SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND RELEASE

This Separation Agreement and Release (this “Agreement”) is entered into by and between Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated (the “Company”) located at 50 Executive Parkway, Hudson OH 44236 and Elizabeth Patrick (“Executive”).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, effective on December 1, 2022, (the “Separation Date”), Executive was separated from her employment with the Company as its Executive Vice President, Chief People Officer and from any and all other offices of the Company, and from any other position, office or directorship of any other entity for which Executive was serving at the request of the Company; and

WHEREAS, the Company and Executive desire to set forth the payments and benefits that Executive will be entitled to receive from the Company in connection with the cessation of her employment with the Company; and

WHEREAS, the Company and Executive wish to resolve, settle and/or compromise certain matters, claims and issues between them, including, without limitation, Executive’s separation from the offices Executive held and from her employment with the Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and agreements contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the Company and Executive hereby agree as follows:

1.Separation. Effective on the Separation Date, Executive’s employment with the Company, its subsidiaries and related or affiliated companies, and her position shall terminate. Executive will further resign, effective on the Separation Date: (a) from all other offices of the Company to which Executive has been elected by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), or to which she has otherwise been appointed; (b) from all offices of any entity that is a subsidiary of, or is otherwise related to or affiliated with, the Company; (c) from all administrative, fiduciary or other positions she may hold with respect to arrangements or plans for, of or relating to the Company; and (d) from any other directorship, office, or position of any corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (each, an “Other Entity”) insofar as Executive is serving in the directorship, office, or position of the Other Entity at the request of the Company. The Company hereby consents to and accepts said resignations.

2.Separation from Service. For purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Executive shall incur a separation of service, within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code (a “Separation from Service”), on the Separation Date.

3.Additional Compensation and Benefits. In consideration of the promises made by Executive in this Agreement and subject to the conditions hereof, the Company agrees to the following:

a.Severance Payment.

i.Provided that Executive is not in material breach of any of the terms of this Agreement, the Company will make the following payment to Executive: A lump sum amount in the amount of One Million Four Hundred Twenty Five Thousand Two Hundred Sixty Four Dollars ($1,425,264) paid in accordance with the normal payroll procedures of the Company on a Company payroll date which is after the eighth day Executive signs this Agreement and does not revoke it and is within sixty (60) days of the Separation Date (unless Executive is subject to a hold as set forth in Section 24), which is equal to one and one half multiplied by the sum of the following: (A) Executive’s base salary of Four Hundred Seventy Five Thousand Eighty Eight Dollars ($475,088); and (B) Executive’s 2022 annual target bonus of Four Hundred Seventy Five Thousand Eighty Eight Dollars ($475,088).

ii.Additionally, provided that Executive is not in material breach of any of the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall pay Executive, in accordance with normal payroll practices,

1.an amount of Seven Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($750,000) paid on or before January 31, 2023; and

2.within two and one-half (2½) months after the calendar year that includes the Separation Date, the actual bonus that would have been payable to Executive for the calendar year that includes the Separation Date based on actual performance if Executive had remained employed through the end of such calendar year; provided however, that such amount shall be adjusted on a pro rata basis based on the number of days Executive was actually employed during the bonus plan year in which the Separation Date occurs.

3.Executive understands that (A) the amounts paid after the Separation Date under this Agreement will not be treated as pensionable earnings under any pension or retirement plan, and (B) Executive will not be permitted to make any additional contributions to the Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated 401(k) Savings Plan, and (C) these payments will not give rise to the accrual of any benefits.

a.Accrued Salary and Vacation. Executive will be paid for unpaid salary through the Separation Date and for all accrued and unused vacation days on the first ordinary Company payroll date following the Separation Date or earlier if required by applicable law. Executive will be eligible for no other salary, vacation or paid time off.

b.Stock Options, Restricted Shares and Restricted Stock Units.

