**FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS**

This Form 10-Q contains both historical and forward-looking statements regarding ABM and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as "ABM," "we," "us," "our," or the "Company"). We make forward-looking statements related to future expectations, estimates, and projections that are uncertain and often contain words such as "anticipate," "believe," "could," "estimate," "expect," "forecast," "intend," "likely," "may," "outlook," "plan," "predict," "should," "target," or other similar words or phrases. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Particular risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to be materially different from those expressed in our forward-looking statements include those listed below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our success depends on our ability to gain profitable business despite competitive market pressures.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our results of operations can be adversely affected by labor shortages, turnover, and labor cost increases.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may not be able to attract and retain qualified personnel and senior management we need to support our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Investments in and changes to our businesses, operating structure, or personnel relating to our strategic initiatives, including the implementation of strategic transformations, enhanced business processes, and technology initiatives, may not have the desired effects on our financial condition and results of operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ability to preserve long-term client relationships is essential to our continued success.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our use of subcontractors or joint venture partners to perform work under customer contracts exposes us to liability and financial risk.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our international business involves risks different from those we face in the United States that could negatively impact our results of operations and financial condition.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Decreases in commercial office space utilization due to hybrid work models and increases in office vacancy rates could adversely affect our financial condition.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Negative changes in general economic conditions, such as recessionary pressures, high interest rates, durable and non-durable goods pricing, changes in energy prices, or changes in consumer goods pricing could reduce the demand for our services and, as a result, reduce our revenue and earnings and adversely affect our financial condition.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may experience breaches of, or disruptions to, our information technology systems or those of our third-party providers or clients, or other compromises of our data that could adversely affect our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our ongoing implementation of new enterprise resource planning ("ERP") and related boundary systems could adversely impact our ability to operate our business, including the timing and amount of working capital needed, and report our financial results.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Acquisitions, divestitures, and other strategic transactions could fail to achieve financial or strategic objectives, disrupt our ongoing business, and adversely impact our results of operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may not realize the growth opportunities and synergies that are anticipated from our acquisition of Iveagh New Opportunities Limited, a company incorporated in Ireland, and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, "WGNSTAR").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We manage our insurable risks through a combination of third-party purchased policies and self-insurance, and we retain a substantial portion of the risk associated with expected losses under these programs, which exposes us to volatility associated with those risks, including the possibility that changes in estimates to our ultimate insurance loss reserves could result in material charges against our earnings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our risk management and safety programs may not have the intended effect of reducing our liability for personal injury or property loss.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Unfavorable developments in our class and representative actions and other lawsuits alleging various claims could cause us to incur substantial liabilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We are subject to extensive legal and regulatory requirements, which could limit our profitability by increasing the costs of legal and regulatory compliance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• A significant number of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements that could expose us to potential liabilities in relation to our participation in multiemployer pension plans, requirements to make contributions to other benefit plans, and the potential for strikes, work slowdowns or similar activities, and union organizing drives.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our business may be materially affected by changes to fiscal and tax policies. Negative or unexpected tax consequences could adversely affect our results of operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Future increases in the level of our borrowings and interest rates could affect our results of operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If we fail to maintain proper and effective internal control over financial reporting in the future, our ability to produce accurate and timely financial statements could be negatively impacted, which could harm our operating results and investor perceptions of our Company and as a result may have a material adverse effect on the value of our common stock.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our business may be negatively impacted by adverse weather conditions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Catastrophic events, disasters, pandemics, and terrorist attacks could disrupt our services.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Actions of activist investors could disrupt our business.

The list of factors above is illustrative and by no means exhaustive. Additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties we face is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2025, and in other reports (including all amendments to those reports) we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

We urge readers to consider these risks and uncertainties in evaluating our forward-looking statements. We caution readers not to place undue reliance upon any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.

**ABM INDUSTRIES INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**(UNAUDITED)**

**1. THE COMPANY AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS** 

ABM is a leading provider of integrated facility services with a mission to make a difference, every person, every day. We are organized into four industry groups and one Technical Solutions segment:

![New Logos JPG.jpg](abm-20260131_g2.jpg)

Through these groups, we offer janitorial, facilities engineering, parking, and specialized mechanical and electrical technical solutions, on a standalone basis or in combination with other services.

**2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

**Basis of Presentation** 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with (i) United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and (ii) the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of our management, our unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes (the "Financial Statements") include all normal recurring adjustments that are necessary for the fair statement of the interim periods presented. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements (and notes thereto) in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2025. Unless otherwise indicated, all references to years are to our fiscal years, which end on October 31.

**Rounding**

We round amounts in the Financial Statements to millions and calculate all percentages and per-share data from the underlying whole-dollar amounts. Thus, certain amounts may not foot, crossfoot, or recalculate based on reported numbers due to rounding.

**Management Reimbursement Revenue by Segment**

We operate certain parking facilities under management reimbursement arrangements. Under these arrangements, we manage the parking facilities for management fees and pass through the revenues and expenses associated with the facilities to the owners. These revenues and expenses are reported in equal amounts as costs reimbursed from our managed locations. Management reimbursement revenue for the three months ended January 31, 2026, and January 31, 2025, was $91.0 million and $82.0 million, respectively.

**Recently Adopted Accounting Standards**

There were no recently adopted accounting standards during the three months ended January 31, 2026.

------

**3. ACQUISITIONS**

**Acquisition of LMC FM**

Effective June 1, 2025, we acquired LMC FM Limited ("LMC"), a Dublin-based facilities services company with coverage across Ireland, for a purchase price of approximately $22.0 million in cash plus the potential of $5.9 million of contingent consideration to be paid in calendar year 2027 upon the retention of the top two customers. The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recognized on the date of acquisition at their estimated fair values, with the excess of the purchase price recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is not deductible for tax reporting purposes. As of January 31, 2026, we recorded preliminary goodwill and intangibles of $14.1 million and $12.9 million, respectively. The total assets acquired, excluding goodwill and intangibles, and liabilities assumed amounted to $19.8 million and $18.9 million, respectively. The purchase price allocation is subject to adjustments within the measurement period not to exceed one year from the acquisition date.

The unaudited Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the three months ended January 31, 2026, include revenues of $13.0 million attributable to LMC, which are included in our Technical Solutions segment.

**Acquisition of RavenVolt**

On September 1, 2022, we completed the acquisition of all of the equity interests of RavenVolt, Inc. ("RavenVolt"), a nationwide provider of advanced turn-key microgrid systems utilized by diversified commercial and industrial customers, national retailers, utilities, and municipalities. RavenVolt's operations are included within our Technical Solutions segment.

The purchase price for the acquisition was approximately $170.0 million in cash at closing plus the potential of post-closing contingent consideration of up to $280.0 million. The estimate of the fair value of the contingent consideration on the date of acquisition was $59.0 million. The post-closing contingent consideration would be payable in cash in calendar years 2024, 2025, and 2026 if RavenVolt's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA"), as defined in the RavenVolt merger agreement, meets or exceeds certain defined targets. In 2024, defined EBITDA targets were not achieved, and as a result, no contingent consideration payment was made in 2024 for calendar year 2023. In the third quarter of 2025, we made a $75.0 million payment for calendar year 2024, of which $16.0 million was classified as an operating cash outflow. At January 31, 2026, the value of the contingent consideration was $32.5 million, and there was no change since October 31, 2025.

**4. REVENUES**

**Disaggregation of Revenues**

We generate revenues under several types of contracts, which are further explained below. Generally, the type of contract is determined by the nature of the services provided by each of our major service lines throughout our reportable segments; therefore, we disaggregate revenues from contracts with customers into major service lines. We have determined that disaggregating revenues into these categories best depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Our reportable segments are B&I, M&D, Aviation, Education, and Technical Solutions, as described in Note 13, "Segment Information."

<sup>(1)</sup> Janitorial arrangements provide a wide range of essential cleaning services for commercial office buildings, airports and other transportation centers, educational institutions, government buildings, health facilities, industrial buildings, retail stores, and stadiums and arenas. These arrangements are often structured as monthly fixed-price, square-foot, cost-plus, and work order contracts.

<sup>(2)</sup> Aviation Services arrangements support airlines and airports with services such as passenger assistance, catering logistics, and airplane cabin maintenance. These arrangements are often structured as monthly fixed-price, cost-plus, transaction price, and hourly contracts.

<sup>(3)</sup> Parking and Transportation arrangements provide parking and transportation services for clients at various locations, including airports and other transportation centers, commercial office buildings, educational institutions, health facilities, hotels, and stadiums and arenas. These arrangements are structured as management reimbursement, leased location, and allowance contracts. Certain of these arrangements are considered service concession agreements and are accounted for under the guidance of Topic 853; accordingly, service concession expense related to these arrangements is recorded as a reduction of the related parking service revenues.

------

<sup>(4)</sup> Operations and Maintenance arrangements provide onsite mechanical engineering and technical services and solutions relating to a broad range of facilities and infrastructure systems that are designed to extend the useful life of facility fixed assets, improve equipment operating efficiencies, reduce energy consumption, lower overall operational costs for clients, and enhance the sustainability of client locations. These arrangements are generally structured as monthly fixed-price, cost-plus, and work order contracts.

<sup>(5)</sup> Building & Energy Solutions arrangements provide custom energy solutions, including microgrid systems installation, electrical, HVAC, lighting, electric vehicle charging station installation, uninterrupted power supply services, and other general maintenance and repair services for clients in the public and private sectors and are generally structured as Energy Savings, Fixed-Price Repair, and Refurbishment contracts. We also franchise certain operations under franchise agreements relating to our Linc Network and TEGG brands pursuant to franchise contracts.

**Contract Types**

We have arrangements under various contract types, as described in Note 2, "Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies," in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2025.

Certain arrangements involve variable consideration (primarily per transaction fees, reimbursable expenses, and sales-based royalties). We do not estimate the variable consideration for these arrangements; rather, we recognize these variable fees as they are earned. Some of our contracts, often related to Airline Services, may also include performance incentives based on variable performance measures that are ascertained exclusively by future performance and therefore cannot be estimated at contract inception and are recognized as revenue once known and mutually agreed upon. We include estimated amounts in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Our estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of our anticipated performance and all information (historical, current, and forecasted) that is reasonably available to us.

The majority of our contracts include performance obligations that are primarily satisfied over time as we provide the related services. These contract types include: monthly fixed-price; square-foot; cost-plus; work orders; transaction-price; hourly; management reimbursement; leased location; allowance; energy savings contracts; and fixed-price repair and refurbishment contracts, as well as our franchise and royalty fee arrangements. We recognize revenue as the services are performed using a measure of progress that is determined by the contract type. Generally, most of our contracts are cancelable by either party without a substantive penalty, and the majority have a notification period of 30 to 90 days.

We primarily account for our performance obligations under the series guidance, using the as-invoiced practical expedient when applicable. We apply the as-invoiced practical expedient to record revenue as the services are provided, given the nature of the services provided and the frequency of billing under the customer contracts. Under this practical expedient, we recognize revenue in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of our performance completed to date and for which we have the right to invoice the customer.

**Remaining Performance Obligations**

At January 31, 2026, performance obligations that were unsatisfied for which we expect to recognize revenue totaled $224.2 million. We expect to recognize revenue on approximately 80% of the remaining performance obligations over the next 12 months, with the remainder recognized thereafter, based on our estimates of project timing.

These amounts exclude variable consideration primarily related to: (i) contracts where we have determined that the contract consists of a series of distinct service periods, and revenues are based on future performance that cannot be estimated at contract inception; (ii) parking contracts where we and the customer share the gross revenues or operating profit for the location; and (iii) contracts where transaction prices include performance incentives that are based on future performance and therefore cannot be estimated at contract inception. For these contract types, we apply the practical expedient that permits exclusion of information about the remaining performance obligations with original expected durations of one year or less.

