THIS SPECIAL TERMINATION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made as of the
             day of                     , between BearingPoint, Inc., a Delaware

future and has acquired contacts of considerable value to the Company; and 
  
 WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) recognizes that the Executive’s contribution to the success of the Company has been substantial and wishes to offer an inducement to the
Executive to remain in the employ of the Company; 
  
 NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the respective covenants and agreements of the parties herein contained, the parties agree as follows:

termination (except for a termination as a result of any of the events described in Section 3(a)(3)); provided, however, that, on each anniversary date of this Agreement or any extension thereof, this Agreement, the Term and the periods

 provided, however, that a Change of Control of the Company shall
not be deemed to have occurred as the result of any transaction having one or more of the effects specified in clauses (i)-(vi) above if such transaction is proposed by, and includes a significant equity participation (i.e., an aggregate of at
least 25% of the outstanding common equity securities of the Company immediately after such transaction which are entitled to vote to elect any class of Directors) of, the executive officers of the Company as constituted immediately prior to the

bonus or incentive compensation that the Executive received from the Company for the fiscal year preceding the year in which the Termination Date occurs, (iii) the bonus or incentive compensation that the Executive could have received based on
his maximum bonus or incentive compensation potential under the applicable Company plan for the fiscal year preceding the year in which the Change of Control occurred and (iv) the bonus or incentive compensation that the Executive could have

 (i) Term. The “Term” shall have the meaning specified in Section 1.

affecting any other rights of the Executive at law or in equity, if any of the following events occur: 
  
 (1) the Company terminates the Executive’s employment within two years after a Change of Control that occurs during the Term, other
than for either of the following reasons: 
  

	 	(i)	the Executive becomes permanently disabled and is unable to work for a period of 180 consecutive days; or 

  

	 	(ii)	for Cause; 

  
 (2) within six months prior to a Change of Control and in anticipation of a Change of Control, either (i) the Executive’s
employment is involuntarily terminated by the Company (except for Cause) or (ii) the Executive is assigned duties inconsistent with her then current position, duties, responsibilities and status with the Company (other than as a result of a
promotion or advancement), or there is otherwise an adverse change in the Executive’s salary, bonus or incentive compensation, the scope or value of the aggregate other monetary or non-monetary benefits to which the Executive was entitled from
the Company, the nature or scope of the authorities, functions or duties attached to the position then held by the Executive and the Executive terminates her employment, provided, however, that the Company may cure any matter referenced in this









 
clause (ii) within 15 days of receipt of Executive’s written notice to the General Counsel of the Company that a matter referenced in this clause

 (3) if the Executive terminates his employment during the Term but after a Change of Control, and at least one of the following events has
occurred: 
  

	 	(i)	the Executive is assigned duties inconsistent with his position, duties, responsibilities and status with the Company immediately prior to the Change of Control (other than as a
result of a promotion or advancement), or there is otherwise an adverse change in the nature or scope of the authorities, functions or duties attached to the position that the Executive held immediately prior to the Change of Control;


  

	 	(ii)	any reduction (a) in the Executive’s salary, bonus or incentive compensation (based upon the dollar amount of salary, bonus or incentive compensation that the Executive
received from the Company for the fiscal year preceding the year in which the Change of Control occurred or for the fiscal year preceding the year in which the Termination Date occurs, whichever is the larger amount), (b) in the maximum bonus
or incentive compensation potential of the Executive under the applicable Company plan for the fiscal year preceding the year in which the Change of Control occurred or for the fiscal year preceding the year in which the Termination Date occurs,
whichever is larger or (c) in the scope or value of the aggregate other monetary or non-monetary benefits to which the Executive was entitled from the Company immediately prior to the Change of Control; 

  

	 	(iii)	there is a significant or material change in the Executive’s reporting responsibilities (other than as a result of a promotion or advancement); or 

  

	 	(iv)	the Executive reasonably determines, in good faith, that as a result of a Change of Control, changes in the composition or policies of the Board, a change in circumstances affecting
his position, or other events of material effect, he is unable, or has been rendered substantially unable, to carry out the duties and responsibilities that he had with the Company immediately prior to the Change of Control or has otherwise been
substantially hindered in the performance of the authorities, functions or duties attached to his position immediately prior to the Change of Control. 








 (b) Continued Benefits. If any of the events specified in Sections 3(a)(1)-(3) occur, then
until the earlier of the second anniversary of the Termination Date or the date on which the Executive becomes employed by a new employer, the Company shall, at its expense, provide the Executive with medical, dental, life insurance, disability,
accidental death and dismemberment benefits and other welfare benefits (“Insurance Benefits”) at the highest level provided to the Executive immediately prior to the Change of Control, provided, however, that if the Executive becomes
employed by a new employer which maintains Insurance Benefits that either (i) do not cover the Executive with respect to a pre-existing condition which was covered under the Company’s Insurance Benefits, or (ii) do not cover the
Executive for a designated waiting period, the Executive’s coverage under the Company’s Insurance Benefits shall continue, without limitation, until the earlier of the end of the applicable period of noncoverage under the new
employer’s Insurance Benefits or the second anniversary of the Termination Date. 
  
