Singer (“Advisor”). The Company, Holdings and Advisor are each referred to herein individually as a “Party” and collectively, as applicable, as the “Parties.”
		

		
			WHEREAS, Advisor has informed the Company that he is resigning his employment with the Company effective as of the Effective Date;
		

		
			WHEREAS, the Company has requested that Advisor provide it with assistance with transition and other matters to which Advisor has specialized knowledge or expertise for a period of time following Advisor’s departure from the Company; and
		

		
			WHEREAS, accordingly, the Company wishes to retain Advisor to provide, on an independent contractor basis, certain advisory services described on Exhibit A attached hereto, and Advisor is willing to perform such services, on an independent contractor basis, for the Company, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.
		

		
			NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties, each intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
		

		
			1.          Scope of Services; Duties.  During the Term (as defined below), the Company hereby engages Advisor to provide the advisory services described on Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Services”).  During the Term, Advisor shall (a) render the Services ethically, conscientiously and in a professional and workmanlike manner; (b) devote the amount of time as may be necessary to reasonably satisfy the performance and objectives of the Services; and (c) observe all Company policies in place from time to time for independent contractors that are or have been made known to Advisor.
		

		
			2.          Term.  The term of this Agreement, and the period during which Advisor will provide Services to the Company hereunder, shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue in effect through the 18-month anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Term”), unless earlier terminated in accordance with Section 6  of this Agreement.
		

		
			3.          Compensation.
		

		
			(a)         During the Term, in consideration of Advisor’s performance of the Services under and compliance with this Agreement and conditioned on the execution and nonrevocation of the Release (as defined below) as required by Section 18 hereof,  Advisor will receive the compensation and benefits set forth herein:
		

		
			(i)          Six (6) equal monthly installments of $42,000.00, with the first monthly installment to be paid promptly following the date the Release becomes irrevocable, but in any event by no later than April 30, 2019, and each subsequent installment to be paid within thirty (30) days of the prior installment.  To the extent practicable, payment will be made by wire or ACH transfer in accordance with the instructions currently on file with the Company’s payroll
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

 

		

		
			department (or such changed instructions as Advisor may provide in writing to the Company at any time subsequent to the date hereof).
		

		
			(ii)         Continued vesting of all of Advisor’s outstanding unvested restricted stock unit (“RSUs”) awards in accordance with their terms (as amended by this Agreement), as though Advisor had remained employed with the Company, until the earlier to occur of the expiration or termination of this Agreement; provided, however that in connection with, but prior to, the first to occur of expiration or termination,  (1) except as provided in Section 6(b), all remaining unvested RSUs will immediately accelerate in full and be settled in accordance with their terms, and (2) all remaining amounts that have yet to be paid to Advisor under Section 3(a)(i) (if any) will immediately become due and owing and the Company (or the successor thereto or to Holdings, as applicable) will promptly pay Advisor all such amounts.  Any unvested RSUs that would otherwise be forfeited and cancelled on the Effective Date will instead not be forfeited or cancelled as of such date, pending Advisor’s execution and return of this Agreement and Advisor allowing the Release to become irrevocable.  Before such conditions are satisfied, Advisor may not receive distributions under any equity compensation described in the preceding sentence and if the Release conditions are not satisfied, such equity compensation will be forfeited retroactively to the Effective Date.
		

		
			(iii)       Extension of the exercise period applicable to Advisor’s outstanding stock option awards to provide that all stock options that are vested as of the Effective Date (the “Vested Options”) will remain exercisable through the 18-month anniversary of the Effective Date (the “Option Exercise Period”), with such awards treated as amended by this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, any outstanding stock options that remain unvested as of the Effective Date,  pursuant to any stock option award previously granted to Advisor, will cease vesting and be forfeited and cancelled as of the Effective  Date.
		

		
			(iv)        Notwithstanding anything contained herein, if, prior to the expiration of this Agreement, the Company or Holdings undergoes a Reorganization Event (as defined in the Blue Apron Holdings, Inc. 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”)), then in connection therewith, but prior to the consummation thereof,  (1) all remaining unvested RSUs will immediately accelerate in full and be settled in accordance with their terms  (except as provided in Section 9(b)(2)(B) of the 2017 Plan),  (2) all remaining amounts that have yet to be paid to Advisor under Section 3(a)(i) (if any) will immediately become due and owing and the Company (or the successor thereto or to Holdings, as applicable) will promptly pay Advisor all such amounts, and (3) the Vested Options may be terminated (subject to Holdings’s payment in respect of all shares underlying the Vested Options of the amount, if any, of the excess of the per share consideration to be paid to the holders of Holdings’s class B common stock (or, if the class B common stock has converted to class A or other common stock,  the consideration to be paid to the holders of the resulting common stock) in such Reorganization Event over the applicable per share exercise price of the Vested Options), or may be assumed or replaced with substantially equivalent awards to the extent consistent with any action to be taken by Holdings in respect of the outstanding options held by all other holders thereof in connection with such Reorganization Event.
		

