Dear ▇▇▇▇▇:

This Letter Agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) will confirm our understanding regarding your voluntary retirement from your current position as Senior Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer with ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Electric Co., a Missouri corporation. We thank you for your 31+ years of service and commitment to Emerson!

Throughout this Letter Agreement, the term “Emerson” or the “Company” means ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Electric Co. together with any and all other entities owned directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Electric Co. Your retirement and the terms of this Letter Agreement are effective as of September 30, 2023 (the “Retirement Date”).

Additionally, you agree to resign from your current position effective May 10, 2023, and will remain a full-time employee through your Retirement Date in the role of “Senior Advisor to the CEO” to assist in the orderly transition of your duties, and other requested projects.

In consideration of good and valuable consideration provided to you pursuant to this Letter Agreement, you agree as follows:

1. NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT

You agree that during your employment you have received and had access to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ trade secrets and confidential and proprietary information (“Confidential Information”), which includes or concerns, but is not limited to, attorney/client communications, global strategic communications, information pertaining to strategic planning or other strategy, mergers and acquisitions, corporate technology, intellectual property, customers, pricing, business methods and operations, business policies, procedures, practices and techniques, legal opinions and legal matters, research or development projects or results, sales, finances, products, suppliers, personnel performance and compensation, plans for future development, marketing practices, market participation, market studies, and financial forecasts and budgeting. You agree that disclosure of such Confidential Information would be detrimental to Emerson and agree that at no time following termination of your employment with Emerson will you directly or indirectly disclose or cause the disclosure of any Confidential Information to any person, firm, corporation, or entity, no matter what the purpose.

▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇

The non-disclosure obligations set forth above shall not apply to the extent it is necessary for you to: report income to taxing authorities; communicate with your attorneys or agents to obtain legal and/or financial planning advice after any such attorneys or agents bind themselves in writing to the same non-disclosure obligations as set forth above; or, to respond to any lawfully issued subpoena or order of a court of competent jurisdiction or legitimate discovery request pursuant to state or federal rules of civil procedure. If any such subpoena, order of court or discovery request is received, you agree to send to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ General Counsel no later than two (2) days after receipt via email or hand-delivery.

You agree also to deliver to the office of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ General Counsel within a three (3) day period following the Retirement Date all such Confidential Information, any other property of Emerson, and all copies thereof in your possession or control, whether in handwritten, typed, printed, graphic or electronic form (whether stored on Emerson-owned or personally owned or used devices, including but not limited to personal computers, tablets, smart phones, memory sticks, thumb drives, or on-site or off-site storage locations). If after such three (3) day period you determine that you have any Confidential Information or other property of Emerson in your possession or control, you shall immediately deliver such Confidential Information or property to the office of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ General Counsel. You further agree to deliver your signed certification of compliance with the provisions of this paragraph promptly upon request made to you in writing by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ General Counsel.

2. NON-DISPARAGEMENT AGREEMENT

You will not individually or through third parties make any public or private statement with respect to any aspect of your employment with Emerson. If inquiry is made by anyone regarding your employment, or retirement from, Emerson, you agree to state only, “I personally decided to retire from Emerson effective September 30, 2023, to spend more time with my family, and pursue other interests. I have enjoyed my many years with Emerson, and I wish it all the best. Emerson is a tremendous company and a great place to work.”

You also agree that you will not, directly, or indirectly, disparage or make or cause to be made, any comments, statements, or communications of any sort to anyone—whether true or false—that may reasonably be considered to be derogatory or detrimental to Emerson or any Released Parties (as defined in the Release Agreement attached as Exhibit A), their reputations, or their services. You acknowledge that Emerson has a good reputation locally, nationally, and internationally, and you will take no action or engage in any conduct that could injure or diminish that good reputation.

3. NON-COMPETITION AND NON-SOLICITATION AGREEMENTS

You also agree that you will not, without prior written consent from both ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Chief Executive Officer and General Counsel, directly or indirectly for a period of four (4) years from your Retirement Date (“Restricted Period”):

A. enter the employ of, provide consulting services to, assist, or have any financial interest in, any person, firm, corporation, or other entity engaged in business activities anywhere in the world that, directly or indirectly competes with the businesses of Emerson as conducted on the date of this Letter Agreement or as contemplated on the date hereof to be developed during the Restricted Period;

▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇

B. acquire in any manner any investment in, or provide services to in any capacity, any equity fund, hedge fund, or other investment vehicle, however structured, that either directly or indirectly or through portfolio company investments or otherwise competes with the businesses of Emerson as conducted on the date hereof or as contemplated on the date hereof to be developed during the Restrictive Period;

C. assist any third party in connection with any acquisition of any business of Emerson, whether through an acquisition of stock, assets, or otherwise, or in the sale of any business to Emerson;

F. divert, take any action to induce, or encourage a customer of Emerson to reduce or cease doing business with Emerson;

▇. engage in any other action that might undermine the business interests of Emerson.

The foregoing shall not restrict you from owning not more than five (5) percent of the securities of any competitor of Emerson that is listed on any national securities exchange, traded over the counter, or that is otherwise available for investment by the general public as long as you have no relationship with the issuer of such securities or any affiliate thereof, except as an investor.

4. REASONABLENESS ENFORCEABILITY AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

You agree that the restrictions contained in Paragraph 3, including those on time and scope, are reasonable for the protection of Emerson in light of your in-depth knowledge of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ global business, your present and prior positions with Emerson, and your access to Confidential Information relating to all of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ businesses. You also affirm your agreement to comply with all existing non-competition, invention disclosure and assignment, non-disclosure, and non-solicitation obligations you have with Emerson, including specifically your obligations under the Emerson Incentive Shares plans and related performance shares and restricted stock award agreements, and Emerson stock option plans and related stock option agreements, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ non-qualified supplemental executive retirement plan. You agree that your obligations set forth in this Letter Agreement are in addition to and do not invalidate or supersede your obligations under other plans, agreements, or contracts unless in direct conflict, in which case the terms of this Letter Agreement shall prevail.

You agree and acknowledge that Emerson would not enter into this Letter Agreement and provide the valuable consideration offered to you herein but for the restrictions in this Letter Agreement. You agree that a violation of this Letter Agreement and the other agreements referenced in this Section 4 would result in irreparable injury to Emerson and that, in the event of a violation or a reasonably perceived threatened violation of any of the restrictions, Emerson shall be entitled to immediate, preliminary, and permanent injunctive relief which is in addition to any other remedies to which Emerson may be entitled. You further agree to reimburse Emerson for all costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees Emerson incurs to seek enforcement of any provision contained herein, whether or not litigation is commenced.

You agree that any breach of this Letter Agreement will result in immediate forfeiture by you of all payments to be made or benefits provided to you under this Letter Agreement. You also agree as liquidated damages for any such breach to repay to Emerson one-half of the economic value of all benefits provided to you under this Letter Agreement prior to the date of breach. You agree that this liquidated damage provision and other remedies are necessary because substantial damage will accrue to Emerson as the result of a breach, and the amount of damages attributable to such breach may be uncertain and difficult to calculate. Payment of liquidated damages shall in no way affect the settlement and release of claims by you, nor shall payment of liquidated damages limit the enforceability of any clause in this Letter Agreement, or any other agreement referenced in this Section 4 or the ability of Emerson to seek damages and any other relief from you as provided under applicable law or any agreement between you and Emerson.

5. RELEASE AND DISCHARGE

You will release and discharge Emerson and its respective directors, officers, employees, and agents from any and all claims or liability of whatever nature and will execute the Release Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A. If the Release Agreement attached as Exhibit A is not executed by you, this Letter Agreement shall be null and void. You also agree that no benefits or other compensation described in this Letter Agreement (other than the payment of your base salary described in Section 8.A) hereof, shall be paid or provided to you until expiration of the seven (7) day revocation period set forth in Paragraph 3(e) of the Release Agreement.

6. RESIGNATIONS

You agree to execute the Officer Resignation form attached hereto as Exhibit B.

