NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and mutual covenants contained
herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the Company, AGL, Dexia
and the Executive (the “Parties”) hereby agree as follows:

 

1. General Effectiveness; Termination Date

 

(a)  The effectiveness of this Agreement is contingent on the occurrence of the
Effective Date, and no Party shall have any rights or obligations under this
Agreement (or the Executive General Release, the Executive ADEA Release or the
AGL/Dexia General Release (each as defined below)) unless such Closing occurs. 
In the event that the Closing does not occur and the parties to the Acquisition
terminate the definitive agreements with respect thereto, this Agreement (and
the Executive General Release, the Executive ADEA Release and the AGL/Dexia
General Release) shall be null and void ab initio.

 

(b) The effective date of the Executive’s separation from all positions and
employment with the Company and its subsidiaries will be the Effective Date.

 

2. Payments and Benefits

 

(a)(i) On the Effective Date, following the Closing, the Company will pay to the
Executive a cash lump sum of $8,500,000.

 

2

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

 

(ii) On the first business day after the Executive ADEA Release Effective Date
(as defined in Exhibit A2, and provided that such Executive ADEA Release
Effective Date has occurred), the Company will pay to the Executive a lump sum
cash payment of $1,500,000.

 

(b) On the Effective Date, AGL will give to the transfer agent of AGL common

shares of common stock of the Company, which are all of the issued and
outstanding shares of Company common stock held by the Executive.  The Executive
agrees to execute such documents, as reasonably requested by the Company, to

expected that the transfer agent will transfer the AGL Shares to the Executive
within three business days after the Effective Date.

 

(c)(i) AGL agrees to file a prospectus supplement to its registration statement

Executive as a selling stockholder with respect to the AGL Shares, or to
otherwise register the AGL Shares for resale by the Executive, promptly
following the issuance of the AGL Shares to the Executive and to provide the
Executive, without charge, such reasonable number of such prospectus supplement
and prospectus as the Executive may request.  AGL agrees to keep any
registration statement effective with respect to the AGL Shares until the
Executive may sell the AGL Shares without restriction pursuant to Rule 144 of
the Securities Act.

 

(ii) AGL agrees to notify the Executive at any time when a prospectus relating
to such registration is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, upon
discovery that, or upon the discovery of the happening of any event as a result
of which, the prospectus contains an

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

 

untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which
they were made, and, as soon as reasonably practicable, prepare and furnish to
the Executive a reasonable number of copies of a supplement or amendment to such
prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the AGL Shares,
such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit
to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the
light of the circumstances under which they were made.

 

(iii) AGL agrees to notify the Executive (A) when such prospectus supplement,
registration statement or post-effective amendment has been filed and, with
respect to any such registration statement or any post-effective amendment, when
the same has become effective, (B) of any request by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (“SEC”) for amendments or supplements to such Registration Statement
or to amend or to supplement such prospectus or for additional information, and
(C) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of
the applicable  registration statement or the initiation of any proceedings for
any of such purposes.

 

(iv) AGL will cause the AGL Shares to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange,
subject to official notice of issuance.

 

(v) The Executive agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from AGL of the

amended prospectus as contemplated by such Section 2(c)(ii).

(vi)  The Executive agrees that he will only sell the AGL Shares in ordinary
brokerage transactions on the New York Stock Exchange.  AGL agrees that it will

8

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

 

subject which arise out of, are based upon or relate to the Executive’s
employment by the Company or the Executive’s service as an officer or member of
the board of directors of the Company or any of its Affiliates, to the extent

a period of six years after the Effective Date, the Company or an Affiliate of

Company (or a similar replacement policy) for the benefit of the Executive (and,
to the extent provided under the policy as currently maintained by the Company,
or a similar replacement policy, his survivors and heirs, and other persons

otherwise expressly provided herein.

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

 

(e)  To the extent, if any, that, in the absence of this Agreement, the
Executive would have been entitled to “Gross-Up Payments” in respect of the
“Excise Tax” (each, as defined in the FSA Employment Agreement) pursuant to the
FSA Employment Agreement, Dexia shall provide such Gross-Up Payments to the
Executive in respect of the Excise Tax on the same terms and conditions as
provided in the FSA Employment Agreement.

 

(f)  The term “Affiliates” with respect to any person means any other person
directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with
such person.

 

(g)  The Executive agrees that he will cooperate reasonably with the Company,
AGL, Dexia, and their Affiliates in the defense of any investigations of the
Company, AGL, and Dexia and their Affiliates or any third-party claims that may
be made against any of the Company, AGL, and Dexia and their Affiliates, to the
extent that such claims may relate to the period during which the Executive
performed services for the Company or Dexia; which shall include, without
limitation, any alleged bid-rigging, anti-competitive activity, or violations of
securities law.  (Such investigations and third-party claims with respect to
alleged bid-rigging, anti-competitive activity, or violations of securities law
are collectively referred to as the “Actions.”)  In furtherance (but not in
limitation) of the foregoing, Executive agrees to provide the Company, AGL,
Dexia and their Affiliates and their counsel reasonable access to all relevant
business records and other documents in Executive’s possession and to give
testimony and provide affidavits or declarations as required by the Company,
AGL, and Dexia and their Affiliates with respect to the matters as to which he
is cooperating pursuant to this Section 3(g).  The Company, AGL, and Dexia (as
applicable depending on which entity requested assistance under this
Section 3(g)) will promptly reimburse the Executive for his reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection

 

10

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

 

with the foregoing assistance, cooperation, and access.  If any of the Company,
AGL, Dexia or their Affiliates determine to resolve, in whole or in part, any
Action by settlement, they shall use commercially reasonable efforts to include
the Executive as a party covered by and released from further claims pursuant to
such settlement; provided, however, that nothing in this sentence shall be
construed to in any way limit the discretion of any such company as to whether
to enter into a settlement or to determine the terms of such settlement; and
further provided that nothing in this sentence shall be construed to prejudice
the rights the Company, AGL, Dexia and their Affiliates to pursue claims against
the Executive to the extent they could do so in the absence of this sentence.

 

4. Withholding

 

Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, all payments
required to be made by the Company hereunder to the Executive shall be subject
to withholding of such amounts relating to taxes as the Company may reasonably
determine it is required to withhold pursuant to any applicable law or
regulation. In lieu of withholding such amounts, in whole or in part, the
Company may, in its sole discretion, accept other provision for payment of taxes
as required by law, provided it is satisfied that all requirements of law
affecting its responsibilities to withholding such taxes have been satisfied.

 

5. Certain Agreements between AGL, the Company and Dexia

 

(a)  Each of AGL and Dexia agrees that at the Closing (i) 305,017 AGL Common
Shares (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) shall be deducted from the Share

any Director Share Price Differential (as defined in the Purchase Agreement)
relating to the 27,087 FSA share units and the 24,611 FSA common shares
forfeited and delivered, respectively, by Executive pursuant to this Agreement.

 

(c) Pursuant to Section 4, the Company shall withhold taxes with respect to
payments and distributions of cash and AGL Common Shares in accordance with
Section 2, and with respect to distributions it makes under Section 3(c)(v), and
will hold Dexia harmless for any tax liabilities asserted against Dexia with
respect to such payments and distributions.  Nothing in paragraph 2 of this
Agreement shall supersede the provisions of Section 5.2 of the Purchase
Agreement.

 

(d) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Dexia shall have no
liability for payment of compensation or benefits to the Executive.

 

6.   Arbitration of All Disputes
