Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1: Business and Organization

Organization

Custom Truck One Source, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiaries (“we,” “our,” “us,” or “the Company”) are engaged in the business of providing a range of products and services to customers through rentals and sales of specialty equipment, rentals and sales of aftermarket parts and services related to the specialty equipment, and repair, maintenance and customization services related to that equipment.

We are a specialty equipment provider to the electric utility transmission and distribution, telecommunications, rail, forestry, waste management and other infrastructure-related industries in North America. Our core business relates to our new equipment inventory and rental fleet of specialty equipment that is utilized by service providers in infrastructure development and improvement work. We offer our specialized equipment to a diverse customer base, including utilities and contractors, for the maintenance, repair, upgrade, and installation of critical infrastructure assets, including distribution and transmission electric lines, telecommunications networks and rail systems, as well as for lighting and signage. We rent, produce, sell and service a broad range of new and used equipment, including bucket trucks, digger derricks, dump trucks, cranes, service trucks, and heavy-haul trailers. We manage the business in three reporting segments: Equipment Rental Solutions (“ERS”), Truck and Equipment Sales (“TES”) and Aftermarket Parts and Services (“APS”).

Basis of Presentation

Our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires that these Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and most of the disclosures in these Notes be presented on a historical basis, as of or for the current interim period ended or comparable prior period.

The accompanying interim statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X, and the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2024 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of Custom Truck One Source, Inc. at that date. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and disclosures necessary for a fair statement of these interim statements, have been included. The results reported in these interim statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year or for any other periods. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with the Custom Truck One Source, Inc. audited consolidated financial statements included in the Custom Truck One Source, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Income Taxes

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09, Income Taxes—Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740) (“ASU 2023-09”), which expands income tax disclosure requirements to include additional information related to the rate reconciliation of our effective tax rates to statutory rates as well as additional disaggregation of taxes paid. The amendments in the ASU also remove disclosures related to certain unrecognized tax benefits and deferred taxes. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The amendments may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 on January 1, 2025 and will include the newly required disclosures in the notes to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Income Statement

In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires additional disclosures in the notes to financial statements, disaggregating specific expense categories within relevant income statement captions. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact of the requirements on our condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Total revenue $ 234,451 $ 699,264 $ 933,715 $ 210,157 $ 624,163 $ 834,320

Rental revenue is primarily comprised of revenues from rental agreements and freight charges billed to customers. Equipment sales recognized pursuant to sales-type leases are recorded within equipment sales revenue. Charges to customers for damaged rental equipment are recorded within parts and services revenue.

Receivables, Contract Assets and Liabilities

As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had net receivables related to contracts with customers of $96.4 million and $119.9 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had net receivables related to rental contracts and other of $92.6 million and $95.9 million, respectively.

The Company manages credit risk associated with its accounts receivable at the customer level. Because the same customers generate the revenues that are accounted for under both Topic 606 and Topic 842, the discussions below address how credit risk and the Company's allowance for credit losses impact the Company's total revenues.

The Company’s allowance for credit losses reflects its estimate of the amount of receivables that it will be unable to collect. The estimated losses are based upon a review of outstanding receivables, the related aging, including specific accounts if deemed necessary, and on the Company’s historical collection experience. The estimated losses are calculated using the loss rate method based upon a review of outstanding receivables, related aging, and historical collection experience. The Company's estimates reflect changing circumstances, including changes in the economy or in the particular circumstances of individual customers, and, as a result, the Company may be required to increase or decrease its allowance.

Accounts receivable, net consisted of the following:

(in $000s) June 30, 2025 December 31, 2024
Accounts receivable $ 206,499 $ 233,688
Less: allowance for doubtful accounts (17,505) (17,815)
Accounts receivable, net $ 188,994 $ 215,873

For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company wrote-off $5.3 million and $7.0 million, respectively, of receivables, net of recoveries.

When customers are billed for rentals in advance of the rental period, the Company defers recognition of revenue. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $4.4 million and $4.8 million, respectively, of deferred rental revenue. Additionally, the Company collects deposits from customers for orders placed for equipment and rentals. The Company had approximately $17.1 million and $21.5 million in deposits as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Of the $21.5 million deposit liability balance as of December 31, 2024, $20.8 million was recorded as revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2025 due to performance obligations being satisfied. The Company’s remaining performance obligations on its equipment deposit liabilities have original expected durations of one year or less.

The Company does not have material contract assets, and as such, did not recognize any material impairments of any contract assets.

Note 3: Sales-Type Leases

Revenue from rental agreements qualifying as sales-type leases was as follows:

Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30,
(in $000s) 2025 2024 2025 2024
Equipment sales $ 984 $ 1,554 $ 3,145 $ 4,572
Cost of equipment sales 949 1,229 2,788 4,051
Gross margin $ 35 $ 325 $ 357 $ 521

As these transactions remained under rental contracts, $1.8 million and $5.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $3.7 million and $11.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, were billed under the contracts as rentals. Interest income from financing receivables was $1.3 million and $3.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $2.3 million and $6.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Note 4: Inventory

Whole goods inventory is comprised of chassis, attachments (i.e., boom cranes, aerial lifts, digger derricks, dump bodies, etc.) and the in-process costs incurred in the final assembly of those units. As part of the business model, the Company sells unassembled individual whole goods and whole goods with varying levels of customization direct to consumers or dealers. Whole goods inventory also includes new equipment purchased specifically for resale to customers. Inventory consisted of the following:

(in $000s) June 30, 2025 December 31, 2024
Whole goods $ 958,697 $ 913,571
Aftermarket parts and services inventory 130,548 135,733
Inventory $ 1,089,245 $ 1,049,304

Note 5: Floor Plan Financing

Floor plan payables represent financing arrangements to facilitate the Company’s purchase of new and used trucks, cranes, and construction equipment inventory. All floor plan payables are collateralized by the inventory financed. These payables become due and payable upon the sale, transfer, or reclassification of each unit of inventory. Certain floor plan arrangements require the Company to satisfy various financial ratios consistent with those under the ABL Facility (as defined below). As of June 30, 2025, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

The amounts owed under floor plan payables are summarized as follows:

ABL Facility

The Company and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries are party to an asset-based revolving credit agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”), consisting of a $950.0 million first lien senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Facility”), which matures on August 9, 2029, or, if earlier, the date that is 91 days prior to the maturity date of the Company’s existing senior notes or any debt that refinances such existing notes. Borrowings under the ABL Facility bear interest at a floating rate, which, at the Company’s election, could be (a) in the case of U.S. dollar denominated loans, either (i) SOFR plus an applicable margin or (ii) the base rate plus an applicable margin; or (b) in the case of Canadian dollar denominated loans, the term Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (the “CORRA” rate) plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin varies based on Average Availability (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) from (a) with respect to base rate loans, 0.50% to 1.00% and (b) with respect to SOFR loans and CORRA rate loans, 1.50% to 2.00%.

Note 8: Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share includes the effects of potentially dilutive shares of common stock, if dilutive. Potentially dilutive effects include the exercise of warrants, contingently issuable shares, and share-based compensation. On July 31, 2024, all of the Company’s stock purchase warrants expired and were unexercised. Our potentially dilutive shares aggregated 4.6 million and 4.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and 30.4 million and 30.2 million for the same periods in 2024, and were not included in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share because the impact would have been anti-dilutive.

The following tables set forth the computation of basic and dilutive earnings (loss) per share:

Three Months Ended June 30, 2025 Three Months Ended June 30, 2024
(in $000s, except per share data) Net Income (Loss) Weighted Average Shares Per Share Amount Net Income<br>(Loss) Weighted Average Shares Per Share Amount
Basic earnings (loss) per share $ (28,380) 226,477 $ (0.13) $ (24,478) 239,727 $ (0.10)

Note 9: Equity

Preferred Stock

As of both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we were authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share, with such designation, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our board of directors. As of both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

Common Stock

As of both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we were authorized to issue 500,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share.

