Year). Notwithstanding any contrary provision contained herein, in the event of any termination of Executive’s employment, the exclusive remedies available to the Executive shall be the amounts due under this SECTION 3, which are in the nature
of liquidated damages, and are not in the nature of a penalty.

 3.4 Severance Benefits. 

(a) Termination without Cause or for Good Reason. Subject to the terms and conditions of eligibility for Executive’s receipt
of severance benefits under this Agreement, including the timely execution and delivery (and non-revocation) by Executive of the Separation Agreement and General Release as set forth in SECTION 6.11, the Company shall pay to Executive, as
severance benefits: 
 (i) An amount equal to the product of (a) the applicable Severance Multiple (as
defined below) and (b) the sum of (x) the highest annual Base Salary rate for Executive in effect over the prior two (2) years and (y) the highest amount of Executive’s Target Bonus or Annual Cash Bonus actually paid over
the prior two (2) years, whichever is greater, which total payment shall be paid to Executive on a salary continuation basis according to the Company’s normal payroll practices over the 18 month period following the date the Executive
incurs a Separation from Service, but in no event less frequently than monthly. As used herein, the “Severance Multiple” shall be 2.5 if the termination without Cause or resignation for Good Reason occurs within ninety
(90) days preceding or twelve (12) months following a “Change in Control” (as defined below) and 1.5 in the case of any other termination without Cause or resignation for Good Reason. 

(ii) Subject to (1) the Executive’s timely election of continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus
Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), and (2) the Executive’s continued copayment of premiums at the same level and cost to the Executive as if the Executive were an employee of the Company (excluding,
for purposes of calculating cost, an employee’s ability to pay premiums with pre-tax dollars), continued participation in the Company’s group health plan (to the extent permitted under applicable law and the terms of such plan) which
covers the Executive (and the Executive’s eligible dependents) for a period of 18 months at the Company’s expense, provided that the Executive is eligible and remains eligible for COBRA coverage. The Company may modify its obligation under
this SECTION 3.4(a)(ii) to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid any penalty or excise taxes imposed on it in connection with the continued payment of premiums by the Company under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, as
amended. 
 (iii) In addition to the benefits described in Section 3.4(a)(i) and (ii), in the event that
such termination occurs within ninety (90) days preceding or twelve (12) months following a “Change in Control” (as defined below), the Company shall accelerate the vesting of the Executive’s then-outstanding and unvested
stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units or shares, performance stock units or any other Company equity compensation awards, to the extent that such awards would have vested solely upon the Executive’s continued
employment, such that one hundred percent (100%) of such awards become vested in full. 
 (b) Termination for
Executive’s Death or Disability. In the event of Executive’s death or Disability, the Company shall accelerate the vesting of the Executive’s then-outstanding and unvested stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock
units or shares, performance stock units or any other Company equity compensation awards, to the extent that such awards would have vested solely upon the Executive’s continued employment, such that one hundred percent (100%) of such
awards become vested in full. 

  
 6 







 (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any severance benefits that would
otherwise have been paid before the Company’s first normal payroll payment date falling on or after the thirtieth (30th) day after the date on which the Executive incurs a Separation from Service (the “First Payment Date”)
shall be made on the First Payment Date. Each separate severance installment payment and each other payment that Executive may be eligible to receive under this Agreement shall be a separate payment under this Agreement for all purposes. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, with respect to any severance benefits or amounts payable to the
Executive under this Agreement, in no event shall a termination of employment occur under this Agreement unless such termination constitutes a Separation from Service. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Separation from Service” shall mean
the Executive’s “separation from service” with the Company as such term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h) and any successor provision thereto. 

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, amounts payable to the
Executive pursuant to this SECTION 3.4 shall be made in reliance upon Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(b)(9) (Separation Pay Plans) or Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) (Short-Term Deferrals). However, to the extent any such payments
are treated as non-qualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), then if Executive is deemed at the time of his Separation from Service to be a “specified
employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of the benefits to which the Executive is entitled under this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited
distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such portion of the Executive’s termination benefits shall not be provided to the Executive prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the
date of the Executive’s Separation from Service or (ii) the date of Executive’s death. Upon the earlier of such dates, all payments deferred pursuant to this SECTION 3.4(e) shall be paid in a lump sum to the Executive.
Thereafter, payments will resume in accordance with this Agreement. The determination of whether the Executive is a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code as of the time of his Separation from
Service shall be made by the Company in accordance with the terms of Section 409A of the Code and applicable guidance thereunder (including without limitation Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(i) and any successor provision thereto).

