The Term of this Agreement shall be subject to extension by mutual written agreement of the Parties, for a period of any length as they may mutually agree, in which case the Term will continue through the end of such extension.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Term of this Agreement shall be terminated before the date it would otherwise expire if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 3(b) hereof.
(b)Termination.  This Agreement and the employment of the Executive by the Company hereunder shall only be terminated: (i) by expiration of the Term; (ii) by the Company without Cause; (iii) by the Executive for Good Reason; (iv) by the Company or the Executive due to the Disability of the Executive; (v) by the Company for Cause; (vi) by the Executive for other than Good Reason or Disability, upon at least sixty (60) days prior written notice to the Company; or (vii) upon the death of the Executive.  Notice of termination for any reason by any party shall be given sixty (60) prior to termination in writing and shall specify the basis for termination and the effective date of termination.  Further, notice of termination for Cause by the Company or Good Reason by the Executive shall specify the facts alleged to constitute termination for Cause or Good Reason, as applicable and Executive shall be provided with thirty (30) days from the date notice is given by the Company during which Executive shall remain employed to have an opportunity to cure the underlying justification for the termination, provided the circumstances are reasonably determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, to be susceptible to cure.  Except as provided in Section 3(c), the Executive shall not be entitled to any payments or benefits after the effective date of the termination of this Agreement, except for base salary pursuant to Section 2(a) accrued up to the effective date of termination, any unpaid earned Bonus, if any, pursuant to Section 2(b), expenses incurred before the date of termination of this Agreement that are required to be reimbursed pursuant to Section 2(d), pay for accrued but unused vacation in accordance with Company policy, any payments or benefits provided under the terms of any employee benefit and compensation agreements or plans applicable to the Executive, and any rights to payment the Executive has under Section 2(h).
(c)Termination by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason.  
(i)If the employment of the Executive is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason, the Company will pay the Executive (A) the sum of (I) his base salary pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof, plus (II) an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the target amount of the annual cash management incentive Bonus awarded to Executive for the year of termination, (or if Executive has not yet received an annual cash management 


2







incentive bonus award for the year of termination, one hundred percent (100%) of the annual cash management incentive bonus award for the prior year of termination); plus (III) a monthly amount equal to the cost of coverage (as determined pursuant to Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended, under the Company’s group health plan at the level in which Executive was enrolled at the time of termination of employment, with such sum payable in substantially equal monthly installments no less frequently than monthly for one (1) year following Executive’s termination; and (B) reasonable outplacement services to be provided by a provider selected by the Company, not to exceed the dollar limit under Code Section 402(g) for the year of Executive’s separation ($18,000 for 2017), to be used within two years of Executive’s termination of employment.    Payment of amounts under this section (other than for outplacement services) shall be made bi-weekly in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practice and shall commence within sixty (60) days following termination of employment and shall include all accrued installments from the date of termination of employment until the payment date; provided, however, that if the sixty (60) day period begins in one calendar year and ends in the following calendar year, no payment shall be made prior to the first day of such following calendar year; and provided further that if the Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A, at the date of his termination of employment, then such portion of the payments that would result in a tax under Code Section 409A if paid during the first six (6) months after termination of employment shall be withheld, starting with the payments latest in time during such six (6) month period, and paid to the Executive during the seventh month following the date of his termination of employment.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the total payments to be paid to the Executive hereunder, along with any other payments to the Executive, would result in the Executive being subject to the excise tax imposed by Code Section 4999, the Company shall reduce the aggregate payments to the largest amount which can be paid to the Executive without triggering the excise tax, but only if and to the extent that such reduction would result in the Executive retaining larger aggregate after-tax payments.  The determination of the excise tax and the aggregate after-tax payments to be received by the Executive will be made by the Company.  If payments are to be reduced, the payments made latest in time will be reduced first and if payments are to be made at the same time, non-cash payments will be reduced before cash payments.  It is possible that, after the determinations and selections made pursuant to this Subsection with respect to the excise tax under Code Section 4999, Executive will receive compensation in the aggregate more than the amount provided under this Subsection (“Overpayment”) or less than the amount provided under this Subsection (“Underpayment”). In the event that: (W) the Company determines, based upon the assertion of a deficiency by the Internal Revenue Service against either the Company or Executive which the Company believes has a high probability of success, that an Overpayment has been made or (X) it is established pursuant to a final determination of a court or an Internal Revenue Service proceeding that has been finally and conclusively resolved that an Overpayment has been made, then Executive shall pay any such Overpayment to the Company together with interest at the applicable federal rate (as defined in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code) from the date of Executive’s receipt of the Overpayment until the date of repayment.  In the event that: (Y) the Company, based upon controlling precedent or substantial authority, determines that an Underpayment has occurred or (Z) a court of competent jurisdiction determines that an Underpayment has occurred, any such Underpayment will be paid promptly by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive together with interest at the applicable federal rate (as defined in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code) from the date the amount would have otherwise been paid to Executive until the payment date.  
(ii)If the Term is not extended and the Company or the Executive terminates the Executive’s employment upon expiration of the Term, such termination shall be deemed to be a termination of the Executive’s employment by the Company without Cause.  
(iii)Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, as a condition to the payment of the amounts in this Section, the Executive shall be required to execute, return to the Company, and not revoke within the revocation period provided therein, the General Release Agreement (“Release”). The Company shall provide the Release to the Executive in sufficient time so that if the Executive timely executes and returns the Release, the revocation period will expire before the date payments of the amounts in this Section are scheduled to commence.
(d)Survival.  The covenants in Section 3 hereof shall survive the termination of this Agreement and shall not be extinguished thereby.
(e)Separation from Service.  References to termination of employment or similar terms hereunder shall mean a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A.
(f)     Public Disclosure of Termination.  The Company agrees to provide Executive with an opportunity to review and provide input with regard to any press release or other public disclosure that may be issued by the Company regarding Executive’s termination from employment for whatever reason. Agreement to Executive’s proposed comments shall not be unreasonably withheld by the Company.

