a “Change of Control” as defined in the Stockholders Agreement of HF Holdings, Inc. dated September 27, 1999, as amended and restated effective September 26, 2006, immediately terminate the TERM by sending notice in writing to

 9 














	 	9.6	 The COMPANY may immediately terminate the TERM by sending a notice in writing to the EMPLOYEE with immediate
effect: 


  

	 	9.6.1	 after a period of six (6) consecutive months (or aggregating six (6) months in any twelve
(12) month period) of absence by the EMPLOYEE from his employment as a result of sickness or disability, or 


  

	 	9.6.2	 after sixty (60) days of absence by the EMPLOYEE from his employment as a result of sickness or disability
and a certification by three (3) physicians that the EMPLOYEE is likely to be disabled for a period of at least six (6) months from the initial date of sickness or disability. One (1) such physician shall be chosen by the EMPLOYEE,
one (1) shall be chosen by the COMPANY and the third shall be chosen by the other two (2) selected physicians. The EMPLOYEE agrees that in the event of his sickness, he shall submit himself for examination by such physicians if reasonably
requested to do so by the COMPANY. For the purposes of this section, “disabled” or “disability” shall mean a temporary or permanent substantial inability because of a physical or mental illness to continue to discharge the
EMPLOYEE’s duties hereunder. 


 Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the EMPLOYEE’s compensation during
any period of the EMPLOYEE’s disability shall be reduced to the extent of any payments to the EMPLOYEE for such period under any disability plan or program maintained for the EMPLOYEE by the COMPANY for his benefit. 

 

	 	9.7	 In the event of the termination of the TERM by virtue of section 9.6 in addition to the payments described
therein, the COMPANY shall pay to the EMPLOYEE a disability severance payment equal to one (1) month’s base salary in effect at termination multiplied by the number of each calendar year, or part thereof, of the EMPLOYEE’s employment
with the COMPANY, the SUBSIDIARY, IHF Capital, Inc. or IHF Holdings, Inc. (or any predecessor companies of the COMPANY, the SUBSIDIARY, IHF Capital, Inc., or IHF Holdings, Inc.) after January 1, 1988. Such disability severance payment shall be
made in two equal installments, one within thirty (30) days of a determination that such disability payment is due to the EMPLOYEE and the second, on the six month’s anniversary of the first payment. 



  
 10 














	 	9.8	 In the event of the termination of the TERM by virtue of Section 9.4 or 9.5, and if at the end of the TERM
the COMPANY shall fail to agree to renew this Agreement on substantially the same terms, the COMPANY shall pay to the EMPLOYEE a severance payment equal to the EMPLOYEE’s annual base salary then in effect and the bonus referred to in
Section 4 hereof. In the event that the TERM is terminated prior to the end of a fiscal year (the annual anniversary of the EFFECTIVE DATE of this AGREEMENT) the bonus for the portion of TERM that is less than 12 months will nonetheless be the
full amount of the bonus for that fiscal year, and the bonus for the following 12 month period will be the same dollar amount prorated by the fraction the numerator is 12 less the number of months prior to the end of the TERM in which termination
occurs and the denominator of which is 12. By way of example, if the TERM were terminated at the end of February, the bonus for the year of termination would be the full calculated amount, even though the TERM was less than twelve (12) months.
For the remaining 12 bonus obligation, the bonus would be the same dollar calculation, prorated by a fraction of 9/12th (12 - 3 = 9 ÷ 12). Payment would be made as provided in Section 4.3 for the succeeding fiscal year. For the purposes
of this Section 9.8, the bonus referred to in Section 4.1 hereof shall be determined using EBITDA (as defined in Section 4.1 hereof) for the fiscal year immediately preceding termination and shall be paid to the EMPLOYEE within ninety
(90) days from the end of the COMPANY’s applicable fiscal year, and the base salary shall be paid to the EMPLOYEE on the same payment schedule as was applicable to the EMPLOYEE during his employment. 



