ARTICLE 3
COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS
3.1    Base Salary


The Company shall pay the Executive an annualized base salary ("Annual Base Salary") of U.S. $425,000, retroactive to September 1, 2015 and payable pursuant to the Company’s regular payroll practices for its executives in effect at the time, subject to applicable withholdings and deductions.

3.2    Executive Short-Term Incentive Award 


The Executive shall be eligible to participate in an annual performance incentive plan under terms and conditions no less favorable than those applicable to other senior executives of the Company; provided that the Executive's target short-term incentive shall not be less than sixty percent (60%) of his Annual Base Salary, effective November 1, 2015.

The annual performance bonus, if any, will be paid to the Executive by the Company in the same manner and payment period generally applicable under the annual performance incentive plan and state law, but in no event later than two and a half months after the later of (i) the end of the applicable performance period, or (ii) the end of the calendar year in which the performance period ends. Nothing contained in this Section 3.2 will guarantee the Executive any specific amount of incentive compensation, or prevent the Chief Executive Officer or Compensation Committee from establishing or modifying performance goals and compensation targets applicable only to the Executive.  The decision as to whether to have a short-term incentive plan or to fund such a plan, as well as the decision as to whether Executive shall receive a short-term incentive payment, or any short-term incentive is at the Company’s sole discretion.

3.7    Sarbanes-Oxley Act Loan Prohibition


To the extent that any Company or Patheon Group benefit, program, practice, arrangement or this Agreement would or might otherwise result in the Executive’s receipt of an illegal loan (the “Loan”), the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Executive with a substitute for the Loan that is lawful and of at least equal value to the Executive. If this cannot be done, or if doing so would be significantly more expensive to the Company than making the Loan, the Company need not make the Loan to the Executive or provide any substitute for it.

	(a)
	The Executive's employment shall be immediately terminated without notice by the Company upon the death of the Executive.  




		
	(b)
	If the Company determines that the Disability of the Executive has occurred during the Executive’s employment, it shall give to the Executive written notice in accordance with Section 7.4 of this Agreement of its intention to terminate the Executive's employment.  In such event, the Executive's employment shall terminate effective on the thirtieth (30th) day after receipt of such notice by the Executive.  




4.2    Cause  


The Executive's employment with the Company may be terminated with or without Cause.  


4.3    Good Reason


The Executive's employment with the Company may be terminated by the Executive with or without Good Reason.  


4.4    Notice of Termination













Any termination by the Company for Cause, or by the Executive for Good Reason, shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party in accordance with Section 7.4.  For purposes of this Agreement, a "Notice of Termination" means a written notice which (a) indicates the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, (b) to the extent applicable, sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Executive's employment under the provision so indicated and (c) if the Date of Termination (as defined below) is other than the date of receipt of such notice, specifies the termination date (which date shall be not more than 30 days after the giving of such notice).  The failure by the Company or the Executive to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Cause or Good Reason shall not waive any right of the Company or the Executive, respectively, hereunder or preclude the Company or the Executive, respectively, from asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing the Company's or the Executive’s rights hereunder.


4.5    Date of Termination  


"Date of Termination" means (a) if the Executive's employment is terminated by the Company for Cause, or by the Executive for Good Reason, the date of receipt of the Notice of Termination or any later date specified therein, as the case may be, (b) if the Executive's employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause or Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the date on which the Company notifies the Executive of such termination and (c) if the Executive's employment is terminated by reason of Disability, the Date of Termination shall be the date thirtieth (30) day after receipt of the written notice given to the Executive by the Company in accordance with Section 4.1(b).  The Company and the Executive shall take all steps necessary (including with regard to any post-termination services by the Executive) to ensure that any termination described in this Section 4.5 constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, and the date on which such separation from service takes place shall be the “Date of Termination.”  


4.6    Resignation from All Positions  


Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, upon the termination of the Executive's employment for any reason, unless otherwise requested by the Board of Directors, the Executive shall immediately resign as of the Date of Termination from all positions that he or she holds or has ever held with the Patheon Group (and with any other entities with respect to which the Patheon Group has requested the Executive to perform services).  The Executive hereby agrees to execute any and all documentation to effectuate such resignations upon request by the Company, but he or she shall be treated for all purposes as having so resigned upon termination of his employment, regardless of when or whether he or she executes any such documentation.


