AGREEMENT 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals incorporated herein and the mutual covenants and promises contained herein
and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby expressly acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 
  

	1.	Retention and Duties. 

  

	 	1.1	Retention. The Company does hereby agree to employ the Executive for the Period of Employment (as such term is defined in Section 2) on the terms and
conditions expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Executive does hereby accept and agree to such employment, on the terms and conditions expressly set forth in this Agreement. 


 

	 	1.2	 Duties. During the Period of Employment, the Executive shall serve the Company as one of its Senior Vice Presidents. The Executive shall
have duties and obligations generally consistent with that position as the Company may assign from time to time. The Executive shall comply with the corporate policies of the Company as they are in effect from time to time throughout the Period of
Employment (including, without limitation, the Company’s Code of Ethical Business Conduct policy, as it may change from time to time). During the Period of Employment, the Executive shall report directly to an officer determined by the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company or his or her designee. During the Period of Employment, the Executive shall perform services for NCL 



  

			
		  	  

		  	Initial










	 	 
Corporation, Ltd., a company organized under the laws of Bermuda (the “Parent”), but shall not be entitled to any additional compensation with respect to such services.



  

	 	1.3	No Other Employment; Minimum Time Commitment. During the Period of Employment, the Executive shall (i) devote substantially all of the
Executive’s business time, energy and skill to the performance of the Executive’s duties for the Company, (ii) perform such duties in a faithful, effective and efficient manner to the best of Executive’s abilities, and
(iii) hold no other employment. The Executive’s service on the boards of directors (or similar body) of charitable or other business entities at any time during the Period of Employment is subject to the continuing approval of the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company. 

  

	 	1.4	No Breach of Contract. The Executive hereby represents to the Company that: (i) the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Executive and the
Company and the performance by the Executive of the Executive’s duties hereunder do not and shall not constitute a breach of, conflict with, or otherwise contravene or cause a default under, the terms of any other agreement or policy to which
the Executive is a party or otherwise bound or any judgment, order or decree to which the Executive is subject; (ii) that the Executive has no information (including, without limitation, confidential information and trade secrets) relating to
any other Person (as such term is defined in Section 5.5) which would prevent, or be violated by, the Executive entering into this Agreement or carrying out Executive’s duties hereunder; (iii) the Executive is not bound by any
employment, consulting, non-compete, confidentiality, trade secret or similar agreement (other than this Agreement) with any other Person; and (iv) the Executive understands the Company will rely upon the accuracy and truth of the
representations and warranties of the Executive set forth herein and the Executive consents to such reliance. 

  

	 	1.5	Location. During the Period of Employment, the Executive’s principal place of employment shall be the Company’s principal executive office as it
may be located from time to time. The Executive agrees that he will be regularly present at the Company’s principal executive office. The Executive acknowledges that he will be required to travel from time to time in the course of performing
Executive’s duties for the Company. 

  

	2.	 Period of Employment. The “Period of Employment” shall be a period of two years commencing on the date hereof (the
“Effective Date”) and ending at the close of business on the second anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that this Agreement shall be automatically renewed, and the Period
of Employment shall be automatically extended for one (1) additional year on the Termination Date and each anniversary of the Termination Date thereafter, unless either party gives written notice at least ninety (90) days prior to the
expiration of the Period of Employment (including any renewal thereof) of such party’s desire to terminate the Period of Employment (such notice to be delivered in accordance with Section 18). The term “Period of Employment”
shall include any extension thereof pursuant to the 



  

			
		  	  

		  	










	 	 
preceding sentence. Provision of notice that the Period of Employment shall not be extended or further extended, as the case may be, shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement and shall not
constitute a termination by the Company without Cause for purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Period of Employment is subject to earlier termination as provided below in this Agreement. 



 

	3.	Compensation. 

  

	 	3.1	Base Salary. During the Period of Employment, the Company shall pay the Executive a base salary (the “Base Salary”), which shall be paid
biweekly or in such other installments as shall be consistent with the Company’s regular payroll practices in effect from time to time. The Executive’s Base Salary shall be at an annualized rate of two hundred and fifty thousand dollars
($250,000). The Board (or a committee thereof) will review the Executive’s rate of Base Salary on an annual basis and may, in its sole discretion, increase (but not decrease) the rate then in effect. 


 

	 	3.2	Incentive Bonus. The Executive shall be eligible to receive a performance-based incentive bonus for each fiscal year of the Company that occurs during the
Period of Employment (“Incentive Bonus”); provided that the Executive must be employed by the Company at the time the Company pays the Incentive Bonus with respect to any such fiscal year in order to be eligible for an Incentive
Bonus with respect to that fiscal year (and, if the Executive is not so employed at such time, in no event shall he have been considered to have “earned” any Incentive Bonus with respect to the fiscal year in question). The Executive shall
have the opportunity to earn a minimum Incentive Bonus amount for each fiscal year of the Company during the Period of Employment equal to three hundred and fifty thousand dollars ($350,000), and an opportunity to earn up to a maximum Incentive
Bonus amount of seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars ($750,000) for each such fiscal year. The Executive’s actual Incentive Bonus amount for a particular fiscal year shall be determined by the Board (or a committee thereof) in its sole
discretion, based on metrics that the Company and the Executive mutually agree reflect a successful increase in the Company’s direct to consumer business and overall performance of the Sales Organization. The minimum and maximum Incentive Bonus
opportunities shall be pro-rated for the 2008 fiscal year, based on the number of days during fiscal 2008 occurring after the Effective Date relative to the total number of days in fiscal 2008. 


