 Section 3. Term of Employment. 
 (a) The term of Executive’s
employment under this Agreement (the “Term of Employment”) shall commence on the Effective Date and expire on December 31, 2013, unless terminated prior thereto in accordance herewith. This Agreement shall not be automatically
renewable and, unless mutually extended by the Parties by an agreement in writing, shall terminate upon the expiration of the Term of Employment; provided, however, that: 

(i) simultaneously with the expiration of the Term of Employment and termination of this Agreement, Executive’s
employment shall continue on an “at will” basis unless or until such “at will” employment is terminated by the Company or Executive by notice in writing; 

(ii) during the term of such “at will” employment, (A) if there is a termination by Executive with Good
Reason (as defined below) or (B) if there is a termination by the Company without Cause (as defined below), in either such case, whether such termination for Good Reason or without Cause occurs prior to or following a Change in Control (as
defined below) [n.b., solely for purposes of determining whether there is a Good Reason termination under this clause (ii) of this Section 3(a) and for purposes of calculating the benefits to Executive of a termination by Executive
for Good Reason or by the Company without Cause, the provisions of Sections 4, 5 and 6 shall be deemed to be in full force and effect during the “at will” employment period], Executive shall be entitled to and his sole remedies for such
termination (subject to the immediately following clause (iii)) shall be as set forth in Section 8(c) (which Section 8(c) shall continue in full force and effect during the “at will” employment period), and not as set forth in

under Section 3(a), thereafter.

 (b) Absent extenuating circumstances, the Parties envision that they will negotiate an
amendment to this Agreement prior to the end of each calendar year extending the Term of Employment for an additional year; it being understood and agreed, however, that neither Party shall have a legal obligation to actually enter into any such
amendment. Accordingly, beginning in October, 2011 and continuing each subsequent October during the Term of Employment, the Parties shall meet to discuss Executive’s performance during the year and the possibility of extending the Term of
Employment for an additional year, and may also discuss additional proposed modifications of the other terms of this Agreement, with a view toward concluding such discussions, and, assuming they actually come to agreement, entering into an amendment
to this Agreement prior to the end of the calendar year. In connection with all such discussions, it is understood and agreed (i) that neither Party shall have any legal obligation to actually enter into any such amendment, (ii) that no
such amendment shall exist unless and until approved by the Committee (as defined below) and/or the Board (as defined below) and the requirements of Section 22 are satisfied with respect thereto, and (iii) that the Company may, in its
discretion and without any liability or obligation of any kind, elect to handle negotiations with Executive differently than it handles similar negotiations with other senior executives of the Company. 

Section 4. Title, Position, Duties and Responsibilities. 
 (a) Generally. Executive shall serve as Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Executive shall have and perform such duties, responsibilities, and authorities as are customary for the Chief
Financial Officer of corporations of similar size and businesses as the Company as they may exist from time to time and as are consistent with such positions and status. Executive shall devote all of his business time and attention (except for
periods of vacation or absence due to illness and other activities permitted pursuant to Section 4(b)) and his best efforts, abilities, experience and talent to the position of Chief Financial Officer and for the Company’s businesses.

 (b) Other Activities. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude
Executive from (i) serving on the boards of directors of a reasonable number of other corporations after prior consultation with and approval of the Board or the boards of a reasonable number of trade associations and/or charitable
organizations, (ii) engaging in charitable activities and community affairs, and (iii) managing his personal investments and affairs, provided that such activities do not materially interfere with the proper performance of his
duties and responsibilities under this Agreement. 
 (c) Place of Employment. Executive’s principal place of
employment shall be the corporate offices of the Company. 
 (d) Rank of Executive Within Company. As Chief Financial
Officer of the Company, Executive shall report directly to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company or as the Board may otherwise direct.

 Section 5. Base Salary; Bonus; Equity Awards. 

(a) Base Salary. Executive shall be paid an annualized salary, payable in accordance with the regular payroll practices of the
Company, of not less than Four Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($425,000) (“Base Salary”). The Base Salary shall be reviewed for increase (but not decrease) by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of
the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) no less than annually. 
 (b) Bonus. Executive shall
be eligible to participate in an annual incentive (cash bonus) plan with target award and maximum award opportunities approved from year to year by the Board and/or the Committee. Entitlement to and payment of an annual incentive bonus is subject to
the approval of the Board and/or the Committee. 
 (c) Annual Equity (Long-Term Incentive) Awards. Subject to the
approval of the Board and/or the Committee, Executive shall be eligible for annual equity (long-term incentive) awards in the form of shares of restricted and/or non-vested Company common stock and/or securities exercisable for or convertible into
shares of Company common stock pursuant to the terms of the Company’s 2008 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (or any successor plan), commencing contemporaneously with the 2011 long-term incentive award grants to the Company’s other
executive officers and continuing each year thereafter. Executive hereby agrees and acknowledges that the actual value of awards, if any, will be based upon Executive’s performance and the metrics used for other executive officers of the
Company, provided that no greater than sixty percent (60%) of the target value of any such annual long-term incentive award shall be subject to performance-based (as opposed to tenure-based) vesting conditions, as established by the
Board and/or the Committee. 
 Section 6. Employee Incentive Compensation and Benefit Programs. While Executive remains
employed by the Company, Executive shall be entitled to participate, consistent with his rank and position (to the extent applicable), in addition to the annual incentive plans referenced in Section 5, in such other compensation, pension and
welfare benefit plans and programs of the Company as are made available to the Company’s senior level executives or to its employees generally, as such plans or programs may be in effect from time to time, including, without limitation,
deferral, health, medical, dental, long-term disability, travel accident and life insurance plans, subject to eligibility. The Company expressly retains the right to modify or terminate any such compensation, pension and welfare benefit plans and
programs in its sole discretion. In no case shall Executive be awarded any options or stock appreciation rights with an exercise price less than 100% of Fair Market Value. For purposes of this Agreement, “Fair Market Value” shall be equal
to the price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant of such award as determined pursuant to the related award. 

