Fortrea Holdings Inc.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, none of our directors or officers (as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) of the Exchange Act)adopted orterminated any contract, instruction or written plan that was intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1(c) of the Exchange Act or any non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement for the purchase or sale of our securities within the meaning of Item 408 of Regulation S-K.

As previously reported on the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 11, 2025, the independent members of the Board of Directors previously approved employment inducement award grants as a material inducement to Mr. Thakral’s employment in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4). Mr. Thakral was granted the inducement awards in connection with his start date on August 4, 2025 under the Fortrea Holdings Inc. 2025 Inducement Award Plan (the “Inducement Plan”), which has terms consistent with the Fortrea Holdings Inc. 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan and was established solely to grant the inducement awards to Mr. Thakral but may be amended in the future to grant additional inducement awards to other new hires who are eligible to receive inducement award grants under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4). The awards consisted of (i) 1,250,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that vest in three equal annual installments from Mr. Thakral’s start date, and (ii) 1,250,000 performance share units (“PSUs”) that will vest, if at all, at the end of a three-year vesting period subject to certain performance goals. In each case, vesting of the RSUs and PSUs is subject to Mr. Thakral’s continuous employment through the applicable vesting date or earlier vesting due to a change of control and certain termination events. The foregoing description of the Inducement Plan, the RSUs and the PSUs is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Inducement Plan and the underlying Restricted Stock Unit Agreement and Performance Share Unit Agreement, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.6, 10.7, and 10.8, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