 

	 	3.3	 Equity Award. As soon as practicable after the Effective Date, the Parent will grant the Executive an award of “profits units”
under an equity plan established by the Parent and its stockholders for the benefit of certain of the Company’s employees. The Executive’s award of profits units shall be with respect to 0.125% of the total outstanding equity interests of
the Parent at the time of the grant (with the 0.125% being determined on a fully diluted basis taking into account all equity interests then expected to be made available to the Company’s management team, whether or not such interests are then
outstanding). The profits units are intended to constitute a safe harbor profits interest in the Parent that 



  

			
		  	  

		  	










	 	 
satisfies Internal Revenue Procedures 93-27 and 2001-43. Accordingly, the profits units shall entitle the Executive to participate solely in any appreciation in the value of the Parent after the
date the profits units are issued. The terms of the profits units will be contained in an award notice that will be delivered to the Executive to evidence the award of profits units. 



 

	4.	Benefits. 

  

	 	4.1	Retirement, Welfare and Fringe Benefits. During the Period of Employment, the Executive shall be entitled to participate, on a basis generally consistent
with other employees, in all employee pension and welfare benefit plans and programs, all fringe benefit plans and programs and all other benefit plans and programs (including those providing for perquisites or similar benefits) that are made
available by the Company to the Company’s employees generally, in accordance with the eligibility and participation provisions of such plans and as such plans or programs may be in effect from time to time. 


 

	 	4.2	Medical Executive Reimbursement Plan. During the Period of Employment, the Company will provide the Executive, and the Executive’s spouse and
dependent children, with a Medical Executive Reimbursement Plan, subject to the terms and conditions of such plan. Reimbursement under said plan shall be limited to a maximum of fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000) in any calendar year.


  

	 	4.3	Company Automobile. During the Period of Employment, the Company shall provide the Executive with either an automobile or a monthly cash car allowance, as
determined by the Company in its discretion and in accordance with the Company’s policy as in effect from time to time. In the event the Executive receives a company automobile in accordance with the Company’s policy, the Executive shall
be responsible for the income tax attributable to the Executive’s personal use of the company automobile benefits set forth in this paragraph. 

  

	 	4.4	Reimbursement of Business Expenses. The Executive is authorized to incur reasonable expenses in carrying out the Executive’s duties for the Company
under this Agreement and shall be entitled to reimbursement for all reasonable business expenses the Executive incurs during the Period of Employment in connection with carrying out the Executive’s duties for the Company, subject to the
Company’s expense reimbursement policies and any pre-approval policies in effect from time to time. 

  

	 	4.5	Vacation and Other Leave. During the Period of Employment, the Executive’s annual rate of vacation accrual shall be four (4) weeks per year;
provided that such vacation shall accrue on a bi-weekly basis in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll cycle and be subject to the Company’s vacation policies in effect from time to time. The Executive shall also be entitled to all
other holiday and leave pay generally available to other employees of the Company. 


  

			
		  	  

		  	










	5.	Termination. 

  

	 	5.1	Termination by the Company. The Executive’s employment by the Company, and the Period of Employment, may be terminated at any time by the Company:
(i) with Cause (as such term is defined in Section 5.5), or (ii) without Cause, or (iii) in the event of the Executive’s death, or (iv) in the event that the Board determines in good faith that the Executive has a
Disability (as such term is defined in Section 5.5). 

  

	 	5.2	Termination by the Executive. The Executive’s employment by the Company, and the Period of Employment, may be terminated by the Executive with no
less than sixty (60) days advance written notice to the Company (such notice to be delivered in accordance with Section 18). 

  

	 	5.3	Benefits Upon Termination. If the Executive’s employment by the Company is terminated during the Period of Employment for any reason by the Company
or by the Executive, or upon or following the expiration of the Period of Employment (in any case, the date that the Executive’s employment by the Company terminates is referred to as the “Severance Date”), the Company shall
have no further obligation to make or provide to the Executive, and the Executive shall have no further right to receive or obtain from the Company, any payments or benefits except as follows: 


(a) The Company shall pay the Executive (or, in the event of Executive’s death, the Executive’s estate) any Accrued Obligations
(as such term is defined in Section 5.5); 
 (b) If, during the Period of Employment, the Executive’s employment with
the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause (and other than due to the Executive’s death or in connection with a good faith determination by the Board that the Executive has a Disability), the Executive shall be entitled to the
following benefits: 
 (i) The Company shall pay the Executive (in addition to the Accrued Obligations), subject to tax
withholding and other authorized deductions, an amount equal to the greater of (A) one times the Executive’s Base Salary at the annualized rate in effect on the Severance Date and (B) the Base Salary the Executive would have earned
through the then current Termination Date (without further extension) at the annualized rate in effect on the Severance Date. Such amount is referred to hereinafter as the “Severance Benefit.” Subject to Section 5.7(a), the
Company shall pay the Severance Benefit to the Executive in substantially equal installments in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll practices over a period of twelve (12) consecutive months, with the first installment payable in
the month following the month in which the Executive’s Separation from Service (as such term is defined in Section 5.5) occurs. (For purposes of clarity, each such installment shall equal the applicable fraction of the


  

			
		  	  

		  	









 
aggregate Severance Benefit. For example, if such installments were to be made on a monthly basis, each installment would equal one-twelfth (1/12th) of the Severance Benefit.) 