Section 7. Reimbursement of Business and Other Expenses. Executive is authorized to incur reasonable expenses in carrying
out his duties and responsibilities under this Agreement, and the Company shall promptly reimburse him for all such business expenses incurred in connection therewith, subject to documentation in accordance with the Company’s business expense
reimbursement policies. All such reimbursements will be made in any event no later than the last day of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the 

  
 6 

 
expense was incurred. The expenses reimbursed by the Company during any taxable year of Executive will not affect the expenses reimbursed by the Company in another taxable year. Further, this
right to reimbursement is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. 
 Section 8. Termination of
Employment. 
 (a) Termination Due to Death or Disability. In the event Executive’s employment with the Company
is terminated due to his death or Disability (as defined below), Executive, his estate or his beneficiaries, as the case may be, shall be entitled to, and his or their sole remedies under this Agreement shall be: 

(i) Base Salary through the date of death or Disability, which shall be paid in a single lump sum not later than 15 days
following Executive’s termination of employment as a result of death or Disability; 
 (ii) the balance of
any incentive awards earned as of December 31 of the prior year (but not yet paid), which shall be paid in a single lump sum not later than 15 days following Executive’s termination of employment as a result of death or Disability;

 (iii) the immediate vesting of all unvested equity awards held by Executive as of the date of death or
Disability (performance-based awards shall vest at the “target” level); and 
 (iv) all other or
additional benefits then due or earned in accordance with applicable plans and programs of the Company. 
 For purposes of this
Agreement, the term “Disability” has the same meaning as provided in the long-term disability plan or policy maintained (or, if applicable, most recently maintained) by the Company or, if applicable, a Subsidiary (as defined below)
or affiliate of the Company for Executive, whether or not Executive actually receives disability benefits under the plan or policy. If no long-term disability plan or policy was ever maintained on behalf of Executive, “Disability” means
“Permanent and Total Disability” as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code. In a dispute, the determination whether Executive has suffered a Disability will be made by the Committee and may be supported by the advice of a physician
competent in the area to which that Disability relates. 
 (b) Termination by the Company for Cause. 

(i) “Cause” shall mean: 

(A) Executive’s willful and material breach of Sections 10, 11 or 12 of this Agreement; 

(B) Executive is convicted of, or enters a plea of nolo contendere to, a felony; 

  
 7 

 (C) Executive engages in conduct that constitutes willful gross neglect or
willful gross misconduct in carrying out his duties under this Agreement, willful violation of the Company’s code of conduct, or willfully fails to follow reasonable and lawful directives of the Board which are consistent with this Agreement
resulting, in either case, in material harm to the financial condition or reputation of the Company; or 
 (D)
Executive engages in an act or series of acts constituting misconduct resulting in a misstatement of the Company’s financial statements due to material non-compliance with any financial reporting requirement within the meaning of
Section 304 of The Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002. 
 For purposes of this Agreement, an act or failure to act on
Executive’s part shall be considered “willful” if it was done or omitted to be done by him intentionally and not in good faith, and shall not include any act or failure to act resulting from any incapacity of Executive.

 (ii) A termination for Cause shall not take effect until a determination by the Board that, in its judgment,
grounds for termination of Executive for Cause exist. 
 (iii) In the event the Company terminates
Executive’s employment for Cause, he shall be entitled to: 
 (A) Base Salary through the date of the
termination of his employment for Cause, which shall be paid in a single lump sum at the time set out in Section 8(j) and (m) if such provisions are applicable with respect to such payment, or, if such provisions are not applicable, not
later than 15 days following Executive’s termination of employment; 
 (B) any incentive awards earned as of
December 31 of the prior year (but not yet paid) and not subject to Section 409A of the Code, which shall be paid in a single lump sum not later than 15 days following Executive’s termination of employment; and 

(C) other or additional benefits then due or earned in accordance with applicable plans or programs of the Company.

 (c) Termination by the Company Without Cause or Termination by Executive With Good Reason Prior to a Change in
Control. In the event Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated without Cause (meaning Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other than Cause (as defined in Section 8(b)), other than due to
death or Disability, which termination shall be effective as of the date specified by the Company in a written notice to Executive, or in the event Executive terminates his employment with Good Reason (as defined below), in either case prior to a
Change in Control (as defined below), Executive shall be entitled to: 

  
 8 

 (i) Base Salary through the date of termination of Executive’s
employment, which shall be paid in a single lump sum at the time set out in Section 8(j) and (m) if such provisions are applicable with respect to such payment, or, if such provisions are not applicable, not later than 15 days following
Executive’s termination of employment; 
 (ii) an amount equal to one and one-half
(1.5) times the sum of (A) the Base Salary, at the annualized rate in effect on the date of termination of Executive’s employment (or in the event a reduction in Base Salary is a basis for a termination with Good Reason, then the Base
Salary in effect immediately prior to such reduction), and (B) the greater of (x) an amount equal to the cash bonus earned for the previous fiscal year or (y) $318,750 (Three Hundred Eighteen Thousand, Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars),
which amount shall be payable in substantially equal monthly installments in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices for a period of 18 months beginning with the calendar month that immediately follows the Earliest Payment Date (the
“Severance Period”) unless otherwise required to be paid in accordance with Section 8(j); provided, however, that if Executive reaches the age of 65 at any time during the Severance Period, all payments pursuant to this
Section 8(c)(ii) shall cease after the monthly installment payment for the month that includes Executive’s
65th birthday and Executive shall forfeit any remaining
payments (for purposes of clarification, if Executive reaches age 65 in the eighth month of the Severance Period he shall receive the eighth monthly installment payment per the Company’s normal payroll practices and forfeit the remaining ten
monthly installment payments); provided, further, that if any payments due under this Section 8(c)(ii) are delayed pursuant to Section 8(j) of this Agreement then, notwithstanding the foregoing, those payments (ending with the payment for
the month that includes Executive’s 65th birthday)
will be made pursuant to Section 8(j); 
 (iii) the balance of any incentive awards earned as of
December 31 of the prior year (but not yet paid) and not subject to Section 409A of the Code, which shall be paid in a single lump sum not later than 15 days following Executive’s termination of employment; 

(iv) continued participation in the Company’s group health plans for Executive and his dependants who are qualified
beneficiaries for purposes of continuation coverage under COBRA at the same benefit levels at which he and such dependants were participating on the date of the termination of his employment at the same premiums paid by similarly situated active
employees during the applicable time period allowed for continuation of coverage under COBRA (the “COBRA Period”) until the earlier of the expiration of the Severance Period or the date on which Executive receives substantially
comparable coverage and benefits under the group health plans of a subsequent employer (the “Continued Participation Period”); provided, however, if the COBRA Period terminates prior to the expiration of the Continued Participation
Period, during the remainder of the Continued Participation Period Executive and such dependants will not be entitled to continued participation in the group health plans, and the Company will pay directly to Executive, on a monthly basis during the
remainder of the Continued Participation Period, an amount equal to the amount previously expended monthly by the 

  
 9 

 
Company as of the end of the COBRA Period for Executive’s and such dependants’ continued participation in the group health plans, and 

(v) other or additional benefits then due or earned in accordance with applicable plans and programs of the Company.

