WHEREAS, it has been determined under the Plan that it would be in the best interests of the Company to grant the Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) provided herein to the Participant.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto hereby mutually covenant and agree as follows:

1. Incorporation By Reference; Plan Document Receipt. This Agreement is subject in all respects to the terms and provisions of the Plan (including, without limitation, any amendments thereto adopted at any time and from time to time unless such amendments are expressly intended not to apply to the Award provided hereunder), all of which terms and provisions are made a part of and incorporated in this Agreement as if they were each expressly set forth herein. Any capitalized term not defined in this Agreement will have the same meaning as is ascribed thereto in the Plan. The Participant hereby acknowledges receipt of a true copy of the Plan and that the Participant has read the Plan carefully and fully understands its content. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan will control.

2. Grant of Restricted Stock Unit Award. The Company hereby grants to the Participant, as of the Grant Date specified above, the number of RSUs specified above. Except as otherwise provided by the Plan, the Participant agrees and understands that nothing contained in this Agreement provides, or is intended to provide, the Participant with any protection against potential future dilution of the Participant’s interest in the Company for any reason, and no adjustments will be made for dividends in cash or other property, distributions or other rights in respect of the shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs, except as otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan or this Agreement.

3. Vesting.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Sections 3(b) and 3(c) hereof, the RSUs subject to this Award will become vested as set forth in the Award Notice; provided that, the Participant has not incurred a Termination prior to each such vesting date.

There will be no proportionate or partial vesting in the periods prior to each vesting date and all vesting will occur only on the appropriate vesting date, subject to the Participant’s continued service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries on each applicable vesting date.

(b) Committee Discretion to Accelerate Vesting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for accelerated vesting of the RSUs at any time and for any reason; provided that, the RSUs will immediately accelerate and become fully vested if the Participant experiences a Termination that is the result of a termination by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for reasons other than Cause (and not due to death or Disability) at any time on or following a Change in Control.

(c) Forfeiture. Subject to the Committee’s discretion to accelerate vesting hereunder, all unvested RSUs will be immediately forfeited upon the Participant’s Termination for any reason.

4. Delivery of Shares.

(a) General. Subject to the provisions of Section 4(b) hereof, within 30 days following the vesting of the RSUs, the Participant will receive the number of shares of Common Stock that correspond to the number of RSUs that have become vested on the applicable vesting date. Without limiting the foregoing, in lieu of delivering only shares of Common Stock, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, settle any vested RSUs by payment to the Participant in cash of an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the number of shares of Common Stock that correspond to the number of RSUs that have become vested on the applicable vesting date. The Participant acknowledges and agrees to notify the Company in writing if he or she sells any shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to such settlement within one year of any such sale.

(b) Blackout Periods. If the Participant is subject to any Company “blackout” policy or other trading restriction imposed by the Company on the date such distribution would otherwise be made pursuant to Section 4(a) hereof, the Company may defer such distribution until the earlier of (i) the date that the Participant is not subject to any such policy or restriction and (ii) the later of (A) the end of the calendar year in which such distribution would otherwise have been made and (B) a date that is immediately prior to the expiration of two and one-half months following the date such distribution would otherwise have been made hereunder.

5. Dividends; Rights as Stockholder. Cash dividends on shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder will be credited to a dividend book entry account on behalf of the Participant with respect to each RSU granted to the Participant and will be held uninvested and without interest and paid in cash at the same time that the shares of Common Stock (or cash payments, if applicable) underlying the RSUs are delivered to the Participant in accordance with the provisions hereof. Stock dividends on shares of Common Stock will be credited to a dividend book entry account on behalf of the Participant with respect to each RSU granted to the Participant; provided

2

that, such stock dividends will be paid in shares of Common Stock at the same time that the shares of Common Stock underlying the RSUs are delivered to the Participant in accordance with the provisions hereof. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Participant will have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock covered by any RSU unless and until the Participant has become the holder of record of such shares.

6. Non-Transferability. No portion of the RSUs may be sold, assigned, transferred, encumbered, hypothecated or pledged by the Participant, other than to the Company as a result of forfeiture of the RSUs as provided herein, unless and until payment is made in respect of vested RSUs in accordance with the provisions hereof and the Participant has become the holder of record of the vested shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder.