i.All stock options shall remain exercisable for a period of twelve (12) months and after any blackout period in effect on the Separation Date or the last day of the option term, whichever occurs first. Additionally, from time to time, the Company may declare “blackout” periods with respect to designated employees of the Company during which such employees are prohibited from engaging in certain transactions in Company securities. In the event that the scheduled expiration date of an option falls within a blackout period that has been declared by the Company and that applies to Executive, then the expiration date shall automatically, and without further notice to Executive, be extended until such time as fifteen (15) consecutive business days have elapsed after the scheduled expiration date without interruption by any blackout period that applied to Executive, but in no event later than the last day of the option term.

ii.All restrictions on any unvested shares of restricted shares and unvested restricted stock units shall immediately lapse, with such shares and units becoming nonforfeitable on a pro rata basis, as determined under this Section 3(c) except for Continuity Shares issued to Executive which shall be forfeited by the terms of the agreement. Similarly, any time-based LTIP awards shall be adjusted on a pro-rata basis as determined under this Section 3(c) The pro rata award shall equal the product of (x) and (y), where (x) is the number of restricted shares, restricted stock units or the cash annual increment subject to, or identified in, the award, and (y) is a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar months that Executive was employed by the Company during the restriction period (with any partial months counting as a full month for this purpose) and the denominator of which is the number of months in the restriction period. The timing of the delivery of any shares on account of the vesting of any restricted share units will be determined under the terms of the Company’s 2017 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan (as most recently amended and/or restated, the “2017 Plan”) and the award agreements thereunder.

iii.Executive hereby agrees that the payments made under this Agreement constitute full and adequate consideration for any changes in rights, including without limitation with respect to all awards granted to her under the 2017 Plan and any other plan.

c.Performance Shares, Performance Units.

i.Unearned performance shares, performance units and performance cash awards shall be paid out on a pro rata basis, as determined under this Section 3(d). The pro rata award shall equal the product of (x) and (y), where (x) is the award Executive would have earned based on actual performance measured as of the end of the respective performance period and (y) is a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar months that Executive was employed by the Company during the performance period (with any partial month counting as a full month for

this purpose) and the denominator of which is the number of months in the performance period. The cash settled performance based awards awarded in lieu of the performance shares shall be paid in accordance with the formula above for the performance shares and upon the terms and conditions of the award agreements. Any such awards will be paid to Executive at the same time eligible participants are paid.

d.Health Care and Life Insurance Coverages. Provided that Executive is not in material breach of any of the terms of this Agreement, Executive will be eligible to continue participation in the Company’s medical, dental, and vision benefits and the Company-paid basic group life insurance benefits for seventy-eight (78) weeks following the Separation Date. Such benefits shall be provided to Executive at the same coverage level and cost to Executive as in effect immediately prior to Executive’s Separation Date, subject to the terms of the applicable benefit plans including, but not limited to, Executive’s timely payment of any employee contributions necessary to maintain participation, and thereafter Executive shall be eligible to continue her participation in the Company’s health care plan in accordance with COBRA. Notwithstanding the above, these medical, dental, vision and Company-paid basic life insurance benefits shall be discontinued prior to the seventy-eight week anniversary of the Separation Date in the event Executive receives substantially similar benefits from a subsequent employer, as determined solely by the Company in good faith. For purposes of enforcing this offset provision, Executive shall be deemed to have a duty to keep the Company informed as to the terms and conditions of any subsequent employment and the corresponding benefits earned from such employment, and shall provide, or cause to provide, to the Company in writing correct, complete, and timely information concerning the same.

e.Professional Fees. The Company and Executive acknowledge and agree that each shall be responsible for the payment of their respective legal fees and costs (and related disbursements) incurred in connection with Executive’s separation and the negotiation and execution of this Agreement.

f.Outplacement Services. The Executive has agreed she will not receive professional outplacement services through a provider of the Company’s choice but will select and pay for her own outplacement services.

g.Retirement and 401(k) Plans. Executive’s post-Separation Date eligibility to participate, if any, in the Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated (i) 401(k) Savings Plan and (ii) 401(k) Restoration Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, (collectively, the “Retirement Plans”) shall be as set forth in the respective Retirement Plan documents.