 A termination with “Good Reason” shall mean a termination of Executive’s employment at his initiative
as provided in this Section 8(c) following the occurrence, without Executive’s written consent, of one or more of the following events (except as a result of a prior termination):

 (A) any Person (other than the Company, any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under any employee benefit plan of the Company, or any company owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders
of the Company immediately prior to the occurrence with respect to which the evaluation is being made in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the common stock of the Company) becomes the Beneficial Owner (except that a Person
shall be deemed to be the Beneficial Owner of all shares that any such Person has the right to acquire pursuant to any agreement or arrangement or upon exercise of conversion rights, warrants or options or otherwise, without regard to the sixty day
period referred to in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary (as defined below), representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s or such
subsidiary’s then outstanding securities; 

  
 10 

 (B) during any 12-month period, individuals who at the beginning of such

the Board or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the 12-month period or whose election or
nomination for election was previously so approved but excluding for this purpose any such new director whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of either an actual or threatened election contest (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11
of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act) or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of an individual, corporation, partnership, group, associate or other entity or Person other than the Board,
cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; 
 (C) the consummation of a merger or
consolidation of the Company or any subsidiary owning directly or indirectly all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company (a “Significant Subsidiary”) with any other entity, other than a merger or consolidation
which would result in the voting securities of the Company or a Significant Subsidiary outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving or
resulting entity) more than 50% of the combined voting power of the surviving or resulting entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; or 
 (D) the consummation of a sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company (other than such a sale or disposition immediately after which such assets will be owned
directly or indirectly by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the common stock of the Company immediately prior to such sale or disposition). 

For purposes of this definition: 
 The term “Beneficial Owner” shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act (including any successor to such Rule). 

The term “Exchange Act” means the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended from time to time, or any

 11 

 (d) Voluntary Termination. In the event of a termination of employment by Executive
on his own initiative, other than a termination due to death, a termination with Good Reason or a Retirement pursuant to Section 8(f) below, Executive shall have the same entitlements as provided in Section 8(b)(iii) above for a
termination for Cause. 
 (e) Termination by the Company Without Cause or Termination by Executive With Good Reason Following
a Change in Control. If Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause (which termination shall be effective as of the date specified by the Company in a written notice to Executive), other than due to
death or Disability, or in the event Executive terminates his employment with Good Reason (as defined above), in either case within one year following a Change in Control (as defined above), Executive shall be entitled to: 

(i) Base Salary through the date of termination of Executive’s employment, which shall be paid in a single lump sum
at the time set out in Section 8(j) and (m) if such provisions are applicable with respect to such payment, or, if such provisions are not applicable, not later than 15 days following Executive’s termination of employment; 

(ii) an amount equal to two (2) times the sum of (A) the Base Salary, at the annualized rate in effect on the
date of termination of Executive’s employment (or in the event a reduction in Base Salary is a basis for a termination with Good Reason, then the Base Salary in effect immediately prior to such reduction), and (B) the greater of
(x) an amount equal to the cash bonus earned for the previous fiscal year or (y) $318,750 (Three Hundred Eighteen Thousand, Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars), which amount shall be payable in lump sum on the Earliest Payment Date, unless
otherwise required to be paid in accordance with Section 8(j); 
 (iii) the balance of any incentive awards
earned as of December 31 of the prior year (but not yet paid) and not subject to Section 409A of the Code, which shall be paid in a single lump sum not later than 15 days following Executive’s termination of employment; 

(iv) continued participation in the Company’s group health plans for Executive and his dependants who are qualified
beneficiaries for purposes of continuation coverage under COBRA at the same benefit levels at which he and such dependants were participating on the date of the termination of his employment at the same premiums paid by similarly situated active
employees during the applicable time period allowed for continuation of coverage under COBRA (the “COBRA Period”) until the earlier of the expiration of the Severance Period or the date on which Executive receives substantially
comparable coverage and benefits under the group health plans of a subsequent employer (the “Continued Participation Period”); provided, however, if the COBRA Period terminates prior to the expiration of the Continued Participation
Period, during the remainder of the Continued Participation Period Executive and such dependants will not be entitled to continued participation in the group health plans, and the Company will pay directly to Executive, on a monthly basis during the
remainder of the Continued Participation Period, an amount equal to the amount previously expended monthly by the 

  
 12 

 
Company as of the end of the COBRA Period for Executive’s and such dependants’ continued participation in the group health plans, and 

(v) other or additional benefits then due or earned in accordance with applicable plans and programs of the Company.

 Further, upon a Change of Control, all unvested equity awards held by Executive as of the date of the Change of Control shall
vest (performance-based awards shall vest at the “target” level), and Executive shall be entitled to the benefit of all such awards immediately. 
 (f) Retirement. Upon Executive’s Retirement (as defined below), Executive shall be entitled to: 
 (i) Base Salary through the date of termination of Executive’s employment, which shall be paid in a single lump sum at the time set out in Section 8(j) and (m) if such provisions are
applicable with respect to such payment, or, if such provisions are not applicable, not later than 15 days following Executive’s termination of employment; 
 (ii) the balance of any incentive awards earned as of December 31 of the prior year (but not yet paid) and not subject to Section 409A of the Code, which shall be paid in a single lump sum not
later than 15 days following Executive’s termination of employment; 
 (iii) the immediate vesting of all
unvested equity awards held by Executive as of the date of Retirement, other than awards which are intended to constitute performance-based compensation within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code and for which performance standards have
not been met; 
 (iv) an amount equal to the sum of (A) the Base Salary, at the annualized rate in effect on
the date of termination of Executive’s employment, and (B) the greater of (x) an amount equal to the cash bonus earned for the previous fiscal year or (y) $318,750 (Three Hundred Eighteen Thousand, Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars),
which amount shall be payable in substantially equal monthly installments in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices for a period of twelve months beginning with the calendar month that immediately follows the Earliest Payment Date
(unless otherwise required to be paid in accordance with Section 8(j)); and 
 (v) all other or additional
benefits then due or earned in accordance with applicable plans and programs of the Company. 
 For purposes of this Agreement,
“Retirement” shall mean Executive’s voluntary retirement from employment with the Company: (i) after the age of 55, provided that Executive has been employed by the Company continuously for at least ten years as of the
date of retirement, (ii) after the age of 60, provided that Executive has been employed by the Company continuously for at least five years as of the date of retirement or (iii) as approved by the Board in its sole discretion. 

