Dear
Bob:

 

This
letter will confirm our offer of employment to you by Duane Reade Inc. (the “Company.”)

 

Your
initial assignment will be as Vice President, Pharmacy and Business
Development, reporting directly to Mr. Jerry Ray, Senior Vice
President/Pharmacy Operations. You will be based at our headquarters office
located at 440 9th Avenue, New York, NY. Your
initial salary will be $300,000.00 annually ($11,538.47 bi-weekly). Future
salary increases will be based on demonstrated job performance in accordance
with Company policy and practice.

 

The
Company offers an executive benefit program in which you will be able to
participate, subject to the terms of eligibility for the individual benefit
plans. Those plans include a 401(k) program, major medical benefits,
company paid life insurance and other welfare benefit packages. You will
receive (4) weeks of paid vacation each calendar year subject to the
restrictions of your job requirements. Please be aware that Company’s vacation
policy does not allow carryover from year to year. Therefore, if the four weeks
are not taken they are forfeited each year.

 

As
an executive of the Company, you will be eligible to participate in the Company’s
performance incentive plan at fifty percent (50%) of your salary as follows:
50% of your annual salary will be paid upon achievement of the “minimum target”,
100% of your annual salary will be paid upon achievement of the “target” and
150% of your annual salary will be paid upon achievement of the “maximum target”.
The program targets are set by the compensation committee annually and are
typically based on the attainment of company performance towards EBITDA targets and your individual performance toward goals
mutually set between you and your immediate manager. Actual incentive payments
will be paid yearly, usually at the end of the first quarter of each year,
after Board approval. As with other executive benefit programs, eligibility and
participation are subject to the specific provisions of the plan.

 

As
an executive, you will be eligible to participate in the employee stock option
plan. Subject to the terms and conditions of that plan, you will receive an
initial grant as shares are made available. Under the current plan provisions,
the shares vest at a rate of twenty percent (20%) per year of service with the
Company. They will be 100% vested at the end of five (5) years employment.
Nothing in this provision shall act as a guarantee of any specific value of the
Company stock other than the value described in the stock plan itself.

 

Your
employment with the Company will be “at will,” meaning that either you or the
Company will be entitled to terminate your employment at any time and for any
reason, with or without cause. Except as set forth in the following sentence,
in the event the Company terminates your employment other than for “cause,” you
will be paid severance equal to one-year salary at your then current salary payable
in bi-weekly installments. For purposes of this Agreement “cause” shall mean
termination for: (1) a repeated refusal to company with a lawful directive
of the Chief Executive Officer, (2) serious misconduct, dishonesty or
disloyalty directly related to the performance of duties for the Company, which
results from a willful act or omission and which is materially injurious to the
operations, financial condition or business reputation of the Company or any
significant subsidiary thereof; (3) being convicted (or entering into a
plea bargain admitting criminal guilt) in any criminal proceeding that may have
an adverse impact on the Company’s reputation and standing in the community; (4) willful
and continued failure to substantially perform your duties under this
Agreement; or (5) any other material breach of this Agreement. In the
event of termination for cause, you will be entitled to any unpaid salary
through the date of termination, plus any earned and accrued unused vacation
pay or deferred compensation payments. You will not be entitled to any other
compensation from the Company, including, without limitations, severance pay.

 

You
will be reimbursed for all normal business expenses in accordance to Company
policy.

 

This
letter is intended to memorialize the offer of employment provided by the
Company and if these terms are acceptable, to create an at-will employment
relationship under these terms. Nothing in this letter is intended or shall
have the effect of modifying or amending the terms, conditions or requirements
of any benefit plan, retirement plan or welfare plan or 

 

 

arrangement offered by the Company. During your
employment, you will remain subject to, and be required to abide by, all terms,
conditions and requirements of the policies and practices dictated by the
Company for executive employees.

Re:          Addendum to Offer of
Employment letter dated January 31, 2006

 

Dear Chuck:

 

This letter will confirm the change to the severance provisions found
in second sentence of the sixth paragraph of your Offer of Employment Letter from
Jim Rizzo dated January 31, 2006.