7. Restrictive Covenant Agreement. In consideration for, and as a condition to, the grant of RSUs herein, the Participant agrees to comply with and be bound by the Confidentiality, Non-Solicitation and Non-Competition Agreement (the “RCA”) attached hereto as Exhibit A, the provisions of which are hereby incorporated by reference. The Participant affirms that the Participant has read and understands the RCA, including, specifically, the scope and duration of the restrictive covenants set forth therein, and acknowledges and agrees that the terms of such RCA are in consideration for the Participant’s receipt of the grant of the RSUs under this Agreement.

8. Governing Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Agreement will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the choice of law principles thereof.

9. Withholding of Tax. The Company will have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require the Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, local and foreign taxes of any kind (including, but not limited to, the Participant’s FICA and SDI obligations) which the Company, in its sole discretion, deems necessary to be withheld or remitted to comply with the Code and/or any other applicable law, rule or regulation with respect to the RSUs and, if the Participant fails to do so, the Company may otherwise refuse to issue or transfer any shares of Common Stock otherwise required to be issued pursuant to this Agreement. With the consent of the Committee, any minimum statutorily required withholding obligation incurred in connection with the settlement of the RSUs may be satisfied by reducing the amount of cash or shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable upon settlement of the RSUs.

10. Legend. The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable federal, state or foreign securities law restrictions on all certificates representing shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Agreement. The Participant will, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to this Agreement in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section 10.

This Confidentiality, Non-Solicitation and Non-Competition Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of the date on which Employee was granted his or her equity award to which this Exhibit A is attached, by and between Paycor HCM, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the Participant set forth in the attached notice (“Employee”).

In consideration of the employment or continued employment of Employee by the Company or a subsidiary or affiliate of the Company (any such subsidiary or affiliate a “Related Company,” and all such subsidiaries or affiliates, collectively, the “Related Companies”) and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged; the Company and Employee covenant and agree as follows:

The Company is in the business of providing human capital management software and services, including (without limitation) payroll processing services, payroll tax filing services, benefits administration services, time and attendance solutions, applicant tracking systems, talent development, human capital management data analytics and related services (individually and collectively, “Paycor Business”). Employee will learn valuable trade secrets of Company and, as an employee of Company, will work with and in some instances create new inventions, software, information technology, and creative works to be used by Company.

5. Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” shall mean any non-public or secret information, knowledge, or data with respect to the Company’s and/or any of the Related Companies’ (collectively, the Company and the Related Companies are referred to herein as the “Paycor Companies”) business, services, trade secrets, technologies, systems, clients, prospects, and sales, marketing and service methods, including, but not limited to, discoveries, ideas, concepts, designs, drawings, specifications, equipment, techniques, computer flow charts and programs, computer software (whether owned or licensed by any of the Paycor Companies),

hardware, firmware, models, data, documentation, manuals, diagrams, research and development, performance information, know-how, business pricing policies and other internal policies, data systems, methods, systems documentation, practices, inventions, processes, procedures, formulae, employee lists or resumes, financial information (including financial statements), tax returns, client lists, prospect lists, information relating to past, present or prospective clients, information belonging to any of the Paycor Companies’ clients, personally identifiable information of clients’ employees, market analysis, strategies, plans and projections for future growth and development, and compilations of information which are not readily available to the general public. Confidential Information includes all non-public or secret: software development information, source and object codes, all information stored or maintained in any computer system or program used or maintained by the Paycor Companies, all information stored or maintained in any laptop computer or handheld device provided by any of the Paycor Companies, all client files, prospect files, legal contracts, purchase orders, and all information relating to client or vendor pricing. All of the foregoing information, whether oral, written, memorized, or electronically stored, together with analyses, compilations, studies, notes of conversations, or other documents prepared for or by any of the Paycor Companies or Employee that contain or otherwise reflect Confidential Information, is also included within the term Confidential Information. Confidential Information does not include (i) any information in the public domain; or (ii) any information received unsolicited from a third party under no obligation of secrecy.

