EXECUTIVE AGREEMENT

 

This Executive Agreement (“Agreement”) between Civeo Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Allan D. Schoening (the “Executive”) is made and entered into effective as of the date of December 15, 2014 (the “Effective Date”).

 

WHEREAS, Executive is a key executive of the Company or a subsidiary; and

 

WHEREAS, the Company believes it to be in the best interests of its stockholders to attract, retain and motivate key executives and ensure continuity of management; and

 

WHEREAS, it is in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders if the key executives can approach material business development decisions objectively and without concern for their personal situation; and

 

WHEREAS, the Company recognizes that the possibility of a Change of Control (as defined below) of the Company may result in the departure of key executives to the detriment of the Company and its stockholders; and

 

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has authorized this Agreement and certain similar agreements in order to retain and motivate key management and to ensure continuity of key management;

 

THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and Executive agree as follows:

 

	
1.
	
Term of Agreement



 

	 	
(A)
	
This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and, subject to the provisions for earlier termination in this Agreement, shall continue in effect through the third anniversary of the Effective Date; provided, however, commencing on the Effective Date and on each day thereafter, the term of this Agreement shall automatically be extended for one additional day unless the Board shall give written notice to Executive that the term shall cease to be so extended in which event the Agreement shall terminate on the third anniversary of the date such notice is given.



 

	 	
(B)
	
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement, if in effect on the date of a Change of Control, shall automatically be extended for the 24-month period following the Change of Control.

2.
	
Certain Definitions 



 

	 	
(A)
	
“Cause” shall mean:



 

(i)     Executive’s conviction of (or plea of nolo contendere to) a felony, dishonesty or a breach of trust;

 

(ii)     Executive’s commission of any act of theft, fraud, embezzlement or misappropriation regardless of whether a criminal conviction is obtained;

 

(iii)     Executive’s continued failure to devote substantially all of his business time to the Company’s business affairs (excluding failures due to illness, incapacity, vacations, incidental civic activities and incidental personal time) which failure is not remedied within a reasonable time after written demand is delivered by the Company, which demand identifies the manner in which the Company believes that Executive has failed to devote substantially all of his business time to the Company’s business affairs; or

 

(iv)     Executive’s unauthorized disclosure of confidential information of the Company.

 

	 	
(B)
	
“Change of Control” shall mean any of the following:



 

(i)     any “person” (as such term is used in Section 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), (other than a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or any affiliate, or any corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of the Company), acquires “beneficial ownership” (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of securities of the Company representing 35% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities; provided, however, that if the Company engages in a merger or consolidation in which the Company or surviving entity in such merger or consolidation becomes a subsidiary of another entity, then references to the Company’s then outstanding securities shall be deemed to refer to the outstanding securities of such parent entity;

 

(ii)     a change in the composition of the Board, as a result of which fewer than a majority of the directors are Incumbent Directors. “Incumbent Directors” shall mean directors who either (i) are directors of the Company as of the Effective Date, or (ii) are elected, or nominated for election, to the Board with the affirmative votes of at least two-thirds of the Incumbent Directors at the time of such election or nomination, but Incumbent Director shall not include an individual whose election or nomination occurs as a result of either (1) an actual or threatened election contest (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act) or (2) an actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a person other than the Board;

 

 


 

2




 


 

(iii)     the consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity (or if the surviving entity is or shall become a subsidiary of another entity, then such parent entity)) more than 50% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company (or such surviving entity or parent entity, as the case may be) outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation;

 

(iv)     the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Company; or

 

(v)     the sale or disposition (other than a pledge or similar encumbrance) by the Company of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company other than to a subsidiary or subsidiaries of the Company.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, in no event will a redomicile transaction or redomestication of the Company’s place of incorporation to Canada be deemed to constitute a “Change of Control” for purposes of this Agreement.