 

The second sentence of the sixth paragraph of your Offer of Employment
Letter is hereby replaced in its entirety by the following two paragraphs:

 

“In the event your employment with Duane Reade Inc. (the “Company”)
is terminated other than for “cause” between April 1, 2008 and April 1,
2011, you will be entitled to receive severance payments for a period of 24
months following the effective date of such termination.  The total amount of your severance payments in
such event will be equal to two (2) times your annual base salary at the
rate in effect at the time of termination, payable in equal bi-weekly
installments over a period of twenty-four (24) months immediately following
your termination of employment in accordance with the Company’s usual payroll
practices.

 

In the event your employment with the Company is terminated after April 1,
2011, you will be entitled to receive severance payments for a period of 12
months following the effective date of such termination.  The total amount of your severance payments in
such event will be equal to one (1) times your annual base salary at the
rate in effect at the time of termination, payable in equal bi-weekly installments
over a period of twelve (12) months immediately following your termination of
employment in accordance with the Company’s usual payroll practices.”

 

It is the intention of you and the Company that any severance paid to
you under your Offer of Employment Letter (as amended hereby) is not to be construed
as “deferred compensation” (as defined under Section 409A of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as 

 

 

amended (“Section 409A”))
and that the restrictions and possible delays in payment that could be imposed
under 409A should not apply.  However,
notwithstanding the foregoing, if counsel to the Company reasonably concludes
that it is reasonably necessary to avoid additional or accelerated taxation
pursuant to Section 409A in respect of one or more payments to which you
are entitled pursuant to the Offer of Employment Letter (as amended hereby),
then you shall not receive any such payments until the first regular payroll
date which occurs at least six (6) months following the date of your
termination, at which time you shall receive a single lump sum payment for all
amounts that would have been payable in respect of the period preceding such
date but for the delay imposed on account of Section 409A, and the
remainder of such payments shall thereafter be paid in equal bi-monthly
installments for the remainder of the two-year or one-year payment period, as
applicable.  In furtherance of the intent
of this paragraph, each payment or installment shall be treated as a separate
payment pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii) in
order to maximize the application of payments during the “short term deferral
period” under Section 409A.

 

Your Offer of Employment Letter (as amended hereby) and this Addendum
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the
State of New York applicable to contracts made and performed wholly within the
State of New York, without giving effect to the conflict of laws provisions
thereof.

 

Except as expressly modified hereby, the provisions of your Offer of
Employment Letter are and shall remain in full force and effect.

 

Sincerely,

 

	
  /s/ JOHN LEDERER

Dear
Joseph:

 

This letter will confirm an offer of employment to you
by Duane Reade Inc. (the “Company.”)

 

Terms of Employment.
Your initial assignment will be as Senior Vice President, Chief Merchandising
Officer, reporting directly to Mr. John A. Lederer, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer.  In such position, you
will have such authorities, responsibilities and duties customarily exercised
by a person holding that position, including, without limitation,
responsibility for the Company’s merchandising and marketing activities,
including all aspects of such. You will be based at our headquarters office
located at 440 Ninth Avenue, New York, NY.

 

Subject to the terms and conditions of this offer
letter, this Agreement shall be effective for a term commencing on the later
of: (i) one day following the date on which your employment with your previous
employer is terminated and (ii) the date on which the United States
Citizenship and Immigration Services issues a Notice approving the petition
(the “Visa Petition”) of the Company on your behalf authorizing admission into
the United States in “O” visa classification as an “alien who has extraordinary
ability” in business permitting you to be legally employed within the United
States (the “Effective Date”) and ending on the fourth (4th) anniversary of the Effective
Date (the “Initial Term”); provided, however, that such term will be
automatically extended for successive twelve (12) month periods (the Initial
Term together with any extension shall be referred to hereinafter as the “Employment
Term”) unless, no later than ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the
Initial Term or any extension thereof, you or the Company provides written
notice to the other party that your Employment Term will not be so extended, in
which case your employment will terminate as of the expiration of the
Employment Term, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the other
provisions of this offer letter. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Visa Petition is denied, this
offer letter shall be of no force and effect and shall be null and void ab initio, except for the provisions of the paragraph
entitled ‘Special Payments’ below.

