Separation Agreement, dated as of February 6, 2023, between the Company and David J. Karch

This Separation Agreement and General Release (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into this 6th day of February, 2023 by and between The Hain Celestial Group, Inc. (“Hain” or the “Company”) and David J. Karch (“Employee”).

WHEREAS, Hain and Employee are parties to an Amended and Restated Letter of Employment dated March 18, 2021 (the “Letter of Employment”); and

WHEREAS, Hain and Employee wish to amicably terminate Employee’s employment with Hain;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants set forth therein, Hain and Employee agree as follows:

1.Termination of Employment

Employee’s last day of employment with Hain is February 6, 2023 (the “Termination Date”).

2.Severance Payments by Hain

As consideration for signing this Agreement and Employee’s complete compliance therewith, Hain shall provide Employee with cash severance in the aggregate amount of $990,675 (equal to Employee’s annual base salary plus Employee’s target annual bonus as of the Termination Date), less applicable withholdings and deductions, payable over a period of 12 months starting from the Effective Date (as defined below), payable in biweekly installments in accordance with the general payroll practices of the Company. This severance is in accordance with the severance obligation provided in Paragraph 5 of the Letter of Employment in the event of a termination by the Company without Cause.

3.Treatment of Outstanding Equity Awards

All outstanding equity awards held by Employee shall be treated in accordance with their terms upon a termination by the Company without cause. Accordingly, (1) a prorated portion of the 52,109 special recognition restricted share units (“RSUs”) granted to Employee on November 18, 2021 will vest on the Termination Date in accordance with the terms of that award, with 30,027 RSUs becoming vested, such number being based on the number of days Employee spent on the active payroll on and following November 18, 2021 divided by the total number of days in the period beginning on November 18, 2021 and ending on December 31, 2023; and (2) all other unvested RSUs, unvested performance share units (“PSUs”) and any other unvested equity awards held by Employee will be forfeited in their entirety as of the Termination Date, which includes: (A) 7,356 RSUs granted on November 18, 2021 (in an original award amount of 11,035 RSUs, of which 3,679 RSUs vested on November 18, 2022), (B) 7,393 PSUs granted on November 18, 2021, (C) 3,642 PSUs granted on November 18, 2021, (D) 24,052 RSUs granted on September 8, 2022, (E) 16,115 PSUs granted on September 8, 2022 and (F) 7,937 PSUs granted on September 8, 2022.

4.Benefits

Hain agrees to continue Employee’s medical, dental and vision coverage through February 28, 2023, in accordance with Hain’s standard policy for U.S. employees. Thereafter, Employee will be eligible to elect to continue medical, dental and vision plan coverage pursuant to the notice sent to Employee by the Company’s insurance provider in accordance with the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act ("COBRA"). If Employee properly and timely elects medical, dental, and/or vision coverage pursuant to COBRA as coverage existed as of the Termination Date, Hain agrees to pay the cost of the premium for such elected coverage (subject to applicable taxes) for a period of 12 months, beginning on March 1, 2023 and ending February 29, 2024, provided Employee remains eligible for COBRA coverage continuation. Thereafter, Employee shall be entitled to elect to continue such COBRA coverage for the remainder of the COBRA period, at Employee’s own expense, in accordance with applicable law. In the event Employee becomes eligible for coverage under another employer’s plan or elects participation in another group medical and dental plan, Hain’s obligation to continue paying premiums under this Section shall cease immediately. Employee shall notify Hain immediately of Employee’s eligibility for coverage under another employer’s plan so that Hain may cease making COBRA payments on Employee’s behalf.

Employee's participation in all other benefits and incidents of employment (including, but not limited to, the accrual of vacation and paid time off, Life Insurance, AD&D, Long Term Disability, 401(k), and the vesting of equity grants as applicable) cease on the Termination Date.

5.No Further Payment of Salary, Bonuses or Other Benefits or Compensation

Except with respect to (A) the severance payments provided by Section 2 hereof, (B) the vesting of 30,066 RSUs as described in Section 3 hereof, (D) the benefits provided by Section 4 hereof and (E) accrued vacation through the Termination Date (which accrued and unused vacation will be paid to Employee in accordance with the Company’s standard policy and practices), Employee acknowledges and represents that, as of the date Employee signed this Agreement, Hain has paid all salary, wages, bonuses, equity, housing allowances, relocation costs, interest, severance, stock, fees, commissions, and any and all other benefits and compensation due to Employee.

6.Indemnification

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, including any release by Employee herein, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and the provisions of the existing Hain Certificate of Incorporation, Hain shall indemnify and hold harmless Employee from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, fines, taxes and interest and penalties thereon (other than taxes based on fees or other compensation received by Employee), claims, demands, actions, suits, proceedings (whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or otherwise), costs, expenses and disbursements (including legal and accounting fees and expenses, costs of investigation and sums paid in settlement) of any kind or nature whatsoever (collectively, “Claims and Expenses”) which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted at any time against Employee in any way related to Employee’s employment by Hain, or the management or administration of Hain, or in connection with the business or affairs of Hain or the activities of Employee on behalf of the Company; provided that Employee shall not be entitled to indemnification hereunder for Claims and Expenses that are (i) incurred by Employee as plaintiff in any action, suit or proceeding brought against the Company or (ii) incurred by Employee as a defendant in any action, suit or proceeding brought against Employee by a third

party and found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment not subject to further appeal to be attributable to Employee’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

This release is not intended to bar claims for workers’ compensation benefits or unemployment insurance benefits, but Employee acknowledges that Employee is not aware of any work-related condition or injury. Moreover, Employee and Hain acknowledge that this Agreement does not limit either party’s right, where applicable, to file or participate in an investigation, hearing, whistleblower proceeding, or other federal, state or local governmental agency (“Governmental Agency”) proceeding, but Employee waives the right to any personal remedy, to the maximum extent permitted by law, except that this Agreement does not limit Employee’s right to receive an award for information provided to any Governmental Agency.