------

**Contract Balances** 

The timing of revenue recognition, billings, and cash collections results in contract assets and contract liabilities, as further explained below. The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers.

Contract assets primarily consist of billed trade receivables, unbilled trade receivables, and costs incurred in excess of amounts billed. Billed and unbilled trade receivables represent amounts from work completed in which we have an unconditional right to bill our customer. Costs incurred in excess of amounts billed typically arise when the revenue recognized on projects exceeds the amount billed to the customer. These amounts are transferred to billed trade receivables when the rights become unconditional. Contract assets also include the capitalization of incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer, primarily commissions. Commissions expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over a weighted average expected customer relationship period.

Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue and advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized. We generally classify contract liabilities as current since the related contracts are generally for a period of one year or less. Contract liabilities decrease as we recognize revenue from the satisfaction of the related performance obligation.

The following tables present the balances in our contract assets and contract liabilities:

**5**. **RESTRUCTURING AND RELATED COSTS** 

In the fourth quarter of 2025, we implemented a restructuring program (the "Restructuring Program") to further streamline our operations and improve the efficiency of our support functions. This initiative is intended to enhance overall organizational effectiveness and ensure alignment between the Company's cost structure and our strategic growth objectives. We recognized $17.1 million of cumulative restructuring charges under this program through the first quarter of 2026, which includes employee severance, asset impairment charges, and other related costs. We continue to review our overhead and cost structure for additional efficiency opportunities under this program. We expect these actions to be completed in 2026.

| Investments in equity investment<sup>(6)</sup> | 3 | 34.1 | 34.1 |
| Contingent consideration<sup>(7)(8)</sup> | 3 | 38.7 | 38.3 |

---

<sup>(1)</sup> Cash and cash equivalents are stated at nominal value, which equals fair value.

<sup>(2)</sup> Represents restricted deposits that are used to collateralize our insurance obligations and are stated at nominal value, which equals fair value. These insurance deposits are included in "Other noncurrent assets" on the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 8, "Insurance," for further information.

<sup>(3)</sup> Represents investments held in a Rabbi trust associated with one of our deferred compensation plans, which we include in "Other noncurrent assets" on the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the assets held in the funded deferred compensation plan is based on quoted market prices.

<sup>(4)</sup> Represents gross outstanding borrowings under our Amended Credit Facility. Due to variable interest rates, the carrying value of outstanding borrowings under this facility approximates the fair value. See Note 9, "Credit Facility," for further information.

<sup>(5)</sup> Represents interest rate swap derivatives designated as cash flow hedges. The fair values of the interest rate swaps are estimated based on the present value of the difference between expected cash flows calculated at the contracted interest rates and the expected cash flows at current market interest rates using observable benchmarks for the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") forward rates at the end of the period. Our interest rate swap assets and liabilities are included in "Other current assets" and "Other accrued liabilities," respectively, on the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 9, "Credit Facility," for further information. Our interest rate swaps will mature in 2026.

<sup>(6)</sup> During the three months ended October 31, 2025, we purchased a $20.0 million call option to acquire an ownership interest in WGNSTAR. This Acquisition has now been completed—refer to Note 14, "Subsequent Events," for further information. Our investments do not have a readily determinable fair value; therefore, we account for the investments using the measurement alternative under Topic 321 and measure the investments at initial cost plus or minus fair value adjustments if there are observable prices minus impairment, if any.

<sup>(7)</sup> Our contingent consideration payable related to the RavenVolt Acquisition is remeasured at each reporting date, based on significant inputs not observable in the market. The contingent consideration payment related to calendar year 2025, which is expected to be made in May 2026, represents a Level 3 measurement at January 31, 2026, and at October 31, 2025, within the fair value hierarchy. After the acquisition date and until the contingency is resolved, the fair value of contingent consideration payable is adjusted each reporting period based primarily on the expected probability of achievement of the contingency targets, which are subject to our estimate. These changes in fair value are recognized within the "Selling, general and administrative expenses" of the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. See Note 3, "Acquisitions," for further information.

<sup>(8)</sup> The balance at January 31, 2026, and October 31, 2025, also includes the contingent consideration payable in calendar year 2027 related to the LMC Acquisition.

***Non-Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis***

In addition to assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, we are also required to measure certain items at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets can include: goodwill; intangible assets; property, plant and equipment; lease-related ROU assets; and long-lived assets that have been reduced to fair value when they are held for sale. If certain triggering events occur, or if an annual impairment test is required,

------

then we would evaluate these non-financial assets for impairment. If an impairment were to occur, then the asset would be recorded at the estimated fair value, using primarily unobservable Level 3 inputs.

**8. INSURANCE**

We use a combination of insured and self-insurance programs to cover workers' compensation, general liability, automobile liability, property damage, and other insurable risks. For the majority of these insurance programs, we retain the initial $1.0 million to $5.0 million of exposure on a per-occurrence basis, either through deductibles or self-insured retentions. Beyond the retained exposures, we have varying primary policy limits ranging between $1.0 million and $5.0 million per occurrence. To cover general liability and automobile liability losses above these primary limits, we maintain commercial umbrella insurance policies that provide aggregate limits of $200.0 million. Our insurance policies generally cover workers' compensation losses to the full extent of statutory requirements. Additionally, to cover property damage risks above our retained limits, we maintain policies that provide per occurrence limits of $75.0 million. We are also self-insured for certain employee medical and dental plans. We maintain stop-loss insurance for our self-insured medical plan under which we retain up to $0.5 million of exposure on a per-participant, per-year basis with respect to claims.

We maintain our reserves for workers' compensation, general liability, automobile liability, and property damage insurance claims based upon known trends and events and the actuarial estimates of required reserves considering the most recently completed actuarial reports. We use all available information to develop our best estimate of insurance claims reserves as information is obtained. The results of actuarial reviews are used to estimate our insurance rates and insurance reserves.

**Interim Review Performed During 2026**

We review our self-insurance liabilities on a regular basis and adjust our accruals accordingly. Actual claims activity or development may vary from our assumptions and estimates, which may result in material losses or gains. As we obtain additional information that affects the assumptions and estimates used in our reserve liability calculations, we adjust our self-insurance rates and reserves for future periods and, if appropriate, adjust our reserves for claims incurred in prior accounting periods.

During the first quarter of 2026, we performed a review of the majority of our casualty insurance programs that considered changes in claims development and claims payment activity through January 31, 2026. Based on the results of the review, it was determined that there was no adjustment required for our total reserves related to prior years during the three months ended January 31, 2026. There was no adjustment required for total reserves related to prior years during the three months ended January 31, 2025.

<sup>(1)</sup> At January 31, 2026, and October 31, 2025, the weighted average interest rate on all outstanding borrowings, not including letters of credit and swaps, was 5.44% and 5.84%, respectively.

<sup>(2)</sup> At January 31, 2026, we had borrowing capacity of $507.7 million.

<sup>(3)</sup> At January 31, 2026, standby letters of credit amounted to $23.5 million.

On September 1, 2017, we refinanced and replaced our then-existing $800.0 million credit facility with a new senior, secured five-year syndicated credit facility (the "Credit Facility"), consisting of a $900.0 million revolving line of credit (the "Revolver") and an $800.0 million amortizing term loan, both of which matured on September 1, 2022. In accordance with terms of the Credit Facility, the revolver was reduced to $800.0 million on September 1, 2018. The Credit Facility was amended on June 28, 2021, to increase the capacity of the Revolver and term loan to $1.3 billion and $650 million, respectively, and to extend the maturity to June 28, 2026. It was further amended on November 1, 2022, to transition the benchmark interest rate from London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") to Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR").

On February 26, 2025, we amended and restated the Credit Facility (the "Amended Credit Facility"), extending the maturity date to February 26, 2030, and increasing the capacity of the revolving credit facility from $1.3 billion to $1.6 billion and the then-remaining term loan outstanding from $528.1 million to $600.0 million. The Amended Credit Facility provides for the issuance of up to $250.0 million for standby letters of credit and the issuance of up to $100.0 million in swingline advances. The obligations under the Amended Credit Facility are guaranteed by the material, domestic wholly owned subsidiaries of ABM and are secured by a pledge of substantially all of the existing and future property and assets of ABM and the guarantors, including a pledge of the capital stock of the wholly owned domestic subsidiaries held by ABM and the guarantors and 65% of the capital stock of the first-tier foreign subsidiaries held by ABM and the guarantors, in each case subject to exceptions. Additionally, we may repay amounts borrowed under the Amended Credit Facility at any time without penalty.

The Amended Credit Facility contains certain covenants, including a maximum total net leverage ratio of 5.00 to 1.00, a maximum secured net leverage ratio of 4.00 to 1.00, and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 1.50 to 1.00, as well as other financial and non-financial covenants. In the event of a material acquisition, as defined in the Amended Credit Facility, we may elect to increase the maximum total net leverage ratio to 5.50 to 1.00 for a total of four fiscal quarters and increase the maximum secured net leverage ratio to 4.50 to 1.00 for a total of four fiscal quarters. Our borrowing capacity is subject to, and limited by, compliance with the covenants described above. At January 31, 2026, we were in compliance with these covenants.

The Amended Credit Facility also includes customary events of default, including: failure to pay principal, interest, or fees when due; failure to comply with covenants; the occurrence of certain material judgments; and a change in control of the Company. If certain events of default occur, including certain cross-defaults, insolvency, change in control, or violation of specific covenants, then the lenders can terminate or suspend our access to the Amended Credit Facility, declare all amounts outstanding (including all accrued interest and unpaid fees) to be immediately due and payable, and require that we cash collateralize the outstanding standby letters of credit.

------

We incurred deferred financing costs of $8.0 million in conjunction with the execution of the Amended Credit Facility and carried over $2.9 million of unamortized deferred financing costs from initial execution and previous amendments of the Credit Facility. Total deferred financing costs of $10.9 million, consisting of $3.0 million related to the term loan and $7.9 million related to the Revolver, are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the Amended Credit Facility.

On February 3, 2026, the Amended Credit Facility was amended to provide for a new incremental term loan in an aggregate principal amount equal to $255.0 million (the "First Incremental Term Loan"). Refer to Note 14, "Subsequent Events," for further information.

**Long-Term Debt Maturities**

During the three months ended January 31, 2026, we made principal payments under the term loan of $7.5 million. As of January 31, 2026, the following principal payments are required under the Amended Credit Facility:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| *<u>(in millions)</u>* | **2026** | **2027** | **2028** | **2029** | **2030** |
| Debt maturities | $22.5 | $30.0 | $30.0 | $30.0 | $1520.0 |

---

**Interest Rate Swaps**

We utilize interest rate swap agreements to fix the variable interest rates on portions of our debt. The purpose of using these derivatives is to reduce our exposure to the interest rate risk associated with variable borrowings. Under these agreements, we typically pay a fixed interest rate in exchange for a SOFR-based variable interest rate on a given notional amount. All of our interest rate swaps are designated and accounted for as cash flow hedges. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are reported as a component of other comprehensive income and are reclassified into earnings in the period or periods in which the hedged transaction affects earnings. For information regarding the valuation of our interest rate swaps, see Note 7, "Fair Value of Financial Instruments."

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Notional Amount** | **Fixed Interest Rate** | **Effective Date** | **Maturity Date** |
| $100.0 million | 1.72% | February 9, 2022 | June 28, 2026 |
| $150.0 million | 1.85% | February 25, 2022 | June 28, 2026 |
| $100.0 million | 2.88% | May 4, 2022 | June 28, 2026 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; $86.9 million | 2.83% | July 7, 2022 | June 28, 2026 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; $13.1 million | 2.79% | July 18, 2022 | June 28, 2026 |
| $170.0 million | 3.81% | November 1, 2022 | June 28, 2026 |

---

At January 31, 2026, and October 31, 2025, amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCL") for interest rate swaps were a gain of $1.0 million, net of taxes of $1.4 million, and a gain of $2.4 million, net of taxes of $1.9 million, respectively. At January 31, 2026, the total amount expected to be reclassified from AOCL to earnings during the next 12 months is a gain of $1.7 million, net of taxes of $0.6 million.