		
			(b)         Advisor’s compensation (other than any equity compensation that vested before the Effective Date) shall be payable without deduction for federal income, social security or state or local income taxes.  The compensation shall not be a salary and includes Advisor’s overhead and profit and any and all federal, state and local taxes that may be applicable to the Services.  Advisor shall bear sole responsibility for payment of any federal, state and local income tax withholding, social security taxes, workers’ compensation coverage, unemployment insurance, liability insurance, health and disability insurance, retirement benefits or other welfare or pension benefits, and any other payments and expenses for Advisor, as required by law.

			(c)         Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, the Company and Holdings, as applicable, shall promptly pay all compensation, and settle all benefits, due and owing to Advisor through the date of such expiration or termination as contemplated by this Agreement.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Release attached as Exhibit B hereto, in no event shall the Company or Holdings be obligated to make any further payment to Advisor.
		

		
			4.          Expenses.  The Company will reimburse Advisor for his reasonable and documented out-of-pocket travel expenses incurred in connection with the performance of the Services, in each case, billed at cost. Any individual expense in excess of $250.00, and aggregate expenses in excess of $1,000.00, shall require the prior written approval of the Company in each instance prior to incurrence. Advisor further agrees that as an independent contractor all other costs and expenses incurred by Advisor in connection with the performance of the Services shall be borne solely and exclusively by Advisor.
		

		
			5.          Independent Contractor; Compliance with Laws.  It is expressly understood and agreed between the Parties that Advisor is acting solely as an independent contractor in performing the Services, and that Advisor will not be considered an employee of the Company within the meaning or application of any federal, state or local laws or regulations, including, but not limited to, laws or regulations covering unemployment insurance, retirement benefits, workers’ compensation insurance, labor or taxes of any kind.  Neither Advisor nor the Company shall represent directly or indirectly that Advisor is an agent or employee of the Company.  Advisor understands that the Company shall not carry workers’ compensation insurance or any health or accident insurance or any other type of insurance to cover Advisor and further understands that the Company shall have no responsibility or liability whatsoever for any injuries or other damages sustained or incurred by Advisor in connection with the Services.  Advisor also understands that the Company shall not pay any contributions to Social Security, unemployment insurance, federal or state withholding taxes with respect to amounts due Advisor hereunder, or provide any other contributions or benefits that might be expected in an employer-employee relationship, and Advisor expressly waives any right to such participation or coverage.  Advisor acknowledges that Advisor is solely responsible for payment of all taxes, withholdings and other similar statutory obligations.  Advisor hereby indemnifies, defends and holds harmless the Company from and against any and all claims with respect to the matters described in this Section 5 in the event of Advisor’s failure to do so.
		

		
			6.          Termination; Effect.
		

		
			(a)         This Agreement, and Advisor’s engagement hereunder, will expire at the end of the Term, and will earlier terminate upon the occurrence of any of the following events:
		

		
			(i)          immediately upon the mutual written agreement of the Parties;
		

		
			(ii)         by (1) the Company upon not less than five (5) days’ prior written notice of termination to Advisor or (2) Advisor upon not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of termination to the Company;
		

		
			(iii)       immediately upon written notice to the other Party in the event of any material breach by such other Party of any of his or its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement;
		

		
			(iv)        immediately upon the resolution of the following Company-related matters: (1)  In re Blue Apron Holdings, Inc. Securities Litigation (E.D.N.Y.), and (2)  West Liberty Foods, L.L.C. v. Blue Apron, LLC et al. (JAMS) and West Liberty Foods, L.L.C. et al. v. Blue Apron, LLC et al. (S.D.

			(v)         immediately upon the consummation of a  Reorganization Event.
		

		
			(b)         In the event this Agreement terminates pursuant to Section 6(a)(ii)(2) or 6(a)(iii) (but,  with respect to Section 6(a)(iii), only if the Company is the terminating Party),  then in connection therewith any remaining unvested RSUs will cease vesting as of the effective date thereof and be forfeited and cancelled (but, for the avoidance of doubt,  all remaining amounts that have yet to be paid to Advisor under Section 3(a)(i) (if any) will immediately become due and owing and the Company (or the successor thereto or to Holdings, as applicable) will promptly pay Advisor all such amounts).
		

		
			 (c)        For the avoidance of doubt, except to the extent the Vested Options are terminated in connection with a Reorganization Event as contemplated by Section 3(a)(iv), in no event will the Option Exercise Period be earlier terminated as a result of the expiration or termination of this Agreement or otherwise.
		

		
			7.          No Conflict of Interest.  Advisor represents and warrants that he does not have and will not enter into any contract, agreement, arrangement, understanding, obligation or duty to any other person or entity that would prevent, limit or inhibit Advisor from performing Advisor’s obligations to the Company under this Agreement or otherwise complying with any of the terms of this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing herein shall prevent Advisor from becoming employed on a full- or part-time basis during the term of this Agreement or from rendering services as an independent contractor (or other status) to other persons or entities.