 (f) The Executive shall have no duty or obligation to mitigate the amounts due under SECTION 3.4(a) above and any
amounts earned by Executive from other employment shall not be offset or reduce the amounts due hereunder. 
 (g) The term
“Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the Board approves a plan of liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, (ii) the consummation of a sale or other disposition of
all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, (iii) any “person,” as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (other than the Company, any trustee
or other fiduciary holding securities under any employee benefit plan of the Company, Gores Building Holdings, LLC. or its affiliates, or any company owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same
proportions as their ownership of 

  
 7 







 
Common Stock of the Company), becoming the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than 50% of
the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities or otherwise acquiring the power to elect or designate a majority of the members of the Board, (iv) a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation
or entity (a “Merger Partner”), as a result of which (A) the voting securities of the Merger Partner outstanding immediately prior thereto represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities
of a surviving entity) more than 50% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, or (B) the shareholders of the Merger Partner
immediately prior thereto have the power to elect or designate a majority of the members of the Board of the Company or such surviving entity; provided, however, that a merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of the Company
(or similar transaction) in which no person (other than those covered by the exceptions in clause (iii) above) acquires more than 50% of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities or the power to elect or
designate a majority of the members of the Board shall not constitute a Change in Control of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt Gores Building Holdings, LLC or any of its affiliates reducing its equity holdings in the Company, directly or
indirectly, shall not, in and of itself, constitute a Change in Control hereunder, unless such reduction in equity holdings is part of a transaction that constitutes a Change in Control pursuant to clauses (iii) or (iv) of this definition.

acknowledges that the Company owns and shall own and has developed and shall develop proprietary information concerning its business and its customers and clients (“Proprietary Information”). Such Proprietary Information includes,
among other things, trade secrets, financial information, product plans, customer lists, marketing plans, systems, manuals, training materials, forecasts, inventions, improvements, know-how and other intellectual property, in each case, relating to

others, during and related to Executive’s employment and the Company’s business or while using the Company’s equipment, supplies, facilities or trade secret information (collectively, “Inventions”). All Inventions,
and other intellectual property rights shall be the sole property of the Company and shall be “works made for hire.” Executive hereby assigns to the Company any rights Executive may have or acquire in all Inventions and agrees to perform,

the Company. 
 As used herein, “Listed Company” means one of nine (9) companies that are material competitors as
identified by the Company, provided that the Company may at any time change such nine (9) companies to alternative competitors so long as the number does not exceed nine (9), no change can be effective after the termination of Executive’s
employment with the Company and any change shall be effective thirty (30) days after Executive is given written notice thereof and only if at the end of such thirty (30) day period the Executive is employed by the Company. As of the
Effective Date, the Listed Companies are Pro Build Holdings, Inc., 84 Lumber Co., Builders FirstSource, Inc., BMC Select, HD Supply, Inc., Ganahl Lumber Co., US LBM Holdings, LLC, Carter Lumber Company and McCoy Corporation (dba McCoy’s

received from, and the cash value of any benefits provided by, the Company between the first 

  
 10 








 
day of the violation and the date such notice is given; provided, however, that the foregoing shall be in addition to such other remedies as may be available to the Company and shall not be
deemed to permit Executive to forego or waive such payments in order to avoid his or her obligations under this SECTION 5; and provided, further, that any release of claims by Executive pursuant to SECTION 6.11 shall continue in
effect. 
 5.4 Survival; Injunctive Relief. Executive agrees that the provisions of this SECTION 5 shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the termination of the Executive’s employment. Executive acknowledges that a breach by him of the covenants contained in this SECTION 5 cannot be reasonably or adequately compensated in
damages in an action at law and that such breach will cause the Company immeasurable and irreparable injury and damage. Executive further acknowledges that he possesses unique skills, knowledge and ability and that competition in violation of this
SECTION 5 would be extremely detrimental to the Company. By reason thereof, each of the Company and Executive agrees that the other shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedies it may have under this Agreement, at law or in equity, or
otherwise, to temporary, preliminary and/or permanent injunctive and other equitable relief to prevent or curtail any actual or threatened violation of this SECTION 5, without proof of actual damages that have been or may be caused to the

 6.10 Release of Claims. In consideration for the compensation and other
benefits provided pursuant to this Agreement, Executive agrees to execute a “Separation Agreement and General Release” form substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. The
Company’s obligation to pay severance benefits pursuant to SECTION 3.4 is expressly conditioned on Executive’s execution and delivery of such Separation Agreement and General Release no later than forty-five (45) days after the
date the Executive incurs a Separation from Service without revoking it for a period of seven (7) days following delivery. Executive’s failure to execute and deliver such Separation Agreement and General Release within such forty-five
(45) day time period (or Executive’s subsequent revocation of such Separation Agreement and General Release) will void the Company’s obligation to pay severance benefits under this Agreement. 

