day following the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of such “separation from service” of Executive, and the date of Executive’s death, to the extent required under Code Section 409A. Upon the expiration of the foregoing delay period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 19(c) (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to

10

Executive in a lump sum, and any remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein.

(d)To the extent that reimbursements or other in-kind benefits under this Agreement constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A, (1) all such expenses or other reimbursements hereunder shall be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by Executive; (2) any right to such reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit; and (3) no such reimbursement, expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year.

(e)For purposes of Code Section 409A, Executive’s right to receive any payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments.

(f)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any payment under this Agreement that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Code Section 409A be subject to offset by any other amount unless otherwise permitted by Code Section 409A.

21.Waiver of Jury Trial. AS A SPECIFICALLY BARGAINED FOR INDUCEMENT FOR EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT (AFTER HAVING THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH COUNSEL), EACH PARTY HERETO EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LAWSUIT OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO OR ARISING IN ANYWAY FROM THIS AGREEMENT OR THE MATTERS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

22.Corporate Opportunity. During the Employment Period, Executive shall submit to the Board all business, commercial and investment opportunities or offers presented to Executive, or of which Executive becomes aware, at any time during the Employment Period, which opportunities relate to the business of designing, manufacturing, marketing, or selling products or services competitive with those designed, manufactured, marketed or sold by the Parent or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (“Corporate Opportunities”). During the Employment Period, unless approved by the Board, Executive shall not accept or pursue, directly or indirectly, any Corporate Opportunities on Executive’s own behalf.

23.Executive’s Cooperation. During the Employment Period and thereafter, Executive shall reasonably cooperate with Parent and its Subsidiaries in any internal investigation or administrative, regulatory or judicial proceeding as reasonably requested by Parent or any Subsidiary (including, without limitation, Executive being available to Parent and its Subsidiaries upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations, appearing at Parent’s or any Subsidiary’s request to give truthful and accurate testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, volunteering to Parent and its Subsidiaries all pertinent information and turning over to Parent and its Subsidiaries all relevant documents which are or may come into Executive’s possession, all at times and on schedules that are reasonably consistent with Executive’s other permitted activities and commitments). In the event Parent or any Subsidiary requires Executive’s cooperation in accordance with this Section 23, Parent shall pay Executive a per diem reasonably determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee and reimburse Executive for reasonable expenses incurred in connection therewith (including lodging and meals, upon submission of receipts).

11

24.Nondisparagement. Executive agrees not to, except as may be required by law, directly or indirectly, publicly or privately, make, publish or solicit, or encourage others to make, publish or solicit, any disparaging statements, comments, announcements, or remarks concerning Parent or its Affiliates, or any of their respective past and present directors, officers or employees. Parent and its Affiliates agree not to, except as may be required by law, directly or indirectly, publicly or privately, make, publish or solicit, or encourage others to make, publish or solicit, any disparaging statements, comments, announcements or remarks concerning Executive or her employment with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

4.Vesting on Termination of Employment, Death, Disability, Retirement and Change in Control.

a.General. Unless otherwise provided in this Section 4, any unvested PRSUs shall be forfeited immediately upon the date that Participant terminates his or her service with the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate or otherwise ceases to be a Participant Eligible to Vest (“Termination Date”). Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or determined by the Committee or its designee, Participant’s right to vest in the PRSUs under the Plan, if any, will terminate as of such Termination Date and will not be extended by any notice period.

b.Participant’s Death. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, if a Participant dies while providing service to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, the PRSUs shall immediately vest based on the banked amounts for those Performance Year(s) completed and vest at Target for any uncompleted Performance Year. The vested portion of the PRSUs shall be delivered to the executor or administrator of Participant’s estate or, if none, to the person(s) entitled to receive the vested PRSUs under Participant’s will or the laws of descent or distribution, and the unvested portion of the PRSUs shall be forfeited.

c.Participant’s Disability. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, if a Participant terminates service from the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate due to Disability, the PRSUs shall vest in full based on the banked amounts for those Performance Year(s) completed and vest at Target for any uncompleted Performance Year. “Disability” shall mean that the Participant, due to physical or mental illness, is considered disabled under the Company’s long-term disability insurance plan.

