NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
(In Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Data)


1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments except those otherwise described herein) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included, unless otherwise disclosed. Operating results for the current quarter ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025.

The Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet at March 31, 2024 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K (SEC File No. 001-32253), which was filed on May 22, 2024 (the “2024 Annual Report”).

EnerSys (the “Company”) reports interim financial information for 13-week periods, except for the first quarter, which always begins on April 1, and the fourth quarter, which always ends on March 31. The four quarters in fiscal 2025 end on June 30, 2024, September 29, 2024, December 29, 2024, and March 31, 2025, respectively. The four quarters in fiscal 2024 ended on July 2, 2023, October 1, 2023, December 31, 2023, and March 31, 2024, respectively.

The consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and any partially owned subsidiaries that the Company has the ability to control. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates and assumptions take into account historical and forward looking factors that the Company believes are reasonable, and the Company’s estimates and assumptions may evolve as conditions change. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Examples of significant estimates include the allowance for credit losses, the recoverability of property, plant and equipment, the incremental borrowing rate for lease liabilities, the recoverability of intangible assets and other long-lived assets, fair value measurements, including those related to financial instruments, fair value of goodwill and intangible assets, valuation allowances on tax assets, production tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act, pension and postretirement benefit obligations, contingencies and the identification and valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with business combinations.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued new guidance that requires incremental disclosures related to reportable segments. That standard requires disclosure, on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") and included within each reported measure of profit or loss. The title and position of the CODM and how the reported measure of segment profit or loss is used by the CODM to assess segment performance and allocate resources is also required to be disclosed. The standard also permits disclosure of additional measures of segment profit. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The guidance impacts disclosure only and will not have an impact on the Company's financial results. These changes in disclosure will initially be reflected in the annual financial statement footnotes for the year ended March 31, 2025.

Table of Contents    
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a final standard on improvements to income tax disclosures. The standard requires disclosure of specific categories within the effective tax rate reconciliation and details about significant reconciling items, subject to a quantitative threshold. The standard also requires information on income taxes paid disaggregated by federal, state and foreign based on a quantitative threshold. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The standard is applied prospectively with an option for retrospective adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its disclosures.

2. Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenues by reportable segments are presented in Note 16 and are consistent with how we organize and manage our operations, as well as product line net sales information.

Service revenues related to the work performed for the Company’s customers by its maintenance technicians generally represent a separate and distinct performance obligation. Control for these services passes to the customer as the services are performed.

A small portion of the Company's customer arrangements oblige the Company to create customized products for its customers that require combining both products and services into a single performance obligation because the individual products and services that are required to fulfill the customer requirements do not meet the definition for a distinct performance obligation. These customized products generally have no alternative use to the Company and the terms and conditions of these arrangements give the Company the enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date, including a reasonable profit margin. For these arrangements, control transfers over time and the Company measures progress towards completion by selecting the input or output method that best depicts the transfer of control of the underlying goods and services to the customer for each respective arrangement. Methods used by the Company to measure progress toward completion include labor hours, costs incurred and units of production. Revenues recognized over time for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2024 amounted to $52,332 and $58,654, respectively.

On June 30, 2024, the aggregate transaction price allocated to unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) performance obligations was approximately $125,905, of which, the Company estimates that approximately $70,569 will be recognized as revenue in fiscal 2025, $52,218 in fiscal 2026, and $3,118 in fiscal 2027.

Any payments that are received from a customer in advance, prior to the satisfaction of a related performance obligation and billings in excess of revenue recognized, are deferred and treated as a contract liability. Advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized are classified as current or non-current based on the timing of when recognition of revenue is expected. As of June 30, 2024, the current and non-current portion of contract liabilities were $30,047 and $791, respectively. As of March 31, 2024, the current and non-current portion of contract liabilities were $27,649 and $960, respectively. Revenues recognized during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2024 that were included in the contract liability at the beginning of the quarter, amounted to $6,100 and $12,391, respectively.

Amounts representing work completed and not billed to customers represent contract assets and were $67,065 and $55,363 as of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.

The Company uses historic customer product return data as a basis of estimation for customer returns and records the reduction of sales at the time revenue is recognized. At June 30, 2024, the right of return asset related to the value of inventory anticipated to be returned from customers was $4,276 and refund liability representing amounts estimated to be refunded to customers was $7,230.

3. Accounts Receivable

Allowance for doubtful accounts 8,447 8,107 
Accounts receivable, net$507,925 $524,725 

During the third quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company entered into a Receivables Purchase Agreement (RPA), under which the Company continuously sells its interest in designated pools of trade accounts receivables, at a discount, to a special purpose entity, which in turn sells certain of the receivables to an unaffiliated financial institution ("unaffiliated financial institution") on a monthly basis. The Company may sell certain US-originated accounts receivable balances up to a maximum amount of

Table of Contents    
$150,000. In return for these sales, the Company receives a cash payment equal to the face value of the receivables and is charged a fee of Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 85 basis points against the sold receivable balance. The program is conducted through EnerSys Finance LLC ("EnerSys Finance"), an entity structured to be bankruptcy remote, and matures in December 2025. The Company is deemed the primary beneficiary of EnerSys Finance as the Company has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive the benefits that could potentially be significant to the entity from the transfer of the trade accounts receivables into the special purpose entity. Accordingly, EnerSys Finance is included in the Company’s Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

Receivables sold to unaffiliated financial institutions under the program are excluded from “Accounts receivable, net” on the Company’s Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, and cash receipts are reflected as cash provided by operating activities on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Cash Flows. The purchase price is received in cash when the receivables are sold, and fees charged relating to this balance are recorded to other (income) expense. Certain unsold receivables held by EnerSys Finance serve as collateral to unaffiliated financial institutions. These unsold receivables are included in “Accounts receivable, net” in the Company’s Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. The Company continues servicing the receivables which were sold and in exchange receives a servicing fee from EnerSys Finance under the program.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company sold $189,736 of accounts receivables for approximately $189,736 in proceeds to an unaffiliated financial institution, of which $189,736 were collected as of June 30, 2024. During the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company sold $182,391 of accounts receivables for approximately $182,391 in net proceeds to an unaffiliated financial institution, of which $183,352 were collected as of July 2, 2023. Total collateralized accounts receivables of approximately $318,647 were held by EnerSys Finance at June 30, 2024.

Any accounts receivables held by EnerSys Finance would likely not be available to other creditors of the Company in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings relating to the Company until the outstanding balances under the RPA are satisfied. Additionally, the financial obligations of EnerSys Finance to the unaffiliated financial institutions under the program are limited to the assets it owns and there is no recourse to the Company for receivables that are uncollectible as a result of the insolvency of EnerSys Finance or its inability to pay the account debtors.

The fair values of lead forward contracts are calculated using observable prices for lead as quoted on the London Metal Exchange (“LME”) and, therefore, were classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy, as described in Note 1- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2024 Annual Report.

The fair values for foreign currency forward contracts and net investment hedges are based upon current quoted market prices and are classified as Level 2 based on the nature of the underlying market in which these derivatives are traded.

The fair value of interest rate swap agreements are based on observable prices as quoted for receiving the variable one-month term SOFR and paying fixed interest rates and, therefore, were classified as Level 2.

Financial Instruments

The fair values of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents approximate carrying value due to their short maturities.

The fair value of the Company’s short-term debt and borrowings under the Fourth Amended Credit Facility (as defined in Note 11), approximate their respective carrying value, as they are variable rate debt and the terms are comparable to market terms as of the balance sheet dates and are classified as Level 2.

The fair value of the Company's 2032 Notes and 2027 Notes, (each as defined in Note 11 and collectively, the "Senior Notes"), represent the trading values based upon quoted market prices and are classified as Level 2. The 2032 Notes were trading at approximately 102% and 100% of face value on June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively. The 2027 Notes were trading at approximately 94% and 94% of the face value on June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s derivatives and Senior Notes at June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024 were as follows:

(2)The fair value amount of the Senior Notes at June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024 represent the trading value of the instruments.

6. Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company utilizes derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices, foreign exchange rates and interest, under established procedures and controls. The Company does not enter into derivative contracts for speculative purposes. The Company’s agreements are with creditworthy financial institutions and the Company anticipates performance by counterparties to these contracts and therefore no material loss is expected.

Derivatives in Cash Flow Hedging Relationships

10
Table of Contents    
Lead Forward Contracts

The Company enters into lead forward contracts to fix the price for a portion of its lead purchases. Management considers the lead forward contracts to be effective against changes in the cash flows of the underlying lead purchases. The vast majority of such contracts are for a period not extending beyond one year. At June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company hedged the price to purchase approximately 45.0 million pounds and 53.0 million pounds of lead, respectively, for a total purchase price of $45,237 and $49,977, respectively.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts and options to hedge a portion of the Company’s foreign currency exposures for lead, as well as other foreign currency exposures so that gains and losses on these contracts offset changes in the underlying foreign currency denominated exposures. The vast majority of such contracts are for a period not extending beyond one year. As of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company had entered into a total of $42,676 and $46,159, respectively, of such contracts.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

The Company is exposed to changes in variable interest rates on borrowings under our credit agreement. On a selective basis, from time to time, it enters into interest rate swap agreements to reduce the negative impact that increases in interest rates could have on our outstanding variable rate debt. At June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024 such agreements effectively convert $200,000 of our variable-rate debt to a fixed-rate basis, utilizing the one-month term SOFR, as a floating rate reference. Fluctuations in SOFR and fixed rates affect both our net financial investment position and the amount of cash to be paid or received by us under these agreements.

Derivatives in Net Investment Hedging Relationships

Net Investment Hedges

The Company uses cross currency fixed interest rate swaps to hedge its net investments in foreign operations against future volatility in the exchange rates between the U.S. Dollar and Euro.

On September 29, 2022, the Company entered into cross-currency fixed interest rate swap contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $150,000, maturing on December 15, 2027. Additionally, on July 2, 2024, the Company entered into cross-currency fixed interest rate swap contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $150,000, maturing on January 15, 2029. The cross-currency fixed interest rate swap contracts qualify for hedge accounting as a net investment hedging instrument, which allows for them to be remeasured to foreign currency translation adjustment within AOCI (“Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income”) to offset the translation risk from those investments. Balances in the foreign currency translation adjustment accounts remain until the sale or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity, upon which they are recognized as a component of other income (expense).

Impact of Hedging Instruments on AOCI

In the coming twelve months, the Company anticipates that $6,293 of pretax (gain) relating to lead, foreign currency forward contracts and net investment hedges will be reclassified from AOCI as part of cost of goods sold and interest expense. This amount represents the current net unrealized impact of hedging lead, foreign exchange rates and interest rates, which will change as market rates change in the future. This amount will ultimately be realized in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income as an offset to the corresponding actual changes in lead, foreign exchange rates and interest costs resulting from variable lead cost, foreign exchange and interest rates hedged.

Derivatives not Designated in Hedging Relationships

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

The Company also enters into foreign currency forward contracts to economically hedge foreign currency fluctuations on intercompany loans and foreign currency denominated receivables and payables. These are not designated as hedging instruments and changes in fair value of these instruments are recorded directly in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income. As of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the notional amount of these contracts was $69,415 and $69,319, respectively.

7. Income Taxes

The Company’s income tax provision consists of federal, state and foreign income taxes. The tax provision for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2024 was based on the estimated effective tax rates applicable for the full years ending March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, respectively, after giving effect to items specifically related to the interim periods. The Company’s effective income tax rate with respect to any period may be volatile based on the mix of income in the tax jurisdictions, in which the Company operates, changes in tax laws and the amount of the Company's consolidated earnings before taxes.

The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has a framework to implement a global minimum corporate tax of 15% for companies with global revenues and profits above certain thresholds (referred to as Pillar 2), with certain aspects of Pillar 2 effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2023. While it is uncertain whether the U.S. will enact legislation to adopt Pillar 2, certain countries in which we operate have adopted legislation, and other countries are in the process of introducing legislation to implement Pillar 2. The impact of the enacted legislation is identified below. The Company will continue to monitor and evaluate as new legislation and guidance is issued.

The consolidated effective income tax rates for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2024 were 11.6% and 9.2%. The effective tax rate increase in the first quarter compared to the first quarter of the prior year is primarily due to a discrete foreign exchange tax benefit related to undistributed earnings in first quarter of fiscal 2024, impact of Pillar 2, and mix of earnings among tax jurisdictions.

Foreign income as a percentage of worldwide income is estimated to be 49% for fiscal 2025 compared to 51% for fiscal 2024. The foreign effective tax rates for the current quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2024 were 14% and 12%, respectively. The foreign effective tax rate increase in the first quarter compared to the first quarter of the prior year is primarily due to the impact of Pillar 2. Income from the Company's Swiss subsidiary comprised a substantial portion of the Company's overall foreign mix of income for both fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 and were taxed at an effective income tax rate of approximately 11% and 8%, respectively.

