Separation Agreement, dated as of September 1, 2023, by and between CECO Environmental Corp. and Paul Gohr

Departure. Executive’s duties as Chief Accounting Officer shall conclude on September 1, 2023 (the “Departure Date”) and Executive’s employment with the Company shall cease on the Departure Date. The Company shall be deemed to have satisfied the notice requirements for a termination of the Executive’s employment to be effective as of the Departure Date under Section 4(a) of the Company’s Executive Change in Control Severance Plan (the “Plan”) with effective date March 3, 2023 (a copy attached hereto) in which the Executive is a Participant (as defined in the Plan). For the avoidance of doubt, Executive was not approved as a Participant in the Company’s Amended and Restated Executive Change in Control Severance Plan that became effective July 6, 2023.

Departure Payments. The Company will provide the Executive with the following compensation, provided, in the case of paragraphs (b)-(f), that the Executive has timely executed and not revoked the Release (as defined in Section 6 of this Agreement) and provided further that the Executive does not violate Section 5 of this Agreement:

The Company will pay the Executive, in a lump sum in cash within 30 days after the Departure Date, the Executive’s annual base salary earned through the Departure Date to the extent not theretofore paid, less applicable withholding taxes and other deductions required by applicable law or authorized by the Executive.

The Company will pay the Executive One Hundred Twenty-Four Thousand Eight Hundred Dollars ($124,800) in a lump sum in cash, less applicable withholding taxes and other deductions required by applicable law or authorized by the Executive, representing 26 weeks of the Executive’s base salary as of the Departure Date, which amount will be paid to the Executive as soon as practicable (but no later than 74 days) following the Departure Date.

The Company will pay the Executive a lump sum amount equal to Twenty Thousand Dollars ($20,000), less applicable withholding taxes and other deductions required by applicable law or authorized by the Executive, to enable the Executive to obtain executive-level outplacement services, the Company will pay this amount to the Executive as soon as practicable (but no later than 74 days) following the Departure Date.

If the Executive timely elects continuation coverage under the Company’s health, dental and vision plans pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget

Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA), the Company will pay to the insurance carrier for the Executive’s benefit the Company’s subsidy toward the cost of medical coverage for similarly situated active executives enrolled in the same coverage in which the Executive was enrolled at the time of the Departure Date for a period not to exceed 6 months from the Departure Date. The total lump sum for six months would be $14,362.44 for medical, dental, vision for the plan Executive was enrolled in at the time of the Departure Date (Employee plus Family). The Company’s payment of such subsidy will be treated as a taxable payment to the Executive.

Provided the Company determines in good faith that Executive has fulfilled all of the Executive’s transition duties, the Company shall pay to the Executive a lump sum cash amount equal to (i) the product obtained by multiplying (A) the full year annual bonus that the Executive would have earned had the Executive remained employed through the end of the fiscal year in which the Departure Date occurs, assuming target performance under the applicable performance targets has been met, by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of days that have elapsed during the fiscal year through the Departure Date and the denominator of which is 365 less (ii) applicable withholding taxes and other and other deductions required by applicable law or authorized by the Executive. The amount, calculated to be $66,473 (gross), will be payable as soon as practicable (but no later than 74 days) following the Departure Date.

In lieu of and notwithstanding the default treatment set forth in the award agreements applicable to the service-based restricted stock unit awards granted to the Executive in 2020, 2021 and 2022 that remain unvested and outstanding as of the Departure Date (the “RSUs”), as set forth on Exhibit A, such RSUs shall accelerate and be deemed vested as of the Departure Date, and shall be settled in shares not later than March 15, 2024.

Obligations of Executive at Departure. Executive hereby resigns as an officer or director of any subsidiaries of the Company or any other position held with the Company or its subsidiaries effective as of the Departure Date and represents and warrants that Executive will, on or before the Departure Date, execute such documentation as the Company deems necessary with respect to such resignations. Executive further represents and warrants that Executive will, on or before such date, deliver to the Company the original and all copies of all documents, records, and property of any nature whatsoever which are in Executive’s possession or control and which are the property of the Company or which relate to Confidential Information (as described below), or to the business activities, facilities, employees, vendors, suppliers or customers of the Company, including any records (electronic or otherwise), documents or property created by the Executive, and shall permanently delete (and not retain copies of) any such records maintained on the Executive’s personal devices.
