vision coverage for the Effective Period had the Eligible Employee remained employed, based on rates in effect as of the date of the Severance Event. 
 3.7 Acceleration of Restricted Share Awards. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or any other Company Group plan, arrangement or agreement to the contrary: 

(a) Each Eligible Employee who incurs a Severance Event during the Effective Period shall immediately on the Severance Date become fully
vested in all outstanding restricted shares that were unvested prior to the Severance Date. 

  
 5 

 (b) In the event that the Change in Control occurs and either (i) the outstanding
restricted shares are not assumed, converted or replaced in connection with the Change in Control or (ii) immediately after the Change in Control, neither the Company’s nor its successor’s or parent’s shares are listed on the New
York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq, each Eligible Employee shall immediately on the date of the Change in Control become fully vested in all outstanding restricted shares held by the Eligible Employee immediately prior to the Change in Control.

 3.8 Offset of Severance Payments and Other Benefits. If the Company Group is obligated by any agreement, severance
policy, or other policy, plan, program or applicable law to pay to an Eligible Employee severance pay, a termination indemnity, notice pay, or the like, then, any Severance Payments and other benefits payable under Section 3 hereof shall be
reduced to the extent permitted by Section 409A by the amount of such Eligible Employee’s severance pay, termination indemnity, notice pay or the like, as applicable, except that the Severance Payments and other benefits payable under
Section 3 hereof shall not be reduced by the amount of notice pay or pay in lieu of notice provided for in Section 2 hereof. 
 3.9 Section 409A. It is intended that payments and benefits under this Plan comply with Section 409A, to the extent subject thereto, and accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, the
Plan shall be interpreted and administered to be in compliance therewith. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, an Eligible Employee shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Company Group for purposes of
any payments under the Plan which are subject to Section 409A until the Eligible Employee has incurred a “separation from service” from the Company Group within the meaning of Section 409A. Each amount to be paid or benefit to be
provided under the Plan shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A. 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 the Plan during the six-month period immediately following the Eligible
Employee’s separation from service shall instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six (6) months following your separation from service (or, if earlier, the Eligible Employee’s date of death). To the extent
required to avoid an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, amounts reimbursable to the Eligible Employee under the Plan shall be paid to the Eligible Employee on or before the last day of the year following the year in which the
expense was incurred and the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement (and in kind benefits provided to the Eligible Employee) during one year may not affect amounts reimbursable or provided in any subsequent year. The Company Group makes no
representation that any or all of the payments described in the Plan will be exempt from or comply with Section 409A and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A from applying to any such payment. To the extent that any amount payable
under an Eligible Employee’s employment agreement, if any, as in effect on the Effective Date of the Plan constitutes deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code, such portion of the Severance Payments shall instead be paid in the
form provided for in the Eligible Employee’s employment agreement.

 SECTION 4. PLAN ADMINISTRATION. 

4.1 The Plan Administrator shall administer the Plan and may interpret the Plan, prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations under
the Plan and make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan, subject to all of the provisions of the Plan. Any reasonable determination made in good faith by the Plan Administrator in carrying out,
administering or construing the Plan shall be final and binding for all purposes and upon all interested persons and their respective heirs, successors, and legal representatives. 

4.2 The Plan Administrator may delegate any of its duties hereunder to such person or persons from time to time as it may designate.

 4.3 The Plan Administrator is empowered, on behalf of the Plan, to engage accountants, legal counsel and such other personnel