8. Warranty

The Company provides for estimated product warranty expenses when products are sold, with related liabilities included within accrued expenses and other liabilities. As warranty estimates are forecasts that are based on the best available information, primarily historical claims experience, costs of claims may ultimately differ from amounts provided. An analysis of changes in the liability for product warranties is as follows:

9. Commitments, Contingencies and Litigation

Litigation and Other Legal Matters

In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are routinely defendants in or parties to pending and threatened legal actions and proceedings, including actions brought on behalf of various classes of claimants. These actions and proceedings are generally based on alleged violations of environmental, anticompetition, employment, contract and other laws. In some of these actions and proceedings, claims for substantial monetary damages are asserted against the Company and its subsidiaries. In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are also subject to regulatory and governmental examinations, information gathering requests, inquiries, investigations, and threatened legal actions and proceedings. In connection with formal and informal inquiries by federal, state, local and foreign agencies, the Company and its subsidiaries receive numerous requests, subpoenas and orders for documents, testimony and information in connection with various aspects of their activities.

European Competition Investigations

Certain of the Company’s European subsidiaries had received subpoenas and requests for documents and, in some cases, interviews from, and have had on-site inspections conducted by, the competition authorities of Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands relating to conduct and anticompetitive practices of certain industrial battery participants. As of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, the Company did not have a reserve balance related to these matters.

The precise scope, timing and time period at issue, as well as the final outcome of the investigations or customer claims, remain uncertain. Accordingly, the Company’s estimate may change from time to time, and actual losses could vary.

Environmental Issues

As a result of its operations, the Company is subject to various federal, state, and local, as well as international environmental laws and regulations and is exposed to the costs and risks of registering, handling, processing, storing, transporting, and disposing of hazardous substances, especially lead and acid. The Company’s operations are also subject to federal, state, local and international occupational safety and health regulations, including laws and regulations relating to exposure to lead in the workplace. The Company believes that it has adequate reserves to satisfy its environmental liabilities.

Lead, Foreign Currency Forward Contracts and Swaps

To stabilize its lead costs and reduce volatility from currency and interest rate movements, the Company entered into contracts with financial institutions. The vast majority of lead and foreign currency contracts are for a period not extending beyond one year. The Company also entered into a cross currency fixed interest rate swap agreement, maturing on December 15, 2027, to hedge its net investments in foreign operations against future volatility in the exchange rates between the U.S. Dollar and Euro. The Company also entered into floating to fixed interest rate swap agreements maturing on September 30, 2026, to hedge its exposure to variable interest rates. Please refer to Note 6 - Derivative Financial Instruments for more details.

2017 Credit Facility and Subsequent Amendments

In fiscal 2018, the Company entered into a credit facility (the “2017 Credit Facility”). The 2017 Credit Facility was scheduled to mature on September 30, 2022, initially comprised a $600,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (“2017 Revolver”) and a $150,000 senior secured term loan (“2017 Term Loan”). The Company utilized the borrowings from the 2017 Credit Facility to repay its pre-existing credit facility.

In fiscal 2019, the Company amended the 2017 Credit Facility (as amended, the “Amended Credit Facility”) to fund the Alpha acquisition. The Amended Credit Facility consisted of $449,105 senior secured term loans (the “Amended Term Loan”), including a CAD 133,050 ($99,105) senior secured term loan and a $700,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Amended Revolver”). The amendment resulted in an increase of the 2017 Term Loan and the 2017 Revolver by $299,105 and $100,000, respectively.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company entered into a second amendment to the 2017 Credit Facility (as amended, the “Second Amended Credit Facility”). The Second Amended Credit Facility, scheduled to mature on September 30, 2026, consists of a $130,000 senior secured term loan (the “Second Amended Term Loan”), a CAD 106,440 ($84,229) senior secured term loan and an $850,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Second Amended Revolver”). The second amendment resulted in a decrease of the Amended Term Loan by $150,000 and an increase of the Amended Revolver by $150,000.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company entered into a third amendment to the 2017 Credit Facility (as amended, the “Third Amended Credit Facility”). The Third Amended Credit Facility provides a new incremental delayed-draw senior secured term loan up to $300,000 (the “Third Amended Term Loan”), which shall be available to draw at any time until March 15, 2023. Once drawn, the funds will mature on September 30, 2026, the same as the Company's Second Amended Term Loan and Second Amended Revolver. In connection with the agreement, the Company incurred $1,161 in third party administrative and legal fees recognized in interest expense and capitalized $1,096 in charges from existing lenders as a deferred asset. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company drew $300,000 in the form of the Third Amended Term Loan. Additionally, the Company derecognized the capitalized deferred asset and recognized the $1,096 as deferred financing costs.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company entered into a fourth amendment to the 2017 Credit Facility (as amended, the “Fourth Amended Credit Facility”). The Fourth Amended Credit Facility replaces the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) in the calculation of interest for both the Second Amended Revolver and the Second Amended Term Loan.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024, we received proceeds from the issuance of the 2032 Senior Notes and paid down $86,488 and $188,750 towards the Second and Third Amended Term loans and wrote off $753 in deferred finance costs.

Subsequent to the fourth amendment, the quarterly installments payable on the Second Amended Term Loan are $2,598 beginning December 31, 2022, $3,897 beginning December 31, 2024 and $5,196 beginning December 31, 2025 with a final payment of $155,873 on September 30, 2026. The Fourth Amended Credit Facility may be increased by an aggregate amount of $350,000 in revolving commitments and /or one or more new tranches of term loans, under certain conditions. Both the Second Amended Revolver and the Second Amended Term Loan bear interest, at the Company's option, at a rate per annum equal to either (i) the SOFR plus 10 basis points plus (i) between 1.125% and 2.25% (currently 1.125% and based on the Company's consolidated net leverage ratio) or (ii) the U.S. Dollar Base Rate or Canadian Prime Rate plus between 0.125% and 1.25%, which equals, for any day a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.50%, (b) Bank of America “Prime Rate” and (c) the Eurocurrency Base Rate plus 1%; provided that, if the Base Rate shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed zero) (iii) the CDOR Base Rate equal to the higher of (a) Bank of America “Prime Rate” and (b) average 30-day CDOR rate plus 0.50%.

The quarterly installments payable on the Third Amended Term Loan were $3,750 beginning June 30, 2023, $5,625 beginning December 31, 2024 and $7,500 beginning December 31, 2025 with a final payment of $232,500 on September 30, 2026. The

Third Amended Term Loan bears interest, at the Company's option, at a rate per annum equal to either (i) SOFR plus 10 basis points plus (i) between 1.375% and 2.50% (currently 1.375% and based on the Company's consolidated net leverage ratio) or (ii) the U.S. Dollar Base Rate plus between 0.375% and 1.50%, which equals, for any day a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.50%, (b) Bank of America “Prime Rate” and (c) the Term SOFR plus 1%; provided that, if the Base Rate shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed zero). Until the funds were drawn on March 13, 2023, the Company paid a commitment fee of 0.175% to 0.35% at a rate per annum on the unused portion.

Obligations under the Fourth Amended Credit Facility are secured by substantially all of the Company’s existing and future acquired assets, including substantially all of the capital stock of the Company’s United States subsidiaries that are guarantors under the Fourth Amended Credit Facility and up to 65% of the capital stock of certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries that are owned by the Company’s United States subsidiaries.

The Fourth Amended Credit Facility allows for up to two temporary increases in the maximum leverage ratio to 4.50x from 4.00x to 4.25x for a four quarter period following an acquisition larger than $250,000. Effective with the Fourth Amended Credit Facility, the maximum leverage ratio increased from 3.50x to 4.25x effective to the last day of the second quarter of fiscal year 2024 and decreasing subsequently to 4.00x.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $65,000 outstanding under the Second Amended Revolver, $110,000 under the Second Amended Term Loan, and $100,000 outstanding under the Third Amended Term Loan.

Current Portion of Debt

Short-Term Debt

Bren-Tronics Acquisition

On July 26, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the equity of Bren-Tronics Defense LLC for $208 million in cash consideration, subject to adjustments as set forth in the stock purchase agreement. Bren-Tronics Defense LLC, headquartered in Commack, New York, is a leading manufacturer of highly reliable portable power solutions, including small and large format lithium batteries and changing solutions, for military and defense applications.

Economic Climate

Global economic conditions are mixed with the impacts of elevated interest rates and rising geopolitical tensions having various levels of impacts in North America, China and EMEA. All regions experienced a moderate rise in inflation in calendar year 2023 compared to calendar 2022 and continue to be negatively impacted by the war in Ukraine. We expect inflationary pressures and interest rates to continue to stay elevated through calendar 2024, but saw positive trends in June 2024 when the European Central Bank (ECB) cut its main interest rate by 25 basis points for the first time in five years. The U.S. Federal Reserve kept interest rates stable, but there is an expectation for a modest decrease in the second half of calendar year 2024. Policy makers in both regions have maintained a cautious stance. China’s economy saw some bright spots entering calendar year 2024 as a result of increasing travel and consumer spending due to relaxed COVID policies, but the region faces ongoing challenges from a weakened real estate market and is expected to experience a slowdown compared to calendar year 2023.

Supply chain has been stabilizing since the second quarter of calendar year 2023. While there are still pockets of supply chain challenges and some elevated materials costs such as plastic resins, electronic components and copper and other costs such as transportation have returned to pre-COVID levels. However, recent geopolitical tensions between Hamas and Israel have begun to disrupt shipments in the Red Sea. As a result, some ocean freight costs and transit times may temporarily increase until shipping in the region returns to normal. Generally, our mitigation efforts and ongoing lean initiatives have tempered the impact of the pandemic-related challenges. The market demand in our Motive Power segment remains healthy, but we saw a decrease in demand in the Class 8 truck market in our fiscal first quarter, which impacted the Specialty segment. The cyclical capex pauses in the communication networks market has decreased demand in the Energy Systems segment since our second quarter fiscal 2024, but we saw some improvements in the last month of our first quarter fiscal 2025.

Volatility of Commodities and Foreign Currencies

25
Table of Contents    
Our most significant commodity and foreign currency exposures are related to lead and the Euro, respectively. Historically, volatility of commodity costs and foreign currency exchange rates have caused large swings in our production costs. In the fiscal year 2025, we have experienced a range in lead prices from approximately $1.05 per pound to $0.90 per pound. Costs in some of our other raw materials such as steel, acid, separator paper and electronics have moderated since the middle of fiscal year 2024, but we have seen some price increases in other raw materials such as copper and plastic resins since the beginning of fiscal year 2025.
Customer Pricing

Our selling prices fluctuated during the last several years to offset the volatile cost of commodities. Approximately 25% of our revenue is now subject to agreements that adjust pricing to a market-based index for lead. Customer pricing changes generally lag movements in lead prices and other costs by approximately six to nine months. In fiscal 2024 and 2025, customer pricing has increased due to certain commodity prices and other costs having increased throughout the year.

Based on current commodity markets, it is difficult to predict with certainty whether commodity prices will be higher or lower in fiscal 2025 versus fiscal 2024. However, given the lag related to increasing our selling prices for inflationary cost increase, on average our selling prices should be higher in fiscal 2025 versus fiscal 2024. As we concentrate more on energy systems and non-lead chemistries, the emphasis on lead is expected to continue to decline.


Primary Operating Capital

As part of managing the performance of our business, we monitor the level of primary operating capital, and its ratio to net sales. We define primary operating capital as accounts receivable, plus inventories, minus accounts payable. The resulting net amount is divided by the trailing three-month net sales (annualized) to derive a primary operating capital percentage. We believe these three elements included in primary operating capital are most operationally driven, and this performance measure provides us with information about the asset intensity and operating efficiency of the business on a company-wide basis that management can monitor and analyze trends over time. Primary operating capital was $866.9 million (yielding a primary operating capital percentage of 25.4%) at June 30, 2024, $852.9 million (yielding a primary operating capital percentage of 23.4%) at March 31, 2024 and $1,032.6 million at July 2, 2023 (yielding a primary operating capital percentage of 28.4%). The primary operating capital percentage of 25.4% at June 30, 2024 increased by 200 basis points compared to March 31, 2024 and decreased 300 basis points compared to July 2, 2023. The increase in primary operating capital percentage at June 30, 2024 compared to March 31, 2024 was primarily due to consistent inventory and accounts payable levels maintained this quarter in anticipation for future sales. Accounts receivable amounts were decreased comparatively mainly due to improved collection compared to the fourth fiscal quarter of the prior fiscal year. The decrease in primary operating capital percentage at June 30, 2024 compared to July 2, 2023 was primarily from a reduction in accounts receivable due to higher collections and inventory due to improved inventory management actions and easing of supply chain constraints compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2024.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe that our financial position is strong, and we have substantial liquidity to cover short-term liquidity requirements and anticipated growth in the foreseeable future, with $344 million of available cash and cash equivalents and available and undrawn committed credit lines of approximately $782 million at June 30, 2024, availability subject to credit agreement financial covenants.

