Dear John:

Re:  Termination Employment

As discussed today, your employment with Prairie Mines & Royalty ULC and its related corporations (the “Company”) will be terminated effective immediately (“Date of Termination”).

You will be paid your regular pay up to and including the Date of Termination and your accrued but unused vacation, subject to statutory deductions, in accordance with Company payroll practices. Your Record of Employment will be issued and provided to you shortly.

In order to assist you in transitioning to alternate employment, the Company is prepared to provide you with the following without prejudice package. The details of our offer are outlined below.  In order to be eligible for this package, you will be required to sign the enclosed Full and Final Release (the “Release”).  Acceptance of this package is also contingent upon your express agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions contained herein.

Severance Offer

In lieu of notice, and in full satisfaction of all obligations of the Company to you (whether arising out of statute, common law, equity, contract or otherwise), the Company is prepared to pay you the amount of CDN$543,033.00, less applicable statutory deductions (the “Severance Offer”).  The Severance Offer includes a provision for loss of benefits.

The Severance Offer will be paid to you in in bi-weekly installments of $20,828.77, less statutory deductions (the “Severance Payments”), with payments to commence on November 9, 2017. The Severance Payments will continue until the earlier of:

		
	i.
	November 09, 2018 (the “Last Payment Date”), on which you will receive a final deposit in the amount of $1,485.01, or 

		
	ii.
	The date on which the Employee obtains alternative employment, of or for, employment equal to or greater than seventy five percent (75%) of the annual base salary the 

employee received from the Employer; which the Parties agree was $507,000 per annum. The seventy five percent (75%) threshold will be applicable to the new base salary and any guaranteed bonus.  The Employee will forthwith provide written confirmation of such employment to the Employer, at which time the Employer shall pay fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding Severance Payment in a lump sum payment (less required deductions).

Please note that the Severance Offer is inclusive of the four (4) weeks of termination notice to which you are entitled under the Employment Standards Code (Alberta) and which will be paid in accordance with the provisions thereof. 

The Employer shall pay the Employee, in consideration of the Employee entering into this Agreement and agreeing to the covenants contained herein and the execution of a full and final Release attached hereto, the following amounts in addition to the Severance Payment set out above: 

		
	i.
	Upon execution of this Agreement, the Employee’s Restricted Stock Unit (“RSU”)  and Cash Unit (“CU”) grant entitlements calculated on a time based formula, shall vest immediately and shall be payable (less applicable withholdings and deductions) as soon as possible after the  Execution date. For better clarity, the Employee is entitled to RSU & CU grants that are time based for the years 2015 and 2016. 

		
	ii.
	Upon execution of this Agreement, the Employee’s RSU grant entitlement calculated on a performance based formula, shall vest immediately and shall be payable on the completion of the performance period, three (3) years after each grant. The Employee shall pay the Employee’s RSU grant entitlement forthwith following the completion of the performance period. For better clarity, the Employees 2015 RSU grant entitlement will become payable in April 2018, and the Employee’s 2016 RSU Grant entitlement will become payable in April 2019 (provided the Company achieves its performance goals in each of the foregoing years in accordance with the terms of the RSU Plan documents).

Benefits and Health Insurance

Please be advised that all regular benefits, including extended health and dental coverage, accidental death and dismemberment insurance, short and long term disability insurance terminate effective Date of Termination.