6.11 Confidentiality Of Previous Employers’ Information. The Company acknowledges that the Executive may have had
access to confidential and proprietary information of his previous employer(s) and that Executive may be obligated to maintain the confidentiality of such information, not use such information or not to provide certain services to the Company, in
each case pursuant to applicable law and/or any contractual relationship between Executive and a previous employer. The Company hereby instructs Executive as follows: (1) Executive shall not disclose any such confidential or proprietary
information to the Company or any of its affiliates, (2) Executive shall not use any such confidential or proprietary information in connection with his employment with the Company, and (3) Executive shall not perform any services for the
benefit of the Company that would cause Executive to be in breach of his obligations owed to any previous employer or other third party. If the Company requests Executive to provide any such services or to disclose any such information, Executive
will advise the Company that he or she is prohibited from doing so. Executive agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Company and its affiliates harmless from and against any claims, losses or liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees)
incurred by the Company or any of its affiliates as a result of any breach by Executive of this SECTION 6.11. 
 6.12
In-kind Benefits and Reimbursements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in-kind benefits and reimbursements provided under this Agreement during any tax year of the Executive shall not affect in-kind benefits or
reimbursements to be provided in any other tax year of the Executive, except for the reimbursement of medical expenses referred to in Section 105(b) of the Code, and are not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, reimbursement requests must be timely submitted by Executive and, if timely submitted, reimbursement payments shall be made to the Executive as soon as administratively practicable
following such submission, but in no event later than December 31st of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred. In no event shall the Executive be entitled to any reimbursement payments after
December 31st of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred. This SECTION 6.12 shall only apply to in-kind benefits and reimbursements that would result in taxable compensation income to the
Executive. 
 6.13 Section 409A. This Agreement is intended to be written, administered, interpreted and construed
in a manner such that no payment or benefits provided under this Agreement become subject to (a) the gross income inclusion set forth within Code Section 409A(a)(1)(A) or (b) the interest and additional tax set forth within Code
Section 409A(a)(1)(B) 

  
 13 








 
(together, referred to herein as the “Section 409A Penalties”), including, where appropriate, the construction of defined terms to have meanings that would not cause the
imposition of Section 409A Penalties. In no event shall the Company be required to provide a tax gross-up payment to Executive or otherwise reimburse Executive with respect to Section 409A Penalties. In the event that following the date
hereof the Company reasonably determines that any compensation or benefits payable under this Agreement may be subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Company and the Executive shall work together to adopt such amendments to this Agreement or
adopt other policies or procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other commercially reasonable actions necessary or appropriate to (x) exempt the compensation and benefits payable under
this Agreement from Section 409A of the Code and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the compensation and benefits provided with respect to this Agreement or (y) comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and
related Department of Treasury guidance. 
 6.14 Indemnification, etc. The Company shall indemnify and hold
harmless Executive to the fullest extent permitted by law (including advance of legal fees) for any action or inaction he takes in good faith with regard to the Company or parent or any benefit plan of either. Further, the Company shall cover
Executive on its directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies to no less extent than that which covers any other officer or director of the Company.

 EXHIBIT A 

SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE 
 This Separation Agreement and General Release (this “Agreement”) is made as of             by and between JAMES F. MAJOR,

its affiliates is terminated effective as of             (the “Effective Date”). 
 2. Payments Due to Executive. Executive acknowledges receipt of $            from the Company, representing Executive’s

through the Effective Date. 
 3. Severance Benefits and Continuing Health Insurance Coverage. In
consideration of Executive’s execution and non-revocation of this Agreement, the Company agrees to pay to Executive the amounts provided in SECTION 3.4 of that certain Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated as of
            by and between the Executive and the Company. 

4. General Release. 
 (a) Executive, on behalf of Executive, his or her heirs, executors, personal representatives, administrators and assigns, irrevocably, knowingly and unconditionally releases, remises and discharges the
Company, its parents, all current or former affiliated or related companies of the Company and its parent, partnerships, or joint ventures, and, with respect to each of them, all of the Company’s or such related entities’ predecessors and
successors, and with respect to each such entity, its officers, directors, managers, Executives, equity holders, advisors and counsel (collectively, the “Company Parties”) from any and all actions, causes of action, charges,
complaints, claims, damages, demands, debts, lawsuits, rights, understandings and obligations of any kind, nature or description whatsoever, known or unknown (collectively, the “Claims”), arising out of or relating to the
Executive’s employment with the Company and/or the separation of Executive from the Company. 
 (b) This general release of
Claims by Executive includes, without limitation, (i) all Claims based upon actions or omissions (or alleged actions or omissions) that have occurred up to and including the date of this Agreement, regardless of ripeness or other limitation on
immediate pursuit of any Claim in the absence of this Agreement; (ii) all Claims relating to or arising out of Executive’s employment with and separation from the Company; (iii) all Claims (including Claims for discrimination,
harassment, and retaliation) arising under any federal, state or local statute, regulation, ordinance, or the common law, including without limitation, Claims 