 (c) Outplacement Counseling. If any of the events specified in Sections 3(a)(1)-(3) occur, the Company shall reimburse all reasonable expenses incurred by the Executive for professional outplacement
services by qualified consultants selected by the Executive. 
  
 (d) Payment of Earned But Unpaid Amounts. Within 10 days after any of the events specified in Sections 3(a)(1)-(3) has occurred, the Company shall pay the Executive any earned but unpaid portion of his salary, bonus or incentive
compensation or other compensation. 
  
 (e) Other Rights and
Benefits. The payment of Severance Compensation by the Company to the Executive shall not affect any other rights and benefits of the Executive provided by the Company, whether currently or in the future, prior to the Termination Date, which
rights shall be governed by the terms thereof. 
  
 (f) No
Set-Off or Counterclaim. The Company shall have no right of set-off or counterclaim in respect of any claim, debt or obligation against any payment or benefit to or for the benefit of the Executive provided for in this Agreement. 
  
 (g) Interest on Payments. Without limiting the rights of the Executive
at law or in equity, if the Company fails to make any payment required to be made hereunder on a timely basis, the Company shall pay interest on the amount thereof on demand at an annualized rate of interest equal to the Prime Rate as reported in
the Money Rates section of The Wall Street Journal (or in the successor to such section or, if there is no such successor section, the most comparable Prime Rate), compounded daily (but in no event shall such interest exceed the highest
lawful rate). 
  
 (h) Vesting of Stock Awards. If within
six months prior to a Change of Control and in anticipation of a Change of Control, the Executive’s employment is involuntarily terminated by the Company (except for Cause) or if any of the events in Section 3(a)(2)(ii) of this Agreement
occur and Executive terminates her employment, all 








 
stock option grants, awards of restricted stock or restricted stock units, and all other forms of stock awards previously granted to the Executive shall vest
immediately and be nonforfeitable. 
  
 4. Gross-up.

  
 (a) If it is determined that any payment, benefit or
distribution (or combination thereof) by the Company, or by any trust established by the Company for the benefit of its employees, to or for the benefit of the Executive (whether payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (a
“Payment”)) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, or any successor provision, and any interest or penalties are incurred by the Executive with respect to such excise tax (the excise
tax, together with interest and penalties thereon, hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”), the Executive shall be entitled to receive an additional payment (a “Gross-up Payment”) in an amount such that after
payment by the Executive of all taxes, including, without limitation, any income taxes and the Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-up Payment, the Executive shall retain an amount of the Gross-up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the
Payment. 
  
 (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 4(c),
all determinations required to be made under this Section 4, including whether and when a Gross-up Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made
by such nationally recognized certified public accounting firm or law firm as may be designated by the Executive (the “Firm”). All fees and expenses of the Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. Any Gross-up Payment, as determined
pursuant to this Section 4, shall be paid by the Company to the Executive within five days after the receipt of the Firm’s determination. If the Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable by the Executive, it shall so indicate to the
Executive in writing. Any determination by the Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive. 
  
 (c) The Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the payment by the
Company of a Gross-up Payment. Such notification shall be given no later than 10 business days after the Executive is informed in writing of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature of the claim and the date of requested payment. The
Executive shall not pay the claim prior to the expiration of the 30-day period following the date on which it gives notice to the Company. If the Company notifies the Executive in writing prior to the expiration of the period that it desires to
contest such claim, the Executive shall: 
  
 (1)
give the Company any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to such claim; 
  
 (2) take such action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to time,
including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the Company; 







 (3) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order to effectively contest such claim;
and 
  
 (4) permit the Company to participate in
any proceedings relating to such claim. 
  
 Without limitation on the foregoing
provisions of this Section 4(c), the Company shall control all proceedings taken in connection with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the
taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole option, either direct the Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and the Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to a
determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts as the Company shall direct, provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses (including
additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed
as a result of the contest; and provided further, that if the Company directs the Executive to pay any claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of the payment to the Executive, on an interest-free basis, and shall indemnify
and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income tax (including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to the advance or with respect to any imputed income with respect to the advance.

  
 (d) If the Company exhausts its remedies pursuant to
Section 4(c) and the Executive thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Firm shall determine the amount of the Gross-up Payment required, and such payment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of the
Executive. 
  
