the Company and its shareholders; and



WHEREAS, the Executives
position has been determined to be an important part of the senior management team of the Company; and

hereinafter specified in accordance with the terms and eligibility requirements of this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to be nor should be construed to create a contract of employment for a specified period of time, or
otherwise change or alter the at-will nature of the Executives employment with the Company.
|-- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (iv) | by the Executive within one (1) year of a Change of Control (as all such capitalized terms are hereinafter defined).
| | ---- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Cause means termination upon (i) the willful and
continued failure by the Executive to perform substantially his duties (other than any such failure resulting from the Executives incapacity due to physical or mental illness), after demand for substantial performance is delivered in writing
by the Company to the Executive that specifically identifies the manner in which the Company believes the Executive has not substantially performed his duties, (ii) the willful engaging by the Executive in illegal or fraudulent misconduct which is
materially injurious to the Company, or (iii) the willful material breach of the Confidentiality and Nonsolicitation Agreement set forth in Section 7. No act, or failure to act, on the Executives part shall be considered willful
unless done, or omitted to be done, by him not in good faith and without reasonable belief that his action or omission was in the best interest of the Company.



Disability means the Executives incapacity due to physical or mental illness to perform substantially his duties on a
full-time basis for six (6) consecutive months and, within thirty (30) days after a notice of termination is thereafter given by the Company, the Executive shall not have returned to the full-time performance of the Executives duties. However,
if the Executive shall not agree with the determination to terminate him because of Disability, the question of the Executives disability shall be subject to the certification of a qualified medical doctor agreed to by the Company and the
Executive or Executives legal representative, in the event of the Executives incapacity to designate a doctor. In the absence of an agreement between the Company and the Executive, each party shall nominate a qualified medical doctor and
the two doctors shall select a third doctor, who shall make the determination as to Disability.



Good Reason means (i) an adverse change in the Executives status or position(s), in effect immediately prior to the date
of this Agreement, or (ii) a reduction in the Executives base salary; provided, however, that any such basis for Good Reason shall be recognized only if the Executive has provided the Company written notice of the existence of such Good Reason
within ninety (90) days of its first occurrence and the Company has failed to correct the matter within thirty (30) days of such notice.



Change of Control means any of (i) the acquisition by any person, entity or group within the meaning of Section 13(d) or 14(d)
of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, of beneficial ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Class A Shares of United Western Grocers, Inc.; (ii) if the individuals who presently serve on the Board of Directors no longer
constitute a majority of the members of the Companys Board of Directors; provided, however that any person who becomes a director subsequent to the commencement date of this Agreement who was elected to fill a vacancy by a majority of the
Companys members shall be considered as if a member prior to the commencement date of this Agreement; and (iii) a liquidation or dissolution of the Company or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company.

The Executive will not be deemed to have been
terminated without Cause by the Company and entitled to severance benefits under this Agreement merely by reason of the acquisition of the Company, if the Executive continues to be employed by any successor entity described in Section 8(a). This
provision, however, will not affect the right of the Executive to receive benefits due to a termination caused by the Executive for Good Reason or a Change in Control under Sections 2(b)(iii) and (iv).

agreement of the parties.
|-- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|5. | Benefits Upon Termination.
|-- | --------------------------



| | (a) | Subject to Section 9 hereof, if the Executives termination of employment with the Company satisfies the conditions set forth in Section 2, then the Executive will be paid the
equivalent of twelve (12) months pay based on an amount equal to the Executives highest annual base salary during the three year period immediately prior to the Date of Termination, plus an amount equal to one (1) times the highest
annual incentive bonus paid during the three year period prior to the Date of Termination. The Executives severance benefits shall be paid within ten (10)-business days of the Date of Termination, unless otherwise mutually agreed between the
Executive and the Company. Payments made under this subsection (a) shall not be taken into account under any other retirement plan of the Company.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | With respect to the Executives continued coverage under the Companys health insurance plan, or successor plan, the Executives qualifying event for
purposes of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA) shall be his Date of Termination from the Company. If the Executive elects to continue health plan coverage pursuant to COBRA, the Company shall pay the
Executives COBRA premiums for a period terminating on the earlier of (i) twelve (12) months from the Date of Termination or (ii) the cessation of COBRA eligibility and coverage for the Executive (without regard to any other COBRA qualified
beneficiary). The Companys obligation with respect to subsection (b) shall continue only if the Executive satisfies on a timely basis all of his premium payment obligations under COBRA. As applicable continued coverage under this subsection
(b) shall be coordinated with corresponding benefits that the Executive may be eligible to receive under the Officer Retiree Medical Plan.