	Ownership and Protection of Proprietary Information.


(a)Confidentiality.  Executive acknowledges that as part of Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive has had access to and will continue to have access to Confidential Information. Executive recognizes that in order to guard the legitimate interests of the Company, it is necessary for it to protect all Confidential Information.  Executive agrees to keep secret all Confidential Information to which Executive has had or may have access, and shall not use for Executive's own benefit or the benefit of any third party, or disclose, such Confidential Information to any person except (i) in the course of, and to the extent required to perform, Executive’s duties for the Company, (ii) to the extent required by applicable law, or (iii) to Executive’s personal advisors, to the extent such advisors agree to be bound by this provision.  This obligation is understood to be in addition to any protection the Company may be entitled to under applicable law.  Confidential Information shall not include any information that is within the public domain or enters the public domain through no act of the Executive.  Nothing in this agreement prohibits Executive from reporting an event that Executive reasonably and in good faith believes is a violation of law to the relevant law-enforcement agency, or from cooperating in an investigation conducted by such a government agency.  This may include disclosure of Trade Secret or Confidential Information within the limitations permitted by the Defend Trade Secrets Act (DTSA).  You are notified that under the DTSA, no individual will be held criminally or civilly liable under Federal or State trade secret law for disclosure of a trade secret (as defined in the Economic Espionage Act) that is: (x) made in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, and made solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or, (xi) made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal so that it is not made public. And, an individual who pursues a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of the law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and does not disclose the trade secret, except as permitted by court order..
(b)Return of Company Property.  Upon request by the Company, and in any event upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, as a prior condition to receiving any final compensation hereunder (including any payments pursuant to Section 3 hereof), the Executive will promptly deliver to the Company all property belonging to the Company, including, without limitation, all Confidential Information and Trade Secrets (and all embodiments thereof) then in the Executive’s custody, control or possession.
(c)Survival.  The covenants of confidentiality set forth herein will apply on and after the date hereof to any Confidential Information and Trade Secrets disclosed by the Company or developed by the Executive while employed or engaged by the Company prior to or after the date hereof.    The covenants restricting the use of Confidential Information and Trade Secrets will continue to apply following termination of this Agreement for so long as permitted by the governing law.
5.Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation, and Non-Disparagement Provisions.  
(a)Executive agrees that, during the Applicable Period Executive will not, directly or indirectly, whether on Executive’s own behalf, or on behalf of any third party, provide services substantially similar to the services Executive provided to the Company on the Determination Date to any Client of the Company or any Competing Business in the United States, or invest in or consult with any Client of the Company or any  Competing Business, provided however, that nothing herein shall prohibit Executive from being a passive owner of not more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding securities of any publicly traded Company, Client of the Company or any Competing Business, so long as Executive has no active participation in the business of such company.  In addition, nothing in this Section 5(a) shall prevent Executive from working for a company or business that in part competes against the Business of the Company as long as Executive will not be and is not involved in any way in any part of the company or business that competes against the Business of the Company.  For the sake of clarity, this last proviso is intended to allow Executive to work for a company or business that may have, as part of its operations, a Competing Business, as long as Executive is not involved in any way in any part of the business or operations that competes against the Business of the Company.
(b)Executive agrees that, during the Applicable Period Executive will not, directly or indirectly, on Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any third party, solicit, induce or encourage any person who was employed by the Company, to terminate their employment with the Company.
(c)Executive agrees that, during the Applicable Period Executive will not, directly or indirectly, on Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any third party, solicit any person or entity who was a customer or client of the Company or an actively sought prospective customer, client or target of the Company at any time during the twenty-four (24) month period immediately preceding the Determination Date, and with whom Executive has had Material Contact, for the purpose of offering any product or service that competes with the products or services offered by the Company within the United States .


4







(d)Executive agrees that Executive will not, directly or indirectly, whether on Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any third party, interfere with any relationship that exists between the Company and any supplier or vendor to the Company with whom Executive had Material Contact at any time during the twenty-four (24) month period immediately preceding the Determination Date or attempt to dissuade any supplier or vendor from continuing its relationship with the Company.
(e)Executive will not disparage or defame, through verbal or written statements or otherwise, the Company or any of its members, directors, officers, agents or employees or otherwise take any action which could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the reputation, business practices, good will, products and services of the Company or the personal or professional reputation of any of the Company’s members, directors, officers, agents or employees.  This non-disparagement provision shall not be construed to prevent Executive from testifying truthfully under oath in a legal or regulatory proceeding or to restrict Executive’s right and responsibility to give truthful testimony under oath or preclude Executive from participating in an investigation, filing a charge, or otherwise communicating with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the National Labor Relations Board, or other federal, state or local government agency.  The Company, in its official capacity, will direct its officers and directors not to disparage or defame Executive, through verbal or written statements or otherwise. 
(f)In the event that this Section 5 is determined by a court which has jurisdiction to be unenforceable in part or in whole, the court shall be deemed to have the authority to strike any unenforceable provision, or any part thereof or to revise any provision to the minimum extent necessary to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
(g)The provisions of this Section 5 shall survive termination of this Agreement.
(h)    Following the Executive’s termination of employment with the Company and its Affiliates, the Executive agrees to notify any subsequent employer of the restrictive covenants in Sections 4 and 5 and any other restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement.

In addition, the Executive authorizes the Company to provide a copy of the restrictive covenants sections of this Agreement to third parties, including but not limited to, the Executive's subsequent, anticipated or possible future employer.
		
	6.

The Executive agrees that the covenants, agreements, and representations contained in Sections 4 and 5 hereof are of the essence of this Agreement; that each of such covenants are reasonable and necessary to protect and preserve the interests and properties of the Company; that irreparable loss and damage will be suffered by the Company should the Executive breach any of such covenants and agreements; that each of such covenants and agreements is separate, distinct and severable not only from the other of such covenants and agreements but also from the other and remaining provisions of this Agreement; that the unenforceability of any such covenant or agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other such covenant or agreements or any other provision or provisions of this Agreement; and that, in addition to other remedies available to either party , including, without limitation, termination of the Executive’s employment for Cause, the Company and Executive shall be entitled to seek both temporary and permanent injunctions to prevent a breach or contemplated breach by the Executive of any of such covenants or agreements.  
		
	7.
	Contracts or Other Agreements with Former Business.  


The Executive represents that there are no agreements executed by the Executive with a former employer or any business with which the Executive has been associated, which prohibit the Executive during any period of time during which the Executive works for the Company from:  (a) competing with, or in any way participating in, a business which competes with the Executive’s former employer or business; (b) soliciting personnel of the former employer or business to leave such former employer’s employment or to leave such business; or (c) soliciting customers of the former employer or business on behalf of another business.

This policy provides certain rules relating to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations and other guidance thereunder (“Section 409A”) for the payment of taxable reimbursements incurred by, or in-kind benefits payable to, employees, directors and independent contractors, or other service providers, to the extent such contractors or service providers are subject to Section 409A (collectively, the “Recipients”) as a result of their relationship with __________ (the “Company”).  It does not entitle any Recipient to reimbursement or payment of an expense that is not otherwise reimbursable under another plan, policy, program or agreement (a “Plan”) of the Company, but merely provides the rules under which any taxable reimbursement or in-kind benefit may be paid to a Recipient.




