AMENDED AND RESTATED

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT




This AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), executed on December
29, 2008 and effective for all purposes as of May 22, 2008, is entered into by and between
CONSOLIDATED GRAPHICS, INC., a Texas corporation having its principal place of business in Houston,
Harris County, Texas (“CGX”), and JOE R. DAVIS (the “Executive”); other capitalized terms used in
this Agreement are defined and shall have the meanings set forth in Section 18 or elsewhere herein.



W I T N E S S E T H:




WHEREAS, Executive is employed as Chief Executive Officer of CGX;



WHEREAS, Executive and CGX are parties to that certain Employment Agreement, dated effective
May 22, 2008 (the “Prior Employment Agreement”), which was entered into to ensure Executive’s
continued employment with CGX and its subsidiaries;



WHEREAS, in connection with his employment, Executive has been and will continue to be
provided by CGX with specialized training and access to confidential information;



WHEREAS, it is the desire of the Board of Directors of CGX (the “Board”) and Executive to
amend and restate the Prior Employment Agreement solely to incorporate terms deemed necessary by
the parties to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the
regulations issued thereunder, and to make certain additional clarifications; and



WHEREAS, Executive is willing to enter into this Agreement with CGX on the terms herein
provided.



NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, representations and mutual covenants
hereinafter set forth, the parties hereby covenant and agree as follows:



1. Employment.  CGX hereby continues the employment of Executive, and Executive hereby accepts
such continued employment with CGX, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.



2. Employment Period.  The term of Executive’s employment pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement shall commence upon the Effective Date and shall continue until the fifth anniversary of
the Effective Date (the original five-year term, and any automatic extension thereof, hereby
referred to as the “Employment Period”). On the fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth
anniversaries of the Effective Date, the Employment Period shall be automatically extended for one
(1) additional year unless CGX provides, at least ninety (90) days in advance of the anniversary of
the Effective Date, written notice to Executive that the Employment Period will not be so extended.
Notwithstanding the above, the Employment Period will expire upon the tenth anniversary of the
Effective Date or upon Executive’s termination in accordance with Section 15 or Section 16 below.


 


 









 





3. Duties.  Executive shall (i) serve under the direction of the Board as Chief Executive
Officer of CGX, (ii) have all the rights, powers and duties associated with his positions and
(iii) faithfully, to the best of Executive’s ability, perform the duties and other reasonably
related services assigned to Executive by the Board from time to time (the “Duties”). Executive
shall be subject to, and shall comply with, CGX insider trading policies (a copy of which has been
delivered to Executive) and the other policies of CGX in effect from time to time (collectively,
the “CGX Policies”); provided, however, that to the extent such CGX Policies may contradict the
express provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern.  Executive
shall devote his full business time, efforts and attention to the business of CGX during the
Employment Period consistent with past practice and, without the prior written consent of the
Board, Executive shall not during the Employment Period render any services of a business,
commercial or professional nature to any person or organization other than CGX and the Affiliates
or be engaged in any other business activity, other than those activities described in Section 12
below.



4. Compensation.  During the Employment Period, Executive shall be compensated for Executive’s
services as follows:




(a) Executive shall be paid a base salary not less than the rate of base salary paid to
Executive immediately prior to the Effective Date. The base salary shall be subject to any
and all customary payroll deductions, including deductions for the Federal Insurance
Contributions Act and other federal, state and local taxes, and shall be reviewed by the
Board at least once per annum.




(b) Except to the extent such policies may contradict the express provisions of this
Agreement, in which case the provisions of this Agreement shall govern, Executive shall be
eligible to receive (i) fringe benefits on the same basis as other management employees of
CGX pursuant to CGX Policies in effect from time to time, including holiday time, and
(ii) such vacation time as Executive may determine in his discretion; provided, however,
that such vacation time shall not unreasonably interfere with the execution by Executive of
his Duties hereunder and Executive shall neither accumulate vacation time nor be entitled to
carryover into subsequent periods or be paid any compensation in addition to his stated
salary for any vacation time planned but not taken, regardless of the reason therefor; and
provided, further, that the Board in its sole discretion shall have the right at any time to
implement vacation guidelines applicable to the Executive not less than generally applicable
CGX policy then in effect.




(c) Executive shall be eligible to participate, to the extent that Executive meets all
eligibility requirements of general application, in and receive the Employee Benefits
provided by CGX in which employees and senior executives of CGX generally are eligible to
participate.