and such persons shall have no other duties, obligations or responsibilities under the Plan. Such persons shall exercise no discretionary authority or discretionary control respecting the management of the Plan. All reasonable expenses thereof shall
be borne by the Company. 
 4.4 In no event shall the Plan Administrator be personally liable for any action, determination or
interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan. The Plan Administrator shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against any cost or expense (including counsel fees) reasonably incurred by the Plan Administrator or liability
(including any sum paid in settlement of a claim with the approval of the Company) arising out of any act or omission to act in connection with this Plan, unless arising out of the Plan Administrator’s own fraud or bad faith. Such
indemnification shall be in addition to any rights of indemnification the Plan Administrator may have as an officer or director or otherwise under the bylaws of the Company. 
 SECTION 5. RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS. During the period of the Eligible Employee’s employment with the Company Group, the Eligible Employee has had access to secret and confidential
information, knowledge or data relating to the Company or any Affiliate, and their respective businesses, and has met and developed relationships with potential and existing suppliers, financing sources, clients, customers and employees of the
Company or any Affiliate. In light of the foregoing: 
 5.1 Noncompetition; Nonsolicitation. During the period of the
Eligible Employee’s employment with the Company Group and the Restrictive Period (as defined in Exhibit A hereof), the Eligible Employee shall not: 
 (a) Directly or indirectly (whether as principal, agent, independent contractor, partner, member, manager, officer, director or otherwise) own, manage, operate, control, participate in, perform services
for, make any investment in or otherwise carry on, any business that is competitive with any business engaged in or conducted by the Company or any Affiliate, or any business that the Company or any Affiliate proposes to engage in or conduct, at
such time, including the business of owning, leasing (as lessor, sublessor, lessee or sublessee) or managing container ships, shipping containers or intermodal chassis; or 

  
 7 

 (b) Directly or indirectly, engage in the recruiting, soliciting or inducing of any
nonclerical employee or employees of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate their employment with, or otherwise cease their relationship with, the Company or any Affiliate, or in hiring or assisting another person or entity to hire any
nonclerical employee of the Company or any Affiliate, or any person who within six (6) months before had been a nonclerical employee of the Company or any Affiliate and were recruited or solicited for such employment or other retention while an
employee of the Company Group (other than any of the foregoing activities engaged in with the prior written approval of the applicable member of the Company Group); or 
 (c) Directly or indirectly, solicit, induce or encourage or attempt to persuade any agent, supplier or customer of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate such agency or business relationship;

 Nothing contained in this Plan shall limit or otherwise affect the ability of the Eligible Employee to own not more than 1.0% of the
outstanding capital stock of any entity that is engaged in a business competitive with the Company Group, provided that such investment is a passive investment and such Eligible Employee is not directly or indirectly involved in the management or
operation of such business or otherwise providing consulting services to such business. In the event of a Passive Investment Correction (as defined in Exhibit A hereof), the Company Group will not seek relief for violation of this 1.0% limitation.

 5.2 Disparaging Comments. During the period of the Eligible Employee’s employment with the Company Group and
thereafter, the Eligible Employee shall not make any disparaging or defamatory comments regarding the Company Group or, after termination of his or her employment relationship with the Company Group, make any comments concerning any aspect of the
termination of their relationship. The obligations of the Eligible Employee under this Section 5.2 shall not apply to disclosures required by applicable law, regulation or order of any court or governmental agency. 

5.3 Confidentiality. During the period of the Eligible Employee’s employment with the Company Group and thereafter, the
Eligible Employee shall hold and keep confidential all secret and confidential information, knowledge or data relating to the Company Group, and their respective businesses, including any confidential information as to customers of the Company Group
(i) obtained by the Eligible Employee during employment by the Company Group and (ii) not otherwise public knowledge or known within the applicable industry (the “Confidential Information”). The Eligible Employee shall
not, without prior written consent of the Company, unless compelled pursuant to the order of a court or other governmental or legal body having jurisdiction over such matter, communicate or divulge any Confidential Information to anyone other than
the Company and those designated by it. In the event the Eligible Employee is compelled by order of a court or other governmental or legal body to communicate or divulge any such Confidential Information to anyone other than the foregoing, the
Eligible Employee will promptly notify the Company of any such order and will cooperate fully with the Company in protecting such Confidential Information to the extent possible under applicable

  
 8 

 
law. Upon termination of employment with the Company Group, or at any time as the Company may request, the Eligible Employee will promptly deliver to the Company, as requested, all documents
(whether prepared by the Company, any Affiliate, the Eligible Employee or a third party) relating to the Company, any Affiliate or any of their businesses or property which the Eligible Employee may possess or have under the Eligible Employee’s
direction or control other than documents provided to the Eligible Employee as a participant in any employee benefit plan, policy or program of the Company or any agreement by and between the Eligible Employee and the Company Group with regard to
the Eligible Employee’s employment or severance. 
 5.4 Blue Penciling. In the event that a court of competent
jurisdiction determines that any provision of Section 5 hereof or the application thereof is unenforceable in whole or in part, the Company and the Eligible Employee agree that said court, in making such determination, shall have the power to
reduce the duration and scope of such provision to the extent necessary to make it enforceable, and that the provision in its reduced form shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. 

