    This Long-Term Incentive Cash Award Agreement (this "Agreement") is entered into as of [DATE] (the "Award Date") by and between Columbia Sportswear Company, an Oregon corporation (the "Company"), and [NAME] (the "Recipient").

    The Award is made pursuant to Section 7 of the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the "Plan") (though the Award shall be settled in cash), and the Recipient desires to accept the award subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the Plan. The terms of the Plan are incorporated by reference in this Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement have the meanings set forth in the Plan.

    IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, the parties agree to the following.

    1. Award. The Company awards to the Recipient under the Plan a Long-Term Incentive Cash Award with a target amount of [$] (the "Award"), subject to forfeiture and adjustment as provided in Section 1 of this Agreement and to the restrictions, terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

    (a)    Rights under Award. The Award represents the unfunded, unsecured right to require the Company to deliver to the Recipient a payment in cash as provided in this Agreement. The amount of cash deliverable with respect to the Award is subject to adjustment as provided in Section 1(b) and Section 1(c) of this Agreement.

    (b)    Vesting. The Award shall initially be 100% unvested and subject to forfeiture. The Award is subject to both a performance-based vesting condition (the "Performance Vesting Condition") based on the Company's cumulative operating income ("Cumulative Operating Income") and a time-based vesting condition (the "Time-Based Vesting Condition"). Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, no portion of the Award shall vest and become eligible for payment in cash until both the Performance Vesting Condition and the Time-Based Vesting Condition are satisfied.

(1)    Adjustment to Award Based on Achievement of Performance. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, for the period beginning [DATE] and ending [DATE] (the "Performance Period"), the Award is subject to increase, decrease or forfeiture (and if forfeited the Recipient shall have no right to receive any cash related to the Award), based on achievement of the Cumulative Operating Income during the Performance Period. Following the last day of the Performance Period, the Talent and Compensation Committee of the Board (the "Compensation Committee") shall certify the percentage of the Award that is earned (the "Earned Award") for the Performance Period, based on the table below. If results are between data points, the percentage of the Award payable shall be determined by linear interpolation between data points.

"Cumulative Operating Income" means the sum of the annual income from operations for each of the two fiscal years in the Performance Period as set forth in the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company, excluding the following items (collectively, the "Excluded Effects"), for the Performance Period:

(A)business development costs, including business advisory, investment banking, lending, legal, tax and accounting fees ("Business Development Costs") in connection with any single transaction, whether or not completed, in excess of $250,000; except in connection with a completed transaction that results in a benefit in excess of $250,000 to the Company’s income before income taxes and bonus expense, in which case no Business Development Costs relating to the completed transaction will be excluded;

(B)operating results and net assets of acquired businesses in the year of acquisition will be excluded from the computations of operating income before bonus and return on invested capital;

(C)    restructuring costs, except for routine severance costs of $2,000,000 or less, in excess of those costs reflected in the performance target;

(D)extraordinary discrete and program related costs of $2,000,000 or more incurred in support of the Company’s enterprise and/or operational projects in excess of costs reflected in the performance target and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors;

(E)    tangible and intangible asset impairment charges, except for retail store impairments;

(F)the effects of changes in accounting principles or other similar laws, rules or regulations affecting reported results, including midyear tax changes, such as import/export taxes, not otherwise excluded in the bonus calculation; and

(G)the effects of the following force majeure events beyond the reasonable control of management (and not as a product or result of the Company’s conduct), each to be itemized and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors:

(1)war, invasion, hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or acts, riot or other civil unrest;

(2)action by any governmental authority and/or government orders or laws, curtailing business activities or threatening reputational harm including embargoes, sanctions or blockades; and

(3)unbudgeted financial impacts resulting from an epidemic, pandemic or similar viral or bacterial infection (which is defined by the United States Center for Disease Control as virulent human influenza or infection that may cause global outbreak, or pandemic, or serious illness).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, disregard all or any part of any Excluded Effects when determining the Performance Results for the Performance Period.