On August 2, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program, allowing for the repurchase of up to $30 million of the Company’s shares of common stock, which authorization was further increased by $25 million of shares on September 14, 2023, and increased again by $25 million of shares on March 11, 2024, upon exhaustion of prior authorization. Under the repurchase program, repurchases can be made from time to time using a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, all in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and other applicable legal requirements. The specific timing, price and size of purchases will depend on prevailing stock prices, general economic and market conditions, and other considerations. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of its common stock, and the repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion. At June 30, 2025, $1.9 million was available under the stock repurchase program.

Earnout Shares

Pursuant to the Stockholders’ Agreement dated July 31, 2019 (as amended and restated from time to time, the “Stockholders’ Agreement”), certain stockholders agreed to restrictions on approximately 3,100,000 of their shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Earnout Shares”). The Earnout Shares shall be automatically forfeited by the holders thereof to the Company for no consideration with respect to (i) 2.8 million shares unless the trading price of the common stock equals or exceeds certain price targets by July 31 2024 (the “Minimum and Second Target Earnout Shares”), which Minimum and Second Target Earnout Shares were forfeited on July 31, 2024; and (ii) approximately 0.3 million shares unless the trading price of the common stock equals or exceeds $19.00 per share for any period of 20 trading days out of 30 consecutive trading days to and including July 31, 2026 (the “Maximum Target Earnout Shares”).

Energy Capital Partners (ECP) Stock Repurchase

On January 30, 2025, the Company purchased 8,143,635 shares of the Company’s common stock from affiliates of ECP (“Repurchase from ECP”), at a purchase price of $4.00 per share, which represents an approximately 23% discount from the price of $5.19 per share of common stock at the close of trading on January 29, 2025, for an aggregate purchase price of $32.6 million. The transaction was

approved by the Company’s Board of Directors and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors and the purchased shares are held in treasury.

Note 10: Fair Value Measurements

The FASB accounting standards provide a comprehensive framework for measuring fair value and sets forth a definition of fair value and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable value inputs.

The following table sets forth the carrying values (exclusive of deferred financing fees) and fair values of our financial liabilities:

Fair Value
(in 000s) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
June 30, 2025
ABL Facility 670,475 $ $ 670,475 $
2029 Secured Notes 887,800
2023 Credit Facility 17,474
Other notes payable 22,753
December 31, 2024
ABL Facility 582,900 $ $ 582,900 $
2029 Secured Notes 859,050
2023 Credit Facility 17,733
Other notes payable 27,102

All values are in US Dollars.

The carrying amounts of the ABL Facility, 2023 Credit Facility and other notes payable approximated fair value as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 based upon terms and conditions available to the Company at those dates in comparison to the terms and conditions of its outstanding debt. The estimated fair value of the 2029 Secured Notes is calculated using Level 2 inputs, based on bid prices obtained from brokers.

Note 11: Income Taxes

Interim Income Tax Expense (Benefit) – Our income tax expense or benefit reflects a combination of income taxes in foreign jurisdictions and certain U.S. states. We have federal and state net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) and non-deductible interest expense carryforwards in the U.S. that may be applied to reduce taxable income in current and future tax years. Some of these carryforwards are subject to annual usage limitations and expiration, while other state NOLs and a portion of federal NOLs do not have limitations or expiration. We carry a valuation allowance against our U.S. carryforwards, which results in no net income tax expense in our earnings in periods when additional NOLs are generated or when existing NOLs are utilized. Certain states that we operate in have rules regarding the deductibility of items that diverge from U.S. federal deductibility rules and in addition, a number of these states have placed limitations on the usage of NOLs to offset taxable income apportioned to those states. Our overall effective tax rate is affected by a number of factors, including the relative amounts of income we earn in different tax jurisdictions, tax law changes, certain non-deductible expenses, the changes in our valuation allowance and divergence of state rules from federal rules. The factors result in an effective tax rate that differs from statutory rates.

For interim periods, we estimate our annual effective tax rate, exclusive of discrete items, which is derived primarily by our estimate of taxable income or losses for our applicable jurisdictions together with estimates of changes to our valuation allowance. The estimated annual effective tax rate is recorded in interim periods based on year-to-date income or loss before income taxes. Accordingly, income tax expense or benefit in quarterly periods reflects the impacts of changes to our annual effective tax rate. Because of the impacts of (i) the U.S. carryforwards’ valuation allowances, (ii) taxes in foreign jurisdictions and (iii) taxes in U.S. states that diverge from U.S. federal deductibility rules, our effective tax rate may fluctuate between a positive and a negative rate. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, our income tax expense is comprised of $6.2 million of state income tax expense and $3.6 million of foreign income tax expense, resulting in an effective tax rate of (26.9)%. The effective tax rate was (3.0)% in the six months ended June 30, 2024. Due to the change in our estimated annual effective tax rate, an adjustment of $17.5 million was recorded to income tax expense in the three-month period ended June 30, 2025.

Recent Tax Legislation – On July 4, 2025, the President signed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) into law. This act introduces significant changes to tax law and other areas affecting company operations, including items such as extensions of provisions previously enacted under the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, changes to business interest deductions, or modifications to

depreciation deductions and impacts on energy tax credits. While the effects of these tax law changes will not be reflected in interim or annual provisions for the period ended June 30, 2025, we are evaluating the potential impact of the OBBBA on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for future periods. Specific potential impacts that are being assessed could include effects on future tax expense, cash flows from operations due to new deductions, or potential impacts on investment decisions related to certain credits.

Note 12: Commitments and Contingencies

We record a liability when we believe that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required to determine both probability and the estimated amount. We review these provisions at least quarterly and adjust these provisions to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and updated information.

Legal Matters

In the normal course of business, there are various claims in process, matters in litigation, and other contingencies. At this time, no claims of these types, certain of which are covered by insurance policies, have had a material effect on the Company. Certain jurisdictions in which the Company operates do not allow insurance recoveries related to punitive damages. For matters pertaining to the pre-acquisition activities of Custom Truck One Source, L.P. (“Custom Truck LP”), the sellers of Custom Truck LP have agreed to indemnify the Company for losses arising out of the breach of pre-closing covenants in the purchase agreement and certain indemnified tax matters discussed below, with recourse limited to $10.0 million and $5.0 million escrow accounts, respectively.

From time to time, the Company is audited by state and local taxing authorities. These audits typically focus on the Company’s withholding of state-specific sales tax and rental-related taxes.

Custom Truck LP’s withholdings of federal excise taxes for each of the four quarterly periods during 2015 are currently under audit by the IRS. The IRS issued an assessment on October 28, 2020 in an aggregate amount of $2.4 million for the 2015 periods, alleging that certain types of sold equipment are not eligible for the Mobile Machinery Exemption set forth in the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). An appeal was filed on January 28, 2021. Based on management’s understanding of the facts and circumstances, including the relevant provisions of the Code, and historical precedent, including previous successful appeals of similar assessments in prior years, management does not believe the likelihood of a loss resulting from the IRS assessment to be probable at this time.

While it is not possible to predict the outcome of the foregoing matters with certainty, it is the opinion of management that the final outcome of these matters will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Purchase Commitments

We enter into purchase agreements with manufacturers and suppliers of equipment for our rental fleet and inventory. All of these agreements are cancellable within a specified notification period to the supplier.

Note 13: Related Parties

Note 14: Segments

Our operations are primarily organized and managed by operating segment. Operating segment performance and resource allocations are primarily based on gross profit. Gross profit aids the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in managing the inventory levels and rental fleet, entering into significant revenue contracts, expanding into new markets or launching new products, making capital expenditures, designing and implementing key marketing strategies, personnel changes, and approving operating budgets. Significant expense categories that are regularly reviewed by the operating segments’ CODM are disclosed below. The CODM for all segments is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. We manage the business in three reporting segments: Equipment Rental Solutions (“ERS”), Truck and Equipment Sales (“TES”) and Aftermarket Parts and Services (“APS”). Transactions between our segments consist of equipment produced by TES that is sold to ERS for inclusion in its fleet of rental equipment. Additionally, TES and APS provide repair and maintenance services to ERS for maintenance of its rental fleet. Transactions between segments are at cost and intersegment sales and purchases are eliminated in consolidation.

The Company’s segment results are presented in the tables below:

Custom Truck One Source, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiaries (“we,” “our,” “us,” or “the Company”) are engaged in the business of providing a range of products and services to customers through rentals and sales of specialty equipment, rentals and sales of aftermarket parts and services related to the specialty equipment, and repair, maintenance and customization services related to that equipment.

