 Dear John: 

I am pleased to extend to you this offer of employment for the position of Chief Executive Officer of Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation, effective
January 1, 2015. This position is an exempt salaried position and will report to the Board of Directors of the Corporation. 
 Should
you accept this offer, your initial base salary will be $550,000 per year. Your salary in year 1 will either be reduced by the cost of the Corporation issuing you 2,000 shares or you will purchase 2,000 shares in the open market, subject to advice
of counsel. The shares will be issued or purchased as soon as practical after January 1, 2015 when there is no black-out period in effect. The Corporation’s current practice is to evaluate salaries on an annual basis; however, you will be
evaluated on the six month anniversary of your start date and annually thereafter or such other review period policy that may be in effect from time to time and at the Corporation’s discretion. It is understood that you will be an employee at
will, the same as all members of the corporate staff, which means that there is not a contract for employment for any period of time. 
 In
addition to the base salary above, you will participate in or be entitled to receive the following: 
  

	 	•	 	An annual cash bonus incentive plan and long-term equity performance plan as outlined on the flow chart enclosed with this letter; 

  

	 	•	 	Annual Duquesne Club membership; 

  

	 	•	 	Leased company automobile and employer provided parking;

	 	•	 	Change of Control agreement similar to the agreements currently in place which provide for three times your annual compensation in the event of a “change in control”. For more information, see page 21 of the
Corporation 2014 Proxy Statement which is also enclosed; and 

  

	 	•	 	Severance Agreement for termination, other than “for cause” or for circumstances covered by the Change of Control agreement, which will provide for 12 months of base compensation. 

The Board will elect you as a Director of the Corporation effective January 1, 2015, and it is contemplated that the Board will nominate
you to be reelected at the 2015 annual meeting of shareholders for a three (3) year term. In accordance with the Corporation’s policies, as an employee of the Corporation, you will not receive separate compensation in connection with your
service as a member of the Board. 
 As a salaried employee, you will be eligible to participate in various benefit programs. A Summary of
Benefits currently available is enclosed for your information and you will receive a complete explanation of these benefits as part of your initial orientation. Generally, as a salaried employee, you will be able to participate in various insurance
programs. You will be eligible for Corporate-designated paid holidays and starting in 2015, paid vacation in accordance with the Corporation’s policy as it pertains to senior executives. 

Additionally, the Corporation currently maintains a Defined Benefit Pension Plan for its salaried employees and you may voluntarily elect to
participate in the 401(k) Savings Program. 
 The nature and extent of the above outlined and any subsequent benefit programs and/or
coverage amounts may change from time to time and at the Corporation’s discretion. 
 This offer of employment is conditioned upon
successful completion of all post-employment offer screening procedures including a physical examination, drug screening, confidential background investigation and approval of this offer by the Board of Directors on December 16th. It is
anticipated that you will be able to commence your employment with Ampco-Pittsburgh on January 1, 2015. As a further condition of employment, you will be required to sign Confidentiality and other Corporate Policy Agreements. 

Please review the enclosed information and return to me the signed acceptance employment offer as soon as possible but no later than
November 30, 2014. Once I have your acceptance and the necessary forms, I will arrange the background investigation and work with you to schedule the physical.

Mr. John Stanik 
 234 East Edgewood Drive 

McMurray, PA 15317 
 Dear John: 

Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation (the “Corporation”) recognizes your experience and potential contribution to the success of the
Corporation and desires to assure the Corporation of your continued employment. In this connection, the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) recognizes that, as is the case with other publicly held corporations, the
possibility of a change in control may exist and that such possibility, and the uncertainty that it may raise among the Corporation’s management, may result in the departure or distraction of management personnel to the detriment of the
Corporation and its stockholders. 
 The Board has determined that appropriate steps should be taken to reinforce and encourage the
continued attention and dedication of members of the Corporation’s management, including you, to their assigned duties without distraction in the face of potentially disturbing circumstances arising from the possibility of a change in control
of the Corporation. 
 In order to induce you to remain in the employ of the Corporation, the Corporation agrees that you shall receive the
severance benefits set forth in this letter agreement (“Agreement”) in the event your employment with the Corporation is terminated subsequent to a “Change in Control” (as defined in Section 2 hereof) under the circumstances
described below. 
 1. Term of Agreement. This Agreement will commence effective as of January 1, 2015 and shall continue in
effect for twenty-four (24) months from such date; provided, however, that commencing on January 1, 2017 and on each anniversary thereafter, the term of this Agreement shall automatically be extended for one additional year unless,
not later than thirty (30) days prior to such date, the Corporation shall have given notice that it does not wish to extend this Agreement; provided, further, however, that if a Change in Control shall have occurred during the original
or extended term of this Agreement, this Agreement cannot be cancelled. 