h.Business Expenses. Within two (2) weeks after the Separation Date, Executive will file a final expense report covering any last expenses incurred on behalf of the Company. Thereafter, the Company will either (i) reimburse Executive for any pending, reasonable business-related credit card charges for which Executive has not already been reimbursed, or (ii) pay such charge directly to the card-issuing bank. Such

reimbursement will be made no later than thirty (30) days after the final expense reimbursement request has been submitted to the Company. Executive hereby authorizes the Company to deduct from monies to be paid to Executive under this Agreement any balance remaining on Executive’s Company credit card account after such (i) reimbursement or (ii) direct payment. Only those expenses incurred by Executive prior to the Separation Date shall be eligible for reimbursement.

i.Other Compensation and Benefits. Except as specifically set forth herein, Executive is due no other compensation or benefits. Executive acknowledges that as of the date of entering into this Agreement, Executive is no longer entitled to any benefits on account of a termination in connection with a change-in-control of the Company.

j.Separate Payments. Each payment and each reimbursement to Executive under the provisions of this Agreement will be considered a separate payment and not one of a series of payments for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.

4.Non-Competition.

a.For a period of one and one half (1.5) years after the Separation Date, Executive shall not: (A) directly or indirectly act in concert or conspire with any person employed by the Company in order to engage in or prepare to engage in or to have a financial or other interest in any business or any activity that she knows (or reasonably should have known) to be directly competitive either with the business of the Company as then being carried on or with any business, activity, product or service which was under active development while Executive was employed by the Company if such development was actively pursued or considered during the two (2) year period preceding the Separation Date; or (B) serve as an employee, agent, partner, shareholder, director, or consultant for, or act in any other capacity for or participate or engage with, NCR Corporation or Hyosung or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates.

b.In the event Executive violates any provision of this Section 4 as to which there is a specific time period during which Executive is prohibited from taking certain actions or from engaging in certain activities as set forth in such provision, such violation shall toll the running of such time period from the date of such violation until such violation shall cease. The foregoing shall in no way limit the Company’s rights under Section 9(b) of this Agreement.

c.Executive has carefully considered the nature and extent of the restrictions upon her and the rights and remedies conferred upon the Company under this Section 4 and this Agreement, and hereby acknowledges and agrees that the same are reasonable in time and territory, are designed to eliminate competition which otherwise would be unfair to the Company, do not stifle the inherent skill and experience of Executive, would not operate as a bar to Executive’s sole means of support, are fully required to protect the legitimate interests of the Company and do not confer a benefit upon the Company disproportionate to the detriment to Executive. Executive further acknowledges that her obligations in this Section 4

are made in consideration of, and are adequately supported by the payments by the Company to Executive described herein.

5.Non-Solicitation.

i.For a period of six (6) months following the Separation Date, Executive agrees that she will not employ or retain or solicit for employment or arrange to have any other person, firm, or other entity employ or retain or solicit for employment or otherwise participate in the employment or retention of any person who is an employee or consultant of the Company.

ii.For a period of two (2) years following the restriction in Section 5(a) above, Executive shall not directly recruit or solicit for employment or direct any other person, firm or other entity to recruit or solicit for employment or otherwise participate in the recruitment of any person who is an employee or consultant or the Company. This prohibition does not apply to employees or consultants of the Company who respond to general advertisements for positions but is meant to prevent action by Executive directed at or targeted toward a Company employee or consultant during the restricted period.

iii.For a period of two and one half (2.5) years following the separation datesolicit suppliers of Company or solicit customers of the Company to purchase goods or services then sold by the Company or induce any such person to terminate his, her, or its relationship with the Company.

6.Protected Information.

a.The Company has advised Executive and Executive acknowledges that it is the policy of the Company to maintain as secret and confidential all Protected Information (as defined below), and that Protected Information has been and will be developed at substantial cost and effort to the Company. Executive shall keep in strict confidence, and shall not at any time, directly or indirectly, divulge, furnish, or make accessible to any person, firm, corporation, association, or other entity, nor use or suffer to be used in any manner, any Protected Information, or cause any such Protected Information to enter the public domain, without limitation as to when or how Executive may have acquired such Protected Information.

b.For purposes of this Agreement, “Protected Information” means any of the following: trade secrets, confidential or proprietary business information of the Company, including, but not limited to, customer lists (including potential customers), sources of supply, processes, plans, materials, pricing information, internal memoranda, marketing plans, internal policies, and products and services that may be developed from time to time by the Company and its agents or employees, including Executive; provided, however, that information that is in the public domain (other than as a result of a breach of this Agreement), approved for release by the Company or lawfully obtained from third parties who are not bound by a confidentiality agreement with the Company, is not Protected Information.

