(For Phantom Stock Awarded Under Long-Term Incentive Program)
This Award Notice and Agreement (this “Agreement”) is between Insperity, Inc. (the “Company”) and (the “Grantee”), an employee of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, regarding an award (this “Award”) of shares (the “Target Amount”) of Phantom Stock (as defined in the Insperity, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Program, as amended and restated effective January 29, 2024 (the “LTIP”), adopted under the Insperity, Inc. Incentive Plan, as amended and restated effective May 22, 2023 (the “Incentive Plan”)), awarded to the Grantee on (the “Grant Date”), subject to the following terms and conditions:
1. Relationship to LTIP. This Award is granted under the Incentive Plan pursuant to an award under the LTIP and is subject to all of the terms, conditions and provisions of, and administrative interpretations under, the Incentive Plan and the LTIP, if any, which have been adopted by the Committee thereunder. Any question of interpretation arising under this Agreement shall be determined by the Committee and its determinations shall be final and conclusive upon all parties in interest. Except as defined herein, capitalized terms shall have the same meanings ascribed to them under the LTIP, however, in the absence thereof, capitalized terms herein shall have the same meanings ascribed to them under the Incentive Plan.
2. Performance Determination; Vesting; Change in Control.
(a) Performance Determination. The Grantee’s Final Award, if any, shall be equal to the number of shares of Phantom Stock resulting from the Committee’s determination of the achievement of the Performance Goal(s) over the Performance Period(s) specified on Schedule A attached hereto.
(b) Vesting. Subject to Sections 2(c), 3 and 4 below, the Grantee shall become vested in the Grantee’s Final Award upon the final Valuation Date of the last Performance Period applicable to this Award (the “Final Valuation Date”), provided that the Grantee has been in continuous Employment since the Grant Date through the Final Valuation Date.
(c) Change in Control. The Award granted under this Agreement will not partially or fully vest or otherwise accelerate vesting solely as the result of a Change in Control. Upon a Change in Control after the Grant Date and prior to the Final Valuation Date, the Final Award shall be determined by the Committee based on (i) actual performance results for any Performance Period that was completed on or prior to the date of the Change in Control and (ii) the greater of Target Level or actual performance (if measurable) for the Performance Period during which the Change in Control occurs and any Performance Period that was scheduled to begin after the date of the Change in Control (collectively, the “Change in Control Value”). Any Final Award determined pursuant to this Section 2(c) shall be paid at the time indicated in Section 5 and the Grantee shall become vested in the Change in Control Value only if continuously employed through the date indicated in Section 5, except in the event of a Qualifying Termination. However, in the event of a Change in Control as defined solely under subsection (c) of the definition of Change in Control under section 2 of the Incentive Plan (a “Subsection (c) Change in Control”), if the successor entity, or a parent of the successor entity, has not agreed to assume, replace or substitute this Award with another award of equivalent or greater value, and on substantially similar or more favorable terms, then the Grantee shall vest in the Final Award as of the Subsection (c) Change in Control and the Change in Control Value shall be paid within seventy-four (74) days of the Subsection (c) Change in Control.

3. Qualifying Termination; Death; Disability; Retirement.
(a) Qualifying Termination. Notwithstanding Section 2(b) above, if the Grantee remains in continuous Employment from the Grant Date through the date of the Grantee’s Qualifying Termination that occurs prior to vesting under Section 2(c), then, upon the date of the Grantee’s Qualifying Termination, the Grantee shall vest in a Final Award equal to the Change in Control Value. Any Final Award determined pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall be payable to the Grantee no later than seventy-four (74) days after the date of the Grantee’s Qualifying Termination, subject to delay pursuant to Article X.F of the LTIP, if applicable. Any vesting by reason of a Qualifying Termination is subject to execution and delivery to the Company of an effective Waiver and Release Agreement.
(b) Good Reason. Notwithstanding the definition in the LTIP program document, for purposes of this Agreement, Good Reason means a Grantee terminates his or her Employment due to one of the following actions by his or her Employer (without written consent of the Grantee): (i) a material diminution in the Grantee’s title, position, authority, duties or responsibilities from those applicable to Grantee preceding a Change in Control; (ii) a change in the geographic location at which the Grantee must perform services, which shall mean requiring the Grantee to be permanently based more than fifty (50) miles from the Grantee’s principal Employer location; (iii) a material diminution in the Grantee’s Base Salary other than as part of an across-the-board reduction applicable to all of the Company’s officers who participate in the Program of less than 10%; or (iv) a material diminution in the Grantee’s bonus opportunity, incentive compensation or perquisites, if inconsistent with other executives of the Company with similar levels of authority, duties or responsibilities.
(c) Death or Disability. Notwithstanding Section 2 above, if the Grantee remains in continuous Employment from the Grant Date through the date of the Grantee’s death or Disability that occurs prior to the Final Valuation Date, then the Grantee shall be entitled to a Final Award based on actual achievement of the Performance Goal(s) during the Performance Period(s) pro-rated by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of days of the Grantee’s Employment from the Grant Date through the date of the Grantee’s death or Disability, as applicable, and the denominator of which shall be the total number of days encompassing the first day of the first Performance Period and the last day of the last Performance Period applicable to the Award (if multiple Performance Periods). In the event of a Change in Control, if the Grantee remains in continuous Employment from the Grant Date through the Grantee’s death or Disability occurring after a Change in Control, the Grantee shall be entitled to a pro-rata portion, as calculated under this Section 3(c), of the Change in Control Value. Any vesting by reason of Disability under this section is subject to execution and delivery to the Company of an effective Waiver and Release Agreement.
(d) Retirement. Notwithstanding Section 2 above, if the Grantee remains in continuous Employment from the Grant Date through the date of the Grantee’s Retirement that occurs prior to the Final Valuation Date, then the following shall apply:
(i) With respect to any Performance Period which begins on or after the date of the Grantee’s Retirement, the shares of Phantom Stock related to such Performance Period shall be forfeited;
(ii) With respect to any Performance Period which ends prior to the date of the Grantee’s Retirement, the shares of Phantom Stock related to such Performance Period shall be paid based upon actual achievement of the Performance Goal and settled in accordance with Section 5; and