We are a specialty equipment provider to the electric utility transmission and distribution, telecommunications, rail, forestry, waste management and other infrastructure-related industries in North America. Our core business relates to our new equipment inventory and rental fleet of specialty equipment that is utilized by service providers in infrastructure development and improvement work. We offer our specialized equipment to a diverse customer base, including utilities and contractors, for the maintenance, repair, upgrade, and installation of critical infrastructure assets, including distribution and transmission electric lines, telecommunications networks and rail systems, as well as for lighting and signage. We rent, produce, sell and service a broad range of new and used equipment, including bucket trucks, digger derricks, dump trucks, cranes, service trucks, and heavy-haul trailers. We manage the business in three reporting segments: Equipment Rental Solutions (“ERS”), Truck and Equipment Sales (“TES”) and Aftermarket Parts and Services (“APS”).

Financial and Performance Measures

Financial Measures

Revenue — As a full-service equipment provider, we generate revenue through renting, selling, assembling, upfitting, and servicing new and used heavy-duty trucks and cranes, as well as the sale of related parts. We also sell and rent specialized tools on an individual basis and in kits. Rental revenue is primarily comprised of revenues from rental agreements and freight charges billed to customers. The Company records changes in estimated collectability directly against rental revenue. Equipment sales revenue reflects the value of vocational trucks and other equipment sold to customers as well as upfit services. Parts and service revenue is derived from maintenance and repair services, and parts, tools and accessories sold directly to customers. Rental revenue excludes active rental contracts which qualify to be accounted for as sales-type leases.

Cost of rental revenue — Cost of rental revenue reflects repairs and maintenance costs of rental equipment, parts costs, labor and other overheads related to maintaining the rental fleet, and freight associated with the shipping of rental equipment.

Depreciation of rental equipment — Depreciation of rental equipment is comprised of depreciation expense on the rental fleet. We allocate the cost of rental equipment generally over the rentable life of the equipment. The depreciation allocation is based upon estimated lives ranging from five to seven years. The cost of equipment is depreciated to an estimated residual value using the straight-line method.

Cost of equipment and parts and services sales — Cost of equipment sales reflects production and inventory costs associated with new units sold, parts costs, labor and other overheads related to production, and freight associated with the shipping and receiving of equipment and parts. Cost of equipment sales also includes the net book value of rental units sold, including active rental contracts which qualify to be accounted for as sales-type leases.

Selling, general and administrative expenses — Selling, general and administrative expenses include sales compensation, fleet licensing fees and corporate expenses, including salaries, stock-based compensation expense, insurance, advertising costs, professional services, fees earned on customer arranged financing, gains or losses resulting from insurance settlements, and information technology costs.

Amortization and non-rental depreciation — Amortization expense relates to intangible assets such as customer lists, trade names, etc. Non-rental depreciation expense reflects the depreciation of property and equipment that is not part of the rental fleet.

Transaction expenses and other — Transaction expenses and other include costs related to acquisitions of businesses; costs associated with closed operations; costs associated with restructuring and business optimization activities (inclusive of systems establishment costs); employee retention and/or severance costs; costs related to start-up/preopenings and openings of locations; reconfiguration or consolidation of facilities and equipment conversion costs.

Financing and other expense (income) — Financing and other expense (income) reflects the financing expense (income) associated with lease agreements qualifying to be accounted for as a sales-type lease, foreign currency gains and losses related to our Canadian operations, as well as other miscellaneous gains or losses from non-operating activities. Also included in financing and other expense (income) are the unrealized remeasurement gains and losses related to derivative financial instruments.

Interest expense — Interest expense consists of contractual interest expense on outstanding debt obligations, floor plan financing facilities, amortization of deferred financing costs and other related financing expenses.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit) — We have net operating loss carryforward and disallowed interest deduction carryforward assets, which are generally available to be used to offset taxable income generated in future years. Due to limitations on the use of these carryforwards under U.S. federal and state income tax regulations, we record valuation allowances to reduce the carryforward assets to amounts that we estimate will be realized. Accordingly, income tax expense or benefit generally is comprised of changes to these valuation allowance estimates and does not reflect taxes on current period income (or tax benefit on current period losses). For these reasons, our effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory tax rate.

Operating Metrics

We consider the following key operational metrics, which are consistent with those defined by the American Rental Association, when evaluating our performance and making day-to-day operating decisions:

Ending OEC — Ending original equipment cost (“OEC”) is the original equipment cost of units at the end of the measurement period. OEC represents the original equipment cost, and excludes the effect of adjustments to rental equipment fleet acquired in business combinations. OEC is the basis for calculating certain of the measures set forth below. Additionally, the pricing of our rental contracts and equipment sales prices for our equipment is based upon OEC, and we measure a rate of return from our rentals and sales using OEC. OEC is a widely used industry metric to compare fleet dollar value independent of depreciation.

Average OEC on rent — Average OEC on rent is calculated as the weighted-average OEC on rent during the stated period.

Fleet utilization — Fleet utilization is defined as the total number of days the rental equipment was rented during a specified period of time divided by the total number of days available during the same period and weighted based on OEC. Utilization is a measure of fleet efficiency expressed as a percentage of time the fleet is on rent and is considered to be an important indicator of the revenue generating capacity of the fleet.

OEC on rent yield — OEC on rent yield (“ORY”) is a measure of return realized by our rental fleet during a period. ORY is calculated as rental revenue (excluding freight recovery and ancillary fees) during the stated period divided by the average OEC on rent for the same period. For periods less than 12 months, ORY is adjusted to an annualized basis.

Sales order backlog — Sales order backlog consists of purchase orders received for customized and stock equipment. Sales order backlog should not be considered an accurate measure of future net sales.

Operating Segments

We operate in three reportable operating segments: Equipment Rental Solutions, Truck and Equipment Sales and Aftermarket Parts and Services.

Equipment Rental Solutions (“ERS”) Segment — We own a broad range of new and used specialty equipment, including truck-mounted aerial lifts, cranes, service trucks, dump trucks, trailers, digger derricks and other machinery and equipment. As of June 30, 2025, this equipment (the “rental fleet”) is comprised of approximately 10,300 units. The majority of our rental fleet can be used across a variety of end-markets, which coincides with the needs of many of our customers who operate in multiple end-markets. As is customary for equipment rental companies, we sell used equipment out of our rental fleet to end user customers. These sales are often made in response to specific customer requests. These sales offer customers an opportunity to buy well-maintained equipment with long remaining useful lives and enable us to effectively manage the age and mix of our rental fleet to match current market demand. We also employ rental purchase options (“RPOs”) on a select basis, which provide a buyout option with an established purchase price that decreases over time as rental revenue is collected. Customers are given credit against such purchase price for a portion of the amounts paid over the life of the rental, allowing customers the flexibility of a rental with the option to purchase at any time at a known price. Activities in our ERS segment consist of the rental and sale from the rental fleet of the foregoing products.

Truck and Equipment Sales (“TES”) Segment — We offer a broad variety of new equipment for sale to be used across our end-markets, which can be modified to meet our customers’ specific needs. We believe that our integrated production capabilities and extensive knowledge gained over a long history of selling equipment have established us as a trusted partner for customers seeking tailored solutions with short lead times. In support of these activities, we primarily employ a direct-to-customer sales model, leveraging our dedicated sales force of industry and product managers, who are focused on driving national and local sales. We also opportunistically engage in the sale of used equipment purchased from third parties or received via trade-ins from new equipment sales customers. In the majority of these cases, we will sell used equipment directly to customers, rather than relying on auctions. Activities in our TES segment consist of the production and sale of new and used specialty equipment and vocational trucks, which includes equipment from leading original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) across our end-markets, as well as our Load KingTM brand.

Aftermarket Parts and Services (“APS”) Segment — The APS segment includes the sale of specialized aftermarket parts, including captive parts related to our Load KingTM brand, used in the maintenance and repair of the equipment we sell and rent. Specialized tools, including stringing blocks, insulated hot stick, and rigging equipment, are sold or rented to our customers on an individual basis or in packaged specialty kits. We also provide truck and equipment maintenance and repair services, which are executed throughout our nationwide branch network and fleet of mobile technicians supported by our 24/7 call center based in Kansas City, Missouri.