 

	 	
(C)
	
“Date of Termination” shall mean the date the Notice of Termination is given unless such Notice of Termination is by Executive in which event the Date of Termination shall not be less than 30 days following the date the Notice of Termination is given. Further, a Notice of Termination given by Executive due to a Good Reason event that is corrected by the Company before the Date of Termination shall be void.



 

	 	
(D)
	
“Good Reason” shall mean:



 

(i)     a material reduction in Executive’s authority, duties or responsibilities from those in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control or the assignment to Executive duties or responsibilities materially inconsistent with those of Executive in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control;

 

(ii)     a material reduction of Executive’s compensation and benefits, including, without limitation, annual base salary, annual bonus, and equity incentive opportunities from those in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control;

 

(iii)     the Company fails to obtain a written agreement from any successor or assigns of the Company to assume and perform this Agreement as provided in Section 8 hereof; or

 

(iv)     the Company requires Executive, without Executive’s consent, to be based at any office located more than 50 miles from the Company’s offices to which Executive was based immediately prior to the Change of Control, except for travel reasonably required in the performance of Executive’s duties.

 

 


 

3




 


 

Notwithstanding the above however, Good Reason shall not exist with respect to a matter unless all of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the condition giving rise to Executive’s termination of employment must have arisen without Executive’s consent; and (ii) (1) Executive must provide written notice to the Company of such condition in accordance with Section 10 within 30 days of the initial existence of the condition, (2) the condition specified in such notice must remain uncorrected for 30 days after receipt of such notice by the Company and (3) the date of Executive’s termination of employment must occur within 30 days after the expiration of the cure period set forth in (2) above.

 

For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall be construed to refer to Executive’s positions, duties, and responsibilities in the position or positions in which Executive serves immediately before the Change of Control, but shall not include titles or positions with subsidiaries and affiliates of the Company that are held primarily for administrative convenience.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, in no event will a redomicile transaction or redomestication of the Company’s place of incorporation to Canada be deemed to constitute “Good Reason” for purposes of this Agreement.

 

	 	
(E)
	
“Notice of Termination” shall mean a written notice delivered to the other party indicating the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon for termination of Executive’s employment and shall set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated. For this purpose, termination of Executive’s employment shall be interpreted consistent with the meaning of the term “Separation from Service” in Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and applicable regulation authority.



 

	 	
(F)
	
“Protected Period” shall mean the 18-month period beginning on the effective date of a Change of Control.



 

	 	
(G)
	
“Target AICP” shall mean the targeted value of Executive’s annual incentive compensation plan bonus for the year in which the Date of Termination occurs or the fiscal year immediately preceding the Change of Control, whichever is a greater amount.



 

	 	
(H)
	
“Termination Base Salary” shall mean Executive’s base salary at the rate in effect at the time the Notice of Termination is given or, if a greater amount, Executive’s base salary at the rate in effect immediately prior to the Change of Control.



 

	
3.
	
No Employment Agreement.



 

	 	
(A)
	
This Agreement shall be considered solely as a “severance agreement” obligating the Company to pay Executive certain amounts of compensation and to provide certain benefits in the event and only in the event of Executive’s termination of employment for the specified reasons and at the times specified herein. The parties agree that this Agreement shall not be considered an employment agreement and that Executive is an “at will” employee of the Company.



 

 


 

4




 


 

	 	
(B)
	
Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Company and Executive prior to the termination of Executive’s employment, any termination of Executive’s employment shall constitute an automatic resignation of Executive as an officer of the Company and each affiliate of the Company, and an automatic resignation of Executive from the Board and the board of directors of the Company (if applicable) and from the board of directors or similar governing body of any affiliate of the Company and from the board of directors or similar governing body of any corporation, limited liability entity or other entity in which the Company or any affiliate holds an equity interest and with respect to which board or similar governing body Executive serves as the Company’s or such affiliate’s designee or other representative.



 

	
4.
	
Regular Severance Benefits.



