Array Technologies, Inc. Executive Severance and Change in Control Plan

The purpose of the Plan is to provide separation pay and other benefits to executive officers of Array Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) and its Affiliates upon an Involuntary Termination. The Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), has adopted the Plan, effective on the Effective Date.

Unless otherwise provided herein, including as related to the time of payment of benefits hereunder as provided in Section 4.3 of the Plan, the Plan supersedes any and all severance plans, policies and/or practices of the Company and its Affiliates in effect for Eligible Employees that provide for severance payments under the circumstances described herein including offer letters or employment agreements that provide for the payment and provision of severance compensation and benefits to the Eligible Employee. The Severance Benefits payable under the Plan shall apply to Involuntary Terminations on and after the Effective Date. In no event shall a Participant receive severance compensation and benefits under the Plan and under any other severance plan, policy or practice of the Company or any Affiliate or under any employment, severance-benefit, change in control or similar agreement with the Company or any of its Affiliates. The Severance Benefits are intended to be supplemental unemployment benefits and are not intended to be deferred compensation.

(c)(i) all time-based restricted stock units that are outstanding and unvested on the Separation Date (after giving effect to any accelerated vesting provided under the terms of the award agreements evidencing such awards) shall continue to vest in accordance with their terms as if the Participant had continued to remain employed by the Company (or an Affiliate) on each applicable subsequent vesting date and (ii) all performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) that are outstanding on the Separation Date for which the performance period has not been completed will remain outstanding and eligible to vest based on actual achievement of the performance metrics through the applicable performance period, each as set forth in the award agreement evidencing such award of PSUs, pro-rated to reflect the portion of the performance period during which the Participant was employed by the Company (or an Affiliate) through the Separation Date; and

(d)except as expressly noted, participation in all Company employee benefit plans will end as of the Separation Date.

(c)(i) all time-based restricted stock units that are outstanding and unvested on the Separation Date (after giving effect to any accelerated vesting provided under the terms of the award agreements evidencing such awards) shall continue to vest in accordance with their terms as if the Participant had continued to remain employed by the Company (or an Affiliate) on each applicable subsequent vesting date and (ii) all PSUs that are outstanding on the Separation Date for which the performance period has not been completed will remain outstanding and eligible to vest based on actual achievement of the performance metrics through the applicable performance period, each as set forth in the award agreement evidencing such award of PSUs; and

4.3.Timing of Payments. Except as otherwise provided in Article 9 or elsewhere herein, and provided that the Participant has complied with the terms and conditions of the Separation Agreement and the Plan, any payments due to the Participant shall be paid as follows:

(a)Payments due under Sections 4.1(a), 4.1(b), 4.2(a) and 4.2(b), shall be payable as a salary continuation in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices, with each payment being due and payable on each scheduled payroll date, beginning within 60 days following the Separation Date, as soon as administratively practicable following the date on which the Separation Agreement becomes effective, with the first payment to include any payments that would have been paid during such period had payment started on the first scheduled payroll date after the Separation Date; provided, that to the extent a Participant is party to an agreement with the Company or an Affiliate on the Effective Date pursuant to which the Participant is entitled to a lump sum severance payment, that portion of the payments due under Sections 4.1(a) and 4.2(a) that is equal to the amount of such lump sum severance payment as of the Effective Date shall be paid in a lump sum no later than 60 days from the Separation Date, with the remainder of the payments made as salary continuation as provided for herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Separation Date occurs in one taxable year and the date that is 60 days following the Separation Date occurs in a second taxable year, to the extent required by Section 409A, such payments shall not be made prior to the first day of the second taxable year.

(b)In the case of any restricted stock units that vest pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2, as applicable, notwithstanding any contrary provision in the equity compensation plan under which such award was granted or in the award agreement evidencing such award, such shares shall be delivered as soon as administratively practicable after the Separation Agreement becomes effective, but in no event later than (i) 60 days following the Separation Date for any time-based restricted stock units that vest by their terms prior to such date and thereafter as soon as administratively practicable after the vesting date of such RSUs and (ii) for any PSUs, as soon as reasonably practicable following the vesting date of such PSUs, but in no event later than the March 15th of the year following the year in which the performance period ends, as set forth in the applicable award agreement (or any earlier date, after vesting, as may be required to avoid characterization as non-qualified deferred compensation under Section 409A). Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to Article 9, if the Separation Date occurs in one taxable year and the date that is 60 days following the Separation Date occurs in a second taxable year, to the extent required by Section 409A, such cash or shares shall not be delivered prior to the first day of the second taxable year.