(iii) With respect to any other Performance Period that begins before and ends after the date of the Grantee’s Retirement, the Grantee shall be entitled to shares of Phantom Stock based upon actual achievement of the Performance Goal during such Performance Period pro-rated by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of days of the Grantee’s Employment from the first day of such Performance Period through the date of the Grantee’s Retirement and the denominator of which shall be the total number of days encompassing the first day of such Performance Period and the last day of such Performance Period applicable to the Award, which shall be settled in accordance with Section 5.
(iv) For purposes of this Award, “Retirement” means the Grantee’s voluntary termination of Employment other than for Good Reason (and other than an involuntary termination by the Company for Cause), satisfying the Qualified Retirement Policy and all of the following conditions:
a. the Grantee submits a voluntary request for retirement that satisfies applicable notice requirements and is accepted by the Company or Subsidiary;
b. the Grantee’s Employment terminates on or after the date that the Grantee has attained sixty-two (62) years of age and has at least fifteen (15) years of continuous Employment as of the termination date;
c. the Grantee’s Employment terminates on or after the date that is six (6) months after the Grant Date; and
d. the Grantee executes an effective Waiver and Release Agreement.
(e) Waiver and Release Agreement. For purposes of this Award, “Waiver and Release Agreement” means the legal document in a form approved by the Company, in which a Grantee, in exchange for the benefits provided under Section 3, agrees to be subject to the repayment conditions of the Waiver and Release Agreement and releases the Company and other related parties, from liability and damages arising from or in connection with the Grantee’s termination of Employment by reason of Retirement, Disability or Qualifying Termination.

4. Forfeiture of Award. If the Grantee’s Employment terminates other than by reason of death, Disability, Qualifying Termination or Retirement prior to the Final Valuation Date, this Award shall be forfeited immediately after the Grantee’s termination of Employment.

LTIP Jan 2024

discretionary authority to determine when a ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Employment terminates for all purposes under this Agreement, the LTIP and the Incentive Plan. If a Grantee’s Employment terminates due to Retirement, Disability, or Qualifying Termination, all unvested portions of this Award as of the Grantee’s termination date shall expire on the date that Grantee fails to deliver a timely, effective and irrevocable Waiver and Release Agreement.
5. Settlement of Final Award. Settlement of the Grantee’s Final Award, if any, as determined pursuant to Section 2, Section 3(c) or Section 3(d) shall be made in the form of shares of Common Stock on the date that is seventy-four (74) days after the end of the last originally scheduled and untruncated Performance Period applicable to the Award.

7. Limitation on Delivery of Shares. The Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock if counsel to the Company determines that such sale or delivery would violate any applicable law or any rule or regulation of any governmental authority or any rule or regulation of, or agreement of the Company with, any national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system upon which the Common Stock is listed or quoted. In no event shall the Company be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the delivery of shares of Common Stock to comply with any such law, rule, regulation or agreement.