A substantial majority of the Company’s cash and investments are held by foreign subsidiaries and are considered to be indefinitely reinvested and expected to be utilized to fund local operating activities, capital expenditure requirements and acquisitions. The Company believes that it has sufficient sources of domestic and foreign liquidity.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, we entered into a second amendment to the Amended Credit Facility (as amended, the “Second Amended Credit Facility”). As a result, the Second Amended Credit Facility, now scheduled to mature on September 30, 2026, consists of a $130.0 million senior secured term loan and a CAD 106.4 million ($84.2 million) term loan (the “Second Amended Term Loan”) and an $850.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Second Amended Revolver”). This amendment resulted in a decrease of the Amended Term Loan by $150.0 million and an increase of the Amended Revolver by $150.0 million.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company entered into a third amendment to the 2017 Credit Facility (as amended, the “Third Amended Credit Facility”). The Third Amended Credit Facility provided a new incremental delayed-draw senior secured term loan up to $300 million (the “Third Amended Term Loan”), which was available to draw until March 15, 2023. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company drew $300 million in the form of the Third Amended Term Loan. The funds will mature on September 30, 2026, the same as the Company's Second Amended Term Loan and Second Amended Revolver. In connection with the agreement, the Company incurred $1.2 million in third party administrative and legal fees recognized in interest expense and capitalized $1.1 million in charges from existing lenders as a deferred asset. Additionally, the Company derecognized the capitalized deferred asset and recognized the $1.1 million as deferred financing costs.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company entered into a fourth amendment to the 2017 Credit Facility (as amended, the “Fourth Amended Credit Facility”). The Fourth Amended Credit Facility replaces the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) in the calculation of interest for both the Second Amended Revolver and the Second Amended Term Loan.

On January 11, 2024, we issued $300 million in aggregate principal amount of our 6.625% Senior Notes due 2032 (the “2032 Notes”). Proceeds from this offering, net of debt issuance costs were $297.0 million and were utilized to pay down the Fourth Amended Credit Facility.

During the current quarter of fiscal 2025, we purchased 129,433 shares for $11.6 million.

We believe that our strong capital structure and liquidity affords us access to capital for future acquisitions, capital investments, stock repurchase opportunities and continued dividend payments.

Net sales of our Energy Systems segment in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 decreased $63.6 million or 15.0% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2024. This decrease was due to an 11% decrease in organic volume, a 3% decrease in price/mix and a 1% decrease in foreign currency translation. This decrease in sales and price/mix was driven by continued capital spending pauses by our telecommunication and broadband customers.


Net sales of our Motive Power segment in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 increased by $15.4 million or 4.4% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2024. This increase was primarily due to a 6% increase in organic volume, offset by a 1% decrease from price/mix and a 1% decrease from foreign currency translation. We continue to benefit from a favorable sales mix, which was offset by the removal of both the utility adder and the elevated utility costs in EMEA in prior year.

Net sales of our Specialty segment in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 decreased by $7.5 million or 5.7% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a 3% decrease in organic volume, and a 3% decrease in price/mix. This decrease in sales was primarily driven by decreased volumes from Class 8 OEM transportation customers.

Exit Charges

Fiscal 2024 Programs

Renewables

On November 8, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors approved a plan to stop production and operations of residential renewable energy products, which include our OutBack and Mojave brands. Management determined that residential renewable energy products no longer fit with the Company’s core strategy and resources will be better allocated toward commercial energy solutions for enterprise customers. The Company currently estimates that the total charges for these actions will amount to $24.5 million relating primarily to $23.6 million in non-cash charges primarily including inventory and an indefinite-lived intangible asset write-offs and $0.9 million in cash charges including employee severance and retention payments. The plan was substantially complete as the end of fiscal 2024.

During fiscal 2024, the Company recorded non-cash charges totaling $0.6 million primarily related to fixed assets and cash charges of $0.7 million related to severance costs. The Company also recorded a non-cash write-offs relating to inventories of $17.1 million, which was reported in cost of goods sold, and impairment of indefinite lived intangible asset of $6.0 million.

Spokane

On November 8, 2023, the Company committed to a plan to close its facility in Spokane, Washington, which primarily manufactures enclosure systems for telecommunications and related end markets. Management determined that existing manufacturing locations have the capacity to satisfy demand for these products and will execute more efficient distribution to customers. The Company currently estimates that the total charges for these actions will amount to approximately $3.6 million relating to $1.4 million in cash charges for employee severance, and non-cash charges of $2.2 million fixed assets, facility lease, and inventory. The plan was substantially complete as the end of fiscal 2024.

During fiscal 2024, the Company recorded cash charges of $1.3 million primarily related to severance costs and non-cash charges totaling $2.1 million related to lease right of use asset and fixed asset write-offs.

Fiscal 2023 Programs

Sylmar

In November 2022, the Company committed to a plan to close its facility in Sylmar, California, which manufactures specialty lithium batteries for aerospace and medical applications. Management determined to close the site upon the expiration of its lease on the property and to redirect production through consolidation into existing locations. The Company currently estimates total charges in the exit to amount to $13.2 million. Cash charges are estimated to total $9.3 million primarily relating to severance and other costs to leave the site. Non-cash charges are estimated to be $3.9 million relating to fixed assets, inventory, and contract assets. The plan was substantially complete as the end of fiscal 2024.

During fiscal 2023, the Company recorded cash charges of $1.6 million related primarily related to severance costs and non-cash charges totaling $0.4 million primarily relating to contract assets.

The Company also recorded a non-cash write-off relating to inventories of $3.1 million, which was reported in cost of goods sold.

During the current quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company recorded cash charges of $0.4 million primarily related to relocation expenses.

Ooltewah

On June 29, 2022, the Company committed to a plan to close its facility in Ooltewah, Tennessee, which produced flooded motive power batteries for electric forklifts. Management determined that future demand for traditional motive power flooded cells will decrease as customers transition to maintenance free product solutions in lithium and TPPL. The Company currently estimates that the total charges for these actions will amount to approximately $18.5 million. Cash charges for employee severance related payments, cleanup related to the facility, contractual releases and legal expenses are estimated to be $9.2 million and non-cash charges from inventory and fixed asset write-offs are estimated to be $9.3 million. These actions will result in the reduction of approximately 165 employees. The plan was substantially complete as the end of fiscal 2024.

During fiscal 2023, the Company recorded cash charges relating to severance and manufacturing variances of $2.7 million and non-cash charges of $7.3 million relating to fixed asset write-offs. The Company also recorded a non-cash write-off relating to inventories of $1.6 million, which was reported in cost of goods sold.

During fiscal 2024, the Company recorded cash charges relating to site cleanup and decommissioning equipment of $4.4 million.


Fiscal 2021 Programs

Hagen, Germany

In fiscal 2021, we committed to a plan to close substantially all of our facility in Hagen, Germany, which produced flooded motive power batteries for electric forklifts. Management determined that future demand for the motive power batteries produced at this facility was not sufficient, given the conversion from flooded to maintenance free batteries by customers, the existing number of competitors in the market, as well as the near-term decline in demand and increased uncertainty from the pandemic. We plan to retain the facility with limited sales, service and administrative functions along with related personnel for the foreseeable future.

We currently estimate that the total charges for these actions will amount to approximately $60.0 million of which cash charges for employee severance related payments, cleanup related to the facility, contractual releases and legal expenses were estimated to be $40.0 million and non-cash charges from inventory and equipment write-offs were estimated to be $20.0 million. The majority of these charges have been recorded as of March 31, 2022. These actions resulted in the reduction of approximately 200 employees.

Effective tax rate11.6%9.2%2.4%



The Company’s income tax provision consists of federal, state and foreign income taxes. The tax provision for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2024 was based on the estimated effective tax rates applicable for the full years ending March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, respectively, after giving effect to items specifically related to the interim periods. Our effective income tax rate with respect to any period may be volatile based on the mix of income in the tax jurisdictions, in which we operate, changes in tax laws and the amount of our consolidated earnings before taxes.

The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has a framework to implement a global minimum corporate tax of 15% for companies with global revenues and profits above certain thresholds (referred to as Pillar 2), with certain aspects of Pillar 2 effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2023. While it is uncertain whether the U.S. will enact legislation to adopt Pillar 2, certain countries in which we operate have adopted legislation, and other countries are in the process of introducing legislation to implement Pillar 2. The impact of the enacted legislation is identified below. The Company will continue to monitor and evaluate as new legislation and guidance is issued.

The consolidated effective income tax rates for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2024 were 11.6% and 9.2%. The effective income tax rate increase in the first quarter compared to the prior year quarter is primarily due to a discrete foreign exchange tax benefit related to undistributed earnings in the first quarter of fiscal year 2024, impact of Pillar 2, and mix of earnings among tax jurisdictions.

Foreign income as a percentage of worldwide income is estimated to be 49% for fiscal 2025 compared to 51% for fiscal 2024. The foreign effective tax rates for the current quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2024 were 14% and 12%, respectively. The foreign effective tax rate increased in the first quarter compared to the first quarter of the prior year is primarily due to the impact of Pillar 2. Income from the Company's Swiss subsidiary comprised a substantial portion of the Company's overall foreign mix of income for both fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 and were taxed at an effective income tax rate of approximately 11% and 8%, respectively.

Financing activities provided cash of $50.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. During the first quarter of fiscal 2025, we borrowed $65.0 million under the Second Amended Revolver. Net repayments on short-term debt were $0.2 million. We purchased treasury stock totaling $11.6 million, paid cash dividends to our stockholders totaling $9.0 million, and received proceeds from stock options of $7.0 million.

Currency translation had a negative impact of $3.6 million on our cash balance in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the negative impact of $3.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. In the first quarter of fiscal 2025, principal currencies in which we do business such as the Euro, and Polish zloty generally weakened and the Swiss Franc and British pound strengthened versus the U.S. dollar.

As a result of the above, total cash and cash equivalents increased by $10.7 million to $344.1 million, in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to a decrease of $88.3 million to $258.3 million, in the first quarter of fiscal 2024.

Compliance with Debt Covenants

34
Table of Contents    
During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, we entered into a second amendment to the Amended Credit Facility (as amended, the “Second Amended Credit Facility”). As a result, the Second Amended Credit Facility, now scheduled to mature on September 30, 2026, consists of a $130.0 million senior secured term loan (the “Second Amended Term Loan”), a CAD 106.4 million ($84.2 million) term loan and an $850.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Second Amended Revolver”). This amendment resulted in a decrease of the Amended Term Loan by $150.0 million and an increase of the Amended Revolver by $150.0 million.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company entered into a third amendment to the 2017 Credit Facility (as amended, the “Third Amended Credit Facility”). The Third Amended Credit Facility provided a new incremental delayed-draw senior secured term loan up to $300 million (the “Third Amended Term Loan”), which was available to draw until March 15, 2023. During the fourth quarter, the Company drew $300 million in the form of the Third Amended Term Loan. The funds will mature on September 30, 2026, the same as the Company's Second Amended Term Loan and Second Amended Revolver. In connection with the agreement, the Company incurred $1.2 million in third party administrative and legal fees recognized in interest expense and capitalized $1.1 million in charges from existing lenders as a deferred asset. Additionally, the Company derecognized the capitalized deferred asset and recognized the $1.1 million as deferred financing costs.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company entered into a fourth amendment to the 2017 Credit Facility (as amended, the “Fourth Amended Credit Facility”). The Fourth Amended Credit Facility replaces the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) in the calculation of interest for both the Second Amended Revolver and the Second Amended Term Loan.

All obligations under our Fourth Amended Credit Facility are secured by, among other things, substantially all of our U.S. assets. The Fourth Amended Credit Facility contains various covenants which, absent prepayment in full of the indebtedness and other obligations, or the receipt of waivers, limit our ability to conduct certain specified business transactions, buy or sell assets out of the ordinary course of business, engage in sale and leaseback transactions, pay dividends and take certain other actions. There are no prepayment penalties on loans under this credit facility.

We are in compliance with all covenants and conditions under our Fourth Amended Credit Facility and Senior Notes. We believe that we will continue to comply with these covenants and conditions, and that we have the financial resources and the capital available to fund the foreseeable organic growth in our business and to remain active in pursuing further acquisition opportunities. See Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2024 Annual Report and Note 11 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a detailed description of our debt.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

A table of our obligations is contained in Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Contractual Obligations of our 2024 Annual Report. As of June 30, 2024, we had no significant changes to our contractual obligations table contained in our 2024 Annual Report.