			
	Mr. John Stanik

 2. Change in Control. 

(a) No benefits shall be payable hereunder unless there shall have been a Change in Control as set forth below. For purposes of this Agreement,
a “Change in Control” shall be deemed to have occurred if: 
 (i) any “person” (as defined in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)
of the Exchange Act) other than the persons or the group of persons in control of the Corporation on the date hereof is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of
securities of the Corporation representing fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the Corporation’s then outstanding securities; 

(ii) within any period of two consecutive years (not including any period prior to the execution of this Agreement) there shall cease to be a
majority of the Board comprised as follows: individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board and any new director(s) whose election was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office
who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved; 
 (iii)
the shareholders of the Corporation approve a merger of, or consolidation involving, the Corporation in which (A) the Corporation’s Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share (such stock, or any other securities of the Corporation into which
such stock shall have been converted through a reincorporation, recapitalization or similar transaction, hereinafter called “Common Stock of the Corporation”), is converted into shares or securities of another corporation, or into cash or
other property, or (B) the Common Stock of the Corporation is not converted as described in Clause (A), but in which more than forty percent (40%) of the Common Stock of the surviving corporation in the merger is owned by Shareholders
other than those who owned such amount prior to the merger; or any other transaction after which the Corporation’s Common Stock is no longer to be publicly traded; in each case, other than a transaction solely for the purpose of reincorporating
the Corporation in another jurisdiction or recapitalizing the Common Stock of the Corporation; or 
 (iv) the shareholders of the
Corporation approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Corporation, or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Corporation of all or substantially all the Corporation’s assets, either of which is followed by a distribution of all or
substantially all of the proceeds to the shareholders. 
 3. Agreement of Employee. You agree that in the event of a Potential Change
in Control of the Corporation, you will not terminate employment with the Corporation for any reason until the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Corporation. 

			
	Mr. John Stanik		
 3

  

 For purposes of this Agreement, a “Potential Change in Control of the Corporation”
shall be deemed to have occurred if (i) the Corporation enters into an agreement, the consummation of which would result in the occurrence of a Change in Control, (ii) any person (including the Corporation) publicly announces an intention
to take or to consider taking actions, which if consummated would constitute a Change in Control, or (iii) the Board adopts a resolution to the effect that, for purposes of this Agreement, a Potential Change in Control of the Corporation has
occurred. 
 4. Termination Following a Change in Control. 

(a) If any of the events described in Section 2 constituting a Change in Control shall have occurred, you shall be entitled to the
benefits provided in Section 5(d) upon the termination of your employment within twenty-four (24) months after the Change in Control has occurred, or pursuant to Section 6 prior to the Change in Control, unless such termination is
(i) because of your death or Disability, (ii) by the Corporation for Cause, or (iii) by you other than for Good Reason. 
 (b)
For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean that if, as a result of your incapacity due to physical or mental illness, you shall have been absent from the full-time performance of your duties with the Corporation for six
(6) consecutive months, and within thirty (30) days after written notice of termination shall have been given to you, you shall not have returned to the full-time performance of your duties. 