(c)For the avoidance of doubt, if an Eligible Employee does not execute a Separation Agreement within the period specified in Section 3.2 or if an Eligible Employee or

Participant subsequently revokes or breaches an executed Separation Agreement, the Eligible Employee shall not become a Participant, shall not be entitled to any Severance Benefits, and neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates shall have any further obligations to the Eligible Employee under the Plan. To the extent such breach occurs after an Eligible Employee becomes a Participant, the payment of Severance Benefits shall immediately cease, and any Severance Benefits already paid shall be subject to clawback by the Administrator. Regardless of whether the Eligible Employee executes or revokes the Separation Agreement, the Eligible Employee is entitled to receive the Accrued Compensation.

4.4.Voluntary Resignation; Termination for Death or Disability. If an Eligible Employee’s employment terminates for any reason other than an Involuntary Termination, then the Eligible Employee shall not be entitled to receive Severance Benefits under the Plan and shall be entitled only to receive his or her Accrued Compensation. Except as described in this Section 4.4, neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates shall have any further obligations to the Eligible Employee under the Plan.

4.5.Termination for Cause. If an Eligible Employee’s employment terminates on account of termination by the Company or an Affiliate for Cause, or if after an Involuntary Termination, circumstances that would have given rise to termination for Cause are discovered, the Eligible Employee shall not be entitled to receive Severance Benefits and shall be entitled only to receive his or her Accrued Compensation. Except as described in this Section 4.5, neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates shall have any further obligations to such Eligible Employee or Participant as applicable under the Plan. Nothing in the Plan shall limit the Company’s and Affiliates’ rights to damages and other remedies in the event of misconduct that constitutes Cause.

4.6.Severance Benefits in the Event of Death of a Participant. If a Participant dies while any amount would still be payable to him or her hereunder had he or she continued to live, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid to the Participant’s Beneficiary within the time period provided for under Section 4.1 or 4.2, as applicable.

Anything in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that it shall be determined that any payment or benefit made or provided, or to be made or provided, by the Company or any of its Affiliates (or any successor thereto) to or for the benefit of a Participant, whether pursuant to the terms of the Plan, any other agreement, plan, program or arrangement of or with the Company or any of its Affiliates (or any successor thereto) or otherwise (any such payment or benefit, individually, the “Payment” and collectively, the “Payments”), will be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any comparable tax imposed by any replacement or successor provision of United States tax law (the “Excise Tax”), then such Participant shall be entitled to receive (a) the amount of such Payments, reduced such that no portion thereof shall fail to be tax deductible under Section 280G of the Code (the “Limited Amount”), or (b) the full Payments, whichever results in the greatest after-tax proceeds to the Participant. Any amount paid under this Article 5 shall be subject to normal federal, state and local tax withholding requirements. In the event that it is determined that the aggregate amount of the Payments will be reduced in accordance with this Article 5, the Payments shall be reduced on a nondiscretionary basis in such a way as to minimize the reduction in the economic value deliverable to the Participant. In applying this principle, the reduction shall be made in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A, and where more than one payment has the same value for this purpose and they are payable at different times, they will be reduced on a pro-rata basis. All determinations to be made under this Article 5 shall be made by the nationally recognized independent public accounting firm or valuation firm selected by the Company in its reasonable discretion (“Accounting Firm”). Any such determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company, its Affiliates and the Participant. All of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm in performing the determinations referred to in this Article 5 shall be borne solely by the Company or an Affiliate.

Receipt and retention of Severance Benefits by an Eligible Employee is expressly conditioned upon the Eligible Employee’s continued compliance with all non-competition, non-solicitation and/or confidentiality obligations contained in any applicable agreement between the Eligible Employee and the Company and/or any of its Affiliates or their respective subsidiaries, both before and after becoming a Participant. In the event an Eligible Employee fails to comply with any of these

conditions: (i) the Eligible Employee shall cease to be entitled to receive any Severance Benefits, (ii) the Eligible Employee shall return any Severance Benefits previously paid to or for him or her, and (iii) the Company shall be entitled to recover any such Severance Benefits not returned by the Eligible Employee.

6.1.Non-Disparagement. Subject to the fourth sentence of Section 6.2, during an Eligible Employee’s employment with the Company or an Affiliate, and continuing after the Separation Date, an Eligible Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, by any manner or means, in public or in private, disparage orally or in writing the Company or its Affiliates’ business, management, products or services, and will not otherwise do or say anything that could disrupt the good morale of employees of the Company or any of its Affiliates or harm the interests or reputation of the Company or any of its Affiliates.