6. Confidentiality. Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that Employee will acquire access to some or all of the Confidential Information, that the Confidential Information is regarded as valuable to the Paycor Companies and that the Paycor Companies have a legitimate right and business need to protect the Confidential Information. Employee acknowledges that keeping the Confidential Information confidential is essential to the growth and stability of the Paycor Companies. Employee therefore agrees to hold the Confidential Information in strictest confidence and shall not at any time, directly or indirectly, disclose such information to any third party or use such information other than for the benefit of the Paycor Companies or in the performance of Employee’s employment duties with respect to the Company. Employee shall disclose such information only to employees, representatives, and agents of the Paycor Companies with a need to know such information, except as may be reasonably required in the performance of Employee’s duties with respect to the Company. The restrictions set forth in this paragraph shall apply during the period of Employee’s employment with the Company and following the termination of employment until the end of time, whether the termination of employment is voluntary or involuntary. In accordance with the Defend Trade Secrets Act, 18 U.S.C. § 1833(b), and other applicable law, nothing in this Agreement or any other agreement or policy shall prevent Employee from, or expose Employee to criminal or civil liability under federal or state trade secret law for, (i) directly or indirectly sharing any Paycor Company trade secrets or other Confidential Information (except information protected by any of the Paycor Companies’ attorney-client or work product privilege) with an attorney or with any federal, state, or local government agencies, regulators, or officials, for the purpose of investigating or reporting a suspected violation of law, whether in response to a subpoena or otherwise, without notice to the Paycor Companies, or (ii) disclosing trade secrets in a complaint or other document filed in connection with a legal claim, provided that the filing is made under seal. Further, nothing herein shall prevent Employee from discussing or disclosing information related to Employee’s general job duties, responsibilities, or compensation. Employee also may disclose Confidential Information as required in response to a subpoena or other legal process, in accordance with the terms and procedures set forth in this Paragraph 6.

7. Return of Confidential Information; Return of Paycor Equipment and Property. Upon termination of Employee’s employment with any of the Paycor Companies for any reason whatsoever or upon the written request of any of the Paycor Companies, Employee shall immediately destroy, delete and/or return to the Paycor Companies all Confidential Information and all copies, abstracts, handwritten records and electronic records thereof, and Employee shall certify in writing to the Company that Employee does not retain originals, copies, abstracts, handwritten records or electronic records of any Confidential Information. Employee agrees that retention of any such Confidential Information in Employee’s memory does not permit Employee to use or disclose such information following Employee’s termination of employment with the Company. Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Paycor Companies shall retain all ownership rights in and to the Confidential Information disclosed by it, and nothing contained in this Agreement or in any disclosure of the Confidential Information shall be construed to grant Employee any license or other rights in or to the Confidential Information. Further, upon the termination of Employee’s employment, Employee agrees to immediately return to the Company all property and information belonging to the Company, such as (without limitation) office equipment, computers, printers, phones, key cards, company credit cards, and storage devices.

8. Assignment of Intellectual Property. Any inventions, improvements, discoveries, or ideas (including without limitation software and programming) conceived, developed, or made by Employee in whole or in part during Employee’s employment with any of the Paycor Companies, whether during business hours or otherwise, which relate to any of the Paycor Companies’ businesses or which are made using any of the Paycor Companies’ equipment, facilities, materials, labor, money, time or other resources or which result from any work performed by Employee, or by other employees, representatives or agents of any of the Paycor Companies for any of the Paycor Companies, shall be owned by and shall belong exclusively to the Paycor Companies and shall also be deemed Confidential Information for purposes of this Agreement. Any copyrightable works made by Employee within the scope of Employee’s employment with the Paycor Companies shall be deemed works made for hire, and all copyrights therein shall belong to the Paycor Companies. Employee agrees to promptly advise the Company of any and all such inventions, improvements, discoveries, works, and ideas, and, upon request, to execute U.S. and foreign patent applications, copyright applications and any other legal documents necessary to transfer title therein to the Company (or the Related Company designated by the Company), and to assist the Paycor Companies in any proper manner in obtaining and enforcing such patents and copyrights at the Paycor Companies’ expense.