(c) For purposes of this Agreement, termination by the Corporation of your employment for “Cause” shall mean termination upon: 

(i) the willful and continued failure by you to substantially perform duties consistent with your position with the Corporation (other than
any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness or termination by you for Good Reason), after a demand for substantial performance is delivered to you by the Board, together with a copy of the resolution of the Board
that specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes that you have not substantially performed your duties, which resolution must be passed by at least two-thirds (2/3) of the entire Board at a meeting called for the purpose and
after an opportunity for you and your counsel to be heard by the Board, and you have failed to resume substantial performance of your duties on a continuous basis within fourteen (14) days of receiving such demand, 

(ii) the willful engaging by you in conduct that is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Corporation, monetarily or otherwise, as set
forth in a resolution of the Board, which resolution must be passed by at least two-thirds (2/3) of the entire Board at a meeting called for the purpose and after an opportunity for you and your counsel to be heard by the Board, or 

(iii) your conviction of a felony, or conviction of a misdemeanor involving assets of the Corporation. 

			
	Mr. John Stanik		
 4

  

 For purposes of this Section 4(c), no act, or failure to act, on your part shall be deemed
“willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by you not in good faith and without reasonable belief that your action or omission was in the best interest of the Corporation. 

(d) For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean, without your express written consent, the occurrence after a Change in
Control of any one or more of the following conditions, which condition continues without timely and complete remedy by the Corporation after notice, as provided below: 

(i) If, following a Change in Control, there is no Parent Corporation and your status as Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation shall not
continue after such Change in Control or, if following a Change in Control, there is a Parent Corporation, as defined below, you shall not be Chief Executive Officer of the Parent Corporation, or, in either case, you shall not be afforded the
authority, responsibilities and prerogatives of such position and report directly to the Board of Directors of the Corporation or the Parent Corporation, as the case may be; 

(ii) a reduction by the Corporation in your base salary as in effect immediately before the Change in Control, a failure to increase such base
salary at the same intervals as prevailed before the Change in Control in an amount at least equal to the same percentage increase as the last increase prior to the Change in Control, or a reduction in bonus after the Change in Control over the last
bonus paid before the Change in Control unless there are equivalent reductions in bonuses for all executives of the Corporation; 
 (iii)
the requirement that you be based at a location in excess of twenty-five (25) miles from the location where you are currently based; 

(iv) the failure by the Corporation to continue in effect any of the Corporation’s employee benefit plans, policies, practices or
arrangements in which you participate or under which you are entitled to benefits, or the failure by the Corporation to continue your participation therein or benefits thereunder on substantially the same basis, both in terms of the amount of
benefits provided and the level of your participation relative to other participants, as existed immediately prior to the Change in Control; or 

(v) the breach of this Agreement by the Corporation because of the Corporation’s failure to obtain a satisfactory agreement from any
successor to the Corporation to assume and agree to perform this Agreement, as contemplated in Section 7. 
 The foregoing notwithstanding, you shall
notify the Corporation within 90 days of the initial existence of a particular condition described above in this Section 4(d), and the Corporation shall have 30 days from such notice completely to remedy such particular condition so that the
you are in the same position as if the condition had never occurred. If the Corporation timely and completely remedies the condition as required above, then the particular occurrence of the particular condition for which you gave notice shall no
longer constitute Good Reason. If the Corporation does not timely and completely remedy the particular occurrence of the particular condition for which you gave notice, you shall be deemed to terminate employment for Good Reason on the 31st day
following your notice to the Corporation. 

			
	Mr. John Stanik		
 5

  

 (e) For purposes of this Agreement, “Parent Corporation” shall mean any
“affiliate” of the Corporation that is the ultimate controlling entity of the Corporation or its successor and shall include, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any entity (and affiliated persons and entities) that
beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting stock of the Corporation, or any entity that beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, forty percent
(40%) or more (but less than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting stock of the Corporation if such entity (or affiliated persons or entities) has at least one representative on the Board of
Directors of the Corporation. 
 (f) “Good Reason” may be established notwithstanding your possible incapacity due to physical or
mental illness, provided that Disability has not been established pursuant to Section 4(b). Your continued employment following the Change in Control shall not constitute a waiver of any rights hereunder including, but not limited to, rights
with respect to any circumstance constituting Good Reason or rights under Section 7. 
 5. Compensation Upon Termination or During
Incapacity. Following a Change in Control, upon termination of your employment, or during a period of incapacity but before termination for Disability, you shall be entitled to the following benefits: 

