Thoracic Vertebrae and the Rib Cage - Spine-health
T10 does not have an inferior costal demifacet, so its vertebral body only articulates with one rib (the tenth). In some cases, T10’s transverse process does not have a facet to articulate with a rib. T11 only has one facet on each side of the vertebra for articulating with the rib head.

Vertebra T10 - e-Anatomy - IMAIOS
The vertebral body of T10 is heart-shaped and larger than those of the upper thoracic vertebrae. The pedicles are short and stout, projecting directly backward. The transverse processes are relatively large and robust, and they do not have facets for rib articulation, distinguishing T10 from the upper thoracic vertebrae.