 

Executive Offices:   440 9th Avenue, New York, NY 10001

Telephone 212-273-5704       FAX:  917-351-0392

 

 

Your initial salary will be at an annual rate of
$460,000.00, to be paid in bi-weekly installments of $17,692.31, subject to
annual review by Mr. Lederer. 
Future salary increases will be at the discretion of the Company and
based on demonstrated job performance in accordance with Company policy and
practice.

 

The Company offers an executive benefit program in
which you will be able to participate, subject to the terms of eligibility for
the individual benefit plans.  Those
plans include a 401(k) program, major medical benefits, Company paid life
and disability programs and other welfare benefit packages.  You will receive four (4) weeks of paid
vacation each calendar year subject to restrictions of your job
requirements.  Please be aware that
Company’s vacation policy does not allow carryover of vacation from year to
year.  Therefore, if the four weeks are
not taken they are forfeited each year.

 

As a senior executive of the Company, you will be
eligible to participate in the Company’s performance incentive plan and will
have the opportunity to receive an annual cash bonus pursuant to the terms of
that plan of between fifty percent (50%) and one hundred and fifty percent
(150%) of your annual salary rate, determined as follows:  50% of your annual salary will be paid upon
achievement of the “minimum target,” 100% of your annual salary will be paid
upon achievement of the “target,” 150% of your annual salary will be paid upon
achievement of the “maximum target” and no bonus will be paid if the “minimum
target” is not achieved.  The amount of
your bonus will be determined based on a straight-line interpolation for
achievement between the “minimum target” and “maximum target”.  The plan targets are set by the Company’s
Board of Directors and compensation committee annually and are typically based
on the attainment of Company performance towards EBITDA targets and your
individual performance towards goals mutually set between you and the Chief
Executive Officer.  It is anticipated
that with respect to the Company, the “minimum target” will require achievement
of 95% of the annual EBITDA targets, the “target” will require achievement of
100% of the annual EBITDA targets, and the “maximum target” will require
achievement of 105% of the annual EBITDA targets.  Subject to your employment with the Company
for a period of at least twelve (12) months, you will be entitled to receive a
guaranteed minimum bonus with respect to the twelve (12) month period following
the Effective Date equal to 100% of your base salary, which will be divided
pro-rata between your bonus for 2008 and your bonus for 2009 to reflect the
portion of 2008 following the Effective Date during which you were employed by
the Company.  Actual incentive payments
will be paid yearly on the same date that the Company makes such payments to
other members of its senior management, usually at the end of the first quarter
of the year immediately following the year for which the bonus is payable,
after Board approval and subject to you remaining employed with the Company
through the close of the fiscal year in respect of which the annual bonus is to
be paid and having not given or received a notice of termination before the
close of the fiscal year in respect of which the annual bonus is to be
paid.  As with other executive benefits
programs, eligibility and participation are subject to the specific provisions
of the plan.

 

As an executive, you will be eligible to participate
in the Company’s 2004 Management Stock Option Plan.  Subject to the terms and conditions of that
plan, on the Effective Date you will receive an initial grant of options to acquire
fifty thousand (50,000) shares of Company stock at an exercise price of one
hundred dollars ($100.00 per share) (the “Options”).