(ii) Subject to the Executive’s continued payment of the same percentage of the applicable premiums as he was paying on the
Severance Date, the Company will pay or reimburse the Executive for Executive’s premiums charged to continue medical coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”), at the same or reasonably
equivalent medical coverage for the Executive (and, if applicable, the Executive’s eligible dependents) as in effect immediately prior to the Severance Date, to the extent that the Executive elects such continued coverage; provided that the
Company’s obligation to make any payment or reimbursement pursuant to this clause (ii) shall, subject to Section 5.7(a), commence with continuation coverage for the month following the month in which the Executive’s Separation
from Service occurs and shall cease with continuation coverage for the twelfth month following the month in which the Executive’s Separation from Service occurs (or, if earlier, shall cease upon the first to occur of the Executive’s death,
the date the Executive becomes eligible for coverage under the health plan of a future employer, or the date the Company ceases to offer group medical coverage to its active executive employees or the Company is otherwise under no obligation to
offer COBRA continuation coverage to the Executive). To the extent the Executive elects COBRA coverage, he shall notify the Company in writing of such election prior to such coverage taking effect and complete any other continuation coverage
enrollment procedures the Company may then have in place. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section 5.3, if the Executive breaches Executive’s obligations under Section 6 of this Agreement at any time, from and after the date of such breach and not in any way in limitation of any right or remedy otherwise available to the
Company, the Executive will no longer be entitled to, and the Company will no longer be obligated to pay, any remaining unpaid portion of the Severance Benefit or to any continued Company-paid or reimbursed coverage pursuant to
Section 5.3(b)(ii); provided that, if the Executive provides the release contemplated by Section 5.4, in no event shall the Executive be entitled to a Severance Benefit payment of less than $5,000, which amount the parties agree is good
and adequate consideration, in and of itself, for the Executive’s release contemplated by Section 5.4. 
 (d) The
foregoing provisions of this Section 5.3 shall not affect: (i) the Executive’s receipt of benefits otherwise due terminated employees under group insurance coverage consistent with the terms of the applicable Company welfare benefit
plan; or (ii) the Executive’s rights under COBRA to continue participation in medical, dental, hospitalization and life insurance coverage. 

  

			
		  	  

		  	










	 	5.4	Release; Exclusive Remedy. 

 (a) This Section 5.4 shall apply notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement or any stock option or other equity-based award agreement to the contrary. As a condition precedent to any
Company obligation to the Executive pursuant to Section 5.3(b) or any other obligation to accelerate vesting of any equity-based award in connection with the termination of the Executive’s employment, the Executive shall, upon or promptly
following his last day of employment with the Company, execute a general release agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit A (with such amendments that may be necessary to ensure the release is enforceable to the fullest extent permissible
under then applicable law), and such release agreement shall have not been revoked by the Executive pursuant to any revocation rights afforded by applicable law. 
 (b) The Executive agrees that the payments and benefits contemplated by Section 5.3 (and any applicable acceleration of vesting of an equity-based award in accordance with the terms of such award in
connection with the termination of the Executive’s employment) shall constitute the exclusive and sole remedy for any termination of Executive’s employment and the Executive covenants not to assert or pursue any other remedies, at law or
in equity, with respect to any termination of employment. The Company and the Executive acknowledge and agree that there is no duty of the Executive to mitigate damages under this Agreement. All amounts paid to the Executive pursuant to
Section 5.3 shall be paid without regard to whether the Executive has taken or takes actions to mitigate damages. The Executive agrees to resign, on the Severance Date, as an officer and director of the Company and any Affiliate of the Company,
and as a fiduciary of any benefit plan of the Company or any Affiliate of the Company, and to promptly execute and provide to the Company any further documentation, as requested by the Company, to confirm such resignation. 

 

	 	5.5	Certain Defined Terms. 

 (a) As used herein, “Accrued Obligations” means: 
 (i) any Base
Salary that had accrued but had not been paid on or before the Severance Date (including accrued and unpaid vacation time to the extent that the Executive has completed at least 10 full months of service with the Company and is entitled to accrued
vacation in accordance with the Company’s policy in effect at the applicable time); and 
 (ii) any reimbursement due to
the Executive pursuant to Section 4.4 for expenses reasonably incurred by the Executive on or before the Severance Date and documented and pre-approved, to the extent applicable, in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement
policies in effect at the applicable time. 

  

			
		  	  

		  	









 (b) As used herein, “Affiliate” of the Company means a Person that directly
or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Company. As used in this definition, the term “control,” including the correlative terms “controlling,”
“controlled by” and “under common control with,” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of management or policies (whether through ownership of securities or any partnership or
other ownership interest, by contract or otherwise) of a Person. For purposes of clarity and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term “Affiliate” includes any Person that is, directly or indirectly through any other
Person, engaged in the Business (as such term is defined in Section 6.2) if that Person is controlled by Apollo Management VI, L.P., any of Apollo Management VI, L.P.’s affiliated funds or Star Cruises Limited. However, any Person that
would not otherwise be an Affiliate of the Company but for its ownership by Apollo Management VI, L.P. or any of Apollo Management VI, L.P.’s affiliated funds shall not be considered an Affiliate if such Person is not, directly or indirectly
through any other Person, engaged in the Business (as such term is defined in Section 6.2). 
 (c) As used herein,
“Cause” shall mean, as reasonably determined by a majority of the Board (excluding the Executive, if he is then a member of the Board) based on the information then known to it, that one or more of the following has occurred:

 (i) the Executive has committed a felony (under the laws of the United States or any relevant state, or a similar crime or
offense under the applicable laws of any relevant foreign jurisdiction), other than through vicarious liability not related to the Company or any of its Affiliates; 
 (ii) the Executive has engaged in acts of fraud, dishonesty or other acts of willful misconduct in the course of Executive’s duties hereunder; 

(iii) the Executive willfully fails to perform or uphold Executive’s duties under this Agreement and/or willfully fails to comply
with reasonable directives of the Board and/or Chief Executive Officer, in either case after there has been delivered to the Executive a written demand for performance from the Company and the Executive fails to remedy such condition(s) within ten
(10) days of receiving such written notice thereof; or 
 (iv) any breach by the Executive of the provisions of
Section 6, or any material breach by the Executive of any other contract he is a party to with the Company or any of its Affiliates. 
 (d) As used herein, “Disability” shall mean a physical or mental impairment which, as reasonably determined by the Board, renders the Executive unable to perform the essential functions
of Executive’s employment with the Company, even with reasonable accommodation that does not impose an undue hardship on 

  

			
		  	  

		  	









 
the Company, for more than 90 days in any 180-day period, unless a longer period is required by federal or state law, in which case that longer period would apply. 