6.2.Confidentiality. Other than as required by applicable law or for the proper performance of his or her duties and responsibilities to the Company or any of its Affiliates during his or her employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates, no Eligible Employee shall disclose to any person or use any Confidential Information obtained by such individual incident to his or her employment or other association with the Company or any of its Affiliates. As of the Separation Date, Eligible Employees must return all such Confidential Information to the Company, materials that incorporate or reference such Confidential Information, and all copies thereof. The confidentiality condition under this Section 6.2 shall not apply to information which is generally known or readily available to the public at the time of disclosure or becomes generally known through no wrongful act on the part of the Eligible Employee or any other person having an obligation of confidentiality to the Company or any of its Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in the Plan limits, restricts or in any other way affects an Eligible Employee’s communicating with any governmental agency or entity, or communicating with any official or staff person of a governmental agency or entity, concerning matters relevant to the governmental agency or entity, or requires an Eligible Employee to provide prior notice to the Company of the same. An Eligible Employee cannot be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for disclosing a trade secret (a) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (b) in a complaint or other document filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding. Notwithstanding this immunity from liability, an Eligible Employee may be held liable if he or she unlawfully accesses trade secrets by unauthorized means.

7.1.Withholding of Taxes; Taxes. The Company and any Affiliate shall be entitled to withhold from any amounts payable under the Plan all taxes as legally shall be required (including, without limitation, any United States federal taxes, and any other state, city, or local taxes). Regardless of the amount withheld or reported, each Eligible Employee shall be solely responsible for the payment of all taxes that become due as a result of a payment or other rights (including imputed income) to the him or her under the Plan.

7.2.Funding. The Plan shall be funded out of the general assets of the Company or an Affiliate as and when Severance Benefits are payable under the Plan. All Eligible Employees shall be solely general creditors of the Company and Affiliates.

8.1.Successors to the Company. The Company or an Affiliate will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise) of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company or an Affiliate or of any division or subsidiary thereof to expressly assume and agree to perform the Company’s or an Affiliate’s obligations under the Plan in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company or the Affiliate would be required to perform them if no such succession had taken place.

8.2.Assignment by Eligible Employee or Participant. Except in the event of death, an Eligible Employee or Participant does not have the power to transfer, assign, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber any rights or any amounts payable under the Plan, nor will any such rights or amounts payable under the Plan be subject to seizure, attachment, execution, garnishment or other legal or equitable process, or for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony, or separate maintenance, or be transferable by operation of law in the event of bankruptcy, insolvency, or

otherwise. In the event an Eligible Employee or Participant attempts to assign, transfer or dispose of such right, or if an attempt is made to subject such right to such process, such assignment, transfer or disposition will be null and void.

9.1.The Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A, to the extent applicable, and the Plan shall be interpreted consistently with the intent to avoid any tax under Section 409A. For the avoidance of doubt, however, no provision of the Plan shall transfer liability for taxes under Section 409A from the Eligible Employee or Participant to the Company, any Affiliate, or any other person. Accordingly, all provisions herein, or incorporated by reference, shall be construed and interpreted to comply with Section 409A and, if necessary, any such provision shall be deemed amended to comply with Section 409A and the regulations thereunder. If any payment or benefit cannot be provided or made at the time specified herein without incurring any accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, then such benefit or payment shall be provided in full at the earliest time thereafter when such accelerated or additional tax will not be imposed, and vice versa. All payments to be made upon a separation, termination of employment, or similar event under the Plan may only be made upon a “separation from service” (as defined in Treas. Reg. §1.409A-l(h), after giving effect to the presumptions contained therein) to the extent required under Section 409A. For purposes of Section 409A, each payment made under the Plan shall be treated as a separate payment. In no event may an Eligible Employee or Participant, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of payment of any severance benefit payable hereunder.

