EX-10(CB) FORM OF EXEC DEFERRED COMP PLAN

 

Exhibit No. 10(CB)

The Progressive Corporation

Executive Deferred Compensation Plan

Time-Based Restricted Stock Deferral Agreement

THIS DEFERRAL AGREEMENT is entered into pursuant to the provisions of The Progressive
Corporation Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (“Plan”). All capitalized terms in this Agreement
shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan.

1. Deferral Elections. I hereby elect to defer receipt of all Time-Based Restricted Stock Awards
granted to me in 2006 under The Progressive Corporation 2003 Incentive Plan. This election shall
become effective as of the date the restrictions applicable to such Awards (or portion thereof)
expire and shall not apply to any Award (or portion thereof) that fails to vest free of all
restrictions.

2. Fixed Deferral Period. (The Plan gives you the option of electing a Fixed Deferral Period. If
you elect a Fixed Deferral Period, the balance of your Deferral Account established pursuant to
this Agreement will be distributed to you within 30 days after the end of the Fixed Deferral
Period, or, if earlier, the date you die or incur a Termination of Employment or the date a Change
in Control occurs. If you do not elect a Fixed Deferral Period, your Account will be distributed
within 30 days after the earlier of the date you die or incur a Termination of Employment or the
date a Change in Control occurs.) However,
for certain executives, distributions due to Termination of Employment will not be made until six
months after the employment termination date.

Please select one of the following:

	 	•	 	I wish to elect a Fixed Deferral Period.
	 
	 	•	 	I do not wish to elect a Fixed Deferral Period.

	 	 	I elect a fixed Deferral Period ending on
[    ]

(*Must be a date at least 3 years after the end of the calendar year in which the Restricted
Stock Award becomes fully vested. For example, if a Time-Based Restricted Stock Award vests in
three equal installments in 2009, 2010 and 2011, you must select a date at least 3 years after
the end of the calendar year in which the last installment vests (in this case, no earlier then –
01/01/2015).

3. Method of Distribution. I hereby elect that any distribution of the balance of the Deferral
Account established pursuant to this Agreement made on account of Termination of Employment or
expiration of a Fixed Deferral Period be paid as follows: (Select one)

	 	•	 	Single Lump Sum payment
	 
	 	•	 	Three Annual Installments
	 
	 	•	 	Five Annual Installments
	 
	 	•	 	Ten Annual Installments

I
understand that Plan distributions made for reasons other than Termination of Employment or
expiration of a Fixed Deferral Period will be made in a single lump sum payment, unless the Plan
provides otherwise. I understand that I may change the method of distribution elected above only
if and to the extent permitted by the Plan.

4. Investment of Deferral Account. I understand that each amount credited to the Deferral
Account established pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be invested in The Company
Stock Fund until the day it is distributed. I also understand that this deemed investment is
merely a device used to

 

 

determine the amount payable to me under the Plan and does not provide me with any actual rights
or interests in any particular funds, securities or property of the Company, any Affiliated
Company or the Trust or in any stock of The Progressive Corporation. I also understand that my
right to receive distributions under the Plan makes me a general creditor of the Company with no
greater right or priority than any other general creditor of the Company.

5. Miscellaneous. I understand that this Agreement is subject to the terms, conditions and
limitations of the Plan, as in effect from time to time, in all respects and that, except as
expressly permitted by the Plan, all elections made in this Agreement are irrevocable. I
acknowledge that I have received, read and understand the Plan Description dated December, 2005
relating to the Plan. I agree to accept as final and binding all decisions and interpretations
of the Committee relating to the Plan, the Trust and this Agreement.

ALSO, I UNDERSTAND THAT THE PLAN IS LIKELY TO BE AMENDED IN SIGNIFICANT RESPECTS FOLLOWING MY
EXECUTION OF THIS AGREEMENT. I AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ALL SUCH AMENDMENTS AND BY ANY CHANGES SUCH
AMENDMENTS MAY REQUIRE IN THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Exhibit 10.1

EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     This Executive Employment Agreement (as may be further amended, the “Agreement”) is
effective as of December 31, 2005, by and between ATLANTIS PLASTICS, INC., a Florida corporation
(the “Company”), and ANTHONY F. BOVA (the “Executive”).

