Re: President and Chief Executive Officer Agreement Dear Tara:

On behalf of WW International, Inc. (the “Company”), I am pleased to offer you the position of President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company on the terms and conditions set forth in this letter agreement (this “Agreement”). This Agreement amends and restates, and in all respects supersedes, the Interim President and Chief Executive Officer Agreement between you and the Company, dated September 27, 2024 (the “Interim Agreement”). Following the execution of this Agreement, the Interim Agreement will have no further force or effect.

You may accept this Agreement by signing and returning a copy of this Agreement to the Company as provided below.

1.
Term of Employment. Your employment under this Agreement shall commence as of the date of this Agreement (the “Commencement Date”) and shall continue until the earlier to occur of (a) the date on which your employment with the Company terminates for any reason or no reason and (b) March 31, 2026 (the first to occur of the foregoing, the “Term End Date”); provided, however, that, prior to March 31, 2026, you and the Company may mutually agree to extend the term beyond March 31, 2026. The period from the Commencement Date through the Term End Date (including any mutually agreed extension of the term of your employment hereunder) shall be the “Term of Employment”. Your employment is “at will” and is terminable by you or the Company at any time (for any reason or for no reason) in accordance with Section 6.
2.
Position and Duties. During the Term of Employment, you shall serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company (together with such other position or positions as the Board shall specify from time to time). Your duties and authority as President and Chief Executive Officer shall be prescribed by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and shall be commensurate with those of the position of president and chief executive officer. You agree to serve as an officer and director of any subsidiary of the Company (together with the Company, the “Company Group”) and you shall continue to serve as a member of the Board during the Term of Employment (subject to election by the shareholders of the Company), in each case without additional compensation. During the Term of Employment, you will report directly to the Board and will devote your full business time, energy, experience and talents to the business of the Company Group; provided, that it shall not be a violation of this Agreement for you to (a) with the prior written consent of the Board, serve on the board of directors of other for-profit companies that do not compete with the Company Group, (b) serve on civic or charitable boards or committees and (c) manage personal investments, so long as all such activities described in

2

clauses (a) through (c) above do not materially interfere with the performance of your duties and responsibilities under this Agreement.
3.
Tax Withholding. The Company Group shall be entitled to withhold from any amounts payable to you any and all applicable Federal, state and local withholding and other taxes, deductions and charges. You acknowledge and represent that the Company has not provided any tax advice to you in connection with this Agreement and that you have been advised by the Company to seek tax advice from your own tax advisors regarding this Agreement and payments that may be made to you.
4.
Compensation and Benefits. In consideration for your services to the Company, you shall receive the following compensation and benefits from the Company.
(a)
Salary. During the Term of Employment, the Company shall pay you an annual salary of $1,500,000 (the “Salary”) in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll practices. You will receive the Salary in bi-weekly payments pursuant to the Company’s regular payroll practices. If you and the Company mutually agree to extend the term of your employment hereunder in accordance with Section 1, such Salary will be subject to annual review by, and increase at the discretion of, the Compensation Committee of the Board.
(b)
Cash Bonus.
(i)
You shall receive a cash bonus of $750,000, payable in a lump sum on March 27, 2025, subject to your continued employment through such date; provided that if you are terminated by the Company without Cause or you resign for Modified Good Reason prior to such date, you shall remain entitled to receive such payment on such date.
(ii)
Commencing in 2026, you shall be entitled to receive, during the remaining Term of Employment thereafter, an annual incentive bonus with a target value of 150% of Salary (the “Annual Bonus”) in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Company’s annual incentive bonuses made to other senior executives of the Company, as in effect from time to time. The Annual Bonus shall be paid to you at the same time as annual bonuses are generally payable to other senior executives of the Company subject to your continuous employment through the applicable payment date. If your employment with the Company ends on March 31, 2026 pursuant to clause (b) of Section 1, subject to your timely execution, return to the Company and non-revocation of a release of claims in favor of the Company in a form provided by the Company and continued compliance with all restrictive covenants to which you are subject in favor of the Company Group, you shall receive an amount equal to 25% of the target Annual Bonus, which amount shall be paid by May 15, 2026.
(c)
One-Time Cash Award. To incentivize you to remain employed with the Company as it evaluates strategic alternatives and initiatives, and in consideration of your commitment to remain employed by the Company and its affiliates through the Target Date (as defined below), as soon as practicable following the date hereof (and in no event later than April 30, 2025), the Company will pay you a lump sum cash award in the amount of $4,500,000 (your “One-Time Cash Award”), which also serves as your annual bonus award for 2025 and is also in lieu of any equity awards you may have received in or in respect of 2025 for any period prior to a Change

