with the Company, effective as of the Effective Date. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 1.
Prior Agreement Terminated; Continued Employment. 
 (a) This Agreement shall govern the terms and conditions of Executive’s
employment with the Company on and after the Effective Date. As of the Effective Date, the Prior Agreement shall terminate and be of no force and effect, provided that the Prior Agreement shall continue to govern the parties’ rights and
obligations through the Effective Date. 
 (b) The Company shall continue to employ Executive, and Executive hereby accepts such continued
employment with the Company, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement for the period beginning as of the Effective Date and terminating as provided in Section 6 (the “Employment Period”). 







 2. Position and Duties. 

(a) During the Employment Period, Executive shall serve as the Chief Executive Officer of Parent and the Company, and shall have the customary
duties, responsibilities, functions and authority of those offices. During the Employment Period, Executive shall render such administrative, financial and other executive and managerial services to Parent and its Subsidiaries which are customary
for such position or are assigned to Executive by the board of directors of Parent (the “Parent Board”) from time to time consistent with Executive’s position. 

(b) During the Employment Period, Executive shall report to the Parent Board and shall devote his best efforts and his full business time and
attention (except for permitted vacation periods and periods of illness or other incapacity, subject to the Company’s policies in effect from time to time) to the business and affairs of Parent and its Subsidiaries. Executive shall perform his
duties, responsibilities and functions to Parent and its Subsidiaries hereunder to the best of his abilities in a diligent, trustworthy and professional manner and shall comply with the Company’s lawful policies and procedures in all material
respects. During the Employment Period, Executive shall not serve as an officer or director of, or otherwise perform services for compensation for, any other entity without the prior written consent of the Parent Board. Notwithstanding anything in
this Agreement to the contrary, Executive shall have the right to devote reasonable time to: (i) engage in charitable and community activities and (ii) manage his personal investments and affairs; provided that such activities do not,
interfere with or conflict with the performance of his duties hereunder. 
 (c) For purposes of this Agreement,
“Subsidiaries” shall mean any corporation or other entity of which the securities or other ownership interests having the voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors or other governing body are, at the time of
determination, owned by Parent or the Company, as applicable, directly or through one or more Subsidiaries. 
 3. Compensation and
Benefits. 
 (a) During the Employment Period, Executive’s base salary (the “Base Salary”) shall be $1,066,410.00,
payable by the Company in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices. On an annual basis, the Base Salary shall be subject to review for increase by the Parent Board (or a compensation committee thereof).
The Base Salary may not be decreased during the Employment Period. The Base Salary shall be prorated for any partial year of Executive’s employment hereunder. 

(b) In addition to the Base Salary, for each fiscal year completed during the Employment Period, Executive shall be eligible to receive an
annual bonus (the “Annual Bonus”). Executive’s target Annual Bonus shall be equal to $200,000.00, with the actual amount of the Annual Bonus, if any, to be determined by the Parent Board (or a committee thereof) based on the
achievement of performance objectives established by the Parent Board (or a committee thereof). The maximum amount of the Annual Bonus that Executive shall be eligible to earn hereunder is $500,000.00; it being understood that Executive shall be
eligible to earn an Annual Bonus in excess of the target Annual Bonus for a fiscal year only if Parent’s EBITDA for 

  
 -2- 








 
such fiscal year (as determined below) is greater than the target amount of EBITDA established for such year. The Annual Bonus (if any) payable to Executive with respect to any fiscal year of
Parent during the Employment Period shall be paid within thirty (30) days following the completion of the audit of Parent’s books and records by Parent’s auditors in respect of such fiscal year; provided, that, in all events,
such payment shall be made on or before the later of (A) two and one-half (2 1⁄2) months after the end of the calendar year in which the bonus is
earned and (B) two and one-half (2 1⁄2) months after the end of Parent’s fiscal year in respect of which such bonus is being paid. Any Annual
Bonus with respect to the year in which Executive’s employment is terminated shall be paid only if and to the extent provided in Section 6 hereof. For purposes of this Section 3(b), EBITDA shall be determined in good
faith by the Parent Board following each fiscal year based on the audited financial statements of Parent and its Subsidiaries for such fiscal year, (or to the extent that such audited financials are not available as of the payment deadlines provided
for under this Section 3(b), based on the best information then available) taking into account any extraordinary or non-recurring gains or losses. 

(c) During the Employment Period, the Company shall provide Executive with an automobile allowance of up to $2,000.00 per month, which
allowance shall be subject to such policies as may be adopted by the Company from time to time. 
 (d) In addition, during the Employment
Period, Executive shall be entitled to participate in such health, disability and other similar employee benefit plans and 401(k) plans of the Company and its Subsidiaries for which executive management employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries
are generally eligible, and Executive shall be entitled to four (4) weeks of paid vacation each calendar year in accordance with the Company’s policies, which if not taken during any year may not be carried forward to any subsequent
calendar year; provided, that the Company shall be entitled to amend or terminate any employee benefit plans which are applicable generally to the Company’s senior executives, officers or other employees. 

(e) Except as provided below, the Company shall pay the annual premiums on a life insurance policy on Executive’s life with a death
benefit of $5 million and level premiums for a period of thirty years. Executive or his designee shall be the owner of such policy and Executive (or such other owner of the policy) shall have the right to designate the beneficiary of such policy.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations of the Company to pay insurance premiums pursuant to this paragraph shall not exceed $40,000.00 per annum. If a life insurance policy as described in the first sentence of this Section 3(e)
cannot be purchased for annual premiums of $40,000.00 or less, the Company shall pay annual premiums not to exceed $40,000.00 per annum on a life insurance policy with such lesser terms regarding death benefit and/or years of level premium as
Executive may select, with the consent of the Company, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld. The Company’s obligation under this Section 3(e) to pay any such insurance premiums shall terminate on the earliest of the
first to occur: (i) the termination of the Employment Period; or (ii) the date of a “Change of Control” (as defined in the Equityholders Agreement by and among Mustang Investment Holdings L.P. and certain of its equityholders,
dated as of the date hereof (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Equityholders Agreement”). 
 (f) Executive shall
be entitled to continue to participate in the Multi Packaging Solutions, Inc. Marc Shore 2013 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan, as 

  
 -3- 








 
amended (the “Plan”) in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof (a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B). Executive acknowledges that, as of
August 15, 2013, he has been paid all amounts to which he was entitled under the Marc Shore Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan of Packaging Holdings, Inc. (dated as of April 1, 2005) (the “2005 Plan”), that the 2005
Plan has terminated in accordance with its terms, and that the Company has no further obligations thereunder. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that the Combination Transaction does not constitute a “Change in Control” as that term
is defined in the Plan. 
 (g) During the Employment Period, the Company shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable ordinary and necessary
out of pocket business expenses incurred by him in the course of performing his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement which are consistent with the Company’s policies in effect from time to time with respect to travel, entertainment
and other business expenses, subject to the Company’s requirements with respect to reporting and documentation of such expenses. In addition, the Company shall pay Executive’s reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the
negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and related documents entered into by Executive in connection with the Combination Transaction, subject to presentation of documentation of such fees to the Company. 

(h) All amounts payable to Executive as compensation hereunder (including any Annual Bonus payments) shall be subject to all required and
customary withholding by the Company. 
 4. Place of Employment. Executive’s principal place of employment shall be at the
offices of the Company located in New York, New York. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive acknowledges that he shall be required to travel to the facilities of the Company, Parent and their respective Subsidiaries and to various current and
potential customers in connection with his duties hereunder. 
 5. Board Membership. As of the date of this Agreement, and throughout
the Employment Period, Parent shall nominate, and use reasonable efforts to cause the election of Executive, to serve as a member of the Parent Board. 

