This Transition Agreement and General Release of Claims (“Agreement”) is entered into by and between Louis V. Pinkham (“Executive”) and Regal Rexnord Corporation (“Regal Rexnord” or the “Company”), collectively, the “Parties”.

WHEREAS, Executive has been employed by Regal Rexnord as Chief Executive Officer;

WHEREAS, the Parties mutually desire to provide for the transition of Executive from the role of Chief Executive Officer and ultimate separation from employment in an amicable way and to settle any disputes, known and unknown, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement;

WHEREAS, Executive will cease to serve as Chief Executive Officer of the Company effective as of the appointment by the Board of Directors of a successor Chief Executive Officer (“Transition Date”) and will thereafter serve as an advisor to the Company through March 31, 2026 (“Termination Date”); and

WHEREAS, after Executive has accepted this Agreement by signing it below, he may revoke acceptance of this Agreement for a period of seven (7) calendar days after the date he signs it (the “Revocation Period”), as set forth in Section II.E below. This Agreement shall become effective on the day after the expiration of the applicable Revocation Period unless Executive revokes the Agreement during the Revocation Period (the “Effective Date”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises contained in this Agreement, the Parties to this Agreement agree as follows:

I. TRANSITION AND PAYMENTS

A. Terms of Continued Employment. Regal Rexnord shall continue to employ Executive as Chief Executive Officer through the Transition Date at his compensation levels in effect as of the Effective Date. Following the Transition Date and through the Termination Date, Executive shall be employed as an advisor at the same base salary as in effect as of the Effective Date and shall have such duties as may be assigned to him from time to time by Regal Rexnord. Executive shall remain eligible for continued vesting of his equity-based awards during the period he is employed as an advisor, but shall not be eligible to participate in the Company’s annual incentive plan for 2026 and shall not receive a grant of equity-based awards during the grant cycle for 2026. Through the Termination Date, Executive shall at all times and in all respects conform to, and comply with, the reasonable directions and instructions given to him by Regal Rexnord and shall use his best efforts to promote and serve the interests of Regal Rexnord. Further, through the Termination Date, Executive shall refrain from taking any actions that conflict with Regal Rexnord’s interests and shall perform all his duties for Regal Rexnord with the highest duty of care. Executive shall comply with the provisions of Regal Rexnord’s policies and procedures, including, but not limited to, all provisions concerning confidentiality and conflicts of interest. Executive hereby resigns from the Board of Directors of Regal Rexnord and all subsidiaries and affiliates effective as of the Transition Date.

B. Separation Benefits. Executive’s separation from employment on the Termination Date shall be treated as a Qualifying Termination for purposes of, and as defined under, the Regal Rexnord Corporation Executive Severance Policy. In connection therewith, subject to Section II, Executive shall be entitled to receive:

(i)

a lump sum cash payment equal to two (2) times the sum of (1) Executive’s base salary as of the Effective Date plus (2) Executive’s target annual bonus as of the Effective Date ($6,000,000 in the aggregate), payable within thirty (30) days after the effective date of the release of claims required by Section II.F.;

(ii)

a full annual bonus for the 2025 calendar year to the extent such bonus has not been paid as of the Termination Date, with such bonus based on achievement of previously established performance goals, as determined by the Board of Directors (or a subcommittee thereof) consistent with other senior executives of the Company;