Preliminary Statements:

     A. In view of the Executive’s substantial experience, knowledge and reputation, the Board of
Directors of the Company believes it to be in the best interest of the Company to enter into this
Agreement that amends and restates that certain Executive Employment Agreement, dated December 31,
2002 (the “Old Employment Agreement”).

     B. In view of the Executive’s substantial experience, knowledge and reputation, the Board of
Directors of the Company believes it to be in the best interest of the Company to also enter into a
new Change in Control Letter Agreement that amends and restates that certain Change in Control
Letter Agreement dated as of December 31, 2002, (the “Old Change In Control Agreement”). A form of
the new Change in Control Letter Agreement is attached hereto as Attachment 1, and will be
entered into contemporaneously herewith.

     C. The Executive desires to be employed by the Company, and the Company desires to employ the
Executive, on the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth.

Agreement:

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants set forth herein, the
parties agree as follows:

1. Employment.

          (a) General. The Company hereby employs the Executive as the President and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, and the Executive hereby agrees to provide services to the
Company, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. The Old Employment Agreement
is hereby terminated and cancelled in its entirety; provided, Executive is in no way relieved of
the obligations set forth in Article 6 of the Old Employment Agreement.

          (b) Duties of Executive. During the term of this Agreement, the Executive shall serve
as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, shall diligently perform all services,
consistent with his title and position, as may be assigned to him by the Board of Directors of the
Company (the “Board”) or the Chairman of the Board, and shall exercise such power and authority as
may from time to time be delegated to him by the Board or the Chairman of the Board. The Executive
shall devote his full business time and attention to the business and affairs of the Company,
render such services to the best of his ability, and use his best efforts to promote the interests
of the Company.

 

 

          (c) Place of Performance. In connection with the employment of the Executive by the
Company hereunder, the Executive shall perform his duties and obligations hereunder primarily from
the Company’s offices located in Atlanta, Georgia, except for required travel on the Company’s
business.

     2. Term.

          (a) Initial Term. The term of the employment of the Executive hereunder shall be for
a period of three years commencing on the effective date hereof and expiring on December 31, 2008
(the “Initial Term”), unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms and conditions
hereof.

          (b) Renewal Term. The employment of the Executive hereunder may be renewed and
extended for such period or periods as may be mutually agreed to by the Company (each such period,
a “Renewal Term”) and the Executive in a written supplement to this Agreement signed by the
Executive and the Company (a “Written Supplement”). If this Agreement is not so renewed
and extended prior to the expiration of the Initial Term, the employment of the Executive hereunder
shall automatically terminate upon the expiration of the Initial Term.

     3. Compensation.

          (a) Base Salary. As compensation for all services rendered by the Executive to the
Company hereunder, the Executive shall receive a base salary at the rate of $600,000 per annum (the
“Base Salary”) during the term of his employment hereunder, which shall be payable in
installments consistent with the Company’s normal payroll schedule, subject to applicable
withholding and other taxes. Commencing on the first anniversary date of this Agreement, the Base
Salary shall be increased annually on each February 1 during the term of the Executive’s employment
hereunder to reflect any increase from the previous year in the Consumer Price Index (all urban
wage earners) for the Atlanta, Georgia metropolitan area. If the term of this Agreement shall be
renewed and extended as provided in Section 2.2 hereof, then during such renewal term the Executive
shall be paid a Base Salary as set forth in the Written Supplement.

          (b) Incentive Compensation. In addition to the Base Salary, during the fiscal year
2006, the Executive shall be entitled to receive incentive compensation in accordance with the
provisions set forth on Attachment 2 hereto (the “Incentive Compensation”). During
fiscal year(s) 2007 and 2008 and if the term of this Agreement shall be renewed and extended as
provided in Section 2.2 hereof, then
during such periods, the Executive shall be paid Incentive Compensation as determined by the
Board.