(e) As used herein, the term “Person” shall be construed broadly and shall include, without limitation, an individual, a
partnership, a limited liability company, a corporation, an association, a joint stock company, a trust, a joint venture, an unincorporated organization and a governmental entity or any department, agency or political subdivision thereof.

 (f) As used herein, a “Separation from Service” occurs when the Executive dies, retires, or otherwise has a
termination of employment with the Company that constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)(1), without regard to the optional alternative definitions available thereunder.

  

	 	5.6.	Notice of Termination. Any termination of the Executive’s employment under this Agreement shall be communicated by written notice of termination from
the terminating party to the other party. This notice of termination must be delivered in accordance with Section 18 and must indicate the specific provision(s) of this Agreement relied upon in effecting the termination and the basis of any
termination by the Company for Cause. 

  

	 	5.7	Section 409A. 


(a) If the Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(i) as of the date
of the Executive’s Separation from Service, the Executive shall not be entitled to any payment or benefit pursuant to Section 5.3(b) until the earlier of (i) the date which is six (6) months after Executive’s Separation from
Service for any reason other than death, or (ii) the date of the Executive’s death. The provisions of this paragraph shall only apply if, and to the extent, required to avoid the imputation of any tax, penalty or interest pursuant to
Section 409A of the Code. For purposes of clarity, the six (6) month delay shall not apply in the case of severance pay contemplated by Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) to the extent of the limits set forth therein. Any
amounts otherwise payable to the Executive upon or in the six (6) month period following the Executive’s Separation from Service that are not so paid by reason of this Section 5.7(a) shall be paid (without interest) as soon as
practicable (and in all events within thirty (30) days) after the date that is six (6) months after the Executive’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, as soon as practicable, and in all events within thirty (30) days, after
the date of the Executive’s death). 
 (b) To the extent that any benefits pursuant to Section 5.3(b)(ii) or
reimbursements pursuant to Section 4 are taxable to the Executive, any reimbursement payment due to the Executive pursuant to any such provision shall be paid to the Executive on or before the last day of the Executive’s taxable year
following the taxable year in which the related expense was incurred. The 

  

			
		  	  

		  	









 
benefits and reimbursements pursuant to Section 5.3(b)(ii) and Section 4 are not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit and the amount of such benefits and
reimbursements that the Executive receives in one taxable year shall not affect the amount of such benefits or reimbursements that the Executive receives in any other taxable year. 

 

	6.	Protective Covenants. 

  

	 	6.1	Confidential Information; Inventions. 

 (a) The Executive shall not disclose or use at any time, either during the Period of Employment or thereafter, any Confidential Information (as defined below) of which the Executive is or becomes aware,
whether or not such information is developed by Executive, except to the extent that such disclosure or use is directly related to and required by the Executive’s performance in good faith of duties for the Company. The Executive will take all
appropriate steps to safeguard Confidential Information in Executive’s possession and to protect it against disclosure, misuse, espionage, loss and theft. The Executive shall deliver to the Company at the termination of the Period of
Employment, or at any time the Company may request, all memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports, computer tapes and software and other documents and data (and copies thereof) relating to the Confidential Information or the Work Product (as
hereinafter defined) of the business of the Company or any of its Affiliates which the Executive may then possess or have under Executive’s control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive may truthfully respond to a lawful and valid
subpoena or other legal process, but shall give the Company the earliest possible notice thereof, shall, as much in advance of the return date as possible, make available to the Company and its counsel the documents and other information sought, and
shall assist the Company and such counsel in resisting or otherwise responding to such process. 
 (b) As used in this Agreement,
the term “Confidential Information” means information that is not generally known to the public and that is used, developed or obtained by the Company or its Affiliates in connection with their businesses, including, but not limited
to, information, observations and data obtained by the Executive while employed by the Company or any predecessors thereof (including those obtained prior to the Effective Date) concerning (i) the business or affairs of the Company (or such
predecessors), (ii) products or services, (iii) fees, costs and pricing structures, (iv) designs, (v) analyses, (vi) drawings, photographs and reports, (vii) computer software, including operating systems, applications
and program listings, (viii) flow charts, manuals and documentation, (ix) data bases, (x) accounting and business methods, (xi) inventions, devices, new developments, methods and processes, whether patentable or unpatentable and
whether or not reduced to practice, (xii) customers and clients and customer or client lists, (xiii) other copyrightable works, (xiv) all production methods, processes, technology and trade secrets, and (xv) all similar and
related information in whatever form. Confidential Information will not include any information that has been published (other than a disclosure by the Executive in 

  

			
		  	  

		  	









 
breach of this Agreement) in a form generally available to the public prior to the date the Executive proposes to disclose or use such information. Confidential Information will not be deemed to
have been published merely because individual portions of the information have been separately published, but only if all material features comprising such information have been published in combination. 