Total Revenue - The increase in total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same periods in 2024 is a result of strong new equipment sales during second quarter of 2025 as well as higher rental revenue driven by higher average OEC on rent.

Cost of Revenue, Excluding Rental Equipment Depreciation - The increase in cost of revenue, excluding rental equipment depreciation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same periods in 2024, was driven primarily by the increase in equipment sales volume during the quarter.

Depreciation of Rental Equipment - Depreciation of our rental equipment increased in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same periods in 2024, as a result of higher rental equipment levels.

Operating Expenses - Operating expenses increased in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same periods in 2024, primarily as a result of an increase in general and administrative expenses due to increased compensation.

Total Other Expense - Other expense remained flat for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, and increased for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024 primarily due to a decrease in interest income from financing receivables.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit) - Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was $17.5 million and $9.8 million, respectively. Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025 reflects an adjustment to our estimated annual effective tax rate resulting from changes in expected taxable income in different tax jurisdictions. Despite this change, we expect annual cash taxes to be paid to remain at a level consistent with previous years.

Net Income (loss) - Net loss increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same periods in 2024, primarily due to higher income tax expense.

Operating Metrics

We principally evaluate operational performance based on the following metrics: ending OEC, average OEC on rent, fleet utilization, and OEC on rent yield. We also report sales order backlog related to our customers’ orders for new vocational heavy duty trucks as an indicator of the demand environment for our products.

We believe that our liquidity sources and operating cash flows are sufficient to address our operating, debt service and capital requirements, including investments in our rental fleet, over the next 12 months and beyond. As of June 30, 2025, we had $5.3 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $3.8 million as of December 31, 2024. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $670.5 million and $582.9 million of outstanding borrowings under our ABL Facility, respectively. Availability under the ABL Facility was $275.7 million as of June 30, 2025, and based on our borrowing base, we have an additional $231.1 million of suppressed availability that we can potentially utilize by upsizing our existing facility. For further information on the ABL Facility, see Note 7: Long-Term Debt in the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Loan Covenants and Compliance

The ABL Facility contains customary negative covenants for transactions of this type, including covenants that, among other things, limit Nesco Holdings II, Inc., our wholly owned subsidiary (the “Borrower” with respect to the ABL Facility, or the “Issuer” with respect to the Indenture, defined below) and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to: incur additional indebtedness; pay dividends, redeem stock, or make other distributions; repurchase, prepay or redeem subordinated indebtedness; make investments; create restrictions on the ability of the Borrower’s restricted subsidiaries to pay dividends; create liens; transfer or sell assets; consolidate, merge, sell, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the Borrower’s assets; enter into certain transactions with the Borrower’s affiliates; and designate subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries, in each case subject to certain exceptions, as well as a restrictive covenant applicable to each Specified Floor Plan Company (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) limiting its ability to own certain assets and engage in certain lines of business. The covenants governing the payment of dividends and making other distributions are based upon a combination of fixed amounts, percentages of Adjusted EBITDA or upon multiple pro forma measures depending on the purpose of any such dividend payments or distributions the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries are permitted to make. Unlimited dividends under the ABL Facility may be permitted so long as, on a pro forma basis, “distribution conditions” (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement governing the ABL Facility) are satisfied. As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s distribution conditions were satisfied and, as a result, the Company determined there were no restrictions on distributions by the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries by the ABL Credit Agreement.

The 5.50% senior secured second lien notes due 2029 (the “2029 Secured Notes”) were issued pursuant to the indenture governing our 2029 Secured Notes (the “Indenture”) which contains covenants that limit the Issuer’s (and certain of its subsidiaries’) ability to, among other things: (i) incur additional debt or issue certain preferred stock; (ii) pay dividends, redeem stock, or make other distributions; (iii) make other restricted payments or investments; (iv) create liens on assets; (v) transfer or sell assets; (vi) create restrictions on payment of dividends or other amounts by the Issuer’s restricted subsidiaries; (vii) engage in mergers or consolidations; (viii) engage in certain transactions with affiliates; or (ix) designate the Issuer’s subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. The covenants governing the payment of dividends and making other distributions are based upon a combination of fixed amounts, percentages of Adjusted EBITDA or upon multiple pro forma measures depending on the purpose of any such dividend payments or distributions the Issuer and its restricted subsidiaries are permitted to make. Unlimited dividends, under the Indenture, may be made so long as after giving effect to making the dividends, the Consolidated Total Debt Ratio would be no greater than 5.00 to 1.00 on a pro forma basis. As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s Consolidated Total Debt Ratio was not greater than 5.00 to 1.00 and, as a result, the Company determined there were no restrictions on distributions by the Issuer and its restricted subsidiaries by the Indenture. For further information on the ABL Facility and Indenture, see Note 8: Long-Term Debt in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements under Part II, Item 8 in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed on March 4, 2025.

The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA calculated in accordance with “Consolidated EBITDA” as that term is used in the ABL Credit Agreement and the Indenture. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income, as adjusted for provision for income taxes, interest expense, net, depreciation of rental equipment and non-rental depreciation and amortization, and further adjusted for the impact of the fair value mark-up of acquired rental fleet (the “non-cash purchase accounting impact”), business acquisition and merger-related costs, including integration, the impact of accounting for certain of our rental contracts with customers that are accounted for under GAAP as a sales-type lease and stock compensation expense.

The Company presents Net Leverage Ratio, which is equivalent to Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio in our ABL Credit Agreement and Consolidated Total Debt Ratio in the Indenture, is defined as Net Debt over Adjusted EBITDA for the previous twelve-month period (“last twelve months,” or “LTM”). Net debt is defined as total debt (calculated as current and long-term debt, excluding deferred financing fees, plus current and long-term finance lease obligations) minus cash and cash equivalents.

Our creditors utilize Adjusted EBITDA and Net Leverage Ratio to assess our compliance with the restrictive covenants in the ABL Credit Agreement and the Indenture. Neither Adjusted EBITDA or Net Leverage Ratio is calculated in accordance with GAAP and

may not conform to the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA or Net Leverage Ratio used by other companies. Neither Adjusted EBITDA or Net leverage Ratio should be considered as a substitute for a measure of our financial performance or liquidity prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The following table provides the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA pursuant to the ABL Credit Agreement and the Indenture.

Historical Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our sources and uses of cash:

(in 000s) 2025 2024
Net cash flow from operating activities $ 181,353 $ 23,408
Net cash flow for investing activities (139,807) (98,688)
Net cash flow from financing activities (39,889) 72,973
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents (203) 57
Net change in cash and cash equivalents $ 1,454 $ (2,250)

All values are in US Dollars.

As of June 30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $5.3 million, an increase of $1.5 million from December 31, 2024. Generally, we manage our cash flow by using any excess cash, after considering our working capital and capital expenditure needs, including paying down the outstanding balance under our ABL Facility, and availability under our credit facilities.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash from operating activities was $181.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $23.4 million in the same period of 2024. The change year over year is driven by lower levels of inventory production in 2025 compared to 2024.

Cash Flows for Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $139.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $98.7 million in the same period of 2024. The increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily due to an increase in purchases of rental equipment of $60.1 million.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash used for financing activities was $39.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to net cash from financing activities of $73.0 million in the same period of 2024. The increase in cash used for financing activities was primarily due to an increase in repayments on floorplan liabilities and long term debt of $64.1 million and lower proceeds from floorplan liabilities and long term debt of $40.0 million.

Item 3.     Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest rate risk

We are subject to interest rate market risk in connection with our long-term debt. Our principal interest rate exposure relates to outstanding amounts under the ABL Credit Facility and our floor plan financing arrangements. Interest rate changes generally impact the amount of our interest payments and, therefore, our future net income and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant. As of June 30, 2025, we had $1,460.7 million aggregate principal amount of variable rate debt, consisting of the balance outstanding under floor plan financing and the ABL Facility. Holding other variables constant, each one-eighth percentage point increase or decrease in the applicable interest rates would correspondingly change our interest expense under floor plan financing and the ABL Facility by approximately $1.8 million on an annual basis.