  
 9 

 SECTION 6. SECTION 280G. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or any other plan or agreement to
the contrary, in the event that any payment or benefit received or to be received by an Eligible Employee (whether pursuant to the terms of the Plan or any other plan, arrangement or agreement) (all such payments and benefits, the “Total
Payments”) would not be deductible (in whole or in part) by the member of the Company Group making such payment or providing such benefits as a result of Section 280G of the Code, then, to the extent necessary to make such portion of the
Total Payments deductible, the portion of the Total Payments that do not constitute deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A shall first be reduced (if necessary, to zero), and all other Total Payments shall thereafter be
reduced (if necessary, to zero) with cash payments being reduced before non-cash payments, and payments to be paid last being reduced first, but only if (i) the net amount of such Total Payments, as so reduced (and after subtracting the net
amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such reduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such reduced Total Payments) is greater than or equal to
(ii) the net amount of such Total Payments without such reduction (but after subtracting the net amount of federal, state and local income taxes on such Total Payments and the amount of Excise Tax to which the Eligible Employee would be subject
in respect of such unreduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phase out of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such unreduced Total Payments). 
 SECTION 7. PLAN MODIFICATION OR TERMINATION. The Plan may not be terminated during the Effective Period. The Plan may be amended by the Board at any time; provided, however, that
during the Effective Period, the Plan may not be amended if such amendment would in any manner be adverse to the interests of any Eligible Employee without the consent of the affected Eligible Employee, except that, notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Plan Administrator may amend the Plan at any time and in any manner necessary to comply with applicable law, including, but not limited to Section 409A. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) any action taken by the Company Group or the Plan
Administrator during the Effective Period to cause an Eligible Employee to no longer be designated as such or to decrease the payments or benefits for which an Eligible Employee is eligible, and (ii) any amendment to this Section 7 during
the Effective Period shall be treated as an amendment to the Plan which is adverse to the interests of any Eligible Employee. 
 SECTION 8.
GENERAL PROVISIONS. 
 8.1 Except as otherwise provided herein or by law, no right or interest of any Eligible Employee
under the Plan shall be assignable or transferable, in whole or in part, either directly or by operation of law or otherwise, including without limitation by execution, levy, garnishment, attachment, pledge or in any manner; no attempted assignment
or transfer thereof shall be effective; and no right or interest of any Eligible Employee under the Plan shall be liable for, or subject to, any obligation or liability of such Eligible Employee. When a payment is due under this Plan to a severed
employee who is unable to care for his or her affairs, payment may be made directly to his or her legal guardian or personal representative. 
 8.2 Neither the establishment of the Plan, nor any modification thereof, nor the creation of any fund, trust or account, nor the payment of any benefits shall be construed as giving any Eligible Employee,
or any person whomsoever, the right to be retained in the service of the Company Group, and all Eligible Employees shall remain subject to discharge to the same extent as if the Plan had never been adopted. 

  
 10 

 8.3 If any provision of this Plan shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or
unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions hereof, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such provisions had not been included. 
 8.4 This Plan shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns of the parties, including each Eligible Employee, present and future, and any
successor to the Company. If a severed employee shall die, all accrued but unpaid amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Plan to the executor, personal representative or administrators of the
severed employee’s estate. 
 8.5 The headings and captions herein are provided for reference and convenience only, shall
not be considered part of the Plan, and shall not be employed in the construction of the Plan. 
 8.6 The Plan shall not be
required to be funded unless such funding is authorized by the Board. Regardless of whether the Plan is funded, no Eligible Employee shall have any right to, or interest in, any assets of any Company which may be applied by the Company to the
payment of benefits or other rights under this Plan. 
 8.7 All notices or other communications under this Plan shall be given in
writing and shall be deemed duly given and received on the third full business day following the day of the mailing thereof by registered or certified mail or when delivered personally or sent by facsimile transmission as follows: 

(a) if to the Eligible Employee, at the address of the Eligible Employee in the Company Group’s personnel records; 

(b) if to the Company Group, at: 
 SeaCube Container Leasing Ltd.