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market Risks

Our cash flows and earnings are subject to fluctuations resulting from changes in raw material costs, foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. We manage our exposure to these market risks through internally established policies and procedures and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. Our policy does not allow speculation in derivative instruments for profit or execution of derivative instrument contracts for which there are no underlying exposures. We do not use financial instruments for trading purposes and are not a party to any leveraged derivatives. We monitor our underlying market risk exposures on an ongoing basis and believe that we can modify or adapt our hedging strategies as needed.

Counterparty Risks

We have entered into lead forward purchase contracts, foreign exchange forward and purchased option contracts, interest rate swaps, and cross currency fixed interest rate swaps to manage the risk associated with our exposures to fluctuations resulting from changes in raw material costs, foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company’s agreements are with creditworthy financial institutions. Those contracts that result in a liability position at June 30, 2024 are $18.6 million (pre-tax).

Table of Contents    
Those contracts that result in an asset position at June 30, 2024 are $4.6 million (pre-tax). The impact on the Company due to nonperformance by the counterparties has been evaluated and not deemed material.

We hedge our net investments in foreign operations against future volatility in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and Euro. On September 29, 2022, we terminated our cross-currency fixed interest rate swap contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $300 million and executed cross-currency fixed interest rate swap contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $150 million, maturing on December 15, 2027. Additionally, on July 2, 2024,we entered into cross-currency fixed interest rate swap contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $150 million, maturing on January 15, 2029. Depending on the movement in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and Euro at maturity, the Company may owe the counterparties an amount that is different from the notional amount of $300 million.

Excluding our cross currency fixed interest rate swap agreements, the vast majority of these contracts will settle within one year.

Interest Rate Risks

We are exposed to changes in variable U.S. interest rates on borrowings under our credit agreements, as well as short-term borrowings in our foreign subsidiaries. On a selective basis, from time to time, we enter into interest rate swap agreements to reduce the negative impact that increases in interest rates could have on our outstanding variable rate debt. At June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024 such agreements effectively convert $200.0 million of our variable-rate debt to a fixed-rate basis, utilizing the one-month Term SOFR, as a floating rate reference.

A 100 basis point increase in interest rates would have increased annual interest expense by approximately $0.9 million on the variable rate portions of our debt.

Commodity Cost Risks – Lead Contracts

We have a significant risk in our exposure to certain raw materials. Our largest single raw material cost is for lead, for which the cost remains volatile. In order to hedge against increases in our lead cost, we have entered into forward contracts with financial institutions to fix the price of lead. The vast majority of such contracts are for a period not extending beyond one year. We had the following contracts outstanding at the dates shown below:
 
Date$’s Under

March 31, 202450.0 53.0 0.94 8 
July 2, 202352.1 55.0 0.95 9 
(1) Based on the fiscal year lead requirements for the periods then ended.

For the remaining quarter of this fiscal year, we believe approximately 46% of the cost of our lead requirements is known. This takes into account the hedge contracts in place at June 30, 2024, lead purchased by June 30, 2024 that will be reflected in future costs under our FIFO accounting policy, and the benefit from our lead tolling program.

We estimate that a 10% increase in our cost of lead would have increased our cost of goods sold by approximately $17 million in the first quarter.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risks

We manufacture and assemble our products globally in the Americas, EMEA and Asia. Approximately 40% of our sales and related expenses are transacted in foreign currencies. Our sales revenue, production costs, profit margins and competitive position are affected by the strength of the currencies in countries where we manufacture or purchase goods relative to the strength of the currencies in countries where our products are sold. Additionally, as we report our financial statements in U.S. dollars, our financial results are affected by the strength of the currencies in countries where we have operations relative to the strength of the U.S. dollar. The principal foreign currencies in which we conduct business are the Euro, Swiss franc, British pound, Polish zloty, Chinese renminbi, Canadian dollar, Brazilian real and Mexican peso.

We quantify and monitor our global foreign currency exposures. Our largest foreign currency exposure is from the purchase and conversion of U.S. dollar-based lead costs into local currencies in Europe. Additionally, we have currency exposures from
36

intercompany financing and intercompany and third-party trade transactions. On a selective basis, we enter into foreign currency forward contracts and purchase option contracts to reduce the impact from the volatility of currency movements; however, we cannot be certain that foreign currency fluctuations will not impact our operations in the future.

At a point in time, we hedge approximately 5% - 10% of the nominal amount of our known annual foreign exchange transactional exposures. We primarily enter into foreign currency exchange contracts to reduce the earnings and cash flow impact of the variation of non-functional currency denominated receivables and payables. The vast majority of such contracts are for a period not extending beyond one year.

Gains and losses resulting from hedging instruments offset the foreign exchange gains or losses on the underlying assets and liabilities being hedged. The maturities of the forward exchange contracts generally coincide with the settlement dates of the related transactions. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on these contracts are recognized in the same period as gains and losses on the hedged items. We also selectively hedge anticipated transactions that are subject to foreign exchange exposure, primarily with foreign currency exchange contracts, which are designated as cash flow hedges in accordance with Topic 815 - Derivatives and Hedging. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, we also entered into cross-currency fixed interest rate swap agreements, to hedge our net investments in foreign operations against future volatility in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and Euro.

At June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, we estimate that an unfavorable 10% movement in the exchange rates would have adversely changed our hedge valuations by approximately $28.2 million and $27.7 million, respectively.

The nonsolicitation covenant, with the exception of the employee nonsolicitation provision, is only effective and enforceable once you earn, both at the time you enter the agreement and enforcement, at least or greater than sixty percent (60%) of the Highly Compensated Worker threshold under Colorado law. Furthermore, the restrictions on your conduct and activities contained in the noncompetition and nonsolicitation covenants, with the exception of the employee nonsolicitation provision, are limited only to such activities which will involve inevitable use, disclosure, or misappropriation of, or near-certain


influence by Participant’s knowledge of, Trade Secrets disclosed to Participant during the course of employment with the Company. For Colorado Participants, the Wrongful Competition and Wrongful Solicitation provisions of this Agreement shall be effective fourteen (14) days after you sign this Agreement. All other provisions of this Agreement shall be effective upon your signing this Agreement.
(4)General Exceptions. Participant understands that Participant’s non-compete and/or non-solicitation obligations in this Agreement shall not apply to Participant if Participant is covered under applicable state or local law prohibiting non-competes or non-solicits, including on the basis of Participant’s income at the time of enforcement. Examples of such prohibitions include, but are not limited to: California (Wrongful Competition and Wrongful Solicitation), the District of Columbia (Wrongful Competition for those earning under $150,000 during a consecutive 12-month period preceding the date of the Wrongful Competition), Illinois (low wage), Maryland (low wage), Oklahoma (Wrongful Competition), Minnesota (Wrongful Competition), North Dakota (Wrongful Competition and Wrongful Solicitation), Oregon (Non-Qualified Employee Under ORS 653.295), Rhode Island (low wage), and Virginia (low wage).

Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, none of the Options may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or otherwise encumbered or disposed of (or made the subject of a derivative transaction) to or with any third party otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and the Options shall be exercisable during Participant’s lifetime only by Participant.
3.Grant of Options. Participant is awarded the number of Options specified on the signature page hereof, at the Option Price indicated thereon. The Options are not intended to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code. Each Option shall entitle Participant to purchase, upon payment of the applicable Option Price in any manner provided by the Plan, one Share. The Shares issuable upon exercise of the Options are from time to time referred to herein as the “Option Shares.” For purposes of the Plan and this Agreement, the Date of Grant shall be as indicated on the signature page hereof. The Options shall be exercisable as provided in this Agreement.
4.Terms and Conditions of Options. The Options evidenced by this Agreement are subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a)Vesting. The Options shall vest and become exercisable as follows: one-third (1/3) of the Options shall vest and become exercisable on each of the first three anniversaries of the Date of Grant (each such one-third (1/3) of the Options which vest on each such anniversary shall be referred to herein as a “Tranche” and each such anniversary a Vesting Date) unless previously vested or forfeited in accordance with the Plan or this Agreement; provided, however, that to the extent then unvested, the Options shall immediately become vested and exercisable if:
i.Participant’s employment terminates due to death or Permanent Disability, or
ii.Participant’s employment terminates on or within two years after a Change in Control without Cause or for Good Reason.
Further, provided, in the event of Participant’s Retirement, a separate pro-rata portion of the Tranche of Options (to the extent then unvested) during which the Retirement occurs shall immediately become vested. The number of unvested Options that shall vest pro-rata upon Retirement shall be calculated by multiplying (A) the quotient obtained by dividing the number of completed months that Participant was employed by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries since


the most recent Vesting Date, or if no Vesting Date has yet occurred the number of months since the Date of Grant, by 36, by (B) the number of Options subject to this Agreement (rounding up to the nearest whole number), provided however, that, the pro-rata portion that vests shall only become exercisable on the date the applicable portion of each such Tranche would have otherwise become vested under the schedule described above in this Section 4(a) absent such Retirement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing sentences, upon a Participant’s termination of employment for any reason, the Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, waive any requirement for vesting then remaining and permit, for a specified period of time consistent with the first sentence of Section 4(b) hereof the exercise of the Options prior to the satisfaction of such requirement. Any fractional Options that would result from application of this Section 4(a) shall be aggregated and shall vest on the first anniversary of the Date of Grant.
(b)Option Period. The Options shall expire (to the extent not previously exercised or forfeited) on, and shall not be exercisable, following the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Date of Grant. In addition, all Options shall be subject to earlier expiration as provided herein or in the Plan, as follows:
i.if Participant’s employment terminates due to death or, Permanent Disability or on or after a Change in Control without Cause or for Good Reason, Participant may exercise the Options, to the extent then vested, at any time until the earlier of (A) one year following termination of employment and (B) the expiration date of the Options specified in this Section 4(b);
ii.if Participant’s employment is terminated due to Retirement, Participant may exercise the Options, to the extent then vested and exercisable, at any time until the expiration date of the Options specified in this Section 4(b);
iii.if Participant’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause prior to a Change in Control, Participant may exercise the Options, to the extent then vested, at any time until the earlier of (A) ninety (90) days following termination of employment and (B) the expiration date of the Options specified in this Section 4(b);
iv.if Participant voluntarily terminates employment with the Company, Participant may exercise the Options, to the extent then vested, at any time until the earlier of (A) sixty (60) days following termination of employment and (B) the expiration date of the Options specified in this Section 4(b); or
v.in the event of any other termination of Participant’s employment (including a termination by the Company for Cause), all of the Options (whether or not vested at the time of termination) shall, without any action on the part of any Person, immediately expire and be canceled without payment therefor.
Except as provided in Section 4(a) hereof or in the case of automatic vesting in connection with such termination event, upon termination of Participant’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary for any reason, all Options which have not theretofore vested shall, without any action on the part of any Person, immediately expire and be canceled without any payment therefor.
(c)Exercise. Subject to the Company’s Policy on Insider Trading, and Sections 4(d), 4(f), and 7 hereof, Participant may exercise any or all of the Options, to the extent vested and not forfeited. The date of exercise of an Option shall be the date on which the conditions provided in Sections 4(d), 4(f), and 7 hereof are satisfied.