     4. Expense Reimbursement and Other Benefits.

          (a) Reimbursable Expenses. During the term of the Executive’s employment hereunder,
the Company, upon the submission of proper substantiation by the Executive, shall reimburse the
Executive for all reasonable expenses actually and necessarily paid or incurred by him in the
course of and pursuant to the business of the Company.

          (b) Other Benefits. During the term of the Executive’s employment hereunder, the
Executive shall be entitled to participate in all medical and hospitalization, group life
insurance,

 

 

and any and all other fringe benefit plans as are presently and hereinafter provided by
the Company to its executives. The Executive shall be entitled to four weeks of vacation annually;
provided, however, that in no event may a vacation be taken at a time when to do so could, in the
reasonable judgment of the Board or the Chairman of the Board, materially adversely affect the
business of the Company.

          (c) Working Facilities. During the term of the Executive’s employment hereunder, the
Company shall furnish the Executive with an office, secretarial help and such other facilities and
services suitable to his position and adequate for the performance of his duties hereunder.

          (d) Automobile. Subject to the Executives continued employment hereunder, on or about
February 1, 2007, the Company shall, upon request of the Executive, make a lump-sum compensatory
payment to the Executive, in the amount of $50,000, in connection with the Executive’s purchase of
an automobile to be used by him in connection with the business of the Company and the performance
of his duties hereunder. Subject to the Executives continued employment hereunder and assuming
this Agreement has been renewed pursuant to Section 2.2, on or about February 1, 2010, the Company
shall, upon the request of the Executive, make a lump-sum compensatory payment to the Executive, in
the amount of $50,000, in connection with the Executive’s purchase of an automobile to be used by
him in connection with the business of the Company and the performance of his duties hereunder.
The Executive shall be responsible for the payment of all repair, maintenance, insurance, fuel, oil
and other operating expenses in connection with the use of such automobile. Upon submission of
appropriate substantiation, the Executive shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Company, at
the standard mileage rate in effect from time to time under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, for use of the automobile in accordance with the rules relating to the reimbursement for
travel use set forth in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

     5. Termination.

          (a) Termination for Cause. The Company shall at all times have the right, upon written notice to the Executive, to
terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder, for cause. For purposes of this Agreement, the term
“cause” shall mean (a) a willful breach by the Executive of any of the material terms or provisions
of this Agreement which is not cured within 10 days after notice from the Company to the Executive
(which notice shall specify in reasonable detail the alleged breach), (b) the Executive’s
conviction of a felony involving moral turpitude, (c) commission by the Executive of an act or acts
involving fraud, embezzlement, misappropriation, theft or dishonesty against the property or
personnel of the Company, (d) a willful breach by the Executive of his fiduciary duty to the
Company which either results in material damage to the Company or is not cured within 10 days after
notice from the Company to the Executive (which notice shall specify in reasonable detail the
alleged breach), or (e) willful or reckless conduct by the Executive which the Board in good faith
determines is likely to have a material adverse effect on the business, assets, properties, results
of operations, financial condition or prospects of the Company. Upon any termination pursuant to
this Section 5.1, the Executive shall be entitled to be paid his Base Salary to the date of
termination and the Company shall have no further liability hereunder (other than for reimbursement
for reasonable business expenses incurred prior to the date of termination, subject, however to the
provisions of Section 4.1). Any termination pursuant to this Section 5.1 shall be deemed to
constitute a termination of the Executive’s employment for “cause”

 

 

for the purposes of any stock
options granted to him under any stock option plans maintained by the Company.

          (b) Disability. The Company shall at all times have the right, upon written notice to
the Executive, to terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder, if the Executive shall, as the
result of mental or physical incapacity, illness or disability, fail to perform his duties and
responsibilities provided for herein for a period of more than 90 consecutive days in any 365-day
period. In the event of any termination pursuant to this Section 5.2, the Executive shall be
entitled to be paid his Base Salary to the date of termination and the Company shall have no
further liability hereunder (other than for reimbursement for reasonable business expenses incurred
prior to the date of termination, subject, however to the provisions of Section 4.1).