5. Bonus.  In addition to the other compensation set forth herein, Executive shall be eligible
to participate in the CGX Annual Incentive Compensation Plan at a target bonus award level of 100%
of Executive’s base salary. If Executive is employed on the last day of a fiscal year, the bonus
for such fiscal year, if any, shall be deemed earned as of such date and payable
whether or not employment continues beyond such date.  The bonus, if any, shall be paid on
June 15 following the fiscal year in which such bonus was earned.

6. Equity Awards.  In addition to the other compensation set forth herein, Executive shall

shares or (ii) the number of shares obtained by dividing a number as determined by the
Compensation Committee, but not less than $500,000, by the closing price per share of CGX
common stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange (or if not reported on the New York

is then quoted) on the last trading day immediately preceding such effective date. Such RS
Units shall (i) vest on the annual anniversary of the date of grant in equal increments from
the date of grant over a period of no greater than five years and no less than three years
and (ii) shall otherwise be granted in accordance with and subject to the terms set forth on
the form of CGX Restricted Stock Grant Unit approved by the Compensation Committee pursuant
to the Consolidated Graphics, Inc. Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan, as the
same may be amended from time to time (the “LTIP”).




(b) Options to purchase 450,000 shares of CGX common stock (the “Options”), such
options having been granted in May 2008 pursuant to the Prior Employment Agreement. Such
Options (x) vest in 20% annual increments beginning on the first anniversary of the date of
grant and continuing thereafter, (y) expire on the earlier of (1) the 180th day following
termination of employment or (2) the tenth anniversary of the date of grant, and (z) were
granted in accordance with and subject to the terms of the form of CGX Stock Option
Agreement approved by the Compensation Committee pursuant to the LTIP. Notwithstanding any
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Options and any other outstanding stock
options held by Executive shall be fully vested and exercisable upon a Trigger Date.



7. Executive Expenses.  During the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to be
reimbursed for reasonable normal business expenses directly incurred in the performance of the
Duties hereunder and in accordance with CGX Policies in effect from time to time. Such
reimbursements shall be paid no later than the end of the calendar year following the calendar year
in which the expenses were incurred.



8. No Competing Business.  In consideration for the benefits and Confidential Information
received by Executive pursuant to this Agreement, during the Noncompetition Period, Executive shall
not, except as permitted by Section 12 of this Agreement, directly or indirectly own, manage,
operate, control, invest or acquire an interest in, or otherwise engage or participate (whether as
a proprietor, partner, employee, shareholder, member, director, officer, executive, joint venturer,
investor, consultant, agent, sales representative, broker or other participant) in any Competitive
Business operating in or soliciting business from CGX’s Market, without regard to (a) whether the
Competitive Business has its office or other business facilities within CGX’s Market, (b) whether
any of the activities of Executive referred to above occur or
are performed within CGX’s Market or (c) whether Executive resides, or reports to an office,
within CGX’s Market.

9. No Interference with the Business.  In consideration for the benefits received by Executive
pursuant to this Agreement, during the Noncompetition Period, Executive shall not:




(a) directly or indirectly solicit, induce or intentionally influence any third party
sales representative, agent, supplier, lender, lessor or any other person which has a
business relationship with CGX and/or any Affiliate or which had on the date of this
Agreement a business relationship with CGX and/or any Affiliate to discontinue, reduce the
extent of, discourage the development of or otherwise harm such relationship with CGX and/or
any Affiliate;




(b) directly or indirectly attempt to induce any known customer to terminate any
contract or otherwise divert from CGX and/or any Affiliate any trade or business being
conducted by any such customer with CGX and/or any Affiliate or directly or indirectly
attempt to solicit, induce or intentionally influence any prospective or past customer of
CGX and/or any Affiliate to discontinue, reduce the extent of, or not conduct business with
CGX and/or any Affiliate;




(c) directly or indirectly recruit, solicit, induce or influence any executive,
employee or sales agent of CGX and/or any Affiliate to discontinue such sales, employment or
agency relationship with CGX and/or any such Affiliate;

employ as a sales representative or Executive any person who is then (or was at any time
since the Effective Date) employed by CGX and/or any of the Affiliates; or




(e) directly or indirectly denigrate or in any manner undertake to discredit CGX, any
Affiliate or any successor thereof or any person, operation or entity associated with CGX or
any Affiliate.



10. No Disclosure of Confidential Information.  Executive shall not directly or indirectly
knowingly disclose to anyone or use or otherwise exploit for Executive’s own benefit or for the
benefit of anyone other than CGX and/or any of the Affiliates any Confidential Information.