 

2

 

Subject to your continued employment, 60% of the Options (the “Service
Options”) will vest at a rate of twenty-five percent (25%) per year of service
with the Company, such that those Options will be 100% vested at the end of
four (4) years employment.  The
remaining 40% of the Options (the “Performance Options”) will vest at a rate of
twenty-five percent (25%) per year of service with the Company, subject to both
your continued employment and the achievement of annual EBITDA targets by the
Company.  Notwithstanding the preceding
sentence, if any portion of the Options fail to vest because the annual EBITDA
targets are not attained for a given fiscal year, such portion of the Options
may still subsequently vest and become exercisable if the Company achieves the
cumulative EBITDA targets set with respect to a later fiscal year.  The grant of the Options is conditioned upon
and subject to you becoming a party to the Company’s Stockholders
Agreement.  The Options will, in
accordance with the terms of the Plan pursuant to which such Options are
issued, be subject to such standard equitable adjustments as the Company deems
necessary or appropriate to prevent substantial enlargement or dilution of your
rights in the event of certain corporate transactions and extraordinary events,
including a grant of extraordinary dividends. 
Nothing in this provision shall act as a guarantee of any specific value
of the Company stock other than the value described in the stock plan
itself.  In connection with an initial
public offering of the Company stock, the Company reserves the right to convert
the Options into options to purchase equity securities of an entity other than
the Company, if such entity will become the public company, and such equitable
adjustments will be made to the terms and conditions of your Options as the
Company deems necessary or appropriate.

 

Subject to your continued employment with the Company
through the consummation of a change in control, the Service Options will vest
as necessary to enable you to exercise your rights pursuant to a ‘Tag-Along
Sale’ and to satisfy the Company’s rights with respect to a ‘Drag-Along Sale’
(in each case, pursuant to the Company’s Stockholders Agreement).  All unvested Performance Options will vest
upon a change in control of the Company if, and only if, such change in control
yields for the Company’s controlling stockholder and its affiliates a certain
minimum cash-on-cash return on the investment in the Company made by Company’s
controlling stockholder and its affiliates, provided you are employed by the
Company on the date that such change in control is consummated.

 

As a senior executive of the Company, you will be
required to enter into a restrictive covenants agreement which will include,
without limitation: (i) an ongoing covenant not to disclose confidential
information of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) an ongoing
covenant not to make disparaging statements of any kind or in any form about
the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (iii) a covenant not to solicit
any employees or customers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries during the
Employment Term and for a period of twenty four (24) months following
termination of your employment, and (iv) a covenant not to compete,
directly or indirectly, with the Company or any of its subsidiaries, including,
without limitation, by providing services of any kind or in any capacity for
any company engaged in a business similar to that of the Company in, or within
a one hundred (100) mile radius of, the New York City metro vicinity and in any
other geographic area in which the Company then has plans to expand within the
following twelve (12) months, during the Employment Term and for a period of
eighteen (18) months following termination of your employment.  You acknowledge and agree that the Company
will be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief (without the
necessity of proving actual damages) as well as an equitable accounting of all
earnings, profits and other 

 

3

 

benefits arising from any violation by you of these restrictive
covenants, in addition to any other legal or equitable rights or remedies to
which the Company may be entitled.

 

Your employment with the Company will be “at will,”
meaning that either you or the Company will be entitled to terminate your employment
at any time and for any reason or no reason, with or without cause.  In the event the Company terminates your
employment other than for “cause,” you will be paid severance (“Regular
Severance”) equal to either:

 

(i)            two
years of your base salary determined using your then-current salary rate in
effect at the time of your termination, payable in bi-weekly installments
(should such termination occur prior to the second anniversary of the Effective
Date); or

 

(ii)           one
year of your base salary determined using your then-current salary rate in
effect at the time of your termination plus the annualized average of the two
annual bonuses paid to you prior to your termination (without regard to any
portion of the guaranteed minimum bonus applicable to 2008 or 2009), payable in
bi-weekly installments (should such termination occur on or after the second
anniversary of the Effective Date).