Park Ridge, NJ 07656 
 Attention: General Counsel 
 8.8 This Plan shall be construed and enforced
according to the laws of the State of Delaware to the extent not preempted by federal law or other applicable local law, which shall otherwise control. 
 8.9 All benefits hereunder shall be reduced by applicable tax withholding and shall be subject to applicable tax reporting, as determined by the Plan Administrator, or as required by applicable law.

  
 11 

 8.10 In the event that an Eligible Employee breaches Section 5 hereof, the Company
shall be entitled, in addition to any other rights and remedies, to cease making any payments to the Eligible Employee under the Plan, and the Eligible Employee shall be obligated to repay any amounts already paid to pursuant to the Plan. Due to the
fact that damages to the Company Group will be difficult to ascertain and remedies at law to the Company Group will be inadequate and for other reasons, the Company Group will be irreparably damaged in the event that the obligations of Eligible
Employees under Section 5 hereof are not specifically enforced. Accordingly, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of the terms of Section 5 hereof, the Company Group shall, in addition to all other rights and remedies, be
entitled (without any bond or other security being required) to a temporary and/or permanent injunction, without showing any actual damage or that monetary damages would not provide an adequate remedy, and/or a decree for specific performance, in
accordance with the provisions hereof. 
 SECTION 9. CLAIMS, INQUIRIES, APPEALS. 

9.1 Applications for Benefits and Inquiries. Any application for benefits, inquiries about the Plan or inquiries about present or
future rights under the Plan must be submitted to the Plan Administrator in writing, as follows:

notice of the extension will be furnished to the applicant before the end of the initial ninety (90) day period. 
 This notice of extension
will describe the special circumstances necessitating the additional time and the date by which the Plan Administrator is to render his or her decision on the application. If written notice of denial of the application for benefits is not furnished

denied (or deemed denied), in whole or in part, may appeal the denial by submitting a request for a review to the Plan Administrator within sixty (60) days after the application is denied (or deemed denied). The Plan Administrator will give the
applicant (or his or her representative) an opportunity to review pertinent documents in preparing

documents or other material as he or she may find necessary or appropriate in making his or her review. 
 9.4 Decision on
Review. The Plan Administrator will act on each request for review within sixty (60) days after receipt of the request, unless special circumstances require an extension of time (not to exceed an additional sixty (60) days), for
processing the request for a review. If an extension for review is required, written notice of the extension will be furnished to the applicant within the initial sixty (60) day period. The Plan Administrator will give prompt, written notice of
his or her decision to the applicant. In the event that the Plan Administrator confirms the denial of the application for benefits in whole or in part, the notice will outline, in a manner calculated to be understood by the applicant, the specific
Plan provisions upon which the decision is based. If written notice of the Plan Administrator’s decision is not given to the applicant within the time prescribed in this Section 9.4 the application will be deemed denied on review.

ERISA, as necessary and appropriate in carrying out his or her responsibilities in reviewing benefit claims. The Plan Administrator may require an applicant who wishes to submit additional information in connection with an appeal from the denial (or
deemed denial) of benefits to do so at the applicant’s own expense.

the application is denied (or the application is deemed denied due to the Plan Administrator’s failure to act on it within the established time period), (iii) has filed a written request for a review of the application in accordance with
the appeal procedure described in Section 9.3 above and (iv) has been notified in writing that the Plan Administrator has denied the appeal (or the appeal is deemed to be denied due to the Plan Administrator’s failure to take any
action on the claim within the time prescribed by Section 9.4 above). 
 SECTION 10. EFFECTIVENESS OF PLAN. 

