THE DYNCORP MANAGEMENT LLC
CLASS B INTERESTS PLAN
AWARD AGREEMENT
This Award Agreement (this "Agreement") is made and entered into as of March 5,
2014 (the "Grant Date"), by and between Dyncorp Management LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company (the "Company") and George Krivo (the "Participant").
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Company has adopted the Dyncorp Management LLC Class B Interests
Plan (the "Plan"), which Plan is incorporated herein by reference and made a
part of this Agreement. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall
have the same meanings as in the Plan; and
WHEREAS, the Administrator has determined that it would be in the best interests
of Defco and its members to grant the Participant the Class B-1 Interests
provided for herein pursuant to the Plan and the terms set forth herein, solely
as an incentive and in consideration of future services to be rendered by the
Participant to Defco or its Subsidiaries.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein
contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency
of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
1.    Definitions.
"Cause" shall have the same meaning as in an employment agreement (or other
arrangement, including, but not limited to, any severance arrangement) between
the Participant and Defco or its Subsidiaries, provided, that if no such
employment agreement (or other arrangement, including, but not limited to, any
severance arrangement) exists or "Cause" is not defined therein, "Cause" means,
with respect to a Participant, as determined by the Board in its reasonable
judgment: (a) the Participant's continued failure to substantially perform, or
continued negligence in the performance of, the Participant's duties; (b) the
Participant's repeated acts of insubordination, or failure to execute Defco or
Subsidiary plans and/or strategies; (c) the Participant's willful contravention
of specific lawful directions from the Board or the employee to whom the
Participant reports; (d) the Participant's acts of dishonesty resulting or
intending to result in personal gain or enrichment at the expense of Defco or a
Subsidiary; (e) the Participant's commission of, conviction of, plea of guilty
or nolo contendere to, or indictment for, a felony, or other material criminal
act; (f) the Participant's violation of his or her employment agreement (or
other arrangement) with Defco or any Subsidiary thereof, if any, or violation of
any policy of

 
 
 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Defco or any Subsidiary including, but not limited to, Defco's or a Subsidiary's
employment manuals, rules and regulations after one (1) written notice from
Defco or a Subsidiary regarding such violation; or (g) the Participant engaging
in any act that is intended, or may reasonably be expected, to harm the
reputation, business, prospects or operations of Defco or a Subsidiary, its
respective officers, directors, stockholders, Affiliates or employees.
"Good Reason" shall have the same meaning as in an employment agreement (or
other arrangement) between the Participant and Defco or its Subsidiaries,
provided, that if no such employment agreement (or other arrangement) exists or
"Good Reason" or similar term is not defined therein, "Good Reason" means,
without the Participant's consent (i) a reduction in Participant's then current
base salary or bonus at target, (ii) the Company's failure to make payments to
the Participant when due pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, (iii) a
substantial diminution of Participant's duties or responsibilities with Defco;
provided that neither the merger, sale or acquisition of business units,
subsidiaries or assets, nor any similar corporate transaction, shall, by itself,
constitute a diminution of duties or responsibilities for purposes hereof or
(iv), following a Change in Control, the failure of Defco (or any surviving
entity in connection with a Change in Control or any Affiliate) to provide the
Participant a long term incentive benefit with an aggregate value substantially
not less favorable to the long term incentive benefit (including the long term
cash incentive and Class B-1 Interest) granted to the Participant by Defco or
its Affiliates. Each of the foregoing events will cease to constitute Good
Reason unless Participant gives Defco notice of Participant's intention to
resign his position with Defco or its Subsidiaries within sixty (60) days after
Participant's knowledge of the occurrence of such event, and Defco and its
Subsidiaries shall have thirty (30) days from its receipt of such notice to cure
any condition that constitutes Good Reason.
"Transaction Documents" shall mean this Agreement and the Instrument of
Accession to the LLC Agreement.
2.    Grant. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this
Agreement, on the Grant Date, the Company hereby grants to the Participant 450
Class B-1 Interests. For purposes of determining whether the Participant has
Good Reason under subsection (iv) of the definition of Good Reason in this
Agreement and the Employment Agreement, the Participant acknowledges that the
Award shall be valued based on standard present-value methodologies determined
by the Company and its Subsidiaries. Such value is unrelated to the actual value
the executive may receive from the Award.
3.    Relationship to the Plan. The Award is granted pursuant to the Plan and is
in all respects subject to the terms, conditions and definitions of the Plan.
The Participant hereby accepts this Award subject to all the terms and
provisions of the Plan and this Agreement. The Participant further agrees that
all decisions under and interpretations of the Plan by the Administrator

