Employment Offer Letter to David Muscato dated June 15, 2020, as amended on December 22, 2020

Primo Water Corporation (the “Primo”) recently amended and restated its Severance and Non-Competition Plan (the “Plan”). We believe the amendments made to the Plan are generous and would like to offer you the opportunity to become a participant in the Plan. However, the terms of your June 15, 2020 Offer Letter with the DS Services of America (“Offer Letter”), a subsidiary of Primo, already provide you with certain defined severance benefits (i.e., 9 months of your annual base salary) if your employment is terminated by DS Services of America (the “Company”) without Cause (other than for reason of disability) or by you for Good Reason. (See Section 4.2 of Offer Letter.) For that reason, your participation in the Plan would be in lieu of the severance benefits currently provided for in your Offer Letter.

As amended and restated, the Plan provides tiered benefits, based on a severance multiplier of a participant’s current base salary plus target bonus. As a participant, you would be eligible as a “Level 2 Employee”, which has a severance multiplier of 1.25, and the other benefits (e.g., outplacement services) set forth in the Plan. (A copy of the amended and restated Plan is attached hereto.)

Should you elect to accept the Company’s offer to participate in the Plan, your Offer Letter will be amended such that, upon your execution of this letter agreement, Sections 4.2 and 7.4 of your Offer Letter shall be deleted and replaced with the language below:

All other terms and conditions of your Offer Letter shall remain unchanged, provided that if there is any conflict between a term in the Offer Letter and the Severance and Non-Competition Plan, you agree that Primo and the Company may resolve such conflict by applying the term providing greater protection to Primo and the Company and their interests.

A copy of the amended and restated Plan is attached. Should you accept the terms of this letter agreement, please acknowledge your understanding and agreement by signing below.

Associate will not be liable for the Employer’s normal share of payroll taxes or deductions, but will agree to be liable for penalties and interest if required by the IRS.

2.Within thirty (30) days after the Company and/or any RELEASEE notifies Associate or Associate’s attorneys that the Company and/or any RELEASEE has been determined to have incurred any liability including, but not limited to, liability for payroll taxes or deductions, income withholding taxes, including federal, state or local income taxes, social security taxes, federal state or local unemployment or disability premium payments or taxes, or any other taxes which customarily are withheld from or paid with respect to wages, or any other liens, judgments, interest and/or penalties incurred because of any payment made to Associate and/or Associate’s attorneys, Associate shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the liability, interest, penalty and/or costs incurred by the Company or any other RELEASEE.

1.Associate hereby warrants, represents and certifies that Associate has not filed or instituted (and, no person or agency has filed or instituted on Associate’s behalf and/or at Associate’s direction – and if filed not at Associate’s direction, Associate will seek dismissal of) any complaints,

1.Associate hereby releases and forever discharges the Company and its insurers, affiliates (including but not limited to Primo Water Corporation and Aquaterra Corporation), divisions, parents, subsidiaries, any merged entity or merged entities, prior and successor entities, and/or its and their present and former officers, partners, directors, employees, agents, shareholders and/or successors, assigns, trustees, heirs, administrators, executors, representatives and/or principals thereof (together referred to as “RELEASEES”), from all claims, actions, causes of action, lawsuits, debts, dues, sums of money, accounts, reckonings, bonds, bills, specialties, covenants, contracts, bonuses, controversies, agreements, promises, claims, charges, complaints and demands whatsoever, whether in law or equity, known or unknown, against the RELEASEES, that Associate and the Associate’s heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns, may now have or hereafter later determine that Associate has or had upon, or by reason of, any cause or thing whatsoever, including, but not limited to, claims arising under the Americans With Disabilities Act (“ADA”), the National Labor Relations Act (“NLRA”), the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”), the Equal Pay Act (“EPA”), the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, 29

to retain records, prima facie tort, fraud, negligence, loss of consortium, malpractice, breach of duty of care, breach of fiduciary duty or any action similar thereto against RELEASEES, including any claim for attorneys’ fees, expenses or costs based upon any conduct from the beginning of the world up to and including the Effective Date of this Agreement; provided, however, that

Associate does not waive any right to file an administrative charge with the EEOC, subject to the condition that Associate agrees not to seek, or in any way obtain or accept, any monetary award, recovery or settlement therefrom; and further provided, however, that Associate does not waive any rights with respect to, or release the Company from, payments of any and all benefits and/or monies earned, accrued, vested or otherwise owing, if any, to Associate under the terms of the Company’s retirement, savings, deferred compensation and/or profit sharing plan(s) or any claims for state Disability or Workers’ Compensation benefits (except that Associate hereby releases and waives any claims that Associate’s termination was to avoid payment of such benefits or payments or that, as a result of Associate’s termination, Associate is entitled to additional benefits or payments); and further provided, however, that Associate does not release any claim of breach of the terms of this Agreement, subject to the confidentiality obligations in Paragraph 10 of this Agreement.