d.Participant’s Retirement. If the Participant’s status as an employee of the Company any Subsidiary or Affiliate terminates by reason of a Covered Retirement, as defined below, the PRSUs shall immediately vest based on the banked amounts for those Performance Year(s) completed prior to the Participant’s date of retirement plus the pro-rata of the Target for any uncompleted Performance Year (number of days employed during the Performance Year divided 365 multiplied by the Target for the uncompleted Performance Year). For purposes hereof, a “Covered Retirement” is the voluntary termination of a Retirement Eligible Individual who has provided the Company not less than six months prior notice of such employee’s intent to retire from the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate; provided, however, the Compensation Committee may waive the six-month notice period or allow an earlier retirement date with the consent of the Participant. A “Retirement Eligible Individual” means an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate who has attained at least 55 years of age and who has a combined age and years of credited employment service with the

3

Company and/or all Affiliates of 65 years. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the definition of a Covered Retirement shall not include any retirement of service that occurs prior to the first Vesting Date.

e.Qualifying Termination. Upon a Qualifying Termination, unvested PRSUs that otherwise would have vested within six months of the Participant’s Termination Date shall vest on the Participant’s Termination Date in full at the sum of the banked amounts for those Performance Year(s) completed (if any) plus Target for any uncompleted Performance Year(s). “Qualifying Termination” shall mean, with respect to the Participant, an involuntary termination of employment without Cause by the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate other than a termination by reason of death, Disability, Covered Retirement, or related to a Change-in-Control (and covered by Section 4(f) below). Cause as a reason for a Participant’s termination of employment as an employee shall have the meaning assigned such term in the employment agreement, if any, between such Participant and the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate; provided, however, that if there is no such employment agreement in which such term is defined, “Cause” shall mean (i) the Participant’s willful and continued failure to perform his or her duties with the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate (other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness, and specifically excluding any failure by the Participant, after reasonable efforts, to meet performance expectations), or (ii) the willful engaging by the Participant in illegal conduct, gross misconduct, or conduct in violation of Company policies. For purposes of this provision, no act or failure to act, on the part of the Participant, shall be considered “willful” unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Participant in bad faith or without reasonable belief that his or her action or omission was in the best interests of the Company.

f.Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control, the PRSUs will convert to time-based RSUs based on the greater of (i) the sum of the Target for each Performance Year or (ii) the sum of the banked amounts plus Target for uncompleted Performance Year(s). Vesting of the time-based RSUs will assume the vesting schedule of the original PRSU award. The time-based RSUs as so converted:

i.Will automatically accelerate and vest in full if within the 24-month period following the Change in Control, if the Participant is terminated by the Company or the continuing entity or any of its Affiliates without Cause;

ii.Will automatically accelerate and vest in full at the Change in Control if this Agreement is not assumed or replaced by the acquirer/continuing entity or replaced by other terms or awards deemed by the Compensation Committee to be appropriate; or

iii.Will vest on the third anniversary of the Grant Date, if vesting has not otherwise been accelerated as provided above.

5.Restrictive Covenants and Remedies. Participant agrees to the restrictive covenants contained in this Section 5 (the “Restrictive Covenants”) and agrees that the Restrictive Covenants and the remedies described herein are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Company. The Participant acknowledges the uncertainty of the law with respect to Restrictive Covenants and expressly stipulates that this Agreement is to be given the construction that renders its provisions valid and enforceable to the maximum extent (not exceeding its express terms) possible under applicable law.

a.Confidentiality. The Participant agrees, during their employment with the Company and thereafter, to maintain the confidentiality of the Company’s Confidential Information and to use such Confidential Information for the exclusive benefit of the Company. “Confidential Information” will be interpreted as broadly as possible to include all information of any sort (whether merely remembered or embodied in a tangible or intangible form) that is (1) related to Company’s or any Subsidiary’s or Affiliate’s current or potential business and (2) is not generally or publicly known.