          (c) Death. In the event of the death of the Executive during the term of his
employment hereunder, the Executive’s employment hereunder shall automatically be terminated and
the Company shall pay the estate of the Executive any unpaid amounts of his Base Salary to the date
of his death and the Company shall have no further liability hereunder (other than for
reimbursement for reasonable business expenses incurred prior to the date of termination).

          (d) Termination Without Cause. At any time the Company shall have the right to
terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder by written notice to the Executive; provided,
however, that, in the event of any termination pursuant to this Section 5.4, the Company shall pay
the Executive any unpaid Base Salary accrued through the effective date of termination specified in
such notice and shall pay the Executive severance payments and provide him with severance benefits
as follows:

          The Company shall pay the Executive his Base Salary, in twelve equal installments, with
the first such installment commencing on such effective date.

          For a two (2) year period after the effective date of termination, the Company shall
arrange to provide the Executive with benefits substantially similar to the benefits that
the Executive was then currently receiving (including pursuant to Section 4.4) or entitled
to receive under the Company’s life, disability, accident and group health insurance plans
or any similar plans in which the Executive was participating immediately prior to such
effective date of termination (“Welfare Benefits”) at a cost to the Executive which
shall be no greater than the cost to the Executive in effect at such effective date of
termination; provided, however, that to the extent any such coverage is prohibited by any
judicial or legislative authority, the Company shall make alternative arrangements to
provide the Executive with Welfare Benefit Plans, including, but not limited to, providing
the Executive with a payment in an amount equal to the Executive’s cost of purchasing said
Welfare Benefits. Benefits otherwise receivable by the Executive pursuant to the
immediately preceding sentence shall be reduced to the extent comparable benefits are
actually received on the Executive’s behalf during the two (2) year period following the
Executive’s termination, and such benefits actually received by the Executive shall be
reported to the Company. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 5.4(b), in no
event will the Company be obligated to pay a greater annual amount for the Welfare Benefits
during such two (2) year period than it paid for such Welfare Benefits in the last year of
the Executives employment hereunder.

 

 

     The Company shall have no further liability to the Executive hereunder (other than for
reimbursement for reasonable business expenses incurred prior to the date of termination, subject,
however, to the provisions of Section 4.1).

          (e) Non-renewal. In the event that the Executive’s employment expires hereunder
because Company fails to offer to renew and extend the Executive’s employment for at least an
additional year beyond the expiration of the Initial Term or any applicable Renewal Term, then the
Company shall pay the Executive severance payments and provide him with severance benefits as
follows:

          The Company shall pay the Executive his Base Salary, in twelve equal installments, with
the first such installment commencing on such effective date.

          For a two (2) year period after the expiration of the Initial Term or applicable
Renewal Term, the Company shall arrange to provide the Executive with Welfare Benefits (as
defined in Section 5.4) at a cost to the Executive which shall be no greater than the cost
to the Executive in effect at such effective date of termination; provided, however, that to
the extent any such coverage is prohibited by any judicial or legislative authority, the
Company shall make alternative arrangements to provide the Executive with Welfare Benefit
Plans, including, but not limited to, providing the Executive with a payment in an amount
equal to the Executive’s cost of purchasing said Welfare Benefits. Benefits otherwise
receivable by the Executive pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be reduced
to the extent comparable benefits are actually received on the Executive’s behalf during the
two (2) year period following the Executive’s termination, and such benefits actually
received by the Executive shall be reported to the Company. Notwithstanding anything set
forth in this Section 5.5(b), in no event will the Company be obligated to pay a greater
annual amount for the Welfare Benefits during such two (2) year period than it paid for such
Welfare Benefits in the last year of the Executives employment hereunder.

     The Company shall have no further liability to the Executive hereunder (other than for
reimbursement for reasonable business expenses incurred prior to the date of termination, subject,
however, to the provisions of Section 4.1).

