10. (a) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls the Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or

Section 20 of the Exchange Act and their respective officers, directors, employees and selling agents (including any affiliate of such Underwriter involved on behalf of such Underwriter in the distribution process for the Stock) (each such person, an “Underwriter Indemnified Party”) against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter or Underwriter Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) (i) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Act (in the case of either an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or such “issuer information”, taken together with the Pricing Prospectus) or any “road show” (as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Act) not constituting an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or (ii) arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made), and will reimburse such Underwriter or Underwriter Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable to such Underwriter or Underwriter Indemnified Party in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter expressly for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by such Underwriter is the Underwriter Information.

(b) The Selling Stockholder will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and each Underwriter Indemnified Party against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter or Underwriter Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) (i) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (taken together with the Pricing Disclosure Package), or (ii) arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of the Basic Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made), in the case of each of clause (i) and (ii), to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information relating to the Selling Stockholder

furnished to the Company by the Selling Stockholder expressly for use in the preparation of the answers to Item 7 of Form S-3; and will reimburse each Underwriter or Underwriter Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Selling Stockholder shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus or any such amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter expressly for use therein (it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Underwriters is the Underwriter Information), provided, further, that the liability of the Selling Stockholder pursuant to this subsection (b) shall not exceed the product of (y) the number of Shares sold by the Selling Stockholder and (z) the per share net proceeds to the Selling Stockholder as set forth in the Pricing Prospectus.

(c) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the Selling Stockholder and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Selling Stockholder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and their respective officers and directors (each such person, a “Company Indemnified Party” or a “Selling Stockholder Indemnified Party”, as applicable, and, together with the Underwriter Indemnified Parties, the “Indemnified Parties”) against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company or the Selling Stockholder or such Company Indemnified Party or Selling Stockholder Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) (i) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (taken together with the Pricing Disclosure Package), or (ii) arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of the Basic Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made), in the case of each of clause (i) and (ii), to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by each Underwriter expressly for use therein; and will reimburse the Company and the Selling Stockholder or Company Indemnified Party or Selling Stockholder Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or the Selling Stockholder in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are incurred. The Company and the Selling Stockholder each acknowledge that the following statements (the “Underwriter Information”) constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter for inclusion in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus: the marketing name of such Underwriter set forth on the cover page of the Pricing Prospectus; the legal name of such Underwriter; and the statements in the third, fourth, sixth, eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth paragraphs, all of which are under the heading “Underwriting” contained in the Pricing Prospectus.

(d) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 10 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights and defenses) as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under such subsection. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. To the extent that an indemnifying party does not assume the defense of any such action, it is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any one action or proceeding or separate but substantially similar actions or proceedings arising out of the same general allegations, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all indemnified parties (except to the extent that local counsel (in addition to any regular counsel) is required to effectively defend against any such action or proceeding); provided that the fees and expenses of such separate firm of attorneys and any local counsel shall be reasonably incurred. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement or any action affected without its prior written consent.

(e) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 10 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a), (b) or (c) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Stockholder on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Shares. If,

however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under subsection (d) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company and the Selling Stockholder on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Selling Stockholder on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Selling Stockholder bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Selling Stockholder on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company, the Selling Stockholder and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (e) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (e). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (e) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (e), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter with respect to the offering of the Shares exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The liability of the Selling Stockholder pursuant to this subsection (e) shall not exceed the product of (i) the number of Shares sold by the Selling Stockholder and (ii) the per share net proceeds to the Selling Stockholder as set forth in the Pricing Prospectus.

(f) The obligations of the Company and the Selling Stockholder under this Section 10 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company and the Selling Stockholder may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each Underwriter Indemnified Party; and the obligations of the Underwriters under this Section 10 shall be in addition to any liability which the Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each Company Indemnified Party and each Selling Stockholder Indemnified Party.

11. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company, the Selling Stockholder and the several Underwriters, as set forth in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any Underwriter Indemnified Party, or the Company, or the Selling Stockholder, or any Company Indemnified Party or Selling Stockholder Indemnified Party and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Shares.

12. If this Agreement is terminated by the Underwriters in accordance with the provisions of Section 9 (other than as a result of the occurrence of any event described in Section 9(j)(i), (iii), (iv) or (v)) or if any Shares are not delivered by or on behalf of the Selling Stockholder as provided herein, (x) the Company, or (y) if such failure to deliver any Shares arises from the breach of a representation, warranty or covenant by the Selling Stockholder, or the termination by the Underwriter for failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in, and in accordance with the provisions of, Sections 9(d), 9(e) or 9(q) hereof, the Selling Stockholder, will reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses, including fees and disbursements of counsel, reasonably incurred by the Underwriter in making preparations for the purchase, sale and delivery of the Shares not so delivered, but neither the Company nor the Selling Stockholder shall then be under any further liability to any Underwriter except as provided in Sections 8 and 10 hereof.

