EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

This EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT, (the “Agreement”) dated this 1st day of October,
2010 (the “Effective Date”) is made by and between Global Defense Technology & Systems,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (“GTEC”) and Global Strategies Group (North America) Inc., a
Maryland corporation (“GNA”, with GTEC and the Company referred to as the
“Company”), and Joseph M. Cormier (the “Executive”).

WHEREAS, the GNA and the Executive previously entered into an Employment Agreement effective
of January 25, 2010, as subsequently amended (the “Prior Agreement”); and

WHEREAS the Company and the Executive desire to amend and restate the terms of the Prior
Agreement.

In consideration of the foregoing and the covenants below, the Company and Executive agree as
follows:

1. Employment.

(a) During the Term (as defined in Section 2 hereof), GNA shall employ Executive and Executive
shall render services to GNA as Chief Financial Officer and to GTEC as Chief Financial Officer.
Executive shall perform during his employment with GNA such duties and exercise such powers in
relation to the business of the Company commensurate with his positions with the Company.

(b) During the Term, Executive shall report to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO).

(c) Executive shall perform such actions consistent with his position and such other duties as
may from time to time be assigned to him by the CEO or the Board of Directors, the “Board”. In the
performance of his duties, Executive shall comply with such limits on Executive’s authority in his
positions with the Company as the Board may from time to time impose. Executive shall devote his
full and exclusive business time and best efforts to the performance of his duties under this
Agreement and shall perform them faithfully and diligently; provided that Executive may (i) serve
on civic, charitable or, with the Board’s consent, corporate boards or committees and (ii) deliver
lectures, fulfill speaking engagements or teach at educational institutions and retain any
remuneration received therefore as long as such activities do not, in the Board’s judgment,
interfere with the performance of his duties hereunder.

 

 

 

2. Term of Employment.

The Executive’s employment with GNA commenced on January 25, 2010 under the terms of the Prior
Agreement (the “Original Effective Date”). Pursuant to the terms of the Prior Agreement,
the term of Executive’s employment is currently extended until January 25, 2012 (the “Initial
Expiration Date”). Subject to the provisions of this Section 2 and earlier termination
pursuant to Section 4 below, the term of this Agreement shall end on the Initial Expiration Date,
provided that, subject to earlier termination pursuant to Section 4 below, commencing on the
Initial Expiration Date, and on each anniversary of the Initial Expiration Date thereafter, the
term of this Agreement shall automatically be extended for an additional year unless, not later
than six (6) months prior to the expiration of the then-existing term, the Company or the Executive
shall have given notice not to extend the term of this Agreement; and provided, further, that if a
Change of Control (as defined herein) of GTEC shall have occurred during the original or any
extended term of the Executive’s employment pursuant to this Agreement, the term of the Executive’s
employment pursuant to this Agreement shall continue in effect for a period of twelve (12) months
from the date on which such Change of Control occurred. All periods during which the Executive is
employed hereunder shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Term.”

3. Compensation.

(a) Salary. As full compensation for Executive’s services under this Agreement,
Executive shall be entitled to an annual gross salary at the rate of $310,000 US Dollars (“Base
Salary”). The Base Salary shall be payable in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll
practices. If Executive’s employment begins or terminates part way through a payment period, his
Base Salary will be prorated based on the actual number of days included in the period. All forms
of compensation referred to in this Agreement are subject to applicable withholding and payroll
taxes. The Base Salary may be increased from time to time at the discretion of the Board.

