Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation, Non-Disparagement & Confidentiality Agreement

 Exhibit 10.35 
 NON-COMPETITION, NON-SOLICITATION, NON-DISPARAGEMENT AND 
 CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT 
 [name of employee]: 
 YRC Worldwide Inc., a Delaware corporation (“YRCW”), has determined that you are important to the operation of the
business of YRCW and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). As a key employee, in the course of your work, you will, or have, become aware of information of a confidential nature pertaining to the business of the Company. The
Company maintains policies and procedures with respect to the use and the dissemination of confidential information. Your employment creates a relationship of confidence and trust between you and the Company with respect to any information
applicable to the business of the Company which may be, or has been, made known to you by the Company or learned by you in the course of your work. You understand that you have an obligation to preserve the confidentiality of this information and
use it only for the purpose for which it was obtained. To further protect this confidential information and to prevent you from using this information and your skills gained in the course of your employment with the Company in competition with the
Company, YRCW desires to provide you Consideration (defined below) to obtain your agreement not to compete with the Company and to abide by the other covenants in this agreement as described in the terms of this agreement below. 
 In exchange for the payments of Consideration to you and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby
acknowledged, you understand and agree that your undertakings set forth below are material and essential terms to YRCW, and accordingly you expressly agree that: 
  

	1.	 Non-Competition. You acknowledge that the agreements and covenants contained in this Section 1 are essential to protect the value of the
business and assets of the Company and by your prior and continued employment with the Company you have obtained, and will continue to obtain, valuable confidential information, knowledge, contacts and experience, and there is a substantial
probability that this confidential information, knowledge, contacts and experience could be used to the substantial advantage of a competitor of the Company to the Company’s substantial detriment. Therefore, you agree that so long as the
Company employs you and during the Restricted Period (defined below), you shall not, and shall cause your controlled affiliates not to, directly or indirectly (other than in your capacity as an employee of the Company), own, manage, engage in,
operate, control, work for, consult with, render services for, do business with, maintain any interest in (proprietary, financial, or otherwise), or participate in the ownership, management, operation, or control of any business of providing
products or services of the same or similar type as the products or services sold or delivered (or, pursuant to an existing business plan, will be sold or delivered) to customers of the Company (the “Business”) in any geographic region for
which you had direct or indirect responsibility on behalf of the Company or in any geographic region for which you had confidential information of the Company. It shall not be a violation of Sections 1 or 2 if you become the registered or beneficial
owner of up to 5% of any class of the capital stock of a business that is either registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or is traded on any foreign stock exchange or if you become employed by or maintain an interest in a
law, accounting, consulting or financial advisory firm so long as you do not personally provide advice or services to a competitor of the Company as an employee or interest owner during the Restricted Period. For the purposes of this agreement, the
“Restricted Period” means the period commencing as of the day of your termination of employment with the Company, whether with or without Cause and whether before or after receipt of the Consideration (defined below), and ending three
months following termination of your employment with the Company; provided that the Restricted Period may be extended to either six or nine months following termination of your employment with YRCW and any of its subsidiaries in
accordance with Section 5. 

	2.	 Non-Solicitation. During the Restricted Period, you shall not and shall cause your controlled affiliates not to (other than in your capacity
as an employee of the Company): 

  

	 	a.	 cause, solicit, induce or encourage any employees, consultants or contractors of the Company to leave their respective employment or service with
the Company, 

  

	 	b.	 solicit the employment of, or hire, employ or otherwise engage any employee of the Company; provided that it shall not be a violation of this
Section 2(b) for an employer that you work for or for a firm in which you maintain an interest to have hired an employee of the Company without your knowledge or participation, 

  

	 	c.	 cause, induce, or encourage any actual or prospective client, customer, supplier or licensor of the Company (including any existing or former
customers of the Company) to terminate or modify any actual or prospective business relationship with the Company, and 

  

	 	d.	 develop a business relationship with any actual or prospective client, customer, supplier or licensor to cause, induce, or encourage such individual
to become a client, customer, supplier, or licensor of any business in which you are engaged that is competitive with the Business. 

 The restrictions relating to actual or prospective clients, customers, suppliers or licensors in this Section 2 apply only to: 
  

	 	A.	 those actual or prospective clients, customers, suppliers or licensors with whom you had contact on behalf of the Company during the last 12 months
of your employment with the Company, or 

  

	 	B.	 any of the Company’s actual or prospective clients, customers, suppliers or licensors about whom you had any confidential information during
the last 12 months of your employment with the Company. 

