Agreement of Lease between Erie Insurance Exchange and Erie Indemnity Company for the Erie Insurance Home Office Campus, dated July 1, 2021

This is an Agreement of Lease (the "Lease") dated July 1, 2021 between ERIE INSURANCE EXCHANGE ("Tenant"), a reciprocal insurance exchange organized under the laws of Pennsylvania with principal offices and place of business at 100 Erie Insurance Place, Erie, PA 16530, acting by and through its attorney-in-fact, ERIE INDEMNITY COMPANY; and ERIE INDEMNITY COMPANY ("Landlord"), a Pennsylvania business corporation, with its principal offices and place of business also at 100 Erie Insurance Place, Erie, PA 16530.

The Erie Insurance Home Office Campus (collectively, the "Property") is used or occupied by Landlord, for itself or for the benefit of the Tenant, and Erie Family Life Insurance Company ("EFL"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Tenant. "Leased Premises" means those portions of the Property actually under use or occupancy by Tenant, for itself and EFL as determined monthly. Appendix A sets forth the buildings and their respective size for Base Rent and other calculation purposes ("Buildings"), and Appendix B sets forth parking garages and parking lots ("Parking") that constitute the Property of which the Leased Premises is a part.

The parties have determined to: (a) memorialize the basis for calculating, allocating, and providing for the payment of “Base Rent”, "Operating Expenses", and “Leasehold Improvements”; and (b) comply with the rules and procedural requirements for insurance holding company systems as set forth in Pennsylvania Code Title 31, "Insurance," Chapter 25.

Therefore, intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows:

1.PREMISES. Landlord leases to Tenant, and Tenant leases from Landlord, the Leased Premises.

2.SUPPLEMENTS OR AMENDMENTS. The parties agree to supplement this Lease as new or additional properties are either acquired or constructed and made subject to, or are removed from the terms of this Lease (e.g., by consent of the parties, condemnation or casualty loss). Supplement(s) to the Lease will be made as frequently as circumstances and applicable law may require and on terms mutually agreeable to the Landlord and Tenant. Amendments to this Lease may be made at any time the parties so agree.

C.ALLOCATION. Base Rent charged to Tenant and EFL shall be calculated monthly based on the square footage occupied by or for the benefit of Tenant and EFL, including their share of the square footage occupied by service departments and their share of common space, in accordance with the responsibilities of the parties as set forth by the Subscribers’ Agreement (Appendix C) and the Erie Family Life Insurance Company Services Agreement ("EFL Services Agreement") (Appendix D).

    A.    PROPERTY INSURANCE. At all times during the Lease Term, Landlord shall cause the Leased Premises to be fully and adequately insured with a customary policy of fire and extended coverage insurance (including flood insurance if and to the extent that the Leased Premises or any portion thereof is in a designated flood plain, vandalism, malicious mischief and special extended perils or all-risk) in an amount not less than the full replacement cost of the Leased Premises. Such insurance policy shall name Landlord as insured and Tenant and EFL as additional insureds, as their interests may appear, with loss payable to Landlord. Landlord shall furnish tenant and EFL with reasonable evidence that Tenant and EFL have effected coverage for the replacement cost of the Leased Premises.

        B.    COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY INSURANCE.  At all times during the Lease Term, Landlord shall maintain in full force and effect a Commercial General Liability insurance policy in the amount of $5,000,000 covering bodily injury and property damage occurring as a result of the negligence of the Landlord, Tenant or EFL.  Such insurance policy shall name the Tenant (and Tenant’s property manager, if any) as additional insured(s).

C.CERTIFICATES. Landlord shall, upon request, provide Tenant and EFL with adequate evidence of the continued existence of applicable insurance coverage by certificate(s) of insurance.

9.    DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION OR CONDEMNATION.

        A.    TOTAL LOSS. If the Leased Premises (or portion(s) thereof) are totally taken or destroyed by fire, flood, or other casualty not the fault of Tenant, EFL or any person in or about the Leased Premises with the express or implied consent of Tenant, EFL or if the Leased Premises should be so damaged by such a cause that rebuilding or repairs cannot be completed within 180 working days from the date of commencement of the rebuilding or repairs, this Lease shall terminate as to such portions, and Base Rent and other amounts payable hereunder shall be abated for the portion(s) for the remaining term, unless the parties otherwise agree.

