2008 INCENTIVE PLAN

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT – CAPITAL GAIN AWARD

THIS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), made as of this [___] day of [_______], 2025 (the “Grant Date”), by and between Phibro Animal Health Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and [__________] (the “Grantee”), sets forth the terms and conditions of an Award granted to the Grantee under the Phibro Animal Health Corporation 2008 Incentive Plan and its Sub-Plan for Israeli Participants (the “Plan”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

Pursuant to the Plan, the Company desires to grant to the Grantee, and the Grantee desires to accept, the Restricted Stock Units (the “RSUs”), upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Plan. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Plan.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.Grant. The Company hereby grants [_______] RSUs to the Grantee as of the Grant Date. Except as otherwise provided by the Plan, the Grantee agrees and understands that nothing contained in this Agreement provides, or is intended to provide, the Grantee with any protection against potential future dilution of the Grantee’s interest in the Company for any reason, and no adjustments shall be made for dividends in cash or other property, distributions or other rights in respect of the shares of Stock underlying the RSUs, except as otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan or this Agreement.  The RSUs are intended to be a Capital Gain Award for Israeli tax purposes.
2.Vesting. All of the RSUs shall be unvested at issuance and, subject to the provisions of Section 3 hereof or another event provided for by the Board or the Committee, shall vest in substantially equal installments on each of the first three (3) anniversaries of the Grant Date (each such date, or such earlier date set forth in Section 3, a “Vesting Date”) (such that 100% of the RSUs shall become fully vested three (3) years from the Grant Date), provided that the Grantee’s employment with the Company has not been terminated for any reason prior to each such Vesting Date, and shall be settled pursuant to Section 4 hereof.  
3.Termination of Employment; Change in Control; Forfeiture.
(a)Death and Disability. In the event the Grantee’s employment is terminated due to the Grantee’s death or Disability, any unvested portion of the RSUs will accelerate and vest in full on the date of the Grantee’s termination of employment due to death or Disability and shall be settled in accordance with Section 4 hereof.
(b)Change in Control. In the event that this Agreement is converted, assumed, substituted, continued or replaced by a successor or surviving corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, in connection with a Change in Control, then the RSUs granted pursuant to this Agreement shall continue to vest in the ordinary course upon and following such Change in Control, provided

Page 1 of 9


that all unvested RSUs granted pursuant to this Agreement shall immediately vest in the event of a Qualifying Termination that occurs during the twelve (12)-month period following such Change in Control, subject to the Release Requirement and continued compliance with all restrictive covenants, and shall be settled in accordance with Section 4 hereof. In the event that this Agreement is not converted, assumed, substituted, continued or replaced by a successor or surviving corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, in connection with a Change in Control, then immediately prior to the effective date of such Change in Control, the RSUs granted pursuant to this Agreement shall vest automatically in full, subject to the Release Requirement, the Grantee’s continued compliance with all restrictive covenants and the Grantee’s continued service as an employee through the consummation of such Change in Control, and shall be settled in accordance with Section 4 hereof.
(c)Forfeiture. Subject to the Board’s or Committee’s discretion to accelerate vesting hereunder, all unvested RSUs granted pursuant to this Agreement shall be immediately forfeited upon the Grantee’s termination of employment for any reason other than as set forth in this Section 3.
4.Delivery of Shares. Within thirty (30) days following the vesting of the RSUs (or, if later and as applicable, within ten (10) days following the fulfillment of the Release Requirement), the Grantee shall receive the number of shares of Stock that correspond to the number of RSUs that have become vested on the applicable Vesting Date.  The issuance of shares of Stock may be effected by crediting shares in an account established on the Grantee’s behalf with a brokerage firm engaged by the Company. The shares of Stock shall be issued to or controlled by the Trustee under a supervisory trustee arrangement for the Grantee's benefit as required under Section 102 and any specific approval obtained by the Company from the ITA, at least until the end of the Holding Period, or any other period determined under the Ordinance as now in effect or as hereafter amended or by the ITA. Subject to the conclusion of the Holding Period and any further period included herein, shares of Stock will be held or controlled by the Trustee until their sale, unless released prior to such date, subject to the receipt by the Trustee of an acknowledgment from the ITA that all applicable taxes were paid pursuant to the Ordinance and Section 102.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a sale or release occurs prior to the conclusion of the Holding Period, the tax consequences under Section 102 shall apply to and shall be borne solely by the Grantee, as further set forth in the Sub-Plan for Israeli Participants.
5.Dividends; Rights as Stockholder.  Cash dividends on the number of shares of Stock issuable hereunder shall be credited to a dividend book entry account on behalf of the Grantee with respect to each share of Stock issuable in respect of an RSU granted to the Grantee that has become vested prior to the record date for such dividend, provided that such cash dividends shall not be deemed to be reinvested in shares of Stock and shall be held uninvested and without interest and paid in cash at the same time that the shares of Stock underlying the RSUs are delivered to the Grantee in accordance with the provisions hereof.  Stock dividends on shares of Stock shall be credited to a dividend book entry account on behalf of the Grantee with respect to each share of Stock issuable in respect of an RSU granted to the Grantee that has become vested prior to the record date for such dividend, provided that such stock dividends shall be paid in shares of Stock at the same time that the shares of Stock underlying the RSUs are delivered to the Grantee in accordance with the provisions hereof.  Except as otherwise provided herein, the Grantee shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Stock covered by any RSU unless and