 

In addition, in the event the Company terminates your
employment other than for “cause,” the Company will reimburse you for any
documented outplacement and moving expenses back to the Toronto metro vicinity,
up to $25,000.00 in aggregate.  The
Company’s payment of Regular Severance will be subject to both your execution
of a general release of claims against the Company and its subsidiaries in a
form to be provided by the Company and your continuing compliance with all
restrictive covenants to which you are subject under this offer letter, the
restrictive covenants agreement, or otherwise. 
For purposes of this Agreement “cause” shall mean termination for:  (1) a failure to follow lawful
instructions of the Chief Executive Officer, (2) serious misconduct,
dishonesty or disloyalty which results from a willful act or omission and which
is materially injurious (or if public could be materially injurious) to the
reputation or financial interests of the Company, including without limitation,
sexual or racial harassment of any employee of the Company, any of its
subsidiaries or of any person engaged in business with the Company or any of
its subsidiaries; (3) being convicted of (or entering into a plea bargain
admitting criminal guilt to) any crime; (4) willful and continued failure
to substantially perform your duties under this Agreement; (5) commission
of any act of fraud or embezzlement against the Company or any subsidiary
thereof; (6) material breach of any covenant or Company policy regarding
the protection of the Company’s business interests, including, without
limitation, policies addressing confidentiality and non-competition; (7) a
breach in any material respect of your representations and warranties made in
this offer letter; or (8) any other material breach of this
Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt,
non-renewal of the Employment Term by the Company shall not trigger Regular
Severance.  In the event of termination
of your employment for any reason, with or without cause, you will be entitled
to any earned but unpaid salary through the date of termination, plus any
earned and accrued unused vacation pay, any accrued but unpaid business
expenses, and any other vested and accrued compensation and benefits payable in
accordance with the applicable Company policy or plan.  If your employment is terminated by the
Company for cause, you will not be entitled to any other 

 

4

 

compensation from the Company, including, without limitation, severance
pay, and any unpaid bonus together with all of your outstanding vested and
unvested Options will be immediately forfeited.

 

Should you elect to terminate your employment with the
Company for “good reason,” you will be entitled to receive Regular Severance as
you would if the Company terminates your employment other than for “cause.”  For purposes of this Agreement, “good reason”
shall mean: (i) the assignment to you of any duties materially and
adversely inconsistent with your position as Chief Merchandising Officer or (ii) a
reduction in your base salary or target annual cash bonus opportunity, provided,
however, that any event described in clauses (i) or (ii) shall
not constitute good reason unless you have given the Company prior written
notice of such event and the Company has not cured such event (if capable of
cure) within (30) days following receipt of such notice.  For the avoidance of doubt, non-renewal of
the Employment Term by the Company shall not constitute “good reason.”  Additionally, at any time prior to the first
anniversary of the Effective Date, the Company in its sole discretion may cause
not to commence, limit or temporarily suspend your official duties and
responsibilities, and that shall not constitute “good reason” (provided however
that during any such period you shall remain an active employee and shall
continue to receive your compensation and other benefits).  Should you elect to terminate your employment
with the Company other than for “good reason” prior to the second anniversary
of the Effective Date, you will be required to repay the Company any difference
between your actual annual bonus payment(s) and what you otherwise would
have received without any guaranteed minimum bonus.

 

You will be reimbursed for all normal business
expenses in accordance with Company policy. 
The Company will reimburse you for any documented expenses relating to
tax advice and tax filing up to $10,000.00 in aggregate for the period prior to
the first anniversary of the Effective Date and up to $5,000.00 per annum for
each subsequent twelve (12) month period. 
The Company will provide relocation assistance in the amount of
$30,000.00 to cover all normal and customary expenses (i.e. moving expense,
closing costs etc.).  You agree that you
will endeavor to relocate to the New York City metro vicinity within three (3) months
of the Effective Date.  During the first
three (3) months following the Effective Date, the Company will reimburse
you for reasonable temporary housing and reasonable travel expenses to and from
the New York City metro vicinity for you, your life partner and your immediate
family.  Thereafter, the Company will
reimburse you up to $10,000.00 per annum for any documented travel expenses
between the Toronto metro vicinity and the New York City metro vicinity for
you, your life partner and your immediate family.  For the avoidance of doubt, none of the
payments referenced in this paragraph or elsewhere in this letter will be
grossed up for tax unless specifically noted.