(d)Payment. At the time of any exercise, Participant shall pay to the Company the Option Price of the shares as to which this Option is being exercised by delivery of consideration equal to the product of the Option Price and the number of shares purchased, together with any amounts required to be withheld for tax purposes under Section 17(c) of the Plan. Such consideration must be paid before the Company will issue the shares being purchased and must be in a form or a combination of forms acceptable to the Compensation Committee for that purchase, which forms may (but are not required to) include (i) cash; (ii) check or wire transfer; (iii) tendering (either actually or by attestation). Shares already owned by Participant, provided that the shares have been held for the minimum period required by applicable accounting rules to avoid a charge to the Company’s earnings for financial reporting purposes or were not acquired from the Company as compensation; (iv) to the extent permitted by applicable law, Cashless Exercise; or (v) such other consideration as the Compensation Committee may permit in its sole discretion; provided, however, that any Participant may, at any time, exercise any Vested Option (or portion thereof) owned by him pursuant to a Cashless Exercise.
(e)Stockholder Rights. Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares issuable upon exercise of the Options until Participant has made payment pursuant to Section 4(d) and a certificate or certificates evidencing such shares shall have been issued to Participant, and no adjustment shall be made for dividends or distributions or other rights in respect of any share for which the record date is prior to the date upon which Participant shall become the holder of record thereof.
(f)Limitation of Exercise. The Options shall not be exercisable unless the offer and sale of the Shares subject thereto have been registered under the 1933 Act and qualified under applicable state “blue sky” laws, or the Company has determined that an exemption from registration under the 1933 Act and from qualification under such state “blue sky” laws is available.
(g)Delivery of Shares. As soon as practicable following the exercise of any Options, the appropriate number of Shares issued in connection with such exercise shall be issued by the Company’s transfer agent, in the name of Participant by (a) paper certificate delivered to Participant, or (b) electronic delivery to the Company’s representative broker.
(h)Dividends and Distributions. Any Shares or other securities of the Company received by Participant as a result of a stock dividend or other distribution in respect of Option Shares shall be subject to the same restrictions as such Option Shares, and all references to Option Shares hereunder shall be deemed to include such Shares or other securities.
(i)Special Exercise Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or in this Agreement, if Participant is employed or resides in China or Italy, then Participant shall only exercise the Options granted hereunder using the “Cashless Exercise” method as defined in the Plan and shall not have the right to use any other method otherwise permitted under this Agreement.
5.Wrongful Competition and Wrongful Solicitation. Participant understands and agrees that Participant shall not engage in Wrongful Competition or Wrongful Solicitation.
6.Confidential Information and Trade Secrets.
(a)Access and Use.  Participant expressly acknowledges and agrees that, by virtue of Employee’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary and exercise of Participant’s duties for the Company or a Subsidiary, Participant will have access to and will use certain Confidential Information and Trade Secrets, and that such Confidential Information and Trade Secrets constitute confidential and proprietary business information and/or Trade Secrets of the Company


or its Subsidiaries, all of which is the Company’s exclusive property. Accordingly, Participant agrees that Participant shall not, and shall not permit any other person or entity to, directly or Indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Company: (a) use Confidential Information or Trade Secrets for the benefit of any person or entity other than the Company or its Subsidiaries; (b) remove, copy, duplicate or otherwise reproduce any document or tangible item embodying or pertaining to any of the Confidential Information or Trade Secrets, except as required to perform responsibilities for the Company or its Subsidiaries; and (c) while employed and thereafter, publish, release, disclose, deliver or otherwise make available to any third party any Confidential Information or Trade Secrets by any communication, including oral, documentary, electronic or magnetic information transmittal device or media.
(b)Duration of Confidential Information and Trade Secrets.  This obligation of non-disclosure and non-use shall last so long as the information remains confidential. Participant, however, understands that, if Participant primarily lives and works in any state requiring a temporal limit on non-disclosure clauses, Confidential Information shall be protected for no less than two (2) years following the Last Day. Participant also understands that Trade Secrets are protected by statute and are not subject to any time limits. Participant also agrees to contact the Company before using, disclosing, or distributing any Confidential Information or Trade Secrets if Participant has any questions about whether such information is protected information.
(c)Immunity under the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016.  Participant shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a Trade Secret that: (a) is made (i) in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or Indirectly, or to an attorney, and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (b) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Disclosures to attorneys, made under seal, or pursuant to court order are also protected in certain circumstances under said Act.
(d)Additional Legal Exceptions to Non-Disclosure Obligations.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent disclosure of information generally obtained through the job, information available to the public, and/or information you have a right to disclose as may be required by applicable law or regulation, especially with respect to a Federal or State administrative agency, equivalent State agency, or pursuant to the valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or an authorized government agency, provided that the disclosure does not exceed the extent of disclosure required by such law, regulation, or order. With respect to an order of a court of competent jurisdiction, Participant will promptly provide written notice to the General Counsel of the Company of any such order. If the Company chooses to seek a protective order or other remedy, Employee will cooperate fully with the Company. If the Company does not obtain a protective order or other remedy or waives compliance with certain provisions of this Agreement, Participant will furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information which, in the written opinion of counsel, is legally required to be disclosed and will use Participant’s best efforts to obtain assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded to such disclosed Confidential Information. In addition, nothing in this Agreement in any way prohibits or is intended to restrict or impede, and shall not be interpreted or understood as restricting or impeding, Participant from: (a) exercising Participant’s rights under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) (including with respect to engaging in concerted activities for the purpose of collective bargaining or other mutual aid or protection, discussing terms and conditions of employment, or otherwise engaging in protected conduct); (b) otherwise disclosing or discussing truthful information about unlawful employment practices (including unlawful discrimination, harassment, retaliation, or sexual assault).
(e)Return of Property. Participant agrees that upon the Last Day (or earlier if requested by the Company) to immediately return to the Company all property and information belonging to the Company or its Subsidiaries (in electronic or hard-copy form). Participant shall


also disclose to Company any passwords for Participant’s computer or other access codes for anything associated with Participant’s employment with the Company and/or its Subsidiaries, and shall not delete or modify any property prior to its return to the Company. Participant also shall provide the Company with access to any personal computer, tablet, phone, external hard drives, flash drives, cloud-based storage platforms, or any other personal device or storage location with Company information, whether or not such information is designated as confidential or proprietary, so that Company may remove or delete any Company information.
7.Taxes. This Section 7 applies only to (a) those Participants who are U.S. employees, and (b) those Participants who are employed by a Subsidiary of the Company that is obligated under applicable local law to withhold taxes with respect to the vesting or exercise of the Options. The Company or a designated Subsidiary of the Company shall have the right, prior to the delivery of any certificates evidencing Shares to be issued pursuant to this Agreement, to require Participant to remit to the Company or such Subsidiary any amount sufficient to satisfy any applicable (federal, foreign, state, or local) tax withholding requirements. Prior to the Company’s or the designated Subsidiary’s determination of such withholding liability, Participant may make an irrevocable election to satisfy, in whole or in part, such obligation to remit taxes by directing the Company or such Subsidiary to withhold Shares that would otherwise be received by Participant (up to the maximum amount of tax permitted to be withheld that will not result in adverse financial accounting consequences to the Company). Such election may be denied by the Compensation Committee in its discretion, or may be made subject to certain conditions specified by the Compensation Committee. The Company or its designated Subsidiary shall also have the right to deduct from all cash payments made pursuant to or in connection with any Award any applicable federal, foreign, state, or local taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payments.
8.No Obligation to Register. The Company shall be under no obligation to register any Option Shares as a result of the exercise of the Options pursuant to the Securities Act or any other federal or state securities laws.
9.Market Stand-Off. In connection with any underwritten public offering by the Company of its equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act for such period as the Company or its underwriters may request (such period not to exceed 180 days following the date of the applicable offering), Participant shall not, directly or indirectly, sell, make any short sale of, loan, hypothecate, pledge, offer, grant or sell any option or other contract for the purchase of, purchase any option or other contract for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of or transfer, or agree to engage in any of the foregoing transactions with respect to, any of the Options granted under this Agreement or any Option Shares resulting the exercise thereof without the prior written consent of the Company or its underwriters.
10.Protections Against Violations of Agreement. No purported sale, assignment, mortgage, hypothecation, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, gift, transfer in trust (voting or other) or other disposition of, or creation of a security interest in or lien on, any of the Options by any holder thereof in violation of the provisions of this Agreement or the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws of the Company, will be valid, and the Company will not transfer any Option Shares resulting from the exercise of Options on its books nor will any of such shares be entitled to vote, nor will any dividends be paid thereon, unless and until there has been full compliance with such provisions to the satisfaction of the Company. The foregoing restrictions are in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedies, legal or equitable, available to enforce such provisions.
11.Survival. This Agreement shall apply to and bind Participant and the Company and their respective permitted assignees and transferees, heirs, legatees, executors, administrators and legal successors. All agreements, representations, and warranties made herein and in the certificates delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the issuance to Participant of the Options and any Option Shares and shall continue in full force and effect. The terms of Section 5-7, 11, 12, 14, 16-20, and 22 shall expressly survive the forfeiture of any Options and the termination of this Agreement.


12.Notices. All notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed, if to Participant, to Participant’s attention at the mailing address set forth on the signature page of this Agreement (or to such other address as Participant shall have specified to the Company in writing) and, if to the Company, to the Company’s office at 2366 Bernville Road, Reading Pennsylvania, 19605, Attention: General Counsel (or to such other address as the Company shall have specified to Participant in writing). All such notices shall be conclusively deemed to be received and shall be effective, if sent by hand delivery, upon receipt, or if sent by registered or certified mail, on the fifth day after the day on which such notice is mailed.
13.Waiver. The waiver by either party of compliance with any provision of this Agreement by the other party shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by such party of a provision of this Agreement.
14.Authority of the Administrator. The Compensation Committee shall have the full authority to interpret and construe the terms of the Plan and this Agreement including, but not limited to, making all determinations regarding eligibility, vesting, forfeiture and the calculation of the number of Options or Option Shares awarded or credited under this Agreement. The determination of the Compensation Committee as to any such matter of interpretation, construction or calculation shall be final, binding and conclusive.
15.Representations. Participant has reviewed with Participant’s own tax advisors the applicable tax (U.S., foreign, state, and local) consequences of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Participant is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. Participant understands that Participant (and not the Company) shall be responsible for any tax liability that may arise as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
16.Investment Representation. Participant hereby represents and warrants to the Company that Participant, by reason of Participant’s business or financial experience (or the business or financial experience of Participant’s professional advisors who are unaffiliated with and who are not compensated by the Company or any affiliate or selling agent of the Company, directly or indirectly), has the capacity to protect Participant’s own interests in connection with the transactions contemplated under this Agreement.
17.Relief, Remedies and Enforcement.  Participant acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any provision of this Agreement by Participant will cause serious and irreparable injury to the Company that will be difficult to quantify and that money damages alone shall not adequately compensate the Company. In the event of a breach or threatened or intended breach of this Agreement by Participant, the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief, both temporary and final, enjoining and restraining such breach or threatened or intended breach. Participant further agrees that should Participant breach this Agreement, the Company will be entitled to any and all other legal or equitable remedies available to it. Participant shall also pay the Company all reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees the Company incurred because of Participant’s breach of any provisions of this Agreement.
18.Entire Agreement; Language; Governing Law. This Agreement and the Plan and the other related agreements expressly referred to herein set forth the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Participant will continue to be bound by all prior agreements Participant entered into with the Company relating to confidentiality, trade secrets, wrongful competition, wrongful solicitation, and restrictive covenants (“Prior Restrictive Agreements”). This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same agreement. The headings of sections and subsections herein are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not affect


the meaning of any of the provisions of this Agreement. This Agreement has been prepared in English and may be translated into one or more other languages.

19.Severability and Reformation.

It is the intention of the parties that the provisions hereof be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and policies of each jurisdiction in which enforcement may be sought, and that the unenforceability (or the modification to conform to such laws or policies) of any provisions hereof shall not render unenforceable, or impair, the remainder of the provisions hereof. Accordingly, if at the time of enforcement of any provision hereof, a court of competent jurisdiction holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope, or geographic area reasonable under such circumstances will be substituted for the stated period, scope or geographical area and that such court shall be allowed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period, scope and geographical area permitted by law. Furthermore, if any such restriction is held to be void but would be valid if part of the wording (including in particular, but without limitation, the definitions) were deleted, such restriction will apply with so much of the wording deleted as may be necessary to make it valid or effective.


20.Amendments; Construction. The Compensation Committee may amend the terms of this Agreement prospectively or retroactively at any time, but (unless otherwise provided under Section 18 of the Plan) no such amendment shall impair the rights of Participant hereunder without Participant’s consent.

The Company shall not be required to establish any fund or make any other segregation of assets to assure satisfaction of the Company’s obligations under the Agreement or Plan.

23.Survival.  All wrongful competition, wrongful solicitation, and confidential information/trade secret obligations in this Agreement shall survive the Last Day and the termination or expiration of this Agreement, and no dispute regarding any other provisions of this Agreement or regarding Participant’s employment or the termination of Participant’s employment shall prevent the operation and enforcement of these obligations.