------

**10. COMMON STOCK** 

Effective September 3, 2025, our Board of Directors expanded our existing share repurchase program by an additional $150.0 million of our common stock. Share repurchases may take place on the open market or otherwise, and all or part of the repurchases may be made pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing of repurchases is at our discretion and will depend upon several factors, including market and business conditions, future cash flows, share price, share availability, and other factors. Repurchased shares are retired and returned to an authorized but unissued status. The repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice.

***Repurchase Activity***

We repurchased shares under the share repurchase program during the three months ended January 31, 2026, as summarized below. At January 31, 2026, authorization for $92.0 million of repurchases remained under our share repurchase program.

|:---|:---|:---|
| *(in millions, except per share amounts)* | **Three Months Ended<br>January 31, 2026** | **Three Months Ended January 31, 2025** |
| Total number of shares purchased | 2.07 | 0.42 |
| Average price paid per share<sup>(1)</sup> | $44.13 | $51.23 |
| Total cash paid for share repurchases<sup>(1)</sup> | $91.1 | $21.3 |

---

<sup>(1)</sup> Average price paid per share and total cash paid for share repurchases does not include any excise tax for share repurchases as part of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.

**11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES** 

**Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds**

We use letters of credit and surety bonds to secure certain commitments related to insurance programs and for other purposes. As of January 31, 2026, these letters of credit totaled $23.5 million and surety bonds and surety-backed letters of credit totaled $1,061.8 million.

**Guarantees**

In some instances, we offer clients guaranteed energy savings under certain energy savings contracts. At January 31, 2026, total guarantees were $201.2 million and extend through 2045. We include the estimated costs of guarantees in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Our estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of our anticipated performance and all information (historical, current, and forecasted) that is reasonably available to us. Historically, we have not incurred any material losses in connection with these guarantees.

**Sales Taxes**

We collect sales tax from clients and remit those collections to the applicable states. In some cases when clients fail to pay their invoices, including the amount of any sales tax that we paid on their behalf, we may be entitled to seek a refund of that amount of sales tax from the applicable state.

Sales tax laws and regulations enacted by the various states are subject to interpretation, and our compliance with such laws is routinely subject to audit and review by such states. Audit risk is concentrated in several states that are conducting ongoing audits. The outcomes of ongoing and any future audits and changes in the states' interpretation of the sales tax laws and regulations could materially adversely impact our results of operations**.**

------

**Legal Matters**

We are a party to a number of lawsuits, claims, and proceedings incident to the operation of our business, including those pertaining to labor and employment, contracts, personal injury, and other matters, some of which allege substantial monetary damages. Some of these actions may be brought as class actions on behalf of a class or purported class of employees.

At January 31, 2026, the total amount accrued for probable litigation losses where a reasonable estimate of the loss could be made was $9.2 million. We do not accrue for contingent losses that, in our judgment, are considered to be reasonably possible but not probable. The estimation of reasonably possible losses also requires the analysis of multiple possible outcomes that often depend on judgments about potential actions by third parties. Our management currently estimates the range of loss for all reasonably possible losses for which a reasonable estimate of the loss can be made is between zero and $13.3 million. Factors underlying this estimated range of loss may change from time to time, and actual results may vary significantly from this estimate.

Litigation outcomes are difficult to predict, and the estimation of probable losses requires the analysis of multiple possible outcomes that often depend on judgments about potential actions by third parties. If one or more matters are resolved in a particular period in an amount in excess of or in a manner different than what we anticipated, this could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In some cases, although a loss is probable or reasonably possible, we cannot reasonably estimate the maximum potential losses for probable matters or the range of losses for reasonably possible matters. Therefore, our accrual for probable losses and our estimated range of loss for reasonably possible losses do not represent our maximum possible exposure.

In determining whether to include any particular lawsuit or other proceeding in our disclosure, we consider both quantitative and qualitative factors. These factors include, but are not limited to: the amount of damages and the nature of any other relief sought in the proceeding; if such damages and other relief are specified, our view of the merits of the claims; whether the action is or purports to be a class action, and our view of the likelihood that a class will be certified by the court; the jurisdiction in which the proceeding is pending; and the potential impact of the proceeding on our reputation.

We are currently not a party to any material legal proceedings, and we are not aware of filings of any pending or contemplated litigation, claims, or assessments. There can be no assurance that future legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business or otherwise will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

**12. INCOME TAXES** 

Our quarterly tax provision is calculated using an estimated annual effective tax rate that is adjusted for discrete items occurring during the period to arrive at our effective tax rate. During the three months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, we had effective tax rates of 25.6% and 21.4%, respectively. The difference between the estimated annual effective tax rate before discrete items and statutory rate is primarily related to state income taxes, non-deductible compensation, and tax credits.

Our effective tax rate for the three months ended January 31, 2026, was reduced by discrete items, primarily share based compensation. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended January 31, 2025, was reduced by discrete items, primarily return to provision adjustments related to our non-U.S. operations.

The Work Opportunity Tax Credit ("WOTC") and Federal Empowerment Zone ("FEZ") credit are federal tax credits available to employers for hiring individuals from certain targeted groups. The Company has historically benefited from these tax credits, which expired on December 31, 2025. As of January 31, 2026, the credits have not been renewed, and our effective tax rate for the quarter only includes a benefit for those employees who started work before December 31, 2025.

On July 4, 2025, the United States enacted the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA"), which contains a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses. We do not anticipate a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

------

The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development ("OECD") Pillar Two Model Rules established a minimum global effective tax rate of 15% on country-by-country profits of large multinational companies. European Union member states along with many other countries have adopted or expect to adopt the OECD Pillar Two Model effective January 1, 2024, or thereafter. The OECD and other countries continue to publish guidelines and legislation that include transition and safe harbor rules. We continue to monitor new legislative changes and assess the global impact of the Pillar Two Model Rules. Based on our initial assessment, Pillar Two should not have a material impact to the Company's income tax provision.

We plan to reinvest our foreign earnings to fund future non-U.S. growth and expansion, and we do not anticipate remitting such earnings to the United States.

---

The accounting policies for our segments are the same as those disclosed within our significant accounting policies in Note 2, "Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies." Our management evaluates the performance of each reportable segment based on its respective operating profit results, which include the allocation of certain centrally incurred costs. Corporate expenses not allocated to segments include certain CEO and other finance and human resource departmental expenses, certain information technology costs, share-based compensation, certain legal costs and settlements, restructuring and related costs, certain actuarial adjustments to self-insurance reserves, and direct acquisition costs.

As of January 31, 2026, the Company's Chief Operating Decision Makers (the "CODMs"), consisting of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Operating Officer, evaluate the performance of ABM's operating segments and allocate resources based on segment operating profit and revenue. These metrics are regularly reviewed as part of ABM's internal reporting package.

Segment operating profits are used to allocate resources, including investment spending, primarily as part of the annual budget process. On a monthly basis, the CODMs review budget-to-actual variances to assess performance, monitor trends, and compare results across segments. Segment performance is also considered in the determination of incentive compensation for segment leadership. Segment asset information is not provided to the CODMs, nor is it used in evaluating segment performance or making resource allocation decisions. Accordingly, segment assets are not disclosed in this note.

**14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS**

**Subsequent Amendment of Amended Credit Facility and Closing of WGNSTAR Acquisition** 

On February 3, 2026, we incurred $255.0 million of the First Incremental Term Loan, pursuant to an amendment to the Amended Credit Facility. The initial applicable rate with respect to the First Incremental Term Loan shall be Term SOFR plus 2.0% per annum. Beginning on the first adjustment date occurring after the delivery of a compliance certificate for the fiscal quarter of the Company ending April 30, 2026, the applicable rate with respect to the First Incremental Term Loan will be determined pursuant to the applicable pricing grid set forth in the Amended Credit Facility. The other terms and conditions that apply to the First Incremental Term Loan are substantially the same as the terms and conditions that apply to the other term loans outstanding under the Amended Credit Facility.

On February 4, 2026, we consummated the acquisition of WGNSTAR for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $264 million in cash (subject to customary working capital adjustments). We financed the acquisition with borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility. WGNSTAR is a provider of managed workforce solutions and equipment support services for the semiconductor and high-technology industries across the U.S. and Ireland. The acquisition will be accounted for under the acquisition method. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recognized on the date of acquisition at their estimated fair values, with the excess of the purchase price recorded as goodwill. The purchase price allocation will be subject to adjustments within the measurement period not to exceed one year from the acquisition date.

**ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.**

The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") is intended to facilitate an understanding of the results of operations and financial condition of ABM.

**Business Overview**

ABM is a leading provider of integrated facility solutions, customized by industry, with a mission to **make a difference, every person, every day.** 

In 2021, we launched our multiyear **ELEVATE** transformation and systems modernization plan to strengthen our industry leadership, enhance our core service capabilities, and modernize our systems, processes, and tools — with a goal of advancing data integrity, technology enablement, and operational consistency to support long-term growth and value creation.

As this work progresses, ABM is entering a phase of turning modernization efforts into measurable performance improvements across our enterprise.

Looking ahead, ABM will continue to advance this transformation and modernization program where appropriate while optimizing systems and processes company-wide that we expect to drive performance, strengthen client trust, and create long-term value for shareholders.

**Restructuring Program**

In the fourth quarter of 2025, we launched a Restructuring Program to further streamline our operations and improve the efficiency of our support functions. This initiative is intended to enhance overall organizational effectiveness and ensure alignment between our cost structure and strategic growth objectives. Once fully implemented in 2026, this program is expected to deliver approximately $35.0 million of annualized cost savings. We recognized $17.1 million of cumulative restructuring charges under this program through the first quarter of 2026. The range of the remaining costs to be incurred related to the Restructuring Program cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

We will continue to review our overhead and cost structure for efficiency opportunities under this program.

**Key Financial Highlights**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Revenues increased by $128.6 million, or 6.1%, to $2,243.5 million during the three months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to the prior year period. Revenue growth was comprised of organic growth of 5.5% and acquisition growth of 0.6%. The organic revenue growth was due to net new business and expansion of business with existing customers among all our industry groups, as well as higher project and recurring services revenues associated with mission-critical infrastructure and data center solutions within Technical Solutions. Acquisition growth was driven by a $13.0 million revenue increase from the LMC Acquisition.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We had a decrease in operating profit of $2.9 million, to $74.7 million, during the three months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily attributed to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ restructuring charges incurred during the first quarter of 2026 under our Restructuring Program; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ service mix and timing of the completion of certain projects due to temporary weather related delays in Technical Solutions.

The decrease was partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ operational efficiencies, including cost savings realized from initiatives implemented under our Restructuring Program.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our effective tax rates for the three months ended January 31, 2026, and January 31, 2025, were 25.6% and 21.4%, respectively. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended January 31, 2026, was reduced by discrete items, primarily share based compensation. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended January 31, 2025, was reduced by discrete items, primarily return to provision adjustments related to our non-U.S. operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net cash provided by operating activities was $62.0 million for the three months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to cash used in operating activities of $106.2 million for the three months ended January 31, 2025. The $168.2 million improvement was primarily driven by favorable changes in working capital, including improved cash collections and timing of payments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Dividends of $17.3 million were paid to shareholders, and dividends totaling $0.290 per common share were declared during the three months ended January 31, 2026. Additionally, we repurchased 2.1 million shares for $91.1 million, excluding excise taxes, during the three months ended January 31, 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• At January 31, 2026, total outstanding borrowings under our Amended Credit Facility were $1.6 billion. At January 31, 2026, we had up to $507.7 million of borrowing capacity.