  
 13 

 (g) No Mitigation; No Offset. In the event of any termination of employment,
Executive shall be under no obligation to seek other employment; amounts due Executive under this Agreement shall not be offset by any remuneration attributable to any subsequent employment that he may obtain. 

(h) Nature of Payments. Any amounts due under this Section 8 are in the nature of severance payments considered to be
reasonable by the Company and are not in the nature of a penalty. The benefits described in Sections 8(a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) are mutually exclusive and Executive shall not be entitled to benefits under more than one such Section.

 (i) No Further Liability; Release. In the event of Executive’s termination of employment, payment made and
performance by the Company in accordance with this Section 8 shall, subject to Section 24 hereof, operate to fully discharge and release the Company and its directors, officers, employees, subsidiaries, affiliates, stockholders,
successors, assigns, agents and representatives from any further obligation or liability with respect to Executive’s rights under this Agreement. Other than payment and performance under this Section 8, and other than the rights of
Executive that survive the termination of this Agreement, as provided in Section 24 hereof, the Company and its directors, officers, employees, subsidiaries, affiliates, stockholders, successors, assigns, agents and representatives shall have
no further obligation or liability to Executive or any other person under this Agreement in the event of Executive’s termination of employment. The Company conditions the payment of any severance or other amounts pursuant to this Section 8
upon (A) the delivery by Executive to the Company of a release in a form satisfactory to the Company, substantially in the form attached hereto as Attachment 1, within such time following his termination of employment as will permit the
release to become irrevocable on or before the Earliest Payment Date and (B) such release actually becoming irrevocable by the Earliest Payment Date. 
 (j) Section 409A Specified Employee. If Executive is a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, to the extent required to comply with Section 409A of
the Code, any payments required to be made pursuant to this Section 8 which are deferred compensation and subject to Section 409A of the Code (and do not qualify for an exemption thereunder) shall not commence until one day after the day
which is six (6) months from the date of termination (determined under Section 8(m)). Should this Section 8(j) result in a delay of payments to Executive, on the first day any such payments may be made without incurring a penalty
pursuant to Section 409A (the “409A Payment Date”), the Company shall begin to make such payments as described in this Section 8, provided that any amounts that would have been payable earlier but for application of this
Section 8(j) shall be paid in lump-sum on the 409A Payment Date. 
 (k) Termination Without Cause Within 90 Days Prior
to a Change in Control. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated without Cause within 90 days prior to the date on which the Change in Control occurs, such
termination shall be deemed to have occurred after a Change in Control for purposes of this Agreement. 

  
 14 

 (l) Financial Security for Payments Following a Change in Control. Following a Change
in Control, at the request of Executive, the Company or its successor shall provide financial security reasonably acceptable to Executive for its obligations to make payments required by this Agreement. 

(m) Separation from Service. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, no payment shall be made under this
Section 8 unless the termination of employment or Retirement that gives rise to the payment also constitutes a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder, and
solely for purposes of making the payments called for under this Section 8, the first date as of which Executive has a separation from service shall be treated as the date his employment terminates. 

Section 9. Forfeiture Provisions. 
 (a) Forfeiture of Stock Options and Other Awards and Gains Realized Upon Prior Option Exercises or Award Settlements and Severance Payments. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee,
(i) Executive’s violation of the restrictive covenants contained in Section 10 as they relate only to trade secrets, at any time while employed by the Company or thereafter, (ii) Executive’s violation of the restrictive
covenants contained in Section 10 as they relate to all Confidential Information other than trade secrets, at any time while employed by the Company and for a period of 60 months thereafter or (iii) Executive’s violation of any of the
restrictive covenants contained in Sections 11, 12 or 13 (each a “Forfeiture Event”) will result in: 
 (i) The unexercised portion of any stock option, whether or not vested, and any other Award (as defined below) not then settled (except for an Award that has not been settled solely due to an elective
deferral by Executive and otherwise is not forfeitable in the event of any termination of Executive’s service) will be immediately forfeited and canceled upon the occurrence of the Forfeiture Event; 

(ii) Executive will be obligated to repay to the Company, in cash, within five business days after demand is made therefor
by the Company, the total amount of Award Gain (as defined herein) realized by Executive upon each exercise of a stock option or settlement of an Award (regardless of any elective deferral) that occurred (A) during the period commencing with
the date that is 6 months prior to the occurrence of the Forfeiture Event and the date 18 months after the Forfeiture Date, if the Forfeiture Event occurred while Executive was employed by the Company or a Subsidiary or affiliate, or (B) during
the period commencing 6 months prior to the date Executive’s employment by the Company terminated and ending 18 months after the date of such termination, if the Forfeiture Event occurred after Executive ceased to be so employed. For purposes
of this Section 9, the term “Award Gain” shall mean (i), in respect of a given stock option exercise, the product of (X) the Fair Market Value per share of common stock at the date of such exercise (without regard to any
subsequent change in the market price of shares) minus the exercise price times (Y) the number of shares as to which the stock option was exercised at that date, and (ii), in respect of any other settlement of an Award granted to

  
 15 

 
Executive, the Fair Market Value of the cash or stock paid or payable to Executive (regardless of any elective deferral) less any cash or the Fair Market Value of any stock or property (other
than an Award or award which would have itself then been forfeitable hereunder and excluding any payment of tax withholding) paid by Executive to the Company as a condition of or in connection such settlement; and 

(iii) Executive will be obligated to repay to the Company, in cash, within five business days after demand is made
therefor by the Company, the total amount of any payments made by the Company to Executive or on Executive’s behalf under Sections 8(c)(ii), 8(c)(iv), 8(e)(ii), 8(e)(iv) and 8(f)(iv). 

For purposes of this Section 9, “Award” shall mean any cash award, stock option, stock appreciation right,
restricted stock, deferred stock, bonus stock, dividend equivalent, or other stock-based or performance-based award or similar award, together with any related right or interest, granted to or held by Executive. 