6. Term. 
 (a) The
Employment Period shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall terminate on August 15, 2018; provided that (i) the Employment Period shall terminate prior to such date immediately upon Executive’s resignation (with or
without Good Reason (as defined below)), or death or upon termination by the Company due to Disability (as defined below) and (ii) the Employment Period may be terminated by the Company at any time prior to such date for Cause (as defined
below) or without Cause. Except as otherwise provided herein, any termination of the Employment Period by the Company shall be effective as specified in a written notice from the Company to Executive. Executive acknowledges the payments and other
benefits provided by the Company to Executive hereunder during the Employment Period and the Severance Period (as defined below), if applicable, and in consideration for such payments and benefits Executive agrees, among other things, to provide the
Company with at least sixty (60) days prior written notice of Executive’s resignation for other than Good Reason. 

  
 -4- 








 (b) If the Employment Period is terminated by the Company without Cause or by Executive for Good
Reason, Executive shall be entitled: (i) to continue to receive his Base Salary through the date of such termination; (ii) to receive the Annual Bonus to the extent earned under Section 3(b) but not already paid for the year
preceding that in which the date of termination occurs; (iii) to continue to receive his Base Salary as special severance payments from the date of termination through the first anniversary of the date of termination (the “Severance
Period”); and (iv) to receive a prorated Annual Bonus to the extent earned under Section 3(b) for the year in which the date of termination occurs (the extent to which performance objectives have been achieved to be
determined by the Parent Board in its reasonable discretion in a manner consistent with its determinations regarding annual bonuses earned by other senior-level Company employees for the year in which such termination occurs, but disregarding any
subjective performance goals in making its determination); provided that Executive shall be entitled to receive such payments if and only if Executive has executed and delivered to the Company the General Release substantially in form and substance
as set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto and the revocation period provided for in such General Release has expired without Executive having revoked such acceptance and only so long as Executive has not revoked or breached the provisions of
the General Release or breached the provisions of Sections 7 or 8 (provided, that Executive’s breach of such Sections or termination of payments under this Section 6(b) shall not relieve Executive of his
obligations hereunder and thereunder). In addition, if Executive elects COBRA continuation of health insurance coverage, the Company shall pay the premiums for such coverage on a monthly basis for a period of twelve (12) months following such
termination. The amounts payable pursuant to this Section 6(b) shall be payable in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices (in effect from time to time), provided that any payment pursuant to
clause (ii) or (iv) of this Section 6(b) shall be paid on the date that such Annual Bonus would otherwise have been payable pursuant to Section 3(b), including the payment deadlines provided for therein. Executive
shall not be entitled to any other salary, compensation (including, without limitation, any bonus) or benefits after termination of the Employment Period, except as specifically provided for in the Company’s employee benefit plans or as
otherwise expressly required by applicable law; provided, that the Company shall be entitled to amend or terminate any employee benefit plans which are applicable generally to the Company’s senior executives, officers or other employees.
It is further acknowledged and agreed by the parties that the actual damages to Executive in the event of termination under this Section 6(b) would be difficult if not impossible to ascertain, and, therefore, the salary and benefit
continuation provisions set forth hereinabove shall be Executive’s sole and exclusive remedy in the case of termination under this Section 6(b) and shall, as liquidated damages or severance pay or both, be considered for all
purposes in lieu of any other rights or remedies, at law or in equity, which Executive may have in the case of such termination. 
 (c) If
the Employment Period is terminated by the Company for Cause or by Executive other than for Good Reason, Executive shall only be entitled to continue to receive his Base Salary through the date of such termination. Executive shall not be entitled to
any other compensation (including, without limitation, any bonus) or benefits from the Company or its Subsidiaries thereafter, except as otherwise expressly required by applicable law. 

(d) If the Employment Period is terminated by the Company as a result of the Disability (as defined herein) of Executive, Executive shall be
entitled: (i) to continue to receive 

  
 -5- 








 
his Base Salary through the date of such termination; (ii) to receive the Annual Bonus to the extent earned under Section 3(b) but not already paid for the year preceding that in
which the date of termination occurs; (iii) to continue to receive his Base Salary as special severance payments during the Severance Period; and (iv) to receive a prorated Annual Bonus to the extent earned under Section 3(b)
for the year in which the date of termination occurs (the extent to which performance objectives have been achieved to be determined by the Parent Board in its reasonable discretion in a manner consistent with its determinations regarding annual
bonuses earned by other senior-level Company employees for the year in which such termination occurs, but disregarding any subjective performance goals in making its determination); provided that Executive shall be entitled to receive such payments
if and only if Executive (or the executor or administrator of his estate) has executed and delivered to the Company the General Release substantially in form and substance as set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto and the revocation period
provided for in such General Release has expired without Executive having revoked such acceptance and only so long as Executive has not revoked or breached the provisions of the General Release or breached the provisions of Sections 7 or
8 (provided, that Executive’s breach of such Sections or termination of payments under this Section 6(d) shall not relieve Executive of his obligations hereunder and thereunder). The amounts payable under this
Section 6(d) shall be payable in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices (in effect from time to time), provided that any payment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iv) of this
Section 6(d) shall be paid on the date that such Annual Bonus would otherwise have been payable pursuant to Section 3(b), including the payment deadlines provided for therein. Executive shall not be entitled to any other
salary, compensation (including, without limitation, any bonus) or benefits after termination of the Employment Period, except, for such benefits as are specifically provided for in the Company’s employee benefit plans or are otherwise
expressly required by applicable law; provided, that the Company shall be entitled to amend or terminate any employee benefit plans which are applicable generally to the Company’s senior executives, officers or other employees. The
amounts otherwise payable to Executive under section (iii) hereof shall be reduced by the amount of any disability benefits Executive is eligible to receive from any source during the Severance Period, except from disability insurance, if any,
not sponsored by the Company which Executive purchases separately. 
 (e) If the Employment Period is terminated as a result of the death of
Executive, Executive shall be entitled: (i) to continue to receive his Base Salary through the date of such termination; (ii) to receive the Annual Bonus to the extent earned under Section 3(b) but not already paid for the year
preceding that in which the date of termination occurs; and (iii) to receive a prorated Annual Bonus to the extent earned under Section 3(b) for the year in which the date of termination occurs (the extent to which performance
objectives have been achieved to be determined by the Parent Board in its reasonable discretion in a manner consistent with its determinations regarding annual bonuses earned by other senior-level Company employees for the year in which such
termination occurs, but disregarding any subjective performance goals in making its determination); provided that Executive shall be entitled to receive such payments if and only if the executor or administrator of Executive’s estate has
executed and delivered to the Company the General Release substantially in form and substance as set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto and the revocation period provided for in such General Release has expired without such executor or
administrator having revoked such acceptance or revoked or breached the provisions of the General Release or breached the provisions of Sections 7 or 8 (provided, that Executive’s breach of such Sections or termination of
payments under this Section 6(e) shall 