11. Consideration for Restrictions.  Executive acknowledges that the restrictions imposed
under Sections 3, 8, 9 and 10 are supported by the consideration to be received by Executive
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.



12. Permitted Activities.  The restrictions set forth in Sections 3, 8 and 9 of this Agreement
shall not apply to Permitted Activities (as defined in Section 18 below).



13. Reduction of Restrictions by Court Action.  If the length of time, type of activity,
geographic area or other restrictions set forth in the restrictions of Sections 3, 8, 9 or 10 are
deemed unreasonable in any court proceeding, the parties hereto agree that the court may reduce
such restrictions to ones it deems reasonable to protect the substantial investment of CGX and
the Affiliates in their businesses and the goodwill attached thereto.

14. Remedies.  Executive understands that CGX and the Affiliates will not have an adequate
remedy at law for the breach or threatened breach by Executive of any one or more of the covenants
set forth in this Agreement and agrees that in the event of any such breach or threatened breach,
CGX or any Affiliate may, in addition to the other remedies which may be available to it, file a
suit in equity to enjoin Executive from the breach or threatened breach of such covenants.  In the
event either party commences legal action to enforce its or his rights under this Agreement, the
prevailing party in such action shall be entitled to recover all of the costs and expenses in
connection therewith, including reasonable attorney’s fees.




15. Termination Without Change in Control.




(a) The “Termination Date” shall mean the date in which the first of the following
occur:




	 	(i)	 	the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date;

	 
	 	(ii)	 	Executive’s death;

	 
	 	(iii)	 	the Disability (as defined below) of Executive;

	 
	 	(iv)	 	termination by CGX of Executive for Cause (as defined below);

	 
	 	(v)	 	termination by CGX of Executive without Cause;

	 
	 	(vi)	 	the resignation of Executive for any reason
other than Good Reason (as defined below), which shall take effect
immediately upon CGX’s receipt of such resignation, or

	 
	 	(vii)	 	the resignation of Executive for Good Reason,
which shall take effect immediately upon CGX’s receipt of such
resignation;







(each of clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), and (vii) are referred to herein as a
“Termination”). Notwithstanding anything in this Section 15(a) to the contrary, in the case
of any payment or benefit provided pursuant to clause (iii), (v) or (vii) that is subject to
Section 409A of the Code, “Termination” shall mean Executive’s “separation from service”
with CGX within the meaning of Section 409A(2)(A)(i) of the Code and the corresponding
“Termination Date” shall be the date Executive incurs such separation from service.


 


5









 






(b) If a Termination occurs pursuant to clause (ii), (iii), (v) or (vii) of Section
15(a) and is not during the Post-Change in Control Period (as defined below), then CGX shall
(i) deliver or provide to Executive or Executive’s estate (1) within five days following the
Termination Date (subject to compliance with Section 31 hereof), in a lump-sum payment, an
amount equal to four times Executive’s annual base salary as in effect immediately prior to
the Termination, (2) an amount equal to the Executive’s
bonus earned under the Annual Incentive Compensation Plan for the fiscal year in which
the Termination occurs based on attainment of the applicable performance goals for such
bonus, pro-rated for the number of days Executive was employed during such fiscal year,
payable on the date that is two and one-half months after the end of such fiscal year, and
(3) if Executive so elects, COBRA benefits, provided, however, that Executive shall be
responsible for the costs thereof, and (ii) take such action as may be required to
(1) accelerate vesting of any then unvested Equity Awards and (2) remove all sale
restrictions imposed on Equity Awards held by the Executive, whether such Equity Awards have
been exercised before such Termination Date or are subsequently exercised.




(c) If a Termination occurs pursuant to clause (iv) or (vi), then CGX shall deliver to
Executive (i) Executive’s base salary through the Termination Date to the extent not already
paid and (ii) any other amounts earned, accrued or owing as of such Termination Date, but
not yet paid by CGX to Executive.  Any Equity Awards held by Executive which are not vested
as of the Termination Date shall expire or be forfeited or cancelled as of the Termination
Date. In addition, all sale restrictions imposed on Equity Awards held by the Executive
shall not be accelerated but shall be removed in accordance with the terms and schedule
applicable to such Equity Awards.