 

	10	 RESTRICTIVE COVENANT 



 

	 	10.1	 EMPLOYEE shall not, during the TERM and for a period of one (1) year from its termination, either directly
or indirectly, individually or in partnership, carry on or be engaged in, or concerned with or interested in, in any capacity whatsoever (including that of principal, agent, shareholder (subject to section 5.6(b)), consultant, employee, lender or
surety), any person, firm, association, syndicate or company engaged in or concerned with or interested in the conception, development, fabrication, transformation, marketing, distribution, advertising, franchising or sale in Canada, the United
States or the European Economic Community, or any of them, of any products or services similar or identical to any of those manufactured, distributed, or sold by the COMPANY or any of its subsidiaries in the course of his employment with the
COMPANY, its AFFILIATES and subsidiaries. 


  

	 	10.2	 (a) EMPLOYEE shall not, during the TERM hereunder and for a period of twelve (12) months from its
termination, directly or indirectly, hire any Designated Employee. 



  
 11 














	 	(b)	 EMPLOYEE shall not, during the TERM hereunder and for a period of eighteen (18) months from its
termination, directly or indirectly, solicit, interfere with or endeavor to entice away, any Designated Employee. 


  

	 	(c)	 For purposes of this Section 10.2, the term “Designated Employee” shall mean any person if that
person is or was a Senior Employee of the COMPANY or any of its AFFILIATES or subsidiaries during the period beginning six (6) months prior to the termination of the TERM and ending (i) in the case of clause (a), twelve (12) months
thereafter and (ii) in the case of clause (b), eighteen (18) months thereafter, but shall exclude Gary E. Stevenson or any RELATIVE. For purposes of this Section 10.2 “Senior Employee” shall mean each of the two hundred
(200) most highly compensated employees of the COMPANY or any of its subsidiaries or AFFILIATES. 


  

	 	10.3	 With respect to any termination, such period shall be extended by written notice to the EMPLOYEE within thirty
(30) days of such termination by an additional two (2) years (i.e., for a total of three (3) years from the termination of EMPLOYEE’s employment) if and to the extent that the COMPANY, at its option, pays to the EMPLOYEE
additional severance pay equal to the EMPLOYEE’s base salary then in effect and the bonus referred to in Section 4 hereof, pro-rated (meaning paid in equal monthly installments each year over the
period of the payment) for the period of the payment, for an additional two (2) years beyond that required to be paid by the COMPANY to the EMPLOYEE under Section 9.8. If paid at the COMPANY’s option, such bonuses, which shall be
determined using EBITDA (as defined in Section 4.1 hereof) for the fiscal year immediately preceding termination, are to be paid within ninety (90) days from the end of the COMPANY’s applicable fiscal year, and the base salary shall
be paid to the EMPLOYEE on the same payment schedule as was applicable to the EMPLOYEE during his employment. 


  

	11	 REASONABLENESS AND REMEDIES 



 

	 	11.1	 The EMPLOYEE agrees that all the conditions and restrictions established in this Agreement are reasonable
taking into account the circumstances surrounding this Agreement. 


  

	 	11.2	 The EMPLOYEE recognizes that in the view of the serious and irreparable harm which a violation hereof would
have on the COMPANY, and without prejudice to the COMPANY’s other remedies, injunctive relief would constitute an available and appropriate remedy and, to the extent permitted by law, the COMPANY shall not be required to furnish any security or
bond in respect thereof.

termination occurred plus subsequently accruing compensation. In this regard, the COMPANY agrees, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to indemnify the EMPLOYEE from and against any liability the EMPLOYEE may have in excess of that provided in
the immediately preceding sentence (i) hereunder or (ii) for any other claim the COMPANY or any of its AFFILIATES may have against the EMPLOYEE. However, nothing in this Section 13 shall limit the EMPLOYEE’s liability to the

EMPLOYEE, (iii) in respect of any agreement listed on Schedule I of the Old Employment Agreement (as defined in that separate Termination Agreement among IHF Capital, Inc., IHF Holdings, Inc., SUBSIDIARY and EMPLOYEE, dated September 27,
1999 (the “Termination Agreement”)) or any agreement heretofore or hereafter entered into by the EMPLOYEE after the date of the Old Employment Agreement, (iv) in respect of any claim or cause of action asserted by the COMPANY or any
of its AFFILIATES as a counterclaim (to the extent of any liability the COMPANY or any of its AFFILIATES may have by reason of the EMPLOYEE claim in question) or as a set off, or (v) under Section 7, 9.3 or 10 of this Agreement or under

of its AFFILIATES, IHF Capital, Inc. or any of its AFFILIATES (as defined in the Old Employment Agreement) under the Non-Competition Agreement and of the liability of the EMPLOYEE to IHF Capital, Inc. or any

	19	 GOVERNING LAW; ARBITRATION 



 

	 	19.1	 This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic substantive laws of the State
of Utah, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule that would cause the application of the domestic substantive laws of any other jurisdiction; provided, however, that any dispute relating to the
provisions of Section 19.2 shall be governed by the United States Arbitration Act as then in force. 