 In no event shall it be a
violation of this Section 2 to engage in solicitations incidental to general advertising or other general solicitation in the ordinary course not specifically targeted at such persons or to employ any person not solicited in violation of this
agreement. 
  

	3.	 Non-Disparagement. You agree that, during your employment with the Company or at any time during the Restricted Period, you shall not make
any public statement that is materially disparaging of the business of the Company, or to the business reputation of any of the executive officers of the Company or any of the employees of the Company who are known to you to be employees of the
Company at the time of any such public statement. Your obligations under this Section 3 shall not apply to disclosures required by applicable law, regulation, or order of a court or governmental agency. 

  

	4.	 Confidentiality. All information related to the business of the Company that may be obtained by you from any source as a result of your
employment shall be considered as confidential. Materials contained in the Company’s customers’ files should always be regarded as confidential. You should always maintain appropriate administrative, technical and physical safeguards over
records in your possession to prevent unauthorized access. Information regarding strategic or tactical business plans; undisclosed business, operational or financial data; ideas, processes, methods, techniques, systems, non-public information,
models, devices, programs, computer software or related information; documents relating to regulatory matters or correspondence with governmental entities; undisclosed information concerning any past, pending, or threatened legal dispute; pricing or
cost data; the identity, reports or analysis of business prospects; business transactions that are contemplated or planned; research data; personnel information or data; identities of users or purchasers of the Company’s products or services;
or any business methods, operations, or results of the Company may not be disclosed to competitors, to the public, or to any person, nor can the preceding information be otherwise used except as your duties at the Company may require or with the
prior written approval of an authorized officer of YRCW. This applies to the period of your employment and thereafter. Trade practices, procedures, software or other strategies which you develop in the course of performing responsibilities or using
Company equipment or facilities are the property of the Company. Upon termination of your employment with the Company, you are required to deliver to the Company all documents, recordings and other tangible records (including tapes, discs or other
similar media) that contain or are derived from the Company’s confidential information. Confidential information of the Company does not include information that: 

  

	 	a.	 becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of your disclosure in violation of this agreement, 

	 	b.	 becomes available to you on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company, provided that you do not know the source to be
subject to another confidentiality agreement with, another obligation of secrecy to, or a fiduciary duty of confidentiality to, the Company with respect to the information; or 

  

	 	c.	 you independently develop without use of confidential information of the Company. 

 If you have acted in the capacity of legal counsel to the Company, it shall not be a violation of this Section 4 if you
maintain one copy of any of the legal files with respect to the advice that you provided while the Company employed you, subject to the code of conduct or ethics of the state in which you are licensed for the purpose of assisting the Company with
questions regarding those files after your employment. 
  

	5.	 Consideration. 

  

	 	a.	 Initial Consideration. Subject to the terms and restrictions set forth in this paragraph, YRCW shall pay you an amount (the
“Consideration”) equal to one-third of your base salary on January 2, 2010; provided, that the Company still employs you on January 2, 2010. If your employment with the Company ends as a result of your resignation for any
reason (other than your resignation following an event that is deemed termination for Cause as described below in this Section 5) or your termination by the Company with Cause, in each case, before March 31, 2010, YRCW shall not be
required to pay to you the January 2, 2010 payment or any future payments under this agreement, and you shall return the January 2, 2010 payment. If the Company terminates your employment without Cause or by reason of your death or

breach. 

	 	b.	 First Extension. On April 1, 2009, the Restricted Period shall be extended from three to six months following your termination of
employment with the Company unless the Board of Directors of YRCW (the “Board”) votes to cancel this extension or you notify the Company in writing that you have cancelled this extension, in each case, prior to April 1, 2009. If this
extension is effected, subject to the terms and restrictions set forth in this Section 5(b), YRCW shall pay you additional Consideration in an amount equal to one-third of your base salary on April 1, 2010; provided, that the
Company still employs you on April 1, 2010. If your employment with the Company ends as a result of your resignation for any reason (other than your resignation following an event that is deemed termination for Cause as described below in this
Section 5) or the Company terminates your employment with Cause, in each case, before June 30, 2010, YRCW shall not be required to pay to you the April 1, 2010 payment or any future payments under this agreement, and you shall return
the April 1, 2010 payment. If the Company terminates your employment without Cause or by reason of your death or permanent and total disability before the April 1, 2010 payment is made, YRCW shall pay to you or your estate all unpaid
Consideration on the date that is six months following your termination by the Company without Cause; provided, that you have not breached any applicable provision of this agreement, in which case the remaining payments of the Consideration
will not be made, and YRCW shall withhold payment of the remaining payments of the Consideration as damages for any such breach. 