(d) Termination of employment under this Section 15 shall not relieve Executive of his
obligations under Sections 8 and 9 hereof, notwithstanding the termination of Executive’s
compensation or the termination of the other terms and conditions of this Agreement.  In
addition, termination of employment under this Section 15 shall not relieve Executive of his
obligations under Section 10 hereof, which are intended to continue indefinitely,
notwithstanding the termination of Executive’s compensation or the termination of the other
terms and conditions of this Agreement.  Executive’s violation of any of his obligations
under Sections 8, 9 or 10 hereof shall relieve CGX of its obligation to pay any of the
amounts or provide any of the benefits as contemplated in this Agreement, including those
set forth in this Section 15, except as otherwise required by law.




16. Termination After Change in Control.




(a) During the period commencing on the date on which a Change in Control occurs and,
subject only to the provisions of this Section 16, continuing until the expiration of the
third anniversary of the date of the occurrence of the Change in Control (the “Post-Change
in Control Period”), Executive shall receive the same compensation and benefits provided in
Sections 4, 5 and 6 at the levels and at rates not less than that of the Executive with
respect to any calendar year during the three (3) calendar years immediately preceding the
year in which the Change in Control occurred, or at such higher levels and/or rates as may
be determined from time to time by the Board. If and to the extent Employee Benefits are
not payable or provided to Executive under any such policy, plan, program or arrangement as
a result of the amendment or termination thereof subsequent to a Change in Control, then CGX
shall itself pay or provide such Employee Benefits. Nothing in this Agreement shall
preclude improvement or enhancement of any such Employee Benefits, provided that no such
improvement shall in any way diminish any other obligation of CGX under this Agreement.


 


6









 






(b) If a Termination occurs pursuant to clause (ii), (iii), (v) or (vii) of Section
15(a) and is during the Post-Change in Control Period, then CGX shall:




	 	(i)	 	deliver or provide to Executive or Executive’s
estate, within five days following the Termination Date (subject to
compliance with Section 31 hereof), in a lump-sum payment, (A) an
amount equal to the aggregate base salary (at the rate as in effect
immediately prior to the Termination or, if greater, at the rate not
less than that of the Executive with respect to any calendar year
during the three calendar years immediately preceding the year in which
the Change in Control occurred) Executive would have received from the
Termination Date through the date specified in Section 15(a)(i), but
not less than six times Executive’s annual base salary as in effect
immediately prior to the Termination or the Change in Control,
whichever is greater, and (B) an amount equal to the target bonus award
for Executive under the Annual Incentive Compensation Plan for the
fiscal year in which the Termination occurs pro-rated for the number of
days Executive was employed during such fiscal year;

	 
	 	(ii)	 	(A) for the remainder of the Post-Change in
Control Period CGX shall arrange to provide the Executive with Employee
Benefits identical to those which the Executive was receiving or
entitled to receive immediately prior to the Termination Date (and if
and to the extent that such benefits shall not or cannot be paid or
provided under any policy, plan, program or arrangement of CGX solely
due to the fact that the Executive is no longer an officer or employee
of CGX, then CGX shall itself pay to the Executive and/or the
Executive’s dependents and beneficiaries, such Employee Benefits) and
(B) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the remainder of
the Post-Change in Control Period shall be considered service with CGX
for the purpose of service credits under CGX’s retirement income,
supplemental executive retirement and other benefit plans applicable to
the Executive and/or the Executive’s dependents and beneficiaries
immediately prior to the Termination Date. Without otherwise limiting
the purposes or effect of Section 22 hereof, Employee Benefits payable
to the Executive pursuant to this Subsection 16(c)(ii) by reason of any
“welfare benefit plan” of CGX (as the term “welfare benefit plan” is
defined in Section 3(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974, as amended) shall be reduced to the extent comparable welfare
benefits are actually received by the Executive from another employer
during such period following the Executive’s Termination Date until the
expiration of the Post-Change in Control Period.