b.Competing Activity. During the Participant’s employment with the Company or for one (1) year following the later of (i) termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company for any reason whatsoever or (ii) the last scheduled vesting date of this award, the Participant shall not compete, directly or indirectly, in any manner or capacity, with the Company. Competing activity shall include any business engaged (whether directly or indirectly) in the

4

design, manufacture, marketing, or sale of products or services competitive with those designed, manufactured, marketed, or sold by the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate.

c.Non-Solicitation of Employees. During the Participant’s employment with the Company or for two (2) years following the later of (i) termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company for any reason whatsoever or (ii) the last scheduled Vesting Date of this award, the Participant shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit or encourage any person who was an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate during Participant’s employment, to leave employment with the Company or in any way interfere adversely with the relationship between any such employee and the Company.

d.Non-Solicitation of Customers or Vendors. During the Participant’s employment with the Company or for two (2) years following the later of (i) termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company for any reason whatsoever or (ii) the last scheduled Vesting Date of this award, the Participant shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit or divert the business of the Company’s customers or vendors who were customers or vendors to the Company during Participant’s employment or in any way interfere adversely with the business relationship between any such customer or vendor and the Company.

e.Partial Invalidity. If any portion of this Section 5 is determined to be unenforceable in any respect, it shall be interpreted to be valid to the maximum extent for which it reasonably may be enforced. The Participant acknowledges the uncertainty of the law in this respect and expressly stipulate that this Award Agreement is to be given the construction that renders its provisions valid and enforceable to the maximum extent (not exceeding its express terms) possible under applicable law.

f.Remedy for Breach. The Participant agrees that a breach of any of the Restrictive Covenants would cause material and irreparable harm to the Company that would be difficult or impossible to measure, and that monetary damages for any such harm would, therefore, be an inadequate remedy. Accordingly, Participant agrees that if they breach any Restrictive Covenant, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to and without limitation upon all other remedies the Company may have under this Award Agreement, at law or otherwise, to obtain injunctive or other appropriate equitable relief.

g.Clawback. The Participant acknowledges that the award is subject to the Company’s clawback policy, as in effect from time to time. The Committee may, in accordance with the Plan and any applicable clawback policy and in its sole discretion, provide for cancellation of any or all of the Participant’s outstanding awards or forfeiture by the Participant of any gain realized in respect of awards, and repayment of any such gain promptly to the Company.

6.Non-Transferability. This Agreement or the rights hereunder may not be transferred.

7.No Dividends. Participant shall not be entitled to receive dividends or dividend equivalents with respect to the number of unvested Ordinary Shares covered by the PRSUs.

8.No Security Holder Rights. Participant shall have no rights as a security holder with respect to the unvested Ordinary Shares covered by the PRSUs.

9.Taxes. Participant acknowledges that the Company has the right to require Participant to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy his or her minimum federal, state, local and foreign withholding tax requirements, or to deduct from all payments under the Plan amounts sufficient to satisfy such minimum withholding tax requirements. Participant further acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all federal, state, local and foreign income taxes, social insurance, payroll tax, or other tax-related items related to the Participant’s participation in the Plan is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company. Participant authorizes the Company and/or its Subsidiaries, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the Participant’s tax obligations that must be withheld by the Company and/or its Subsidiaries by withholding in Ordinary Shares to be issued upon vesting of the PRSUs, or in the sole discretion of the Company, by any other appropriate method.

With respect to a Retirement Eligible Individual, the Company may, in its discretion, accelerate the vesting and settlement of a portion of the Units to the extent necessary to pay the Federal