 

Subject to Section 13, if the Company terminates Executive’s employment other than for Cause and not during the Protected Period, Executive shall receive the following compensation and benefits from the Company:

 

	 	
(A)
	
Within 15 days of the expiration of the Release Period (as defined in Section 13), the Company shall pay to Executive in a lump sum, in cash, an amount equal to one times the sum of Executive’s (i) Termination Base Salary and (ii) Target AICP. 



 

	 	
(B)
	
Notwithstanding anything in any Company stock plan or grant agreement to the contrary, all restricted shares, restricted stock units, phantom stock units or any other equity based award of Executive shall, to the extent such awards would have vested in accordance with their terms had Executive remained employed for the 12-month period following the Date of Termination, become vested and restrictions thereon shall lapse as of the expiration of the Release Period, and the Company shall promptly deliver such shares to Executive.



 

	 	
(C)
	
For the 12-month period following the date of termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, the Company shall continue to provide Executive and Executive’s eligible family members with medical and dental health benefits at least equal to those which would have been provided to Executive if Executive’s employment had not been terminated. The medical and dental health benefits coverage shall be provided at full cost to the Executive during the applicable period. The Company shall also provide Executive with a lump sum payment within 15 days following the expiration of each of the four, sixth-month periods following termination of Executive’s employment with the Company in such amount that, after all taxes on that amount, shall be equal to the full cost, reduced by the cost sharing applicable to active employees, of providing Executive and Executive’s eligible family members with medical and dental health benefits coverage during each such preceding six-month period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such benefits coverage shall not continue beyond the first sixty days following termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, and the lump sum payments shall not be paid, unless Executive complies with the requirements of Section 13 hereof by executing a general release. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Executive becomes eligible to receive medical and dental benefits under another employer’s plans during the 12-month period following the date of termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, the Company’s obligations under this Section 4C shall be reduced to the extent comparable benefits are actually received by Executive during such period, and any such benefits actually received by Executive shall be promptly reported by Executive to the Company. In the event Executive is ineligible under the terms of the Company’s health and other welfare benefit plans or programs to continue to be so covered during the 12-month period following the date of termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, the Company shall provide Executive with substantially equivalent coverage through other sources or will provide Executive with a lump sum payment within 15 days following the expiration of each of the four, six-month periods following termination of Executive’s employment with the Company in such amount that, after all taxes on that amount, shall be equal to the cost of providing Executive and Executive’s eligible family members with the medical and dental health benefits coverage during each such preceding six-month period. Any lump sum shall be determined on a present value basis using the interest rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code on the Date of Termination.

Change of Control Severance Benefits



 

Subject to Section 13, if either (a) Executive terminates his employment during the Protected Period for a Good Reason event or (b) the Company terminates Executive’s employment during the Protected Period other than for Cause, Executive shall receive, the following compensation and benefits from the Company:

 

	 	
(A)
	
Within 15 days of the expiration of the Release Period, the Company shall pay to Executive in a lump sum, in cash, an amount equal to two times the sum of Executive’s (i) Termination Base Salary and (ii) Target AICP.



 

	 	
(B)
	
Notwithstanding anything in any Company stock plan or grant agreement to the contrary, (i) all restricted shares, restricted stock units, phantom stock units and any other equity based award of Executive shall become 100% vested and all restrictions thereon shall lapse as of the expiration of the Release Period, and the Company shall promptly deliver such shares (or cash in lieu of shares in the case of phantom stock unit awards) to Executive and (ii) each then outstanding stock option of Executive shall become 100% exercisable as of the expiration of the Release Period and shall remain exercisable for 30 days following the lapse of the Release Period.