	 	(iii)	 	In addition to all other compensation due to
the Executive hereunder, the following shall occur immediately prior to
the occurrence of a Change in Control that satisfies the requirements
of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) of the Code (1) all Equity Awards held by
the Executive prior to a Change in Control that are options shall
become exercisable, regardless of whether or not the
vesting/performance conditions set forth in the relevant agreements
shall have been satisfied in full; (2) all unvested Equity Awards held
by Executive shall be immediately vested and eligible to be converted
immediately into shares of CGX’s common stock otherwise pursuant to the
terms thereof and all restrictions on the sale by the Executive of any
 shares of CGX’s common stock, including those pursuant to the exercise
of any Equity Award imposing such restrictions, shall be removed and
the securities shall become freely transferable; (3) all restrictions
on any Equity Awards granted by CGX to the Executive prior to a Change
in Control that are restricted securities shall be removed and the
securities shall become fully vested and freely transferable,
regardless of whether the vesting/performance conditions set forth in
the relevant agreements shall have been satisfied in full; (4) the
Executive shall have an immediate right to receive all performance
 shares, if any, granted prior to a Change in Control, and such
performance shares, if any, shall become fully vested and freely
transferable or payable without restrictions, regardless of whether or
not specific performance goals set forth in the relevant agreements
shall have been attained; and (5) all performance units, if any,
granted to the Executive prior to a Change in Control shall become
immediately payable in cash or Common Stock, at the Executive’s sole
option, regardless of whether or not the relevant performance cycle has
been completed, and regardless of whether any other terms and
conditions of the relevant agreements shall have been satisfied in
full; provided, that if the terms of any plan or agreement providing
for such Equity Awards do not allow such acceleration or payment as
described above, CGX shall take or cause to be taken any action
required to allow such acceleration or payment or to separately pay the
value of such benefits.







(c) Termination of employment under this Section 16 shall not relieve Executive of his
obligations under Sections 8 and 9 hereof, notwithstanding the termination of Executive’s
compensation or the termination of the other terms and conditions of this Agreement.  In
addition, termination of employment under this Section 16 shall not relieve Executive of his
obligations under Section 10 hereof, which are intended to continue indefinitely,
notwithstanding the termination of Executive’s compensation or the termination of the other
terms and conditions of this Agreement.  Executive’s violation of any of his obligations
under Sections 8, 9 or 10 hereof shall relieve CGX of its obligation to pay any of the
amounts or provide any of the benefits as
contemplated in this Agreement, including those set forth in this Section 16, except as
otherwise required by law.

17. Gross-Up.




(a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event a public
accounting firm selected by Executive (the “Accounting Firm”) shall determine that any
payment, benefit, or distribution by CGX to Executive (whether paid or payable or
distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of Section 15 or Section 16 of this
Agreement or otherwise, but determined without regard to any additional payments required
under this Section 17) (each a “Payment”) is subject to the excise tax imposed by
Section 4999 of the Code, or any interest or penalties are incurred by Executive with
respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties,
are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”), then CGX shall pay to
Executive an additional payment (a “Gross-Up Payment”) in an amount such that after payment
by Executive of all taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such
taxes), including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any interest and penalties
imposed with respect thereto), and the Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment,
Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax imposed upon the
Payments. The Gross-Up Payment to Executive shall be made no earlier than the date of the
Payment to which such Gross-Up Payment relates and no later than December 31st of the year
following the year during which Executive remits the related taxes.




(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 17(c) below, all determinations required to be
made under this Section 17, including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is required and
the amount of such Gross-Up Payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such
determination, shall be made by the Accounting Firm which shall provide detailed supporting
calculations both to CGX and Executive as soon as possible following a request made by
Executive or CGX.  All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by
CGX.  Any Gross-Up Payment, as determined pursuant to this Section 17, shall be paid by CGX
to Executive within five (5) days of the receipt of the Accounting Firm’s determination but
no later than December 31st of the year following the year during which Executive remits the
taxes related to the Payment.  If the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is
payable by Executive, it shall furnish Executive with a written opinion that failure to
report the Excise Tax on Executive’s applicable federal income tax return would not result
in the imposition of a negligence or similar penalty.  Any determination by the Accounting
Firm shall be binding upon CGX and Executive.  As a result of the uncertainty in the
application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the
Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that Gross-Up Payments which will not have been
made by CGX should have been made (“Underpayment”), consistent with the calculations
required to be made hereunder.  If CGX exhausts its remedies pursuant to Section 17(c) below
and Executive thereafter is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, the Accounting
Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such
Underpayment shall be promptly paid by CGX to or for the benefit of Executive no later
than December 31st of the year following the year during which Executive remitted the
related taxes.


 


9









 






(c) Executive shall notify CGX in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service
that, if successful, would require the payment by CGX of the Gross-Up Payment.  Such
notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no later than ten (10) business days
after Executive is informed in writing of such claim and shall set forth in reasonable
detail the nature of such claim and the date on which such claim is requested to be paid. 
Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the ten-day period following
the date on which Executive gives such notice to CGX (or such shorter period ending on the
date that any payment of taxes with respect to such claim is due).  If CGX notifies
Executive in writing prior to the expiration of such period that it desires to contest such
claim, Executive shall:




	 	(i)	 	give CGX any information reasonably requested
by CGX relating to such claim,