          (f) Change in Control Letter Agreement. Notwithstanding anything else in this
Agreement, in the event the Executive is entitled to receive Severance Payments (as defined in the
new Change in Control Letter Agreement) under the Change in Control Letter Agreement, the Executive
will not be entitled to receive any of the payments or benefits under this Section 5.

     6. Restrictive Covenants.

          (a) Non-competition. While employed by the Company and during the Non-competition
Period (as hereinafter defined), the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, engage in or have
any interest in any sole proprietorship, partnership, corporation or business or any other person
or entity (whether as an employee, officer, director, partner, agent, security holder, creditor,
consultant or otherwise) that directly or indirectly is engaged in the business of the Company or
its subsidiaries in the contiguous 48 states of the United States; provided, however, that (i)
nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent the Executive from owning an interest in the equity or
debt securities of the Company, and (ii) nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent the Executive
from acquiring through market purchases and owning, solely as an investment, less than two percent
of

 

 

the equity securities of any class of any issuer whose shares are registered under Section 12(b)
or 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are listed or admitted for trading
on any United States national securities exchange or are quoted on the National Association of
Securities Dealers Automated Quotations System, or any similar system of automated dissemination of
quotations of securities prices in common use, so long as neither of them is a member of any
“control group” (within the meaning of the rules and regulations of the United States Securities
and Exchange Commission) of any such issuer. For purposes of this Section 6.1, the term
“Non-competition Period” shall mean (a) in the event the Executive’s employment is terminated
pursuant to Sections 5.4 or 5.5, the period beginning on the effective date of such termination and
ending on date on which all severance payments payable pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b) thereof
have been paid in full, and (b) in the event the Executive’s employment hereunder is terminated for
any other reason, a period of one year following the date his employment is terminated.

          (b) Nondisclosure. Except as expressly permitted by the Company or in connection with
the performance of his duties hereunder, the Executive shall not divulge, communicate, use to the
detriment of the Company or for the benefit of any other person or persons, or misuse in any way,
any confidential information pertaining to the business of the Company or its subsidiaries. Any
confidential information or data heretofore or hereafter acquired by the Executive with respect to
the business of the Company and its subsidiaries (which shall include, but not be limited to,
information concerning their respective financial condition, prospects, customers, sources of
leads, methods of doing business, and the manner of design, manufacture, importation, marketing and
distribution of their respective products) shall be deemed a valuable, special and unique asset of
the Company that is received by the Executive in confidence and as a fiduciary, and the Executive
shall remain a fiduciary to the Company and its subsidiaries with respect to all of such
information. Notwithstanding any provision hereof which may be to the contrary, confidential
information shall not include (a) information that is or becomes generally available to the public
other than as a result of a disclosure by the Executive, or (b) information lawfully acquired by
the Executive from sources other than the Company or its affiliates who are not bound by any
agreement of confidentiality.

          (c) Nonsolicitation of Employees and Customers. While employed by the Company and for
a period of two years following the date his employment is terminated (or not renewed) hereunder,
the Executive shall not, directly or indirectly, for himself or for any other person, firm,
corporation, partnership, association or other entity, (a) attempt to employ or enter into any
contractual arrangement with any employee or former employee of the Company or its subsidiaries,
unless such employee or former employee has not been employed by the Company or a subsidiary of the
Company for a period in excess of six months, or (b) call on or solicit any of the actual or
targeted prospective customers or clients of the Company or its subsidiaries, nor shall the
Executive make known the names and addresses of such customers or any information relating in any
manner to the trade or business relationships of the Company or its subsidiaries with such
customers.

          (d) Books and Records. All books, records, and accounts relating in any manner to the
customers or clients of the Company and its subsidiaries, whether prepared by the Executive or
otherwise coming into the Executive’s possession, together with any Company credit or charge cards,
door or file keys, access cards to Company properties, computer access codes, files, notes,
manuals, memoranda, prints, drawings, formulations, records, software and any other Company
property related to the operation of the business of the Company and its subsidiaries, shall be the
exclusive property of the Company and shall be returned immediately to the Company on

 

 

termination
of the Executive’s employment hereunder or on the Company’s request at any time. The Executive
shall not retain copies, extracts or compilations of any such books, records, accounts or other
items.