 

	 	
(C)
	
Executive shall be fully vested in Executive’s accrued benefits under all qualified pension, nonqualified pension, profit sharing, 401(k), deferred compensation and supplemental plans maintained by the Company for Executive’s benefit as of the lapse of such sixty-day period except to that the extent the acceleration of vesting of such benefits would violate any applicable law or require the Company to accelerate the vesting of the accrued benefits of all participants in such plan or plans, in which event the Company shall pay Executive a lump sum amount, in cash, within 15 days of the lapse of such sixty-day period, equal to the present value of such unvested accrued benefits that cannot become vested under the plan for the reasons provided above.

(D)
	
For the 24-month period following the date of termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, the Company shall continue to provide Executive and Executive’s eligible family members with medical and dental health benefits at least equal to those which would have been provided to Executive if Executive’s employment had not been terminated. The medical and dental health benefits coverage shall be provided at full cost to the Executive during the applicable period. The Company shall also provide Executive with a lump sum payment within 15 days following the expiration of each of the six, sixth-month periods following termination of Executive’s employment with the Company in such amount that, after all taxes on that amount, shall be equal to the full cost, reduced by the cost sharing applicable to active employees, of providing Executive and Executive’s eligible family members with medical and dental health benefits coverage during each such preceding six-month period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such benefits coverage shall not continue beyond the first sixty days following termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, and the lump sum payments shall not be paid, unless Executive complies with the requirements of Section 13 hereof by executing a general release. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Executive becomes eligible to receive medical, dental and disability benefits under another employer’s plans during the 24-month period following the date of termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, the Company’s obligations under this Section 5D shall be reduced to the extent comparable benefits are actually received by Executive during such period, and any such benefits actually received by Executive shall be promptly reported by Executive to the Company. In the event Executive is ineligible under the terms of the Company’s health and other welfare benefit plans or programs to continue to be so covered during the 24-month period following the date of termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, the Company shall provide Executive with substantially equivalent coverage through other sources or will provide Executive with a lump sum payment within 15 days following the expiration of each of the six, six-month periods following termination of Executive’s employment with the Company in such amount that, after all taxes on that amount, shall be equal to the cost of providing Executive and Executive’s eligible family members with medical and dental health benefits coverage during each such preceding six-month period. Any lump sum shall be determined on a present value basis using the interest rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code on the Date of Termination.



 

 


 

7




 


 

	 	
(E)
	
For the period beginning on the date of termination of Executive’s employment with the Company and ending on December 31 of the second calendar year following the calendar year which includes the date of termination, or until Executive accepts other employment, including as an independent contractor, with a new employer, Executive shall be entitled to receive outplacement services, payable by the Company, with an aggregate cost not to exceed 15% of Executive’s Termination Base Salary, with an executive outplacement service firm reasonably acceptable to the Company and Executive.



 

	
6.
	
Parachute Taxes.



 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is a “disqualified individual” (as defined in Section 280G(c) of the Code), and the payments and benefits provided for under this Agreement, together with any other payments and benefits which Executive has the right to receive from the Company or any of its affiliates, would constitute a “parachute payment” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code), then the payments and benefits provided for under this Agreement shall be either (a) reduced (but not below zero) so that the present value of such total amounts and benefits received by Executive from the Company and its affiliates will be one dollar ($1.00) less than three times Executive’s “base amount”(as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) and so that no portion of such amounts and benefits received by Executive shall be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or (b) paid in full, whichever produces the better net after-tax position to Executive (taking into account any applicable excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code and any other applicable taxes). The reduction of payments and benefits hereunder, if applicable, shall be made by reducing, first, payments or benefits to be paid in cash hereunder in the order in which such payment or benefit would be paid or provided (beginning with such payment or benefit that would be made last in time and continuing, to the extent necessary, through to such payment or benefit that would be made first in time) and, then, reducing any benefit to be provided in kind hereunder in a similar order. The determination as to whether any such reduction in the amount of the payments and benefits provided hereunder is necessary shall be made by the Company. If a reduced payment or benefit is made or provided and through error or otherwise that payment or benefit, when aggregated with other payments and benefits from the Company (or its affiliates) used in determining if a parachute payment exists, exceeds one dollar ($1.00) less than three times Executive’s base amount, then Executive shall immediately repay such excess to the Company upon notification that an overpayment has been made.

