 Exhibit 10.2 
 SEPARATION OF EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE 
 THIS SEPARATION OF EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE (the “Agreement”) is made this 27th day of April 2012, by and between Atkore International Inc. (“Company”) and James Pinto
(“Employee”). 
 WHEREAS, Employee is employed by the Company as Global Vice President Operations & Supply
Chain; and 
 WHEREAS, the Company is restructuring its business and is eliminating Employee’s job position; and

 WHEREAS, Employee’s employment with the Company will terminate effective May 4, 2012 (“Separation Date”);
and 
 WHEREAS, the Company has offered to provide Employee with separation benefits in exchange for Employee’s acceptance
and compliance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY AGREED by and between Employee and the Company
as follows: 
 1. Consideration. (a) Separation Pay. The Company will provide Employee with separation
pay in the amount of $145,000 (which is equivalent to twenty-six (26) weeks of Employee’s current base salary), less applicable withholding taxes and FICA. The separation pay will be paid in bi-weekly direct deposit payments on the dates
corresponding to the Company’s standard payroll practices, provided Employee complies with the terms of this Agreement. No payments shall be made until the seven (7) day revocation period described in paragraph 13 of this Agreement has
expired and this Agreement becomes legally binding. Employee understands and agrees that the payments, benefits and agreements provided in this Agreement are over and above the benefits to which Employee would otherwise be entitled by law, contract
or the under the policies and practices of Company, and that this consideration is being provided in exchange for Employee’s entering into and complying with the terms of this Agreement. 

(b) Annual Incentive Bonus. The Company will provide Employee with pro-rata payment of his 2010 annual incentive bonus at the
target level set forth in the applicable annual incentive bonus plan. 
 (c) Medical, Prescription Drug, Dental and Health
Care Flexible Spending Account Benefits. Employee shall be able to continue to receive the medical, prescription drug, dental and/or health care flexible spending account coverage, if any, Employee had in place before Employee’s Separation
Date (or generally comparable coverage) provided Employee actively enrolls for COBRA coverage within 60 days of receiving their initial COBRA notice. The cost for COBRA coverage during the 26 week period represented by Employee’s Separation Pay
(“Separation Pay Period”) will be equal to the amount that active employees are required to pay to the Company for similar coverage. Employee will receive election forms and other notices regarding this COBRA coverage from the
Company’s third-party administrator, ADP. 







 
Employee shall be responsible for completing the COBRA election forms and paying the specified amount to initiate and to continue COBRA coverage during the Separation Pay Period. Employee’s
failure to complete the necessary forms or to pay the specified amount shall result in the cessation of the applicable medical, prescription drug, dental and/or health care flexible spending account coverage for Employee and Employee’s spouse
or domestic partner and dependents. The medical, prescription drug, dental and/or health care flexible spending account coverage will be for Employee and, where applicable, Employee’s spouse or domestic partner and dependents, under similar
rights afforded to employees of the Company generally. Upon expiration of the Separation Pay Period, Employee’s coverage as described above will cease. Employee may have rights to continue medical and dental coverage for any remaining time
afforded under Employee’s COBRA rights but at the full COBRA premium permitted under the plans. Any questions regarding these plans should be directed to the COBRA administrator, ADP, at 800-526-2720 (www.benedirect.adp.com) 

(d) Equity Awards. The Company agrees to pay Employee the gross sum of $250,000 to re-purchase the 25,000 shares of Company stock
that Employee purchased pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Stock Incentive Plan. Such payment shall be made within thirty (30) days after the Separation Date via check or wire transfer to Employee’s designated bank account.
Employee agrees that the re-purchase price of $10.00 per share is equal to the price at which Employee purchased such shares and represents the fair market value of the shares as of the Separation Date. All vested stock options held by the Employee
as of the Separation Date will be treated in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan and/or individual option agreements under which such grants were issued. To confirm the number of stock options available to Employee, the remaining
exercise period or to exercise any vested stock options, Employee may call UBS at 877-461-7802 or visit the UBS website at www.ubs.com/onesource/tel. Employee shall be solely responsible for any tax liability arising from the repurchase of shares or
the exercise of any options. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the relevant stock plan document, the plan document shall govern. 
 (e) Outplacement Assistance. The Company shall pay the cost of outplacement services provided by BPI Group to assist Employee with his career transition for a period of one year from the Separation
Date. The vendor and specific program shall be determined by the Company. In accordance with Company policy, cash will not be paid in lieu of outplacement services. 
 (f) Retirement Savings and Investment Plan. Contributions to the Company’s Retirement Savings and Investment Plan (“RSIP”) shall cease as of Employee’s Separation Date. To
request changes to Employee’s RSIP account(s) or to obtain additional information, Employee should call Atkore Employee Service Center at 1-877-964-4333. 
 RSIP contributions and loan repayments will cease as of Employee’s Separation Date. If Employee has an outstanding loan under the RSIP, Employee will have ninety (90) days from the Separation
Date to repay in full the outstanding loan balance and finance charges in order to avoid current taxation on the amount of the loan. Should the repayment not occur, the RSIP will consider Employee to be in default of the loan and the outstanding
amount of the loan will be treated as a distribution to Employee. The distribution would be currently taxable under 