 (e) If, after the receipt by the Executive of an
amount advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 4(c), the Executive becomes entitled to receive any refund with respect to such claim, the Executive shall promptly pay to the Company the amount of such refund (together with any interest paid
or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 4(c), a determination is made that the Executive is not entitled to any refund with respect to
such claim, and the Company does not notify the Executive in writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund within 30 days after such determination, then such advance shall be forgiven and shall not be required to be repaid and the amount of
such advance shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of the Gross-up Payment required to be paid. 
  
 5. No Mitigation Required. In the event that this Agreement or the employment of the Executive is terminated, the Executive shall not be obligated
to mitigate his damages or the amount of any payment provided for in this Agreement by 








 
seeking other employment or otherwise, and except for the termination of benefits pursuant to Section 3(b), the acceptance of employment elsewhere after
termination shall in no way reduce the amount of Severance Compensation payable hereunder. 
  
 6. Successors; Binding Agreement. 
  
 (a) The Company will require any successor and any corporation or other legal person (including any “person” as defined in Section 2(d)(iv) of this Agreement) which is in control of such successor (as
“control” is defined in Regulation 230.405 or any successor rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company (by purchase, merger,
consolidation or otherwise), by agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Executive, to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform
it if no such succession had taken place. Failure of the Company to obtain such agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall be a material breach of this Agreement by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such
assumption shall not in any way affect or limit the liability of the Company under the terms of this Agreement or release the Company from any obligation hereunder. As used in this Section 6, “Company” shall mean the Company and any
successor to its business and/or all or substantially all of its assets which executes and delivers the agreement provided for in this Section 6 or which otherwise becomes bound by all the terms and provisions of this Agreement by operation of
law. 
  
 (b) This Agreement and all rights of the Executive
hereunder shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. 
  
 7. Indemnification; Director’s and Officer’s Liability
Insurance. The Executive shall, after a Change of Control, retain all rights to indemnification under applicable law or under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, as they may be amended or restated from time to time. In
addition, the Company shall maintain director’s and officer’s liability insurance on behalf of the Executive, at the level in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control, for the five years following the Change of Control.

  
 8. Notice. For purposes of this Agreement, notices and
all other communications provided for in the Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered or received after being mailed by United States registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid,
addressed as follows: 








	 	If  to  the  Company:	BearingPoint, Inc. 

 1676 International
Drive 
 McLean, Virginia 22102 
 Attn: General Counsel 
  
 If to the Executive: 
  
 or to such other address as any party may have furnished to the other in writing in accordance herewith, except that notices of change of address shall be effective only
upon receipt. 
  
 9. Miscellaneous. No provisions of this
Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in a writing signed by the Executive and the Company. No waiver by either party of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this
Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise, express or implied, unless
specifically referred to herein with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement have been made by either party which are not set forth expressly in this Agreement. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement
shall be governed by the substantive laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its principles of conflicts of law. 
  
 10. Validity. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability
of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect. 
  
 11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
  
 12. Employment Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall create any
express or implied right or duty on the part of the Company or the Executive to have the Executive remain in the employment of the Company prior to or after any Change of Control. 
  
 13. Withholding of Taxes. The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement all federal, state,
local or other taxes as shall be required by law. 
  
 14.
Disputes. Any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be resolved, at the sole option of the Executive, either by litigation or by arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration
Association then in effect. Judgment may be entered on an arbitrator’s award relating to this Agreement in any court having jurisdiction. The exclusive venue for such litigation or arbitration shall, 








 
at the sole option of the Executive, be in McLean, Virginia or the county where the Executive then resides. 
  
 15. Legal Fees and Expenses. It is the intent of the Company that the
Executive not be required to incur the expenses associated with the enforcement of his rights under this Agreement by litigation or other legal action because the cost and expense thereof would substantially detract from the benefits intended to be
extended to the Executive in this Agreement. Accordingly, if it should appear to the Executive that the Company has failed to comply with any of its obligations under the Agreement or in the event that the Company or any other person takes any
action to declare the Agreement void or unenforceable, or institutes any litigation designed to deny, or to recover from, the Executive the benefits intended to be provided to the Executive hereunder, the Company irrevocably authorizes the Executive
from time to time to retain counsel of his choice, at the expense of the Company as hereafter provided, to represent the Executive in connection with the initiation or defense of any litigation or other legal action, whether by or against the
Company or any director, officer, stockholder or any other person, in any jurisdiction. The Company shall pay, within 10 days of a written request by the Executive, and be solely responsible for, any and all attorneys’ and related fees and
expenses incurred by the Executive as a result of any actual or threatened litigation or other legal action relating to this Agreement or any provision thereof or as a result of the Company or any person raising any issue with respect to this
Agreement or any provision thereof, including without limitation, contesting the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any provision thereof. 
  
 16. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Executive is intended to be exclusive of any other right
or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of
any right or remedy under this Agreement, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 







 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement effective on the day and year first above
written.
