W I T N E S S E T H:

upon the terms set forth in this Agreement; and 
 WHEREAS, Company, Holdings and Employee are parties to the Amended and
Restated Employment Agreement, dated February 16, 2011 (the “Old Employment Agreement”), which superseded and replaced the original Employment Agreement, dated May 3, 2006, the Amended and Restated Employment Agreement,
dated December 29, 2008, and the letter agreement dated March 10, 2009; and 
 WHEREAS, the parties now wish to amend
and restate the Old Employment Agreement in its entirety as set forth herein. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the
premises and mutual covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the adequacy and receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 

1. Effective Date. Effective as of the Closing, the Company hereby continues the employment of Employee and Employee hereby
continues employment with Company for the Term (as defined below) in the position and with the duties and responsibilities set forth in Section 3 below, and upon the other terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter stated. The term
“Effective Date” shall be the Closing Date (as defined below). This Agreement shall become effective upon and as of the Closing (as defined below). Notwithstanding any implication herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall be null
and void and shall be of no force and effect, and no party hereto shall have any liability hereunder to any other party hereto, upon the termination of the Purchase Agreement (as defined below) in accordance with the terms thereof; provided,
however, if this Agreement does become null and void pursuant thereto, the Old Employment Agreement shall survive and thereby remain in effect and continue thereto for the benefit of Employee. For purposes of this Agreement, (i) the term
“Purchase Agreement” means the Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated November 4, 2011, by and among, Parent, Holdings and each of the Sellers listed on Annex I attached thereto, (ii) the term “Closing” has
the meaning given to such term in the Purchase Agreement and (iii) the term “Closing Date” has the meaning given to such term in the Purchase Agreement. 
 2. Term. The initial term of this Agreement shall commence as of the Closing and shall continue until the earlier of (a) December 31, 2014, or (b) the earlier termination of
Employee’s employment pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement (the “Initial Term”). Subject to the earlier termination of Employee’s employment pursuant to Section 7, this Agreement shall








 
automatically be renewed for successive two (2) year periods commencing on the expiration of the Initial Term and each second anniversary thereof thereafter (the “Renewal
Term”), unless either party provides the other with at least ninety (90) days’ prior written notice of its intent not to so renew; provided, however, that the party receiving such notice may waive the 90-day notice
requirement. The term “Term” shall mean the Initial Term together with any Renewal Term(s). The term “Renewal Deadline” shall mean the last day on which notice of non-renewal is permitted to be given under this
Agreement but in no event later than September 30 of the applicable year. 
 3. Position, Duties, Responsibilities and
Services. 
 3.1 Position, Duties and Responsibilities. During the Term, Employee shall serve as the Chairman of the
Board, President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer of Company, in which capacities Employee shall perform the usual and customary duties, and have the usual and customary authority and status, of those offices, which shall be
those normally inherent in such capacities in U.S. publicly-reporting corporations of similar size and character. Employee shall also have such other managerial duties and responsibilities with Company, its subsidiaries or divisions as may be
assigned by the Board of Directors of Company (the “Board”) to the extent consistent with the immediately preceding sentence. Employee shall be subject to the supervision and control of the Board. 

3.2 Services to be Provided. During the Term, Employee shall (i) devote substantially all his full working time, attention
and energies to the affairs of Company and its subsidiaries and divisions, (ii) use his best efforts to promote its and their best interests, (iii) faithfully and diligently perform his duties and responsibilities hereunder, and
(iv) comply with and be bound by Company’s operational policies, procedures and practices as are from time to time in effect during the Term. Employee acknowledges that his duties and responsibilities will require substantially all his
full-time business efforts and agrees during his employment by Company that he will not engage in any other business activity or have any business pursuits or interests, except activities or pursuits which the Board has determined, in its reasonable
judgment, after notice by Employee, do not conflict with the business of Company and its subsidiaries or interfere with the performance by Employee of his duties hereunder; provided, however, that the Excepted Investments and Activities (as
defined in Section 9) and the expenditure by Employee of a reasonable amount of time to monitor such investments and participate in such Activities shall be deemed not to conflict with the business of Company and its subsidiaries or to
interfere with the performance by Employee of his duties hereunder. This Agreement shall not be construed as preventing Employee from serving as an outside director of any other company or from investing his assets in such form or manner as will not
require a material amount of his time, subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9 below; provided, however, that the Excepted Investments and Activities (as defined in Section 9) and the expenditure of a
reasonable amount of time by Employee to monitor such investment and participate in such Activities shall be deemed not to be prohibited by this sentence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to Wasatch Valley Pizza, LLC
(“WVP”), Executive (i) shall not permit WVP, and shall cause WVP not to, acquire any Pizza Hut franchise outside of WVP’s existing territory without the prior written consent of the Company and (ii) shall ensure he
does not spend a material amount of time monitoring the WVP investment and participating in WVP operations.

 3.3 Location of Services to be Provided. Employee’s principal place of business
during the Term shall be within thirty-five (35) miles of Overland Park, Kansas (the “Principal Place of Employment”), with it being agreed that Employee shall travel to other locations as reasonably necessary for the
performance of his duties and responsibilities hereunder. 
 4. Compensation. 