 
2
 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Participant and his or her
beneficiaries. If there is any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement
and the terms of the Plan or the LLC Agreement, the Plan's or the LLC
Agreement's terms shall completely supersede and replace the conflicting terms
of this Agreement. If there is any inconsistency between the terms of the Plan
and the terms of the LLC Agreement, the LLC Agreement's terms shall control.
4.    Transfers of Class B-1 Interests by the Participant. The Award may not be
Transferred by the Participant except in accordance with the Plan or the LLC
Agreement.
5.    Vesting. The Class B-1 Interests shall vest with respect to forty percent
(40%) of the Class B-1 Interests on the Grant Date, an additional twenty percent
(20%) on July 15, 2014 and with respect to the remaining Class B-1 Interests on
July 15, 2015 (each such date, a "Vesting Date"), subject to the Participant's
continued employment with Defco or its Subsidiaries on each Vesting Date.
5.1.    Change of Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a Change of
Control, all Class B-1 Interests, to the extent not previously forfeited or
terminated, shall immediately vest.
6.    Termination of Employment. All unvested Class B-1 Interests will be
forfeited upon the termination of a Participant's employment with Defco or its
Subsidiaries for any reason, provided however, that if the Participant's
employment with Defco or its Subsidiaries is terminated (x) by Defco or its
Subsidiaries without Cause or (y) by the Participant for Good Reason, the Class
B-1 Interests that would have vested on the next Vesting Date shall vest upon
such termination of employment, and provided further that if the Participant's
employment with Defco or its Subsidiaries is terminated by Defco or its
Subsidiaries without Cause, or by the Participant for Good Reason, within
forty-five (45) days prior to a Change in Control, all unvested Class B-1
Interests shall vest upon such Change in Control. All vested Class B-1 Interests
will be subject to repurchase in accordance with Section 7 of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, all vested and unvested Class B-1 Interests will
be forfeited upon the termination of a Participant's employment by Defco or its
Subsidiaries for Cause.
7.    Purchase Rights and Obligations.
(a)    Unless otherwise provided for herein, at any time within 180 days
following a Participant's termination of employment or services with Defco and
its Subsidiaries, the Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to
purchase from the Participant and to cause the Participant to sell, all, but not
less than all, of the vested portion of the Class B-1 Interests (taking into
account any accelerated vesting under Sections 5 or 6) for an amount equal to
the Fair Market Value on the date of the Participant's termination of employment
(the "Purchase Price").

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b)    If the Company does not exercise its right to repurchase pursuant to
Section 7(a), the Company shall, prior to the expiration of the 180 day period
following Participant's termination of employment, provide written notice to the
Investors that it will not exercise its right to repurchase and the Investors
shall have the right, but not the obligation, for a period of 30 calendar days
after the expiration of such 180-day period, to send notice of Investor(s)'
intention to repurchase the Class B-1 Interests upon the terms and conditions
set forth in this Section 7.
(c)    The repurchase notice sent by the Company or an Investor shall disclose
the Fair Market Value of the Class B-1 Interests and a description of the
methodology used to determine the Fair Market Value. The Company or the
Investors and the Participant shall consummate such purchase on a date to be
jointly determined by the Company or the Investors and the Participant (not
later than 30 calendar days after the delivery of the purchase notice) by
delivery by the Participant of certificates, if any, representing the Class B-1
Interests to be repurchased together with the contemporaneous delivery by the
Company or the Investor(s) of the Purchase Price therefor by wire transfer.
(d)    If Participant disagrees with the Administrator's determination of the
Fair Market Value of the Class B-1 Interests the Administrator shall appoint a
nationally recognized investment bank to make the final determination of such
Fair Market Value.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the investment
bank's Fair Market Value determination is found to be within ten percent (10%)
of the Administrator's initial determination of Fair Market Value, the
Participant shall pay the full cost of such investment bank's Fair Market Value
determination.
8.    Section 83(b) Election.
(a)    Within 30 days following the Grant Date, the Participant shall file a
protective election with the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") pursuant to
Section 83(b) of the Code (the "Section 83(b) Election"). The Participant shall
provide the Company with a copy of such Section 83(b) Election within 10 days
following the filing of any such Section 83(b) Election.
9.    Representations and Warranties of the Participant. The Participant hereby
represents and warrants to the Company as follows:
(a)    The Participant's execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction
Documents do not and will not (i) result in a violation of any applicable law,
statute, rule or regulation or order, injunction, judgment or decree of any
court or other governmental or regulatory authority to which the Participant is
bound or subject, (ii) conflict with, or result in a breach of the terms,
conditions or provisions of, constitute (or, with due notice or lapse of time or

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

both, would constitute) a default under, or give rise to any right of
termination, acceleration or cancellation under, any agreement, contract,
license, arrangement, understanding, evidence of indebtedness, note, lease or
other instrument to which the Participant or any of his properties or assets are
bound, or (iii) require any authorization, consent, approval, exemption or other
action by or notice to any third party. The Transaction Documents have been duly
executed and delivered by the Participant and upon due execution and delivery by
the Company will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the
Participant enforceable against the Participant in accordance with their terms,
except as the enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other
similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights in general or by
general principles of equity.
(b)    The Participant understands that the Class B-1 Interests being purchased
are characterized as "restricted securities" under the federal securities laws
inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not
involving a public offering, are being offered and sold without registration
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") in a private
placement that is exempt from the registration provisions of the Securities Act
and that under such laws and applicable regulations such securities may be
resold without registration under the Securities Act only in limited
circumstances. The Participant understands that it must bear the economic risk
of the acquisition of the Class B-1 Interests made in connection herewith for an
indefinite period of time because, among other reasons, the Class B-1 Interests
have not been registered under the Securities Act or under the securities laws
of any state and, therefore, cannot be resold, assigned or otherwise disposed of
unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and under the
applicable securities laws of certain states or an exemption from such
registration is available.
(c)    The Participant understands that the Class B-1 Interests being granted
are subject to the LLC Agreement, the Plan and this Agreement.
(d)    The Participant is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule
501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act or, to the extent
the Participant is not an "accredited investor," another exemption from
registration under the Securities Act applies to the Participant's purchase of
Class B-1 Interests hereunder.
10.    Representation and Warranty of the Company. The Company hereby represents
and warrants to the Participant that the Company is a limited liability company,
duly formed and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The
Company has all requisite limited liability company power and authority to
execute, deliver and carry out the transactions contemplated by the Transaction
Documents, and to issue and deliver the Class B-1 Interests. This Agreement has
been duly executed and delivered by the Company and upon due execution and
delivery by the Participant will constitute the legal, valid and binding
obligations of the Company

 
5
 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as the
enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws
affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights in general or by general
principles of equity.
11.    Conditions. The obligations of the Participant and the Company pursuant

judgment, decree, ruling or assessment be pending or, to the Company's or the
Participant's knowledge, threatened.