Confidentiality and Nonsolicitation Agreement set forth in Section 7.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (d) | If the Executives termination of employment with the Company does not satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 2, no payment or benefits shall be provided under this
Agreement. This Agreement does not, and is not intended to, limit any rights or benefits of the Executive pursuant to any other non-severance type plan, policy or written agreement; provided, however, that this Agreement is intended to be the sole
agreement governing severance-type benefits. Under no circumstances will the Executive be entitled to or eligible for any other severance type benefits from the Employer, including any obligations that existed under any prior agreements including
but not limited to prior severance agreements or under the Unified Western Grocers Separation Payment Program.

employment by another employer after the Date of Termination, or otherwise.

| | (a) | The Executive acknowledges that in the course of his employment by the Company, he will have access to and become informed of confidential and secret information which is a
competitive asset of the Company (Confidential Information),including (i) the terms of any agreement between the Company and any employee, customer or supplier, (ii) pricing strategy, (iii) product development strategies, (iv)

concerning the Company, its employees, suppliers and customers.

| | (b) | The Executive agrees that he will keep all Confidential Information in strict confidence during the term of his employment by the Company and thereafter and will never make known,
divulge, reveal, furnish, make available, or use any Confidential Information (except in the course of his regular authorized duties on behalf of the Company). The Executive agrees that the obligations of confidentiality hereunder shall survive
termination of his employment at the Company regardless of any actual or alleged breach by the Company of this Agreement and shall continue for one (1) year following such termination provided that such obligation shall terminate earlier (i) as to
specific information

that shall have become known through no fault of
the Executive or (ii) as to Confidential Information which the Executive is required by law to disclose (after giving the Company notice and an opportunity to contest such requirement). The Executives obligations under this Section 7 are in
addition to, and not in limitation or preemption of, any other obligation of confidentiality which the Executive may have to the Company under general legal or equitable principles.



| | (c) | Except in the ordinary course of the Companys business, the Executive has not made, nor shall at any time following the date of this Agreement, make or cause to be made, any
copies, pictures, duplicates, facsimiles, or other reproductions or recordings or any abstracts or summaries including or reflecting Confidential Information. All such documents and other property furnished to the Executive by the Company or
otherwise acquired or developed by the Company shall at all times be the property of the Company. Upon termination of the Executives employment by the Company, the Executive will immediately return to the Company any such documents or other
property of the Company which are in the possession, custody or control of the Executive.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (d) | In the event of the Executives termination of employment at the Company, the Executive agrees that he will not in any capacity, on his own behalf or on behalf of any other
firm, person, or entity, for a period of one (1) year, solicit, or assist in the solicitation of, any employee of the Company to terminate his or her employment with the Company.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (e) | The Executive acknowledges and agrees that a violation of the foregoing provisions of this Section 7 (referred to collectively as the Confidentiality and Nonsolicitation
Agreement) that results in material detriment to the Company would cause irreparable harm to the Company, and that the Companys remedy at law for any such violation would be inadequate. In recognition of the foregoing, the Executive
agrees that, in addition to any other relief afforded by law or this Agreement, including damages sustained by a breach of this Agreement and forfeiture of any and all compensation or benefit otherwise provided under Section 5, and without any
necessity or proof of actual damages, the Company shall have the right to enforce this Confidentiality and Nonsolicitation Agreement by specific remedies, which shall include, among other things, temporary and permanent injunctions, it being the
understanding of the undersigned parties hereto that damages, the forfeitures described above and injunctions shall all be proper modes of relief and are not to be considered as alternative remedies.

|8. | Successors; Binding Agreement.
|-- | ------------------------------



| | (a) | The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise) by agreement in form and substance satisfactory
to the Executive, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place.

by mutual agreement of the parties shall provide conclusive calculations in the event the parties cannot jointly agree.

|11. | Validity.The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this
Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|13. | Miscellaneous. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modifications or discharge is agreed to in writing
signed by the Executive and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. No waiver or any breach of any term or provision of this Agreement shall be construed to be, nor shall be, a waiver of any other breach of this Agreement. No waiver shall be
binding unless in writing signed by the party waiving the breach. Unless otherwise noted, references to Sections are to sections of this Agreement. The captions used in this Agreement are designed for convenient reference only and are

shall not be obligated to make such payments under this Agreement. No other employee shall be entitled to severance benefits under the plan described in Section 15, and of which this Agreement is a part, unless such employee has been promised such
severance benefits under a separate written agreement.

ERISA pursuant to ERISA Regulation 2520.104-24. In the event of a dispute, the claims procedures set forth in Section 16 shall apply unless both parties agree to settle the dispute through arbitration. The Company may amend or terminate the plan of
which this Agreement is a part; provided, however, that the plan may not be amended or terminated unilaterally by the Company if such amendment or termination would result in some or all benefits not being paid as the terms of the Agreement provide
as of the effective date set forth below.