(b) Bonus. In addition to his Base Salary, Executive will also be considered for an
annual performance-based bonus of 65% of the Base Salary for performance at target (the “Target
Bonus Amount”), with the annual performance-based bonus for 2010 determined by a use of a
pro-rated amount of the Base Salary and the target bonus amounts applicable for the period before
and the period after the Effective Date. Performance objectives for Company’s financial year
(“Financial Year”) will be determined by the Board or a committee thereof generally during
the first ninety (90) days of the Financial Year. The actual amount of any bonus shall be
determined in the sole discretion of the Board. Receipt by Executive of a bonus in relation to any
Financial Year is not to be regarded as establishing an entitlement on the part of Executive to
receive a bonus in relation to subsequent Financial Years or as to the amount of any such
bonus. Bonuses are subject to Executive still being employed by the Company at the date payment is
due and to his not being under notice of termination on that date either given by Executive or the
Company. The Target Bonus Amount may be increased from time to time at the discretion of the
Board.

 

-2-

 

(c) Equity Compensation.

(i) Grants. The Executive will be eligible for stock option grants
“Options” or restricted stock grants “Restricted Stock” at the sole discretion of
the Board taking into account the Executive’s performance, the performance of the Company
and other factors the Board determines to be relevant. On October 1, 2010, the Executive
will be granted nonqualified stock options (i.e., stock options not intended to be
incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the “Code”)) to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock of the
Company (the “Initial Grant”). The exercise price of any grants of Options shall be
the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant, as determined by the
Board in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

(ii) Vesting. The Initial Grant shall vest in four equal annual installments
beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant subject to the Executive’s
continued employment to the applicable vesting date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, in the event of a Change in Control (as defined below), vesting of the Initial
Grant will accelerate to 100% as of immediately prior to the effective date of the Change
in Control. All Options will cease to vest upon death, disability or termination of
employment.

4. Termination of Employment.

(a) General. Notwithstanding Section 2 above, the Company may terminate Executive’s
employment prior to expiration of the Term for any of the following reasons: (i) as a result of his
death or Disability as provided in Section 4(b) below, (ii) for Cause as provided in Section 4(c)
below or (iii) without Cause as provided in Section 4(d) below.

(b) Termination due to Death; Disability. The Term shall terminate on Executive’s
death or Disability, at which time the Company’s obligations under this Agreement to pay further
compensation shall cease forthwith, except that the Company
shall pay Executive (or his estate or legal representative, as the case may be), in full and
complete satisfaction of all of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement, the following: (i)
any accrued but unpaid Base Salary prorated on a daily basis up to the date of such termination;
(ii) subject to submission of all required documentation, reimbursable expenses accrued (but
unpaid) as of the date of such termination of the Executive’s employment; (iii) any accrued but
unused vacation days paid at a rate determined consistently with Company policy; and (iv) any
vested and accrued employee benefits payable under the Company’s employee benefit plans
(collectively, the “Accrued Rights”). As used in this Agreement, the term
“Disability” shall mean a physical or mental disability or incapacity of Executive, whether
total or partial, that, in the good faith determination of the Board, has prevented him from
performing substantially all of his duties under this Agreement during a period of two consecutive
months or for one hundred eighty (180) days during any twelve (12) month period (or such longer
period as may be required to comply with applicable law).

 

-3-

 

(c) Termination for Cause. If Executive (i) willfully fails to perform his duties
hereunder in a material manner and such failure shall not be discontinued promptly after written
notice to Executive thereof (which notice shall be signed by the Board or a designated officer of
the Company and refer to a breach of the Employment Agreement); (ii) is charged with or indicted
for a felony or other crime casting doubt on Executive’s trustworthiness or integrity; (iii) (A)
materially breaches any of his covenants under Sections 5(a) through 5(c) hereof or (B) knowingly
and materially breaches any of his covenants under Section 5(d) hereof; (iv) commits any act of
dishonesty that is intended to result in personal enrichment of the Executive at the expense of the
Company or (v) in bad faith, commits any act or omits to take any action, to the material detriment
of the Company (each of the foregoing (i) — (v) constituting “Cause”); then the Company may
at any time by written notice terminate Executive’s employment and the Term, and Executive shall
have no right to receive any compensation or benefit from the Company hereunder on and after the
effective date of such notice, except for any Accrued Rights.

