NOW THEREFORE THIS AGREEMENT WITNESSES THAT in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by both parties, the Employer and the Executive agree as follows:

a.The Employer agrees to employ the Executive pursuant to the terms and conditions described in this Agreement, including the appendices to this Agreement, and the Executive hereby accepts and agrees to such employment. Unless otherwise defined, the defined terms in this Agreement will have the same meaning in the appendices hereto.

b.The Executive will be employed in the position of Chief Technology Officer and such other duties and responsibilities consistent with her position as may be assigned by the Employer from time to time. The Executive shall be principally based at her home office in the State of Minnesota (“Place of Employment”) and shall report directly to the Chief Executive Officer.

c.The Executive’s employment with the Employer will commence on June 3. 2024 (the “Commencement Date”), and the Executive’s employment hereunder will continue for an indefinite period of time until terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or applicable law (the “Term”).

d.During the Term, the Executive will at all times:

i.well and faithfully serve the Employer, and act honestly and in good faith in the best interests of the Employer;

ii.devote all of the Executive’s business time, attention, and abilities, and provide her best efforts, expertise, skills, and talents, to the business of the Employer, except as provided in Section 2(b);

iii.adhere to all generally applicable written policies of the Employer, and obey and observe to the best of the Executive’s abilities all lawful orders and directives, whether verbal or written, of the Board;

iv.act lawfully and professionally, and exercise the degree of care, diligence, and skill that an executive employee would exercise in comparable circumstances; and

v.to the best of the Executive’s abilities perform the duties and exercise the responsibilities required of the Executive under this Agreement.

a.The Executive represents and warrants to the Employer that the Executive has no existing common law, contractual, or statutory obligations to her former employer or to any other person that will conflict with the Executive’s duties and responsibilities under this Agreement.

b.During the term of this Agreement, the Executive will not be engaged directly or indirectly in any outside business activities, whether for profit or not-for-profit, as principal, partner, director, officer, active shareholder, advisor, employee or otherwise, without first having obtained the written permission of the Employer.

a.The Executive agrees to comply with all generally applicable written policies applying to the Employer’s staff that may reasonably be issued by the Employer from time to time. The Executive agrees that the introduction, amendment, and administration of such generally applicable written policies are within the sole discretion of the Employer. If the Employer introduces, amends, or deletes such generally applicable written policies, such introduction, deletion or amendment will not constitute a constructive dismissal or breach of this Agreement. If there is a direct conflict between this Agreement and any such policy, this Agreement will prevail to the extent of the inconsistency.

a.Upon the Commencement Date, and continuing during the Term, the Executive will earn the following annual compensation, less applicable statutory and regular payroll deductions and withholdings:

b.The structure of the STI Bonus and LTI Grant will be consistent with those granted to the Employer’s other executives and is subject to amendment from time to time by the Employer. Currently, LTI grants for executives are provided as follows:

i.A mix of equity which may include restricted share units, performance share units, or stock options issued under RB Global’s 2023 Share Incentive Plan (as amended from time to time, the “Plan”), at varying percentages as set forth by and subject to the approval of the Compensation Committee;

ii.For illustrative purposes only, past LTI grants to executives have been comprised of a mixture of: (a) stock options having a ten-year term, vesting in equal one-third parts after the first, second, and third anniversaries of the grant date, (b) restricted share units (RSUs) vesting in equal one-third parts after the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date, and (c) performance share units (PSUs) vesting on the third anniversary of the grant date based on actual performance against pre-established criteria, with the number of share units that vest ranging from 0% to 200% of target based on actual performance.

c.The specific terms and conditions for the LTI Grant, including but not limited to the provisions upon termination of employment will be based on the relevant plan and award documents.

d.The Executive’s STI Bonus for 2024 will be prorated based upon the Executive’s Commencement Date, under RB Global’s STI plan for the 2024 performance year ending December 31, 2024. Such bonus shall be paid in accordance with the terms of RB Global’s

STI plan. The Executive must be employed by the Employer at the time payment of such bonus would be made to be eligible for this bonus payment.

e.The Executive will be eligible for a full-year LTI grant, without proration, in respect of 2024; the equity grant is contingent on Compensation Committee approval. The specific terms and conditions for LTI Grants (including but not limited to the provisions upon termination of employment) will be based on the relevant plan and award documents of RB Global and may be subject to amendments from time to time. Such 2024 LTI grant shall have an economic value of USD $1,500,000, with the actual number of units being determined at the grant date. The 2024 LTI grant is subject to approval by the Compensation Committee.