	 
	 	(ii)	 	take such action in connection with contesting
such claim as CGX shall reasonably request in writing from time to
time, including, without limitation, accepting legal representation
with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by CGX,

	 
	 	(iii)	 	cooperate with CGX in good faith to
effectively contest such claim, and

	 
	 	(iv)	 	permit CGX to participate in any proceedings
relating to such claim;







 provided, however, that CGX shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses
(including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and
shall indemnify and hold Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or
income tax (including interest and penalties with respect thereto) imposed as a result of
such representation and payment of costs and expenses.  Without limitation on the foregoing
provisions of this Section 17(c), CGX shall control all proceedings taken in connection with
such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forgo any and all administrative
appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such
claim and may, at its sole option, either direct Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue
for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and Executive agrees to
prosecute such contest to a determination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of
initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as CGX shall determine; provided
further, that if CGX directs Executive to pay such claim and sue for a refund, CGX shall
advance the amount of such payment to Executive on an interest-free basis and shall
indemnify and hold Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax or income
tax (including interest or penalties with respect thereto) imposed with respect to such
advance or with respect to any imputed income with respect to such advance; and provided
further, that any extension of the statute of limitations relating to payment of taxes for
the taxable year of Executive with respect to which such
contested amount is claimed to be due is limited solely to such contested amount. 
Furthermore, CGX’s control of the contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which a
Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder and Executive shall be entitled to settle or
contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any
other taxing authority.


 


10









 






(d) If, after the receipt by Executive of an amount advanced by CGX pursuant to this
Section 17, Executive becomes entitled to receive, and receives, any refund with respect to
such claim, Executive shall (subject to CGX’s complying with the requirements of this
Section 17) promptly pay to CGX the amount of such refund (together with any interest paid
or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto).  If, after the receipt by Executive of
any amount advanced by CGX pursuant to Section 17, a determination is made that Executive
shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to such claim and CGX does not notify
Executive in writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration
of thirty (30) days after such determination, then such advance shall be forgiven and shall
not be required to be repaid and the amount of such advance shall offset, to the extent
thereof, the amount of Gross-Up Payment required to be paid.



18. Definitions.  As used in this Agreement, terms defined in the preamble and recitals of or
elsewhere in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth therein and the following terms shall
have the meanings set forth below:




(a) Affiliate or Affiliates shall mean and refer to any direct or indirect subsidiaries
of CGX, or any other entity or entities through which CGX or any subsidiary of CGX may
conduct CGX’s Line of Business.




(b) Cause shall mean (i) an intentional act of material fraud, embezzlement or theft in
connection with the Executive’s Duties or in the course of the Executive’s employment with
CGX; (ii) intentional, wrongful damage to material property of CGX; (iii) intentional,
wrongful disclosure of material secret processes or Confidential Information; or (iv)
intentional wrongful engagement in any activity prohibited by Section 8 hereof; and any such
act shall have been materially harmful to CGX. For purposes of this Agreement, no act, or
failure to act, on the part of the Executive shall be deemed “intentional” if it was due
primarily to an error in judgment or negligence, but shall be deemed “intentional” only if
done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive not in good faith and without reasonable
belief that the Executive’s action or omission was in the best interest of CGX.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive shall not be deemed to have been terminated for
“Cause” hereunder unless and until there shall have been delivered to the Executive a copy
of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three-quarters of the
Board then in office at a meeting of the Board called and held for such purpose (after
reasonable notice to the Executive and an opportunity for the Executive, together with the
Executive’s counsel, to be heard before the Board), finding that, in the good faith opinion
of the Board, the Executive has committed an act set forth above in this Subsection 18(b)
and specifying the particulars thereof in detail. Nothing herein shall limit the right of
the Executive or the Executive’s beneficiaries to contest the validity or propriety of any
such determination.

(c) For purposes of this Agreement, a Change in Control will be deemed to have occurred
on the date any of the following events shall occur:




	 	(i)	 	CGX is merged, consolidated, converted or
reorganized into or with another corporation or other legal entity, and

than CGX, any subsidiary of CGX, any employee benefit plan of CGX or of any subsidiary of
CGX, and any person organized, appointed or established by CGX for or pursuant to the terms
of any such plan or for the purpose of funding any such plan or funding other employee
benefits for employees of CGX or any subsidiary of CGX), published or sent or given within

19. Notices.  All notices, demands or other communications required or provided hereunder
shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given and received when delivered in person or
transmitted by facsimile transmission (telecopy), cable or telex to the respective parties or seven
(7) days after dispatch by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the parties
at the addresses set forth below or at such other addresses as such parties may designate by notice
to the other parties:



	 	 	 	 	 
	 

	 	If to CGX:
	 	Consolidated Graphics, Inc.
	 