APPENDIX A
to
Employee Stock Option Agreement
Under the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan

This Appendix A contains supplemental terms and conditions for awards of nonqualified stock options (“Options”) granted as of the Date of Grant set forth in the Agreement under the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to Participants who reside outside the United States or who are otherwise subject to the laws of a country other than the United States.
Participant has also received the Agreement applicable to the Award set forth therein. The Agreement, together with this Appendix A and the Plan are the terms and conditions of the grant of Options set forth in the Agreement. To the extent that this Appendix A amends, deletes or supplements any terms of the Agreement, this Appendix A shall control. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.
Section I of this Appendix A contains special terms and conditions that govern the Options outside of the United States. Section II of this Appendix A contains special terms and conditions that govern the Options in all countries, excluding Austria, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom. Section III of this Appendix A contains special terms and conditions that govern the Options in Austria, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom. Section IV of this Appendix A includes special terms and conditions in the specific countries listed therein.
This Appendix A may also include information regarding exchange controls, taxation of awards and certain other issues of which Participant should be aware with respect to participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control, tax and other laws concerning Options in effect as of July 1, 2024. Such laws are often complex and change frequently; the information may be out of date at the time Participant vests in or exercises the Options or sells shares acquired under the Plan. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that Participant should not rely on the information noted herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of Participant's participation in the Plan.
In addition, this Appendix A is general in nature, does not discuss all of the various laws, rules and regulations which may apply to Participant's particular situation and the Company does not assure Participant of any particular result. Accordingly, Participant is strongly advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in Participant's country apply to Participant's specific situation.
Finally, if Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which Participant is currently working, transferred employment after the Award was granted or is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes, the information contained herein may not be applicable to Participant in the same manner. In addition, the Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to what extent the terms and conditions contained herein will apply under these circumstances.
Section I. All Countries Outside the United States

1.    Nature of Grant. In accepting the Award, Participant acknowledges that:

(1)the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan;



(2)the grant of the Options is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Options, or benefits in lieu of Options, even if Options have been granted repeatedly in the past;

(3)all decisions with respect to future grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of Company;

(4)Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan;

(5)the Options and the underlying Shares subject to the Options are extraordinary items that do not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, and which is outside the scope of Participant's employment contract, if any;

(6)the Options and the underlying Shares subject to the Options are not intended to replace any pension rights, if any, or compensation;

(7)the Options and the underlying Shares subject to the Options, and the income and value of same, are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate;

(8)the grant of the Options and Participant's participation in the Plan will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate;

(9)the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty;

(10)if Participant obtains Shares upon exercise of Participant's Options, the value of those shares acquired may increase or decrease in value;

(11)in consideration of the grant of the Options, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Options resulting from termination of Participant's employment with the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws) and Participant irrevocably release the Company and the Subsidiaries and Affiliates from any such claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, Participant will be deemed irrevocably to have waived Participant's entitlement to pursue such claim;

(12)in the event of termination of Participant's employment (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), Participant's right to vest in the Options under the Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of the date that Participant is no longer actively employed and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active employment would not include a period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); the Compensation Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when Participant is no longer actively employed for purposes of Participant's Award;

(13)the Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Participant's participation in the Plan, or Participant's acquisition or sale of Common Stock;

(14)Participant is hereby advised to consult with Participant's personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan;



(15)unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Company in its discretion, the Options and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Options or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the shares of the Company; and

(16)neither the Company, any Subsidiary nor any Affiliate of the Company shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between Participant's local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Options or of any amounts due to Participant pursuant to the exercise of the Options or the subsequent sale of any shares acquired upon exercise.

2.    Payment of Taxes. The following provisions supplement Section 7 of the Agreement entitled “Taxes.”
(1)Regardless of any action the Company or the Subsidiary/Affiliate that employs Participant (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, Participant’s portion of social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Participant (“Tax-Related Items”), Participant acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer.
(2)Participant further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including, but not limited to, the grant of the Options, the issuance of Shares upon exercise of the Options, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such issuance and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to, and are under no obligation to, structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Options to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result.
(3)If Participant becomes subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the Date of Grant and the date of any relevant taxable event, Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
(4)Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (1) withholding in Shares to be issued or cash distributed upon exercise of the Options; (2) withholding from Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Participant by the Company and/or the Employer; (3) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon exercise of the Options either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization).
(5)To avoid negative accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, Participant shall be deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Options, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of Participant’s participation in the Plan.
(6)Participant shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may


refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares, if Participant fails to comply with this obligation.
3.    Insider Trading Restrictions/Market Abuse Laws. Participant acknowledges that, depending on Participant’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different), Participant may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws, which may affect Participant’s ability to acquire or sell Shares or rights to Shares (e.g., Options) under the Plan during such times as Participant is considered to have “inside information” (as defined by the laws in the applicable country). The insider trading and/or market abuse laws may be different from any Company Insider Trading Policy.

Among these requirements is an obligation to notify the Company’s Singapore Subsidiary or Affiliate in writing when Participant receives an interest (e.g., Options or Shares) in the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate. This notification must be made (a) within two (2) business days of acquiring or disposing of any interest in the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, or becoming a director, associate director or shadow director, whichever occurs last, and (b) upon any change in a previously disclosed interest (e.g., sale of Shares issued upon exercise and settlement of the Options).
South Africa
Payment of Taxes. The following provision supplements Section 1 (Payment of Taxes) of this Appendix A:
By accepting the Options, Participant agrees that, immediately upon exercise of the Options, Participant will notify the Employer of the amount of any taxable income realized. If Participant does not inform the Employer of the taxable income realized at exercise, and the Employer is subject to penalties or interest as a result of not being able to withhold Tax-Related Items, the Employer may recover any such penalty and interest amounts from Participant. In addition, if Participant fails to advise the Employer of the taxable income realized, Participant may be liable for a fine.
Securities Law Information. The grant of the Options and the Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the Options are considered a small offering under Section 96 of the South Africa Companies Act, 2008 (Act No. 71 of 2008).
Exchange Control Information. If Participant is a resident of South Africa, the Options may be subject to exchange control regulations in South Africa. In particular, Participant may be required to obtain approval from the South African Reserve Bank for payments (including Shares received or cash payments made pursuant to the Options) that Participant receives into accounts based outside of South Africa (e.g., a U.S. brokerage account). Participant should consult with Participant’s personal advisor(s) regarding any personal legal, regulatory or foreign exchange obligations Participant may have in connection with Participant’s participation in the Plan.
Sweden
Authorization to Withhold. The following provision supplements Section 1 (Payment of Taxes) of this Appendix A:

Employer have an obligation to withhold such Tax-Related Items, provided that such withholding would not, in the Company’s determination, result in adverse accounting consequences to the Company.
Switzerland
Securities Law Information. The Options are not intended to be publicly offered in or from Switzerland. Because the offer of the Options is considered a private offering, it is not subject to registration in Switzerland. Neither this document nor any other materials relating to the Options or the Plan (a) constitute a prospectus according to articles 35 et seq. of the Swiss Federal Act on Financial Services (“FinSA”), (b) may be publicly distributed nor otherwise made publicly available in Switzerland to any person other than an employee of the Company or Employer or (c) has been or will be filed with, approved or supervised by any Swiss reviewing body according to article 51 FinSA or any Swiss regulatory authority, including the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA).
United Arab Emirates
Securities Law Information. The Plan is only being offered to qualified Employees and is in the nature of providing equity incentives to employees of the Company’s Subsidiary in the United Arab Emirates. The Plan and the Agreement are intended for distribution only to such Employees and must not be delivered to, or relied on by, any other person. Participant should conduct Participant's own due diligence on the Options being granted pursuant to the Agreement. If Participant does not understand the contents of the Plan and/or the Agreement, Participant should consult an authorized financial adviser. The Emirates Securities and Commodities Authority and the Dubai Financial Services Authority have no responsibility for reviewing or verifying any documents in connection with the Plan. Further, the Ministry of the Economy and the Dubai Department of Economic Development have not approved the Plan or the Agreement nor taken steps to verify the information set out therein, and have no responsibility for such documents.
United Kingdom
Tax Withholding. The following provision supplements Section I (Payment of Taxes) of this Appendix A:
Participant expressly agrees that Participant is liable for all Tax-Related Items and hereby covenants to pay all such Tax-Related Items, as and when requested by the Company, the Employer and/or by Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HRMC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). Participant also hereby agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and the Employer against any Tax-Related Items that they are required to pay or withhold or have paid or will pay on Participant’s behalf to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Participant is a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act) and the indemnification of the Company and the Employer is viewed as a loan, Participant will be ineligible for such a loan to cover income tax. In the event that Participant is a director or executive officer and income taxes are not collected from or paid by Participant within ninety (90) days after the end of the tax year in which the event giving rise to the income tax obligation arose, the amount of any uncollected income tax may constitute a benefit to Participant on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions (“NICs”) may be payable. Participant acknowledges that Participant will be responsible for reporting any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for paying the Company or the Employer (as applicable) for any employee NICs due on this additional benefit which may be recovered from Participant by the Company or the Employer at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to herein.

The Company shall credit to a bookkeeping account maintained by the Company, or a third party on behalf of the Company, for Participant’s benefit, the number of Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder, each of which shall be deemed to be the equivalent of one Share.
(b)If the Company declares and pays a dividend or a distribution on Common Stock in the form of cash, then a number of additional Restricted Stock Units shall be credited to Participant as of the payment date for such dividend or distribution equal to the result of dividing (i) the product of the total number of Restricted Stock Units credited to Participant as of the record date for such dividend or distribution (other than previously settled or forfeited Restricted Stock Units) times the per share amount of such dividend or distribution, by (ii) the Fair Market Value of one Share as of the record date for such dividend or distribution. Any Restricted Stock Units credited to Participant under this subsection shall be or become vested or forfeited (as appropriate) to the same extent as the underlying Restricted Stock Units.
(c)If the Company declares and pays a dividend or distribution on the Common Stock in the form of additional shares, or there occurs a forward split of Common Stock, then a number of additional Restricted Stock Units shall be credited to Participant as of the payment date for such dividend or distribution or forward split equal to (i) the number of Restricted Stock Units credited to Participant as of the record date for such dividend or distribution or split (other than previously settled or forfeited Restricted Stock Units), multiplied by (ii) the number of additional shares actually paid as a dividend or distribution or issued in such split in respect of each outstanding Share. Any Restricted Stock Units credited to Participant under this subsection shall be or become vested or forfeited (as appropriate) to the same extent as the underlying Restricted Stock Unit.
3.Terms and Conditions.
(a)Vesting. All of the Restricted Stock Units shall initially be unvested. Twenty-five percent (25%) of the Restricted Stock Units (rounded up to the nearest whole number) shall vest on the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement and on each of the next three (3) successive
Page 5 of #NUM_PAGES#

anniversaries thereof (each such anniversary, a “Vesting Date”) unless previously vested or forfeited in accordance with the Plan or this Agreement (the “Normal Vesting Schedule”).
(i)Any Restricted Stock Units that fail to vest because the employment condition is not satisfied shall be forfeited, subject to the special provisions set forth in Subsections 3(a)(ii) through 3(a)(iv).
(ii)If Participant’s employment terminates due to death or Permanent Disability or in the event of a Change in Control where the holders of the Company’s Common Stock receive cash consideration for their Common Stock in consummation of the Change in Control, Restricted Stock Units not previously vested shall immediately become vested. With respect to any of the Restricted Stock Units that constitute “deferred compensation” as defined under Code Section 409A, for purposes of this Section 3(a)(ii) and any acceleration of the Restricted Stock Units upon a Change in Control, a Change in Control shall be deemed to occur only if, in addition to the requirements set forth in the Plan, the Change in Control also meets the requirements of IRS Reg. §1.409A-3(i)(5), to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of taxes thereunder.
(iii)If on or within two years after a Change in Control (other than a Change in Control described in Section 3(a)(ii) above), Participant terminates employment for Good Reason, or is terminated by the Company without Cause, Restricted Stock Units not previously vested shall immediately become vested.
(iv)In the event of Participant’s Retirement, the Compensation Committee may determine, in its sole discretion, whether and the manner in which Restricted Stock Units not previously vested (or any portion thereof) shall be vested and be settled pursuant to Section 3(d). In the absence of Compensation Committee action, upon such Retirement, the Restricted Stock Units which have not vested as of the date of such termination shall vest pro-rata as of the date of Participant’s Retirement. All such Restricted Stock Units which shall have not vested as a result of such Retirement shall be immediately and automatically forfeited without consideration of any kind and to the extent that the date Participant first becomes eligible for Retirement and the vesting date under this Section 3(a)(iv) are in different tax years, any amount payable under this subsection shall constitute the payment of nonqualified deferred compensation, subject to the requirements of Code Section 409A unless an exemption under the treasury regulations is available.
The number of unvested Restricted Stock Units that shall vest pro-rata upon Retirement (absent action to the contrary by the Compensation Committee) described in the penultimate sentence of the foregoing paragraph of this Section 3(a)(iv) shall be calculated by multiplying (A) the quotient obtained by dividing the number of completed months that Participant was employed by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries since the most recent Vesting Date or if no Vesting Date has yet occurred the number of months since the Date of Grant, by 48, by (B) the number of Restricted Stock Units subject to this Agreement.
(b)Restrictions on Transfer. Until the earlier of the applicable vesting date under the Normal Vesting Schedule, the date of a termination of employment due to death or Permanent Disability, the date of a Change in Control described in Section 3(a)(ii), or the date of a termination of employment on or within two years after a Change in Control described in Section 3(a)(iii), or as otherwise provided in the Plan, no transfer of the Restricted Stock Units or any of Participant’s rights with respect to the Restricted Stock Units, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, shall be permitted. Unless the Compensation Committee determines otherwise, upon any attempt to transfer any Restricted Stock Units or any rights in
Page 6 of #NUM_PAGES#

respect of the Restricted Stock Units before the earlier of the applicable vesting date under the Normal Vesting Schedule, the date of a termination of employment due to death or Permanent Disability, the date of a Change in Control described in Section 3(a)(ii), or the date of a termination of employment on or within two years after a Change in Control described in Section 3(a)(iii), such unit, and all of the rights related to such unit, shall be immediately and automatically forfeited by Participant without consideration of any kind.
(c)Forfeiture. Upon termination of Participant’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary for any reason other than death, Permanent Disability or one of the reasons set forth in Sections 3(a)(iii) and (iv), Participant shall forfeit any and all Restricted Stock Units which have not vested as of the date of such termination and such units shall revert to the Company without consideration of any kind.
(d)Settlement. Restricted Stock Units not previously forfeited shall be settled on the earlier of the applicable Vesting Date under the Normal Vesting Schedule, the date of a termination of employment due to death or Permanent Disability, the date of a Change in Control described in Section 3(a)(ii), the date of a termination of employment on or within two years after a Change in Control described in Section 3(a)(iii), or, unless otherwise provided by the Compensation Committee, the date of a termination of employment due to Retirement described in Section 3(a)(iv), by delivery of one Share for each Restricted Stock Unit being settled or, if determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion, by a payment of cash equal to the Fair Market Value of one Share.