10.1 The effectiveness of this Plan is contingent upon the occurrence of a Change in Control by December 31, 2013. If for any reason
the Change in Control does not occur on or prior to December 31, 2013, this Plan shall be null and void and of no force and effect. 

  
 13Letter Agreement- Joseph Kwok

 Exhibit 10.2 
 January 18, 2013 
 Joseph Kwok 
 Address on file with SeaCube Container Leasing, Ltd. 
 Dear Mr. Kwok: 

This Letter Agreement sets forth the agreement made this
18th day of January, 2013, by and between SC Acquisitionco
Ltd. (the “Amalgamated Corporation”), SeaCube Container Leasing, Ltd. (the “Company”) and Joseph Kwok (the “Executive”), a member of the management team of the Company, regarding the
Executive’s employment with the Company and ownership of equity in the Amalgamated Corporation in connection with the Agreement and Plan of Amalgamation dated January 18, 2013 by and among 2357575 Ontario Limited, an entity of Ontario
Teachers’ Pension Plan Board (“OTPPB”), Amalgamated Corporation and the Company (the “Merger Agreement”). 
 In connection with the Closing, you will receive certain benefits including, but not limited to, accelerated vesting of your outstanding restricted shares of the Company. You acknowledge that through the
closing of transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Closing”), you will continue to remain bound by the terms of your existing employment agreement with the Company, dated May 13, 2010 (your “Employment
Agreement”) attached hereto as Exhibit A. You hereby agree that you will not resign from the Company without Good Reason (as defined in the Employment Agreement) prior to the Closing. In accordance with the terms of this Letter Agreement,
from and after the Closing, your employment with the Company will continue to be governed by the terms of your Employment Agreement, except that effective as of the Closing: 

 

	 	1.	Subsection (i) of Section 1(a) is deleted in its entirety. All references to the “Ships Agreement” are accordingly deleted.

  

	 	2.	For purposes of Section 1(b), the base salary will be $425,000. 

  

	 	3.	For purposes of Section 1(c), the target for any Performance Bonus will be 100% of your base salary and the maximum will be 175% of your base salary.

  

	 	4.	Section 1(d) of your Employment Agreement is deleted in its entirety and all cross-references thereafter are modified accordingly. 

 

	 	5.	The first sentence of Section 1(c) of your Employment Agreement is amended to remove the reference to Section 1(d). 

 

	 	6.	The definition of “Cause” in Section 1(f)(ii) is restated: 

 “A termination for “Cause” shall mean termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company and its subsidiaries as a result of any of the following: 

 (a) the Executive commits any act of fraud, intentional misrepresentation or serious
misconduct in connection with the business of the Company or any of its affiliates, including, but not limited to, falsifying any documents or agreements (regardless of form); or 

(b) the Executive materially violates any rule or policy of the Company or any of its affiliates (I) for which violation an employee
may be terminated pursuant to the written policies of the Company or any of its affiliates reasonably applicable to such an employee or (II) which violation results in material damage to the Company or any of its affiliates or (III) which, after
written notice to do so, the Executive fails to correct within a reasonable time; or 
 (c) the Executive willfully breaches or
habitually neglects any material aspect of the Executive’s duties assigned to the Executive by the Company or any of its affiliates, which assignment was reasonable in light of the Executive’s position with the Company or its subsidiaries
(all of the foregoing duties, “Duties”); or 
 (d) the Executive fails, after written notice, adequately to perform any
Duties and such failure is reasonably likely to have a material adverse impact upon the Company or any of its affiliates or the operations of any of them; or 
 (e) the Executive materially fails to comply with a direction from the Board or the board of directors (or similar body) of any of the Company’s affiliates with respect to a material matter, which
direction was reasonable in light of the Executive’s position with the Company or its affiliates; or 
 (f) while employed
by the Company or its subsidiaries, and without the written approval of the Board, the Executive performs services for any other corporation or person which competes with the Company or any of its affiliates or otherwise violates Sections 2 or 3
hereof; or 
 (g) the Executive is convicted by a court of competent jurisdiction of a felony (other than a traffic or moving
violation) or any crime involving dishonesty; or 
 (h) any other action or condition that may result in termination of an
employee for cause pursuant to any generally applied standard, of which standard the Executive knew or reasonably should have known, adopted in good faith by the Board or the board of directors (or similar body) of any of the Company’s
affiliates from time to time but prior to such action or condition; or 
 (i) any willful breach by the Executive of his
fiduciary duties as a director of SeaCube, CLI or any of their respective affiliates. 
 In the event that there is a dispute
between the Executive and the Company as to whether “Cause” for termination exists: (x) such termination shall nonetheless be effective and (y) such dispute shall be subject to arbitration in New York, New York using the
commercial rules of the American Arbitration Association.” 
  