***Revenues*** 

Revenues increased by $128.6 million, or 6.1%, to $2,243.5 million during the three months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to the prior year period. Revenue growth was comprised of organic growth of 5.5% and acquisition growth of 0.6%. The organic revenue growth was due to net new business and expansion of business with existing customers among all our industry groups, as well as higher project and recurring services revenues associated with mission-critical infrastructure and data center solutions within Technical Solutions. Acquisition growth was driven by a $13.0 million revenue increase from the LMC Acquisition.

***Operating Expenses***

Operating expenses increased by $128.4 million, or 6.9%, to $1,983.5 million during the three months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to the prior year period. Gross margin decreased by 69 bps to 11.6% in the three months ended January 31, 2026, from 12.3% in the prior year period. The decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by strategic pricing decisions for contract rebids within B&I, service mix within M&D and Technical Solutions, and weather-related disruptions in Aviation and Technical Solutions. This was partially offset by operational efficiencies achieved through our Restructuring Program as well as positive operational impacts from weather-related disruptions within Education.

***Selling, General and Administrative Expenses***

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $0.8 million, or 0.4%, to $169.8 million during the three months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to the prior year period. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $2.5 million increase in costs associated with systems' go-live.

The increase was partially offset by:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $2.4 million decrease in accruals for potential legal settlements.

***Amortization of Intangible Assets***

Amortization of intangible assets decreased by $1.4 million, or 10.0%, to $11.9 million during the three months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily attributable to certain intangibles acquired as part of the Able and GCA acquisitions.

***Interest Expense***

Interest expense increased by $1.1 million, or 4.9%, to $24.0 million during the three months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to the prior year period, and was driven by higher borrowings from our Amended Credit Facility to fund working capital requirements.

***Income Taxes from Operations***

Our effective tax rates from income on operations for the three months ended January 31, 2026, and January 31, 2025, were 25.6% and 21.4%, respectively, resulting in provisions for taxes of $13.4 million and $11.9 million, respectively.

Our effective tax rate for the three months ended January 31, 2026, was reduced by discrete items, primarily share based compensation. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended January 31, 2025, was reduced by discrete items, primarily return to provision adjustments related to our non-U.S. operations.

The WOTC and FEZ credit are federal tax credits available to employers for hiring individuals from certain targeted groups. We have historically benefited from these credits, and they expired on December 31, 2025. As of January 31, 2026, the credits have not been renewed and our effective tax rate for the three months ended January 31, 2026, includes a benefit only for those employees who started work before December 31, 2025. Any extension or renewal of the WOTC and FEZ credit is subject to future legislative action by Congress and would occur retroactively.

***Interest Rate Swaps***

We had a loss of $1.9 million on interest rate swaps during the three months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to a loss of $1.1 million during the three months ended January 31, 2025, primarily due to underlying changes in the fair value of our interest rate swaps.

***Foreign Currency Translation***

We had a foreign currency translation gain of $9.5 million during the three months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to a foreign currency translation loss of $7.6 million during the three months ended January 31, 2025. This change was due to fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar ("USD") and the British pound sterling ("GBP"). Future gains and losses on foreign currency translation will be dependent upon changes in the relative value of foreign currencies to the USD and the extent of our foreign assets and liabilities.

B&I revenues increased by $42.2 million, or 4.1%, to $1,065.1 million during the three months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to the prior year period. The revenue increase was primarily driven by client expansions domestically and new client wins internationally as well as higher volumes of work orders across all geographies. This includes strategic pricing decisions for contract rebids and proactive extensions. Management reimbursement revenues for this segment totaled $73.8 million and $71.3 million for the three months ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Operating profit increased by $0.3 million, or 0.4%, to $79.7 million during the three months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to the prior year period. Operating profit margin decreased by 28 bps to 7.5% in the three months ended January 31, 2026, from 7.8% in the prior year period. The decrease in operating profit margin was primarily driven by strategic pricing decisions for contract rebids and proactive extensions, and investments made in the second half of 2025 to hire certain sales expertise to support future growth, partially offset by operational efficiencies achieved through our Restructuring Program.

Corporate expenses decreased by $1.3 million, or 1.6%, to $81.9 million during the three months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to the prior year period. The decrease in corporate expenses was primarily attributable to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $4.8 million decrease in accruals for potential legal settlements.

The decrease was partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a $3.7 million increase in restructuring charges under our Restructuring Program.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

Our primary sources of liquidity are operating cash flows and borrowing capacity under our Amended Credit Facility. We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our short- and long-term cash requirements. As such, we project our anticipated cash requirements as well as cash flows generated from operating activities to meet those needs.

In addition to normal working capital requirements, we anticipate that our short- and long-term cash requirements will include funding legal settlements, insurance claims, dividend payments, capital expenditures, share repurchases, mandatory loan repayments, contingent consideration payments from acquisitions, and systems and technology transformation initiatives under our **ELEVATE** strategy. We anticipate long-term cash uses may also include strategic acquisitions. On a long-term basis, we will continue to rely on our Amended Credit Facility for any long-term funding not provided by operating cash flows.

We believe that our operating cash flows and borrowing capacity under our Amended Credit Facility are sufficient to fund our cash requirements for the next 12 months. In the event that our plans change or our cash requirements are greater than we anticipate, we may need to access the capital markets to finance future cash requirements. However, there can be no assurance that such financing will be available to us should we need it or, if available, that the terms will be satisfactory to us and not dilutive to existing shareholders.

***Credit Facility***

On September 1, 2017, we refinanced and replaced our then-existing $800.0 million credit facility with a new senior, secured five-year syndicated credit facility, consisting of a $900.0 million revolver and an $800.0 million amortizing term loan. In accordance with terms of the Credit Facility, the revolver was reduced to $800.0 million on September 1, 2018. On February 26, 2025, we amended and restated the Credit Facility (the "Amended Credit Facility"), extending the maturity date to February 26, 2030, and increasing the capacity of the revolving credit facility from $1.3 billion to $1.6 billion and the then-remaining term loan outstanding from $528.1 million to $600.0 million. The Amended Credit Facility provides for the issuance of up to $250.0 million for standby letters of credit and the issuance of up to $100.0 million in swingline advances.

The Amended Credit Facility contains certain covenants, including a maximum total net leverage ratio of 5.00 to 1.00, a maximum secured net leverage ratio of 4.00 to 1.00, and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 1.50 to 1.00, as well as other financial and non-financial covenants. In the event of a material acquisition, as defined in the Amended Credit Facility, we may elect to increase the maximum total net leverage ratio to 5.50 to 1.00 for a total of four fiscal quarters and increase the maximum secured net leverage ratio to 4.50 to 1.00 for a total of four fiscal quarters. Our borrowing capacity is subject to, and limited by, compliance with the covenants described above. At January 31, 2026, we were in compliance with these covenants.

During the three months ended January 31, 2026, we made principal payments under the term loan of $7.5 million. At January 31, 2026, the total outstanding borrowings under our Amended Credit Facility in the form of cash borrowings and standby letters of credit were $1.6 billion and $23.5 million, respectively, and our weighted average interest rate on all outstanding borrowings, excluding letters of credit, was 5.44%. At January 31, 2026, we had up to $507.7 million of borrowing capacity.

We plan to reinvest our foreign earnings to fund future non-U.S. growth and expansion, and we do not anticipate remitting such earnings to the United States.

***IFM Insurance Company***

IFM Assurance Company ("IFM") is a wholly owned captive insurance company that we formed in 2015. IFM is part of our enterprise-wide, multiyear insurance strategy that is intended to better position our risk and safety programs and provide us with increased flexibility in the end-to-end management of our insurance programs. IFM began providing coverage to us as of January 1, 2015.

***Share Repurchases***

We repurchased shares under the share repurchase program during the three months ended January 31, 2026, as summarized below. Share repurchases may take place on the open market or otherwise, and all or part of the repurchases may be made pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing of repurchases is at our discretion and will depend upon several factors, including market and business conditions, future cash flows, share price, share availability, and other factors. Repurchased shares are retired and returned to an authorized but unissued status. The share repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice. At January 31, 2026, authorization for $92.0 million of repurchases remained under our share repurchase program.

***Cash Flows***

In addition to revenues and operating profit, our management views operating cash flows as a good indicator of financial performance, because strong operating cash flows provide opportunities for growth both organically and through acquisitions. Operating cash flows primarily depend on: revenue levels; the quality and timing of collections of accounts receivable; the timing of payments to suppliers and other vendors; the timing and amount of income tax payments; and the timing and amount of payments on insurance claims and legal settlements.

*Operating Activities* 

Net cash provided by operating activities was $62.0 million for the three months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to cash used in operating activities of $106.2 million for the three months ended January 31, 2025. The $168.2 million improvement was primarily driven by favorable changes in working capital, including improved cash collections and timing of payments.

*Investing Activities* 

Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $1.8 million during the three months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to the prior year period. This decrease was primarily due to lower purchases of property, plant and equipment.

*Financing Activities* 

Net cash used in financing activities was $55.2 million during the three months ended January 31, 2026, as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $116.9 million during the three months ended January 31, 2025. This quarter's activity was primarily related to an increase in share repurchases and lower net borrowings from our Amended Credit Facility.

**ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.**

There are no material changes related to market risk from the disclosures in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2025.

**ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.**

**a. Disclosure Controls and Procedures.** 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

**b. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.**

To support the growth of our financial shared service capabilities and standardize our financial systems, we continue to update several key platforms, including our HR information systems, enterprise resource planning ("ERP") system, and labor management system. The implementation of several key platforms involves changes in the systems that include internal controls. During the third quarter of 2023 and first quarter of 2025, we had a change in our internal control over financial reporting as a result of our implementation of a new ERP and key boundary systems for the Education, Business & Industry, and Manufacturing & Distribution industry groups that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. The new ERP system and key boundary systems for these industry groups is replacing our legacy system in which a significant portion of our business transactions originate, are processed, and recorded. The rest of our industry groups will transition to our new ERP system and key boundary systems over the next several years. Our new ERP system and key boundary systems are intended to provide us with enhanced transactional processing and management tools, as compared with our legacy system, and is intended to enhance internal control over financial reporting. We believe our new ERP system and key boundary systems will facilitate better transactional reporting and oversight, enhance our internal control over financial reporting, and function as an important component of our disclosure controls and procedures. Although some of the transitions have proceeded to date without material adverse effects, the possibility exists that they could adversely affect our internal control over financial reporting and procedures.