We, from time to time, may manage a portion of our risks from exposures to fluctuations in interest rates as part of our risk management program through the use of derivative financial instruments. The objective of controlling these risks is to limit the impact on earnings and cash flows caused by fluctuations in the interest rates of our variable-rate debt. We do not currently hedge our interest rate exposure.

Foreign currency exchange rate risk

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we generated $20.6 million of revenues denominated in Canadian dollars. Each 100-basis point increase or decrease in the average Canadian dollar to U.S. dollar exchange rate for the year would have correspondingly changed our revenues by approximately $0.4 million on an annual basis. We do not currently hedge our exchange rate exposure.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In accordance with Securities Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), our management, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2025. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2025.

(b) Changes to Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1.    Legal Proceedings

We may, at any given time, be named as a defendant in certain lawsuits, investigations and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these potential lawsuits, investigations and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect these matters to have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. In the opinion of management, there are no pending litigation, disputes or claims against the Company that, if decided adversely, would have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors

No material changes occurred to the risk factors as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Item 2.    Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

On August 2, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program for up to $30 million of the Company’s shares of common stock, which authorization was further increased by $25 million of shares on September 14, 2023, and increased again by $25 million on March 11, 2024, upon exhaustion of prior authorization. The authorization does not have an expiration date. Repurchases under the program may be made in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, with the amount and timing of repurchases depending on market conditions and corporate needs.

The following table contains information regarding our purchases of our common stock during the three months ended June 30, 2025:

Exhibit A

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

Capitalized terms not specifically defined in this Agreement have the meanings specified in the Grant Notice or, if not defined in the Grant Notice, in the Plan.

Article I. GENERAL

1.1Award of RSUs and Dividend Equivalents.

(a)The Company has granted the RSUs to Participant effective as of the grant date set forth in the Grant Notice (the “Grant Date”). Each RSU represents the right to receive one Share or, at the option of the Company, an amount of cash, in either case, as set forth in this Agreement. Participant will have no right to the distribution of any Shares or payment of any cash until the time (if ever) the RSUs have vested.

(b)The Company hereby grants to Participant, with respect to each RSU, a Dividend Equivalent for ordinary cash dividends paid to substantially all holders of outstanding Shares with a record date after the Grant Date and prior to the date the applicable RSU is settled, forfeited or otherwise expires. Each Dividend Equivalent entitles Participant to receive the equivalent value of any such ordinary cash dividends paid on a single Share. The Company will establish a separate Dividend Equivalent bookkeeping account (a “Dividend Equivalent Account”) for each Dividend Equivalent and credit the Dividend Equivalent Account (without interest) on the applicable dividend payment date with the amount of any such cash paid.

1.2Incorporation of Terms of Plan. The RSUs are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. In the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan will control, except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.1(b)(ii) and Exhibit B attached hereto.

1.3Unsecured Promise. The RSUs and Dividend Equivalents will at all times prior to settlement represent an unsecured Company obligation payable only from the Company’s general assets.

Article II. VESTING; FORFEITURE AND SETTLEMENT

2.1Vesting; Change in Control.

(a)Subject to Section 2.2 hereof and subject to any potential reductions due to mitigation of any excise taxes under Section 4999 of the Code as may be set forth in any employment or other agreement between Participant and the Company, the RSUs will vest according to the vesting schedule in the Grant Notice and Exhibit B attached hereto except that any fraction of an RSU that would otherwise be vested will be accumulated and will vest only when a whole RSU has accumulated.

(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing and except as otherwise set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto, if a Change in Control occurs after the Grant Date, and provided that Participant has not incurred a Termination of Service prior to such Change in Control, then:

(i)if the consideration payable for Shares in the Change in Control is at least 80% cash, all unvested RSUs will become vested immediately prior to such Change in Control; and

(ii)if the consideration payable for Shares in the Change in Control is not at least 80% cash, all unvested RSUs will remain outstanding and vest according to and subject to the terms of the vesting schedule in the Grant Notice; provided that, notwithstanding Section 8.2 of the Plan, if any unvested RSUs are not continued, converted, assumed or replaced by the Company or any successor or survivor entity or a parent or subsidiary thereof in such Change in

Control, and Participant has not had a Termination of Service, then immediately prior to the Change in Control such unvested RSUs shall become fully vested.

For the purposes of this Section 2.1(b), (i) the RSUs will not be considered continued, converted, assumed or replaced unless, following the Change in Control, the RSUs or awards into which they were converted have substantially the same economic value immediately following such continuation, conversion, assumption or replacement as the RSUs had immediately prior to such continuation, conversion, assumption or replacement and (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, the Administrator will have the authority to determine whether the consideration payable for Shares in a Change in Control is at least 80% cash.

For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.1(b)(ii), the RSUs will in all events remain subject to Article VIII of the Plan.

2.2Forfeiture; Termination of Service; Restrictive Covenants.

(a)In the event of (i) Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason or (ii) a breach by Participant of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 2.3 hereof or any other customer or employee non-solicitation, non-competition, confidentiality or similar covenants with the Company by which Participant is bound, all unvested RSUs will immediately and automatically be cancelled and forfeited, in each case, except as otherwise (A) determined by the Administrator, (B) provided in Section 2.2(b) or Section 2.2(c) hereof or Exhibit B attached hereto or (C) provided in a binding written agreement between Participant and the Company. Dividend Equivalents (including any Dividend Equivalent Account balance) will vest or be forfeited, as applicable, upon the vesting or forfeiture of the corresponding RSU.

(b)In the event Participant incurs a Termination of Service as a result of a termination by the Company or its Subsidiary without Cause or by Participant for Good Reason, in each case, within thirty (30) days prior to a Vesting Date, subject to Participant’s execution of a release of claims in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company and such release of claims becoming effective and irrevocable within 60 days following Participant’s Termination of Service, all unvested RSUs that would have vested on such Vesting Date will become vested immediately prior to such Termination of Service.

(c)In the event Participant incurs a Termination of Service as a result of a termination by the Company or its Subsidiary without Cause or by Participant for Good Reason, in each case, upon or within one (1) year following a Change in Control in which the consideration payable for Shares in such Change in Control is not all cash, all then unvested RSUs (or other awards into which they were converted or with which they were replaced) will become vested immediately prior to such Termination of Service.

(d)For purposes herein, “Good Reason” shall mean the occurrence, without Participant’s written consent of any of the following circumstances: (i) a material reduction by the Company in Participant’s annual base salary, other than in connection with broad based salary reductions affecting substantially all similarly situated Company employees; (ii) a relocation of Participant’s primary work location by more than fifty (50) miles from the work location in effect immediately prior to such relocation, except for reasonable required travel on the Company’s business; or (iii) any breach by the Company of any material provision of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Participant’s termination of employment shall not be a termination of employment for Good Reason unless (x) such termination occurs within six (6) months of the initial existence of the condition giving rise to such termination, (y) Participant gives written notice to the Company of the condition giving rise to such termination within ninety (90) days of its initial existence, and (z) the Company does not cure the condition giving rise to such termination within the thirty (30) day period beginning on the date it receives notice from Participant of such condition. The foregoing definition shall not apply to the extent the term “Good Reason” is defined in any employment agreement between the Company and Participant (in which case such other Good Reason definition will instead apply).

(iii)“Confidential Information” means information that the Company Group has or will develop, acquire, create, compile, discover, or own, that has value in or to the business of the Company Group that is not generally known and that the Company Group wishes to maintain as confidential. Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to, any and all non-public information that relates to the actual or anticipated business and/or products, research, or development of the Company Group, or to the technical data, trade secrets, or know-how of the Company Group, including, but not limited to, research, product plans, product pricing, vendor pricing and terms or other information regarding the products or services and markets of the Company Group, customer lists, and customers (including, but not limited to, customers of the Company Group on whom Participant called or with whom Participant may become acquainted during the term of Participant’s employment), software, developments, inventions, processes, formulas, technology, designs, drawings, engineering, marketing, finances, and other business information disclosed by the Company Group either directly or indirectly in writing, orally, or by drawings or inspection of premises, parts, equipment, or other property of the Company Group. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not include (A) any of the foregoing items that have become publicly and widely known through no unauthorized disclosure by me or others who were under confidentiality obligations as to the item or items involved or (B) any information that Participant is required to disclose to, or by, any governmental or judicial authority.