(a)Access and Use.  Participant expressly acknowledges and agrees that, by virtue of Employee’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary and exercise of Participant’s duties for the Company or a Subsidiary, Participant will have access to and will use certain Confidential Information and Trade Secrets, and that such Confidential Information and Trade Secrets constitute confidential and proprietary business information and/or Trade Secrets of the Company or its Subsidiaries, all of which is the Company’s exclusive property. Accordingly, Participant agrees that Participant shall not, and shall not permit any other person or entity to, directly or Indirectly, without the prior written consent of the Company: (a) use Confidential Information or Trade Secrets for the benefit of any person or entity other than the Company or its Subsidiaries; (b) remove, copy, duplicate or otherwise reproduce any document or tangible item embodying or pertaining to any of the Confidential Information or Trade Secrets, except as required to perform responsibilities for the Company or its Subsidiaries; and (c) while employed and thereafter, publish, release, disclose, deliver or otherwise make available to any third party any Confidential Information or Trade Secrets by any communication, including oral, documentary, electronic or magnetic information transmittal device or media.

Disclosures to attorneys, made under seal, or pursuant to court order are also protected in certain circumstances under said Act.
(d)Additional Legal Exceptions to Non-Disclosure Obligations.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent disclosure of information generally obtained through the job, information available to the public, and/or information you have a right to disclose or as may be required by applicable law or regulation, especially with respect to a Federal or State administrative agency, equivalent State agency, or pursuant to the valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or an authorized government agency, provided that the disclosure does not exceed the extent of disclosure required by such law, regulation, or order. With respect to an order of a court of competent jurisdiction, Participant will promptly provide written notice to the General Counsel of the Company of any such order. If the Company chooses to seek a protective order or other remedy, Employee will cooperate fully with the Company. If the Company does not obtain a protective order or other remedy or waives compliance with certain provisions of this Agreement, Participant will furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information which, in the written opinion of counsel, is legally required to be disclosed and will use Participant’s best efforts to obtain assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded to such disclosed Confidential Information. In addition, nothing in this Agreement in any way prohibits or is intended to restrict or impede, and shall not be interpreted or understood as restricting or impeding, Participant from: (a) exercising Participant’s rights under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) (including with respect to engaging in concerted activities for the purpose of collective bargaining or other mutual aid or protection, discussing terms and conditions of employment, or otherwise engaging in protected conduct); (b) otherwise disclosing or discussing truthful information about unlawful employment practices (including unlawful discrimination, harassment, retaliation, or sexual assault).
(e)Return of Property. Participant agrees that upon the Last Day (or earlier if requested by the Company) to immediately return to the Company all property and information belonging to the Company or its Subsidiaries (in electronic or hard-copy form). Participant shall also disclose to Company any passwords for Participant’s computer or other access codes for anything associated with Participant’s employment with the Company and/or its Subsidiaries, and shall not delete or modify any property prior to its return to the Company. Participant also shall provide the Company with access to any personal computer, tablet, phone, external hard drives, flash drives, cloud-based storage platforms, or any other personal device or storage location with Company information, whether or not such information is designated as confidential or proprietary, so that Company may remove or delete any Company information.
6.Taxes.
(a)This Section 6(a) applies only to (a) all Participants who are U.S. employees, and (b) to those Participants who are employed by a Subsidiary of the Company that is obligated under applicable local law to withhold taxes with respect to the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units. Such Participant shall pay to the Company or a designated Subsidiary, promptly upon request, and in any event at the time Participant recognizes taxable income, or withholding of employment taxes is required, with respect to the Restricted Stock Units, an amount equal to the taxes the Company determines it is required to withhold under applicable tax laws with respect to the Restricted Stock Units. Participant may satisfy the foregoing requirement by making a payment to the Company in cash or, in accordance with rules and regulations promulgated by the Compensation Committee, by delivering already owned unrestricted Shares or by having the
Page 8 of #NUM_PAGES#

Company withhold a number of Shares in which Participant would otherwise become vested under this Agreement, in each case, having a value equal to the maximum amount of tax permitted to be withheld that will not result in adverse financial accounting consequences to the Company. Such shares shall be valued at their fair market value on the date as of which the amount of tax to be withheld is determined.
(b)Participant acknowledges that the tax laws and regulations and financial accounting principles and guidance applicable to the Restricted Stock Units and the disposition of the shares following the settlement of Restricted Stock Units are complex and subject to change.
1.Securities Laws Requirements. The Company shall not be obligated to transfer any shares following the settlement of Restricted Stock Units to Participant free of a restrictive legend if such transfer, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, would violate the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) (or any other federal or state statutes having similar requirements as may be in effect at that time).
2.No Obligation to Register. The Company shall be under no obligation to register any shares as a result of the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units pursuant to the Securities Act or any other federal or state securities laws.
3.Market Stand-Off. In connection with any underwritten public offering by the Company of its equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act for such period as the Company or its underwriters may request (such period not to exceed 180 days following the date of the applicable offering), Participant shall not, directly or indirectly, sell, make any short sale of, loan, hypothecate, pledge, offer, grant or sell any option or other contract for the purchase of, purchase any option or other contract for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of or transfer, or agree to engage in any of the foregoing transactions with respect to, any of the Restricted Stock Units granted under this Agreement or any shares resulting the settlement thereof without the prior written consent of the Company or its underwriters.
4.Protections Against Violations of Agreement. No purported sale, assignment, mortgage, hypothecation, transfer, pledge, encumbrance, gift, transfer in trust (voting or other) or other disposition of, or creation of a security interest in or lien on, any of the Restricted Stock Units by any holder thereof in violation of the provisions of this Agreement or the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws of the Company, will be valid, and the Company will not transfer any shares resulting from the settlement of Restricted Stock Units on its books nor will any of such shares be entitled to vote, nor will any dividends be paid thereon, unless and until there has been full compliance with such provisions to the satisfaction of the Company. The foregoing restrictions are in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedies, legal or equitable, available to enforce such provisions.
5.Rights as a Stockholder. Participant shall not possess the right to vote the shares underlying the Restricted Stock Units until the Restricted Stock Units have been settled in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan.
6.Survival of Terms. This Agreement shall apply to and bind Participant and the Company and their respective permitted assignees and transferees, heirs, legatees, executors, administrators and legal successors. The terms of Sections 4-6,12, 13, 15, 17-21 and 23 shall expressly survive the forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Units and the termination of this Agreement.
7.Notices. All notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed, if to Participant, to Participant’s attention at the mailing address set forth on the signature page of this Agreement (or to such other address as Participant shall have specified to the Company in writing) and, if to the Company, to the Company’s office at 2366 Bernville Road, Reading,
Page 9 of #NUM_PAGES#

Pennsylvania 19605, Attention: General Counsel (or to such other address as the Company shall have specified to Participant in writing). All such notices shall be conclusively deemed to be received and shall be effective, if sent by hand delivery, upon receipt, or if sent by registered or certified mail, on the fifth day after the day on which such notice is mailed.
8.Waiver. The waiver by either party of compliance with any provision of this Agreement by the other party shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by such party of a provision of this Agreement.
9.Authority of the Administrator. The Compensation Committee shall have full authority to interpret and construe the terms of the Plan and this Agreement, including but not limited to making all determinations regarding eligibility, vesting, forfeiture and the calculation of the number of Restricted Stock Units awarded or credited under this Agreement. The determination of the Compensation Committee as to any such matter of interpretation, construction or calculation shall be final, binding and conclusive.
10.Representations. Participant has reviewed with Participant’s own tax advisors the applicable tax (U.S., foreign, state, and local) consequences of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Participant is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. Participant understands that Participant (and not the Company) shall be responsible for any tax liability that may arise as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
11.Investment Representation. Participant hereby represents and warrants to the Company that Participant, by reason of Participant’s business or financial experience (or the business or financial experience of Participant’s professional advisors who are unaffiliated with and who are not compensated by the Company or any affiliate or selling agent of the Company, directly or indirectly), has the capacity to protect Participant’s own interests in connection with the transactions contemplated under this Agreement.
12.Relief, Remedies and Enforcement.  Participant acknowledges and agrees that a breach of any provision of this Agreement by Participant will cause serious and irreparable injury to the Company that will be difficult to quantify and that money damages alone shall not adequately compensate the Company. In the event of a breach or threatened or intended breach of this Agreement by Participant, the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief, both temporary and final, enjoining and restraining such breach or threatened or intended breach. Participant further agrees that should Participant breach this Agreement, the Company will be entitled to any and all other legal or equitable remedies available to it. Participant shall also pay the Company all reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees the Company incurred because of Participant’s breach of any provisions of this Agreement.
13.Entire Agreement; Language; Governing Law. This Agreement and the Plan and the other related agreements expressly referred to herein set forth the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Participant will continue to be bound by all prior agreements Participant entered into with the Company relating to confidentiality, trade secrets, wrongful competition, wrongful solicitation, and restrictive covenants (“Prior Restrictive Agreements”). This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same agreement. The headings of sections and subsections herein are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not affect the meaning of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

7.Severability and Reformation. The parties hereto recognize that the laws and public policies of various jurisdictions may differ as to the validity and enforceability of covenants similar to those set forth herein. It is the intention of the parties that the provisions hereof be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and policies of each jurisdiction in which enforcement may be sought, and that the unenforceability (or the modification to conform to such laws or policies) of any provisions hereof shall not render unenforceable, or impair, the remainder of the provisions hereof. Accordingly, if at the time of enforcement of any provision hereof, a court of competent jurisdiction holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope, or geographic area reasonable under such circumstances will be substituted for the stated period, scope or geographical area and that such court shall be allowed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period, scope and geographical area permitted by law.

8.Amendments; Construction. The Compensation Committee may amend the terms of this Agreement prospectively or retroactively at any time, but (unless otherwise provided under Section 18 of the Plan) no such amendment shall impair the rights of Participant hereunder without Participant’s consent.

Participant hereby agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Compensation Committee upon any questions arising under this Agreement.
10.Miscellaneous.

Participant acknowledges that the award granted under this Agreement is not an employment right, and is being granted at the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee. Participant shall not have any claim or right to receive grants of Restricted Stock Units or other awards under the Plan. Neither the Plan nor this Agreement, or any action taken or omitted to be taken hereunder or thereunder, shall be deemed to create or confer on Participant any right to be retained as an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof, or to interfere with or to limit in any way the right of the Company or any Affiliate or Subsidiary thereof to terminate the employment of Participant at any time.
(b)Unfunded Plan. No Participant and no beneficiary or other persons claiming under or through Participant, shall have any right, title, or interest by reason of any award under the Agreement to any particular assets of the Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate, or any Common Stock allocated or reserved for the purposes of this Agreement or subject to any Restricted Stock Unit as set forth herein. The Company shall not be required to establish any fund or make any other segregation of assets to assure satisfaction of the Company’s obligations under the Agreement or Plan.
(c)No Restriction on Right of Company to Effect Corporate Changes. Neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of stock or of options, warrants or rights to purchase stock or of bonds, debentures, preferred, or prior preference stocks whose rights are superior to or affect the Common Stock or the rights thereof or which are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of the assets or business of the Company, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.
(d)Assignment. The Company shall have the right to assign any of its rights, and by accepting these Restricted Stock Units, Participant hereby consents to an assignment. The Company shall have the right to delegate any of its duties under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates.