5

Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) tax imposed under Sections 3101, 3121(a) and 3121(v)(2) of the Code and to pay the income tax at source on wages imposed under Section 3401 of the Code or the corresponding withholding provisions of applicable state, local or foreign tax laws as a result of the payment of the FICA tax, and to pay the additional income tax at source on wages attributable to the pyramiding section 3401 wages and taxes; provided that the total payment under this acceleration provision cannot exceed the aggregate of the FICA tax amount, and the income tax withholding related to such FICA amount (as permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(vi); and provided further that any Units vested and settled in accordance with this Section will reduce, share-for-share, that portion of the Award that would vest on the immediately following Vesting Date. Participant authorizes the Company and/or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the Participant’s tax obligations that must be withheld by the Company and/or any Subsidiary or Affiliate by withholding in Shares to be issued upon vesting of the Units, or in the sole discretion of the Company, by any other appropriate method. The Company shall delay the issuance of any Shares upon any Vesting Date to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code (relating to payments made to “specified employees” as a result of their separation from service) to the date that is six months and one day following the date of the Participant’s separation from service (or shorter period ending on the date of the Participant’s death following such separation).

10.Data Protection. Participant consents to the collection and processing of Personal data relating to the Participant so that the Company and its Affiliates can fulfill their obligations and exercise their rights under the Plan and generally administer and manage the Plan. “Personal data” shall include but may not be limited to, data about participation in the Plan and securities offered or received, purchased or sold under the Plan from time to time and other appropriate financial and other data (such as the date on which the PRSUs were granted, Participant’s name and address) about the Participant and his or her participation in the Plan. Participant accepts that the Personal data will be administered and processed by the Company or any other agent or person designated by the Company. Participant is entitled to request access to the data referring to the Participant and held by the Company and to request the amendment or deletion of such data. Participant also gives express consent to the Company to transfer and process his/her Personal data to the United States in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations of the United States even if the level of Personal data protection in the United States may be lower than in the Participant’s country. Participant acknowledges that he/she is free to withdraw his/her consent at any time.

For the purposes of compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679, Participant acknowledges that the Company will separately provide information on the collection, processing, and transfer of Personal Data.

11.Language. Participant acknowledges that the Plan and this Agreement are provided in English only and waives his/her right to translated Plan documentation.

12.Discretionary Nature of Benefit; No Right to Continued Employment; No Entitlement to Future Awards. Participant understands that under this Agreement, grants of PRSUs are made at the complete discretion of the Company pursuant to the Plan. The offer to participate in the Plan does not constitute an acquired right. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer on any Participant any right to continue in the employment of the Company or its Subsidiaries or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or its Subsidiaries to terminate such Participant’s employment at any time for any reason or to continue such Participant’s present (or any other) rate of compensation. The grant of the PRSUs under any award to any Participant is a one-time benefit and shall not create any rights in such Participant to any subsequent awards by the Company, no award hereunder shall be considered a condition of such Participant’s employment, and no profit with respect to an award shall be considered part of such Participant’s salary or compensation under any severance statute or other applicable law.

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (including by means of electronically signed or submitted signature pages), all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.

Agreement limits the Company’s right to seek immediate dismissal of such charge or complaint on the basis that Employee’s signing of this Agreement constitutes a full release of any individual rights under the Federal Discrimination Laws, or the Company’s right to seek restitution of the economic benefits provided to Employee under this Agreement (or other legal remedies) if Employee successfully challenges the validity of this Release and prevails in any claim under the Federal Discrimination Laws.

d.Nothing in this Agreement prohibits Employee from reporting possible violations of federal law or regulation to any governmental agency or regulatory authority (including but not limited to the Securities and Exchange Commission, U.S. Department of Labor, U.S. Department of Justice and/or the National Labor Relations Board), or from making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulation. However, Employee understands and agrees that he is waiving the right to any monetary recovery in connection with any complaint or charge that he may file with an administrative agency, except with respect to any monetary recovery under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

e.In signing this Agreement, Employee acknowledges that he intends that it shall be effective as a bar to each and every one of the Claims hereinabove mentioned or implied. Employee expressly consents that this Settlement and Release Agreement shall be given full force and effect according to each and all of its express terms and provisions, including those relating to unknown and unsuspected Claims (notwithstanding any state statute that expressly limits the effectiveness of a general release of unknown, unsuspected and unanticipated Claims), if any, as well as those relating to any other Claims hereinabove mentioned or implied. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the releases contained herein are an essential and material term of this Agreement and without such releases the Company would not have agreed to the Separation Payment provided for in this Agreement. Employee further agrees that in the event he brings his own Claim in which he seeks damages against the Company, or in the event Employee seeks to recover damages against the Company in any Claim brought by a governmental agency on his behalf, this Release shall serve as a complete defense to such Claims.

