Transition Services Agreement between Specialty Pipe & Tube Operations LLC and Ascent Industries Co. dated as of December 22, 2023

This TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of December 22, 2023 (“Effective Date”), by and between Ascent Industries Co., a Delaware corporation (“Provider”) and Specialty Pipe & Tube Operations LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Purchaser”). Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings given thereto in the Asset Purchase Agreement by and among the Provider and Purchaser and Specialty Pipe & Tube, Inc. (the “Company”) dated as of December 22, 2023 (the “Purchase Agreement”).

1.1Transition Services. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, Provider will provide all services (hereinafter referred to individually as a “Transition Service” and collectively as the “Transition Services”) Provider provided to Company for the 12-month period preceding the Effective Date, including those set forth in Schedule A hereto, to Purchaser (and such other services as mutually agreed upon in writing by Provider and Purchaser) during the time period specified for each such Transition Service in such Schedule (hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Time Periods” for all of the Transition Services and individually a “Time Period” for a Transition Service). Provider shall provide the Transition Services in a materially similar manner as Provider historically provided such services for Company. The parties shall cooperate in good faith to ensure the Transition Services are rendered in a timely and efficient manner to transition the Purchased Assets and Business operations to Purchaser.

1.2Personnel. In providing the Transition Services, Provider may, as it deems necessary or appropriate, (i) use the personnel of Provider or its affiliates, and (ii) employ the services of third parties to the extent that, and subject to the condition that, such third party services are routinely utilized to provide similar services to other businesses of Provider or are reasonably necessary for the efficient performance of such Transition Services.

1.3Representatives. Provider and Purchaser shall each nominate a representative to act as its primary contact person to coordinate the provision of all of the Transition Services (collectively, the "Primary Coordinators"). Each Primary Coordinator may designate one or more service coordinators for each specific Transition Service (the "Service Coordinators"). Each party may treat an act of a Primary Coordinator or Service Coordinator of another party as being authorized by such other party without inquiring behind such act or ascertaining whether such Primary Coordinator or Service Coordinator had authority to so act, provided, however, that no such Primary Coordinator or Service Coordinator has authority to amend this Agreement. Provider and Purchaser shall advise each other promptly (in any case no more than five (5) business days) in writing of any change in the Primary Coordinators and any Service Coordinator for a particular Transition Service, setting forth the name of the Primary Coordinator or Service Coordinator to be replaced and the name of the replacement, and certifying that the replacement Primary Coordinator or Service Coordinator is authorized to act for such party in all matters relating to this Agreement, in the case of a Primary Coordinator or, in the case of a Service Coordinator, with respect to the Transition Service for which such Service Coordinator has been designated. Provider and Purchaser each agree that all communications relating to the provision of the Transition Services shall be directed to the Service Coordinators for such Transition Service with copies to the Primary Coordinators. Provider’s initial Primary Coordinator shall be Bill Steckel. Purchaser’s initial Primary Coordinator shall be Jerry Dungan. For each Transition Service, Provider’s and Purchaser’s initial Service Coordinator is set forth on the Schedules.

1.4Level of Transition Services.

(a)In all events, Provider shall perform, and shall cause any affiliate of Provider that performs Transition Services to perform, the Transition Services without discriminating in any material or intentional respect against Purchaser with respect to providing such Transition Services or taking such actions in favor of any other business of Provider or any other Persons.

(b)Provider and Purchaser shall cooperate with one another and provide such further assistance as the other may reasonably request in connection with the provision of the Transition Services.

(c)In addition to being subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement for the provision of the Transition Services, Provider and Purchaser each agree that the Transition Services provided by third parties shall be subject to the terms and conditions of any agreements between Provider and such third parties, which agreements shall be on substantially the same conditions as Provider would enter into with such third parties for its own account, and no such agreements shall be binding on Purchaser after the term of this Agreement or the termination of any individual Transition Service without Purchaser’s express written consent.

1.5Modification of Procedures or Services.

(a)Subject to the procedure set forth in this Section 1.5 to the extent applicable, Provider may make changes from time to time in its standards and procedures or third parties contracts for performing the Transition Services, provided that such changes do not (i) result in an adverse impact to the Company/Purchaser, (ii) result degradation in the quality or timeliness of the services performed, or (iii) result in an increase in the consideration charged by the Provider to the Purchaser for the services performed.

