Form of Restricted Stock Unit Agreement under the Brady Corporation 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan

Brady Corporation (the “Corporation”) hereby grants to ________________ (“Employee”) a restricted stock unit award (the “Award”) effective_____________, 20__, pursuant to the terms of the Brady Corporation 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Corporation’s records shall be the official record of the grant described herein and, in the event of any conflict between this description and the Corporation’s records, the Corporation’s records shall control. Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings specified in the Plan.

This Award applies to X,XXX Shares of the presently authorized Class A Nonvoting Common Stock of the Corporation, $.01 par value (the “Restricted Stock Units”). The Restricted Stock Units granted under this Agreement are units that will be reflected in a book account maintained by the Corporation until they become vested or have been forfeited.

Subject to Section 3, the Award shall be subject to the following service vesting requirement. If the Employee continues in employment through the vesting dates listed below, the Restricted Stock Units shall be vested as listed in the following table:

If the Employee’s employment is terminated for any reason, any unvested Restricted Stock Units shall be governed by Section 12.04 of the Plan.

In the event of a Change in Control, all restrictions imposed on any then-outstanding Restricted Stock Units shall terminate such that any Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested immediately prior to the Change in Control. No event shall cause the Restricted Stock Units to become unrestricted and fully vested unless such event is a Change in Control.

No dividends or dividend equivalents will be paid or accrued on any Restricted Stock Units prior to the issuance of the Shares.

As soon as practicable after Restricted Stock Units become vested, the Company shall deliver to the Employee one Share for each Restricted Stock Unit which becomes vested.

This Award is non-transferable and may not be assigned, pledged or hypothecated and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any attempt to effect any such disposition, or upon the levy of any such process, the Award shall immediately become null and void and the Restricted Stock Units shall be forfeited.

The Corporation may require, as a condition to the issuance of a stock certificate, that the Employee concurrently pay to the Corporation (either in cash or, at the request of Employee, but subject to such rules and regulations as the Administrator may adopt from time to time, by tendering (either by actual delivery or by attestation) previously acquired Shares) the entire amount or a portion of any taxes which the Corporation is required to withhold by reason of the lapse of stock restrictions, in such amount as the Administrator or the Corporation in its discretion may determine. If and to the extent that withholding of any federal, state or local tax is required in connection with the lapse of the Award restrictions, the Employee may, subject to such rules and regulations as the Corporation may adopt from time to time, elect to have the Corporation hold back from the Shares to be issued upon the lapse of the Award restrictions, Shares, the Fair Market Value of which is to be applied to the Employee’s withholding obligations; provided that the Shares withheld may not have a Fair Market Value exceeding the maximum statutory tax rates in the Employee’s applicable jurisdictions.

If the Restricted Stock Units shall vest upon the death of the Employee, the Shares shall be issued and paid to the estate of the Employee unless the Corporation shall have theretofore received in writing a beneficiary designation, in which event they shall be issued and paid to the designated beneficiary.

determined in (i) a court sitting in the State of Wisconsin, and (ii) a “bench” trial, and any party to such action or proceeding shall agree to waive its right to a jury trial.

Wherever possible, each provision of this Award will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision hereof is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions hereof. A court of competent jurisdiction is expressly authorized to modify overbroad provisions so as to make them enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law and is further authorized to strike whole provisions that cannot be so modified.

In accordance with the Defend Trade Secrets Act, Employee is hereby advised that:

An individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law.

In accepting the grant of this Award, Employee agrees to, understands and acknowledges the following:

(a)The grant of the Award is discretionary, voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive any future awards, or benefits in lieu of awards, even if awards have been granted in the past. All decisions with respect to future awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company and the Committee.

(b)The grant of the Award will not be considered to be an employment contract or part of the Employee’s terms and conditions of employment or the Employee’s salary or compensation and is not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation.

(c)The Award, any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan and the income from and value of same, are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including but not limited to calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, holiday or vacation pay, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments.

(d)Unless otherwise agreed with the Company in writing, the Awards and any shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan, and the income from and value of same, are not granted in consideration for, or in connection with, the service the Employee may provide as an officer or director of a subsidiary.

In accepting the grant of this Award, the Employee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Employee’s personal data as described in this Agreement and any other grant materials by and among, as applicable, the Company for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Plan.

Further, the Employee understands that the Employee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Employee does not consent, or if the Employee later seeks to revoke the Employee’s consent, the Employee’s employment status or service relationship with the Employer will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing the Employee’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Awards to the Employee or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, the Employee understands that refusing or withdrawing the Employee’s consent may affect the Employee’s ability to participate in the Plan.