There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the first quarter of 2026 identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

**7. RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS.** In consideration of the compensation, contract term, potential Severance Benefits, continued employment provided by Company, as well as the access Company will provide Executive to its Confidential Information, as defined below, and current and prospective customers, all as necessary for the performance of Executive's duties hereunder, Executive hereby agrees to the following during Executive's employment and thereafter as provided, except that if Executive's employment is terminated under circumstances qualifying Executive for payments under the Change-in-Control Agreement (as defined below), the applicable restrictive covenants set forth in such Change-in-Control Agreement shall supersede Sections 5.3, 5.4, 5.5 and 5.6 below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.1CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION DEFINED. Confidential Information includes but is not limited to: (i) Company and its subsidiary companies' trade secrets, know-how, ideas, applications, systems, processes and other confidential information which is not generally known to and/or readily ascertainable through proper means by the general public; (ii) plans for business development, marketing, business plans and strategies, budgets and financial statements of any kind, costs and suppliers, including methods, policies, procedures, practices, devices and other means used by the Company and its subsidiaries in the operation of its business, pricing plans and strategies, as well as information about the Company and affiliated entity pricing structures and fees, unpublished financial information, contract provisions, training materials, profit margins and bid information; (iii) information regarding the skills, abilities, performance and compensation of other employees of the Company or its subsidiaries, or of the employees of any company that contracts to provide services to the Company or its subsidiaries; (iv) information of third parties to which Executive had access by virtue of Executive's employment, including, but not limited to information on customers, prospective customers, and/or vendors, including current or prospective customers' names, contact information, organizational structure(s), and their representatives responsible for considering the entry or entering into agreements for those services, and/or products provided by the Company and its subsidiaries; customer leads or referrals; customer preferences, needs, and requirements (including customer likes and dislikes, as well as supply and staffing requirements) and the manner in which they have been met by the Company or its subsidiaries; customer billing procedures, credit limits and payment practices,;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.2NON-DISCLOSURE. The Company and Executive acknowledge and agree that the Company has invested significant effort, time and expense to develop its Confidential Information. Except in the proper performance of this Agreement, Executive agrees to hold all Confidential Information in the strictest confidence, and to refrain from making any unauthorized use or disclosure of such information both during Executive's employment and at all times thereafter. Except in the proper performance of this Agreement, Executive shall not directly or indirectly disclose, reveal, transfer or deliver to any other person or business, any Confidential Information which was obtained directly or indirectly by Executive from, or for, the Company or its subsidiaries or by virtue of Executive's employment. This Confidential Information has unique value to the Company and its subsidiaries, is not generally known or readily available by proper means to their competitors or the general public, and could only be developed by others after investing significant effort, time, and expense. Executive understands that Company or its subsidiaries would not make such Confidential Information available to Executive unless the Company was assured that all such Confidential Information will be held in trust and confidence in accordance with this Agreement and applicable law. Executive hereby acknowledges and agrees to use this Confidential Information solely for the benefit of the Company and its affiliated entities. In addition, Executive agrees that at all times after the voluntary or involuntary termination of Executive's employment, Executive shall not attempt to seek, seek, attempt to solicit, solicit, or accept work from of any customer or active customer prospect of Company or any other Company-affiliated entity through the direct or indirect use of any Confidential Information or by any other unfair or unlawful business practice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.3NON-SOLICITATION OF EMPLOYEES. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company has developed its work force as the result of its investment of substantial time, effort, and expense. During the course and solely as a result of Executive's employment with the Company, Executive will come into contact with officers, directors, employees, and/or independent contractors of the Company and Company-affiliated entities, develop relationships with and acquire information regarding their knowledge, skills, abilities, salaries, commissions, benefits, and/or other matters that are not generally known to the public. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that hiring, recruiting, soliciting, or inducing the termination of such individuals will cause increased expenses and a loss of business. Accordingly, Executive agrees that while employed by the Company and for a period of twelve (12) months following the termination of Executive's employment (whether termination is voluntary or involuntary),

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Executive will not directly or indirectly solicit, hire, recruit or otherwise encourage, assist in or arrange for any officer, director, employee, and/or independent contractor to terminate his/her business relationship with the Company or any other Company-affiliated entity except in the proper performance of this Agreement. This prohibition against solicitation shall include but not be limited to: (i) identifying to other companies or their agents, recruiting or staffing firms, or other third parties the Company officers, directors, employees, or independent contractors who have specialized knowledge concerning the Company's business, operations, processes, methods, or other confidential affairs or who have contacts, experience, or relationships with particular customers; (ii) disclosing or commenting to other companies or their agents, recruiting or staffing firms, or other third parties regarding the quality or quantity of work, specialized knowledge, or personal characteristics of any person still engaged by Company or any other Company-affiliated entity; and (iii) providing such information to prospective companies or their agents, recruiting or staffing firms, or other third parties preceding possible engagement; provided, nothing in this Section 5.3 shall prevent Executive from serving as a reference in response to a bona fide inquiry regarding an employee or former employee of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.4NON-SOLICITATION OF CUSTOMERS. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company and its subsidiaries have identified, solicited, and developed their customers and developed customer relationships as the result of their investment of significant time, effort, and expense and that the Company has a legitimate business interest in protecting these relationships. Executive further acknowledges that Executive would not have been privy to these relationships were it not for Executive's employment by the Company. Executive further acknowledges and agrees that the loss of such customers and clients would damage the Company and potentially cause the Company great and irreparable harm. Consequently, Executive covenants and agrees that during and for twelve (12) months following the termination of Executive's employment with the Company (whether such termination is voluntary or involuntary), Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, for the benefit of any person or entity other than the Company, attempt to seek, seek, attempt to solicit, solicit, or accept work from any customer, client or active customer prospect: (i) with whom Executive developed a relationship while employed by Company or otherwise obtained Confidential Information about for the purpose of diverting business from Company or an affiliated entity; and (ii) that is located in a state or foreign country in which: (a) the Executive performed work, services, or engaged in business activity on behalf of the Company within the twelve (12) month period preceding the effective date of Executive's termination of employment; and/or (b) where the Company has business operations and Executive was provided Confidential Information regarding the Company's business activities in those territories within the twelve (12) month period preceding the effective date of Executive's termination of employment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.5POST EMPLOYMENT COMPETITION. Executive agrees that, while employed by the Company and for a period of twelve (12) months following Executive's termination of employment (whether such termination is voluntary or involuntary), Executive shall not work, perform services for, or engage in any business, enterprise, or operation that engages in a Competing Business (as defined below) in a Restricted Territory (as defined below). For purposes of this Agreement, "Competing Business" means the provision of any goods, products, or services that are the same or substantially similar to those provided by the

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Company, or any Company-affiliated entity of which Executive had Confidential Information, in the twelve (12) month period preceding the effective date of Executive's termination of employment. Executive acknowledges that the Company and its subsidiaries are engaged in business in various states throughout the U.S. and various international locations. Accordingly, and in view of the nature of Executive's nationwide position and responsibilities, "Restricted Territory" as used herein means each state and each foreign country: (i) in which Executive performed work, services, or engaged in business activity on behalf of the Company within the twelve (12) month period preceding the effective date of Executive's termination of employment; and/or (ii) where the Company has business operations and Executive was provided Confidential Information regarding the Company's business activities in those territories within the twelve (12) month period preceding the effective date of Executive's termination of employment. The restrictions in Section 5.5 shall only apply if, within the twelve (12) month period prior to the effective date of Executive's termination, Executive was employed by the Company to perform sales, marketing, and/or operational activities, or was directly involved in corporate development and strategy (i.e., mergers, acquisitions, divestitures and/or other corporate strategic initiatives) for the Company or its subsidiaries/affiliates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.6NON-DISPARAGEMENT. Following the termination of Executive's employment for any reason, Executive agrees not to make any statement or take any action which disparages, defames, or places in a negative light the Company, Company-affiliated entities, or its or their reputation, goodwill, commercial interests or past and present officers, directors, employees, consultants, and/or agents, and the Company shall instruct its directors and executive officers to not make any statement or take any action which disparages, defames, or places in a negative light Executive.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.7CREATIONS. The terms and conditions set forth in Appendix A attached hereto are hereby incorporated by reference as though fully set forth herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.8CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION OF OTHERS; NO CONFLICTS**.** Executive will not use, disclose to the Company or induce the Company to use any legally protected confidential, proprietary or trade secret information or material belonging to others which comes into Executive's knowledge or possession at any time, nor will Executive use any such legally protected information or material in the course of Executive's employment with the Company. Executive has no other agreements or relationships with or commitments to any other person or entity that conflicts with Executive's obligations to the Company as an employee of the Company or under this Agreement, and Executive represents that Executive's employment will not require Executive to violate any legal obligations to any third-party. In the event Executive believes that Executive's work at the Company would make it difficult for Executive not to disclose to the Company any legally protected confidential, proprietary or trade secret information or materials belonging to others, Executive will immediately inform the Company's Chief Human Resources Officer. Executive has not entered into, and Executive agrees Executive will not enter into, any oral or written agreement in conflict with this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.9COOPERATION WITH LEGAL MATTERS. During Executive's employment with Company and thereafter, Executive shall reasonably cooperate with Company and any Company-affiliated entity in its or their investigation, defense or prosecution of any potential, current or future legal matter in any forum,

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

including but not limited to lawsuits, administrative charges, audits, arbitrations, and internal and external investigations. Executive's cooperation shall include, but is not limited to, reviewing and preparing documents and reports, meeting with attorneys representing any Company-affiliated entity, providing truthful testimony, and communicating Executive's knowledge of relevant facts to any attorneys, experts, consultants, investigators, employees or other representatives working on behalf of an Company-affiliated entity. Except as required by law, Executive agrees to treat all information regarding any such actual or potential investigation or claim as confidential. Executive also agrees not to discuss or assist in any litigation, potential litigation, claims, or potential claim with any individual (or their attorney or investigator) who is pursuing, or considering pursuing, any claims against the Company or a Company-affiliated entity unless required by law. In performing the tasks outlined in this Section 5.9, Executive shall be bound by the covenants of good faith and veracity set forth in ABM's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and by all legal obligations. Nothing herein is intended to prevent Executive from complying in good faith with any subpoena or other affirmative legal obligation. Executive agrees to notify the Company immediately in the event there is a request for information or inquiry pertaining to the Company, any Company-affiliated entity, or Executive's knowledge of or employment with the Company. In performing responsibilities under this Section following termination of employment for any reason, Executive shall be compensated for Executive's time at an hourly rate of $250 per hour. However, during any period in which Executive is an employee of the Company, Executive shall not be so compensated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.10REMEDIES AND DAMAGES. The parties agree that compliance with Sections 5.1 – 5.7 of the Agreement and Appendix A is necessary to protect the business, reputation and goodwill of the Company and, in the case of Section 5.5 of the Agreement, the reputation and goodwill of Executive, that the restrictions contained herein are reasonable, and that any breach of Section 5 may result in irreparable and continuing harm to the Company or to Executive, for which monetary damages will not provide adequate relief. Accordingly, in the event of any actual or threatened breach of any covenant or promise made by either party in Section 5, Company and Executive agree that both parties shall be entitled to all appropriate remedies, including temporary restraining orders and injunctions enjoining or restraining such actual or threatened breach. Each of the Company and Executive hereby consents to the issuance thereof forthwith by any court of competent jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.11LIMITATIONS. Nothing in this Agreement shall be binding upon the parties to the extent it is void or unenforceable for any reason in the State of New York, including, without limitation, as a result of any law regulating competition or proscribing unlawful business practices; provided, however, that to the extent that any provision in this Agreement could be modified to render it enforceable under applicable law, it shall be deemed so modified and enforced to the fullest extent allowed by law.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

8.**AT-WILL EMPLOYMENT**. The employment of Executive shall be "at-will" at all times. The Company or Executive may terminate Executive's employment with the Company at any time, without any advance notice, for any reason or no reason at all, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in or arising from any statements, policies or practices of the Company relating to the employment, discipline or termination of its employees. Following the termination of Executive's employment for any reason, the Company shall pay to Executive all compensation to which Executive is entitled up through the date of termination, including accrued but unpaid Base Salary, any accrued and unused paid time off and any incurred but unpaid reimbursements (together "Accrued Obligations"). Thereafter, all obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall cease other than those set forth in Section 7.