f.Employee acknowledges that he is receiving this Agreement on April 18, 2023, and he shall have twenty-one (21) days from receipt of the Agreement to consider and sign it (“Acceptance Period”). Employee also acknowledges that any changes or modifications to this Agreement do not restart or otherwise extend the Acceptance Period, unless such changes are material. Employee shall have seven (7) calendar days following execution of the Agreement to revoke the Agreement by giving written notice of such revocation to the Company’s Chief Administrative Officer, via e-mail, and such notice must be received by the Company no later than the seventh (7th) calendar day following Employee’s execution of this Agreement (if such day is a Saturday or Sunday, or a legal holiday then such notice must be received on the first day thereafter that is not a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday). Employee further acknowledges that if he does not sign this Agreement within twenty-one (21) days from his receipt of the Agreement, or, alternatively, if he signs this Agreement within twenty-one (21) days from receipt of the Agreement but subsequently revokes the Agreement no later than seven (7) calendar days following execution of the Agreement by giving timely notice (as described above) of such revocation, then Employee forfeits any and all rights to the Separation Payment under this Agreement.

7.Compliance With Older Workers’ Benefit Protection Act. Employee and the Company desire and intend that this Agreement comply with the terms of the Older Workers’ Benefit Protection Act. Accordingly, Employee acknowledges that he has been advised of the following rights:

a.Employee understands that federal and state laws, including the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, prohibit employment discrimination based upon age, sex, race, color, national origin, ethnicity, or disability.

(vi)IN THE EVENT THAT EMPLOYEE SIGNS THE AGREEMENT, HE HAS ANOTHER SEVEN (7) DAYS TO REVOKE IT BY DELIVERING NOTICE AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 6(f).

(vii)NEITHER THE COMPANY NOR ITS AGENTS OR ATTORNEYS HAS MADE ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR PROMISES TO THE TERMS OR EFFECTS OF THIS AGREEMENT OTHER THAN THOSE CONTAINED HERE; AND

(viii)EMPLOYEE HAS BEEN ADVISED TO CONSULT WITH AN ATTORNEY PRIOR TO EXECUTING THIS AGREEMENT.

8.Incorporation of Employment Agreement. All terms and provisions of Employee’s Employment Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference with the same force and effect as though fully set forth herein; provided, however, that if any term or provision set forth in this Agreement is inconsistent with any term or provision in the Employment Agreement, the terms and provisions in this Agreement shall prevail.

9.Employee Acknowledgements, Representations, and Obligations.

c.Employee represents that Employee has no known workplace injuries or occupational diseases.

d.Employee further agrees that Employee has not been retaliated against for reporting any allegations of wrongdoing by the Company or its officers, including any allegations of corporate fraud.

To the extent permitted by law, Employee agrees that if such an administrative claim is made, Employee shall not be entitled to recover any individual monetary relief or other individual remedies.

e.Employee hereby resigns, as of June 30, 2023 from any positions that Employee may hold as an officer or director of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates. Employee agrees to sign such additional letters of resignation as the Company may request.

10.No Legal Actions. Employee represents that he has not filed any claim, charge, or lawsuit against any of the Released Parties relating to his employment with the Company or termination thereof.

11.No Admission of Liability. The Parties execute this Agreement to put to rest all issues and disagreements that may exist between them regarding Employee’s employment with the Company or the termination thereof. This Agreement, however, should in no way be construed as an admission of liability or wrongdoing by the Company or any of the Released Parties, or as an admission of liability or wrongdoing by Employee, or that either Party has any rights whatsoever against the other, except as specifically provided herein. Each Party specifically disclaims any liability to or wrongful acts against the other.