f.The Executive will be eligible for a sign-on grant (“SOG”) having an economic value of USD $1,000,000, comprised of (i) RSUs with an economic value of USD $500,000 vesting in equal one-third parts after the first, second, and third anniversaries of the 2024 LTI grant date (about March 15, 2024), and (ii) PSUs with an economic value of $500,000 vesting on the third anniversary of the 2024 LTI grant date (about March 15, 2024) based on the same pre-established performance criteria as the annual 2024 LTI grant, with the number of share units that ultimately vest ranging from 0% to 200% of target based on actual performance. The SOG will be awarded on or about June 17, 2024, and is subject to approval by the Compensation Committee.

g.Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement to the contrary, the Executive will be subject to any written clawback/recoupment policy of the Employer in effect from time to time, allowing the recovery of incentive compensation previously paid or payable to the Executive in cases of proven misconduct or material financial restatement, whether pursuant to the requirements of Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and the Consumer Protection Act, the listing requirements of any national securities exchange on which common stock of the Employer is listed, or otherwise.

a.The Executive will be eligible to participate in the Employer’s US group benefit plans, subject to the terms and conditions of said plans and the applicable policies of the Employer and applicable benefits providers. Subject to the Executive’s eligibility, such benefits will include, without limitation, United States medical coverage satisfying the minimum essential coverage requirements under the United States Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, short-term and long-term disability coverage, and term life insurance.

b.The liability of the Employer with respect to the Executive’s employment benefits is limited to the premiums or portions of the premiums the Employer regularly pays on behalf of the Executive in connection with said employee benefits. The Executive agrees that the Employer is not, and will not be deemed to be, the insurer and, for greater certainty, the Employer will not be liable for any decision of a third-party benefits provider or insurer, including any decision to deny coverage or any other decision that affects the Executive’s benefits or insurance.

a.The Employer will reimburse the Executive, in accordance with the Employer’s policies, for all authorized travel and other out-of-pocket expenses actually and properly incurred by the Executive in the course of carrying out the Executive’s duties and responsibilities under this Agreement.

a.Given the management nature of the Executive’s position, the Executive is required to work additional hours from time to time and is not eligible for overtime pay. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the compensation provided under this Agreement represents full compensation for all of the Executive’s working hours and services, including overtime.

a.The Executive will earn up to five (5) weeks (or twenty-five (25) business days) of paid time off (PTO) per annum.

b.The Executive will take her PTO subject to business needs, and in accordance with the Employer’s PTO policy in effect from time to time.

c.Annual PTO must be taken and may not be accrued, deferred, or banked without the Employer’s written approval.

a.Termination for cause: The Employer may terminate the Executive’s employment at any time for Cause, after providing the Executive with at least 30 days’ notice of such proposed termination and 15 days to remedy the alleged defect. In this Agreement, “Cause” means the willful and continued failure by the Executive to substantially perform, or otherwise properly carry out, the Executive’s duties on behalf of RB Global or its operating affiliates, or to follow, in any material respect, the lawful policies, procedures, instructions or directions of the Employer or any applicable affiliate (other than any such failure resulting from the Executive’s disability or incapacity due to physical or mental illness), or the Executive willfully or intentionally engaging in illegal or fraudulent conduct, financial impropriety, intentional dishonesty, breach of duty of loyalty or any similar intentional act which is materially injurious RB Global or an affiliate, or which may have the effect of materially injuring the reputation, business or business relationships of the Employer or an affiliate, or any other act or omission constituting cause for termination of employment without notice or pay in lieu of notice at common law. For the purposes of this definition, no act, or failure to act, on the part of an Executive shall be considered “willful” unless done or omitted to be done, by the Executive in bad faith and without reasonable belief that the Executive’s action or omissions were in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Employer and its affiliates.

In the event of termination for Cause, the rights of the Executive with respect to any PSUs, RSUs (including those issued as part of the SOG), or stock options granted pursuant to the Plan or any successor plan providing for grants of PSUs, RSUs, or stock options, and pursuant to any and all PSU, RSU and stock option grant agreements, will be governed pursuant to the terms of the Plan, or any successor plan thereto, and respective grant agreements for such PSUs, RSUs and stock options.