(iv)“Interfering Activities” shall mean (A) encouraging, soliciting, or inducing, or in any manner attempting to encourage, solicit, or induce, any Person employed by, or providing consulting services to, the Company Group (collectively, “Company Personnel”) to terminate such Person’s employment or services (or in the case of a consultant, materially reducing such services) with the Company Group; (B) hiring any individual who was employed by the Company Group within the six (6) month period prior to the date of such hiring; or (C) encouraging, soliciting, or inducing, or in any manner attempting to encourage, solicit, or induce, any Business Relation to cease doing business with or reduce the amount of business conducted with the Company Group, or in any way interfering with the relationship between any such Business Relation and the Company Group.

A-3

US-DOCS\159389178.1

the Participant special and unique within the Company’s and Company’s industry, and that Participant has the opportunity to develop substantial relationships with existing and prospective clients, accounts, customers, consultants, contractors, investors, and strategic partners of the Company Group during the course of and as a result of its employment with the Company. In light of the foregoing, Participant hereby recognizes and acknowledges that the restrictions and limitations set forth in this Agreement are reasonable and valid and are essential to protect the value of the business and assets of the Company Group. Participant hereby further acknowledges that the restrictions and limitations set forth in this agreement will not materially interfere with Participant’s ability to earn a living following the termination of its employment with the Company and that Participant’s ability to earn a livelihood without violating such restrictions is a material condition to the Company grant of the RSUs.

2.4Settlement.

(a)RSUs and Dividend Equivalents (including any Dividend Equivalent Account balance) will be paid in Shares or cash at the Company’s option as soon as administratively practicable after the vesting of the applicable RSU, but in no event more than sixty (60) days after the RSU’s vesting date or, if earlier, by March 15 of the year following the year of such vesting date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may delay any payment under this Agreement that the Company reasonably determines would violate Applicable Law until the earliest date the Company reasonably determines the making of the payment will not cause such a violation (in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(ii)), provided the Company reasonably believes the delay will not result in the imposition of excise taxes under Section 409A.

(b)If an RSU is paid in cash, the amount of cash paid with respect to the RSU will equal the Fair Market Value of a Share on the latest practicable date preceding the payment date, as determined by the Company. If a Dividend Equivalent is paid in Shares, the number of Shares paid with respect to the Dividend Equivalent will equal the quotient, rounded down to the nearest whole Share, of the Dividend Equivalent Account balance divided by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the latest practicable date preceding the payment date, as determined by the Company.

2.5Rights as Stockholder. The holder of the RSUs shall not be, nor have any of the rights or privileges of, a stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, voting rights and rights to dividends, in respect of the RSUs and any Shares underlying the RSUs and deliverable hereunder unless and until such Shares shall have been issued by the Company and held of record by such holder (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Article VIII of the Plan.

Article III. TAXATION AND TAX WITHHOLDING

3.1Representation. Participant represents to the Company that Participant has reviewed with Participant’s own tax advisors the tax consequences of this Award and the transactions contemplated by the Grant Notice and this Agreement. Participant is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents.

3.2Tax Withholding.

(a)The Company has the right and option, but not the obligation, to treat Participant’s failure to provide timely payment in accordance with the Plan of any withholding tax arising in connection with the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents as Participant’s election to satisfy all or any portion of the withholding tax by requesting the Company retain Shares otherwise issuable under the Award.

(b)Participant acknowledges that Participant is ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed in connection with the RSUs and the Dividend Equivalents, regardless of any action the Company or any Subsidiary takes with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary makes any representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the

A-4

US-DOCS\159389178.1

awarding, vesting or payment of the RSUs or the Dividend Equivalents or the subsequent sale of Shares. The Company and the Subsidiaries do not commit and are under no obligation to structure the RSUs or Dividend Equivalents to reduce or eliminate Participant’s tax liability.

By a notice given pursuant to this Section, either party may designate a different address for notices to be given to that party. Any notice will be deemed duly given when actually received, when sent by email, when sent by certified mail (return receipt requested) and deposited with postage prepaid in a post office or branch post office regularly maintained by the United States Postal Service, when delivered by a nationally recognized express shipping company or upon receipt of a facsimile transmission confirmation.

4.6Governing Law. The laws of the State of Delaware shall govern the interpretation, validity, administration, enforcement and performance of the terms of this Agreement regardless of the law that might be applied under principles of conflicts of laws.

4.7Conformity to Securities Laws. Participant acknowledges that the Plan, the Grant Notice and this Agreement are intended to conform to the extent necessary with all Applicable Laws and, to the extent Applicable Laws permit, will be deemed amended as necessary to conform to Applicable Laws.

To the extent Applicable Laws permit, this Agreement will be deemed amended as necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule.

A-5

US-DOCS\159389178.1

4.10Entire Agreement. Except as expressly provided herein, the Plan, the Grant Notice and this Agreement (including any exhibit hereto) constitute the entire agreement of the parties and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and Participant with respect to the subject matter hereof.

4.11Agreement Severable. In the event that any provision of the Grant Notice or this Agreement is held illegal or invalid, the provision will be severable from, and the illegality or invalidity of the provision will not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of the Grant Notice or this Agreement.

4.12Section 409A. The RSUs are intended to comply with or be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (together with any Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder, including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the date hereof, “Section 409A”). Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Grant Notice or this Agreement, if at any time the Administrator determines that the RSUs (or any portion thereof) may be subject to or may fail to comply with the requirements of Section 409A, the Administrator shall have the right in its sole discretion (without any obligation to do so or to indemnify Participant or any other person for failure to do so) to adopt such amendments to the Plan, the Grant Notice or this Agreement, or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, as the Administrator determines are necessary or appropriate either for the RSUs to be exempt from the application of Section 409A or to comply with the requirements of Section 409A.

4.13Limitation on Participant’s Rights. Participation in the Plan confers no rights or interests other than as herein provided. This Agreement creates only a contractual obligation on the part of the Company as to amounts payable and may not be construed as creating a trust. Neither the Plan nor any underlying program, in and of itself, has any assets. Participant will have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to amounts credited and benefits payable, if any, with respect to the RSUs and Dividend Equivalents, and rights no greater than the right to receive cash or the Shares as a general unsecured creditor with respect to the RSUs and Dividend Equivalents, as and when settled pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

4.14Not a Contract of Employment. Nothing in the Plan, the Grant Notice or this Agreement confers upon Participant any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or any Subsidiary or interferes with or restricts in any way the rights of the Company and its Subsidiaries, which rights are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or terminate the services of Participant at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without Cause, except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in a written agreement between the Company or a Subsidiary and Participant.

4.15Counterparts. The Grant Notice may be executed in one or more counterparts, including by way of any electronic signature, subject to Applicable Law, each of which will be deemed an original and all of which together will constitute one instrument.

Exhibit A

PERFORMANCE STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

Capitalized terms not specifically defined in this Agreement have the meanings specified in the Grant Notice or, if not defined in the Grant Notice, in the Plan.

Article I. GENERAL

1.1Award of PSUs and Dividend Equivalents.

(a)The Company has granted the PSUs to Participant effective as of the grant date set forth in the Grant Notice (the “Grant Date”). Each PSU represents the right to receive one Share or, at the option of the Company, an amount of cash, in either case, upon the achievement of certain performance goals as set forth in the Grant Notice and this Agreement. Participant will have no right to the distribution of any Shares or payment of any cash until the time (if ever) the PSUs have vested.

(b)The Company hereby grants to Participant, with respect to each PSU, a Dividend Equivalent for ordinary cash dividends paid to substantially all holders of outstanding Shares with a record date after the Grant Date and prior to the date the applicable PSU is settled, forfeited or otherwise expires. Each Dividend Equivalent entitles Participant to receive the equivalent value of any such ordinary cash dividends paid on a single Share. The Company will establish a separate Dividend Equivalent bookkeeping account (a “Dividend Equivalent Account”) for each Dividend Equivalent and credit the Dividend Equivalent Account (without interest) on the applicable dividend payment date with the amount of any such cash paid.