(b) Committee Discretion. The Committee may, in its discretion, waive in whole or in part the Company’s right to forfeiture
under this Section 9, but no such waiver shall be effective unless evidenced by a writing signed by a duly authorized officer of the Company. In addition, the Committee may impose additional conditions on Awards, by inclusion of appropriate
provisions in the document evidencing or governing any such Award. 
 Section 10. Confidentiality; Cooperation with Regard to
Litigation; Non-Disparagement; Return of Company Materials. 
 (a) During the Term of Employment and thereafter, Executive
shall not, without the prior written consent of the Company, disclose to anyone (except in good faith in the ordinary course of business to a person who will be advised by Executive to keep such information confidential) or make use of any
Confidential Information (as defined below), except in the performance of his duties hereunder or when required to do so by legal process, by any governmental agency having supervisory authority over the business of the Company or by any
administrative or legislative body (including a committee thereof) that requires him to divulge, disclose or make accessible such information. In the event that Executive is so ordered, he shall give prompt written notice to the Company in order to
allow the Company the opportunity to object to or otherwise resist such order. 
 (b) During the Term of Employment and
thereafter, Executive shall not disclose the existence or contents of this Agreement beyond what is disclosed in the proxy statement or documents filed with the government unless and to the extent such disclosure is required by law, by a
governmental agency, or in a document required by law to be filed with a governmental agency or in connection with enforcement of his rights under this Agreement. This restriction shall not apply to such disclosure by him to members of his immediate
family, his tax, legal or financial advisors, any lender, or tax authorities, or to potential future employers to the extent necessary, each of whom shall be advised not to disclose such information. 

  
 16 

 (c) “Confidential Information” shall mean all information regarding the
Company, its activities, business or customers that is the subject of reasonable efforts by the Company to maintain its confidentiality, including (i) information concerning the business of the Company or any Subsidiary including information
relating to any of their products, product development, trade secrets, customers, suppliers, finances, and business plans and strategies, and (ii) information regarding the organization structure and the names, titles, status, compensation,
benefits and other proprietary employment-related aspects of the employees of the Company and the Company’s employment practices. Excluded from the definition of Confidential Information is information (A) that is or becomes part of the
public domain, other than through the breach of this Agreement by Executive or (B) regarding the Company’s business or industry properly acquired by Executive in the course of his career as an executive in the Company’s industry and
independent of Executive’s employment by the Company. For this purpose, information known or available generally within the trade or industry of the Company or any Subsidiary shall be deemed to be known or available to the public. 

(d) “Subsidiary” shall mean any corporation controlled directly or indirectly by the Company. 

(e) Executive agrees to cooperate with the Company, during the Term of Employment and thereafter (including following Executive’s
termination of employment for any reason), by making himself reasonably available to testify on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary in any action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative, other than an
action, suit, or proceeding in which Executive makes claims against the Company or in which the Company makes claims against him, and to assist the Company, or any Subsidiary, in any such action, suit, or proceeding, by providing information and
meeting and consulting with the Board or its representatives or counsel, or representatives or counsel to the Company, or any Subsidiary as requested; provided, however that the same does not materially interfere with his then current professional
activities; and provided, further, that nothing contained in this Section 10(e) is intended to prevent Executive from exercising his constitutional right to avoid self-incrimination. The Company agrees to reimburse Executive, on an after-tax
basis, for all reasonable expenses (including legal fees and expenses) actually incurred in connection with his provision of testimony or assistance. 
 (f) Executive agrees that, during the Term of Employment and thereafter (including following Executive’s termination of employment for any reason) he will not make statements or representations, or
otherwise communicate, directly or indirectly, in writing, orally, or otherwise, or take any action which may, directly or indirectly, disparage the Company or any Subsidiary or their respective officers, directors, employees, advisors, businesses
or reputations. The Company agrees that, during the Term of Employment and thereafter (including following Executive’s termination of employment for any reason) the Company will not make statements or representations, or otherwise communicate,
directly or indirectly, in writing, orally, or otherwise, or take any action which may directly or indirectly, disparage Executive or his business or reputation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 10(f) shall preclude either
Executive or the Company from making truthful statements or disclosures that are required by applicable law, regulation, or legal process or otherwise pursuing, in good faith, enforcement of their respective rights under this Agreement. 

  
 17 

 (g) Executive recognizes that all Confidential Information and copies or reproductions
thereof, relating to the Company’s operations and activities made or received by Executive in the course of his Employment are the exclusive property of the Company. Upon any termination of employment, Executive agrees to deliver any Company
property and any documents, notes, drawings, specifications, computer software, data and other materials of any nature pertaining to any Confidential Information that are held by Executive and will not take any of the foregoing, or any reproduction
of any of the foregoing, that is embodied in any tangible medium of expression, provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit Executive from retaining his personal phone directories and rolodexes. 

Section 11. Non-competition/Prior Employment Covenants. 
 (a) During Executive’s employment by the Company, Executive shall refrain from, without the written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly, whether individually or as an employee, consultant,
principal, agent, officer, director, partner, shareholder (except as a less than one percent shareholder of a publicly traded company) or owner of or in any capacity with any corporation, partnership, business, company or other entity, carrying on
or engaging in, or assisting another to carry on or engage in, any other business, work or activity similar to the business, work or activity of the Company or its affiliates. During the Restriction Period (as defined below), Executive shall refrain
from, without the written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly, whether individually or as an employee, consultant, principal, agent, officer, director, partner, shareholder (except as a less than one percent shareholder of a publicly
traded company) or owner of or in any capacity with any corporation, partnership, business, company or other entity, (i) carrying on or engaging in, or assisting another to carry on or engage in, any other business, work or activity similar to
the business, work or activity of the Company or its affiliates in the geographical areas listed on Attachment 2 (the “Restricted Areas”) in which the Company or its affiliates are then engaged in business, and
(ii) soliciting customers of the Company or its affiliates in the Restricted Area. The Parties acknowledge that home health care and hospice are similar “businesses” for the purposes of this Section 11 and that the work and
activity of the Company includes filing applications with Federal and state regulatory authorities in connection with establishing “start-up” home health care and hospice agencies. The Parties further acknowledge that the Company is
expanding and in order to prevent ongoing, repetitious amendments to this Agreement solely for the purpose of updating the Restricted Areas, the Parties agree that the Restricted Areas, inclusive of Attachment 2, shall be self-amending to
include all parishes, counties and States in which the Company conducts business or actively solicits business at any time during Executive’s employment with the Company and in no event shall such Restricted Areas be less than that contained in
Attachment 2. The Parties intend and agree that Executive’s continued employment thereafter shall serve as the Parties’ constructive acceptance of an amendment to enlarge the Restricted Areas. 