  

	 	19.2	 Except solely as set forth in Section 19.4, each dispute, difference, controversy or claim arising in
connection with or related or incidental to, or question occurring under, this Agreement or the subject matter hereof shall be finally settled under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) by an
arbitral tribunal composed of three (3) arbitrators, at least one (1) of whom shall be an attorney experienced in corporate transactions, appointed by agreement of the parties in accordance with said Rules. In the event the parties fail to
agree upon a panel of arbitrators from the first list of potential arbitrators proposed by the AAA, the AAA will submit a second list in accordance with said Rules. In the event the parties shall have failed to agree upon a full panel of arbitrators
from the second list, any remaining arbitrators to be selected shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with said Rules. If, at the time of the arbitration, the parties agree in writing to submit the dispute to a single arbitrator, said single
arbitrator shall be appointed by agreement of the parties in accordance with the foregoing procedure, or, failing such agreement, by the AAA in accordance with said Rules. The foregoing arbitration proceedings may be commenced by any party by notice
to all other parties. 


  

	 	19.3	 The place of arbitration shall be Salt Lake City, Utah. 



 

	 	19.4	 The parties hereto exclude any right of appeal to any court on the merits of the dispute. The provisions of
this Section 19 may be enforced in any court having jurisdiction over the award of any of the parties or any of their respective assets and judgment on the award (including without limitation equitable remedies) granted in any arbitration
hereunder may be entered in any such court. Nothing contained in this Section 19 shall prevent any party from seeking interim measures of protection in the form of pre-award attachment of assets or
preliminary or temporary equitable relief. 



  
 15 














	 	19.5	 To the extent not prohibited by applicable law which cannot be waived, each of the parties hereto hereby
waives, and covenants that he or it will not assert (whether as plaintiff, defendant, or otherwise), any right to trial by jury in any forum in respect of any issue, claim, demand, cause of action, action, suit or proceeding arising out of or based
upon this Agreement or the subject matter hereof, in each case whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether in contract or tort or otherwise. Any of the parties hereto may file an original counterpart or a copy of this Section 19.5
with any court as written evidence of the consent of each of the parties hereto to the waiver of his or its right to trial by jury. 


  

	 	19.6	 Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that he or it has been informed by each other party that the provisions
of Section 19 constitute a material inducement upon which such party is relying and will rely in entering into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. 



 

	20	 BINDING ON HEIRS 



 

	 	20.1	 This Agreement binds and inures to the benefit of the parties, their heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and permitted assigns (subject to Section 9.2(b)). 


  

	21	 ENTIRE AGREEMENT 



 

	 	21.1	 This Agreement embodies the entire Agreement between the parties hereto concerning the subject matters
mentioned herein and supersedes all previous discussions, correspondence, understandings or agreements, whether written or oral, with respect to such matters, except as provided in the Termination Agreement. For purposes of clarity and for the
avoidance of doubt, the Original Agreement, (including as applicable, the First Amendment to the Employment Agreement, the Second Amendment to the Employment Agreement and the Amended and Restated Agreement) will apply as respectively in effect
during the applicable periods of the EMPLOYEE’S employment with the COMPANY to the rights and obligations of the EMPLOYEE and the COMPANY during each of such times. This Agreement shall constitute an agreement between employer and employee of
the type referred to in Section 1, Chapter 28, Title 34 of the Utah Code, Annotated. 


  

	22	 ATTORNEY’S FEES 



 

	 	22.1	 In the event that any party hereto shall be found in default or in breach of this Agreement pursuant to
arbitral or judicial proceedings, such party shall be liable to pay all reasonable attorney’s fees, court costs and other related collection costs and expenses incurred by the non-defaulting or non-breaching party in pursuing its rights hereunder.