Executive specifically acknowledges that Protected Information includes any and all such information, whether reduced to writing (or in a form from which information can be obtained, translated, or derived into reasonably usable form) or maintained in the mind or memory of Executive and whether compiled or created by the Company, which derives independent economic value from not being readily known to or ascertainable by proper means by others who can obtain economic value from the disclosure or use of such information.

c.Executive agrees: (i) that reasonable efforts have been put forth by the Company to maintain the secrecy of Protected Information; (ii) that such information was developed by and/or for the Company through substantial expenditure of time, effort and money and constitutes valuable and unique property of the Company; (iii) that such information is and will remain the sole property of the Company; and (iv) that any retention, disclosure, or use by Executive of Protected Information after the termination of Executive’s employment with, and performance of services for, the Company shall constitute a misappropriation of the Company’s Protected Information and a material breach of this Agreement, except under the circumstances set forth in Section 6(d) of this Agreement.

d.Exceptions. The disclosure of Protected Information by Executive, if done in strict compliance with one of the exceptions described in this Section 6(d), shall not constitute a breach of Section 6(c) of this Agreement, so long as the permitted disclosure of Protected Information is made by Executive in a manner that is reasonably designed to limit its dissemination to the limited purpose(s) permitted herein:

i.Executive may disclose Protected Information if compelled to do so by a subpoena or a valid order of any government officer or agency or of a court of competent jurisdiction, specifically directing Executive to disclose the Protected Information, provided that Executive shall attempt to avoid or resist such subpoena or order and, in any event, shall notify the Company in writing of such subpoena or order not less than five (5) days prior to any such disclosure, or as soon in advance as possible.

ii.Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall prevent, impede or interfere with Executive’s non-waivable right, without prior notice to the Company, to provide information to the government, participate in investigations, file a complaint, testify in proceedings regarding the Company’s past or future conduct, or engage in any future activities protected under the whistleblower statutes administered by OSHA or the SEC, or to receive and fully retain a monetary award from a government-administered whistleblower award program for providing information directly to a government agency.

iii.Executive shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (A) is made (i) in confidence to a Federal, State, or local

government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Furthermore, in the event Executive files a lawsuit for retaliation by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of the law, Executive may disclose the trade secret to Executive’s attorney and may use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if Executive files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.

iv.Any other disclosure that is specifically authorized in writing in advance of such disclosure, by either the Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Legal Officer of the Company.

e.Executive acknowledges and agrees that she will abide by all requirements and restrictions set forth in federal and state securities laws, including (but not limited to) refraining from buying or selling the securities of the Company based on material nonpublic information Executive acquired while she was employed by the Company and not disseminating such material nonpublic information to others.

f.Executive further acknowledges that her obligation of confidentiality shall survive until and unless such Protected Information shall have become, through no fault of Executive, generally known to the public, or except as permitted under Section 6(d).

g.Executive understands and agrees that Executive’s obligations under Sections 4, 5 and 6 of this Agreement are in addition to, and not in limitation or preemption of, all other obligations that Executive may have to the Company with respect to confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation under previous employment agreements or other agreements with the Company (which obligations remain in full force and effect) and general legal or equitable principles or statutes.