12.Return of Company Property and Protection of Proprietary Information andIntellectual Property. Employee confirms that, prior to the Employment End Date, he will return to the Company, and not make or keep copies of, any Company-owned or Company-issued property, including, without limitation, all documents, data, information, files, reports, emails, spreadsheets, projections, studies, business plans, or any other material, whether in paper, electronic, or other form, belonging to or issued by the Company, or which were received or used by Employee during his employment with the Company. Employee further agrees that following the termination of his employment with the Company, he will refrain from disclosing to any third party or using any of the Company’s confidential business information or intellectual property in accordance with Employee’s agreements with the Company, statutes protecting trade secrets and/or common law.

13. Recapture of Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if Employee breaches any of his obligations hereunder or under the Employment Agreement, then Company may cease further payments pursuant to this Agreement without affecting the

14.    Binding on Parties and Representatives. This Agreement shall be binding upon Employee, his heirs, administrators, representatives, executors, successors, and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Company and to the other Released Parties, and to their respective administrators, representatives, executors, successors, and assigns.

15.    No Other Agreement. This Agreement, including the Employment Agreement, which is incorporated herein (to the extent it is not inconsistent with this Agreement), contains the entire agreement between Employee and the Company with respect to the subject matter herein. No part of this Agreement may be changed except in a writing, executed by both Employee and the Company.

16.    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision shall be held to be prohibited or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating or affecting the remainder of such provision or any of the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

Income Taxes

The following table presents the provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:

	For the three months ended
	March 31, 2023		March 31, 2022
Provision for income taxes	$	23,726	$	7,588

The provision for income taxes consists of (1) current tax expense, which relates primarily to our profitable operations in tax jurisdictions with limited or no net operating loss carryforwards and withholding taxes related to management fees, royalties, and the repatriation of foreign earnings; and (2) deferred tax expense (or benefit), which represents adjustments in book-to-tax basis differences primarily related to (a) book versus tax basis in intangible assets, (b) changes in net operating loss

carryforwards, and (c) changes in withholding taxes on unremitted earnings. Other items impacting deferred tax expense include changes in tax rates and changes in our assessment of the realizability of our deferred tax assets.

We recorded a partial valuation allowance against certain interest carryforwards in the U.S. at both December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. We are continually evaluating both the positive and negative evidence for this partial valuation allowance. We believe that there is a reasonable possibility that within the next 12 months, sufficient positive evidence may become available to allow us to reach a conclusion that a significant portion of the valuation allowance will no longer be needed. Release of the valuation allowance would result in the recognition of this deferred tax asset and a decrease to income tax expense for the period the release is recorded. However, the exact timing and amount of the valuation allowance release are subject to change on the basis of the level of profitability and future utilization of this attribute that we are able to actually achieve.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Net Income per Share

Net Income per Share

Basic and diluted net income per share are calculated by dividing net income by the number of basic and diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding during the period. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 the weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding used to calculate basic and diluted net income per share were as follows:

	For the three months ended
	March 31, 2023	March 31, 2022
Basic weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding	152,518	157,422
Dilutive effect of stock options	151	473
Dilutive effect of unvested restricted securities	655	735
Diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding	153,324	158,630

Certain potential ordinary shares were excluded from our calculation of diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding because either they would have had an anti-dilutive effect on net income per share or they related to equity awards that were contingently issuable for which the contingency had not been satisfied. These potential ordinary shares were as follows:

	For the three months ended
	March 31, 2023	March 31, 2022
Anti-dilutive shares excluded	381	4
Contingently issuable shares excluded	1,268	1,002

Credit Risk Related Contingent Features

We have agreements with our derivative counterparties that contain a provision whereby if we default on our indebtedness and repayment of the indebtedness has been accelerated by the lender, then we could also be declared in default on our derivative obligations.

As of March 31, 2023, the termination value of outstanding derivatives in a liability position, excluding any adjustment for non-performance risk, was $13.3 million. As of March 31, 2023, we had not posted any cash collateral related to these agreements. If we breach any of the default provisions on any of our indebtedness as described above, we could be required to settle our obligations under the derivative agreements at their termination values.