        B.    PARTIAL LOSS. If the Leased Premises (or portion(s) thereof) are partially taken or damaged by fire, flood, or other casualty not the fault of Tenant, EFL or any person in or about the Leased Premises with the express or implied consent of Tenant or EFL but to the extent that rebuilding or repairs can reasonably be completed in 180 working days or less from the date of the commencement of the rebuilding or repairs, this Lease shall not be terminated except as provided in Subparagraphs (i) and (ii).

i.If the partial loss of the portion(s) of the Leased Premises occurs prior to the final six months of the Lease term, Landlord shall, at its sole cost and risk, proceed immediately to rebuild or repair the damaged buildings and improvements to substantially the condition in which they existed prior to such damage. If the portion(s) of the Leased Premises are untenantable in whole or in part following such loss, the Base Rent and other amounts payable during the period in which they are untenantable shall be adjusted equitably. In the event that Landlord should fail to complete such

rebuilding or repairs or provide reasonable substitute accommodations, Tenant and EFL may terminate this Lease by written notification to Landlord. On such notification, all rights and obligations under this Lease shall cease.

ii.If partial taking or destruction of the portion(s) of the Leased Premises occurs in the final six months of any leased term, Landlord need not rebuild or repair the Leased Premises. If Landlord elects not to rebuild or repair the Leased Premises and the Leased Premises are untenantable in whole or in part following such damage, Tenant and EFL may elect to terminate the Lease or to continue the Lease with the Base Rent and other amounts payable for the remainder of the Lease period adjusted equitably.

        C.    LANDLORD'S DAMAGES. In the event of any condemnation or taking, whether whole or partial, the Tenant and EFL shall not be entitled to any part of the award, except as provided below. Tenant and EFL hereby expressly waives any right or claim to any part of such amount and assigns to Landlord any such right or claim to which Tenant and EFL might become entitled, except as provided below.

D.TENANT'S DAMAGES. Although all damages in the event of any condemnation or loss are to belong to the Landlord, Tenant and EFL shall have the right, to the extent that it shall not diminish the Landlord's award, to claim and recover from the condemning authority, such compensation as may be separately awarded or recoverable by Tenant and EFL under the Eminent Domain Code in Tenant's and EFL’s own right for or on account of, and limited solely to, any cost to which Tenant and EFL might incur in removing Tenant's furniture, fixtures, leasehold improvements, and equipment.

10.    INDEMNITY. Tenant and EFL agrees to indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, damages, costs, and expenses, including all attorneys' fees and associated costs, arising from the conduct or management of Tenant's and EFL’s business on the Leased Premises, Tenant's and EFL’s use of the Leased Premises, Tenant's and EFL’s presence in the Building(s), the Leased Premises, or on the Property, or from any breach on the part of Tenant or EFL of any conditions of this Lease, or from any act or negligence or willful misconduct of Tenant or EFL, its officers, agents, contractors, employees, sublessees, or invitees in or about the Leased Premises, any Building, or the Property, except to the extent caused by Landlord’s or its officers’, agents’, contractors’, employees’, sublessees’, or invitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct. In case of any action or proceeding brought against Landlord by reason of any such claim, Tenant and EFL agrees to defend the action or proceeding, using counsel acceptable to Landlord.

11.    RIGHT OF ENTRY. Upon prior notice, Landlord and persons authorized by Landlord shall have the right to enter the Leased Premises at all reasonable times to inspect, perform maintenance, do repairs and show the Leased Premises to prospective tenants and purchasers.

12.    SUBLETTING AND ASSIGNMENTS. Landlord gives consent to the Tenant to sublease to EFL. Tenant shall not assign this Lease or enter into any other sublease agreement

without the prior written consent of Landlord which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Any attempted assignment or sublease by Tenant without the prior written consent of Landlord is a violation of this Lease and shall be void. If Landlord shall consent to an assignment or sublease, any consent shall not be considered to be a consent to any other assignment or sublease.

13.    SUBORDINATION. This Lease is subordinate to any and all mortgages and security interests that are presently on the Property, or that in the future may be on the property of which the Leased Premises or any portion of it is a part. Landlord and Tenant agree to execute and deliver reasonable estoppel certificates; subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreements; or such other agreements as the other party may reasonably request.

14.    REMEDIES. If Tenant fails to pay Base Rent or any other charges when due for any reason, or if Tenant or EFL violates any other terms, conditions, rules or regulations in this Lease, Landlord may take any or all of the following actions, after giving Tenant and/or EFL fifteen (15) days prior written notice of default which remains uncured:

Landlord may seek one or more than one remedy contained in this Lease. Landlord's taking of any action against Tenant and/or EFL shall not prevent Landlord from taking other and additional actions against Tenant and/or EFL.

Landlord's failure to enforce any term, condition, rule or regulation shall not prevent Landlord from enforcing the term, condition, rule or regulation at a later time.

(A)This Lease: (i) contains the entire agreement between the parties and no promise, representation, warranty, covenant, agreement, or understanding not specifically set forth in this Lease shall be binding upon either party; (ii) may not be amended, modified, or supplemented in any manner (including adding additional properties to the Leased Premises) except in writing signed by the parties; (iii) shall be construed and governed under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania; (iv) shall not be construed more stringently in favor of one party against the other regardless of which party has prepared it; (v) shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties and their respective successors, and permitted assigns; (vi) shall not be binding until this Lease shall be executed and delivered by the parties, to each other; and (vii) may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but which all together constitute the same instrument.