(a) During any period prior to termination for Disability in which you fail to perform your full-time duties with the Corporation as a result
of incapacity due to physical or mental illness, you shall continue to receive your Base Salary at the rate in effect at the commencement of any such period. Following termination for Disability, your benefits shall be determined in accordance with
the Corporation’s retirement, insurance and other applicable programs and plans then in effect. 
 (b) If your employment shall be
terminated by the Corporation for Cause or by you other than for Good Reason, the Corporation shall pay to you your full Base Salary through the date of termination of your employment at the rate then in effect, plus all other amounts to which you
are entitled under any compensation or benefit plans of the Corporation at the time such amounts are due, and the Corporation shall have no further obligations to you under this Agreement. 

(c) If your employment terminates by reason of your death, your benefits shall be determined in accordance with the Corporation’s
retirement, survivor’s benefits, insurance and other applicable programs and plans then in effect. 
 (d) If your employment by the
Corporation shall be terminated within twenty-four (24) months after the Change in Control, unless such termination is (i) by the Corporation for Cause, (ii) because of your death or Disability, or (iii) by you other than for
Good Reason, you shall be entitled to the following benefits (the “Severance Payments”): 
 (A) the Corporation shall pay to you
your full Base Salary through the date of termination of your employment at the rate then in effect; 
 (B) the Corporation shall pay to
you, as severance benefits, a lump sum severance payment equal to the sum of (i) three times your annual base salary either at the time of the Change in Control or at termination, whichever is higher, and (ii) three times your bonus paid
for the prior year; 

			
	Mr. John Stanik		
 6

  

 (C) in lieu of shares of common stock of the Corporation (“Shares”) issuable upon
exercise of outstanding options (“Options”), if any, granted to you under the Corporation’s Incentive Stock Option Plan, or under any additional, substitute or successor option program or plan as may be in effect from time to time
(which Options shall be cancelled upon the making of the payment referred to below), you shall receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the higher of the closing price per Share as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the
date of termination of your employment or the highest price per Share actually paid in connection with any Change in Control, over the exercise price per Share of each Option held by you, times (ii) the number of Shares covered by each such
option; 
 (D) as more completely described in Section 5(i), for a thirty-six (36) month period after such termination, the
Corporation will arrange to provide you at the Corporation’s expense with benefits under the Corporation’s health, dental, disability, life insurance, and other similar employee benefit insurance plans applicable to salaried employees, or
benefits substantially similar to the benefits you were receiving under such plans immediately prior to the termination of your employment; 

(E) the opportunity to purchase the leased Corporation car, if any, which has been assigned to you, at its then book value under the
Corporation’s leasing arrangements, provided that should you choose to take such opportunity, you must complete such purchase by a date that is within two and one-half months after the calendar year of your termination; and 

(F) all benefits payable to you under the Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation Retirement Plan (the “Plan”) or, if applicable, the
Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “SERP”) at the time of such termination, in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Plan and SERP. 

(e) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any payment or distribution by the
Corporation to you or for your benefit (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise) (the “Payments”) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 (or any
successor provisions) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any interest or penalty is incurred by you with respect to such excise tax (such excise tax, together with any such interest and penalties, is
hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Excise Tax”), then the Payments shall be reduced (but not below zero) if and to the extent that such reduction would result in you retaining a larger amount, on an after-tax basis (taking into
account federal, state and local income taxes and the imposition of the Excise Tax), than if you received all of the Payments. The Corporation shall reduce or eliminate the Payments, by first reducing or eliminating the portion of the Payments which
are not payable in cash and then by reducing or eliminating cash payments, 