9. Covenant Not to Compete. Employee acknowledges that because of Employee’s position of trust with the Company, in the course of Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee will be given access to or will become familiar with their trade secrets and with other Confidential Information, and that Employee’s services have been and shall be of special, unique and extraordinary value to the Paycor Companies. Employee further acknowledges and agrees that the Paycor Companies conduct business in every state in the United States as well as in Serbia and Canada. Therefore, Employee agrees that during Employee’s employment by Company, Employee will not, either directly or indirectly, without prior written authorization from Company, own, manage, operate, control, be employed by, perform services for, consult with, solicit business

for, participate in, or be connected with the ownership, management, operation, or control of any business which is competitive with the Paycor Business, as defined in Paragraph 4 herein. Employee further agrees that for a period of 12 months after Employee is no longer employed by Company, Employee shall not, in any capacity, directly or indirectly, in the Restricted Territory own, manage, assist or engage in the ownership, management or control of, or be employed or engaged by or otherwise affiliated or associated as a consultant, independent contractor or otherwise, with any other business, entity, company or person where Employee will provide similar services to a “Competing Business” (defined in the subsequent sentence) as those which Employee provided to Paycor while employed. “Competing Business” means any party (sole proprietor, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, association or other entity, regardless of form) that is engaged in any business that is the same as, or substantially the same as, that part of the Paycor Business in which Employee will have worked or to which Employee will have been exposed during the last two years of Employee’s employment at the Company. The restrictions set forth herein do not prevent Employee from owning, as an inactive investor, securities of any Competing Business that is listed on a national securities exchange. For purposes of this Agreement, “Restricted Territory” means any territory within the United States, Canada, Serbia or any other geographical region in which the Paycor Companies do or begin to do business during Employee’s employment with the Company and in which Employee has or had responsibility (including supervisory responsibility) at any time during Employee’s employment with the Company.

10. Customer, Business Partner and Employee Restrictions. Employee acknowledges that the Paycor Companies’ Customers, Prospective Customers, Business Partners, and employees now or hereafter employed by the Paycor Companies are an integral part of the Paycor Companies’ businesses, that non-public information relating to such Customers, Prospective Customers, Business Partners, and employees are part of the Paycor Companies’ Confidential Information, that because of Employee’s relationship of trust at the Company, Employee will have access to Confidential Information regarding the Paycor Companies’ Customers, Prospective Customers, Business Partners, and employees, and that the loss of such Customers, Prospective Customers, Business Partners, and/or employees will have a substantial adverse effect on the Paycor Companies’ businesses. Therefore, Employee agrees as follows:

A. During the term of Employee’s employment with the Company and for a period of 12 months following termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason, Employee agrees that Employee will not, either directly or indirectly, for any purpose other than for the benefit of the Paycor Companies solicit, provide sales or service to, or otherwise accept business of the type being offered by the Paycor Companies from any person, partnership, corporation, limited liability company, or other entity who or which is a Customer or Prospective Customer.

In the case of a Customer or Prospective Customer with multiple locations, this Paragraph 10 applies to all locations where the Paycor Companies have provided or will reasonably be expected to provide sales or service now or in the future to such Customer or Prospective Customer (as applicable). Employee further agrees that, during the term of Employee’s employment with the Company and for a period of 12 months following termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason, Employee will not directly or indirectly, cause or attempt to cause any Customer or Prospective Customer to divert its business

away from any of the Paycor Companies to any other person or entity, whether or not Employee is affiliated with such person or entity. For purposes of this Agreement, “Customer” means any business, entity, company or person who or which is or was a customer or client of the Paycor Companies while Employee was employed by the Company and/or during the 12 months preceding termination of Employee’s employment and with whom or which Employee had Material Contact or about whom or which Employee obtained Confidential Information because of Employee’s employment with the Company, “Prospective Customer” means any business, entity, company or person who or which is or was a prospective customer or client of the Paycor Companies while Employee was employed by the Company and/or during the 12 months preceding Employee’s termination of employment and with whom or which Employee had Material Contact or about whom or which Employee obtained Confidential Information because of Employee’s employment with the Company, and “Material Contact” means actual contact (whether in person, virtual, or by email, text or phone) between Employee and a Customer or Prospective Customer with whom or which Employee dealt on behalf of the Paycor Companies; or whose dealings with the Paycor Companies were coordinated or supervised by Employee; or who or which received goods or services from the Paycor Companies that resulted in payment of commissions or other compensation to Employee; or about whom Employee obtained Confidential Information because of Employee’s employment with the Company.