(2)    Time-Based Vesting Condition. Following the last day of the Performance Period, any Earned Award shall satisfy the Time-Based Vesting Condition on the one-year anniversary of the last day of the Performance Period (the "Vesting Date"). If the Vesting Date falls on a weekend or any other day on which the Nasdaq Stock Market ("NSM") or any national securities exchange on which the Common Stock then is principally traded (the "Exchange") is not open, the Earned Award shall vest on the next following NSM or Exchange business day, as the case may be. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Recipient must be continuously employed by the Company from the Award Date through the Vesting Date to satisfy the Time-Based Vesting Condition and receive the Common Stock in respect of the Earned Award pursuant to Section 1(e).

    (c)    Adjustment of Award.

        (1)    Treatment of Award on Termination of Employment that is not a Qualified Termination. If the Recipient ceases to be continuously employed by the Company on or prior to the Vesting Date, and such termination of employment is not due to the Recipient's (i) retirement on any date that is after the later of (A) the second anniversary of the first day of the Performance Period and (B) the Recipient's retirement eligibility date or (ii) death or total disability that occurs after at least six months of the Performance Period has elapsed (any such termination pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii), a "Qualified Termination"), the Recipient shall immediately forfeit the entire Award pursuant to this Agreement and the Recipient shall have no right to receive any related cash thereunder. If the

Recipient ceases to be continuously employed by the Company for any reason after the Vesting Date, the Recipient shall be entitled to receive the Earned Award, subject to the Recipient's compliance with the Recipient's continuing obligations to the Company. In the event of a Recipient's Qualified Termination, the Recipient's Award shall not be immediately forfeited and shall instead be eligible to vest as provided in Section 1(c)(2) or Section 1(c)(3) of this Agreement, as applicable.

        (2)     Treatment of Award on a Qualified Termination Due to Retirement. If the Recipient ceases to be continuously employed by the Company on or prior to the Vesting Date as a result of retirement on any date that is after the later of (i) the second anniversary of the first day of the Performance Period and (ii) the Recipient's retirement eligibility date, the Recipient shall be eligible to receive a prorated portion of the Earned Award pursuant to Section 1(e), subject to the Recipient's compliance with the Recipient's continuing obligations to the Company. Subject to Section 1(c)(4), such prorated amount shall be equal to the product of (x) the amount of the Earned Award, multiplied by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days of continuous employment from the beginning of the Performance Period through the date of the Recipient's Qualified Termination due to retirement and the denominator of which is the total number of calendar days from the beginning of the Performance Period through the Vesting Date. For purposes of applying Section 1(e), the Vesting Date shall be treated as the "applicable vesting date" in respect of a Qualified Termination due to retirement, such that the timing of the delivery date referenced in Section 1(e) shall be the same as if no such Qualified Termination had occurred. For purposes of this Agreement, "retirement" shall have the same meaning as provided in the applicable policy maintained by the Company for the benefit of the Recipient or, in the absence of such policy, as determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee in its discretion in accordance with applicable law.

            (3)    Acceleration of Vesting on Qualified Termination Due to Death or Total Disability. If the Recipient ceases to be continuously employed by the Company on or prior to the Vesting Date as a result of death or total disability that occurs at least six months after commencement of the Performance Period, subject to Section 1(c)(4), a prorated amount of the Recipient's Award pursuant to this Agreement immediately shall become vested in an amount equal to the product of (i) the amount of the Award (or, if the Qualified Termination due to death or total disability occurs after the last day of the Performance Period, the Earned Amount), multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days of continuous employment from the beginning of the Performance Period through the date of the Recipient's Qualified Termination due to death or total disability and the denominator of which is the total number of calendar days from the beginning of the Performance Period through the Vesting Date. The date of the Recipient's Qualified Termination due to death or total disability shall be treated as the "applicable vesting date" for purposes of applying Section 1(e). For purposes of the foregoing, "total disability" shall have the same meaning as provided in any long-term disability policy maintained by the Company for the benefit of the Recipient or, in the absence of such policy, as determined by the Board or the Compensation Committee in its discretion in accordance with applicable law.