Page 2 of 9


until the Grantee has become the holder of record of such shares. Such credited Stock dividends may be considered as a new award for the purpose of Section 102 including for the purpose of tax calculation and the Holding Period.
6.Non-Transferability.  No portion of the RSUs may be sold, assigned, transferred, encumbered, hypothecated or pledged by the Grantee, other than to the Company as a result of forfeiture of the RSUs as provided herein or for customary estate planning purposes or otherwise by will or pursuant to applicable laws of descent and distribution.
7.Governing Law.  All questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the choice of law principles thereof.
8.Withholding of Tax.  The Grantee agrees and acknowledges that the Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require the Grantee to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state, local and foreign taxes of any kind (including, but not limited to, the Grantee’s FICA and SDI obligations) which the Company, in its sole discretion, deems necessary to be withheld or remitted to comply with the Code and/or any other applicable law, rule or regulation with respect to the RSUs, and if the withholding requirement cannot be satisfied, the Company may otherwise refuse to issue or transfer any shares of Stock otherwise required to be issued pursuant to this Agreement.  In furtherance of the foregoing, the Grantee agrees to satisfy any tax withholding obligations pursuant to this Section 8 through a broker-assisted sale if requested by the Company. In addition, any fees associated with any vesting, sale, transfer or any act in relation to the RSUs and the shares of Stock, shall be borne by the Grantee. The Trustee and/or the Company and/or the Employer shall be entitled to withhold or deduct such fees from payments otherwise due to/from the Company, the Employer or the Trustee.

salary bank account, contact details and identification number and acknowledges that the information might be shared with an administrator who is located outside of Israel, where the level of protection of personal data is different than in Israel.
21.Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement and the Award are intended to comply with or be exempt from the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code and shall be limited, construed, and interpreted in accordance with such intent. To the extent that the Award is subject to Section 409A of the Code, it shall be paid in a manner that will comply with Section 409A of the Code, including proposed, temporary, or final regulations or any other guidance issued by the Secretary of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service with respect thereto. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any provision in this Agreement that is inconsistent with Section 409A of the Code shall be deemed to be amended to comply with or be exempt from Section 409A of the Code and, to the extent such provision cannot be amended to comply therewith or be exempt therefrom, such provision shall be null and void. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in the Plan or this Agreement, any payment(s) of “nonqualified deferred compensation” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) that are otherwise required to be made under the Plan or this Agreement to a “specified employee” (as defined under Section 409A of the Code) as a result of such employee’s separation from service (other than a payment that is not subject to Section 409A of the Code) shall be delayed for the first six (6) months following such separation from service (or, if earlier, until the date of death of the specified employee) and shall instead be paid (in a manner set forth in this Agreement) upon expiration of such delay period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, with respect to a grant of RSUs that is subject to Section 409A, where the payment or settlement will accelerate as a result of the Grantee’s Disability, solely for purposes of determining the timing of payment, no such event will constitute a Disability for purposes of this Agreement unless such event also constitutes a “disability” as defined under Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and its Affiliates make no representations that the RSUs provided under this Agreement are exempt from or compliant with Section 409A of the Code and in no event shall the Company or any Affiliate be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by the Grantee on account of non-compliance with Section 409A of the Code.
22.Company Recoupment of Awards.  The Grantee’s rights with respect to this Award shall in all events be subject to (a) any right that the Company may have under any Company recoupment or clawback policy or other agreement or arrangement with the Grantee, and (b) any right or obligation that the Company may have regarding the clawback of “incentive-based compensation” under Section 10D of the Exchange Act and any applicable rules and regulations promulgated thereunder from time to time by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or any other applicable law. The Grantee’s acceptance of this Award will constitute the Grantee’s acknowledgment of and consent to the Company’s application, implementation and enforcement of any Company recoupment, clawback or similar policy that may apply to the Grantee and this Award, whether adopted before or after the Grant Date (whether though clawback, cancellation, recoupment, rescission, payback, reduction or other similar action in accordance therewith) and any applicable law relating to clawback, cancellation, recoupment, rescission, payback or reduction of compensation or other similar action, and the Grantee’s agreement that the Company may take any actions that may be necessary to effectuate any such policy or applicable law, without further consideration or action.