(d) Termination Without Cause. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
elsewhere in this Agreement, the Company, in the sole discretion of the Board, shall have the right
to terminate Executive’s employment during the Term at any time and for any reason, without Cause
by written notice to Executive. In the event that Executive’s employment is terminated without
Cause, then, provided the Executive has incurred a “separation from service” within the meaning of
Section 409A of the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations (a “Separation from Service”),
and subject to the Executive’s execution and non-revocation of an effective general release of
claims in favor of the Company in a form delivered by the Company to the Executive within the
applicable consideration period specified in the release (not to exceed thirty (30) days following
such delivery) (which delivery will be made within seven days following
Executive’s Separation from Service with the Company), the Company shall pay Executive as
severance an aggregate amount equal to:

(i) Twelve (12) months of his Base Salary (or eighteen (18) months of his Base Salary if such
termination of employment occurs within six (6) months following a Change in Control);

(ii) notwithstanding the requirement of Section 3(b) that the Executive be employed on the
bonus payment date, the amount of any unpaid bonus which has been earned by the Executive for any
Financial Year preceding the termination of the Executive’s employment in respect of which such
compensation is paid or payable; and

(iii) 100% of the Target Bonus Amount for the Financial Year during which such termination
occurs.

 

-4-

 

All payments due under this Section 4(d) are subject to Section 7(k). Subject to the other
terms of this paragraph, his severance shall be payable as and when Executive’s Base salary or
bonus would otherwise have been paid (and in the case of Base Salary, in accordance with the
Company’s regular payroll payment practices) but in the case of the bonus amount, no later than
March 15 of the year following the year during which the Executive is notified of his termination
from the Company with the date of such payment determined by the Company. Notwithstanding the
foregoing sentence, if the Executive incurs a Separation from Service within two (2) years
following the occurrence of a Change in Control that also constitutes a change in the ownership or
effective control of GTEC or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of
GTEC, in all cases within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5), severance
payments to which the Executive is entitled under this Section 4(d) shall, except as limited below,
be paid in a single lump sum on the First Payment Date (as defined below). Notwithstanding any
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no severance payments otherwise payable under this
Section 4 shall be paid prior to the 60th day following the date of the Executive’s
Separation from Service with the Company (the “First Payment Date”) and any such amounts
that otherwise would have been paid prior to the First Payment Date shall be paid on the First
Payment Date. The Company shall have no other liability to Executive other than for the Accrued
Rights or as otherwise required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section
4(d), the payments described in this Section 4(d) shall immediately cease and be irrevocably
forfeited if the Executive violates any of the restrictive covenants contained in Section 5 of this
Agreement.

(e) Termination By Executive For Good Reason. If Executive terminates his employment
for Good Reason then such termination shall be treated as a termination of Executive’s employment
by the Company without Cause under Section 4(d) of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement,
“Good Reason” shall mean (A) the assignment to Executive of any duties materially and
adversely inconsistent with his position as set forth in Section l(a) of this Agreement including,
but not limited to status, office or responsibilities as contemplated under Section 1 herein, (B) a
change in the Executive’s reporting relationship such that he no longer reports directly to the
Board, (C) a material breach by the Company of any material provision of this Agreement, or (D) the
relocation of the Executive’s office as assigned to him by the Company to a location more than
fifty (50) miles from the Executive’s office prior to the date of such relocation, except for
travel reasonably required in the performance of Executive’s Responsibilities. The Executive must
notify the Company in writing of the existence of a condition constituting Good Reason within
ninety (90) days of the first occurrence of the condition and the Company shall have thirty (30)
days thereafter during which to cure such event. Executive shall not be entitled to resign for
Good Reason during such thirty (30) day period or in the event such condition is cured.
Executive’s resignation for Good Reason must be effective no later than one hundred eighty (180)
days following the first occurrence of a condition constituting Good Reason.