(iii)

provided Executive is eligible for and timely elects COBRA continuation following the Termination Date, Executive shall continue to be eligible to participate in the health benefits plan coverage in effect at the Termination Date (or generally comparable coverage) for Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents, as the same may be changed from time to time for employees of the Company generally, as if Executive had continued in employment for up to twenty four (24) months (“Benefits Continuation Period”). Executive shall be responsible for the payment of the employee portion of any premiums or contributions that are required during the Benefits Continuation Period and such premiums and contributions shall be made within the time period and in the amounts that other employees are required to pay to the Company for similar coverage. Executive’s failure to pay the applicable premiums or contributions shall result in the cessation of the applicable coverage for the Executive and his or her eligible dependents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Executive commences employment with another company at any time during the Benefits Continuation Period and becomes eligible for coverage under the plan(s) of such other company, the benefits provided under the Company’s plans shall cease. Within thirty (30) days following Executive’s commencement of employment with another company, Executive shall provide the Company written notice of such employment and provide information to the Company regarding the group health plan benefits provided to the Executive by his new employer. The COBRA continuation coverage period under Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code shall run concurrently with the continuation period described herein; and

(iv)

Accrued Benefits (as defined under the Regal Rexnord Corporation Executive Severance Policy).

For purposes of clarity, all unvested equity and long-term incentive awards that Executive holds as of the Termination Date shall be immediately forfeited as of the Termination Date. Executive may exercise any stock options or stock appreciation rights that are vested and

exercisable as of the Termination Date until the earlier of the 180th day following the Termination Date and the expiration date of the applicable award.

C. Indemnification and Insurance. Executive shall continue to have the rights to indemnification and insurance described in Section 3.11 of his Executive Employment Agreement with a predecessor to the Company dated as of March 12, 2019 in accordance with the terms thereof.

II. RELEASE OF CLAIMS AND COVENANT NOT TO SUE

A. Release. Executive, for himself and his heirs, executors, administrators, and assigns, agrees to, and hereby does, forever release Regal Rexnord, its parent, and any affiliated organizations, and the shareholders, directors, officers, agents, insurers, attorneys, and employees of each of these organizations (“Released Parties”) from, and waives, any and all claims or causes of action, whether known or unknown, asserted or unasserted, that Executive has, had, or may have as a result of any act, failure to act, or omission of any kind on the part of the Released Parties from Executive’s date of hire up to the date he executes this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this release applies to: (a) any and all claims in any way related to Executive’s employment with Regal Rexnord or termination thereof; (b) any and all claims for additional compensation, bonuses, or benefits under any benefit plan, policy, or practice, except for those referenced in this Agreement and those benefits routinely payable under the benefit plans in which Executive participated immediately prior to termination, if any; (c) any and all claims for wrongful discharge, misrepresentation, defamation, fraudulent concealment, negligent supervision, negligent retention, negligent or intentional infliction of emotional distress, tortious interference with contractual relations, tortious interference with prospective contractual relations, restitution, payment of monies such as wages, vacation pay, and other paid time, outrageous behavior, breach of express or implied contract, promissory estoppel, breach of any implied duty of good faith, or under any other theory of recovery; (d) any and all claims under or pursuant to any other agreement; (e) any and all claims under the Family Medical Leave Act, Americans With Disabilities Act, Age Discrimination In Employment Act (“ADEA”), Older Worker Benefit Protection Act (“OWBPA”), National Labor Relations Act (“NLRA”), Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, the Equal Pay Act, the Reconstruction Era Civil Rights Acts, United States Executive Orders 11246 and 11375, 42 U.S.C.

C. Waiver of Unknown Claims. Executive intends that this Agreement shall bar each and every claim, demand, and cause of action hereinabove specified, whether known or unknown to him at the time of execution of this Agreement. As a result, Executive acknowledges that he might, in the future, discover claims or facts in addition to or different from those which he now knows or believes to exist with respect to the subject matters of this Agreement and which, if known or suspected at the time of executing this Agreement, may have materially affected the terms of this Agreement.

(viii)

Executive acknowledges and understands that he may revoke this Agreement within seven (7) calendar days of the date on which Executive executes this document.

Should Executive wish to exercise his right to revoke this Agreement, the revocation must be in writing and must be delivered by hand or certified mail within seven (7) calendar days of the date he executes this Agreement and delivered to:

J. Severability. Each of Executive’s obligations under this Agreement shall be considered a separate and severable obligation.