9.3.To the maximum extent permitted under Section 409A, the Severance Benefits payable under the Plan are intended to comply with the “short-term deferral exception” under Treas. Reg. §1.409A-l(b)(4), and any remaining amount is intended to comply with the “separation pay exception” under Treas. Reg. §1.409A-l(b)(9)(iii). Any portion of the Severance Benefits that are payable under the Plan to a Participant during the six-month period following the Participant’s Separation Date that does not qualify within either of the foregoing exceptions and constitutes deferred compensation subject to the requirements of Section 409A shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Excess Amount”. If at the time of the Participant’s separation from service, the Company’s (or any entity required to be aggregated with the Company under Section 409A) stock is publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise and the Participant is a “specified employee” (as defined in Section 409A and determined in the sole discretion of the Company (or any successor thereto) in accordance with the Company’s (or any successor thereto) “specified employee” determination policy), then the Company shall postpone the commencement of the payment of the portion of the Excess Amount that is payable within the six-month period following the Participant’s Separation Date for six months following the Participant’s Separation Date. The delayed Excess Amount shall be paid in a lump sum to the Participant within 10 days following the date that is six months following the Participant’s Separation Date and any remaining installments shall continue to be paid to the Participant in accordance with the original schedule provided herein. If the Participant dies during such six-month period and prior to the payment of the portion of the Excess Amount that is required to be delayed on account of Section 409A, such Excess Amount shall be paid to the personal representative of the Participant’s Beneficiary within 60 days after the Participant’s death.

(a)    Any request or claim for benefits under the Plan shall be deemed to be filed when a written request is made by the claimant or the claimant’s authorized representative which is reasonably calculated to bring the claim to the attention of the Administrator.

(b)    The Administrator, or its designee, shall advise the claimant, or such claimant’s representative, in writing or in electronic form, of its decision within 90 days of receipt of the claim for Severance Benefits under the Plan, unless special circumstances require an extension of such 90-day period for not more than an additional 90 days. Where such extension is necessary, the claimant shall be given written notice of the delay before the expiration of the initial 90-day period, which notice shall set forth the reasons for the delay and the date the Administrator expects to render its decision.

(c)    The Administrator’s response to a claim shall (i) be in writing or in electronic form; and (ii) in the case of an adverse benefit determination: (A) set forth the reason(s) for the denial of benefits; (B) contain references to Plan provisions on which the denial is based; (C) describe the additional material and information, if any, necessary for the claim for benefits to be perfected and an explanation of why such material or information is necessary; and (D) describe the Plan’s review procedures and the time limits applicable to such procedures, including a statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA following an adverse benefit determination on review.

(a)    If the claimant or the claimant’s authorized representative fails to appeal the Administrator’s adverse benefit determination, in writing, within 60 days after its receipt by the claimant, the Administrator’s determination shall become final and conclusive.

(b)    If the claimant or the claimant’s authorized representative appeals the Administrator’s adverse benefit determination in a timely fashion, the Administrator shall reexamine all issues relevant to the original denial of benefits. Any such claimant or his or her duly authorized representative may review any relevant documents, records and other information, free of charge, including documents and records that were relied upon in making the benefit determination, documents submitted, considered or generated in the course of making the benefit determination (even if such documents were not relied upon in making the benefit determination), and documents that demonstrate compliance, in making the benefit determination, with the Plan’s required administrative processes and safeguards. In addition, the claimant or his or her duly authorized representative may submit written comments, documents, records and other information relating to such claim for benefits. In the course of the review, the Administrator shall take into account all comments, documents, records and other information submitted by the claimant or his or her duly authorized representative relating to such claim, regardless of whether it was submitted or considered as part of the initial benefit determination.

(c)    The Administrator shall advise the claimant or such claimant’s representative, in writing or in electronic form, of its decision within 60 days of receipt of the written appeal, unless special circumstances require an extension of such 60-day period for not more than an additional 60 days. Where such extension is necessary, the claimant shall be given written notice of the delay before the expiration of the initial 60-day period, which notice shall set forth the reasons for the delay and the date the Administrator expects to render its decision. If the extension is necessary because the claimant has failed to submit the information necessary to decide the claim, the Administrator’s period for responding to such claim shall be tolled from the date on which the notification of the extension is sent to the claimant until the date on which the claimant responds to the request for additional information. In the event of an adverse benefit determination on appeal, the Administrator shall advise the claimant, in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant of: (i) the reason(s) for the adverse benefit determination; (ii) the Plan provisions on which the decision was based; (iii) the claimant’s right to receive, upon request and free of charge, and have reasonable access to, copies of all documents, records and other information relevant to such claim; and (iv) a statement describing any voluntary appeals procedures offered by the Plan, the claimant’s right to obtain information about such procedures, and a statement of the claimant’s right to bring an action under Section 502(a) of ERISA.

10.3.Exhaustion. No legal action for benefits under the Plan may be brought until the claimant (i) has submitted a written claim for benefits in accordance with the procedures described by (a) above, (ii) has been notified by the Administrator that the claim is denied, (iii) has filed a written request for a review of the claim in accordance with the appeal procedure described in Section 10.2, and (iv) has been notified that the Administrator has denied the appeal. Notwithstanding the

foregoing, if the Administrator does not respond to an Eligible Employee’s claim or appeal within the relevant time limits specified in this Article 10, the Eligible Employee may bring legal action for benefits under the Plan pursuant to Section 502(a) of ERISA. In no event may any legal proceeding regarding entitlement to benefits or any aspect of benefits under the Plan be commenced later than the earlier of: (i) one year after the date on which the claimant receives a decision from the Administrator regarding his or her appeal; and (ii) the date otherwise prescribed by applicable law.

