Amendment to the Employee Restricted Stock Agreement dated February 3, 2014 
This Amendment is being entered into effective as of February 2, 2018, by and between Univar Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and David Jukes (the “Employee”).  This Amendment revises that Employee Restricted Stock Agreement between the Company and the Employee pursuant to the Univar Inc. 2011 Stock Incentive Plan and dated February 3, 2014 (the “Agreement”).  
1.The Company and the Employee agree that Section 8(a) of the Agreement is amended in its entirety to read as follows:  

(a)Withholding. The Employee shall pay any taxes that must be withheld in connection with the vesting of the Restricted Stock by either:

		
	(i)
	paying the Company in cash; or

(ii) directing the Company to retain that number of whole shares that have an aggregate fair market value (as of the Vesting Date) equal to the amount of the required withholding.  (The Company shall pay to the Employee in cash the value of any fractional share withheld in excess of the required amount.)  
The Employee may choose either of the above methods unless the retention of shares would be inconsistent with any law, regulation or financing term applicable to the Company (or any Subsidiary); in that event, the Employee must pay the Company in cash.  
2.The meaning of capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Amendment may be found in Section 7 of the Agreement.  This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same document.

[signature page follows]

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company and the Employee have executed this Amendment to be effective as of the date first above written.

	12.
	Holidays

		
	12.1
	You are entitled to 38 days paid holiday, including statutory holidays, per calendar year. You must take statutory holidays from this entitlement when they fall on a working day. The holiday year commences  on 1st April and ends on 31st March. The Company reserves the right to set the dates of three days for the Christmas period, for which you will be required to take holiday. The dates of Company holidays and

statutory holidays will be notified to you. You must not take any holiday unless you have obtained the prior approval of your line manager to the request.

		
	12.2
	If your employment commences part way through the holiday year, your holiday entitlement during your first year of employment shall be calculated on a pro rata basis, rounded up to the nearest whole day.

		
	12.3
	If for any reason you do not take all of your holiday entitlement in any holiday year, you will not be entitled to carry over your unused holiday entitlement into a subsequent holiday year and you will not be entitled to any payment in lieu.

		
	12.4
	On termination of your employment you will be entitled to be paid in lieu of accrued but untaken holiday save that, where such termination is pursuant to clause 14.2 such accrued but untaken holiday shall be based on your minimum holiday entitlement under the Working Time Regulations. If you have taken more holiday than your accrued entitlement at the date of termination of your employment, the Company shall be entitled to deduct the appropriate amount from any payments due to you. The amount of any payment in lieu or deduction for the purposes of this clause shall be calculated on the basis that each day of paid holiday is equal to 1/260 of your annual basic salary.

		
	12.5
	If you have received annual holiday pay and then become sick or injured, you will be considered to be on holiday until the end of the holiday period for which you have been paid.  An employee cannot  receive both holiday pay and sick pay for the same period.

	13.
	Sickness, Absence and Sick Pay

	13.2
	If the absence is due to sickness or injury and lasts for 7 calendar days or less you must complete a self-certification form which will be provided to you by the Company.

		
	13.3
	If the absence is due to sickness or injury and lasts for more than 7 calendar days you will be required to produce a medical certificate signed by your doctor stating the reason for absence by no later than the 8th calendar day of illness.

	13.4
	Provided you comply with and satisfy the Company's sick pay requirements and conditions, you will be eligible for sick pay comprising your normal basic salary for 240 days in any 12 month rolling period ("Company Sick Pay").

		
	13.5
	The maximum amount of Company Sick Pay payable if you are absent from work because of sickness  or injury for a period during any rolling 12 month period is 240 days at your basic rate of pay.

		
	13.6

In order to be entitled to SSP you must meet all of the relevant statutory requirements in force from time to time. For SSP purposes, your qualifying days will be Monday to  Friday inclusive. If you are not entitled to Company Sick Pay or once your Company Sick Pay entitlement is exhausted, provided you meet the statutory requirements, the Company will pay you any SSP you are entitled to.

		
	13.8
	Sickness benefit is not an entitlement to receive Company Sick Pay; all payment is at the discretion of the Company and in accordance with rules set out in the employee handbook.

	13.9
	Any statement made by you on your behalf or any document produced by you relating to your absence from work due to sickness or injury which the Company reasonably believes to be untrue and or misleading or to have been falsified will be treated as gross misconduct and may result in your summary dismissal.

		
	13.10
	You agree to repay the Company on request such sums as you may receive by way of sick pay if you recover compensation and/or damages from any third party including the Company as a consequence  of your suffering illness and/or injury in respect of which sick pay was paid by the Company and you further agree for the purposes of this clause to disclose immediately to the Company all details relating to the payment of such compensation and/or damages

		
	13.11
	If you witness or are involved in an accident at work involving personal injury, whether to you, a colleague or a member of the public, however minor, you must report all relevant details to your manager as soon as possible.

		
	13.12
	You may at the Company's expense be required during the course of your employment to attend a medical practitioner or clinic nominated by the Company for the purpose of a medical examination to help determine your fitness for continued employment and you shall undergo any tests and  examinations reasonably required by the said medical practitioner or clinic and shall authorise  disclosure of and co-operate in ensuring the prompt delivery of any resulting report to the Company.

		
	13.13
	Where you are unable to discharge your duties or are affected by an infirmity rendering you unsuitable  to discharge your duties for a minimum period of 12 weeks, the Company may terminate your employment on grounds of capability.
