Dear Susan,

We are pleased to confirm the terms of your full-time employment with Crocs, Inc. (the “Company”) effective June 3, 2024 (the “Start Date”), on the following terms (the “Agreement”):

1.Title - Your new position will be EVP, Chief Financial Officer, at our Broomfield, Colorado, office reporting to Andrew Rees. Your position, location, duties, and reporting relationships are subject to change in accordance with operational needs.

In accordance with the Company’s role-based workplace evolution framework, which is used to determine the location/flexibility of each role, your current workplace persona classification is Collaborator. The workplace location, time in office expectations, workspace and equipment / technology needs of this persona are available from the Human Resources Department.

2.Compensation - Your base salary will be an annualized rate of $750,000.00, paid bi-weekly, less applicable withholdings and deductions. You will be eligible for a salary review in early 2025. Your salary is intended to pay for all hours worked during each pay period, regardless of your scheduled or tracked hours.

3.Short-term Incentive Plan - You are eligible to participate in the Company’s Short-Term Incentive Plan (STIP) for the 2024 and beyond STIP plan years. The target discretionary bonus for your position is 100% of your actual earnings for the plan year, which is currently derived from the achievement of certain goals including Company (Enterprise) and individual performance as set forth in the Company’s scorecard. Provided, however, the target discretionary bonus for your position will be based on 100% of your base salary for the 2024 plan year only. The STIP is subject to amendment or change at any time with or without notice.

4.Long-term Incentive Plan - You are eligible to participate in the Company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) for the 2025 and beyond LTIP Plan years. In this plan, your target long-term incentive is 200% of your base salary and will be discretionary based on Company and individual performance as set forth in the Company’s scorecard. The LTIP is subject to amendment or change at any time with or without notice.

5.Sign on Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) - Subject to the approval of the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, on the Start Date the Company will grant $2,000,000.00 in RSUs of the Company’s stock under the 2020 Crocs, Inc. Equity Incentive Plan in accordance with the LTI structure comprised of performance and restricted shares as detailed in your award agreement; provided that you must be employed by Company continuously to

Based on the current tax laws these benefits are considered taxable wages to you by the IRS and they must be included for federal income tax withholding, FICA (Social Security/Medicare), and federal unemployment tax. Please take this into consideration when you obtain your relocation quotes from Relocation Synergy Group. It is recommended to consult your accountant for a clear understanding of your tax obligation and how much of the allowance will be taxed.

In addition, you will be eligible to receive COBRA coverage for the term of the severance and executive outplacement at the EVP Level, all of which are conditioned upon signing the Company’s Separation Agreement and General Release within the thirty (30) day period following such termination or resignation.

2.You will keep full and complete written records of and promptly disclose to the Company all Work Product. You will promptly execute upon the Company’s lawful request any documents or instruments requested by the Company in order to formally convey and transfer to the Company or its designee title to any such Work Product, to confirm the Company or its designee’s title therein, and in order to enable the Company or its designee to evidence, secure, protect, obtain, defend, or enforce any intellectual property rights pertaining to the Work Product. You will perform your obligations under this section without further compensation, except for reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred at the request of the Company. If the Company is unable, due to your unavailability or for any other reason, to secure your signature with respect to any documents in connection with any action described in this section (b), you hereby irrevocably designate and appoint the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as your agent and attorney-in-fact, to act for and on your behalf to execute such documents and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further any application for, or any prosecution, issuance, maintenance, assignment or transfer of, any proprietary rights pertaining or related to any of the Work Product, or to otherwise carry out the purposes of this Agreement, with the same legal force and effect as if originally executed by you. This designation and appointment is deemed coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

3.You represent and covenant that your performance of all the terms of this Agreement and as an employee of the Company does not and will not breach any agreement to keep in confidence proprietary information, or Innovations acquired by you prior to your employment with the Company (or its past, existing, or future affiliates); and, you will not disclose to the Company, or induce the Company to use, any proprietary information or Innovations belonging to any of your previous employers or clients, as applicable. You represent and warrant that you are not a party to any other agreement that will interfere with your full compliance with this Agreement. You will not enter into any agreement, whether written or oral, in conflict with the provisions of this Agreement.

4.To the extent permitted by Section 12(c), you have accurately identified on Exhibit A all Innovations that you developed or created prior to your employment with the Company (or its past or existing affiliates) (collectively “Prior Works”) that may reasonably relate to the current or



future business of the Company. Except as provided herein, you will retain all right, title and interest in and to such Prior Works. You will promptly disclose to the Company any modifications or improvements to any Prior Works that fall within the definition of Work Product (and you assign rights thereto to the Company pursuant to Section 12(a)).

5.Any Innovations or Confidential Information conceived, reduced to practice, created, developed, or made by you, alone or with others, within three (3) months after termination of your employment, may have been conceived, reduced to practice, created, developed, or made, as applicable, while employed by the Company. Accordingly, such Innovations and Confidential Information will be presumed to have been conceived, reduced to practice, created, developed, or made, as applicable, during or as a result of your employment with the Company and are hereby assigned to the Company unless and until you have established the contrary by written evidence satisfying the clear and convincing standard of proof. You hereby consent to the Company notifying any new employer or consulting client of your obligations under this Agreement.

The Company agrees to notify you in writing whether it believes such material contains any Confidential Information or Work Product and you agree to make such deletions and revisions as are reasonably requested by the Company to protect its Confidential Information or Work Product.

16. Remedies - Since a material purpose of this Agreement is to protect the Company’s investment in you and to secure the benefits of your background and general experience in the industry, the parties hereto agree and acknowledge that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach of this Agreement and that any such breach may cause the Company irreparable harm. Therefore, in the event of a breach by you of any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Company or its successors and assigns shall be entitled to seek specific performance and/or injunctive relief or other relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions of this Agreement.

If any provision (or any part thereof) is unenforceable under or prohibited by any present or future law, then such provision (or part thereof) will be amended, and is hereby amended, so as to be in compliance with such law while preserving, to the maximum extent possible, the intent of the original provision. Any provision (or part thereof) that cannot be so amended will be severed from this Agreement and all the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain unimpaired. This Agreement is for your benefit and the benefit of the Company, its successors, assigns, parent corporations, subsidiaries, affiliates, and purchasers, and will be binding upon your heirs, executors, administrators and other legal representatives. The Company may freely assign this Agreement without your consent. The words “include,” “includes,” and “including” will be deemed to be followed by “without limitation.” The words “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited.