**9. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.1TERMINATION BY COMPANY FOR CAUSE. Where the Company terminates Executive's employment for Cause, all obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall cease; provided the Company shall pay Executive the Accrued Obligations within thirty (30) days of the termination of Executive's employment. For purposes of this Agreement, "Cause" shall mean the occurrence of one of the following: (i) Executive's willful misconduct, dishonesty, or insubordination; (ii) Executive's conviction (or entry of a plea bargain admitting criminal guilt) of any felony or a misdemeanor involving moral turpitude; (iii) drug or alcohol abuse that has a material effect on the performance of Executive's duties and responsibilities under this Agreement; (iv) Executive's willful and repeated failure to substantially perform Executive's duties and responsibilities under this Agreement for reasons other than death or Disability, as defined below; (v) Executive's willful and repeated inattention to duty for reasons other than death or Disability; (vi) Executive's material and willful violation of the Company's Code of Business Conduct; and (vii) any other material and willful breach of this Agreement by Executive. No Cause shall exist until the Company has given Executive written notice describing the circumstances giving rise to Cause in reasonable detail and, to the extent such circumstances are susceptible to remedy, Executive has failed to remedy such circumstances within fifteen (15) days of receiving such notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.2TERMINATION BY THE COMPANY WITHOUT CAUSE OR TERMINATION BY THE EXECUTIVE FOR GOOD REASON. Where the Company terminates Executive's employment without Cause, or Executive terminates Executive's employment for Good Reason (as defined below), Executive shall be entitled to: (i) a payment equal in the aggregate to 2 times the sum of (A) Executive's Base Salary and (B) Executive's Target Cash Bonus, which payment shall be paid in equal installments (no less frequently than monthly) over the 24-month period following Executive's separation from service, provided that any amounts otherwise payable prior to the effective date of the release referenced below shall be paid in a lump sum within 7 days following the effective date of such release; (ii) eighteen (18) months' medical benefits coverage, which may be provided through COBRA reimbursement; (iii) Executive's prorated Cash Bonus for the year of termination based on the Committee's determination of actual performance following the end of the performance period; and (iv) any earned but unpaid Cash Bonus in respect of any completed fiscal year that has ended prior to the date of such termination (the amounts set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) collectively, the "Severance Benefits"); provided that Executive's eligibility to receive the Severance Benefits is conditioned on: (A) Executive having first signed a release agreement in the

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

form provided by the Company and reasonably acceptable to Executive, but containing no further post-employment restrictions or covenants other than those to which Executive is already subject hereunder, and the release becoming irrevocable by its terms within sixty (60) calendar days following the date of Executive's termination of employment; and (B) Executive's continued compliance with all continuing obligations under this Agreement, including but not limited to those set forth in Section 5. Executive shall not have any other rights or claims under this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" shall mean the occurrence of one or more of the following events without Executive's prior written consent: (x) a material reduction in the Executive's Base Salary, (y) a material reduction in the Target Cash Bonus, or (z) the Company requires the Executive to change Executive's principal location of work by more than 50 miles. No Good Reason shall exist unless Executive has provided notice of such circumstances giving rise to Good Reason in reasonable detail to the Company within 30 days following the occurrence of such circumstances and, to the extent such circumstances are susceptible to remedy, the Company has failed to remedy such circumstances within thirty (30) days of receiving such notice, and Executive shall have resigned within 30 days following expiration of such cure period. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event Executive becomes entitled to receive Severance Benefits, any such Severance Benefits that remain unpaid upon Executive's death shall be paid to Executive's estate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.37.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;VOLUNTARY TERMINATION BY EXECUTIVE. Executive may give written notice of Executive's resignation of employment at any time during this Agreement pursuant to Section 6, and thereafter, all obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall cease; provided the Company shall pay Executive the Accrued Obligations within thirty (30) days of the termination of Executive's employment or earlier as required by law. Executive is requested to provide sixty (60) days' written notice of Executive's resignation or as much time as reasonable under the circumstances. Company reserves the right to relieve Executive of Executive's duties at the Company's discretion following notice of Executive's intent to resign.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.47.4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;RETIREMENT. With respect to equity-based awards granted following the Effective Date, in the event that Executive retires voluntarily from ABM following reaching age 60 with a minimum of 10 years of service, Executive's then-outstanding equity-based awards under the Equity Plan (including any awards issued by an acquirer or successor to ABM in exchange or substitution for such awards) that were granted at least one year prior to such retirement will not be forfeited but will continue to be eligible for vesting, exercise and settlement, as applicable, on the originally scheduled vesting dates (and, for the avoidance of doubt with respect to performance-based awards, to the extent the applicable performance criteria originally set forth in such awards are met), subject to Executive's continued compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 5 hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.57.5&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;DEATH OR DISABILITY. Executive's employment hereunder shall automatically terminate upon the death of Executive and may be terminated at the Company's discretion as a result of Executive's Disability. "Disability" means

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Executive's substantial inability to perform Executive's essential duties and responsibilities under this Agreement for either 90 consecutive days or a total of 120 days out of 365 consecutive days as a result of a physical or mental illness, injury or impairment, all as determined in good faith by the Company. If Executive's employment is terminated by the Company due to Executive's death or Disability, then (i) Executive, or, upon death, to Executive's designated beneficiary or estate, as applicable, shall be eligible to receive (A) any earned but unpaid Cash Bonus in respect of any completed fiscal year that has ended prior to the date of such termination and (B) a prorated Target Cash Bonus based on the length of performance in the applicable performance period prior to death or Disability and (ii) Executive's then-outstanding equity-based awards under the Equity Plan (including any awards issued by an acquirer or successor to ABM in exchange or substitution for such awards) (x) that are subject to time-based vesting will not be forfeited but will become immediately fully vested and (y) that are subject to performance-based vesting for then-ongoing performance periods shall immediately become fully vested with respect to the number of shares that would have become earned and vested if the target level of performance was met. In the case of Disability, Executive's eligibility to receive the foregoing is conditioned on: (i) Executive having first signed a release agreement in the form provided by the Company and reasonably acceptable to Executive, but containing no further post-employment restrictions or covenants other than those to which Executive is already subject hereunder, and the release becoming irrevocable by its terms within sixty (60) calendar days following the date of Executive's termination of employment; and (ii) Executive's continued compliance with all continuing obligations under this Agreement, including but not limited to those set forth in Section 5. Thereafter, Executive and Executive's designated beneficiary or estate, as applicable, shall not have any other rights or claims under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.67.6&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;TIMING OF PAYMENTS. For the avoidance of doubt and without limiting the generality of Section 10.7, the parties intend that, except as expressly provided otherwise, any payments that become payable to Executive pursuant to Section 7.2 are intended to be exempt from, or compliant with, Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code ("Section 409A"), and except as expressly provided otherwise shall be paid within the short-term deferral period within the meaning of Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-1(b)(4) to the extent required to be paid no later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive incurs a separation from service or shall be deemed to be paid under a "separation pay plan" within the meaning of Section 409A to the extent applicable. Any Cash Bonus or prorated Cash Bonus that becomes payable to Executive pursuant to Section 7.2(iii) shall be paid to Executive following the end of the applicable performance period when such payments are made to other participants and in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan or program, provided that in no event shall any such payment be made to Executive later than March 15th of the calendar year following the end of the performance year.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.77.7&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;PAYMENTS AND BENEFITS WITH RESPECT TO A CHANGE IN CONTROL. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or otherwise, if Executive's employment is terminated under circumstances qualifying Executive for payments under the Change-in-Control Agreement between Executive and ABM (or any successor or amendment to such agreement, as applicable, the "Change-in-Control Agreement"), Executive shall not be entitled to the Severance Benefits under this Agreement and, alternatively, Executive's entitlement to payments and benefits, if any, shall be governed by the terms of such Change-in-Control Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.87.8&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;EXCESS PARACHUTE PAYMENTS. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other agreement or plan to the contrary (including without limitation any lesser protection of Executive under any equity-based award agreement), if any amount or benefit to be paid or provided under this Agreement or any other agreement or plan would be an "excess parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Code (an "Excess Parachute Payment") (including after taking into account the value, to the maximum extent permitted by Section 280G of the Code, of the covenants herein), but for the application of this sentence, then the payments and benefits to be paid or provided under this Agreement and any other agreements and plans will be reduced to the minimum extent necessary (but in no event to less than zero) so that no portion of any such payment or benefit, as so reduced, constitutes an Excess Parachute Payment; provided, however, that the foregoing reduction will not be made if such reduction would result in Executive receiving an amount determined on an after-tax basis, taking into account the excise tax imposed pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code, or any successor provision thereto, any tax imposed by any comparable provision of state law and any applicable federal, state and local income and employment taxes (the "After-Tax Amount") that is less than 90% of the After-Tax Amount of the payments and benefits that he would have received without regard to this clause. Whether requested by the Executive or the Company, the determination of whether any reduction in such payments or benefits to be provided under this Agreement or otherwise is required pursuant to the preceding sentence, and the value to be assigned to the Executive's covenants herein for purposes of determining the amount, if any, of the Excess Parachute Payment will be made at the expense of the Company by the Company's independent accountants or benefits consultant. The fact that the Executive's right to payments or benefits may be reduced by reason of the limitations contained in this Section will not of itself limit or otherwise affect any other rights of the Executive pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement or plan. In the event that any payment or benefit intended to be provided is required to be reduced pursuant to this Section, then the Company shall in good faith determine the appropriate treatment of payments or benefits, consistent with the requirements of Section 409A that produces the most advantageous economic outcome for the Executive, and its determination shall be final and binding on the Executive. The Company will provide the Executive with all information reasonably required or requested by the Executive to

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

demonstrate to the Executive that it has complied with the immediately preceding sentence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.97.9&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ACTIONS UPON TERMINATION. Upon termination of Executive's employment for any reason, Executive shall be deemed to have immediately resigned as an officer and/or director of the Company and of any Company subsidiaries or affiliates, including any LLCs or joint ventures, as applicable. Further, if during employment Executive held any membership or position as a representative of the Company for any outside organization (such as BOMA, IREM, IFMA or BSCIA), or as a trustee for a union trust fund (such as a Taft-Hartley or similar fund), upon termination of Executive's employment for any reason, Executive shall be deemed to have resigned from such membership or position, or trustee position, and shall cooperate fully with the Company in any process whereby the Company designates a new representative to replace the position vacated by Executive. Executive also agrees that all property (including without limitation all equipment, tangible proprietary information, documents, records, notes, contracts and computer-generated materials) furnished to or created or prepared by Executive incident to Executive's employment with the Company belongs to the Company and shall be promptly returned to the Company upon termination of Executive's employment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.107.10&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;WITHHOLDING AUTHORIZATION. To the fullest extent permitted under the laws of the State of Employment hereunder, Executive authorizes Company to withhold from any Severance Benefits otherwise due to Executive and from any other funds held for Executive's benefit by Company, any undisputed damages or losses sustained by Company as a result of any material breach or other material violation of this Agreement by Executive, pending resolution of any underlying dispute.