	 	7.	In the first sentence of the definition of “Change in Control” in Section 1(f)(iii), “Seacastle Operating Company Ltd. (“Operating”)”
is replaced with “Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan Board (“OTPPB”),” and all references to “Operating” in such Section 1(g)(iii) are replaced with “OTPPB.”

 You and the Company agree that effective as of Closing, the foregoing amendment will be treated as an
amendment to your Employment Agreement. The Company will be instituting a new Key Employee Severance Plan, in which you will be a Tier I participant. OTPPB agrees to honor such Key Employee Severance Plan and keep you as a Tier I participant for at
least two years following the Closing. You agree that this Letter Agreement constitutes assumption of your Employment Agreement for purposes of subpart (e) of the “Good Reason” definition in your Employment Agreement and that
“Good Reason” is not triggered in your Employment Agreement or for purposes of the Company’s Key Employee Severance Plan by or as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (including, without limitation, the
Company’s equity not being publicly traded following the Closing). 
 As an inducement to your continued employment with
the Company after the Closing, you will be granted options in the Amalgamated Corporation upon or as soon as practicable after the Closing covering such number of shares of common stock of the Amalgamated Corporation that represents 33.75% of the
option pool pursuant to a stock option plan and stock option agreement containing terms substantially consistent with the terms set forth in the Management Term Sheet (the “Management Term Sheet”) attached hereto as Exhibit B.
Additionally, you agree that prior to the Closing, you will enter into a subscription agreement to invest a minimum of $2.25 million in the Amalgamated Corporation (the “Co-Investment”) on substantially the same terms as OTPPB,
including those related to dividends, provided your shares will be subject to customary resale restrictions, puts and calls, drags and tags as set forth in a stockholders agreement containing terms substantially consistent with the terms set forth
in the Management Term Sheet. Subject to such actions being achievable in connection with the Closing, your Co-Investment will be made by an automatic deduction from the after-tax proceeds otherwise payable to you from the cash-out of your
restricted shares in the Company, all of which shall vest immediately upon the Closing, and if such proceeds are insufficient, by wire transfer at or as soon as practicable after the Closing. 

This Letter Agreement shall automatically become null and void in the event the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its
terms prior to the Closing occurring. In the event the Merger Agreement terminates prior to the Closing, or, prior thereto, your employment terminates by reason of your death, Disability, by you for Good Reason, or by the Company without Cause (as
such terms are defined in the Employment Agreement), all of the provisions of this Letter Agreement will terminate and there will be no liability of any kind under this letter. For the avoidance of doubt, if, prior to the Closing, you resign your
employment without Good Reason, or your employment is terminated by the Company for Cause, you will still be required to make the Co-Investment. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that you fail to make the
Co-Investment as required by the terms of this Letter Agreement. In the event you fail to make such Co-Investment when required for any or no reason (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise), then it is accordingly agreed that
the Company and OTPPB shall be entitled to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Letter Agreement related to the Co-Investment in any state or federal court sitting in the State of Delaware, without proof of actual damages and
without any requirement to provide any bond or other security. In addition, if your employment terminates for any reason prior to the Closing, you will not receive the options contemplated by the Management Term Sheet. This Letter Agreement shall be
governed by the law of the State of Delaware without regard to conflict of law principles. 
 We look forward to working with
you. Please confirm your acceptance of the foregoing by countersigning below.