(b)During the term of this Agreement, Purchaser shall, within 10 days after such plans are available, provide Provider with a plan identifying any changes in Purchaser's business that may affect the provision of the Transition Services by Provider; provided, however, that Provider shall not be required to alter the method in which it provides the Transition Services or increase the level of such Services in any material manner; provided, further, however, that the

failure of Purchaser to provide such notice shall not alter or diminish Provider's obligations to provide the Transition Services on the terms set forth herein except where the failure to provide notice has materially increased Provider's cost or burden to provide such Transition Service.

1.6No Obligation to Continue to Use Services; Provider to Assist in Transitioning.

(a)Purchaser shall not be obligated to continue to use any of the Transition Services and may terminate any Transition Service by giving Provider ten (10) days prior notice thereof in accordance with the notice provisions herein.

(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, Provider shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to assist Purchaser in Purchaser’s efforts in undertaking to provide for itself any Transition Services, including without limitation giving Purchaser possession of the various documents, data and other records used or useful in the delivery of such Transition Services (to the extent that such provision would not violate the confidentiality terms of any proprietary documents) and taking such other steps as are reasonably necessary and without material cost to Provider to assist Purchaser to provide for itself such Transition Services on a self-sufficient basis.

1.7Provider/Purchaser Access. To the extent reasonably required for personnel of Provider to perform the Transition Services, Purchaser shall provide personnel of Provider with reasonable access during normal business hours (to the extent practicable) to its equipment, office space, plants, telecommunications and computer equipment and systems, and any other areas and equipment. Purchaser will provide Provider access, including remote access, to all IT systems/software used by the Company, including outside of normal business hours. To enable the Purchaser to establish its own IT systems/software, Provider will provide access to (or the transfer of) data that exclusively used by the Company.

1.8Purchaser Obligations. During the term of this Agreement, Purchaser shall (i) comply with any reasonable instructions provided by Provider that are necessary for Provider to adequately provide the Transition Services; (ii) comply with all applicable standards and procedures applicable to such Transition Service which are in the manner generally applied by Provider in its business; and (iii) promptly report any operational or system problem affecting, the provision of any Transition Services to Provider. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any failure by Purchaser to perform any of the foregoing shall not alter or diminish Provider's obligations to provide the Transition Services on the terms set forth herein except where the failure to so perform has materially increased Provider's cost or burden to provide such Transition Service, or where such failure prevents the provision of the Transition Service in substantially the same manner as previously provided.

1.9Obligations to Each Party. All employees and representatives of Provider and its Affiliates shall be deemed to be employees or representatives of Provider and its Affiliates, and not employees or representatives of Purchaser or any of its respective Affiliates. All employees and representatives of Purchaser and its Affiliates shall be deemed to be employees or representatives of Purchaser and its Affiliates, and not employees or representatives of Provider or any of its Affiliates. Nothing in this Agreement shall make any party the partner, fiduciary, agent, or representative of any other party. Except as expressly contemplated herein, no party shall assume or create any obligations or responsibility, express or implied, on behalf of or in the name of any other party, or bind any other party in any manner whatsoever.

2.1Consideration. As consideration for the Transition Services, Purchaser shall pay to Provider the amount specified for each such Transition Service in accordance with the provision as set forth in the first paragraph of Schedule A to this Agreement.

2.2Invoices. After the end of each month, Provider, together with its affiliates or subsidiaries providing Transition Services, will submit a single itemized invoice with appropriate documentation for amounts included to Purchaser for all Transition Services provided to Purchaser during such month that are to be paid monthly. All invoices shall be sent to the attention of the Primary Coordinator at the address set forth in Section 7.1 hereof or to such other address as Purchaser shall have specified by notice in writing to Provider.

2.3Payment of Invoices.

(a)Payment of all invoices in respect of a Transition Service shall be made by check or electronic funds transmission in U.S. Dollars, without any offset or deduction of any nature whatsoever (except that offset or deduction may be made in regard to other invoiced amounts due under this Agreement or to the extent of a dispute in good faith concerning amounts due under this Agreement), within ten (10) days of the invoice date unless otherwise specified in the Schedule relating to such Transition Service. All payments shall be made to the account designated by Provider to Purchaser.