1.2Incorporation of Terms of Plan. The PSUs are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. In the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan will control, except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.1(b)(ii) and Exhibit B attached hereto.

1.3Unsecured Promise. The PSUs and Dividend Equivalents will at all times prior to settlement represent an unsecured Company obligation payable only from the Company’s general assets.

Article II. VESTING; FORFEITURE AND SETTLEMENT

2.1Vesting; Change in Control.

(a)Subject to Section 2.2 hereof and subject to any potential reductions due to mitigation of any excise taxes under Section 4999 of the Code as may be set forth in any employment or other agreement between Participant and the Company, the PSUs will vest according to the vesting schedule in the Grant Notice and Exhibit B attached hereto except that any fraction of a PSU that would otherwise be vested will be accumulated and will vest only when a whole PSU has accumulated.

(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change in Control occurs after the Grant Date and during the Performance Period and the consideration payable per Share in such Change in Control (the “CIC Price”) equals or exceeds $12.50 per Share (the “Performance Target”), and provided that Participant has not incurred a Termination of Service prior to such Change in Control, then:

(i)if the consideration payable for Shares in the Change in Control is at least 80% cash, all unvested PSUs will become vested immediately prior to such Change in Control if the CIC Price equals or exceeds the Performance Target; and

(ii)if the consideration payable for Shares in the Change in Control is not at least 80% cash, the CIC Price shall be the public market closing price per Share on the day that is three (3) days before the date of the Change in Control (or the last preceding trading day, if such day is not a trading day), and all unvested PSUs will remain outstanding, convert to time-based vesting

and vest at the end of each Performance Year without regard to any Performance Target or EBITDA Goals if the CIC Price equals or exceeds the Performance Target (the “Converted PSUs”); provided that, notwithstanding Section 8.2 of the Plan, if any unvested Converted PSUs are not continued, converted, assumed or replaced by the Company or any successor or survivor entity or a parent or subsidiary thereof in such Change in Control, and Participant has not had a Termination of Service, then immediately prior to the Change in Control such unvested Converted PSUs shall become fully vested.

For the purposes of this Section 2.1(b), (i) the Converted PSUs will not be considered continued, converted, assumed or replaced unless, following the Change in Control, the Converted PSUs or awards into which they were converted have substantially the same economic value immediately following such continuation, conversion, assumption or replacement as the Converted PSUs had immediately prior to such continuation, conversion, assumption or replacement and (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, the Administrator will have the authority to determine whether the consideration payable for Shares in a Change in Control is at least 80% cash.

For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if the CIC Price is less than the Performance Target, all unvested PSUs will be forfeited for no consideration upon the Change in Control.

2.2Forfeiture; Termination of Service; Restrictive Covenants.

(a)In the event of (i) Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason or (ii) a breach by Participant of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 2.3 hereof or any other customer or employee non-solicitation, non-competition, confidentiality or similar covenants with the Company by which Participant is bound, all unvested PSUs will immediately and automatically be cancelled and forfeited, in each case, except as otherwise (A) determined by the Administrator, (B) provided in Section 2.2(b) or Section 2.2(c) hereof or Exhibit B attached hereto or (C) provided in a binding written agreement between Participant and the Company. Dividend Equivalents (including any Dividend Equivalent Account balance) will vest or be forfeited, as applicable, upon the vesting or forfeiture of the corresponding PSU.

(b)In the event Participant incurs a Termination of Service as a result of a termination by the Company or its Subsidiary without Cause or by Participant for Good Reason, in each case, subject to Participant’s execution of a release of claims in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company and such release of claims becoming effective and irrevocable within 60 days following Participant’s Termination of Service, Participant will, immediately prior to such Termination of Service, vest in any Eligible PSUs that are eligible to vest at the end of the Performance Year in which the Termination of Service occurs based on achievement of the EBITDA Goals for the prior Performance Year.

(c)In the event Participant incurs a Termination of Service as a result of a termination by the Company or its Subsidiary without Cause or by Participant for Good Reason, in each case, upon or within one (1) year following a Change in Control in which the consideration payable for Shares in such Change in Control is not all cash, all then unvested Converted PSUs (or other awards into which they were converted or with which they were replaced) will become vested immediately prior to such Termination of Service.

(d)For purposes herein, “Good Reason” shall mean the occurrence, without Participant’s written consent of any of the following circumstances: (i) a material reduction by the Company in Participant’s annual base salary, other than in connection with broad based salary reductions affecting substantially all similarly situated Company employees; (ii) a relocation of Participant’s primary work location by more than fifty (50) miles from the work location in effect immediately prior to such relocation, except for reasonable required travel on the Company’s business; or (iii) any breach by the Company of any material provision of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Participant’s termination of employment shall not be a termination of employment for Good Reason unless (x) such termination occurs within six (6) months of the initial existence of the condition giving rise to such

A-2

termination, (y) Participant gives written notice to the Company of the condition giving rise to such termination within ninety (90) days of its initial existence, and (z) the Company does not cure the condition giving rise to such termination within the thirty (30) day period beginning on the date it receives notice from Participant of such condition. The foregoing definition shall not apply to the extent the term “Good Reason” is defined in any employment agreement between the Company and Participant (in which case such other Good Reason definition will instead apply).

2.3Restrictive Covenants. In consideration of the Company grant of the PSUs, Participant hereby makes the covenants and agreements described in this Section 2.3.

(a)Non-Interference. Participant hereby agrees that Participant shall not, at any time during the Restricted Period, directly or indirectly, for his or her own account or for the account of any other individual or entity, engage in Interfering Activities.

(ii)“Company Group” means the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates.

(iii)“Confidential Information” means information that the Company Group has or will develop, acquire, create, compile, discover, or own, that has value in or to the business of the Company Group that is not generally known and that the Company Group wishes to maintain as confidential. Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to, any and all non-public information that relates to the actual or anticipated business and/or products, research, or development of the Company Group, or to the technical data, trade secrets, or know-how of the Company Group, including, but not limited to, research, product plans, product pricing, vendor pricing and terms or other information regarding the products or services and markets of the Company Group, customer lists, and customers (including, but not limited to, customers of the Company Group on whom Participant called or with whom Participant may become acquainted during the term of Participant’s employment), software, developments, inventions, processes, formulas, technology, designs, drawings, engineering, marketing, finances, and other business information disclosed by the Company Group either directly or indirectly in writing, orally, or by drawings or inspection of premises, parts, equipment, or other property of the Company Group. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not include (A) any of the foregoing items that have become publicly and widely known through no unauthorized disclosure by me or others who were under confidentiality obligations as to the item or items involved or (B) any information that Participant is required to disclose to, or by, any governmental or judicial authority.

(iv)“Interfering Activities” shall mean (A) encouraging, soliciting, or inducing, or in any manner attempting to encourage, solicit, or induce, any Person employed by, or providing consulting services to, the Company Group (collectively, “Company Personnel”) to terminate such Person’s employment or services (or in the case of a consultant, materially reducing such services) with the Company Group; (B) hiring any individual who was employed by the Company Group within the six (6) month period prior to the date of such hiring; or (C) encouraging, soliciting, or inducing, or in any manner attempting to encourage, solicit, or induce, any Business Relation to cease doing business with or reduce the amount of business conducted with the Company Group, or in any way interfering with the relationship between any such Business Relation and the Company Group.

(v)“Person” shall mean any individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, association, joint-stock company, trust (charitable or non-charitable), unincorporated organization, or other form of business entity.

A-3

(vi)“Restricted Period” shall mean the period commencing on the Grant Date and ending on the twelve (12) month anniversary of the date of Participation’s Termination of Service.

(a)Reasonableness of Restrictions. Participant hereby acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive nature of the Company’s business, that access to Confidential Information renders the Participant special and unique within the Company’s and Company’s industry, and that Participant has the opportunity to develop substantial relationships with existing and prospective clients, accounts, customers, consultants, contractors, investors, and strategic partners of the Company Group during the course of and as a result of Participant’s employment with the Company. In light of the foregoing, Participant hereby recognizes and acknowledges that the restrictions and limitations set forth in this Agreement are reasonable and valid and are essential to protect the value of the business and assets of the Company Group. Participant hereby further acknowledges that the restrictions and limitations set forth in this agreement will not materially interfere with Participant’s ability to earn a living following the termination of its employment with the Company and that Participant’s ability to earn a livelihood without violating such restrictions is a material condition to the Company grant of the PSUs.

