determined (as herein after provided) that any payment or distribution by Employer or any of its affiliates to or for the benefit of Employee, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or
otherwise pursuant to or by reason of any other agreement, policy, plan, program, or arrangement including, without limitation, any stock option, restricted stock, stock appreciation right or similar right, or the lapse or termination of any
restriction on, or the vesting or exercisability of, any of the foregoing (individually and collectively, a “Payment”), would be subject, but for the application of this Section IV.G.3 to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999
of the Code, or any successor provision thereto (hereinafter the “Excise Tax”), by reason of being considered “contingent on a change in ownership or control” of Employer, within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of
the Code, or any successor provision thereto, then: 
 a. if the After-Tax Payment Amount would be greater by reducing the
amount of the Payment otherwise payable to Employee to the minimum extent necessary (but in no event less than zero) so that, after such reduction, no portion of the Payment would be subject to the Excise Tax, then the Payment shall be so reduced;

Payment. 
 As used in this Section IV.G.3, “After-Tax Payment Amount” means (i) the amount of the
Payment, less (ii) the amount of federal income taxes payable with respect to the Payment calculated at the maximum marginal income tax rate for each year in which the Payment shall be paid to Employee (based upon the rate in effect for such
year as set forth in the Code at the time of the Payment), less (iii) the amount of the Excise Tax, if any, imposed upon the Payment. For purposes of any reduction made under Section IV.G.3.a, the Payments that shall be reduced shall be those
that provide Employee the best economic benefit, and to the extent any Payments are economically equivalent, each shall be reduced pro rata.

 H. Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. The payments to be made under this
Agreement are intended to be exempt from or compliant with Section 409A of the Code. Specifically, the severance payments and benefits under Section IV.F and Section IV.G hereof are intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code by
compliance with the short-term deferral exemption as specified in 26 C.F.R. Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) and/or the separation pay exemption as specified in 26 C.F.R. Section 1.409A-1(b)(9) or are intended to comply with
Section 409A of the Code including, but not limited to, being paid upon disability pursuant to 26 C.F.R. Section 1.409-3(i)(4), pursuant to change in control event pursuant to 26 C.F.R. Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) or pursuant to a fixed
schedule or specified date pursuant to 26 C.F.R. Section 1.409A-3(a), and the provisions of this Agreement will be administered, interpreted and construed accordingly. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employer makes no representation or
warranty and shall have no liability to Employee or any other person if any provisions of this Agreement are determined to constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code and do not satisfy an exemption from, or the
conditions of, Section 409A of the Code. 
 For all purposes of this Agreement, Employee shall be considered to have
terminated employment with Employer when Employee incurs a “separation from service” with the Employer Group within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code. 

If the Committee determines that severance payments due under this Agreement on account of termination of Employee’s employment
constitute “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code, and that Employee is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code and 26 C.F.R. Section 1.409A-1(i), then such
severance payments shall commence on the first payroll date of the seventh month following the month in which Employee’s termination occurs (with the first such payment being a lump sum equal to the aggregate severance payments Employee would
have received during the prior six-month period if no such delay had been imposed). For purposes of this Agreement, whether Employee is a “specified employee” will be determined in accordance with the written procedures adopted by the
Committee which are incorporated by reference herein. 
 All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement
shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations to the extent that such reimbursements or in-kind benefits are not excepted from Section 409A of the Code, including where
applicable, the requirement that (i) any reimbursement is for expenses incurred during Employee’s lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in the Agreement); (ii) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during
the calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year; (iii) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the
expense is incurred; and (iv) the right to reimbursement is not subject to set off or liquidation or exchange for any other benefit. 
 I. Confidential Severance Agreement and Release. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, if Employee has not delivered to Employer an executed Confidential Severance Agreement and
Release (the “Release”) on or before the fiftieth (50th) day after the Date of Termination, or if Employee revokes such executed Release prior to the sixtieth (60th) day after the Date of Termination, Employee shall
forfeit all of the payments and benefits described in Section IV.F.2 or Section IV.F.4, as applicable; provided, however, that Employee 

  
 -10-









 
shall not forfeit such amounts if Employer has not delivered to Employee the required form of Release on or before the 25th day following the Date of Termination. A form of Release is attached as
Exhibit A hereto. Employee acknowledges that Employer retains the right to modify the required form of the Release as Employer deems necessary in order to effectuate a full and complete release of claims against the Employer Group and its
affiliates, officers and directors. 
 V. COMPANY-RELATED INVENTIONS AND DEVELOPMENTS 

A. Records of Inventions. Employee shall keep complete and current written records of Inventions and Developments made during the
course of his employment with Employer and promptly disclose all such Inventions and Developments in writing to Employer so that it may adequately determine its rights in such Inventions and Developments. Employee shall supplement any such
disclosure to the extent Employer may request. If Employee has any doubt as to whether or not to disclose any Inventions and Developments, Employee shall disclose the same to Employer. 

