Dear Simon,

We are pleased to confirm our offer to you for the position of Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) for Terex Corporation (“Terex” or the “Company”). The CEO is a very visible position in our Company with duties customarily associated with that position and such other duties consistent therewith as may be determined by the Board, including overall responsibility for the Company's corporate policy making, organization and operation, and accomplishment of its plans and objectives. The CEO position is the senior-most executive position at our Company, reporting directly to the Board of Directors. In addition, it is intended that you will become a member of Terex Corporation Board of Directors.

The following represents the terms of our offer of employment to you:

1.Your employment as CEO for Terex is expected to start on January 1, 2024 or on such other date as is mutually agreed by you and the Company.

2.You will be compensated at the rate of $35,576.92 per bi-weekly pay period which annualizes to $925,000.   Your Base Salary will be reviewed annually and adjusted as determined by the Board.

3.You will be eligible to participate in the Terex Management Incentive Bonus Plan effective January 1, 2024 with a target set at 110% of your base salary. The eligibility for and elements of the Plan are adjusted each year by the Company and typically include formulas based on both Terex financial performance as well as individual performance. You can earn more or less than your target amount based on Terex’s financial performance and your individual performance and achievement of goals. Each year, you will be issued a copy of the Plan for that year setting forth the details, including conditions for payout, for that year. The details will be presented to you early in 2024.

4.Subject to compliance with all applicable laws, and conditioned on the formal ratification of the Compensation and Human Capital Committee of the Board of Directors, you will receive a 2024 long term incentive award under the Terex Corporation Amended and Restated 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan in the amount of $4,700,000, which will be both time and performance based. The vesting and form of this award will be consistent with the vesting and form of similar 2024 long term incentive awards granted to other similarly situated Terex executives. Eligibility to participate does not guarantee any future awards. Future eligibility, frequency, type, or amount of awards will be linked to company financial performance and individual performance and vary over time.

5.You will remain eligible to participate in either the Terex Deferred Compensation Plan (“DCP”) or the ERISA Excess Plan (“EEP”) offered to senior level executives. Both the DCP and EEP Plan provide alternatives for use in deferring income taxes. There is a 25% matching contribution on eligible deferrals to the Terex Stock Fund in the DCP. There is a matching contribution of up to 5% for eligible deferrals to the EEP.

6.You will remain eligible to participate in the Terex Corporation Defined Contribution Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan. This plan provides for an annual contribution of 10% of your annual salary and bonus earned to be deposited to the Bond Fund of the DCP. Additional details of this plan will be provided to you separately.

7.The Company will provide you with change in control and severance protection upon commencement of your new role, which will be for twenty-four (24) months of salary, bonus, and benefits, in accordance with the Company’s standard Change in Control and Severance Agreement (the “Severance Agreement” and such severance as defined therein, “Severance”).

This relocation assistance is offered for a time period up to twelve (12) months after January 1, 2024. Relocation expenses will be grossed-up at the employee’s tax rate.