b.Termination for Good Reason: The Executive may terminate her employment with the Employer for Good Reason by delivery of written notice to the Employer within the sixty (60)

day period commencing upon the occurrence of Good Reason including the basis for such Good Reason (with such termination effective thirty (30) days after such written notice is delivered to the Employer and only in the event that the Employer fails or is unable to cure such Good Reason within such thirty (30) day period). In the event of a termination of the Executive’s employment for Good Reason, the Executive will receive pay and benefits as if terminated by the Employer without Cause under Section 9 c. below, and the termination shall be regarded as a termination without Cause for purposes of the Plan. In this Agreement, “Good Reason” means (1) a material adverse change by RB Global or an affiliate, without the Executive’s consent, to the Executive’s position, authority, duties, responsibilities, Executive’s place of residence, Base Salary or the potential short-term or long-term incentive bonus the Executive is eligible to earn, (2) a change in the Executive’s reporting such that the Executive no longer reports directly to the CEO or (3) a requirement by the Employer that the Executive’s regular Place of Employment be changed, but does not include a change in the Executive’s duties and/or responsibilities arising from a change in the scope or nature of RB Global’s business operations, provided such change does not adversely affect the Executive’s position or authority or is a change across the board affecting similar executives in a similar fashion.

c.Termination without Cause: The Employer may terminate the Executive’s employment at any time, without Cause by providing the Executive with the following:

i.Eighteen (18) months’ Base Salary and STI Bonus at Target;

ii.all equity awards will be governed by the terms of the relevant plan;

iii.an STI Bonus (at target) for the year of termination of employment, pro-rated based on the number of days of employment in the year up to the Termination Date;

iv.continued extended health and dental benefits coverage at active employee rates until the earlier of the first anniversary of the termination of the Executive’s employment or the date on which the Executive begins new full-time employment.

d.Resignation: The Executive may terminate her employment with the Employer at any time by providing the Employer with three (3) months’ notice in writing to that effect. If the Executive provides the Employer with written notice under this Section, the Employer may waive such notice, in whole or in part, in which case the Employer will pay the Executive the Base Salary only for the amount of time remaining in that notice period and the Executive’s employment will terminate on the earlier date specified by the Employer without any further compensation.

In the event of resignation, the rights of the Executive with respect to any PSUs, RSUs (including those issued as part of the SOG), or stock options granted pursuant to the Plan, or any successor plans thereto, and pursuant to any and all PSU, RSU and stock option grant agreements, will be governed pursuant to the terms of the Plan (or their successor plans, as applicable) and respective grant agreements for such PSUs, RSUs and stock options.

e.Retirement: In the event of the Executive’s retirement, as defined by the Employer’s policies, the rights of the Executive with respect to any PSUs, RSUs (including those issued as part of the SOG) or stock options granted pursuant to the Plan, or any successor plans, as applicable, and pursuant to any and all PSU, RSU and stock option grant agreements, will be governed pursuant to the terms of the Plan (or any successor plans, as applicable) and will be based on

the relevant plan and award documents of RB Global and may be subject to amendments from time to time.

f.Termination Without Cause or For Good Reason Following Change of Control: In the event of Termination without Cause or for Good Reason within one (1) year of a change of control of the Employer, the Executive will have the rights set forth in the Change of Control Agreement attached as Exhibit “A” hereto.

The Executive hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of this Agreement executed by the Company.

Payments and benefits provided under or referenced in this Agreement are intended to be designed in such a manner that they are either exempt from the application of, or comply with, the requirements of, Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and the regulations issued thereunder (collectively, as in effect from time to time, “Section 409A”) and shall be construed, administered and interpreted in accordance with such intention. If, as of the date of the Executive’s termination, the Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A, then to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A and to avoid the imposition of taxes and/or penalties under Section 409A, payment to the Executive of any amount or benefit under this Agreement or any other Employer plan, program or agreement that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A and which under the terms of this Agreement or any other Employer plan, program or arrangement would otherwise be payable as a result of and within six (6) months following such termination shall be delayed, as provided under current regulatory requirements under Section 409A, until the earlier of (i) five (5) days after the Employer receives notification of the Executive’s death or (ii) the first business day of the seventh month following the date of the Executive’s termination.

Any payment or benefit under this Agreement that is payable upon a termination of the Executive’s employment shall only be paid or provided to the Executive upon a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. If the Executive or the Company determine that any payment, benefit, distribution, deferral election, or any other action or arrangement contemplated by the provisions of this Agreement would, if undertaken or implemented, cause the Executive to become subject to taxes and/or penalties under Section 409A, then such payment, benefit, distribution, deferral election or other action or arrangement shall not be given effect to the extent it causes such result and the related provisions of this Agreement will be deemed modified in order to provide the Executive with the intended economic benefit and comply with the requirements of Section 409A.

To the extent necessary to cause payments under this Agreement to be exempt from, or comply with, Section 409A, the term Change of Control shall mean a “change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A