4.1 Base Salary. Commencing on the Effective Date, Employee shall be paid a base salary (“Base Salary”) at an
annual rate of Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($700,000) per year, payable consistently with Company’s current payroll practices. The Base Salary shall be reviewed at least annually by the Board (with the first such increase/evaluation
occurring in the first calendar quarter of 2012) during the Term for an increase based on merit and other relevant factors, and may be increased but not decreased during the Term, other than pursuant to a systematic reduction that is applicable to
the entire executive management team. Employee shall receive annual written notice of the Base Salary that will be applicable for the immediately succeeding fiscal year at least thirty (30) days in advance of the end of such prior fiscal year.
Except where expressly provided otherwise, each year referenced under Sections 4.1 and 4.2 hereof shall be interpreted to be an annual fiscal year of Company. For purposes of this Agreement, “systematic reduction” shall mean
a reduction in salary for all employees within the “management team,” as defined hereafter, that is the same reduction of salary on a proportional basis for the members of the management team. In addition, for purposes of this Agreement,
“management team” shall be defined as those members of management whose compensation is reviewed annually, following historical practices, by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. 

4.2 Bonus Compensation. 
 (a) Calculation of Bonus Compensation. Employee’s annual bonus compensation (“Bonus Compensation”) for each year during the Term shall be calculated as provided in Exhibit C,
until changed by written agreement of Company and Employee, which for the avoidance of doubt may be effected in a separate agreement between Company and Employee. Employee and Company may agree from time to time by amendment to this Agreement or in
such separate agreement to revise the bonus arrangement in Exhibit C or substitute a new Exhibit C for the form then attached to this Agreement. 
 (b) Board Discretion. In addition to the Bonus Compensation determined pursuant to Section 4.2(a), the Board, in its sole and exclusive discretion, may award Employee additional bonus
compensation in recognition of outstanding performance. 
 (c) Timing of Payment. Company shall pay the Bonus
Compensation and any payment to be made pursuant to Section 4.2(b) to Employee within thirty (30) days of the completion by Company’s certified public accountants of their audit of Company’s financial statements for the
applicable fiscal year or, if the employment of Employee shall have been terminated for any reason prior to such date, in accordance with Section 7 below; but in no event later than March 15 of the calendar year following the
completion of the fiscal year in which the services in respect of such Bonus Compensation were rendered.

 4.3 Options. Simultaneous with the Closing, Employee will be granted, subject to the
terms and conditions of a stock option plan adopted by the Board of Directors of Parent (the “Parent Board”) and a stock option agreement (in form and substance satisfactory to the Parent Board and Employee) to be entered into
between Parent and Employee (it being understood that such grant shall be conditioned upon the execution of such option agreement by Employee), options to purchase a number of shares of Parent’s common stock equal to 3.325% of the shares of
Parent’s common stock outstanding as of the Closing (determined on a fully diluted basis). 
 5. Employee Benefits.

 5.1 Benefit Plans. During the Term, Employee shall, subject to applicable eligibility requirements, be entitled to
participate in and receive benefits generally made available from time to time to senior executive officers of Company under all benefit programs, arrangements or perquisites of Company; provided, however, that it is agreed that Employee shall not
participate in the NPC International, Inc. 401(k) Plan. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, (a) Employee shall continue to receive, throughout the Term, short- and long-term disability insurance as in effect for Employee
immediately prior to the Effective Date, and (b) Employee shall be entitled to receive perquisites that are no less favorable to Employee than those described in Exhibit A attached hereto throughout the Term. In addition, Company agrees to use
its commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain, at Company’s cost, additional long-term disability coverage applicable to Employee and any Permanent Disability (as defined in Section 7.2) he incurs after the Effective Date (or
alternatively, to reimburse Employee for an long-term disability coverage policy individually secured by himself for the same purpose) in an amount of up to Three Hundred Sixty Thousand Dollars ($360,000) per year when aggregated with the benefits
already provided to Employee under Company’s existing long-term disability insurance as presently in effect; such additional long-term disability coverage shall commence on the day immediately following the day that Employee’s short-term
disability coverage provided by the Company ends (or if the Company does not provide any such short-term disability coverage then commencing as of the day of his Permanent Disability) and continue until the earlier to occur of (a) the
termination of such Permanent Disability (as defined in Section 7.2), or (b) age sixty-five (65). In addition, Company shall pay or reimburse (as the case may be) the premiums for life insurance in the amount of Two Million Dollars
($2,000,000), payable to Employee and Employee’s heirs upon death. 
 5.2 Vacation. During the Term, Employee shall
be entitled to receive vacation, pay for accrued vacation not taken at the end of the Term, and carryover to subsequent years of vacation not taken, in each case, in accordance with Company policy in effect from time to time, but in no event less
than four (4) weeks vacation with pay in any one (1) calendar year (pro-rated as necessary for partial calendar years during the Term); provided that in no event shall more than two (2) weeks of vacation not taken (on a
cumulative basis from all prior years) be carried forward to any subsequent year. Such vacation may be taken, in Employee’s discretion, at such time or times as are not inconsistent with the reasonable business needs of Company. 