13. In accordance with the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Underwriters are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies their respective clients, including the Company and the Selling Stockholder, which information may include the name and address of their respective clients, as well as other information that will allow the Underwriters to properly identify their respective clients.

All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in writing, and if to the Underwriters shall be delivered or sent by mail or facsimile transmission to Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, 1585 Broadway, New York, New York 10036, Attention: Equity Syndicate Desk, with a copy to the Legal Department; if to the Company shall be delivered or sent by mail or electronic transmission to the address of the Company set forth on the cover of the Registration Statement, Attention: Frank Lonegro, Chief Financial Officer, and Christine E. Reddy, Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, telephone no. (202) 744-0026, email: Christine.reddy@becn.com, with a copy to Squire Patton Boggs (US) LLP, 2550 M Street NW, Washington, DC 20037, Attention: Abby E. Brown; if to the Selling Stockholder shall be delivered or sent by mail or facsimile transmission to counsel for the Selling Stockholder at Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, 66 Hudson Boulevard, New York, New York 10001; and if to any stockholder that has delivered a lock-up letter described in Section 9(l) hereof shall be delivered or sent by mail to his or her respective address provided in Schedule IV hereto or such other address as such stockholder provides in writing to the Company; provided that notices under subsection 6(e) shall be in writing, and if to the Underwriters shall be delivered or sent by mail or facsimile transmission to the address above. Any such statements, requests, notices or agreements shall take effect upon receipt thereof.

14. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure solely to the benefit of, the Underwriters, the Company and the Selling Stockholder and, to the extent provided in Sections 10 and 11 hereof, the Indemnified Parties, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and no other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this Agreement. No purchaser of any of the Shares from any Underwriter shall be deemed a successor or assign by reason merely of such purchase.

15. Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement. As used herein, the term “business day” shall mean any day when the Commission’s office in Washington, D.C. is open for business.

16. Each of the Company and the Selling Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that (i) the purchase and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company and the Selling Stockholder, on the one hand, and the several Underwriters, on the other, (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transaction each Underwriter is acting solely as a principal and not the agent or fiduciary of the Company or the Selling Stockholder, (iii) no Underwriter has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company or the Selling Stockholder with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company or the Selling Stockholder on other matters) or any other obligation to the Company or the Selling Stockholder except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement and (iv) the Company and the Selling Stockholder has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate. The Company and the Selling Stockholder agree that they will not claim that the Underwriters, or any of them, has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Company or the Selling Stockholder, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto. Moreover, the Selling Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that, although the Underwriters may be required or choose to provide the Selling Stockholder with certain Regulation Best Interest and Form CRS disclosures in connection with the offering, the Underwriters are not making a recommendation to the Selling Stockholder to participate in the offering or sell any Shares at any price, and nothing set forth in such disclosures is intended to suggest that any Underwriter is making such a recommendation.

17. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) among the Company, the Selling Stockholder and the Underwriters, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

18. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

19. The Company, the Selling Stockholder and each of the Underwriters hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

20. This Agreement may be executed by any one or more of the parties hereto in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including any electronic signature covered by the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures and Records Act or other applicable law, e.g., www.docusign.com) or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes.

21. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the Company and the Selling Stockholder is authorized to disclose to any persons the U.S. federal and state income tax treatment and tax structure of the potential transaction and all materials of any kind (including tax opinions and other tax analyses) provided to the Company or the Selling Stockholder relating to

that treatment and structure, without the Underwriters imposing any limitation of any kind. However, any information relating to the tax treatment and tax structure shall remain confidential (and the foregoing sentence shall not apply) to the extent necessary to enable any person to comply with securities laws. For this purpose, “tax structure” is limited to any facts that may be relevant to that treatment.

22. (a) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(b) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

For purposes of this Section a “BHC Act Affiliate” has the meaning assigned to the term “affiliate” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k). “Covered Entity” means any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b). “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable. “U.S. Special Resolution Regime” means each of (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding, please sign and return to us counterparts hereof, and upon the acceptance hereof by you, on behalf of each of the Underwriters, this letter and such acceptance hereof shall constitute a binding agreement among each of the Underwriters, the Company and the Selling Stockholder.