 

Representations and
Warranties. Including
the two letters to you from your prior employer, dated April 16, 2007,
which you have disclosed to the Company in advance of the Effective
Date, you represent and warrant to the Company that you are not a party to or
bound by any enforceable agreement, covenant or other obligation with any other
person or entity which would restrict or otherwise interfere with your ability
to commence employment with the Company and perform your duties hereunder.  You further represent and warrant that you
will not disclose or use in connection with your employment with the Company
any information or trade secrets which constitute ‘confidential information’ or
‘proprietary information’ (or any similar 

 

5

 

term) as defined in any agreement, covenant or other
obligation that you are a party to or bound by with any other person or entity,
including, without limitation, your previous employer, to the extent, if any, that you are in
possession of such information. 
You acknowledge that you have been represented by counsel in connection
with the negotiation of the terms of this offer letter and the commencement of
your employment with the Company.

 

Special Payments. Subject to your
continued compliance with the representations and warranties contained in the
previous paragraph, in the event that you are unable to commence or continue
employment with the Company due to any injunction enforced against you by any
person or entity other than the Company, including, without limitation, your
previous employer, as a result of your breach of any restrictive covenants to
which you are subject and which you have disclosed to the Company in advance of
the date of this agreement, the Company will (a) provide you with a
severance/indemnity payment in an amount equal to $690,000.00 payable in
bi-weekly installments (the “Special Severance”), provided, however,
that, if so requested by the Company, you agree that for a period of up to six (6) months
following the date of any such injunction you will use your best efforts to
assist the Company (in such manner as reasonably requested by the Company) in
overturning such injunction (including, without limitation, not accepting
employment with another employer) and the Company shall not have any obligation
to continue to pay you any remaining unpaid portion of the Special Severance if
you accept employment with another employer, and (b) pay you any costs or
expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred in
connection with the defense of any suit, action or proceeding brought by your
previous employer in connection with the Company’s employment or proposed employment
of you (and will pay the amount of any damages for which you are liable as
determined by a court in such suit, action or proceeding).  The provisions of the preceding sentence
shall remain applicable even if the Visa Petition is denied.  The Company reserves the right to terminate
your employment (and pay you the Special Severance in lieu of the Regular
Severance) if you become a party to any litigation arising out of or in
connection with the attempted enforcement of any restrictive covenants by any person
or entity other than the Company, including, without limitation, your previous
employer.  For the avoidance of doubt, if
in any instance the Special Severance is payable to you then you will not be
entitled to receive the Regular Severance. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will be required to actively seek
other employment and otherwise mitigate the obligations of the Company under
this paragraph and any amounts payable to you by the Company pursuant to this
paragraph will be reduced by any remuneration attributable to any subsequent
employment you may obtain (including, without limitation, any compensation
related to consulting services or other services you may provide) during the
eighteen (18) month period following the initial enforcement date of any such
injunction, the denial of the Visa Petition or the Company’s termination of
your employment, as applicable.

 

Miscellaneous. This offer letter
will be governed by, and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the state
of New York, without regard to the conflict of law provisions of any
jurisdiction which would cause the application of any law other than that of
the state of New York.  Any controversy
or claim arising out of or relating to this offer letter (other than with
respect to any restrictive covenants to which you are subject), or the breach
thereof, will be settled by arbitration administered by one arbitrator of the
American Arbitration Association in 

 

6

 

accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules then
in effect.  Unless otherwise awarded by
the arbitrator, each party will be responsible for its own fees and expenses.

 

This offer letter is intended to memorialize the offer
of employment provided by the Company and if these terms are acceptable, to
create an at-will employment relationship under these terms until such time as
a mutually agreeable definitive employment agreement is entered into by you and
the Company reflecting the terms of this offer letter and other customary terms.  Nothing in this offer letter is intended or
shall have the effect of modifying or amending the terms, conditions or
requirements of any benefit plan, retirement plan or welfare plan or
arrangement offered by the Company. 
During your employment, you will remain subject to, and be required to
abide by, all terms, conditions and requirements of the policies and practices
dictated by the Company for executive employees.

 

We all look forward to
you joining our team in the near future. 
Please do not hesitate to call me if you have any questions.