5.3 Car Allowance. Company shall provide a car allowance to Employee in the amount of Four Thousand Six Hundred Two Dollars
($4,602) for each year of the Term. 

  
 4 








 6. Expenses. During the Term, Company shall reimburse Employee upon presentation of
appropriate vouchers or receipts and in accordance with Company’s expense reimbursement policies for senior executive officers, for all reasonable travel and entertainment expenses incurred by Employee in connection with the performance of his
duties under this Agreement. 
 7. Consequences of Termination of Employment. 

7.1 Death. In the event of the death of Employee during the Term, Employee’s employment hereunder shall be terminated as of
the date of his death and Employee’s designated beneficiary, or, in the absence of such designation, the estate or other legal representative of Employee (collectively, the “Estate”) shall be paid (a) Employee’s
unpaid Base Salary through the date on which the death occurs, payable no later than thirty (30) days following his date of death, (b) any unpaid Bonus Compensation for any fiscal year which has ended as of the date of death, payable at
the same time that such Bonus Compensation would have otherwise been payable hereunder, (c) the Pro Rata Bonus Amount for the fiscal year in which the date of death occurs, payable at the same time that such Bonus Compensation would have
otherwise been payable hereunder, and (d) any accrued vacation pay for vacation that has not yet been taken as of the date of death, payable no later than thirty (30) days following his date of death. The term “Pro Rata Bonus
Amount” means the actual Bonus Compensation for the year in which Employee’s employment terminates based on the actual performance for such year and determined at the time that such bonuses would otherwise be paid, times a fraction,
(i) the numerator of which is the number of days in such year through and including the date in which Employee’s employment terminates, and (ii) the denominator of which is 365. The Estate shall be entitled to all other death benefits
in accordance with the terms of Company’s benefit plans. 
 7.2 Permanent Disability. In the event Employee becomes
subject to a Permanent Disability, as determined in good faith by the Compensation Committee of the Board, Company shall have the right to terminate his employment by giving Employee thirty (30) days’ prior written notice. If
Employee’s employment hereunder is so terminated, Employee shall be paid, in addition to payments under any disability insurance policy in effect, (a) Employee’s unpaid Base Salary through the date on which such termination occurs,
payable no later than thirty (30) days following such termination date, (b) Bonus Compensation on the same basis as is set forth in Section 7.1 above, and (c) any accrued vacation pay for vacation that has not yet been
taken as of the date on which termination of employment becomes effective, payable no later than thirty (30) days following such termination date. The term “Permanent Disability” means the existence of an illness or incapacity
(either physical or mental) which, in the reasonable opinion of a Qualified Physician, is likely to be of such character or severity that Employee would be unable to resume devoting substantially his full normal working time as required herein to
his employment hereunder for a period of at least six (6) consecutive months; provided, however, in no event shall such determination be based on a standard which is more stringent than any standard otherwise established in the policy secured
by the Company for payment of additional long-term disability coverage as provided under Section 5.1. The term “Qualified Physician” means an impartial physician competent to diagnose and treat the illness or condition
which Employee is believed to be suffering, selected by Company and reasonably acceptable to Employee (or if Employee is then incapable of acting for himself, Employee’s personal representative), who shall have personally examined Employee and
shall have personally reviewed Employee’s relevant medical records; provided that Company shall bear the 

  
 5 








 
costs of such Qualified Physician’s services in connection with rendering such opinion and Employee agrees to submit to an examination by such Qualified Physician and to the disclosure of
Employee’s relevant medical records to such Qualified Physician. 
 7.3 Termination of Employment of Employee by Company
for Cause. Company may terminate Employee’s employment for Cause (as defined below) upon receipt by Employee of written notice specifying the date on which such termination shall become effective and notifying Employee of the grounds
constituting Cause (a “Notice of Termination for Cause”); provided, however, that Cause shall not exist unless and until Company has delivered to Employee a copy of a resolution that the Board adopts at a meeting of the Board
(or a written resolution signed by all of the members of the Board other than Employee) finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, Employee was guilty of the conduct constituting Cause. In the event Employee is terminated for Cause,
Employee shall be paid (a) his unpaid Base Salary through the date of termination, payable no later than thirty (30) days following his termination date, (b) any unpaid Bonus Compensation for any fiscal year that has ended prior to
the year in which such termination occurs, payable at the same time that such Bonus Compensation would have otherwise been payable hereunder, (c) any accrued vacation pay for vacation that has not yet been taken as of the date on which
termination of employment becomes effective, payable no later than thirty (30) days following his termination date, and (d) any other benefits to which he is entitled by any other benefit plan and by applicable law but payable in
accordance with the terms of such underlying plan. The term “Cause” as used herein, shall mean (i) Employee’s misappropriation of funds, embezzlement or fraud in the performance of his duties hereunder, (ii) the
continued failure or refusal of Employee (following written notice thereof) to carry out in any material respect any reasonable request of the Board for the provision of services hereunder, (iii) the material breach of any material provision of
this Agreement or of any Company policy regarding acts of moral turpitude, dishonesty, theft or unethical business conduct, or (iv) the entering of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, or the conviction of Employee of, a felony. 

7.4 Termination of Employment Other than for Cause, Death or Disability. 

(a) Termination. Employee’s employment may be terminated (i) by Company (for reasons in addition to termination pursuant
to Sections 7.1, 7.2 or 7.3 above) at any time and for any reason or (ii) by Employee at any time for Good Reason (as defined in paragraph (b) immediately below) and for any other reason, provided that any termination
of Employee’s employment, other than by reason of death, Permanent Disability, Cause or expiration of the Term, must be preceded by a Notice of Termination given at least thirty (30) calendar days in advance of the effective date of
termination and which shall specify the effective date of termination, the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon as the basis for termination. 
 (b) Severance Payments. 
 (1) If this Agreement is
terminated by Company, other than as a result of death or Permanent Disability of Employee or for Cause, (“Termination Without Cause”), or Employee terminates this Agreement for Good Reason, Company shall pay to Employee, in
accordance with this Section 7.4(b), a severance and non-competition payment in an amount equal to (A) the sum of the Accrued Obligations (as defined 

  
 6 








 
below), plus (B) the product of (x) the sum of the lump sum Employee’s Base Salary and the Bonus Compensation earned by Employee in respect of the last year immediately preceding
the year of termination, multiplied by (y) one and one-half (1.5). Such severance and non-competition payment (other than with respect to the Accrued Obligations, which shall be paid at such time such Accrued Obligations would otherwise be
required to be paid to Employee) shall be payable in eighteen (18) equal monthly installments; provided that any such payments of the Severance Payments shall not commence until the first payroll date following the date the General
Release is executed and no longer subject to revocation, with the first such payment being in an amount equal to the total amount to which Employee would otherwise have been entitled with respect to such Severance Payments during the period
following the date of termination if such deferral had not been required. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (x) Employee shall not be entitled to receive any payments pursuant to this Section 7.4(b(1) (except for the
Accrued Obligations) (the “Severance Payments”), and Employee shall forfeit all rights to such payments, unless Employee has executed and delivered to Company a general release in form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the
“General Release”), and such General Release remains in full force and effect, has not been revoked and is no longer subject to revocation, within 60 days of the date of termination of Employee’s employment and
(y) Employee shall be entitled to receive such Severance Payments pursuant to this Section 7.4(b)(1) only so long as Employee has not breached any of the provisions of the General Release or Section 8 or
Section 9 hereof. The term “Accrued Obligations” means the sum of (i) Base Salary that is accrued but unpaid as of the date on which the termination of employment becomes effective; (ii) any unpaid Bonus
Compensation for any fiscal year which has ended prior to the year in which the date of such termination occurs, (iii) any accrued vacation pay for vacation that has not yet been taken as of the date on which the termination of employment
becomes effective, (iv) any other amounts due Employee under any benefit plan or in accordance with applicable law as of the date on which the termination of employment becomes effective, and (v) the Pro Rata Bonus Amount for the fiscal
year in which the date of termination occurs. 
 The term “Good Reason” means the occurrence, without Employee’s
prior written consent, of any one or more of the following: 
 (i) The assignment to Employee of duties
inconsistent with those set forth in Section 3.1 (it being acknowledged by Employee, however, that the hiring of a Chief Operating Officer by Company will not give rise to Good Reason hereunder); 

(ii) The relocation of the principal place of employment to a location more than 35 miles from the current Principal Place
of Employment; 
 (iii) A reduction of twenty percent (20%) or more in Employee’s annual bonus
opportunity, other than pursuant to a systematic reduction that is applicable to the entire executive management team; 
 (iv) Company’s material breach of any material provision of this Agreement; 

  
 7 








 (v) Any reduction whatsoever in Employee’s Base Salary, other than
pursuant to a systematic reduction that is applicable to the entire executive management team; or

requirement that Employee report to a Company officer or employee instead of reporting directly to the Board; 
 provided,
that Company shall have thirty (30) days from the date on which Company receives Employee’s notice of termination for Good Reason to remedy any occurrence constituting Good Reason and Employee immediately after Company’s failure to
remedy such occurrence, terminates employment. 
 (2) If Employee terminates his employment voluntarily prior to
the expiration of the Term, Employee shall be paid (a) his unpaid Base Salary, through the end of the month in which the voluntary termination occurs, payable no later than thirty (30) days following such termination date, (b) any
unpaid Bonus Compensation for any fiscal year which has ended prior to the year in which the date of such termination occurs payable at the same time that such Bonus Compensation would have otherwise been payable hereunder, and (c) any other
benefits to which he is entitled under this Agreement and by applicable law.

8.1 Employee agrees not to use, disclose or make accessible to any other person, firm, partnership, corporation or any other entity any

Company Group, or (ii) when required to do so by a court of competent jurisdiction, by any governmental agency having supervisory authority over the business of the Company Group, or by any administrative body or legislative body (including a
committee thereof) with jurisdiction to order any of the Company Group to divulge, disclose or make accessible such information. For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” shall mean non-public information concerning

Employee’s employment is terminated hereunder for any reason, he immediately shall return to Company all Confidential Information in his possession. For purposes of this Agreement, “Company Group” means Parent, Holdings, the

 8.2 The parties hereto agree that the covenants contained in this Section 8 are
reasonable under the circumstances, and further agree that if, in the opinion of any court of competent jurisdiction, any such covenants are not reasonable in any respect, such court shall have the right, power and authority to excise or modify such
provision or provisions of such covenants as to the court shall appear not reasonable and to enforce the remainder of such covenants as so amended. Employee agrees that any breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 8 would
irreparably injure Company. Accordingly, Employee agrees that Company, in addition to pursuing any other remedies it may have in law or in equity, may obtain an injunction against Employee from any court having jurisdiction over the matter,
restraining any further violation of this Section 8. 
 9. Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation. 

9.1 Employee agrees that, during the Term and for the eighteen (18) months following his termination or expiration of his employment
for any reason (the “Non-Competition Period”), without the prior written consent of Company: (i) he shall not, in any capacity whatsoever, either directly or indirectly, individually or as a member of (or other association
with) any business organization, (a) engage in the production or sale at retail of any pizza, or pasta, or any Italian food item similar to any Italian food item now or in the future approved by Pizza Hut, Inc or its Affiliates
(“PHI”) for use in the Pizza Hut System (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) in the states within the United States in which any of the Company Group has then-existing locations (the “Territory”), or (b) have
any employment or own an interest, manage, operate, join, control, lend money to or render financial or other assistance to or participate in or be connected with, as an officer, employee, partner, stockholder, consultant or otherwise, any person
engaged in the production or sale of such products in the Territory, provided, however, that, for the purposes of this Section 9.1, ownership of securities having no more than one percent of the voting power of any competitor
which is listed on any national securities exchange shall not be deemed to be in violation of this Section 9.1 as long as the Person owning such securities has no other connection or relationship with such competitor; (ii) he shall
not, on behalf of any competing entity, directly or indirectly, interfere with relationships with any suppliers or customers of any of the Company Group; and (iii) he shall not perform services of any kind in any capacity for PHI;

hire or solicitation, or (b) solicit the suppliers or customers of any of the Company Group, or discourage such clients or customers from doing business with any of the Company Group. 

9.3 The parties hereto agree that the covenants contained in this Section 9 are reasonable covenants under the circumstances,
and further agree that if, in the opinion of any court of competent jurisdiction such covenants are not reasonable in any respect, such court shall have the right, power and authority to excise or modify such provision or provisions of these


  
 9 








 
covenants as to the court shall appear not reasonable and to enforce the remainder of these covenants as so amended. Employee agrees that any breach of the covenants contained in this
Section 9 would irreparably injure the Company Group. Accordingly, Employee agrees that Company, in addition to pursuing any other remedies it may have in law or in equity, may obtain an injunction against Employee from any court having
jurisdiction over the matter, restraining any further violation of this Section 9. In addition, in the event of a breach or violation by Employee of this Section 9 as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, the
Non-Competition Period shall be automatically extended by the amount of time between the initial occurrence of such breach or violation and the time when such breach or violation has been duly cured. 

10. Indemnification; Legal Fees. Company shall indemnify Employee to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of Company’s
state of incorporation in effect at that time. If Employee provides services on behalf of Holdings, Holdings shall indemnify Employee to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law in effect at the time. Employee shall also be entitled to such

benefit of its officers and directors against all damages, liabilities, costs, charges and expenses incurred in connection with any action, suit or proceeding to which he may be made a party by reason of being a director or officer of Company or
providing services on behalf of Holdings (“D&O Policy”); provided, however, that the scope and amount of insurance coverage under the D&O Policy shall be either the same as or no less favorable than the directors and
officers liability insurance provided for the directors and officers of Holdings. To the extent permissible without penalty under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and any other applicable law, Company agrees to advance to Employee any expenses
(including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Employee in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding, to the extent related to Employee’s position with Company (as described in
Section 3) or providing services on behalf of Holdings, prior to the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding; provided, that Employee must agree in writing to repay such advanced amounts if it is ultimately determined that
Employee was found guilty of a criminal act, the defense of which with respect to which the advancement was made, or not entitled to indemnification from Company with respect to such action, suit or proceeding under applicable law. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, none of the Company Group shall be required to provide any of the foregoing to Employee with respect to any claim arising from or related to any breach by Holdings or Employee of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement
contained in the Purchase Agreement, the schedules attached thereto or any certificated delivered by or on behalf of any of them thereunder. 
 11. Withholding: No Mitigation. Company’s obligations to pay Employee the compensation and make the arrangements provided herein shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected
by any circumstance, including any set off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that Company may have against Employee or anyone else, except that Company may cease making any future severance and non-competition payments under
Section 7 in the event that Employee violates any of the restrictive covenants of Section 8 or Section 9, and except as provided in Section 12. Company shall have the right to withhold all applicable
federal, state or local taxes on any amount paid or payable under this Agreement. Except as provided in Section 12, each and every payment that Company makes under this 

  
 10 









 
Agreement shall be final, and Company will not seek to recover all or any part of any payment from Employee or from whosoever may be entitled to the payment, for any reason whatsoever; provided,
however, that the foregoing shall not be construed to limit Company’s rights or remedies under law or contract (including pursuant to Section 12 hereof), or in equity. Employee shall not be obligated to seek other employment in
mitigation of the amounts payable or arrangements made under any provision of this Agreement, and except as otherwise provided herein, the obtaining of any such other employment shall in no event affect Company’s obligations to make the
payments that this Agreement requires. 
 12. Clawback. In the event that the Board hereafter adopts a “clawback
policy” relating to, among other things, the repayment or disgorgement to Company upon certain triggering events of compensation paid to Employee and/or profits earned by Employee in sales of securities, which policy is separately approved in
writing by Company and Employee, such policy shall be deemed incorporated by reference into this Agreement and the terms of this Agreement shall thereafter be subject to the provisions of such policy. 

13. Mutual Nondisparagement. Employee agrees to refrain from making any statements about the Company Group or their respective
officers or directors that would disparage, or reflect unfavorably upon the image or reputation of any of the Company Group or any such officer or director. Parent, Holdings and Company agree to refrain from making (and to cause the Company Group
not to make) any statements about Employee that would disparage, or reflect unfavorably upon the image or reputation of Employee. The foregoing shall not prevent any party hereto from enforcing it’s rights hereunder. 

14. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given if
delivered personally or sent by facsimile transmission or overnight courier. Any such notice shall be deemed given when so delivered personally or sent by facsimile transmission (provided that a confirmation copy is sent by overnight courier) or one

 At the last address on file with Company counsel 
 15. Entire Agreement.
This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the matters contemplated herein and supersedes all prior agreements or understandings among the parties related to such matters (including the Old Employment
Agreement but subject to Section 1 above). 
 16. Binding Effect. Except as otherwise provided herein, this
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Holdings, Company and their respective successors and assigns and upon Employee. “Successors and assigns” shall mean, in the case of Holdings and Company, any successor pursuant
to a merger, consolidation, or sale, or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets or interests of Holdings or Company, as applicable. 
 17. No Assignment. Except as contemplated by Section 16 above, this Agreement shall not be assignable or otherwise transferable by either party. 

18. Amendment or Modification; Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived unless such amendment or waiver is
authorized by the Compensation Committee of the Board and is agreed to in writing, signed by Employee and by a duly authorized officer of Company, and shall not be binding on Holdings without its written consent. Except as otherwise specifically
provided in this Agreement, no waiver by any party hereto of any breach by the other party hereto of any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of a similar or dissimilar provision or
condition at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. 
 19. Dispute Resolution. Any dispute or controversy arising
under or in connection with this Agreement, Employee’s employment or termination of employment by Company or Employee’s rights, compensation or benefits under this Agreement or any benefit plan (a “Dispute”) shall be
settled in accordance with the procedures described in this Section 19. 
 19.1 First, the parties shall attempt in
good faith to resolve any Dispute promptly by negotiations between Employee and executives or directors of Company or Holdings, as the case may be, who have authority to settle the Dispute (the “Company Representatives”). Either
party may give the other disputing party written notice of any Dispute not resolved in the normal course of business. Within five (5) days after the effective date of that notice, Employee and Company Representative shall agree upon a mutually
acceptable time and place to meet and shall meet at that time and place, and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary, to exchange relevant information and to attempt to resolve the Dispute. The first of those meetings shall take place
within thirty (30) days of the effective date of the 

  
 12 









 
disputing party’s notice. If the Dispute has not been resolved within sixty (60) days of the disputing party’s notice, or if the parties fail to agree on a time and place for an
initial meeting within five (5) days of that notice, either party may initiate mediation and arbitration of the Dispute as provided hereinafter. If a negotiator intends to be accompanied at a meeting by an attorney, the other negotiators shall
be given at least three (3) business days’ notice of that intention and may also be accompanied by an attorney. All negotiations pursuant to this Section 19 shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for the
purposes of applicable rules of evidence and procedure. 
 19.2 Second, if the Dispute is not resolved through negotiation as
provided in Section 19.1, either disputing party may require the other to submit to non-binding mediation with the assistance of a neutral, unaffiliated mediator. If the parties encounter difficulty in agreeing upon a neutral, they shall
seek the assistance of JAMS in the selection process. 
 19.3 Any Dispute that has not been resolved by the non-binding
procedures provided in Sections 19.1 and 19.2 within ninety (90) days of the initiation of the first of the procedures shall be finally settled by arbitration conducted expeditiously in accordance with the commercial arbitration
rules of JAMS or of such similar organization as the parties may mutually agree; provided, that if one party has requested the other to participate in a non-binding procedure and the other has failed to participate within thirty (30) days of
the written request, the requesting party may initiate arbitration before the expiration of the period. The arbitration shall be conducted by three independent and impartial arbitrators. Employee shall appoint one arbitrator, Company shall appoint a
second arbitrator, and the first two arbitrators selected shall appoint a third arbitrator. The arbitration shall be held in Overland Park, Kansas. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s award in any court having jurisdiction. The
arbitrators shall award the prevailing party in the arbitration its costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred in connection with the Dispute. 
 19.4 Notwithstanding the dispute resolution provisions of this Section 19, either party may bring an action in a court of competent jurisdiction in an effort to enforce the provisions of this
Section 19. 
 19.5 Waiver of Jury Trial. AS A SPECIFICALLY BARGAINED FOR INDUCEMENT FOR EACH OF THE PARTIES
HERETO TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT (AFTER HAVING THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH COUNSEL), EACH PARTY HERETO EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LAWSUIT OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO OR ARISING IN ANY WAY FROM THIS AGREEMENT OR THE
MATTERS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 
 20. Fees and Expenses. If either party institutes any action or proceedings to enforce
any rights the party has under this Agreement, or for damages by reason of any alleged breach of any provision of this Agreement, or for a declaration of each party’s rights or obligations hereunder or to set aside any provision hereof, or for
any other judicial remedy, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reimbursement from the other party for its costs and expenses incurred thereby, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements.

 21. Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, construction, performance and
enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of Kansas. 
 22. Titles. Titles to the
Sections in this Agreement are intended solely for convenience and no provision of this Agreement is to be construed by reference to the title of any Section. 
 23. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, which together shall constitute one agreement. It shall not be necessary for each party to sign each counterpart so
long as each party has signed at least one counterpart. 
 24. Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement
which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement
or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. 

25. Section 409A. 
 25.1 It is the intent of the parties that the provisions of this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the treasury regulations and guidance issued thereunder
(“Section 409A”) and that this Agreement be interpreted and operated consistent with such requirements of Section 409A in order to avoid the application of additive income taxes under Section 409A (“409A
Penalties”). To the extent that a payment, or the settlement or deferral thereof, is subject to Section 409A, except as Employee and Company otherwise determines in writing, the payment shall be paid, settled or deferred in a manner
that will meet the requirements of Section 409A, such that the payment, settlement or deferral shall not be subject to the 409A Penalties. 
 25.2 Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to the extent any expense reimbursement or the provision of any in-kind benefit under this Agreement is determined to be subject to Section 409A,
the amount of any such expenses eligible for reimbursement, or the provision of any in-kind benefit, in one calendar year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year (except for any life-time or other
aggregate limitation applicable to medical expenses), in no event shall any expenses be reimbursed after the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which Employee incurred such expenses, and in no event shall any right to
reimbursement or the provision of any in-kind benefit be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. 
 25.3 To the
extent that (a) Company’s common stock is publicly traded on an “established securities market” as defined in Treasury Regulations § 1.897-1(m), and (b) Employee would otherwise be entitled to any payment or benefit
under this Agreement or any plan or arrangement of Company or its affiliates, that constitutes “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A and that if paid during the six months beginning on the date of Employee’s termination
of employment would be subject the 409A Penalties because Employee is a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A and as determined from time to time by Company), the payment will be paid to Employee on the earliest of
the six-month anniversary of the termination of employment, a change in ownership or effective control of Company (within the meaning of Section 409A) or Employee’s death. 

  
 14 









 25.4 Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, (a) this Agreement shall not be
amended in any manner that would cause (i) this Agreement or any amounts or benefits payable hereunder to fail to comply with the requirements of Section 409A, to the extent applicable, or (ii) any amounts or benefits payable
hereunder that are not subject to Section 409A to become subject thereto (unless they also are in compliance therewith), and the provisions of any purported amendment that may reasonably be expected to result in such non-compliance shall be of
no force or effect with respect to this Agreement and (b) if any provision of this Agreement would, in the reasonable, good faith judgment of Company, result or likely result in the imposition on Employee or any other person of any adverse
consequences under Section 409A, Company may reform this Agreement, or any provision thereof, without Employee’s consent, in the manner that Company reasonably and in good faith determines to be necessary or advisable to avoid the
imposition of such penalty tax; provided, however, that any such reformation shall, to the maximum extent Company reasonably and in good faith determines to be possible, retain the economic and tax benefits to Employee hereunder, while not
materially increasing the cost to Company of providing such benefits to Employee.

earned for Revenue performance will be 80% of the Revenue Target Bonus Payout (or .80 x 20% of Base Salary, or 16.0% of Base Salary), (iii) if Revenues for a fiscal year are 98% of the Revenue Performance Target, the bonus earned for Revenue

Year
	  	 Percentage of FCF Target Bonus Payout
Earned

	 Less than 90% of FCF Performance Target
	  	0% of FCF Target Bonus Payout
		
	 90.0% to 94.99% of FCF Performance Target

 The amount of bonus earned shall be determined based upon the amount of Free Cash Flow within a specific
range, and the amount of such bonus shall be determined by interpolation on a straight-line basis within the applicable range. For purposes of illustration only, the following are examples of computation of FCF Bonus Compensation earned based upon

Target, the bonus earned for Free Cash Flow performance will be 80% of the FCF Target Bonus Payout (or .80 x 20% of Base Salary, or 16.0% of Base Salary), (iii) if Free Cash Flow for a fiscal year is 98% of the FCF Performance Target, the bonus
earned for Free Cash Flow performance will be 90% of the FCF Target Bonus Payout (or .90 x 20% of Base Salary, or 18.0% of Base Salary), (iv) if Free Cash Flow for a fiscal year is 104% of the FCF Performance Target, the bonus earned will be
120% of the FCF Target Bonus Payout (or 1.20 x 20% of Base Salary or 24.0% of Base Salary) and (v) if Free Cash Flow for a fiscal year is 108% of the FCF Performance Target, the bonus earned will be 125% of the FCF Target Bonus Payout (or 1.25
x 20% of Base Salary or 25.0% of Base Salary). 
 7. Bonus for Management Team Performance. Until changed by written
agreement of Company and Employee, Employee’s Management Performance Bonus Compensation shall be determined based upon achievement of non-Adjusted EBITDA based performance objectives by the following members of management: D. Blayne Vaughn,
Linda L. Sheedy, Lavonne K. Walbert and Michael J. Woods (“Management Team”). For each non-Adjusted EBITDA based performance objective for each member of the Management Team, Employee will be awarded points as follows: 








			
	 Points Awarded
	  	 Performance Level Achieved

	 One point
	  	Threshold Performance
		
	 Two points
	  	Qualifying Performance
		
	 Three Points
	  	Target Performance
		
	 Four Points
	  	Step-Change Performance

 Employee will be awarded only the points designated for the performance level achieved; for example,
achievement of Target Performance for one objective by one of the members of the Management Team will result in an award of three points (and not one point plus two points plus three points). Each of the members of the Management Team will have
three non-Adjusted EBITDA based performance objectives, so that the maximum number of points that Employee may earn for a fiscal year is 48 points. Until changed by written agreement of Company and Employee, Employee’s bonus compensation for
achievement of Management Team performance objectives shall be earned based upon the range that the amount of points awarded to Employee for such fiscal year, as follows: 

 

			
	 Points Awarded for Fiscal Year
	  	 Percentage of Team Target Bonus Payout
Earned

	 0 – 16 points
	  	0% of Team Target Bonus Payout
		
	 17 – 24 points
	  	50% to 71.875% of Team Target Bonus Payout
		
	 25 – 32 points
	  	75% to 96.875% of Team Target Bonus Payout
		
	 33 – 42 points
	  	100% to 118.0% of Team Target Bonus Payout
		
	 43 – 48 points
	  	120% of Team Target Bonus Payout

 The amount of bonus earned shall be determined based upon the achievement of different point levels
within a specific range, and the amount of such bonus shall be determined by interpolation on a straight-line basis within the applicable range. For purposes of illustration only, the following are examples of computation of Management Performance
Bonus Compensation earned based upon Management Team performance: (i) if 14 points are awarded to Employee for a fiscal year, no bonus will be earned for Management Team performance, (ii) if 27 points are awarded to Employee for a fiscal
year, the bonus earned for Management Team performance will be 81.25% of the Team Target Bonus Payout (or .8125 x 10% of Base Salary, or 8.125% of Base Salary), (iii) if 29 points are awarded to Employee for a fiscal year, the bonus earned for
Management Team performance will be 87.5% of the Team Target Bonus Payout (or .875 x 10% of Base Salary, or 8.75% of Base Salary), (iv) if 40 points are awarded to Employee for a fiscal year, the bonus earned will be 114% of the Team Target
Bonus Payout (or 1.14 x 10% of Base Salary or 11.4% of Base Salary) and (v) if 45 points are awarded to Employee for a fiscal year, the bonus earned will be 120% of the Team Target Bonus Payout (or 1.20 x 10% of Base Salary or 12.0% of Base
Salary). 







 8. Bonus Determination. The Adjusted EBITDA Performance Target, Revenue Performance
Target and FCF Performance Target for each fiscal year shall be based on the annual budget of Company for such year which, together with the non-Adjusted EBITDA performance goals and performance levels for members of the Management Team, must be
approved by the Board (and subject to the review of and consent by Olympus Growth Fund V, L.P.). The Adjusted EBITDA Performance Target, Revenue Performance Target, FCF Performance Target and the non-Adjusted EBITDA performance goals and performance
levels for members of the Management Team for the relevant fiscal year that have been determined by the Board and consented to by Olympus Growth Fund V, L.P. shall be furnished to Employee by March 15 of such year, which targets, goals and
levels shall remain in effect for the remainder of such fiscal year unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing by Employee and Company; provided that such targets shall be adjusted as determined in good faith by the Board in consultation with
management to give the full year effect of acquisitions, divestitures, and sale leaseback transactions.