Page 12 of #NUM_PAGES#

(f)Clawback Policy. The Restricted Stock Units, and any cash or Shares delivered upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the terms of the clawback policy adopted by the Board of Directors (as such policy may be amended from time-to-time). Each payment in settlement of the Restricted Stock Units will be delivered as described above and taxable upon delivery in accordance with applicable tax law, but for purposes of California Labor Code Section 221, the Colorado Wage Claim Act, and any successor provision, will not be considered “wages” and will not be considered “earned” until the end of the second complete calendar year following delivery of the payment. For purposes of the foregoing, Participant expressly and explicitly authorizes the Company to issue instructions, on Participant's behalf, to any brokerage firm and/or third party administrator engaged by the Company to hold Participant's Shares, and other amounts acquired under the Plan to re-convey, transfer or otherwise return such Shares and/or other amounts to the Company.
14.Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the receipt of any benefits under this Agreement as a result of a termination of employment shall be subject to satisfaction of the condition precedent that Participant undergo a “separation from service” within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(h) or any successor thereto. In addition, if a Participant is deemed 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 provisions of any benefit that is required to be delayed pursuant to Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B), such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6) month period measured from the date of Participant's “separation from service” (as such term is defined in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(h)), or (ii) the date of Participant's death (the “Delay Period”). Within ten (10) days following the expiration of the Delay Period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section (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 Participant 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.
15.Survival.  All wrongful competition, wrongful solicitation, and confidential information/trade secret obligations in this Agreement shall survive the Last Day and the termination or expiration of this Agreement, and no dispute regarding any other provisions of this Agreement or regarding Participant’s employment or the termination of Participant’s employment shall prevent the operation and enforcement of these obligations.
16.Transfer of Employment.  In the event of a transfer of Participant’s employment between Company affiliates, this Agreement shall continue in effect. The succeeding Company affiliate shall succeed to all rights of the prior Company affiliate under this Agreement, including the right to enforce this Agreement (so long as this Agreement has not otherwise been superseded).
17.Electronic Signature.  Participant agrees that the Company may enforce this Agreement with a copy for which Participant has provided an electronic signature, and that such electronic signature may be satisfied by procedures that the Company or a third party designated by the Company has established or may establish for an electronic signature system, and Participant’s electronic signature shall be the same as, and shall have the same force and effect as, Participant’s written signature. By electronically accepting this Agreement, Participant agrees to the following: “This electronic contract contains my electronic signature, which I have executed with the intent to sign this Agreement.”

APPENDIX A
to
Award Agreement for Employees – Restricted Stock Units
Under the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan
This Appendix A contains supplemental terms and conditions for awards of Restricted Stock Units granted as of the Date of Grant set forth in the Agreement under the Amended and Restated 2023 Equity Incentive Plan to Participants who reside outside the United States or who are otherwise subject to the laws of a country other than the United States.
Participant has also received the Agreement applicable to the Restricted Stock Units set forth therein. The Agreement, together with this Appendix A and the Plan are the terms and conditions of the grant of Restricted Stock Units set forth in the Agreement. To the extent that this Appendix A amends, deletes or supplements any terms of the Agreement, this Appendix A shall control. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.
Section I of this Appendix A contains special terms and conditions that govern the Restricted Stock Units outside of the United States. Section II of this Appendix A contains special terms and conditions that govern the Restricted Stock Units in all countries, excluding Austria, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom. Section III of this Appendix A contains special terms and conditions that govern the Restricted Stock Units in Austria, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom. Section IV of this Appendix A includes special terms and conditions in the specific countries listed therein.
This Appendix A may also include information regarding exchange controls, taxation of awards and certain other issues of which Participant should be aware with respect to participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control, tax and other laws concerning Restricted Stock Units in effect as of July 1, 2024. Such laws are often complex and change frequently; the information may be out of date at the time Participant vests in the Restricted Stock Units or sell Shares acquired under the Plan. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that Participant should not rely on the information noted herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of Participant’s participation in the Plan.
In addition, this Appendix A is general in nature, does not discuss all of the various laws, rules and regulations which may apply to Participant’s particular situation and the Company does not assure Participant of any particular result. Accordingly, Participant is strongly advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in Participant’s country apply to Participant’s specific situation.
Finally, if Participant is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which Participant is currently working, transferred employment after the Restricted Stock Units were granted or is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes, the information contained herein may not be applicable to Participant in the same manner. In addition, the Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to what extent the terms and conditions contained herein will apply under these circumstances.
Section I.     All Countries Outside the United States
1.    Nature of Grant. In accepting the Restricted Stock Units, Participant acknowledges that:
(a)the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan;
Page 15 of #NUM_PAGES#

(b)the grant of the Restricted Stock Units is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Restricted Stock Units, or benefits in lieu of Restricted Stock Units, even if Restricted Stock Units have been granted repeatedly in the past;
(c)all decisions with respect to future grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of Company;
(d)Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan;
(e)the Restricted Stock Units and the underlying Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units are extraordinary items that do not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, and which is outside the scope of Participant’s employment contract, if any;
(f)the Restricted Stock Units and the underlying Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units are not intended to replace any pension rights, if any, or compensation;
(g)the Restricted Stock Units and the underlying Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units, and the income and value of same, are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate;
(h)the grant of the Restricted Stock Units and Participant’s participation in the Plan will not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate;
(i)the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty;
(j)if Participant obtains Shares upon settlement of Participant’s Restricted Stock Units, the value of those shares acquired may increase or decrease in value;
(k)in consideration of the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Units resulting from termination of Participant’s employment with the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws) and Participant irrevocably releases the Company, the Subsidiaries and the Affiliates from any such claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, Participant will be deemed irrevocably to have waived Participant’s entitlement to pursue such claim;
(l)in the event of termination of Participant’s employment (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), Participant’s right to vest in the Restricted Stock Units under the Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of the date that Participant is no longer actively employed and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active employment would not include a period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); the Compensation Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when Participant is no longer actively employed for purposes of Participant’s Restricted Stock Units;
Page 16 of #NUM_PAGES#

(m)the Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan, or Participant’s acquisition or sale of Common Stock;
(n)Participant is hereby advised to consult with Participant’s personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan;
(o)unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Company in its discretion, the Restricted Stock Units and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Restricted Stock Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the shares of the Company; and
(p)neither the Company, any Subsidiary nor any Affiliate of the Company shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between Participant’s local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Restricted Stock Units or of any amounts due to Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or the subsequent sale of any shares acquired upon settlement.
2.    Payment of Taxes. The following provisions supplement Section 6 of the Agreement entitled “Taxes.”
(a)Regardless of any action the Company or the Subsidiary/Affiliate that employs Participant (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax, Participant’s portion of social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Participant (“Tax-Related Items”), Participant acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer.
(b)Participant further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including, but not limited to, the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, the issuance of Shares upon vesting/settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such issuance and the receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalents; and (2) do not commit to, and are under no obligation to, structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result.
(c)If Participant becomes subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the Date of Grant and the date of any relevant taxable event, Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
(d)Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (1) withholding in Shares to be issued or cash distributed upon vesting/settlement of the Restricted Stock Units; (2) withholding from Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Participant by the Company and/or the Employer; (3) withholding from the proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon vesting/settlement of the Restricted Stock Units either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization).
Page 17 of #NUM_PAGES#

(e)To avoid negative accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, Participant shall be deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the vested Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of Participant’s participation in the Plan.
(f)Participant shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares, if Participant fails to comply with this obligation.
3.    Insider Trading Restrictions/Market Abuse Laws. Participant acknowledges that, depending on Participant’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different), Participant may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws, which may affect Participant’s ability to acquire or sell Shares or rights to Shares (e.g., Restricted Stock Units) under the Plan during such times as Participant is considered to have “inside information” (as defined by the laws in the applicable country). The insider trading and/or market abuse laws may be different from any Company Insider Trading Policy. Participant personally is responsible for ensuring compliance with any applicable restrictions and should consult with Participant’s personal legal advisor for additional information about any applicable restrictions and Participant’s obligations.
4.    Foreign Asset/Account and Exchange Control Reporting. Participant’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different) may have certain exchange controls and foreign asset and/or account reporting requirements which may affect Participant’s ability to purchase or hold Shares under the Plan or receive cash from Participant’s participation in the Plan (including from any dividends received or sale proceeds arising from the sale of Shares) in a brokerage or bank account outside Participant’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different). Participant may be required to report such accounts, assets or transactions to the tax or other authorities in Participant’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different). Further, Participant may be required to repatriate the Shares or proceeds acquired as a result of participating in the Plan to Participant’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different) through a designated bank/broker and/or within a certain time. Participant personally is responsible for ensuring compliance with any applicable reporting obligations and should consult with Participant’s personal legal advisor for additional information about such obligations.
5.    Compliance Obligations and Cooperation. As a condition to the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, Participant agrees to repatriate all payments attributable to the Shares and/or cash acquired under the Plan in accordance with local foreign exchange rules and regulations in Participant’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different). In addition, Participant also agrees to take any and all actions, and consents to any and all actions taken by the Company and its Affiliates and Subsidiaries and/or the Employer, as may be required to allow the Company and its Affiliates and Subsidiaries or the Employer to comply with local laws, rules and regulations in Participant’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different). Finally, Participant agrees to take any and all actions as may be required to comply with Participant’s personal obligations under local laws, rules and regulations in Participant’s country of residence (and country of employment, if different).
6.    Language. Participant acknowledges that Participant is sufficiently proficient in English, or, alternatively, Participant acknowledges that Participant will seek appropriate assistance, to understand the terms and conditions in the Agreement and Appendix A. Furthermore, if Participant has received the Agreement, Appendix A or any other document related to the Plan
Page 18 of #NUM_PAGES#

translated into a language other than English and if the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version will control.
7.    Foreign Asset/Account Reporting. Please be aware that Participant’s country of employment and/or residency may have certain foreign asset and/or account reporting requirements which may affect Participant's ability to acquire or hold Shares under the Plan or cash received from participating in the Plan (including from any dividends received or sale proceeds arising from the sale of Shares) in a brokerage or bank account outside Participant’s country of employment and/or residency.

Participant should consult with Participant’s personal advisor(s) regarding any personal legal, regulatory or foreign exchange obligations Participant may have in connection with Participant’s participation in the Plan.
Sweden
Authorization to Withhold. The following provision supplements Section 1 (Payment of Taxes) of this Appendix A:
Without limiting the Company’s and the Employer’s authority to satisfy their withholding obligations for Tax-Related Items as set forth in Section 6 of the Agreement, by accepting the Restricted Stock Units, Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer to withhold Shares or to sell Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant upon exercise to satisfy Tax-Related Items, regardless of whether the Company and/or the Employer have an obligation to withhold such Tax-Related Items, provided that such withholding would not, in the Company’s determination, result in adverse accounting consequences to the Company.
Switzerland
Securities Law Information. The Restricted Stock Units are not intended to be publicly offered in or from Switzerland. Because the offer of the Restricted Stock Units is considered a private offering, it is not subject to registration in Switzerland. Neither this document nor any other materials relating to the Restricted Stock Units or the Plan (a) constitute a prospectus according to articles 35 et seq. of the Swiss Federal Act on Financial Services (“FinSA”), (b) may be publicly distributed nor otherwise made publicly available in Switzerland to any person other than an employee of the Company or Employer or (c) has been or will be filed with, approved or supervised by any Swiss reviewing body according to article 51 FinSA or any Swiss regulatory authority, including the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA).

Securities Law Information. The Plan is only being offered to qualified Employees and is in the nature of providing equity incentives to employees of the Company’s Subsidiary in the United Arab Emirates. The Plan and the Agreement are intended for distribution only to such Employees and must not be delivered to, or relied on by, any other person. Participant should conduct Participant's own due diligence on the Restricted Stock Units being granted pursuant to the Agreement. If Participant does not understand the contents of the Plan and/or the Agreement, Participant should consult an authorized financial adviser. The Emirates Securities and Commodities Authority and the Dubai Financial Services Authority have no responsibility for reviewing or verifying any documents in connection with the Plan. Further, the Ministry of the Economy and the Dubai Department of Economic Development have not approved the Plan or the Agreement nor taken steps to verify the information set out therein, and have no responsibility for such documents.
United Kingdom
Restricted Stock Units Payable Only in Shares. Notwithstanding anything in the Agreement or the Plan to the contrary, Participant’s Restricted Stock Units shall be settled in Shares only (and many not be settled in cash).
Tax Withholding. The following provision supplements Section I (Payment of Taxes) of this Appendix A:
Participant expressly agrees that Participant is liable for all Tax-Related Items and hereby covenants to pay all such Tax-Related Items, as and when requested by the Company, the Employer and/or by Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HRMC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). Participant also hereby agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and the Employer against any Tax-Related Items that they are required to pay or withhold or have paid or will pay on Participant’s behalf to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Participant is a director or executive officer of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act) and the indemnification of the Company and the Employer is viewed as a loan, Participant will be ineligible for such a loan to cover income tax. In the event that Participant is a director or executive officer and income taxes are not collected from or paid by Participant within ninety (90) days after the end of the tax year in which the event giving rise to the income tax obligation arose, the amount of any uncollected income tax may constitute a benefit to Participant on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions (“NICs”) may be payable. Participant acknowledges that Participant will be responsible for reporting any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for paying the Company or the Employer (as applicable) for any employee NICs due on this additional benefit which may be recovered from Participant by the Company or the Employer at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to herein.