For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” means any and all information or data, including, without limitation, trade secrets, know-how, show-how, theories, technical, operating, marketing, financial or other business information, plans, business and strategies, source codes, software programs, computer systems, algorithms, formulae, concepts, creations, costs, plans, materials, enhancements, research, specifications, works of authorship, techniques, documentation, models and systems, sales and pricing techniques, designs, inventions, discoveries, products, improvements, modifications, methodology, processes, concepts, records, files, memoranda, reports, plans, proposals, price lists, product development, project procedures and customer, client, supplier and employee lists and data and other personally identifiable information, disclosed by or on behalf of the Company in connection herewith that is confidential, proprietary or otherwise not publicly available, whether prepared or furnished by or on behalf of the Company, and irrespective of the form or manner of communication (whether written, verbal, electronic or otherwise), and regardless of whether such information is specifically marked as confidential or proprietary, and irrespective of whether such information is furnished before, on or after the Effective Date.

By executing this Agreement, Advisor acknowledges and agrees that the Company may rely, and will rely, on this Agreement for purposes of entering into such other agreements.  Further, Advisor will execute and abide by all confidentiality agreements reasonably requested by any such party in connection with Advisor’s provision of the Services; and

			THEREUNDER ARE DEEMED IRREVOCABLY WAIVED. THE FOREGOING WILL CONSTITUTE THE COMPANY AND HOLDINGS’S SOLE LIABILITY AND OBLIGATION IN RESPECT OF ANY AND ALL CLAIMS BROUGHT AGAINST IT OR THEM IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PROVISION OF SERVICES HEREUNDER.
		

		
			11.        Binding Effect; Assignment.  This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of each of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

			13.        Entire Agreement; Amendment.  This Agreement, together with the Release, the NDA (as defined in the Release), and Advisor’s equity compensation award agreements, contain the entire agreement, arrangement and understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes and preempts any and all prior or contemporaneous agreements, arrangements or understandings, whether verbal or written, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and the Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement has been induced by no representations, statements or agreements other than those contained herein. This Agreement may not be amended, changed or modified except by an instrument in writing, signed by the Company and Advisor.
		

		
			14.        No Waiver.  A waiver by a Party of a breach of any term or provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a continuing waiver or as a consent to or waiver of any subsequent breach hereof.
		

		
			15.        Arbitration.
		

		
			(a)         Except with respect to any Claim (i) that is expressly precluded from arbitration or a pre-dispute arbitration agreement by a governing federal law or by a state law that is not preempted by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. (“FAA”), or (ii) that seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of Materials or involves the confidentiality provisions of the JAMS rules or this Agreement, all Claims that any Party now has or in the future may have against the other Party(ies) or any of its respective representatives, including, without limitation, contract Claims, tort Claims, Claims for compensation, penalties or restitution and any other Claim under any federal, state or local statute, constitution, regulation, rule, ordinance or common law, in each case, directly or indirectly arising out of or related to this Agreement, Advisor’s relationship with the Company, Advisor’s provision of Services to the Company or the termination of Advisor’s relationship with the Company (collectively “Covered Claims”), are subject to and will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and not by a court or jury. Each Party hereby irrevocably consents and agrees to arbitrate any Covered Claims through binding arbitration, and forever waives and gives up its right to have a judge or jury decide any Covered Claims.
		

		
			(b)         To the maximum extent not prohibited by applicable law, the Parties agree that (i) no Covered Claims may be initiated or maintained as a class action, collective action, class arbitration or
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			7

		

 

		

		
			other type of representative action or proceeding, either in court or arbitration (as applicable, a “Class Action”), and Advisor waives any right to act as a Class Action representative or to participate as a member of a class of claimants with respect to any Covered Claim; (ii) all Covered Claims must be brought in a Party’s individual capacity and may not be joined or consolidated in court or arbitration with other individuals’ Claims, and no damages or penalties may be sought or recovered on behalf of other individuals; (iii) notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, a court of competent jurisdiction, and not an arbitrator, must resolve issues concerning the enforceability or validity of the Class Action waiver set forth above; and (iv) if, for any reason, the Class Action waiver is held unenforceable or invalid, in whole or in part, then a court of competent jurisdiction, and not an arbitrator, will decide the type of Claim as to which the Class Action waiver was held unenforceable or invalid and all other Claims will remain Covered Claims and subject to arbitration as set forth herein.
		

