7.Alternative Vesting Schedule			(a)Death and Disability. If Participant’s Continuous Service Status is terminated by reason of Participant’s death or Disability before the last day of the Performance Period and the last day of the Performance Period would have occurred during the 2-year period immediately following the date of such termination, the outstanding and unvested PSUs will be deemed earned and vested in the Target number of PSUs as of the date of such termination and any PSUs that do not vest upon such termination of Continuous Service Status shall terminate and be forfeited. (b)Retirement.

For purposes of this Grant Notice, “Retirement” means termination of Participant’s Continuous Service Status after the date on which the sum of Participant’s age and years of Continuous Service Status with the Company is equal to or greater than 65. (c)Qualifying Terminations Prior to a Change in Control.

8.Change in Control:			If, before the last day of the Performance Period and while Participant maintains their Continuous Service Status, a Change in Control occurs and the PSUs are not assumed or substituted by the Acquiror or continued by the Company in connection with the Change in Control, then, (notwithstanding anything in the Performance Memo to the contrary) the outstanding and unvested PSUs will be deemed earned and vested in the Target number of PSUs as the date of such Change in Control and any PSUs that do not upon such Change in Control shall terminate and be forfeited.

In addition, if an Acquiror so assumes or substitutes or the Company so continues the unvested portion of the PSUs, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, any outstanding PSUs which at the time of the Change in Control are not subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) will be deemed to be vested at the time of such Change in Control and will be settled in accordance with Section 9 of this Grant Notice.


9.Issuance Schedule:			(a) General. Subject to Sections 6 and 9(b) of this Grant Notice and Section 2 of the PSU Agreement, following at the end of the Performance Period the Committee will certify the achievement of the Performance Goals and the number of PSUs vested and earned.

Notwithstanding Section 9(a), to the extent that the PSUs are vested on the dates set forth below, the vested PSUs shall be settled in Shares as follows: (i) Termination of Continuous Service Status or Death. Within 60 days following the date of Participant’s termination of Continuous Service Status with the Company or death, any PSUs vested and deemed earned as of such termination or death shall be settled; provided, however, that if such termination of Continuous Service Status would not qualify as a “separation from service” as defined under Section 409A of the Code, and where Section 409A of the Code applies to such distribution, such vested PSUs shall be settled on the date that would have otherwise applied pursuant to Sections 9(a) or 9(b) of this Grant Notice. (ii) Change in Control. Within 30 days following a Change in Control, any PSUs vested and deemed earned as of such Change in Control shall be settled; provided, however, that if such Change in Control would not qualify as a permissible date of distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(A) of the Code, and where Section 409A of the Code applies to such distribution, such vested PSUs shall be settled on the date that would have otherwise applied pursuant to Sections 9(a) or 9(b) of this Grant Notice.

10.Tax Withholding Treatment:			As a condition to acceptance of this award of PSUs, to the greatest extent permitted under the Plan and Applicable Laws, and absent any contrary determination by the Committee, any Tax Withholding Obligations will be satisfied by the Company withholding a number of the Shares issuable upon settlement determined in accordance with Section 3 of the PSU Agreement and making payments from its own funds to the appropriate taxing authorities in an amount equal to the Tax Withholding Obligations. Any Shares so withheld shall be credited against such withholding requirements at the fair market value of such shares on the date of such withholding. Notwithstanding the forgoing, if Participant is not a Company officer or Board member that is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the Company may adopt (in its discretion, without further Committee approval) such other treatment or program for such Tax Withholding Obligations, including requiring cash payments or other forms of payment as permitted under Section 9 of the Plan (limited to maximum permitted amounts), all as consistent with Section 26 of the Plan. The Company may also enter into any other arrangement with the Participant to satisfy Participant’s Tax Withholding Obligations in accordance with Section 3 of the PSU Agreement.

•Participant acknowledges and agrees that Participant has reviewed the Plan, the Performance Memo and the PSU Agreement in their entirety, has had an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel prior to accepting the PSUs, and fully understands all provisions of the Plan, the Performance Memo, this Grant Notice and the PSU Agreement. Participant consents to the vesting schedules set forth in this Grant Notice and agrees that the applicable vesting schedules comply with (or shall be deemed to comply with) any Company obligations to provide certain vesting protections under any contract between the Company and Participant.

Pursuant to your Performance Share Unit Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) and this Performance Share Unit Agreement (the “Agreement”), Sotera Health Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has granted you (the “Participant”), as of the Date of Grant set forth in the Grant Notice, a performance-based Restricted Stock Unit award (also referred to as a “Performance Share Unit” award) covering the number of units set forth in your Grant Notice, each of which represents one Share of the Company’s Common Stock (the “PSUs”) pursuant to the Company’s 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan and any applicable sub-plan for a particular country (together, the “Plan”). Capitalized terms not explicitly defined in this Agreement but defined in the Plan or in the Grant Notice shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Plan or in the Grant Notice. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the Plan, the terms of the Plan will control.

2.Termination. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or Grant Notice, if Participant’s Continuous Service Status terminates at any time for any reason (including death or Disability), all PSUs for which vesting is no longer possible under the terms of the Grant Notice and this Agreement shall be forfeited to the Company on the date of such termination of Continuous Service Status, and all rights of Participant to such PSUs shall immediately terminate at such time. Subject to Applicable Law, in the event Participant’s Continuous Service Status is terminated by the Participant’s employer (together with the Participant’s former employer (if applicable), the “Employer”) for Cause, then Participant’s vested but unsettled PSUs will also be forfeited upon the date of such termination, and Participant will have no further rights or interests with respect to such vested PSUs. Further, unless otherwise approved by the Company, Participant’s right to vest in the PSUs will terminate as of such date and will not be extended by any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar notice period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is employed or the terms of Participant’s employment agreement, if any. To the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code, if Participant ceases to be an Employee but continues, or simultaneously commences, services as a Non-Employee Director, Participant shall be deemed to have had a termination of Continuous Service Status for purposes of this Agreement.