			
	Mr. John Stanik		
 7

  

 
in each case in reverse order beginning with payments or benefits which are to be paid the farthest in time from the determination. All determinations required to be made under this
Section 5(e), including whether and when an adjustment to any Payments is required and, if applicable, which Payments are to be so adjusted, shall be made by an accounting firm selected by the Corporation (the “Accounting Firm”) which
shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Corporation and to you within fifteen (15) business days of the receipt of notice from you that there has been a Payment, or such earlier time as is requested by the Corporation. In the
event that the Accounting Firm is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting the Change in Control, you shall appoint another nationally recognized accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder
(which accounting firm shall then be referred to as the Accounting Firm hereunder). All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Corporation. If the Accounting Firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable by you, it
shall furnish you with a written opinion that failure to report the Excise Tax on your applicable federal income tax return would not result in the imposition of a negligence or similar penalty. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be
binding upon the Corporation and you. 
 (f) The payments provided for in Sections 5(d)(A), (B) and (C) shall be made not later
than the fifth day following your termination of employment pursuant to the provisions of Section 5(d); provided, however, that if the amounts of such payments cannot be finally determined on or before such day, the Corporation shall pay
to you on such day an estimate as determined in good faith by the Corporation of the minimum amount of such payments and shall pay the remainder of such payments (together with interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code)
as soon as the amount thereof can be determined, but in no event later than the thirtieth day after the date of such termination. Such payments will be made in all events within 2-1/2 months following the calendar year in which such termination of
employment occurred. If the amount of the estimated payments exceeds the amount subsequently determined to have been due, such excess shall constitute a loan by the Corporation to you payable on the fifth day after demand by the Corporation
(together with interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code). 
 (g) The Corporation shall also pay to you all
legal fees and expenses incurred by you as a result of, and related to, such termination of your employment by the Corporation for Cause, by the Corporation other than for Cause, or by you for Good Reason (including all such fees and expenses, if
any, incurred in contesting or disputing any such termination or in seeking to obtain or enforce any right or benefit provided by this Agreement or in connection with any tax audit or proceeding to the extent attributable to the application of
Section 4999 of the Code to any payment or benefit provided hereunder). 
 (h) You shall not be required to mitigate the amount of any
payment provided for in this Agreement by seeking other employment or otherwise, nor shall the amount of any payment provided for in this Agreement be reduced by any compensation earned by you as the result of employment by another employer after
the date of termination of your employment, or otherwise.

 (i) With respect to the continuation of certain employee benefits for thirty-six
(36) months pursuant to Section 5(d)(D), the following shall apply: 
 (A) During the 18-month COBRA Continuation Period, the
Corporation will provide coverage as follows: 
 (j) If you elect COBRA Continuation Coverage, you shall continue to participate in
all medical, dental and vision insurance plans you were participating in on the termination date, and the Corporation shall pay the entire applicable premium. During the COBRA Continuation Period, you shall be entitled to benefits on substantially
the same basis and cost as would have otherwise been provided had you not separated from service. To the extent that such benefits are available under the above-referenced benefit plans and you had such coverage immediately prior to termination of
employment, such continuation of benefits for you shall also cover your dependents for so long as you are receiving benefits under this Section 5. The COBRA Continuation Period for medical and dental insurance under this Section 5(i) shall
be deemed to run concurrent with the continuation period federally mandated by COBRA (generally 18 months), or any other legally mandated and applicable federal, state, or local coverage period for benefits provided to terminated employees under the
health care plan. For purposes of this Agreement, (1) “COBRA” means the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended, and (2) “COBRA Continuation Period” shall mean the continuation period for
medical and dental insurance to be provided under the terms of this Agreement which shall commence on the first day of the calendar month following the month in which the date of your termination falls and generally shall continue for an 18 month
period. 
 (ii) Following the conclusion of the 18-month COBRA Continuation Period, the Corporation will provide coverage as
follows: 
 (1) If the relevant plan is self insured (within the meaning of Section 105(h) of the Code), and
such plan permits coverage for you, then the Corporation will continue to provide coverage under the plan for an additional eighteen (18) months and will annually impute income to you for the fair market value of the premium.

 (2) If, however, any such plan does not permit the continued participation
following the end of the COBRA Continuation Period as contemplated above, then the Corporation shall take all commercially reasonable efforts to provide you with, or assist you in obtaining, continued medical and dental coverage comparable to the
coverage you had during the COBRA Continuation Period. It is specifically acknowledged by you that if such coverage is provided under a Corporation sponsored self-insured plan, it will be provided on an after- tax basis and you will have income
imputed to you annually equal to the fair market value of the premium. If this coverage cannot be provided by the Corporation, (or where such continuation would adversely affect the tax status of the plan pursuant to which the coverage is provided),
then as an alternative, the Corporation will reimburse you in lieu of such coverage an amount equal to your actual and reasonable cost of continuing comparable coverage. 