7.Release by Executive.

a.Executive, for herself and her dependents, successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators (and her and their legal representatives of every kind), hereby releases, dismisses, and forever discharges the Company, its predecessors, successors, assigns, acquirers, parents, direct and indirect subsidiaries, affiliates, and all such entities’ officers, directors, agents, representatives, partners, shareholders, insurers, attorneys, and employees (both current and former) (all released entities are collectively referred to as the “Released Parties”) from, and agrees to indemnify each of the Released Parties against, any and all arbitrations, claims (including claims for attorney’s fees), demands, damages, suits, proceedings, actions and/or causes of action of any kind and every description (collectively, “Claims”), whether known or unknown, which Executive now has or may

b.Limitations on scope of the release in Section 7(a):

i.The foregoing release does not waive rights or claims that may arise after the date this Agreement is executed or that cannot be waived as a matter of law. The foregoing release does not waive any rights to vested benefits under any of the Retirement Plans and the Diebold Incorporated Retirement Plan for Salaried Employees, and does not waive any breach or violation of this Agreement by the Company.

ii.Nothing in any part of this Agreement is intended to, or shall, interfere with Executive’s right to file or otherwise participate in a charge, investigation, or proceeding conducted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or other federal, state, or local government agency. Executive shall not, however, be

entitled to any relief, recovery, or monies in connection with any such matter brought against any of the Released Parties, regardless of who filed or initiated any such charge, investigation, or proceeding. Executive agrees that Executive will neither seek nor accept, from any source whatsoever, any further benefit, payment, or other consideration relating to any rights or claims that have been released in this Agreement. The prohibitions against further recovery in this paragraph 7(b)(ii) shall not apply to any monetary award from a government-administered whistleblower award program for providing information directly to a government agency.

c.Executive understands and acknowledges that the consideration provided under this Agreement is made for the purpose of settling and extinguishing all claims and rights (and every other similar or dissimilar matter) that Executive ever had or now may have or ever will have against the Released Parties to the extent provided in this Section 7.

d.Executive further understands and acknowledges that:

i.The release provided for in this Section 7 including claims under the ADEA to and including the date of this Agreement, is in exchange for the additional consideration provided for in this Agreement, to which consideration she Executive was not heretofore entitled;

ii.Executive has been advised by the Company to consult with legal counsel prior to executing this Agreement and the release provided for in this Section 7, has had an opportunity to consult with and to be advised by legal counsel of Executive’s choice, fully understands the terms of this Agreement, and enters into this Agreement freely, voluntarily and intending to be bound;

iii.Executive has been given a period of twenty one (21) days to review and consider the terms of this Agreement and the release contained herein, and that she may use as much of the twenty-one day period as she desires; and

iv.Executive may, within seven (7) days after execution, revoke this Agreement. Revocation shall be made by delivering a written notice of revocation to Jonathan Stark, VP Global Labor & Employment, at Diebold Nixdorf, Incorporated, 50 Executive Parkway, Hudson, Ohio 44236. For such revocation to be effective, written notice must be actually received by her at the Company no later than the close of business on the seventh day after Executive executes this Agreement. If Executive does exercise her right to revoke this Agreement, all of the terms and conditions of the Agreement shall be of no force and effect, and

the Company shall have no obligation to satisfy the terms or make any payment to Executive as set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement.

e.Executive agrees that she waives any claim that she might have to reemployment with the Company, and agrees not to seek future employment with the Company. Executive agrees that the Company has no obligation to employ, hire, or rehire her, or to consider her for hire, and that this right of the Company is purely contractual and is in no way discriminatory or retaliatory.

8.Disclosure. From the date of this Agreement through the end of the Restricted Period, Executive will communicate the contents of Sections 4, 5, 6 and 8 of this Agreement to any person, firm, association, or corporation which Executive intends to be employed by, associated in business with, or represent. The Company agrees that Executive may satisfy the requirements of this Section 8 by providing the third party a copy of Sections 4, 5, 6 and 8, and such disclosure is not a violation of this Agreement.

9.Breach; Arbitration.

a.If Executive materially breaches any of the provisions of this Agreement, then the Company may immediately terminate all remaining payments and benefits described in this Agreement, and in addition, the Company shall be entitled to obtain reimbursement from Executive of all payments and benefits already provided pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement, plus any expenses and damages incurred as a result of the breach (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees), with the remainder of this Agreement, and all promises and covenants herein, remaining in full force and effect.

i.The Company will not terminate pursuant to Section 9(a) any benefits in which Executive had vested as of the Separation Date under the Retirement Plans. Furthermore, Executive’s COBRA rights, if any, will not be reduced by any action taken by the Company under Section 9(a).

ii.Executive may challenge any Company action under Section 9(a).