		
			(c)         Each Party agrees that it will notify the other in writing of any Claim it may have within five (5) days of when it becomes aware of such Claim so that the Parties can attempt in good faith to resolve such Claim informally. Such notice must include a detailed description of the nature or basis of the Claim, and the specific relief that such Party is seeking. If the Parties cannot agree how to resolve the Claim within fifteen (15) days after the recipient’s receipt of the Claim notice, then any Party may, subject to Section 15(a), commence an arbitration proceeding. The Parties irrevocably consent and agree that (i) any arbitration will occur in the State of New York, County of New York, Borough of Manhattan; (ii) arbitration will be conducted confidentially by a single arbitrator in accordance with the then-current arbitration rules and procedures of JAMS (and its then-existing emergency relief procedures to the extent a Party seeks emergency relief prior to the appointment of an arbitrator), which rules and procedures are available at www.jamsadr.com, unless those rules or procedures conflict with any express term of this Agreement, in which case this Agreement shall control; and (iii) the state or federal courts sitting in the State of New York, County of New York, Borough of Manhattan, have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award and over any Claim between or among the Parties that is not subject to arbitration, and in such case, the rights and obligations of the Parties will be governed by, and construed and enforced, both substantively and procedurally, in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without regard to choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction).
		

		
			(d)         As limited by the FAA, this Agreement and applicable JAMS rules, the arbitrator will have (i) the exclusive authority and jurisdiction to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding a Covered Claim; and (ii) the authority to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, however, that the arbitrator does not have the authority to determine the question of whether a Claim is subject to arbitration under this Agreement (which authority the Parties agree will be vested solely in a court of competent jurisdiction), or conduct or preside over a Class Action (which is prohibited by this Agreement). The arbitrator may only conduct an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s Claims.
		

		
			(e)         The rules of JAMS and additional information about JAMS are available on the JAMS website. By agreeing to be bound by this Agreement, Advisor either (i) acknowledges and agrees that it has read and understands the JAMS rules; or (ii) waives its opportunity to read the JAMS rules and any Claim that the JAMS rules are unfair or should not apply for any reason.
		

		
			(f)         Each Party will pay its own attorneys’ fees, witness fees and all other costs and fees that it incurs in connection with the arbitration, except that the Company will pay all JAMS filing or administrative fees, and any additional fees unique to arbitration. The arbitrator will not otherwise have authority to award any attorneys’ fees, witness fees or other costs and fees unless a statute or contract at issue in the dispute authorizes the award of such costs and fees to the applicable prevailing Party, in which case the arbitrator shall have the authority to make an award of such costs and fees to the full extent
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			8

		

 

		

		
			permitted by applicable law. If there is a dispute as to who is the prevailing Party, the arbitrator will decide such issue.
		

		
			16.        Governing Law.  Except with respect to the Parties’ agreement to arbitrate Covered Claims as set forth in Section 15, which shall be governed by the FAA, this Agreement shall be governed by and construed, performed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any conflicts of law rules or provisions of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction.
		

		
			17.        Severability.      If any one or more of the terms, provisions, covenants or restrictions contained in this Agreement shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the Parties will agree upon a valid, legal and enforceable provision which shall be a reasonable substitute for such invalid and unenforceable provision in light of the tenor of this Agreement, and, upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such substitute provision in this Agreement.
		

		
			18.        Release.  The benefits set forth in this Agreement are conditioned on Advisor’s executing and not revoking that certain general release, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Release”), following the Effective Date in accordance with the terms contemplated thereby.

			9.          Non-Solicitation.  In addition to any restrictive covenants you entered into while employed by the Company pursuant to the NDA or otherwise (which are survived and incorporated herein by reference), you acknowledge that you understand that the Company’s ability to operate its businesses depends upon its ability to attract and retain skilled employees, and that the Company has and will continue to invest substantial resources in recruiting, hiring and training such employees.

In the event you breach any of the provisions in Paragraphs 7 through 9, you acknowledge that the Company may suffer irreparable harm and damages would be an inadequate remedy.  You hereby waive the right to assert the defense that such breach or violation can be compensated adequately in damages at law.  Accordingly, you agree that, in the event of your material breach of any of the provisions in Paragraphs 7 through 9, the Company shall be entitled to seek temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief in aid of arbitration in a court of competent jurisdiction as identified in Section 16 of the Advisory Agreement, as incorporated herein pursuant to Paragraph 15 (without being obligated to post a bond or other collateral).  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Release, the NDA, or the Advisory Agreement is intended to be or shall serve as a restriction on your conduct in a manner that would violate any rules of professional responsibilities relating to your right to practice law, provided that nothing in this Release shall be deemed to limit or waive your professional duties and responsibilities to the Company under such rules of professional responsibilities.
		

		
			11.        Permitted Conduct; DTSA.

Exhibit 10.1

SEPARATION AGREEMENT
AND GENERAL RELEASE

 

(INCLUDING WAIVER OF CLAIMS UNDER THE AGE
DISCRIMINATION IN EMPLOYMENT ACT OF 1967, AS AMENDED)

PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY.  IT INCLUDES A RELEASE OF CLAIMS.

