Brandon (the Executive) and Dominos Pizza, Inc. (the Company), Dominos, Inc.

Recitals
WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend certain obligations contained in the Employment Agreement as set forth herein;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual agreements set forth herein, and in the Agreement, the parties hereto agree as follows.
Addendum
1. The defined terms set forth in the Agreement and Recitals above are incorporated by reference in the Addendum.
2. A new Sub-Section 4.5.3 is added to the Agreement after Sub-Section 4.5.2 and shall read as follows:
Notwithstanding Section 4.5.2 above, effective June 15, 2018, the Companys obligation to provide the Health Benefit shall terminate and the Company shall instead provide to the Executive during his lifetime and to the Executives spouse during her lifetime an annual payment in an amount to be determined by the Company and based on the methodology described in Appendix A (each such annual payment, a Payment). For the avoidance of doubt, the Executives spouse will be entitled to receive a Payment only for so long as she is married to the Executive; provided, however, in the event that the Executive predeceases his spouse while they are married to each other, his spouse shall continue to receive a Payment for the remainder of her life. The first Payment shall be made on July 1, 2018 and thereafter, each Payment shall be made no later than each February 1. On a basis no less frequently than annually, the Company shall fund the Trust in an amount as is sufficient, in the Companys discretion, to make the Payment contemplated by this Section 4.5.3 for the year following the year in which the Company makes such contribution to the trust. In the event that Executive or his spouse becomes eligible for health care coverage through another employer, the Payment for the Executive or his spouse, or both, as
1
the case may be, shall cease until such time as the Executive or his spouse, or both, as the case may be, is no longer eligible for such other coverage. In addition to the Payments provided to the Executive and to the Executives spouse, for so long as Executive or his spouse receives a Payment hereunder, the Company shall make available to the Executive and the Executives spouse a Company resource to assist the Executive and the Executives spouse in reviewing, evaluating and securing health care coverage. Any benefit associated with the provision of such resource shall be taxed to the Executive or the Executives spouse, as applicable, on an annual basis.
3. A new Appendix A is hereby inserted into the agreement after the signature page and shall read as follows:
The Payment described in Section 4.5.3 of the Employment Agreement will be based on the annual cost of (a) Medicare supplemental coverage elected by the Executive and (b) individual market coverage (for clarification purposes, this shall include medical insurance coverage, prescription medicine coverage, dental insurance coverage, vision insurance coverage, as well as services to provide administrative conveniences relating to health care coverage, described at times as concierge health care) elected by the spouse, and once she becomes Medicare-eligible, the cost of her Medicare supplemental coverage; provided, that in no event shall the amount of the Payment initially exceed $150,000 per year. Such $150,000 Payment limit shall be increased automatically by three percent (3%) for every five (5) years that the Payment is in effect for the Executive and/or the Executives Spouse. No later than each October 15, the Executive and/or his spouse shall notify the Company of the coverage they have elected for the following year or request the assistance of the Company in helping them choose such coverage. The Payment to be made by the Company by the following February 1 will be equal to the annual cost of such coverage (subject to the proviso above). Receipt of the Payment is not conditioned on the Executive and his spouse agreeing to use the Payment to purchase health insurance or certifying or substantiating that they have done so. The amount of the Payment for any year shall not affect the amount of the Payment for a subsequent year, and the right to payment of the Payment shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for any other benefit.
4. Any provisions in the Agreement not revised herein remain in full force and effect.