 
arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans With Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended, the Family and Medical Leave Act and the
Executive Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Equal Pay Act, the Fair labor Standards Act, 42 U.S.C. § 1981, and any other federal or state law, local ordinance or common law including for wrongful
discharge, breach of implied or express contract, intentional or negligent infliction of emotional distress, defamation or other tort; and (iv) all Claims for reinstatement, attorney’s fees, interest, costs, wages or other compensation.

 (c) Executive agrees that there is a risk that each and every injury which he or she may have suffered by reason of his or
her employment relationship might not now be known, and there is a further risk that such injuries, whether known or unknown at the date of this Agreement, might become progressively worse, and that as a result thereof further damages may be
sustained by Executive; nevertheless, Executive desires to forever and fully release and discharge the Company Parties, and he or she fully understands that by the execution of this Agreement no further claims for any such injuries may ever be
asserted. 
 (d) This general release does not release any Claim that relates to: (i) Executive’s right to enforce
this Agreement; (ii) any rights Executive may have to indemnification from personal liability or to protection under any insurance policy maintained by the Company, including without limitation any general liability, EPLI, or directors and
officers insurance policy or any contractual indemnification agreement; (iii) Executive’s right, if any, to government-provided unemployment and worker’s compensation benefits; or (iv) Executive’s rights under any Company
Executive benefit plans (i.e. health, disability or retirement plans), which by their explicit terms survive the termination of Executive’s employment. 
 (e) Executive agrees that the consideration set forth in Paragraph 3 above shall constitute the entire consideration provided under this Agreement, and that Executive will not seek from the Company
Parties any further compensation or other consideration for any claimed obligation, entitlement, damage, cost or attorneys’ fees in connection with the matters encompassed by this Agreement. 

(f) Executive understands and agrees that if any facts with respect to this Agreement or Executive’s prior treatment by or
employment with the Company are found to be different from the facts now believed to be true, Executive expressly accepts, assumes the risk of, and agrees that this Agreement shall remain effective notwithstanding such differences. Executive agrees
that the various items of consideration set forth in this Agreement fully compensate for said risks, and that Executive will have no legal recourse against the Company in the event of discovery of a difference in facts. 

(g) Executive agrees to the release of all known and unknown claims, including expressly the waiver of any rights or claims arising out

 17 









	 	ii	Executive shall have a period of forty-five (45) days from the Termination Date (or from the date of receipt of this Agreement if received after the Termination
Date) in which to consider the terms of the Agreement (the “Review Period”). Executive may at his or her option execute this Agreement at any time during the Review Period. If the Executive does not return the signed Agreement to
the Company prior to the expiration of the 45 day period, then the offer of severance benefits set forth in this Agreement shall lapse and shall be withdrawn by the Company; 


 

	 	iii	Executive may revoke this Agreement at any time during the first seven (7) days following Executive’s execution of this Agreement, and this Agreement and
release shall not be effective or enforceable until the seven-day period has expired (“Revocation Period Expiration Date”). Notice of a revocation by the Executive must be made to the designated representative of the Company (as
described below) within the seven (7) day period after Executive signs this Agreement. If Executive revokes this Agreement, it shall not be effective or enforceable. Accordingly, the “Effective Date” of this Agreement shall be on the
eighth (8th) day after Executive signs the Agreement and returns it to the Company, and provided that Executive does not revoke the Agreement during the seven (7) day revocation period; 


In the event Executive elects to revoke this release pursuant to Paragraph 4(g)iii above, Executive shall notify Company by hand-delivery,
express courier or certified mail, return receipt requested, within seven (7) days after signing this Agreement to: ATTN: General Counsel, Legal Department, Stock Building Supply Holdings, Inc., 8020 Arco Corporate Drive, Suite 400, Raleigh,
North Carolina 27617. In the event that Executive exercises his or her right to revoke this release pursuant to Paragraph 4(g)iii above, any and all obligations of Company under this Agreement shall be null and void. Executive agrees
that by signing this Agreement prior to the expiration of the forty-five (45) day period he or she has voluntarily waived his or her right to consider this Agreement for the full forty-five (45) day period. 

