IIRC, you should be entitled to 2 15 minute coffee breaks for the first 8 hours and one more 15 minute paid coffee break for the additional 2 hours but don't quote me on this.
Of course, this is if things haven't changed in the last 10 years.
Also, this doesn't apply if you are on contract or salary based. Some places count a full work day at 7 hours worked and a work week at 35 hours. I've also heard of places where you can work 4 ten hour days without OT and call that a full work week, but the employees and employer must agree to this before hand.

it's only over 12 hrs then it's double pay not 10. the 15mins coffee breaks are up to the discretion of your employer it's not mandatory. the only thing mandatory is you have to have a 30mins meal break if you work more than 5 hours. and it's non paid unless otherwise agreed before hand.
most job out there with the exception of some that works 12hrs shifts you get OT if you worked more than 8hrs a day and you also get OT if you work more than 40hrs a week. i'm not sure if it stacks but if you do more than 8hrs a day that week and also more than 40hrs that week the OT will stack or it should?