(c) As used in this Agreement, the term “Work Product” means all inventions, innovations, improvements, technical
information, systems, software developments, methods, designs, analyses, drawings, reports, service marks, trademarks, trade names, logos and all similar or related information (whether patentable or unpatentable, copyrightable, registerable as a
trademark, reduced to writing, or otherwise) which relates to the Company’s or any of its Affiliates’ actual or anticipated business, research and development or existing or future products or services and which are conceived, developed or
made by the Executive (whether or not during usual business hours, whether or not by the use of the facilities of the Company or any of its Affiliates, and whether or not alone or in conjunction with any other person) while employed by the Company
(including those conceived, developed or made prior to the Effective Date) together with all patent applications, letters patent, trademark, trade name and service mark applications or registrations, copyrights and reissues thereof that may be
granted for or upon any of the foregoing. All Work Product that the Executive may have discovered, invented or originated during Executive’s employment by the Company or any of its Affiliates prior to the Effective Date or that he may discover,
invent or originate during the Period of Employment or at any time prior to the Severance Date, shall be the exclusive property of the Company and its Affiliates, as applicable, and Executive hereby assigns all of Executive’s right, title and
interest in and to such Work Product to the Company or its applicable Affiliate, including all intellectual property rights therein. Executive shall promptly disclose all Work Product to the Company, shall execute at the request of the Company any
assignments or other documents the Company may deem necessary to protect or perfect its (or any of its Affiliates’, as applicable) rights therein, and shall assist the Company, at the Company’s expense, in obtaining, defending and
enforcing the Company’s (or any of its Affiliates’, as applicable) rights therein. The Executive hereby appoints the Company as Executive’s attorney-in-fact to execute on Executive’s behalf any assignments or other documents
deemed necessary by the Company to protect or perfect the Company, the Company’s (and any of its Affiliates’, as applicable) rights to any Work Product. 
  

	 	6.2	 Restriction on Competition. The Executive acknowledges that, in the course of Executive’s employment with the Company and/or its
Affiliates and their predecessors, he has become familiar, or will become familiar, with the Company’s and its Affiliates’ and their predecessors’ trade secrets and with other Confidential Information concerning the Company, its
Affiliates and their respective predecessors and that Executive’s services have been and will be of special, unique and extraordinary value to the Company and its Affiliates. The Executive agrees that if the Executive were to become employed
by, or 



  

			
		  	  

		  	










	 	 
substantially involved in, the business of a competitor of the Company or any of its Affiliates during the twelve months following the Severance Date, it would be very difficult for the Executive
not to rely on or use the Company’s and its Affiliates’ trade secrets and Confidential Information. Thus, to avoid the inevitable disclosure of the Company’s and its Affiliates’ trade secrets and Confidential Information, and to
protect such trade secrets and Confidential Information and the Company’s and its Affiliates’ relationships and goodwill with customers, during the Period of Employment and for a period of twelve months after the Severance Date, the
Executive will not directly or indirectly through any other Person engage in, enter the employ of, render any services to, have any ownership interest in, nor participate in the financing, operation, management or control of, any Competing Business.
For purposes of this Agreement, the phrase “directly or indirectly through any other Person engage in” shall include, without limitation, any direct or indirect ownership or profit participation interest in such enterprise, whether as an
owner, stockholder, member, partner, joint venturer or otherwise, and shall include any direct or indirect participation in such enterprise as an employee, consultant, director, officer, licensor of technology or otherwise. For purposes of this
Agreement, “Competing Business” means a Person anywhere in the continental United States and elsewhere in the world where the Company and its Affiliates engage in business, or reasonably anticipate engaging in business, on the
Severance Date (the “Restricted Area”) that at any time during the Period of Employment has competed, or at any time during the twelve month period following the Severance Date competes, with the Company or any of its Affiliates in
the provision of travel services, including, without limitation, travel services related to the cruise ship industry (the “Business”). Nothing herein shall prohibit the Executive from being a passive owner of not more than 2% of the
outstanding stock of any class of a corporation which is publicly traded, so long as the Executive has no active participation in the business of such corporation. 



 

	 	6.3	Non-Solicitation of Employees and Consultants. During the Period of Employment and for a period of twenty four months after the Severance Date, the
Executive will not directly or indirectly through any other Person (i) induce or attempt to induce any employee or independent contractor of the Company or any Affiliate of the Company to leave the employ or service, as applicable, of the
Company or such Affiliate, or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company or any such Affiliate, on the one hand, and any employee or independent contractor thereof, on the other hand, or (ii) hire any person who was an
employee of the Company or any Affiliate of the Company until twelve months after such individual’s employment relationship with the Company or such Affiliate has been terminated. 


 

	 	6.4	 Non-Solicitation of Customers. During the Period of Employment and for a period of twenty four months after the Severance Date, the
Executive will not directly or indirectly through any other Person influence or attempt to influence customers, vendors, suppliers, licensors, lessors, joint venturers, associates, consultants, agents, or partners of the Company or any Affiliate of
the Company to divert their business away from the Company or such Affiliate, and the 



  

			
		  	  

		  	










	 	 
Executive will not otherwise interfere with, disrupt or attempt to disrupt the business relationships, contractual or otherwise, between the Company or any Affiliate of the Company, on the one
hand, and any of its or their customers, suppliers, vendors, lessors, licensors, joint venturers, associates, officers, employees, consultants, managers, partners, members or investors, on the other hand. 



 

	 	6.5	Understanding of Covenants. The Executive represents that he (i) is familiar with and has carefully considered the foregoing covenants set forth in
this Section 6 (together, the “Restrictive Covenants”), (ii) is fully aware of Executive’s obligations hereunder, (iii) agrees to the reasonableness of the length of time, scope and geographic coverage, as
applicable, of the Restrictive Covenants, (iv) agrees that the Company and its Affiliates currently conduct business throughout the continental United States and the rest of the world, (v) agrees that the Restrictive Covenants are
necessary to protect the Company’s and its Affiliates’ confidential and proprietary information, good will, stable workforce, and customer relations, and (vi) agrees that the Restrictive Covenants will continue in effect for the
applicable periods set forth above in this Section 6 regardless of whether the Executive is then entitled to receive severance pay or benefits from the Company. The Executive understands that the Restrictive Covenants may limit Executive’s
ability to earn a livelihood in a business similar to the Business of the Company and any of its Affiliates, but he nevertheless believes that he has received and will receive sufficient consideration and other benefits as an employee of the Company
and as otherwise provided hereunder or as described in the recitals hereto to clearly justify such restrictions which, in any event (given Executive’s education, skills and ability), the Executive does not believe would prevent Executive from
otherwise earning a living. The Executive agrees that the Restrictive Covenants do not confer a benefit upon the Company disproportionate to the detriment of the Executive. 