(b) For the purposes of this Section 11, “Restriction Period” shall mean the period beginning with the Effective
Date and ending with: 
 (i) in the case of a termination of Executive’s employment by the Company without
Cause or a termination by Executive with Good Reason, pursuant to Section 

  
 18 

 
8(c)(whether during or after the Term of Employment), the Restriction Period shall terminate 18 months from the date of such termination; 

(ii) in the case of a termination of Executive’s employment for Cause pursuant to Section 8(b) or in the case of
a voluntary termination of Executive’s employment pursuant to Section 8(d) above (whether during or after the Term of Employment), 18 months from the date of such termination; 

(iii) in the case of a Retirement pursuant to Section 8(f) above or a termination due to Disability pursuant to
Section 8(a), 18 months from the date of Retirement or the date of the termination due to Disability; 

(iv) in the case of any termination of Executive’s employment pursuant to Section 8(e) above, 18 months from the
date of such termination. 
 (c) Executive represents and warrants to the Company that performance of Executive’s duties
pursuant to this Agreement will not violate any agreements with or trade secrets of any other person or entity or previous employers, including without limitation agreements containing provisions against solicitation or competition. 

Section 12. Non-solicitation of Employees and Customers. During the period beginning with the Effective Date and ending 18 months
following the termination of Executive’s employment for any reason, Executive shall not induce: (i) employees of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate their employment (provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be construed to
prevent Executive from engaging in general non-targeted advertising for employees generally), or (ii) customers of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate their relationship with the Company, within the Restricted Areas. During such period,
Executive shall not hire, either directly or through any employee, agent or representative, any employee of the Company or any Subsidiary or any person who was employed by the Company or any Subsidiary within 180 days of such hiring. 

Section 13. Standstill. Executive agrees that for a period of 18 months from the date of Executive’s termination of
employment for any reason, neither Executive nor any of his affiliates or persons or entities acting at his direction or with his assistance will, unless specifically invited in writing by the Board, acting by resolution approved by a majority of
all members of the Board, directly or indirectly, in any manner (the obligations pursuant to this Section 13 being referred to as, the “Standstill”): 
 (a) acquire, offer or propose to acquire, solicit an offer to sell or agree to acquire, directly or indirectly, alone or in concert with others, by purchase, tender offer, exchange offer, through the
acquisition or control of another person or entity, or otherwise, any direct or indirect beneficial interest in any voting securities or direct or indirect rights, warrants or options to acquire, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for,
any voting securities of the Company or any Subsidiary, other than the acquisition in the aggregate of less than one-half of one percent of the outstanding voting securities of the Company; 

  
 19 

 (b) make, or in any way participate in, directly or indirectly, alone or in concert with
others, any “solicitation” (as such term is used in the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act) of proxies or consents to vote, whether subject to or exempt from
the proxy rules, or seek to advise, encourage or influence in any manner whatsoever any person or entity with respect to the voting of any voting securities of the Company or any Subsidiary; 

(c) initiate, propose or “solicit” (as such term is used in the proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission)
stockholders of the Company or any Subsidiary for the approval of stockholder proposals whether made pursuant to Rule 14a-8 or Rule 14a-4 under the Exchange Act, or otherwise, or cause or encourage or attempt to cause or encourage others to initiate
any such stockholder proposal; or otherwise communicate with the Company’s or its Subsidiaries’ stockholders or others in connection with the solicitation of proxies or consents or matters presented to the Company’s or its
Subsidiaries’ stockholders; 
 (d) form, join or any way participate in a “group” within the meaning of
Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act with respect to any voting securities of the Company or the Subsidiaries; 
 (e)
acquire, offer to acquire or agree to acquire, directly or indirectly, alone or in concert with others, by purchase, exchange or otherwise, (i) any of the assets, tangible and intangible, of the Company or any Subsidiary or (ii) direct or
indirect rights, warrants or options to acquire any assets of the Company or any Subsidiary; 
 (f) arrange, or in any way
participate, directly or indirectly, in any financing for the purchase of any voting securities or securities convertible or exchangeable into or exercisable for any voting securities or assets of the Company or any Subsidiary; 

(g) otherwise act, alone or in concert with others, to seek to propose to the Company or any Subsidiary or any of their respective
stockholders or make any public statement with respect to any merger, business combination, consolidation, sale, tender offer, exchange offer, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, liquidation, recapitalization or other transaction involving
the Company or any Subsidiary; 
 (h) seek, alone or in concert with others, to control, change or influence the management, the
Board or policies of the Company or any Subsidiary, or otherwise seek, alone or in concert with others, election or appointment to or representation on, or to nominate or propose the nomination of any candidate to, the Board or the removal of any
member of the Board, or propose any matter to be voted upon by the stockholders of the Company or any Subsidiary; 
 (i) make
any publicly disclosed proposal, public statement, public inquiry or public disclosure of any intention, plan, or arrangement (whether written or oral) inconsistent with the foregoing, or make or disclose any request or proposal to amend, waive or
terminate any provision of this Standstill or seek permission to or make any public announcement with respect to any provision of the Standstill; or 

  
 20 

 (j) announce an intention to do, or to enter into any arrangement or understanding with
others (whether written or oral) to do, or to finance, intentionally advise, enable, assist or encourage others to do any of the actions restricted or prohibited under clauses (a) through (j) of this Standstill, or take any action that
might result in the Company having to make a public announcement regarding any of the matters referred to in clauses (a) through (j) of this Standstill, or otherwise intentionally take, or solicit, or cause or encourage others to take, any
action inconsistent with the foregoing. 
 Section 14. Remedies. In addition to whatever other rights and remedies the
Company may have at equity or in law (including without limitation, the right to seek monetary damages), if Executive breaches any of the provisions contained in Sections 10, 11, 12 or 13, the Company (a) shall have its rights under
Section 9 of this Agreement, (b) shall, notwithstanding Section 15, have the right to immediately terminate all payments and benefits due under this Agreement (other than payments under Section 16 of this Agreement, to the extent
that Executive’s right to indemnification was not triggered by Executive’s breach of this Agreement) and (c) shall, notwithstanding Section 15 of this Agreement, have the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief,
including but not limited to, the right to seek a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or permanent injunction, without the requirement to prove actual damages or to post any bond or other security. Executive hereby waves the
requirement of posting bond or other security and acknowledges that such a breach of Sections 10, 11, 12 or 13 would cause irreparable injury and that money damages alone would not provide an adequate remedy for the Company; provided, however, the
foregoing shall not prevent Executive from contesting the issuance of any such injunction on the ground that no violation or threatened violation of Sections 10, 11, 12 or 13 has occurred. 