 

-5-

 

(f) Other Terminations By Executive. During the Term, Executive may in his discretion
without Good Reason terminate his employment with the Company by giving the Company at least ninety
(90) days written notice of his decision to terminate his employment (or thirty (30) days if the
Executive is terminating his employment in order to accept a position with the U.S. Government).

(g) Cooperation. Executive agrees that following any termination of his employment, he
shall co-operate with the Company in winding up or transferring to other Executives or members of
the Board of the Company or such other individuals as may be directed by the Board of any pending
work and shall also co-operate with the Company (to the extent allowed by law and at the Company’s
expense) in connection with any action (i) brought by any third party against the Company or (ii)
brought by the Company against any third party, in either case that relates to Executive’s duties;
provided that such cooperation does not unreasonably interfere with Executive’s subsequent
employment. The Company and Executive agree that their obligations under this Section 4(g) shall
survive the termination of the Term.

(h) For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control” means the occurrence of any of
the following:

(i) the acquisition of more than 50% of the combined voting power of GTEC’s then total
outstanding voting securities by any “person” or related “group” of “persons” (as such terms are
used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) other than
(x) GTEC or any affiliate of GTEC, (y) any employee benefit plan of GTEC or an affiliate or any
trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of GTEC or an
affiliate, or (z) Contego Systems LLC, Kende Holding kft, Global Strategies Group Holding S.A., or
any of their affiliates or successor entities; or

(ii) the consummation of a merger or consolidation of GTEC with any other corporation or other
entity, following which the voting securities of GTEC outstanding immediately prior to such merger
or consolidation no longer represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into
voting securities of the surviving entity or any parent thereof) at least 50% of the combined
voting power of the securities of GTEC or such surviving entity or any direct or indirect parent
thereof outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; or

(iii) the stockholders of GTEC approve a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution.

(d) Confidential Information.

(i) Executive agrees that during his employment with the Company he will have access to
Confidential Information of the Company and its subsidiaries to enable him to optimize the
performance of his duties to the Company. Executive agrees to use such Confidential Information
solely for the Company and its subsidiaries’ benefit during his employment hereunder. Executive
agrees that upon the termination of his employment in accordance with Section 4, the Company shall
have no obligation to provide or otherwise make available to him any of its Confidentia1

Company or its subsidiaries’ proprietary information, technical data, trade secrets or know-how,
including, but not limited to, research, product plans, products, services, customer/client lists
and customers/clients (including, but not limited to, customers/clients of the Company or its

through no wrong act or omission of his or of others who were under confidentiality obligations as
to the item or items involved or improvements or new versions thereof.

(ii) Executive agrees, at all times during the Term and thereafter, to hold in strictest

(iii) Executive agrees that he shall not, during the Term and thereafter, improperly use or
disclose any proprietary information or trade secrets of any former employer or other person or

unpublished document or proprietary information belonging to any such employer, person or entity
unless consented to in writing by such employer, person or entity.

(iv) Executive recognizes that the Company and its subsidiaries have received and in the
future will receive from third parties their confidential or proprietary information subject to a

and to use it only for certain limited purposes. Executive agrees to hold all such confidential or
proprietary information in the strictest confidence and not to disclose it to any person, firm or
corporation or to use it except as necessary in carrying out his work for the Company consistent
with the Company’s agreement with such third party.

(v) Executive will at all times during this Agreement be in a position to make use of
information in the performance of his duties. However, if he has any concerns as to whether or not
it is appropriate for him to use such information he must draw it to the attention of the Board,
who will give appropriate advice.

(vi) Executive agrees that, at the time of leaving the employ of the Company, he will deliver
to the Company (and will not keep in his possession, recreate or deliver to anyone else) any and
all Confidential Information, including, but not limited to, any devices, records, data, notes,
reports, proposals, lists, correspondence, specifications, drawings, blueprints, sketches,
materials, equipment, other documents or property, or reproductions of any aforementioned items
developed by Executive pursuant
to his employment with the Company or otherwise belonging to the Company, its subsidiaries,
their successors or assigns.