 

JOHN P. JACUNSKI (“I,” “me,” “my,” or “myself”) and P. H. GLATFELTER COMPANY (“Glatfelter” or “Company”) hereby enter into this Separation Agreement and General Release (“Agreement”), which was presented to me by Glatfelter for my consideration on February 28, 2019, concerning my separation from Glatfelter effective March 31, 2019 (the “Separation Date”).  I agree to the terms of this Agreement on behalf of myself, my spouse, and my heirs, estate, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.  Glatfelter enters into this Agreement on behalf of P. H. Glatfelter Company and its directors, officers, agents, employees, consultants and insurers, and its respective past, present, and future parents, affiliated companies, subsidiaries, successors, and assigns (“Releasees”).  Glatfelter and I have agreed to the following terms to resolve, settle and terminate any dispute or claim I may have about my employment with Glatfelter, including, but not limited to, claims related to my separation from the Company.  I acknowledge and understand that my decision to accept or decline the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement does not affect my Separation Date.  The severance pay described in this Agreement is provided under the Company’s Executive Severance Guidelines (the “Severance Guidelines”).

1.Separation Date and Consideration. 

(a)Regardless of whether I enter into and do not revoke this Agreement, (i) I acknowledge that I have ceased to hold any position as an officer or director of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates, effective as of March 1, 2019, and (ii) I will continue in employment as an employee, and the Company will continue to pay my current base salary and provide the employee benefits currently in effect, until my Separation Date, and (iii) my employment will terminate as of the Separation Date.  From March 1, 2019 until the Separation Date, I will provide transition services as reasonably requested by the Chief Executive Officer or his designees, and I will not be required or expected to come to the Company’s offices.

(b)Subject to the terms of this Agreement, if I enter into and do not revoke this Agreement, the Company will pay or provide the following, which I agree constitutes good and valuable consideration to which I am not otherwise entitled:

(i)The Company will provide severance pay in the aggregate amount of $997,293 (which is comprised of (x) 15 months of my monthly base salary plus (y) 15 months times 1/12 of the average annual bonus paid to me with respect to the prior three years).   The severance pay shall be paid as follows, consistent with the Severance Guidelines:

1

 

(1)$560,000 of the severance pay shall be paid in installments in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices over the 15-month period following the Separation Date (the “Severance Period”).  The first payment will be made on the first payroll date that is administratively practicable after the Separation Date (and within 60 days after the Separation Date) and will include unpaid installments for the period from the Separation Date to the first payment date.    

(2)$437,293 of the severance pay shall be paid on October 31, 2019 (the last day of the seventh month following the Separation Date).

(ii)During the Severance Period, if I timely elect to receive continued health coverage (medical, prescription and dental) under the Company’s health plan pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”) and I pay the full monthly COBRA premium cost for such health coverage, the Company will reimburse me monthly an amount equal to the monthly COBRA premium that I pay, less the premium charge that is paid by the Company’s active executives for such coverage as in effect on the Separation Date (the “COBRA Reimbursement”). The COBRA Reimbursement payments shall commence on the first payroll date that is administratively practicable after the Separation Date (and within 60 days after the Separation Date).  The first payment shall include any payments for the period from the Separation Date to the commencement date.  The Company shall reimburse me under this subsection only for the portion of the Severance Period during which I continue COBRA coverage under the Company’s health plan.  The COBRA health care continuation coverage period under section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) shall run concurrently with the Severance Period.  

(iii)I will continue to be eligible to participate in the Employee Assistance Program (“EAP”) following the Separation Date for up to three sessions during the six-month period following the Separation Date, consistent with the EAP terms.        

(iv)I have elected to receive a gross payment of $30,000 in lieu of outplacement services.     

(v)My Restoration Pension under the P.H. Glatfelter Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) shall be calculated based on my compensation and years of service as of the Separation Date and using the early retirement reduction factors that apply to a participant who has attained age 55, instead of the reduction factors that apply to a terminated vested (under age 55) participant.  The Restoration Pension shall be paid in the form, and commencing on the date, specified in the SERP.

(vi)The Company will make (A) a cash payment to me of $89,500 in lieu of any 2019 annual cash bonus, and (B) an additional cash payment to me of $500,000.  The cash payments shall be made on the first payroll date that is administratively practicable after the Separation Date (and within 60 days after the Separation Date).

2.Benefits to Be Provided Without Regard to this Agreement.  Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company will provide the following benefits following the Separation Date, without regard to whether I enter into this Agreement or I revoke this Agreement:

2

 

(a)Accrued and Unpaid Salary and Vacation:  The Company will pay me any accrued but unpaid salary, and any accrued but unused vacation, as of the Separation Date in the final paycheck following the Separation Date.    

(b)COBRA Benefits: The health insurance coverage provided through the Company’s health plan for my covered dependents and me will terminate on the Separation Date, subject to my ability to elect COBRA coverage.  I acknowledge that, in accordance with COBRA, I have the right, at my cost and expense, to continue health insurance benefits for up to 18 months following the Separation Date, pursuant to the terms of COBRA.  I will receive a separate COBRA Notice which describes in detail my right to elect COBRA continuation coverage, the details, limitations and cost of such coverage, and how to elect and pay for such coverage.  I understand that I will not be able to receive COBRA continuation coverage unless I affirmatively elect such coverage in a timely manner as described in the COBRA Notice.

