Now, therefore, in consideration of the

		3.	Duties. As President and Chief Executive Officer of Employer and Holdings, Employee
shall be responsible for, among other things (i) oversight of portfolio companies, (ii) performing duties regarding potential acquisitions
and dispositions of businesses and assets and with respect to financing activities undertaken from time to time, (iii) providing
his expertise in connection with the current and future business activities of Employer and members of the Icahn Group (as defined

At any time following the

		5.	Other Matters. Employee agrees that he will not initiate in any discussions or seek new employment during the

or (iv) by the action of Employee such as resignation or retirement), Employee shall be entitled to receive any Base Salary earned
for periods prior to the cessation of his employment and not yet paid through the date of cessation of employment as well as any
accrued paid time off or other accrued health or welfare benefits.

 

		(c)	Termination Without Cause/Termination for Good Reason. In the event of the cessation of
Employee’s employment under this Agreement due to the employment of Employee being terminated by Employer without Cause or

prior written notice to Employer. In the event of any resignation by the Employee (other than a termination by Employee for Good
Reason in accordance with Section 7(a) above), Employee shall forfeit any unpaid Bonus amounts.

 

		8.	Representations and Warranties. Employee represents as of the Execution Date as follows:

 

		(a)	To the best of his knowledge, and except for matters that Employer is aware of, he is not a party
to, or involved in, or under investigation in, any pending or threatened litigation, proceeding or investigation of any governmental

this Agreement.

 

    	 	4	 

     

    

 

		(b)	Employee has never been suspended, censured or otherwise subjected to any disciplinary action or
other proceeding by any State, other governmental entities, agencies or self-regulatory organizations.

anyone other than the Designated Entities and those designated by Employer, except to the extent compelled pursuant to the order
of a court or other body having jurisdiction over such matter or based upon the advice of his counsel that such disclosure is legally
required; provided, however, that Employee will assist the Designated Entities, at their sole cost and expense, in attempting to
obtain a protective order, other appropriate remedy or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such
information so disclosed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

without limitation, executing and delivering any confirmatory assignments, documents, or instruments requested by the Designated
Entities) to vest title to any such Invention in any such person and to enable such person and the Designated Entities, to secure
and maintain domestic and/or foreign patents or any other rights for such Inventions.

 

Without limiting anything contained
above, Employee agrees and acknowledges that all personal and not otherwise public information about the Designated Entities, including,
without limitation, their respective investments, investors, transactions, historical performance, or otherwise regarding or concerning
Carl Icahn, Mr. Icahn’s family and employees of the Designated Entities, shall constitute Confidential Information for purposes

journalists, bloggers, gossip columnists, producers, directors, script writers, media personalities, and the like, in any and all
media or communication methods, any Confidential Information.

 

In furtherance of the foregoing,
the Employee agrees that following the cessation of his employment hereunder, the sole and only statements he will make about or
concerning any or all of: Mr. Icahn, his family members and the Designated Entities, or any of the respective Affiliates of any
of the foregoing, is to acknowledge that he is or was employed by Employer; provided that, Employee may also disclose the
titles and responsibilities applicable to his employment hereunder, if he has complied with Sections 5 and 11 and such resignation
