WHEREAS, the Company desires to grant to the Participant an Award of Restricted Stock Units under the UL Solutions Inc. 2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) as set forth in this Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, the Company and the Participant agree as follows:

1.    Plan Governs; Capitalized Terms. This Agreement is made pursuant to the Plan, and the terms of the Plan are incorporated into this Agreement, except as otherwise specifically stated herein. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement that are not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings as used or defined in the Plan. References in this Agreement to any specific Plan provision shall not be construed as limiting the applicability of any other Plan provision. To the extent any terms and conditions herein conflict with the terms and conditions of the Plan, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall control except to the extent the Plan provides that the Agreement may vary the terms of the Plan. The Participant acknowledges that he or she has reviewed the terms of the Plan, and agrees to be bound by them. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Participant acknowledges that pursuant to Section 3.1 of the Plan the Administrator has the exclusive authority and discretion to interpret the Plan and this Agreement and to resolve all issues arising thereunder, and the Participant agrees to be bound by any determination made by the Administrator with respect to this Agreement and the Restricted Stock Units.

2.    Award of Restricted Stock Units. The Company hereby grants to the Participant on the Grant Date an Award of [XXX] Restricted Stock Units. Each Restricted Stock Unit constitutes an unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to deliver (or cause to be delivered) to the Participant one Share, or the Fair Market Value thereof, upon vesting in accordance with Section 3 and settlement in accordance with Section 4. The Company shall hold the Restricted Stock Units in book-entry form. The Participant shall have no direct or secured claim in any specific assets of the Company or the Shares that may become issuable to the Participant under Section 4, and shall have the status of a general unsecured creditor of the Company. For avoidance of doubt, references in this Agreement to “Restricted Stock Units” shall apply only to those Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Agreement.

3.    Vesting.

(a)    Generally. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3, one-third of the Restricted Stock Units (rounded to the next highest number of whole Restricted Stock Units) shall vest on each of the first two anniversaries of the Grant Date, and all remaining Restricted

Stock Unit shall vest on the third anniversary of the Grant Date (each such anniversary, a “Vesting Date”), provided that the Participant has been continuously employed by one or more members of the Company Group from the Grant Date through the Vesting Date, and if the Participant incurs a Termination of Service prior to any Vesting Date, all Restricted Stock Units that have not yet vested shall be immediately and automatically forfeited on the date of termination without any further action by the Company, and without any payment of compensation to the Participant. For avoidance of doubt, this Section 3 supersedes Section 8.2 of the Plan.

(b)    Death; Disability. In the event that the Participant’s incurs a Termination of Service due to the Participant’s death or Disability before a Vesting Date, to the extent any Restricted Stock Units are not then vested, all Restricted Stock Units shall immediately become fully vested on the date of such Termination of Service.

(c)    Retirement. In the event that the Participant incurs a Termination of Service due to the Participant’s Retirement before a Vesting Date, to the extent any Restricted Stock Units are not then vested, the Restricted Stock Units shall continue to vest and become vested in accordance with Section 3(a) (which shall include, but not be limited to, the Participant’s continued compliance with all Restrictive Covenants to which he or she is a party or by which he or she is bound) as if the Termination of Service had not occurred.

(d)    Termination for Cause. In the event that the Participant incurs a Termination of Service due to Cause, all Restricted Stock Units, including any Restricted Stock Units that have been vested but not yet settled, shall be immediately forfeited.

(e)    Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control, if the Restricted Stock Units are not the subject of an Assumption as provided in Section 9.3 of the Plan, Restricted Stock Units shall vest on the date of the Change in Control, provided that the Participant has not incurred a Termination of Service prior to the Change in Control. If the Restricted Stock Units are the subject of an Assumption, the Restricted Stock Units (or the awards into which they are converted) shall continue to be subject to the remaining provisions of this Section 3, but shall vest in full if the Participant incurs a Termination of Service without Cause, or for Good Reason, within 24 months after the Change in Control, provided that the Participant executes and does not revoke a release of claims against the Company and its affiliates relating to the Participant’s employment by the Company Group (and it successors) and their affiliates and the termination of such employment, in such form as the Administrator may require. For purposes of this Section 3(e), “Good Reason” (i) shall have the meaning set forth in the Participant’s employment, offer letter or similar agreement or, a change in control or severance plan applicable to the Participant, or (ii) if the Participant is not party to an employment agreement, offer letter or similar agreement or covered by a change in control or severance plan that defines Good Reason or a comparable term, shall mean (A) a material reduction in the Participant’s base compensation and target annual incentive opportunity from its level in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control (without regard to any change in the value of this Award), or (B) a requirement that the Participant relocate his or her place of work to a location that is (x) more than 50 miles from the Participant’s then-present place of work and

(y) no closer to the Participant’s then-present place of residence than the Participant’s then-present place of work; provided that the Participant notifies the Company in writing of the circumstances constituting Good Reason within 30 days after such circumstances occur, the Company fails to cure the circumstances within 30 days after receipt of such notice, and the Participant resigns within 30 days after the end of such cure period.

4.    Settlement.

(a)    Payment in Shares or Cash. The Company (or its successor) in its discretion shall settle the vested Restricted Stock Units either by (i) causing its transfer agent for Shares to register Shares in book-entry form in the name of the Participant (or, in the discretion of the Administrator, issue to the Participant a stock certificate) representing a number of Shares equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units becoming vested pursuant to Section 3, (ii) paying to the Participant an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the number of Shares described in clause (i), or (iii) by a combination of the methodologies described in clauses (i) and (ii). Such payment or transfer of Shares shall occur as soon as may be practicable after the Vesting Date, but not later than March 15th of the taxable year of the Company following the Vesting Date in the case of vesting under Sections 3(a) or 3(c), or not later than 90 days after the Participant’s death or Termination of Service by reason of Disability pursuant to Section 3(b) or qualifying Termination of Service following a Change in Control pursuant to Section 3(e).

(b)    Tax Liability and Withholding.