 

	
7.
	
Mitigation.



 

Executive shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise nor, except as provided in Section 4C and Section 5D shall the amount of any payment or benefit provided for in this Agreement be reduced by any compensation earned or benefit received by Executive as the result of employment by another employer or self-employment, by retirement benefits, by offset against any amount claimed to be owed by Executive to the Company or otherwise. Executive shall not be entitled to receive any severance payments or benefits pursuant to any Company severance plan or program for employees in general.

 

 


 

8




 


 

	
8.
	
Successor Agreement.



 

The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no succession had taken place. Failure of the successor to so assume shall constitute a breach of this Agreement and entitle Executive to the benefits hereunder as if triggered by a termination by the Company other than for Cause.

 

	
9.
	
Indemnity.



 

In any situation where under applicable law the Company has the power to indemnify, advance expenses to and defend Executive in respect of any judgments, fines, settlements, loss, cost or expense (including attorneys fees) of any nature related to or arising out of Executive’s activities as an agent, employee, officer or director of the Company or in any other capacity on behalf of or at the request of the Company, then the Company shall promptly on written request, indemnify Executive, advance expenses (including attorney’s fees) to Executive and defend Executive to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including but not limited to making such findings and determinations and taking any and all such actions as the Company may, under applicable law, be permitted to have the discretion to take so as to effectuate such indemnification, advancement or defense. Such agreement by the Company shall not be deemed to impair any other obligation of the Company respecting Executive’s indemnification or defense otherwise arising out of this or any other agreement or promise of the Company under any statute.

 

	
10.
	
Code Section 409A Restrictions. 



 

	 	
(A)
	
Each payment under this Agreement, including each payment in a series of installment payments, is intended to be a separate payment for purposes of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-2(b), and is intended to be: (i) exempt from Section 409A of the Code, the regulations and other binding guidance promulgated thereunder (“Section 409A”), including, but not limited to, by compliance with the short-term deferral exemption as specified in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(4) and the involuntary separation pay exception within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii), or (ii) in compliance with Section 409A, including, but not limited to, being paid pursuant to a fixed schedule or specified date pursuant to Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-3(a) and the provisions of this Agreement will be administered, interpreted and construed accordingly.



 

	 	
(B)
	
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if payment of any amounts under this Agreement would be subject to additional taxes and interest under Section 409A because the timing of such payments is not delayed as provided in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code and the regulations thereunder, then any such payments that Executive would otherwise be entitled to during the first six months following the date of the Executive’s termination of employment with the Company shall be accumulated and paid on the first business day that is six months after the date of the Executive’s termination of employment with the Company, or such earlier date upon which such payments can be paid under Section 409A without being subject to such additional taxes and interest. If this Section becomes applicable such that any payments are delayed, any payments that are so delayed shall accrue interest on a non-compounded basis, from the date they would otherwise have been made absent such delay to the actual date of payment, at the prime or base rate of interest announced by Wells Fargo Bank (or any successor thereto) at its principal office in Houston, Texas on the date of such termination, which shall be paid in a lump sum on the actual date of payment of the delayed payments.

(C)
	
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if benefits to be made available under this Agreement would be subject to additional taxes and interest under Section 409A because the provision of such benefits is not delayed for the first six months following the date of the Executive’s termination of employment with the Company as provided in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code and the regulations thereunder, such benefits shall not be delayed; however, the Executive shall pay to the Company, at the time or times such benefits are provided, the fair market value of such benefits, and the Company shall reimburse the Executive for any such payments on the fifth business day following the expiration of such six-month period.



 

	 	
(D)
	
Executive hereby agrees to be bound by the Company’s determination of its “specified employees” (as such term is defined in Section 409A) in accordance with any of the methods permitted under the regulations issued under Section 409A.