b.The parties agree that any disputes, controversies, or claims of whatever nature arising out of or relating to this Agreement or breach thereof shall be resolved through binding arbitration before a mutually agreeable arbitrator or arbitrators, in accordance with the applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association; provided, however, that the parties agree that in the event of any alleged breach by Executive of any of her obligations under Sections 4, 5 and 6 of the Agreement, the arbitration requirements of this Section 9(b) shall not apply, and that instead, the Company may elect, in its sole discretion, to seek relief in either in the

Court of Common Pleas of Summit County, Ohio or the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, and the parties hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court. In addition, in connection with any such court action, Executive acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at law available to the Company for breach by Executive of any of her obligations under Sections 4, 5 or 6 of this Agreement would be inadequate and that damages flowing from such a breach would not readily be susceptible to being measured in monetary terms. Accordingly, Executive acknowledges, consents and agrees that, in addition to any other rights or remedies which the Company may have at law, in equity or under this Agreement, upon adequate proof of Executive’s violation of any provision of Sections 4, 5 or 6 of this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to immediate injunctive relief and may obtain a temporary order restraining any threatened or further breach, without the necessity of proof of actual damage.

10.Continued Availability and Cooperation.

a.If requested by the Company, Executive shall cooperate fully with the Company and/or with the Company’s agents or counsel in connection with any present and future transition issues, as well as any actual or threatened litigation or administrative proceeding involving the Company that relates to events, occurrences or conduct occurring (or claimed to have occurred) during the period of Executive’s employment by the Company or during the Restricted Period. Executive shall not unreasonably withhold her availability for such cooperation. This cooperation by Executive shall include, but not be limited to:

i.making herself reasonably available to consult with the Company and/or its agents on transition issues related to her prior work at the Company;

ii.making herself reasonably available for interviews and discussions with the Company’s counsel as well as for depositions and trial testimony;

iii.making herself reasonably available for depositions or trial testimony and cooperating in the preparation therefor;

iv.refraining from impeding in any way the Company’s prosecution or defense of such litigation or administrative proceeding; and

v.co-operating reasonably in the development and presentation of the Company’s prosecution or defense of such litigation or administrative proceeding.

b.Where Executive’s cooperation has been requested by the Company, Executive shall be reimbursed by the Company for reasonable travel,

lodging, telephone and similar expenses incurred in connection with her cooperation hereunder, which the Company shall reasonably endeavor to schedule at times not conflicting with the reasonable requirements of any employer of Executive, or with the requirements of any third party with whom Executive has a business relationship permitted hereunder that provides remuneration to Executive. All such reimbursements shall be for expenses incurred by Executive. In all events such reimbursement will be made no later than thirty (30) days after an appropriate expense reimbursement request has been submitted to the Company. Any expense reimbursed by the Company in one taxable year in no event will affect the amount of expenses required to be reimbursed or in-kind benefits required to be provided by the Company in any other taxable year.

c.Upon the Separation Date, Executive will update the Company as to the status of all pending matters for which Executive was responsible or otherwise involved. Further, Executive will make herself reasonably available following the Separation Date for telephonic discussions with Company personnel regarding matters that occurred prior to the Separation Date.

11.Successors and Binding Agreement.

i.This Agreement, and all obligations of the Company and Executive hereunder, shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, as applicable, any of their heirs, successors and assigns, including, without limitation, any persons acquiring, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company whether by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization, or otherwise (and such successor shall thereafter be deemed included in the definition of “the Company” for purposes of this Agreement) but shall not be otherwise assignable or delegable by the Company.

17.Entire Agreement. This Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede all prior verbal or written agreements, covenants, communications, understandings, commitments, representations or warranties, whether oral or written, by any party hereto or any of its representatives pertaining to such subject matter; provided, however, that any Conditions of Employment agreement(s) executed by Executive (the “Conditions”), the Retirement Plans, any other plans described in Section 3, and any prior agreements pertaining to stock options, bonuses, incentive or other forms of compensation, and any corresponding rights of the Company for breach of any such obligations, shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with their terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) any change in control or employment agreement to which Executive and the Company are parties (other than the Conditions) shall terminate as of the Separation Date, and all of Executive’s rights under any Company severance plans, programs, policies and arrangements (including, without limitation, the Company’s Senior Leadership Severance Plan) shall be extinguished as of the Separation Date and (b) if there is a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the Conditions of Employment agreement(s), this Agreement shall govern.