     7. Injunction. It is recognized and hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto that a
breach by the Executive of any of the covenants contained in Section 6 of this Agreement will cause
irreparable harm and damage to the Company and its subsidiaries, the monetary amount of which may
be virtually impossible to ascertain. As a result, the Executive recognizes and hereby acknowledges
that the Company shall be entitled to an injunction from any court of competent jurisdiction
enjoining and restraining any violation of any or all of the covenants contained in Section 6 of
this Agreement by the Executive or any of his affiliates, associates, partners or agents, either
directly or indirectly, and that such right to injunction shall be cumulative and in addition to
whatever other remedies the Company may possess.

     8. Assignment. Any or all of the rights and interests of the Company hereunder (i)
may be assigned to any purchaser of substantially all of the assets of the Company, and (ii) may be
assigned as a matter of law to the surviving entity in any merger of the Company; provided,
however, that in any or all such events the Company shall not be released or discharged from its
obligations hereunder. The
Executive shall not delegate his employment obligations hereunder, or any portion thereof, to
any other person.

     9. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the internal laws of the State of Florida.

     10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the
parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements,
understandings and arrangements, both oral and written, between the parties hereto with respect to
such subject matter. The parties hereto hereby agree that any and all prior agreements,
understandings and arrangements for the provision of services by the Executive to the Company and
the compensation of the Executive in any form shall be deemed terminated and of no further force or
effect. This Agreement may not be modified in any way unless by a written instrument signed by each
of the parties hereto.

     11. Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in
writing and shall be given by personal delivery, facsimile transmission, Federal Express (or other
equivalent courier service) or by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested (a) if to the Company, c/o Trivest Partners, L.P. at 2665 South Bayshore Drive, Eighth
Floor, Miami, Florida 33133, Attention: David Gershman, Esq., and (b) if to the Executive, to his
address as reflected on the payroll records of the Company, or to such other addresses as either
party hereto may from time to time give notice of to the other. Notice by registered or certified
mail will be effective three days after deposit in the United States mail. Notice by any other
permitted means will be effective upon receipt.

     12. Benefits; Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be for the benefit of and binding
upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, personal representatives, legal
representatives, successors and, where applicable, assigns, including, without limitation, any
successor to the Company, whether by merger, consolidation, sale of stock, sale of assets or
otherwise.

 

 

     13. Severability. The invalidity of any one or more of the words, phrases, sentences,
clauses or sections contained in this Agreement shall not affect the enforceability of the
remaining portions of this Agreement or any part thereof, all of which are inserted conditionally
on their being valid in law, and, in the event that any one or more of the words, phrases,
sentences, clauses or sections contained in this Agreement shall be declared invalid, this
Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid word or words, phrase or phrases, sentence or
sentences, clause or clauses, or section or sections had not been inserted. If such invalidity is
caused by length of time or size of area, or both, the otherwise invalid provision will be
considered to be reduced to a period or area which would cure such invalidity.

     14. Waivers. The waiver by either party hereto of a breach or violation of any term or provision of this
Agreement shall not operate nor be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation.

     15. Damages. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to prevent any party hereto
from seeking and recovering from the other damages sustained by either or both of them as a result
of its or his breach of any term or provision of this Agreement. In the event that either party
hereto brings suit for the collection of any damages resulting from, or for the injunction of any
action constituting, a breach of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, then the
prevailing party shall pay all reasonable costs, fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and
expenses of the non-prevailing party.

     16. Section Headings. The section headings contained in this Agreement are for
reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this
Agreement.

     17. No Third Party Beneficiary. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement is
intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon or give any person other than the parties hereto
and their respective heirs, personal representatives, legal representatives, successors and
assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement
