John Bean Technologies Executive Severance Pay Plan (amended and restated effective May 15, 2020)

1.1    Purpose of the Plan. The John Bean Technologies Corporation Executive Severance Pay Plan (the “Plan”), as set forth herein, is sponsored by John Bean Technologies Corporation (“Sponsor”) and is intended to ease financial hardships which may be experienced by the CEO or Employees of Sponsor whose employment is terminated involuntarily other than as a result of a Change in Control or pursuant to Section 2.5 and who are not otherwise entitled to severance pursuant to an agreement by and between Sponsor and the Employee. The Plan is not intended to be an “employee pension benefit plan” or “pension plan” as those terms are defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA. Rather, the Plan is intended to constitute the type of arrangement identified as a “severance pay arrangement” within the meaning of Section 3(2)(B)(i) of ERISA, as further elaborated by regulations promulgated by the Secretary of Labor at Title 29, Code of Federal Regulations, § 2510.3-2(b), which is subject to ERISA. No Employee shall have a vested right to such Benefits. The Benefits paid by the Plan are not intended to constitute deferred compensation and as such, it is intended that the Plan be exempt from Code Section 409A. It is further intended that any benefit paid under the Plan be excluded from the benefit-generating or contribution-generating base of any tax-qualified or nonqualified deferred compensation plan or arrangement sponsored or maintained by Sponsor, unless the documents setting forth such plan or arrangement specifically state otherwise.

1.2    Term of the Plan. The Plan shall be effective, as amended and restated, May 15, 2020, and will continue until Sponsor, acting in its sole discretion, elects to amend, modify, or terminate the Plan.

Sponsor reserves the right, in its discretion, to cover any additional positions or individuals under the Plan, under whatever terms and conditions that Sponsor shall elect.

3.2    General Benefits Award Requirement. A Terminated Employee shall be eligible to receive a Benefit under the Plan only upon an involuntary termination employment by Sponsor as provided in Section 2.7, other than as a result of a Change in Control. For purposes herein, a Change in Control shall have such meaning as is set forth in the Executive Severance Agreement executed by and between Employee and Sponsor.

3.3    Execution of a Separation Agreement. In order to be eligible to receive the Benefit under the Plan, the Participant must execute a Separation Agreement in such form and containing such terms as shall be required by the Plan Administrator from time to time, in its sole and absolute discretion, which terms shall include a waiver and release of claims and non-disclosure, non-solicitation and non-competition provisions.

(b)    Target Bonus. The Terminated Employee shall receive a pro-rated payment of the Terminated Employee’s applicable annual Target Bonus (at target level) for the calendar year in which the Employee’s Employment Termination Date occurs.

(c)    COBRA Benefits. For each Terminated Employee who, upon such Employee’s Employment Termination Date, is enrolled in Sponsor’s Medical and Dental Insurance plans and, as a result is entitled to elect continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), Sponsor will pay to the Terminated Employee an amount equal to the Sponsor’s portion of the monthly premium for medical and dental coverage provided to the Terminated Employee as of his or her Employment Termination Date, multiplied by fifteen (15), which the Terminated Employee may, but is not required to, use to pay for any elected COBRA coverage or other health care coverage.

(d)    Vacation Pay. The Terminated Employee shall receive a lump sum payment of the Terminated Employee’s earned and accrued, but unused vacation.

(e)    Outplacement Assistance. Sponsor shall reimburse the Terminated Employee for the reasonable cost of outplacement assistance obtained by the Terminated Employee within the twelve (12) month period immediately following the Employee’s Employment Termination Date; provided the maximum amount of outplacement assistance to be reimbursed cannot exceed $50,000; provided further, in order to be eligible to receive reimbursement, the Terminated Employee must submit the invoice for such assistance received within ninety (90) days following the date the Terminated Employee incurs such costs.

Sponsor shall pay to the Terminated Employee a single lump sum payment of $20,000 LESS any amounts that Sponsor has previously reimbursed the Terminated Employee for financial planning/tax preparation assistance expenses in the calendar year in which the termination of employment occurs. The Terminated Employee may use this payment for financial planning/tax preparation assistance.