  

	 	c.	 Second Extension. If the Restricted Period has been extended pursuant to Section 5(b), then on July 1, 2009, the Restricted Period
shall be extended again from six to nine months following your termination of employment with the Company unless the Board votes to cancel this extension or you notify the Company in writing that you have cancelled this extension, in each case,
prior to July 1, 2009. If this extension is effected, subject to the terms and restrictions set forth in this Section 5(c), YRCW shall pay you additional Consideration in an amount equal to one-third of your base salary on July 1,
2010; provided, that the Company still employs you on July 1, 2010. If your employment with the Company ends as a result of your resignation for any reason (other than your resignation following an event that is deemed termination for
Cause as described below in this Section 5) or your termination by the Company with Cause, in each case, before September 30, 2010, YRCW shall not be required to pay to you the July 1, 2010 payment or any future payments under this
agreement, and you shall return the July 1, 2010 payment. If the Company terminates your employment without Cause or by reason of your death or permanent and total disability before the July 1, 2010 payment is made, YRCW shall pay to you
or your estate all unpaid Consideration on the date that is six months following your termination by YRCW without Cause; provided, that you have not breached any applicable provision of this agreement, in which case the remaining payments of
the Consideration will not be made, and YRCW shall withhold payment of the remaining payments of the Consideration as damages for any such breach. 

 YRCW shall deduct from any of the payments under this Section 5 any applicable withholding taxes under federal and state law. For the purposes of this agreement, you shall be
considered “permanently and totally disabled” if you are unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected
to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months or is, by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than
12 months, receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than three months under an accident and health plan covering employees of the Company. “Cause” shall mean any of the following: 
  

	 	a.	 your conviction of a felony involving acts of dishonesty, fraud or moral turpitude; 

	 	b.	 your willful and repeated failure to perform your duties following 30 days notice of the failure and your failure to cure within the 30-day period;

  

	 	c.	 willful misconduct material to your employment; 

  

	 	d.	 your willful material breach of Company policies or rules of which you have been made aware following 30 days notice of the breach and your
failure to cure within the 30-day period; 

  

	 	e.	 your willful, material and demonstrable dishonesty related to your employment; or 

  

	 	f.	 gross negligence in the performance of your job duties. 

 For purposes of this agreement, no act, or failure to act, on your part shall be deemed “willful” or engaged in “willfully” if it was due primarily to an error in
judgment or negligence, but shall be deemed “willful” or engaged in “willfully” only if 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 Company. 
 If you resign following one or more of the following events, the Company shall be deemed to have
terminated you without Cause for the purposes of this agreement: 
  

	 	a.	 the Company relocates your principal place of performance of your duties and responsibilities (“employment domicile”) to a location more
than 50 miles from the your current employment domicile; 

  

	 	b.	 the Company requires you to travel in excess more than 15% more than you traveled for the business of the Company in the preceding 12 months
(counting each day or partial day of travel outside of the 100 mile radius of your current employment domicile as a travel day); or 

  

	 	c.	 the Company reduces your base salary, bonus opportunity or long-term incentive opportunity other than reductions that are applicable to all
similarly situated executives. 

  

	6.	 Reasonableness and Damages. You agree that the above obligations and covenants are reasonable in duration and scope, and agree that any
agreed upon arbitration panel or court of competent jurisdiction may reform those obligations to the extent necessary to enforce them under applicable law. You further agree and acknowledge that violation of these obligations and covenants would
cause immeasurable and irreparable damage to the Company. Accordingly, you agree that upon any violation of any of these obligations and covenants: 

  

	 	a.	 you are required to return all Consideration to YRCW, and 

  

	 	b.	 YRCW is entitled to withhold payment of any future payments of the Consideration, to injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction
(without the necessity of posting a bond or other security with respect to the injunctive relief) and to any other remedies it may have. 

 In addition, you agree that upon any threatened violation of any of these
obligations and covenants: 
  

	 	a.	 YRCW is entitled to withhold payment of the Consideration until any dispute regarding your threatened violation is resolved, and

  

	 	b.	 YRCW is entitled to injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the violation, without the necessity of posting a bond or
other security with respect to the injunctive relief. 