in Control, subject to and in consideration of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including Exhibit A hereto. If, prior to the earlier of (i) January 31, 2026 and (ii) 60 days following the consummation of a Change in Control (such earlier date, the “Target Date”), you resign without Modified Good Reason prior to a Change in Control, you resign without Good Reason after a Change in Control, or the Company terminates your employment for Cause, you agree to promptly repay to the Company, within 15 days of the date of your termination of employment, the full amount of the One-Time Cash Award. For the avoidance of doubt, however, if you are terminated by the Company without Cause, you resign for Modified Good Reason prior to a Change in Control, you resign for Good Reason on or after a Change in Control, or your employment terminates due to your death, such clawback shall be waived if you (or your representative, in the event of your death) timely execute, return to the Company and do not revoke a release of claims in favor of the Company in a form provided by the Company and comply with all restrictive covenants to which you are subject in favor of the Company Group. If you fail to repay the full amount of the One-Time Cash Award when due to the Company pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, the Company may recover from you any such un-repaid amounts, including by offsetting any other compensation or benefits due to you, subject to applicable law, and you will be obligated to reimburse the Company for all legal expenses and other costs incurred by the Company in its attempts to recover the full amount of the One-Time Cash Award.
(d)
Long-Term Incentive Award. Following a Change in Control, you shall be eligible to participate in any long-term incentive plan adopted and maintained by the Company. Commencing in 2026, you shall be entitled to receive, during the remaining Term of Employment thereafter, an annual long-term incentive award with a target value of 400% of Salary on the date of grant of such award in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Company’s long-term incentive grants made to other senior executives of the Company.
(e)
Benefits. During the Term of Employment, you shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s employee benefit plans, policies and arrangements as may now or hereafter be adopted by the Company, in accordance with the terms of such plans, policies and arrangements, and on the same basis as other senior executives of the Company. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to limit the Company’s ability to amend, suspend, or terminate any employee benefit plan or policy at any time without providing you notice, and the right to do so is expressly reserved.
(f)
Business Expenses. During the Term of Employment, the Company shall reimburse you for business expenses that are reasonable and necessary for you to perform, and are incurred by you in the course of the performance of, your duties pursuant to this Agreement and in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement policies.
(g)
Legal Fees. The Company shall pay or reimburse you for the reasonable cost of attorney’s fees incurred in the negotiation of this Agreement and related agreements up to $20,000 within 60 days of receipt of documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the incurrence of such attorney’s fees (with recognition that such documentation will include attorney and time, but not the details of services).

4

(h)
Indemnification; D&O Coverage. The Company shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend you from all damages, claims, losses and costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) to the maximum extent permitted by law with regard to actions or inactions taken in good faith performance of your duties to the Company Group. During the Term of Employment, you shall also be entitled to directors and officers liability insurance coverage in accordance with the Company’s policies that cover officers and directors generally. The Company’s indemnification and insurance obligations hereunder with respect to actions taken during the Term of Employment shall remain in effect following your termination of employment with the Company hereunder for any reason.
5.
Covenants. In consideration of the compensation and benefits provided to you in this Agreement, including the One-Time Cash Award, you hereby agree to be bound by the terms of the Restrictive Covenant Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A, which is incorporated into this Agreement as if set forth herein. You recognize and acknowledge that these restrictions and limitations are reasonable and valid in all respects and are essential to protect the value of the business and assets of the Company. Such covenants shall be in addition to, and shall not replace or supersede, any other restrictive covenants you are subject to in favor of the Company.
6.
Termination; Termination Benefits.
(a)
Your employment with the Company may be terminated by you at any time for any or no reason upon no less than 90 days prior written notice to the Board and by the Company at any time for any reason or no reason upon no less than 90 days prior written notice to you (except if such termination is for Cause, in which case termination may be immediate). During any such notice period, the Company may place you on garden leave. Your employment with the Company shall terminate automatically upon your death. Except as otherwise expressly required by law, your rights to Salary, Annual Bonus, employee benefits and all other awards and compensatory amounts pursuant to this Agreement shall cease upon Term End Date. Upon your termination of employment, you shall be deemed to have resigned from any and all directorships, committee memberships, and any other positions you hold with the Company Group, and you shall cooperate with the Company to execute any documentation needed to effectuate such resignations.
(b)
In the event that during the Term of Employment, your employment with the Company Group is terminated (x) prior to the earlier of (I) January 31, 2026 and (II) a Change in Control, by the Company without Cause or due to your resignation of employment for Modified Good Reason, or (y) on or following the earlier of (I) January 31, 2026 and (II) a Change in Control, by the Company without Cause or due to your resignation of employment for Good Reason (the date of such termination, the “Separation Date”), subject to your timely execution, return to the Company and non-revocation of a release of claims in favor of the Company in a form provided by the Company and continued compliance with all restrictive covenants to which you are subject in favor of the Company Group, you shall be entitled to the following payments and benefits from the Company:
(i)
Any unpaid Annual Bonus in respect of any completed fiscal year during the Term of Employment that has ended prior to the Separation Date, which amount shall be paid at such time annual bonuses are paid to other senior executives of the Company, but in