If  such reimbursement or in-kind benefit is taxable to the Recipient, then the reimbursement or in-kind benefit will comply with the following rules in Section I or II:


		
	I.
	a.    The Plan must provide an objectively determinable nondiscretionary definition of expenses eligible for reimbursement or the in-kind benefits to be provided.


b.    The expense must be incurred or in-kind benefit provided during the period that the Recipient is employed with or performing services for the Company, unless a different objectively and specifically prescribed period is specified with respect to the Recipient under the applicable Plan.
c.    The amount of expenses that are eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during the Recipient’s taxable year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year.
d.    Unless a shorter time period is specified in an applicable Plan, the reimbursement must be paid to the Recipient on or before the last day of the Recipient’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred.
e.    The right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
		
	II.
	A taxable reimbursement or in-kind benefit otherwise will be made in a manner intended to avoid the imposition of tax under Section 409A.

Executive understands that nothing in this Agreement and General Release (including but not limited to the release of claims, promise not to sue, and confidentiality, cooperation, non-disparagement, and return of property provisions) (a) limits or affects his right to challenge the validity of this Release under the ADEA or the Older Worker Protection Act (“OWBPA”) or (b) prevents Executive from filing a charge or complaint with or from participating in an investigation or proceeding conducted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”), the National Labor Relations Board (“NLRB”), the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), or any other federal, state or local agency charged with the enforcement of any laws, including providing documents or other information,  or (c) prevents Executive from exercising his rights under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act (“NLRA”) to engage in protected, concerted activity with other Executives, although by signing this Agreement and General Release Executive is waiving his right to recover any individual relief (including  backpay, frontpay, reinstatement or other legal or equitable relief) in any charge, complaint, or lawsuit or other proceeding brought by Executive or on his behalf by any third party, except for any right Executive may have to receive a payment from a government agency (and not the Company) for information provided to the government agency.

This General Release also specifically excludes Executive’s rights to his vested Executive benefits. Nothing contained in this Release shall release Executive from his obligations, including any obligations to abide by the restrictive covenants in the Restrictive Covenant Agreement that continue or are to be performed following termination of employment. 




		
	(f)
	Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to restrict Executive’s right and responsibility to give truthful testimony under oath or precludes Executive from participating in an investigation, filing a charge, or otherwise communicating with the EEOC, the SEC, the NLRB, or other federal, state or local government agency.

	The provisions of this general release of claims are severable, and if any part or portion of it is found to be unenforceable, the other paragraphs shall remain fully valid and enforceable. This general release shall become effective and enforceable on the eighth day following execution by Executive, provided he does not exercise his right of revocation as described above. If Executive fails to sign this Agreement or revokes his signature, this Agreement will be without force or effect.




		
	(h)
	Nothing in this Agreement prohibits Executive from reporting an event that Executive  reasonably and in good faith believes is a violation of law to the relevant law-enforcement agency (such as the SEC, EEOC, NLRB or Department of Labor), or from cooperating in an investigation conducted by such a government agency.  This may include disclosure of trade secret or confidential information within the limitations permitted by the 2016 Defend Trade Secrets Act (DTSA).  Executive is hereby provided notice that under the  DTSA, (1) no individual will be held criminally or civilly liable under Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret (as defined in the Economic Espionage Act) that (A) is made in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and made solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or, (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal so that it is not made public; and, (2) an individual who pursues a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of the law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal, and does not disclose the trade secret, except as permitted by court order.




		
	IV.
	Non-Disparagement




Executive represents that he has not and agrees that he will not in any way disparage the Company or any Released Party, their current and former officers, directors and Executives, or make or solicit any comments, statements, or the like to the 


13







media or to others that may be considered to be derogatory or detrimental to the good name or business reputation of any of the aforementioned parties or entities.  Nothing contained in this paragraph is intended to restrict Executive’s right and responsibility to give truthful testimony under oath or precludes Executive from participating in an investigation, filing a charge, or otherwise communicating with the EEOC, SEC, the NLRB, or other federal, state or local government agency. The Company, in its official capacity, will direct its officers and directors not to disparage or defame Executive, through verbal or written statements or otherwise. 


		
	V.
	Cooperation




		
	(a)
	Executive further agrees that, subject to reimbursement of reasonable expenses, he will cooperate fully with the Company and its counsel with respect to any matter (including any pending or future litigation, investigations, or governmental proceedings) which relates to matters with which Executive was involved during his employment with the Company.

	VIII.
	Miscellaneous




		
	(a)

14







including without limitation Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) (the “two times, two year rule”). However, Executive agrees that if Executive is a “specified employee” under Section 409A, then any amounts that are considered deferred compensation subject to Section 409A will, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A, be subject to a 6-month delay provided in Section 409A.

	(h)
	Severability.  Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law.  However, if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced as though the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been herein contained.