  
 2 








 
applicable Internal Revenue Service rules. In the event that Employee elects not to repay the loan, Employee may avoid current taxation by making a rollover contribution of the outstanding loan
balance to an Individual Retirement Account (“IRA”) in accordance with applicable tax law. 
 (g) Life
Insurance. Employee’s life insurance coverage will end on the last day of the month during which Employee is last actively at work for the Company, or as otherwise provided by the plan document. Employee may be eligible to convert basic
term life, personal and family accident, accidental death and dismemberment, and supplemental life policies to individual policies. Conversion information is available by contacting Prudential at (800) 778-3827. Employee must apply and pay the
first conversion premium within 31 days of the end of such coverage, if such conversion is available. Employee’s business travel accident insurance coverage will end on Employee’s last active day at work, and there is no conversion
available for this coverage. 
 (h) Disability Insurance and Sick Pay. Employee’s disability insurance coverage will
end on Employee’s Separation Date. Sick pay will not be granted after Employee’s last active day at work. 
 (i)
Return of Company Property. Employee is required to return all Company property on or prior to the Separation Date. Company property includes, but is not limited to, security badges, office keys, computers, laptops, cellular telephones,
Blackberry and other hand-held electronic devices, software, diskettes, compact disks, product samples, cases, company files and records, brochures, papers, notes, and other documents, and all copies of same, relating to the Company, its business,
customers or suppliers, that Employee has acquired by virtue of Employee’s employment. As of the Separation Date, the Company will make arrangements to remove, terminate or transfer any and all business communication lines including network
access, cellular phone, fax line and other business numbers. 
 (j) Other Benefits. Employee shall receive any amounts
earned, accrued or owing but not yet paid to Employee as of Employee’s Separation Date, including, but not limited to, unused accrued vacation, and unpaid base salary earned by Employee through the Separation Date, payable in a lump sum. Any
benefits accrued or earned will be distributed in accordance with the terms of the applicable benefit plans and programs of the Company. 
 (k) Tax Status of Benefits. In the event that provision of any of the benefits listed above would adversely affect the tax status of the applicable plan or benefits, the Company, in its sole
discretion, may elect to pay to Employee cash in lieu of such coverage in an amount equal to the Company’s contribution or average cost of providing such coverage. 
 (l) Total Benefits. After the date of this Agreement, Employee will not be eligible to receive any other salary, bonus or benefits from the Company other than as provided in this paragraph 1.

 (m) Reduction of Separation Pay. The Company reserves the right to make deductions in accordance with applicable law
for any monies owed to the Company by Employee or the value of the Company property that Employee has retained in his/her possession.

 (n) Supplemental Savings and Retirement Plan (SSRP). If
applicable, Employee’s participation in the SSRP will cease on Employee’s Separation Date. The portion of Company contributions which have not vested as of the Employee’s Separation Date will be forfeited. Employee will be paid out
according to the elections made under the plan, provided Employee’s account balance is at least $5,000, otherwise Employee’s account balance will be paid out in a lump sum. Payments are subject to plan provisions and will occur on the
February 28th following Employee’s Separation
Date. If Employee has any questions regarding Employee’s balance under the SSRP, Employee should call Atkore Employee Service Center at 1-877-964-4333.

Plan grandfathered account balance now maintained under the SSRP will be made according to the terms and provisions of the Deferred Compensation Plan, as in effect on December 31, 2004. Payments are subject to plan provisions and will occur on
the February 28th following Employee’s

(collectively, “Releasees”) 

  
 4 








 
from all causes of action, suits, debts, claims and demands whatsoever in law or in equity, which Employee ever had, now has, or hereafter may have, whether known or unknown, or which
Employee’s heirs, executors, or administrators may have, by reason of any matter, cause or thing whatsoever, from the beginning of Employee’s employment to the date of execution of this Agreement, and particularly, but without limitation

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by law, and subject to the provisions of paragraph 3(d) below, Employee represents and affirms that
(i) Employee has not filed or caused to be filed on Employee’s behalf any claim for relief against the Company or any Releasee and, to the best of Employee’s knowledge and belief, no outstanding claims for relief have been filed or
asserted against the Company or any Releasee on Employee’s behalf; and (ii) Employee has no knowledge of any improper, unethical or illegal conduct or activities that Employee has not already reported to any supervisor, manager, department

 (c) The release of claims described in paragraphs 2(a) and (b) of this

(ii) providing information to, or testifying or otherwise assisting in any investigation or proceeding brought by any federal regulatory or law enforcement agency or legislative body, any self-regulatory organization, or the Company’s
designated legal, compliance or human resources officers; or (iii) filing, testifying, participating in or otherwise assisting in a proceeding relating to an alleged violation of any federal, state or municipal law relating to fraud, or any

been obtained by Employee during Employee’s employment by the Company or a subsidiary. The foregoing shall not apply to information that (i) was known to the public prior to its disclosure to Employee; (ii) becomes known to the public
subsequent to disclosure to Employee through no wrongful act of Employee or any representative of Employee; or (iii) Employee is required to disclose by applicable law, regulation or legal process (provided that Employee provides the Company

applicable laws. 
 (e) Survival of Provisions. The obligations contained in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 and 10,
and any other paragraph that contains obligations to be performed following the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company, shall survive such termination and shall be fully enforceable thereafter.

Employee’s employment relationship with the Company, and that the Company has no obligation to employ, or retain the services of Employee in the future. 
 5. Non-Disparagement. Employee agrees that Employee will not disparage or subvert the Company, or make any statement reflecting negatively on the Company, its affiliated corporations or
entities, or any of their present or former officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives, including, but not limited to, any matters relating to the operation or management of the Company, Employee’s employment and the termination
of Employee’s employment, irrespective of the truthfulness or falsity of such statement. Company agrees that its response to inquiries from Employee’s prospective employers will be limited solely to Employee’s dates of employment,
last job title and final salary rate. 
 6. Non-Disclosure. Subject to the provisions of paragraphs 3(c), Employee
agrees not to disclose the terms of this Agreement to anyone, except his/her spouse, attorney and, as necessary, tax/financial advisor, provided they agree to be bound by this confidentiality obligation. It is expressly understood that any violation

 Employee further agrees that the Company shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, without the necessity of proving actual damages, as well as to an equitable accounting of all