 

-8-

 

(vii) In the event that Executive leaves the employ of the Company, Executive hereby grants
consent to notification by the Company to his new employer about his rights and duties under this
Agreement.

(viii) If Executive breaches his obligation of confidentiality hereunder, Executive shall be
liable to the Company for all damages (direct or consequential) incurred as a result of Executive’s
breach.

(e) No other agreement, grant or plan shall require Executive to limit his post employment
activities beyond that set forth herein or condition any payment or benefit on any greater
limitation.

(f) Severability; Relief. The covenants of this Agreement shall be severable, and if
any of them is held invalid because of its duration, scope of area or activity, or any other
reason, the Parties agree that such covenant shall be adjusted or modified by the court to the
extent necessary to cure that invalidity, and the modified covenant shall thereafter be enforceable
as if originally made in this Agreement. Executive acknowledges that his services are unique and
the restrictions contained in this Section 5 will not impair Executive’s ability to earn a living
in any businesses other than those businesses from which Executive is prohibited during the time of
such restriction. The Parties agree that the violation of any covenant contained in this Section 5
may cause immediate and irreparable harm to Company or the Executive, as the case may be, the
amount of which may be difficult or impossible to estimate or determine. If a Party violates any
covenant contained in this Section 5, the other Party shall have the right to equitable relief by
injunction or otherwise (and no bond or other security shall be required in connection therewith),
in addition to all other rights and remedies afforded by law. In addition, in the event of an
alleged breach or violation by either Party of any of Sections 5(a) through (c), the Restrictive
Period shall be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured. The Parties agree that
the restrictions contained in Section 5 are reasonable.

(f) Enforceability. If any term or provision or part of this Agreement is invalid,

be deemed not to form part of this Agreement, but the validity and enforceability of the remainder

reduced only to the minimum extent necessary to render the modified covenant valid, legal and
enforceable.

of this Agreement. Any waiver must be in writing.

(h) Complete Agreement. This Agreement supersedes all prior or contemporaneous
agreements between the parties with respect to its subject matter, and is intended as a complete

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in-kind benefits and
reimbursements provided under this Agreement shall be provided in accordance with the requirements
of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409-3(i)(1)(iv), such that any in-kind benefits and reimbursements
provided under this Agreement during any calendar year shall not affect in-kind benefits or
reimbursements to be provided in any other calendar year, other than an arrangement providing for
the reimbursement of medical expenses referred to in Section 105(b) of the Code, and any in-kind
benefits and reimbursements shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, reimbursement requests must be timely
submitted by Executive and, if timely submitted, reimbursement payments shall be promptly made to
Executive following such submission, but in no event later than December 31st of the calendar year
following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred. In no event shall Executive be
entitled to any reimbursement payments after December 31st of the calendar year following the
calendar year in which the expense was incurred. This paragraph shall only apply to in-kind

(ii) If the Executive is treated as a “specified employee” (as determined by the Company in
its discretion in accordance with applicable regulations under Section 409A of the Code) at the
time of his or her separation from service (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) from
the Company and each employer treated as a single employer with the Company under Section 414(b) or
(c) of the Code, and if any amount(s) of nonqualified deferred compensation (within the meaning of
Section 409A of the Code) are payable by the Company or a member of the Group by reason of the
Executive’s separation from service, then payment of the amounts so treated as nonqualified
deferred compensation which would otherwise be payable during the six (6) month period following
the Executive’s separation from service will be withheld by the payer and paid in a single lump sum
on the earliest of (i) the first business day which is at least six (6) months and one (1) day
following the date of such separation from service, (ii) the death of the Executive, or (iii) such
earlier date on which payment is permitted under Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code. The rules of
this section are intended to comply with Section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code and shall be interpreted
consistent with such section. Any series of payments due under this Agreement shall for all
purposes of Section 409A of the Code be treated as a series of separate payments and not as a
single payment.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the date first above
written.
