On October 17, 2024, Alight, Inc. (“Alight” or the “Company”), Alight Solutions LLC and David D.

Pursuant to the Amended Employment Agreement, the end of the term of Mr. Guilmette’s employment with the Company has been extended from August 19, 2025 to December 31, 2027, with automatic one-year renewal terms thereafter unless either party provides 90-days’ notice of intent not to renew (such termination date, the “Term Expiration Date”).

The Amended Employment Agreement also amends certain termination-related provisions related to Mr. Guilmette’s employment.

Under the Amended Employment Agreement, the “Severance Multiple” will equal 1, in the case of a termination occurring on or prior to December 31, 2025, and will equal 2, in the case of a termination occurring on or after January 1, 2026.