ARTICLE 5
OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY UPON TERMINATION


5.1    Good Reason; Other than for Cause 


If the Company shall terminate the Executive's employment other than for Cause, death or Disability, or if the Executive shall terminate the Executive’s employment for Good Reason: 


		
	(a)
	The Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Executive in a lump sum in cash the sum of: (i) that portion of the Executive's Annual Base Salary earned but not previously paid through the Date of Termination; (ii) reimbursement of expenses incurred on or before the Date of Termination in accordance with Section 3.7, above; and (iii) any accrued vacation pay, in each case to the extent not theretofore paid (the sum of the amounts described in clauses (i), (ii), and (iii) shall be hereinafter referred to as the "Accrued Obligations").  The Accrued Obligations shall be paid on the regular payday following the Date of Termination.  




		
	(b)
	Subject to Executive’s full compliance with Executive’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement, including but not limited to Sections 4.6, 5.3, 6 and Schedule A, the Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the Executive: 




		
	i.
	An amount equal to the aggregate of twelve (12) months of the Executive's Annual Base Salary, which amount is not wages for labor performed and may be withheld for any prior breach or breach during the period of such payments by Executive of his obligations in this Agreement or any applicable confidentiality, inventions assignment and return of property or similar undertaking;   


		
	ii.
	An amount, which shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee exercising good faith and paid at the same time as the Company pays its incentives to management generally under the applicable plan, for the performance incentive set forth in Section 3.2 above for the annual performance period fully completed prior to the Date of Termination. For the avoidance of doubt, such incentive shall not be paid pro rata 













for a performance period that is not fully complete prior to the Date of Termination and shall be in accordance with the terms of the applicable incentive plan in effect at the time of termination.


Such amount in b(i) above shall be paid in twelve (12) and six (6) equal monthly installments, respectively, payable as of the first day of the month beginning within sixty (60) days after the Date of Termination or any later date set forth below; provided, however, if the sixty (60) day period spans two (2) calendar years, the said payments shall commence in the second calendar year.  Installments shall be made during the “short-term deferral period” following the termination of employment, as such term is defined in Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”).  At the conclusion of this short-term deferral period, the installment payments shall continue to the extent that the Executive’s  remaining severance payment does not exceed two times the lesser of (i) the executive’s annual compensation or (ii) the compensation limit in effect under Section 401(a)(17) of the Code for the calendar year including the date of termination (the “Two Times Limit”); provided, however, to the extent the remaining severance payments exceed the Two Times Limit, then the installment payments which are below the Two Times Limit shall be paid to the Executive.  Any remaining severance payments which exceed the Two Times Limit shall continue to paid in installments unless (i) the Executive is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A of the Code at the time of his termination of employment with the Company and (ii) the deferral of further payments payable hereunder as a result of such termination of employment is necessary in order to prevent any accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, in which case,  the Company will defer the commencement of the payment of any such payments (without any reduction in such payments ultimately paid to the Executive) until the date that is six months following his termination of employment with the Company (or the earliest date as is permitted under Section 409A of the Code). If the Executive dies during such six (6) month period, then payments shall commence within thirty (30) days after the Executive's death).  All payments to be made upon a termination of employment under this agreement may only be made upon a “separation from service” within the meaning of such term under Section 409A of the Code.


		
	(c)
	To the extent not theretofore paid or provided, the Company (or Patheon, as the case may be) shall pay or provide, or cause to be paid or provided, to the Executive any other amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided or which the Executive is eligible to receive under any plan, program, policy or practice or contract or agreement of the Patheon Group (such other amounts and benefits shall be hereinafter referred to as the "Other Benefits"), in accordance with the terms and normal procedures of each such plan, program, policy or practice or contract or agreement, based on earned, accrued or vested benefits through the Date of Termination.




If the Executive receives payments and benefits pursuant to this Section 5.1, then the Executive shall not be entitled to any other severance pay or benefits under any severance plan, program or policy of any member of the Patheon Group, unless otherwise specifically provided therein in a specific reference to this Agreement;  provided, however, in the event any payment is made, or required to be made, under any such severance plan, program or policy, then the amounts payable under this Section 5.1 shall be reduced by such amount.  