(b)If any payment is not paid when due (except to the extent disputed in good faith), Provider shall have the right to immediately terminate the service for which payment has not been paid. Notwithstanding the above, Provider shall not cease providing any Transition Service or terminate this Agreement if such lack of payment is due to a good faith dispute, the details of which Purchaser has indicated to Provider in writing provided Purchaser is continuing to negotiate in good faith regarding such dispute.

2.4Provider shall keep true, complete, and accurate books of account regarding costs and expenses, financial records, Tax records and other relevant information associated with the provision of the Transition Services. Provider shall provide copies of all such available information within five (5) days of request from Purchaser (or from the date such information becomes available), or such other mutually agreed to time period.

3.1As used in this Agreement, the "Confidential Information" of a party shall mean all information concerning or related to the business, operations, financial condition or prospects of such party or any of its Affiliates that is disclosed to the other party (or to which the other party gains access) pursuant to the transactions contemplated under this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement, regardless of the form in which such information appears and whether or not such information has been reduced to a tangible form, and shall specifically include (i) all inventions, discoveries, trade secrets, customer information, processes, techniques, methods, formulae, ideas and know-how, if any, of such party and its Affiliates and (ii) all financial statements, audit reports, budgets and business plans or forecasts of such party and its Affiliates; provided, that the Confidential Information of a party shall not include (A) information which is or becomes generally known to the public through no act or omission of the other party in breach of its obligations under Sections 3.1 or 3.2, (B) information which has been or hereafter is lawfully obtained by the other party from a third party so long as, in the case of information obtained from a third party, to the knowledge of such receiving party, such

third party was or is not, directly or indirectly, subject to an obligation of confidentiality owed to the party to whom such Confidential Information belongs or any of its Affiliates at the time such Confidential Information was or is disclosed to the other party, (C) information that is independently developed by the receiving party, and (D) information the discloser has a legal right to disclose.

3.2Except as otherwise permitted by Section 3.3 below or the Purchase Agreement, (i) Purchaser agrees that it will keep the Confidential Information of Provider strictly confidential, and will cause its Affiliates to keep the Confidential Information of Provider and its Affiliates strictly confidential, and will not, without the prior written consent of Provider, disclose any Confidential Information of Provider and (ii) Provider agrees that it will keep the Confidential Information of Purchaser strictly confidential, and will cause each of its Affiliates to keep the Confidential Information of Purchaser and its Affiliates strictly confidential, and will not, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, disclose any Confidential Information of Purchaser.

In the event the protective order referenced in clause (ii) is not obtained or disclosure pursuant to clause (iii) is necessary, the disclosing party shall furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information which is legally required and shall exercise its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain confidential treatment of the Confidential Information. To the extent not prohibited by Law, the disclosing party will provide a copy of any Confidential Information which is being disclosed pursuant to the provisions of this Article III to the other party prior to disclosing such Confidential Information to a third party.

3.4Upon the termination of this Agreement, at the request of either party, the other party shall, as soon as practicable, return, or, at its option, destroy and cause to be returned or destroyed all or any requested portion of the requesting party's Confidential Information.

4.1Term. This Agreement shall become effective on the Closing Date and shall remain in force until the expiration of the longest Time Period specified in any Schedule hereto (the "Expiration Date"), unless all of the Transition Services are terminated by Purchaser in accordance with Section 1.6(a) above, or this Agreement is terminated under Section 2.3(b) prior to the Expiration Date. Notwithstanding the above, Provider and Purchaser agree to use commercially reasonable efforts in expediting the transition of each of the Transition Services from Provider to Purchaser.

Accordingly, each party agrees that, absent gross negligence, willful misconduct, theft or fraud, the other party, its subsidiaries and affiliates and their directors, officers, employees, representatives, consultants and agents shall not be liable for any indirect, special, or incidental damages, including lost profits or savings, whether or not such damages are foreseeable, or for any third party claims relating to the Transition Services or each party’s performance under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event Provider commits an error with respect to or incorrectly performs or fails to perform any Transition Service, at Purchaser’s request, Provider shall promptly use reasonable efforts and in good faith attempt to correct such error, re-perform or perform such Transition Service at no additional cost to Purchaser; provided that, absent gross negligence, willful misconduct, theft or fraud, Provider shall have no obligation to recreate any lost or destroyed data to the extent the same cannot be cured by the re-performance of the Transition Service in question.