For purposes of this Section 18, the term “Company” means the Company and its Subsidiaries.
(a) Definitions. As used in this Section 18, the following terms shall have the following meanings:
(i) “Non-Solicit Period” means the period during which Grantee is employed by the Company and extending until twenty-four (24) months following ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s termination of Employment.
(ii) “Proprietary Information” includes all confidential or proprietary scientific or technical information, data, formulas and related concepts, business plans (both current and under development), client lists, promotion and marketing programs, trade secrets, or any other confidential or proprietary business information relating to the business of the Company, whether in written or electronic form of writings, correspondence, notes, drafts, records, maps, invoices, technical and business logs, policies, computer programs, disks or otherwise. Proprietary Information does not include information that is or becomes publicly known through lawful means.
(b) Confidential Treatment. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ acknowledges and agrees that he or she has acquired, and will in the future acquire as a result of his or her Employment or otherwise, Proprietary Information of the Company which is of a confidential or trade secret nature, and all of which has a great value to the Company and is a substantial basis and foundation upon which
LTIP Jan 2024
6
the Company’s business is predicated. Accordingly, other than in the legitimate performance of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s job duties, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees:
(i) to regard and preserve as confidential at all times all Proprietary Information;
(ii) to refrain from publishing or disclosing any part of the Proprietary Information and from using, copying or duplicating it in any way by any means whatsoever; and
(iii) not to use on ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s own behalf or on behalf of any third party or to disclose the Proprietary Information to any person or entity without the prior written consent of the Company.
(c) Property of the Company. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ acknowledges that all Proprietary Information and other property of the Company which Grantee accumulates during ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Employment are the exclusive property of the Company. Upon the termination of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Employment, or at any time upon the Company’s request, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall surrender and deliver to the Company (and not keep, recreate or furnish to any third party) any and all work papers, reports, manuals, documents and the like (including all originals and copies thereof) in ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s possession which contain Proprietary Information relating to the business, prospects or plans of the Company. Further, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to search for and delete all Company information, including Proprietary Information, from his or her computer, smartphone, tablet, or any other personal electronic storage devices, other than payroll information or other financial information that Grantee may need for his or her tax filings, and, upon request, certify to the Company that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has completed this search and deletion process.
(d) Cooperation. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees that, following any termination of his or her Employment, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will not disclose or cause to be disclosed any Proprietary Information, unless (in any such case) required by court order. Pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Grantee shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of any Proprietary Information that (1) is made (A) in confidence to a Federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney and (B) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law or (2) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. The Company may seek the assistance, cooperation or testimony of Grantee following any such termination in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding arising out of matters within the knowledge of Grantee and related to his or her Employment, and in such instance, Grantee shall provide such assistance, cooperation or testimony and the Company shall pay Grantee’s reasonable costs and expenses in connection therewith.
(e) Non-Solicitation.
i. Grantee and the Company agree to the non-solicitation provisions of this Section 18(e): (1) in consideration for the Proprietary Information provided by the Company to Grantee; and (2) to protect the Proprietary Information of the Company disclosed or entrusted to Grantee by the Company or created or developed by Grantee for the Company, the business goodwill of the Company developed through the efforts of Grantee and the business opportunities disclosed or entrusted to Grantee by the Company.
ii. Grantee expressly covenants and agrees that, during the Non-Solicit Period, Grantee will not: (1) engage or employ, or solicit or contact with a view to the engagement or employment of, any person who is an officer or
LTIP Jan 2024
7
employee of the Company; or (2) canvass, solicit, approach or entice away or cause to be canvassed, solicited, approached or enticed away from the Company any person who or which is or was a customer of the Company, during the prior two years of Grantee’s Employment, and either (x) about which ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ received Proprietary Information or (y) with which Grantee had contact or dealings on behalf of the Company.
iii. Grantee expressly recognizes that he or she is a key employee and an important member of management who will be provided with access to Proprietary Information and trade secrets as part of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Employment and that the restrictive covenants set forth in this Section 18 are reasonable and necessary in light of Grantee’s position and access to the Proprietary Information.
(f) Relief. Grantee and the Company agree and acknowledge that the limitations as to time and scope of activity to be restrained as set forth in this Section 16 are reasonable and do not impose any greater restraint than is necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Company. Grantee and the Company also acknowledge that money damages would not be sufficient remedy for any breach of this Section 18 by Grantee, and the Company shall be entitled to enforce the provisions of this Section 18 by terminating any unvested Phantom Stock, taking action to recoup the value of any Phantom Stock already settled and paid to Grantee, and to specific performance and injunctive relief as remedies for such breach or any threatened breach. Such remedies shall not be deemed the exclusive remedies for a breach of this Section 18 but shall be in addition to all remedies available at law or in equity, including the recovery of damages from Grantee and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s agents. However, if it is determined that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has not committed a breach of this Section 18, then the Company shall resume vesting of the Phantom Stock due under this Agreement and pay to Grantee all Phantom Stock that would have vested but had been suspended pending such determination.
(g) Reformation. The Company and Grantee agree that the foregoing restrictions are reasonable under the circumstances and that any breach of the covenants contained in this Section 18 would cause irreparable injury to the Company. Grantee expressly represents that enforcement of the restrictive covenants set forth in this Section 18 will not impose an undue hardship upon Grantee or any person or entity affiliated with Grantee. Further, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ acknowledges that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s skills are such that Grantee can be gainfully employed and that the restrictive covenants will not prevent Grantee from earning a living. Nevertheless, if any of the aforesaid restrictions are found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unreasonable, or overly broad as to time, or otherwise unenforceable, the parties intend for the restrictions herein set forth to be modified by the court making such determination so as to be reasonable and enforceable and, as so modified, to be fully enforced.
(h) Protected Disclosures. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement prohibits Grantee from reporting possible violations of law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, including the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the U.S. Congress, and any agency Inspector General, or making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulation. Nothing in this Agreement limits ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s ability to communicate with any government agencies or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any government agency, including providing documents or other information, without notice to the Company. Additionally, Grantee and the Company acknowledge and agree that Grantee does not need the prior authorization of the Company to make any such reports or disclosures and Grantee is not required to notify the Company or any of its affiliates that Grantee has made such reports or disclosures.