8.Acknowledgement of Waiver of Claims Under ADEA

Employee acknowledges that Employee is waiving and releasing any rights Employee may have under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”) and that this waiver and release is knowing and voluntary.

law. However, if the release of ADEA claims or any other claim is set aside or limited, all monies paid hereunder shall be set-off against any relief or recovery.

9.No Admission of Liability

Neither this Agreement, nor anything contained herein, shall be construed as an admission by the Company that it has in any respect violated or abridged any Federal, State, or local law or any right or obligation that it may owe or may have owed to Employee. No final findings or final judgments have been made and Employee does not purport and will not claim to be a prevailing party, to any degree or extent, nor will this Agreement or its terms be admissible in any proceeding other than in a proceeding for breach of the terms contained herein.

10.Cooperation by Employee

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Employee shall assist Hain in the presentation or prosecution of any disputes, differences, grievances, claims, charges, or complaints by any third party against Hain or any of the Releasees without additional compensation, provided, however that Hain will reimburse Employee for reasonable out-of-pocket and travel-related expenses incurred with providing such assistance. Employee and Hain acknowledge this Section does not limit the right, where applicable, to file or participate in an investigative proceeding of any Governmental Agency without requiring notice to Hain or any of the Releasees; Employee nevertheless understands that because of the waiver and general release Employee freely provides by signing this Agreement, Employee cannot obtain any monetary relief or recovery in any such proceeding to the extent permitted by law, except that this Agreement does not limit Employee’s right to receive an award for information provided to any Governmental Agency, as set forth in Section 7.

11.Confidential and Proprietary Information of Hain

In accordance with the Confidentiality, Non-Interference, and Invention Assignment Agreements in existence between the Employee and the Company (the “Restrictive Covenant Agreements”), Employee understands and agrees that all books, records, documents and information, whether written or not, pertaining to Hain's business activities, are the confidential and proprietary property of Hain (hereinafter referred to as "trade secrets and confidential and proprietary information") and must be returned in full and without retention of copies. Employee warrants, covenants, and agrees that Employee will not disclose any of Hain's trade secrets and confidential and proprietary information to any person or entity not employed, owned by, or otherwise affiliated with Hain or use such information for Employee’s own benefit or the benefit of any person or entity not employed, owned by, or otherwise affiliated with Hain. Employee further agrees that Employee shall not be entitled to copies, in any form, of such trade secrets and confidential and proprietary information and Employee shall immediately return to Hain any copies of such information currently in Employee’s possession or control.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement does not limit or interfere with Employee’s right, without notice to or authorization of the Company, to communicate and cooperate in good faith with any self-regulatory organization or U.S. federal, state, or local governmental or law enforcement branch, agency, commission, or entity (collectively, a “Government Entity”) for the purpose of (i) reporting a possible violation of any U.S. federal, state, or local law or regulation, (ii) participating in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted or

managed by any Government Entity, including by providing documents or other information, or (iii) filing a charge or complaint with a Government Entity, provided that in each case, such communications, participation, and disclosures are consistent with applicable law. Additionally, Employee shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, or to an attorney, solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (ii) in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. If Employee files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law, Employee may disclose the trade secret to Employee’s attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if Employee files any document containing the trade secret under seal; and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.

Employee also agrees not to publish, discuss or comment on any remarks related to Hain or any of the other Releasees in any forum, including the internet, any web site or blog. Further, Employee agrees to refrain from any tortious interference with Hain’s or the Releasees’ contracts and relationships.

The parties hereto agree that this Agreement may not be modified, altered or changed, except by a written agreement signed by the parties hereto. This Agreement represents the entire agreement and understanding between Hain and Employee concerning the subject matter of this Agreement and Employee's relationship with Hain, and supersedes and replaces any and all prior agreements and understandings between the parties concerning the subject matter of this Agreement and Employee's relationship with Hain, provided that as set forth in Section 12 above, the provisions of the Restrictive Covenant Agreements that are designed to survive the termination of Employee’s employment, including without limitation the Post-Employment Restrictive Covenants, shall survive in full force and effect for the applicable periods contained therein. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, the court rendering that finding shall interpret or modify each such clause to be enforceable to fulfill the parties’ stated intent. If that cannot be done, such clause(s) shall be void and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. If any term or provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to Employee or circumstance shall to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, such provision will be modified, rewritten or interpreted by the parties to include as much of its nature and scope as will render it enforceable. Otherwise, Hain shall be entitled to the return of the entire consideration under this Agreement.

17.Breach of Agreement or Post-Employment Restrictive Covenants

Employee acknowledges and agrees that should Employee breach this Agreement or the Post-Employment Restrictive Covenants, the Company shall be entitled immediately to recover 95% of the severance payments, other payments and benefits set forth in Section 2 and Section 4 already provided and to cease any outstanding consideration without impacting Employee’s release of claims and other obligations hereunder, without limitation to any other remedies, including equitable remedies. In addition, Hain shall be entitled to recover its costs and fees, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in the successful enforcement of any such relief.

18.Resolution of Disputes/Waiver of Jury Trial

Employee is not affected or impaired in Employee’s ability voluntarily and knowingly to consider and to execute this Agreement, whether by illness, use of alcohol, drugs or other substances or conditions. Employee is not a party to any bankruptcy, lien, assignment, creditor-debtor or other proceeding which would impair the right to settle all claims against Hain or to waive all claims that Employee may have against Released Parties.

22.Voluntary Execution

Employee acknowledges that Employee has carefully read this Agreement and understands all of its terms including the general and final release of claims set forth above and covenant not to sue.
