Dear Carl,

On behalf of the leadership team of XPO Logistics, Inc. (the “Company”), I’m happy to offer you the position of chief financial officer, effective November 08, 2022 (the “Start Date”). I know I speak for the rest of our team when I say how pleased we are to make you this offer.

Reporting and Work Location: In this role, you’ll report directly to the Company’s chief executive officer, and you’ll be based out of the Ann Arbor, Michigan office.

Full-Time Employment: During your employment, you will be required to devote your full time and attention to your duties and responsibilities for the Company. You may not take up any outside full or part-time employment without the prior written consent of the Company. 

Your Salary and Compensation: Subject to the approval of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”), we’d like to offer you the following compensation package:

•Base Salary: You’ll receive an annualized salary of $625,000, paid on a weekly basis, less all applicable withholdings and deductions, and pro-rated for any partial period worked.

•Annual Incentive: You will be eligible to participate in the Company’s annual incentive program, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable plan document, with a bonus target of 100% of your base salary and pro-rated for the 2022 fiscal year. The actual amount of the annual bonus, if any, may vary (from 0% to 200% of your bonus target) based on the annual financial performance of the Company and performance on key strategic initiatives for the Company, which will be determined in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee.

To be eligible for the annual cash bonus, you must be employed through the date on which the annual cash bonus, if any, is paid, and you must not have given notice of your resignation to the Company on or before the date on which the annual cash bonus, if any, is paid.

•Long-term Incentive: You will be eligible for an annual long-term incentive award with a target value of $1,750,000, with the form, structure, vesting conditions and schedule determined annually by the Compensation Committee. The underlying number of stock units will generally be determined based on XPO’s closing stock price on date of grant (subject to variation from time-to-time), in the form generally as follows, with vesting to occur over a three-year schedule, or as otherwise determined annually by the Compensation Committee:

oTime-Based Restricted Stock Units (RSUs): $612,500 of target grant date value will be awarded to you in the form of RSUs, subject to your continuing employment with the Company through each applicable vest date.

oPerformance-Based Restricted Stock Units (PRSUs): $1,137,500 of target grant date value will be awarded to you in the form of PRSUs, subject to achievement of the applicable performance goals and continued service through each applicable vest date.

If approved, these awards will be granted to you following the end of the performance year, generally in March of each fiscal year. Long-term incentive awards will be reflective of your individual performance and contributions, the Company and/or business unit performance, as applicable, and the scope and expectations of your position/role in the Company and/or your business unit. As an at will employee, long-term incentives are subject to change at the sole discretion of the Company.