5.2    Death or Disability; Cause; Other than for Good Reason  


If the Executive's employment is terminated due to death, Disability or for Cause, or if the Executive voluntarily terminates his employment without Good Reason or for retirement, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to the Executive other than the obligation to pay to the Executive his Accrued Obligations through the Date of Termination and the Other Benefits earned, accrued, or vested through the Date of Termination, in each case to the extent not theretofore paid or provided.  All Accrued Obligations shall be paid to the Executive in accordance with Section 5.1(a) and the Other Benefits shall be paid to the Executive in accordance with Section 5.1(c).  The Company (and the Patheon Group) will have no further obligation to pay any compensation of any kind (including, without limitation, any bonus or portion of a bonus that otherwise may have become due and payable to the Executive with respect to the year in which such Date of Termination occurs), or severance payment of any kind, nor will the Company (or the Patheon Group) have any obligation to make any payment in lieu of notice.


5.3    Release  


Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall only be obligated to make the payments under Section 5.1(b) if, in addition to the other contingencies under Section 5.1(b):  (a) within the 21-day period after the Date of Termination, the Executive executes a general release, in a form provided by the Company, of all current or future claims, known or unknown, against the Patheon Group, its officers, directors, shareholders, limited partners, members, employees and agents arising on or before the date of the release, including but not limited to all claims arising out of the Executive's employment with the Patheon Group or the termination of such employment, and (b) the Executive does not negotiate substantially the terms of the release or revoke the release during the seven-day revocation period prescribed by the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, or any similar revocation period, if applicable.  The Company shall be obligated to provide the release to the Executive promptly following the Date of Termination.

7.8    Section 409A of the Code


		
	(a)
	Although the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement are intended to be exempt from the application of, or, to the extent subject thereto, comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”), the tax treatment of the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement is not warranted or guaranteed. Specifically, any taxable benefits or payments provided under this Agreement are intended to be separate payments that qualify for the “short-term deferral” exception to Section 409A to the maximum extent possible, and to the extent they do not so qualify, are intended to qualify for the involuntary separation pay exceptions to Section 409A to the maximum extent possible.  This Agreement shall be construed, administered, and governed in a manner that effects such intent.  Without limiting the foregoing, the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement may not be deferred, accelerated, extended, paid out or modified in a manner that would result in the imposition of an additional tax under Section 409A upon the Executive.  




		
	(b)
	Each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided under this Agreement shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A.  To the extent required by Section 409A, each reimbursement or in-kind benefit provided under this Agreement that will not be excluded from Executive's income when received is subject to the following requirements: (i) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during each calendar year cannot affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other calendar year; (ii) any reimbursement of an eligible expense shall be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred; and (iii) the right to reimbursements or in-kind benefits under this Agreement shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.  




		
	(c)
	Although the Company will endeavor to avoid the imposition of taxation, interest and penalties under Section 409A, the tax treatment of the benefits provided under this Agreement is not warranted or guaranteed.  Neither the Patheon Group nor its directors, officers, employees or advisers shall be held liable for any taxes, interest, penalties or other monetary amounts owed by the Executive or other taxpayer as a result of the Agreement.  Any reference in this Agreement to Section 409A will also include any proposed, temporary or final regulations, or any other guidance, promulgated with respect to such Section 409A by the U.S. Department of Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service.




7.9    Governing Law.  


This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Massachusetts, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Massachusetts or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Massachusetts. The state and federal courts located in Massachusetts shall be the exclusive forum for the adjudication of all disputes between the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement.  Each of the parties hereby irrevocably consents to the personal jurisdiction of the federal and state courts in the State of Massachusetts with respect to any matters arising out of this Agreement and waives any and all objections and defenses to such personal jurisdiction regardless of whether such objection or defense is based upon the venue, Massachusetts’ long-arm statute, residence and/or contacts with Massachusetts, the convenience of the witnesses and/or parties, the inconvenience of the forum, or otherwise.













NOW THEREFORE, the parties below have entered into this Agreement as of the date first written above.