1.Thus, for the purpose of implementing a full and complete release and discharge of the RELEASEES, Associate expressly acknowledges that this general release is intended to include in its effect, without limitation, all claims which Associate does not know or suspect to exist in Associate’s favor at the time of execution hereof, and that this general release contemplates the extinguishment of any such claim or claims.

2.Associate agrees to immediately seek and obtain dismissal with prejudice of any complaint, lawsuit, action, cause of action, administrative charge, claim, controversy, demand, grievance or proceeding (unless such proceeding is a class action, in which case Associate agrees to “opt out” of the class and not participate in the class action and such proceeding is at or initiated by the EEOC) in the event that, for any reason, any complaint, lawsuit, action, cause of action, administrative charge, claim, controversy, demand, grievance or proceeding covered by Paragraphs 3 is pending or is instituted on Associate’s behalf, and to not, unless required by law to do so (and then subject to the terms of Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4), testify, provide documents or otherwise participate or request others to participate on Associate’s behalf in any such proceeding or litigation arising therefrom or associated therewith, and, in no event, from any such source or proceeding whatsoever, to seek, or in any way obtain or accept any monetary award, recovery, settlement or relief therefrom. Associate’s obligation to dismiss and/or withdraw any and all complaints includes, but is not limited to, any complaint made internally to the Company or any of the RELEASEES – via any medium including, but not limited to, the Company’s Ethics Point hotline – either in Associate’s own name or anonymously, about any of the RELEASEES or any associate, employee, agent, or representative of any of the RELEASEES. Should Associate file or otherwise bring a claim in violation of Paragraph 3 or fail to seek and obtain such dismissal or withdrawal or “opt out” in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Associate will, at the option of the Company, be considered in material breach of this Agreement.

3.Promise Not to Sue: A “promise not to sue” means you promise not to knowingly sue any RELEASEE in court. This is different from the General Release above. Besides releasing claims covered by that General Release, you agree never to knowingly sue any RELEASEE for any reason covered by that General Release. Despite this Promise Not to Sue, however, you may file suit to enforce this Agreement. If you sue a RELEASEE in violation of this Agreement, you shall be required to pay that RELEASEE’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and other litigation costs incurred in defending against your suit.

1.Any and All Work-Related Injuries and Accidents Reported: By signing this Agreement, Associate affirmatively represents that as of the date of Associate signing this Agreement, Associate has already reported any and all work-related injuries that Associate has ever sustained, and/or accidents Associate has ever been involved in, during Associate’s employment with the Company, to the extent Associate had ever incurred any work-related injuries or been in involved in any work-related accidents.

Associate further recognizes and agrees that Associate’s employment relationship with the Company and/or any of the other RELEASEES has been permanently and irrevocably severed. Accordingly, Associate agrees that Associate will not seek and hereby waives any claim for employment, reinstatement, re-employment, assignment or otherwise (as a full-time or part-time employee, temporary worker, independent contractor or consultant or any other position in which Associate receives payment either directly or indirectly from the Company) with the Company or any of its affiliated companies or any merged or acquired entity or entities, at any time in the future, and that, if offered such employment, re-employment, assignment or work, Associate will decline such offer, and that this Agreement shall be a complete bar to any such application for employment or re-employment; provided, however, that the terms and application of this paragraph may be waived in writing by a duly authorized representative of the employing entity at issue in its sole discretion, which writing makes specific reference to this Agreement. Associate agrees that any refusal to hire or engage Associate in the future shall be pursuant to the Parties’ mutual agreement embodied in this Agreement and shall not be actionable as unlawful in any way. Moreover, Associate agrees that as of Associate’s Termination Date, Associate will be deemed to have resigned all positions held by Associate with the Company and any of the RELEASEES as of the Termination Date, including any director or officer positions, and Associate agrees to execute written tenders of resignation as may be requested by the Company to evidence such resignations.