(B) With respect to the continuation of disability, life insurance, and other similar employee benefit insurance plans
applicable to salaried employees for thirty-six (36) months pursuant to Section 5(d)(D), the following shall apply: 

(i) To the extent your coverage for disability, life insurance, and other similar employee benefit insurance plans applicable
to salaried employees, cannot be provided under the Corporation’s insurance plans, the Corporation will reimburse you for your premium cost to obtain comparable insurances coverages. 

(C) Reimbursement to you pursuant to Section 5(i)(A) or (B) above will be available only to the extent that
(1) such expense is actually incurred for any particular calendar year and reasonably substantiated; (2) reimbursement shall be made no later than the end of the calendar year following the year in which such expense is incurred by you;
(3) no reimbursement provided for any expense incurred in one taxable year will affect the amount available in another taxable year; and (4) the right to this reimbursement is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no reimbursement will be provided for any expense incurred following the thirty-six month period of benefit continuation or for any expense which relates to coverage after such date. 

(k) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that a payment hereunder is subject to Section 409A of
the Code (and not excepted therefrom) and payable on account of your separation from service, such payment shall be delayed for a period of six months after your termination date (or, if earlier, your death) if you are a Specified Employee (namely,
a “key employee”, as defined in Section 416(i) of the Code without regard to paragraph (5) thereof, of the Corporation, as determined in accordance with the regulations issued under Code Section 409A and the procedures
established by the Corporation). Any such payment that would otherwise have been due or owing during such six-month period will be paid immediately following the end of the six-month period in the month following the month containing the 6-month
anniversary of your date of termination, together with interest at the rate provided in Section 1274(b)(2)(B) of the Code.

 6. Notice of Termination Before a Change in Control. Notwithstanding any other
provisions of this Agreement, if prior to a Change in Control there has been any statement made by the person (or an affiliate of such person) involved in such Change in Control to the effect that following such Change in Control any action or
actions will be taken that would have the effect of creating a condition described in Section 4(d) that would permit you following a Change in Control to terminate your employment for Good Reason, and such statements have appeared in any proxy
statement or other proxy soliciting materials, any tender offer, exchange offer, or prospectus or any other document or press release publicly issued or filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or other governmental agency in connection
with the contemplated Change in Control (including any such documents issued by the Corporation in which such statement is reported), then you shall have the right to notify the Corporation that, unless the condition that would constitute Good
Reason is completely remedied prior to the effective date of the Change of Control, you intend to terminate your employment for Good Reason as of the effective date of the Change in Control, in which case your employment shall terminate on the
effective date of the Change in Control and you shall be entitled to receive the payments due under Section 5(d) and (e) pursuant to the payment provisions described in Section 5(f). 

7. Successors; Binding Agreement. 

(a) The Corporation will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Corporation or of any division or subsidiary thereof employing you to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Corporation would be
required to perform if no such succession had taken place. Failure of the Corporation to obtain such assumption and agreement prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall be a breach of this Agreement and shall entitle you to compensation
from the Corporation in the same amount and on the same terms as you would be entitled hereunder if you terminated your employment for Good Reason, except that for purposes of implementing the foregoing, the date on which any such succession becomes
effective shall be deemed to be the date of termination of your employment. 
 (b) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
enforceable by your personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and legatees. 

8. Notice. For the purpose of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for in the Agreement shall be in writing
and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered or mailed by United States registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the respective addresses set forth on the first page of this Agreement, or to any changed
address notice of which either of us shall have given to the other.

 9. Miscellaneous. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged
unless such waiver, modification or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by you and such officer as may be specifically designated by the Board. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed
by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. 
 10. Validity. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this
Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect. 

11. Effective Date. This Agreement shall become effective as of the date signed by you.