Acquisitions

Elastic M2M

On February 11, 2022, we acquired all of the equity interests of Elastic M2M Inc. ("Elastic M2M") for an aggregate cash purchase price of $51.6 million, subject to certain post-closing items. In addition to the aggregate cash purchase price, the previous shareholders of Elastic M2M are entitled to up to $30.0 million of additional acquisition-related incentive

compensation, which was pending the completion of certain technical milestones in fiscal year 2022 and achievement of financial targets in fiscal years 2022 and 2023. All technical milestones were completed in fiscal year 2022. As of December 31, 2022, we had recognized $24.7 million of this acquisition-related incentive compensation. In three months ended March 31, 2023, we recognized an additional $3.3 million of this acquisition-related incentive compensation. This incentive compensation is recorded in restructuring and other charges, net.

Elastic M2M was a privately-held innovator of connected intelligence for operational assets across heavy-duty transport, warehouse, supply chain and logistics, industrial, light-duty passenger car, and a variety of other industry segments. Elastic M2M primarily serves telematics service providers and resellers, enabling them to leverage Elastic M2M’s cloud platform and analytics capabilities to deliver sensor-based operational insights to their end users. This acquisition augments our cloud capabilities critical to delivering actionable sensor-based insights, an increasingly important capability in this fast-growing industry segment. We are integrating Elastic M2M into the Performance Sensing reportable segment.

The allocation of the purchase price related to this acquisition was finalized in the three months ended March 31, 2023. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price to the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed:

Net working capital, excluding cash	$	35
Goodwill	28,211
Other intangible assets	27,700
Deferred income tax liabilities	(5,925)
Fair value of net assets acquired, excluding cash and cash equivalents	50,021
Cash and cash equivalents	1,597
Fair value of net assets acquired	$	51,618

The goodwill recognized as a result of this acquisition represents future economic benefits expected to arise from synergies from combining operations and the extension of existing customer relationships. The goodwill recognized in this acquisition will not be deductible for tax purposes.

In connection with the allocation of purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we identified certain definite-lived intangible assets. The following table presents the acquired intangible assets, their estimated fair values, and weighted-average lives:

	Acquisition Date Fair Value		Weighted-Average Lives (years)
Acquired definite-lived intangible assets
Customer relationships	$	17,500	13
Completed technologies	10,200		10
Total definite-lived intangible assets acquired	$	27,700	12

The definite-lived intangible assets were valued using the income approach. We primarily used the relief-from-royalty method to value completed technologies, and we used the multi-period excess earnings method to value customer relationships. These valuation methods incorporate assumptions including expected discounted future net cash flows resulting from either the future estimated after-tax royalty payments avoided as a result of owning the completed technologies or the future earnings related to existing customer relationships.

Dynapower

On July 12, 2022, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding equity interests of DP Acquisition Corp ("Dynapower"), a leader in power conversion systems including inverters, converters, and rectifiers for renewable energy generation, green hydrogen production, electric vehicle charging stations, and microgrid applications, as well as industrial and defense applications, for an aggregate cash purchase price of $577.5 million, subject to certain post-closing items. Dynapower also provides aftermarket sales and service to maintain its equipment in the field.

Dynapower is a foundational addition to our Clean Energy Solutions strategy and complements our recent acquisitions of GIGAVAC, Lithium Balance, and Spear. We are integrating Dynapower into our Sensing Solutions reportable segment.

The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed:

Net working capital, excluding cash	$	13,487
Property, plant and equipment	1,846
Goodwill	418,257
Other intangible assets	164,400
Other assets	1,656
Deferred income tax liabilities	(25,548)
Other long-term liabilities	(1,035)
Fair value of net assets acquired, excluding cash and cash equivalents	573,063
Cash and cash equivalents	4,410
Fair value of net assets acquired	$	577,473

The allocation of purchase price of Dynapower is preliminary and is based on management’s judgments after evaluating several factors, including preliminary valuation assessments of intangible assets. The final allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired will be completed when the final valuations are completed. The preliminary goodwill recognized as a result of this acquisition represents future economic benefits expected to arise from synergies from combining operations and the extension of existing customer relationships. The goodwill recognized in this acquisition will not be deductible for tax purposes.