5

no event later than the date that is 2½ months following the last day of the fiscal year in which the Separation Date occurred;
(ii)
An amount equal to (A) the target Annual Bonus, multiplied by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days elapsed from the commencement of such fiscal year through the Separation Date and the denominator of which is 365 (or 366, as applicable), which amount shall be paid within 45 days of the Separation Date;
(iii)
Salary continuation until the later of (A) the six-month anniversary of the Separation Date (or if earlier, the date you are placed on garden leave) and (B) March 31, 2026 (the period from the Separation Date (or if earlier, the date you are placed on garden leave) through such later date, the “Severance Period”), paid in accordance with the normal payroll practices of the Company; and
(iv)
Welfare Continuation during the Severance Period (together with salary continuation, “Severance”).

For the avoidance of doubt, (1) you are not entitled to an Annual Bonus for 2025, and as such, no payment with respect thereto shall be due pursuant to this Section 6, and (2) no payments made pursuant to this Section 6 shall be duplicative of any other payments under this Agreement.

(h)
This Agreement and the payments hereunder are intended to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of Code and shall be interpreted in accordance with such intent. Each payment in a series of payments hereunder shall be deemed to be a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, any payment otherwise required to be made hereunder to you at any date as a result of the termination of your employment shall be delayed for such period of time as may be necessary to meet the requirements of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code (the “Delay Period”). On the first business day following the expiration of the Delay Period, you shall be paid, in a single cash lump sum, an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all payments delayed pursuant to the preceding sentence, and any remaining payments not so delayed shall continue to be paid pursuant to the payment schedule set forth herein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the payment (or commencement of a series of payments) hereunder of any nonqualified

9

deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) upon a termination of employment shall be delayed until such time as you have also undergone a “separation from service” as defined in Treas. Reg. 1.409A-1(h), at which time such nonqualified deferred compensation shall be paid (or commence to be paid) to you as if you had undergone such termination of employment (under the same circumstances) on the date of your “separation from service.” To the extent that any right to reimbursement of expenses or payment of any benefit in-kind under this Agreement constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code), (i) any such expense reimbursement shall be made by the Company no later than the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expense was incurred by you, (ii) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (iii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits to be provided in any other taxable year; provided, that the foregoing clause shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under any arrangement covered by Section 105(b) of the Code solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect.
(i)
In the event that any payments or benefits due to you (whether under this Agreement or otherwise) are determined by the Company to constitute “excess parachute payments” as defined under Section 280G of the Code, any such payments shall be reduced by the minimum amount necessary, subject to the last sentence of this paragraph, such that the present value of such parachute payments is below 300% of your “base amount” (as defined under Section 280G of the Code). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no payments or benefits shall be reduced under this Section 8(i) unless (A) the net amount of such payments and benefits, as so reduced (and after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such reduced payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such reduced payments and benefits), is greater than or equal to (B) the net amount of such payments without such reduction (but after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such payments and benefits and the amount of excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code as to which you would be subject in respect of such unreduced payments and benefits and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such unreduced payments). For purposes hereof, (x) the order in which any amounts are deemed to be reduced, if applicable, is (a) cash payments, (b) other non-cash forms of benefits, and (c) equity-based payments and acceleration of vesting, and (y) within any such category of payments and benefits (that is, (x)(a), (x)(b) or (x)(c) above), (I) a reduction shall occur first with respect to amounts that are not “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and then with respect to amounts that are and (II) to the extent that any such amounts are to be made over time (e.g., in installments, etc.), then the amounts shall be reduced in reverse chronological order.

(the “Company”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and agreements contained in the Employment Agreement, the adequacy and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Employee hereby agrees as follows:

1.