 

	 	6.6	Enforcement. The Executive agrees that the Executive’s services are unique and that he has access to Confidential Information and Work Product.
Accordingly, without limiting the generality of Section 17, the Executive agrees that a breach by the Executive of any of the covenants in this Section 6 would cause immediate and irreparable harm to the Company that would be difficult or
impossible to measure, and that damages to the Company for any such injury would therefore be an inadequate remedy for any such breach. Therefore, the Executive agrees that in the event of any breach or threatened breach of any provision of this
Section 6, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to and without limitation upon all other remedies the Company may have under this Agreement, at law or otherwise, to obtain specific performance, injunctive relief and/or other appropriate
relief (without posting any bond or deposit) in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions of this Section 6. The Executive further agrees that the applicable period of time any Restrictive Covenant is in effect following the
Severance Date, as determined pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 6, shall be extended by the same amount of time that Executive is in breach of any Restrictive Covenant. 


  

			
		  	  

		  	










	7.	Withholding Taxes. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, the Company may withhold (or cause there to be withheld, as the case may be) from
any amounts otherwise due or payable under or pursuant to this Agreement such federal, state and local income, employment, or other taxes as may be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation. 


 

	8.	Successors and Assigns. 

 (a) This Agreement is personal to the Executive and without the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by the Executive otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s legal representatives. 

(b) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns. Without limiting the
generality of the preceding sentence, the Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume expressly
and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as
hereinbefore defined and any successor or assignee, as applicable, which assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement by operation of law or otherwise. 
  

	9.	Number and Gender; Examples. Where the context requires, the singular shall include the plural, the plural shall include the singular, and any gender
shall include all other genders. Where specific language is used to clarify by example a general statement contained herein, such specific language shall not be deemed to modify, limit or restrict in any manner the construction of the general
statement to which it relates. 

  

	10.	Section Headings. The section headings of, and titles of paragraphs and subparagraphs contained in, this Agreement are for the purpose of convenience
only, and they neither form a part of this Agreement nor are they to be used in the construction or interpretation thereof. 

  

	11.	Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CHOICE
OF LAW OR CONFLICTING PROVISION OR RULE (WHETHER OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION) THAT WOULD CAUSE THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF FLORIDA TO BE APPLIED. IN FURTHERANCE OF THE FOREGOING, THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE
STATE OF FLORIDA WILL CONTROL THE INTERPRETATION AND CONSTRUCTION OF THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF UNDER SUCH JURISDICTION’S CHOICE OF LAW OR CONFLICT OF LAW ANALYSIS, THE SUBSTANTIVE LAW OF SOME OTHER JURISDICTION WOULD ORDINARILY APPLY.



  

			
		  	  

		  	










	12.	Severability. It is the desire and intent of the parties hereto that the provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under
the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. Accordingly, if any particular provision of this Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable
under any present or future law, and if the rights and obligations of any party under this Agreement will not be materially and adversely affected thereby, such provision, as to such jurisdiction, shall be ineffective, without invalidating the
remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of this Agreement are declared to be severable; furthermore, in lieu of such invalid or
unenforceable provision there will be added automatically as a part of this Agreement, a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such
provision could be more narrowly drawn (as to geographic scope, period of duration or otherwise) so as not to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in such jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be so narrowly drawn, without invalidating
the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

  

	13.	Entire Agreement; Legal Effect. This Agreement embodies the entire agreement of the parties hereto respecting the matters within its scope. This Agreement
supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements of the parties hereto that directly or indirectly bear upon the subject matter hereof. Any prior negotiations, correspondence, agreements, proposals or understandings relating to the subject matter
hereof shall be deemed to have been merged into this Agreement, and to the extent inconsistent herewith, such negotiations, correspondence, agreements, proposals, or understandings shall be deemed to be of no force or effect. There are no
representations, warranties, or agreements, whether express or implied, or oral or written, with respect to the subject matter hereof, except as expressly set forth herein. 


 

	14.	Modifications. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or changed (in whole or in part), except by a formal, definitive written agreement expressly
referring to this Agreement, which agreement is executed by both of the parties hereto. 

  

	15.	Waiver. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of a party to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of the same or of any right, remedy, power or privilege, nor shall any waiver of any right, remedy, power or
privilege with respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any other occurrence. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the party asserted to have
granted such waiver. 


  

			
		  	  

		  	










	16.	Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING
OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT. 

  

	17.	Remedies. Each of the parties to this Agreement and any such person or entity granted rights hereunder whether or not such person or entity is a signatory
hereto shall be entitled to enforce its rights under this Agreement specifically to recover damages and costs for any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights existing in its favor. The parties hereto agree and
acknowledge that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement and that each party may in its sole discretion apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction for specific performance,
injunctive relief and/or other appropriate equitable relief (without posting any bond or deposit) in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions of this Agreement. Each party shall be responsible for paying its own attorneys’
fees, costs and other expenses pertaining to any such legal proceeding and enforcement regardless of whether an award or finding or any judgment or verdict thereon is entered against either party. 


 

	18.	Notices. Any notice provided for in this Agreement must be in writing and must be either personally delivered, transmitted via telecopier, mailed by first
class mail (postage prepaid and return receipt requested) or sent by reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid) to the recipient at the address below indicated or at such other address or to the attention of such other person as the
recipient party has specified by prior written notice to the sending party. Notices will be deemed to have been given hereunder and received when delivered personally, when received if transmitted via telecopier, five days after deposit in the U.S.
mail and one day after deposit with a reputable overnight courier service.