  
 -6- 








 
not relieve Executive of his obligations hereunder and thereunder). The amounts payable under this Section 6(e) shall be payable in regular installments in accordance with the
Company’s general payroll practices (in effect from time to time), provided that any payment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) of this Section 6(e) shall be paid on the date that such Annual Bonus would otherwise have been
payable pursuant to Section 3(b), including the payment deadlines provided for therein. Executive shall not be entitled to any other salary, compensation (including, without limitation, any bonus) or benefits after termination of the
Employment Period. 
 (f) If the Employment Period terminates pursuant to Section 6(a) on August 15, 2018, Executive shall
be entitled: (i) to continue to receive his Base Salary until the date of such termination; (ii) to receive the Annual Bonus to the extent earned under Section 3(b) but not already paid for the year preceding that in which the
date of termination occurs; (iii) to continue to receive his Base Salary as special severance payments during the Severance Period; and (iv) to receive a prorated Annual Bonus to the extent earned under Section 3(b) for the
year in which the date of termination occurs (the extent to which performance objectives have been achieved to be determined by the Parent Board in its reasonable discretion in a manner consistent with its determinations regarding annual bonuses
earned by other senior-level Company employees for the year in which such termination occurs, but disregarding any subjective performance goals in making its determination); provided that Executive shall be entitled to receive such payments if and
only if Executive (or his legal representative) has executed and delivered to the Company the General Release substantially in form and substance as set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto and the revocation period provided for in such General
Release has expired without Executive having revoked such acceptance and only so long as Executive has not revoked or breached the provisions of the General Release or breached the provisions of Sections 7 or 8 (provided, that
Executive’s breach of such Sections or termination of payments under this Section 6(f) shall not relieve Executive of his obligations hereunder and thereunder). The amounts payable under this Section 6(f) shall be
payable in regular installments in accordance with the Company’s general payroll practices (in effect from time to time), provided that any payment pursuant to clause (ii) or (iv) of this Section 6(f) shall be paid on the
date that such Annual Bonus would otherwise have been payable pursuant to Section 3(b), including the payment deadlines provided for therein. Executive shall not be entitled to any other salary, compensation (including, without
limitation, any bonus) or benefits after termination of the Employment Period. 
 (g) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all of
Executive’s rights to salary, bonuses, employee benefits and other compensation hereunder which would have accrued or become payable after the termination of the Employment Period shall cease upon such termination, other than those expressly
required under applicable law (such as COBRA). Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any severance provided for under this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise and no such payment shall be reduced by the amount of
any compensation provided to Executive in any subsequent employment. The Company may offset any amounts Executive owes Parent or any of its Subsidiaries as of the time of the termination of the Employment Period or during the Severance Period
against any amounts Parent or any such Subsidiary, as the case may be, owes Executive as of the termination of the Employment Period or during the Severance Period, including the payments payable to Executive under this Section 6.
Subject to the preceding sentence, the provisions of this Section 6 shall not affect Executive’s rights under the Manager Rollover Subscription Agreement, the Rollover Subscription Agreement (Restricted Units), the Equityholders
Agreement or the

Mustang Investment Holdings L.P. Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, each to be entered into by Mustang Investment Holdings L.P. and Executive contemporaneously with or as soon as
practicable following the execution and delivery of this Agreement. In addition, the provisions of this Section 6 shall not affect in any manner Executive’s rights under the Multi Packaging Solutions, Inc. Marc Shore 2013

(i) the conviction of Executive of any (A) felony or (B) misdemeanor involving dishonesty, disloyalty or moral turpitude, (ii) the commission by Executive of any willful act or omission involving fraud or material dishonesty with
respect to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any customer or supplier thereof, (iii) the use by Executive of illegal drugs or repetitive abuse of other drugs or repetitive excess consumption of alcohol interfering with the performance of
Executive’s duties, (iv) gross negligence or willful misconduct by Executive in connection with the performance of Executive’s duties hereunder which, if curable, remains uncured after a period of thirty (30) days following
Executive’s receipt of notice from the Company or Parent that it deems such conduct Cause for termination of his employment hereunder, (v) Executive’s continued failure, whether willful, intentional or negligent, to perform
substantially his duties hereunder (other than as a result of a Disability), which failure remains uncured after a period of thirty (30) days following Executive’s receipt of notice from the Company or Parent that it deems such conduct
Cause for termination of his employment hereunder (vi) any (A) material misrepresentation by Executive in respect of Executive’s representations and warranties under this Agreement or (B) material breach by Executive of any
covenant, obligation or provision contained in this Agreement, which material breach, if curable, remains uncured for a period of thirty (30) days following such date as Executive receives notice of such material breach from the Company or
Parent, or (vii) a failure or refusal to follow a lawful directive of the Parent Board after the Parent Board gives Executive notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure his performance. 

(i) For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean Executive’s having been unable to perform the essential
duties, responsibilities and functions of his position with Parent and its Subsidiaries for a period of at least six (6) months in any twelve (12) month calendar period as a result of any mental or physical disability, even with reasonable
accommodations of such disability provided by Parent and its Subsidiaries or if providing such accommodations would be unreasonable, all as determined by the Parent Board (excluding Executive) in its reasonable judgment. Executive shall cooperate in
all respects with the Company if he disputes the determination whether he has experienced a Disability for purposes of this Agreement (including, without limitation, submitting to an examination by a medical doctor or other health care specialists

Agreement, and which failure to pay such compensation or provide such benefits constitutes a breach of this Agreement, (ii) Parent or the Company changes Executive’s title to a lesser
title or reduces his responsibilities to a level materially inconsistent with the titles he holds, (iii) Parent fails to cause Executive to be elected to the Parent Board, (iv) Parent changes Executive’s principal place of work to a

provided that written notice of the resignation for Good Reason must be delivered to the Company within forty five (45) days after the occurrence of any such event in order for a resignation for Good Reason to be effective and, with
respect to clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, the Company shall, upon receipt of such written notice have forty five (45) days to cure the Good Reason and, to the extent not cured, Executive must terminate his employment within

7. Confidential Information. 

(a) Obligation to Maintain Confidentiality. Executive acknowledges that the continued success of Parent and its Subsidiaries depends
upon the use and protection of a large body of confidential and proprietary information. All of such confidential and proprietary information now existing or to be developed in the future will be referred to in this Agreement as
“Confidential Information”. Confidential Information will be interpreted as broadly as possible to include all information of any sort (whether merely remembered or embodied in a tangible or intangible form) that is (i) related
to Parent’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ prior, current or demonstrably planned business and (ii) is not generally or publicly known within the industry of the development, manufacture, production, selling, marketing and/or management
of specialty printing (the “Target Industry”). Confidential Information includes, without specific limitation, the information, observations and data obtained by Executive during the course of his performance under this Agreement
concerning the business and affairs of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, information concerning acquisition opportunities in or reasonably related to Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ business or industry of which Executive is aware or
becomes aware during the Employment Period, the persons or entities that are current, former or prospective suppliers or customers of any one or more of them, as well as development, transition and transformation plans, methodologies and methods of
doing business, strategic, marketing and expansion plans, including plans regarding planned and potential sales, financial and business plans, employee lists and telephone numbers, locations of sales representatives, new and existing programs and
services, prices and terms, customer service, integration processes, requirements and costs of providing service, support and equipment. Therefore, Executive agrees that he shall not disclose or use for his own account any of such Confidential
Information, except as reasonably necessary for the performance of his duties under this Agreement, without the Parent Board’s prior written consent, unless and to the extent that any Confidential Information (i) becomes generally known to
and available for use by the public other than as a result of Executive’s acts or omissions to act or (ii) is required to be disclosed pursuant to any applicable law or court order. Executive agrees to deliver to the Company at the
termination of the Employment Period, or at any other time the Company or Parent may request in writing, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports and other documents (and copies thereof) relating to the business of Parent or any of its
Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, all Confidential 