3.Responsibility for Taxes. As a condition to the grant, vesting, and settlement of the PSUs, Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Employer, the ultimate liability for all income tax, social security contributions (including employer’s social security contributions to the extent such amounts may be lawfully recovered from or borne by the Participant), social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items (or any equivalent or similar taxes, contributions or other relevant tax-related items in any relevant jurisdiction) or required deductions, withholdings or payments legally applicable to him or her and related to the receipt, vesting or settlement of the PSUs, the issuance, holding or subsequent sale of the Shares allocated to the PSUs, or the participation in the Plan (“Tax-Related Items”) is and remains Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. Participant further acknowledges and agrees that Participant is solely responsible for filing all relevant documentation that may be required in relation to the PSUs or any Tax-Related Items (other than filings or documentation that is the specific obligation of the Company, its Parent, Subsidiaries or Affiliates (the “Company Group”) pursuant to Applicable Laws), such as, but not limited to, personal income tax returns or reporting statements in relation to the receipt, vesting or settlement of the PSUs, the issuance of the Shares allocated to the PSUs, the holding of Shares or any bank or brokerage account, the subsequent sale of Shares, and the receipt of any dividends.

limited to, the receipt, vesting or settlement of the PSUs, the issuance, holding or subsequent sale of the Shares allocated to the PSUs and the receipt of any dividends; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the PSUs to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax- Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Participant also understands that Applicable Laws may require varying PSU or Share valuation methods for purposes of calculating Tax- Related Items, and the Company assumes no responsibility or liability in relation to any such valuation or for any calculation or reporting of income or Tax- Related Items that may be required of Participant under Applicable Laws.

By entering into this Agreement, Participant agrees to indemnify the Company, the Employer and any relevant Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate, against all and any liability for any taxes or Tax-Related Items which may arise in respect of or in connection with the PSUs (or, for the avoidance of doubt, any PSUs granted or provided to Participant by way of rollover, assumption or replacement of the PSUs) or the Shares (or, for the avoidance of doubt, other shares or securities) issued or transferred pursuant to the vesting of the PSUs (or, for the avoidance of doubt, any PSUs granted or provided to Participant by way of rollover, assumption or replacement of the PSUs).

Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Participant agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax- Related Items. In this regard, pursuant to this Agreement and subject to the Grant Notice and Applicable Laws, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy Participant’s Tax Withholding Obligations by (i) withholding or deducting from Participant’s wages or other compensation paid to Participant by the Company or the Employer, (ii) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired pursuant to the PSUs either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization) without further consent, (iii) withholding Shares that would otherwise be issued upon settlement of the PSUs or (iv) such other method as determined by the Company.

Depending on the method of satisfying the Tax Withholding Obligations, the Company and/or the Employer may pay, withhold or account for such Tax Withholding Obligations by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable tax or withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case Participant will (depending on the laws of the relevant jurisdiction) receive a refund of any over-withheld or over- paid amount in cash or otherwise be able to claim relief in respect of any such over- withheld or over-paid amount, and will in any event have no entitlement to the Share equivalent.

Participant agrees to pay to the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax Withholding Obligations that the Company or the Employer may be required to pay, withhold or account for as a result of Participant’s receipt, vesting or settlement of the PSUs, the issuance or holding of the Shares allocated to the PSUs or the participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares if Participant fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax Withholding Obligations.

Participant understands that Participant may suffer adverse tax consequences as a result of Participant’s receipt of the PSUs, the vesting and/or settlement of the PSUs, the issuance or holding of Shares allocated to the PSUs and/or the disposition of such Shares. Participant represents that Participant has consulted any tax consultants Participant deems advisable in connection with the receipt of the PSUs, the vesting and/or settlement of the PSUs, the issuance or holding of Shares allocated to the PSUs and/or the disposition of such Shares and that Participant is not relying on the Company (or the Employer) for any tax advice.

(h)no entity in the Company Group shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between Participant’s local currency and the United States Dollar or the selection by the Company or any member of the Company Group in its sole discretion of an applicable foreign exchange rate that may affect the value of the PSUs (or the calculation of income or Tax-Related Items thereunder) or of any amounts due to Participant pursuant to the settlement of the PSUs or the subsequent sale of the Shares allocated to the PSUs.

5.Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. All payments made and benefits provided under this Agreement are intended to be exempt from or comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code so that none of the payments or benefits will be subject to the adverse tax penalties imposed under Section 409A. Each tranche of PSUs that vests, or is scheduled to vest, pursuant to the Grant Notice shall be designated as a “separate payment” for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, if the vesting of all or a portion of any unvested PSUs is accelerated in connection with the Participant’s termination of Continuous Service Status (provided that such termination is a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, as determined by the Company), other than due to death, and if both (a) the Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code at the time of such termination of Continuous Service Status, and (b) the payment of such accelerated PSUs would result in the imposition of additional tax under Section 409A of the Code if paid to the Participant within the 6 month period following the Participant’s termination of Continuous Service Status, then the payment of such accelerated PSUs will not be made until the date that is 6 months and 1 day following the date of the Participant’s termination of Continuous Service Status, unless the Participant dies following such Participant’s termination of Continuous Service Status, in which case, the PSUs will be paid in Shares to the Participant’s estate as soon as practicable following Participant’s death. In no event will the Company reimburse Participant for any taxes or other penalties that may be imposed on Participant as a result of Section 409A and, by accepting the PSUs, Participant hereby indemnifies the Company for any liability that arises as a result of Section 409A. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, to the extent the period for