(B)Any person executing this Lease represents and warrants that such person is authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on behalf of the entity.

(E)In the event of any conflict between this Lease and an exhibit, the exhibit shall control.

(F)Headings are for convenience only and are not a part of this Lease.

Such alterations and improvements will become Landlord's property at the end of the Lease. All such work must be done in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and with best practices.

(L)The terms and provisions of this Lease shall remain confidential between the parties, except for the recording of any memorandum of lease or an SNDA, or to the extent any disclosure is otherwise required by law (e.g., filing with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Insurance Department).

(N)Tenant and EFL, upon paying the Base Rent herein provided for and observing and keeping all covenants and conditions of this Lease, shall quietly have and enjoy the Leased Premises during the term of this Lease without hindrance or molestation by anyone claiming by or through Landlord.

(O)Neither party shall be held responsible for any failures or delays in connection with the performance of their obligations under this Lease where such failures or delays are due to inclement weather, delays due to governmental regulations, acts of God, labor disputes, strikes, or other causes beyond the parties' control. In the event of any such occurrence,

the time for performance or completion of the obligations contained herein shall be extended accordingly.

(P)Neither Party will be liable to the other for special, consequential, incidental, exemplary or punitive damages arising from, in connection with, or related to a breach of this agreement, regardless of whether those damages are claimed under contract, warranty, indemnity, tort or any other theory at law or in equity.

ERIE INSURANCE EXCHANGE (“ERIE”) was organized in 1925 as a Reciprocal or Inter-Insurance Exchange under the Insurance Laws of Pennsylvania. An Exchange is one of four plans of insurance in use today, and it is the only one started in America. Other plans are Stock, Mutual and Lloyds.

An Exchange, such as ERIE, has no stockholders. It is based on the mutual or cooperative principle of protecting its Policyholders, called Subscribers, at the lowest possible cost. Technically, an Exchange is a place at which the Subscribers exchange contracts of insurance with each other. To avoid the need for all Subscribers to be involved in every exchange, a manager, called the Attorney-in-Fact, is appointed by each Subscriber. The Attorney-in-Fact also manages ERIE’s business for the Subscribers. This includes collecting premiums, issuing policies and providing service. At ERIE, the Attorney-in-Fact is ERIE INDEMNITY COMPANY, a Pennsylvania corporation.

The Attorney-in-Fact is appointed through the Subscriber’s Agreement. That Agreement includes a limited power of attorney which authorizes the Attorney-in-Fact to act on behalf of the Subscriber. This authority applies only to the Subscriber’s insurance business at the Exchange. It is limited strictly to the subjects described in that Agreement. An “X-tra Protection” feature in ERIE’s Agreement limits the amount that can be used for the cost of doing business. Stock, Mutual, and Lloyds companies have no such contractual limit on their expenses.

ERIE policies are “non-assessable.” In other words, an ERIE Subscriber is liable for just the policy premiums charged, and is not subject to any other liability under the policy.

An insurance policy applied for at an Exchange cannot become effective without a signed Subscriber’s Agreement. It is required, therefore, that each person applying for insurance at ERIE sign that Agreement.

Thank you for your interest in becoming a Subscriber at ERIE INSURANCE EXCHANGE, a member of the ERIE INSURANCE GROUP.

The Subscriber (“you” or “your”) agrees with the other Subscribers at ERIE INSURANCE EXCHANGE (“ERIE”), a Reciprocal/Inter-Insurance Exchange, and with their Attorney-in-Fact, the Erie Indemnity Company (“we” or “us”), a Pennsylvania corporation with its Home Office in Erie, Pennsylvania, to the following:

1.    You agree to pay your policy premiums and to exchange with other ERIE Subscribers policies providing insurance for any insured loss as stated in those policies.

2.    You appoint us as Attorney-in-Fact with the power to: a) exchange policies with other ERIE Subscribers; b) take any action necessary for the exchange of such policies; c) issue, change, nonrenew or cancel policies; d) obtain reinsurance; e) collect premiums; f) invest and reinvest funds; g) receive notices and proofs of loss; h) appear for, compromise, prosecute, defend, adjust and settle losses and claims under your policies; i) accept service of process on behalf of ERIE as insurer; and j) manage and conduct the business and affairs of ERIE, its affiliates and subsidiaries. This power of attorney is limited to the purposes described in this Agreement.

3.    You agree that as compensation for us: a) becoming and acting as Attorney-in-Fact; b) managing the business and affairs of ERIE; and c) paying general administrative expenses, including sales commissions, salaries and employee benefits, taxes, rent, depreciation, supplies and data processing, we may retain up to 25% of all premiums written or assumed by ERIE. The rest of the premiums will be used for losses, loss adjustment expenses, investment expenses, damages, legal expenses, court costs, taxes, assessments, licenses, fees, and any other governmental fines and charges, establishment of reserves and surplus, and reinsurance, and may be used for dividends and other purposes we decide are to the advantage of Subscribers.