B. During the term of Employee’s employment with the Company and for a period of 12 months following termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason, Employee agrees that Employee will not, directly or indirectly, solicit or induce or attempt to solicit or induce any employee or independent contractor of any of the Paycor Companies to leave the employ or engagement of such Paycor Companies, or to directly or indirectly hire or engage any employee or independent contractor of Company to work for Employee or any entity with whom Employee is or becomes affiliated.

C. During the term of Employee’s employment with the Company and for a period of 12 months following termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason, Employee agrees that Employee will not, directly or indirectly, interfere or attempt to interfere with a contractual relationship between any of the Paycor Companies and any Business Partner with whom Employee had material contact during the 12 month period immediately prior to Employee’s termination of employment with the Company. For the purposes of this subparagraph C a “Business Partner” means an actual or prospective supplier, vendor, referral partner, strategic partner, or other third party with whom a Paycor Company has a contractual relationship other than Customers and employees, or about which Employee has learned or been provided any Confidential Information during Employee’s employment with the Company.

11. Reasonableness and Modifications of Restrictions. Employee further acknowledges and agrees that the provisions set forth in Paragraphs 9 and 10 are reasonable in scope, duration, and area, and are reasonably necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Paycor Companies, and particularly the Paycor Companies’ interest in protecting its Confidential Information. If any provision of Paragraphs 9 or 10 are held to be unenforceable due to the scope, duration or area of its application, the parties intend and agree that the court making such determination shall modify such scope, duration, or area, or all of them to what the court considers reasonable, and such provision shall then be enforced in such modified form.

12. Irreparable Harm. Because of the unique nature of the Confidential Information, Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Paycor Companies will suffer irreparable harm in the event that Employee fails to comply with any of Employee’s obligations set forth herein and that monetary damages will be inadequate to compensate the Paycor Companies for such breach. Accordingly, Employee agrees that the Company and/or any Related Company, in addition to any other remedies available to it at law or in equity, will be entitled to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to enforce the terms hereof. Employee further agrees to reimburse Company for all costs incurred by Company in any successful legal proceeding for equitable, monetary, or other relief to enforce or protect its rights under this Agreement, including but not limited to, reasonable attorney fees.

13. Representation. The Employee represents and warrants that the Employee is not under any pre- existing obligations that are inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement or the employment of the Employee by the Company or any of the Related Companies.

14. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Ohio (regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof) as to all matters, including but not limited to matters of validity, construction, effect, performance and remedies. Any action, suit or proceeding brought by any party with respect to, or to enforce the terms of, this Agreement shall be brought by such party exclusively in the Common Pleas Court of Hamilton County, Ohio, or in the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of Ohio, Western Division in Cincinnati, Ohio, and each party, by its execution of this Agreement irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts. In the event of any action by a party to enforce its or his rights hereunder, the prevailing party in such action shall be entitled to an award of its or his costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, including all reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.

15. Severability. In the event that any term or provision of this Agreement is unenforceable, the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall to the extent possible, remain in full force and effect and be fully binding upon both parties hereto.

16. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding and agreement among the Company and Employee with regard to all matters contained herein and no representations, promises, agreements or understandings, written or oral, not herein contained shall be of any force or effect. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented, or interpreted at any time only by written instrument duly executed by both parties. No valid waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver of any other provisions of this Agreement or will be deemed a valid waiver of such provision at any other time. Each of the Related Companies are intended third party beneficiaries of this Agreement and the Company and the Employee acknowledge, understand, and agree that the terms of this Agreement may be enforced by the Company or any of the Related Companies.

17. Assignment. The Company shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder to any successor in interest, whether by merger, consolidation, sale of assets, or otherwise.