	 	 	 	5858 Westheimer, Suite 200
	 

	 	 	 	Houston, Texas 77057
	 

	 	 	 	Attention: Chairman of the Compensation Committee
	 
	 	 	 	 
	 

	 	If to Executive:
	 	Joe R. Davis
	 

	 	 	 	c/o Consolidated Graphics, Inc.
	 

	 	 	 	5858 Westheimer, Suite 200
	 

	 	 	 	Houston, Texas 77057






20. Legal Fees and Expenses. It is the intent of CGX that the Executive not be required to
incur the expenses associated with the enforcement of the Executive’s rights under this Agreement
by litigation or other legal action because the cost and expense thereof would substantially
detract from the benefits intended to be extended to the Executive hereunder. Accordingly, if it
should appear to the Executive that CGX has failed to comply with any of its obligations under this
Agreement or in the event that CGX or any other person takes any action to declare this Agreement
void or unenforceable, or institutes any litigation designed to deny, or to recover from, the
Executive the benefits intended to be provided to the Executive hereunder, CGX irrevocably
authorizes the Executive from time to time to retain counsel of the Executive’s choice, at the
expense of CGX as hereafter provided, to represent the Executive in connection with the litigation
or defense of any litigation or other legal action,

 


17









 





whether
by or against CGX or any director, officer, shareholder or other person affiliated with CGX, in any jurisdiction.
Notwithstanding any existing or prior attorney-client relationship between CGX and such counsel,
CGX irrevocably consents to the Executive’s entering into an attorney-client relationship with such
counsel, and in connection therewith CGX and the Executive agree that a confidential relationship
shall exist between the Executive and such counsel. CGX shall pay or cause to be paid and shall be
solely responsible for any and all attorneys’ and related fees and expenses incurred by the
Executive as a result of CGX’s failure to perform this Agreement or any provision thereof or as a
result of CGX or any person contesting the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any
provision thereof as aforesaid. CGX shall pay such fees and related expenses promptly (but in no
event later than December 31st of the year following the year in which such fees and expenses were
incurred) after a statement or statements, prepared by such counsel in accordance with such
counsel’s customary billing practices, therefor are received by CGX. Amounts eligible for
reimbursement under this Section are only those amounts incurred prior to the second anniversary of
the Termination Date. The maximum aggregate amount payable by CGX under this Section 20 shall not
exceed $50,000.00 during the 12-month period ending on the first anniversary of the Termination
Date and $50,000 during the 12-month period ending on the second anniversary of the Termination
Date.




21. Successors; Assignment. 




(a) CGX, but not Executive, may assign or delegate any of its rights or obligations
hereunder; provided, however, that without the consent of Executive, CGX shall not be
relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any assignment to a third party;
provided, further, that an assignment made in accordance with this section shall not
constitute a termination of employment for purposes of this Agreement.




(b) CGX shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger,
consolidation, reorganization or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business
and/or assets of CGX, to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same
manner and to the same extent CGX would be required to perform if no such succession had
taken place.




(c) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successor or
assignee thereof and any such successor or assignee shall be deemed substituted for CGX
under the terms of this Agreement and all references to “CGX” shall be deemed to mean such
successor or assignee.  As used in this Agreement, the term “assignee” shall include any
Affiliate or person, firm, partnership, corporation or CGX which at any time, whether by
merger, purchase or otherwise, acquires all of the capital stock or substantially all of the
assets or business of CGX, and any assignee or successor thereof.




(d) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s
personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs,
distributees and/or legatees.


 


18









 






(e) This Agreement is personal in nature and neither of the parties hereto shall,
without the consent of the other, assign, transfer or delegate this Agreement or any
rights or obligations hereunder except as expressly provided in Subsection 21(a)
hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Executive’s right to receive
payments hereunder shall not be assignable, transferable or delegable, whether by pledge,
creation of a security interest or otherwise, other than by a transfer by the Executive’s
will or by the laws of descent and distribution and, in the event of any attempted
assignment or transfer contrary to this Subsection 21(e), CGX shall have no liability to pay
any amount so attempted to be assigned, transferred or delegated.




(f) CGX and the Executive recognize that each party will have no adequate remedy at law
for breach by the other of any of the agreements contained herein and, in the event of any
such breach, CGX and the Executive hereby agree and consent that the other shall be entitled
to a decree of specific performance, mandamus or other appropriate remedy to enforce
performance of this Agreement.