EXECUTIVE AGREES THAT THE CONSIDERATION RECEIVED BY HIM OR HER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE PAYMENTS DESCRIBED ABOVE, IS IN FULL AND COMPLETE
SATISFACTION OF ANY CLAIMS THAT EXECUTIVE MAY HAVE, OR MAY HAVE HAD, ARISING OUT OF EXECUTIVE’S EMPLOYMENT WITH COMPANY (INCLUDING FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, ALL OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR AFFILIATES) OR THE TERMINATION OF THAT EMPLOYMENT, UP TO
THE DATE OF EXECUTION OF THIS AGREEMENT. EXECUTIVE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT HE OR SHE UNDERSTANDS THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, HE OR SHE NO LONGER HAS THE RIGHT TO ASSERT ANY CLAIM OR LAWSUIT OF ANY KIND ATTEMPTING TO RECOVER MONEY OR ANY OTHER

the date this Agreement is executed.

 5. Review of Agreement; No Assignment of Claims. Executive represents and
warrants that he or she (a) has carefully read and understands all of the provisions of this Agreement and has had the opportunity for it to be reviewed and explained by counsel to the extent Executive deems it necessary, (b) is
voluntarily entering into this Agreement, (c) has not relied upon any representation or statement made by the Company or any other person with regard to the subject matter or effect of this Agreement, (d) has not transferred or assigned
any Claims and (e) has not filed any complaint or charge against any of the Company Parties with any local, state, or federal agency or court. 
 6. No Claims. Each party represents that it has not filed any Claim against the other Party with any state, federal or local agency or court and that it will not file any Claim at any time
regarding the matters covered by this Agreement; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prohibit Executive from filing a Claim, including a challenge to the validity of this Agreement, with the Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission or participating in any investigation or proceeding conducted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission; provided, further, that Executive acknowledges that he will not be entitled to recover any monetary or other damages
in connection with or as a result of any such EEOC or state FEP agency proceeding. 
 7. Interpretation.
This Agreement shall take effect as an instrument under seal and shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina without regard to provisions or principles thereof relating to conflict of laws.

 8. Agreement as Defense. This Agreement may be pleaded as a full and complete defense to any subsequent
action or other proceeding arising out of, relating to, or having anything to do with any and all Claims, counterclaims, defenses or other matters capable of being alleged, which are specifically released and discharged by this Agreement. This
Agreement may also be used to abate any such action or proceeding and/or as a basis of a cross-complaint for damages. 

9. Nondisclosure of Agreement. The terms and conditions of this Agreement are confidential. Executive agrees not to
disclose the terms of this Agreement to anyone except immediate family members and Executive’s attorneys and financial advisers. Executive further agrees to inform these people that the Agreement is confidential and must not be disclosed to
anyone else. Executive may disclose the terms of this Agreement if compelled to do so by a court, but Executive agrees to notify the Company immediately if anyone seeks to compel Executive’s testimony in this regard, and to cooperate with the
Company if the Company decides to oppose such effort. Executive agrees that disclosure by Executive in violation of this Agreement would cause so much injury to the Company that money alone could not fully compensate the Company and that the Company
is entitled to injunctive and equitable relief. Executive also agrees that the Company would be entitled to recover money from Executive if this Agreement were violated. 

  
 19 








 10. Ongoing Covenants. Executive acknowledges that nothing in this Agreement
shall limit or otherwise impact Executive’s continuing obligations of confidentiality to the Company in accordance with Company policy and applicable law, or any applicable Company policies or agreements between the Company and Executive with
respect to non-competition or non-solicitation, and Executive covenants and agrees to abide by all such continuing obligations. 
 11. No Adverse Comments. For two (2) years, Executive and the Company agree not to make, issue, release or authorize any written or oral statements, derogatory or defamatory in nature,
about the other (which in the case of the Company shall include its affiliates or their respective products, services, directors, officers or Executives), provided that the foregoing shall not be violated by truthful testimony in response to legal
process, normal competitive statements, rebuttal of statements by the other or actions to enforce the party’s rights. 
 12. Integration; Severability. The terms and conditions of this Agreement constitute the entire agreement between Company and Executive and supercede all previous communications, either oral
or written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. No agreement or understanding varying or extending the terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon either party unless in writing signed by or on behalf of such
party. In the event that a court finds any portion of this Agreement unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, Company and Executive agree that the other provisions of the Agreement shall be deemed to be severable and will continue in full force and
effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.