 Exhibit A 
 Employment Agreement 
 See Exhibit 10.17 of Amendment No. 2 to SeaCube’s
Registration Statement on Form S-1, filed with the SEC on May 20, 2010. 

  
 A-1

 Exhibit B 
 Management Term Sheet 
 This summary sets forth the terms for the continued employment of
Mr. Kwok (the “Executive”). It is anticipated that the Executive will make an investment in the Surviving Corporation and receive new options in the Surviving Corporation shortly after the Closing, as set forth below. 

 

			
	Employment Terms	  	 Existing employment agreement generally will be honored except that:

 

•      Base salary will be $425,000 per year.

 

•      Annual bonuses will be paid entirely in cash (i.e. no bonus restricted
shares) and will be targeted at 100% of base salary (maximum 175%). Existing employment agreement will be amended accordingly.
  

•      The employment agreement will be amended to remove references to
Seacastle Ships Holdings, Inc.
  

•      Minor changes will be made to the “Cause” and “Change in
Control” definitions to reflect the deal.
  
 Executive will be a Tier I
participant in the Key Employee Severance Plan for at least two years following Closing.
  

	Co-Investment/ Rollover	  	 Executive will invest a minimum of $2.25 million, shares issued at same price as OTPPB shares and will be treated the same as OTPPB
shares (including for dividends), but with customary resale restrictions (i.e. these shares cannot be sold (1) unless and until OTPPB sells its shares or (2) in accordance with the good leaver provisions in the chart that follows).

 
 After five years, Co-Invest shares may be put back to the Company at 20% per year,
subject to continued employment. Provided Executive continues to be employed, the put is cumulative, i.e. if the 20% in year 6 is not put back, 40% may be put back in year 7.
  

	New Options	  	 •      Will be granted options representing 33.75% of the
option pool. The total option pool is expected to consist of 3,988,480 options to purchase shares of the Amalgamated Corporation.
  

•      Options will vest as follows, subject to the good leaver pro-rata
provisions shown below:
  

•      Performance-Based: 50% of the options:

 

•      All performance-based options would be subject to 5-year cliff vesting
(i.e., vest at end of year 5 if performance is met).
  
 •      After five years, performance-based shares may be put back to the Company at 20% in each of years 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10, subject to continued employment. Provided
Executive continues to be employed, the put is cumulative.
  
 •      Time-Based: 50% of the options:
  

•      20% of time-based options vest at the end of year 3, 20% vest at the
end of year 4 and 60% vest at the end of year 5.
  
 •      20% of any time-based shares may be put back at the end of years 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7, subject to continued employment. Provided Executive continues to be employed,
the put is cumulative.
  

•      Pro-rata vesting upon a termination due to death, Disability,
Retirement, termination without Cause or for Good Reason:
  
 •      For time-vested options: entitled to proportionate vesting on an annual basis for each completed year of service (so if terminated 26 months after closing, 2/5 of
the options vest).
  

•      For performance-vested options: entitled to any options for which the
performance metrics were previously met (so if terminated 26 months after closing, and the performance metrics for year 1 and year 2 were met, 2/5 of the options would vest).

 

•      For performance-based options, performance metrics would be tied to
Adjusted Net Income, and would be subject to continued employment through the entire 5-year period, such that a maximum 20% of the performance-based options would performance vest each year but remain subject to 5-year time-based cliff vesting
(subject to pro-rata vesting described above).
  
 •      The chart that follows shows the provisions relating to put rights applicable to certain good leaver/bad leaver scenarios.

 

•      Strike price at grant based on OTPPB’s purchase
price.

  
 B-1

			
	Change in Control	  	 Upon a Change in Control that occurs following the Closing, all time-based options will vest, all performance-based options subject to
future performance vesting will vest and all performance-based options that have previously met the targets will vest (performance-based options that missed the prior year targets are forfeited).

 

	Definitions	  	 “Cause,” “Good Reason,” “Change in Control” and “Disability” will be defined substantially
consistent with the definitions in the existing employment agreement as modified above.
  
 “Retirement” means termination of employment following the attainment of at least 62 years of age with at least 3 years of service with the Company following the