For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 9 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

**12. GENERAL PROVISIONS.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.1GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Employment, which, for purposes of this Agreement, shall mean the state of New York.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.2NO WAIVER. Failure by either party to enforce any term or condition of this Agreement at any time shall not preclude that party from enforcing that provision, or any other provision of this Agreement, at any later time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.3SEVERABILITY. It is the desire and intent of the parties that the provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the law and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. Accordingly, in the event that any provision of this Agreement would be held in any jurisdiction to be invalid, prohibited or unenforceable for any reason, 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. 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 either automatically deemed so narrowly drawn, or any court of competent jurisdiction is hereby expressly authorized to redraw it in that manner, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.4SURVIVAL. All terms and conditions of this Agreement which by reasonable implication are meant to survive the termination of this Agreement, including but not limited to the provisions of Sections 5.1 – 5.9 of this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect after the termination of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.5SUCCESSORS. This Agreement is binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties' respective successors, assigns, administrators and legal representatives and Executive's heirs and executors.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.6REPRESENTATIONS BY EXECUTIVE. Executive represents and agrees that Executive has carefully read and fully understands all of the provisions of this Agreement, that Executive is voluntarily entering into this Agreement and has been given an opportunity to review all aspects of this Agreement with an attorney, if Executive chooses to do so. Executive understands and agrees that Executive's employment with the Company is at-will and that nothing in this Agreement is intended to create a contract of employment for any fixed or definite term. Executive understands Executive is also now eligible for Severance Benefits to which Executive was not previously entitled and acknowledges the value of such benefits. Executive also represents that Executive will not make any unauthorized use of any confidential or proprietary information of any third party in the performance of Executive's duties under this Agreement and that Executive is under no obligation to any prior employer or other entity that would preclude or interfere with the full and good faith performance of Executive's obligations hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.7SECTION 409A. Without limiting the generality of Section 7.6, the parties intend for the payments and benefits under this Agreement to be exempt from Section 409A or, if not so exempt, to be paid or provided in a manner which complies with the requirements of such section, and intend that this Agreement shall be construed and administered in accordance with such intention. If any payments or benefits due to Executive hereunder would cause the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, such payments or benefits shall be restructured in a mutually agreed upon manner that to the extent possible preserves the economic benefit and original intent thereof but does not cause such an accelerated or additional tax. For purposes of the limitations on nonqualified deferred compensation under Section 409A, each payment of compensation under this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment of compensation. Without limiting the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to this Agreement during the six (6) month period immediately following Executive's separation from service shall instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six (6) months following Executive's termination date (or death, if earlier). In the event that any payment under this Agreement may be made in two calendar years, depending on the timing of execution of a release, such payment shall be made in the later calendar year, to the extent required by Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all (A) reimbursements and (B) in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A, including, where applicable, the requirement that (x) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in kind benefits provided, during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in kind benefits to be provided, in any other calendar year; (y) the reimbursement of an eligible expense will be made no later than the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the expense is incurred; and (z) the right to reimbursement or in kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.8COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed as an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument binding on all of the parties hereto, notwithstanding that all of the parties are not signatory to the same counterpart.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

This Agreement may be executed either by original, facsimile, or electronic copy, each of which will be equally binding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.9ENTIRE AGREEMENT. Unless otherwise specified herein, this Agreement, together with Appendix A, sets forth every contract, understanding and arrangement as to the employment relationship between Executive and the Company (other than the Change in Control Agreement and any equity award agreement under the Equity Plan; *provided* that in the event that this Agreement conflicts with the terms of any equity award agreement, this Agreement shall govern unless otherwise expressly stated in such equity award agreement).

12.9.aNO EXTERNAL EVIDENCE. The parties intend that this Agreement speak for itself, and that no evidence with respect to its terms and conditions other than this Agreement itself may be introduced in any arbitration or judicial proceeding to interpret or enforce this Agreement.

12.9.bAMENDMENTS. This Agreement may not be amended except in a writing signed by the Executive and an authorized representative of the Company.

**APPENDIX A**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ASSIGNMENT. Executive hereby assigns, and agrees to assign, to the Company, without additional compensation, Executive's entire right, title and interest in and to (a) all Creations, and (b) all benefits, privileges, causes of action and remedies relating to the Creations, whether before or hereafter accrued (including, without limitation, the exclusive rights to apply for and maintain all such registrations, renewals and/or extensions; to sue for all past, present or future infringements or other violations of any rights in the Creation; and to settle and retain proceeds from any such actions). As used herein, the term Creations includes, but is not limited to, creations, inventions, works of authorship, ideas, processes, technology, formulas, software programs, writings, designs, discoveries, modifications and improvements, whether or not patentable or reduced to practice and whether or not copyrightable, that relate in any manner to the actual or demonstrably anticipated business or research and development of the Company or its affiliates, and that are made, conceived or developed by Executive (either alone or jointly with others), or result from or are suggested by any work performed by Executive (either alone or jointly with others) for or on behalf of the Company or its affiliates: (i) during the period of Executive's employment with the Company, whether or not made, conceived or developed during regular business hours; or (ii) after termination of Executive's employment if based on Confidential Information. Executive agrees that all such Creations are the sole property of the Company or any other entity designated by it, and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any copyrightable Creation will be deemed a work made for hire. If the State of Employment is California, Executive UNDERSTANDS THAT THIS PARAGRAPH DOES NOT APPLY TO ANY CREATION WHICH QUALIFIES FULLY UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 2870 OF THE LABOR CODE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, A COPY OF WHICH IS ATTACHED BELOW. Executive understands that nothing in this Agreement is intended to expand the scope of protection provided to Executive by Sections 2870 through 2872 of the California Labor Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;DISCLOSURE. Executive agrees to disclose promptly and fully to Executive's immediate supervisor at the Company, and to hold in confidence for the sole right, benefit and use of Company, any and all Creations made, conceived or developed by Executive (either alone or jointly with others) during Executive's employment with the Company, or within one (1) year after the termination of Executive's employment if based on Confidential Information. Such disclosure will be received and held in confidence by the Company. In addition, Executive agrees to keep and maintain adequate and current written records on the development of all Creations made, conceived or developed by Executive (either alone or jointly with others) during Executive's period of employment or during

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

the one-year period following termination of Executive's employment, which records will be available to and remain the sole property of the Company at all times.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ASSIST WITH REGISTRATION. Executive agrees that Executive will, at the Company's request, promptly execute a written assignment of title for any Creation required to be assigned by Section B. Executive further agrees to perform, during and after Executive's employment, all acts deemed necessary or desirable by the Company to assist it (at its expense) in obtaining and enforcing the full benefits, enjoyment, rights and title throughout the world in the Creation assigned to the Company pursuant to Section B. Such acts may include, but are not limited to, execution of documents and assistance or cooperation in legal proceedings. Should the Company be unable to secure Executive's signature on any document necessary to apply for, prosecute, obtain, or enforce any patent, copyright, or other right or protection relating to any Creation, whether due to Executive's mental or physical incapacity or any other cause, Executive hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and each of its duly authorized officers and agents as Executive's agent and attorney-in-fact, to undertake such acts in Executive's name as if executed and delivered by Executive, and Executive waives and quitclaims to the Company any and all claims of any nature whatsoever that Executive may not have or may later have for infringement of any intellectual property rights in the Creations. The Company will compensate Executive at a reasonable rate for time actually spent by Executive at the Company's request on such assistance at any time following termination of Executive's employment with the Company.

**CALIFORNIA LABOR CODE<br>SECTION 2870-2872**

2870. (a) Any provision in an employment agreement which provides that an employee shall assign, or offer to assign, any of his or her rights in an invention to his or her employer shall not apply to an invention that the employee developed entirely on his or her own time without using the employer's equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade secret information except for those inventions that either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.Relate at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the invention to the employer's business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of the employer; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.Result from any work performed by the employee for the employer.

(b) To the extent a provision in an employment agreement purports to require an employee to assign an invention otherwise excluded from being required to be assigned under subdivision (a), the provision is against the public policy of this state and is unenforceable.

2871. No employer shall require a provision made void and unenforceable by Section 2870 as a condition of employment or continued employment. Nothing in this article shall be construed to

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

forbid or restrict the right of an employer to provide in contracts of employment for disclosure, provided that any such disclosures be received in confidence, of all of the employee's inventions made solely or jointly with others during the term of his or her employment, a review process by the employer to determine such issues as may arise, and for full title to certain patents and inventions to be in the United States, as required by contracts between the employer and the United States or any of its agencies.

2872. If an employment agreement entered into after January 1, 1980, contains a provision requiring the employee to assign or offer to assign any of his or her rights in any invention to his or her employer, the employer must also, at the time the agreement is made provide a written notification to the employee that the agreement does not apply to an invention which qualifies fully under the provisions of Section 2870. In any suit or action arising thereunder, the burden of proof shall be on the employee claiming the benefits of its provisions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.<u>Operation of Agreement</u>. This Agreement will be effective and binding immediately upon its execution, but, anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement will not be operative unless and until a Change in Control occurs. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, without further action, this Agreement will become immediately operative until the end of the Severance Period; *provided* that if, prior to a Change in Control, the Executive ceases for any reason to be a full-time employee of the Company, thereupon without further action this Agreement will immediately terminate and be of no further effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.<u>Termination Following a Change in Control</u>. (a) In the event of the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Executive's employment may be terminated by the Company during the Severance Period and the Executive will be entitled to the benefits provided by Section 4 unless such termination is the result of the occurrence of one or more of the following events:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)the Executive's death;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)if the Executive becomes permanently disabled within the meaning of, and begins actually to receive disability benefits pursuant to, the long-term disability plan in effect for, or applicable to, the Executive immediately prior to the Change in Control; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)Cause.

If, during the Severance Period, the Executive's employment is terminated by the Company other than pursuant to Section 3(a)(i), 3(a)(ii) or 3(a)(iii), the Executive will be entitled to the benefits provided by Section 4; *provided* that such termination constitutes a "separation from service" as defined in Section 409A.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)In the event of the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Executive may terminate employment with the Company for Good Reason, with the right to severance compensation as provided in Section 4, regardless of whether any other reason, other than Cause, for such termination exists or has occurred, including without limitation other employment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Nothing in this Agreement will (i) be construed as creating an express or implied contract of employment, changing the status of Executive as an employee at will, giving Executive any right to be retained in the employ of the Company, or giving Executive the right to any particular level of compensation or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

------

benefits or (ii) interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate the employment of the Executive at any time with or without Cause, subject in either case to the obligations of the Company under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.<u>Severance Compensation</u>. (a) If, following the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Company terminates the Executive's employment during the Severance Period other than pursuant to Section 3(a)(i), 3(a)(ii) or 3(a)(iii), or if the Executive terminates Executive's employment pursuant to Section 3(b) (any such termination, a "Triggering Termination"), then, *provided* that such Triggering Termination constitutes a "separation from service" as defined in Section 409A, the Company will pay to the Executive the amounts described in Annex A within fifteen business days after the Termination Date (subject to the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Without limiting the rights of the Executive at law or in equity, if the Company fails to make any payment or provide any benefit required to be made or provided hereunder on a timely basis, the Company will pay interest on the amount or value thereof at an annualized rate of interest equal to the "prime rate" as set forth from time to time during the relevant period in The Wall Street Journal "Money Rates" column, plus 200 basis points, compounded monthly, or, if less, the maximum rate legally allowed. Such interest will be payable as it accrues on demand. Any change in such prime rate will be effective on and as of the date of such change.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Unless otherwise expressly provided by the applicable plan, program or agreement, after the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Company will pay in cash to the Executive a lump sum amount equal to the sum of (i) any unpaid Incentive Pay that has been earned, accrued, allocated or awarded to the Executive for any performance period that by its terms as in effect prior to a Triggering Termination has been completed (any such period, a "Completed Performance Period") (regardless of whether payment of such compensation would otherwise be contingent on the continuing performance of services by the Executive) and (ii) the Pro Rata Portion of the Incentive Pay Target in effect for any subsequent performance period. For this purpose, "Pro Rata Portion" means (x) the number of days from and including the first day immediately following the last day of the immediately preceding Completed Performance Period to and including the Termination Date, divided by (y) the total number of days in such subsequent performance period. Such payments will be made at the earlier of (x) the date prescribed for payment pursuant to the applicable plan, program or agreement and (y) within five business days after the Termination Date, and will be payable and calculated disregarding any otherwise applicable vesting requirements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)To the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to this Agreement during the six-month period immediately following the Executive's termination of employment shall instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six months following the Executive's termination of employment (or upon the Executive's death, if earlier). In addition, for purposes of this Agreement, each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A, and any payments described in Annex A that are due within the "short-term deferral period" as defined in Section 409A shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.<u>Limitations on Payments and Benefits</u>. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any Other Agreement to the contrary (including without limitation any lesser protection of Executive under any equity-based award agreement), if any amount or benefit to be paid or provided under this Agreement or any Other Agreement would be an Excess Parachute Payment (including after taking into account the value, to the maximum extent permitted by Section 280G of the Code, of the covenants in Section 9 hereof), but for the application of this sentence, then the payments and benefits to be paid or provided under this Agreement and any Other Agreement will be reduced to the minimum extent necessary (but in no event to less than zero) so that no portion of any such payment or benefit, as so reduced, constitutes an Excess Parachute Payment; *provided, however*, that the foregoing reduction will not be made if such reduction would result in Executive receiving an After-Tax Amount that is less than 90% of the After-Tax Amount of the payments and benefits that he or she would have received under Section 4 or under any Other Agreement without regard to this clause. Whether requested by the Executive or the Company, the determination of whether any reduction in such payments or benefits to be provided under this Agreement or otherwise is required pursuant to the preceding sentence, and the value to be assigned to the Executive's covenants in Section 9 hereof for purposes of determining the amount, if any, of the Excess Parachute Payment will be made at the expense of the Company by the Company's independent accountants or benefits consultant. The fact that the Executive's right to payments or benefits may be reduced by reason of the limitations contained in this Section 5 will not of itself limit or otherwise affect any other rights of the Executive pursuant to this Agreement or any Other Agreement. In the event that any payment or benefit intended to be provided is required to be reduced pursuant to this Section 5, then the Company shall in good faith determine the appropriate treatment of payments or benefits, consistent with the requirements of Section 409A that produces the most advantageous economic outcome for the Executive, and its determination shall be final and binding on the Executive. The Company will provide the Executive with all information reasonably required or requested by the Executive to demonstrate to the Executive that it has complied with the immediately preceding sentence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.<u>Executive Protections; Defend Trade Secrets Act.</u> (a) Nothing in this Agreement or otherwise limits Executive's ability to communicate directly with and provide information, including documents, not otherwise protected from disclosure by any applicable law or privilege to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), or any other federal, state or local governmental agency or commission or self-regulatory organization (each such agency, commission or organization, a "Government Agency") regarding possible legal violations, without disclosure to the Company. The Company may not retaliate against Executive for any of these activities, and nothing in this Agreement requires Executive to waive any monetary award