 Exhibit A 

FORM OF RELEASE AGREEMENT 
 This Release Agreement (this “Release Agreement”) is entered into this          day of
                     20    , by and between
[                    ], an individual (“Executive”), and NCL (Bahamas) Ltd., a company organized under the laws of Bermuda
(the “Company”). 
 WHEREAS, Executive has been employed by the Company or one of its subsidiaries; and

 WHEREAS, Executive’s employment by the Company or one of its subsidiaries has terminated and, in connection with
the Executive’s Employment Agreement with the Company, dated as of [                    ] (the “Employment Agreement”),
the Company and Executive desire to enter into this Release Agreement upon the terms set forth herein; 
 NOW, THEREFORE,
in consideration of the covenants undertaken and the releases contained in this Release Agreement, and in consideration of the obligations of the Company to pay severance and other benefits (conditioned upon this Release Agreement) under and
pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Executive and the Company agree as follows: 
 1. Termination of Employment.
Executive’s employment with the Company terminated on [                    ,         ]
(the “Separation Date”). Executive waives any right or claim to reinstatement as an employee of the Company and each of its affiliates. Executive hereby confirms that Executive does not hold any position as an officer, director or
employee with the Company and each of its affiliates. Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive has received all amounts owed for Executive’s regular and usual salary (including, but not limited to, any overtime, bonus, accrued vacation,
commissions, or other wages), reimbursement of expenses, sick pay and usual benefits. 
 2. Release. Executive, on behalf
of Executive, Executive’s descendants, dependents, heirs, executors, administrators, assigns, and successors, and each of them, hereby covenants not to sue and fully releases and discharges the Company and each of its parents, subsidiaries and
affiliates, past and present, as well as its and their trustees, directors, officers, members, managers, partners, agents, attorneys, insurers, employees, stockholders, representatives, assigns, and successors, past and present, and each of them,
hereinafter together and collectively referred to as the “Releasees,” with respect to and from any and all claims, wages, demands, rights, liens, agreements or contracts (written or oral), covenants, actions, suits, causes of
action, obligations, debts, costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees, damages, judgments, orders and liabilities of whatever kind or nature in law, equity or otherwise, whether now known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, and whether or not
concealed or hidden (each, a “Claim”), which he now owns or holds or he has at any time heretofore owned or held or may in the future hold as against any of said Releasees (including, without limitation, any Claim arising out of or
in any way connected with Executive’s service as an officer, director, employee, member or manager of any Releasee, Executive’s separation from Executive’s position as an officer, director, employee, manager and/or member, as
applicable, of any Releasee, or any other 

  

			
		  	  

		  	Initial









 
transactions, occurrences, acts or omissions or any loss, damage or injury whatever), whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, resulting from any act or omission by or on the part of
said Releasees, or any of them, committed or omitted prior to the date of this Release Agreement including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Claim under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Age Discrimination in
Employment Act of 1967, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, or any other federal, state or local law, regulation, or ordinance, or any Claim for severance pay, equity compensation, bonus, sick leave,
holiday pay, vacation pay, life insurance, health or medical insurance or any other fringe benefit, workers’ compensation or disability (the “Release”); provided, however, that the foregoing Release does not apply to any
obligation of the Company to Executive pursuant to any of the following: (1) any equity-based awards previously granted by the Company or its affiliates to Executive, to the extent that such awards continue after the termination of
Executive’s employment with the Company in accordance with the applicable terms of such awards (and subject to any limited period in which to exercise such awards following such termination of employment); (2) any right to indemnification
that Executive may have pursuant to the Bylaws of the Company, its Articles of Incorporation or under any written indemnification agreement with the Company (or any corresponding provision of any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company) or applicable
state law with respect to any loss, damages or expenses (including but not limited to attorneys’ fees to the extent otherwise provided) that Executive may in the future incur with respect to Executive’s service as an employee, officer or
director of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates; (3) with respect to any rights that Executive may have to insurance coverage for such losses, damages or expenses under any Company (or subsidiary or affiliate) directors and
officers liability insurance policy; (4) any rights to continued medical or dental coverage that Executive may have under COBRA (or similar applicable state law); (5) any rights to the severance and other benefits payable under
Section 5.3 of the Employment Agreement in accordance with the terms of the Employment Agreement; or (6) any rights to payment of benefits that Executive may have under a retirement plan sponsored or maintained by the Company or its

and agrees that he has received any and all leave and other benefits that he has been and is entitled to pursuant to the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993. 
 3. ADEA Waiver. Executive expressly acknowledges and agrees that by entering into this Release Agreement, Executive is waiving any and all rights or Claims that he may have arising under the Age
Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (the “ADEA”), which have arisen on or before the date of execution of this Release Agreement. Executive further expressly acknowledges and agrees that: 

A. In return for this Release Agreement, the Executive will receive consideration beyond that which the Executive was
already entitled to receive before entering into this Release Agreement; 
 B. Executive is hereby advised in
writing by this Release Agreement to consult with an attorney before signing this Release Agreement; 

  

			
		  	  

		  	









 C. Executive has voluntarily chosen to enter into this Release Agreement and
has not been forced or pressured in any way to sign it; 
 D. Executive was given a copy of this Release
Agreement on [                    , 20    ] and informed that he had [twenty one (21)/forty five
(45)] days within which to consider this Release Agreement and that if he wished to execute this Release Agreement prior to expiration of such [21-day/45-day] period, he should execute the Endorsement attached hereto;

 E. Executive was informed that he had seven (7) days following the date of execution of this Release
Agreement in which to revoke this Release Agreement, and this Release Agreement will become null and void if Executive elects revocation during that time. Any revocation must be in writing and must be received by the Company during the seven-day
revocation period. In the event that Executive exercises Executive’s right of revocation, neither the Company nor Executive will have any obligations under this Release Agreement; 

F. Nothing in this Release Agreement prevents or precludes Executive from challenging or seeking a determination in good
faith of the validity of this waiver under the ADEA, nor does it impose any condition precedent, penalties or costs from doing so, unless specifically authorized by federal law. 