7. CLAWBACK

You agree that you will remain subject to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Clawback Policy, which provides: “If the Board determines that an executive officer has engaged in intentional misconduct that caused or partially caused a material restatement of the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the Board may, to the extent permitted by law and to the extent it determines that it is in the Company’s best interests to do so, require reimbursement to the Company of, or reduce or cancel, that portion of annual incentive or any long-term incentive compensation paid or credited to such executive officer on or after February 1, 2015 that would not have been paid or credited had the consolidated financial statements that are the subject of such restatement been correctly stated. For purposes of this policy, the term “executive officer” means any officer of the Company who is required to file reports pursuant to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.”

8. COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS

Subject to and conditioned upon your compliance with your obligations and covenants in this Letter Agreement and any other agreement entered into between you and Emerson, and the professional completion of your duties as a full-time employee through your Retirement Date, you will receive the compensation and benefits outlined below. The compensation and benefits set forth herein are in lieu of and replace any other compensation or benefits to which you may be entitled from Emerson:

A. You will remain on the Emerson payroll and receive your current base salary through your Retirement Date.

B. You will remain eligible to participate in the Fiscal 2023 Annual Cash Incentive Program under the same terms and conditions as other participants in the Program. We will recommend to the Compensation Committee that you receive a payment under the Program for Fiscal 2023, consistent with the normal terms and conditions of the Program.

C. Your executive perquisites, including leased automobile, executive physical and financial tax planning, will end on the Retirement Date, unless noted otherwise below:

D. The Company will recommend to the Compensation Committee that you remain eligible to receive payment of your outstanding Performance Shares awards following your Retirement Date, as set forth below, subject to the applicable terms of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Incentive Shares Plans and the applicable Performance Shares Program which apply to all participants (excluding continued employment), including achievement of the performance objectives under each Program, and based on the actual payout percentage applicable to each Program, and at the time provided therefor under the respective programs.

▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to the terms and conditions of the qualified all-employee ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Electric Co. Retirement Plan, you are eligible to commence your monthly pension benefits accrued under such plan the month following your Retirement Date.

Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Electric Co. Pension Restoration Plan (the “Plan”) (the Plan covers the benefits you would have been eligible to receive under the aforesaid all-employee Retirement Plan were it not for the compensation limitations imposed under the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”)), participants are normally eligible to commence their monthly pension benefits accrued under the Plan following retirement and attainment of age 65.

▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇

However, payment of your accrued benefits under the Plan are subject to Section 409A of the Code and will be deferred to the extent required by Code Section 409A. Any benefits which are deferred under Code Section 409A, will be paid to you in a lump-sum retroactive payment back to the month you would have otherwise been eligible to receive such payment, if not for the deferral requirements of Code Section 409A. We anticipate you will be eligible to commence this benefit six (6) months following your Retirement Date, with a retroactive benefit payment back to the month following your Retirement Date, and monthly thereafter in accordance with your payment elections.

Payments of your pension benefits under each of the aforesaid plans will be paid monthly in the manner and times set forth in such plans, and in accordance with your payment election forms you will be required to submit prior to commencing and such benefit payment.

F. You will be eligible to receive distributions from your ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Electric Co. Employee Savings Investment Plan (401(k) plan) to the extent permitted under the terms of the plan and applicable law.

You will be eligible to receive distributions under the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Electric Co. Savings Investment Restoration Plan (the “Plan”) (non-qualified 401(k) plan), subject to the provisions of the Plan and your previously filed distribution election form thereunder. Participant distributions under the Plan normally begin in January following the calendar year of their retirement.

However, payment of your distributions under the Plan are subject to Section 409A of the Code and will be deferred to the extent required by Code Section 409A. We anticipate you will be eligible to commence this benefit six (6) months following your Retirement Date. Our records indicate you elected annual installments of your account, and we anticipate this first installment will be made in April 2024 (six-months following your Retirement Date). The remaining installments will be made in January of the succeeding calendar years thereafter.

G. All payments and other benefits provided for under this Letter Agreement, will be subject to income tax and other withholdings as required by law at the time of such payment.

H. After your Retirement Date you will not be permitted to continue participating in any Emerson benefit programs including, but not limited to, medical, dental, vision, or life insurance, unless otherwise required by law.

If you have any questions on your rights and responsibilities regarding any of the aforementioned programs/coverages, please contact your local Human Resources office. It is your personal responsibility to ensure that you have adequate coverages in place following the Retirement Date.