B. Ownership of Inventions. All Company-Related Inventions and Developments made by Employee during the term of his employment
with Employer shall be the sole and exclusive property of the applicable member(s) of the Employer Group. Employee shall assign, and does hereby assign, his entire right, title and interest in such Company-Related Inventions and Developments to the
applicable member(s) of the Employer Group. Employer’s ownership and the foregoing assignment shall apply, without limitation, to all rights under the patent, copyright, and trade secret laws of any jurisdiction relating to Company-Related
Inventions and Developments. If Employee asserts any property right in any Inventions and Developments made by Employee during the term of his employment with Employer, Employee shall promptly notify Employer of the same in writing. 

C. Cooperation with Employer. Employee shall assist and fully cooperate with Employer in obtaining and maintaining the fullest
measure of legal protection which the Employer Group elects to obtain and maintain for Inventions and Developments in which the Employer Group has a property right. Employee shall execute any lawful document requested by Employer relating to
obtaining and maintaining legal protection for any said Inventions and Developments including, but not limited to, executing applications, assignments, oaths, declarations and affidavits. Employee shall make himself available for interviews,
depositions and testimony relating to any said Inventions and Developments. These obligations shall survive the termination of Employee’s employment with Employer, provided that Employer shall compensate Employee at a reasonable rate after such
termination for time actually spent by Employee at Employer’s requests on such assistance. In the event Employer is unable for any reason whatsoever to secure Employee’s signature to any document reasonably necessary or appropriate for any
of the foregoing purposes including, but not limited to, renewals, extensions, continuations, divisions or continuations in part, in a timely manner, Employee irrevocably designates and appoints Employer and its duly authorized officers and agents
as his agents and attorneys-in-fact to act for Employee and on his behalf, but only for purposes of executing and filing any such document and doing all other lawfully permitted acts to accomplish the foregoing purposes with the same legal force and
effect as if executed by Employee.

 D. Pre-employment Inventions. Employee shall completely identify on Exhibit B
attached hereto, without disclosing any trade secret or other proprietary and confidential information, all Inventions and Developments made by Employee prior to his employment with Employer or prior to execution of this Agreement in which Employee

 E. Disclosure of Inventions after Termination. Employee shall promptly and completely disclose in writing to Employer’s law department all Company-Related Inventions and Developments made by
Employee during the one (1) year immediately following Employee’s termination of employment, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, for the purposes of determining Employer’s rights in each such invention. It will be presumed that
Company-Related Inventions and Developments conceived by Employee which are reduced to practice within one (1) year after termination of Employee’s employment, whether voluntary or involuntary, were conceived during the term of
Employee’s employment with Employer unless Employee is able to establish a later conception date by clear and convincing evidence.

without the written consent of Employer, except as may be necessary in the ordinary course of performing his duties to Employer. 

  
 -12-









 2. Return of Proprietary and Confidential Information. All documents and tangible
things (whether written or electronic) embodying or containing Proprietary and Confidential Information are the Employer Group’s exclusive property. Employee shall be provided with or given access to such Proprietary and Confidential
Information solely for performing his duties of employment with Employer. Employee shall protect the confidentiality of their content and shall return all such Proprietary and Confidential Information, including all copies, facsimiles and specimens
of them in any tangible or electronic forms in Employee’s possession, custody or control to Employer before leaving the employment of Employer for any reason, whether voluntary or involuntary. 

3. Confidential Information from Previous Employment. Employee shall not disclose or use during his employment with Employer any
proprietary and confidential information which Employee has acquired as a result of any previous employment or under a contractual obligation of confidentiality before his employment with Employer and, furthermore, Employee shall not bring to the
premises of Employer any copies or other tangible embodiments of any such proprietary and confidential information. 
 4.
Conflict of Interest. Employee shall not engage in outside employment or other activities in the course of which Employee would use or might be tempted or induced to use Proprietary and Confidential Information in other than the Employer
Group’s own interest. 
 5. Agreement Not to Compete/Solicit. 

a. Non-Compete. Employee agrees that during the Covenant Period (as defined below), he shall not, without Employer’s written
consent, directly or indirectly, for himself or on behalf of or in conjunction with any other person, persons, company, partnership, corporation or business venture of any nature: 

(i) engage, as an officer, director, shareholder, owner, partner, joint venturer or in a managerial capacity, whether as an employee,
independent contractor, consultant, advisor or sales representative, in any business or industry in which the Employer Group is engaged, within the United States, Canada or any other country in which the Employer Group conducts business, including
any territory serviced by the Employer Group, or in which the Employer Group is actively pursuing business opportunities (the “Territory”); 
 (ii) call upon any person or entity which is, at that time, or which has been, within one (1) year prior to that time, a customer of the Employer Group, or a prospective customer that has been
actively solicited by the Employer Group, within the Territory for the purpose of soliciting or selling products or services in competition with the Employer Group; or 
 (iii) call upon any prospective acquisition candidate, on Employee’s own behalf or on behalf of any competitor, which candidate was, to Employee’s actual knowledge after due inquiry, either
called upon by the Employer Group or for which the Employer Group made an acquisition analysis for the purpose of acquiring such entity. 
 b. Non-Solicitation. Employee agrees that during the Covenant Period, he shall not, without Employer’s written consent, employ, hire, solicit, induce or identify for employment or attempt to
employ, hire, solicit, induce or identify for employment, directly or indirectly, any employee(s) of the Employer Group to leave his or her employment and become an employee, consultant or representative of any other entity including, but not
limited to, Employee’s new employer, if any. 

  
 -13-









 c. Publicly Traded Securities. The provisions of Section VI.B.5 of this Agreement
shall not prevent Employee from acquiring or holding publicly traded stock or other public securities of a competing company, so long as Employee’s ownership does not exceed two percent (2%) of the outstanding securities of such company.

 d. Agreement to Inform Subsequent Employers. For a period of two (2) years after the termination of
Employee’s employment with Employer, whether voluntary or involuntary, Employee agrees to inform each new employer, prior to accepting employment, of the existence of this Agreement and provide that employer with a copy of this Agreement.

 e. Reasonableness of Restrictions. Employee acknowledges that the restrictions set forth in Section VI.B.5 of this
Agreement are intended to protect the Employer Group’s legitimate business interests and its Proprietary and Confidential Information and established relationships and good will. Employee acknowledges that the time, geographic and scope of
activity limitations set forth herein are reasonable and necessary to protect the Employer Group’s legitimate business interests. However, if in any judicial proceeding, a court shall refuse to enforce this Agreement as written, whether because
the time limitation is too long or because the restrictions contained herein are more extensive (whether as to geographic area, scope of activity or otherwise) than is necessary to protect the legitimate business interests of the Employer Group, it
is expressly understood and agreed between the parties hereto that this Agreement is deemed modified to the extent necessary to permit this Agreement to be enforced in any such proceedings. 

f. Ability to Obtain Other Employment. Employee acknowledges that (1) in the event of the termination of his employment with
Employer (whether voluntary or involuntary), Employee’s knowledge, experience and capabilities are such that Employee can obtain employment in business activities which are of a different and non-competing nature than those performed in the
course of his employment with Employer or in the geographic areas outside of the Territory and (2) the enforcement of a remedy hereunder including, but not limited to, injunctive relief, will not prevent Employee from earning a reasonable
livelihood. 
 g. Injunctive Relief. Employee acknowledges that compliance with Section VI.B of this Agreement is
necessary to protect the good will and other legitimate business interests of the Employer Group and that a breach of any or all of these provisions will give rise to irreparable and continuing injury to the Employer Group that is not adequately
compensable in monetary damages or at law. Accordingly, Employee agrees that Employer, its successors and assigns, may obtain injunctive relief against the breach or threatened breach of any or all of these provisions, in addition to any other legal
or equitable remedies which may be available to the Employer Group at law or in equity or under this Agreement. Because Employee further acknowledges that it would be difficult to measure any damages caused to the Employer Group that might result
from any breach by Employee of any promises set forth in this Agreement, Employee agrees that Employer shall be entitled to an injunction or other appropriate equitable relief to restrain any such breach without showing or proving any actual damage
to the Employer Group, as well as to be relieved of any obligation to provide further payment or benefits to Employee or Employee’s dependents. 

  
 -14-









 h. Other Remedies. If Employee violates and/or breaches this Agreement, Employer
shall be entitled to an accounting and repayment of all lost profits, compensation, commissions, remuneration or benefits that Employee directly or indirectly has realized or may realize as a result of any such violation or breach. Employer shall
also be entitled to recover for all lost sales, profits, commissions, good will and customers caused by Employee’s improper acts, in addition to and not in limitation of any injunctive relief or other rights or remedies that Employer is or may
be entitled to at law or in equity or under this Agreement. 
 i. Costs. Employee acknowledges that should it become
necessary for Employer to file suit to enforce the provisions contained herein, and any court of competent jurisdiction awards the Employer Group any damages and/or an injunction due to the acts of Employee, then Employer shall be entitled to
recover its reasonable costs incurred in conducting the suit including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses. 
 j. Covenant Period. For purposes of this Section VI.B.5, the Covenant Period shall mean the period from and during the Term of this Agreement and ending on the date that is two (2) years after
Employee’s employment with Employer terminates, whether voluntary or involuntary; provided, however, that if Employer delivers to Employee a Renewal Termination Notice, as provided in Section III.B, and Employee remains employed with Employer
through the expiration of the Term (and this Agreement), then the Covenant Period shall end on the date that is one (1) year after the date of such Renewal Termination Notice. For purposes of clarity, in the event that Employee’s
employment with Employer terminates for any reason, whether voluntary or involuntary, after Employee receives a Renewal Termination Notice and before the end of the Term, the Covenant Period shall end on the date that is two (2) years after the
termination of Employee’s employment. 
 6. Nondisparagement. Employee acknowledges and agrees that both during and
after his employment with Employer, whether such termination is voluntary or involuntary, Employee shall not disparage, denigrate or comment negatively upon, either orally or in writing, the Employer Group or any of their respective officers,
directors, employees or representatives, to or in the presence of any person or entity unless compelled to act by a valid subpoena or other legal mandate; provided, however, if Employee receives such a valid subpoena or legal mandate, he shall
provide Employer with written notice of the same at least five (5) business days prior to the date on which Employee is required to make the disclosure. 
 VII. WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL 
 EMPLOYER AND EMPLOYEE HEREBY VOLUNTARILY,
KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY TO ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, AS WELL AS TO ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF EMPLOYEE’S EMPLOYMENT WITH EMPLOYER OR TERMINATION THEREFROM INCLUDING,
BUT NOT LIMITED TO:

including, without limitation, breach of contract, fraud, estoppel, misrepresentation, express or implied duties of good faith and fair dealing, wrongful discharge, discrimination, retaliation, harassment, negligence, gross negligence, false
imprisonment, assault and battery, conspiracy, intentional or negligent infliction of emotional distress, slander, libel, defamation and invasion of privacy; 
 B. Any and all claims and causes of action arising under any federal, state or local law, regulation or ordinance, including, without limitation, claims arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of

health or welfare benefits, bonus compensation, commissions, deferred compensation or other remuneration, employment benefits or compensation, past or future loss of pay or benefits or expenses. 

VIII. CLAIMS 
 Employer and Employee acknowledge and agree that this Agreement shall be interpreted, governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to the conflict of laws
principles or rules thereof. 
 Employer and Employee irrevocably and unconditionally agree that any legal suit, action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, as well as to all claims arising out of Employee’s employment with Employer or termination therefrom, shall be brought in either the Federal District Court for the Southern District of
Texas—Houston Division or in a judicial district court of Harris County, Texas (hereinafter referred to as the “Texas Courts”). In that regard, Employer and Employee waive, to the fullest extent allowed, any objection that
Employer or Employee may have to the venue of any such proceeding being brought in the Texas Courts, and any claim that any such action or proceeding brought in the Texas Courts has been brought in an inconvenient forum. In addition, Employer and
Employee irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Texas Courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. Employer and Employee acknowledge and agree that a judgment in any suit, action or proceeding brought in the
Texas Courts shall be conclusive and binding on each and may be enforced in any other courts to whose jurisdiction Employer or Employee is or may be subject to, by suit upon such judgment. 

In the event Employee obtains a final judgment in his favor by a court of competent jurisdiction with respect to any dispute regarding
Employer’s failure to pay Employee on a timely basis the amounts to which he is entitled under this Agreement or as a result of any other breach of this Agreement by Employer, Employer shall pay all amounts and damages to which Employee may be
entitled as a result of such breach, including interest thereon and all reasonable legal fees and expense and other costs incurred by Employee to enforce Employee’s rights hereunder.

 EXHIBIT A 
 SEVERANCE AGREEMENT 
 AND RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS 

This Severance Agreement and Release of All Claims (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into by and between Gerard Sonnier
(hereinafter referred to as the “Employee”) and Quanta Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation, (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Company”). 
 The purpose of this Agreement is to arrange a settlement of the Employee’s employment with the Company that is satisfactory both to the Company and to the Employee. By signing this Agreement, the
Company and the Employee agree as follows: 
  

	1.	Termination of Employment. The Employee and the Company are entering into this Agreement as a way of amicably concluding the employment relationship
between them on [Date] and of resolving voluntarily any dispute or potential dispute or claim that the Employee has or might have with the Company, whether known or unknown by the Employee at this time. This Agreement is not and should not be
construed as an allegation by Employee, or as an admission on the part of the Company, that the Company has acted unlawfully or violated any state or federal law or regulation. The Company, including its parent companies, affiliates, associated
companies, and subsidiaries, specifically disclaim any liability to the Employee or any other person for any alleged violation of rights or for any alleged violation of any order, law, statute, duty, policy or contract. 


 

	2.	Severance Benefits. As consideration for the Employee agreeing to release the Company from all claims that are described in Paragraph 6 herein and subject
to the provisions of Paragraph 10 herein, the Company will pay the Employee $[Severance Amount] (            Dollars and
            Cents), less applicable taxes as severance benefits (the “Severance Benefits”). 


 

	3.	Tax Consequences. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company has made no representations to him regarding the tax consequences of any Severance
Benefits received by him pursuant to this Agreement. 

  

	4.	Entire Consideration. The Employee agrees that the Severance Benefits set forth in Paragraph 2, herein, constitute the entire amount of consideration
provided to him under this Agreement. The Employee further agrees that he will make no claim for any additional or other severance benefits or payments and that he will not seek any further compensation for any other claimed damage, costs,
severance, income or attorneys’ fees. 


  
 -21-










	5.	Non-Disclosure Agreement. Without the express written agreement of the Company’s [Highest Officer] or unless required to do so by law, the Employee
agrees never to disclose the existence, facts, terms, or amount of this Agreement, nor the substance of the negotiations leading to this Agreement, to any person or entity, other than to his personal counsel or attorney, personal accountants, or
personal tax preparer, any such disclosure to such persons to be made only if the relevant person must have such information for the performance of his or her responsibilities. To the extent required by law or applicable regulation, Employee may
also disclose the provisions of this Agreement to the appropriate taxing authorities. 

  

	6.	The Employee’s Release Of All Claims Including Age Discrimination In Employment Act Claims. In consideration of the Severance Benefits, the Employee,
for himself, his heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, does fully and forever release and discharge the Company, its parent companies, affiliates, associated companies, and subsidiaries, their respective associated companies and
subsidiaries, all of their respective present and former officers, directors, supervisors, managers, employees, stockholders, agents, attorneys and representatives, and the successors and assigns of such persons and entities (collectively, the
“Released Parties”), from all actions, lawsuits, grievances, complaints, liens, demands, obligations, damages, liabilities and claims of any nature whatsoever, know or unknown, that the Employee had, now has, or may hereafter claim to have
against the Released Parties from the beginning of time through the date the Employee executes this Agreement. The release provided herein specifically includes, but is not limited to, all claims arising under any federal, state or local fair
employment practice laws, and any other employee relations statute, executive order, law and ordinance, including, but not limited to, Title VII of the Civil Rights Acts of 1964, as amended; the Civil Rights Acts of 1866, 1870, and 1871, as amended;
the Civil Rights Act of 1991, as amended; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended; the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, as amended; the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended; the Family and Medical Leave Act,
as amended; the Equal Pay Act, as amended; the Fair Labor Standards Act, as amended; the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988, as amended; the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended; Section 806 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (18 U.S.C. §1514A, et seq.); the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 U.S.C. Section 791 et seq.); the Occupational Safety and Health Act (29 U.S.C. § 651, et seq.); the Consolidated Omnibus
Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (COBRA); the National Labor Relations Act, as amended; the [Applicable State Laws], as amended; any local human rights law; and any tort or contract cause of action or theory. 


The Employee expressly represents and agrees that he has been advised that, by entering into this Agreement, he is waiving all claims that
he may have against the Company arising under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, which have arisen on or before the date of execution of this Agreement. 

  
 -22-










	7.	Covenants Concerning Claims. The Employee agrees that he will not file any complaints, claims or actions against the Released Parties with any court
regarding any matters or claims that arose prior to the Employee’s execution of this Agreement. If any court assumes jurisdiction on behalf of the Employee of any complaint, claim or action against the Company, he will direct that court to
withdraw from or dismiss with prejudice the matter. 

 Notwithstanding the preceding provision or any other
provision of the Agreement, Employee’s agreement to the provisions under Section 6, or the paragraph immediately above this paragraph, is not intended to prohibit Employee from bringing an action to challenge the validity of the release of
claims under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended, or the Older Worker’s Benefit Protection Act, as amended. The Employee further understands and agrees that if he or someone acting on his behalf files, or causes to be filed,
any such claim, charge, complaint, or action against the Released Parties, he expressly waives any right to recover any damages or other relief, whatsoever, from the Released Parties including costs and attorneys’ fees. 

This Agreement is not intended to interfere with Employee’s right to file a charge with an administrative agency in connection with
any claim Employee believes he may have against any of the Released Parties. However, by executing this Agreement, Employee hereby waives the right to recover, and agrees not to seek any damages, remedies or other relief for himself personally in
any proceeding he may bring before such agency or in any proceeding brought by such agency, or any other person, on his behalf. This Agreement is also not intended to apply to claims for accrued benefits (other than severance-type benefits) under
any benefit plan of the Released Parties pursuant to the terms of any such plan. 
 Employee understands that he is not releasing
rights under this Agreement, that any claims that cannot be lawfully waived are excluded from this Agreement and that by executing this Agreement he is not waiving any such claims. Likewise, Employee is not releasing any rights or claims that may
arise after the date on which he signs this Agreement. In addition, while this Agreement requires Employee to waive any and all claims against the Released Parties arising under workers’ compensation laws (e.g., claims of retaliation for filing
a workers’ compensation claim), it is not intended to prohibit Employee from filing in good faith for and from receiving any workers’ compensation benefits from Released Parties’ workers’ compensation carrier for compensable
injuries incurred during his employment. Accordingly, pursuit of any such workers’ compensation benefits with Released Parties’ workers’ compensation carrier or third-party administrator will not be considered a violation of this
Agreement. 
  

	8.	Employee Acknowledgments. Employee acknowledges and agrees that: 


 

	 	a.	In return for and in consideration of his execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Company is providing to the Employee the Severance Benefits.


  

	 	b.	The Employee is hereby advised in writing by this Agreement to consult with an attorney before signing this Agreement.

required to make an election concerning the Severance Benefits. If the Employee signs this Agreement prior to the end of the 21-day period, he certifies and agrees that the decision to accept such shortening of time is knowing and voluntary and is
not induced by the Company through: (i) fraud, misrepresentation, or a threat to withdraw or alter the offer prior to the end of the 21-day period; or (ii) an offer to provide different terms in exchange for signing the Release prior to
the expiration of the 21-day period. Should the Employee sign this Agreement before the expiration of the 21-day period, the Company may at its option and discretion expedite the processing of some or all of the Severance Benefits, subject to the
revocation period set forth in Paragraph 10. 

  

	10.	Seven (7) Day Revocation Period. The Employee understands that he may revoke this Agreement at any time within seven (7) days after he executes
it. To revoke the Agreement, the Employee must deliver written notification of such revocation to             , or

of the Employee’s execution of this Agreement. The Employee further understands that if he does not revoke the Agreement within seven (7) days following its execution (excluding the date of execution), it will become effective, binding,
and enforceable. The Employee understands that he will not receive the Severance Benefits until this Agreement becomes effective, binding, and enforceable, which shall not occur prior to the eighth day following the Employee’s execution of this
Agreement.

administrative or otherwise; and 

  

	 	g.	as of the time of execution of this Agreement by Employee, Employee is unaware of any facts or conduct that would give rise to a claim against the Released Parties of
any type or sort, including those types of claims or other violations set forth generally and specifically above, including but not limited to, any claims under the Family Medical Leave Act of 1993 or the Fair Labor Standards Act.


  

	12.	Return of Company Property and Confidentiality Obligations. The Employee agrees that on or before [Date], the Employee shall return or shall have returned

similar data pertaining to the business, activities or future plans of Company that was collected by the Employee during his employment with the Company. For purposes of this Paragraph 12 and Paragraph 13, “Company” shall include

 The Employee further acknowledges and
agrees that the Employee is obligated to not, at any time, disclose or otherwise make available to any person, company or other party Confidential Information or trade secrets of the Company, its parent, associated companies, affiliates, and