(c)401(k) Plan: I understand that employee contributions to the Company’s 401(k) plan and any matching employer 401(k) contributions apply only to my 401(k) plan compensation attributable to my actual employment up to the Separation Date.  

(d)Defined Benefit Plan and Supplemental Plan: Any vested benefit under a Company defined benefit plan or supplemental retirement plan will be determined in accordance with the governing plan document.

(e)Equity Grants:  Any outstanding equity grants that have vested as of the Separation Date will be payable or exercisable, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the Glatfelter Long Term Incentive Plan and the applicable grant agreements.

(f)Clawback:  I understand that any incentive compensation provided by the Company is subject to the Company’s Executive and Key Manager Compensation Clawback Policy, to the extent applicable.  

3.Release of Claims.  

(a)In exchange for the payments and benefits described in Section 1(b) above, on behalf of myself and my heirs, estate, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns, I hereby release and waive all claims available under federal, state or local law against the Releasees arising out of my employment with the Company or the termination of that employment, including but not limited to all claims arising under the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (the “ADEA”), the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act (“OWBPA”), the Civil Rights Act of 1991, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, the Equal Pay Act, the Genetic Information Non-discrimination Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, Section 1981 of the United States Code, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Pennsylvania Human Relations Act, the Pennsylvania Equal Pay Law, the Pennsylvania Whistleblower Law, the Pennsylvania Pregnancy, Childbirth and Childrearing Law, all as amended, as well as wrongful termination claims, breach of contract claims, discrimination claims, harassment claims, retaliation claims, whistleblower claims (to the fullest extent they may be released under applicable law), defamation or other tort claims, and claims for attorneys’ fees and costs.  

3

 

(b)I am not waiving (i) my right to vested accrued benefits under the terms of the Company’s employee benefit plans according to the terms of such plans, (ii) amounts payable or provided under this Agreement, (iii) claims for unemployment, workers’ compensation, state disability and/or paid family leave insurance benefits, (iv) any medical claim incurred during my employment that is payable under an applicable medical plan, (v) any right to indemnification under the charter or bylaws of the Company, under any directors and officers insurance policy, or under the Indemnification Agreement dated December 14, 2017 between the Company and me (the “Indemnification Agreement”), with respect to the performance of my duties as an officer or director of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates, (vi) claims arising after the date on which I sign this Agreement, or (vii) claims that are not otherwise waivable under applicable law.  

(c)I have not filed any claims against Releasees based on any event that took place on or before the date I execute this Agreement, and I have not previously purported to have assigned or transferred, to any person or entity, any claim released by me under this Agreement.  I acknowledge that I have not made any claims or allegations related to sexual harassment or sexual abuse and none of the benefits set forth in this Agreement are related to sexual harassment or sexual abuse.

4.Other Agreements.  

(a)I agree that (i) the consideration and payments made to me by the Company represent the sole and exclusive payments and undertakings to be provided to me; (ii) these payments include any and all outstanding and accrued compensation, wages, and benefits that may be due and owing to me; and (iii) the Company has no further obligation to provide me with any compensation of any sort, or any non-monetary or monetary benefits in addition to that which is set forth above.  I agree that the Company has paid, or as described above in this Agreement has agreed to pay, to me all salary, bonuses, commissions, wages, allowances, paid time off and other benefits and amounts to which I am entitled as a result of my employment with the Company.  I understand that the payments and benefits under Section 1(b) are in addition to any other payment or benefit to which I otherwise may be entitled under any of Glatfelter’s benefit plans and are a valuable benefit to which I would not otherwise be entitled if I do not enter into this Agreement or I revoke this Agreement.  I understand that any payments made or benefits provide under this Agreement are not in lieu of any applicable unemployment compensation benefits I may otherwise be entitled to receive.  

(b)This Agreement does not constitute an admission by the Company that it has violated any contract, law, or regulation, or in any way infringed my rights or privileges.  The Company and I are making this Agreement in order to end my employment through the Separation Date on an amicable basis.  Because this Agreement is being offered to me, in part, to settle or compromise any possible disputed employment or contract claims that I may have against the Company, I agree that I may not use it as evidence for any purpose except where it is alleged that the Agreement itself has been breached in some manner.

(c)I agree that I am not a Medicare beneficiary as of the time I enter into this Agreement.  To the extent that I am a Medicare beneficiary, I agree to contact a Company Human Resources Representative for further instruction.

4

 

(d)I agree that all payments under this Agreement shall be subject to applicable tax withholding, and the Company shall withhold from any payments under this Agreement all federal, state and local taxes as the Company is required to withhold pursuant to any law or governmental rule or regulation.  I am responsible for all taxes applicable to amounts payable under this Agreement

5.Employee’s Agreement; Non-Solicitation; Non-Competition.  