(g)    Tax Treatment. Terminated Employees shall pay (and Sponsor shall be permitted to withhold) any and all federal, state and local taxes, if any, that are required by law to be paid with respect to the Benefits received.

4.2    Reductions. The Benefit payable hereunder shall be reduced by any and all payments required to be made by Sponsor under federal, state and local law.

4.3    Effect on At-Will Employment Relationship and on Other Benefits. Neither the Plan, nor any of its provisions, alters the at-will employment relationship between Employee and Sponsor. In addition, there shall not be drawn from the continued provision by Sponsor of any Benefit hereunder any implication of continued employment or of any continued right to accrue vacation days, paid holidays, paid sick days or other similar benefits normally associated with employment for any part of the period during or in respect of which a Benefit is payable under the Plan.

4.4    Benefits as Consideration for Waivers, Covenants and Releases. The Benefit provided hereunder, where applicable, shall constitute consideration for the release that a Terminated Employee is required to provide to Sponsor relating to prior employment by Sponsor. The Benefit provided hereunder, where applicable, shall also constitute consideration for any waiver by the terminated Employee, whether full or partial, and whether absolute or conditional, of any rights, claims, entitlement to relief or damages, or entitlement to seek imposition upon Sponsor of penalties, in connection with any contract, express or implied, or under any statute, regulation, rule, order, or similar promulgation by a governmental or quasi-governmental entity. In addition, the Benefit provided hereunder, where applicable, shall constitute consideration for any covenants or agreements contained in the Separation Agreement executed by the Terminated Employee in connection with this Plan.

5.1    Method of Payment. Except as otherwise provided in Article 4, a Participant’s Benefits shall be paid in the form of a single lump sum payment as soon as practicable after both (a) the Participant’s Employment Termination Date and (b) the date the Separation Agreement referenced in Section 3.3 becomes effective (as described below), but in no event beyond thirty (30) days from such date; provided, if any such Benefits constitute deferred compensation under Code Section 409A and are payable within a period that spans two calendar years, such Benefits shall be paid in the later calendar year; provided further that, if the Employee is deemed on the Employee’s Employment Termination Date to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code, any such Benefits that constitute deferred compensation under Code Section 409A and would otherwise be payable prior to the earlier of (i) the 6-month anniversary of the Employee’s Employment Termination Date and (ii) the date of the Employee’s death (the “Delay Period”) shall instead be paid in a lump sum immediately upon (and not before) the expiration of the Delay Period. For purposes herein, a Participant’s Separation Agreement shall not become effective unless and until the Participant timely executes the Separation Agreement on

or before the date set forth in such agreement and does not subsequently timely revoke the Separation Agreement under applicable law.

5.2    Cessation of Benefit Payments. A Participant shall cease to participate in the Plan, and all Benefit payments shall cease, upon the occurrence of the earliest of:

(a)    Completion of the payment to the Participant of the entitled Benefit under Section 4.1;

(b)    Termination by the Plan Administrator of the Terminated Employee’s right to be a Participant upon discovery of the occurrence of a Disqualifying Event within the meaning of Section 2.5, whether or not such discovery occurs before the Employment Termination Date; or

(c)    The violation by the Terminated Employee of any of the provisions of this Plan, of provisions contained in the Separation Agreement executed by the Terminated Employee, including, but not limited to, obligations with respect to trade secrets and confidential information, and covenants not to solicit Sponsor employees, clients and prospective clients and covenants not to perform same for clients and prospective clients.

Sponsor shall make such payments as are certified to it by the Plan Administrator to be due to Participants.

The Plan Administrator shall have the full discretionary power and authority to construe, interpret and administer the Plan, to make Benefit eligibility determinations, to correct deficiencies in the Plan, and to supply omissions.

The Plan Administrator shall prepare and shall file as required by law or regulation all reports, forms, documents and other items required by ERISA, the Code, and every other relevant statute, each as amended, and all regulations thereunder (except that Sponsor, as payor of the Benefits, shall prepare and distribute to the proper