2.4Settlement.

(a)PSUs and Dividend Equivalents (including any Dividend Equivalent Account balance) will be paid in Shares or cash at the Company’s option as soon as administratively practicable after the vesting of the applicable PSU, but in no event more than sixty (60) days after the PSU’s vesting date or, if earlier, by March 15 of the year following the year of such vesting date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may delay any payment under this Agreement that the Company reasonably determines would violate Applicable Law until the earliest date the Company reasonably determines the making of the payment will not cause such a violation (in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(ii)), provided the Company reasonably believes the delay will not result in the imposition of excise taxes under Section 409A.

(b)If a PSU is paid in cash, the amount of cash paid with respect to the PSU will equal the Fair Market Value of a Share on the latest practicable date preceding the payment date, as determined by the Company. If a Dividend Equivalent is paid in Shares, the number of Shares paid with respect to the Dividend Equivalent will equal the quotient, rounded down to the nearest whole Share, of the Dividend Equivalent Account balance divided by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the latest practicable date preceding the payment date, as determined by the Company.

2.5Rights as Stockholder. The holder of the PSUs shall not be, nor have any of the rights or privileges of, a stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, voting rights and rights to dividends, in respect of the PSUs and any Shares underlying the PSUs and deliverable hereunder unless and until such Shares shall have been issued by the Company and held of record by such holder (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Article VIII of the Plan.

Article III. TAXATION AND TAX WITHHOLDING

3.1Representation. Participant represents to the Company that Participant has reviewed with Participant’s own tax advisors the tax consequences of this Award and the transactions contemplated by the Grant Notice and this Agreement. Participant is relying solely on such advisors and not on any statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents.

A-4

3.2Tax Withholding.

(a)The Company has the right and option, but not the obligation, to treat Participant’s failure to provide timely payment in accordance with the Plan of any withholding tax arising in connection with the PSUs or Dividend Equivalents as Participant’s election to satisfy all or any portion of the withholding tax by requesting the Company retain Shares otherwise issuable under the Award.

(b)Participant acknowledges that Participant is ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed in connection with the PSUs and the Dividend Equivalents, regardless of any action the Company or any Subsidiary takes with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the PSUs or Dividend Equivalents. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary makes any representation or undertaking regarding the treatment of any tax withholding in connection with the awarding, vesting or payment of the PSUs or the Dividend Equivalents or the subsequent sale of Shares. The Company and the Subsidiaries do not commit and are under no obligation to structure the PSUs or Dividend Equivalents to reduce or eliminate Participant’s tax liability.

PERFORMANCE STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

Capitalized terms not specifically defined in this Agreement have the meanings specified in the Grant Notice or, if not defined in the Grant Notice, in the Plan.

Article I. GENERAL

1.1Award of PSUs and Dividend Equivalents.

(a)The Company has granted the PSUs to Participant effective as of the grant date set forth in the Grant Notice (the “Grant Date”). Each PSU represents the right to receive one Share or, at the option of the Company, an amount of cash, in either case, upon the achievement of certain performance goals as set forth in the Grant Notice and this Agreement. Participant will have no right to the distribution of any Shares or payment of any cash until the time (if ever) the PSUs have vested.

(b)The Company hereby grants to Participant, with respect to each PSU, a Dividend Equivalent for ordinary cash dividends paid to substantially all holders of outstanding Shares with a record date after the Grant Date and prior to the date the applicable PSU is settled, forfeited or otherwise expires. Each Dividend Equivalent entitles Participant to receive the equivalent value of any such ordinary cash dividends paid on a single Share. The Company will establish a separate Dividend Equivalent bookkeeping account (a “Dividend Equivalent Account”) for each Dividend Equivalent and credit the Dividend Equivalent Account (without interest) on the applicable dividend payment date with the amount of any such cash paid.

1.2Incorporation of Terms of Plan. The PSUs are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. In the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and this Agreement, the terms of the Plan will control, except as otherwise expressly provided in Exhibit B attached hereto.

Subject to Section 2.2 hereof and subject to any potential reductions due to mitigation of any excise taxes under Section 4999 of the Code as may be set forth in any employment or other agreement between Participant and the Company, the PSUs will vest according to the vesting schedule in the Grant Notice and Exhibit B attached hereto except that any fraction of a PSU that would otherwise be vested will be accumulated and will vest only when a whole PSU has accumulated.

2.2Forfeiture; Termination of Service; Restrictive Covenants.

(a)In the event of (i) Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason or (ii) a breach by Participant of the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 2.3 hereof or any other customer or employee non-solicitation, non-competition, confidentiality or similar covenants with the Company by which Participant is bound, all unvested PSUs will immediately and automatically be cancelled and forfeited, in each case, except as otherwise (A) determined by the Administrator, (B) provided in Section 2.2(b) hereof or (C) provided in a binding written agreement between Participant and the Company. Dividend Equivalents (including any Dividend Equivalent Account balance) will vest or be forfeited, as applicable, upon the vesting or forfeiture of the corresponding PSU.

(b)In the event Participant incurs a Termination of Service as a result of a termination by the Company or its Subsidiary without Cause or as otherwise set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto, subject in the event of a termination by the Company or its Subsidiary without Cause to Participant’s execution of a release of claims in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company and such

release of claims becoming effective and irrevocable within 60 days following Participant’s Termination of Service, Participant will be entitled to retain any unvested and outstanding PSUs, which will vest according to the vesting schedule set forth in the Grant Notice and Exhibit B attached hereto and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan.

(iii)“Confidential Information” means information that the Company Group has or will develop, acquire, create, compile, discover, or own, that has value in or to the business of the Company Group that is not generally known and that the Company Group wishes to maintain as confidential. Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to, any and all non-public information that relates to the actual or anticipated business and/or products, research, or development of the Company Group, or to the technical data, trade secrets, or know-how of the Company Group, including, but not limited to, research, product plans, product pricing, vendor pricing and terms or other information regarding the products or services and markets of the Company Group, customer lists, and customers (including, but not limited to, customers of the Company Group on whom Participant called or with whom Participant may become acquainted during the term of Participant’s employment), software, developments, inventions, processes, formulas, technology, designs, drawings, engineering, marketing, finances, and other business information disclosed by the Company Group either directly or indirectly in writing, orally, or by drawings or inspection of premises, parts, equipment, or other property of the Company Group.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may delay any payment under this Agreement that the Company reasonably determines would violate Applicable Law until the earliest date the Company reasonably determines the making of the payment will not cause such a violation (in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(7)(ii)), provided the Company reasonably believes the delay will not result in the imposition of excise taxes under Section 409A.

(b)If a PSU is paid in cash, the amount of cash paid with respect to the PSU will equal the Fair Market Value of a Share on the latest practicable date preceding the payment date, as determined by the Company. If a Dividend Equivalent is paid in Shares, the number of Shares paid with respect to the Dividend Equivalent will equal the quotient, rounded down to the nearest whole Share, of the Dividend Equivalent Account balance divided by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the latest practicable date preceding the payment date, as determined by the Company.

2.5Rights as Stockholder. The holder of the PSUs shall not be, nor have any of the rights or privileges of, a stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, voting rights and rights to dividends, in respect of the PSUs and any Shares underlying the PSUs and deliverable hereunder unless and until such Shares shall have been issued by the Company and held of record by such holder (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company).

(a)The Company has the right and option, but not the obligation, to treat Participant’s failure to provide timely payment in accordance with the Plan of any withholding tax arising in connection with the PSUs or Dividend Equivalents as Participant’s election to satisfy all or any portion of the withholding tax by requesting the Company retain Shares otherwise issuable under the Award.

(b)Participant acknowledges that Participant is ultimately liable and responsible for all taxes owed in connection with the PSUs and the Dividend Equivalents, regardless of any action the Company or any Subsidiary takes with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the PSUs or Dividend Equivalents.