4. No Transferred Claims. Executive warrants and represents that the Executive has not heretofore assigned or transferred to any
person not a party to this Release Agreement any released matter or any part or portion thereof and he shall defend, indemnify and hold the Company and each of its affiliates harmless from and against any claim (including the payment of
attorneys’ fees and costs actually incurred whether or not litigation is commenced) based on or in connection with or arising out of any such assignment or transfer made, purported or claimed. 

5. Severability. It is the desire and intent of the parties hereto that the provisions of this Release Agreement be enforced to
the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. Accordingly, if any particular provision of this Release Agreement shall be adjudicated by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable under any present or future law, such provision, as to such jurisdiction, shall be ineffective, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Release Agreement or affecting the validity
or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction; furthermore, in lieu of such invalid or unenforceable provision there will be added automatically as a part of this Release Agreement, a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar
in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such provision could be more narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in such jurisdiction, it shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be so narrowly drawn, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Release Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

  

			
		  	  

		  	









 6. Counterparts. This Release Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts,
each of which is deemed to be an original and all of which taken together constitute one and the same agreement. 
 7.
Successors. This Release Agreement is personal to Executive and shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, be assignable by Executive. This Release Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and
its respective successors and assigns and any such successor or assignee shall be deemed substituted for the Company under the terms of this Release Agreement for all purposes. As used herein, “successor” and “assignee” shall
include any person, firm, corporation or other business entity which at any time, whether by purchase, merger, acquisition of assets, or otherwise, directly or indirectly acquires the ownership of the Company, acquires all or substantially all of
the Company’s assets, or to which the Company assigns this Release Agreement by operation of law or otherwise. 
 8.
Governing Law. THIS RELEASE AGREEMENT WILL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH UNITED STATES FEDERAL LAW AND, TO THE EXTENT NOT PREEMPTED BY UNITED STATES FEDERAL LAW, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY
CHOICE OF LAW OR CONFLICTING PROVISION OR RULE (WHETHER OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION) THAT WOULD CAUSE THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN UNITED STATES FEDERAL LAW AND THE LAW OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA TO BE APPLIED. IN
FURTHERANCE OF THE FOREGOING, APPLICABLE FEDERAL LAW AND, TO THE EXTENT NOT PREEMPTED BY APPLICABLE FEDERAL LAW, THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA, WILL CONTROL THE INTERPRETATION AND CONSTRUCTION OF THIS RELEASE AGREEMENT, EVEN IF UNDER SUCH
JURISDICTION’S CHOICE OF LAW OR CONFLICT OF LAW ANALYSIS, THE SUBSTANTIVE LAW OF SOME OTHER JURISDICTION WOULD ORDINARILY APPLY. 
 9. Amendment and Waiver. The provisions of this Release Agreement may be amended and waived only with the prior written consent of the Company and Executive, and no course of conduct or failure or
delay in enforcing the provisions of this Release Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of such provisions or affect the validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Release Agreement or any provision hereof. 

10. Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of this Release Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not
constitute a part of this Release Agreement. 
 11. Construction. Where specific language is used to clarify by example a
general statement contained herein, such specific language shall not be deemed to modify, limit or restrict in any manner the construction of the general statement to which it relates. The language used in this Release Agreement shall be deemed to
be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any party. 

  

			
		  	  

		  	









 12. Nouns and Pronouns. Whenever the context may require, any pronouns used herein
shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns and pronouns shall include the plural and vice-versa.

 FIRST AMENDMENT 

This First Amendment (the “First Amendment”) is executed on this 8th day of February, 2011 by and between Robert Becker
(“EXECUTIVE”) and NCL (Bahamas) Ltd. d/b/a NCL, a Bermuda company, with offices at 7665 Corporate Center Drive, Miami, Florida 333126 (“COMPANY”). 

WITNESSETH: 
 WHEREAS, EXECUTIVE and COMPANY entered into a certain employment agreement dated March 17, 2008 (the “Agreement”); 

WHEREAS, the Parties now desire to amend certain terms of the Agreement as set forth below. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration
acknowledged by each of the parties to be sufficient, the parties agree as follows: 
  

	1.	Section 3.2 entitled Incentive Bonus of the Agreement is amended to read as follows: 

 3.2 Incentive Bonus. The Executive shall be eligible to receive a performance-based incentive bonus for each fiscal year of the Company that occurs during the Period of Employment (“Incentive
Bonus”); provided that the Executive must be employed by the Company at the time the Company pays the Incentive Bonus with respect to any such fiscal year in order to be eligible for an Incentive Bonus with respect to that fiscal year (and, if
Executive is not so employed at such time, in no event shall he have been considered to have “earned” any Incentive Bonus with respect to that fiscal year in question). The Executive shall have the opportunity to earn a guaranteed
Incentive Bonus amount for each fiscal year of the Company during the Period of Employment equal to three hundred and fifty thousand dollars ($350,000). 
 The Executive hereby confirms that the Executive has been paid all amounts due to the Executive pursuant to the terms of the Agreement in respect of any annual incentive bonus or similar incentive or
bonus payment for all fiscal years of the Company ending prior to the date hereof (the “Prior Bonus Payments”). Executive hereby waives any and all rights he may otherwise have to receive any Prior Bonus Payments, and hereby covenants not
to sue and fully releases and discharges the Company and each of its parents, subsidiaries and affiliates with respect to and from any and all claims, demands, rights, actions, suits, or causes with respect to any Prior Bonus Payments. 

Except as amended by this First Amendment, the Agreement remains in full force and effect. In the event of an inconsistency between the terms and
conditions of the Agreement and the First Amendment, the terms and conditions of this First Amendment shall govern and control. 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this First Amendment on the date first written above.