Section 15. Resolution of Disputes. In the event that a Party to this Agreement has any claim, right or cause of action against
another Party to this Agreement, which the Parties are unable to settle by agreement between themselves, such claim, right or cause of action, to the extent that the relief sought by such Party is for monetary damages or awards, will be determined
by arbitration in accordance with the provisions of this Section 15. Except as provided in this Section 15, the arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (the
“AAA”). The arbitration and all arbitration proceedings shall be kept confidential. 
 (a) The Party claiming a
cause of action or breach of this Agreement shall first provide the other Party with written notice of the breach. If the breach is not remedied within 15 days of said notice, the Party claiming the breach may request arbitration by serving upon the
other a demand therefor, in writing, specifying the matter to be submitted to arbitration, and nominating a competent disinterested person to act as an arbitrator. Within 15 days after receipt of such written demand and nomination, the other Party
will, in writing, nominate a competent disinterested person, and the two arbitrators so designated will, within 15 days thereafter, select a third arbitrator. The three arbitrators will give immediate written notice of such selection to the Parties
and will fix in said notice a time and place of the meeting of the arbitrators which will be in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where all proceedings will be conducted, and will be held as soon as conveniently possible (but in no event later than 45 days
after the appointment of the third arbitrator), at which time and place the Parties to the controversy will appear and be heard with 

  
 21 

 
respect to the right, claim or cause of action. In case the notified Party or Parties will fail to make a selection upon notice within the time period specified, the Party asserting such claim
will appoint an arbitrator on behalf of the notified Party. In the event that the first two arbitrators selected will fail to agree upon a third arbitrator within 15 days after their selection, then such arbitrator may, upon application made by
either of the Parties to the controversy, be appointed by the AAA. 
 (b) Each Party will present such testimony, examinations
and investigations in accordance with such procedures and regulations as may be determined by the arbitrators and will also recommend to the arbitrators a monetary award to be adopted by the arbitrators as the complete disposition of such claim,
right or cause of action. After hearing the Parties in regard to the matter in dispute, the arbitrators will make their determination with respect to such claim, right or cause of action, within 30 days of the completion of the examination, by
majority decision signed in writing (together with a brief written statement of the reasons for adopting such recommendation), and will deliver such written determination to each of the Parties. The decision of said arbitrators, absent fraud, duress
or manifest error, will be final and binding upon the Parties to such controversy and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrators may consult with and engage disinterested third parties to advise the arbitrators. The
arbitrators shall not award any punitive damages. If any of the arbitrators selected hereunder should die, resign or be unable to perform his or her duties hereunder, the remaining arbitrators or the AAA shall select a replacement arbitrator. The
procedure set forth in this Section for selecting the arbitrators shall be followed from time to time as necessary. As to any claim, controversy, dispute or disagreement that under the terms hereof is made subject to arbitration, no lawsuit based on
such matters shall be instituted by any of the Parties, other than to compel arbitration proceedings or enforce the award of a majority of the arbitrators. All privileges under Louisiana and federal law, including attorney-client and work-product
privileges, shall be preserved and protected to the same extent that such privileges would be protected in a federal court proceeding applying Louisiana law. 
 (c) The Company shall be responsible for advancing the cost of the arbitrators as well as the other costs of the arbitration. Each Party will pay the fees and expenses of its own counsel, except that with
respect to those claims for which Executive is ultimately the prevailing party, the Company shall reimburse all of Executive’s reasonable out-of-pocket legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with asserting or defending against claims as
to which Executive prevails within thirty (30) days of receipt of a written demand accompanied by reasonable documentation in support thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such reimbursements will be made in no event later than the last day
of Executive’s taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was incurred; the expenses reimbursed by the Company during any taxable year of Executive will not affect the expenses reimbursed by the Company in another taxable
year; and this right to reimbursement is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. 
 (d) Notwithstanding any
other provisions of this Section 15, in the event that a Party against whom any claim, right or cause of action is asserted commences, or has commenced against it, bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceedings, the Party or Parties asserting
such claim, right or cause of action will have no obligations under this Section 15 and may assert such 

  
 22 

 
claim, right or cause of action in the manner and forum it deems appropriate, subject to applicable laws. No determination or decision by the arbitrators pursuant to this Section 15 will
limit or restrict the ability of any Party hereto to obtain or seek in any appropriate forum, any relief or remedy that is not a monetary award or money damages. 
 (e) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 15, if the Company is seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from a dispute arising under or in connection with Sections 10, 11, 12 or
13, the arbitration requirements of this Section 15 shall not apply. 
 (f) Any court proceedings relating to this
Agreement shall be filed exclusively in the federal and state courts domiciled in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and the Parties hereto consent to the venue and jurisdiction of such courts. 

Section 16. Indemnification. 
 (a) Company Indemnity. The Company agrees that if Executive is made a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer or employee of the Company or any Subsidiary or is or was serving at the request of the Company or any Subsidiary as a director, officer,
member, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, whether the basis of such Proceeding is Executive’s alleged action or failure to
act in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent or while serving as a director, officer, member, employee or agent, Executive shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company to the fullest extent legally permitted or
authorized by the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws or resolutions of the Company’s Board or, if greater, by the laws of the State of Delaware (or, with respect to Holding, the laws of the State of Louisiana), against all
cost, expense, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by Executive in connection
therewith, provided Executive provides Company with prompt notice of such action or threatened action (but failure to provide prompt notice shall not prejudice Executive except to the extent it actually prejudices the Company). Such indemnification
shall continue as to Executive even if he has ceased to be a director, member, officer, employee or agent of the Company or other entity and shall inure to the benefit of Executive’s heirs, executors and administrators. The Company shall
advance to Executive all reasonable costs and expenses to be incurred by him in connection with a Proceeding within 20 days after receipt by the Company of a written request for such advance. Such request shall include an undertaking by Executive to
repay the amount of such advance if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified against such costs and expenses. The provisions of this Section 16(a) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights of
indemnification to which Executive may be entitled or which may be granted to him, and it shall be in addition to any rights of indemnification to which he may be entitled under any policy of insurance. 

(b) No Presumption Regarding Standard of Conduct. Neither the failure of the Company (including its Board, independent legal
counsel or stockholders) to have made a 

  
 23 

 
determination prior to the commencement of any proceeding concerning payment of amounts claimed by Executive under Section 16(a) above that indemnification of Executive is proper because he
has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor a determination by the Company (including its Board, independent legal counsel or stockholders) that Executive has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that Executive
has not met the applicable standard of conduct. 
 Section 17. Potential Reduction in Payments 

(a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if any payment, distribution, or other benefit provided by the Company to
or for the benefit of Executive, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (collectively, the “Payments”), (x) constitute a “parachute payment” within
the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (y) but for this Section 17 would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code or any similar or successor provision thereto (the “Excise Tax”),
then the Payments shall be either: 
 (i) delivered in full pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or

 (ii) delivered to such lesser extent as would result in no portion of the payments being subject to the Excise
Tax 
 as determined in accordance with Section 17(b). 
 (b) The determination of whether Section 17(a)(i) or Section 17(a)(ii) shall be given effect shall be made by the Company on the basis of which of such clauses results in the receipt by the
Executive of the greater Net After-Tax Receipt (as defined below) of the aggregate Payments; provided, however, that if the Net After-Tax Receipt of the aggregate Payments under Section 17(a)(i) does not exceed the Net After-Tax Receipt of the
aggregate Payments under Section 17(a)(ii) by Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) or greater, Section 17(a)(ii) automatically shall be given effect. The term “Net After-Tax Receipt” shall mean the present value (as
determined in accordance with Section 280G of the Code) of the payments net of all applicable federal, state and local income, employment, and other applicable taxes and the Excise Tax. 