  
 -9- 








 
Information) that he may then possess or have under his control, other than such documents as are generally or publicly known; provided, that such documents are not known as a result of
Executive’s breach or actions in violation of this Agreement. Nothing set forth in this Section 7 shall be deemed to extend the Noncompete Period or the Non-Solicitation Period or expand the definition of Competition provided in
Section 8(b). 
 (b) Ownership of Intellectual Property. Executive agrees to make prompt and full disclosure to Parent
and its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, of all ideas, discoveries, trade secrets, inventions, innovations, improvements, developments, methods of doing business, processes, programs, designs, analyses, drawings, reports, data, software, firmware,
logos and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable and whether or not reduced to practice) that relate to Parent’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ actual or demonstrably planned business, research and development, or
existing or future products or services and that are conceived, developed, acquired, contributed to, made, or reduced to practice by Executive (either solely or jointly with others) while employed by the Company and its Subsidiaries (collectively,
“Work Product”). Any copyrightable work falling within the definition of Work Product shall be deemed a “work made for hire” under the copyright laws of the United States, and ownership of all rights therein shall vest in
the Company. To the extent that any Work Product is not deemed to be a “work made for hire”, Executive hereby assigns and agrees to assign to the Company all right, title and interest, including without limitation, the intellectual
property rights that Executive may have in and to such Work Product. Executive shall promptly perform all actions reasonably requested by the Parent Board (whether during or after the Employment Period) to establish and confirm the Company’s
ownership (including, without limitation, providing testimony and executing assignments, consents, powers of attorney, and other instruments). Executive understands, however, that there is no obligation being imposed on him to assign to the Company
or its Subsidiaries any invention falling within the definition of Work Product for which no equipment, supplies, facility, or trade secret information of Parent or its Subsidiaries was used and that was developed entirely on his own time, unless:
(i) such Work Product relates (A) to Parent’s or its Subsidiaries’ businesses or (B) to their actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development, or (ii) the Work Product results from any work performed by him
for them under this Agreement. Executive has identified and listed as an Exhibit A to this Agreement all Work Product that is or was owned by him or was written, discovered, made, conceived or first reduced to practice by him alone or jointly
with another person prior to his employment under this Agreement. If no such Work Product is listed, Executive represents to the Company that he does not claim any rights to any such Work Product. 

(c) Third Party Information. Executive understands that Parent and its Subsidiaries will receive from third parties confidential or
proprietary information (“Third Party Information”) subject to a duty on Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. During the
Employment Period and thereafter, and without in any way limiting the provisions of Section 7(a), Executive will hold Third Party Information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than personnel of the
Company or its Subsidiaries who need to know such information in connection with their work for the Company or its Subsidiaries) or use, except in either case in connection with his work for the Company and its Subsidiaries, Third Party Information
unless expressly authorized in writing by the Parent Board. 

  
 -10- 








 (d) Use of Information of Prior Employers. During the Employment Period, Executive shall
not knowingly use or disclose any confidential information or trade secrets, if any, of any former employers or any other person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality, and shall not bring onto the premises of the Company or its
Subsidiaries any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or any other person to whom Executive has an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by the former employer or person. Executive shall use
in the performance of his duties only information that is (i) generally known and used by persons with training and experience comparable to Executive’s and that is (A) common knowledge in the industry or (B) is otherwise legally
in the public domain, (ii) otherwise provided or developed by Parent or its Subsidiaries or (iii) in the case of materials, property or information belonging to any former employer or other person to whom Executive has an obligation of
confidentiality, approved for such use in writing by such former employer or person. 
 (e) Permitted Disclosures. No provision of
this Agreement shall act to prohibit or restrict Executive or the Company from (i) responding to any inquiry by the Securities and Exchange Commission, FINRA, any other self-regulatory organization or governmental entity, (ii) responding
to a subpoena or as otherwise required by law; or (iii) seeking to enforce its or his rights under this Agreement or any other agreement by, between, or among Executive or the Company, provided that the parties first enter into a reasonable
protective order that protects the confidentiality of such information during the course of the proceedings. In the event Executive is requested or required by law or judicial or other governmental order to disclose any Confidential Information
and/or Third Party Information, Executive shall provide the Company with prompt written notice of such request or requirement so that the Company may seek an appropriate protective order. If, failing the entry of a protective order, Executive, in
the opinion of counsel to Executive, is compelled to disclose Confidential Information and/or Third Party Information, Executive shall disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information and/or Third Party Information that counsel to
Executive advises is compelled to be disclosed by Executive, and Executive shall exercise reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to that portion of the Confidential Information and/or Third Party
Information that is being disclosed. In addition, Executive agrees that Executive will not oppose, and will cooperate with, action by the Company to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will
be accorded to any Confidential Information and/or Third Party Information which is provided to Executive by or on behalf of the Company. 

8. Non-Compete, Non-Solicitation. 

(a) In further consideration of the compensation to be paid to Executive hereunder, Executive acknowledges that during the course of his
employment with the Company he shall become familiar with Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ trade secrets and with other Confidential Information concerning Parent or its Subsidiaries and that his services shall be of special, unique and
extraordinary value to Parent and its Subsidiaries, and, therefore, Executive agrees that, during the Employment Period and for one year thereafter (the “Noncompete Period”), he shall not engage in Competition. 

  
 -11- 








 (b) For purposes of this Agreement, to engage in “Competition” shall mean to
directly or indirectly own any interest in, manage, control, participate in, consult with, render services for, operate, serve as an officer, director, partner, member, employee, agent, consultant, advisor or developer or in any similar capacity to,
or in any manner engage in any business in which Parent or its Subsidiaries engage, or, to Executive’s knowledge, propose to engage, as of the date of termination of the Employment Period, anywhere in the world where Parent’s or any of its
Subsidiaries’ products are currently directly or indirectly marketed or sold by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (provided that Executive shall not be prohibited from (A) owning up to three percent (3%) of the outstanding stock of a
corporation which is publicly traded, so long as Executive has no active participation in the business of such corporation or (B) engaging in a business outside of the Target Industry that would otherwise be prohibited by this provision if such
non-Target Industry business does not compete with any business of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries which alone or in aggregate represents five percent (5%) or more of Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ total gross revenue or profits on
an annualized basis as of the time of the termination of Executive’s employment (or within six (6) months thereafter). 
 (c) In
further consideration of the compensation to be paid to Executive hereunder, Executive agrees that, during the Employment Period and for two years thereafter (the “Non-Solicitation Period”), he shall not (i) induce or attempt
to induce any employee of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to leave the employ of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) hire directly or through another entity any person who was an employee of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries on the date
of termination of the Employment Period (or at any time within six (6) months prior thereto), within six (6) months following the date of termination of such person’s employment with Parent or such Subsidiaries, as the case may be, or
(iii) subject to the restrictions of any applicable law, induce or attempt to induce any supplier, licensee or other business relation of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to cease doing business with, or reduce the amount of business it does
with, Parent or such Subsidiary, as the case may be. 
 (d) During the Employment Period and at all times thereafter, Executive shall not
make or solicit or encourage others to make or solicit any derogatory or negative statement or communication about Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their businesses, products, services or activities. After the termination of the
Employment Period, none of Parent’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ officers or directors shall, and such officers and directors shall not authorize any agent of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to, make, solicit or authorize, or encourage
others to make or solicit, any derogatory or negative statement or communication about Executive. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this Section 8(d) shall prevent any party to this Agreement from enforcing its
or his rights hereunder or limit such rights in any way. 
 (e) Executive hereby acknowledges and agrees that the enforcement of the
provisions of this Section 8 do not interfere with his ability to pursue a proper livelihood. Executive recognizes and agrees that the enforcement of this Agreement is necessary to ensure the preservation, protection and continuity of
the business, trade secrets and goodwill of Parent and its Subsidiaries. Executive agrees that, due to the proprietary nature of Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ businesses, the restrictions set forth in this Agreement are reasonable as to
time and scope. Executive hereby acknowledges that he has been advised to consult with an attorney before executing this Agreement and that he has done so or, after careful reading and consideration, he has chosen not to do so of his own volition.


  
 -12- 








 9. Enforcement. If, at the time of enforcement of Section 7 or 8, a
court holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated
period, scope or area, and the covenants should be interpreted and enforced to the maximum extent which such court deems reasonable. Because Executive’s services are unique and because Executive has access to Confidential Information and Work
Product, the parties hereto agree that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of this Agreement, and any breach of the terms of Section 7 or 8 would result in irreparable injury and damage to Parent and its
Subsidiaries for which Parent and such Subsidiaries would have no adequate remedy at law. Therefore, in the event a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, Parent or its successors or assigns, in addition to other rights and remedies existing
in their favor, shall be entitled to specific performance and/or immediate injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions hereof (without posting a bond
or other security), without having to prove damages, in addition to any other remedies to which Parent may be entitled at law or in equity. The terms of this Section 9 shall not prevent Parent from pursuing any other available remedies
for any breach or threatened breach hereof, including but not limited to the recovery of damages from Executive. 
 10.
Section 409A. 
 (a) A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this
Agreement providing for the payment of any amount or benefit upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended and any regulations or other guidance issued thereunder (“Section 409A”) and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or
like terms shall mean “separation from service.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under
Section 409A(a)(2)(B), then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is considered deferred compensation under Section 409A payable on account of a “separation from service,” such payment or benefit shall
not be made or provided until the date which is the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six (6)-month period measured from the date of such “separation from service” of Executive, and (B) the date of Executive’s death, to
the extent required under Section 409A. Upon the expiration of the foregoing delay period, all payments and benefits delayed pursuant to this Section 10(a) (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single sum or in
installments in the absence of such delay) shall be paid or reimbursed to Executive in a lump sum, and all remaining payments and benefits due under this Agreement shall be paid or provided in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for
them herein. 

  
 -13- 








 (b) To the extent that severance payments or benefits pursuant to this Agreement are conditioned
upon the execution and delivery by Executive of a release of claims, Executive shall forfeit all rights to such payments and benefits unless such release is signed and delivered (and no longer subject to revocation, if applicable) within sixty
(60) days following the date of Executive’s termination of employment. If the foregoing release is executed and delivered and no longer subject to revocation as provided in the preceding sentence, then the following shall apply,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement: 
 (i) To the extent that any such cash payment or continuing
benefit to be provided is not “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A, then such payment or benefit shall commence upon the first scheduled payment date immediately following the date that the release is
executed, delivered and no longer subject to revocation (the “Release Effective Date”). The first such cash payment shall include payment of all amounts that otherwise would have been due prior to the Release Effective Date under
the terms of this Agreement applied as though such payments commenced immediately upon Executive’s termination of employment, and all payments made thereafter shall continue as provided herein. 

(ii) To the extent that any such cash payment or continuing benefit to be provided is “nonqualified deferred
compensation” for purposes of Section 409A, then such payments or benefits shall be made or commence upon the sixtieth (60th) day following Executive’s termination of employment. The first such cash payment shall include payment
of all amounts that otherwise would have been due prior thereto under the terms of this Agreement had such payments commenced immediately upon Executive’s termination of employment, and all payments made thereafter shall continue as provided
herein. 
 (c) To the extent that reimbursements or other in-kind benefits under this Agreement constitute “nonqualified deferred
compensation” for purposes of Section 409A, (i) all expenses or other reimbursements hereunder shall be made on or prior to the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which such expenses were incurred by Executive,
(ii) any right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (iii) no such reimbursement, expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year
shall in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year. 
 (d) For
purposes of Section 409A, Executive’s right to receive installment payments pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a
payment period with reference to a number of days, the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company. 

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall any payment under this Agreement that constitutes
“nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A be subject to offset by any other amount unless otherwise permitted by Section 409A. 

(f) Unless this Agreement provides a specified and objectively determinable payment schedule to the contrary, to the extent that any payment
of base salary or other compensation is to be paid for a specified continuing period of time beyond the date of Executive’s termination of employment in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices (or other similar term), the payments
of such base salary or other compensation shall be made upon such schedule as in effect upon the date of termination, but no less frequently than monthly. 

  
 -14- 








 11. Insurance and Indemnity. 

(a) In General. If Executive is made a party, is threatened to be made a party, or reasonably anticipates being made a party, to any
proceeding (whether civil, criminal, investigative, or otherwise) by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, or employee of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or is or was serving at the request of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries
or in connection with his service hereunder, as a director, officer, member, or employee, then Executive shall promptly be indemnified and held harmless, to the fullest extent permitted or authorized by (i) the Articles of Association of
Parent, (ii) the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company, or (iii) applicable law, against any and all reasonable costs, expenses, liabilities and losses (including reasonable attorneys’ and other reasonable professional
fees and charges reasonably incurred, judgments, interest, penalties, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts reasonably paid, or reasonably agreed to be paid, in settlement (it being understood and agreed that any amount paid pursuant to
a settlement to which Parent has reasonably objected, for reasons set forth in a writing delivered to Executive within fifteen (15) days after Executive gives notice to Parent describing such settlement, shall (to the extent of Parent’s
reasonable written objection) be deemed unreasonable)) incurred or suffered by Executive in connection therewith or in connection with seeking to enforce his rights under this Section 11(a), and such indemnification shall continue as to
Executive even if he has ceased to be a director, officer, or employee of Parent and shall inure to the benefit of his heirs, executors and administrators. Executive shall be entitled to prompt advancement of any and all reasonable costs and
expenses (including attorneys’ and other professional fees and charges) incurred by him in connection with any such proceeding or claim, any such advancement to be made within fifteen (15) days after Executive gives written notice,
supported by reasonable documentation detailing the monies sought, requesting such advancement. Such notice shall include, to the extent required by applicable law, an undertaking by Executive to repay the amount advanced to the extent he is
ultimately determined not to be entitled to indemnification against such costs and expenses. Nothing in this Agreement shall operate to limit or extinguish any right to indemnification, advancement of expenses, or contribution that Executive would
otherwise have (including by agreement or under applicable law). 
 (b) Insurance. Parent and the Company agree that Executive shall
be entitled to receive the benefit of the same directors’ and officers’ insurance as is received by the other officers and directors of Parent and the Company with respect to acts undertaken by him in connection with his employment by the
Company and service with Parent. 
 12. Certain Agreements. 

(a) Customers, Suppliers. Executive does not have, and at any time during the Employment Period shall not have, any employment with or
knowingly acquire or retain any direct or indirect interest in (as owner, partner, shareholder, employee, director, officer, agent, consultant or otherwise) any customer of or supplier to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries. Nothing in this
Section 12(a) shall prohibit Executive from acquiring or holding not more than three percent (3%) of the outstanding common stock of a corporation which is publicly traded, so long as Executive has no active participation in the
business of such corporation. 