Employee will not disclose or use at any time, any Confidential Information (as defined below) of which Employee is or becomes aware, whether or not such information is developed by Employee, except (i) to the extent that such disclosure or use is directly related to and required by Employee’s performance of duties, if any, assigned to Employee by the Company or its subsidiaries the “Company Group”), or (ii) pursuant to the order of any court or administrative agency.
(b)
As used in this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” means information that is not generally known to the public and that is used, developed or obtained by the Company Group in connection with its business, including but not limited to (i) products or services, (ii) fees, costs and pricing structures, (iii) designs, (iv) computer software, including operating systems, applications and programs listings, (v) flow charts, manuals and documentation, (vi) data bases, (vii) accounting and business methods, (viii) inventions, devices, new developments, methods and processes, whether patentable or unpatentable and whether or not reduced to practice, (ix) customers and clients and customer or client lists, (x) other copyrightable works, (xi) all technology and trade secrets, and (xii) all similar and related information in whatever form.

Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit or impede Employee from communicating, cooperating or filing a complaint with any U.S. federal, state or local governmental or law enforcement branch, agency or entity (collectively, a “Governmental Entity”) with respect to possible violations of any U.S. federal, state or local law or regulation, or otherwise making disclosures to any Governmental Entity, in each case, that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of any such law or regulation, provided that in each case such communications and disclosures are consistent with applicable law.

Nondisparagement.

Employee shall not make, issue or authorize any disparaging, critical or otherwise negative statements regarding any member of the Company Group or any of their affiliates, officers or directors, whether orally or in writing, to any individual, entity or party whatsoever, or post any such statements on any online forum or website.

6.
Cooperation.

Both during and after Employee’s employment with the Company Group, Employee shall reasonably cooperate (with due regard given to Employee’s other commitments), (i) with the Company Group in the defense of any legal matter not adverse to Employee and involving any matter that arose during Employee’s employment with the Company or any other member of the Company Group; and (ii) with all government authorities on matters pertaining to any investigation, litigation or administrative proceeding pertaining to the Company or any other member of the Company Group, in each case, relating to Employee’s employment period and not adverse to Employee.

7.
Miscellaneous.
(a)
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, if at any time a court holds that the restrictions stated in Section 4 are unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable under circumstances then existing, Employee and the Company agree that the maximum period, scope or geographic area determined to be reasonable under such circumstances by such court will be substituted for the stated period, scope or area.
(b)
Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company’s remedies at law for a breach or threatened breach of any of the covenants herein would be inadequate and the Company would suffer irreparable damages as a result of such breach or threatened breach. In recognition of this fact, Employee agrees that, in the case of a breach or threatened breach of any of the covenants herein, the Company may seek equitable relief in the form of specific performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then be available.
(c)
This Agreement may not be modified, altered, changed or terminated except upon the express prior written consent of the Company and Employee or their authorized agents. A subsequent non- competition, confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement entered into by Employee for the benefit of any member of the Company Group will not modify, alter, change or terminate this Agreement unless it expressly refers to this Agreement.
(d)
Employee is hereby advised to consult with an attorney before entering into this Agreement. Employee acknowledges and agrees that (i) no promise or inducement for this Agreement has been made except as set forth herein, (ii) this Agreement is executed by Employee without reliance upon any statement or representation by the Company except as set forth herein, and (iii) Employee is legally competent to execute

4

this Agreement and to accept full responsibility therefor. If Employee is primarily a resident of, or primarily provides services in, Illinois on (x) the date hereof or (y) the date of termination of Employee’s employment, Employee agrees that before being required to sign this Agreement, the Company provided Employee with 14 calendar days to review it.

Each party shall submit three names of proposed arbitrators to the other side, including at least two names from a list of approved AAA arbitrators. If the parties cannot mutually agree on an arbitrator from such lists, each party shall strike two names from the other party’s list and the arbitrator shall then be chosen at random by the AAA from the two remaining names. The Company and Employee agree that such arbitration will be confidential and no details, descriptions, settlements or other facts concerning such arbitration shall be disclosed or released to any third party without the specific written consent of the other party, unless required by law or in connection with enforcement of any decision in such arbitration. Each party shall be responsible for its own attorneys’ fees and costs associated with such arbitration, except that the cost of the arbitration (such as the Arbitrator’s fee) shall be shared equally between the Company and Employee. Furthermore, each party shall bear its own costs and attorneys’ fees, if any, incurred in connection with this Agreement.
(f)
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York; provided, that if Employee is primarily a resident of, or primarily provides services in, the State of California on (i) the date hereof or (ii) the date of termination of Employee’s employment, this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.
(g)
Nothing contained in this Agreement (i) obligates the Company or any subsidiary of the Company to employ Employee in any capacity whatsoever or (ii) prohibits or restricts the Company (or any such subsidiary) from terminating the employment, if any, of Employee at any time or for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause, and Employee hereby acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company nor any other person has made any representations or promises whatsoever to Employee concerning Employee’s employment or continued employment by the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