(4)    Treatment of Leave of Absence. Absence on leave approved by the Board or the Compensation Committee shall not be deemed a termination or interruption of employment or service. Unless otherwise determined by the Company, the Board or the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion, (i) vesting of the Award shall continue during a medical, family or military leave of absence, whether paid or unpaid, and (ii) vesting of the Award shall be suspended during, and the amount of the Award deliverable at the applicable vesting date shall be proportionately reduced as a result of, any other unpaid leave of absence.

(5)    Forfeiture of Award on Violation of Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. The Recipient acknowledges that compliance with the Company's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is a condition to the receipt and vesting of the Award. If, during the term of this Agreement, the Board (or a committee of directors designated by the Board) determines in good faith that the Recipient's conduct is or has been in violation of the Company's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, then the Board or committee may cause the Recipient to immediately forfeit all or a portion of the unvested Award granted pursuant to this Agreement and the Recipient shall have no right to receive the related cash.

     

    (d)    Restrictions on Transfer and Delivery on Death. The Recipient may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber or dispose of the Award subject to this Agreement. If the Recipient dies before the delivery date, the cash payment shall be delivered to the Recipient's estate.

    (e)    Payment. As soon as practicable following the applicable vesting date, the Company shall pay in cash the amount represented by the vested portion of the Award to the Recipient (the date of delivery of such cash amount is referred to as a "delivery date"); provided that the Recipient has satisfied its tax withholding obligations as specified under Section 1(f) and the Recipient has

completed, signed and returned any documents and taken any additional action the Company deems appropriate. In the in the event of the Recipient's death, the cash payment shall be made to the Recipient’s estate.

    Notwithstanding the foregoing, a delivery date may be delayed in order to provide the Company such time as it determines appropriate to determine tax withholding and other administrative matters; provided, however, that in any event the cash payment shall be made not later than, as applicable, (A) the March 15 that immediately follows the Vesting Date or (B) if the Award vests in accordance with Section 1(c)(3), March 15 of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year that includes the date of the Recipient's Qualified Termination due to death or total disability.

    (f)    Taxes and Tax Withholding.

        (i)    The Recipient acknowledges that under United States federal tax laws in effect on the Award Date, the Recipient will have taxable compensation income based on the amount of the cash payment made to the Recipient pursuant to the Award. The Recipient shall be responsible for all taxes imposed in connection with the Award, regardless of any action the Company takes with respect to any tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the Award. The Company makes no representation or undertaking regarding the adequacy of any tax withholding in connection with the grant or vesting of the Award.

        (ii)    The Company shall deduct from any and all cash payments pursuant to the Award all domestic or foreign income, employment or other tax withholding obligation, whether national, federal, state or local (the "Tax Withholding Obligation"), arising as a result of any grant, vesting or payment of cash pursuant to this Award, in amounts determined by the Company.

    (g)    No Solicitation. (This provision is not applicable to California employees.) The Recipient agrees that for 18 months after the Recipient's employment with the Company terminates for any reason, with or without cause, whether by the Company or the Recipient, the Recipient shall not recruit, attempt to hire, solicit, or assist others in recruiting or hiring, any person who is an employee of the Company, or any of its subsidiaries. In addition to other remedies that may be available to the Company, the Recipient shall pay to the Company in cash, upon demand, the net value of any cash payment made under this Agreement if the Recipient violates this Section 1(g).

    (h)    Not a Contract of Employment. This Agreement shall not be construed as a contract of employment between the Company and the Recipient and nothing contained in this Agreement or in the Plan shall confer upon the Recipient any right to be continued in the employment of the Company or any subsidiary or to interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any subsidiary by whom the Recipient is employed to terminate the Recipient's employment at any time for any reason, with or without cause, or to decrease the Recipient's compensation or benefits.