 If you are required to return any of the
Consideration pursuant to this agreement, YRCW shall use its reasonable best efforts to reverse any federal or state withholding taxes made on your behalf prior to requesting the return of that portion of the Consideration from you. The provisions
of this agreement are in addition to the provisions in any written employment agreement between the Company and you, and will not affect the responsibilities or any other rights of you or the Company under those agreements. This agreement is not a
contract of continuing employment. Employment is for no fixed term, and either you or the Company may decide to terminate the employment relationship at any time for any reason. 
 This agreement is intended to meet the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and shall be administered in a
manner that is intended to meet those requirements and shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent. To the extent that a payment is subject to the excise taxes that Section 409A of the Code imposes, the Company shall
make the payment or defer it in a manner that will meet the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, including regulations or other guidance issued with respect thereto, such that the payment or deferral shall not be subject to the excise tax
applicable under Section 409A of the Code. 
 Unless this agreement expressly states to the contrary, references to
“Sections” in this agreement mean the sections and subsections of this agreement, and capitalized terms that this agreement defines shall have the meanings that this agreement gives to each of them for the purposes of this agreement.

 This agreement shall be governed by Kansas law, without regard to its choice of law principles, and will be binding on you,
your heirs, executors, assigns, and administrators, and shall inure to the benefit of YRCW, its successors and assigns, and shall survive the termination of your employment with the Company, regardless of the manner of such termination. 

Each provision of this agreement will be interpreted on its own. If any provision is held to be unenforceable as written, it will be
enforced to the extent reasonable under the circumstances. In any case, the other provisions of this agreement will not be affected. 
 This agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties and supersedes all prior agreements or understandings, if any, whether oral or written, with regard to the subject matter hereof. This agreement is an integrated document and
may not be modified or amended except in a writing signed by the parties hereto or their successors in interest. 
 [For Sheila
K. Taylor: This agreement amends and restates YRCW’s prior agreement with you dated December 18, 2008, in its entirety. Notwithstanding anything in this agreement to the contrary, if you have not received Consideration of at least $159,024
(the “Prior Agreement Amount”) on or before July 1, 2010, you shall receive a payment, if any, equal to the excess (the “Excess”) of the Prior Agreement Amount over the amounts paid to you on or before July 1, 2010 so
long as you remain employed with the Company on July 1, 2010; provided that if the Company terminates you without Cause or if you die or become permanently and totally disability before the July 1, 2010 payment is made, YRCW shall
pay to you or your estate all unpaid Consideration on the date that is six months following your termination by YRCW without Cause; provided, further, that you have not breached any applicable provision of this agreement, in which case the
remaining payments of the Consideration will not be made, and YRCW shall withhold payment of the remaining payments of the Consideration as damages for any such breach. If your employment with the Company ends as a result of your resignation for any
reason (other than your resignation following an event that is deemed termination for Cause as described below in Section 5) or your termination by the Company with Cause, in each case, before July 1, 2010, YRCW shall not be required to
pay to you the Excess Amount or any future payments under this agreement, and you shall return the payment of the Excess Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, the portion of the Consideration paid to you up to the Prior Agreement Amount is part of,
and not in addition to, the total Consideration that YRCW pays you pursuant to this agreement.]

you the opportunity to receive the Retention Payment (defined below) described in this Retention Payment, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation, Non-Disparagement, and Confidentiality Agreement (this “Agreement”), subject to the terms
and conditions set forth below. 
 In addition, in the course of your work, you will, or have, become aware of

consideration for the Retention Payment and confidential information, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, you understand and agree that your undertakings set forth below are material and essential terms to YRCW, and
accordingly you expressly agree that: 
  

	1.	 Retention Payment. Subject to the terms and restrictions set forth in this paragraph, YRCW will pay you a retention payment in an amount
equal to one times your base salary $340,000 as of the date of this Agreement (the “Retention Payment”); provided, you are still employed by YRCW on the Vesting Date. Unless otherwise provided within this Agreement, the Retention

 Dear Phil: 
 I am very glad to confirm with you that the
Board of Directors recently approved a new payout schedule for the consideration you are to receive for the Retention Payment, Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation, Non-Disparagement and Confidentiality Agreement you signed earlier this year.

 Instead of receiving one times your base of $340,000.00 in July, 2010 you will now receive three equal
payments of $113,333.00 in January, April and July of 2010. If you voluntarily resign from the company before July 1, 2010 you will be required to repay any of the monies paid to you under this revised schedule. All other terms and
conditions of the original agreement remain unchanged.
 Thank you for your continued loyalty, commitment and extraordinary
contributions to our company as we execute our comprehensive recovery plan.
  

	
	Sincerely,
	
	Jim Kissinger
	EVP – Human Resources