    The Administrator will be the administrator and the named fiduciary of the Plan for purposes of ERISA. The Administrator will be the sole judge of the application and interpretation of the Plan, and will have the discretionary authority to construe the provisions of the Plan and to resolve disputed issues of fact. The Administrator will have the sole authority to make determinations regarding eligibility for benefits. The decisions of the Administrator in all matters relating to the Plan that are within the scope of its authority (including, but not limited to, eligibility for benefits, Plan interpretations, and disputed issues of fact) will be final and binding on all parties.

12.1.Employment Status. Except as may be provided under any other agreement between an Eligible Employee and the Company or an Affiliate, all employment with the Company and its Affiliates is “at will” and may be terminated by either the Eligible Employee or the Company or an Affiliate at any time, subject to applicable law. Nothing contained herein shall constitute an employment contract or guarantee of employment or confer any other rights except as set forth herein. Nothing in the Plan will be construed to create any right to employment or re-employment with the Company.

12.2.Other Payments. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, no Eligible Employee shall be entitled to any cash payments or other Severance Benefits under any of the Company’s or any Affiliate’s then current severance pay policies or under any individual employment, severance or similar agreement for a termination that is covered by the Plan for the Eligible Employee. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, acceptance of benefits under the Plan constitutes a waiver of any other separation or Severance Benefits from the Company, including without limitation any separation or Severance Benefits offered under a Participant’s employment agreement or offer letter. In the event a Participant receives a judgment for or relating to any other separation benefits from the Company, the amounts paid out under the Plan will be reduced by such judgment.

12.3.Overpayments. If a Participant receives payments in excess of the amounts specified in Article 4, the Company, it its sole discretion, may elect to deduct such overpayments from any future payments to the Participant. If all payments have been made to the Participant, the Participant will be obligated to repay any overpayments upon demand from the Company.

12.4.Conflicts. The Plan document is the sole authority for any disputes regarding the Plan. In the event there is any conflict between the terms of the Plan and any other document or oral statements describing the terms of the Plan, the Plan document will control.

12.5.No Oral Promises. No person has the authority to modify or waive or vary the terms of the Plan. No oral promise of benefits or payments under or relating to the Plan will create a right in favor of any employee or impose any obligation on the Company or the Plan. Any interpretation of the Plan or obligation under or relating to the Plan must be in writing and signed by the Administrator or its designee to be binding.

12.6.Gender and Number. Except where otherwise indicated by the context, any masculine term used herein also shall include the feminine; the plural shall include the singular, and the singular shall include the plural.

12.7.Amendment or Termination. The Board or the Committee may, in their sole discretion, amend or terminate the Plan, in whole or in part, at any time and for any reason or no reason without the consent of Participants; provided, that the Plan may not be amended or terminated during the period commencing on the Change in Control and ending on the 12 -month anniversary of such Change in Control, except for amendments that are required to comply with any changes in applicable law, and provided further that no amendment to the Plan may discontinue or change any payments to a Participant who has entered into an effective Separation Agreement under the Plan

prior to the effective date of the amendment or termination of the Plan. If the Plan is terminated, no Severance Benefits will be payable under the Plan to any Eligible Employee who has not entered into an effective Separation Agreement under the Plan prior to the effective date of such termination. For the avoidance of doubt, any Separation Agreement that took effect prior to the date the Plan is amended or terminated shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

12.8.Governing Law. To the extent not preempted by the laws of the United States, the Plan shall be construed and enforced under and be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of New Mexico, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof. The sole and exclusive jurisdiction for any dispute or claim arising from this Agreement shall be the United States Federal District Court for the District of New Mexico.

12.9.Headings. The headings of the Plan are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall have no effect upon the meaning of provisions hereof.

12.10.Incompetency. In the event that the Administrator finds that a Participant is unable to care for his or her affairs because of illness or accident, then benefits payable hereunder, unless claim has been made therefor by a duly appointed guardian, committee, or other legal representative, may be paid in such manner as the Administrator shall determine, and the application thereof shall be a complete discharge of all liability for any payments or benefits to which such Participant was or would have been otherwise entitled under the Plan.