(a)Employee’s Agreement; Confidentiality.  I agree to continue to comply with the Employee’s Agreement with the Company dated October 22, 2003, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit A (the “Employee’s Agreement”).  At all times, I will hold in strictest confidence and will not disclose, use, lecture upon or publish any of the Confidential Information (defined below) of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, except as such disclosure, use or publication may be required in connection with my work for the Company or as described in Section 7 below, or unless the Company expressly authorizes such disclosure in writing.  “Confidential Information” shall mean any and all confidential and/or proprietary knowledge, data or information of the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates and shareholders, including but not limited to information relating to financial matters, investments, budgets, business plans, marketing plans, personnel matters, business contacts, products, processes, know-how, designs, methods, improvements, discoveries, inventions, ideas, data, programs, and other works of authorship.

(b)Non-Solicitation.  I agree that during my employment with the Company and during the 15-month period following my termination of employment for any reason (the “Restriction Period”), I will not, directly or indirectly, employ, solicit, recruit or attempt to persuade any person to leave his or her employment or service with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, nor will I have any contact with such persons for the purpose of discussing or aiding their departure or termination from employment or service with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, even if such persons initiate the contact. 

(c)Non-Competition.  I agree that during the Restriction Period, I will not, without the Company’s express written consent, engage (directly or indirectly) in any employment or business activity anywhere in the world whose primary business is engaged in the research, development, manufacture, marketing, or sale of products which are similar to any service or product that, during my employment, the Company provides or is actively engaged in developing; provided however, the foregoing restriction shall only apply to such service or product for which I had access to Confidential Information or otherwise have had active involvement.  I further agree that, given the nature of the business of the Company and my position with the Company, a worldwide geographic scope is appropriate and reasonable.  Any request for a waiver of the non-competition covenant with respect to a particular situation shall be submitted to the Chief Legal Officer of the Company and is subject to approval by the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. 

(d)As long as the covenants in this Section 5 are in effect, I agree to share the applicable covenant language with my prospective employers. 

6.Return of Company Property; Non-Disparagement; Cooperation. 

5

 

(a)I agree that on or before the Separation Date, I will deliver to the Company all Company documents, keys, access cards,  computers, passwords and other materials or property which came into my possession during the course of my employment with the Company except for my cell phone which I have elected to keep.  To the extent that I made use of my own personal computing devices (e.g., PDA, laptop, thumb drive, etc.) during my employment with the Company, I will deliver such personal computing devices to the Company for review before the Separation Date and will permit the Company to delete all Company property and information from such personal computing devices, and/or permit the Company to remotely delete all Company property and information from such personal computing devices. 

(b)I agree that I will not engage in any activities or make any statements that disparage or reflect negatively on the Company or its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors,  or employees.  This provision shall include, but not be limited to, Internet postings under an alias, as well as anonymous media contacts. 

(c)I agree to cooperate with any reasonable request of the Company to participate in the preparation for, response to, prosecution of and/or defense of any pending, actual, or threatened litigation involving the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates.  Upon submission of appropriate documentation, the Company will reimburse me for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that I may incur as a result of such cooperation.

7.Reports to Government Entities.  

(a)I acknowledge that nothing in this Agreement, including Sections 3, 5 and 6 herein, restricts or prohibits me from initiating communications directly with, responding to any inquiries from, providing testimony before, providing confidential information to, reporting possible violations of law or regulation to, or filing a claim or assisting with an investigation directly with a self-regulatory organization or a government agency or entity, including the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Department of Labor, the National Labor Relations Board, the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, Congress, and any agency Inspector General, or from making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of state or federal law or regulation.  Nor does this Agreement require me to obtain prior authorization from the Company before engaging in any conduct described in this Section 7(a), or to notify the Company that I have engaged in any such conduct.  I acknowledge and agree, however, that, to the maximum extent permitted by law, I am waiving and releasing any claim or right to recover from the Company any monetary damages or any other form of personal relief based on any claim, charge, complaint or action against the Company or any others covered by the release of claims in Section 3.  Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall prevent, impede or interfere with my non-waivable right to receive and fully retain a monetary award from a government-administered whistleblower award program for providing information directly to a government agency.

(b)I understand that federal law provides criminal and civil immunity to federal and state claims for trade secret misappropriation to individuals who disclose a trade secret to their attorneys, courts, or a government officials in certain, confidential circumstances that are set forth at 18 U.S.C. §§ 1833(b)(1) and 1833(b)(2), related to the reporting or investigation of a suspected 

6

 

violation of the law, or in connection with a lawsuit for retaliation for reporting a suspected violation of the law.

8.Breach of Agreement.