Lock-Up Agreement

, 2023

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC

Re: Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc. — Public Offering

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned understands that the underwriters named in Schedule I to the Underwriting Agreement (as defined below) (the “Underwriters”), propose to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Beacon Roofing Supply, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and CD&R Boulder Holdings, L.P. (the “Selling Stockholder”), providing for a public offering (the “Public Offering”) of shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Stock”), of the Company, pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-273768) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

In consideration of the agreement by the Underwriters to offer and sell the Shares, and of other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned agrees that, subject to the other provisions of this Lock-Up Agreement, during the period specified in the following paragraph (the “Lock-Up Period”), the undersigned will not, without having received a prior written waiver from the Underwriters, (i) offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of any shares of Stock of the Company, or any options or warrants to purchase shares of Stock, shares acquired upon the vesting of restricted stock units or settlement of deferred stock units or any securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, Stock (collectively the “Undersigned’s Shares”), the foregoing restriction being expressly agreed to preclude the undersigned from engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or which reasonably would be expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition of the Undersigned’s Shares even if such Shares would be disposed of by someone other than the undersigned, or (ii) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Undersigned’s Shares.

The Lock-Up Period will commence on the date of the preliminary prospectus supplement in connection with the Public Offering of Shares and continue for 30 days after the Public Offering date set forth on the final prospectus pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the undersigned may transfer the Undersigned’s Shares without having received a written waiver from the Underwriters, provided that (1) any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value (other than those described below in (i), (ii), (v),

Annex II-1

(vii), (ix) and (x)), (2) such transfers (other than those described below in (i)-(iii), (vii), (ix) and (x)) are not required to be reported with the SEC on Form 4 in accordance with Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and (3) the undersigned does not otherwise voluntarily effect any public filing or report regarding such transfers:

(i) as sales to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement; or

(ii) any transfer pursuant to a bona fide third party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction made to all holders of the Stock involving a change of control of the Company; or

(iii) as a bona fide gift or gifts; or

(iv) (iv) transfers by will or intestacy or by operation of law pursuant to a qualified domestic order or in connection with a divorce settlement; or

(v) to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned (for purposes of this Lock-Up Agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage, domestic partnership or adoption, not more remote than first cousin); or

(vi) to the undersigned’s partners, members or shareholders, subsidiaries, affiliates or to any investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by, or under common control or management with, the undersigned; or

(vii) dispositions or forfeiture of shares of Stock of the undersigned or the retention of shares of Stock by the Company (A) to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the exercise of options to purchase Stock, the vesting of restricted stock units or performance shares or the settlement of deferred stock units or (B) in payment of the exercise or purchase price with respect to the exercise of options to purchase Stock, the vesting of restricted stock units or performance shares or the settlement of deferred stock units; or

(viii) transfers of shares of Stock by the undersigned in connection with bona fide gifts of such shares of Stock to charitable organizations by certain partners and employees of the undersigned, its affiliates or any investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by, or under common control or management with, the undersigned; or

(ix) transfers, including sales, of shares of Stock by the undersigned pursuant to any trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act that has been entered into by the undersigned prior to the date of this Lock-Up Agreement; or

(x) transfers of shares of Stock or other securities acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the Public Offering;

provided, however, that (I) in the case of clauses (iii)-(vi) and (viii), the Underwriters shall have received a signed lock-up agreement for the balance of the Lock-Up Period from each donee, trustee, distributee, or transferee, as the case may be, prior to such transfer and (II) in the case of clause (ix), if the undersigned is required to file a report under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Annex II-2

reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of shares of common stock, the undersigned shall include a statement in such report to the effect that such transfer is pursuant to an existing Rule 10b5-1 plan; and provided further that nothing in this Lock-Up Agreement shall prevent the (x) establishment of a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act for the transfer of shares of Stock, provided that such plan does not provide for the transfer of Stock during the Lock-Up Period, (y) acquisition of shares of Stock, restricted or otherwise, options or warrants to purchase shares of Stock, restricted stock units and performance shares of the Company or (z) exercise of any option or warrant to purchase shares of Stock or the vesting of any restricted stock unit or performance shares of the Company in accordance with their terms. The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the Undersigned’s Shares except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions, to the extent such Shares are held with the Company’s transfer agent.

The undersigned understands that, if the Underwriting Agreement does not become effective, or if the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the Shares to be sold thereunder, the undersigned shall automatically be released from all obligations under this Lock-Up Agreement. This Lock-Up Agreement shall lapse and become null and void if the closing of the Public Offering shall not have occurred on or before August 30, 2023.

The undersigned understands that the Company, the Selling Stockholder and the Underwriters are relying upon this Lock-Up Agreement in proceeding toward consummation of the Public Offering. The undersigned further understands that this Lock-Up Agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns.

Very truly yours,