22. No Mitigation Obligation.  CGX hereby acknowledges that it will be difficult, and may be
impossible, for Executive to find reasonably comparable employment following the Termination Date
and that the noncompetition covenants contained in Sections 8 and 9 hereof will further limit the
employment opportunities for Executive.  Accordingly, the parties hereto expressly agree that the
payment of all such amounts and the provision of all such benefits by CGX to Executive in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement will be liquidated damages, and that Executive shall
not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Agreement by seeking
other employment or otherwise, nor shall any profits, income, earnings or other benefits from any
source whatsoever create any mitigation, offset, reduction or any other obligation on the part of
Executive hereunder or otherwise.



23. Amendment and Modification.  No amendment or modification of the terms of this Agreement
shall be binding upon either party unless reduced to writing and signed by Executive and a duly
appointed officer of CGX.



24. Governing Law.  This Agreement and all rights and obligations hereunder, including matters
of construction, validity and performance, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas,
without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws thereof.



25. Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, any one of
which shall be deemed the original without reference to the others.



26. Severability.  If any provision or portion of this Agreement shall be determined to be
invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions and portions of this Agreement
shall be unaffected thereby and shall remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent
permitted by law.



27. Effective Date.  This Agreement shall become effective only upon and as of the Effective
Date.



28. Waiver.  The failure of either party to insist, in any one or more instances, upon
performance of the terms or conditions of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver or
relinquishment of any right granted hereunder or of the future performance of any such term,
covenant or condition.


 


19









 





29. Construction of Agreement.  Headings of the sections in this Agreement are for reference
purposes only and shall not be deemed to have any substantive effect.  Unless the contents of this
Agreement otherwise clearly requires, references to the plural include the singular and the
singular include the plural.  Whenever the context here requires, the masculine shall refer to the
feminine, the neuter shall refer to the masculine or feminine, the singular shall refer to the
plural, and vice versa.



30. Prior Agreements. This Agreement is voluntarily entered into and expressly supersedes and
takes the place of any prior employment and/or change in control agreements between the parties
hereto; including the Prior Employment Agreement. In addition, the parties hereto acknowledge and
agree that the sales restrictions imposed by the employment agreement dated February 13, 2006 on
shares of CGX common stock underlying (i) the stock option granted to Executive on February 13,
2006 to purchase 300,000 shares of CGX common stock, which vested immediately on the grant date,
and (ii) the unvested stock options held by Executive on February 13, 2006 to purchase an aggregate
of 300,000 shares of CGX common stock, which were also accelerated on February 13, 2006, shall be
effectively removed as of the execution date of this Agreement, and the parties shall take such
action as may be necessary to amend such stock option agreements to reflect the prior accelerated
vesting, as necessary, and the removal of the sales restrictions on the underlying shares of CGX
common stock issuable upon exercise of such stock options.



31. Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the
Code and any ambiguous provision will be construed in a manner that is compliant with or exempt
from the application of Section 409A of the Code. If any provision of this Agreement (or of any
award of compensation, including equity compensation or benefits) would cause Executive to incur
any additional tax or interest under Section 409A of the Code and accompanying Treasury regulations
and guidance, CGX shall, after consulting with Executive, reform such provision to comply with
Section 409A of the Code, to the extent permitted under Section 409A of the Code; provided,
however, that CGX agrees to maintain, to the maximum extent practicable, the original intent and
economic benefit to Executive of the applicable provision without violating the provisions of
Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if
Executive has a Termination (other than by reason of death), is deemed on his Termination Date to
be a “specified employee” within the meaning of that term under Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code
and CGX is a public company, then the payments and benefits under this Agreement that are subject
to Section 409A of the Code shall be made or provided as soon as practicable but not prior to the
later of (A) the payment date set forth in this Agreement or (B) the date that is the earliest of
(i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the Termination Date or (ii) the date of
Executive’s death, in either case without interest for such delay. To the extent any
reimbursements or in-kind benefits provided to Executive pursuant to this Agreement are subject to
Section 409A of the Code, including without limitation any health plan benefits subject to Section
409A of the Code or legal fees and expenses paid or reimbursed pursuant to Section 20, then
in accordance with Section 409A of the Code: (A) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement
or in-kind benefits provided during Executive’s taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible
for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided in any other taxable year; (B) the reimbursement
must be made on or before the last day of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in
which the expense was
incurred; and (C) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation
or exchange for another benefit.