(a)I agree that the Company’s obligation to make the payments and provide the benefits described in Section 1(b) shall terminate if: 

(i)I breach the Employee’s Agreement or the confidentiality, non-solicitation, non-competition, non-disparagement or other terms of this Agreement; or

(ii)I misappropriate or fail to return Company materials or property, misuse Company materials or property (such as, but not limited to, Internet access).

(b)I understand and agree that should I breach the obligations in Section 5, the Company is entitled to require that I repay to the Company all payments made pursuant to Section 1(b).  In addition, I understand and agree that should I breach the obligations in Section 5, the Restriction Period will be extended by the length of time that I am in breach. 

9.Entire Agreement.  The terms of this Agreement, including the terms of the attachments hereto, which are incorporated herein, represent the entire agreement between the Company and me related to the subject matter hereof, and this Agreement supersedes any conflicting agreements between the Company and me, with the exception of the Employee’s Agreement and the Indemnification Agreement.  The Change in Control Employment Agreement dated March 7, 2008 between the Company and me shall terminate as of the Separation Date, and my separation from the Company is not in connection with or in anticipation of a change in control of the Company.  No other promises, consideration, agreement, plan, representation, oral statement, understanding, or course of conduct not expressly set forth in this Agreement have been made between Glatfelter and me to cause either of us to sign this Agreement. 

10.Enforcement.  

(a)The provisions of this Agreement (except the release of claims in Section 3) are severable.  If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and the voided provision(s) shall be amended, if possible, to the extent necessary to render it valid and enforceable according to the original intent of the parties.

(b)For violations of Section 5 or 6 of this Agreement, in addition to the remedies described in Section 8, I agree that the Company shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, without the necessity of posting a bond or other security or proving actual damages, as well as an equitable accounting of all earnings, profits and other benefits arising from any violation of Section 5 or 6, which rights shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies to which Company may be entitled.  All matters relating to the interpretation, construction, and enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed according to the laws of Pennsylvania, without giving effect to such state’s principles of conflicts of law, to the extent that the laws of the United States of America do not preempt such laws.  I further agree that jurisdiction shall be proper in, and limited to, any appropriate state or federal court in the 

7

 

Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.  I further agree that I knowingly and voluntarily waive my right to a jury trial for any claims arising from or related to this Agreement.

11.Amendment.  This Agreement may not be amended except by a written agreement that has been executed by an authorized officer of Glatfelter on behalf of Glatfelter and by me.  

12.Section 409A.  This Agreement is intended to comply with section 409A of the Code, or an exemption, and the provisions of this Section 12 shall apply notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary.  Severance benefits under this Agreement are intended to be exempt from section 409A of the Code under the “short-term deferral” exception, to the maximum extent applicable, and then under the “separation pay” exception, to the maximum extent applicable.  All payments to be made upon a termination of employment under this Agreement may only be made upon a “separation from service” under section 409A of the Code.  For purposes of section 409A of the Code, the right to a series of installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments and each payment shall be treated as a separate payment.  With respect to any payments that are subject to section 409A of the Code, in no event may I, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of a payment.  With respect to any payments that are subject to section 409A of the Code, in no event shall the timing of my execution of this Agreement, directly or indirectly, result in my designating the calendar year of payment of any amount set forth in Section 1(b) above, and if a payment of any amount set forth in Section 1(b) above is subject to section 409A of the Code and could be made in more than one taxable year, based on timing of the execution of this Agreement, payment shall be made in the later taxable year.  Any reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under this Agreement shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of section 409A of the Code.   

13.Acknowledgements.  The Company and I intend that this Agreement comply with §201 of the OWPBA.  Accordingly, I knowingly and voluntarily agree to waive any rights or claims arising out of or relating to the ADEA.  I acknowledge and represent as follows:

(a)I waive any and all rights or claims that I may have arising under the ADEA;

(b)The Company hereby advises me to consult with an attorney before executing this Agreement regarding this Agreement, my rights and my waiver of ADEA rights;

(d)I know and understand that in exchange for the waiver of my rights under ADEA, I am receiving consideration in addition to any consideration to which I am already entitled;

(e)I am hereby informed that I have 45 days from the date of receipt of this Agreement within which to consider this Agreement and to consider my waiver of ADEA rights; 

(f)I am hereby informed of my right, for a period of seven calendar days following the execution of this Agreement to revoke this waiver (“Revocation Period”), and that this Agreement shall not become effective or enforceable until the Revocation Period has expired; and

8

 

(g)I am hereby informed that in the event of any such revocation of this waiver contained in this Section 13, this Agreement and the Company’s obligations contained herein shall be null and void and of no further force and effect, including any obligation to make any payments under this Agreement.

(i)the decisional unit, which means the class, unit, or group of individuals covered by the offer of the payment(s) in consideration for signing this Agreement as a part of a group termination;

(ii)the factors the Company used to determine who was eligible or selected for the employment termination program;

(iii)the time limits for the employment termination program; 

(iv)the job titles and ages of all individuals within the decisional unit who were made eligible or selected; and