In connection with the preliminary allocation of purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, we identified certain definite-lived intangible assets. The following table presents the acquired intangible assets, their estimated fair values, and weighted-average lives:

	Acquisition Date Fair Value		Weighted-Average Lives (years)
Acquired definite-lived intangible assets
Customer relationships	$	37,000	13
Backlog	7,100		2
Completed technologies	86,100		12
Tradenames	34,200		18
Total definite-lived intangible assets acquired	$	164,400	13

The definite-lived intangible assets were valued using the income approach. We primarily used the relief-from-royalty method to value completed technologies and tradenames, and we used the multi-period excess earnings method to value customer relationships. These valuation methods incorporate assumptions including expected discounted future net cash flows resulting from either the future estimated after-tax royalty payments avoided as a result of owning the completed technologies or the future earnings related to existing customer relationships.

Divestiture - Qinex Business

On May 27, 2022, we executed an asset purchase agreement (the "APA") whereby we agreed to sell various assets and liabilities comprising our semiconductor test and thermal business (collectively, the "Qinex Business") to LTI Holdings, Inc. ("LTI") in exchange for consideration of approximately $219.0 million, subject to working capital and other adjustments. Concurrent with the execution of the APA, the parties entered into a Contract Manufacturing Agreement ("CMA") and a Transition Services Agreement ("TSA"), each for nominal consideration.

The CMA commenced at closing of the transaction ("Closing") and had a term of either six or nine months, depending on the manufacturing site. LTI also had the option of extending each contract for an additional three months. The period from Closing to the end of the CMA term (including extensions, if any) is referred to as the "Transition Period." The terms of the CMA required that we provide manufacturing and distribution services for the Transition Period. The TSA commenced at Closing and had a term that varied depending on the nature of the support services, ranging from one month to the entirety of the Transition Period. The terms of the TSA required that we provide various forms of commercial, operational, and back-office support to LTI. As of March 31, 2023, the Transition Period has ended.

Closing occurred in July 2022, at which time assets of approximately $70 million (including allocated goodwill of $45 million) and liabilities of approximately $2 million transferred to LTI. Transferred assets and liabilities excluded inventories and accounts payable, which transferred to LTI at the end of the Transition Period. We received cash consideration of

$198.8 million at Closing and recognized a pre-tax gain of $135.1 million. Cash consideration received at Closing excluded amounts held in escrow until various milestones were met through the Transition Period. The Qinex Business manufactures semiconductor burn-in test sockets and thermal control solutions and was formed through the combination of Sensata’s semiconductor interconnect business with Wells-CTI in 2012. The Qinex Business was included in our Sensing Solutions segment (and Industrial Solutions reporting unit). We allocated goodwill to the Qinex Business based on its fair value relative to the total fair value of the Industrial Solutions reporting unit.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Reporting

Segment Reporting

We present financial information for two reportable segments, Performance Sensing and Sensing Solutions. The Performance Sensing reportable segment consists of two operating segments, Automotive and HVOR, which meet the criteria for aggregation in FASB ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting. The Sensing Solutions reportable segment is also an operating segment.

Our operating segments are businesses that we manage as components of an enterprise, for which separate financial information is evaluated regularly by our chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

An operating segment’s performance is primarily evaluated based on segment operating income, which excludes amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and other charges, net, certain costs associated with our strategic megatrend initiatives, and certain corporate costs or credits not associated with the operations of the segment, including share-based compensation expense and a portion of depreciation expense associated with assets recognized in connection with acquisitions. Corporate and other costs excluded from an operating (and reportable) segment’s performance are separately stated below and also include costs that are related to functional areas such as finance, information technology, legal, and human resources. We believe that segment operating income, as defined above, is an appropriate measure for evaluating the operating performance of our segments. However, this measure should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, operating income or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The accounting policies of each of our operating and reportable segments are materially consistent with those described in Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies of the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2022 Annual Report.

The following table presents net revenue and segment operating income for our reportable segments and other operating results not allocated to our reportable segments for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022:
