RECITALS




 




                A.            Employer

and Employee have previously entered into an Employment Agreement dated August

TERMS AND CONDITIONS




 




                NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:




 




                1.             Employment:   The Employer hereby employs the Employee,

and the Employee hereby accepts employment upon the terms and conditions

hereinafter set forth.




 




                2.             Term.   The term of the Agreement shall terminate

January 1, 2004.




 




                3.             Compensation.   For all services rendered by the Employee

under this Agreement, the Employee shall accept an annual base compensation for

each fiscal year, payable in accordance with Employer's salary payment

policies, at an annual rate of $209,880.00 for the period from the date hereof

through December 31, 1994, such amount to be increased as of January 1, 1995,

and annually thereafter by a percentage amount equal to the average of (i) any

percentage increases in the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers, Los Angeles-Long

Beach-Anaheim during the preceding year and (ii) any percentage increase in

base compensation as a result of Employee's performance during the preceeding

year, if any, as determined in the sole discretion of the President of Henry

and the Board of Directors. All reviews of Employee's performance shall be held

at least annually within 10 days of January 1 of each year, commencing January,

1995.




 




                                In addition, the Employee shall be paid bonus

compensation in the amount equal to 2-1/2% of net operating profits of the

Division, up to a maximum of $100,000 per annum, calculated in accordance with

generally accepted accounting principles (and as calculated in accordance with

the 1988 Agreement) before any reduction for federal corporate income




 




 




 




 





























taxes and state income taxes, non-cash reserves and

depreciation/amortization of plant and equipment and expenses and expenses

attributable to other divisions of the Employer. Net operating profits shall

include any product rebates attributable to this Division. The 2-1/2% of net

operating profits of the Division as defined above shall be paid annually after

a determination of said amount at the end of each fiscal year. This bonus

amount shall be paid within 30 days after the close of the fiscal year.




 




                                The Employee shall also be paid an additional

annual bonus based on Return on Capital Employed ("ROCE") during the

preceding fiscal year, as calculated in accordance with Exhibit A, up to a

maximum of 15% of Employee's base compensation for such year. The parameters of

such bonus shall be subject to change annually in the sole discretion of the

President of Henry and the Board of Directors. This bonus amount, if any, shall

be paid during the first thirty days after the close of the fiscal year.




 




                                Additionally, Employer shall provide,

entirely at Employer's expense, a comprehensive medical, dental, and mental

health care benefit program under the Henry Group of Companies medical benefits

plan on a basis consistent with the terms, conditions and overall administration

of such plan as made generally available to other employees of Employer;

provided, however, that if Employee elects dependent or family coverage,

Employee shall pay no more than $80 per month toward such coverage.




 




                4.             Duties.   The Employee is engaged as President of the

Division, to be directly responsible for all activities of the Division.




 




                5.             Extent

of Services.   The Employee shall

devote his best efforts, attention, and energies to the business of the

Employer, and shall not, during the term of this Agreement, be engaged in any

other similar business activity. This shall not be construed as preventing

Employee from investing his assets, except to the extent that such interests

detract from the performance of all of Employee's duties; provided, however,

that in no event shall Employee directly or indirectly own, manage, operate,

control, be employed by, participate in, or be connected in any manner with the

ownership, management, operation, or control of any business similar to the

type of business conducted by the Employer or its affiliates, at any time

during the term of this Agreement.




 




                6.             Disclosure

of Information.   Employee

recognizes and acknowledges that a list of the Employer's customers or clients,

as it may exist from time to time, and the names of customers' employers and

addresses thereof are valuable, special, and unique assets of the Employer's

business. Employee will not, during the term of his employment or at any time

thereafter, disclose or in any way whatsoever use the Employer's customers,




 




2





























or any part thereof, for nay separate business, interest, or personal

gain; or disclose any or all of the said customers' and candidates' names and

addresses, or either of them to any person, firm, corporation, association, or

other entity whatsoever, for any reason or purpose.




 




                                In the event of a breach, or threatened

breach, of the provisions of this paragraph by the Employee, the Employer shall

be entitled to an injunction restraining the Employee from disclosing, in whole

or in part, the list of the Employer's customers, and any or all of the

clients' names and/or either of them, or from rendering any services to any

such person, client, firm,   ,

association, or other entity to whom such information, in whole or in part, has

been disclosed or threatened to be disclosed. Nothing herein contained shall be

construed as prohibiting the Employer from pursuing any other remedies

available to the Employer for such breach or threatened breach, including the

recovery of damages from the Employee.




 




                7.             Expenses.   The Employee is authorized to incur

reasonable expenses for promoting the business of the Employer including

expenses for entertainment, travel, and similar items. The Employer will

reimburse the Employee for all such expenses upon the presentation by the

Employee, from time to time, of an itemized account of such expenditures.




 




                                The parties hereto ackowledge that an

automobile is required by the Employee for the ordinary discharge of his duties

pursuant to this Agreement. For this purpose the Employer shall provide an

automobile for the use by the Employee of a quality commesurate with the office

and state of the Employee to be used only within the course and scope of the

Employer's business and pursuant to the discharge of the duties of this

Agreement, and in addition to pay any expenses associated with the driving,

ownership and maintenance of said vehicle within said course and scope. The

Employer may at its direction discharge its obligation with regard to the

provision of an automobile and associated expenses pursuant to this paragraph

by the payment on a monthly basis of an automobile reimbursement expense

allowance, the amount of which is to be negotiated form time to time between

the Employee and the Board of Directors of the Employer.




 




                8.             Vacations.   The Employee shall be entitled each year to

a vacation of not less than two weeks after one year of service, three weeks

after five years of service, four weeks after ten years of service, and five

weeks after twenty years of service, during which time his compensation shall

be paid in full. For purposes of this paragraph, the Employee's years of

service shall include all such years from and after April 1, 1982.




 




                9.             Disability.   If the Employee is unable to perform his

services by reason of illness or incapacity for a period of more than six

months, the compensation otherwise payable to him




 




3





























during the continued period of such illness or incapacity after such

six months shall be reduced by 25%; provided, however, that the aforementioned

2-1/2% of net operating profits shall continue to be paid to the Employee and

shall not be reduced as a result of said illness or incapacity for a period of

one year (including said six months). In the event the Employee is unable to

return to work after one year of illness, his compensation shall stay in force

at 75% of his established compensation level for a period of one (1) additional

year, after which no further compensation shall be payable to Employee

hereunder. The 2-1/2% compensation for net operating profits shall be

discontinued following the first year of disability. The Employee's full

compensation shall be reinstated upon his return to employment and the

discharge of his full duties hereunder.




 




                10.           Termination.   The Employer may terminate this agreement

at any time by written notice to the Employee. In such event, and unless the

Employee is terminated for cause, the Employee shall be paid on the date of

termination a severance amount equal to the basic compensation due for the remaining

term hereof at the full base compensation rate set forth in Paragraph 3 above,

excluding the 2-1/2% of net operating profits. The Employee may terminate this

Agreement upon ninety (90) days written notice to the Employer. In such event,

the Employee shall continue to render his services and shall be paid his

regular compensation up to the date of termination, but no severance allowance

shall be due or paid to him.




 




                11.           Death

During Employment.   If the Employee

dies during the term of this employment, the Employer shall pay to the estate

of the Employee the compensation which would otherwise be payable to the

Employee up to the date of death, including a pro rata portion of the

aforementioned 2-1/2% of net operating profits for that part of the Employer's

fiscal year prior to the date of Employee's death. In addition, the Employer

shall pay a sum equivalent to one year of full pay as a lump sum death benefit

within thirty (30) days after the death of the Employee, to the widow of the

Employee or, if Employee is not then survived by such widow, to the Employee's

estate; provided, however, that if a life insurance policy is in force with

respect to the life of Employee at the time of death, such lump sum payment

shall be paid and funded from the proceeds of such policy, but in no event

shall such sum be an amount less than one year of full pay. No provision herein

shall replace or supplement any other executive life insurance benefit plan to

which Employee is entitled by virtue of his executive employment status. 




 




                12.           Restrictive

Covenant.   If the Employee's

employment with the Employer is terminated for any reason, then for a period of

two years after said event, the Employee will not, within a radius of 500 miles

from any then existing place of business of the Employer or any of its

affiliates, directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, control, be employed

by, participate in, or be connected in any manner with the ownership,

management, operating, or control of any business similar to the 




 




4





























type of business conducted by the Employer or any of its

affiliates, at the time of termination. In the event of an actual or threatened

breach by the Employee of the provisions of this paragraph, the Employer shall

be entitled to an injunction restraining the Employee from owning, managing,

operating, controlling, being employed by, participating in, or being in any

way so connected with any business similar to the type of business conducted by

the Employer or any of its affiliates, at the time of termination of this

Agreement. Nothing herein stated shall be construed as prohibiting the Employer

from pursuing any other remedies available to the Employer for such breach or

threatened breach, including the recovery of damages from the Employee.




 




                13.           Life

Insurance.   The Employer may in its

discretion at any time after the execution of this Agreement apply for and

procure as owner and for its own benefit insurance on the life of the Employee,

in such amounts and in such form or forms as the Employer may choose. The

Employee shall have no interest whatsoever in any such policy or policies, but

he shall, at the request of the Employer, submit to such medical examinations,

supply such information, and execute such documents as may be required by the

insurance company or companies to whom the Employer has applied for such

insurance. Upon termination of this Agreement, insurance policies on the life

of the Employee shall be transferred to the Employee and premiums paid to the

date of transfer shall be borne by the Employer. Premiums to maintain the

insurance upon termination shall be borne by the Employee immediately upon the

date of termination.




 




                14.           Notices.   Any notice required or permitted to be

given under this Agreement shall be sufficient, if in writing and if sent by

registered mail to his residence, in the case of the Employee, or to its

principal office at 2911 Slauson Avenue, Huntington Park, California 90255, in

the case of the Employer.




 




                15.           Waiver

of Breach, Costs.   The waiver by

any party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by the other shall not

operate or be construed as waiver of any subsequent breach by the other. In the

event of any legal action arising out of any breach of any provision of this

Agreement, the breaching party shall pay all reasonable costs of such action,

including attorney fees, which are attributable to such breach or the

enforcement of this Agreement.




 




                16.           Assignment.   The rights and obligations of the Employer

under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be binding upon,

the successors and assigns of Employer. 




 




                17.           Holidays.   Employee shall be entitled to time off work

with pay for eleven holidays each year. Any additional days off during the

year, leaves of absence, etc., shall be in accordance with the Employer's

policy.




 




5





























                18.           Entire Agreement.   This Agreement contains the entire

agreement of the parties. It may not be changed orally, but only by an

agreement in writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement of any

waiver, change, modification, or extension of discharge is sought.




 




                19.           Severability.   If any portion, phrase, or any other party

or portion whatsoever of this Agreement shall be declared or held illegal,

void, voidable, or unenforceable, the remaining portions of this Agreement

shall continue to be valid and remain in full force and effect.




 




                NOW, IN

WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed and entered into this Agreement on
