    THIS THIRD AMENDMENT is made on April 8, 2024, by CARPENTER TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION, a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Company”).

INTRODUCTION

The Company maintains the Deferred Compensation Plan for Officers and Key Employees of Carpenter Technology Corporation (the “Plan”), which was last amended and restated effective as of July 1, 2014 and amended two times since that date.

“4.7    Clawback. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, amounts deferred hereunder are subject to any applicable compensation, clawback, recoupment or similar policies of the Employer in effect from time to time, whether adopted before or after the date of deferral and such other clawback rules as may be required by applicable law.”

Except as specifically amended hereby, the Plan shall remain in full force and effect prior to this Third Amendment.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Third Amendment to be executed on the day and year first above written.