  
 -15- 








 (b) Certain Activities. During the Employment Period, Executive shall not (i) give or
agree to give, any gift or similar benefit of more than nominal value or as generally permitted by industry practice and applicable law to any customer, supplier, or governmental employee or official or any other person who is or may be in a
position to assist or hinder Parent or the Company in connection with any proposed transaction, which gift or similar benefit, if not given or continued in the future, might adversely affect the business or prospects of Parent or the Company,
provided that Executive’s charitable activities permitted under Section 2(b) above in which a customer, supplier or governmental employee or official participates shall not, simply by reason of such participation, be restricted by virtue
of this Section 12(b), (ii) use any corporate or other funds for unlawful contributions, payments, gifts or entertainment, (iii) make any unlawful expenditures relating to political activity to government officials or others,
(iv) establish or maintain any unlawful or unrecorded funds in violation of Section 30A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or (v) accept or receive any unlawful contributions, payments, gifts, or expenditures. 

(c) Executive’s Representations. Executive hereby represents and warrants to Parent and the Company that (i) the execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement by Executive do not and shall not conflict with, breach, violate or cause a default under any contract, agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which Executive is a party or by which he is
bound, (ii) Executive is not a party to or bound by any employment agreement or noncompete agreement with any other person or entity, and Executive is not a party to or bound by any other similar arrangement which restricts, impairs or
otherwise limits in any way the ability of Executive to engage in employment-related activities of any kind or nature, (iii) to Executive’s knowledge, there are no (A) actions, suits, proceedings, arbitrations, investigations or
audits pending or threatened against, relating to or affecting Executive or (B) judgments, decrees, injunctions or similar orders of any governmental authority, which, in any such case, could be reasonably expected to affect Executive’s
ability to perform his obligations under this Agreement and to provide the services contemplated hereunder, (iv) upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Parent and the Company, this Agreement shall be the valid and binding
obligation of Executive, enforceable in accordance with its terms, (v) Executive has not, at any time, been convicted in any criminal proceeding and Executive is not, to Executive’s knowledge, currently the named subject of a pending
criminal proceeding, (vi) Executive has not, at any time, been found by a court in a civil action or by the Securities and Exchange Commission to have violated any federal or state securities law where such judgment has not subsequently been
reversed, suspended or vacated, and (vii) during the past five years, no petition under the Bankruptcy Code Title 11 U.S.C. or any state insolvency law has been filed by or against, nor has any receiver or similar officer been appointed for the
business or property of Executive. Executive hereby acknowledges and represents that he has consulted with independent legal counsel regarding his rights and obligations under this Agreement or, after careful reading and consideration, he has chosen
not to do so of his own volition and that he fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein.

Participant’s Account as of the date of such Termination Event in an amount equal to the Annual Credit pro-rated on an annualized basis based on the number of days that have elapsed through the date of the Termination Event in such Plan Year.

 Section 3.03. Interest Credits. The Participant’s Account balance shall be deemed to accrue interest at a rate of
4% per annum (the “Interest Credit”) from and after the Effective Date to and including the first date upon which a Termination Event occurs, which shall be credited to the Participant’s Account as of the last day of any
Plan Year during which a Termination Event has not occurred and as of the date of the occurrence of any Termination Event (other than the Participant’s termination of employment for Cause).

 ARTICLE IV 

Establishment and Maintenance of Participant’s Account 

Section 4.01. Establishment of Account. The Committee shall cause a bookkeeping entry, or Account, to be kept in the name
of the Participant, which shall reflect the value of the aggregate Initial Credit, Annual Credits and Interest Credits made to the Account by the Committee pursuant to Article III on behalf of the Participant. 

Section 4.02. No Right to Account. Neither the Participant nor any Beneficiary shall have a right to receive amounts
credited to his Account prior to the occurrence of a Termination Event. 
 Section 4.03. Designation of Beneficiary. The
Participant shall have the right to designate, in the form and in a manner reasonably specified by the Committee, a Beneficiary who is to succeed to the Participant’s contingent right to receive future payments hereunder in the event of the
Participant’s death. In case of a failure of designation or the death of a Beneficiary without a designated successor, distribution shall be made to the Participant’s estate. No designation of a Beneficiary shall be valid unless it is in
writing and signed by the Participant, dated and filed with the Committee. A Beneficiary may be changed without the consent of any prior Beneficiary. 

Section 4.04. Benefits Not Assignable. To the extent permitted by law, the right of the Participant or any Beneficiary in
any benefit or to any payment under the Plan shall not be subject in any manner to attachment or other legal process for the debts of the Participant or Beneficiary, and any benefit or payment under the Plan shall not be subject to anticipation,
alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge or encumbrance. 
 ARTICLE V 

Payment of Benefits 

Section 5.01. Amount and Form of Payment. Upon the occurrence of a Termination Event, the Committee shall determine the
value of the Participant’s Account as of the date of such Termination Event. The Committee shall cause to be paid by the Company such amount (net of any applicable withholding taxes) to the Participant or, in the event of the Participant’s
death, to his Beneficiary, in a single lump sum cash payment within thirty (30) days after the date of such Termination Event; provided that if the Participant has separated from service in connection with the Termination Event and the
Participant is a “specified employee” (as defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code), then the Participant shall not receive payment of any amount hereunder until the date which is six (6) months after the date of the
Participant’s separation from service (or, if earlier, the date of death of the Participant).

 ARTICLE VI 

Source of Benefits 

Section 6.01. This Plan shall be unfunded and all benefits payable under this Plan shall be paid exclusively from the general
assets of the Company. To the extent that any Person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company under the Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company. Nothing contained herein shall
be deemed to create a trust of any kind or create any fiduciary relationship. 
 ARTICLE VII 

Administration 

Section 7.01. Committee. The Plan shall be administered by a committee designated from time to time by the Parent Board for
this purpose. The members of the Committee shall serve without compensation for services as such. 
 Section 7.02. Powers of
Committee. The Committee is authorized to make such rules and regulations as it may deem necessary to carry out the provisions of the Plan. In administering the Plan, the Committee may employ or permit any agents to carry out any of its
responsibilities hereunder. 
 Section 7.03. Actions of the Committee. For purposes of this Article VII, the Committee
shall act by majority vote of its members, and any such actions may be taken by a vote at a meeting or in writing without a meeting. The Committee may by such majority action appoint subcommittees and may authorize any one or more of its members or
any agent of it to execute any document or documents or to take any other action, including the exercise of discretion, on behalf of such Committee. The Committee may provide for the allocation of responsibilities for the operation and
administration of the Plan. 
 Section 7.04. Plan Records. The books and records to be maintained for the purpose of the
Plan shall be maintained by the officers and employees of the Company (or its agents) and subject to the supervision and control of the Committee. All expenses of administering the Plan shall be paid by the Company. 

Section 7.05. Limits on Liability. No member of the Parent Board or of the Committee and no officer or employee of the
Company shall be liable to any Person for any action taken or omitted in connection with the administration of this Plan unless attributable to his own fraud or willful misconduct. The Company shall not be liable to any Person for any such action
unless attributable to fraud or willful misconduct on the part of a director, officer or employee of the Company. 