1.In addition to the non-disparagement terms of Associate’s Offer Letter (which shall survive this Agreement), Associate agrees to not disparage or impugn the reputation of any RELEASEE, and to not post any negative comments about any RELEASEE on any social media platform including any in-person, electronic, or online chatrooms or message boards (e.g., Facebook, Linked-In, Craigslist, AOL, etc.).

2.Associate and the Company also agree that, for employment verification purposes, Associate may direct prospective employers to the Company at the contact below and that the Company will confirm with the prospective employer only Associate’s dates of employment and last position held, without substantive commentary on Associate’s performance:

iv.Cooperation: The Company or other RELEASEE(S) may be, or may become, involved in disputes with third parties or regulatory/governmental agencies concerning matters relating to Associate’s employment or former employment or current or former areas of responsibility at the Company, including its parent company or subsidiaries. In such event, Associate agrees to promptly and diligently cooperate with the Company in any manner reasonably requested or directed by the Company, including without limitation: (i) consulting with the Company regarding any of Associate’s job duties and activities; and (ii) cooperating with the Company in connection with any current or future investigation, litigation, audit, or other legal matter, including but not limited to meeting with and fully answering the questions of the Company or its attorneys, representatives, or agents, and

truthfully testifying and preparing to testify at any deposition, trial, or other proceeding without subpoena. The

Company shall endeavor to schedule such assistance so that it does not unreasonably interfere with Associate’s prior business or personal commitments and Associate shall be reimbursed for reasonable out of pocket expenses associated with such cooperation, but Associate will not be reimbursed for Associate’s time.

1.Associate agrees that with respect to confidentiality, as of the date of this Agreement, Associate has not disclosed and will not disclose to or cause to be disclosed to, directly or indirectly, any person including, but not limited to, members of the general public and representatives of the media, the existence of or terms of this Agreement. Associate and the Company agree that confidentiality of this Agreement is mutually beneficial and Associate specifically prefers to keep this Agreement confidential.

2.As an exception to this provision, but subject to the terms of Paragraph 10 of this Agreement, it is understood that Associate may disclose information concerning the amount of the Separation Payment to Associate’s counsel, tax preparer, and to members of Associate’s immediate family; provided, however, that any and all such individuals are alerted to and agree to be bound by this restriction.

3.This Agreement shall not be filed with any court or agency, unless necessary to enforce either of their terms, and shall remain forever confidential as described in Paragraph 10 of this Agreement. Associate and the Company agree that this Agreement may be used only as evidence in a subsequent proceeding in which Associate or the Company and/or RELEASEE(S) allege a breach of this Agreement. Should any party file a claim or action to enforce the terms of this Agreement, such party shall seek the full protection of the applicable court or other forum to provide for and protect the confidentiality of this Agreement.

5.Should Associate be contacted by any person or entity seeking information or testimony in connection with Associate’s or any other individual’s assignment, work, duties, activities or employment at the Company (including knowledge that Associate came into possession of by virtue of or in connection with Associate’s work, duties activities or employment at the Company), Associate shall, prior to providing that information or testimony, to the extent lawfully permitted, advise the

1.Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or restrict Associate from: (i) providing information to or otherwise assisting in, an investigation by Congress, the EEOC, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or any other Canadian (federal or provincial) or U.S. federal regulatory or law enforcement agency or self-regulatory organization (“SRO”); or (ii) testifying, participating, or assisting in a proceeding relating to an alleged violation of any Canadian (federal or provincial) or U.S. federal law relating to fraud or any rule or regulation of the SEC or any SRO.

2.Associate understands and agrees that should Associate (or Associate’s attorneys, tax preparer or any members of Associate’s immediate family) violate the confidentiality requirements set forth in Paragraph 10, Associate shall be deemed to have materially breached this Agreement, and Associate shall be responsible for liquidated damages in the amount of all monies paid by the Company pursuant to Paragraph 1 and the Company’s costs and expenses including, without limitation, the Company’s attorneys’ fees, in bringing an action to recover damages or to seek injunctive relief. Associate further understands and agrees that the monetary relief referred to herein shall not be sufficient or adequate to address damages occasioned by such breach and shall not be a bar to the Company’s pursuit of any other relief including, but not limited to, injunctive and equitable relief.