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

------

or other relief that Executive might become entitled to from the SEC or any other Government Agency.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Pursuant to the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Executive and the Company acknowledge and agree that Executive shall not have criminal or civil liability under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (i) is made (x) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney and (y) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (ii) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. In addition and without limiting the preceding sentence, if Executive files a lawsuit for retaliation by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, Executive may disclose the trade secret to Executive's attorney and may use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if Executive (X) files any document containing the trade secret under seal and (Y) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.<u>No Mitigation Obligation; Other Agreements</u>. (a) The Company hereby acknowledges that it will be difficult and may be impossible for the Executive to find reasonably comparable employment following the Termination Date. Accordingly, the payment of the severance compensation by the Company to the Executive in accordance with the terms of this Agreement is hereby acknowledged by the Company to be reasonable, and the Executive will not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment provided for in this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor will any profits, income, earnings or other benefits from any source whatsoever create any mitigation, offset, reduction or any other obligation on the part of the Executive hereunder or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)A termination of employment pursuant to Section 3 will not affect any rights that the Executive may have pursuant to any agreement, policy, plan, program or arrangement of the Company or Subsidiary providing Employee Benefits, which rights will be governed by the terms thereof. To the extent that the Executive receives payments by reason of his or her termination of employment pursuant to any other employment or severance agreement or employee plan (collectively, "Other Employment Agreements"), the amounts otherwise receivable under Section 4 will be reduced by the amounts actually paid pursuant to the Other Employment Agreements, but not below zero, to avoid duplication of payments so that the total amount payable or value of benefits receivable hereunder and under the Other Employment Agreements is not less than the amounts so payable or value so receivable had such benefits been paid in full hereunder. In the event that this Agreement conflicts with the terms of any equity award agreement, this Agreement shall govern unless otherwise expressly stated in such equity award agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.<u>Legal Fees and Expenses</u>. It is the intent of the Company that the Executive not be required to incur legal fees and the related expenses associated with the interpretation, enforcement or defense of Executive's rights in connection with any dispute arising under this Agreement 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 the Company has failed to comply with any of its obligations under this Agreement or in the event that the Company or any other person takes or threatens to take any action to declare

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

------

this Agreement void or unenforceable, or institutes any proceeding designed to deny, or to recover from, the Executive the benefits provided or intended to be provided to the Executive hereunder, the Company irrevocably authorizes the Executive from time to time to retain counsel of Executive's choice, at the expense of the Company as hereafter provided, to advise and represent the Executive in connection with any such dispute or proceeding. Without respect to whether the Executive prevails, in whole or in part, in connection with any of the foregoing, the Company will pay and be solely financially responsible for any and all reasonable attorneys' and related fees and expenses incurred by the Executive in connection with any of the foregoing; *provided* that, in regard to such matters, the Executive has not acted in bad faith or with no colorable claim of success. The Executive shall promptly submit a written request for reimbursement of such expenses, but in no event later than ninety days following the date on which such expenses were incurred, accompanied by such evidence of fees and expenses incurred as the Company may reasonably require, and such reimbursements will be made within thirty business days after delivery of the Executive's written requests for payment. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement provided to the Executive during any calendar year will not affect the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement provided to Executive in any other calendar year; (ii) the reimbursements for expenses for which Executive is entitled to be reimbursed shall be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the applicable expense is incurred; and (iii) the right to payment or reimbursement may not be liquidated or exchanged for any other benefit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.<u>Competitive Activity; Confidentiality; Nonsolicitation</u>. (a) For the period following the Termination Date specified in Paragraph (4) of Annex A (the "Non-Competition Period"), subject to the Executive's receipt of benefits under Section 4, the Executive will not, without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, engage in any Competitive Activity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)The Company agrees that it will disclose to Executive its confidential or proprietary information (as defined in this Section (b)) to the extent necessary for Executive to carry out Executive's obligations to the Company. The Executive hereby covenants and agrees that, subject to Section 6(a), Executive will not, without the prior written consent of the Company, during the term of his employment with the Company and two years after the Termination Date disclose to any person not employed by the Company, or use in connection with engaging in competition with the Company, any confidential or proprietary information of the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "confidential or proprietary information" will include all information of any nature and in any form that is owned by the Company and that is not publicly available (other than by Executive's breach of this Section 9(b)) or generally known to persons engaged in businesses similar or related to those of the Company. Confidential or proprietary information will include, without limitation, the Company's financial matters, customers, employees, industry contracts, strategic business plans, product development (or other proprietary product data), marketing plans, and all other secrets and all other information of a confidential or proprietary nature. For purposes of the preceding two sentences, the term "Company" will also include any Subsidiary (collectively, the "Restricted Group"). The obligations imposed by this Section 9(b) will

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

------

be subject to Section 6(a) and will not apply (i) during the term of his employment with the Company, in the course of the business of and for the benefit of the Company and (ii) if such confidential or proprietary information has become, through no fault of the Executive, generally known to the public.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)The Executive hereby covenants and agrees that, for a period ending one year after the Termination Date, Executive will not, without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent will not unreasonably be withheld as to Executive's personal assistant, on behalf of Executive or on behalf of any person, firm or company, directly or indirectly, attempt to influence, persuade or induce, or assist any other person in so persuading or inducing, any employee of the Restricted Group to give up, or to not commence, employment or a business relationship with the Restricted Group.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Executive and the Company agree that the covenants contained in this Section 9 are reasonable under the circumstances and subject to the provisions of Section 15 of this Agreement. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at law available to the Company for breach of any of Executive's obligations under this Section 9 would be inadequate and that damages flowing from such a breach may not readily be susceptible to being measured in monetary terms. Accordingly, Executive acknowledges, consents and agrees that, in addition to any other rights or remedies that the Company may have at law, in equity or under this Agreement, upon adequate proof of Executive's violation of any such provision of this Agreement, the Company will be entitled to immediate injunctive relief and may obtain a temporary order restraining any threatened or further breach, without the necessity of proof of actual damage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.<u>Employment Rights</u>. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement will create any right or duty on the part of the Company or the Executive to have the Executive remain in the employment of the Company or any Subsidiary prior to or following any Change in Control.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.<u>Withholding of Taxes</u>. The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement all federal, state, city or other taxes as the Company is required to withhold pursuant to any applicable law, regulation or ruling.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.<u>Successors and Binding Agreement</u>. (a) The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company, by agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Executive (to the extent not assumed by operation of law), expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and any successor to the Company, including without limitation any persons acquiring directly or indirectly all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company whether by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise (and such successor will thereafter be deemed the "Company" for the purposes of this Agreement), but will not otherwise be assignable, transferable or delegable by the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive's personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees and legatees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)This Agreement is personal in nature and neither of the parties hereto will, without the consent of the other, assign, transfer or delegate this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder except as expressly provided in Sections 12(a) and 12(b). Without limiting the generality or effect of the foregoing, the Executive's right to receive payments hereunder will not be assignable, transferable or delegable, whether by pledge, creation of a security interest, or otherwise, other than by a transfer by Executive's will or by the laws of descent and distribution and, in the event of any attempted assignment or transfer contrary to this Section 12(c), the Company will have no liability to pay any amount so attempted to be assigned, transferred or delegated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.<u>Notices</u>. For all purposes of this Agreement, all communications, including without limitation notices, consents, requests or approvals, required or permitted to be given hereunder will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given when hand delivered or dispatched by electronic facsimile transmission (with receipt thereof orally confirmed), or five business days after having been mailed by United States registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or three business days after having been sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service such as FedEx or UPS, addressed to the Company (to the attention of the Secretary of the Company) at its principal executive office and to the Executive at Executive's principal residence, or to such other address as any party may have furnished to the other in writing and in accordance herewith, except that notices of changes of address will be effective only upon receipt.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.<u>Governing Law</u>. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Delaware and federal law, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws of such State, except as expressly provided herein. In the event the Company exercises its discretion under Section 9(d) to bring an action to enforce the covenants contained in Section 9 in a court of competent jurisdiction where the Executive has breached or threatened to breach such covenants, and in no other event, the parties agree that the court may apply the law of the jurisdiction in which such action is pending in order to enforce the covenants to the fullest extent permissible.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.<u>Validity</u>. If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any provision hereof to any person or circumstance is held invalid, unenforceable or otherwise illegal, including without limitation Section 9, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to any other person or circumstance will not be affected, and the provision so held to be invalid, unenforceable or otherwise illegal will be reformed to the extent (and only to the extent) necessary to make it enforceable, valid or legal. If any covenant in Section 9 should be deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable because its time, geographical area, or restricted activity, is considered excessive, such covenant will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to render the modified covenant valid, legal and enforceable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16.<u>Miscellaneous</u>. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing signed by the Executive and the Company. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto or compliance with any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party will be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise, expressed or implied with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by either party that are not set forth expressly in this Agreement. The headings used in this Agreement are intended for convenience or reference only and will not in any manner amplify, limit, modify or otherwise be used in the construction or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. References to Sections are to Sections of this Agreement. References to Paragraphs are to Paragraphs of an Annex to this Agreement. Any reference in this Agreement to a provision of a statute, rule or regulation will also include any successor provision thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17.<u>Survival</u>. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the parties' respective rights and obligations under Sections 3(c), 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12(b), 17 and 19 will survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement or the termination of the Executive's employment following a Change in Control for any reason whatsoever.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.<u>Beneficiaries</u>. The Executive will be entitled to select (and change, to the extent permitted under any applicable law) a beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive any compensation or benefit payable hereunder following the Executive's death, and may change such election, in either case by giving the Company written notice thereof in accordance with Section 13. In the event of the Executive's death or a judicial determination of the Executive's incompetence, reference in this Agreement to the "Executive" will be deemed, where appropriate, to the Executive's beneficiary, estate or other legal representative.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;19.<u>Counterparts</u>. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;20.<u>Section 409A</u>. To the extent applicable, it is intended that this Agreement comply with the provisions of Section 409A. This Agreement will be administered in a manner consistent with this intent, and any provision that would cause the Agreement to fail to satisfy Section 409A will have no force and effect until amended to comply with Section 409A (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by Section 409A and may be made by the Company without the consent of the Executive).