(c) If Section 17(a)(ii) is given effect, the reduction shall be accomplished first by reducing cash Payments under
Section 8(e)(ii) of this Agreement and then by forfeiting any equity-based awards that vest and become payable under Section 8(e)(iv) of this Agreement, starting with the most recent equity-based awards that vest pursuant to such section,
to the extent necessary to accomplish such reduction. 
 (d) Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any
determination required under this Section 17 shall be made by the Company’s independent accountants or compensation consultants (the “Third Party”), after due consideration of Executive’s comments with respect to the
interpretation and application thereof, and all such determinations shall be conclusive, final and binding on the parties hereto. The Company and Executive shall furnish to 

  
 24 

 
the Third Party such information and documents as the Third Party may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section 17. The Company shall bear all fees and costs of
the Third Party with respect to all determinations under or contemplated by this Section 17. 
 Section 18. Effect of
Agreement on Other Benefits. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, the existence of this Agreement shall not be interpreted to preclude, prohibit or restrict Executive’s participation in any other employee benefit or other
plans or programs in which he currently participates. 
 Section 19. Assignability: Binding Nature; Solidary Obligations.
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors, heirs (in the case of Executive) and permitted assigns. No rights or obligations of the Company under this Agreement may be assigned or
transferred by the Company except that such rights or obligations may be assigned or transferred in connection with a Change of Control of the Company, provided that the assignee or transferee is the successor to all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company and such assignee or transferee assumes the liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company, as contained in this Agreement, either contractually or as a matter of law. The Company further agrees that, in the event of a
Change of Control, it shall take whatever action it legally can in order to cause such assignee or transferee to expressly assume the liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company hereunder. No rights or obligations of Executive under this
Agreement may be assigned or transferred by Executive other than his rights to compensation and benefits, which may be transferred only by will or operation of law, except as provided in Section 25 below. Company and Holding are each solidarily
liable with the other of them for such other’s obligations under this Agreement. 
 Section 20. Representation. Each
of the Company and Holding represents and warrants that it is fully authorized and empowered to enter into this Agreement and that the performance of its obligations under this Agreement will not violate any agreement between it and any other
person, firm or organization. Executive hereby represents to the Company that he is physically and mentally capable of performing his duties hereunder and he has no knowledge of any present or past physical or mental conditions which would cause him
not to be able to perform his duties hereunder. 
 Section 21. Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire
understanding and agreement between the Parties concerning the subject matter hereof and, as of the Effective Date, supersedes the Prior Agreement and any other agreements, understandings, discussions, negotiations and undertakings, whether written
or oral, between the Parties with respect thereto, including, without limitation any prior change in control agreement between the Parties. 
 Section 22. Amendment or Waiver. No provision in this Agreement may be amended unless such amendment is agreed to in writing and signed by Executive and an authorized officer of the Company. Except
as set forth herein, no delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any Party shall impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of or an acquiescence to any breach hereof. No waiver by either
Party of any breach by the other Party of any condition or provision contained in this Agreement to be performed by such other Party shall be deemed a waiver of a similar or 

  
 25 

 
dissimilar condition or provision at the same or any prior or subsequent time. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by Executive or an authorized officer of the Company, as the case may be.

 Section 23. Severability. In the event that any provision or portion of this Agreement shall be determined to be
invalid or unenforceable for any reason, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be unaffected thereby and shall remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law. Specifically, but without
limitation, the parties agree that if any court of competent jurisdiction or any arbitral panel finds that any one or more of the words, phrases, sentences, clauses, sections, subdivisions, or subparagraphs contained in Sections 10, 11, 12 or 13 is
overly broad or unenforceable, then the Agreement should be reduced or amended to be enforceable to the maximum extent allowable under applicable law. 
 Section 24. Survival. Upon the termination of this Agreement, the respective rights and obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall terminate, except that (a) the provisions of
Sections 1 and 2, the second sentence of Section 3(a), Sections 8(g), (h), (i), (j) and (m), and Sections 9 through 30 of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement and remain in full force and effect in accordance with
their terms, and (b) the termination of this Agreement shall not affect any rights or obligations of the Parties accrued under the express terms of this Agreement prior to or in connection with such termination and, with respect to such
surviving provisions and those that survive under Section 3(a), thereafter. 
 Section 25. Beneficiaries/References.
Executive shall be entitled, to the extent permitted under any applicable law, to select and change a beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive any compensation or benefit payable hereunder following Executive’s death by giving the Company
written notice thereof. In the event of Executive’s death or a judicial determination of his incompetence, reference in this Agreement to Executive shall be deemed, where appropriate, to refer to his beneficiary, estate or other legal
representative. 
 Section 26. Governing Law/Exclusive Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed
and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Louisiana without reference to principles of conflict of laws. Subject to Section 15 and in accordance with Section 14, the Company and Executive hereby consent and irrevocably submit to the
jurisdiction of any or all of the following courts for purposes of resolving any dispute under this Agreement: (i) the United States District Court for the Middle District of Louisiana or (ii) the Nineteenth Judicial District Court for the
Parish of East Baton Rouge, State of Louisiana. The Parties agree that to the extent permitted, any lawsuit involving a dispute under this Agreement shall be filed and may proceed only in these referenced courts. The Company and Executive hereby
waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any jurisdictional, venue or inconvenient forum objection which it or he may now or hereafter have to these referenced courts. The Company and Executive further agree that any service of
process or notice requirements in any such proceeding shall be satisfied if the rules of such court relating thereto have been substantially satisfied. 
 Section 27. Notices. Any notices given under this Agreement shall be in writing, and delivered or mailed, and if mailed, postage prepaid, certified, return receipt requested and

  
 26 

 
addressed to the Company, to Holding and to Executive at the addresses set forth below, or such other addresses as the Parties may from time to time hereafter designate in writing, such notices
