In consideration of the mutual promises and undertakings set forth below and for other good and valuable consideration, WW International, Inc. (“Company”) and Donna Boyer (“Consultant”) agree to enter into this Consulting Services Agreement (“Agreement”) and expressly covenant as follows:

 

1. Term. The term of this Agreement shall be from July 14, 2025, to August 8, 2025 (“Term”), unless terminated earlier pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Either the Company or Consultant may terminate Consultant’s services under this Agreement at any time and for any reason or for no reason, and such termination shall be effective after receipt of written notice to Consultant or the Company, as applicable (the “Termination Date”). Upon termination pursuant to this Section 1, Consultant shall be entitled to receive any compensation earned through the Termination Date (in accordance with Section 6), and thereafter the Company shall have no further liability or obligation hereunder.

 

2. Consultant’s Status. Consultant represents, acknowledges and agrees that it is an established independent business experienced in offering services to the public and that it is an independent Consultant and is not an employee of the Company. No provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to create an employment relationship between Consultant and the Company. Consultant expressly warrants and agrees that it will not hold itself out as or otherwise represent to any person or entity that it is, an employee of the Company. Consultant agrees to hold the Company harmless and to indemnify the Company in full for any and all damages, claims, assessments, penalties, liabilities, charges or other losses incurred during or following the term of this Agreement, which arise out of or result from (i) any services provided hereunder; and (ii) any assertion, claim, determination or adjudication that Consultant is an employee of the Company, including, but not limited to, any claim, determination or adjudication made pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code, the New York Unemployment Insurance Law, the New York Workers’ Compensation Law, or any other federal, state or local wage, employment, insurance, labor and other laws, statutes, rulings, regulations and ordinances. If requested by Company, Consultant agrees to provide a written certification that it has complied with the requirements of all applicable taxing and other authorities regarding the payment of taxes on the compensation provided by Company for the services described on Exhibit A. Consultant further agrees to provide the Company with copies of any documents deemed necessary by the Company to demonstrate that Consultant is not an employee of the Company, including, but not limited to, certificates or other documentation indicating that Consultant maintains its own workers’ compensation insurance.

 

3. Consultant’s Services. This Agreement governs all services which Consultant may be retained to provide by or on behalf of the Company as described on Exhibit A (the “Services”). It is the parties’ intention that Consultant will use its own skill and expertise in the independent exercise of its business judgment in the performance of the Services governed by this Agreement. Consultant will cause its employees to perform Services hereunder in conformity with best practices and the highest applicable standards.

 

4. Transition Agreement and Release.

Any fees paid under this Agreement are separate from, and in addition to, the severance payments provided under the Transition Agreement.

 

5. Offices and Equipment/Expenses. Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties on a project-by-project basis, Consultant will not be reimbursed by the Company for any business expenses incurred in the rendition of Services to the Company.

have no obligation to make any payment or to provide any assistance to Consultant with respect to Consultant’s operation of its business, including, but not limited to, rental of office space and acquisition of office supplies. Consultant shall provide all equipment, materials and means of transportation required for rendering services under this Agreement. When temporarily present at the Company’s offices, Consultant may use the offices and facilities only to the extent available and not otherwise in use. The Company does not provide business cards, letterhead or other materials to its Consultants.

 

Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to waive, limit, or otherwise affect Consultant’s right to receive reimbursement for any business-related expenses incurred in the performance of duties for the Company prior to the effective date of this Agreement, provided such expenses were submitted in a timely manner and approved by the Company in accordance with its standard expense reimbursement policies.

 

6. Consultant’s Staff. Consultant may not hire or retain additional staff to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement. Consultant must request Company’s prior written consent before hiring any sub-contractor in connection with the Services.