4.    You agree that this Agreement, including the power of attorney, shall have application to all insurance policies for which you apply at ERIE, including changes in any of your coverages.

5.    You agree to sign and deliver to us all papers required to carry out this Agreement.

6.    This Agreement, including the power of attorney, shall not be affected by your subsequent disability or incapacity.

7.    This Agreement is and shall be binding upon you, us, and all executors, administrators, successors and assigns.

As a condition precedent to any right of action hereunder, in the event of any dispute or difference of opinion hereafter arising with respect to this Agreement, it is hereby mutually agreed that such dispute or difference of opinion shall be submitted to arbitration before a panel of three arbitrators, all of whom shall be active or retired disinterested officers of life insurance companies. One arbitrator shall be chosen by Administrator, one shall be chosen by the Company, and the third, an umpire, shall be chosen by the other two arbitrators before they enter upon arbitration. In the event of either party refusing or neglecting to appoint an arbitrator within ninety (90) calendar days after the other party requests it to do so, or if the arbitrators fail to appoint an umpire within sixty (60) calendar days after they have accepted their appointments, such arbitrator or umpire, as the case may be, shall, upon the application of any party, be appointed by the American Arbitration Association and the arbitrators and the umpire shall thereupon proceed.

Each party shall bear the expense of its own arbitrator and shall jointly and equally bear the expenses of the umpire and of the arbitration. Any such arbitration shall take place in Erie, Pennsylvania, or such other place as may be mutually agreed by the parties hereto.

8.1. Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto, their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that neither party shall assign, delegate, transfer or otherwise dispose of any interest, right or obligation arising hereunder without the prior written consent of the other, it being understood that the Administrator shall have full authority to manage all third party contracts entered into by the Company from time to time.

8.2. Independent Contractors. This Agreement is not a contract of employment and nothing contained herein shall be construed to create the relationship of employer and employee between the Company and Administrator. It is the express intent of the parties that Administrator shall be considered an independent contractor to the Company for all purposes.

8.3. Confidential Information. During the course of performance under this Agreement, Administrator and its agents, employees and representatives may obtain or have access to certain confidential information of the Company including, without limitation, names, ages, addresses and other nonpublic personal and financial information of policyholders, claimants and annuitants, the identity and production of the Company’s distribution network and its Agents and Producers, the identity and types of insurance and annuities purchased by insureds and annuitants, the pricing models for insurance policies and annuity contracts, and the underwriting experience of the insureds (collectively, “Confidential Information”). Administrator covenants as follows with respect to such Confidential Information:

8.3.1. Administrator will maintain Confidential Information on a strictly confidential basis and will permit its disclosure to only those agents, employees and representatives of Administrator who require such for purposes of Administrator’s

performance under this Agreement and who have been advised of the terms of this Section 8.3.

8.3.2. Administrator will, and will cause its agents, employees and representatives to (i) keep Confidential Information confidential; (ii) use Confidential Information only as necessary to carry out the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and (iii) not disclose such information to others without the prior written consent of the Company, except as may be required by law. Administrator agrees to advise any of its agents, employees and representatives to whom Confidential Information has been disclosed of the obligation to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information pursuant to this Agreement and shall require such agents, employees and representatives to abide by the confidentiality requirements of this Agreement.

8.3.3. In the event that Administrator or anyone to whom Administrator discloses Confidential Information as permitted by this Agreement becomes legally compelled to disclose any Confidential Information, Administrator will provide the Company with prompt notice so that the Company may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/ or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. Administrator shall use best efforts to cooperate with the Company so that the Company may take legally available steps to resist or narrow any applicable request, subpoena or court order, and to obtain an appropriate protective order or other assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information. In the event that a protective order or other remedy is not obtained or if the Company waives compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, Administrator will disclose only that portion of such Confidential Information as is legally required, and Administrator will exercise best efforts at the Company’s cost to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Confidential Information.

8.3.4. Administrator stipulates, acknowledges and agrees that a breach of its obligations under this Section 8.3 may cause the Company to incur losses which are not readily calculable and/or for which there may be no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, Administrator agrees that in addition to the legal remedies available to the Company, violations of this Section 8.3 shall be subject to equitable remedies, including injunctive relief to restrain or enjoin such violations.

8.4. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania without reference to Pennsylvania’s choice of law rules.

8.5. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future law, and if the rights or obligations of the parties under this Agreement will not be materially and adversely affected thereby, such provision shall be fully severable, and this Agreement will be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Agreement, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and will not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be signed by their authorized representatives as of the date first above written.