Section 7.06. Claims Procedure. If the Participant, a Beneficiary or any other person claiming through the Participant has
a dispute as to the failure of the Plan to pay or provide a benefit, as to the amount of benefit paid, or as to any other matter involving the Plan, the person 

  
 -5- 








 
may file a claim for the benefit or relief believed by the person to be due. Such claim must be provided by written notice to the Committee (or its agent designated by it for this purpose). The
Committee (or its agent) will decide any claims made pursuant to this Section 7.06. 
 If a claim made pursuant to this
Section 7.06 above is denied, in whole or in part, notice of the denial in writing will be furnished by the Committee (or its agent designated by it for this purpose) to the claimant within ninety (90) days after receipt of the claim by
the Committee (or such agent); except that if special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the claim, the period in which the Committee (or such agent) is to furnish the claimant written notice of the denial will be extended for
up to an additional ninety (90) days (and the Committee or its agent will provide the claimant within the initial 90-day period a written notice indicating the reasons for the extension and the date by which the Committee or its agent expects
to render the final decision). The final notice of denial will be written in a manner designed to be understood by the claimant and set forth (1) the specific reasons for the denial, (2) specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on
which the denial is based, (3) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation of why such material or information is necessary, and (4) an explanation of the
claims review appeal procedures including the name and address of the person or committee to whom any appeal should be directed, the time limits applicable to such procedures, and a statement that the claimant has a right to bring a civil action
pursuant to Section 502(a) of ERISA following an adverse determination on review. 
 Any claimant who has a claim denied as described
above may appeal the denied claim to the Committee (or its agent designated by it for this purpose). Such an appeal must, in order to be considered, be filed by written notice to the Committee (or such agent) within sixty (60) days of the
receipt by the claimant of a written notice of the denial of his initial claim (unless it was not reasonably possible for the claimant to make such appeal within such 60-day period, in which case the claimant must file his appeal within sixty
(60) days after the time it becomes reasonable for him so to file an appeal). Such request shall include any and all documents, materials, or other evidence which the claimant believes supports his claim for benefits. If any appeal is filed in
accordance with such rules, the claimant, and any duly authorized representative of the claimant, will be given the opportunity to review pertinent documents and submit issues and comments in writing. A formal hearing may be allowed in its
discretion by the Committee (or its agent designated by it for this purpose) but is not required. The Committee (or its agent designated by it for this purpose) will consider all documents, materials or other evidence submitted by the claimant,
regardless of whether such evidence was considered during the claimant’s initial benefits determination. The claimant may request, free of charge, copies of all documents, records and other information relevant to his claim for benefits. 

Upon any appeal of a denied claim, the Committee (or its agent designated by it for this purpose) will provide a full and fair review of the
subject claim and decide the appeal within sixty (60) days after the filing of the appeal; except that if special circumstances require an extension of time for processing the appeal, the period in which the appeal is to be decided will be
extended for up to an additional sixty (60) days, and the party deciding the appeal will 

  
 -6- 








 
provide the claimant written notice of the extension prior to the end of the initial 60-day period. Such notice shall include an explanation of the special circumstances requiring the extension
and the date by which the Committee (or its agent designated by it for this purpose) expects to render the benefits determination. The decision on appeal will be set forth in a writing designed to be understood by the claimant, specify the reasons
for the decision and references to pertinent Plan provisions on which the decision is based, and be furnished to the claimant by the Committee (or its agent) within the 60-day period or 120-day period, as is applicable, described above. Such written
decision shall also contain (1) information regarding the claimant’s right to request, free of charge, copies of all documents, records or other information relevant to the claimant’s claim for benefits; and (2) a statement that
the claimant has a right to bring a civil action pursuant to Section 502(a) of ERISA. 
 The Committee may prescribe additional rules
that are consistent with the other provisions of this Section 7.06, and the scope of the duties assigned to it by the Parent Board, in order to carry out the Plan’s claims procedures. 

ARTICLE VIII 
 Amendment or
Termination 
 Section 8.01. Amendment. The Plan may be amended in whole or in part at any time by the Parent Board
as provided in Section 9.04 hereof and may otherwise be amended in whole or in part at any time by the Parent Board with the consent of the Participant. Without the consent of the Participant, no amendment shall decrease the benefits credited
to the Account of the Participant as of the later of the effective date of such amendment or the date the amendment is adopted. 

Section 8.02. Termination. Upon payment in full of the Participant’s Account under the Plan to the Participant or his
Beneficiary, the Plan shall automatically terminate. Prior to such time, the Parent Board may not terminate the Plan without the prior written consent of the Participant. 

ARTICLE IX 
 Miscellaneous

 Section 9.01. Plan Not a Contract of Employment. The Plan is not a contract of employment, and the terms of
employment of the Participant shall not be affected in any way by the Plan except as specifically provided in the Plan. The establishment of the Plan shall not be construed as conferring any legal rights upon the Participant for a continuation of
employment, nor shall it interfere with the right of the Company to terminate the Employment Agreement and to treat the Participant without regard to the effect that such treatment might have upon him as the Participant in this Plan. The Participant
(and any Beneficiary of or other person claiming through the Participant) who may have a claim or right under the Plan shall be bound by the terms of the Plan. 

  
 -7- 








 Section 9.02. Funding and Interpretation. The Plan is intended to be a plan
that is unfunded and maintained primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a certain member of management who is a highly compensated employee and its terms shall be interpreted accordingly. Further, the provisions of the Plan
shall be administered and enforced according to applicable federal law and, only to the extent not preempted by ERISA, the laws of the State of Delaware. If any provision of the Plan, or the application of any such provision to any Person or
circumstances, shall be invalid under any applicable law, neither the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which such provision is invalid nor any other provisions of the Plan shall be affected thereby.
The headings and subheadings in the Plan have been inserted for convenience of reference only and are to be ignored in any construction of the provisions hereof. In the construction of the Plan, the singular shall include the plural, and the plural
shall include the singular, in all cases where such meanings would be appropriate. Pronouns of a masculine gender shall include the feminine where appropriate. 

Section 9.03. Assumption of Obligations. With the consent of the Parent Board, the obligations of the Company under the
Plan may be assumed by any other Person to whom the Employment Agreement is properly assigned, in which case such Person shall be obligated to satisfy all of the Company’s obligations under the Plan and the Company shall be released from any
continuing obligation under the Plan to the extent the Company is released from continuing obligations under the Employment Agreement. At the Company’s request, the Participant shall sign such documents as the Company may require in order to
effectuate the purposes of this Section. 
 Section 9.04. Plan to Be Construed in Accordance with Section 409A of the
Code. This Plan is intended to comply and be construed in accordance with Section 409A and any rulings or regulations thereunder. In the event that (a) the Company determines that there is an ambiguity with respect to any provision of
this Plan that could cause such provision to be subject to Section 409A, such ambiguity shall be interpreted and resolved in the manner that the Company deems necessary to avoid the imposition of a tax pursuant to Section 409A, and
(b) the Company reasonably determines that any amendment to the Plan is necessary or appropriate in order to avoid the imposition of a tax pursuant to Section 409A, the Company shall have the right to make such amendment, on a prospective
or retroactive basis, in its sole discretion; provided that, in the case of clauses (a) and (b), the Company shall endeavor to effect such interpretation or amendment in a manner that will not reduce the benefits credited to the Account
and which ensures, to the maximum extent practicable, that neither the Company nor the Participant is otherwise adversely affected by such change.

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Plan, as amended, has been executed by the Company on the 14th day of February, 2014.

 EXHIBIT C 

GENERAL RELEASE 

THIS GENERAL RELEASE is entered into             ,     ,
         by and between Multi Packaging Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Marc Shore (“Executive”). 

In consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Executive, in consideration of and subject to the performance by the
Company of its obligations with respect to the payment of monies pursuant to [Section 6(    )] of the Employment Agreement, dated as of [●], 2014 (the “Agreement”), by and among the Company,
Chesapeake Finance 2 Limited, a company incorporated in England and Wales (“Parent”), Mustang Investment Holdings L.P., a Cayman Islands limited partnership (“Mustang Holdings”) and Marc Shore, and this General
Release (the “General Release”), does hereby release and forever discharge as of the date hereof the Company, Parent, Mustang Holdings and their respective subsidiaries and affiliates and all present and former directors, partners,
officers, agents, representatives, employees, successors and assigns of the Company, Parent, Mustang Holdings, or any of their respective subsidiaries and affiliates and the Company’s direct and indirect owners (collectively, the
“Released Parties”) to the extent provided below. 
 2. Executive understands that the payments to be made pursuant to
[Section 6(    )] of the Agreement represent consideration for signing this General Release and are not salary or wages to which he is otherwise entitled. Executive understands and agrees that he will not receive the
payments specified in [Section 6(    )] of the Agreement unless he executes this General Release and does not revoke this General Release within the time period permitted hereafter or breach this General Release or
Section 7, 8 or 25 of the Agreement. Such payments will not be considered compensation for purposes of any employee benefit plan, program, policy or arrangement maintained or hereafter established by the Company or its
affiliates. Executive also acknowledges and represents that he has received all salary, wages and bonuses that he is otherwise entitled to receive (as of the date hereof) by virtue of any employment by the Company, other than such additional
payments which are expressly provided for under [Section 6(    )] of the Agreement. 
 3. Except as provided in
paragraphs 5, 12 and 13 of this General Release and except for the provisions of the Agreement which expressly survive the termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive knowingly and voluntarily (for himself, his heirs,
executors, administrators and assigns) releases and forever discharges the Company and the other Released Parties from any and all claims, suits, controversies, actions, causes of action, cross-claims, counter-claims, demands, debts, compensatory
damages, liquidated damages, punitive or exemplary damages, other damages, claims for costs and attorneys’ fees, or liabilities of any nature whatsoever in law and in equity, both past and present (through the date this General Release becomes
effective and enforceable) and whether known or unknown, suspected, or claimed against the Company or any of the Released Parties which Executive, his spouse, or 







 
any of his heirs, executors, administrators or assigns, may have, which arise out of or are connected with Executive’s employment with, or his separation or termination from, the Company
(including, but not limited to, any allegation, claim or violation, arising under: Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; the Civil Rights Act of 1991; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (including the Older
Workers Benefit Protection Act); the Equal Pay Act of 1963, as amended; the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993; the Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification Act; any applicable Executive Order
Programs; the Fair Labor Standards Act; or their state or local counterparts; or under any other federal, state or local civil or human rights law, or under any other local, state, or federal law, regulation or ordinance; or under any public policy,
contract, or tort, or under common law; or arising under any policies, practices or procedures of the Company; or any claim for wrongful discharge, breach of contract, infliction of emotional distress, defamation; or any claim for costs, fees, or
other expenses, including attorneys’ fees incurred in these matters) (all of the foregoing collectively referred to herein as the “Claims”). For the avoidance of doubt, this General Release shall not affect any of
Executive’s rights under Section 11 of the Agreement. Excluded from this General Release are any rights, claims or obligations that Executive has under the Manager Rollover Subscription Agreement, the Subscription Agreement
(Restricted Shares), the Non-Statutory Option Agreement and the Promissory Note, each as entered into by Parent and Executive on August 15, 2013, in accordance with the terms of such agreements. 

4. Executive represents that he has made no assignment or transfer of any Claim or other matter covered by paragraph 3 of this General
Release. 
 5. Executive agrees that this General Release does not waive or release any rights or claims that he may have under the Age
Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 which arise after the date he executes this General Release. Executive acknowledges and agrees that his engagement and employment by, and separation from employment with the Company in compliance with the
terms of the Agreement shall not serve as the basis for any claim or action (including, without limitation, any claim under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967). 

6. In signing this General Release, Executive acknowledges and intends that it shall be effective as a bar to each and every one of the Claims
hereinabove mentioned or implied. Executive expressly consents that this General Release shall be given full force and effect according to each and all of its express terms and provisions, including those relating to unknown and unsuspected Claims
(notwithstanding any state statute that expressly limits the effectiveness of a general release of unknown, unsuspected and unanticipated Claims), if any, as well as those relating to any other Claims hereinabove mentioned or implied. Executive
acknowledges and agrees that this waiver is an essential and material term of this General Release and that without such waiver the Company would not have agreed to make any payments pursuant to the terms of [Section
6(    )] of the Agreement. Executive further agrees that in the event he should bring a Claim seeking damages against the Company, or in the event he should seek to recover against the Company in any Claim brought by a
governmental agency on his behalf, this General Release shall serve as a complete defense to such Claims. Executive further agrees that he is not aware of any pending charge or complaint of the type described in paragraph 3 of this General Release
as of the execution of this General Release. 

  
 -2- 








 7. Executive and the Company each agree that neither this General Release, nor the furnishing of
the consideration for this General Release, shall be deemed or construed at any time to be an admission by the Company, any Released Party or Executive of any improper or unlawful conduct. 

8. Executive agrees that he will forfeit all amounts payable by the Company pursuant to [Section 6(    )] of the
Agreement if he challenges the validity of this General Release. Executive also agree that if he violate this General Release by suing the Company or the other Released Parties, he will return all payments received by him pursuant to [Section
6(    )] of the Agreement. 
 9. Executive agrees that this General Release is confidential and he agrees not to
disclose any information regarding the terms of this General Release, except to his immediate family and any tax, legal or other advisor he has consulted regarding the meaning or effect hereof or as required by law, and Executive will instruct each
of the foregoing not to disclose the same to anyone. 
 10. Any non-disclosure provision in this General Release does not prohibit or
restrict Executive (or his attorney) from responding to any inquiry about this General Release or its underlying facts and circumstances by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (NASD),
any other self-regulatory organization or governmental entity. 
 11. Executive agrees that, as of the date hereof, he has returned to the
Company any and all property, tangible or intangible, relating to its business, which was in his possession or control at the time of the termination of his employment (including, but not limited to, company provided credit cards, building or office
access cards, keys, computer equipment, manuals, files, documents, records, software, customer data base and other data) and that he shall not retain any copies, compilations, extracts, excerpts, summaries or other notes of any such manuals, files,
documents, records, software, customer data base or other data other than such documents as are generally or publicly known; provided, that such documents are not known as a result of Executive’s breach or actions in violation of the
Agreement or this General Release. 
 12. Notwithstanding anything in this General Release to the contrary, this General Release shall not
relinquish, diminish, or in any way affect any rights or claims arising out of any breach by the Company or by any Released Party of the Agreement after the date hereof or any other rights or claims Executive may have against the Company or any
Released Party arising after the date hereof. 
 13. Whenever possible, each provision of this General Release shall be interpreted in such
manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this General Release is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality
or unenforceability shall not 

  
 -3- 








 
affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this General Release shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provision had never been contained herein. 
 14. As set forth in Section 13 of the Agreement, Sections 6 through
26 of the Agreement, inclusive, survived the termination of Executive’s employment and are incorporated herein and made part hereof. 

15. In the event that after Executive executes this General Release, the Company, Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries exercises its
set-off rights pursuant to Section 6(g) of the Agreement and thereby reduces the amounts payable to Executive under Section 6 of the Agreement, Executive shall have the right to revoke this General Release and pursue any right he may have
with respect to such set-off provided he first returns to the Company any amounts paid to him which were conditioned on his signing this General Release. 

BY SIGNING THIS GENERAL RELEASE, EXECUTIVE REPRESENTS AND AGREES THAT: 

A. HE HAS READ IT CAREFULLY; 

B. HE UNDERSTANDS ALL OF ITS TERMS AND KNOWS THAT HE IS GIVING UP IMPORTANT RIGHTS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, RIGHTS UNDER THE AGE