18.Governing Law. Any dispute, controversy, or claim of whatever nature arising out of or relating to this Agreement or breach thereof shall be governed by and under the laws of the State of Ohio.

19.Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect; except, however, that if any portion of the Release in Section 7 is determined by judicial order to be invalid or unenforceable, then the Company shall have seven days to decide whether (a) to invalidate this entire Agreement, in which case the entire Agreement will be void and Executive will have to pay back all money that Executive already received as severance pay, including but not limited to payments made under Section 3(a) of this Agreement; or (b) to waive its right to invalidate the Agreement and instead, to keep the Agreement valid and fully enforceable, subject to the changes needed to remove or modify the portion of the Release that was judicially determined to be invalid or unenforceable.

20.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.

21.Captions and Paragraph Headings. Captions and paragraph headings used herein are for convenience and are not part of this Agreement and shall not be used in construing it.

22.Further Assurances. Each party hereto shall execute such additional documents, and do such additional things, as may reasonably be requested by the other party to effectuate the purposes and provisions of this Agreement.

23.No Admission. Each party hereto understands and acknowledges that this Agreement shall in no way be construed as an admission by either party that it has acted wrongfully

or engaged in any violation of law, liability or invasion of any of right, and further that any such violation, liability or invasion is expressly denied by each party.

24.Tax Matters.

a.The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement all federal, state, city or other taxes as the Company is required to withhold pursuant to any applicable law, regulation or ruling. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company does not guarantee any particular tax result for Executive with respect to any payment provided to Executive hereunder. Executive shall be solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes, penalties and interest that may be imposed on her or for her account in connection with this Agreement (including, without limitation, any taxes, penalties and interest under Section 409A of the Code), and neither the Company nor any of its affiliates shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold Executive harmless from any or all of such taxes, penalties or interest.

b.To the extent applicable, it is intended that this Agreement comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement shall be administered in a manner consistent with this intent. Any reference in this Agreement to Section 409A of the Code will also include any proposed, temporary, or final regulations or any other formal guidance promulgated with respect to Section 409A of the Code by the U.S. Department of Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service. If Executive’s termination of employment hereunder does not constitute a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, then any amounts payable hereunder on account of a termination of Executive’s employment and which are subject to Section 409A of the Code shall not be paid until Executive has experienced a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. In addition, no reimbursement or in-kind benefit shall be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit and the amount available for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during any calendar year shall not affect the amount available for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in a subsequent calendar year. Any reimbursement to which Executive is entitled hereunder shall be made no later than the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such expenses were incurred. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if Executive constitutes a “specified employee” as defined and applied in Section 409A of the Code, as of the Separation Date, to the extent payments or benefits made hereunder constitute deferred compensation (after taking into account any applicable exemptions from Section 409A of the Code), and to the extent required by Section 409A of the Code, payments or benefits may not commence to be paid to Executive until the earlier of: (i) the first day following the six (6) month anniversary of Executive’s Separation Date, or (ii) Executive’s date of death.

25.Indemnification by Company.

i.Executive shall be indemnified with respect to any and all matters that arose during her employment with the Company, whether arising from her status as employee, officer or otherwise, to the maximum extent allowable under, and subject to any conditions or limitations set forth in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, Code of Regulations, or applicable law. These indemnification

obligations shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement. To the best of her knowledge, Executive warrants that Executive has disclosed to the Company all claims and circumstances and potential claims and circumstances that may exist, or could reasonably be brought against her, concerning her past activities as an employee that could reasonably be expected to result in a material claim.

ii.For purposes of this Section 25, the “Company” shall include its predecessors, subsidiaries, divisions, related or affiliated companies, officers, directors, stockholders, members, employees, heirs, successors, assigns, representatives, agents and counsel.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed and delivered this Agreement as of the date set forth below.
